LYRICS:

Out here in the fields
I fight for my meals
I get my back into my living.

I don't need to fight
To prove I'm right
I don't need to be forgiven.
yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah

Don't cry
Don't raise your eye
It's only teenage wasteland

Sally, take my hand
We'll travel south cross land
Put out the fire
And don't look past my shoulder.

The exodus is here
The happy ones are near
Let's get together
Before we get much older.

Teenage wasteland
It's only teenage wasteland.
Teenage wasteland
Oh, yeah
Its only teenage wasteland
They're all wasted!

LYRICS:

oh i want so much more than love
don't have to twit my fingers
and maybe you could break my fall
a bet you'd never make that distance

oh i need so much more than you
but in your eyes it's getting more wonderful
if you could see the things i do
you'd know that its all for me

i'd like to reach some distant shore,
i won't be looking over my shoulder
then maybe i'd have something more,
something more, than getting older

Oh I need so much more than you,
but in your eyes it’s getting more wonderful
If you could see the things I do,
you'd know it's only 1,2,3,4,5,6

and if things changed so much for me,
i've even got the same old cloths on,
and lies just doesn't come naturaly
but i guess you already know that

oh i need so much more than you,
but in your eyes it’s getting more wonderful
if you could see the things i do,
you'd know that it's all for me

little bird, are you happy in your cage
little bird, are you happy in your cage

oh i need so much more than you,
but in your eyes it’s getting more wonderful
if you could see the things i do,
you'd know that it's all for me

little bird, are you happy in your cage
little bird, are you happy in your cage

little bird, are you happy in your cage
little bird, are you happy in your cage

LYRICS:

The distant echo -
of faraway voices boarding faraway trains
To take them home to
the ones that they love and who love them forever
The glazed, dirty steps - repeat my own and reflect my thoughts
Cold and uninviting, partially naked
Except for toffee wrapers and this morning's papers
Mr. Jones got run down
Headlines of death and sorrow - they tell of tomorrow
Madmen on the rampage
And I'm down in the tube station at midnight
I fumble for change - and pull out the Queen
Smiling, beguiling
I put in the money and pull out a plum
Behind me
Whispers in the shadows - gruff blazing voices
Hating, waiting
"Hey boy" they shout - "have you got any money?"
And I said - "I've a little money and a take away curry,
I'm on my way home to my wife.
She'll be lining up the cutlery,
You know she's expecting me
Polishing the glasses and pulling out the cork"
And I'm down in the tube station at midnight

I first felt a fist, and then a kick
I could now smell their breath
They smelt of pubs and Wormwood Scrubs
And too many right wing meetings
My life swam around me
It took a look and drowned me in its own existence
The smell of brown leather
It blended in with the weather
It filled my eyes, ears, nose and mouth
It blocked all my senses
Couldn't see, hear, speak any longer
And I'm down in the tube station at midnight
I said I was down in the tube station at midnight

The last thing that I saw
As I lay there on the floor
Was "Jesus Saves" painted by an atheist nutter
And a British Rail poster read "Have an Awayday - a cheap holiday -
Do it today!"
I glanced back on my life
And thought about my wife
'cause they took the keys and she'll think its me
And I'm down in the tube station at midnight
The wine will be flat and the curry's gone cold
I'm down in the tube station at midnight
Don't want to go down in a tube station at midnight
