Twilight comes and the mood's complete
Gonna hit the street grab some of that night time beat
My heart is beat beat beating like a drum
The night is in my veins we're gonna have some fun tonight

Light the fuse I must ignite
I'm gonna set the world alight
Light the fuse I must ignite
I'm gonna set the world alight

I wanna see you burn

I killed the cigarette I killed the light
I'm killing time the heat kills me on a hot summer night
I'm gonna dream a life live a dream
Hell for leather in my scheme of things tonight

Light the fuse I must ignite
I'm gonna set the world alight
Light the fuse I must ignite
I'm gonna set the world alight

Big city all scratched out revenge is not so sweet
Once proud once so devout they're tired and they are weak
They came from east to west counting up the cost
Red star soon to arrive they know that all is lost

And only the wounded remain
The generals have all left the game
With no will to fight
They'll fade with the light
There's nobody left they can blame

What once was decadence now's nothing but raized land
The end so imminent big city's not so grand
They came they saw they conquered people hid in fear
They looted raped and plundered angry russian bear

And only the wounded remain
The generals have all left the game
With no will to fight
They'll fade with the light
There's nobody left they can blame

Reichstag flies red flag signalling the end
Party now bad bad suicide the end
There's some who think that golden years might lie ahead
No leaders anymore in the bunker dead

And only the wounded remain
The generals have all left the game
With no will to fight
They'll fade with the light
There's nobody left they can blame

And only the wounded remain
The generals have all left the game
With no will to fight
They'll fade with the light
The whole world is going insane

Did you ever see a man turned inside out
He can come and go without a sound
They say ok when they turn you down
'Cos someones always smiling when they really frown

You turf me out can't keep me down
'Cos I'm a stranger on the town
Don't put me down

And I only want a place to rest my head
But if looks could kill I might as well be dead
Get me on my feet take me to the door
I'll face the law might even get a bed

You turf me out can't keep me down
'Cos I'm a stranger on the town
Don't put me down
You turf me out can't keep me down
'Cos I'm a stranger on the town
Don't put me down

Don't need me
Won't feed me now
Just say the word
Just smile as I'm thrown out

You turf me out can't keep me down
'Cos I'm a stranger on the town
Don't put me down

And the city's new so the faces change
I know they're different yet they act the same
I've read the script and I know the score
I know it's only time before I'm shown the door

You turf me out can't keep me down
'Cos I'm a stranger on the town
Don't put me down
You turf me out can't keep me down
'Cos I'm a stranger on the town
Don't put me down

I've got some money
So do you love me now?
Now will you run me out
And they wonder why I shout

Even in a crowd when you're all alone
It's so far from home there's faces all around
They stare mean and proud you've gotta get away
You gotta get away

So I'm a stranger
And though you put me down you know I
Aint no clown and you're a stranger
'Cause I'll see you around
When the chips are down

And I'm a stranger on the town....

Ooh ooh the city's new the faces change
I know they're different yet they act the same

'Cos I'm a stranger on the town

And I only wanna place to rest my head
If looks could kill I might as well be dead

'Cos Im a stranger on the town
Yes I am

And everyone tries to put you down
Nobody wants to have you around

'Cos I'm a stranger on the town
Yes I am

Won't you tell me the reason why
He goes out almost every night?
He never goes too far he's always
The one who's got it right

He's got charm
He's got style
He's got a dozen girls
Tell me why
I don't know why
He's got a dozen girls

Now he's always the one with all the hooks
When it comes to making it with you
Now I would be there in his place if only
I knew what it is I had to do

He's got charm
He's got style
He's got a dozen girls
Tell me why
I don't know why
He's got a dozen girls
He's got charm
He's got style
He's got a dozen girls
Tell me why
I don't know why
He's got a dozen girls

He's alright and he dont care
He's got thermal underwear

She wanders alone through the night
A child with eyes burning bright
She extends her arms for an embrace a tiny smile
Her ruby lips on her doll- like face

The danger's a mystery here
As she invites you to hold her near
Her mirrored image could not be linked to
A woman's mind so sharp and so distinct

Like a swimmer in a secret sea
Undecayed for all eternity
Claudia
Better stay away from Claudia

The silkiness of her lips
As she bends low to kiss
A tiny seductress in ringlets and pearls you reel
In madness as the whole world about you whirls

Like the tinkle of a small silver bell
Her voice will put you under her spell
A crushed crysanthemum in her hand a beautiful doll of death
She'll take your dying breath

Like a swimmer in a secret sea
Undecayed for all eternity
Claudia
Better stay away from Claudia
Like a swimmer in a secret sea
Undecayed for all eternity
Claudia
Better stay away from Claudia

I do expect you might have heard
Through state research an old jailbird
About the guys
The gun fury of riot forces

A warning sounds they're dressed to kill
They're out of bounds we've had our fill
Who dares resist
The gun fury of riot forces

They're glad to be your friend
They hate the public they defend
They call the shots from start to end
Shots from start to end

A handbag man he makes a snatch
In riot cops he's met his match
He lies dead before
The gun fury of riot forces

A warning sounds they're dressed to kill
They're out of bounds we've had our fill
Who dares resist
The gun fury of riot forces

They're glad to be your friend
They hate the public they defend
They call the shots from start to end

These feelings locked inside my head
I try to reason out of bed
These feelings locked inside of me
Will never see the light of day
Slowly upwards faster down
Reach the top and hit the ground

So many things we left unsaid
So many feelings left for dead
A love affair like this could last
I take a trip back through the past
It tears my heart out deep inside
To think of times i spent inside

The pleasure and the pain
It tells me that I'm in love again
The pleasure and the pain

Take a look deep in my eyes
See the emptiness inside
See where forest fires rage
In vain I try to turn the page
But nothing that i say or do
Will ever make me forget you

The pleasure and the pain
It tells me that I'm in love again
The pleasure and the pain

Life goes on and on and on
If you think it's al gone wrong
Go on and on and on

Life's a con a con a con
If you think you can't go on
Go on and on and on

But always remember
This is the happiest day of your life

Life goes on and on and on
If you think it's al gone wrong
Go on and on and on

Life's a con a con a con
If you think you can't go on
Go on and on and on

And as the years they move along
I see it now, there's something wrong
'Cos life is for always
Take your time
Who cares what fools say
I don't mind
'Cos this is my day
I'll live it my way
Today, there's just today

Life goes on and on and on
If you think it's al gone wrong
Go on and on and on

Life's a con a con a con
If you think you can't go on
Go on and on and on

Bad time
You know I saw him in a movie with his leather on
Bad time
The fists were flying and the guns did roar
Bad time
You know I kinda liked the way he sung his cowboy songs
Bad time
But I can't listen to them anymore

Bad time for me
Bad time for you
Bad time for bonzo too
You know that bonzo's always dreaming
He'd like you to be dreaming too
Bad time for me
Bad time for you
Bad time for bonzo too
You know that bonzo's always scheming
He'd like you to be scheming too
He'd like you to be scheming too

Bad time
You know there was a time when no-one knew the fun he'd start
Bad time
As actors go he was an 'also ran'
Bad time
But now old bonzo's gone and got himself
Another part
Bad time
We'd best re-write the script while we can

Bad time for me
Bad time for you
Bad time for bonzo too
You know that bonzo's always dreaming
He'd like you to be dreaming too
Bad time for me
Bad time for you
Bad time for bonzo too
You know that bonzo's always screaming
He'd like you to be screaming too
He'd like you to be screaming too

Bad time for me
Bad time for you
Bad time for bonzo too

No no no no no no no
No no no no no no no
No no no no no no no nooh

Bad time for me
Bad time for you
Bad time for bonzo too
You know that bonzos always dreaming He'd like you to be dreaming too
Bad time for me
Bad time for you
Bad time for bonzo too
You know that bonzo's always scheming
He'd like you to be scheming too

Bad time for me
Bad time for you
Bad time for bonzo too
You know that bonzo's always dreaming
He'd like you to be dreaming too
Bad time for me
Bad time for you
Bad time for bonzo too
You know that bonzo's always screaming
He'd like you to be screaming too

Bad time for me
Bad time for you
Bad time for bonzo too
You know that bonzo's always dreaming
He'd like you to be dreaming too

Bad time for me
Bonzo is dreaming
Bad time for me
Bonzo is scheming

Under the floor again
Once I was up and in the air but now I'm down
Goodbye to all my friends
Forget I ever was the mole goes underground

Under the floor again
Eight years of hide and seek no peek of me is seen
I skip the law again
The to and fro the come and go and miss the scene

But who was the girl we saw last night
Wearing a frock and gown she's kinda paralysed
A door in the floor a head materialised
I'm sure that I saw a face I recognised

Don't say a word
Just stay here at my leisure
No sound is heard
Can't take my simple pleasures
Like walking in the park
And taking in the air
Just lock me in the dark
It's no fun

Under the floor again
My baccy bets and beer are here and all I need
I'm feeling sore again
Three feet of life is all I have and rats to feed

Won't say a word
Just stay here at my leisure
No sound is heard
Can't take my simple pleasures
Like breathing in the air
It's cleaner than the stuff
I've had in recent months
It's no fun

Under the floor again
Once I was up and in the air but now I'm down

I say hello don't think that I don't know you're listening to me
But please don't bother me
Don't bother me

You bought this thing so I would sing about that awful nuclear thing
I hope won't bother me
Won't bother me

Your rolling stones and pop star clones don't even want to hear their moans
I say don't bother me
Don't bother me

Those men of steel I really feel are quite extremely unreal
I wish they'd all just fade away

So here am I under the sky can I ask you
Without a lie to please don't bother me
Don't bother me

I'm in a hole just like a mole
Don't give a toss lady in her mink stole
Don't bother me
Don't bother me

The people change they rearrange but stay the same
It's awfully strange
But they don't bother me
Don't bother me

Until the day their troubles stray on to my patch
Like tony hatch's 'crossroads' theme
Please go away
Go away
Not interested
