Tears For Fears : Songs from the Big Chair
Lyrics
1. Shout
Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you, come on
Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you, come on
In violent times
You shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really, really ought to know
Those one-track minds
That took you for a working boy
Kiss them goodbye
You shouldn't have to jump for joy
You shouldn't have to shout for joy
Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you, come on
They gave you life
And in return you gave them hell
As cold as ice
I hope we live to tell the tale
I hope we live to tell the tale
Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you, come on
Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you, come on
Shout, shout, let it all out (let it all out)
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you, so come on
And when you've taken down your guard
If I could change your mind
I'd really love to break your heart
I'd really love to break your heart
Shout, shout, let it all out (break your heart)
These are the things I can do without (I'd really love to break your heart)
Come on
I'm talking to you, come on
Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you, so come on
Shout, shout, let it all out (they really, really ought to know)
These are the things I can do without (they really, really ought to know)
Come on
I'm talking to you, so come on (they really, really ought to know)
Shout, shout, let it all out (break your heart)
These are the things I can do without (I'd really love to break your heart)
Come on
I'm talking to you, come on
Shout, shout, let it all out
These are the things I can do without
2. The Working Hour
These things
That I've
Been told
Can rearrange
My world
My doubt
In time
But inside out
This is the working hour
We are paid by those who learn by our mistakes
This day
And age
For all
And not for one
All lies
And secrets
Put on
Put on and on
This is the working hour
We are paid by those who learn by our mistakes
Fear is such a vicious thing
It wraps me up in chains
Find out
Find out
What this fear is about
Find out
Find out
What this fear is about
3. Everybody Wants to Rule the World
Welcome to your life
There's no turning back
Even while we sleep
We will find you acting on your best behavior
Turn your back on Mother Nature
Everybody wants to rule the world
It's my own design
It's my own remorse
Help me to decide
Help me make the most of freedom and of pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world
There's a room where the light won't find you
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
When they do, I'll be right behind you
So glad we've almost made it
So sad they had to fade it
Everybody wants to rule the world
I can't stand this indecision
Married with a lack of vision
Everybody wants to rule the world
Say that you'll never, never, never, never need it
One headline, why believe it?
Everybody wants to rule the world
All for freedom and for pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world
4. Mothers Talk
My features form with a change in the weather
Weekend
(We can work it out)
My features form with a change in the weather
Weekend
(We can work it out)
When the wind blows
When the mothers talk
When the wind blows
When the wind blows
When the mothers talk
When the wind blows
(We can work it out)
It's not that you're not good enough
It's just that we can make you better
Given that you pay the price
We can keep you young and tender
Following the footsteps of a funeral pyre
You were paid not to listen
Now your house is on fire
Wake me up when things get started
When everything starts to happen
My features form with a change in the weather
Weekend
(We can work it out)
My features form with a change in the weather
Weekend
(We can work it out)
When the wind blows
(When the wind blows)
When the mothers talk
(When the mothers talk)
When the wind blows
When the wind blows
(When the wind blows)
When the mothers talk
(When the mothers talk)
When the wind blows
(We can
Only we can work it out)
Some of us are horrified
Others never talk about it
But when the weather starts to burn
Then you'll know that you're in trouble
Follow in the footsteps of a soldier girl
It is time to put your clothes on and to face the world
Don't you feel your luck is changing
When everything starts to happen
Put your head right next to my heart
The beat of the drum is the fear of the dark
My features form with a change in the weather
Weekend
(We can work it out)
My features form with a change in the weather
Better late than never
There's a change in the weather
(We can work it out)
When the wind blows
(When the wind blows)
When the mothers talk
(When the mothers talk)
When the wind blows
When the wind blows
(When the wind blows)
When the mothers talk
(When the mothers talk)
When the wind blows
(We can
Only we can work it out).
5. I Believe
I believe that when the hurting and the pain has gone
We will be strong, oh yes we will be strong
And I believe that if I'm crying while I write these words
Is it absurd or am I being real?
I believe that if you knew just what these tears were for
They would just pour like every drop of rain
That's why I believe it is too late for anyone to believe
I believe that if you thought for a moment, took your time
You would not resign yourself, resign yourself to your fate
And I believe that if it's written in the stars, that's fine
I can't deny that I'm a Virgo too
I believe that if you're bristling while you hear this song
I could be wrong or have I hit a nerve?
That's why I believe it is too late for anyone to believe
I believe that maybe somewhere in the darkness
In the night time, in the storm, in the casino
Casino Spanish eyes
I believe, no I can't believe
That every time you hear a newborn scream
You just can't see the shaping of a life
The shaping of a life
6. Broken
Between the searching and the need to work it out
I stop believing everything will be alright
Broken
We are broken
I'm walking uphill being turned around and round
Secret in motion when my feet are on the ground
Broken
We are broken
In my mind's eye
One little boy anger one little man
Funny how time flies
7. Head Over Heels
I wanted to be with you alone
And talk about the weather
But traditions I can trace against
The child in your face
Won't escape my attention
You keep your distance with a system of touch
And gentle persuasion
I'm lost in admiration, could I need you this much?
Oh, you're wasting my time
You're just, just, just wasting time
Something happens and I'm head over heels
I never find out
'Til I'm head over heels
Something happens and I'm head over heels
Ah, don't take my heart, don't break my heart
Don't, don't, don't throw it away
Throw it away
Throw it away
I made a fire, I'm watching it burn
Yeah, thought of your future
With one foot in the past, now, just how long will it last?
Now, now, now, have you no ambitions? (Mmm, what's the matter with my)
My mother and my brothers used to breathe in clean air
(Nothing ever changes when you're acting your age)
And dreaming I'm a doctor
(Nothing gets done when you feel like a baby)
It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand
(Nothing ever changes when you're acting your age)
Oh, I feel so
Something happens and I'm head over heels
I never find out
'Til I'm head over heels
Something happens and I'm head over heels
Ah, don't take my heart, don't break my heart
Don't, don't, don't throw it away
And this is my four-leaf clover
I'm on the line, one open mind
This is my four-leaf clover
La, la-la-la, la, la la la la la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la-la-la, la, la la la la la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la-la-la, la, la la la la la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la-la-la, la, la la la la la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la-la-la, la, la la la la la
In my mind's eye
La, la, la, la, la, la
One little boy, one little man
La, la-la-la, la, la la la la la
La, la, la, la, la, la
Funny how time flies

Your children lick your wounds
Pilgrim father sailed away
Found a brave new world
