For friends that we had never met Been working hard and didn't speak The sky was grey and threatened wet And I dreamed that I saw unicorns Dreamed I saw them wild and white Their sudden beauty lit the world Like a star will light a winter's night Pure as love with manes of milk They danced and pranced and cried aloud Bright as rainbows round the stars Their eyes were soft and sad and proud And I wept for the wild and dirty world To which this beauty now was lost And cursed the hungry mind of man That feeds the future at such cost My head was bowed my eyes were closed When in my ears their voices rang And these few words lodged deep inside And in my very soul they sang We never went away You always knew that we were near Remember how to look for us You'll see we were always here I raised my eyes to seek them out The world was empty all around Rain came tumbling from the sky It drowned all dreams upon the ground And when they asked me why I wept Like one who for his dead love mourns The only answer I could give I dreamed that there were unicorns We never went away You always knew that we were near Remember how to look for us You'll see we were always here We never went away You always knew that we were near Remember how to look for us You'll see we were always here UNION MAN Now I’m a union man Amazed at what I am I say what I think that the company stinks Cause I’m a union man When we meet in the local hall I’ll be voting with them all With a hell of a shout, it’s “Out brothers out” And the rise of the factory’s fall Oh You don’t get me I’m part of the union You don’t get me I’m part of the union You don’t get me I’m part of the union Till the day I die till the day I die As a union man I’m wise To the lies of the company spies And I don’t get fooled by the factory rules Cause I always read between the lines And I always get my way If I strike for higher pay When I show my card to the Scotland Yard And this is what I say Oh You don’t get me I’m part of the union You don’t get me I’m part of the union You don’t get me I’m part of the union Till the day I die till the day I die Before the union did appear My life was half as clear Now I’ve got the power to the working hour And every other day of the year Now although I’m a working man I can ruin the Government’s plan I never know how this is all going to go I’m just some kind of superman Ooooh You don’t get me I’m part of the union You don’t get me I’m part of the union You don’t get me I’m part of the union Till the day I die till the day I die You don’t get me I’m part of the union You don’t get me I’m part of the union You don’t get me I’m part of the union Till the day I die till the day I die UP AROUND THE BEND There's a place up ahead and I'm going Just as fast as my feet can fly Come away come away if you're going Leave the sinking ship behind Come on arise and win we're goin' up around the bend
Better get while the getting's good Hitch a ride to the end of the highway Where the neons turn to wood Come on arise and win we're goin' up around the bend
Fix your mind on a crisp filled day Always time for a good conversation There's a new form in what you say Come on arise and win we' re goin’ up around the bend
And we'll meet by the big red tree There's a place up ahead and I'm going Come along come along with me Come on arise and win we're goin’ up around the bend
In a world few hearts survive All I know is the way I feel When it’s real I keep it alive The road is long There are mountains in our way But we climb a step every day Love lift us where we belong Where the eagles cry on a mountain high Love lift us up where we belong Far from the world we know Up where the clear winds blow Some hang on to “used to be” Live their lives looking behind All we have is here and now All our life out there to find The road is long There are mountains in our way But we climb a step every day Love lift us where we belong Love lift us up where we belong Where the eagles cry on a mountain high Love lift us up where we belong Far from the world we know Up where the clear winds blow Time goes by, no time to cry Life’s you and I, alive today
Where the eagles cry on a mountain high Love lift us up where we belong Far from the world we know UPTOWN GIRL Uptown girl she's been living in her uptown world I bet she never had a back street guy I bet her mama never told her why I'm gonna try for an uptown girl She's been living in her white bread world As long as anyone with hot blood can And now she's looking for a downtown man That's what I am And when she knows what she wants from her time And when she wakes up and makes up her mind She'll see I'm not so tough just because I'm in love With an uptown girl You know I've seen her in her uptown world She's getting tired of her high class toys And all the presents from her uptown boys She's got a choice Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Uptown girl you know I can't afford to buy her pearls But maybe someday when my ship comes in She'll understand what kind of guy I've been And then I'll win And when she's walking she's looking so fine And when she's talking she'll say that she's mine She'll say I'm not so tough just because I'm in love With an uptown girl She's been living in her white bread world As long as anyone with hot blood can And now she's looking for a downtown man That's what I am Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Uptown girl she's my uptown girl You know I'm in love with an uptown girl my uptown girl Don't you know I'm in love with an uptown girl my uptown girl Don't you know I'm in love with an uptown girl my uptown girl Don't you know I'm in love with an uptown girl my uptown girl
I’ve got everything I need I’m the urban spaceman baby I can fly I’m a supersonic guy I don’t need pleasure I don’t feel the pain If you were to knock me down I just get up again
I’m all about I wake up every morning with a smile upon my face My natural exuberance spills out all over the place I’m the urban spaceman I’m intelligent and clean Know what I mean I’m the urban spaceman baby as a lover second to none It’s a lot of fun I never let my friends down I’ve never made a boob I’m a glossy magazine an advert in the tube I’m the urban spaceman babe but here comes the twist I don’t exist THE VICAR AND THE FROG A very holy man, a vicar by trade, Was a walking in the woods one day, When he heard a voice give a plaintive cry, “Oh help me vicar” the voice did say, And the vicar looked around And all he could see was a tiny frog seated on the ground, “My dear little froggy did you speak to me, Was it you who spoke when I heard that sound ?” “Oh yes” said the frog “please help me vicar, I’m not really a frog you see, I’m a choirboy really but a nasty fairy Cast a wicked spell on me, And the only way I can be saved From this evil spell” the little frog said “Is for someone to take me and put me in a place Where a holy man has laid his head.” So the vicar took him home and put him on his pillow, And there he lay ‘till the break of day, And in the morning a blessed miracle, The spell was broken I’m glad to say, And there was a choirboy in bed with the vicar And I hope this all makes sense For there my lord and members of the jury Rests the case for the defence. VINCENT Starry, starry night, paint your pallet blue and grey Look out on a summers day, With eyes that know the darkness in my soul Shadows on the hills sketch the trees and the daffodils And catch the breeze and winter chills In colours on the snowy linen land Now I understand, what you try to say to me How you suffered for your sanity How you tried to set them free They would not listen, they did not know how Perhaps they listen now
Swirling colours in a violet haze Reflect in Vincent’s eyes of china blue Colours changing hue, morning fields of amber grain Weathered faces lined in pain Are soothed beneath the artists loving hand Now I understand, what you try to say to me How you suffered for your sanity How you tried to set them free They would not listen, they did not know how Perhaps they listen now
And when no hope was left inside on that starry, starry night You took your life as lovers often do I could have told you Vincent, This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you
Frameless heads on nameless walls With eyes that watch the world and can't forget Like the stranger that you've met, the ragged man in ragged clothes A silver thorn a bloody rose Lying crushed and broken on the virgin snow Now I think I know, what you try to say to me How you suffered for your sanity How you tried and set them free They would not listen, they're not listening still Perhaps they never will
I can see you’re dreaming quite a lot And if the sun is shining we can make it to the top Wake up little sister and tell me what is and what is not Wake up little dreamer you’ve been dreaming too long I can feel your heartbeat like a song With you beside me I can feel both gentle and strong Wake up little sister and tell me what’s right and what is wrong Wake up little sister help me through the night We’ve got to make it, we’ve got to make it all right And in the morning when we have to say good night We’ll say hello I know and walk off into the light And in the morning when we have to say good night We’ll say hello I know and walk off into the light And if the sun is shining we can make it to the top Wake up little sister and tell me what is and what is not WALK OF LIFE Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies Hey bopaluba listen what I say Here comes Johnny singing I’ve got a woman Down in the tunnel trying to make it pay He’s got the action, he’s got the motion Yeah, the boy can play Dedication and devotion, turning the night time into the day Do the song about the sweet loving woman Do the song about the knife Do the walk do the walk of life, yeah, the walk of life Here comes Johnny gonna tell you a story Hand me down my walking shoes Here comes Johnny with the power and the glory Back beat, the talking blues He’s got the action, he’s got the motion Yeah, the boy can play Dedication and devotion, turning the night time into the day Do the song about the sweet loving woman Do the song about the knife Do the walk do the walk of life, yeah, the walk of life Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies Hey bopaluba listen what I say Here comes Johnny singing I’ve got a woman Down in the tunnel trying to make it pay He’s got the action, he’s got the motion Yeah, the boy can play Dedication and devotion, turning the night time into the day Do the song about the sweet loving woman Do the song about the knife Do the walk do the walk of life, yeah, the walk of life And after all the violence and double talk There’s just the song of all the trouble and the strife You do the walk, yeah, you do the walk of life
