1. TRASH

Maybe, maybe it's the clothes we wear
The tasteless bracelets and the dye in our hair
Maybe it's our kookiness
Or maybe, maybe it's our nowhere towns
Our nothing places and our cellophane sounds
Maybe it's our looseness

But we're trash, you and me
We're the litter on the breeze
We're the lovers on the streets
Just trash, me and you
It's in everything we do
It's in everything we do

Maybe, maybe it's the things we say
The words we've heard and the music we play
Maybe it's our cheapness,
Or maybe, maybe it's the times we've had
The lazy days and the crazes and the fads
Maybe it's our sweetness

But we're trash, you and me
We're the litter on the breeze
We're the lovers on the street
Just trash, me and you
It's in everything we do
It's in everything we do


2. FILMSTAR

Filmstar, propping up the bar, driving in a car, it looks so easy
Filmstar, propping up the bar, driving in a car tonight
Filmstar, giving it class, living it fast, it looks so easy
Filmstar, giving it class, living it fast tonight

What to believe in, it's impossible to say
What to believe in when they change your name
Wash your brain, play the game again, yeah, yeah, yeah

Filmstar, elegance, a terylene shirt, it looks so easy
Filmstar, an elegant sir in a terylene shirt tonight
Filmstar, propping up the bar, driving in a car, it looks so easy
Filmstar, propping up the bar, driving in a car tonight

What to believe in, it's impossible to say
What to believe in when they change your name
Wash your brain, play the game again


3. LAZY

Here they come with their make-up on
As lovely as the clouds, come and see them
Boys and girls and their mums and their words
And their romances and jobs and their sons
Barking mad kids, lonely dads
Who drug it up to give it some meaning
From the raves to the council estates
They're reminding us there's things to be done

But you and me, all we want to be is lazy
You and me, so lazy

Here they come gone 7am
Getting satellite and Sky getting cable
Bills and Bens and their mums and their friends
Who just really, really want to be loved
Uncle Teds and their legendary vests
Helping out around the disabled
From the flats and the maisonette
They're reminding us there's things to be done

But you and me, all we want to be is lazy
You and me, so lazy
It's you and me, it's you and me, you and me


4. BY THE SEA

She can walk out anytime, anytime she wants to walk out, that's fine
She can walk out anytime, anytime she feels that life has passed her by
And when I start my new life I won't touch the ground
I'm gonna try hard this time not to touch the ground

He can walk out anytime, anytime he wants to walk out, that's fine
He can walk out anytime, across the sand, into the sea, into the brine
And when I start my new life I won't touch the ground
I1m gonna try hard this time not to touch the ground

So we sold the car and quit the job
And shook some hands and wiped the make-up right off
And we said our good-byes to the bank
left Seven Sisters for a room in a seaside shack
And when I start my new life I won't touch the ground
I'm gonna try hard this time not to touch the ground

It's by the sea we'll breed
Into the sea we'll bleed


5. SHE

She, walking like a killer
She, another night another pillow

Nowhere places, nowhere faces, no one wants to see
No education, it's the horse of the nation
She is bad, she is bored, she is bony, she is

She, shaking up the karma
She, injecting marijuana

Nowhere places, nowhere faces, no one wants to see
No education it's the horse of the nation
She is bad, she is bored, she is bony, she is
She

Nowhere faces, nowhere places, no one wants to be
No stimulation in this privatisation,
She is bad, she is bored, she is bony, she is she


6. BEAUTYFUL ONES

High on diesel and gasoline, psycho for drum machine
Shaking their bits to the hits
Drag acts, drug acts, suicides, in your dad's suits you hide
Staining his name again
Cracked up, stacked up, 22, psycho for sex and glue
Lost it to Bostik, yeah
Shaved heads, rave heads, on the pill, got too much time to kill
Get into bands and gangs

Oh, here they come, the beautiful ones, the beautiful ones

Loved up, Doved up, hung around, stoned in a lonely town
Shaking their meat to the beat
High on diesel and gasoline, psycho for drum machine
Shaking their bits to the hits

Oh, here they come, the beautiful ones, the beautiful ones

You don't think about it
You don't do without it
Because you're beautiful
And if your baby's going crazy
That's how you made me


7. STARCRAZY

She's a star, starcrazy, electric-shock-bog-brush-hair
Flat on her back in the 80's, in the 90's going nowhere
Star, starcrazy, got a kicking transistor inside
A heavy metal stutter that brains me
And an electric love in her eyes

Oh, she don't want education
She got nothing to say
She got no imagination so they say
Why does she feel this way

‘Cause she's a star, starcrazy, getting stupid on the streets tonight
And shaking like a mechanical thing
With an electric love in her eyes

Oh, she don't want education
She got nothing to say
She got no imagination so they say
So why does she feel this way


8. PICNIC BY THE MOTORWAY

I'm so sorry to hear about the news,
Don't you worry,
I'll buy us a bottle and we'll drink in the petrol fumes,
I'm so sorry to hear about your world,
Don't you worry,
There's a gap in the fence down by the nature reserve,

Hey, such a lovely day, such a lovely day,
Such fun, looking at the lovers in a lay-by with my little one.

I'm so sorry to hear the news today,
Don't you worry,
There's been a speeding disaster so we'll go to the motorway,
I'm so sorry to hear about the scene,
Don't you worry,
Just put on your trainers and get out of it with me,

Hey, such a lovely day, such a lovely day,
Such fun, looking at the lovers in a lay-by with my little one.
Hey, such a lovely day, such a lovely day,
Such fun, looking at the lorries in the litter with my lovely one,

We could go dancing, we could go walking,
We could go shopping, we could keep talking,
We could go drinking, we could sit thinking,
We could go speeding, or we could go dreaming


9. THE CHEMISTRY BETWEEN US

And maybe we're just kids who've grown, and maybe not,
And maybe when we're on our own, we don't have much,
But oh, we are young and not tired of it,
Oh, we are young and easily lead,
Oh, with all the kids getting out of their heads.

Oh, Class A, Class B, is that the only chemistry
Oh, Class A, Class B, is that the only chemistry between us

And maybe were just street trash, and maybe not,
And maybe we're just capital flash in a stupid love,
But oh, we are young and not tired of it,
Oh we are young and easily lead,
Oh, by all the kids getting out of our heads.

Oh, Class A, Class B, is that the only chemistry
Oh, Class A, Class B, is that the only chemistry between us


10. SATURDAY NIGHT

Today she's been working, she's been talking, she's been smoking,
But it'll be alright,
‘Cause tonight we'll go dancing, we'll go laughing, we'll get car sick,
And it'll be okay like everyone says, it'll be alright and ever so nice,
We're going out tonight, out and about tonight.

Oh, whatever makes her happy on a Saturday night,
Oh whatever makes her happy, whatever makes it alright.

Today she's been sat there, sat there in a black chair, Office furniture,
But it'll be alright,
Cause tonight we'll go drinking we'll do silly things,
And never let the winter in,
And it'll be okay like everyone says, it'll be alright and ever so nice,
We're going out tonight, out and about tonight.

Oh, whatever makes her happy on a Saturday night,
Oh, whatever makes her happy, whatever makes it alright.

We'll go to peepshows and freak shows,
We'll go to discos, casinos,
We'll go where people go and let go

Oh whatever makes her happy on a Saturday night
