Nova Mob – Admiral Of The Sea

I am an admiral of the sea
And I’m known from far and wide inside the admiralty
What’s this ahead, in front of me?
I am an admiral of the sea
I am an admiral of the land
And there’s many men and armies under my command
When things are getting out of hand
I am an admiral of the land
I am an admiral of the air
And I look at you when I fly by, oh I don’t care
Look out, be careful, and beware
I am an admiral of the air

I am an admiral of the fire
But you probably could tell me by my black attire
Flames rising higher and higher
I am an admiral of the fire
I am an admiral of the sea
And I’m known from far and wide inside the admiralty
What’s this ahead, in front of me?
I am an admiral of the sea
I am an admiral of the air
And I look at you when I fly by, oh I don’t care
Look out, be careful, and beware
I am an admiral of the air

Expert In A Dying Field – The Beths

Can we erase our history
Is it as easy as this
Plausible deniability
I swear I’ve never heard of it
And I can close the door on us
But the room still exists
And I know you’re in it

Hours of phrases I’ve memorised
Thousands of lines on the page
All of my notes in a desolate pile
I haven’t touched in an age
And I can burn the evidence
But I can’t burn the pain
And I can’t forget it

How does it feel
To be an expert in a dying field
How do you know
It’s over when you can’t let go
You can’t stop
Can’t rewind
Love is learned over time
‘Til your an expert in a dying field

The city is painted with memory
The water will never run clear
The birds and the bees and the flowers and trees
They know that we’ve both been here
And I can flee the country for the worst of the year
But I’ll come back to it

How does it feel
To be an expert in a dying field
How do you know
It’s over when you can’t let go
You can’t stop
Can’t rewind
Love is learned over time
‘Til you’re an expert in a dying field

Can we erase our history
Is it as easy as this
Maybe in other realities
The road never took this twist
And I can close the door on us
But the room still exists

The Beths - "Expert In A Dying Field"

 

What do I get? (Live 1977 @ The Electric Circus)

I just want a lover like any other, what do I get?
I only want a friend who will stay to the end, what do I get?
What do I get, oh-oh, what do I get?
What do I get, oh-oh, what do I get?
I’m in distress, I need a caress, what do I get?
I’m not on the make, I just need a break, what do I get?
What do I get, oh-oh, what do I get?
What do I get, oh-oh, what do I get?
I only get sleepless nights
Alone here in my half-empty bed
For you things, seem to turn out right
I wish they’d only happen to me instead
What do I get, oh-oh, what do I get?
What do I get, oh-oh, what do I get?
Ah
I only get sleepless nights
Alone here in my half-empty bed
For you, things seem to turn out right
I wish they’d only happen to me instead
What do I get, oh-oh, what do I get?
What do I get, oh-oh, what do I get?
I just want a lover like any other, what do I get?
I only want a friend who will love to the end, what do I get?
What do I get, oh-oh, what do I get?
What do I get, oh-oh, what do I get?
Well, let me tell you now
(What do I get?)
(What do I get?) No love
(What do I get?) No sleep at nights
(What do I get?) Nothing that’s nice
(What do I get?) Nothing at all, at all, at all, at all
At all, at all, at all ’cause I don’t get you

I Love a Man in a Uniform – Gang of Four

Time with my girl, I spent it well
I had to be strong for my woman
She says, you must be joking, oh man
You must be joking, she needed to be protected

The good life was so elusive
Handouts, they got me down
I had to regain my self-respect
So, I got into camouflage

The girls, they love to see you shoot
I love a man in a uniform
I love a man in a uniform
I love a man in a uniform
I love a man in a uniform

To have ambition was my ambition
Time with my girl, I spent it well
You must be joking, oh man, you must be joking

The good life was so elusive
Handouts, they got me down
I had to regain my confidence
So, I got into camouflage

The girls, they love to see you shoot
I love a man in a uniform
I love a man in a uniform
I love a man in a uniform
I love a man in a uniform

I need an order, shoot
I need an order, shoot
I need an order, shoot
I need an order

To have ambition was my ambition
Time with my girl, I spent it well
You must be joking, oh man, you must be joking

The girls, they love to see you shoot
The girls, they love to see you shoot
I love a man in a uniform
I love a man in a uniform
I love a man in a uniform

The girls, they love to see you shoot
I love a man in a uniform
The girls, they love to see you shoot
I love a man in a uniform

The girls, they love to see you shoot
I love a man in a uniform
The girls, they love to see you shoot
I love a man in a uniform
The girls, they love to see you shoot
