Oliver's Army
Don't start me talking I could talk all night
My mind goes sleepwalking while I'm putting the world to right
Called careers information have you got yourself an occupation?
Oliver's army is here to stay Oliver's army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else but here today
There was a checkpoint Charlie he didn't crack a smile
But it's no laughing party when you've been on the murder mile
Only takes one itchy trigger one more widow, one less white nigger
Oliver's army is here to stay Oliver's army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else but here today
Hong Kong is up for grabs London is full of Arabs
We could be in Palestine overrun by a Chinese line
With the boys from the Mersey and the Thames and the Tyne
But there's no danger it's a professional career
Though it could be arranged with just a word in Mr. Churchill's ear
If you're out of luck or out of work we could send you to Johannesburg
Oliver's army is here to stay Oliver's army are on their way
And I would rather be anywhere else but here today
Watching The Detectives
Nice girls not one with a defect cellophane shrink-wrapped, so correct
Red dogs under illegal legs she looks so good that he gets down and begs
She is watching the detectives he's so cute
She is watching the detectives when they shoot
They beat him up until the teardrops start
But he can't be wounded because he's got no heart
Long shot of that jumping sign visible shivers running down my spine
Cut the baby taking off her clothes close-up of the sign that says,"We never close"
You snatch a tune, you match a cigarette she pulls the eyes out with a face like a magnet
I don't know how much more of this I can take she's filing her nails while they're dragging the lake
She is watching the detectives he's so cute
She is watching the detectives when they shoot
They beat him up until the teardrops start
But he can't be wounded because he's got no heart
You think you're alone until you realize you're in it
Now fear is here to stay love is here for a visit
They call it instant justice when it's past the legal limit
Someone's scratching at the window. I wonder who is it?
The detectives come to check if you belong to the parents
Who are ready to hear the worst about their daughter's disappearance
Though it nearly took a miracle to get you to stay it only took my little fingers to blow you away
Just like watching the detectives don't get cute
It's just like watching the detectives I get so angry when the teardrops start
But he can't be wounded because he's got no heart
Watching the detectives it's just like watching the detectives
Watching the detectives
(I Don't Want To Go To) Chelsea
Photographs of fancy tricks to get your kicks at sixty-six
He thinks of all the lips that he licks and all the girls that he's going to fix
She gave a little flirt, gave herself a little cuddle
But there's no place here for the mini-skirt waddle
Capital punishment, she's last year's model
They call her Natasha when she looks like Elsie I don't want to go to Chelsea
It does not move me even though I've seen the movie
I don't want to check your pulse I don't want nobody else I don't want to go to Chelsea
Everybody's got new orders be a nice girl and kiss the warders
Now the teacher is away all the kids begin to play
Men come screaming, dressed in white coats shake you very gently by the throat
One's named Gus, one's named Alfie I don't want to go to Chelsea
It does not move me even though I've seen the movie
I don't want to check your pulse I don't want nobody else I don't want to go to Chelsea
Photographs of fancy tricks to get your kicks at sixty-six
He thinks of all the lips that he licks and all the girls that he's going to fix
She gave a little flirt, gave herself a little cuddle
But there's no place here for the mini-skirt waddle
Capital punishment, she's last year's model
They call her Natasha when she looks like Elsie I don't want to go to Chelsea
It does not move me even though I've seen the movie
I don't want to check your pulse I don't want nobody else I don't want to go to Chelsea
Accidents Will Happen
I just don't know where to begin though he says he'll wait forever
It's now or never but she keeps him hanging on the silly champion
She says she can't go home without a chaperone
Accidents will happen we only hit and run
He used to be your victim now you're not the only one
Accidents will happen we only hit and run
I don't want to hear it because I know what I've done
There's so many fish in the sea that only rise up in the sweat and smoke like mercury
But they keep you hanging on they say you're so young
Your mind is made up but your mouth is undone
Accidents will happen we only hit and run
He used to be your victim now you're not the only one
Accidents will happen we only hit and run
I don't want to hear it because I know what I've done
And it's the damage that we do and never know
It's the words that we don't say that scare me so
There's so many people to see so many people you can check up on
And add to your collection but they keep you hanging on
Until you're well hung your mouth is made up but your mind is undone
Accidents will happen we only hit and run
He used to be your victim now you're not the only one
Accidents will happen we only hit and run
I don't want to hear it because I know what I've done
(The Angels Wanna Wear My) Red Shoes
I used to be disgusted and now I try to be amused.
But since their wings have got rusted you know, the angels wanna wear my red shoes.
But when they told me about their side of the bargain, that's when I knew that I could not refuse.
And I won't get any older, now the angels wanna wear my red shoes.
I was watching while you're dancing away our love got fractured in the echo and sway.
How come everybody wants to be your friend you know that it still hurts me just to say it.
I know that she's disgusted because she's feeling so abused
She gets tired of the lust but it's so hard to refuse.
How can you say that I'm too old when the angels have stolen my red shoes.
I said I'm so happy, I could die she said drop dead then left with another guy.
That's what you get if you go chasing after vengeance.
Ever since you got me punctured this has been my sentence.
I used to be disgusted and now I try to be amused.
But since their wings have got rusted you know, the angels wanna wear my red shoes.
Red shoes, the angels wanna wear my red shoes
Pump It Up
I've been on tenterhooks ending in dirty looks, listening to the muzak thinking about this and that.
She said that's that. I don't wanna chitter-chat turn it down a little bit or turn it down flat.
Pump it up when you don't really need it pump it up until you can feel it.
Down in the pleasure centre hell bent or heaven sent,
Listen to the propaganda,listen to the latest slander.
There's nothing underhand that she wouldn't understand.
Pump it up until you can feel it pump it up when you don't really need it.
She's been a bad girl she's like a chemical.
Though you try to stop it she's like a narcotic.
You wanna torture her you wanna talk to her.
All the things you bought for her putting up your temperature.
Pump it up until you can feel it pump it up when you don't really need it.
Out in the fashion show down in the bargain bin,
you put your passion out under the pressure pin.
Fall into submission hit-and-run transmission.
No use wishing now for any other sin.
Pump it up until you can feel it pump it up when you don't really need it.
