You can do anything you want
As long as it makes sense
You can do anything you want
As long as it makes sense

What a long haul it's been
My old and trusted friend
Don't think I'm being mean
Just can't find a gift to send

You didn't portray a sign
Not a tremble of the limb
In life were all duffels chum
Of all wisdom this is the sum

You can't fool me Dennis
You can't fool me Dennis
You can't fool me Dennis
No, you can't fool me Dennis

You can do anything you want
As long as it makes sense
You can do anything you want
As long as it makes sense

Remember those barmy days
Through a rose-tinted haze
Pal, you weren't a cypher
Pal, you were a man!
All the students drove a van

Well, it always pays to be brave
From the cradle to the grave
When the cat be friended the mouse
There wasn't a dry eye in the house

You can't fool me Dennis
You can't fool me Dennis
You can't fool me Dennis
You can't fool me Dennis

You can't fool me Dennis
You can't fool me Dennis
You can't fool me Dennis
No, you can't fool me Dennis

I know there's something a miss
You can't fool me Dennis
Knock me in a cocked hat
You always played with a straight bat

I know, I know, I know, I know...

I'm a tourist,
World at my feet.
Across hither and dither
and hither and dither
and hither and dither
wont fall off my seat.

I've a camera,
Keep my photos in a book.
The more i keep shooting and shooting
and shooting and shooting and shooting
and shooting,
The less i have to look.

Im a tourist
I'm a tourist
Oh Cairo where did you go,
Oh Cairo where did you go,
Oh Cairo where did you go,
Oh Cairo where have you gone
(where have you gone x3)

You're an Oyster,
That's food for thought,
Whats not for sale,
for sale for sale for sale for sale
for sale for sale cannot be bought.

I'm a tourist
I'm a tourist
Oh Cairo where did you go,
Oh Cairo where did you go,
Oh Cairo where did you go,
Oh Cairo where did you go,
Oh Cairo where did you go,
Oh Cairo where did you go,
Oh Cairo where did you go,
Oh Cairo where have you gone
(where have you gone x3)

To be the hero of my story
Forced are the events of my life
You're young, oh twice but once
Save my trouble

You struggle
You struggle

Bathe me in water vapour
Erase me to ashes with fire
I grow old to dust in the dark
You left me be soluble in air

If I, really knew the truth
I'd probably turn back with love
Better to not know too much too soon
Mankind is always in the tongue

Bathe me in water vapour
Erase me to ashes with fire
I grow old to dust in the dark
You left me be soluble in air

Bathe me in water vapour
Erase me to ashes with fire
I grow old to dust in the dark
You left me be soluble in air

There was a boy who ran away
from what he didn't know
And whom he wouldn't say he just had to go
Something it snapped inside of him as he fled from a nameless threat
Crowds of people stand aloof in Waterloo there's no sunset
And when he gets to that mythic place the streets are
dirty dark and deep
There is no rest there is no place to lay a head to sleep
There was a boy who ran away from what he didn't know
And whom he wouldn't say he just had to go
I went to so much trouble to banish you from my side
He said that your an accident
an accident about which I should forget
And now that the wheel has gone around he's back where he belongs
And he knows there is no hope only solace in the words of this song
There was a boy who ran away from what he didn't know
And whom he wouldn't say he just had to go

If you don't trust me i'll fall

I've wind in my sails
but the seas make me pale
and the floorboards are creaking below

Find me the oars
to row me to shores
where the natives will say hello

Emotion pulls you like a horse drawn cart
You can but only follow it into the day into the dark

Where are the fruits
growing from promised roots?
How far can this beer be thrown?

Here, take from me
this supposed ability
My feather's flown further than it was to be blown

Oooh ah ah ah ah oooh ho hoo

Emotion pulls you like a horse drawn cart
You can but only follow it into the day into the dark
Emotion pulls you like a horse drawn cart
You can but only follow it into the day into the dark

If you don't trust me i'll fall
(trust me i'll fall)
If you don't trust me i'll fall
(trust me i'll fall)
If you don't trust me i'll fall
(trust me i'll fall)
If you don't trust me i'll fall
(trust me i'll fall)
If you don't trust me i'll fall
(trust me i'll fall)
If you don't trust me i'll fall
If you don't (trust me i'll fall)
If you don't trust me i'll fall
If you don't (trust me i'll fall)
If you don't trust me i'll fall
If you don't (trust me i'll fall)
If you don't trust me i'll fall
If you don't (trust me i'll fall)
If you don't trust me i'll fall
If you don't (trust me i'll fall)

If you don't trust me i'll fall
If you don't (trust me i'll fall)
If you don't trust me i'll fall
If you don't (trust me i'll fall)
If you don't trust me i'll fall
If you don't (trust me i'll fall)
If you don't trust me i'll fall
If you don't (trust me i'll fall, fall, fall)

ZOOTIME, ZOOTIME etc...(CHANT)

Oh, and all the things too fragile to see
Well your tin hat you take off around me
In your copper caravan, you can't have a clue
Wir sind die Kinder vom Bahnhof Zoo

Nintendo machines in hospitals are always broken
Chewing jay cloths relieves the pain from mouth ulcers
I've got a crush on a girl
But I'm gonna have to work on that
They say that being in the army makes you hard
But I don't know about that

Ice cream blender, pocket money spender
Off-chart behaviour, granulated banana flavour

Let's play nurses and doctors
Until the real nurses and doctors catch us shouting curses
Hiding in boxes until the real nurses and doctors come

I used to have a little bag of hair
And wish it was my hair
My Dad would bring me Airfix fighters
The glue would get all over the bed
At my fingertips enough morphine to put me in that jet
A 4am that little red button was all I had left

Ice cream blender, pocket money spender
Off-chart behaviour, granulated banana flavour

Let's play nurses and doctors
Until the real nurses and doctors catch us shouting curses
Hiding in boxes until the real nurses and doctors come...

Looking back now I regret,
You're a promise that I never kept.
Waiting in my room in vain,
Time winds back and back again.

Outside the school gates,
We first met in a basement near the park
(Diamonds in the dark)
We danced all night and then we kissed,
Your smile like diamonds in the dark.

It's a long way to fall
When the words stray
No-one calls

We would have little children,
We would be together forever.
(Diamonds in the dark)
We would live on the Delancy Street,
Then you cut your hair
And it ended there.

It's a long way to fall (long way)
When the words stray
No-one calls

Looking back now I regret,
You're a promise that I never kept.
Waiting in my room in vain,
Time winds back and back again.

Now I've nothing left to lose,
Clinging to a cliff-face
Staring at your shoes
And tell me, tell me, tell me
Do you feel the same?
Or are we just waiting for a day we can't,
A day that we can't change.

And now there's this no-mans land
Between you and me
(Diamonds in the dark)
But I still wander between
The sheets and streets
And other places we've been

It's a long way to fall (long way to fall)
When the words stray
No-one calls (such a long way to fall)
It's a long way to fall (long way to fall)
When the words stray
No-one calls

Looking back now I regret,
You're a promise that I never kept.
Waiting in my room in vain,
Time winds back and back again.

Back and back again,
Back and back again,
Back and back again,
Back again

Agnes it all ended up in tears

Well we were an odd couple you and I
In our strange and original attire
I thought, I thought it was love at first sight
My mother, my mother, she shivered with fright

Well I couldn't tell if you were boy or girl
My mind was in such a swirl
I couldn't tell if you were boy or girl
True love roams, it roams where it will

Alas, Oh Agnes
I still adore you, oh Agnes
Oh Agnes, Oh Agnes, Oh Agnes, Oh Agnes

Agnes it all ended up in tears
Mind, you still have your souvenirs
You've got scars from head to toe
It's getting hard to tell your friends from foe

Well, you picked me up at King's Cross station
After my backstreet operation
You broke me, you broke the painful news
You dumped me, you dumped me for a pretty young muse

Well my lessons they are there to learn
My scars are caused by cigarette burns
I have no memories and I spend all day
Balancing the porcelain

Alas, Oh Agnes
I still adore you, oh Agnes
Oh Agnes, Oh Agnes, Oh Agnes, Oh Agnes

Oh Agnes I adore you
Oh Agnes I adore you
Oh Agnes I adore you
Oh Agnes I still adore you

I have a plane,
One of the few
With roundels on its wings.
Lullaby for me and for you,
When it flys high it sings

Rock me to sleep
With que sara,
Dear monde do you suppose?
As I feel my eyelids close,
The otherside is not so far.

I dug a hole
Under the ground
And made myself a den.
It's there that I can be found,
Not if you return but when.

There's a place
A place called Hell,
Spend some time there,
In the dark I cast a spell
To bury all,
All of my fears.

Oh D... (?)
Oh D...
Oh D...
I would but I couldn't spell your name.

Once I fell from a great height,
'Are you ready? I've come for you'
A voice spoke from the graveyard (?)
'Not yet' I said,
'Got some things to do.'

And all this time I've been making dens,
And I'm still making them now.
And I know, I know
I can never make ammends,
But I've got to reach you somehow.

I can tie my laces (Ohh Oh)
On my own shoes and I can (Ohh Oh)
Count up to to thirty too.

Oh D... (?)
Oh D...
Oh D...
I would but I couldn't spell your name.

I'm sorry
There are so few words
... (?)
I waited
A long time
And I never, never came back.
I see you often
In everyday places
I want to ... (?)
But I can't find the words.
But I can't find the words.
And I can't find the words
Oh I can't find the words.
And I can't find the words.
And I can't find the words.
They won't come.

(La la la la la)
