All Across The Nation
(1987 single with Radio Heart - also on "Radio Heart" album)
All across the nation
All across the Nation
Somewhere in the city there is trouble going on
Someone's making money
Someone's doing wrong
Everybody's searching for a little piece of gold
Buy a place, fix a face, never grow old
It's a shame
(Who'se gonna take control?)
It's a game they play
(Who'se gonna save your soul?)
And they're never gonna stop 'till they reach the top
All across the nation
Fever takes control
Money is temptation
Money saves your soul
One thing I can tell you
Of this there is no doubt
A rich man needs his comfort
And a poor man does without
Everybody loves somebody all around the world
But everybody knows it's the rich man gets the girl
It's a shame
(Who'se gonna take control?)
It's a game they play
(Who'se gonna save your soul?)
And they're never gonna stop 'till they reach the top
All across the nation
Fever takes control
Money is temptation
Money saves your soul
Look at all the little people
Shelter from the rain
Standing at the bus stop
Dreaming 'bout Spain
Here comes the rich man driving his car
When he was poor he was sure
He was gonna go - far
(Who'se gonna take control?)
It's a game they play
(Who'se gonna save you soul?)
And they're never gonna stop until they reach the top
All across the nation
Fever takes control
Money is temptation
Money saves your soul
All across the nation
Fever takes control
Money is temptation
Money saves your soul
All across the nation
Fever takes control
Money is temptation
Money saves your soul
All across the nation
All across the nation
(Words & music by Hugh Nicholson
Lyrics from the extended version)
Rumour
(B-side, 'London Times' single, 1987)
I listen to rumours
Stone-cold and leaving
They burn my heart away
Left me old and grey
Words seem to leave me
Just when I needed them
Just like I need you
Like I'm supposed to do
They said
Love is deceiving, she won't stay forever
Love is deceiving, it's all that she knows
Love is deceiving, she'll leave you forever
Love is deceiving, she comes and she goes
I wonder
I wonder
I listen to rumours
I listen to every word
Every one die, then
And now it's up to me
