joe jackson - breaking us in two
Don't you feel like trying something new
Don't you feel like breaking out
Or breaking us in two
You don't do the things that I do
You want to do things I can't do
Always something breaking us in two
You and I could never live alone
But don't you feel like breaking out
Just one day on your own
Why does what I'm saying hurt you
I didn't say that we were through
Always something breaking us in two
They say two hearts should beat as one for us
We'll fight it out to see it through
I say that won't be too much fun for us
Though it's oh so nice to get advice
It's oh so hard to do
Could we be much closer if we tried
We could stay at home and stare
Into each other's eyes
Maybe we could last an hour
Maybe then we'd see right through
Always something breaking us in two
joe jackson - chinatown
Trying to find chinatown
Trying to find chinatown
A hungry man
Can hold out a long time
For some soul food
Good food, whole food
I know I was that man
Maybe sometimes hold out a little too long
I took a right
Then I took a wrong turn
Someone asked me for a quarter
It didn?t seem to fit
He didn?t look too much like a chinaman
Trying to find chinatown
Trying to find chinatown
An old black man
Pushing a shopping trolley
Filled with tin cans
Avoided his glance
I?m nervous and I?m lost
And I don?t see too many restaurants
A guy laid out
With a knife in his back
A cop came along
Told him, move on
Go home and sleep it off
I didn?t know if I should get involved
Trying to find chinatown
Trying to find chinatown
joe jackson - is she really going out with him
Pretty women out walking with gorillas down my street
From my window I'm staring while my coffee goes cold
Look over there (where?)
There, there's a lady that I used to know
She's married now or engaged or something so I'm told
Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
Is she really going out with him?
'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me
There's something going wrong around here
Tonight's the night when
I go to all the parties down my street
I wash my hair and I kid myself,
I look real smoothLook over there (where?)
There
Here comes Jeanie with her new boyfriend
They say that looks don't count for much
And so there goes your proof
Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
Is she really going out with him?
'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me
There's something going wrong around here
Around here
But if looks could kill
There's a man there who is marked down as dead
'Cause I've had my fillListen you
Take your hands from her head
I get so mean around the scene
Hey, hey, hey
Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
Is she really going out with him?
'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me
There's something going wrong around here
Around here
Something going wrong around here
Something going wrong around here
Something going wrong around here
Something going wrong around
joe jackson - steppin out
Now the mist across the window hides the lines
But nothing hides the colour of the lights that shine
Electricity so fine look and dry your eyes
We so tired of all the darkness in our lives
With no more angry words to say can come alive
Get into a car and drive to the other side
Chorus:
Me babe, steppin' out
Into the night, into the light
You babe, steppin' out
Into the night, into the light
We are young but getting old before our time
We'll leave the t.v. and the radio behind
Don't you wonder what we'll find steppin' out tonight
You can dress in pink and blue just like a child
And in a yellow taxi turn to me and smile
We'll be there in just a while if you follow me
Chorus
joe jackson - 1 2 3 go
You know Iâ??m just a small town girl
Iâ??m off to see the whole wide world
Iâ??m off to see the wizard too
Do every thing that dorothy wonâ??t do
I know I should have stayed at home tonight
Thereâ??s nothing happening but something might
Itâ??s like a whirlpool and I get sucked in
Go round and round and back where I began
This town is my town, my town
Iâ??m through with their town
This town is my town, my town
This townâ??s a fairground
One-two-three go!
One-two-three go!
I like the candyfloss and all the rides
And feeling inside out in my insides
I guess Iâ??m fucking nearly everyone
Sometimes I wonder if Iâ??ll ever come
This town is my town, my town
Iâ??m through with their town
This town is my town, my town
This townâ??s a fairground
One-two-three go!
One-two-three go!

joe jackson - a slow song
Music has charms they say
But in some people?s hands
It becomes a savage beast
Can?t they control it
Why don?t they hold it back
You see my friend and me
Don?t have an easy day
And at night we dance not fight
And we need the energy
If not the sympathy
But I?m brutalized by bass
And terrorized by treble
I?m open to change my mood but
I always get caught in the middle
And I get tired of dj?s
Why?s it always what he plays
I?m gonna push right through
I?m gonna tell him too
Tell him to
Play us
Play us a slow song
It?s late - I?m winding down
Am I the only one
To want a strong and silent sound
To pick me up and undress me
Lay me down and caress me
I feel you touch my hand
And whisper in my ear
Ask me how I?m feeling now
And I want to get near you
But I can?t even hear you
But this is a fine romance
If we have to be so demanding
We need just one more dance to
Leave here with an understanding
And I get tired of dj?s
Why?s it always what he plays
I?m gonna push right through
I?m gonna tell him too
Tell him to
Play us
Play us a slow song
joe jackson - acropolis now
joe jackson - amateur hour
Don't make me sad
Talking 'bout tomorrow
It's not so bad
We were doing fine just then
You'll move on up, you'll move on out
And you won't cry
'Cause your amateur hour is over
You're only going where I've been
And you'll see what I've seen
You're no amateur - amateur
You know if someone likes your face
You'd be a fool to stay strictly amateur
It's strictly for amateurs
The world could be a better place
If some of us could stay
Amateurs
There's no more time
To think about the way ahead
Just miss one line
Fall over - you'll be left for dead
Your heart will play no part except
When memories of your amateur hour take over
Then screw yourself into a ball
And keep it rolling on
You're no amateur - amateur
You know if someone likes your face
You'd be a fool to stay strictly amateur
It's strictly for amateurs
The world could be a better place
If some of us could stay
Amateurs
Don't make me sad
It's not so bad
joe jackson - angel
Here?s a young one
Hey, rufus
How?s the rain on the rhubarb?
You wanna go out with me?
(yeah, I know we?re out
It?s, like, a figure of speech)
All you need is a real girl guide
Give it up and come inside
Slip the leash
Shake it loose
Bit the peach
Suck the juice
. . . what did you call me?
(angel . . . )
What was that again?
(angel . . . )
Ave gloriosa virginum regina
Vitis generosa, vite medicina
Clemencie resina
Ave copiosa gracie piscina
Carnis maculosa mund? illum sentina
Mundicie cortina
(hail, glorious queen of virgins, noble vine,
Elixir of life, resin of mercy.
Hail, abundant pool of grace, cleanse him
Of the filthy dregs of the flesh in
The basin of putrification)
Hey chicken
Is that your girl?
Bet she lays like a lump
What?s your poison - lemonade?
Velveteen or a razor blade?
You wanna walk in the dark with me
To a place where no-one sees?
Kiss the glove
Pretty please
You wanna pray?
On your knees . . .
. . . what did you call me?
(angel . . . )
Say it again
(angel . . . )
Claritate radiosa, stella matutina,
Brevitate legis glossa, perte lex divina
Irradiat doctrina
Venustate vernans rosa, sine culpe spina
Caritate viscerosa aurem buc inclina,
Serves ill?a a ruina
(morning star, radiant in brigtness, yourself
A gloss on the bervity of the law, through you
The divine law illuminates with it?s teaching,
O rose blooming with lovliness, having no
Thorn of sin, with inward love incline your ear
Hither and save him from destruction)
Hey sailor
How?s the steam in the stovepipe?
joe jackson - another world
I was so low
People almost made me give up trying
Always said no
The I turned around saw someone smiling
I stepped into
I stepped into
Into another
Into another
I stepped into
I stepped into
Into another
Into another world
There was no light
I was going to all the wrong places
Like day from night
Suddenly I saw a thousand faces
I stepped into
I stepped into
Into another
Into another
I stepped into
I stepped into
Into another
Into another world
joe jackson - awkward age
I should have know that you were only just fifteen
You had a scowl like a Klingon beauty queen
Old enough to stand out but to young to stand with pride
So uncomfortable in your messed-up skin
And the cool parties never let you in
I can still relate to being so high and dry
Don't cry...
You're just at an awkward age
We'll all be fine
Disgraceful under pressure
Don't toe the line
You're just at an awkward age
Don't cry- just an awkward age
Don't cry
You're just at an awkward...
You look at me like i know what's going on
I'm looking back and i wonder what went wrong
I really thought by now a few things might clarify
I got a mind that goes out to lunch for days
And a body that sometimes disobeys
I get into the parties but i hate them 'cos i'm shy
Oh my...
I'm still at an awkward age
We'll all be fine
Disgraceful under pressure
Don't toe the line
You're just at an awkward age
Don't cry- just an awkward age
Don't cry
You're just at an awkward...
We're supposed to be happy
Supposed to be tough
Supposed to be flawless
Snd buy the right stuff
They want us all swimming
Don't care if we drown
Do don't let 'em take you down
It's a scary mountain to climb up without a guide
Besides...
We live in an awkward age
joe jackson - baby stick around
Come on you people get your dancing shoes on
Reds and yellow and pinks and blues on
Too late, too late
To stay home and sit around
Purple leopard skin and see-through plastic
Whatever you want, but just make it drastic
Too late, too late to stay home and sit around
What you wanna bet
We ain?t started yet
Baby stick around
Baby stick around
Pushin? and shovin? and sweat wet leather
Up and down we go chained together
Too late, too late
To stay home and sit around
Somebody tellin? me the latest scandals
Somebody steppin? on my plastic sandals
Too late, too late
To stay home and sit around
What you wanna bet
We ain?t started yet
Baby stick around
Baby stick around
Too late, too late
To stay home and sit around
What you wanna bet
We ain?t started yet
Baby stick around
Baby stick around
joe jackson - battleground
Black nigger white nigger standing in the dark
Listen to the rhythm of the bass boom
Black nigger takes a hit sending up a spark
In the dark heat
Swaying a little to the bass beat
White nigger takes a hit takes money out
Says this is what it?s all about
Rots your brain - who cares
Black nigger stares
White nigger sighs
I like your music
I like your style
I crack a joke so why don?t you smile
White nigger dancing out on the floor tonight
The band?s not good but the beat seems right
The band?s all black and the floor?s all white
Clenching fists unite and fight
Rock agianst racism rules tonight
But in the real world
No-one rules
But fists are clenched all right
Down in the underground
Out in the playground
The common ground
Is a battleground
Now you don?t have to be black to be a nigger no more
The writing?s on the wall
Say - black is power
White is flower
Diveded we fall
And behind the wall
Behind the door,
In the dark heat
In the rhythm of the bass beat
Something is wrong
And no-one is taking the blame
