THE LOST WORLD
1) Beached Queenie
In your home, you're so alone, your friends have gone
But you don't care about them anymore, cos you've got so much more to do
Half past three, a cup of tea, biscuits too
The sour grapes inside of you are finding their way through
Sunning yourself do the beach, the adulation you crave is out of reach
Writing your poisoned pen views, I'm sorry we're not lo-fi enough for you
You were young, you had your fun, but you're afraid of all the enemies
That you have made on your way to becoming you
Your jealousy of people like me, does no good, for people like you
Is your head made of wood?, can't you see you're unpopular?
Sunning yourself do the beach, the adulation you crave is out of reach
Writing your poisoned pen views, I'm sorry we're not lo-fi enough for you
And as a
boy you always tried to bring me down
You were so color blind, you swore that red was brown
You'd argue black was white, thought you were right, so why?
Not so young, you're no fun, you're just like blue meanie
And now we christen you a beached queenie
2) Pathetically Devoted To You
I need something, I need something to take away the pain
I need someone, I need someone like my mum again
I need someone, I need someone to take good care of me
I need a change, I need a change, a change of scenery
I need my daily intake, give it to me for Christ's sake
I'm like a garden weed, you're like a drug, except you breathe
I breathe for you.
3) Family Man
Bad to worse, it won't get any better
Just can't face it, should I, could I let her know
I've got nowhere to go
It's not the same, things aren't the same
All alone without a home, not got a place to call your own
Drinking gin in a cardboard box, a family man without a family
Cos his marriage in on the rocks
It's not the same, you just don't care
4) First thing in the morning
You didn't sleep last night, you're not a pretty sight
And you know that you're in trouble from now on
You get outside the door, house keys left on the floor
In your bedroom, and you realise you're locked out
Oh-oh it's gonna be one of those days
Completely out of luck, you've lost that Midas touch
Cos everything you do just gets messed up
You’ve got a heavy head, you'd best go straight to bed
Cos it's just a day when everything goes wrong
If I was you I wouldn't get up tomorrow
5) Prince Valium
Prince valium, one in a million
Whenever I see you around, you're either coming up or down
Prince valium, no conversation, mind too slow, the wind'll blow you away
Take a trip down memory lane, sinking now nothing stays the same
Everyday a different lie, as your life is passing you by
Eyes sunk into your head, vacant bulbs now glowing red
Tomorrow. Same as today, and your life keeps slipping away
Prince valium, one in a million
Got no sense of space or time, you don't know, where to draw the line
Prince valium, blind, deaf and dumb, you've slowed it down to a halt
Just as long as it's not your fault
6) How?
How's your life? All the things you never did
At the time, thought you'd get a second chance
Though you never were accepted, it's just what you expected
How's your life? Don't regret a single thing
All was fine, through the hallways of your mind
‘Til I stopped believing in you
And the things I thought that you'd do
How's your life? Are you feeling incomplete?
Recall the time when ambition was your style
Where's the man I used to know?
Where did all the fire go?
7) You're Back Again
You've done it once and so you'll do it again
It's become clear you've fallen in love with man
Getting called names and you don't mind a bit
I don't know what you do when I don't know how you do it
Now you're on your back again
Isn't it fun, all said and all done
You don't even know hit name
You'll forget him by tomorrow evening, so there
You never did these stupid things before
Isn't it strange how no-one likes you anymore
Digging yourself into a monstrous hole
I think it's high time you began to take control
Now that I am gone for good, nothing to see, well don't look at me
You miss me and so you should, you got your way now there's nothing to say
So there
8) Daydream Believer (Monkees)
Oh, I could hide beneath the wings of the bluebird as she sings
The six o' clock alarm would never ring
But it rings and I rise
Wipe the sleep out of my eyes
My shaving razors cold and it stings
Cheer up, sleepy jean
Oh, what can it mean
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen
You once thought of me as a white knight on a steed
Now you see how happy I can be
Oh, and our good times starts and end
Without dollar one to spend
But how much, baby, do we really need
Cheer up, sleepy jean
Oh, what can it mean
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen
Cheer up, sleepy jean
Oh, what can it mean
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen
Cheer up, sleepy jean
Oh, what can it mean
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen
9) Solitudinational
Sitting alone, waiting for you to phone
But I know it's not going to happen
Solitudinational, I’m so alone
What the hell is going on? Here and now, everyday
Solitudinational, we're facing the wrong way
That's all it is
What was the reason for my birth?
What the hell am I doing on this earth?
I don't know why I was born
I'm just not sure anymore
I'm uncertain, so pull back the curtains
I'm full of doubt and I’ve got to get out
No-one cares all the would is in pairs
You should learn to share, it's all so damn unfair
