Ha, I see you're still here, Billy,
Bragging how you can't go wrong.
Don't you feel a little silly?
It's just not happening for you right now.
Whatever happened about that deal,
Those second-hand cars you hoped to steal?
You blame everyone else who let you down -
Can you see yourself really going uptown?
For many a year, I did believe,
You'd packed your bags and would leave!
Billy, what have you got to brag about?
I hear it all day long from you.
I hear you chatting with your chums,
About your ambitious dreams and schemes....
Bragging how you can't go wrong.
Don't you feel a little silly?
It's just not happening for you right now.

Sorry..?
You owe me an apology!'
"I can't afford that."
'Apologies cost nothing!'
"I can't afford that."
'Apologies cost nothing!'

Attention Seeking Pussycat
When he's feeling really low,
He's not afraid to let you know!
And he is not the sort of man,
Who has an easy get-out plan.
His head is in the sand, you see,
But let his story take the lead...
When you can see he's full of rage,
You wish that you could turn the page.
Some of you have caught him wrong,
With words you said, he felt were strong!
This man will always show contempt,
For everything and everyone!
If you could see this world,
As the world appears to me,
You wouldn't be half as cross,
Wouldn't dwell...
He's not afraid to let you know!
And he is not the sort of man,
Who has an easy get-out plan.
His head is in the sand, you see,

You wish that you could turn the page.
Some of you have caught him wrong,
With words you said, he felt were strong!
This man will always show contempt,
For everything and everyone!

As the world appears to me,
You wouldn't be half as cross,
Wouldn't dwell...

Pompous Ass
So you think I'm pompous do you?
Conceited and self-satisfied perhaps,
Smug, pretentious, arrogant and rude?
Wow, that's a lot of meanings honey,
For just one little word.
Oh and you forgot to mention condescending
(By the way!)
Glad we got that one out the way; phew.
So what have I done to deserve such a label?
Not that I mind being thought of this way,
I find the association rather amusing -
Serving the notion that I am somebody;
Somebody who isn't so fragile after all,
Someone who's tough on the outside when things go...

What's The Game?
There you sit, surveying the wire, anyone you desire.
Sure, that's ok but doesn't it all catch up with you,
Doesn't it ultimately lead down a dead end road -
What are you actually offering?
What's the game?
Anyone can be good with words and minds can tune in -
Especially to vulnerability. There's nothing clever about that though.
The clever bit is hanging on to it, realising what you have is special;
Something you can value, not this silly 'I'm not the bad guy' stuff.
Sometimes we have to look within ourselves to see what's really...

Days Of Darragh
Feels like I'm heading back to the good old days of Darragh.
Back to those happy, carefree, lazy, hazy days,
When all I cared about was how you felt!
Still, I wish I could have read you then.
I was only seventeen, d'ya know what I mean?
I didn't have the maturity to handle you,
Handle you emotionally anyway!
In hindsight, it's a good job I couldn't read your mind,
'Cos I wouldn't have liked what I saw inside,
Not that I knew at the time!
Fast forward twenty seven years,
And I've got the same feeling again.
It's not about...

Little Nicky
I love sinking into your arms little Nicky,
Sinking into them is quite easy to do.
And with every step nearer to you,
I find I'm feeling not quite so blue.
Watching that estuary merge closer still,
With every mile, edging nearer until...
Towards flood plains lining my route,
To the south bank of the Thames -
I'm getting there now.
But it won't be long before I miss your embrace -
Like a wild crazy dog you cannot contain!
You have your own way of doing and getting things done,
Neither demanding or difficult,...
Sinking into them is quite easy to do.
And with every step nearer to you,
I find I'm feeling not quite so blue.
Watching that estuary merge closer still,
With every mile, edging nearer until...
Towards flood plains lining my route,
To the south bank of the Thames -
I'm getting there now.
But it won't be long before I miss your embrace -
Like a wild crazy dog you cannot contain!
You have your own way of doing and getting things done,
Neither demanding or difficult,...

Sexy Sandra
Sexy Sandra, she's so sweet,
Well built too and rather neat.
There she stands, unspoilt and slender,
She's making waves but please remember...
Sexy Sandra will turn you on!
Even though she doesn't know,
She's turning heads wherever she goes.
Sandra's so seductive too,
And may well have her eye on you.
You get me horny, that much is true!
What ya doing tonight then hun,
Fancy a stroll in the evening sun?
Mmm, you can give me what I need,
Desire and passion that's guaranteed.
Sandra's the one I've been...

At The Right Time...
When I wake in the morning, thinking of you,
Even at night I'm still feeling blue!
My love for you flies on wings of air,
And how I miss you when you're not there!
Meeting someone as special as you,
Happens once only in a lifetime.
Once in a lifetime dreams do come true,
And fate has brought me closer to you.
My life right now feels blissfully fine -
Because I've met you at the right time.
When you're troubled by life's forces,
And don't feel you have any choices -
I have seen you sad at times,
Is there something on...
Even at night I'm still feeling blue!
My love for you flies on wings of air,
And how I miss you when you're not there!
Meeting someone as special as you,
Happens once only in a lifetime.
Once in a lifetime dreams do come true,
And fate has brought me closer to you.
My life right now feels blissfully fine -
Because I've met you at the right time.
When you're troubled by life's forces,
And don't feel you have any choices -
I have seen you sad at times,
Is there something on...

What My Heart Longs To Say
I looked into the sky, saw the brightest light,
The stars in your eyes were shining so bright.
You reached out a hand, took my breath away,
As you led me from darkness into the day.
Your beauty lights up the sky at night,
And shines on the moon like a beacon of light.
Like heaven on Earth as we watch the sunrise,
I wish I could freeze this moment in time.
You feel like my angel from way up above,
But you are down here shining your love.
In unlimited joy as we plan out our days,
It's easier to find what my heart wants to say. ...

But you are down here shining your love.
In unlimited joy as we plan out our days,
It's easier to find what my heart wants to say. ...
