Synchronicity I Lyrics
[Verse 1]
With one breath, with one flow
You will know synchronicity
A sleep trance, a dream dance
A shared romance, synchronicity
[Chorus]
A connecting principle
Linked to the invisible
Almost imperceptible
Something inexpressible
Science insusceptible
Logic so inflexible
Causally connectable
Nothing is invincible
[Verse 2]
If we share this nightmare
We can dream spiritus mundi
If you act as you think
The missing link, synchronicity
[Chorus]
A connecting principle
Linked to the invisible
Almost imperceptible
Something inexpressible
Science insusceptible
Logic so inflexible
Causally connectable
Nothing is invincible
Oh!
[Verse 3]
We know you, they know me
Extrasensory, synchronicity
A star fall, a phone call
It joins all, synchronicity
[Chorus]
A connecting principle
Linked to the invisible
Almost imperceptible
Something inexpressible
Science insusceptible
Logic so inflexible
Causally connectable
Nothing is invincible
Oh!
[Verse 4]
It's so deep, it's so wide
You're inside synchronicity
Effect without a cause
Sub-atomic laws
Scientific pause
Synchronicity
[Outro]
Synchronicity
Synchronicity
Synchronicity
Synchronicity
Synchronicity
Synchronicity
Synchronicity
Synchronicity
Synchronicity, oh!
O My God Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Everyone I know is lonely
God is so far away
And my heart belongs to no one
So now sometimes I pray
[Chorus]
Take the space between us
Fill it up some way
Take the space between us
Fill it up
Fill it up
[Verse 2]
Oh my God, You take the biscuit
Treating me this way
Expecting me to treat You well
No matter what You say
How can I turn the other cheek?
It's black and bruised and torn
I've been waiting
Since the day that I was born
[Interlude]
Fill it up
Fill it up
Fill it up
[Chorus]
Take the space between us
Fill it up some way
Take the space between us
Fill it up, fill it up
Fill it up, fill it up
Fill it up, fill it up
[Verse 3]
The fat man in his garden
The thin man at his gate
My God, You must be sleeping
Wake up, it's much too late
[Chorus]
Take the space between us
Fill it up some way
Take the space between us
Fill it up, fill it up
Fill it up, fill it up
Fill it up, fill it up
[Outro]
Do I have to tell the story
Of a thousand rainy days
Since we first met?
It's a big enough umbrella
But it's always me
That ends up getting wet
Synchronicity II Lyrics
[Intro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 1]
Another suburban family morning
Grandmother screaming at the wall
We have to shout above
The din of our Rice Krispies
We can't hear anything at all
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Mother chants her litany
Of boredom and frustration
But we know all her suicides are fake
Daddy only stares into the distance
There's only so much more that he can take
[Chorus]
Many miles away
Something crawls from the slime
At the bottom of a dark Scottish lake
[Verse 2]
Another industrial ugly morning
The factory belches filth into the sky
He walks unhindered
Through the picket lines today
He doesn't think to wonder why
[Pre-Chorus 2]
The secretaries pout and preen like
Cheap tarts in a red-light street
But all he ever thinks to do is watch
And every single meeting with his so-called superior
Is a humiliating kick in the crotch
[Chorus]
Many miles away
Something crawls to the surface
Of a dark Scottish loch
[Guitar solo]
[Verse 3]
Another working day has ended
Only the rush-hour hell to face
Packed like lemmings
Into shiny metal boxes
Contestants in a suicidal race
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Daddy grips the wheel and stares alone into the distance
He knows that something somewhere has to break
He sees the family home now
Looming in his headlights
The pain upstairs that makes his eyeballs ache
[Chorus]
Many miles away
There's a shadow on the door
Of a cottage on the shore
Of a dark Scottish lake
[Outro]
Many miles away
Many miles away
Many miles away
Many miles away
Many miles away
Many miles away
Many miles away
Every Breath You Take Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Every breath you take
And every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take
I'll be watching you
[Verse 2]
Every single day
And every word you say
Every game you play
Every night you stay
I'll be watching you
[Chorus]
Oh, can't you see?
You belong to me
How my poor heart aches
With every step you take
[Post-Chorus]
Every move you make
And every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you
[Bridge]
Since you've gone, I've been lost without a trace
I dream at night, I can only see your face
I look around, but it's you I can't replace
I feel so cold, and I long for your embrace
I keep crying, baby, baby, please
[Interlude]
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm
[Chorus]
Oh, can't you see?
You belong to me
How my poor heart aches
With every step you take
[Post-Chorus]
Every move you make
And every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you
Every move you make
Every step you take
I'll be watching you
(250)
[Outro]
I'll be watching you
(Every breath you take)
(Every move you make)
(Every bond you break)
(Every step you take)
I'll be watching you
(Every single day)
(Every word you say)
(Every game you play)
(Every night you stay)
I'll be watching you
(Every move you make)
(Every vow you break)
(Every smile you fake)
(Every claim you stake)
I'll be watching you
(Every single day)
(Every word you say)
(Every game you play)
(Every night you stay)
I'll be watching you
(Every breath you take)
(Every move you make)
(Every bond you break)
(Every step you take)
I'll be watching you
(Every single day)
(Every word you say)
(Every game you play)
(Every night you stay)
I'll be watching you
(Every move you make)
(Every vow you break)
(Every smile you fake)
(Every claim you stake)
I'll be watching you
(Every single day)
(Every word you say)
(Every game you play)
(Every night you stay)
I'll be watching you
(Every breath you take)
(Every move you make)
(Every bond you break)
(Every step you take)
I'll be watching…
Murder by Numbers Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Once that you've decided on a killing
First you make a stone of your heart
And if you find that your hands are still willing
Then you can turn a murder into art
[Verse 2]
There really isn't any need for bloodshed
You just do it with a little more finesse
If you can slip a tablet into someone's coffee
Then it avoids an awful lot of mess
[Chorus]
Because it's murder by numbers, 1, 2, 3
It's as easy to learn as your ABC
It’s murder by numbers, 1, 2, 3
It's as easy to learn as your ABC
[Verse 3]
Now if you have a taste for this experience
And you're flushed with your very first success
Then you must try a twosome or a threesome
And you'll find your conscience bothers you much less
[Verse 4]
Because murder is like anything you take to
It's a habit-forming need for more and more
You can bump off every member of your family
And anybody else you find a bore
[Chorus]
Because it's murder by numbers, 1, 2, 3
It's as easy to learn as your ABC
It's murder by numbers, 1, 2, 3
It's as easy to learn as your ABC
[Verse 5]
Now you can join the ranks of the illustrious
In history's great dark hall of fame
All our greatest killers were industrious
At least the ones that we all know by name
[Verse 6]
But you can reach the top of your profession
If you become the leader of the land
For murder is the sport of the elected
And you don't need to lift a finger of your hand
[Chorus]
Because it's murder by numbers, 1, 2, 3
It's as easy to learn as your ABC
Murder by numbers, 1, 2, 3
It's as easy to learn as your ABCDE
[Bridge]
123, ABC
123, ABC
123, ABC
[Outro]
(I say)
It's murder by numbers, 1, 2, 3
It's as easy to learn as your ABC
It's murder by numbers, 1, 2, 3
It's as easy to learn as your ABCDE
[Light applause]
