proclaimers - a land fit for zeros
Hold hands with the person to your right
Hold hands and try to look sincere-o
Tell them, though you don't know their name
That you still can feel their pain
Yeah you still can feel their pain
We'll sing "Jerusalem" now boys
As we build a land fit for zeros
It's all that I can do to stop
Fake tears from welling up
Fake tears from welling up
If you thought this was your country
You can just forget it
You're too old, you're too poor
You're too posh
You'll never get in here wearing that my dear
Don't smoke, don't smack
Don't eat red meat
This is a tolerant land fit for zeros
And if you're lost just hear my call
"Mediocrity is all. Mediocrity is all"
If you thought this was your country
You can just forget it
You're too old, you're too poor
You're too posh
You'll never get in here wearing that my dear
The past is all forgotten now
This is a young, modern land
Fit for zeros
And if we fight, it's only when
We're guaranteed to win
And should you, just stray
Just hear my call
"Mediocrity is all. Mediocrity is all"
proclaimers - a long long long time ago
Yesterday arrived too quickly
Caught me right off guard
My defence moved in too slowly
Missed it by a yard
I?d just settled down
With a bottle of gin
So I moved on to whiskey
And it hit me again
Memories were raining punches
Down on my head
Knocked me into the past so quickly
They almost raised the dead
So I drank some more booze
And it helped me to sleep
Where I dreamed of my youth
And the secrets I keep
Oh history is a friend of mine
She comes over to my place
And we have a good time
But the memories
She sometimes brings with her
Get out of line
They?re out of line
Show me things I don?t want to see
(wanna see, wanna see, wanne see)
Remind me of who I thought I was gonna be
(ganna be, gonna be, gonna be)
Take me places I used to go
(used to go, used to go)
A long long time ago
When I woke I remembered nothing
Suppose that?s just as well
And although my head was aching
I could hear a bell
So I put on some clothes
And I reached my front door
When I pulled it wide open
She joined me once more
Oh history is a friend of mine
She comes over to my place
And we have a good time
But the memories
She sometimes brings with her
Get out of line
They?re out of line
Show me things I don?t want to see
(wanna see, wanna see, wanna see)
Remind me of who I thought I was gonna be
(ganna be, gonna be, gonna be)
Take me places I used to go
(used to go, used to go)
A long long time ago
A long long time ago
proclaimers - act of remembrance
Arms of steel, hair of gold
Royal blue eyes, with a rebel soul
You scared me, you still do
But I loved you
More than you ever knew
This is my act of remembrance
My act of remembrance
Doctor's face, said the time had come
I stood up, and began to run
My boy's voice, called your name
You roared back and the silence came
This is my act of remembrance
My act of remembrance
Drove my car, to your street
Hoped a ghost, I would meet
Well that ghost, he's moved on
But his anger, Dad is it gone?
Is the pain gone, is it all gone?
This is my act of remembrance
My act of remembrance
This is my act of remembrance
proclaimers - beautiful truth
Beautiful beautiful beautiful truth
Dont leave because I can?t see you
Voy know the hours that I passed without you
Every heartbeat that I chose to flout you
And how I felt no shame
I know this problem is of my own making
I know you?re giving here and I?m not taking
But please don?t leave this place
Oon,g let me complicate what you made simple
By looking fancy or sounding boastful
Please bring me down
Arid now that I have said what?s on my mind
And it?s obvious that I am blind
Please say you?ll stay
Spin me round
Bring me down
He my sound
But don?t leave.
proclaimers - cap in hand
I could tell the meaning of a word like serene
I got some ?o? grades when I was sixteen
I can tell the difference between magarine and butter
I can say saskatchewan without starting to stutter
But I can?t understand why we let someone else rule our land
We?re cap in hand
I could get a broken jaw from being in a fight
I know it?s evening when day turns to night
I can understand why stranraer lie so lowly
They could save a lot of points by signing hibs goalie
But I can?t understand why we let someone else rule our land
We?re cap in hand
We fight - when they ask us
We boast - then we cower
We beg
For a piece of
Whats already ours
Once I thought I could make God a bribe
So I said I was in his lost tribe
Getting handouts can be so frustrating
Get in line son, there?s five million waiting
I can?t understand why you let someone else rule your land
You?re cap in hand.
proclaimers - come on nature
Come on nature, I don?t want to read a book or talk about the world
Come on nature, I just want to spend some time being boy to the girl
Come on nature, let me show the way that I?ve been feeling all along
Come on nature, just because I don?t feel weak don?t mean I feel so strong
I?ve been known to ask a few more favours than I should of you
And in time I?m sure I?ll still want things that you could never do
If she wasn?t mine, if I was stepping out of line,
But she?s mine and I?m in line and she?s the best I?ve ever seen
Come on nature, let me show the way that I?ve been feeling all along
Dark brown hair, green eyes and white skin
You perfect every colour that she?s in
Come on nature, I don?t want to read a book or talk about the world
Come on nature, I just want to spend some time being boy to the girl
Her and me, I could be complete if you could let it be
My desire, is to stretch myself inside her body?s fire
If I stumbled in then I could say that I had been to the
Chamber where your greatest work of art was on display.
proclaimers - don t give it to me
Your life is full of misery
Well take something for it
Or try to ignore it, don't give it to me
You trapped me in this corner
You're breathing it over me
Next stop's the Royal Infirmary
The room's started spinning
I'm finding it hard to breath
I think I'll have to leave, I need some air
That little black cloud
That follows you everywhere's
Floating my way and it's raining despair
Now I'm not immune to misery myself
But it's just a bore in somebody else
If you weren't allowed to talk of yourself
You would have nothing to say
Your life if full of misery
Well take something for it
Or try to ignore it, don't give it to me
Your life is full of misery
Well take something for it
Or try to ignore it, don't give it to me
You trapped me in this corner
You're breathing it over me
Next stop's the Royal Infirmary
Now I'm not immune etc...
proclaimers - don t turn out like your mother
You?re a grown woman
Good at what you do
I?m happy as hell
When I?m alone whit you
As you stroke my body
And soothe my brow
With everything
That the law will allow
I pray don?t turn out like your mother
(repeat)
Im a grown man
Over 21
I?ve got an ugly face
But I have a lot of fun
So if spill a glass
Or break a dish
I hear your voice
And I make this wish
Please don?t turn out like your mother
Don?t turn out
Don?t turn out
Don?t turn out like your mother
I couldn?t stand it
And I?ll be damned if
I?m gonna live with another
So many woman
Give you so much
Civilized ways
And a gentle touch
A different perspective
That?s as bright as a button
But then you wake up one morning
And it all counts for nothing
Cos she?s turned into her mother
Don?t turn out
Don?t turn out
Don?t turn out like your mother
I couldn?t stand it
And I?ll be damned if
I?m gonna live with another
It?s not the way she looks
It?s not the food she cooks
Her kind of indignation
Don?t cause me trepidation
But to live with a woman like this
Would take a masochist
Or someone who could get and could stay permanently pissed
(repeat)
You?re a grown woman
Good at what you do
I?m happy as hell
When I?m alone with you
As you stroke my body
And soothe my brow
With everything
That the law will allow
Im a grown man
Over 21
I?ve got an ugly face
But I have a lot of fun
So if spill a glass
Or break a dish
Don?t get on to me
Like some haranguing witch
Don?t turn out like your mother
Don?t turn out
Don?t turn out
Don?t turn out like your mother
I couldn?t stand it
And I?ll be damned if
I?m gonna live with another
It?s not her looks
Or the way she cooks
That wakes me up in a cold sweat
It?s just the knowledge
That if it happened
I couldn?t drink enough to forget
Don?t turn out (etc)
Don?t end up (etc)
proclaimers - everybody s a victim
Everybody's a victim
Seems we're going that way
Everybody's a victim
We're becoming like the USA
Everybody's a victim
Seems we're going that way
Everybody's a victim
We're becoming like the USA
I demand recompense
For sitting on the fence
Throughout my adult life
You've got to put my parents in jail
For raising me in Fife
It doesn't matter what I do
You have to say it's alright
And I need you to send somebody around
To tuck me in at night
Because...
Everybody's a victim
Seems we're going that way
Everybody's a victim
We're becoming like the USA
Well it's not my fault
That I'm positive
I just stuck a needle in my arm
And nobody told me
That sixty a day
Would do me any harm
My liver's shrivelling like a leaf
But it's not the whisky that doo's it
Call me irresponsible
And I'm really going to lose it
Because...
Everybody's a victim
Seems we're going that way
Everybody's a victim
We're becoming like the USA
Wear a ribbon for this
Hug a stranger for that
Light a candle to the dead
And soon you'll forget
That you ever had
A brain inside our head
We value everythin the same
We turn it into farce
So we don't know a crisis
'Till it kicks us up the arse
Because...
Everybody's a victim
Seems we're going that way
Everybody's a victim
We're becoming like the USA
Everybody's a victim
Seems we're going that way
Everybody's a victim
We're becoming like the USA
Everybody's a victim
Seems we're going that way
Everybody's a victim
We're becoming like the USA
proclaimers - follow the money
I?ve got to follow the money
Gotta go to work
Gotta make a living
Till my body hurts
Gotta bite my lip
Gotta wreck my health
Gotta break my back
For my share of wealth
(repeat)
I?ve gotta the follow money
Gotta earn my pay
I spent everything

Gotta find the cash
?cos it won?t find me
So I can feed myself
And my family
When I left school I was bummin? around
I?d smoke and drink and let my mind wander
I?d roll out of bed about twelve o?clock
I can?t do that any longer
I?ve gotta folow the money
Gotta go to work
Gotta make a living
Till my body hurts
Gotta bite my lip
Gotta wreck my health
Gotta break my back
For my share of wealth
Now I need to toil ?cos it?s good for my soul
I feel clean when I?m working
You drop all the mystical celtic bull
?cos that stuff?s just jerking
I?m not saying that I work like my dad
I know I don?t work like my mum
But I?m made of the same stuff and I?m six feet tall
Gimme the tools I?ll get the job done
Gotta follow the money
Gotta go to work
Gotta make a living
Till my body hurts
Gotta bit my lip
Gotta break my back
For my share of wealth
I?ve gotta follow the money
Gotta earn my pay
I spent everything
I earned yesterday
Gotta find the cash
?cos it won?t find me
So I can feed myself
And my family
Feed myself and my family
That?s why

proclaimers - heaven right now
She's everything
a married man
should look for in a girl
She's married too
but not to you
and that's part of the thrill
She's the one who makes you feel alright
Her alibi's your alibi - it's watertight
She's old enough
to know of love
and know that this is not
But young enough
to not be willing
to settle for what she's got
She's the one who makes you feel alright
Her alibi's your alibi - it's watertight
And if you get caught
you're going to hell
but it's heaven right now
She's the one who makes you feel alright
Her alibi's your alibi - it's watertight
She's everything
a married man
should look for in a girl
She's married too
but not to you
and that's part of the thrill
She's the one who makes you feel alright
Her alibi's your alibi - it's watertight
She's the one who makes you feel alright
Her alibi's your alibi - it's watertight
Oh, and you're going to hell
but it's heaven right now

proclaimers - hit the highway
Your way
No way
Do it my way
Or hit the highway
Your way
No way
Do it my way
Or hit the highway
I respect your point of view
You?ve got your thoughts
I?ve got mine too
But you?ll be out of here
If I don?t hear the words I want to hear
Your way
No way
You do it my way
Or you can hit the highway
I?ve watched you
Backsliding
Then there?s trouble
You, your always hiding
Now if I was in your shoes
I might look at me and think
There?s a fool
But I?m not in your shoes
And I don?t have to play
By your set of rules no no
Your way
Let me tell you that there?s no way
No way you do it my way
Or you can hit the highway
Hit it again
Your way
No way
Do it my way
Or hit the highway
I?m stating - not negotiating
You want more
There?s the door
proclaimers - how many times
Ooh Ah, Ooh Ah, Ooh Ah, Ooh Ah, Ooh Ah,
Well it takes a long time, to find the right woman,
The best one around, not the best you can do,
Takes a long time to find the right woman,
Some men never do,
Spent half my life, lying to girls,
Who were looking for love, where it didn?t exist,
The rest of the time, I was worrying myself,
About what it was, that?d I?d missed,
[Chorus]
How many times?
I don?t know, I don?t know,
How many times?
I don?t know, but when it happened, my heart started to go;
Ooh Ah, Ooh Ah, Ooh Ah, Ooh Ah,
I didn?t trust you from the moment I saw you,
I didn?t trust you, and I know I was right,
My head and my heart have been fighting about,
And my heart starting winning last night,
Chorus
Well I?m bored of my pain, and tired of sorrow,
Give me the word, and you?ll see me tomorrow,
I don?t give a damn about anything else,
The rest of the world can go and hang themselves!
Ooooooooh
Ooh Ah, Ooh Ah, Ooh Ah, Ooh Ah,
proclaimers - burn your playhouse down
I?ve got an achin? in my heart
Arson on my mind

I?ve got a badly broken heart
I?ve bad it from the start
You?re giving me the run around
Now if you play with fire
It?s a-sure to burn
I?ve beard this all of my life
Go on, be on your way, I?ve bad my say
Well honey, I?m through with you for life
You?ll find I?m there?s one in every yard
I?m getting mighty tired
I?m gonna burn your playhouse down
Now don?t pretend that this is the end
?cause this time we?re really through
While you were runflin? ?round
Burning up the town
I was settin? a trap for you
I?ve got an achin? in my heart
Arson on my mind
I?m gonna burn your playhouse down.
