Please Dance

Please dance if you get the chance
Ask me now I’ll take your hand
Dance in the CITY, dance in the town
dance in the village when the sun goes down.
The M6 is so slow and long Got lost along the way,
Charnock Richard, Lancaster, TEBAY.
The Kids, the car, the bags are packed,
We might get there today
To leave the work and troubles far away
I see a light shining,
Like thunder and lightning, It’s coming up over the hill
My heart starts racing With the future I’m facing
I just can’t keep my feet still
(CHORUS)
standing by the exit the band is playing loud
I feel my heart is beating to the sound I need to dance so badly But now the nerve escapes
I can’t move my feet stuck to the ground
With hands that are shaking, my confidence breaking This is how I thought it would be
They all turn away when I catch their eye
Will nobody here dance with me?
(Chorus)
I got what I expected I came to get rejected
No one here likes dancing on their own
I sense someone behind me A light touch on my shoulder
Maybe now it’s time to go home
Expect the unexpected I didn’t get rejected
You were here all along You asked me to dance,
Took hold of my hands
And then we danced to this song
(Chorus)

Oh Louise
By S Simpson
She walked through the shop
With a handful of hope
A pocket full of change
And a mind full of dope
Lank hair, pale skin and in need of my time
It’s all I can give
One second of my mind
London’s cold
But you’ll be fine
You’ll find peace on the Picadilly line tonight
Oh Louise
What a beauty you should be
You showed me to my empathy
What is you might as well be me Louise
Here I am staring back at me
A product of my history
I can’t get up off of my knees Louise
You treasure all the knowledge
That you can’t afford
A place from the crowd
When you waltz through the door
If you fall through the cracks
And you can’t find your way
You know there’s a place that won’t turn away
There’s a chair right here that waits for you
Life is lottery
Buy a ticket for the memories
I’d like to see what you can feel
Oh Louise
Your world is a mystery
You’ve become my reality
My fisher king and my drama queen
Chorus X2

POACHER
SETTING MY SNARE ON A WEB OF DECEIT
SUGESTIONS WILL CLOSE YOU DOWN
I’M THE KEEPER OF FEAR AND OF HATE OF LIES
I’M A BANDIT IN SILCON TOWN
YOU’LL NEVER KNOW WHERE I’M LURKING MY DEAR
I HUNT IN THE SHADOWS AT NIGHT
I WON’T TAKE MY EYES OFF THE PRIZE FOR THE SIZE OF THE PLUNDER WILL BRING GREAT DELIGHT
CHORUS
WAITING IN THE DARK, WHAT DO I SEE
A PAIR OF PLUMP BIRDS JUST WAITING FOR ME
I’M SO EXCITED I BREAK INTO SWEAT YOUR STUPID AND GREEDY
YOU DESERVE WHAT YOU GET
I’VE A TALENT FOR PHISHING AND DANGLING LINES AND I KEEP WHAT I FIND IN MY POCKETS
IF I STAY IN DISGUISE, I’LL COME BACK FOR YOUR EYES
I MIGHT JUST COME BACK FOR THE SOCKETS
CHORUS
HERE’S THE TWIST IN THE TALE I’M THE POACHER OF NEW
I PRAY ON THE WEAK AND INFIRM
THE WORDS THAT I WRITE WILL TAKE ALL YOU’VE GOT
JUST READ THE BELOW AND CONFIRM
DEAR MR SIMPSON
I BRING YOU GREAT NEWS
A REBATE ON OVER PAID TAX
JUST ENTER YOUR DIGITS EXPIRY AND CODE
WE’LL SEND IT RIGHT OVER RELAX

Less of you
S.Simpson
Is it you that turned your back to the sun
Is it me that’s always been running for home
Is it you that fiddles while everything burns
Will you please be my nero and I will be rome
Are you ready to help me to change
Cause it’s sending me crazy
It all stays the same
It’s day after day and it’s year after year
Cause you take me for granted
Now I’m an acquaintance you see time to time
I’ll take back the freedom that should have been mine
I can not get over this indifferent wall
I know less about you than ever before
Chorus
I’m the one that got away
You’re the one that just won’t change
Now everything stays the same
Again I feel pain and again and again and again
I need to accept that there’s no breaking through
There’s no other side
There’s no deeper you
I’ve always been hoping
For the truth to inspire
But your lies are the fuel
Now my past is on fire
I burned of the branches
And pulled up the roots
You made sure that the sapling
Would never bear fruit
For the ashes of memory
I won’t take the blame
For I am the phoenix
Who soars on these flames

Be in the now
S.Simpson
I got lost in the forest so I burned down the trees
I’m giving up on God cause there’s pain in my knees
I’m giving up on drugs and I’ll cut down on gin
You might give up on me
I’ll never give up and I’ll never give in
You know I’ll never give
Got my feet in the earth
And my eye to the sky
I’ve turned it around
Found meaning in life
Sex drugs and rock and roll
I survived in the darkest hole
I got out by being now
Gotta be in the now
Gotta be in the now
Gotta be in the now
Too many signs and distractions
Too many choices to take
Too many times have I listened to lies
And I’ve prayed for a greater escape
I guess that I wanted to be like James Dean
I’m on board for the easiest ride
I’m finding hope for the children of men
Who doubted their dreams all their lives
Got my feet in the earth
And my eye to the sky
I’ve turned it around
Found meaning in life
Sex drugs and rock and roll
I survived in the darkest hole
I got out by being now
Gotta be in the now
Gotta be in the now
Gotta be in the now
It’s always waiting watching every move
A shape in the shadow that wants me to lose
I can’t back down, can’t let it win
Found strength in the sound
I’ll never give in
I’ll never give in
I’ll never give in
