Adventure Playground
Do you ever stop, stop and wonder
What it is you want
Live your life by their expectation
Pride before a fall
Try to find the truth before it finds you
Or you may get hurt
When you realise the situation's
Out of your control
To the adventure playground
I'm coming out to play
Don't be scared to voice your opinion
Spray it on the wall
Then you'll realise perhaps your friends
Are not your friends at all
Do you ever stop, stop and wonder
Who it is you know
Always someone there to impress you
With their bright ideas
To the adventure playground
I'm coming out to play
A Day In Heaven
Hello, and welcome to a day in heaven
And here's your host, Saint Peter
Painting rainbows in the sky
Building castles in the air
Try to hide the tear stained eyes
Take the consolation prize
She wants to be an actress
Star with Richard Harris
She wants a heart shaped swimming pool
To be the talk of Paris
She wants to be an angel
She wants to be immortal
She wants to live in Amsterdam
She wants to be in pictures
She wants to be notorious
She wants a reputation
She wants to do unusual things
She wants to fly around the world
Her lucky number's seven
She wants to go to heaven
'Cause good girls go to heaven
She wants to be a beauty queen
She wants to be a somebody
She wants to be a femme fatale
Her idol's Christine Keeler
She wants to be a somebody
Everything in the brochure
She wants to live in a mansion
She wants to kiss Charles Manson
Scream Quietly
Love's a thousand things
Everyone a precious thing
Love's a thousand dreams
Everyone a mystery
Someone stole her dream today
She'd saved it for a rainy day
Scream quietly, or the neighbours will hear
Now he's gone away
Haven't heard her cry for days
Then the ambulance came
Heard it on the news today
Someone stole her dream today
She'd saved it for a rainy day
Scream quietly, or the neighbours will hear
Mummy Your Not Watching Me
I'm crying again
Can't remember last time when
A day went by without tears falling
I try my hardest
But I always get sent to bed
I don't know why, that's why I'm crying
Mummy you're not watching me
Oh please
I could run away
But I would rather try again
I don't know why but I'm still crying
If only you'd see
I'm not the fool you think I am
If you could see, if you could see
Mummy you're not watching me
Oh please
I'm crying again
Can't remember last time when
A day went by without tears falling
I could run away
But I would rather try again
Until I know you're watching me

Where The Rainbow Ends
I've searched for love and I've searched for truth
But I must admit I've almost given up trying
So many things I said in haste
And now I'm scared of my own emotions
There's nothing left for me to say
Even though I tried so hard to find you
Just when I thought I had your hand in mine
You told me you had doubts in your mind
I tried so hard to find you
I called your name from the highest hill
I hear your voice even though you're not there
I've searched so hard to find the truth
I searched for love but I'm still crying
For a while there was no one else
But it's no use, there's no denying
Even though I try and pretend
This is where the rainbow ends
I've searched for love and I've searched for truth
But like a fool I let them slip away
Now there's nothing left for me to do
Can't find the words that I should have said
But it's no use, I can't pretend
This is where the rainbow ends
David Hockney's Diaries
I want to fly around the world on my own private plane
I want to party every night so I can sleep all day
I want the world to stop and stare whenever it sees me
But most of all I want to be in David Hockney's diaries
Oh yeah!
I want to wear the brand new shoes my credit card can buy
I want to eat the finest food and drink the finest wines
I want to be in magazines and be part of the scene
I want to see my paintings hung in every gallery
Only pretend, only pretend
It's a lovely day
Telephone call for Edward
Follow your imagination
Forgive us our foolish ways
I want to be in magazines and be part of the scene
I want to party every night so I can sleep all day
I want the world to stop and stare whenever it is sees me
But most of all I want to be in David Hockney's diaries
Oh yeah!
Only pretend, only to pretend
Isn't it good to be lost in the wood?
Iou can't catch me, you can't catch me
It isn't really stealing
Johnny took the furniture
Bruce gets all the girls
You can't see me......
She wants to be really famous
D O G spells dog
Mummy knows best, mummy knows best
I use Fairy Liquid cos I know best
Take it take it take it take it
It isn't really stealing!
Under the water under the sea
Ever seen a fish climb up a tree?
I have
Baby, baby, would you be my baby?
I love you! I love you baby, I love you! isn't it good?
Broke your heart, gave it back in pieces
Take take take, take take take
Have another slice of lemonade cake
Painting By Numbers
If I had a ladder I'd climb up to the sky
And take my paintbox with me to paint your face up high
In yellow green and orange, purple red and blue
To paint the world by numbers is all I want to do
Painting by numbers is easy to do
Painting by numbers I want to paint you
And when I'm rich and famous to New York I will go
I'll talk to Andy Warhol on my own TV show
I'l throw fantastic parties and paint the white house red
I'll dine with Frank Sinatra and stand for president
Painting by numbers is easy to do
Painting by numbers I want to paint you
If I had a ladder I'd climb up to the sky
To tell the world I love you in letters eight miles high
And then I'll go to russia to paint the Kremlin blue
To paint the world by numbers is all I want to do
Painting by numbers is easy to do
Painting by numbers I want to paint you
Lichtenstein Painting
She reminds me of a Liechtenstein Painting
That hangs on the wall of famous halls
In galleries around the world
She reminds me of a Liechtenstein Painting
I saw in a book, "Oh Jeff I do love you but...."
She's the Sleeping Girl
And when she's here I feel so glad
But when she's sad then I cry too
She looks like the drowning girl
Send for International Rescue
And if she smiles then I smile too
It really makes my day
I only wish she'd stay that way
La la la la love you
Magnificient Dreams
Just carry on dreaming your magnificient dreams
Just carry on dreaming your magnificient dreams
And if you need someone I'll be here to comfort you
I'll be here if you should need somebody
And if you're unhappy I'll share your tears with you
But don't throw your dreams away, tomorrow they may come true
And if you need someone I'll be here if you should fall
I'll be here with open arms to catch you
Just carry on dreaming your magnificient dreams
Just carry on dreaming your magnificient dreams
And if you need someone I'll be here to comfort you
I'll be here if you should need somebody
And if you need someone I'll be here if you should fall
I'll be here with open arms to catch you
Just carry on dreaming your magnificient dreams
Just carry on dreaming your magnificient dreams
And if you need someone I'll be here
If I Could Write Poetry
All those times we spent together
All the love I had I gave to you
Sitting on a park bench in the autumn
Holding hands under a cloudless sky
Happiness is knowing you care for someone
And never having to give a reasons why
For love is never having to say anything
My love is yours to keep till the day you die
If I could write poetry
I would write a thousand poems
To tell the world that I love you
Dreaming we would always be together
Chasing rainbows in a happy sky
Thinking we would always be together
But now I find there's no tears left to cry
If I could catch a falling star I'd give it to you
Even though it's never been done before
And now I'm on a park bench in the autumn
I watch the rainbow disappear from view
If I could write poetry
I would write a thousand poems
To tell the world that I love you
Thinking all the time we spent together
All the love I had I gave to you
Sitting on a park bench in the autumn
Holding hands under a cloudless sky
Dreaming we would always be together
Thinking we would always be together
Hoping we would always be together
But the rainbow disappeared from view
If I could write poetry
I would write a thousand poems
To tell the world that I love you
