In a town in the east
The parishioners were visited upon By a curious beast And his eyes numbered but one and shone like the sun And a glance beckoned the immediate loss Of a cherished one It was the coming of the (Black Shuck) Black Shuck (Black Shuck) Black Shuck (Black Shuck) That dog don't give a fuck Black Shuck (Black Shuck) Black Shuck (Black Shuck) Black Shuck (Black Shuck) That dog don't give a fuck Flames licked round the sacred spire And the congregation's last line of defence Was engulfed in fire As the flaming priest stepped into the firing line On the business end of a beam of despair God, he took his own life During the coming of the (Black Shuck) Black Shuck (Black Shuck) Black Shuck (Black Shuck) That dog don't give a fuck Black Shuck (Black Shuck) Black Shuck (Black Shuck) Black Shuck (Black Shuck) That dog don't give a fuck A nimbus of blue light surrounds a crimson paw As he takes another fatal swipe At the Blytheburgh Church Door (Black Shuck) Black Shuck (Black Shuck) Black Shuck (Black Shuck) That dog don't give a fuck Black Shuck (Black Shuck) Black Shuck (Black Shuck) Black Shuck (Black Shuck) That dog don't give a fuck (Black Shuck) Black Shuck (Black Shuck) Black Shuck (Black Shuck) That dog don't give a fuck Black Shuck (Black Shuck) Black Shuck (Black Shuck) Black Shuck (Black Shuck) That dog don't give a fuck Woof! 02. Get Your Hands Off My Woman
You are drunk and surly
In Latino lover mode We all know what's on your agenda We've broken the code I've got no right to lay claim to her frame She's not my possession You cunt. Get your hands off my woman motherfucker Get your hands off my woman motherfucker Octoped, you've got six hands too many And you can't keep them to yourself You're too fat and too old to marry So they left you on the shelf I've got no right to lay claim to her frame But you soiled my obsession You cunt. Get your hands off my woman motherfucker Get your hands off my woman motherfucker Get your hands off my woman motherfucker Get your hands off my woman motherfucker Ow! Get your hands off my woman motherfucker Get your hands off my woman motherfucker 03. Growing On Me
I can't get rid of you
I don't know what to do I don't even know who is growing on who 'Cos everywhere I go you're there Can't get you out of my hair Can't pretend that I don't care - it's not fair I'm being punished for all my offences I wanna touch you but I'm afraid of the consequences I wanna banish you from whence you came But you're part of me now And I've only got myself to blame You're really growing on me (Or am I growing on you?) You're really growing on me (Or am I growing on you?) Any fool can see Sleeping in an empty bed Can't get you off my head I won't have a life until you're dead Yes, you heard what I said I wanna shake you off but you just won't go And you're all over me but I don't want anyone to know That you're attached to me, that's how you've grown Won't you leave me, leave me alone You're really growing on me (Or am I growing on you?) You're really growing on me (Or am I growing on you?) Any fool can see You're really growing on me (Or am I growing on you?) You're really growing on me (Or am I growing on you?) 04. I Believe In A Thing Called Love
Can't explain all the feelings that you're making me feel
My heart's in overdrive and you're behind the steering wheel Touching you, touching me touching you, god you're touching me I believe in a thing called love Just listen to the rhythm of my heart There's a chance we could make it now We'll be rocking 'til the sun goes down I believe in a thing called love Ooh! I wanna kiss you every minute, every hour, every day You got me in a spin but everythin' is A.OK! Touching you, touching me touching you, god you're touching me I believe in a thing called love Just listen to the rhythm of my heart There's a chance we could make it now We'll be rocking 'til the sun goes down I believe in a thing called love Ooh! Guitar! Touching you, touching me touching you, god you're touching me I believe in a thing called love Just listen to the rhythm of my heart There's a chance we could make it now We'll be rocking 'til the sun goes down I believe in a thing called love Ooh! 05. Love Is Only A Feeling
The first flush of youth was upon you when our eyes first met
And I knew that to you and into your life I had to get I felt light-headed at the touch of this stranger's hand An assault my defences systematically failed to withstand 'Cos you came at a time When the pursuit of one true love in which to fall Was the be all and end all Love is only a feeling (Drifting away) When I'm in your arms I start believing (It's here to stay) But love is only a feeling Anyway The state of elation that this unison of hearts achieved I had seen, I had touched, I had tasted and I truly believed That the light of my life Would tear a hole right through each cloud that scudded by Just to beam on you and I Love is only a feeling (Drifting away) When I'm in your arms I start believing (It's here to stay) But love is only a feeling Anyway, anyway Love is only a feeling (Drifting away) And we've got to stop ourselves believing (It's here to stay) 'Cos love is only a feeling Anyway. 06. Givin' Up

Stuck In A Rut
Kiss my arse, kiss my arse goodbye
Propelled by a carriage of aluminium am I No more to rot in this sty Turn my back on this shit-hole in the blink of an eye Gimme the keys You ain't gonna see me for dust The Barnby Bends ain't gonna get the better of me Gimme the keys To any old bucket of rust The Acle Straights are gonna take me to where I wanna be Stuck in a rut Stuck in a rut for eternity Stuck in a rut Stuck in a rut for eternity The road is long and the lights are bright Just 'cos you've lived here all your life doesn't make it alright And the Golden Mile is paved with shite Don't mind telling you I'm sick of walking up and down it every single fucking night Gimme the keys You ain't gonna see me for dust The Barnby Bends ain't gonna get the better of me Gimme the keys To any old bucket of rust The Acle Straights are gonna take me to where I wanna be Stuck in a rut Stuck in a rut for eternity Stuck in a rut Stuck in a rut for eternity Stuck in a rut Stuck in a rut for eternity Stuck in a rut Stuck in a rut for eternity 08. Friday Night
Hey you!
Do you remember me I used to sit next to you at school We indulged in all the extra-curricular activites We weren't particularly cool Monday cycling Tuesday gymnastics Dancing on a Friday night I got Bridge Club on Wednesday Archery on Thursday Dancing on a Friday night Hey you! Could you ever fall for me The way I fell for you And do you dwell upon the thoughts that I occupy Or do you give yourself things to do? Monday rowing Tuesday badminton Dancing on a Friday night I got ping pong on Wednesday Needlework on Thursday Dancing on a Friday night With you, with you Monday, Tuesday Wednesday, Thursday Dancing on a Friday night Let the music smother me Whole weekend recovery Dancing on a Friday night See the lady I adore Dancing on the dancing floor Dancing on a Friday night God, the way she moves me To write bad poetry Dancing on a Friday night With you. 09. Love On The Rocks With No Ice
You can't abide my showing fatigue
When you come home just to relay All the events that made your heart bleed And the ones that ruined your day We're not as close As everybody thinks In the eye of the storm We keep each other warm Love on the rocks You'd do anything for a quiet life Love on the rocks Love on the rocks with no ice Love on the rocks You'd do anything for a quiet life Love on the rocks Love on the rocks with no ice So many issues we should address 'Cos our lives just don't correlate All the emotions that we suppress Bite our tongues until it's too late We're not as close As we used to be - you and me In the eye of the storm We keep each other warm Love on the rocks You'd do anything for a quiet life Love on the rocks Love on the rocks with no ice Love on the rocks You'd do anything for a quiet life Love on the rocks Love on the rocks with no ice Love on the rocks You'd do anything for a quiet life Love on the rocks Love on the rocks with no ice Love on the rocks You'd do anything for a quiet life Love on the rocks Love on the rocks with no ice Love on the rocks with no ice 10. Holding My Own
Baby, everything has fallen into place
My life is so exciting now I've got my space Like a splash of water on my face Lately I'm doing what I can do to pleasure me I'm finding time to focus on my fantasies I'm satisfied in my own company I don't need your permission To take this matter in my own two hands 'Cos I'm holding my own Give or take a tear or two I'm holding my own No matter what I put myself through Lady, all we seem to do is talk about We take apart and analyse our ins and outs Honey, I would rather do without No-one to answer to I won't spend another lifetime begging you 'Cos I'm holding my own Give or take a tear or two I'm holding my own No matter what I put myself through I'm holding my own There's a spring in my stride There's a twinkle in my dying eyes 'Cos I'm holding my own Give or take a tear or two I'm holding my own No matter what I put myself through |
