ONE SONG
(M Girio)
The DJ won’t play my request
He’s only spinning records for his friends
one song, over and over again
I came here by myself
to hear something off the record shelf
but my heart must break to another song
everything he picks sounds so wrong
The DJ won’t play my request
He’s only spinning records for his friends
one song, over and over again
I’ve waited for so long
to hear something that’ll make me strong
but I’ll never last the whole night through
waiting for a note that is true
The DJ won’t play my request
He’s only spinning records for his friends
one song, over and over again

Breaking My Heart Again
Well, do the Jerk or do the Monkey
Until you get it right
Mash Potato or the Donkey
Get into a fight
We’re gonna play till the morning
Until the break of light
Just a little bit of dancing
Then you can’t be wrong
Just a little bit of dancing
Dancing all night long
You brought your dead weight of a boyfriend
Who doesn’t want to dance
Don’t think about it for a moment
And give me just one chance
I don’t care what you think about me
I don’t wanna romance
Just a little bit of dancing
Then you can’t be wrong
Just a little bit of dancing
Dancing all night long
So get your ass onto the floor, girl
You better shake those hips
So what you think we play this shit for?
Can’t you read my lips?
It’s time to make a move so act now
You can do the twist
Just a little bit of dancing
Then you can’t be wrong
Just a little bit of dancing
Dancing all night long
Your eyes are breaking my heart again...

Dead Surfer's Lament
I'm still craving what I lost
Down in the undertow
I'm still waiting
For something I never had
Something that I'll never know
It's on the tip of my tongue
Like some forgotten movie star
Can't quite remember who you are
What we were is so damn far away
Now that I'm gone
Now that I'm here on the other side
I'm stuck in eternity
Counting out time with every
Pop song
Now all ever hear are
Pop songs
Now all ever hear are
Pop songs
Not even a good one
Not even a good one
Not even a good one

Leaving

Leaving
I’ll hold onto
My wounded heart
Though it’s been torn out and never will restart
I’m keeping track
Of every time
That I think I see your face and nearly die
The ring you returned is still in my pocket
The hardest part of leaving you
Is knowing that you’ll move on to
Holding somebody’s hand instead of mine
And now our friends
Are choosing sides
As if they never were quite sure of who they liked
And family
Are pulling strings
Dragging out their doubts in everyone and everything
The ring you returned is still in my pocket

All The World
I don’t wanna find out
what I’m missing
who that boy is
that you’re kissing
everybody knows that
it’s a long way down
to the bottom
when you can’t climb out
All The World would fade away
If I could have just one more day
I know that you’re leaving
on the next plane
would you please let
me explain that
when you finally go, girl
there won’t be much left
here to hold me
to this world, no and now you know
All The World would fade away
If I could have just one more day
Don’t leave me here in pieces
now I’m begging you to believe me
can you hear me
on the day I met you
I would never guess
that i’d fall through
like you made me do
Just one more day, girl

Line 'em Up

Line 'em Up
Each one has their church
For some it's not a place
It's just a thirst
It's something you can drink
When you feel worse
You line 'em up
I'll knock 'em down
The call may come to those
Who would spill their drink
On their best friend's clothes
The Father, Son and Bloody Mary know
You line 'em up
I'll knock 'em down
Possessed the will to dance
Despite my lack of balance
And two face plants
Kicking glasses over
Smashing lamps
You line 'em up
I'll knock 'em down
She's towering above
Her foot is on my chest
This must be love
I'll give up
When she kicks hard enough
You line 'em up
I'll knock 'em down

SAFE AS HOUSES
Like a cosmonaut
I’m floating in outer space
drifting away from you
reaching for the stars
just pinpricks in curtain cloth
and I’m still standing here
don’t turn away from me no
now that I’ve got you back in my life
remember when it felt so right
we were safe as houses
once we were safe as houses
were we anything more than a star or two
blinking in the dark
millions of miles from each other
why do we bother?
don’t turn away from me now
now that I’ve got you back in my life
at least we still know how to fight
we were safe as houses
once we were safe as houses
lost in the wilderness
in shadow and guilty dress
hidden away from you
and if you look around
maybe you’ll find me here
coz I’m not going anywhere

Liars
How many witnesses have you got for me?
Which ones claimed it was much too dark to see?
Lost the race, misplaced their memories
Liars come first when you cry yourself to sleep
Laughter hits hard, it kicks you when you bleed
Apologies fall from the things you feel you need
Nothing stops the hunger that makes them want to feed
Liars will thirst when you cry yourself to sleep
Close your eyes and you won't see them steal
If you shut your mouth then there's nothing to reveal
You're past the point you don't know how to feel
Liars are worst when you cry yourself to sleep

All Machine
All you young lovers
Watch and beware
Someone's in trouble
Someone is scared
He's just a little drunk and she's all upset
Tensing muscles' automatic
Raise your voice above the static
You're almost human
You're all machine
All machine
The girls are all laughing
Their mouths are on fire
The blame they are throwing
Was meant to inspire
The temperature's rising, she forces a smile
Tensing muscles' automatic
Raise your voice above the static
You're almost human
You're all machine
All machine
She's walking out and he says, "but I'm at my best"
Tensing muscles' automatic
Raise your voice above the static
You're almost human
You're all machine
All machine

You'll Come Back Soon

You’ll Come Back Soon
When you'd gone you left a note
The kind one never should believe
coz long after the ink dries you might regret
hoping for one small reprieve
you'll come back soon
oh oh you'll come back soon
oh oh you'll come back soon
When did it go so wrong that it hurt so
was it something that I said
the dirty laundry on the bedroom floor
the sheets on the unmade bed
you'll come back soon
Sometimes it's too hard
to turn it around
but trying is always half the fun
you'll come back soon
I've got my eyes on the minute hand
I'm waiting for you to return
Before I call some guy who I barely know
And tell him what I have learned
that you'll come back soon

The Moon And The Levee
Oh, the moon hangs over head
Shining its light onto your bed
Are your eyes feeling heavy?
Are your dreams bursting through the levee?
So the cow jumped over the moon
Pulled by a string and pushed by a spoon
Are your eyes feeling heavy?
Are your dreams bursting through the levee?
Can you see that ball of cheese
Swinging so high above the breeze?
Are your eyes feeling heavy?
Are your dreams bursting through the levee?

The only thing that stops me from comparing this to Toots & The Maytals is the perfection and precision of the Delegators’ musicianship and Janet’s vocals.
