Psychological
You've got a problem with the reason why
An asymmetric haircut and a painted eye
It's psychological
Psychological
Is it a cry for help or call to arms?
Frustration, false alarms
It's psychological
Psychological
(All in the mind)
There's something in the attic and it smells so bad
An undertaker in a bowler hat
Psychological
What's that spilt on the kitchen floor?
Who's that knocking on the cellar door?
It's psychological
Psychological
Or is it only your imagination?
Driving me crazy, crazy
Baby, baby, please
It's psychological
(All in the mind)
I thought I heard a baby cry
I thought I heard a train
Down in the cemetery
Cellophane
It's second nature to you

The Sodom And Gomorrah Show
(Sun, sex, sin, divine intervention, death and destruction
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Sodom and Gomorrah show)
I lived a quiet life
A stranger to champagne
I never dared to venture out
To cities of the plain
I heard about their way of life
Took it with a pinch of salt
The freedom and the time to play
A life so easy
It intrigued me
When you called to say
Are you gonna go
To the Sodom and Gomorrah show?
It's got everything you need
For your complete entertainment
And instruction
Sun, sex, sin, divine intervention
Death and destruction (Sodom and Gomorrah)
The Sodom and Gomorrah show
Is a once-in-a-lifetime
Production
I think it's true to say
My life was changed that night
In the liberated atmosphere
All around me
Someone found me
Whispered in my ear
Are you gonna go
To the Sodom and Gomorrah show? (Sodom and Gomorrah)
It's got everything you need
For your complete entertainment
And instruction
Sun, sex, sin, divine intervention (sun, sex, sin)
Death and destruction (death and destruction)
The Sodom and Gomorrah show
Is a once-in-a-lifetime
Production
Then we went on after hours
There was a place down below
It was there I realised
The meaning of the show
You've got to love
To learn to live
Where angels fear to tread
I did it and I don't regret the day
Even now I think of how you
Turned to me to say
(Sun, sex, sin, death and destruction)
Sodom and Gomorrah
(Sun, sex, sin, death and destruction)
Are you gonna go
(Sun, sex, sin, death and destruction)
Sodom and Gomorrah
(Sun, sex, sin, death and destruction)
Are you gonna go
To the Sodom and Gomorrah show? (Sodom and Gomorrah)
It's got everything you need
For your complete entertainment
And instruction
Sun, sex, sin, divine intervention (sun, sex, sin)
Death and destruction
The Sodom and Gomorrah show
Is a once-in-a-lifetime

I Made My Excuses And Left
[I'm all alone again, I'm all alone
I'm all alone again, I'm all alone
I'm all alone again, I'm all alone
I'm all alone again, I'm all alone]
[I'm all alone again, I'm all alone
I'm all alone again, I'm all alone
I'm all alone again, I'm all alone]
I walked into the room
Imagine my surprise
You were sitting close to him
Staring in each other's eyes
Each of you looked up
But no one said a word
I felt I should apologise
For what I hadn't heard
A silence filled the room
Awkward as an elephant
In the crowded court of your love
I was now a supplicant
And clumsy as I felt
At stumbling on this theft
To save further embarrassment
I made my excuses
And left
So long ago
I felt like such a fool
For crying
All that I know
Is when you feel inside
You're dying
It all begins again
Defying
Your excuses

Numb
Don't wanna hear the news
What's going on
What's coming through
I don't wanna know, don't wanna know
Just wanna hide away
Make my escape
Just want the world
To leave me alone
Feels like I feel too much
I've seen too much
For a little while
I want to forget
I wanna be numb
I don't wanna feel this pain no more
Wanna lose touch
I just wanna go and lock the door
I don't wanna think
I don't wanna feel nothing
I wanna be numb
I just wanna be, wanna be numb
Can't find no space to breathe
World's closing in
Right on me now
Well that's how it feels, that's how it feels
Too much light
There's too much sound
Wanna turn it off
Wanna shut it out
I need some relief
Think that I think too much
I've seen too much
There's just too much thought in my head
I wanna be numb
I don't wanna feel this pain no more
Wanna lose touch
I just wanna go and lock the door
I don't wanna think
I don't wanna feel nothing
I wanna be numb
I just wanna be, wanna be
Taken away
From all the madness
Need to escape
Escape from the pain
I'm on the edge
About to lose my mind
For a little while
For a little while
I wanna be numb
I don't wanna think
I don't wanna feel nothing
I wanna be numb
I don't wanna feel this pain no more
Wanna lose touch
I just wanna go and lock the door
I don't wanna think
I don't wanna feel nothing
I wanna be numb
I just wanna be, wanna be numb
Wanna be numb
All the madness
I wanna be numb
Luna Park
Shadows on the Sun
Another night's begun
It's always dark in Luna Park
Wind across the Moon
Electric storms and soon
A flying spark in Luna Park
And when we're getting higher we're happy
Somebody's eating fire we're happy
The big wheel in the sky will make you scream
Come on, join a line
The ghost train leaves on time
It's always dark in Luna Park
On the shooting range
The plastic prizes never change
So make your mark on Luna Park
And when we're getting higher we're happy (we're happy)
Somebody's eating fire we're happy (so happy)
The big wheel in the sky will make you scream
Thunder, I wonder?
A storm will come one day
To blow us all away
Like dust on the Moon
In Luna Park it can't be dark too soon
A storm is coming soon
Like dust on the Moon
Every night we go
To the latest horror show
And hear the screams in Luna dreams
Fortune-tellers muse
On palms that bode bad news
The future's dark in Luna Park
And when we're feeling scared we're happy
With circuses and bread we’re happy
The whirling fair machines are all we need
Thunder, I wonder?
A storm will come one day
To blow us all away
Like dust on the Moon
In Luna Park it can't be dark too soon
Thunder, I wonder?
A storm is coming soon
To blow us all away
Like dust on the Moon
In Luna Park it can't be dark too soon
I'm With Stupid
(Oh oh) I'm with stupid
(Oh oh) I'm with stupid
See you on the TV
Call you every day
Fly across the ocean
Just to let you get your way
No one understands me
Where I'm coming from
Why would I be with someone
Who's obviously so dumb?
Love comes (love comes)
Love grows (love grows)
Everytime you rise to meet me
Take my hand to greet me
Love comes (love comes)
Love grows (love grows)
And power can give a man
Much more than anybody knows
(Oh oh) I'm with stupid
(Oh oh) I'm with stupid
(Oh oh) I'm with stupid
(Oh oh) I'm with stupid
Before we ever met
I thought like everybody did
You were just a moron
A million-dollar kid
You flew up all the way
Like a hawk chasing a dove
I never thought that I would be
A sacrifice in love
It comes
It grows
And now we're tied together
Everybody knows
(Oh oh) I'm with stupid (stupid)
(Oh oh) I'm with stupid
(Oh oh) I'm with stupid (stupid)
(Oh oh) I'm with stupid
Is stupid really stupid?
Or a different kind of smart?
Do we really have a relationship
So special
In your heart?
(Oh oh) I'm with stupid
(Oh oh) I'm with stupid
I have to ask myself
Like any lover might
Have you made a fool of me?
Are you not Mr. Right?
You grin
I pose
It's not about sincerity
Everybody knows
(Oh oh) I'm with stupid (stupid)
(Oh oh) I'm with stupid
(Oh oh) I'm with stupid (stupid)
(Oh oh) I'm with stupid
Is stupid really stupid?
Or are you really smart?
That's how you stole my heart
I'm with stupid (stupid, stupid, stupid)
Casanova In Hell
The girl's perfection
Inspires affection
It's queer that here
He can't cast his spell
In her direction
Somewhere near
One senses fear
Casanova in Hell
The girl is naked
The boy is naked
He hides inside
A secret chamber, there to gape
Through a velvet drape
And dream of rape
Casanova in Hell
Her sharp suggestion
He couldn't get an erection
Came as a shock
He finds himself
A laughing stock
His ageing fate
To contemplate
Casanova in Hell
Back in the library
His revenge is his story
What he will write
Will recall the bite
Of his wit and legendary appetite
The sybarite
Casanova is well
For Casanova has the last laugh
Creates the myth and vindication
Of his sexual vocation
Makes the definitive collection
His lives and lovers and above all
His erection
Will live in history
Twentieth Century
Oh, we learned a lesson from the twentieth century
I don't think we should just dismiss
After a hundred years of inhumanity
The lesson that I learned was this
Sometimes
The solution
Is worse than the problem
Let's stay together
Sometimes
The solution
Is worse than the problem
Let's stay together
Well I bought a ticket to the revolution
And I cheered when the statues fell
Everyone came to destroy what was wicked
But they killed off what was good as well
Sometimes
The solution
Is worse than the problem
Let's stay together
Sometimes
The solution
Is worse than the problem
Let's stay together
Stay with me
This century
Together we're better (better, better, better)
Oh, we learned a lesson from the twentieth century
It may be somewhat hit or miss
If you've certainty 'bout the way it's all meant to be
The lesson that you need is this
Sometimes
The solution
Is worse than the problem
Let's stay together
Sometimes
The solution
Is worse than the problem
Let's stay together
Indefinite Leave To Remain
I was lost for so long
Feels like it's taken half my life
To find where I belong
Seeing you here
You're my nation
This is my application
Give me hope
Keep me sane
Give me indefinite leave to remain
All the worlds that I saw
I went so far away
And still wanted you more
It may sound superficial
But can we make it official?
Give me hope
Keep me sane
Give me indefinite leave to remain
Tell me where I stand
What do you envision?
One way or another
Give me your decision now
Is it time to proceed?
Will you give me a chance
And the status I need?
Seeing you here
You're my nation
This is my application
Give me hope
Keep me sane
Give me indefinite leave to remain
Give me indefinite leave to remain
