the single:
NO TRAGEDY
THE CHURCH
IT'S NO
REASON
Crocodile skin water, city shadows wait
Put your head into your hands, the ending is so great
Take a ride to sundown, buy a ticket home
Take all the things I've bought you, leave all the rest alone
Marble skins turn human, people fade to grey
Put your head into my hands we'll make them go away
As you're crying softly, you won't ever be disturbed
Red on pink, the sun will sink, have you even heard?
And the colours take me down
It's no reason to be sad
And you leave without a sound
It's no reason to be glad
Salty tears are wasted, children lie awake
Put your head into my hands, don't let your spirit break
Black smoke from the chimneys, white smoke from the hills
Everything is moving, but we're standing still
Celebrations fading, boats upon the waves
Put your head into my hands, trying to be brave
The carnival has packed up, the storm has left us peace
Poppies sleep undamaged, we drive into the east

PIECES
OF
ICE
Walking blind across this silver
room
Looking through a smoke
menagerie
Looking at your face inside of me
In the darkness you're Tunisia
Nights are long entropic
I can't seem to cope
It's cold when I look in your eyes
Pieces of ice
Pieces of ice
Pieces of ice
Pieces of ice
Where the zebra lightning strikes
the room
Foreign words are strutted
through the gloom
Women swooping down like birds
of prey
Never close but never far away
Nights are long entropic
I can't seem to cope
It's cold when I look in your eyes
Pieces of ice
Pieces of ice

6. (SHE 'S)
its the new album from
A FLOCK OF SEAGULLS
(SHE'S) SEXY + 17
(Setzer)
Hey man I don't feel like going to school no more
Me neither
Can't make me go
No way daddy 0
I ain't going to school starts too early for me
I ain't going to school starts too early for me
I don't care about readin', writin', 'rithmatic or history
I'm gonna walk up to the corner meet my little Marie
She's the only one in this whole 'orid who understands me
Chorus:
Well she's sexy and seventeen
My little rock 'n roll queen
Acts a little bit obscene
Gotta let off a little steam
Dig that sound and shake it around
You're mine, mine, mine
Johnny and Eddie and me and Jimmy and Jack
Are gonna do a little number on the teacher when she turns her back
Cut outa class and meet the girls by the railroad tracks
Every Friday night there's a band that you gotta hear
Just a dollar to get in and twenty five cents a beer
They play rock In' roll music like it hasn't been rocked for years
Repeat Chorus
When I hear that rockin' beat
I can't sit still up outa my seat
C'mon baby shuffle round your feet
Can't learn nothin' in school
They won't teach you on the street
Wha00000 baby I like your style
Wha00000 baby I like your style
You don't care what the other kids say you go real wild
Repeat Chorus
This their second album, LISTEN was
recorded in Germany, again with
Mike Howlett producing.
It's the album that will break them in
Australia.

12. WHY ME?
Life felt so right
111'" I was drowned in your light
AI With the world so in tune
"Til you made me out for a fool
Left with nothing to do
Can't forget about you
With my heart in my hands
Pack my bags
Leave the memories with you
Chorus:
You gave me nothing but misery
I found so much more
You used me oh so helplessly
Don't want your sympathy
Why me, why me, why me
When I was the one who could set your
heart free
Why me, why me, why me
You took all the love I gave up selfishly
Why me
Trapped in your space
Never thought I could face
Going one step beyond
When I knew deep inside I was strong
Now I know what it takes
Can't repeat the mistakes
When new love comes along
It'll give me what I'll call my own

MUSIC WORLD STUNNED AS
AMAZING FINDINGS ON
"NH3 AVE"ARE REVEALED
Last night a little dancer came dancing to my door I
Last night my little angel came pumping on my floor
She said come baby I gotta licence for love
And if it expires pray help from above, because
CHORUS:
In the midnight hour she cried more more more
With a rebel yell she cried more more more
In the midnight hour babe more more more
With a rebel yell more more more, more more more
She don't like slav'ry she won't sit and beg
But when I'm tired and lonely she sees me to bed
What set you free and brought you to me babe
What set you free and leaves you here by me, because
CHORUS:
In the midnight hour she cried more more more
With a rebel yell she cried more more more
In the midnight hour babe more more more
With a rebel yell more more more
He lives in-a his own heaven
Collects it to go from the seven eleven
Well he's out all night to collect a fare
Just so long just so long it don't mess up his hair
CHORUS:
In the midnight hour she cried more more more
With a rebel yell she cried more more more
In the midnight hour babe more more more
With a rebel yell more more more, more more more
Oh yeh little baby she want more more more more more more
Oh yeh little angel she want more more more more more more
WITH A REBEL YELL
— Billy Idol/Steve Stevens

"Literally millions of people will feel the effects of
this project", one person was quoted as saying. Alan
Parsons and Eric Woolfson have certainly topped
themselves this time, and I think it's safe to
conclude that the effects will be heard in the air
for many months to come."
