Theme From Chalets

You're making us wanna un-buckle our trousers
You're making us wanna tightened our skirts
You got us thinking that maybe we got this good thing
You got us thinking maybe you've got us all wrong
We're slipping our black boots right off our feet
We're slipping our keys right in your back door
We're feeling all crazy want you here by our side
We're feeling all creep want to get right outside

And I don't think you like that we are walking
But a little bit of talking wouldn't have gone astray
I don't think that you are believing us
Your eyes are deceiving you
We're running yeah we're running far away

Let's fix some cocktails and make them so strong
Let's not get too drunk but we'll play along
Let's put on FM sit back and relax
You must be joking get out of my kaks
Don't think it's working their coats are still on
Just five more minutes and then we'll be gone

Why did we come here the boy is a nerd?
Don't fancy yours much but I do like my bird
I'm really sorry they looked good in the dark
Yours is a howler she looks like she could bark
Oh come on ladies you're killing us here
What are you talking about we came for the beer
We'll call a taxi maybe she you next week
Oh come on boys you're just stupid freaks

No Style

Everybody says you're looking pretty cool
And the summers looking good for the gang you rule
But you got No Style
Yeah, you got No Style

Working everyday you're waiting to get paid
And you're counting every check so you can get away
But you got No Time
Yeah, you got No Time

Every summer
Every summer
Every summer
Every summer it's your turn
And I'm feeling
I'm feeling
I'm feeling
I'm feeling older

Fall down on the grass
You're staring at her ass
And your heart is beating fast
You know you wanna ask
But you got no Spine
Yeah, you got no Spine

Sitting on the wall
You're breaking up with Paul
And you wanna get with Joe
So you can get your hole
But you got No Hope
Yeah, you got No Hope

Every summer
Every summer
Every summer
Every summer it's your turn
And they're growing
I'm they're growing
I'm they're growing
I'm they're growing colder

Everybody says you're looking pretty cool
And the summers looking good for the gang you rule
But you got No Style
Yeah, you got No Style

Working everyday you're waiting to get paid
And you're counting every check so you can get away
But you got No Time
Yeah, you got No Time

Every summer
Every summer
Every summer
Every summer it's your turn
And I know it
I know it
I know it
I know it's over

Red High Heels

I told her and she told him
And then they told more people
Really dropped me in it
Rumours circulating round
Those people keep their ears close to the ground

They're just words
In her head
I don't mind
Cause what she said

It was not for her to say
But she told them anyway
She made sure that word got out
They don't know what it's about

Uhoh, uhoh, you're too slow
Uhoh, uhoh they don't know
The truth behind what she told
Uhoh uhoh

Words were said on the telephone
She looked for information
But she wanted more
It was misinterpreted and then spread around
I want to hit that girl just to shut her mouth

They're just words
In her head
I don't mind
Cause what she said

It was none of her concern
Now she's told them ears will burn
People think she'd never do it
I'm the one that sees right through it

Uhoh, uhoh, you're too slow
Uhoh, uhoh they don't know
The truth behind what she told
Uhoh uhoh

How could someone be so bold?
Now she's told them heads will roll
You would think I was so cold
If you believe all you've been told

Uhoh, uhoh, you're too slow
Uhoh, uhoh they don't know
The truth behind what she told
Uhoh uhoh

GoGo (Don't Go)

Let's get up and kick over the beds
Move down the stairs through the window and stay
Pick up the letters and set them on fire
Kick down the doors as the flame burn higher

Get in the car, crash it into the wall
Run down the street and we scream till we fall
Get to the club where we piss on the lawn
Roll on the grass and we drink until dawn

Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Miss your train, catch the next to the coast
Fall down the dunes and we sun till we roast
Keep your clothes on when we jump in the water
We cant do this when the days get shorter

Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Lets head for home walking tracks in the dark
Light from the moon on your face is so stark
Shadows cast is that a smile or a frown?
But black or white, yes or no, up or down

Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Gogo (don't go)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Arrivals

(Instrumental)

Feel The Machine

It's silent its deadly
its so strong its so wrong
its shiny its grimy
its so cold its so low

Everybody wants to feel the machine
everybody yeah you know what i mean

Its nowhere its everywhere
do you trust it? you just lust it
its glowing its growing
its so weird just disappeared

interfering interfacing disappearing

its nothing its everything
its so twisted can you resist it
its coming you're coming
its in you it is you

Two Chord Song

You're kinda fine looking ladies
Can we join your band?
We got a 2 chord song
And some fancy guitars

You're pretty plain looking guys
But you're kinda sweet
You can join our band
Just don't get under our feet

So we hit the stage
With our 2 chord song
Made you scream and shout
So we played it again

We were on the news and they said
Oh, oh, oh oh
If it was the 80's we would have been on the tube
Oh, oh oh oh!

We got these fine looking ladies in our hotel room
We play our 2 chord song on some broken guitars

We got some weird looking groupies
Hanging round our room
We wanna leave the band
And we wanna go soon

So we hit the stage
For the very last time
It made ya scream and shout
You'll never hear us again

You'll never hear us again
You'll never hear us again
You'll never hear us again
You'll never hear us again

You'll never hear us again

Fight Your Kids

They thought they ran the neighbourhood when I
Slept in your shed passed out from a beating
Kept creeping in to see if I was dead
Cant stop your kids from fighting, but cant fight your kids

Beware of those boys, be careful when they stare
They have penknives hidden in their sheds
Their mother came outside to fight for them
They're no good, don't talk to them again

We hid all day out in the sun waiting
Nobody came by, our _____ was wasted
She took ___________ in the evening
Cant stop your kids from fighting but cant fight your kids

_____ on the wall, no lights in the window
It's getting dark and there is no one home
There's something creepy going on in there
Cant stop your kids from fighting, but cant fight your kids

They thought they ran the neighbourhood when I
Slept in your shed passed out from a beating
Kept creeping in to see if I was dead
Cant stop your kids from fighting, but cant fight your kids

Nightrocker

One dark bedroom
Two empty beds on the floor
Three people dancing
Four drinks down and I just don't care
Five in the morning
Six storeys up looking down
Seven still fighting
Eight times around but this time I won't drown

It took me all night to get you but I got you
It took me all night to get you but I got you

Just made my mind up
I'm taking you home in my car
Stop on the way back break in a bank or a bar
And now we're shooting our way out
Fighting our way through the door
The windows' exploding
The roof's caving in but we flee from the scene

It took me all night to get you but I got you
It took me all night to get you but I got you

Sexy Mistake

If you kiss me I will do nothing
You can do what you like to please me
I have a choice so I threw you away
You stood there are asked me to stay

What's a girl to do?
What's a girl to do?
I was mixed up so confused
What did I just say
What did she just say
I will regret this every day

I don't want to see because I
Wonder was it would have been like
I think you were cruel and vain but I want
You to kiss me when I want

What did I just say
What did she just say
I'm gonna practice every day

But oh guess what, I know your secret
And do you know if I will keep it
But oh I might _____ ______
I think you know how you deserve this

If you kiss me I will feel nothing
You can do what you like to please me
I have a choice so I threw you away
You stood there are asked me to stay

Departures

Big party dance floor, get over the top
Garden barbeque, get your hook across
Dinner party necktie, show it all off
Small party disco under shining light

Checkout

Say lady, what's the word
The word is love, haven't you heard?
Oh yeah, I heard, but I don't buy it
You'll never know until you try it

So cash in
So sell out
So check in
So check out

Check in at the till, there'll be surprises
I am always watching you and I know what you will do
Check out love, check it out
I am always watching you and I know what you will do

Well I've been asking around
Oh yeah, well what have you found?
That they've been dancing in the aisles
Because the word's spread for miles

Time to stay awhile
While ____ ____ _____ _____
In the aisles
____ ___ ___ from outside

Check in at the till, there'll be surprises
I am always watching you, and I know what you will do
Check out love, check it out
I am always watching you, and I know what you will do

You crazy slapper, you got me fired today
I planned to leave but not this way
It took a girl like you to ruin my life

So cash in
So sell out
So check in
So check out

Check in at the till, there'll be surprises
I am always watching you, and I know what you will do
Check out love, check it out
I am always watching you, and I know what you will do

I am always watching you, and I know what you will do

Love Punch

At first you were a dream but now you're a nightmare
This kind of shit I have nothing to compare
I'm coming home to a punch or a kiss
You tell me it's your heart but I know it's your fist

I know you love me but you're fucking crazy
I know you love me but you're fucking crazy
I know you love me but you're fucking crazy
I know you love me but you're so fucking crazy

I caught the train but I missed the transfer
You cut me off but I know you don't care
You take me home but someday I'll escape
You say we're making love but I call that a rape

I know you love me but you're fucking crazy
I know you love me but you're fucking crazy
I know you love me but you're fucking crazy
I know you love me but you're so fucking crazy

I know you love me (x3)
But you're fucking crazy!

Beach Blanket

We went to the beach all day
And swam in the clear blue bay
Right now I can't remember
And right now I can't forget
Where I am

The moon is where the sun should be
The lights stream by, the air is clean
Hey how come my glass is empty?
Hey how come my glass is full?

We fall out of a car in someone's driveway
Up on the hills the city lights are shiny
Right now I can't remember
And right now I can't forget
Where I am
Where I am

A luxury poolside party
And we can hardly stand
The air is warm and the lights down low
And I can't find my friends

The top I am wearing I don't own
The shoes on my feet are a loan
I am drifting around with my eyes closed
And this grin on my face looks posed

So I fix a drink from the deckchair
Sit back and watch the crowds
Everything turns in slow motion
As my fuzzy head shuts down

Back in the car the early sun is shining
Up on the hills the morning mist rolls by me
Hey how come my glass is empty?
Hey how come my glass is full?
