Sid Wishes

Sid wishes he was vicious
Sid wishes he was someone else
Sid Wishes he was vicious
But he can't change himself
Oh he wants to be that boy on a poster from 40 years ago. 4 strings around his knees and 2 fingers to the world
But that boy's a junkie, but that boy is dead oh Sidney get it in your head
Oh you, you've gotta be, be your own hero in the end.

Tell Me Baby
02:24

I can do anything but I don't know what you want
Or go anywhere but I don't know what you need
I'm in a world of shit if I get this wrong
If I could read your mind this would be a different song
I can tell you anything but I don't know what you want to hear me say
Or take you anywhere but I don't know what you need
Oh it's the age old question
The answer I can't find
I really need you, to give me a clue
To solve this mystery.
Tell me baby oh tell me baby
Tell me what's on your mind
I search but I can't find
I might as well be blind
I just can't get this wrong
If I could read your mind this would be a different song

You look so good in the bondage pants that you stole from X clothes
And you smell so sweet every day like extra hold from Bristows
You are back combed bleached and beautiful from your head to your toes
You're the Janet from another planet
You're the Punk girl from another world
Oh you're so pretty but what can I do
Oh you're so pretty I think about you
Oh it's such a pity I don't even know you
I guess I'll just stay here and obsess about you
Love that combat jacket that you got from Tibb Street when Tibb Street was cool
And you've got it all sussed out you're nobodies fool
And you were Dave Listers Delilah and broke the hippies rules
I'm just a long haired loser in your eyes
I've gotta prove to you that I'm not like those other guys
I guess I'll just forget about you.

It Could Happen To You
02:31

It could happen to you it could happen to me it could happen any old time now.
Well there she is at the bus stop, oh sh'e so beautiful
She makes me yearn makes me wanna learn her name.
Will she sit next to me (I don't think so) will she smile
Should I say hello oh no I don't know
Oh I shouldn't be so fickle hearted
When you're in love but you fall in lust - and I'm falling
Oh I shouldn't be so fickle hearted
Oh but you could be the one
Oh but this is where my trouble started

A Picture In My Memory
02:04

Guess I thought I'd be so cool, never let anything slip just be so nice to you
Happy to take my seat at the back
But when I look at you oh my skies turn blue over and over again hey girl it's true for you I'd lay a million roses at your feet but that ain't for me
You'll just remain a picture in my memory
I guess that's just the way it's got to be.
Kinda funny how things got out to much to drink and I didn't think what I'd do if you knew but I've said what I've said and I can't take it back but
Still I look at you and still my skies turn blue over and over again hey girl it's true I'd walk a million miles to hear your heart beat just for me.

The Theiving Hands
03:45
|

I remeber when the girls used to dance to my beat
I remember when I had the world at my feet
I remember when everything was just so fuckin neat
Or so I thought, til I got caught by the theiving hands
I remember way back when I believed that I could fly
And in those giddy days I knew I'd never die (we're gonna live forever)
My life was just so cool I didn't even have to try or so I thought, til I got caught by the theiving hands of
Time
Oh it slips so fast away
Eats you up day by day
There's nothing more to say
More can't be bought, when you've been caught
By The Theiving Hands
And all those races still un run and all those journeys not begun
Oh it's wasted
And all those battles still un won and all those songs I never sung
Oh it's wasted
Youth is wasted on the young
What I could do with those years now
I remember when the world used to dance to my beat
I remember when I had the girls at my feet (in you're imagination)
I remember when everything was just so fuckin neat
Or so I thought . . . .
There's less than you thought
