COMPULSION
© Joe Crow

Charms in Limited Supply
And Refusing to Stretch
That Indefinable Nothing
Somehow Keeps Pushing You
Finding the Right Words
Can be a Problem
How Many Times Must it be Said
There's no Plan
It Had to Happen
Got to Move on Sometime
And It's About Time
By Putting One Foot in Front of Another
And Repeating the Process
Cross Over the Street
You're Free to Change Your Mind
Strength Through Diversity
Couldn't Have Put it More Plainly
Got to Move on Sometime
Got to Move on Sometime
Got to Move on Sometime
Got to Move on Sometime

Charms in Limited Supply
Under Threat of Extinction
That Indefinable Nothing
Somehow Motivates You
Finding the Right Words
Can be a Problem
How Many times Must it be Said
There's no Plan
It Had to Happen

Got to Move on Sometime
And it's About Time
By Putting One Foot in Front of Another
And Repeating the Process
Cross Over the Street
You're Free to Change Your Mind
Strength Through Diversity

Couldn't Have Put it More Plainly
Got to Move on Sometime

IN A MANNER OF SPEAKING
© 1985 Winston Tong

In a Manner of Speaking
I Just Want to Say
That I Could Never Forget the Way
You Told Me Everything
By Saying Nothing
In a Manner of Speaking
I Don't Understand
How Love in Silence Becomes Reprimand

But the Way I Feel About You
Is Beyond Words

Oh Give Me the Words
Give Me the Words
That Tell Me Nothing
Oh Give Me the Words
Give Me the Words
That Tell Me Everything

In a Manner of Speaking
Semantics Won't Do
In This Life That We Live
We Only Make do
And the Way That We Feel
Might Have to be Sacrificed

So In a Manner of Speaking
I Just Want to Say
That Like You I Should Find a Way
To Tell You Everything
By Saying Nothing

Oh Give Me the Words
Give Me the Words
That Tell Me Nothing
Oh Give Me the Words
Give Me the Words
Give Me the Words
Give Me the Words
Give Me the Words

SMILE IN THE CROWD
© 1982 Vini Reilly

You Turned Me Away
Away From Your Actions
Forced by the Violence
That Always Surrounds You

I Want Your Special Smile
A Smile in This Crowd
I Want Your Special Smile
A Smile in This Crowd

You Burnt Yourself Out
In That Silence
I Have to Tell You
I Ache for You Still
The Sound of My Words
Is Always so Shocking
They Get Much Louder
Each Time I Speak

I Want Your Special Smile
A Smile in This Crowd
I Want Your Special Smile
A Smile in This Crowd

Signals of Progress
We're Growing much older
I'm Afraid that I'll Leave
And My Ache Never Goes

I Want Your Special Smile
A Smile in This Crowd
I Want Your Special Smile
A Smile in This Crowd

GONE
© 1981 Glaisher/Peake/Fellows/Brown
So Tired So Soon
What Happened to You
What Happened to You
You Got Lost
Somewhere Between
There and Here
Somewhere Between
So Far So Near
You Got Lost
Somewhere Between
What Happened to You

Someone Has Been Removed
What Happened to Her
What Happened to Her
She Got Lost
Somewhere Between
There and Here
Somewhere Between
So Far So Near
She Got Lost
Somewhere Between
What Happened to Her

You Used to be so Young
Used to be so Young
It Was Going to Take So Long
It Had Almost Gone

What is His Name
What is His Name
What is His Name

NEVER TURN YOUR BACK ON MOTHER EARTH
© 1974 Ron Mael

When She's on Her Best Behaviour
Don't be Tempted by Her Favours
Never Turn Your Back on Mother Earth

Towns are Hurled From A to B
By Hands That Looked So Smooth to Me
Never Turn Your Back on Mother Earth

Grasp at Straws That Don't Want Grasping
Gaze at Clouds That Come Down Crashing
Never Turn Your Back on Mother Earth

Three Days and Two Nights Away From My Friends
Amen to Anything That Brings a Quick Return
To My Friends
To My Friends
Never Turn Your Back on Mother Earth

I'll Admit I Was Unfaithful
But From Now on I'll be More Faithful
Never Turn Your Back on Mother
Never Turn Your Back on Mother
Never Turn Your Back on Mother Earth

MOTHERLESS CHILD
Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child
Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child
Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child
A Long Way From Home
A Long Way From Home
True Believer
A Long Way From Home
A Long Way From Home
