You’re asking for my opinion
You’re asking me how I choose
Then you’re telling me how to vote
Telling me how to choose
Go back two steps
And look deep into my eye
You can see the difference
Coz this is The Mockracy
This the Mockracy baby
I say – this is the Mockracy
This is The Mockracy
This the Mockracy baby
I say – this is the Mockracy
This the Mockracy
The Mockracy
This the Mockracy

IN THE PLACE

In the place where I was born
I used to see a little girl
Walking down the street
In the place where I was born
In the place where I was raised
I used to see a little man
walking down the street
They were holding hands
They were holding hands
So now the little girl and the little man
They used to smile to each other
Yes the little girl and the little man
They used to fondle each other
They stepped out on the motorbike
Going far away – far away – far away
They used to go far away
The little girl and the little man
I used to see a little man
Walking down the street with a little girl
Holding hands – yes, they were holding hands
So far away - They used to travel so far away
So far away – so far away – so far away

If you take to the river
And drop me in the water

Take me to the river
Take me to the river
Drop me in the water baby
I will show – I will show you
What it means to be alone
I f you give me the chance, baby
I… I… I… will show you
I will show you – I will show you
If you give me the chance, baby
Only if you give me the chance
The chance – the chance – the chance
I will show, show you, show you,
If you give me the chance
Just a chance

Suite blues
Please ! Please believe me
I said please -Please believe me, baby
It’s hard to make you understand
So hard - when you get down
When you get down on your knees
You make me cry – you make me cry
The things that might have been
Sweet sixteen - coz it breaks my heart
To tell you - the things inside my mind
The things inside my mind,
Sweet sixteen - for the things that might have been
The things of heart that are inside me
So hard to express – so hard – so hard
Oh baby won’t you tell me
Won’t you tell me, baby?

Late at night
Sitting in the kitchen
Having a piece of bread
I thought I’d told you
I thought I’d already told you
The perception of life
The perception of life
It’s not what you might think it is
The perception of life
The perception of life
Hold my hand
Touch me softly
Coz I need some perception
Perception of life
I need some perception of life
You better shake it
You better shake it baby – ooh!
No you never know
No you never know
Never never never never know
Coz this might be the end, baby
But then again – it might not be
But you never know
Coz this might be the end, baby
But then again – it might not be
But you never know

Where were you , in 1975?
Where was I, in 1975?
I’m asking you – asking you
Where were you, in 1975?
Checking out the chicks – in the disco
Where was I, in 1975?
Checking out the chicks in the disco
Trying to understand which car to buy
A beautiful house – a beautiful wife
Where were you , in 1975?
Where was I, in 1975?
In 1975 – “nineteen-seventy-five”
Where were you, in 1975?
Where was I, in 1975?

Shut down the roar
If you want to see a truthful lifetime
Open the road, open the road
If you want to roam around
If you need to roam around
Shut down the road – the road
Hold it against your chest
Shut down the road – shut down the road
I’m calling you – I’m calling you
Calling you
Won’t you hear me, baby?
Won’t you hear me, I’m calling you
I need to talk to someone
I need to talk to you
And I’m calling you
I’m calling you, baby
I know it’s true
That the things we see - are untrue
The things you read in the newspaper
The things you see on television
The things you hear on radio
Calling you – I’m calling you
Calling! Calling! Calling you
Calling - Calling - Calling you
If you do understand
If you want to understand
Untrue!

STAY
Once upon a time I had to run
To run away
Once upon a time I had to run
To run away
All I do is never mind
You never mind what I do anyway
What I do you never mind, you never mind what I do
Coz now I'm goin' to stay - I'm going to stay
I'm going to stay - and stay
Once upon a time I had to run
To run and run away
I never thought I had to run quite so far away
You never mind you never mind what I say
You never mind you never mind you never mind
Where I stay anyway
Coz I'm going to, going to stay
Going to stay - going to stay and to stay
I'm not, not going to
To run away - anymore
I'm not, not going to run away
Once upon a time I had to run
To run,to run away
But now I have decided to stay
Right by your side
I said
Once upon a time I had to run
To run,to run away
You never mind you never mind what I say
Anyway
Once upon a time I had to run
To run,to run away
I, I, I decided to stay - anyway
Anyway
I'l stay I stay I stay
I'l stay I stay I stay
Right by your side

THE WAY WE ARE INSIDE
02:40

Tell me now
It's a little bit strange
The way we are inside
The way we're made inside
Listen now, it's a little bit strange
The way we're made inside
This is what keeps
Falling out of our head
There's a way to make them stay
I keep forgetting how
It's a little bit sad
The way we are inside
Why is it always so hard to
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Why is it always so hard
To understand?
The way we are inside
The way we're made inside
You should know
Since you live inside my mind
So why do you always find a way
To run away?
The way we're made inside
The way we are inside
The way we are inside
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Why is it always so hard
To understand?
