Alone For You lyrics - Cold Chisel
Wake up in the morning, feel like shit
Waiting on a message, that’s my hit
Forget about food, forget about time
Alla my body, alla my mind
Alla my intentions, alla my drive
Is bent on keeping our connection alive
Every decision, my vision is pinned
Counting off the hours till you call again
I’m alone for you, I’m alone I’m alone for you
I’m alone for you, I’m alone I’m alone for you
Checkin’ on messages, lookin’ at the wall
Leavin’ my room, walkin’ up and down the hall
Exiting the building, on the street
Shopping for nothing on the same old beat
Wandering the city, another night lost
Counting off the hours, the stations of the Cross
Counting off the hours, back to my room
Teenage cars goin’ boom boom boom
I’m alone for you, I’m alone I’m alone for you
I’m alone for you, I’m alone I’m alone for you
Wake up in the morning, feel like shit
Waiting on a message, that’s my hit
Forget about food, forget about time
Forget about checkin’ out the scene of the crime
I’m alone for you, I’m alone I’m alone for you
Waiting on a message, that’s my hit
Forget about food, forget about time
Alla my body, alla my mind
Alla my intentions, alla my drive
Is bent on keeping our connection alive
Every decision, my vision is pinned
Counting off the hours till you call again
I’m alone for you, I’m alone I’m alone for you
I’m alone for you, I’m alone I’m alone for you
Checkin’ on messages, lookin’ at the wall
Leavin’ my room, walkin’ up and down the hall
Exiting the building, on the street
Shopping for nothing on the same old beat
Wandering the city, another night lost
Counting off the hours, the stations of the Cross
Counting off the hours, back to my room
Teenage cars goin’ boom boom boom
I’m alone for you, I’m alone I’m alone for you
I’m alone for you, I’m alone I’m alone for you
Wake up in the morning, feel like shit
Waiting on a message, that’s my hit
Forget about food, forget about time
Forget about checkin’ out the scene of the crime
I’m alone for you, I’m alone I’m alone for you
The Backroom lyrics - Cold Chisel
Down by the Hunter where the coal-trucks roll
And the billboards tell ya where to save your soul
There’s another place, does a better job by far
When the moonlight hammers on the railway bridge
And the whole world’s lookin’ for a beverage
And you ain’t got nothin’, nothin’ in the boot a the car
Time for the backroom at Dougie and Gleny Rae’s tikki bar
When the coal-trucks settle up and down the line
You can wake up thinking that it’s ‘89
But there’s another sound, thicker than a Bolivar
You can hear it pumping out the roll-a-door
Walnut piano on a wooden floor
Backbeat drummer, Roy on a slide guitar
Coming from the backroom at Dougie and Gleny Rae’s tikki bar
When the high tide’s suckin’ at the old sea wall
And the full moon’s lookin’ like a mirror ball
Bigger than Elvis, hotter than a speedway star
With a wet paypacket on a midnight hand
They say you can win a mariachi band
You can lose a girl, quicker than a coup de grace
In the backroom at Dougie and Gleny Rae’s tikki bar
Haul that mother, haul that son
Haul that rubber to the end of a run
That ain’t got ridden since between the wars
All hidden from the liquor laws
Down by the Hunter where the coal-trucks roll
And the billboards tell ya where to save your soul
There’s another place, does a better job by far
That’s the backroom (at Dougie and Gleny Rae’s)
And the billboards tell ya where to save your soul
There’s another place, does a better job by far
When the moonlight hammers on the railway bridge
And the whole world’s lookin’ for a beverage
And you ain’t got nothin’, nothin’ in the boot a the car
Time for the backroom at Dougie and Gleny Rae’s tikki bar
When the coal-trucks settle up and down the line
You can wake up thinking that it’s ‘89
But there’s another sound, thicker than a Bolivar
You can hear it pumping out the roll-a-door
Walnut piano on a wooden floor
Backbeat drummer, Roy on a slide guitar
Coming from the backroom at Dougie and Gleny Rae’s tikki bar
When the high tide’s suckin’ at the old sea wall
And the full moon’s lookin’ like a mirror ball
Bigger than Elvis, hotter than a speedway star
With a wet paypacket on a midnight hand
They say you can win a mariachi band
You can lose a girl, quicker than a coup de grace
In the backroom at Dougie and Gleny Rae’s tikki bar
Haul that mother, haul that son
Haul that rubber to the end of a run
That ain’t got ridden since between the wars
All hidden from the liquor laws
Down by the Hunter where the coal-trucks roll
And the billboards tell ya where to save your soul
There’s another place, does a better job by far
That’s the backroom (at Dougie and Gleny Rae’s)
All Hell Broke Lucy lyrics - Cold Chisel
A winter cold, eighteen, forty-three.
In a whiskey rage, and a heart would bleed.
She found a fancy-man, that would do the deed.
And take old Henry’s life and set Lucretia free.
She said she hated him unless they both were drunk
She swore she’d leave him cold, in the corner slumped.
Before his eyes were cold, they had the body dumped.
And at the break of day Lucretia came undone.
The hangman told her the truth,
She could dance with the devil at the end of a noose
She felt the pain inside from the very start,
All hell broke Lucy, it tore her apart.
Well a spot of blood by the bed was found,
It was hers not his, she was heard to shout.
And as they hauled her away and her hands were bound
Lucretia’s eyes were cold, as the cold, hard ground
The hangman told her the truth,
She could dance with the devil at the end of a noose
She felt the pain inside from the very start,
All hell broke Lucy, it tore her apart.
The trial was short the lovers had confessed,
And the rope was tied and slipped around their necks
And left the holy ground where they would never rest
And not a tear was shed the night Lucretia left
The hangman told her the truth,
She could dance with the devil at the end of a noose
She felt the pain inside from the very start,
All hell broke Lucy, it tore her apart.
The hangman told her the truth,
She could dance with the devil at the end of a noose
She felt the pain inside from the very start,
All hell broke Lucy, it tore her apart.
In a whiskey rage, and a heart would bleed.
She found a fancy-man, that would do the deed.
And take old Henry’s life and set Lucretia free.
She said she hated him unless they both were drunk
She swore she’d leave him cold, in the corner slumped.
Before his eyes were cold, they had the body dumped.
And at the break of day Lucretia came undone.
The hangman told her the truth,
She could dance with the devil at the end of a noose
She felt the pain inside from the very start,
All hell broke Lucy, it tore her apart.
Well a spot of blood by the bed was found,
It was hers not his, she was heard to shout.
And as they hauled her away and her hands were bound
Lucretia’s eyes were cold, as the cold, hard ground
The hangman told her the truth,
She could dance with the devil at the end of a noose
She felt the pain inside from the very start,
All hell broke Lucy, it tore her apart.
The trial was short the lovers had confessed,
And the rope was tied and slipped around their necks
And left the holy ground where they would never rest
And not a tear was shed the night Lucretia left
The hangman told her the truth,
She could dance with the devil at the end of a noose
She felt the pain inside from the very start,
All hell broke Lucy, it tore her apart.
The hangman told her the truth,
She could dance with the devil at the end of a noose
She felt the pain inside from the very start,
All hell broke Lucy, it tore her apart.
The Perfect Crime lyrics - Cold Chisel
The summer lightning flicks in sheets
The negative reveals
The last house where this dogtown meets the river
Meets the fields
Lookin’ out the East I’d say
That thunderhead could be a thousand miles away
Out off the coast
Unreal
I’ve been thinkin’, off and on, about you
About the summer now gone
And what I mean to do
All in all, this town
Is only good for if you need to not be found
For a while
For a turn or two
You, on the other hand, just may be
A whole new and fascinating possibility
How far, and how wired
Could we get on down the line
Once fired
On that trajectory
How long could we play
Who’d be the first to peel away before the end
Is what I’d like to see
Yeah, you can look around
But we ain’t got much time
Baby, we’ll be
The perfect crime.
The summer lightning flicks in sheets
Across the world tonight
All across this little town
This little party light
Strung out with the others
Down a highway bleak and beautiful as you
All flash
And no relief in sight
One kiss, you and I
Could outrun anything we do
For a while
And that’s alright
Yeah, you can look around
But we ain’t got much time
Baby, we’ll be
The perfect crime.
The negative reveals
The last house where this dogtown meets the river
Meets the fields
Lookin’ out the East I’d say
That thunderhead could be a thousand miles away
Out off the coast
Unreal
I’ve been thinkin’, off and on, about you
About the summer now gone
And what I mean to do
All in all, this town
Is only good for if you need to not be found
For a while
For a turn or two
You, on the other hand, just may be
A whole new and fascinating possibility
How far, and how wired
Could we get on down the line

How long could we play
Who’d be the first to peel away before the end
Is what I’d like to see
Yeah, you can look around

The summer lightning flicks in sheets

All across this little town

Strung out with the others
Down a highway bleak and beautiful as you

And that’s alright
Yeah, you can look around
But we ain’t got much time

The perfect crime.
Long Dark Road lyrics - Cold Chisel
It’s a long dark road, leads me to where I’m going.
It’s a hard, hard way, and I got no way of knowing.
I can see you dressing up, and wanting someone’s blessing
And I know it’s not for me
It’s a long dark road, It’s a hard, hard way
It’s a long, dark road, each step that I take to nowhere
And I travel alone, no trace of the things we once shared.
What we once were sharing all the hopes and dreams and caring
Are cast aside and left to bleed
It’s a long dark road, It’s a hard, hard way
I can see you dressing up, and wanting someone’s blessing
And I know it’s not for me
What we once were sharing all the hopes and dreams and caring
Are cast aside and left to bleed
It’s a long dark road, It’s a hard, hard way
And I travel alone, it’s a long dark road.
It’s a hard, hard way, and I got no way of knowing.
I can see you dressing up, and wanting someone’s blessing
And I know it’s not for me
It’s a long dark road, It’s a hard, hard way
It’s a long, dark road, each step that I take to nowhere
And I travel alone, no trace of the things we once shared.
What we once were sharing all the hopes and dreams and caring
Are cast aside and left to bleed
It’s a long dark road, It’s a hard, hard way
I can see you dressing up, and wanting someone’s blessing
And I know it’s not for me
What we once were sharing all the hopes and dreams and caring
Are cast aside and left to bleed
It’s a long dark road, It’s a hard, hard way
And I travel alone, it’s a long dark road.
Four In The Morning lyrics - Cold Chisel
It’s four in the morning, who knows why
I can’t sleep, and if I try
I can’t follow where she goes
When she closes those beautiful eyes
The shadowland those silken tents are drawn across,
The continent of heresy she wanders in
Savoring the call to maybe this time,
Make it permanent
I’ll give up smoking one day, maybe soon
Dogs’ll give up barking at the moon
Keeping watch across the hour
I’ll maybe one day find a tower
And open up a lighthouse come saloon
Lookin’ at her face, I can see
The bones of an Egyptian dynasty
The eyelids open just a crack below the lashes,
Shining back like scimitars,
Across the night at me
Well it’s four am, who knows how far
My rope’d run if I hired a car
Hit each town, never stayed
Left the motel bills unpaid
Just defied the way they say things are
In my mind I see that final town
Outta cash, axles in the ground
Lying in a hostel bed
No-one there to hold my head
Some internal organ breakin’ down
I can feel the midnight fading, all desires
Are out there with you singing in the wires
I wonder when the corner shop is open,
If the wind’ll drop before the dawn,
And frost up all the tires
It’s four in the morning, what can I do
A Don Alejandros should see me through
The hard reality is this
I got woken with a kiss
Once upon a time, one night with you
I can’t sleep, and if I try
I can’t follow where she goes
When she closes those beautiful eyes
The shadowland those silken tents are drawn across,
The continent of heresy she wanders in
Savoring the call to maybe this time,
Make it permanent
I’ll give up smoking one day, maybe soon
Dogs’ll give up barking at the moon
Keeping watch across the hour
I’ll maybe one day find a tower
And open up a lighthouse come saloon
Lookin’ at her face, I can see
The bones of an Egyptian dynasty
The eyelids open just a crack below the lashes,
Shining back like scimitars,
Across the night at me
Well it’s four am, who knows how far
My rope’d run if I hired a car
Hit each town, never stayed
Left the motel bills unpaid
Just defied the way they say things are
In my mind I see that final town
Outta cash, axles in the ground
Lying in a hostel bed
No-one there to hold my head
Some internal organ breakin’ down
I can feel the midnight fading, all desires
Are out there with you singing in the wires
I wonder when the corner shop is open,
If the wind’ll drop before the dawn,
And frost up all the tires
It’s four in the morning, what can I do
A Don Alejandros should see me through
The hard reality is this
I got woken with a kiss
Once upon a time, one night with you
The Mansions lyrics - Cold Chisel
I went down to The Mansions
Catch the early morning crowd
I went down to The Mansions
Catch the early morning crowd
They got My Way on the jukebox
And everybody belts it out
There’s a big black van in upper Kellett Street
Men in body armour moving softly on their feet
The whisper is the shotguns are staked out in pursuit
Of a man in a room above a house of ill-repute
I went down to The Mansions
Catch the early morning crowd
I went down to The Mansions
Catch the early morning crowd
They got My Way on the jukebox
And everybody belts it out
The gendarmes lead the escapee, half asleep and wired
Barefoot out the doorway, and not a shot is fired
The drunks are on the street now, schooners in their hand
Ready for the punchline as it rolls around again
I went down to The Mansions
I went down to The Mansions
I went down to The Mansions
I went down to The Mansions
They got My Way on the jukebox
And everybody belts it out
Catch the early morning crowd
I went down to The Mansions
Catch the early morning crowd
They got My Way on the jukebox
And everybody belts it out
There’s a big black van in upper Kellett Street
Men in body armour moving softly on their feet
The whisper is the shotguns are staked out in pursuit
Of a man in a room above a house of ill-repute
I went down to The Mansions
Catch the early morning crowd
I went down to The Mansions
Catch the early morning crowd
They got My Way on the jukebox
And everybody belts it out
The gendarmes lead the escapee, half asleep and wired
Barefoot out the doorway, and not a shot is fired
The drunks are on the street now, schooners in their hand
Ready for the punchline as it rolls around again
I went down to The Mansions
I went down to The Mansions
I went down to The Mansions
I went down to The Mansions
They got My Way on the jukebox
And everybody belts it out
The Toast Of Paris lyrics - Cold Chisel
We both know you’ll be leaving soon, flying for a day
Following a heart already gone
I can hear your conversation turning inward and away
We both know when it happens you’ll be flying out alone
I’ll watch you disappear like a stone into the blue
Take the loss and never let it show
You think your destination is waiting just for you
But you don’t know yet how much further you’ll need to go
It takes more than a sulky mouth
To be the toast of Paris
No matter what they told ya
No matter what they told ya
It takes more than a sulky mouth
To be the toast of Paris
I know that won’t hold you here
I know that won’t hold you
I love you for the way you still believe that you’re invincible
The way tomorrow has to happen now
I love the way you’re driven by a heart so incorruptible
But there’ll be ways to break it, and people who know how
I have seen the girls of Paris like gazelles on meth-amphetamines
Cashing in their only ticket home
Strung on the catwalk, loaded into limousines
To fill the kind of parties where you never see the dawn
It takes more than a sulky mouth
To be the toast of Paris...
We both know you’ll flying out alone
Riding on a ticket no return
I love you and I’ll pray for you out here on the edge I’ll burn
A candle every day until the day you get to learn
It takes more than a sulky mouth
To be the toast of Paris...
Following a heart already gone
I can hear your conversation turning inward and away
We both know when it happens you’ll be flying out alone
I’ll watch you disappear like a stone into the blue
Take the loss and never let it show
You think your destination is waiting just for you
But you don’t know yet how much further you’ll need to go
It takes more than a sulky mouth
To be the toast of Paris
No matter what they told ya
No matter what they told ya
It takes more than a sulky mouth
To be the toast of Paris
I know that won’t hold you here
I know that won’t hold you
I love you for the way you still believe that you’re invincible
The way tomorrow has to happen now
I love the way you’re driven by a heart so incorruptible
But there’ll be ways to break it, and people who know how
I have seen the girls of Paris like gazelles on meth-amphetamines
Cashing in their only ticket home
Strung on the catwalk, loaded into limousines
To fill the kind of parties where you never see the dawn
It takes more than a sulky mouth
To be the toast of Paris...
We both know you’ll flying out alone
Riding on a ticket no return
I love you and I’ll pray for you out here on the edge I’ll burn
A candle every day until the day you get to learn
It takes more than a sulky mouth
To be the toast of Paris...
Shoot The Moon lyrics - Cold Chisel
We’ve been dancing around this feeling
Tip tiptoeing around that word
It’s so easy to say but God dammit
Nobody wanna say it first
Nobody wanna say it first
How high is the moon tonight
It ain’t too high to shoot
You can take it or leave it or hit the ground running
Right here on the end of my boot
Love is loaded and so is my gun, filled right to the hilt
So take a chance now mama, horizontal or standing, gonna shake you ’til I make you tilt
Shake you ’til I make you tilt
Don’t you think it’s time
I know what’s on your mind
Way down south we can get a little liquor
Way down south where the air gets thicker
Come on baby now
Here’s the kicker
Bite that bullet, pull it Pull the trigger
Cock the hammer and hammer the lock
You’re looking pretty cute
In your little white frock with your
All night boots ridin’ up your thighs
What you got in your clip
Can only fantasise
Spin that chamber and fire
An’ hope to fuck I get out alive
Don’t you think it’s time
You know what’s on my mind
Can’t hold on now, the moon’s gettin’ bigger
Down that rye, suck on that jigger
Eye to eye, together I figure
Gonna bite that bullet, come on pull it, pull it
Pull the trigger
Tip tiptoeing around that word
It’s so easy to say but God dammit
Nobody wanna say it first
Nobody wanna say it first
How high is the moon tonight
It ain’t too high to shoot
You can take it or leave it or hit the ground running
Right here on the end of my boot
Love is loaded and so is my gun, filled right to the hilt
So take a chance now mama, horizontal or standing, gonna shake you ’til I make you tilt
Shake you ’til I make you tilt
Don’t you think it’s time
I know what’s on your mind
Way down south we can get a little liquor
Way down south where the air gets thicker
Come on baby now
Here’s the kicker
Bite that bullet, pull it Pull the trigger
Cock the hammer and hammer the lock
You’re looking pretty cute
In your little white frock with your
All night boots ridin’ up your thighs
What you got in your clip
Can only fantasise
Spin that chamber and fire
An’ hope to fuck I get out alive
Don’t you think it’s time
You know what’s on my mind
Can’t hold on now, the moon’s gettin’ bigger
Down that rye, suck on that jigger
Eye to eye, together I figure
Gonna bite that bullet, come on pull it, pull it
Pull the trigger
Mexican Wedding lyrics - Cold Chisel
It was never ever easy
Going inside her mind
Going into the Mexican wedding of her fevered brain
It was never ever easy
Looking deep in her eyes
There was no guaranteeing you could shoot your way outta there again
Gay pistoleros
Drinking and fighting
Playing guitars
And pissing all over the lawn
Lusty senoras
Kicking and biting
Blowing their kisses and tossing their hair in the dawn
It was never ever easy
I used to crawl out of bed
Half insane from the Mexican wedding going on in her head
It was never ever easy
You can take it from me
That the Mexican wedding in her head was a bad place to be
Lonely conchitas
Slamming tequilas
Fat federales smoking and scratching their balls
Black-eyed bandidos
Firing their pistols
Singing yi yi yi yi yi for no reason at all
It was never ever easy
It used to fill me with dread
Going into the Mexican wedding going on in her head
Going inside her mind
Going into the Mexican wedding of her fevered brain
It was never ever easy
Looking deep in her eyes
There was no guaranteeing you could shoot your way outta there again
Gay pistoleros
Drinking and fighting
Playing guitars
And pissing all over the lawn
Lusty senoras
Kicking and biting
Blowing their kisses and tossing their hair in the dawn
It was never ever easy
I used to crawl out of bed
Half insane from the Mexican wedding going on in her head
It was never ever easy
You can take it from me
That the Mexican wedding in her head was a bad place to be
Lonely conchitas
Slamming tequilas
Fat federales smoking and scratching their balls
Black-eyed bandidos
Firing their pistols
Singing yi yi yi yi yi for no reason at all
It was never ever easy
It used to fill me with dread
Going into the Mexican wedding going on in her head
Get Lucky lyrics - Cold Chisel
I’ve walked the highway as a sinner
It’s just a lonely road from hell
And my shoes are wearin’ thinner
As far as I can tell
I might get lucky...
Yeah lucky
Some say that time can heal your soul
That won’t help me find my goal
Though my heart may skip a beat
I ain’t slow on my two feet
I might get lucky...
Yeah lucky
I wanna believe
There’ll come a point in time
I’ll face all my demons
That tempt all mankind
Find absolution
Before it’s too late
To break these chains
Start a clean slate
The good book says the flesh is weak
Please believe me if you can
It’s attention I seek
And I am but a man
I might get lucky...
Yeah lucky
You know I’m not the one to give up
My hour glass is losing sand
Can you understand
When things get out of hand
I might get lucky...
Can you show me what love is
Do you understand
When things get out of hand
I might get lucky...
Come show me what love is
Why won’t you understand
When things get out of hand
I might get lucky...
Yeah lucky
Yeah lucky
Whoa lucky
It’s just a lonely road from hell
And my shoes are wearin’ thinner
As far as I can tell
I might get lucky...
Yeah lucky
Some say that time can heal your soul
That won’t help me find my goal
Though my heart may skip a beat
I ain’t slow on my two feet
I might get lucky...
Yeah lucky
I wanna believe
There’ll come a point in time
I’ll face all my demons
That tempt all mankind
Find absolution
Before it’s too late
To break these chains
Start a clean slate
The good book says the flesh is weak
Please believe me if you can
It’s attention I seek
And I am but a man
I might get lucky...
Yeah lucky
You know I’m not the one to give up
My hour glass is losing sand
Can you understand
When things get out of hand
I might get lucky...
Can you show me what love is
Do you understand
When things get out of hand
I might get lucky...
Come show me what love is
Why won’t you understand
When things get out of hand
I might get lucky...
Yeah lucky
Yeah lucky
Whoa lucky
Bus Station lyrics - Cold Chisel
Hey you with the head on
Yeah, I mean you
When the owner bombs this place
Watcha gonna do
I got one eye on the minute hand
One eye on a girl
One eye is a rubberband
Gonna flick away this world
Bus station
Lotta time to kill
Lotta miles
Lotta pills
Lotta time to kill
Hey you in the uniform
Yeah, I mean you
When the revolution comes
Watcha gonna do
Fat girl with a travel rug
She’s got a chiko roll
Fat girl with a travel rug
I’m gonna lose control
Bus station
Lotta time to kill
Lotta miles
Lotta pills
Lotta time to kill
Like a big cat in a little cage
A king in a cell
Its too bad, a man my age
To know this place too well
Like a dead man on the underground
On a long weekend
Things keep goin’ round and round
And I’ll be back again
Bus station
Yeah, I mean you
When the owner bombs this place
Watcha gonna do
I got one eye on the minute hand
One eye on a girl
One eye is a rubberband
Gonna flick away this world
Bus station
Lotta time to kill
Lotta miles
Lotta pills
Lotta time to kill
Hey you in the uniform
Yeah, I mean you

She’s got a chiko roll
Fat girl with a travel rug

A king in a cell
Its too bad, a man my age
To know this place too well
Like a dead man on the underground
On a long weekend
Things keep goin’ round and round
And I’ll be back again

Lost lyrics - Cold Chisel
Wired but alive
At the break of the day
As the last few survivors
Fall away, fall away
And I get a little lost sometimes
A little lost sometimes
In the night
I get a little lost sometimes
A little bit lost sometimes
That’s alright
Time is a tease
All those feathers and fans
And unfinished symphonies
And you
With your broken plans
And your day’s demands
And I get a little lost sometimes...
Outside, sirens, join and fade
Wired but alive
We got it made
We got it made
And I get a little lost sometimes...
At the break of the day
As the last few survivors
Fall away, fall away
And I get a little lost sometimes
A little lost sometimes
In the night
I get a little lost sometimes
A little bit lost sometimes
That’s alright
Time is a tease
All those feathers and fans
And unfinished symphonies
And you
With your broken plans
And your day’s demands
And I get a little lost sometimes...
Outside, sirens, join and fade
Wired but alive
We got it made
We got it made
And I get a little lost sometimes...
Romantic Lies lyrics - Romantic Lies
Who cares if it’s true
When I say
In the temple of my heart, a candle burns for you
That turns my night into day
Romantic lies
Like wine
Like a midnight line
Make a girl go downtown
Romantic lies
Make the world go round
Who cares if I swear
That my love for you
Is so much more than a wild affair
For a weekend or two
Romantic lies
Like wine
Like a diamond mine
Make a girl go downtown
Romantic lies
Make the world go round
Romantic lies are
As easy as breathing
Cool as believing
That each kiss has a fairytale ending
Just close your eyes
Romantic lies
They say
Like a holiday
Make the world go downtown
Romantic lies
Make the world go round
When I say
In the temple of my heart, a candle burns for you
That turns my night into day
Romantic lies
Like wine
Like a midnight line
Make a girl go downtown
Romantic lies
Make the world go round
Who cares if I swear
That my love for you
Is so much more than a wild affair
For a weekend or two
Romantic lies
Like wine
Like a diamond mine
Make a girl go downtown
Romantic lies
Make the world go round
Romantic lies are
As easy as breathing
Cool as believing
That each kiss has a fairytale ending
Just close your eyes
Romantic lies
They say
Like a holiday
Make the world go downtown
Romantic lies
Make the world go round
Blue Flame lyrics - Cold Chisel
Love burns like a blue flame
A blue flame, a blue flame
Love burns like a blue flame
How can I be free
Love burns like a blue flame
Through the night, your name
Still burns like a blue flame
How can I be free
How can I be free
Wandering alone
All night long the way I do
Wherever you are tonight
How can I make you see
The torch I’m carrying for you
Still burns
(Love burns, still burns,
still burns like a blue flame...)
How can I be free
When everywhere I go
The word is you have been untrue
How can I be free
When everybody knows
The torch I’m carrying for you
Still burns
(Love burns, still burns
still burns like a blue flame...)
A blue flame, a blue flame
Love burns like a blue flame
How can I be free
Love burns like a blue flame
Through the night, your name
Still burns like a blue flame
How can I be free
How can I be free
Wandering alone
All night long the way I do
Wherever you are tonight
How can I make you see
The torch I’m carrying for you
Still burns
(Love burns, still burns,
still burns like a blue flame...)
How can I be free
When everywhere I go
The word is you have been untrue
How can I be free
When everybody knows
The torch I’m carrying for you
Still burns
(Love burns, still burns
still burns like a blue flame...)
No Plans lyrics - Cold Chisel
I’m standing in the sun, smoking a cigarette, no plans
I’m a primate
I feel no pain got no i-phone
Pluggin’ into my brain I’m hangin’ alone
In the sun, smoking a cigarette, no plans
Yeah fuck you!
I’m just standing on the corner, smokin’, taking in the wider view
I’m on location I got rivers of the dead
Heading down to the station I’m thinkin’ about goin’ back to bed
‘Cause I can, no plans
If I had a plan I’d take it down and hock it
Then someone else’d own my time
Then I’d be polishing another man’s rocket
Instead a hangin’ here, looking for a rhyme
In the sun, smoking a cigarette, watching the traffic jam up
Thinkin’ about gettin’ me a black coffee in a take-away cup
Maybe tippin’ in a little medicine
From what I got hidden in a paperbag
Standing in the sun, smoking a cigarette, no plans
[solo]
If I had plans I’d be tempted to sell ‘em
Then someone else’d own my time
Then I’d be working on another man’s plans
I’d never get to pay for the crime, to tell him
Shut the fuck up!
Don’t ever let ‘em catch you talkin’ to yourself
Let alone in rhyme
I’m standing in the ruins, looking at the end
Of all mankind, leaning back again
In the sun, smoking a cigarette, no plans
Yeah I’m standing in the ruins, looking at the end
Of all mankind, leaning back again
In the sun, smoking a cigarette, no plans.
I’m a primate
I feel no pain got no i-phone
Pluggin’ into my brain I’m hangin’ alone
In the sun, smoking a cigarette, no plans
Yeah fuck you!
I’m just standing on the corner, smokin’, taking in the wider view
I’m on location I got rivers of the dead
Heading down to the station I’m thinkin’ about goin’ back to bed
‘Cause I can, no plans
If I had a plan I’d take it down and hock it
Then someone else’d own my time
Then I’d be polishing another man’s rocket
Instead a hangin’ here, looking for a rhyme
In the sun, smoking a cigarette, watching the traffic jam up
Thinkin’ about gettin’ me a black coffee in a take-away cup
Maybe tippin’ in a little medicine
From what I got hidden in a paperbag
Standing in the sun, smoking a cigarette, no plans
[solo]
If I had plans I’d be tempted to sell ‘em
Then someone else’d own my time
Then I’d be working on another man’s plans
I’d never get to pay for the crime, to tell him
Shut the fuck up!
Don’t ever let ‘em catch you talkin’ to yourself
Let alone in rhyme
I’m standing in the ruins, looking at the end
Of all mankind, leaning back again
In the sun, smoking a cigarette, no plans
Yeah I’m standing in the ruins, looking at the end
Of all mankind, leaning back again
In the sun, smoking a cigarette, no plans.
Everybody lyrics - Cold Chisel
Everybody wants to be a wannabe
Living in a limousine
Everybody wants to be a tragedy
In a supermarket magazine
Everybody wants to be famous
Everybody wants more things
Everybody longs to feel the pain
That a whole lotta money’s gonna bring
Everybody wants their name on the guest list
Everybody wants to get in free
Everybody wants complete fidelity
From two or three lovers simultaneously
Everybody wants to be an individual
Everybody else does too
All I wanna be is idiot free
And outta here with you
Everybody wants to have children
No-one wants to hang around
Everybody wants the world to cry
When they’re lying in the cold cold ground
Everybody wants the ideal body
Waiting when they get back home
Whether that’s the one in Shanghai, London
New York City or the villa in Rome
Everybody wants to be an individual
Everybody else does too
All I wanna be is idiot free
And outta here with you
Everybody thinks they might have been kidnapped
And examined in a U.F.O.
Everybody’s locked into too much hock
To ever think about what they don’t want you to know
And still they’re gunna be an individual
Everybody else is too
All I wanna be is idiot free
And outta here with you
Living in a limousine
Everybody wants to be a tragedy
In a supermarket magazine
Everybody wants to be famous
Everybody wants more things
Everybody longs to feel the pain
That a whole lotta money’s gonna bring
Everybody wants their name on the guest list
Everybody wants to get in free
Everybody wants complete fidelity
From two or three lovers simultaneously
Everybody wants to be an individual
Everybody else does too
All I wanna be is idiot free
And outta here with you
Everybody wants to have children
No-one wants to hang around
Everybody wants the world to cry
When they’re lying in the cold cold ground
Everybody wants the ideal body
Waiting when they get back home
Whether that’s the one in Shanghai, London
New York City or the villa in Rome
Everybody wants to be an individual
Everybody else does too
All I wanna be is idiot free
And outta here with you
Everybody thinks they might have been kidnapped
And examined in a U.F.O.
Everybody’s locked into too much hock
To ever think about what they don’t want you to know
And still they’re gunna be an individual
Everybody else is too
All I wanna be is idiot free
And outta here with you
All For You lyrics - Cold Chisel
I get home and clean up, put on my best shirt
Put on my good shoes
My arms are hard from what I do all day
And it’s all for you, all for you
As I drive over by the steeple, by the hill
The rain is gone, the night is new
The constellations are coming out again
And it’s all for you, all for you
It’s all for you there are songs in the world
I’m singing softly as I drive
It’s all for you, cause you’re the only girl
And I’m young again
And it feels so good to be alive
I’ll take you out, we’ll find a place to eat
Somewhere small, with a view
And later on we’ll go dancing if you like
All for you, for you
The old anger has given way
To clear eyes and open hands
I’m getting stronger with each new day
Cause now I understand
It’s all for you there are songs in the world
I’m singing softly as I drive
It’s all for you, cause you’re the only girl
And I’m young again
And it feels so good to be alive
Put on my good shoes
My arms are hard from what I do all day
And it’s all for you, all for you
As I drive over by the steeple, by the hill
The rain is gone, the night is new
The constellations are coming out again
And it’s all for you, all for you
It’s all for you there are songs in the world
I’m singing softly as I drive
It’s all for you, cause you’re the only girl
And I’m young again
And it feels so good to be alive
I’ll take you out, we’ll find a place to eat
Somewhere small, with a view
And later on we’ll go dancing if you like
All for you, for you
The old anger has given way
To clear eyes and open hands
I’m getting stronger with each new day
Cause now I understand
It’s all for you there are songs in the world
I’m singing softly as I drive
It’s all for you, cause you’re the only girl
And I’m young again
And it feels so good to be alive
HQ454 Monroe lyrics - Cold Chisel
You tell me that you’re leaving me
For someone you believe to be
Devoted just to you and you alone
Well goodbye baby, you know I’ll
Be thinkin’ of you only while
I get my Chevy motor fully blown
When you said I had to choose between
This muscle car and you, my queen
There was only one way that could ever go
I used to get home when I could
But there was nothing there as good
As when I light the nitro on my
HQ454 Monroe
She got fuelie heads, a tunnel ram
Roller rockers, lumpy cam
A seated seta new L34’s
Gotta new four hundred Hydra shift
Simmons wheels, nine inch diff
Bridgestone Eagers, twelve inch just because
She’s got four a colour, four a clear
She’s lookin’ better year by year
And unlike you tonight she’s riding low
So baby its goodbye
You could never get me high
Like when I light the nitro on my
HQ454 Monroe
Well baby if I had to guess
I’d say your man is more or less
The figment of an overheated dream
The kinda thing a girl like you
Can fantasize to get you through
And rectify your battered self esteem
I’ll bet he comes to get you in
Some shopping trolley kinda thing
That gets you where you’re going nice and slow
Well off you go that’s fine
The pleasure’s all mine
When I light the nitro on my
HQ454 Monroe
For someone you believe to be
Devoted just to you and you alone
Well goodbye baby, you know I’ll
Be thinkin’ of you only while
I get my Chevy motor fully blown
When you said I had to choose between
This muscle car and you, my queen
There was only one way that could ever go
I used to get home when I could
But there was nothing there as good
As when I light the nitro on my
HQ454 Monroe
She got fuelie heads, a tunnel ram
Roller rockers, lumpy cam

Gotta new four hundred Hydra shift

Bridgestone Eagers, twelve inch just because
She’s got four a colour, four a clear
She’s lookin’ better year by year
And unlike you tonight she’s riding low
So baby its goodbye
You could never get me high
Like when I light the nitro on my
HQ454 Monroe
Well baby if I had to guess
I’d say your man is more or less
The figment of an overheated dream
The kinda thing a girl like you

Well off you go that’s fine

Dead And Laid To Rest lyrics - Cold Chisel
How many torments
I’ve had in my time?
Was looking for love
By I was too blind
I stepped in the circle
To play out the game
But all that I offered
Just turned out the same
A little bit more a little bit less
Deeper in love and deeper in debt
I look at the stars that I cannot give
Without some feeling I just can’t live
Wake and remember that no one is blessed
Now I know the truth
Is dead and laid to rest
No sound but a river
That run’s from my heart
It flows from a mountain
Then tears me apart
Will there come a season
That I will not weep?
I prayed like you wanted
But it all felt too cheap
A little bit more a little bit less
Deeper in love and deeper in debt
I look at the stars that I cannot give
Without some feeling I just can’t live
Wake and remember that no one is blessed
Now I know the truth
Is dead and laid to rest
Sometimes I am frightened alone in the dark
You know I can’t hide it,
I’ve been waiting until the hurting starts
A little bit more a little bit less
Deeper in love and deeper in debt
I look at the stars that I cannot give
Without some feeling I just can’t live
Wake and remember that no one is blessed
Now I know the truth
Is dead and laid to rest
I’ve had in my time?
Was looking for love
By I was too blind
I stepped in the circle
To play out the game
But all that I offered
Just turned out the same
A little bit more a little bit less
Deeper in love and deeper in debt
I look at the stars that I cannot give
Without some feeling I just can’t live
Wake and remember that no one is blessed
Now I know the truth
Is dead and laid to rest
No sound but a river
That run’s from my heart
It flows from a mountain
Then tears me apart
Will there come a season
That I will not weep?
I prayed like you wanted
But it all felt too cheap
A little bit more a little bit less
Deeper in love and deeper in debt
I look at the stars that I cannot give
Without some feeling I just can’t live
Wake and remember that no one is blessed
Now I know the truth
Is dead and laid to rest
Sometimes I am frightened alone in the dark
You know I can’t hide it,
I’ve been waiting until the hurting starts
A little bit more a little bit less
Deeper in love and deeper in debt
I look at the stars that I cannot give
Without some feeling I just can’t live
Wake and remember that no one is blessed
Now I know the truth
Is dead and laid to rest
Missing A Girl lyrics - Cold Chisel
Looking through the tarmac rain
At the rows of giant birds
They’re all feeding at the gates,
There are tails from all over the world
A million people in between
Hurry by the TV screens
And I just sit here missing a girl
Cuppa coffee, airport bench
Carry on, and me
Something messed up my connection
To where I want to be
Something happened, the line dropped out
Something she don’t wanna talk about
And I just sit here missing a girl
Overhead the speakers tell me
One more delay
I hear the numbers
But my heart’s a million miles away
She made it clear we could still be friends
But she won’t be there to meet me at the other end
And I just sit here missing a girl
She made it clear,
I try to see it through these tears
I know it’s true
And I just sit here missing a girl
At the rows of giant birds
They’re all feeding at the gates,
There are tails from all over the world
A million people in between
Hurry by the TV screens
And I just sit here missing a girl
Cuppa coffee, airport bench
Carry on, and me
Something messed up my connection
To where I want to be
Something happened, the line dropped out
Something she don’t wanna talk about
And I just sit here missing a girl
Overhead the speakers tell me
One more delay
I hear the numbers
But my heart’s a million miles away
She made it clear we could still be friends
But she won’t be there to meet me at the other end
And I just sit here missing a girl
She made it clear,
I try to see it through these tears
I know it’s true
And I just sit here missing a girl
Too Late lyrics - Cold Chisel
Got the news
Just today
Somebody told me
To get here right away
Said you were hurtin’
Said you were low
Couldn’t get a single friend
On the telephone
But it’s . . .
Too late too late too late for love
Too late too too late to start again
Too late to hope for
Some kind of . . happy end
And it was
Too long too long too long ago
These healing years go by so slow
They don’t talk to me
Don’t offer no
Means to an end . . My friend
On and on the lazy river flows
Stretching out beneath the burning sun
Here we are standing in the road
Each about to go our separate ways
Each about to go our separate ways
Just today
Somebody told me
To get here right away
Said you were hurtin’
Said you were low
Couldn’t get a single friend
On the telephone
But it’s . . .
Too late too late too late for love
Too late too too late to start again
Too late to hope for
Some kind of . . happy end
And it was
Too long too long too long ago
These healing years go by so slow
They don’t talk to me
Don’t offer no
Means to an end . . My friend
On and on the lazy river flows
Stretching out beneath the burning sun
Here we are standing in the road
Each about to go our separate ways
Each about to go our separate ways
I Gotta Get Back On The Road lyrics - Cold Chisel
There’s a lone jet-trail west of the moon
Nothing for a thousand miles below
A one-pump roadhouse, late afternoon
My time is over here, I gotta go
I gotta get back on the road
Finish up and pay
There’s nothing here as good as a girl I know
A thousand miles away
I gotta get back on the road
To where I want to be
I won’t see her till I deliver my load
By the light of another day
Outside the highway is parallel
To that stroke of chalk above
As far as I can tell
There are two reasons come to mind
Keep a good man on the run
There’s always some complication left behind
Somewhere, one day, I’ll find the other one
I gotta get back on the road…
Outside the highway waits, another year
Fades and dissipates high in the stratosphere
There’s a lone jet-trail west of the moon
Nothing for a thousand miles below
A one-pump roadhouse, late afternoon
My time is over here, I gotta go
I gotta get back on the road…
Nothing for a thousand miles below
A one-pump roadhouse, late afternoon
My time is over here, I gotta go
I gotta get back on the road
Finish up and pay
There’s nothing here as good as a girl I know
A thousand miles away
I gotta get back on the road
To where I want to be
I won’t see her till I deliver my load
By the light of another day
Outside the highway is parallel
To that stroke of chalk above
As far as I can tell
There are two reasons come to mind
Keep a good man on the run
There’s always some complication left behind
Somewhere, one day, I’ll find the other one
I gotta get back on the road…
Outside the highway waits, another year
Fades and dissipates high in the stratosphere
There’s a lone jet-trail west of the moon
Nothing for a thousand miles below
A one-pump roadhouse, late afternoon
My time is over here, I gotta go
I gotta get back on the road…
Our Old Flame lyrics - Cold Chisel
It’s the eyes that give the game away
As I come through the door
Of a steakhouse off the highway
And I remember years before
Those same eyes, only younger
More innocent somehow
And I wonder about your situation now
Are you married, are there children
Did you ever settle down
With that psychopathic boy
You failed to mention last time round
Or is there just a lonely room
Full of poetry
And lots of mutilated dolls that look like me
Our old flame
Our old flame
When you look at me, will you see
The man that I became
Or will you see the boy I was
See me by the light of our old flame
Our old flame
Pretty soon you’ll cross the room
To take my order down
And recognize the man with whom
You briefly hung around
Am I gonna catch a sign
Of panic in your heart
Like the panic that I’m feeling now in mine
Our old flame
Our old flame
When you look at me, will you see
The man that I became
Or will you see the boy I was
See me by the light of our old flame
Our old flame
As I come through the door
Of a steakhouse off the highway
And I remember years before
Those same eyes, only younger
More innocent somehow
And I wonder about your situation now
Are you married, are there children
Did you ever settle down
With that psychopathic boy
You failed to mention last time round
Or is there just a lonely room
Full of poetry
And lots of mutilated dolls that look like me
Our old flame
Our old flame
When you look at me, will you see
The man that I became
Or will you see the boy I was
See me by the light of our old flame
Our old flame
Pretty soon you’ll cross the room
To take my order down
And recognize the man with whom
You briefly hung around
Am I gonna catch a sign
Of panic in your heart
Like the panic that I’m feeling now in mine
Our old flame
Our old flame
When you look at me, will you see
The man that I became
Or will you see the boy I was
See me by the light of our old flame
Our old flame
This Day lyrics - Cold Chisel
I’m gonna find a way to make this day
The best one so far
It didn’t happen yesterday
Hangin’ in the bar
I rang someone from long ago
Someone from a situation
Long forgotten, better left alone
If you believe in love, you leave the door ajar
I’m gonna find a way to make this day
The best one so far
I’m gonna find a way to blow away the rain
It didn’t happen yesterday
I couldn’t face the train
All around, the office crowd
Filled the city, talking loud
Off their face, I slipped away alone
I wandered home, the streets were empty
As they often are
I’m gonna find a way to make this day
The best one so far
I’m gonna find a way to turn this world around
Find a way to make it through,
And not go down
If you believe in love, that’s the morning star
I’m gonna find a way to make this day
The best one so far
If you believe in love, you leave the door ajar
I’m gonna find a way to make this day
The best one so far
If you believe in love, that’s the morning star
I’m gonna find a way to make this day
The best one so far.
The best one so far
It didn’t happen yesterday
Hangin’ in the bar
I rang someone from long ago
Someone from a situation
Long forgotten, better left alone
If you believe in love, you leave the door ajar
I’m gonna find a way to make this day
The best one so far
I’m gonna find a way to blow away the rain
It didn’t happen yesterday
I couldn’t face the train
All around, the office crowd
Filled the city, talking loud
Off their face, I slipped away alone
I wandered home, the streets were empty
As they often are
I’m gonna find a way to make this day
The best one so far
I’m gonna find a way to turn this world around
Find a way to make it through,
And not go down
If you believe in love, that’s the morning star
I’m gonna find a way to make this day
The best one so far
If you believe in love, you leave the door ajar
I’m gonna find a way to make this day
The best one so far
If you believe in love, that’s the morning star
I’m gonna find a way to make this day
The best one so far.
Summer Moon lyrics - Cold Chisel
Driving the nightshift again
Driving the nightshift again
The times I’ve rolled this line, this same old
Long headed East double lane
Driving these nightshifted eyes
Driving these nightshifted eyes
To light my way from midnight out to Hay
There’s big summer moon on the rise
Puts me in a mind, of once upon a time
A hall above the beach when I was young, it was
Too many years, too far behind
Old piano, saxophone and drum
And hanging out over the sea
That same summer moon laid for me
A road of light on out into the night
A highway to where I could be
If ever I can find that innocence of mind
The wonder in that younger set of eyes
I’ll get it on the road, the rhythm of the line
The wheeling of the desert where it flies
Come on roll up that line baby roll
Light up these nightshifted eyes
Speed my way from midnight out to Hay
Big summer moon on the rise
Speed my way from midnight out to Hay
Big summer moon on the rise
Driving the nightshift again
The times I’ve rolled this line, this same old
Long headed East double lane
Driving these nightshifted eyes
Driving these nightshifted eyes
To light my way from midnight out to Hay
There’s big summer moon on the rise
Puts me in a mind, of once upon a time
A hall above the beach when I was young, it was
Too many years, too far behind
Old piano, saxophone and drum
And hanging out over the sea
That same summer moon laid for me
A road of light on out into the night
A highway to where I could be
If ever I can find that innocence of mind
The wonder in that younger set of eyes
I’ll get it on the road, the rhythm of the line
The wheeling of the desert where it flies
Come on roll up that line baby roll
Light up these nightshifted eyes
Speed my way from midnight out to Hay
Big summer moon on the rise
Speed my way from midnight out to Hay
Big summer moon on the rise
The Horizon lyrics - Cold Chisel
The horizon is wider than it used to be
I ain’t the boy you knew
But on a clear day, I can see
All the way to you
All the way to you
When you’re running blind
From promises broken and re-made
Then broken again
You got no way home
Nothing but the smell of burning bridges in the rain
When I look back now
I see a young man riding on
A one way rail going down
Only holding on
Riding his addiction into
Each new lonely town
The horizon is wider than it used to be
I ain’t the boy you knew
But on a clear day, I can see
All the way to you
All the way to you
I hit the railhead
One night in hell
And even now I
I dunno why I
Looked across at the gaming room
In a cheap hotel
And somehow walked on by
Somehow walked on by
Have you ever seen the western sky
As the sun goes down
Turning indigo to grey
It’s enough to make a man believe
That maybe one more chance could come my way
Maybe one more chance could come my way
The horizon is wider than it used to be
I ain’t the boy you knew
But on a clear day, I can see
All the way to you
All the way to you.
I ain’t the boy you knew
But on a clear day, I can see
All the way to you
All the way to you
When you’re running blind
From promises broken and re-made
Then broken again
You got no way home
Nothing but the smell of burning bridges in the rain
When I look back now
I see a young man riding on
A one way rail going down
Only holding on
Riding his addiction into
Each new lonely town
The horizon is wider than it used to be
I ain’t the boy you knew
But on a clear day, I can see
All the way to you
All the way to you
I hit the railhead
One night in hell
And even now I
I dunno why I
Looked across at the gaming room
In a cheap hotel
And somehow walked on by
Somehow walked on by
Have you ever seen the western sky
As the sun goes down
Turning indigo to grey
It’s enough to make a man believe
That maybe one more chance could come my way
Maybe one more chance could come my way
The horizon is wider than it used to be
I ain’t the boy you knew
But on a clear day, I can see
All the way to you
All the way to you.
I Got Things To Do lyrics - Cold Chisel
I got things to do
I don’t want to
Give me way more time to spend with you
Honey when you’re gone
You’re gone too long
It sure gets lonely when you’re gone away
If you hear me cry
Your name in the night
Baby I’m just tryin’ to find your welcome light
Well there’s only one
You’re thinkin’ of
It sure gets lonely when you’re gone away
My work is done, this is my time
And there’s someone I need to know
Maybe one day we’ll find
We won’t have no need to go
[solo]
My work is done, this is my time
And there’s somewhere I need to go
Maybe one day we’ll find
We won’t have no need to go
I got things to do
I don’t want to
Give me way more time to spend with you
Honey when you’re gone
You’re gone too long
It sure gets lonely when you’re gone away
I got things to do today
I don’t want to
Give me way more time to spend with you
Honey when you’re gone
You’re gone too long
It sure gets lonely when you’re gone away
If you hear me cry
Your name in the night
Baby I’m just tryin’ to find your welcome light
Well there’s only one
You’re thinkin’ of
It sure gets lonely when you’re gone away
My work is done, this is my time
And there’s someone I need to know
Maybe one day we’ll find
We won’t have no need to go
[solo]
My work is done, this is my time
And there’s somewhere I need to go
Maybe one day we’ll find
We won’t have no need to go
I got things to do
I don’t want to
Give me way more time to spend with you
Honey when you’re gone
You’re gone too long
It sure gets lonely when you’re gone away
I got things to do today
Mr Crown Prosecutor lyrics - Cold Chisel
No matter what I say or do
You take money, to put whatever
May be the opposite view
What you see, is what I am
I will always be, an honest man
Mr Crown Prosecutor, raise my hand
I can't say the same about you
Mr. Crown Prosecutor, go down now
I'll show you where your children play
The deep shit they get to play with
And the people that they've got to pay
I got caught, in a traffic jam
A girl on the street, with a chain of command
Goin' up through the city
To the government of the day
Mr. Crown Prosecutor, raise my hand
The hands of a fish so small
You know, if it wasn't so
I wouldn't be here at all
What you see, is what I am
I will always be, an honest man
Lost in the blind stupidity of it all
Mr. Crown Prosecutor, go down now
I'll show you where your children play
The deep shit they get to play with
And the people that they've got to pay
But Mr. Crown Prosecutor, if you look
You'll find where it tells it to ya in this book
How the vine by the well
Gotta branch out over the wall
You take money, to put whatever
May be the opposite view
What you see, is what I am
I will always be, an honest man
Mr Crown Prosecutor, raise my hand
I can't say the same about you
Mr. Crown Prosecutor, go down now
I'll show you where your children play
The deep shit they get to play with
And the people that they've got to pay
I got caught, in a traffic jam
A girl on the street, with a chain of command
Goin' up through the city
To the government of the day
Mr. Crown Prosecutor, raise my hand
The hands of a fish so small
You know, if it wasn't so
I wouldn't be here at all
What you see, is what I am
I will always be, an honest man
Lost in the blind stupidity of it all
Mr. Crown Prosecutor, go down now
I'll show you where your children play
The deep shit they get to play with
And the people that they've got to pay
But Mr. Crown Prosecutor, if you look
You'll find where it tells it to ya in this book
How the vine by the well
Gotta branch out over the wall
The Things I Love In You lyrics - Cold Chisel
Sittin' on the corner drinkin' my beer
Told all the others happy new year
Told everybody some things
I knew
I knew
Told everybody don't cry
How this thing with you
Doesn't really matter any more
Never really mattered anyway
Only I do wonder how you'd feel
If it were you
In my shoes
Could you change, I wonder
If you knew
All the things I love in you
If I had a dollar for every time
I hung out on the corner doin' time
While you showed another through all
All the things I love
Could you change, I wonder
If you knew
All the things I love in you
Told all the others happy new year
Told everybody some things
I knew
I knew
Told everybody don't cry
How this thing with you
Doesn't really matter any more
Never really mattered anyway
Only I do wonder how you'd feel
If it were you
In my shoes
Could you change, I wonder
If you knew
All the things I love in you
If I had a dollar for every time
I hung out on the corner doin' time
While you showed another through all
All the things I love
Could you change, I wonder
If you knew
All the things I love in you
Baby's On Fire lyrics - Cold Chisel
Baby's on fire, it's a beautiful thing
Baby's on fire, it's beginning to sing
Baby's on fire, so imaginative
Nobody else gets to see it and live
Baby's on fire, the moonlight skin
Black and white cinema, outa Berlin
Black and white cinema, flooding inside
Baby's on fire in the submarine tide
Baby's on fire
And I
I'm in flames
I been workin' all day
Baby and I are gonna get it away
I been workin' all day, and all I know
Baby's on fire, the higher and higher we go
And I
I'm in flames
Baby's on fire, it's beginning to sing
Baby's on fire, so imaginative
Nobody else gets to see it and live
Baby's on fire, the moonlight skin
Black and white cinema, outa Berlin
Black and white cinema, flooding inside
Baby's on fire in the submarine tide
Baby's on fire
And I
I'm in flames
I been workin' all day
Baby and I are gonna get it away
I been workin' all day, and all I know
Baby's on fire, the higher and higher we go
And I
I'm in flames
Way Down lyrics - Cold Chisel
Somebody tell me
Where did I go wrong
Oh, what a fool am I
Sometimes
You can feel you don
't belong
Wanna die
Way down
I've been all the way
And I know the reason why
Way down
Is the price I paid
Oh but now I realise
Somebody tell me
That you understand
Oh that I'm not alone
Sometimes
When you need a helpin? hand
Oh I know
Way down
I've been all the way
And I know the reason why
Way down
Is the price I paid
Oh but now I see a light
Way down
Way down
I've been all the way
And I know the reason why
Way down
Is the price I paid
Oh but now I realise
Way down
I've been all the way
And I know the reason why
Way down
Is the price I paid
I don't wanna go no more
Way down
Where did I go wrong
Oh, what a fool am I
Sometimes
You can feel you don
't belong
Wanna die
Way down
I've been all the way
And I know the reason why
Way down
Is the price I paid
Oh but now I realise
Somebody tell me
That you understand
Oh that I'm not alone
Sometimes
When you need a helpin? hand
Oh I know
Way down
I've been all the way
And I know the reason why

Oh but now I see a light
Way down
Way down
I've been all the way
And I know the reason why
Way down
Is the price I paid
Oh but now I realise

And I know the reason why
Way down
Is the price I paid
I don't wanna go no more
Way down
Bal - A - Versailles lyrics - Cold Chisel
Aliester Crowley
And Bar Shem Tov
Are lyin' in the alley
Too stoned to move
Them and Aristotle
Are playin' swy
For one tiny bottle
Of Bal-a-Versailles
Over the ocean
Over the sea
From out of east of Eden
Pre-B.C.
To Terra Incognito
Anno Domini
Hits the libido
Bal-a-Versailles
People say it's an animal thing
A whisper of alien air
People say you're a fool if you fall in love
I say yeah, yeah, yeah
Dogs are barking,
The caravanserai
Rolls on, through the night
Bal-a-Versailles
People say all the usual things
Talkin' and kissin' the air
People say you're a fool if you fall in love
I say yeah, yeah, yeah
Reason for living
Reason to die
Take it as given
Bal-a-Versailles
Dogs are barking,
The caravanserai
Rolls on, through the night
Bal-a-Versailles
And Bar Shem Tov
Are lyin' in the alley
Too stoned to move

Yakuza Girls lyrics - Cold Chisel
Well, its the last call at the fag end
Of the wrong bar at the bad end
Of the wrong side of a dog town
On a one way road that takes you down
From a shit creek, and back again
The doors swing open and they all come in
From the arse end of a sick world
A bus load of Yakuza girls
Yakuza girls, chicks of doom
Fanning out to cover the room
Smokin' Luckys, climbin the bar
Drinkin' saki from an old fruit jar
Yakuza girls, 12 o'clock high
Fishnets all the way to Hawaii
Playin' karioke and singin' along
With the key words of a lock'n'loll song
Well, ya get to see 'em all comin' through this place
Every household name then forgotten face
Every fucked up, low down, pin tucked, rewound
Siliconed, pillsucker has been that ever found
Jesus in the bottom of a bottle, Yeah
I reckon I'd seen it all, but I swear
I never seen this much potential romance since
Lovelace Watkins split his pants
Yakuza girls, climbin' the walls
Chewin' on gum, grabbin' my balls
And tellin' me to cough, seein' how far
They can pole dance off the end of the bar
Yakuza girls, doin' the dog
With a yo-yo in and outa the bog
Who's that haulin' on a rubber glove
Yakuza girls, lookin' for love.
Of the wrong bar at the bad end
Of the wrong side of a dog town
On a one way road that takes you down
From a shit creek, and back again
The doors swing open and they all come in
From the arse end of a sick world
A bus load of Yakuza girls
Yakuza girls, chicks of doom
Fanning out to cover the room
Smokin' Luckys, climbin the bar
Drinkin' saki from an old fruit jar
Yakuza girls, 12 o'clock high
Fishnets all the way to Hawaii
Playin' karioke and singin' along

He Can't Believe It's Over With You lyrics - Cold Chisel
There's someone out there hangin' around
Mentioning your name all over town
Some old flame of yours
Someone you knew
And he can't believe it's over with you
He says that he is where you belong
You tell me you ain't seen him in so long
Maybe he's the fool
Maybe it's true
That he can't believe it's over with you
I may need to take him aside
See if you have anything to hide
Make it plain to him
What I will do
If he can't believe it's over with you
Whichever way it goes
I can easily explain it so he knows
How it is with you
These days
I can't walk away
That's not what I do
When he can't believe it's over with you
Mentioning your name all over town
Some old flame of yours
Someone you knew
And he can't believe it's over with you
He says that he is where you belong
You tell me you ain't seen him in so long
Maybe he's the fool
Maybe it's true
That he can't believe it's over with you
I may need to take him aside
See if you have anything to hide
Make it plain to him
What I will do
If he can't believe it's over with you
Whichever way it goes
I can easily explain it so he knows
How it is with you
These days
I can't walk away
That's not what I do
When he can't believe it's over with you
Angel In My Room lyrics - Cold Chisel
There's an angel in the shadows of my room
And she watches me when I'm all alone
When my sad heart is hurt and crying
That's when she comes to me
And she leads me home
If I close my eyes
And I take her hand
I can see you right there
Where my angel stands
Into the night when I'm missing you
I lay me down with the angel in my room
And in the shadows she stands alone
And she's waiting for me
When I'm coming home
Into the night when I'm missing you
I lay me down with the angel in my room
I see the tears in my baby's eyes
But in the distance I still hear her cry
And baby I'm longing but it passes by
When I hold you in my arms
Everything will be all right
If I close my eyes I can see her there
I can see you right there
Where my angel stands
Into the night when I'm missing you
I lay me down with the angel in my room
That's when I lay me down with the angel in my room
And she watches me when I'm all alone
When my sad heart is hurt and crying
That's when she comes to me
And she leads me home
If I close my eyes
And I take her hand
I can see you right there
Where my angel stands
Into the night when I'm missing you
I lay me down with the angel in my room
And in the shadows she stands alone
And she's waiting for me
When I'm coming home
Into the night when I'm missing you
I lay me down with the angel in my room
I see the tears in my baby's eyes
But in the distance I still hear her cry
And baby I'm longing but it passes by
When I hold you in my arms
Everything will be all right
If I close my eyes I can see her there
I can see you right there
Where my angel stands
Into the night when I'm missing you
I lay me down with the angel in my room
That's when I lay me down with the angel in my room
Never Stop Loving You lyrics - Cold Chisel
Well it's taken so long to reach the time
Where we can go on or leave it behind
For better or worse so easy to say
But I choke on the words as you push me away
And every move along the way
Has moved us each in separate ways
And I can feel there's something
Going wrong
Oh I'll never stop loving you this life
Maybe I'm wrong maybe I'm right
Well I look in your eyes You never look back
All the sparkle is gone there's nothing left
But the black
What's the use of holding back
The best defence is still attack
And don't give up before the battle's
Won
[CHORUS]
I'll never stop loving you this life
Maybe I'm wrong maybe I'm right
Can't turn and run when I can fight
I'll never stop loving you this life.
Where we can go on or leave it behind
For better or worse so easy to say
But I choke on the words as you push me away
And every move along the way
Has moved us each in separate ways
And I can feel there's something
Going wrong
Oh I'll never stop loving you this life
Maybe I'm wrong maybe I'm right
Well I look in your eyes You never look back
All the sparkle is gone there's nothing left
But the black
What's the use of holding back
The best defence is still attack
And don't give up before the battle's
Won
[CHORUS]
I'll never stop loving you this life
Maybe I'm wrong maybe I'm right
Can't turn and run when I can fight
I'll never stop loving you this life.
Red Sand lyrics - Cold Chisel
Way out back of the Coolgardie
Round the turn of the century
Two riders came out of the west
They were lookin' for the colour of gold
Trading on an old red blanket
Took 'em in a young boy
Passed him on to a pearl lugger
That was Java bound outta Roebuck Bay
The crew were mainly Manila men
And the young boy must have known
He'd never be back now
Down in the red sand
Manila-man got the machete
Manila-man cut him down cold
Die with the Balander boss on a lugger
Could not have been more
Than twelve years old
Looking out on a clear sky
As the sun beats down on her head
A mother alone
Fails to understand
And as the long years go by
Just an old red blanket to dry
The tears for the son
Who'll never be home
Down in the red sand
Round the turn of the century
Two riders came out of the west
They were lookin' for the colour of gold
Trading on an old red blanket
Took 'em in a young boy
Passed him on to a pearl lugger
That was Java bound outta Roebuck Bay
The crew were mainly Manila men
And the young boy must have known
He'd never be back now
Down in the red sand
Manila-man got the machete
Manila-man cut him down cold
Die with the Balander boss on a lugger
Could not have been more
Than twelve years old
Looking out on a clear sky
As the sun beats down on her head
A mother alone
Fails to understand
And as the long years go by
Just an old red blanket to dry
The tears for the son
Who'll never be home
Down in the red sand
Pretty Little Thing lyrics - Cold Chisel
Pretty little thing there's a smoky moon
Pretty little thing up between the dunes
Pretty little thing there's a place I know
Pretty little thing, lets go
I say yeah,
yeah,
yeah,
Pretty little thing, I want you
Pretty little thing the way you stagger around
Like Bambi gotten lost on a handful o' mandies
An' all o' these hillbillies hangin' around
To see if you can handle it, and fillin' their immediate plans with you
Well they don't know jack shit and for all o' your
Juiced up, anyone's, user pays little act
You know you ain't never gonna fall
And there ain't no one o' them'll ever get to lay their hands on you
I say yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah,
Pretty little thing when you need a ride
Pretty little thing I got the wheels outside
I say yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah,
Pretty little thing you know I can't afford the time
I get easily bored
Pretty little thing underneath what's real o' that
Pretty little thing for the taking deal, well
Pretty little thing you know I just might feel like
Goin' for a ride in the moonlight and doin' what I can for you
Pretty little thing up between the dunes
Pretty little thing there's a place I know
Pretty little thing, lets go
I say yeah,
yeah,
yeah,
Pretty little thing, I want you
Pretty little thing the way you stagger around
Like Bambi gotten lost on a handful o' mandies
An' all o' these hillbillies hangin' around
To see if you can handle it, and fillin' their immediate plans with you
Well they don't know jack shit and for all o' your
Juiced up, anyone's, user pays little act
You know you ain't never gonna fall
And there ain't no one o' them'll ever get to lay their hands on you
I say yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah,
Pretty little thing when you need a ride
Pretty little thing I got the wheels outside
I say yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah,
Pretty little thing you know I can't afford the time
I get easily bored
Pretty little thing underneath what's real o' that
Pretty little thing for the taking deal, well
Pretty little thing you know I just might feel like
Goin' for a ride in the moonlight and doin' what I can for you
So Hard lyrics - Cold Chisel
They're so hard
Women, that is
So hard
And all that I ever know
Of you
Is the damage you can do
And it breaks the other way, I know
It's so hard
For so long
You were the one
For so long, now
Anyone who denied
Your way
Had to play with the two of us
Now I feel that's begun to change
And it's so hard
I believe
There's a restlessness growin' in you
And I feel the same
I dunno if there's a day comin' soon
That'll find us alone
Or if that wouldn't be such a bad thing
All I know
Of you
Is the damage you can do
And it breaks the other way, I know
It's so hard
Women, that is
So hard
And all that I ever know
Of you
Is the damage you can do
And it breaks the other way, I know
It's so hard
For so long
You were the one
For so long, now
Anyone who denied
Your way
Had to play with the two of us
Now I feel that's begun to change
And it's so hard
I believe
There's a restlessness growin' in you
And I feel the same
I dunno if there's a day comin' soon
That'll find us alone
Or if that wouldn't be such a bad thing
All I know
Of you
Is the damage you can do
And it breaks the other way, I know
It's so hard
Water Into Wine lyrics - Cold Chisel
On the last wave of summer
I lost my soul to you
The last wave of summer
I lost it all to you
Every thing has a time
This I know is true
I could live foreverCity papers blow around me
As the mornin' hits the sky
On the ocean ships are waitin' high
So am I
City sweeper goes around me
He don't need no reason why
If I don't seem in a hurry now
I've arrived
Come on baby won't you save me
Turn this water into wine
Love, emotion, like an ocean
How can I hold back the tide
Baby meet me on the corner
When you hear that whistle blow
If I don't seem like I oughta
The one you used to know
Come on baby wont you save me
Turn this water into wine
Love, emotion, like an ocean
How can I hold back the tide
I'm on high ground
Put this weight down
Of one thing you can be sure
On the ocean ships are sailin'
But I don't need them anymore
Come on baby won't you save me
Turn this water into wine
Love, emotion, like an ocean
How can I hold back the tide
Come on baby won't you save me
Turn this water into wine
Love, emotion like an ocean
Turn this water into wine
This perfect day with you
There's a cold winter comin'
I can feel the change
It's the last wave of summer
We'll ever see again
Lets ride...
There's a cold winter coming
Can you feel the change

Build This Love lyrics - Cold Chisel
Build this love
Build this love
Build this love
Build this love
Build this love
I'm gonna build this love
I'm gonna build this fire higher and higher
Little by step by little by step
Oh yeah
I get my days
When a voice seems to whisper in my ear
"Baby you don't need this company"
Such cheap emotion
Is gonna break nobody's heart but mine
If you hold me now you can feel it beat
We can start it rockin' with a new sensation
Layin' on hands till you feel the heat
We can build this fire on a new foundation
Build this love
I'm gonna build this love
Build this fire
Outside it's colder now
It's not the time for young and stupid now
If you don't mind beating it heart to heart
We can start it rockin' with a new sensation
Layin' on hands till you feel the heat
We can take control of the situation
What's it gonna be, not another defeat
We can build this fire on a new foundation
Build this love
Build this love
Build this love
Build this love
Build this love
I'm gonna build this love
I'm gonna build this fire higher and higher
Little by step by little by step
Oh yeah
I get my days
When a voice seems to whisper in my ear
"Baby you don't need this company"
Such cheap emotion
Is gonna break nobody's heart but mine
If you hold me now you can feel it beat
We can start it rockin' with a new sensation
Layin' on hands till you feel the heat
We can build this fire on a new foundation
Build this love
I'm gonna build this love
Build this fire
Outside it's colder now
It's not the time for young and stupid now
If you don't mind beating it heart to heart
We can start it rockin' with a new sensation
Layin' on hands till you feel the heat
We can take control of the situation
What's it gonna be, not another defeat
We can build this fire on a new foundation
Build this love
Twentieth Century lyrics - Cold Chisel
Standing on this intersection
Yelling for my change
Watching personalities
Collapse and re-arrange
Gotta smile about it
Gotta surf it out or drown
In the twentieth century
Some guy selling liberty
You've heard it all before
Let's take some pet minority
To fame in eighty-four
Lots of fortunes and
Reputations to be found
In the twentieth century
Yankees lookin' east and west
Before they cross the road
It's Hollywood democracy
It really doesn't bother me
It's entertainment, baby
It explodes
Let the K.G.B. devise
Just what comes after civilised
This intersection's big enough for me
And when I get some change
I'll disappear
It's tricky
But, thank God, it's never organised
I'm talking about this twentieth century
The twentieth century
The twentieth century
Yelling for my change
Watching personalities
Collapse and re-arrange
Gotta smile about it
Gotta surf it out or drown
In the twentieth century
Some guy selling liberty
You've heard it all before
Let's take some pet minority
To fame in eighty-four
Lots of fortunes and
Reputations to be found
In the twentieth century
Yankees lookin' east and west
Before they cross the road
It's Hollywood democracy
It really doesn't bother me
It's entertainment, baby
It explodes
Let the K.G.B. devise
Just what comes after civilised
This intersection's big enough for me
And when I get some change
I'll disappear
It's tricky
But, thank God, it's never organised
I'm talking about this twentieth century
The twentieth century
The twentieth century
Ghost Town lyrics - Cold Chisel
I've been forty days and forty nights
In television land
I'd kill myself with cigarettes
If I could find my hands
Livin' in a ghost town
Take this will and testament
And nail it to the wall
You know I spent my time here
Learning how to crawl
Livin' in a ghost town
And money don't buy water round
The ghost town
I've never found a border round
The ghost town
Whoever sets the weather
Oughta keep it pretty calm
Keep it fine and mild
Cause like a cheap alarm
I'm fuckin' wound
There's just a man on a bad street
Who cannot turn around
Or shout above the heat
Below the knees he's
Buried in the ground
Waking up in Sydney babylon
Is what it's all about
There's only one way in here
And one way out
In television land
I'd kill myself with cigarettes
If I could find my hands
Livin' in a ghost town
Take this will and testament
And nail it to the wall
You know I spent my time here
Learning how to crawl
Livin' in a ghost town
And money don't buy water round
The ghost town
I've never found a border round
The ghost town
Whoever sets the weather
Oughta keep it pretty calm
Keep it fine and mild
Cause like a cheap alarm
I'm fuckin' wound
There's just a man on a bad street
Who cannot turn around
Or shout above the heat
Below the knees he's
Buried in the ground
Waking up in Sydney babylon
Is what it's all about
There's only one way in here
And one way out
Saturday Night lyrics - Cold Chisel
Saturday night
Saturday night
Saturday night
Saturday night
Saturday night's already old
Walking into Sunday, and I find
All desires are cold
I could walk forever, I don't mind
Show me a light, your company
Goes a little way to help me see
The path on which I'm bound
Rather than the things I leave behind
I've got the keys to the city
Baby
I can feel my luck
I got two days' money
If you light me up
This heart will shine on
"L'esclavage D'amour
It will be ours forevermore"
Words we both recall
Either from a lover, or the law
Saturday night, my steps have shown
I can walk away from all I've know
Goodnight, my friend, goodbye
Remember what they say,
When you're alone, laugh or die
Saturday night
Saturday night
Saturday night
Saturday night's already old
Walking into Sunday, and I find
All desires are cold
I could walk forever, I don't mind
Show me a light, your company
Goes a little way to help me see
The path on which I'm bound
Rather than the things I leave behind
I've got the keys to the city
Baby
I can feel my luck
I got two days' money
If you light me up
This heart will shine on
"L'esclavage D'amour
It will be ours forevermore"
Words we both recall
Either from a lover, or the law
Saturday night, my steps have shown
I can walk away from all I've know
Goodnight, my friend, goodbye
Remember what they say,
When you're alone, laugh or die
