Bygone Boy 02:50
I don't hang around with the gang no more, And I don't do the wild things that I did before. 'Cause I was looking for a kiss and then I found a kiss, oh yeah (oh yeah), 'Cause I was looking for a kiss and then I found a kiss, oh yeah (oh yeah). And I’m gone, gone, gone - baby, gone. And I’m gone, gone gone - baby, gone. I look in the mirror and wonder what's become of me. Debauchery seems to have lost to a cup, cup of tea. 'Cause I was looking for a kiss and then I found a kiss, oh yeah (oh yeah), 'Cause I was looking for a kiss and then I found a kiss, oh yeah (oh yeah). And I’m gone, gone, gone - baby, gone. And I’m gone, gone gone - baby, gone.

You're making me sick, taking the mick. Hit, miss, hit - who's laughing now? And I looked calm, inside my time bomb. Tick, tock, tick - who's laughing now? Whatcha think about this? (Woah-oh-oh). Whatcha think about that? (Woah-oh-oh). Whatcha think about this? (Woah-oh-oh-oh). This ship ain't going down now, This ship ain't going down now, This ship ain't going down no more. (So what are we fighting for?) I took the blows, and Christ they were low. Sticks, tones, sticks - who's laughing now? You were the clowns that ran me outta town. Here, there, here - who's laughing now? Whatcha think about this? (Woah-oh-oh). Whatcha think about that? (Woah-oh-oh). Whatcha think about this? (Woah-oh-oh-oh). This ship ain't going down now, This ship ain't going down now, This ship ain't going down no more. (So what are we fighting for?)

Bad Whiskey 03:25
Walking on the streets, To the beat of your feets, 'Cause the Dead Man͛s Hand, Caused the trouble again. What is a boy to do? When he͛'s born to lose. So it͛'s up to you, If it͛'s breakfast for two. We got bad, bad whiskey, So what we gonna do? We got a whole lotta woman trouble, So that bad, bad whiskey will do. Kicking against the pricks, When the dice rolled six. Not a moment too soon, So it͛'s breakfast for two. We got bad, bad whiskey, So what we gonna do? We got a whole lotta woman trouble, So that bad, bad whiskey will do.

I wish things were a little more clearer, I wish those words had never been said, I wish I knew just what you were feeling, But you just shut me out instead. At another time, In a different life, Might've worked it out somehow. Every time I see your face, my life turns to despair, You send me over the edge. With every promise broken, with every word that's left unsaid, You send me over the edge. I wish things had turned out different, I wish it wasn't all in my head, I wish I had the courage to change it, But you just filled me up with dread, At another time, In a different life, Might've worked it out somehow. Every time I see your face, my life turns to despair, You send me over the edge. With every promise broken, with every tear that has been shed, You send me over the edge. The edge of a breakdown, I'm falling. You sent my world crashing down, Praying to God I miss the ground.

Hands to the deck, I got my pay cheque, Already hungover and overdrawn. Bruce is on the tape deck, we're all in check, Baby, we were born to run. C'mon, c'mon, singing woo-ooo-ooo. C'mon, c'mon, singing woo-ooo-ooo. 1, 2, 3... (We are...) Pretty! Nicotine pretty, nicotine pretty, alright. (And we are...) Pretty! Nicotine pretty, nicotine pretty, alright. Smoking like a living wreck in Tooting Bec, It's the art of self destruction - oh yeah. On a dynamite jet, burning down the discotheque, We’re ugly and beauty in one. C'mon, c'mon, singing woo-ooo-ooo. C'mon, c'mon, singing woo-ooo-ooo. 1, 2, 3... (We are...) Pretty! Nicotine pretty, nicotine pretty, alright. (And we are...) Pretty! Nicotine pretty, nicotine pretty, alright. Life is like a cigarette, You gotta smoke 'til you burn. Life is a drag, So, suck it up, suck it up, suck it up...

Sick of yellow pills for the overload, Another 10ml for the episode. "Doc, can't you see what they're doing to me?" "We'll have to agree to disagree." Up and down and round we go, And round and round and round we go. Salvation, redemption, what about a little liberation? Who's gonna save my soul tonight? Could it be you? I hope it's you. (Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh). Remind me again, what do you mean? I'm trying to stay sober; trying to stay clean. Straight and narrow's never been my style, But I'm doing fine; just I'm a little less wild. Up and down and round we go, And round and round and round we go. Salvation, redemption, what about a little liberation? Who's gonna save my soul tonight? Could it be you? I hope it's you. (Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh).
