When you reach number ten And think the struggle ends But it ain't the end It's only a trend You have to unbend 'Cause it's only a trend Don't lose all your friends Don't make heroes end When you reach number eight it ain't no pearly gate 'Cause it won't satiate your growing appetite You can ply your trade and push your crusade Emancipate or indoctrinate, but the Traps are all laid for and honest crusade Your old values will fade as you struggle to make the grade As you struggle to make the grade (As you struggle to make the grade) (You neededn't bother) When you hit number four you're almost through the door But there's a whole lot more you just can't ignore The telephone's sure, you know the score But don't let this uproar dissipate your encore It's written in the news how you paid your dues But you've no excuse for the people you abuse When you reach number one you can beat your drum You can sack your roadies in Birmingham When your record is platinum, you can stick it to the bath, To the wall like you've always planned It's written in the news how you paid your dues But you've no excuse for the people you abuse (ad lib to fade)Dead End Job - The Police

[It's an instrumental]Friends - A. Summers
I likes to eat my friends and make no bones about it I likes to eat my friends, I couldn't do without it Ain't a man or poet, friend, I know just how you'll taste Your limbs go sliding down my throat and never go to waste Your death, of course, will sadden me, until I grok your essence I know your life was not in vain when digestion is commencing Consider this a celebration and the deepest pact of friends And I hope that you will dine on me when I come to an end (ah....) Even friends may come to you with a new found revelation But think of it as life renewed and not their termination "To know you is to eat you" should be the code of lovers Death brings the highest act of love preserved for one another (ah....) People say that what you are is only what you eat And my friends become a part of me, oh well it's then that life's complete To know you is to eat you, the act of love supreme Each one of us inside himself can appetise the dream (ah....)

Fatal fascination for the seedy part of town Walk down the street and your head spins round Don't be seen alone without your friends at night Take a gun or a knife to the low life Don't have to be born into this society Pay for love but the hate comes free Bring enough money for the rest of your life Don't bring your wife to the low life Bringing us there to their vocation [? should be: the degredation] Always keep your back to the wall No rewards for your infatuation Low life No life at all Yeah, low life, low life In here to long to be afraid anymore You can't reach the bed so you sleep on the floor You get so stoned you think you could fly But you won't get high on the low life Low life....

My daddy's boots don't fit me 'Cause I'm bigger than him He says I make him big now I'm bigger than him You see there's nothing worth achieving All your dreams are just deceiving You've locked the doors on your good living And you told me to wait You've got me backed into a corner You're making me hate I say there's nothing worth achieving All your dreams are just deceiving [They say there's nothing worth achieving All your dreams are just deceiving] Throwing stones that are reeling From a reasonable light You muscle in when I have a party Ready to fight I say there's nothing worth achieving All your dreams are just deceiving Nothing Nothing NothingShambelle - A.

[It's an instrumental, that's how the book spells it]Visions Of The Night - Sting
Gazed into the visions of the night Seen the darkness fall I've heard a mountain fall away from sight Heard the thunder call Seen the beast I call my father Creature of the night I feel the creeping darkness close That electric light They say the meek shall inherit the earth How long will you keep it? They sow a harvest but what's it worth? There's no one left to reap it Gazed into the visions of the night Seen the darkness fall I've heard a mountain fall away from sight Heard the thunder call Seen the beast I call my father Creature of the night I feel the creeping darkness close That electric light They say the meek shall inherit the earth How long will you keep it? They sow a harvest but what's it worth?

Once upon a daydream I fell in love with you Once upon a moonbeam I gave that love to you Once upon a lifetime I knew it must be true When the months had turned us I'd have to marry you Once upon a daydream Doesn't happen anymore Once upon a moonbeam This is no place for tenderness Once her daddy found out He threw her to the floor He killed her unborn baby And kicked me from the door Once upon a nightmare I bought myself a gun I blew her daddy's brains out Now hell has just begun Once upon a daydream Doesn't happen anymore Once upon a moonbeam This is no place for sentiment (Oh....) Once upon a lifetime A lifetime filled with tears The boy would pay for his crime With all his natural years Once upon a daydream He'd make you his someday Once upon a moonbeam He'd dream his life away Once upon a daydream Doesn't happen anymore Once upon a moonbeam This is no place for miracles Once upon a daydream Once upon a daydream Once upon a daydream Once upon a day...
