Steal His Share
04:41

He’s got what I want, gonna take it from him
I don’t mind too much just coz stealing is a sin
He don’t deserve it, I’ll make it right
He’ll be the one who sleeps alone in bed tonight
The deck is stacked, This game ain’t fair
I got the better hand so I’m gonna steal his share
He won’t like it, I don’t really care
I got the better hand so I’m gonna steal his share
He’s optimistic about the game we play
But I can guarantee it ain’t gonna be his day
When the battle’s over, when the dust finally sets
I’ll be tasting victory, He’ll only feel regrets
The deck is stacked, This game ain’t fair
I got the better hand so I’m gonna steal his share
He won’t like it, I don’t really care
I got the better hand so I’m gonna steal his share
The steal has been completed, It went just like I planned
I waited till the final draw to play my winning hand
To the victor go the spoils, that everyone can see
It’ll go down in the history books that the winner here was me because
The deck is stacked, This game ain’t fair
I got the better hand so I’m gonna steal his share
He won’t like it, I don’t really care
I got the better hand so I’m gonna steal his share
The deck is stacked, This game ain’t fair
I got the better hand so I’m gonna steal his share
He won’t like it, I don’t really care
I got the better hand so I’m gonna steal his share

Never Get It Back
04:00
|

If battle comes and you foresaw it
Close the ranks and crack the whips
Whatever people say ignore it
Lose the navy save the ships
Save the flag above all others
Save the Colonel, lose the Corps
Save your face and lose your brothers
Win the Battle Lose the war
When you sell your soul
To get yourself off of the rack
Don’t you know once it’s been sold
No you’ll never get it back
And if you face defeat withdraw it
Crack the whip and close the ranks
Preponderate and then restore it
Lose the army, save the tanks
Save the flag above all others
Save the Colonel, lose the Corps
Save your face and lose your brothers
Win the Battle Lose the war
When you sell your soul
To get yourself off of the rack
Don’t you know once it’s been sold
No you’ll never get it back
No you’ll never get it back
No you’ll never get it back
No you’ll never get it back
If battle comes and you foresaw it
Close the ranks and crack the whips
Whatever people say ignore it
Lose the navy save the ships
Save the flag above all others
Save the Colonel, lose the Corps
Save your face and lose your brothers
Win the Battle Lose the war
Win the battle lose the war
Win the battle lose the war
Test your might but don’t lose sight of all the things you’re fighting for
Win the battle lose the war
Win the battle lose the war
Test your might but don’t lose sight of all the things you’re fighting for
When you sell your soul
To get yourself off of the rack
Don’t you know once it’s been sold
No you’ll never get it back
When you sell your soul
To get yourself off of the rack
Don’t you know once it’s been sold
No you’ll never get it back

Ever The Optimist
05:11
|
|||
He’ll ever be the optimist
You can try to shoot him down
I’ve seen him suffer allsorts
But I’ve never seen him frown
You can tell him that he’s ignorant
You can tell him what you think
You can tell him that you hate his ways
He doesn’t even blink
Chorus
Nothing seems to phase him
He takes on all the flak
It doesn’t even graze him
He always bounces back
It’s business as usual
He takes it in his stride
He let’s you punch his iron jaw
With a smile a mile wide
If things are going badly
He can always raise a smile
A hand upon the shoulder
That guides you for a while
And the glass you say is half empty
To him well it’s half full
He’s always Mr Positive
He doesn’t doubt at all
Nothing seems to phase him
He takes on all the flak
It doesn’t even graze him
He always bounces back
It’s business as usual
He takes it in his stride
He let’s you punch his iron jaw
With a smile a mile wide
Ever the Optimist
And he’ll be ever the Optimist
And he’ll be so happy to exist
And he’ll be ever the Optimist
Things may be bad today
Tomorrow’s looking fine
He thinks thinking in the negative is just a waste of time
Nothing seems to phase him
He takes on all the flak
It doesn’t even graze him
He always bounces back
It’s business as usual
He takes it in his stride
He let’s you punch his iron jaw
With a smile a mile wide
And he’ll be ever the Optimist
And he’ll be ever the Optimist
And he’ll be so happy to exist
And he’ll be ever the Optimist

Leader
04:48
|

I need you like I need a hole in the head
You cloud my mind like a disease
The longest winter that I’ve ever had
It’s brought me down to my knees
I’m battered and beaten
I’m begging you please
Come on now release me
I’m begging you please
Leader Come on Take me down
Leader Come on Save me now
I need ya to come on save me now
Leader come on Take me down
I’m battered and beaten I’m broken I bleed
I’m wasting
My pulse is racing indeed
I worshipped you until I found about your lies
And the one thing that you clamoured for you soon learn to despise
It’s pointless to appeal
They won’t listen to your pleas
And punish you for failing to adhere to their decrees
Leader Come on Take me down
Leader Come on Save me now
I need ya to come on save me now
Leader come on Take me down
They steal away your freedom and leave your hopes in strands
And never face the music for the blood that’s on their hands
They work you til you’re broken and when you’re past your prime
They toss you to the wolves without a thank you for your time
Leader Come on Take me down
Leader Come on Save me now
I need ya to come on save me now
Leader come on Take me down

That Girl
03:10
|
|||
It’s so easy to be addicted, I was quite surprised to find
The type of girl that I hadn’t predicted, had forced her way into my mind
That Girl
She’s not afraid to speak her mind and never take it back
She don’t sit on the fence, destroys your confidence with her harsh scathing attack
No matter how much I weigh it up
I just can’t seem to make my mind up
She’s abusive and intrusive
She doesn’t care that the way she treats me isn’t fair
She’s vindictive, but it’s addictive
And it’s worth it for the way that everybody stops to stare
That Girl That Girl That Girl That Girl
She’s pretty and oh so witty
She always has her laughs at my expense
Don’t let it bother me, at least I try but see
Her vicious words they pierce through my defence
No matter how much I weigh it up
I just can’t seem to make my mind up
She’s abusive and intrusive
She doesn’t care that the way she treats me isn’t fair
She’s Vindictive, but it’s addictive
And it’s worth it for the way that everybody stops to stare
That Girl That Girl That Girl That Girl
That Girl That Girl That Girl That Girl
No matter how much I weigh it up
I just can’t seem to make my mind up
She’s abusive and intrusive
She doesn’t care that the way she treats me isn’t fair
She’s vindictive, but it’s addictive
And it’s worth it for the way that everybody stops to stare
Manipulates me, tells me she hates me
She doesn’t care that the way she treats me isn’t fair
She wants to kill me, but that’s what thrills me
And it’s so worth it for the way that everybody stops to stare

Boilermaker

Breakout another boilermaker
One more, I’ll be ready for the undertaker
My head is spinning, feet can’t touch the floor
Time piece on the bar room wall is saying it’s half past four
Chorus
Eyes grow heavy my sight grows dim
I hear the call of my lonely bed again
Sun creeps through my window and peeps through the curtain
Where do I go in life? It all seems so uncertain
Eyes grow heavy my sight grows dim
I hear the call of my lonely bed again
Eyes grow heavy my sight grows dim
I hear the call of my lonely bed again

Stay Go
04:01
|

I don’t want you
But I need you by my side
I don’t want you
But you’re eating me alive
I think I’m leaving
Must be on my way
It’s time to go now
Must be on my way
All these years now
We’ve been tearing us apart
Put things together
instead of tearing them apart
I think I’m leaving
Must be on my way
It’s time to go now
Or maybe I should stay
I start breathing
Things just start to clear
Looking back now
Back on all those years
It’s time I faced my fears

The Man Who Lost It All
05:07
|
|||
Another one that passed you by
So alone again you lie
You don’t talk they don’t read minds
And you’re too bind to see the signs
All the things you wanna say
But lock away inside your head
Now’s not the time to shy away
They’ll find someone else instead
It’s not too hard to hide away
They won’t look to hard to find
You’re self-confined for another day
In the prison of your mind
And now you reach out for your friends
But no ones there to hear your call
It’s far too late to make amends
For the man who lost it all
Don’t sit in silence anymore
Let your life just pass you by
Get your foot inside the door
While you’ve got the time to try
You’re in and no one understands
While they’re all out there having fun
Take your life in your own hands
You must believe you are the one
It’s not too hard to hide away
They won’t look to hard to find
You’re self-confined for another day
In the prison of your mind
And now you reach out for your friends
But no one’s there to hear your call
It’s far too late to make amends
For the man who lost it all
For The man who lost it all
The man who watched it all slip away
Now he only thinks of yesterday…

I see the city lights that shine
I see the stars at night at my place and that’s fine
In the city they’re still there I know
They don’t show their faces hidden by the orange glow
Over the hills and through the fields
Sun shines down and lifts my soul at the place that I call home
No more worries no more fears
Time goes by but days take years
At the place that I call home
Another day the ‘daily grind’
Worst publication of all time
Just working overtime and time again
I need a lift me up to heal my soul and fill my cup
Over the hills and through the fields
Sun shines down and lifts my soul at the place that I call home
No more worries no more fears
Time goes by but days take years
At the place that I call home
I know if I get lost and can’t find my own way
I’ll head to where the skies are clear and look across the bay at home
I see the city lights that shine
I see the stars at night at my place and they’re fine
Over the hills and through the fields
Sun shines down and lifts my soul at the place that I call home
No more worries no more fears
Time goes by but days take years
At the place that I call home
At the place that I call home
At the place that I call home
At the place that I call home…

Float Away
03:32
|

I would float so high
Forgetting about things that I’ve never done
I would touch the sky
Look back to see just how far that I’ve come
How much has changed since my journey begun
I can’t wait to see their faces as If float on by
Looking down on all the places I know, but from birds eye
To escape from this world’s lies the one thing that I’ve found
Close your eyes take to the skies leave your baggage on the ground
I would float so high
Forgetting about things that I’ve never done
I would touch the sky
Look back to see just how far that I’ve come
How much has changed since my journey begun
I’m so high can see for miles, can see how far I’ve come
High as clouds but I won’t get my wings burned by the sun
I know that it won’t be long ‘til I come crashing down
But I’ll make my final descent with a smile not a frown
I would float so high
Forgetting about things that I’ve never done
I would touch the sky
Look back to see just how far that I’ve come
How much has changed since my journey begun
