  • Hospital Blues

I got a little tale to tell.  I’ve been to the hospital
They said you have to this and that.  If your gonna beat this crap
I did it all, I did it all
My woman she knows what’s best.  She works there with the rest
She said to do this and that.  If your gonna beat this crap
I did it all, I did it all
Now I’m back home again.  No more drugs and stems
I did a lot of this and that.  Don’t want any more of that
I did it all, I did it all
If you’re going through the same.  I say it’s a crying shame
You gotta do this and that.  If you’re gonna beat that crap
I did it all, I did it all

  • Morning, Noon and Night

It’s good to be back, Good to be back again, You know how that feels
I’m on the right track, I’m on the right track again, You know how that feels
It’s been a long time, been a long time away, You know what I mean
There’s still a few things, still a few things to say, You know what I mean
And you’re always there in my mind.  My Morning, Noon and Night
I’ve been away from you, I think of you all the time, You know how that feels
It’s good to be back, Good to be back again, You know how that feels
Now everthin’g good, I’m having a good time, You know what I mean
There’s never enough, Never enough Time, You know what I mean
And you’re always there in my mind.  My Morning, Noon and Night
I don’t want to think, Don’t want to think too far, You know how that feels
I’m on the right track, On the right track again, You know how that feels
I’m gonna be good, gonna be good again, You know what I mean
It’s good to be back, Good to be back again, You know what I mean
And you’re always there in my mind.  My Morning, Noon and Night.  It’s good to be back.

  • Ondansetron

She comes to stop you feeling bad.  A little white thing that I’d never had
She comes to stop you feeling bad.  A little white thing that I’d never had
Ondansetron, why do you do what you do
She’ll fill your head so full of dreams.  They won’t go away or so it seams
She’ll fill your head so full of dreams.  They won’t go away or so it seams
Ondansetron, why do you do what you do
When I try to get my head down to rest.  She just gets started again
When I try to get my head down to rest.  She just gets started again
Ondansetron, why do you do what you do
I closed my eyes hoping that would help.  She wouldn’t let me be till the break of day
I closed my eyes hoping that would help.  She wouldn’t let me be till the break of day
Ondansetron, why do you do what you do
Now that she’s gone I never want her back.  She’s the worst thing that I’ve ever had
Now that she’s gone I never want her back.  She’s the worst thing that I’ve ever had
Ondansetron, why do you do what you do.  Ondansetron, why do you do what you do
Your supposed to be good.  I’m glad to see the back of you

  • Politics

Politics is a career built on trust.  You have to believe in it, that’s a must
I’ve been left and right and down the middle.  Can’t say I believe any of it, it’s all drivel
We tell the world we’ve got it right.  And if they want it too we’ll help them fight
We’re so busy looking for political gain.  We miss the important stuff and that’s a shame
So instead of teaching the whole world to dance.  Going through the motions and living in a trance
We should listen to the views of those gone before and make a start by closing the border door
We all know that there is too many people here so lets start like this and make it clear
Do something wrong, something bad and get found out.  If you’ve come here to live, one strike and you’re out.
Yeah it’s hard and may sound tough.  Some right wing anger that could get rough
But we have to many crooks, thieves and vandals.  Someone needs to get a hold of the handle
That’s enough of that, there’s plenty more wrong.  Everyone has a point of view, the list is long.
So I’ll start with some of the stuff that I don’t like and if you don’t like it, well take a hike.
Religious zealots live amongst us and eat our breadbut they preach hate and would see you dead.
Politicians are dirty and play the game.  Get what you can, while you can, it’s all the same
They take what they want including fences, houses, cars and boats put on their expenses.
Most of them say “Hear, hear” and don’t have a clue.  The’re not real people like me and you.
Why don’t they stop lorries overtaking on hills and let cars go faster because tiredness kills
Stop meddling in our prite lives, leave us alone.  I hate it when they take that motherly tone.
Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.
Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.
We know good from bad and what makes us sad, it’s some toff idiot and not when the weather is bad.
I’d like to stop the drunks coming out on the street.  Clean it all up for the rest of us, what a treat
Stop mail & telephone scams that trap old people.  Get to grips with crime and stop being feeble
You should get it all if you cross the thin blue line.  Life should be life and time should be time.
If there’s no room at the cells don’t let them out just build some more no matter what they shout.
If Brussell’s don’t like it they’ll complain but it’s time we told them we’re not in their game
If a country lives beyond its means, spends more than it makes from GDP
What happens then, who counts the cost.  Not politicians, without instructions they’d get lost.
Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.
Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.
‘course if we did that at home we’d soon be in trouble and with banks as thieves your trouble would be double.  When you can’t pay the rent they throw you out and let you live in a tent
With evasion, avoidance, and inheritance too, there’s any number or ways they find to tax you
When you have what’s left in your pocket they still want more.  Road tax, VAT and even something at deaths door.
So where does it all go, all this loot they’ve got.  Duck houses, Moats, 2nd homes, they’ve got the lot.  It’s nice to know we can trust these guys!  If you read the papers, is it truth or lies?
Get some democracy, get it here first.  Ditch your dictator, quench your political thirst
Don’t matter where you tick the box or name, you’ve just got to get in the political game
Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.
Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.
Get some democracy, get it here first.  Ditch your dictator, quench your political thirst
Don’t matter where you tick the box or name, you’ve just got to get in the political game.
Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.
Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.  Don’t forget to vote.

  • Man in Black

It’s been a while since I felt the man in black.  I was sure he was close ’cause I felt so bad
He’s the faceless one come to claim his treat.  I must have said no because I still have my seat.

When he comes again and I’m sure he will.  He won’t come knocking but quiet and chilled
He’s the faceless one come to claim his treat but I’m not ready, not giving my seat

I hope it’s a while ’till I feel him again, come on back to stake his claim
But I’m not going ’cause I’m not beat.  I’m having too much fun sitting in my seat

  • Rental Blues

Don’t you ever.  Don’t you ever, Get into rental, Get into rental
’cause if you don’t get it just right, it’s gonna make you sad
Whoa there, rentals will make you feel the blues
If I never.  If I never, Got into rental, Got into rental
My money would not be so fragile and tenants make you mad
Whoa there, rentals will make you feel the blues
If I never, Got into rental, I would never have to worry, I would just be glad.
If I never, Got into rental, I would never have to worry, I would just be glad.
Whoa there, rentals will make you feel the

  • Running Without Shoes

Let’s get together and discuss the weather and live life together is what we said.
No need to worry and don’t need much money so long as it’s sunny is what we said
She makes my heart miss, then there’s the first kiss, I’m in a big fizz at what we said
I need you need me need you
Without you, without you, without you my life would be blue
Without you, without you, without you it’s like running without shoes
She makes me happy, I make her snappy but we got together just like we said
She’s into garden stuff, I like her in the buff, there’s never time enough to share with her
I’m not too clever now but she’s always asking how, Find out together is what we said
I need you need me need you
Without you, without you, without you my life would be blue
Without you, without you, without you it’s like running without shoes
Now here we are again, All on our own again, Live life together is what we said
When we’re together we feel so much better we don’t let the weather get in our way
I’ll always care for her, love and be there for her, she’s always there for me just the same.
I need you need me need you
Without you, without you, without you my life would be blue
Without you, without you, without you it’s like running without shoes
I need you need me need

  • Don’t Sound Like the Blues

Life is like a train, it’s getting ever faster, I just had a run in with the ticket master
He said you can get off any time you want to, I said I wasn’t going anywhere thank you.
Everyone says don’t eat too many Huffers, I just hope my train don’t go and hit the buffers
Some people have a plan and take it to conclusion.  I couldn’t do that I’d find it too confusing.
My father always said to think about tomorrow and if if you can do it don’t beg steal or borrow.
We all have a plan about a winning ticket but I would never be the one to go and pick it.
So I guess it’s off to work on Monday unless I get a text to say I won on Sunday.
So now I’m back puffing up my steam again, but I’ve got to tell you, back to work is a big pain.
I got back on board but I think I regret it although my bank account is finally back in credit
Well everyone is different and you don’t have to be me and I’m glad I don’t walk in your shoes
Now I’m gonna stop, stop all this rambling ’cause it don’t sound like the blues

  • Road Trip

We’ve been driving around, this car is outta sight, if you want her to she’ll let you go all night
We’re taking her down, down to where the sky is near.  She’s packed up tight, instead of light she’s full of gear.
So we’re shifting gears leaving rubber on the road, down the autobahn we take our heavy load
But we don’t care it’s what we like to do, just a whole lotta gear and me and you
Going where the snow is, Going where the snow is, Going where the snow is, Riding on the white stuff again.
There’s nothing like the rush going down the hill, something good that doesn’t have to come from pills.
It’s two days down with a stop about half way, but we’ll be there and ready the next day
When it’s all over we’ll burn up the road again, take the tunnel home but we’ll already be thinking when.
It’s a long time coming but we’ll be back down there, another year gone but next year I don’t care.
Going where the snow is, Going where the snow is, Going where the snow is, Riding on the white stuff

  • Blow My Mind

I first met you in a place in Nottingham, You upset my friends and tried to change our plans
I guess you couldn’t help it it’s just the way you are.
You think you’re so so fine, You think you’re so dam refined, You blow my mind
I didn’t see you again for many years,  My friends didn’t like you and they made it clear
But that was long ago and I was willing to forget.
You think you’re so so fine, You think you’re so dam refined, You blow my mind
I talk to your friends and they all say the same.  You don’t communicate and it’s a crying shame
The only time you talk is when you want me back in your game.
You think you’re so so fine, You think you’re so dam refined, You blow my mind
I must have been stupid about two years ago.  I must have been mad or maybe you caught me low
I should have said no but thought we’d give it a go.
You think you’re so so fine, You think you’re so dam refined, You blow my mind
I don’t need you, I’m happy without you.
You think you’re so so fine, You think you’re so dam refined, You blow my mind
Right from the start I might as well not bother to stay, You never hear me out and let me have my say.  So it’s no surprise when we had to end it there.
You think you’re so so fine, You think you’re so dam refined, You blow my mind
You thought it easy to say bye bye and walk away, well I’m not going until I make you pay
For all the things you’ve said and done and everything that’s happened today
You think you’re so so fine, You think you’re so dam refined, You blow my mind
You think you’re so so fine, You think you’re so dam refined, You blow my mind
You blow my mind,  You blow my mind,  You blow my mind, You blow my mind,
