Fire and evening light, when you play my tune, don’t even have to try, longing for my phone, that doesn't ring with blues, Nokia or 0 Two tones, this beach has come to life, cool grains here to sooth, not lost on Freeway tyres, brings grace to our bones, accepts all that we do, even to atone, a return to paradise, we never make the news, just want a better life, to shelter all that's gone, someone we can glue, far from being alone, you’re not always nice, never say what’s true, kiss the warm night, know what it is to lose.

Why beat at the stalls, sit down in the rain, hover at infirmary's door, you are never at home, it’s just the same, stuff that makes you roam, what am I saying this for, there’s nothing to gain, while you run with whores, can't you atone, dance away my pain, recognise love’s not a loan, you know the score, your face a savage shade, I’m praying you roar, don't spit on the floor, or cry out my name, you’re not needed anymore, you always touch the bone, I never want to say, this time it’s too raw, to face myself again.

Happy songs in my car, hot water in my tank, it only leaves a scar, blown by your forays, a ticking from the crank, an awful terrible waste, you peer within the dark, make even sunshine dank, scatter ashes on the bar, what is left to say, my mind fills up blank, clings to a brighter day, Oh, you are a dog, no one else to thank, rolled me like a log, brought me to this state, no one else to thank, what’s left anyway, we never know how far, what lies down the track, to see what's going on, how much in the bank?

Cathy

Sometimes I ask why, can we ever atone, our eyes run wild on fire, it could be shame, that lights our bitter home, each night and every day, not blessed with foresight, the wind runs cold, you leave another time, kids and dogs bear your name, why get stoned, just try and stay sane, when you hear me cry, don’t leave a hanging phone, it's not enough to sigh, buy some shiny nails, help me with the loans, a house is not a jail, no matter how we fight, or bruise our yellow bones, we can do this right, beyond the credit zones.

Please don't identify, one lonely swimming pool, between me and the sky, tell me it’s nothing, lies ripped from a sewer, you’d never offer, angst for a wedding night, no one behaves uncouth stuff that you'd get right, don’t want me to suffer, you’ll shed bad dreams too, act like a winner, bring sweetness to the light, not saved for the few, buttered dreams candlelight, to tell you the truth,, instead of this cruise, why not embrace everything, don’t ask me to fly, for fear of losing, I don't dance on wire, I’ve paid my dues.

We share jokes and put, hopes on those who reappear, geese rise among the lost, no one owns a crown, to be ushered in here, or put others down, those of us fussed, we'll always hold dear, what's been crossed, in our Ocean town, everything is clear, you know who is sound, someone to trust, she walks like the deer, with a hint of musk, everywhere she goes, she brushes away fear, never on her own, torches the falling years, each night a must, to bathe in happy tears, laugh before the dust

Ray

Get a ship to France, do you expect me to say, you can beg another chance, don't let me go acute, your life is framed, but you're no fool, fact is you're banned, once again nailed, too much love pranced, say what you want to, your lies are details, it won’t be smooth, don’t look askance, when I start to rail, passion can pass, shame doesn’t bother you, nothing more to say, you won’t need tunes, to slide down the scale, will you take my hand, look at me again, you haven’t the class, the door's your name.
