Whatever happened to my Catherine
Whatever happened to that cool girl
Whatever happened to the girl who changed my life

She comes in beauty like the night
She comes in beauty, like the night
Scarlet and black, beneath the pale moonlight
A lipstick mark upon a cheek so white
She comes in beauty, like the night
She comes in beauty, like the day
Crimson and white, when she comes out to play
Stilleto style, she's on her way
She comes in beauty, like the day
Scarlet and black, beneath the pale moonlight
A lipstick mark upon a cheek so white
She comes in beauty, like the night
She comes in beauty, like the day
Crimson and white, when she comes out to play
Stilleto style, she's on her way
She comes in beauty, like the day

News of the World
I live I die
I scream I cry
This is the News of the World
Switch back, heart attack
You turn it back
But still you keep on crying, lying, you're so self denying
Times change, they rearrange,
it's nothing strange
It's just a part of dying, dying, you're so death defying
I scream I cry
This is the News of the World
Switch back, heart attack
You turn it back
But still you keep on crying, lying, you're so self denying
Times change, they rearrange,
it's nothing strange
It's just a part of dying, dying, you're so death defying
The Northern Wind
It's in your possession
All you want and all you need
Little baby won't you come to me
Let me tell you
Everything that you wanna know
And let me make it so
I am the northern wind
Fighting for your life when your burning up with strife
I am the northern wind
oh - ho - ho
All you want and all you need
Little baby won't you come to me
Let me tell you
Everything that you wanna know
And let me make it so
I am the northern wind
Fighting for your life when your burning up with strife
I am the northern wind
oh - ho - ho
Fire and Water
Fire and Water
Screwed the mother and I screwed the daughter
Fire and Water
Fire and Water
Knew I shouldn't but I thought I oughta
Fire and Water
I can't believe this is happening to me
God is playing all his tricks on me
No surprise, no bitter end
Sometimes think I'm going right round the bend
Screwed the mother and I screwed the daughter
Fire and Water
Fire and Water
Knew I shouldn't but I thought I oughta
Fire and Water
I can't believe this is happening to me
God is playing all his tricks on me
No surprise, no bitter end
Sometimes think I'm going right round the bend
Summer's Dream
I read the news today
What could I say about it?
But the man with the plan has let it go to seed.
He's in the army now
Another jumped up major with his eyes on the prize
Where did it all go wrong?
Summer's dream like summer's gone
It's such a shame but it's all over
The autumn leaves are down
With winter yet to come
Summer's dream like summer's gone
What could I say about it?
But the man with the plan has let it go to seed.
He's in the army now
Another jumped up major with his eyes on the prize
Where did it all go wrong?
Summer's dream like summer's gone
It's such a shame but it's all over
The autumn leaves are down
With winter yet to come
Summer's dream like summer's gone
Kiss and Tell
Would you kiss and tell?
You might as well.
Your life's a hell
It's such a sell
You bring it on back to me now, baby, baby
You bring it on back to me
Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell...
You got the cash
you're not so flash
A nasty rash
from last night's bash
You bring it on back to me now, baby, baby
You bring it on back to me
Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell...
The TV's on
You're so far gone
You've lived on one
For far too long
You bring it on back to me now, baby, baby
You bring it on back to me
Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell...
You might as well.
Your life's a hell
It's such a sell
You bring it on back to me now, baby, baby
You bring it on back to me
Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell...
You got the cash
you're not so flash
A nasty rash
from last night's bash
You bring it on back to me now, baby, baby
You bring it on back to me
Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell...
The TV's on
You're so far gone
You've lived on one
For far too long
You bring it on back to me now, baby, baby
You bring it on back to me
Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell, Kiss and Tell...
Dumb Ambition
I read the papers everyday, it's like they know just what to say.
I like read the evening news, it's telling me who screws who.
Thick, I'm stupid and thick, I'm not very quick, it's just how my brain works.
Dumb Ambition, Dumb Ambition, Dumb Ambition

She had the legs of a sinner
She had the legs of a sinner
She was the girl I adored
She showed me the way, the games that we played, but now my love's dead on the floor
Happy Hunting, Happy Hunting, you'll find your love dying
Happy Hunting, Happy Hunting, the truth's worth denying
She was the girl I adored

On Yer Knees
On Yer Knees
On Yer Knees
Get down on the floor and don't you ask for more.
The one-eyed madman rules the kingdom of the blind.
Blinded in the dark.
He took all the silver the money and the gold.
And gave it all away.

Whatever Happened to the Captain?
Whatever Happened to the Captain?
Whatever Happened to that Loo-oo-oo-oo-ser ?
Whatever Happened to the man who made my life a misery ?
He's long far gone
He's long far gone
He's long far gone and long far gone away.
Whatever Happened to that Loo-oo-oo-oo-ser ?
Whatever Happened to the man who made my life a misery ?
He's long far gone
He's long far gone
He's long far gone and long far gone away.
So Nervous
I get so nervous
I can't function
I'm so nervous
Twisting and a twitching
Falling in the kitchen
I can't function
I'm so nervous
Twisting and a twitching
Falling in the kitchen

Take Me On
The past is best left and forgotten
The king of rock is Johnny Rotten
Twinkle Twinkle little brat
Who do you think you're looking at?
Terry's dead and gone away
Go and join him Twinkle eh!
Take me on you bleeders
Can't find much worse than this
Take me on you bleeders
Can't find much worse than this
Soul boys come and soul boys go
Where're bastards ? I don't know
When I'm trendy, it's tit for tat
When I'm ninety, I'll go for soul
Hit a hundred, it's rock 'n' roll
Take me on you bleeders
Can't find much worse than this
Take me on you bleeders
Can't find much worse than this
The king of rock is Johnny Rotten
Twinkle Twinkle little brat
Who do you think you're looking at?
Terry's dead and gone away
Go and join him Twinkle eh!
Take me on you bleeders
Can't find much worse than this
Take me on you bleeders
Can't find much worse than this
Soul boys come and soul boys go
Where're bastards ? I don't know
When I'm trendy, it's tit for tat
When I'm ninety, I'll go for soul
Hit a hundred, it's rock 'n' roll
Take me on you bleeders
Can't find much worse than this
Take me on you bleeders
Can't find much worse than this

Oh Kristy
Oh Kristy,
I sometimes wish you never were born at all
Oh Kristy darling
As the nights grow long
I'll be always looking out
Just in case you come along
Knock on the door
And I'll come right down
I want to see your face
I just want you around
How I loved you
How I cried
How I looked for a reason
When he killed you
When you died
Your life
Such a beautiful life
And a beautiful life
Is blown away now
Your life
Such a beautiful life
And a beautiful life
Is thrown away now
Oh Kristy,
I sometimes wish you never were born at all
I sometimes wish you never were born at all
Oh Kristy darling
As the nights grow long
I'll be always looking out
Just in case you come along
Knock on the door
And I'll come right down
I want to see your face
I just want you around
How I loved you
How I cried
How I looked for a reason
When he killed you
When you died
Your life
Such a beautiful life
And a beautiful life
Is blown away now
Your life
Such a beautiful life
And a beautiful life
Is thrown away now
Oh Kristy,
I sometimes wish you never were born at all
Lies
Who started the lie that has gone on forever?
Two thousand years of lies have just gone by
God is in his heaven
Devil in his hell
Good and evil come together to weave their wicked spell
Who will next ask God to bless their bullets?
Who will start another mad crusade?
Who will live and who will die?
Who is laughing as we cry?
On and on we have to tell the lie.
Cos these lies, go on, and on, and on.....
Mary, Mary, are you still a virgin?
Or has the lord God knocked you up again?
He's a dirty old sod that mister God
I guess he never spares the rod
Another bastard left to die in pain
And these lies, go on, and on, and on.....
Two thousand years of lies have just gone by
God is in his heaven
Devil in his hell
Good and evil come together to weave their wicked spell
Who will next ask God to bless their bullets?

Get Off My Back!
I sleep all day
My prospects of a job have all just gone away
Not that I really want to have one anyway
I'd rather have to draw the dole
The money's tight
I haven't got a single thing to wear tonight
The people on the TV seem to look so right
They tell me how to live my life
Get Off My Back! Get Off My Back!Get Off My Back!
That's what I say to you who criticise my every move
Get Off My Back! Get Off My Back!Get Off My Back!
There is no hope for me today
Storybooks
The drivel they have fed us all is overcooked
Now we don't even have to take a second look
It seems we've seen it all before
All the same
On and on and on we play this silly game
I look around for someone else that I can blame
I did what I could do, did you?
