Auntie Sarah 03:22
Last night I went to the fish and chip shop A wee dog stole a haddy bone A big dog tried to pinch it So I gave it a punch on the nose I went to tell my Auntie Sarah But my Auntie Sarah wasny in So I looked through a hole in the windi And shouted 'Auntie Sarah - are you in?' CH Auntie Sarah are you in? Auntie Sarah are you in? Auntie Sarah are you in? Are you in? Her false teeth were lying on the table Her wig was lying on the bed Her leg was stonning in the corner Her wig was lying on the table Her false teeth were lying on the table Her wig was lying on the bed Her leg was stonning in the corner So I went off to find her in the shed Thought she was hingin in the cludgy Her big fit poked through the door Her shudders and hon s were shaking she said 'don't be coming here no more!' CH Are you there, are you there Sarah? Are you in? Did you see her go by You will be the next to cry The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out How many times till you're out? Her false teeth were lying on the table Her wig was lying on the bed Her leg was stonning in the corner Her wig was lying on the table CH

Ghost 02:55
The sunlight catches on the leaves of red That fall upon my head as I stand by your door The wind it blows my skirt and my ears feel so cold they hurt but I don't move The ice will not be melting on the ground or in this place on which I stand Or in my heart CH There's too many kinds of love that kill you I'll be waiting for you Take my hands I'll walk right through you I'm a ghost of who I used to be You're haunting me Hear you on your mobile phone Your voice is saying you're not home again, but it's a lie I lay on your attic floor behind the little wooden door My lungs fill with dust And through the walls I hear you breathe and eat and laugh and dance and sneeze But I don't make a sound CH I will follow in my car even if you go so very far I won't mind Here, there, anywhere, if you are going I'll be there I've lost my mind

Monster 03:49
I'm staying in bed today Shadows at my door won't go away Something's lurking and I try to remember What my mother used to say Somebody at my shoulder My little room getting colder My body shivers and I have to remember What my mother used to say CH Please don't be scared of monsters that hide Under your bed, inside your head I'll sing you a love song or a lullaby La la la la, la la la la He won't sit on my shoulder My little devil is bolder Creeps under my skin and I have to remind him What my mother used to say CH Like Humpty Dumpty I've fallen so far See all the pieces that used to be part of me Pick me up gently, I won't feel pain Maybe I'll go back together again CH

I am waiting for the moonlight to take me far from here I am waiting for the stars to shine and light the way Feel the night time wrap around me I'm safe within her arms I am weightless I am flying I am lifted Feel the wind rush in my ears and yet there is no sound CH Treetops and rooftops the village church spire Leave them behind as I'm lifted up higher I'll be there soon Mr Man on the Moon I'll be there soon Man on the Moon I am reaching for your beaming face The smile that shines for me Feel the twinkle in your eyes I know you're waiting I am freedom, I am moonlight, I am star shine Ch Ever higher, ever closer See through my skin Touch the soul within CH

Fallen Angel 05:01
Pennies and pounds pass the cash round Pledging my vows to the plastic economy Down on my knees Forgive me please Hand over fees to the god of unlimited beauty Darling you look so divine A miracles erased the time Ch If all the angels came tumbling down from the sky Would you share the air you breathe Soaring, falling, flying, crawling Would you believe in me Censor the lines, condition minds, hope that they buy If we make them feel bad enough Taming them thin, control the skin Correct the sin of the real identity CH

Angels can fall, ghosts walk through walls Into your home the monsters roam But now you are grown Make a made up story of your own CH Auntie Sarah, fall to the ground Murder polis, draw chalk around Pick her up, carry her away Jump in, jump out, let's hear you shout See the weans play The world is a story we tell every day One to another in our own way The plot is a land as yet unplanned The pen is in your hand CH Once upon a line of a song You are the time it is upon You are just a kid the possibilities Are infinite CH Murder murder murder polis, three stairs up In the middle close, hit hit me with a cup Now my heids all bleeding and my lips all cut Murder polis, three stairs up
