Lyrics
The change will do you good, I always knew it would
Sometimes I’m thinking that I love you but I know it’s only lust
Your kiss so sweet, your sweat so sour

Your kiss so sweet, your sweat so sour
Sometimes I’m thinking that I love you but I know it’s only lust
The sins of the flesh are simply sins of lust
The sweat is running down your back, the sweat is running down your neck
Heated couplings in the sun (or is that untrue?)
Colder couplings in the night (never saw your body)
Your kiss so sweet, your sweat so sour
Sometimes I’m thinking that I love you but I know it’s only lust
The change will do you good, I always knew it would
You know the change will do you good
You know the change will do you good

Damaged goods send them back
I can’t work, I can’t achieve send me back
Open the till give me the change
You said would do me good, refund the cost
You said you’re cheap but you’re too much

Your kiss so sweet, your sweat so sour
Sometimes I’m thinking that I love you but I know it’s only lust
The change will do you good, I always knew it would
You know the change will do you good
You know the change will do you good

I’m kissing you goodbye (goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye)
I’m kissing you goodbye (goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye)
I’m kissing you goodbye (goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye)
I’m kissing you goodbye (goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye)
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Lyrics
I should have known that you’d bid me farewell
And there’s a lesson to be learned from this and I’ve learned it very well.
Now I know you’re not the only starfish in the sea.
If I never hear your name again it’s all the same to me.

And I think it’s gonna be all right, yes the worst is over now,
The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball

You never cared for secrets I’d confide
For you I’m just an ornament, something for your pride.
Always running, never caring, that’s the life you live
Stolen minutes of your time were all you had to give

And I think it’s gonna be all right, yes the worst is over now,
The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball

And I think it’s gonna be all right, yes the worst is over now,
The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball

The story’s in the past with nothing to recall
I’ve got my life to live and I don’t need you at all
The roller coaster ride we took is nearly at an end
I bought my ticket with my tears, that’s all I’m goning spend.

And I think it’s gonna be all right, yes the worst is over now,
The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball
And I think it’s gonna be all right, yes the worst is over now,
The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball

Listen to the Song:
[audio:Hormoans/05-FantasyTonight.mp3]
1981
Lyrics
You walk across the bar room floor, your ass looks good to me
There’s a space, like an entrance place to your juicy cavity
I’ll remember that later, oh I’ll recall your breasts and their buoyancy
Your eyes, I’ll memorize to imagine in my ecstasy

It’s the right kind of body to see with my eyes shut tight
Oh, be my Vaseline lady and my fantasy tonight

You sit there with your boyfriend, your legs spread so carelessly
My hand will do later what my eyes are now doing for me

It’s the right kind of body to see with my eyes shut tight
Oh, be my Vaseline lady and my fantasy tonight

Later at home, when I’m all alone you’ll appear behind my eyes
My hand will be your mouth, my mind will be your thighs
I don’t care who you are, your mind is not important to me
I don’t want to meet you, all I want is what I see

It’s the right kind of body to see with my eyes shut tight
Oh, be my Vaseline lady and my fantasy tonight

1981
Lyrics
Quick Joey Small went over the wall
Dragged a ball and a chain behind him
The Sheriff got cookin’, said we better start lookin’
So he sent the dogs right out to find him

Run Joey, Joey run run the hounds are on your trail
Run Joey, Joey run run they’re gonna send you back to jail

Sweet Mary Jane was goin’ insane when she heard of Joey’s jail break
But she knew all the while ’cause she sent him a file
Baked up deep inside a fudge cake

Run Joey, Joey run run the hounds are on your trail
Run Joey, Joey run run they’re gonna send you back to jail

Sheriff got a shotgun, he’ll fill you full of lead son
He’s also got a blackjack, he’s gonna bust your head with one wack

Run Joey, Joey run run the hounds are on your trail
Run Joey, Joey run run they’re gonna send you back to jail
Run Joey, Joey run run the hounds are on your trail
Run Joey, Joey run run they’re gonna send you back to jail, back to jail

Run Joey, Joey run run the hounds are on your trail
Run Joey, Joey run run they’re gonna send you back to jail, back to jail

Boys Don’t Cry

Track 01  On  Not One of You  By  Hormoans

Written by Michael Dempsey, Robert Smith, & Lol Tolhurst Song Length: 2:33
Listen to the Song:
[audio:Hormoans/03-BoysDon’tCry.mp3]
1981
Lyrics
I would say I’m sorry
If I thought that it would change your mind
But I know that this time
I have said too much, been too unkind

I try to laugh about it, cover it all up with lies
I try and laugh about it, hiding the tears in my eyes

Because boys don’t cry, boys don’t cry

I would break down at your feet and beg forgiveness, plead with you
But I know that it’s too late and now there’s nothing I can do

I try to laugh about it, cover it all up with lies
I try and laugh about it, hiding the tears in my eyes

Because boys don’t cry, boys don’t cry

I would tell you that I loved you
If I thought that you would stay
But I know that it’s no use
That you’ve already gone away

Misjudged your limit, pushed you too far
Took you for granted, I thought that you needed me more

Now I would do most anything to get you back by my side
But I just keep on laughing, hiding the tears in my eyes

Because boys don’t cry, boys don’t cry, boys don’t cry
