PLEASE LEAVE (SINGLE VERSION)
Single: PLEASE LEAVE (BLUE), 2000
Those things you said are getting to me
I close my eyes so I couldn't see
I'm used to all the crap you dish out
I know exactly what it's about
You didn't want to come across the sea
Dragged by your hair, it got worse you got me
Now everything is cool up until when
Accidently screw up your life again x 4
It's not that I don't want you around
But you act as if we're bringing you down
Maybe you don't have the guts to go
Maybe you just don't want me to know
Chorus
During the last Chorus Kevin sings:
You can't blame us for everything
When lives come down you'll probably leave
So pack your bags and take your time
To leave, to leave, to leave
And someday when you think of me
Remember how I was happy
Until the day I learned to see
Please leave, please leave, please leave
PUCK DEFENDER (LIVE)
Single: PLEASE LEAVE (BLUE), 2000
Verse 1:
You and me tie ourselves on to the railway
Tugging on things that catch us up
Sitting off things that fly us down the freeway
Blowing our brew from plastic cups
Chorus:
Nothing to do, (when you're) in this situation
The pilots are drunk, we're all dead
Proving we're worth, the casual observation
Proving we're worth the food we're fed
And I'm hurking up the pieces
All the pieces that I've found
And I'm picking up the pieces
Off the ground, Yeah
Verse 2:
You and me fall down onto the wrong side
Laughing at those that pushed us down
Climbing back up, we enjoy the free ride
Climbing back up but they've all gone
Chorus
Repeat Verse 1 and Chorus
INVADERS (LIVE)
Single: PLEASE LEAVE (BLUE), 2000
Verse 1:
It was in the evening, or was it afternoon
It doesn't really matter, they were in my room
No there no here to save you x3
No there not
Chorus:
One by one
They tricked me one by one
They stripped me one by one
They fixed me one by one
Invaders picked me
Verse 2:
I thought that I should go now but I just had to stay
Stick around and listen to what they had to say
No we're not going to hurt you x3
No we're not
Chorus
Change:
Ohhhh, arrggghhh, oohhh
Invaders, Invaders, Invaders, Invaders........
Ooh, I like their eyes, like buggy flies
Their purple skies, where no one dies,
Their silken hair, and what they wear
Without a care for nothing
Say that you care but you fucking don't
And you say that you care but you fucking don't
And you say that you care but you fucking don't
And you say that you care but you fucking don't
Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah...... etc.
Backing: Watch out for invaders...
SKIN (LIVE)
Single: PLEASE LEAVE (BLUE), 2000
Verse 1:
And the day that we left
I found a whole in my chest
When you said we were only friends, hanging out
What was I sposed to do, I should swallow my pride
and say it's cool, but I'm a fool, I want you....
Chorus:
I guess I always knew I would
Like you too much for my good
It gets me when I tell you this but it's true
It's so true x3
Verse 2:
And the night that we kissed
We were both pretty pissed
But I still knew how good it felt, but did you?
Now I'd do anything, to get you out from underneath my skin
Wishfull thinking, don't want to
Chorus
You......
Chorus
It's so true x2
CONGRATULATIONS (LIVE)
Single: PLEASE LEAVE (BLUE), 2000
He's coming round tonight
Catching the train out
Started work today
It's no fun but it pays
One thing that you're sure of
He won't ever let you down
S'posed to leave at eight
But the sitters late
Times run out to go
To that Even show
One thing that you're sure of
He won't ever let you down
He could never hurt you
But it's so much to get involved
I drowned in glory to tell this story
Of self denial and choices final
He was there for you
When your ex shot through
But can you really count
On him sticking round?
One thing that you're sure of
He won't ever let you down
He could never hurt you
But it's so much to get involved
I drowned in glory to tell this story
Of self denial and choices final
Can't change what happened my youths been shattered
Now can I really bring him down with me
He can't play father to your son
When he's eighteen years young!
I drowned in glory to tell this story
Of self denial and choices final
Can't change what happened my youth's been shattered
Now can I really bring him down with me.
