No One At All

You're a southern man
You're a northern soul
You're a west-ender
You got eastern soul
But you're no-one at all

You're a rich man
You're a poor man
You're a this man
Then you're that man
But you're no-one at all

You're a liar
You're a winner
And expert and a beginner
But you're no-one at all

When the wind blows
That's when you know
That your nose grows

North Atlantic Drift

Meanwhile Rome burns
Meanwhile Rome burns
Its a cultural shift its the North Atlantic Drift
Americana and a rule Britannia
And the moon yes we own that to
And where the Euphrates meets the other rivers
Is now the home of the devil and the liar
And the pyre we plan to make
Is just the drift leaving its wake, home
Meanwhile Rome burns
Meanwhile Rome burns
And the films you want to watch
And the films you want to make
And the kids like lost angels
Dressed in black sensations
And the shift won? shake
And the drift won? brake
With billions of Diamonds growing like olives
And the drift holds the coffers
Meanwhile Rome burns

I Wont Get Grazed

Im going away to see my own
And tread my earth
Ive got no ordinary gain
By to set my worth
I get enough and I get too late
And if I fall down on the road
Then I wont get grazed
I cannot let you take my time
Or till my earth
Youve had enough of life to see
That it shakes my nerve
All of these things I cant get straight
And if Im falling to the road
Then I wont get grazed
Ive had two of them or three
And I just get hurt
I watch me crawling down the road
Trying to guess my worth
I know not what Im trying to say
But if Im falling on this road

For Every Corner

I'll take your side and I'll take you into town
And there you'll search around
You hope she must be waiting now
Found what you need don't push her too far
Don't ever let her see you down
I hope she's waiting now
It's not that she has been around too long to never try
Too Long to never try
For every corner there's a way out
And every day that you lose there's a pay out, there's a pay out
And if she cries you know it will be fine
With things now on your side don't frown
She is waiting now
But if she sings, then she's taken all you bring
To her you mean all things you Smile
She's waiting now
It's not that she has been around too long to never try
Too Long to never try
Repeat Chorus
But don't you think the time will come when you'll get in her way

This Understanding - July/i Am The News

I get this understanding
It's like a living breath
And it grooves with the times
And it swings with the tune
And it flows until the end of rest
I get this understanding
It knocks at every door
And it keeps you awake
With a sweet elevate
And it keeps you running back for more
I get this understanding
On a night like tonight
And i'm driving and driving
And never arriving
But the way i'm singing oh so right
I get this understanding
When a fish when it's fried
And it's you coming home
And i'm being on my own
And we're shaking off the world outside

Downstream

Lay down your head & look to your window
Where do you go when its not where youre going
And how do you see when the light isnt shining
Where you could be if you worked out the timing
And how does it feel when the world comes on so real & true
And how do you do the things you do to you
If I were a king & you were a lady
What would I sing to say what Im saying
And would you believe the verses left open
My heart on my sleeve the rhyming all broken
And how does it feel when the world comes back so real & true
And how do you do the things you do to you
Sell me a river and Ill skate away
To the downstream where I did play
So easy minded like a hill on the skyline
Tripped up and blinded getting lost on the sidelines
And how does it feel when each word comes back so real & true
And how do you do the things you do to you

The Downstream

Lay down your head & look to your window
Where do you go when its not where youre going
And how do you see when the light isnt shining
Where you could be if you worked out the timing
And how does it feel when the world comes on so real & true
And how do you do the things you do to you
If I were a king & you were a lady
What would I sing to say what Im saying
And would you believe the verses left open
My heart on my sleeve the rhyming all broken
And how does it feel when the world comes back so real & true
And how do you do the things you do to you
Sell me a river and Ill skate away
To the downstream where I did play
So easy minded like a hill on the skyline
Tripped up and blinded getting lost on the sidelines
And how does it feel when each word comes back so real & true
And how do you do the things you do to you

Do Yourself A Favour

Isolated junkyard
Letting out the garbage
Eating through the core of life
Sweet fragrance irritates
In a stale room death awaits
Persecute your own self pride
Suffocate the new high
Ride a thorny mule that cries
Dig your grave and jump right in
Like a Judas pay the price
Thirty pieces for a ride
Here's the fire now take a chew

Do yourself a favour
Educate your mind
Get yourself together
Hey/Oh there ain't no time

Shredded know-how gives away
Species of the human race

Hoping Youre Making It Too - So Low B-side

Dont let my feet get off the ground
Today Im glad to be standing here
But all the time I spent tunnelling down
To some place where Im not so clear
Ive been holding out for this time
Standing straight in my own line
Was hoping youre making it too
All the hours we were learning to fly
Were chasing night-lights round the room
I can never repay when I learnt from you
I know youre seeing it your own way too
Your head just went for another walk
But its coming home and it hangs in the hall
Your head in your hand as youre suffering
But you I know what state youre in
Fall on my knees and my hair rolls around
But even on my knees I know I can stand
If its coming home its coming for you
I can see me standing with dunston and you
Ive been holding out for my neighbour
