neil finn - blancmange
Chorus: Blancmange, blancmange we all love blancmange (Repeat)
the feeling of the soft blancmange
rubbing against your skin
gives you the urge to shout out loud
and make a nasty din
Chorus
the greatest thing about blancmange
is putting it to use
the next best thing to eating
it is filling it with juice
Chorus
my mother once made a blancmange
and put it in the sink
I noticed it when I walked in
and then it turned me pink
Chorus
there's cream and jelly
and peices of real fruit
and once you get a taste of it
it makes you want to shoot!
Chorus
I get annoyed when my blancmange
is all covered in skank
but when it's not it gets me hot
and makes me want to wuuuuuuhhhhhh
Chorus
every time I eat blancmange
I feel just like a hunk
my favourite thing to do with it
is fill it up with (loud cough)
chorus x2
Blancmange
neil finn - driving me mad
Deadlines again
Feel like hiding out
No sign of comfort yet
Have a nap while no ones looking
Bring some inspiration to the man
In my head
A namesake out of reach
Strange days upon us now
With the dust of conversation
Hanging in the light above the bed
Leave me now
?Cause tonight it?s driving me mad
I guess I?ll be all right
But tonight it?s driving me mad
Year after year
Demons always come
Fail to materialise
Way beyond my understanding
Find my only comfort in your hands
Hold me now
?Cause tonight it?s driving me mad
This dream can fill you up
But tonight it?s driving me mad
Yeah
Hey diamond girl
Restless in my head
Say what lies between us
A host of everyday distractions
Most of all it?s music taking me
It?s driving me mad
Still I can?t refuse
Even when it?s driving me mad
I guess I?ll be all right
When tomorrow brings some relief
This dream can fill you up
So put it out and find what?s underneath
Yeah
neil finn - i can see clearly now
I can see clearly now the rain is gone,
I can see all obstacles in my way,
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind.
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) sunshiny day.
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) sunshiny day.
I think I can make it now the pain is gone,
And all of the bad feelings have disappeared,
Here is the rainbow I've been praying for.
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) sunshiny day.
Look all around, nothing but blue skies.
Look straight ahead, nothing but blue skies.
I can see clearly now the rain is gone.
I can see all obstacles in my way.
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind.
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) sunshiny day.
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) sunshiny day.
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) sunshiny day.
neil finn - i love goff richards
-Hey you over there at the piano
-what, me?
-yes you, would you like to write a song about local composerGoff Richars?
-why I'd love to
-well...
I love Goff Richards and he loves me
If he was any sweeter i could put him in my tea
He writes the song to make the children sing
Oh Goff, you are a king
(hey kids, come over here and meet uncle Goff)
We love Goff Richards and he loves us
I never knew him but I met him on a bus
He's a valued member of the national trust
He knows his bluetits from his bush
(birds, that is)
I love Goff Richards and he loves me
I met him at a disco doing the Hokey-kokey
In with his left leg and then he pulled it out
and then he shook it all about
(legs, that is)
I met Goff richards at the YMCA
I never knew that big Geoff was gay
he came over to me and asked me for a dance
so I kicked him in the nads
(nads that is, oh yes)
this is the end of out song!
neil finn - last to know
Way down the track
made the wrong turn
Finished up where I started
You noticed a change come over me
Fell in love with my own reflection yeah
How does it feel beneath your own wheel
Feels like an accident waking up
Under a bus with my fingers crossed
Now is the time we could make it up
So you lost the fear it wasnt that bad
Left to your own devices yeah
Still a young girl eyes on the clock
Tick like a motor running out
Magnets and words up on the fridge
Speak to the poet in all of us
I missed the page that you thought about
Drew in the frost on the windowpane
But who I wonder could fail to notice
The aching silence came down
Im humble know
I hope you might come back
In your own time
Left to your own devices
And so
thats how it goes
Never the first
Always the last to know

neil finn - nasty vigilante shanty
(evil laugh) Mwah-haa-haa
P.
I'm a vigilante and I live inside a box
I am rather stealthy and I move just like a Fox
I travel round the country and I rip apart the naughty
I once killed Mr Whippy in his ice cream factory
My mother was quite evil
so I pulled out my big cannon
and I shot her in the face until she died!
(N.spoken) Ooh, that's not very nice
P. Yes, but...
P.N. I'm a vigilante and there's nothing else I'd be
dispense my justice for a reasonable fee
I'm a vigilante and I kill people for fun
I'm a busy worker but my work is never done
I'm a vigilante and I love just what I do
If you're even slightly naughty then I'll kill you too!
I'm a vigilante and I'll burn you at the steak
It doesn't matter where you go I'll do whatever it takes
I'll hunt you down and I will kill you any way I can
I'll even stoop as low as putting poison in your flan!
(N.spoken) but that's a bit nasty for a dinner party though
P. yes, but...
P.N. I'm a vigilante and there's nothing else I'd be
I dispense my justice for a reasonable fee
I'm a vigilante and I kill people for fun
I'm a busy worker but my work is never done
I'm a vigilante and I love just what I do
If you're even slightly naughty then I'll kill you too!
Heh-heh!
Oi! what are you looking at?
Make sure you don't cross me when I'm in a nasty mood
My methods of disposing of you could be rather crude
I am faned for putting someones rectum on a spike
As you can imagine, it was not something they liked!
(N. spoken) oh, that's starting to get very out of order now
P. yes, but what you must remember is...
P.N. I'm a vigilante and there's nothing else I'd be
I dispense my justice for a reasonable fee
I'm a vigilante and I kill people for fun
I'm a busy worker but my work is never done
I'm a vigilante and I love just what I do
If you're even slightly naughty then I'll kill you too
(you are the weakest link, goodbye)
P. If you get to know me then I can be rather nice
I am a fan of salad and I eat alot of rice
If there's one thing that annoys me it's those stupid bloodyFrench
I would love to kill them all and murder Judy Dench
(spoken)
N-Right that's absolutely it, I can't take any more of this
P-Right come here you...BANG!!
-(pathetic wailing by Neil)
P-well, it just goes to show...
I'm a vigilante and theres nothing else I'd be (shut up neil)
I dispense my justice for a reasonable fee (oh be quiet)
I'm a vigilante and I kill people for fun
I'm a busy worker but my work is never done
I'm a vigilante and I love just what I do
If you're even slightly naughty then I'll kill you to
I'm a vigilante and there's hairs on my chest
I am very famous because I AM THE BEST!!!
mwah-haa-haa-eat-my-mash
neil finn - she will have her way
I might be old but I'm someone new she said
I'm so sore that I could cry always
in the night lay your tired arms
she will have her way
somehow I will still believe her
it's the life I've been frightened of she said
deathly silence and especially the dark
feels like I am heavy and my spirit has died
she will have her way
somehow I will still believe her
she will have her way
one day I will come back
still no end in sight
though I travel far and wide
a dying man is doing time
thinker, soldier terrified
and she will have her way
somehow I will still believe her
she will have her way
one day I will come back
neil finn - sinner
See it anyone got my eyes got my face
Sing it everyone got my nose got my blood
Conscience plays upon me now
Safe until my luck runs out
Cukoos call, pendulum swings
I thought you knew everything
Lift my hands make the cross
Sinner I have never learned
Beginner I cannot return
Forever I must walk this earth
Like some forgotten soldier
Those things I should keep to myself
But I feel somehow strangely compelled
Under moonlight I stood wild and naked
Felt no shame just my spirit awakened
Sinner got my eyes got my face
Fireball drop from the sky
All my dreams have come to pass
Where's my faith is it lost
Can't see it till you cast it off
Sinner there is no such thing
Beginner I have learned to sing
Forever I must walk this earth
Like some forgotten soldier
Today I am still disconnected
To the face that I saw in the clouds
And the closest I get to contentment
Is when all of the barriers come down
neil finn - the lonely mountain
Far over the Misty Mountains rise
Leave us standing upon the heights
What was before, we see once more
Is our kingdom a distant light
Fiery mountain beneath the moon
The words unspoken, we'll be there soon
For home a song that echoes on
And all who find us will know the tune
Some folk we never forget
Some kind we never forgive
Haven't seen the back of us yet
We'll fight as long as we live
All eyes on the hidden door
To the Lonely Mountain borne
We'll ride in the gathering storm
Until we get our long-forgotten gold
We lay under the Misty Mountains cold
In slumbers deep and dreams of gold
We must awake, our lives to make
And in the darkness a torch we hold
From long ago when lanterns burned
Until this day our hearts have yearned
Her fate unknown the Arkenstone
What was stolen must be returned
We must awake and make the day
To find a song for heart and soul
Some folk we never forget
Some kind we never forgive
Haven't seen the end of it yet
We'll fight as long as we live
All eyes on the hidden door
To the Lonely Mountain borne
We'll ride in the gathering storm
Until we get our long-forgotten gold
Far away from Misty Mountains cold.
