DUNES DELIRIUM - Dreamgirl and the Motorist (c) and (p) Dreamgirl and the Motorist 1999 We're stuck in the Bermuda triangle Lapses of time are no longer It's been 2.40pm for a week now And i don't think we'll be leaving here anytime soon Three o'clock is no nearer to us than the sun Disposable ideas in dots per inch Lie dormant in screensaver mode We are alone We are alone It is the year 2010 but we're still stuck in 1999 It is the year 2010 but we're still stuck in 1999 We are alone in the confines of this dreaded space It sucked us in long ago and bound us never to escape Lips close on clenched teeth and we're tortured by continuous playlists Our ship floats in and out of time in centimetres only Damn is it 3 o'clock yet? It never is, never ever It is the year 2010 but we're still stuck in 1999 It is the year 2010 but we're still stuck in 1999 Consumerism keeps the feet fixed in the same place Let the legs wobble with anxiety And the mind wander around on another plain All for that routine of day to day familiarity that is so kindly given to us

Sympathiser 04:02
SYMPATHISER (A night home in Manchester) - Dreamgirl and the Motorist (c) and (p) Dreamgirl and the Motorist 2004 I'm walking down the lane It's so dark and silent I know that I shouldn't go But you say to me "Please take me home, I don't think I can make it alone" "I can't make it alone" This could be the stupidest thing We've done in our lives We may not make it out alive But we've been taught to sympathise So we'll just go on and on and on We're walking down the lane Looking at each other and both ways You hold on tight as you say "Don't be afraid, it will be alright. I promise you that you'll make it home tonight" "You'll make it home tonight" This could be the stupidest thing We've done in our lives We may not make it out alive But we've been taught to sympathise So we'll just go on and on and on We reach the end of the lane Your keys open the door and it swings away We look each other in the eye We don't say a thing And take her inside She cries "Don't leave!" As we run for our lives! Back down the lane Back from where we came This could be the stupidest thing We've done in our lives We may not make it out alive But we've been taught to sympathise So we'll just go on and on and on

EVERYWHERE I GO - Dreamgirl and the Motorist (c) and (p) Dreamgirl and the Motorist 2000 I'm trapped behind glass with you on the outside I'm standing naked only to your eyes I'm losing my breath my chest is tight Won't you just whisper some words before leaving? You're everywhere that I go You're everywhere I go Even with my eyes closed So how do I escape? A teenager I become whenever you're around Watch me fumble with my words, I'm sinking Dipped in shades of blue, your eyes shine like light Won't you just whisper one word before leaving? You're everywhere that I go You're everywhere I go Even with my eyes closed So how do I escape?

Crush Me 03:45
CRUSH ME - Dreamgirl and the Motorist (c) and (p) Dreamgirl and the Motorist 2001 Step aside while I give all that is mine You are everything I could ever want Where's the signs? They're all in my mind YOU CRUSH ME.. Sent to keep me cynical And avoiding rejection Just one more thing To add to my collection YOU CRUSH ME...

Frailty 04:38
FRAILTY - Dreamgirl and the Motorist (c) and (p) Dreamgirl and the Motorist 2004 You look like death Standing there on the edge You with your sunken eyes You with your thin thighs You looked up at me But didn't see what I could see You on the edge You on the edge Frailty It started in your mind Now it drags you down all the time Eyes are playing tricks Making you feel sick Still I see you walking everyday Your body barely able to hold your frailty You can no longer see Your own frailty Frailty Take those magazines off the shelf They're no good for the health Put realism on TV Not unreachable images of how we should be Wake up and be responsible For impressionable minds that you've moulded And who've stopped eating to die I wonder who you are And if you've got anyone to tell you You've gone too far You can no longer see Your own frailty Frailty

Ashamed 04:31
ASHAMED - Dreamgirl and the Motorist (c) and (p) Dreamgirl and the Motorist 2006 You don't know What it's like to struggle Sitting in you house on the hill Spoon fed your entire existence How can you speak for anyone else? Tax cuts for the rich Penny-less for the poor Turn away anyone that needs at all You make me feel ASHAMED You and your new workplace relations Suit none but people in high places Spoon fed all of your new ideas How can you run a whole country? Tax cuts for the rich Penny-less for the poor Turn away anyone that needs at all You make me feel ASHAMED You know that one day it will catch up with you When your time is through And we'll be there watching every little thing that you do When you get what's coming to you You'll be made to look at all the lives you've ruined In your time of rule So maybe you should turn things around soon And help those less fortunate than you. Tax cuts for the rich Penny-less for the poor Turn away anyone that needs at all You make me feel ASHAMED

Don't Change 03:39
Don't Change - Dreamgirl and the Motorist (c) and (p) Dreamgirl and the Motorist 2006 Don't you change anything for me So don't you change anything for me when we both go we will walk away silent paying last respects to a battle lost but now we've both won So don't you change anything for me So don't you change anything for me, for me We are the soldiers of hope helping to free our wounded so now it's (higher) time to be on our own and wage an offence of our own So don't you change anything for me So don't you change anything for me So don't you change (higher) anything for me So don't you change anything for me, for me

CIRCUS ANIMALS - Dreamgirl and the Motorist (c) and (p) Dreamgirl and the Motorist 2005 This town has become so small Not like we left it at all Either it has changed or we have both grown Beyond this place we called our home Chorus Come over here, come along for the ride It's a circus up here In this mind of mine Everyday I can't show you how I feel So how can we keep it real? From the outside we seem worlds apart But not when it comes to our hearts Chorus Come over here, come along for the ride It's a circus up here In this mind of mine Of mine...in this mind of mine (repeat x3) It's come to an end We don't need to pretend it's working When it's not working We can exist as friends and be together to the end If we want to If we want to (x6) And we do And so we do
