I Like To
I like to pull the plug in the tub
Sit and watch the water flow down the drain
I like to, I like to
I like to look at pictures in a book
Never read the writing just put it down
I like to, I like to
Id really like to know
What would you like to do
Id really like to
I like to watch the telly
With the sound turned down
Listen to the stereo
Turn the channels around
I like to, I like to
I like to eat a sandwich with the lot, yum yum
Putting on everything that ve got
I like to, I like to
Id really like to know
What would you like to do
Id really like to

People Just Love To Play With Words
Im not tryin to impress you with my lines
They dont mean nothin at all
Its just another expression of mine
It dont mean nothin at all
Mystifying, oh no
Crystalizing, you know
People just love to play with words
People just love to play, havent you heard?
People just love to play with words
People just love to play, havent you heard?
There are two sides, a win or loss
Whats two down and four across?
Analyzing and implying, you know
People just love to play with words
People just love to play, havent you heard?
People just love to play with words
People just love to play, havent you heard? ...

Upstairs In My House
No one knows what I can see and and what I see it pleases me on my roof
South pacific hot sea pool, coney island amusement school for mispent youth
Its all in my own front yard, seagulls grazing in the park and foreshore
South-east wind pins back my ears, luna park lights up the years of painless days
I like it, upstairs in my house
Dealers selling junk and trash, people spend their hard earned cash on sundays
Its quiet when they fade away, westgate bridge breakes up the day, into red sky
I like it, upstairs in my house, upstairs in my house
No one knows what I can see and what I see it pleases me on my roof
I like it, upstairs in my house, upstairs in my house

Catch A Star
Experience babe, kickin stones and cans
Experience babe, cigarette-stained hands
Its not too late, hear it in the wind
Its not too late, feel passion creepin in
Intoxication, familiar smells of the hotels
Infatuation, of knowing who you are
You and i, you and i, you and i,
Arrow through my heart,
Catch a star.
Isolation, rows and rows of cars
Isolation, like jupiter and mars
Staring faces, set in celluloid
Welcome to the late show, starring null and void
Complications, things get in the way
Sweet sensation of knowing you are near and not too far
You and i, you and i, you and i,
Arrow through my heart
Catch a star.
You and i, you and i, you and i,
Freeway through your heart

Man With Two Hearts
Like a man who has two hearts
Both of them worlds apart
Both of them play their part you know
Like a man who has two wives
His life the becomes alibis
Nobody asks him why you know
Can there be peace
Between the heart and the brain?
No release always the same
I wont come here again
Like a man who has one hand
Still he does what he can
Shows he is twice the man you are
Are we just beasts
With our burdens of pain
No release always the same
Cut off my legs
Torture and maim
Im back here again
Like a man who has two hearts

Everything I Need
Moving up and down and from side to side
With so many things to do
I want to go again I want another ride
This time should see it through
We never realised as the years rolled by
No we never really had a clue
But we knew one day wed come alive
And in the end theres me and you
My babe, she gives me everything
She gives me everything I need
When the winter comes and the cold sets in
As this citys prone to do
They forecast heavy seas and gale force winds
Thats really nothing new
When Im falling down
Deeper than the underground
My thoughts race back to you
Again and again
My babe, she gives me everything
She gives me everything I need

Maria
Maria was born in the country
She loved her homeland
Maria was from a poor family
For their girl they had greater plans
Across the sea not yet twenty
Sailed our maria, a man to see
Perhaps marry dreams our maria
This was to be eventually for our maria
Maria made plans for the future
Sh had sons to her man
Maria grew sad as the years passed
She did not understand
You must believe me
Though its not easy, trust in me
My lifes been wasted
Theres nothing sacred I can see
Though were together
It seems weve never known the way
These lives we started
Now broken hearted everyday

No Restrictions
Give me no restrictions on what I do or say
Dont speak of tomorrow when its still today
Leave me to my selfish ways, Im well enough alone
That is what I tell myself as I stumble home
Derelict across the street in the garbage bin
Looks like hes found something neat judging by his grin
Such a long long way to go, hope I get there soon
Wish I could jump a great height and land in my front room
Whoa-oh-oh-whoa-oh-oh
Wake up in the morning make sure Im still alive
Percolate the coffee opens up my eyes
Hear the cricket calling switch on the tv
Sit and stare for hours and cheer dennis lillee
Whoa-oh-oh-whoa-oh-oh
Through the de-restriction zone we pass a long wide load
Laugh at the reflections of cats eyes on the road
Freeways hypnotize me, up up and away
Hope we make it home tonight
Be that as it may
Whoa-oh-oh-whoa-oh-oh

Children On Parade
All the girls and boys have gone away
They never really had much to say
They took off all their clothes and their shoes
Politely asked to be excused
Theyre the children on parade
They have a secret they can share
Theyre the children on parade
And nobody knows
And nobody knows
All the broken toys lie on the floor
Theres no more laughter from down the hall
Mirror, mirror, mirror on the wall
Whatever could have happened to them all
Theyre the children on parade
They have a secret that they share
Theyre the children on parade
And nobody knows
And nobody knows
All across the world just yesterday
All the boys and girls just went away

Settle Down My Boy
Settle down, an eat your peas and gravy, my boy
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Stop wasting all your time with running around the town
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Knuckle down and find a job and take some responsibility
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
The futures something you should be thinking about
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Look around for a wife to start a family, my boy
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Listen toy our father and hell tell you the same as me
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Your words would go in one ear and out the other side
Dont say my head was empty and I had things to hide
And you better put something away for your old age
So settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down uh huh huh
