80's Australian Music - Lyrics

Postby CK » Sun Jan 30, 2011 7:06 pm

All songs are from the 1980's - the song name only is fine:

1. People stop and they look at him, and they say he sings like Mel Torme Wanna Be Up

2. Heard the screen door slam, and you were gone I'm Still On Your Side

3. Is kindness an ancient skill, buried by our blindness Age Of Reason

4. I’ve done no harm, I keep to myself, there’s nothing wrong with my state of mental health Who Can It Be Now

5. Making his way down the stairs, he can’t help but looking back Forever Now

6. I got no time, for private consultation Under The Milky Way

7. Dad’s so bad he lives in the pub, its underarms and football clubs Power And The Passion

8. You’ll never be a beauty queen, won’t feature in no magazine Like Wow Wipeout

9. Later at the party, all the MP’s rave Boys Light Up

10. Never thought that we’d last this long, always thought that they’d dropped the bomb Science Fiction

11. The people there will cut your hair, in Singapore Down On The Border

12. And I imagine you standing here, its subliminal, so inspirational I Send A Message

13. Can’t fight your destiny, know where it’s at, don’t look for lightning, or pray for a sign Chained To The Wheel

14. There’s a noise upstairs in the attic, it’s the shuffle of worn out shoes Man Of Colours

15. I thought we were just beginning, and now you say we’re in the past Hand On Your Heart

16. I watched you wave goodbye as you drove away, I didn’t know it would be your last time with me Take Me Back

17. And what would you say, if I called on you now, and said that it can’t go on All Out Of Love

18. Relax, abandon ship, turn your back on Mother Nature When The River Runs Dry

19. I’ve come to understand, there’s no such thing as perfection As The Days Goe By

20. All these feelings, they seem so wrong, remember, we were so strong. Rain

4. Who can it be now
It is better to be silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt
