Soviet Snow
‘Soviet Snow’ Lyrics
One eye on the winter
Did I conjure up that cold
I’ve got friends in the far north
And should’ve had that mystery solved
Are we wide awake? Is the world aware?
Radiation over red square
Creeping on to cross roman roads
Fear of freezing in the soviet snow
One eye on the winter
Oh there’s just a hint of soviet snow
We need something to keep the chill
From freezing our own free will
We’re teasing at war like children
Love is the one solution
Seeing ourselves inside
Our enemies’ need for shelter
Same winter wind that’s blowing
Deep down inside we know
We’ve all got one eye on the winter
We need something to keep the chill…
That we’re wide awake…

Glad I'm Not A Kennedy
‘Glad I’m Not A Kennedy’ Lyrics
Living on through politics
Body-guarded, heart in bits
A blue-eyed honesty
Indigo injury
The family tree is felled
Bereavement worn so well
Giving up on certainty
Wilderness society
Wearing the fame like a loaded gun
Tied up with a rosary
I’m glad I’m not a Kennedy
Imagine being a Kennedy
Rule without remedy
To watch your family die
The world loves a sacrifice
Prophets longing for the three
Honouring the tragedy
They hunger for the crime
The privilege to take a life
Wearing the fame like a loaded gun
Tied up with a rosary
Ooh, I’m glad I’m not a Kennedy
I love the look in your eyes
I can see your soul sometimes and we laugh
When we try too hard we stop and start
Oh imagine being a Kennedy
I’m glad I’m not a Kennedy
Wearing the fame like a loaded gun
Tied up with a rosary
I’m glad I’m not a Kennedy
Imagine being a Kennedy
Ooh I’m glad I’m not a Kennedy

Drive Baby Drive
‘Drive Baby Drive’ Lyrics
I’ve smelt that smell before
Air thru alcohol
But it wasn’t here
Was in some other parking lot
Try the handle on another driver’s door
Keep going with foot flat to the floor
All you know is
It ain’t no fun no more
Following along
The white line to your eye
But there’s something wrong
Banked up behind your smile
New model there on the showroom floor
Hard smell and yeah you’ve smelt that smell before
All you know is
It ain’t no fun no more, no fun no more
But you can drive baby drive
Let those tears roll down your cheeks
Drive baby drive
Into another bleak week
Drive baby drive
Getting somewhere while you weep
The windscreen wipers hypnotise you into
A deep sleep
A deep sleep
So sure that you’ll take that turn
Seems natural to be running tonight
Seems right that the fires burn
That the violence lets in the light

Caught
‘Caught’ Lyrics
Caught
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
We are caught up in between
And the thought
S’ like rain up on the roof
Acid raining on the truth
Coz I want him
But I need your love
Running back, my heart intact
To the place I’m frightened of
In a moment
Memory singing sweet
Again begins, the echoing
Between the devil and the deep blue sea
Caught
Up in the tide of a fantasy
I thought those waves could never reach
But now I’m caught
Between the devil and the ocean
Lesson taught
Now please take me home
Coz I want him, etc…

Show Your Love
‘Show Your Love’ Lyrics
You know
There’s really no point
In living a life unless you try
To see
Past the hatred and the war
Bring a little feeling to the fore
Once
I walked alone
After taking people for granted
But then
I found a friend
And I know we’ll be together till the end
It’s so easy to show your love
It’s so easy to show your love
If it’s the world that you’ve been thinking of
It’s so easy to show your love
What’s wrong
with the world today
Is that people think they have to hide
The things inside
That really say
This world could be a beautiful place
Have you ever seen how a touch
Makes people pull away
And to smile at a stranger’s
not the thing to do today
But why?
I’m asking you why?
Oh why does it have to be that way
‘Cause
It’s so easy to show your love
Yes it is
It’s so easy to show your love
If it’s the world that you’ve been thinking of
It’s so easy to show your love
If it’s the world that you’ve been thinking of
It’s so easy to show your love
1905
‘1905’ Lyrics
I could light a cigarette
and take time
To find the words to write
But time costs time
and I haven’t really got
the time to spend today
So I’ll gaze at the blue envelope
Wondering if I should send it away
But I haven’t really got
the time to spend today
1905, you won your battle with life
The turn was mine fifty years later
So it’s no use crying
Time obviously didn’t even
want me to start trying
I should take the time
to start to stop myself
from using it the way I do
But in this day and age
Reality can be a dream too
So I’ll spend my spare time
and my taken time
Working out the truth
Yeah I suppose I’ve got
The time for you
1905, you won your battle with life
The turn was mine fifty years later
So it’s no use crying
Time obviously didn’t even
want me to start trying
I’ve invented a game
that I can’t win
Oh why did I ever begin
I’m not a sore loser
But when I think of
why I’m losing I cry
Oh time, time, time
1905, you won your battle with life
The turn was mine fifty years later
So it’s no use crying
Time obviously didn’t even
want me to start trying
Time, time, time
