No Sign Of Improvement Lyrics
Everything is getting better, everything is going smoother But everything's the same! Tell me why is doesn't change, tell me why it stays the same Why does is stay the same? The more things change, the more they stay the same.


Were gonna drink enough tonight to drown the average army

By new years day the next door neighbour will be goin barmy (yep,

Thats how its spelled)

The milkman arrives at midday with his usual wisecrack

Who knows a girl with wednesday legs so whens they gonna snap?

Chorus:

Why does everybody have to be so hale and hearty

Cant they see were tryin to have a party party party party



The last thing I remember I was talkin to some fellas

The Bridge Builders Lyrics
you asked me a question i think i was somewhere else you said "you're not listening" you said i never do but i try, i try so hard but it's so hard in this big world it's so big and so shiny and <

So shift yourself and shake your bod

You got bullet proof insurance from fire, flood and act of god

You got to learn from your mistakes

When you got a face like last weeks cornflakes



Two boys are upstairs in your bed

Three girls are downstairs cryin

The alka seltzer in the glass is roarin like a lion

You think youve aged 10 years tonight and still never been kissed

So you overdose on aftershave and try to slash your wrist



Chorus and fade
