When you get up late for work in the morning
And somebody's broken into your car
Makes you feel like killing
Maybe you'd be willing
But you don't have to take it that far

Stand up, say who cares and stand up
Cos when things drag you down
You can't take it sitting down
Stand up

You catch you girl making love with the postman
And they're doing it in your very own bed
She says he's giving her a letter,
I think you should forget her
And go out with her sister instead

Stand up, kick the cat and stand up
Don't go crying on the floor,
Just kick them out the door
And stand up


Every now and then boy
You gotta take it on the chin
It's just another symptom ofthe world we're living in
Everydays a battle,
Sometimes you're gonna bruise
But if you let it get you down you'll lose
Stand up

Sit down


Sunday morning you relax with the papers
All week long you've been working so hard
Then you can't believe what you've seen on the page
About a road they're gonna build through you yard

Stand up, shout about it stand up
you don't have to beg them please
Don't go down on your knees
Stand up
If they're gonna tread on you
make them think before they do
Stand up

Stand up, dont take it lyaing down
Stand up

Mama, tell your children not to go
Down to the city, where the
desperate people go
And mama, don't let them stray
They won't find, peace of mind, in
such a lonely place
Wannabes and losers, all trying to get
a break
They don't give a damn, they'll do
whatever it takes
If they climb the ladder, they get to
play for higher stakes
That's why there's low life in high
places

Mama, things have changed since
you were young
When you scream, in the dead of
night
Now no one ever comes
And a poor man, he's cast as the
villan and a thief
See him down on the street, begging
for enough to eat

Waiting on the corner, I saw her
waiting for the man
When the limo pulled up I saw what
was changing hands
I should've tried to warn her, and
make her understand
There is low life in high places

There is low life, like you never even
knew
There is low life, and it lives in me and
you
But we don't all let it through

Don't let 'em go, you've got to have
some pity
Don't you let 'em go
You've got to keep 'em away, from
the big bad city

(SOLO)

Waiting on the corner, I saw her
waiting for the man
When the limo pulled up I saw what
was changing hands
I should've tried to warn her, and
make her understand

Mama, tell your children not to go
Down to the city, where the
desperate people go
And mama, don't you let them stray
They won't find, peace of mind in
such a lonely place

Father's gone crazy, he stares out the window all day
Watching the same streets where once as a kid he would play
There's no hope in his eyes anymore
He's forgotten what he was hoping for
And the postman walks straight past the door
There's no news today

Someone save me from this forgotten town
Or I'll go crazy in this forgotten town
'Cos when they lay me down, it won't be here

Mother's been drinking, she smokes nearly three packs a day
Once she was so pretty, but time's taken it all away
Every promise she heard was a lie
about the future, how it would be right
And I won't understand all my life
how she gets thru the day

'Cos there's no way out of this forgotten town
So you live your life out in this forgotten town
The only way is down, when dreams don't come true
No not for you, no no

There's no hope in his eyes anymore
He's forgotten what he was hoping for
And the postman walks straight past the door
There's no news today

Someone save me from this forgotten town
Or I'll go crazy in this forgotten town
There's no way out of this forgotten town
So you live your life out in this forgotten town
Until you're in the ground it's all you can do
It's all you can do now
No no no

I met her in a club down in old Soho
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like Coca-Cola
C-O-L-A, Cola
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said Lola
L-O-L-A, Lola
La-la-la-la Lola

Well, I'm not the world's most physical guy
But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine, oh my Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
Well, I'm not dumb but I can't understand
Why she walked like a woman but talked like a man, oh my Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
La-la-la-la Lola

Well, we drank champagne and danced all night
Under electric candlelight
She picked me up and sat me on her knee
And said "Dear boy, won't you come home with me?"
Well, I'm not the world's most passionate guy
But when I looked in her eyes, well I almost fell for my Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
La-la-la-la Lola

I pushed her away
I walked to the door
I fell to the floor
I got down on my knees
Then I looked at her and she at me

Well, that's the way that I want it to stay
And I always want it to be that way for my Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
It's a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world, except for Lola
La-la-la-la Lola

Well, I left home just a week before
And I'd never ever kissed a woman before
But Lola smiled and took me by the hand
And said "Dear boy, I'm gonna make you a man"

Well, I'm not the world's most masculine man
But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man
And so is Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
La-la-la-la Lola

Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
La-la-la-la Lola

Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
La-la-la-la Lola

Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
La-la-la-la Lola

Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
La-la-la-la Lola

Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
La-la-la-la Lola

Lola
La-la-la-la Lola
La-la-la-la Lola

Once in a while, I drift in time
To a place in my memory, that it still
hurts to find
I was taking on the world with a see-
through smile
But dying on the inside all the while
I was, dying on the inside all the
while

Like a martyr that don't want
sympathy
I locked away my feelings, and
threw away the key
It was gonna take a miracle to pierce
my pride
And you were the tower of strength
to try
When your loving washed right over
me like the tide

And now I believe in love (I believe
in love)
I believe in love (I believe in love)
You're the reason why I can
Cos when I look, at myself, in the
mirror
I see a better man
A better man
Yes its hard finding words that can
say how I feel about you
I don't care if it sounds like another
old cliche
But I can't stand the thought of
living my life without you
For even a day

Oh baby

And now I believe in love (I believe
in love)
Yes I believe in love (I believe in
love)
You're the reason why I can
Cos when I look, at myself, in the
mirror
Oh baby
When I look at myself in the mirror
When I'm looking at myself in the
mirror
I see a better man
