it’s just a one dollar secret
a lover’s secrets in the uk
torn apart in the uk
in the dribble of may-day
‘87 and cry
‘87 and cry

and there’s nothing inside
and there’s nothing in mind no
and only you
rocket on thru the sky
well it couldn’t be done without dogs
yeah it couldn’t be once without us
‘87 and cry
‘87 and cry

when the days were the days boys
when blue ties were for the bigg guys
frannie dressing down for the enemy
you saw him hangin’ on the enemy
and there’s no one in love
and there’s nowhere to scream no
and only you
race on to wonder where
well it couldn’t be done without dogs
it couldn’t be once without us
‘87 and cry
‘87 and cry

you can’t make love with money
you can’t make mistakes with babies
nothing looked good on you
that’s how i liked you best
now you’re ready for the real mccoy

deep in the heart of cupid
murder on the heels of love
just a ghost of a story
just a one dollar secret

baby these were the sounds
baby these were the sounds

and only you
whisper these things aren’t true
well it couldn’t be done with dogs
well it couldn’t be once without us
‘87 and cry
‘87 and cry
‘87 and cry
‘87 and cry cry cry
‘87 and cry
‘87 and cry cry cry
‘87 and cry
‘87 and cry cry cry cry cry
‘87 and cry cry cry cry cry
‘87 and cry
‘87 and cry
‘87 and cry
‘87 and cry
hey
hey
‘87 and cry

someday they won’t let you, now you must agree
the times they are a-telling, and the changing isn’t free
you’ve read it in the tea leaves, and the tracks are on tv
beware the savage jaw
of 1984

they’ll split your pretty cranium, and fill it full of air
and tell that you’re eighty, but brother, you won’t care
you’ll be shooting up on anything, tomorrow’s never there
beware the sound mixture
of 1984

come see, come see, remember me?
we played love all my movie role
you said it would last, but i guess we grown
in 1984 (who could ask for more)
1984 (who could ask for mor-or-or-or-ore)
(mor-or-or-or-ore)

i’m looking for a vehicle, i’m looking for a ride
i’m looking for a body, i’m looking for a side
i’m looking for the treason that i knew in ‘65
beware the savage jaw
of 1984

come see, come see, remember me?
we played love all my movie role
you said it would last, but i guess we grown
in 1984 (who could ask for more)
1984 (who could ask for mor-or-or-or-ore)
(mor-or-or-or-ore)

1984
1984
1984 (mor-or-or-or-ore)
1984
1984 (mor-or-or-or-ore)
1984

someday they won’t let you, now you must agree
the times they are a-telling, and the changing isn’t free
you’ve read it in the tea leaves, the tracks are on tv
beware the savage jaw
of 1984

they’ll split your pretty cranium, and fill it full of air
and tell that you’re eighty, but brother you won’t care
you’ll be shooting up anything like tomorrow’s wasn’t there
beware the savage jaw
of 1984

(come see, come see, remember me?)
we played out an all night movie role
you said it would last, but i guess we’ve grown
in 1984 (who could ask for more)
1984 (who could ask for more)

now we can talk in confidence
did you guess that we’ve been done wrong
lies jumped the queue to be first in line
such a shameless design

he thinks he’s well screened from the man at the top
it’s a shame that his children disagree
they cooly decide to sell him down the line
daddy’s brainwashing time

he’s a do do, no no didn’t hear it from me
he’s a do do, no no didn’t hear it from me

she doesn’t recall her blessed childhood out of yore
when a unit was a figure not a she
when lovers chose each other seems the perk’s are due
another memo to screw

she’s a do do, no no didn’t hear it from me
she’s a do do, no no didn’t hear it from me

can you wipe your nose my child without them slotting in your file a photograph
will you sleep in fear tonight wake to find the scorching light of neighbour jim
come to, turn you in

but the do do, no no, didn’t hear it from me
another do do, no no, didn’t hear it from me
another do do, no no, didn’t hear it from me
another do do, no no, didn’t hear from me

come see, come see, remember me?
we played out an all night movie role
you said it would last, but i guess we enrolled
in 1984 (who could ask for more)
1984 (who could ask for mor-or-or-or-ore)
(mor-or-or-or-ore)

1984
1984
1984 (mor-or-or-or-ore)
1984
1984 (mor-or-or-or-ore)
1984
1984 (mor-or-or-or-ore)

5:15
i’m changing trains
this little town
let me down
this foreign rain
brings me down
5:15
train overdue
angels have gone
no ticket
i’m jumping tracks
i’m changing time

chorus
we never talk anymore
forever i will adore only you

5:15
all of my life
angels have gone
i’m changing trains
angels like them
thin on the ground
all of my life
all legs and wings
swings turn the eyes

5:15
train overdue
angels have gone

chorus

cold station all of my life
forever i fear

please don’t tear this world asunder
please take back this fear we’re under
i demand a better future
or i might just stop wanting you
i might just stop wanting you

please make sure we get tomorrow
all this pain, all this sorrow
i demand a better future
or i might just stop needing you
i might just stop needing you

give my children sunny smiles
give them warm and cloudless skies
i demand a better future
or i might just stop loving you
i might just stop loving you, loving you

when you talk
we talk to you
when you walk
we walk to you

from factory to field
how many tears must fall
down here below
nothing is moving

i might just stop wanting you
i might just stop needing you
i might just stop loving you

i demand a better future
i demand a better future
i demand a better future
for i might just stop loving you
loving you, loving you

i demand a better future
i demand a better future
i demand a better future
or i might just stop loving you
loving you, loving you

i demand a better future
