   Girls on Film

   ×

   [Intro]
   Sound of Camera shutters flickering

   [Verse 1]
   See them walking hand in hand across the bridge at midnight
   Heads turning as the lights flashing out it's so bright
   Then walk right out to the four-line track
   There's a camera rolling on her back, on her back
   And I sense the rhythm humming in a frenzy all the way down her spine

   [Chorus]
   Girls on film
   Girls on film
   Girls on film
   Girls on film

   [Verse 2]
   Lipstick cherry all over the lens as she's falling
   In miles of sharp blue water coming in where she lies
   The diving man's coming up for air
   Cause the crowd all love pulling dolly by the hair, by the hair
   And she wonders how she ever got here as she goes under again

   [Chorus]
   Girls on film (two minutes later)
   Girls on film
   Girls on film (got your picture)
   Girls on film

   [Verse 3]
   Wider baby smiling you just made a million
   Fuses pumping live heat twisting out on a wire
   Take one last glimpse into the night
   I'm touching close I'm holding bright, holding tight
   Give me shudders in a whisper take me up till I'm shooting a star

   [Chorus-Outro]
   Girls on film (she's more than a lady)
   Girls on film
   Girls on film (two minutes later)
   Girls on film
   Girls on film (see you together)
   Girls on film
   Girls on film (see you later)
   Girls on film
   Girls on film (what you doing)
   Girls on film...

3. Planet Earth

   Planet Earth

   ×

   Only came outside to watch the night fall with the rain
   I heard you making patterns rhyme
   Like some new romantic looking for the TV sound
   You'll see I'm right some other time

   Look now, look all around, there's no sign of life
   Voices, another sound, can you hear me now?
   This is Planet Earth, you're looking at Planet Earth
   Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop this is Planet Earth

   My head is stuck on something precious
   Let me know if you're coming down to land
   Is there anybody out there trying to get through?
   My eyes are so cloudy I can't see you

   Look now, look all around, there's no sign of life
   Voices, another sound, can you hear me now?
   This is Planet Earth, you're looking at Planet Earth

   Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop
   This is Planet Earth
   Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop
   Calling Planet Earth
   Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop
   Looking at Planet Earth
   Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop
   This is Planet Earth

4. Anyone Out There

   Anyone Out There

   ×

   I never found out what made you leave
   And now the day is over, just an hour to go
   I tried to phone last night but you didn't answer
   Just left me ringing on the line

   Outside is there anyone out there, anyone else outside
   Outside love is there anyone out there, anyone else outside

   My face in the mirror shows the break in time
   A crack in the ocean which does not align
   I tried to sleep last night but I've caught your dreaming
   About days we used to wonder away

   Outside is there anyone out there, anyone else outside
   Outside love is there anyone out there, anyone else outside

   Look out of the window maybe you can call by my name
   Another night over babe another light comes on in vain

   I tried to phone last night but you never answered
   Just left me ringing in the air (outside)

   Is there anyone out there
   (anyone out there)

5. Careless Memories

   Careless Memories

   ×

   [Verse 1]
   So soon
   Just after you've gone
   My senses sharpen
   But it always takes
   So damned long
   Before I feel how much
   My eyes have darkened

   [Chorus 1]
   Fear hangs a plane of gun smoke
   Drifting in our room
   So easy to disturb
   With a thought
   With a whisper
   With a careless memory

   [Verse 2]
   On the table
   Signs of love life scattered
   And the walls break
   We go crashing within
   It's not as though
   As though you really mattered
   But being close
   How could I let you go
   Without some feeling
   Some precious sympathy following

   [Chorus 1]

   [Verse 3]
   I walk out into the sun
   I try to find a new day
   But the whole place
   It just screams in my eyes
   Where are you now?
   Cause I don't want to meet you
   I think I'd die
   I think I'd laugh at you
   I think I'd cry
   What am I supposed to do
   Follow you?

   [Chorus 1]

   Is There Something I Should Know?

   [Intro]
   Please, please tell me now
   Please, please tell me now
   Please, please tell me now
   Please, please tell me now

   [Verse 1]
   I made a break, I run out yesterday
   Tried to find my mountain hideaway
   Maybe next year, maybe no go

   I know you're watching me
   Every minute of the day, yeah
   I've seen the signs
   And the looks and the pictures
   That give your game away, yeah

   There's a dream that strings the road
   With broken glass for us to hold
   And I cut so far before I had to say

   [Chorus 1]
   Please, please tell me now
   Is there something I should know?
   Is there something I should say
   That would make you come my way?
   Do you feel the same?
   'Cause you don't let it show

7. Night Boat

   Night Boat

   ×

   [Verse 1]
   Standing on the edge of a quay
   Low lights flashing on the water for me
   Fogging my mind darkens my eyes
   Silently streaming for a distant sound
   Ripple river yellows
   Rising for a breath of breeding and drowns
   Stillness overcomes me in the night
   Listen to the rising water moan

   [Chorus]
   I'm waiting
   Waiting for the night bo-oh-oat
   I'm waiting
   Waiting for the night boat

   [Verse 2]
   Shudders all through me shudder away
   Echo me, echo me (echo me...)
   Am I alone or is the river alive
   'Cause it echos me, echos me, echos me

   [Chorus]
   I'm waiting
   Waiting for the night bo-oh-oat
   I'm waiting
   Waiting for the night boat

   Waiting
   Waiting for the night bo-oh-oat
   I'm waiting
   Waiting for the night boat
   Waiting for the night bo-oh-oat
   I'm waiting
   Waiting for the night boat

   [outro]
   I'm waiting for the night boat

   [Verse 1]
   I've been in this grass here
   For the last ten hours
   My clothes are dirty
   But my mouth isn't dry
   How does it happen?
   Does it fly through the air?
   Woah I gave up asking days away
   I gave up asking days away

   [Chorus]
   And now I'm lying here
   Waiting for the sound of thunder
   Waiting for the sound of thunder

   [Verse 2]
   Here I am I'm a dotted line
   Cut in through corners
   Stick me through your door
   I'm the man who stepped off the path
   And I just lying here
   That's what I was made for

   [Verse 3]
   And now my eyes are closing
   But I still feel the land
   Leaning out for the touch of my hand
   The world spins so fast
   That I might fly off
   The world spins so fast
   That I might fly off
   The world spins so fast
   I might fly off

   [Outro]
   Waiting for the sound of thunder
   I'm waiting for the sound of thunder
   I'm waiting for the sound of thunder
   I'm waiting for the sound of thunder
   I'm waiting for the sound of thunder
   I'm waiting for the sound of thunder
   I'm waiting for the sound of thunder
   I'm waiting for the sound of thunder

   [Verse 1]
   Friends of mine
   They said they were friends of mine
   Said they were passing time
   More like a waste of time

   Close the door
   I said close the door
   I've told you twice before
   What are you waiting for?

   [Chorus]
   Georgie Davis is coming out
   No more heroes we twist and shout
   Oh no, not me, I'm not too late
   And I know that I'm not taking anymore
   Rocky Picture has lost his gun
   Leave him out now he's having fun
   Oh no, not me, I'm not too late
   And I know that I'm not waiting anymore, hey, hey

   [Verse 2]
   Silly lies
   Don't have to advertise
   When will you realize?
   I'm sick of your alibis

   Running cold
   The water's running cold
   It's time that you were told
   I think you're growing old

   [Chorus]
   Georgie Davies is coming out
   No more heroes we twist and shout
   Oh no, not me, I'm not too late
   And I know that I'm not waiting anymore
   Rocky Picture has lost his gun
   Leave him out now he's having fun
   Oh no, not me, I'm not too late
   And I know that I'm not taking any more (hey, hey)

   [Bridge]
   I see you smile
   Pictures on the wall, they're all friends of mine
   See you standing 'round the back (friends of mine)
   Think yourself lucky

   [Verse 3]
   Friends of mine
   They said they were friends of mine
   They were just wasting time
   Out on the dotted line

   Oh, money's gone
   I've known it all along
   Why don't you say I'm wrong?
   Why don't they drop the bomb?

   [Chorus]
   'Cause Georgie Davies is coming out
   No more heroes we twist and shout
   Oh no, not me, I'm not too late
   And I know that I'm not waiting anymore
   Rocky Picture's thrown away his gun
   Leave him out now he's having fun
   Oh no, not me, I'm not too late
   And I know that I'm not taking any more

   [Outro]
   What you doing, friends of mine?
   Holding back now, friends of mine
   I've always heard you calling
