Do you remember a guy that's been in such an early song? I've heard a rumour from Ground Control, oh no, don't say it's true They got a message from the Action Man, I'm happy, hope you're happy too I've loved all I've needed love, sordid details following The shrieking of nothing is killing me, just pictures of Jap girls in synthesis And I ain't got no money and I ain't got no hair But I'm hoping to kick but the planet is glowing ASHES TO ASHES, FUNK TO FUNKY, WE KNOW MAJOR TOM’S A JUNKY STRUNG OUT IN HEAVEN’S HIGH, HITTING AN ALL TIME LOW Time and again I tell myself, I'll stay clean tonight But the little green wheels are following me, oh no, not again I'm stuck with a valuable friend, I'm happy, hope you're happy too One flash of light but no smoking pistol I've never done good things, I've never done bad things I never did anything out of the blue I want an axe to brake the ice, I want to come down right now CHORUS My mama said to get things done, you'd better not mess with Major Tom My mama said to get things done, you'd better not mess with Major Tom My mama said to get things done, you'd better not mess with Major Tom My mama said to get things done, you'd better not mess with Major Tom

Mi vuoi lasciare, e tu vuoi fuggire, ma sola al buio tu poi mi chiamerai Ti voglio cullare, cullare, posandoti su un'onda del mare, del mare Legandoti a un granello di sabbia, così tu nella nebbia più fuggir non potrai E accanto a me tu resterai ai iai iai iai Ti voglio tenere, tenere, legata con un raggio di sole, di sole Così col suo calore la nebbia svanirà E il tuo cuore riscaldarsi potrà, e mai più freddo sentirai Ma tu, tu fuggirai e nella notte ti perderai e sola, sola, sola nel buio mi chiamerai... ai iai iai iai (Verse 1) Così col suo calore la nebbia svanirà E il tuo cuore riscaldarsi potrà, e mai più freddo sentirai Ti voglio cullare, cullare, posandoti su un'onda del mare, del mare Legandoti a un granello di sabbia, così tu nella nebbia più fuggir non potrai E accanto a me tu resterai ai iai iai iai

Magnesia 02:17
Di lo que te ocurre, vamos di lo que te aburre es magnesia quien te ha dicho que nos van a separar tú no te preocupes, yo seré quien te acurruque quien te compre las estrellas, quien te bese bajo el mar Y si alguien te dijera que lo nuestro se ha acabado que no queda ni el resquicio del precioso amor robado que magnesia lo ha escondido, que magnesia lo ha guardado en un mundo de recuerdos, en un mundo de pasado Y no quiero que tú pienses que lo nuestro es diferente lo que quiero es dejarte un abrazo para siempre un suspiro, una mirada, un saludo, una palabra un adiós, una sonrisa un final, hasta la vista y no quiero que tú pienses que lo nuestro es diferente lo que quiero es dejarte un abrazo para siempre un suspiro, una mirada, un saludo, una palabra Ahhhhh...

I read your manifestoes and your strange religious tracts You took me to your library and kissed me in the stacks PLANET CRASH, THE WORLD GOES NOVA, SUN EXPLODES, ALL GOES BLACK YOU WENT OFF SWINGING LONDON AND FORGOT TO COME BACK You couldn't grok my racecar but you dug the roadside blur You weren't into my airplane but you loved the whirling world (CHORUS x 2)

Slow 03:27
Well, you know it's up to you, sugar think what we could do Can I have a question, I'll make you smile, smile, smile, smile, smile Sugar sugar you're up to my lips, licking over everything I miss And I got no reason, just a slow, slow, slow, slow, suck Feeling bad, feeling good, feeling like I never could Lick, lick, lick and suck, suck, suck, I want it slow, slow, slow, slow Sugar sugar you're up to my lips, place my head upon your hips And I got no reason, you make me smile, smile, smile, smile Well what the hell, we're all the same, you got what I need, so don't play no games Sugar think what we could do, I'll make you smile, smile, smile, smile through You got the rush I don't feel no shame, on top of me you know while I don't know your name And we got no reason, just a slow, slow, slow, slow, suck

He has a picture of her underneath the poster So he knows that she, she is there, even though she is not And the tapes were a way to her heart She’s something he can hold on to, something good and hopeful. I'll never get to kiss her fingers, I'll never get to hold her coat I'll never get to turn the light off or sleep with her or even And she makes up friends in literature, she lived in France and Scotland And she paints herself, a picture of what he'd look like now Her cigarettes, her cold, cold hands, and a short dark hair And she still loves you, don't you know? No, you never did know. She thinks it would be better to see him through his letters The music that he makes her, she knows it’s all about her. AND YOU, YOU CAN HIDE, YOU CAN HIDE YOUR LOVE FOREVER YOU CAN HIDE, YOU CAN HIDE, YOU CAN HIDE YOUR LOVE FOREVER (3) I think that it is better to say oh how i loved her Something good and strong, you can hold on forever And one more time in the night I could remember your face (2) (CHORUS)

Amanecer 02:17
Caminando al amanecer He visto al mundo nacer La luna esconderse las nubes pasar El despertar de una flor que está sedienta de sol Entre ramas se filtra su luz Va dando vida y color Todo despierta la niebla se va El árbol vuelve a crecer, la golondrina a volar Pa pa pa pa pa pa papapaaaa Pa pa pa pa pa papaaaaaa Yo soy el campo, tú eres el sol Me das la luz y el calor, siempre estarás junto a mí Yo soy el campo, tú eres el sol Me das la luz y el calor, siempre estarás junto a mí Pa pa pa pa pa pa papapaaaa Pa pa pa pa pa papaaaaaa Yo soy el campo, tú eres el sol Me das la luz y el calor, siempre estarás junto a mí

Estuve enamorado de ti, estuve enamorado de ti pero ya no siento nada, ni me inquieta tu mirada como ayer. Estuve enamorado de ti, estuve enamorado de ti pero ya no siento nada, ni me inquietan tus palabras como ayer. Y PENSAR QUE UN DÍA TE QUISE COMO A NADIE YO HE QUERIDO JAMÁS. Y PENSAR QUE SIEMPRE TE DIJE QUE POR NADA TE PODRÍA DEJAR. Estuve enamorado de ti, estuve enamorado de ti pero quiero ser sincero, de verdad que, que no te quiero como ayer. Y PENSAR QUE UN DÍA TE QUISE COMO A NADIE YO HE QUERIDO JAMÁS. Y PENSAR QUE SIEMPRE TE DIJE QUE POR NADA TE PODRÍA DEJAR. Estuve enamorado de ti.

Manic Monday 02:29
Six o'clock already, I was just in the middle of a dream I was kissing Valentino by a crystal blue Italian stream But I can't be late, 'cos then I guess I just won't get paid These are the days when you wish your bed was already made IT’S JUST ANOTHER MANIC MONDAY, OH-OH-OH I WISH IT WAS SUNDAY, OH-OH-OH 'COS THAT’S MY FUN-DAY, OH-OH-OH MY I DON’T HAVE TO RUN-DAY (*) IT’S JUST ANOTHER MANIC MONDAY Have to catch an early train, have to be to work by nine And if I had an aeroplane, I still couldn't make it on time 'Cos it takes me so long just to figure out what I’m gonna wear Blame it on the train, but the boss is already there (CHORUS) All of the nights, why did my lover have to pick last night to get down (last night last night) Doesn't it matter that I have to feed the both of us, employments down He tells me in his bedroom voice C'mon honey, let’s go make some noise Time it goes so fast when you're having fun

That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes, an aeroplane - Lenny Bruce is not afraid. Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn, world serves its own needs, don’t misserve your own needs. Feed it up a knock, speed, grunt no, strength no. Ladder structure clatter with fear of height, down height. Wire in a fire represent the seven games in a government for hire and a combat site Left her wasn't coming in a hurry with the furies breathing down-your-neck. Team by team reporters baffled, trump, tethered crop. Look at that low plane! Fine then. Uh oh, overflow, population, common group, but it'll do. Save yourself, serve yourself. World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed. Tell me with the rapture in the reverent (and the) right-right. You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling-pretty-psyched. It's the end of the world as we know it It's the end of the world as we know it It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine Six o'clock - TV hour. Don't get caught in foreign tower. Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn. Lock him in uniform and book burning, blood letting. Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate. Light a candle, light a motive. Step down, step down. Watch a heel crush, crush. Uh oh, this means No fear - cavalier. Renegade and steer clear! A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies. Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I de-cli-ne (CHORUS) I feel fine (CHORUS) The other night I tripped a nice continental drift divide. Mount Saint Edelite. Leonard Bernstein. Leonid Brezhnev, Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs. Birthday-party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom! You symbiotic, patriotic, slam, but neck, right?... Right. (CHORUS) (x5)
