  Sunshine Comes


if it's all in the back of your mind
and someday a voice you find
and i will hear you say
what's holding you back today

and we'll take this government down
and the king with his plastic crown
who'll only want you to be
the kind of person he'll never see

when the sunshine comes (x4)
i hope it comes your way

you think you're safe in the underground
and you think they won't cut you down
but you can come with me
when i work out where i want to be

when the sunshine comes (x4)
i hope it comes your way
it comes your way (x3)

  Tell Me How


the time is always right in your world
no one's uptight in your world
won't you tell me how
won't you take me now

the sun is always out in your sky
you've got no reason to lie
won't you tell me how
won't you take me now

maybe i'm lost to the world i am in
won't you tell me where do i begin

the moon is always out in your eyes
you cut no one down to size
won't you tell me how
won't you take me now

maybe i'm lost to the world i am in
won't you tell me where do i begin

maybe i'm lost to the world i am in
won't you tell me where do i begin
maybe i'm blind to the ones that i let in
won't you tell me where do i begin
where do i begin

  No Surprises


i come out cold as the warm sun rises
i come out clean but i wear my disguises
now everything is changing
and there's no surprises

if i come out clean will i be cleaner than you
i might come out clean but i walk when i do
now everyone is changing
back into the same old thing

and there's no surprises
there's no surprises
as the warm sun rises

i come out cold as the warm sun rises 
i come out clean but i wear my disguises
i come out cold as the warm sun rises 
i come out clean but i wear my disguises
and there's no surprises

  Black Umbrella


i got my black umbrella 
to shelter me from falling rain
but i forgot to tell her
she can join me and do the same

one thing that will always remain
when you think everything is going down the drain
i'll keep you warm and dry
warm and dry

with my black umbrella
to shelter you from what's to come
but i forgot to tell her
she can join me as my only one

but one thing that will always remain
when you think everything is going down the drain
i'll keep you warm and dry
warm and dry

i got more than love to cover you
to cover you

i got my black umbrella (x2)
and i forgot to tell her
'bout my black umbrella

  Out My Window


people waiting out my window
just waiting for their day to come
but i wait for the sun
and i'm waiting but some days
it don't come

a woman pushing a shopping trolley
and i could fit myself inside
but i wait for the train
and i'm waiting
it didn't come again, come again

out my window i can see
someone moving just like me
out my window waiting for
an open door, an open door

and i wait for the sun
and i'm waiting but some days
it don't come

out my window (x2)

  Watching My Door


i cannot avoid to feed
and cater for every need
for the hound that is watching my door
i only shake the lead
and he comes back to me
the hound that is watching my door

but ain't it always the way
when you forget what you say
and using all of your might
trying to make it right

i cannot avoid the fight
should he crawl back tonight
the hound that is watching my door

but ain't it always the way
when you forget what you say
and using all of your might
trying to make it right
just trying to make it right

i cannot avoid to feed
and cater for every need
but i don't want him around anymore
i think i know just what he's looking for
the hound that is watching my door
my door (x2)

  Underwater Dream


my green kathleen
the water in my underwater dream
i know she's there
and if you're going to show, won't you let me know

cause i have waited far too long to tell you
i have waited far too long

my green kathleen
i only want to know just where you've been
for i know she's there
and if you want to go, won't you let me know
let me know

i have waited far too long to tell you
i have waited far too long
far too long

my green kathleen
i only want to know just where you've been
my green kathleen
won't you tell me of everything you've seen
water in my underwater dream (x2)

  4:18


4:18 and my mind's gone green
but i just don't know where my head has been
4:18 and my mind's gone green
but i just don't know where i've been

so have you got what it takes to float
on a sea of peas in a gravy boat
i've got my ticket for that ride
but i'm not coming back tonight

and what you see and what you hear
it's in your eyes and in your ear
and what you learn and what you don't
won't you step inside my empty mind

4:18 and my mind's gone green
but i just don't know all the things i've seen
4:18 and my mind's gone green
but i just don't know where i've been

and what you see and what you hear
in your eyes and in your ear
and what you learn and what you don't
won't you step inside my empty mind  
step into my empty mind
into my empty mind

4:18 and my mind's gone green (x4)
my empty mind (x2)

  Two Stones


well i'm on my way
as i was before
but i'm back today
just to take some more

when your cup is full
but your cupboard's bare
well i am not here
but i'm everywhere

and how long will you think this is forever
and how hard can you hold on to a feather
and how long can you rub two stones together, together

when your light is on
and your lights go out
won't you come round here
just to ease my doubt

cause you take so long
to get things right
i spend my praise
and a wasted night

and how long will you think this is forever
and how hard can you hold on to a feather
and how long can you rub two stones together, together
alright

together (x4)

  Better Road


there is no written rule
for how life can be cruel
you work it all out for yourself
watching others go through hell

if it's just a ride that we are on
i'll hold on tight til the ride has gone
and gone on to a better road for me
and it's a better road for you

i could not help but stare
at the the girl with the rainbow hair
although it was not right
she said i'd seen a light

she'll hold on tight til the ride is on
and hold on too til the ride is gone
it's gone on to a better road for me
and it's a better road for you

if it's just a ride that we are on
i'll hold on tight til the ride has gone
it's gone on to a better road for me
and it's a better road for you

a better road for me
and it's a better road, a better road for you

  Getting By


this is for you, whoever you are
i've stayed inside and i've travelled far
i make no bones, no excuses i give
so this is for you, wherever you live

this is for you, whatever you think
keep me afloat, or let me sink
i'm happy to go, i'm happy to stay
this is for you, whatever you say

if there's money in your bag
break it out and jump in the line

i always seem to end up in those places
with faceless names and nameless faces
so stop in your tracks and put down your bags
this is for you, who go through the paces

if there's money in your bag
break it out and jump in the line
if there's money in your bag
you can take it home if you like, if you like

i know it's crazy but there's one thing left to try
i know it's crazy before you die
well you must try to get by
getting by

getting by (x7)
yeah we're all getting by
bye bye
