HAPPY TOGETHER - Paul Weller
Thought that I would forget you?
Heaven knows that's not my style
And that I would let you?
Walk away without at least goodbye
You shouldn't let those feelings fool you -
You shouldn't let those feelings get you down

Thought that I was a devil?
But I'm an angel waiting for my wings
And I was out to hurt you?
But I've no wish to ever cause you pain

Cause there's enough in this world of sorrow
I've no wish to add some more to it

We're happy together now -




HEATWAVE - Holland/Dozier/Holland
Whenever I'm with you
Something inside starts burning
Snd my hearts filled with fire
Stop this - it's got a hold on me
I said this ain't the way it's supposed to be

It's like a heatwave burning in my heart
I can't keep from crying
Tearing me apart

Whenever she calls my name
Sounds so soft sweet and plain
Right then, right there
I feel this burning pain
This high blood pressure's got a hold on me
I said this ain't the way love's supposed to be

Whenever I'm with you
Something inside starts burning
And my hearts filled with fire

Something's got me amazed
Don't know what to do
My head's in a haze




HERE COMES THE WEEKEND - Paul Weller
If we tell you that you've got two days to live
Then don't complain, 'cos that's one more than you'd get in Zaire -
So don't hang around and be foolish
Do something constructive with your weekend -
From Monday morning I work for Friday nights
Collect my wages, then try to paint on the smell of soap -

'Cause tonight I get ready early
Score what I need and go pick a girl up
It seems like ages since we had some fun -

Here comes the weekend - I get to see the girls
Long live the weekend, the weekend is here
(the weekend starts here)

Everything feels right now
I know why I'm alive now
Everything else is a lie now
Now I know why I'm here

Here comes the weekend - I'm gonna do my head
Long live the weekend, the weekend is dead




HEY MISTER - Paul Weller
Because it's real you think it's a joke
Because it's on your doorstep you have to have a poke
At someone
It's only a cliche because it's all true
Time after time it happens through and through
To a new generation

You're just so smug in your elected seat
You've got your papers sorted out but you can't find your feet
Well, I'm not surprised

Hey mister with your head in the clouds
You can't see further than the shillings and pounds
The things that you say don't mean nothing anymore
You have no control they've broken down all the doors
And the only way that you'll fix them up
Is another war

If you think I'm gonna die in a financial war
You've got another thing coming and
And what's more there's lots like me

You juggle lives around with the stroke of a pen
But we've paid to see that move and now we won't pay again
The cost is too high

Hey mister your smiles been erased
You can't understand why we're losing face
Perhaps it's the promises that you never kept
"Never had it so good"
Well do you want a bet?




I
I GOT BY IN TIME - Paul Weller
Saw a girl that I used to know
I was deep in thought at the time
To recognise the face at first
'Cause I was probably looking at mine
Well she was the only girl I've ever loved
But my folks didn't dig her so much
I was young
This is serious
To me she was the world (she was my world now)
I thought I'd never live without her,
But I got by in time

Well let me tell you now,
Saw a guy that I used to know
Man he'd changed so much
I think it hurt him to say 'hello',
'Cause he hardly opened his mouth
Yeah well he was my best friend a few years ago
Truly inseperable

We were young
We were full of ideals
We were gonna pull this whole world
But something happened
I didn't know why
But that's the way that it goes.

I suppose,
What you say - what you do
Don't mean nothing, nothing at all
And all the bonds you make between ya
Can be broken any time you want now
Please tell me if my philosophy's wrong
I've got to know the truth
I don't mean to offend anyone but,
You know it's something that I do, oh-

So nice to see you tonight,
And I'm so glad that you came
Some of the people standing outside, say
Sure feel the same
Yeah my point is in a round about way
Given time he'll always forget
'Cause the memories
That ... me on
To me everything (you're everything now)
And it always will be mine, yeah
And no one can take them away




I GOT YOU (I FEEL GOOD) - James Brown
I feel good
I knew that I would now
So good
So good
I've got you
I feel nice
Like sugar and spice
So nice
So nice
I've got you

When I hold in my arms
I know that you do me no harm




I NEED YOU (FOR SOMEONE) - Paul Weller
I need you to keep me straight,
When the world don't seem so great,
And it's hard enough you know
I need you to be around
When my conscience brings me down
And the world feels so obscure

I want you to be the one
Who tells me off when I do wrong,
And you know I can be bad

I need you, I need you
Say you'll stay, make my day

Now what have I done,
Was it something I said - oh dear

I need you to turn me off,
When you think I've said enough,
To the extent of being a bore

I need you to tell me no
Slap my wrists and send me home
Tell me I can't come again

Now why are you crying -
Have I gone too far - again -




IN THE CITY - Paul Weller
In the city there's a thousand things I want to say to you
But whenever I approach you, you make me look a fool
I wanna say, I wanna tell you
About the young ideas
But you turn them into fears

In the city there's a thousand faces all shining bright
And those golden faces are under 25
They wanna say, they gonna tell ya
About the young idea
You better listen now you've said your bit-a

And I know what you're thinking
You still think I am crap
But you'd better listen man
Because the kids know where it's at

In the city there's a thousand men in uniforms
And I've heard they now have the right to kill a man
We wanna say, we gonna tell ya
About the young idea
And if it don't work, at least we said we've tried

In the city, in the city
In the city there's a thousand things I want to say to you




IN THE CROWD - Paul Weller
When I'm in the crowd, I don't see anything
My mind goes a blank, in the humid sunshine
when I'm in the crowd I don't see anything
I fall into a trance, at the supermarket
the noise flows me along, as I catch falling cans
of baked beans on toast, technology is the most.

and everyone seems just like me,
they struggle hard to set themselves free
and their waiting for the change

When I'm in the crowd, I can't remember my name
and my only link is a pint of Wall's ice cream
when I'm in the crowd - I don't see anything

Sometimes I think that it's a plot,
an equilibrium melting pot
The government sponsors underhand
When I'm in the crowd
When I'm in the crowd
When I'm in the crowd

And everyone seems that they're acting a dream
'cause they're just not thinking about each other
and they're taking orders, which are media spawned
and they should know better, now you have been warned

and don't forget you saw it here first
When I'm in the crowd
When I'm in the crowd
When I'm in the crowd

And life just simply moves along
in simple houses, simple jobs
and no ones wanting for the change
When I'm in the crowd
When I'm in the crowd
When I'm in the crowd




IN THE MIDNIGHT HOUR - Wilson Pickett
I'm gonna wait 'til the midnight hour
That's when my love comes tumbling down
I'm gonna wait 'til the midnight hour
That's when there's no one else around
I'm gonna take you, gonna hold you
Do all the things I told ya
Midnight hour, oh baby

I'm gonna wait 'til the stars come out
And see the sweet look in your eyes
I'm gonna wait 'til the midnight hour
That's when my love begins to shine

Well you're the only girl I know
Who really loves me so
Midnight hour, oh yeah

I'm gonna wait 'til the midnight hour
That's when my love comes tumbling down
I'm gonna wait 'til the midnight hour
That's when there's no one else around

I'm gonna take you, gonna hold you
Do all the things I told ya
Midnight hour, oh baby

Yes I am




IN THE STREET, TODAY - Paul Weller/David Waller
In the street today
Murder on the terraces
And fools in high places
It's all so sickening
And we're so satisfied -

In the street tonight

Hate on every pavement
Paranoia on shop doorways
The kids want some action
And who can fucking blame them now

It's all so sickening, and we're so satisfied




INNOCENT MAN - Bruce Foxton
Nothing seems too clear to him anymore
Oh funny how he's the one who's always so confused
People point the finger - they all look at him
Well can't somebody tell him what he's done wrong
Well what has he done to you or someone
Nobody speaks or should he know
Things are all a blank - nothing clear to him anymore
Can't think straight - can't sort himself out

Innocent, that man
You know he is innocent
Don't lie
You know you have
Innocent, he'll die
If the truth is missed out

The time has come
For that man to be hung
I hope you're convinced
That he was the one

It's alright for you - just another case
And you don't give a damn - just another face
Well what about his friends, his family, and his wife
You don't have the right to take that man's life

An innocent man
Condemed by you
Instead of him - it should be you

Innocent, that man
You know he is innocent
Don't lie
You know you have
Innocent, he'll die
If the truth is missed out




IT'S TOO BAD - Paul Weller
All we seem to do is talk about it
we always end up shouting about it
there was a time we could overcome it
But it's too late to say we'll just forget it
It's too bad that we had to break up
and too much said for us to every make up
I could get by if I could just forget you
but things remind me and I feel so sad now

I could say I'm sorry
but it's not the point is it?
you want to play your games and
you don't mind if I get hurt

Same old feeling everytime I see you
and every avenue I walk I'm behind you
your back is turned and your eyes are closed girl
you move in circles that are out of my reach now




I'VE CHANGED MY ADDRESS - Paul Weller
Knew the time to leave had come when you pointed out your ring
Never could see what was in this matrimony thing
Baby, baby, baby you sure made a noise when I left
And your father started shouting lest you ironed my shirts 'fore I left

Would've liked to explain first but it was a split decision thing
Couldn't see me settling down with a mortgage and a kid
Now I hear you've been looking for me
Combing every single inch
You'll probably find me in Hyde Park
Try the hotel first then a bench

Baby, baby, baby I've changed my address
I didn't mean to make you cry but I know it's for the best
Baby, baby, baby I've changed my address
It's OK being in love girl, but then fun is second best

No one's gonna tie me down
Nobody tell me what to do
Don't you see I've got to be free
Sorry baby that's the way it is - get with me
I said maybe!

I didn't mean to break your heart and I know it's not your choice
Better think of it this way, there's other fools to entice
That's right!

Baby, baby, baby I've changed my address
I didn't mean to make you cry but I know it's for the best
Baby, baby, baby I've changed my address
It's OK being in love girl, but then fun is second best

Baby, baby, baby I've changed my address
I didn't mean to make you cry but I'm sure it's for the best
Baby, baby, baby I've changed my address
It's OK being in love girl, but then fun is second best
