You sift through trouble, won't get frightened, no one tells on you, before you throw, straw onto fire, the stuff you let go, silence is your rub, a source of brine, hands you scrub, laugh at blue cold, hear the clock chime, who will ever know, these summer loves, forgives broken strife, sings in your blood, before the river flows, check the earth and tides, what you’ve been sold, pull on your singer’s gloves, take your time, shoulder what's to come, drink a little wine.

If you cook with gas, turn the flame up, give it a blast, face like a stone, it’s the way you love, not worth going home, silken ones who trap, think that you're stuck, roll around and laugh, circle you like ghosts, roll in the muck, say you’re forever alone, you drink wine aghast, you’re no purling dove, whose wings will collapse, go your own way now, consider them fluff, you’re better off gone, no one has a pass, some say good luck, you want to shout Basta, more than enough.

Ally

Look at the moon, a spring tide today, everything comes around too soon, the birds who have flown, seeking away, singing as they go, your eyes don’t fool me, say wouldn't it be great, to find somewhere new, a place for the soul, where paradise reigns, forget mortgage loans, somewhere not cruel, but poised and sedate, no ticket’s due, problems with ‘phones, emotion a name, for all that we know, your good parts are true, I know it’s the case, how will you argue, high on his name ? .

Bobby

For each little bit of you, if anyone enquires, don’t give them a clue, life isn't a stone, thrown into the fire, why should I atone, my little cup of ruin, is no more than desire, I still have the tunes, know in my bones, this poisoned desire, does it make you groan, whoever reads the news, to see who's for hire, I know my own truth, if no one 'phones, who needs a choir, leave me well alone, I’ll dance down the avenues, sing on the wire, I’ve always paid dues, am no kiss ass liar.

Peter

Sober you ask why, this way’s been chosen, before anything you can deny, more a dread space, you’re mouth frozen, with tired phrases, sing my favourite lines, our time done with roses, made better when you try, are all the great stations beyond my life hopeful, shrunken at waste, even the graveside, witnesses love's cloaking, clouds sail the sky, what settles on your face, neither time provokes, or blows over the traces, a flower at my side, just some little token, more a wish to verify, what truth is spoken.

Carly

Why live in a haze, sheltered from the sound, crumpled up like cellophane, best not to moan, or burn a holy candle, life is only a loan, jump the trains, scour the land, for that perfect place, in your worn out clothes, feet on the ground, you're not on your bones, make a step change, blow ten grand, find love instead of trade, when someone groans, do handstands, move away from that zone, not chained to your days, your heart expands, you’re so great, don't you understand?

Stella

I need another home, somewhere else to stay, now that you’re gone, what I need to do, is ship out the waste, forget about that Dude, in troubled zones, find solace every day, try not to feel alone, the sea is lemon blue, cafe's swell with rain, I’m feeling nothing new, here in my bones, but know there’s a way, to take control, something in my mood, that doesn’t laugh and say, sunshine kills the Blues, brilliant pheromones, whisper your name, my waters hold firm, I'm dancing today.
