If you could be somebody else?
Would you?
Would you?
Would you think I?
If you could be somebody else?
Would you?
Would you?
Turn back time
Turn back time
Turn back time
Turn back time
They never tried to make you clean
All of the other things were going round
And now I’m scared by what I’ve seen
The pulse has stopped now we are underground
Now where do we go now it’s 3?
This whole town has collapsed since 22
And I’ve been blinded by the streets
The neon lights have got me all forlorn
If you could be somebody else?
Would you?
Would you?
Would you think I?
If you could be somebody else?
Would you?
Would you?
Turn back time
Turn back time
Turn back time
Turn back time
You always tried to make a scene
From California to the coast of Spain
We’ve been to Holland by the beach
That Milton theatre in the pouring rain
Now where do we go now it’s 3?
The discotheque burned down in 98
And I’ve been blinded by the streets
The neon lights have got me all forlorn
If you could be somebody else?
Would you?
Would you?
Would you think I?
If you could be somebody else?
Would you?
Would you?
Turn back time
If you could be somebody else?
Would you?
Would you?
Would you think I?
If you could be somebody else?
Would you?
Would you?
Turn back time
Turn back time
Turn back time
Turn back time

Am I in trouble for everything I’ve said?
Can we put this to bed?
Is this how it ends?
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Am I impatient for wanting to be done?
And I just want to run
I’m over feeling numb
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Am I in trouble for all the things I’ve sung?
I didn’t mean to come undone
Am I in trouble for all this circumstance?
I guess I should, I’ve learned to dance
Trouble
You know it
Trouble
Finds me
Defines me, whoa, whoa
Am I in jail for everything I wrote?
I didn’t get the note
I guess I missed the joke
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Am I for sale? Some things never end
It's slipping through my hands
Me and all my friends
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Am I in trouble for all the things I’ve sung?
I didn’t mean to come undone
Am I in trouble for all this circumstance?
I guess I should, I’ve learned to dance
Trouble
You know it
Trouble
Finds me
Defines me, whoa, whoa
Am I in trouble for all the things I’ve sung?
I didn’t mean to come undone
Am I in trouble for all this circumstance?
I guess I should, I’ve learned to dance
Trouble
You know it
Trouble
Finds me
Defines me, whoa, whoa

I watch you on the street; you fall like all the others
Behind a memory that howls
And no one hears your beat, but I can still remember
All of those things that we found
And everybody knows that we're apart together
Like being alone in a crowd
And we can walk away just hold on to the lever
That body’s sure to be found
If I let you back in, would you close the door?
This joke is wearing thin, and I have run out of words tonight
Could I be faking this, the lights on honey left it on there for ya
There is no shaking this the lights on, lights on
There’s no one left to blame since you stole all the money
It’s stashed away in the hide
And I can hear you breathe, you're still awake and hiding
Don’t bother looking outside
If I let you back in, would you close the door?
This joke is wearing thin, and I have run out of words tonight
Could I be faking this, the lights on honey left it on there for ya
There is no shaking this, the lights on sugar left on there for ya oooooh
Could I be faking this, the lights on honey left it on there for ya oooohhhh
There is no shaking this, the lights on, lights on, lights on

Too shy to be the undertaker
Too old to be the chosen one
Come time for you to meet your maker
Your deadly stones have turned up underdone
We’ll cross the river, not together
Lie down beneath the ocean shore
Hope no one sends the break-up letter
Where’s all your favourites, disappeared and bored?
So put your red dress on
Rebecca
Can you please take me to the other side?
We’ll drift into the sun
Rebecca
Can’t you wait for me just another night?
The salad bowls refrigerated
The silent bells are whistling
My only friends evaporated
That buddy sure could make the kettle sing
We boogied to the operator
Held witness to the dawn of time
Nobody needs a simulator
I’m here to hold and give you everything
So put your red dress on
Rebecca
Can you please take me to the other side?
We’ll drift into the sun
Rebecca
Can’t you wait for me just another night?
Don’t stop showing me the pattern
Too late, strangers in a shot glass
You hold everything you need to be
You're stalling, you’re stalling
So put your red dress on
Rebecca
Can you please take me to the other side?
We’ll drift into the sun
Rebecca
Can’t you wait for me just another night?
Rebecca

Kapow!

Let’s run away together to a village by the sea
Let’s run away forever, just you and me
It doesn’t matter when
It doesn’t matter how
All that matters is
We’re together
Let's put it all in place
Make it go kapow!
‘Cause I don’t want to live without you next to me
Let's run away together to a village by the sea
Let's run away forever, just you and me
This could be anything
A start of something new
The freshest cleanest slate
A fancy manicure
I can hardly wait, for this to be true
‘Cause I don’t want to live without you next to me
Let's run away together to a village by the sea
Let's run away forever, just you and me
Just you and me
Let's run away together to a village by the sea
Let's run away forever, just you and me
Just you and me

So you have made it past 11
Leaving the other world behind
Is there another way to heaven?
Just let Daniel rob you blind
You could be mine
You could be mine
If I could find the time
If I could find the time
Up on the outer steps they scold you
‘Cause they cannot attempt to hide
Caesar has called upon his armies
What is there left but broken pride?
You could be mine
You could be mine
If I could find the time
You’ve seen it all before
It’s all been said and done
What’s left for us to say?
It’s over
Time has not been kind
But kindness ain’t your bag
Should I hide in shame?
Solo
You put the cows all out to pasture
Out past the bloody 60 sign
Can I get up to heaven faster?
Just let Bradley rob you blind
You could be mine
You could be mine
If I could find the time
If I could find the time
If I could find the time

I’m getting tired of being your rubberband
Holding you tightly but never knowing where I stand
Fix it with glue or maybe with a shiny tack
‘Cause I’m gonna find somebody that’ll love me back
Did you always want the best for me?
‘Cause I’ll give you everything you need to turn
You are what you burn, you are what you burn
I’m getting tired of being your rubberband
Holding you tightly but never knowing where I stand
Fix it with glue or maybe with a shiny tack
‘Cause I’m gonna find somebody that’ll love me back
I can’t always write the rest to lose
‘Cause I’ve got another better thing to learn
You’re all gonna burn, you’re all gonna burn, yeah!
I’m getting tired of being your rubberband
Holding you tightly but never knowing where I stand
Can I fix it with glue or maybe with a shiny tack?
‘Cause I’m gonna find somebody that’ll love me back
Somebody that’ll love me back
Somebody that’ll love me back
Somebody that’ll hold me… back

Should’ve known better
Kept it all in line
Should’ve wrote a letter
Try to make things right
Now I’m standing on my own
Waiting for the telephone
All that’s said and all that’s done
Nothing’s gonna help, so you just run
You just run
Away
Away
Away
Away
What a little pickle
What a tricky time
Bought a new bicycle
So I could go for rides
Now you're standing on your own
Waiting for the telephone
All that’s said and all that’s done
Nothing's gonna help, so I just run
I’ll just run
Away
Away
