Gazebo

I knew it was you from the minute
You strolled into the gazebo like you'd never been gone
And if this is a game, well, you'll win it
Oh, there were others, but you're still the first one
Your chair's right there, I guess you've seen it
It's funny how the years have gone and slipped away
Oh, but you haven't changed a bit, no, I mean it!
And you still say things that no one else would say

Oh, sure, you amused me
But you also confused me
Then you turned round and used me
I thought I'd forget you
I didn't want to upset you
So you went and I let you

You wouldn't believe all the time that I've wasted
Staring at the photographs you sent to me
But I remember, oh, exactly how you tasted
And just how much you really meant to me
Oh no, I'm seeing someone here, you don't know her
She's one in a million but she isn't you
And it could never be, well, quite as close as we were
I hate to say it, but I think it's true

Oh, sure, you amused me
But you also confused me
Then you turned round and used me
I thought I'd forget you
I didn't want to upset you
So you went and I let you

Get Smart

I heard exactly what you said but I know that he slept in our bed
You should really take more care because all it took was a single hair
How would you, how could you not think that I'd realise?!
You must know you're just so terrible at telling lies

And did you really think I might not find out where you were last night?
Believe me, darling, it wasn't hard, when you paid for the meal on your credit card!

No don't flip, here's a tip: all it needs is a little thought
This will surprise you, but I don't want you to get caught
That's a price that I'll pay to stop you going away
Keep telling your lies, I won't criticise if it means you will stay

And you should probably tell him not to phone unless you're sure that you are going to be alone
This hanging up without him saying a word was maybe fine just once, but it's becoming absurd!

No don't flip, here's a tip: all it needs is a little thought
This will surprise you, but I don't want you to get caught
That's a price that I'll pay to stop you going away
Keep telling your lies, I won't criticise if it means you will stay

That's a price that I'll pay to stop you going away
Keep telling your lies, I won't criticise if it means you will stay

That's a price that I'll pay to stop you going away
Keep telling your lies, I won't criticise if it means you will stay

Get Up And Go

When, finally, I wake up you're removing last night's makeup
You turn your head and then crawl back into bed
There's an element of danger sleeping with a complete stranger
But I confess, I'm so glad that you said yes
Because the moment I saw you I knew and I swore you'd be mine
Because you looked divine

And I can't help myself yawning; we didn't sleep 'til five this morning
Is this for keeps? Well at least 'til your mobile beeps
You take an age to read it and then immediately delete it
I didn't see the text but I know what's coming next
"I've got to change these sheets before he returns and learns that I've been doing this
I'm sorry I've ruined it, but, God, I just couldn't stop!"

I'm so glad you didn't
Until you got that call you didn't mention him at all
And I'm so glad you didn't
Okay, it wasn't right but it was such a perfect night

So I help you hide my presence; it reminds me of my adolescence
But this isn't fun; it feels like your boyfriend's won
But why are you so remorseful?
Look, it just happened and of course you will feel low, because you didn't say no

And I'm so glad you didn't
Until you got that call you didn't mention him at all
And I'm so glad you didn't
Okay, it wasn't right but it was such a perfect night
I'm so glad you didn't
Until you got that call you didn't mention him at all
And I'm so glad you didn't
Okay, it wasn't right but it was such a perfect night

Gigolo

Terry said some bigmouth might have asked you out
Terry said there's nothing to be scared about

So yeah, why are you not there?
Why's this 'phone still ringing?
If you're in, why don't you answer?
No, I can't believe you'd go
I can't believe you're seeing him
If you're in, why don't you answer?

Terry said you acted like a gigolo
Terry said that you would never stoop so low

So yeah, why are you not there?
Why's this 'phone still ringing?
If you're in, why don't you answer?
No, I can't believe you'd go
I can't believe you're seeing him
If you're in, why don't you answer?

So yeah, why are you not there?
Why's this 'phone still ringing?
If you're in, why don't you answer?
No, I can't believe you'd go
I can't believe you're seeing him
If you're in, why don't you answer

Girl On A Motorcycle

Why does your life have to be so full of sensational affairs?
Darling I'm staying home this time, it's dull but who cares?
You think you're fast but it won't last the year
When you're done living on the run
You'll find me waiting here

You're excited by people who abuse you
And I've decided that I can't play your game
The last thing that I want to do is lose you
But tonight our needs are not the same

When you say "Scream if you want to go faster"
Or "Crawl to me across the floor"
Oh, you seem to crave disaster
But girl, not any more

Why does your life have to be so full of sensational affairs?
Darling I'm staying home, it's dull but who cares?
You think you're fast but it won't last the year
When you're done living on the run
You'll find me waiting here

The dress you're wearing is certainly exciting
But you are scaring all your friends away
And I am tired of the scratching and the biting
It's time that I got right out of your way

Because your life full of sensational affairs
Darling I'm staying home this time, it's dull but who cares?
You think you're fast but it won't last the year
When you're done living on the run
You'll find me waiting here

Give My Love To Kevin

Why should I want to know his name?
What difference does it make?
You know I tried dead hard to keep away, I just had to call again
Where did you go last night?
Oh, what's that new place like?
Okay, I won't ask anymore questions and then you can't tell me lies

Well they always need good men
They're crying out for them
It's not the sort of job I'd do myself, but then I'm not him
Oh, he buys you pretty things
And what does your mother think?
I just can't bear to imagine you sharing a bed with him

Tell me why should I be upset?
Some kid I've never met
We better sort this out before I go and say something I'll regret
No, I'm sure it suits him
I'm not trying to be anything
Before I leave I want you to give my love to Kevin

Go, Man, Go

By the time you read this
I will be a world away
I decided I can't stay
I'm leaving, there, well now you know
I warned you I might go
But what I didn't mention then
Is that I'm never coming back again

Because it's go, man, go
Go, man, go
Go, man, go

Don't cry, I'm sorry it's goodbye
But my life's ground to a halt
And, no, it's not your fault
I'm leaving, what else should I do?
And I'm still in love with you
But please don't ask me when
Because I'm never coming back again

And it's go, man, go
Go, man, go
Go, man, go

I'm never ever coming back again
And it's go, man, go
Go, man, go
Go, man, go
Go, man, go

Go Out And Get 'Em Boy

You were a survivor after all; you never even called!
I didn't expect you to
Now, oh there's such a lot you've done and you're only twenty-one
Yes, you're only twenty-one

Oh, oh there's just something; something I noticed
That there's a whole world out there but it's shrinking fast
You want to take it all and make it last forever
Or maybe just a lifetime

Now oh you've gone to fly the flag from some pinprick on the map
Oh, won't you ever bring it back?
Tonight, when you hold her in your arms and you prove that you're a man
Oh, well, I hope she understands

Oh, oh, there's just something, something I noticed
That there's a whole world out there but it's shrinking fast
You want to take it all and make it last forever
Or maybe just a lifetime, maybe just a lifetime

And some things just don't ever go away
Some things, you know, are just here to stay

And in a golden field there is a little girl left with a Union Jack
And there's a price to pay, no matter what you say
There is no going back today
And if we're worlds apart, then I've still got a heart
Can you imagine that?
"Another wasted day", yes I can hear you say
But I'm afraid, it means much more to me than that

Go-Go Dancer

Here comes my go-go dancer
I called out but she wouldn't answer, oh, I don't know
She's changed ever since she met her
New friend but I won't forget her, can't let her go

I don't believe that's all she needs now
She used to have big dreams but somehow
They seem to mean less everyday
She wants to throw it all away

I love to watch you when you dance
Could you still feel that way?
Should we start a new romance?

I watched them walking home together
Even on their own she never talks much at all
I don't know what she sees in you, boy
I think you’re just another new toy, walk then you crawl

I love to watch you when you dance
Could you still feel that way?
Should we start a new romance?

Here comes my go-go dancer
I called out but she wouldn't answer, oh, I don't know
She's changed ever since she met her
New friend, but I won't forget her, can't let her go

I don't believe that's all she needs now
She used to have big dreams but somehow
They seem to mean less everyday
She wants to throw it all away

I love to watch you when you dance

Gone

You could tell me how he saved the world again
Well I'm sorry but I just think he's dead boring
And it can't be time already for your train
It just seems like we've only started talking

I finished sorting out here yesterday
And I've found some things of yours you left behind
I won't start, but I still feel the same way
And if you want to come back home then I don't mind

You always went too far
Now you've just gone
You always went too far
Now you've just gone

Aah

Granadaland

Can't you come up with something better than that?
Oh I think I'd be more angry
If your answers weren't so daft
Oh you know I could
But do you really think I would?
When you go up to Granadaland on Sundays

Sally told me that you're practically kissing his feet
Oh, but he hasn't got a car
And so your list of names brought you to me
And a friend in need
Is a pest indeed
When she uses everybody in the way that you do

You know you're breaking my heart
I can't bear the thought of us being apart
You know you're breaking my heart
I can't bear the thought of us being apart

Maybe I'll see you tomorrow if you could spare me the time
Oh no, of course I didn't mean it
I still keep hoping you'll be changing your mind
Okay your choice is clear
But, please, anywhere but here
And stop trying to tell me that you know how I feel

You know you're breaking my heart
I can't bear the thought of us being apart
You know you're breaking my heart
I can't bear the thought of us being apart
