1.	Edible Hearts 03:42	lyrics	buy track
Edible Hearts My friends don’t talk to me whenever we meet I cross over to avoid them in the street They’re all such a drag, they think the same of me too I don’t know why we bother it’s just something to do We’ve got…..Edible Hearts We’ve got…..Edible Hearts Such…Edible Hearts We’ve got nothing else but you I pity them for something else (apart from knowing me) I wish they’d go somewhere else, find someone else to see We hate each other’s company, hate what each other loves to do Before you introduced your friend I knew I would hate her too We’ve got…..Edible Hearts We’ve got…..Edible Hearts Such…Edible Hearts We’ve got nothing else but you I hang with cowards and fools, they all make me look so good I like friends with no personality, then I get all the girls I say awful clothes look good, I say “Oh, I like your hair” I tell them what they want to hear, these my friends the proverbial squares We’ve got…..Edible Hearts We’ve got…..Edible Hearts Such…Edible Hearts There is no-one quite like you
2.	Echoes 03:44	lyrics	buy track
Echoes The words just don't come out I want to scream and shout The cracks appearing all around And now I'm all alone Sat by the telephone I hear the echoes of the past The lines gone dead, there's no response All I hear is echo, echo, echo round my head My search is all in vain Can't you just feel my pain It seems to follow me around And now I’m so engaged No call to be made No bells are ringing in my brain The lines gone dead, there's no response All I hear is echo, echo, echo round my head I feel so alive No more my thoughts collide The sound of echoes in the past Hey, Hey, All I hear is echo, echo, echo The lines gone dead, there's no response All I hear is echo, echo, echo round my head The lines gone dead, there's no response All I hear is echo, echo, echo round my head All I hear is echo, echo, echo
3.	Jo-Jo 04:56	lyrics	buy track
Jo-Jo Jo-Jo got it easy these days, she really is a catch Pick and choose from heavens finest, she is an ideal match Flying high and lying so low She likes to smoke her weed Hiding out in crack whore houses Living life on speed Don't you know Jo-Jo Hotel, motel no show Don't you know Another face, no recognition She hides behind closed doors Flick of the wrist, no lip stick kisses The pleasure is all yours Call her number, call out her name She really is the one Turn out the lights, turn on your feelings It's really so much fun – fun, fun, fun Don't you know Jo-Jo Hotel, motel no show Don't you know
4.	Song for Rainy Afternoons 03:54	lyrics	buy track
Song for rainy afternoons It was really nothing at Just a little love to brighten the day It was only fun Only a game I play to keep out of the sun She was not my kind of girl Something to do indoors when it rain She was no-one special at all But her eyes shone and I couldn’t say no And if I ask her to stay She’ll say she has to go away So there’s really little point in falling in love It was really no big deal Just a kiss in the shade of the heat It was really just an act Just a fling when I sing (when I gasp) She was not my default choice Something she said made me stay that night Then I started to pray fast Our eyes meet and I could say no Got my needle and thread, needle and thread… yeah Muck with my head, muck with my head There was nothing to explain Just to feel when I feel alone She was never meant to stay Just a hand I hold when it snows I don’t remember her name But when I walked away my heart turned cold It was just a game I play But it looks like it backfired again
5.	Girl Who Looks Like You 04:37	lyrics	buy track
A Girl who looks like You The profile of a killer is watching me Obsession’s taken over - Leave me be Looking round I can see Faces in the mirror looking back at me All that I can hear is Love songs on the radio One in a million - the feeling grows Striking that match or strike a pose Blinded by the light Burning at the heart of you everyday All that I can hear is Love songs on the radio I’m in love, in love with a girl who looks like you I’m in love, in love with a girl who looks like you love is blind A vision of the future - it don’t add up Cynical outlook don’t interrupt All I want to do is get on to your wave length, wanna be like you All that I can hear is Love songs on the radio

I'm a Poseur Somehow, some way I'm gonna make it big someday Here now, gone soon First class travel all the way to the moon I've got the hair, I've got the move With looks like these I just can't lose I've got the clothes, I've got the tunes I’m on my way up to the front of the queue I'm a Poseur I'm a Poseur yeah, yeah, yeah I'm a Poseur, that’s what I do Get out of my way, I'm better than you These old men can't rock Preen my feathers like a strutting cock Flick my hair, the girls all swoon Smash those Radio Making fools I got the eyes, I got the groove Imoralise is what I do I got the band, I got the heat Success is coming it tastes so sweet yeah I'm a Poseur I'm a Poseur yeah, yeah, yeah I'm a Poseur, that’s what I do Get out of my way, I'm better than you 20 years have passed Looks are fading Hair receding fast I got the suit, got the car Mondeo and a sales rep job I'm a Poseur I'm a Poseur yeah, yeah, yeah I'm a Poseur, that’s what I do
7.	Lucky Stars 04:37	lyrics	buy track
Lucky Stars All the images come and go Another time that I don't know I'm not here, I'm somewhere else I'm set to overload A blank book, not got the code I'm not here, I'm somewhere else See a reflection that never lies What can I see through your eyes I'm not here, I'm somewhere else Another planet that I don't know Lucky stars, got my radio Another planet that I don't know Lights go out at the picture show Oh-oh Oh-oh Iucky stars got my radio Oh-oh Oh-oh Iucky stars got my radio and I don't know where I am I zoned out on Monday night Came round and I'd lost the fight I'm not here, I'm somewhere else Crossed the line to another place A look of fear, get out of my face I'm not here, I'm somewhere else Switched off left it all behind Should have looked, should've seen the sign I'm not here, I'm somewhere else
8.	Where have all the Flowers Gone? 04:05	lyrics	buy track
Where have all the Flowers Gone? I turned the clock back today I need a little more time with you Now you’re gone and I’m stood still The sands of time Take a lily to signify all the hopes and dreams alive Place a picture close to your heart, It will never fade Where have all the flowers gone? I think of you and life goes on and on Life it still goes on I never saw your face, but it cuts deep down inside Flowers so beautiful although the petals died To all of those you’ve left behind There’s a grief you can’t compare All the tears that I have cried Since you’ve been gone Where have all the flowers gone? I think of you and life goes on and on Life it still goes on
9.	I'm a Tribute (To Me) 02:53	lyrics	buy track
I’m a Tribute (to Me) I'm just a tribute to myself, Another pseudonym I wanna fade away Un-social media Out on another limb just a game to play I'm a tribute I’m just a tribute I'm a tribute to me ah-ha I'm a tribute I’m just a tribute I'm a tribute to me I'm pretty, pretty, pretty bored with society I'm not going out Not me, I'm someone else Well it Looks like me But with an attitude I'm a tribute I’m just a tribute I'm a tribute to me ah-ha I'm a tribute I’m just a tribute I'm a tribute to me People watching, making up my life Cameras watching me, the beady eye in the sky I’ve got to let it go I'm a tribute I’m just a tribute I'm a tribute to me ah-ha I'm a tribute I’m just a tribute I'm a tribute to me
10.	Talk About You 04:30	lyrics
Talk about You The world is spinning round and round Makes me feel dizzy Just like the moon is a balloon And it is there for me You chase the light, you get it right And it is clear to see (it’s oh so clear to see) Then there is you and me and me Let’s just talk about you The child inside came out to play But he won’t play the game A tangled web is all spun out Don’t you know my name? Inside the box, my thoughts are locked And I am so confused (oh so-so confused) Then there is you and me and me Let’s just talk about you Talk about you, talk about you All that you do, talk about you Talk about me, talk about you Talk about you – it’s all true Manipulate to take control, I’m in the driving seat Force a square peg in to the hole Now I can’t find my feet The dizzy lows, deflect the blows No scars are visible Then there is me and you and you Still not talking about me Talk about you, talk about you All that you do, talk about you Talk about me, talk about you Talk about you – it’s all true
