Please Don't Die - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

Please Don't Die - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

Let me lie down
Please don't wake me
Nothings sacred
And no-one save me

In my black eye
I can feel it
Moving
Closer
Cant you hear it

The only gift you gave to me
Was self-fulfilling prophecy
I need to change the sounds
That shape my life

And if you die before i leave
What on earth becomes of me
Look around theres no-one here
To love me and hold me

Take me
Dancing
I love music
Keep on
Singing
We wont loose it

Picture
Me here
Missing no-one
If your hearts run free
Why can't we go on

Go on to till they kick us out
We've everything to talk about
I could bring a song into your life

If you should die before i leave
What on earth becomes of me
Look around theres no-one here
To love me and hold me

Maybe I've been away too long
I know I'me not always right but is that wrong
They say there's nothing I can do
But talk to strangers and wait for you

If you should die before i leave
What on earth becomes of me
Look around theres no-one here
To love me and hold me

And if you die before i leave
What on earth becomes of me
Look around theres no-one here
To love me and hold me
Oooh ooh ooh!

Sin Sin Sin - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

Sin Sin Sin - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

Don't let your eyes tell the brain
You should feel ashamed
Everyone needs it baby
And I feel the same
Didn't quite catch your name
Hush, hush, hush
Don't say a thing
Let's see what the night will bring
It might be everything

Oh it hurts
When you're too blind to see
Please don't read my mind
I tell the truth to me

Sin sin sin
Look where we've been
And where we are tonight
Hate the sin not the sinner
I'm just after a glimmer
Of love and life
Deep inside

Hush hush hush
To speak is a sin
And neither of us
Need rescuing
Just relax
It's what Jesus would do
We're made in his image baby
Let's ride this thing through

Oh it hurts
When you're to blind to see
What about us
Well it was just for me

Sin sin sin
Look where we've been
And where we are tonight
Hate the sin not the sinner
I'm just after a glimmer
Of love and life
Deep inside

I won't sing of amore
It don't sound sincere
Love is a clich�
But it fits not here
I'll disappear

Sin sin sin
Look where we've been
And where we are tonight
Hate the sin not the sinner
I'm just after a glimmer
Of love and life
Deep inside
Deep inside

It's love
Clean sex joy
I love you
You love my hate
And it feels inside
Feels inside
Feels inside

Random Acts Of Kindness - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

Random Acts Of Kindness - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

For those about to die
We salute you
For those of about to cry
We love you
For those of us who live in fear
Of Happy Christmas and new year
I raise a toast to you

And if it hurts
To be so blind
Why don't you try
Being kind

They've decided to become
A little more Pro-active
Creep upon you while you sleep
And make you less attractive

Born without a spine
Why don't you try
Being kind

For those out drinking at their mother's way
You'll find a way to soldier on
For those whose love evaporates
I pray you'll find where you belong

Oh, the words I have repressed
Are coming out today I guess
It is justice not respect I'm after
And that just leaves contempt
For you all
Oh oh oh
Yeah yeah
Yeah

I am just a simple man
With simple expectations
Deep regrets
They're seldom met
God speed my generation

And with Crowley on my mind
I should try being kind

For those about to die
We salute you
For those of about to cry
We love you
For those about to die
We salute you
For those of about to cry
We love you

The Trouble With Me - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

The Trouble With Me - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

You see the trouble with me
I've got a head full of fuck
I'm a basket case
I don't think I can love, love, love

You see the trouble with you
Is you're in love with me
What a strange thing to do
What a brave place to be

So we dive
On sunset strip
A heart so deep
I drown in it
And as it breaks
I swim through cracks
And leave with words
I can't take back

You see the trouble with me
Monkey see monkey do
There's no u in tomorrow
A better offer came through
You see the trouble with you
There's no trouble with you
So when you say that you love me
That stops me loving you

So she stays
On sunset strip
A heart so full
I drown in it
She's waiting for
My words to break
The one true love
I couldn't make

So she walks
That golden mile
Men will try
And catch her eye
We both know
What could have been
On sunset strip
Our broken dream

A Place To Crash - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

A Place To Crash - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

I - I - I
I'm on a mission
To abuse my position
Abuse it with you

Love, I'm a cynical bitch
Gonna scratch that itch
With a bitch like you

Modern thinking's made me miserable
Everything is unforgivable
If not for you
I wouldn't come at all

Find a place to crash
(Boom boom, boom boom labida)
Move your boney ass
(Boom boom, boom boom labida)

Love me like I'm cash
(Boom, boom, boom, boom, labida)
You can feel the class
(Boom, boom, boom, boom, labida)

[Guitar]

If there's a freak in here
Looking for someone like me
I fit that description
Perfectly

Boom, boom, boom
I bet they'll resent you
They would if they met you
Met you with me

Every move you make is poetry
They all fake what you do naturally
If not for you
I wouldn't come at all

Find a place to crash
(Boom, boom, boom, boom, labida)
Move your boney ass
(Boom, boom, boom, boom, labida)

Love me like I'm cash
(Boom, boom, boom, boom, labida)
You can see the clash
(Boom, boom, boom, boom, labida)

Kiss me with your mouth
Teach me with your brain
All right

Oh, yeah, oh, yeah

They say I say
When I say nothing at all
It leaves a taste in my stomach
And it's no taste at all

I can't sing, I can't dance
But it don't stop me at all
It's a ball when I call, if I call you at all

Love is the reason but it won't pay my rent
Only palone fill your dish in the dent
I won't be happy 'till the moneys been spent
I forget to forget, oh, fuck it, oh, fuck it

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

King Of Bloke And Bird - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

King Of Bloke And Bird - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

Speak so loud
I cant hear what you say
Except for the occasional word
Sulphates a sentimental side
It bothers me
No longer king of bloke and bird

All of my life
Searching hard
Down in the wires
Of love

Summon me now
Summon my life away
Summon me on to another day
A hand through the clouds
Keeps knocking me down
It's no less than I deserve
They built museums
I don't visit them
I've made enough trouble of my own

Into the night
Searching hard
Look for the light
Of love

Summon me now
Summon my life away
Summon me on to another day
Summon the evening winter waves
Are falling down again
I sing from the chaos in my heart
My heart

Then comes the evening
That makes life worth living
Shoving the shoes out in the light
She walks in
I can hear her

Viva Life On Mars - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

I just wanna be [x4]

I lost all faith in what I know
The future doesn't need me
So I kick a bo agen a wo and head it till it don't hurt no more.
Use my cuts and lacerations, feed myself a new sensation woah woah

Take a ride on your high horse
If the horse is blind, use the force
The falcon flies in two straight lines
Red five standing by
It's not a moon it's a space station
It feels good the good vibration woah woah

I know that you know some lovely people.
Send them all an invitation, yer party to a segregation woah. Woah

Viva life on mars I'm calling
Sending my frequency to the galaxy so you can see people down here

They don't want us to discuss the picture in the caves of us.
A nosebleed and a bag of coal then they put you in a hole.
We're knee deep in information
And they can't stop this conversation. Woah woah

I know that you know some lovely people.
Send them all an invitation, party to a segregation woah. Woah

Viva life on mars I'm calling
Sending my frequency to the galaxy so you can see we're all down here

I just wanna be [x8]

Love is natural love is good
Not everybody does it but everybody should.
With them and us we've made a mess,
till they decide which god is best.
Free yourself from liberation from lake Geneva to the freeland station woah woah

I know that you know some lovely people.
Send them all an invitation, yer party to a segregation woah woah.

Viva life on mars I'm calling
Sending my frequency to the galaxy so you can see people down here

Viva life on mars I'm calling [x4]

Lovelight - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

[Lewis Taylor cover]

What am I supposed to do
To keep from going under

I've been holding back
Is it any wonder?
Since you walked right into my life and interrupted the flow

[CHORUS]

Turnin' your lovelight down again
Why don't you let me be
You don't know what you're doin'

And turnin' your lovelight down again

Did it again, did it again

Bongo Bong And Je Ne T'aime Plus - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

Bongo Bong And Je Ne T'aime Plus - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

[Manu Chao cover]

Mama was queen of the mambo
Papa was king of the Congo
Deep down in the jungle
I started bangin' my first bongo

Every monkey'd like to be
In my place instead of me
Cause I'm the king of bongo, baby
I'm the king of bongo bong

I went to the big town
Where there is a lot of sound
From the jungle to the city
Looking for a bigger crown

So I play my boogie
For the people of big city
But they don't go crazy
When I'm bangin' in my boogie
I'm the "king of the bongo, king of the bongo bong"
Hear me when I come
King of the bongo, king of the bongo bong

They say that I'm a clown
Making too much dirty sound
They say there is no place for little monkey in this town
Nobody'd like to be in my place instead of me
Cause nobody go crazy when I'm bangin' on my boogie
I'm the king of the bongo, king of the bongo bong

Hear me when I come
King of the bongo, king of the bongo bong
Bangin' on my bongo all that swing belongs to me
I'm so happy there's nobody in my place instead of me
I'm a king without a crown hanging loose in a big town
But I'm the king of bongo baby I'm the king of bongo bong
King of the bongo, king of the bongo bong
Hear me when I come, baby, king of the bongo, king of the bongo bong...

Je ne t'aime plus mon amour
Je ne t'aime plus tout le jour
Je ne t'aime plus mon amour
Je ne t'aime plus tout le jour

Je ne t'aime plus mon amour
Je ne t'aime plus tout le jour
Je ne t'aime plus mon amour
Je ne t'aime plus tout le jour

She's Modonna - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

Oh, Madonna, Madonna

I don't miss you
Just who
You used to be
And you don't ring true
So please
Stop calling me
Your "I love you"'s
Are ten a penny
You're dropping clues
Like you've got any
You got to choose
There's been so many ohhhh

I love you baby
But face it she's Madonna
No man on earth
Could say that he don't want her
This look of love
Says I'm leaving
You're frozen now
I've done the freezing
I'm walking out
Madonna's calling me

She's got to be
Obscene to be believed
That's her routine
Not what she means to me
I found myself
By circumstance
Across a room
Where people dance
And quite by chance
She' danced right next me

I love you baby
But face it she's Madonna
No man on earth
Would say that he don't want her
It's me not you
I've got to move on
You're younger too
But she's got her groove on
I'm sorry love
Madonna's calling me

Oh, Madonna, Madonna

I want to tell you a secret

We're having drinks
With Kate and Stella
Gwyneth's here
She's brought her fella
But all I wanna do
Is take Madonna home

I love you baby
But face it she's Madonna
No man on earth
Would say that he don't want her
It's me not you
I've got to move on
You're younger too
But she's got her groove on
I'm sorry love
Madonna's calling me

[Chorus]
You alright star
No star
You alright star

About a bad back that I ain't got
He tried to sell me faith healing
But I think not

Funky fill the form out
So I can drop em'
I've got all these demons
And I can't stop em'
To tell you the truth Doc

Robert Williams take one adoral with water in the morning
As if I'm goin' to take one tablet I'm Keith Moon
Dick head

[Chorus 2]
He said this one's to take you up
Wow how

When I take um I don't feel sound

And I'm a little bit down from too much tea

Well I've got 5 or 6 if I'm at a loss

And I now that some of you are going to be really really cross
The drug's stop working so prescription pills are boss
The glory days are gone and we've all stopped havin' it
No raves no more just bedside cabinet
Sleepers are great but don't start dabbing it
The world carries on spinning we're mad in it
Take that, take that

[Chorus 3]

Never Touch That Switch - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

Never Touch That Switch - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

Size of which is paradoxic the only way you're gonna stop this
In the vessel there's a switch in the middle
You really shouldn't fiddle cause its toxic
Listen up 'cos it's a red light
And the pressure's blowing up tight
There's a skism in the time mechanism
There's a skism in the time mekanism
Never touch that switch
Even if you want to
You don't know what it can do.
Never touch that switch, even if you want to.
You don't know what it can do.

See the futures in the distance
I know I'm facing some resistance
Getting back within the blink of a bubble
Time machine never gives us any trouble.
There's a riot down in Shelton
Only minutes after Brixton but this city never made it on the telly
Or the rumble of the nations underbelly

Never touch that switch, even if you want to.
You don't know what it can do.
Never touch that switch, even if you want to.
You don't know what it can do.

You know you're heading for a meltdown, and you're living in a tin town
Thinking that you're gonna be somebody, living in the land of milk and honey
Listen up 'cos it's a red light, and the futures blowing up tight
There's a skism in the time mechanism, there's a skism in the time mekanism

Never touch that switch, even if you want to. You don't know what it can do.
Never touch that switch, even if you want to. You don't know what it can do.
Never touch that switch, even if you want to. You don't know what it can do.
Never touch that switch, even if you want to. You don't know what it can do.

Louise - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

Louise - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

[Human League cover]

When he saw her getting of the bus
It seemed to wipe away the years
Her face was older, just a little rough
But her eyes were still so clear
He drank his coffee and he hurried out
Across before she walked away
Then he approached her like a little child
Too scared for what he had to say

"Hello, Louise,
Remember me?
Now should we part
Or stay awhile?
As if we were still lovers"

She took a moment just to recognise the man she'd known so well before
And as he started to apologise
Lose any bitterness she bore
She gently put her finger on his lips
To let him know she understood
And with her suitcase standing on the floor
Embraced him like a lover would

He told louise
"You look so good
It's just you see
You make me feel
As if we were still lovers"

It's not always true that time heals all wounds
There are wounds that you don't wanna heal
The memories of something really good
Something truly real, that you never found again

And though they talked for just a little time
Before she said she had to go
He saw the meeting as a tiny sign
That told him all he had to know

And so Louise
Waved from the bus
And as she left
She gave that smile
As if they were still lovers

We're The Pet Shop Boys - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

We're The Pet Shop Boys - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

[My Robot Friend cover]

Suburbia's a slipstream
To a memory
Of a time when you were
Close to me
I pretend
I'm there again
I close my eyes and see you
Better than before
Then I feel you touch me
And it's 1984
I know what you will say
Before you start
In my heart

We're the Pet Shop Boys
We're the Pet Shop Boys

Every thought's a fashion
Or a crime
And every boy is just
A waste of time
But I pretend
It was different then
Maybe it's a habit
Maybe it's a sin
But I find out
When I try it on
It crawls beneath my skin
Once it gets inside me
It won't go
Now I know

We're the Pet Shop Boys
We're the Pet Shop Boys

Rent
Shopping
Being boring
It's alright
It's a sin
I'm not scared
In denial
I want a dog
I want a lover
Can you forgive her?
Do I have to?
What have I? What have I?
What have I done to deserve this?

We're the Pet Shop Boys
We're the Pet Shop Boys

Burslem Normals - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

Burslem Normals - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

In your face there's nowt left
They have defaced the marks
you left upon the wall
The writing's now not there at all
Can you stand what you stood for
Are you more normal than before

Goodbye to the Normals
Goodbye to the Normals

In your place there's just chavs
The kids aren't alright
they know they're born today
Reaching out to feel the sun
At the time it seemed like fun
I was there when you got done
There for two weeks by the surf
We used to know what we were worth
Before the Normals fell to earth

Goodbye to the Normals
Goodbye to the Normals

Whatever happened to
the mere mortals crew
The fine young casuals
blew a fuse and
All the Burslem lads know
that they're all Dads
It meant so much to me,
it makes me sad

In your wake there's nowt left

Kiss Me - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

Kiss Me - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

In my young life I have received
Callers though they were Christmas Eve
I'm disappointed and I don't know why
She gave me laughter and hope
And a sock in the eye.

In my young life I know something now.
I've never tried to create a wow
Wows are few frustration more common
Now I can feel it in my soul
That's why I gave the come on.

Kiss me with your mouth
Your love is better than wine
Kiss me with your mouth
Your love is better than wine
But wine is all I have
Will your love ever be mine?

Faces fall before my feet
Like blood onto a clean white sheet
When I grow old I won't forget
To innocence my only debt

Wow I feel so fresh today
Barefoot in the snow to make love in the hay
The stars are bright in the abyss
Now I can feel you in my arms
I explode inside your kiss.

Kiss me with your mouth
Your love is better than wine
But wine is all I have
Will your love ever be mine?

Kiss me with your mouth
Your love is better than wine
Kiss me with your mouth
Your love is better than wine
But wine is all I have
Will your love ever be mine?

The 80's - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

The 80's - ROBBIE WILLIAMS

I smoked Consulates and Park Drive, drank Nookie Brown
Learned how to skive
Polo mints to hide my breath from my mum
Did a little weed cuz it felt like fun
Did a little bit of speed if my friend had some
Nicked Volkswagen badges I'm a Beastie Boys son
Me so horny, me so young and I still get my washing done
Auntie Joan died of cancer God didn't have an answer
Rhythm was a dancer
Any room for a chancer? That's me in the corner, thanks sir!
I wore astute track suits, British Nike shoes, Kangol hat like LL Cool's
Before I was 'avin it, 'avin it large
They nicked the BMX from out my garage
Knew it was Theo from off the estate cuz every time he'd see me, he'd smile like we were mates
From then on in I'd have to walk to me Nan's
And I'd dream my dreams through a sea of prams
Like a hooligan on the football stands
And I'd throw the v's to Leeds and West Ham
Then I ran, I ran so far away down Scotia Road to a taxi bay
Then I ran again cuz I couldn't pay, a Muslim didn't get his fare that day
I apologise today

Things are better when they start
That's how the 80s broke my heart

And who are you calling poof? You like Wham, man, I hate that stuff
And then my grandad died and left a hole in the family and lots of women had to nanny me
School was a laugh, they didn't have ADD, thick was the term they used for me
(over and over)
Repeatedly
(over and over)

Take my breath away take my breath away
Bidly bidly bidly bom
Pass it on the left hand side, right turn, Clive

That girl in the fourth year, got pregnant and she was raised Catholic, brilliant!
I cried, she cried, we cried, our youth died
Drank cider in the cemetery
The year above us had discovered E and I said it weren't for me
?12.50? I could rob me mum's purse and buy one up Torquay
Met a girl on Monday, drank fizzy pop on Tuesday
Fingered her on Wednesday and on Thursday and Friday and on Saturday
Dumped by Sunday

Things are better when they start
That's how the 80s broke my heart
The wonder years, I've played my part
That's how the 80s broke my heart

Like I said, I lost my virginity to a girl called Anne-Marie, well she said she fancied me
And then she said "fuck me" and I thought 'fuck me, I'm all talk and it'll be over too quickly'
And it was but I couldn't care less, I'd seen a girl's bra and made a mess on her dress, oh yes!
You're now rocking with the best, second person in my year that had seen a breast
I'm in my 30s now and I'm still impressed
Where are the Falklands mum? And what have they done?
Where do girls come from? Where do girls come from? Where do girls come from?

It's the 80s, what you looking at, ya mong?
So young, so long, so young, so long
Too short, so long
What you looking at ya mong?
Too short, so long, too short, so long
So long.
