CHORUS – Maybe it's some kind of love Maybe it’s a dumb kind of love Maybe it’s one kind of love Maybe it’s something new Maybe it’s some kind of love Maybe it’s a dumb kind of love Maybe it’s one kind of love Maybe it’s something... We can make it, if we try – I’ve heard that line before Things in common that we share – not feeling anymore But when we touch and I am lost in space and time, I can fly It means so much to have a feeling so sublime, a natural high Oh why do we have to let reality Bring us down when it feels so good to me CHORUS Find it hard to justify all the hurt and pain Good intentions, wonder why, here we are again But when we touch and I am lost in space and time, I can fly It means so much to have a feeling so sublime, a natural high Oh why do we have to let reality Bring us down coz it feels so good... Feels so good, feels so true, feels so good, oh yeah You’ve got me feelin’ feelin’ yeah But when we touch and I am lost in space and time, I can fly It means so much to have a feeling so sublime, a natural high Oh why do we have to let reality Bring us down coz it feels so good yeah CHORUS

If you can’t find a new beginning, and all the roads, they end the same If you can see the bigger picture, but just can’t keep it in the frame, oh Then look for the moonlight, just look for the moonlight Just follow the moonlight, look for the moonlight Then look for the moonlight, just look for the moonlight Just follow the moonlight, look for the moonlight If you keep your head in all the madness, when all around are losing theirs If every smile is tinged with sadness, and no one ever seems to care, oh Then look for the moonlight, just look for the moonlight Just follow the moonlight, look for the moonlight Then look for the moonlight, just look for the moonlight Just follow the moonlight, look for the moonlight It’s just a reflection, it doesn’t matter what it’s worth, Make a connection, bring it back down, back to earth If you like things a little cooler, if you are happy feeling fine If understatement is your ruler and you don’t want to cross that line, oh Then look for the moonlight, just look for the moonlight Just follow the moonlight, look for the moonlight Then look for the moonlight, just look for the moonlight Just follow the moonlight, look for the moonlight The moonlight, moonlight, follow the moonlight, look for the moonlight The moon, the light Moonlight

Soul, soul, soul, I want your soul Soul, soul, soul, give me your soul I met the devil down in New Orleans, he was having a funky good time He said don’t worry I’ve got just what you need and he told me to go online When all your heads are buried in those screens then my work is almost done Give me your soul and when you’re all machines then I’ll know that this war is won Nothing is real, nothing is true, it’s all make-believe and it’s tailor-made for you Nothing is real, nothing is true, it’s all make-believe and it’s tailor-made for you I said I want your soul Give me your soul I want your soul, oh.

There is a story that I’d like to tell About a girl that casts a magic spell One look in her eyes will leave you mesmerised and when she’s done you’ll be an empty shell Not one hair is out of place See how it perfectly frames her face No tricks with light, no special effects She is a blueprint for the fairer sex Beautiful and talented she’s off the charts She is the keeper of a million hearts If you ever try to take her for a ride She’ll show no mercy when she’s tearing you apart CHORUS – She’s a lion in a cage, she’s a bird on the wing Floating like a queen bee with a deadly sting She’s gonna lick your platter clean Get down on your knees coz she’s the queen, oh, oh uh She is the mistress of all she surveys And she’ll destroy you in so many ways She’ll put your head and your tail in a spin You’ll wonder what state your condition is in Ooh, she’s so cool she’s so hot She’ll make you realise everything you’re not Through the door you come in one by one In the blink of an eye goodnight and you are done CHORUS Oh, yeah yeah, she’s a lion, she’s a lion in a cage Oh, she’s a queen, you better get down on your knees She’s a queen You better get down on your knees, get down, get down on your knees The queen, uh, woohoo CHORUS

You’re the book that I have opened So much more I want to learn Discovering the truth as pages turn But the story isn’t real, wish that I was wrong It’s your touch I want to feel So just lie to me all night long Looking like a lost connection, turn me off, turn me on again Doesn’t even bear reflection, we’ll never take the strain And when you pull me closer, promise me you’ll never go It feels like a line but I don’t know When we touch it feels so real, like the lies are true In the morning I’ll say goodbye Lie to me, one more time, soon you’ll be gone So please just lie to me, all night long All night, all night, all night long When we touch it feels so real, like the lies are true In the morning I’ll say goodbye Lie to me, one more time, tell me how much you love me I’ll carry on so please just lie to me Lie to me, one more time, soon you’ll be gone So please just lie to me, all night long

No one wants to lead us, it’s the same everywhere that you go And they just want to bleed us, only care if their profits are low And they know how to read us, all the data that they need to know Can’t even turn to Jesus, oh when when when will they reap what they sow If you stand and wanna fight, forget your human rights You better have what it takes, you can’t make one mistake When you think of giving in with the skin you’re living in When you only get one chance, you better put up those hands I wish I wish I wish I wish I wish I was too big to fail I wish I was too big to fail I wish I was too big to fail oh Lord I wish I was too big to fail They’ll never show contrition, sack you all and then take a raise They lie about emissions, they don’t care if they add to the haze Just another acquisition, please don’t say that crime never pays No good signing a petition, it doesn’t matter they won’t change their ways If you stand and wanna fight, forget your human rights You better have what it takes, you can’t make one mistake When you think of giving in with the skin you’re living in When you only get one chance, you better put up those hands I wish I wish I wish I wish I wish I was too big to fail I wish I was too big to fail I wish I was too big to fail oh Lord I wish I was too big to fail oh yeah, yeah Too big to fail
