Song lyrics
All tracks are written by Andrew Farriss and Michael Hutchence, except where noted.

Shabooh Shoobah (1982)

 * Well, you know just what you do to me, The way you move, soft and slippery. Cut the night just like a razor, Rarely talk, and that's the danger. It's the one thing. You are my thing.
 * "The One Thing"


 * I'm standing here on the ground, The sky above won't fall down. See no evil in all directions, Resolution of happiness. Things have been dark For too long. Don't change for you. Don't change a thing for me.
 * "Don't Change", written by Beers, A. Farriss, J. Farriss, T. Farriss, Hutchence, Pengilly

The Swing (1984)

 * Dream on white boy, Dream on black girl. And wake up to a brand new day To find your dreams have washed away.
 * "Original Sin"


 * And I imagine you standing here. It's subliminal, so inspirational. Man of the world for all the good reasons. Take away the pain and drink the wine. I miss the people, I miss the fun. You're my apparition, She's my only one.
 * "I Send a Message"


 * Watch the world argue, Argue with itself. Who's going to teach me Peace and happiness? We could sit here forever, Just never get old. Listen to the world Letting God's tyres down.
 * "Dancing on the Jetty"


 * It's no use pretending That I understand The hide and seek we play with facts. It changes our demand. Tilt my hat at the sun, And the shadows they burn dark. Light me and I'll burn for you, And the love song never stops.
 * "Burn for You"

Listen Like Thieves (1985)

 * Hey, here is the story: Forget about the troubles in life. Don't you know, it's not easy When you gotta walk upon that line. That's why - You need Oooo, that's why. - This is what you need. I'll give you what you need.
 * "What You Need"


 * Playing in the dirt, We find the seeds of doubt. Don't water them with your tears. Don't think about all the years you'd rather be without.
 * "Kiss the Dirt"


 * We are always wanting The things we cannot find. You know that we are Always wasting time.
 * "This Time", written by Andrew Farriss

(1987)

 * Live baby live, Now that the day is over. I gotta new sensation, In perfect moments. Impossible to refuse. Sleep baby sleep, Now that the night is over. And the sun comes Like a god into our room. All perfect light and promises.
 * "New Sensation"


 * Here comes the woman, with the look in her eye, Raised on leather, with flesh on her mind. Words as weapons, sharper than knives. Makes you wonder, how the other half die? Other half die Makes you wonder, wonder, wonder.
 * "Devil Inside"


 * The devil inside, the devil inside, Every single one of us the devil inside.
 * "Devil Inside"


 * So slide over here And give me a moment. Your moves are so raw. I've got to let you know. I've got to let you know, You're one of my kind. I need you tonight Cause I'm not sleeping. There's something about you girl That makes me sweat.
 * "Need You Tonight"


 * Hallucinate, desegregate. Mediate, alleviate. Try not to hate.
 * "Mediate", written by Andrew Farriss


 * Don't ask me What you know is true. Don't have to tell you I love your precious heart. I... I was standing. You were there. Two worlds collided. And they could never tear us apart.
 * "Never Tear Us Apart"


 * I need perfection, Some twisted selection That tangles me, To keep me alive. In all that exists, None have your beauty. I see your face. I will survive.
 * "Mystify"

X (1990)

 * Got some revelation put into your hands. Save you from your misery Like rain across the land. Don't you see? The colour of deception Turning your world around again.
 * "Suicide Blonde"


 * Say I'm crying; I'm looking at what's on T.V. Pain and suffering And the struggle to be free.
 * "Disappear", written by 	J. Farriss, M. Hutchence


 * In a room above a busy street, The echoes of a life, The fragments and the accidents, Separated by incidents. Listen too by the walls. We share the same spaces, Repeated in the corridors, Performing the same movements. Storey to storey, Building to building, Street to street. We pass each other on the stairs.
 * "The stairs"


 * In the dark of the night, Those small hours. Uncertain and anxious, I need to call you. Rooms full of strangers, Some call me friend. But I wish you were so close to me.
 * "By My Side", written by A. Farriss, M. Hutchence, C. Thomas


 * Bitter tears taste so sweet. I'm seeing my way For the first time in years. When the love around Begins to suffer, And you can't find love In one, In one another, Push away those bitter tears.
 * "Bitter Tears"

Welcome to Wherever You Are (1992)

 * Your eyes are like deep wells of desire. Once in your arms I'm on fire. You were sent girl so perfectly true, Changing my life. Now I'm a survivor. Heaven sent, That's what I call you.
 * "Heaven Sent", written by Andrew Farriss


 * And I was lost for words In your arms, Attempting to make sense Of my aching heart. If I could just be Everything and everyone to you, This life would just be so easy.
 * "Not Enough Time"


 * When you're down and confused, Nothing seems right. And it's you who decides Who's going to make it right.
 * "Baby Don't Cry", written by Andrew Farriss


 * Now where did you find her? Among the neon lights That haunt the streets outside. She said, stay with me. Beautiful girl (stay with me).
 * "Beautiful Girl", written by Andrew Farriss

Elegantly Wasted (1997)

 * Look at all that shines. Baby's down on the world and she knows it. If your spirit's running, Why don't me make it rain like we used to? We run, We hide, We wait and we want The good life. Aw sure, You're right. This ain't the good life. Ah, Elegantly wasted. Ah, Elegantly wasted.
 * "Elegantly Wasted"


 * Yeah, we're not the only ones Who bleed for the love that's lost. Trust, like the air we breathe. Live, you've got to loose some sleep. Everything you do for me, Everything I do for you. Everything you do for me, No one else comes close to you.
 * "Everything"


 * The heart you're building out of rock Is turning into sand 'Cause you never took the time to think What it means to be a man.
 * "Don't Lose Your Head"
