Stay (from Donkey With a Fez On)

Stay with me,
Lay with me,
Make a play for me,
Stay and keep me awake,
Tickle me,
Lay on me,
Move around, go up and go down,
But don't stay in one place too long...

Stay, I must be going,
Stay, Without knowing,
Stay, I've stayed too long,
I know I'll put your rights wrong.

Take your time,
Who needs time?
Relax and take your time,
Don't get caught up in the rush,
There's no crime,
Our time is our own,
I've been waiting too long for this,
Please don't let me down, just turn around.

Running away under the moon,
Then I will be in heaven with you.

Stay with me,
Stay close to me,
I need your company,
Please accompany me,
Come to me,
Succumb to me,
Put your hand in mine,
Let's seal our love with a kiss.


Living Changing (from Donkey With a Fez On)

When I'm gone,
You'll find yourself another,
When I'm gone,
You'll find yourself,
When I'm gone,
All by yourself who'll warm you,
When I'm gone,
Nobody else.

Living Changing,
God only knows what life will bring,
Listen quietly and you'll hear my heart sing,
There has to be a winter before there's a spring.

Now you're gone,
I'm just getting by without you,
Now you're gone,
I never realised just how shy I was,
Now you're gone,
I'm gonna try and make it on my own again,
Now you're gone,
I'm gonna try.


In My Confidence (from Donkey With a Fez On)

She's been taken in,
And now she's given in,
I make up her mind,
But I treated her kind.

She's in my confidence,
Taken in by my confidence,
By the tone of my voice she is loves choice,
She's in my confidence,
Taken in by my confidence.

By the tone of my voice she is loves choice,
She's so out of sight,
She's out of her mind,
She's so misinformed,
Her information is deformed,
She's so pick and choose,
But that's alright,
She doesn't even get to see the news,
She gets the edited highlights.

She thinks she's used,
She looks confused,
She looks confused,
She knows she's used,
She thinks she's used,
She knows she's used,
She was lost,
The day that she found me.


You Are The Only One For Me (from Donkey With a Fez On)

Emily, my love is genuine,
Catherine, your love is everything to me,
Margherite, your kisses oh so sweet,
Elizabeth, oh it's you.

Now I see, Could it be?
With this ring, you are the only one for me.

Genuine, my love is genuine,
Everything, your love is everything,
Lonely one, please be my only one,
Show me love, show me all your love.

What you do, promising the moon,
Gently too, too much for me,
Watching you, while I'm loving you,
Watching you, while I'm loving you.


Everything's Alright (from Donkey With a Fez On)

I've been so rudely awoken, from my rock 'n' roll dreams,
Nothing in my life now is really what it sems,
Take a look outside, cold grey metal sky,
Wearing violence in their eyes, they were never meant to be so wild.

How does it feel at the end of the night?
Everything's right, you know that it's alright,
Head in the clouds, city at night,
Everything's right, you know that it's alright.

When you gently persuade me, can it mean everything's gonna work out fine?
I've been having trouble sleping the last couple of days,
The wallpaper's peeling, there's cracks in the ceiling,
Twenty-nine today, I think I've found my first grey,
Those cold lines won't go away, chrome always gives me away.


How Far (from Donkey With a Fez On)

It's all upto you, you can keep it all in if you want to,
And it's upto you, where you going, where you been?
Where you going and can you take me there too?

Ooh ooh, I wanna see how far,
Ooh ooh, I haven't ben this way before,
Oh-how how, In the front seat of your car,
Tell me baby, can we see how far?

Up here with you, taking the wheel, sit in the front seat,
We can do as we please, we can do what we like,
Just as long as...

I'll tell you what we'll do,
Jump on the train to Southend,
I've got some friends there,
Yeah, one or two,
I know there's not much there,
But at least it's something to do,
We can throw stones and drink beer
, Yeah I know we can do all that here.


Why Does It Feel So Cold? (from Donkey With a Fez On)

In the place, where others have a soul,
She has a hole,
And in the place, where others have a heart,
Now mine's torn apart,
Now mine's torn apart.

Why does it feel so cold?
My tears lost at sea for good,
Climb overboard, over this two,
Why does it feel so cold?

There was a time, I revelled in romance,
Now I'm scared to take a chance,
What does it take?
I've never seen you cry,
Tears come from your eyes,
Tears come from your eyes.

What does it take, to break this spell you've cast,
Stop me living in the past,
Because in the place, where other's have a heart....
My life's torn apart,
My life's torn apart....


Butterfly (performed at Carl's 12 Bar Gig)

Could I take you home,
I swear that's what she said to me,
'Cos I've been feeling so alone,
Since he moved in with me.

Her face was lined,
But her eyes were kind,
She roused my curiosity,

Oh how I wish I was so easy with my love,
The way I used to be,

Butterfly, Come back to me,
Butterfly, Come back to me,

I took off all my clothes,
She smiled and then lay next to me,
She said the last time she'd done this,
She'd taken ecstasy.

Her hand in mine,
We made love on time,
She had my curiosity.

Oh how I wish I was so easy with my love,
The way I used to be.

She never weeps,
And memories,
She never keeps,
There is no human in me any more,
And I can't think straight,
Though I never could.
