  ' Wuthering Heights '
  
  
  
  Out on the wiley, windy moors
  We'd roll and fall in green
  You had a temper, like my jealousy
  Too hot, too greedy
  How could you leave me?
  When I needed to possess you
  I hated you, I loved you too
  Bad dreams in the night
  They told me I was going to loose the fight
  Leave behind my wuthering, wuthering
  Wuthering Heights
  
  Chorus
  
  Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy come home
  I'm so cold, let me in-a-your window
  
  Oh it get's dark, it gets lonely
  On the other side from you
  I pine alot, I find the lot
  Falls through without you
  I'm coming back love, cruel Heathcliff
  My one dream, my only master
  
  Too long I roam in the night
  I'm coming back to his side to put it right
  I'm coming home to wuthering, wuthering
  Wuthering Heights
  
  Chorus
  
  Oh let me have it, let me grab your soul away
  Oh let me have it, let me grab your soul away
  You know it's me, Cathy
  
  Chorus

  ' Cloudbusting '
  
  
  I still dream of Algernon.
  I wake up crying.
  You're making rain,
  And you're just in reach,
  When you and sleep escape me.
  
  You're like my yo-yo
  That glowed in the dark.
  What made it special
  Made it dangerous,
  So I bury it
  And forget.
  
  But every time it rains,
  You're here in my head,
  Like the sun coming out--
  Ooh, I just know that something good is going to happen.
  And I don't know when,
  But just saying it could even make it happen.
  
  On top of the world,
  Looking over the edge,
  You could see them coming.
  You looked too small
  In their big, black car,
  To be a threat to the men in power.
  
  I hid my yo-yo
  In the garden.
  I can't hide you
  From the government.
  Oh, God, Daddy--
  I won't forget,
  
  'Cause every time it rains,
  You're here in my head,
  Like the sun coming out--
  Ooh, I just know that something good is going to happen.
  And I don't know when,
  But just saying it could even make it happen.
  
  The sun's coming out.
  Your son's coming out.

  'Breathing'
  
  Outside
  Gets inside
  Through her skin.
  I've been out before
  But this time it's much safer in.
  
  Last night in the sky,
  Such a bright light.
  My radar send me danger
  But my instincts tell me to keep
  
  Breathing,
  ("Out, in, out, in, out, in...")
  Breathing,
  Breathing my mother in,
  Breathing my beloved in,
  Breathing,
  Breathing her nicotine,
  Breathing,
  Breathing the fall-out in,
  Out in, out in, out in, out in.
  
  We've lost our chance.
  We're the first and the last, ooh,
  After the blast.
  Chips of Plutonium
  Are twinkling in every lung.
  
  I love my
  Beloved, ooh,
  All and everywhere,
  Only the fools blew it.
  You and me
  Knew life itself is
  
  Breathing,
  ("Out, in, out, in, out...")
  Breathing,
  Breathing my mother in,
  Breathing my beloved in,
  Breathing,
  Breathing her nicotine,
  Breathing,
  Breathing the fall-out in,
  Out in, out in, out in, out in,
  Out in, out in, out in, out...
  ("Out!")
  
  "In point of fact it is possible to tell the
  ("Out!")
  difference between a small nuclear explosion and
  a large one by a very simple method. The calling
  card of a nuclear bomb is the blinding flash that
  is far more dazzling than any light on earth--brighter
  even than the sun itself--and it is by the duration
  of this flash that we are able to determine the size
  ("What are we going to do without?")
  of the weapon. After the flash a fireball can be
  seen to rise, sucking up under it the debris, dust
  and living things around the area of the explosion,
  and as this ascends, it soon becomes recognisable
  as the familiar "mushroom cloud". As a demonstration
  of the flash duration test let's try and count the
  number of seconds for the flash emitted by a very
  small bomb; then a more substantial, medium-sized
  bomb; and finally, one of our very powerful,
  "high-yield" bombs
  
  "What are we going to do without?"
  Ooh please!
  "What are we going to do without?"
  Let me breathe!
  "What are we going to do without?"
  Ooh, Quick!
  "We are all going to die without!"
  Breathe in deep!
  "What are we going to die without?"
  Leave me something to breathe!
  "We are all going to die without!"
  Oh, leave me something to breathe!
  "What are we going to do without?"
  Oh, God, please leave us something to breathe!"
  "We are all going to die without
  Oh, life is--Breathing.

  ' Army dreamers '
  
  "B.F.P.O.*"
  Army dreamers.
  "Mammy's hero."
  "B.F.P.O."
  "Mammy's hero."
  
  Our little army boy
  Is coming home from B.F.P.O.
  I've a bunch of purple flowers
  To decorate a mammy's hero.
  
  Mourning in the aerodrome,
  The weather warmer, he is colder.
  Four men in uniform
  To carry home my little soldier.
  
  "What could he do?
  Should have been a rock star."
  But he didn't have the money for a guitar.
  "What could he do?
  Should have been a politician."
  But he never had a proper education.
  "What could he do?
  Should have been a father."
  But he never even made it to his twenties.
  What a waste --
  Army dreamers.
  Ooh, what a waste of
  Army dreamers.
  
  Tears o'er a tin box.
  Oh, Jesus Christ, he wasn't to know,
  Like a chicken with a fox,
  He couldn't win the war with ego.
  
  Give the kid the pick of pips,
  And give him all your stripes and ribbons.
  Now he's sitting in his hole,
  He might as well have buttons and bows.

  ' Sat in your lap '
  
  I see the people working,
  And see it working for them.
  And so I want to join in,
  But then I find it hurts me.
  
  Some say that knowledge is something sat in your lap.
  Some say that knowledge is something that you never have.
  
  I see the people happy,
  So can it happen for me?
  'Cause when I am unhappy,
  There's nothing that can move me.
  
  Some say that knowledge is something that you never have.
  Some say that knowledge is something sat in your lap.
  Some say that heaven is hell.
  Some say that hell is heaven.
  
  I must admit, just when I think I'm king,
  (I just begin.)
  Just when I think I'm king, I must admit,
  (I just begin.)
  Just when I think I'm king,
  (I just begin.)
  
  I've been doing it for years.
  My goal is moving near.
  It says, "Look! I'm over here."
  Then it up and disappears.
  
  Some say that knowledge is something sat in your lap.
  Some say that knowledge is ho-ho-ho-ho.
  
  I want to be a lawyer.
  I want to be a scholar.
  But I really can't be bothered.
  Ooh, just gimme it quick, gimme it, gimme gimme gimme gimme!
  
  Some say that knowledge is ho ho ho.
  Some say that knowledge is ho ho ho.
  Some say that heaven is hell.
  Some say that hell is heaven.
  
  I must admit, just when I think I'm king,
  (I just begin.)
  Just when I think I'm king, I must admit,
  (I just begin.)
  Just when I think everything's going great,
  (I just begin,)
  Hey, I get the break,
  Hey, I'm gonna take it all--
  (I just begin.)
  When I'm king--
  (-- just begin.)
  
  In my dome of ivory,
  A home of activity,
  I want the answers quickly,
  But I don't have no energy.
  
  I hold a cup of wisdom,
  But there is nothing within.
  My cup, she never overfloweth,
  And 'tis I that moan- and groaneth.
  
  Some grey and white matter,
  "Give me the karma, mama!"
  I'm coming up the ladder,
  "A jet to Mecca,"
  I'm coming up the ladder,
  "Tibet or Jeddah,
  Up the ladder...
  "To Salisbury,
  A monastery,
  The longest journey,
  Across the desert,
  Across the weather,
  Across the elements,
  Across the water!"

  ' Experiment Iv '
  
  We were working secretly for the military.
  Our experiment in sound was nearly ready to begin.
  We only know in theory what we are doing.
  Music made for pleasure
  music made to thrill.
  It was music we were making here until -
  
  But they told us all they wanted was a sound
  that could kill someone
  
  From a distance
  so we go ahead
  
  and the meters are over in the red.
  It's a mistake in the maklng.
  
  From the painful cries of mothers to the terrifying scream
  
  We recorded it andIput it into our machine.
  But they told us all tney wanted was a sound
  that could kill someone
  . ..
  
  It could feel like falling in love
  it could feel so bad
  
  But it could feel so good
  it could sing you to sleep
  
  But that dream is yaur enemy.
  
  We won't be there to be blamed
  we won't be there to switch.
  I iust pray that someone there can hit the switch.
  But they told us all they wanted was a sound
  that could kill someone
  
  From the distance
  so we go ahead
  
  and the meters are over in the red.
  It's a mistake we have made.
  And the public are warned to stay ofF.
  And the public are warned to stay ofF.

  ' Dont Give Up '
  
  in this proud land we grew up strong
  we were wanted all along
  I was taught to fight, taught to win
  I never thought I could fail
  
  no fight left or so it seems
  I am a man whose dreams have all deserted
  I've changed my face, I've changed my name
  but no one wants you when you lose
  
  don't give up
  'cos you have friends
  don't give up
  you're not beaten yet
  don't give up
  I know you can make it good
  
  though I saw it all around
  never thought I could be affected
  thought that we'd be the last to go
  it is so strange the way things turn
  
  drove the night toward my home
  the place that I was born, on the lakeside
  as daylight broke, I saw the earth
  the trees had burned down to the ground
  
  don't give up
  you still have us
  don't give up
  we don't need much of anything
  don't give up
  'cause somewhere there's a place
  where we belong
  
  rest your head
  you worry too much
  it's going to be alright
  when times get rough
  you can fall back on us
  don't give up
  please don't give up
  
  'got to walk out of here
  I can't take anymore
  going to stand on that bridge
  keep my eyes down below
  whatever may come
  and whatever may go
  that river's flowing
  that river's flowing
  
  moved on to another town
  tried hard to settle down
  for every job, so many men
  so many men no-one needs
  
  don't give up
  'cause you have friends
  don't give up
  you're not the only one
  don't give up
  no reason to be ashamed
  don't give up
  you still have us
  don't give up now
  we're proud of who you are
  don't give up
  you know it's never been easy
  don't give up
  'cause I believe there's the a place
  there's a place where we belong
