"Fun In Space", Roger Taylor (1981) ------------------------------------------------- No Violins (Taylor) ------------------------------------------------- We were talking about the old times We went walking down the streets we used to run Remember when you were angry About every cause to be had We weren't all bad... I'm not talking about security complex I ain't talking about some monochrome duplex I ain't talking about some new kind of weird sex I'm just talking about - you and me The way we used to be - hey I'm just talking about you and me brother I'm just talking about another time and place We were hungry we were mad We were angry we were glad We were really Jack the lad We weren't all bad We went down we cruised around We went down down down in the violence We went around we went around and round and round We didn't hear no violins Where's the madness where's the fire With the flames getting higher Where's the saints and the liars I'm not talking about security complex I ain't talking about some monochrome duplex I ain't talking about some new kind of weird sex I'm just talking about - you and me The way we used to be - oh I'm just talking about you and me brother I'm just talking about another time and place We were hungry we were mad We were angry we were glad We were really Jack the lad We weren't all bad We went down we cruised around We went down down down in the violence We went around we went around and round and round We didn't hear no violins Where's the madness where's the fire With the flames getting higher Where's the saints and the liars We went down we cruised around We went down down down in the violence We went around we went around and round and round We didn't hear no violins We went down we cruised around We went down down down in the violence We went around we went around and round and round We didn't hear no violins ------------------------------------------------- Laugh Or Cry (Taylor) ------------------------------------------------- This ain't no tragedy This ain't no addiction This ain't no comedy This ain't no fiction But baby you make me laugh And baby you make me cry I don't mind either way Now I don't care why You just gotta laugh - or cry Right till the day you die Just open up your heart Or open up your eyes Laugh or cry So anytime you wanna laugh Anytime you wanna cry Just open up your heart Or open up your eyes And baby laugh - or cry And baby I know That you'll thank me some day (Don't hide your emotions) And baby I know That you'll see it my way (Forget all these notions) So anytime you wanna laugh Anytime you wanna cry Just open up your heart Or open up your eyes And baby laugh - or cry Right till the day you die ------------------------------------------------- Future Management (Taylor) ------------------------------------------------- You won't need nobody else but me......
