Cheese 04:19
Oh yeah, remember the day very clear, The pain inside me my dear, when they told me you should go. I was so sad, the timing was very bad What would I do, I was so in love with you. Oh cheese, you topped everything From spaghetti bolognese to jacket spuds You had a special place in my toastie But now I must be dairy free. Oh cheese, will you forgive me please If I pass you in the fridge with a tear in my eye. And if you see me choosing something else I don't live you any less, I just have to think of myself Oh cheese, your variety thrills me From stilton, edam, cottage and blue brie And then of course, there's Kikorangi What would I do without my blue (Instrumental) Oh cheese, without you food is so bland I don't think that I can stand to be without your salty taste. Oh cheese, you always went well with wine, With fruit and grapes so devine and you stood proud on a stick. Oh cheese, I'll really miss you But I just can't live with all this pain. Maybe one day we'll get over this And we can be together once again.

Unrequited 04:06
I spot you across a crowded room, the moment so sublime I knew from that very first moment, I needed to make you mine You looked so very inviting, eyes of bright blue fire And building up inside of me was a river of desire. I caught you looking over, your gaze locked into me And there you held that moment for seconds 1, 2, 3 My heart it skipped its rhythm, my pulse it raced away And now I'm left with these feelings, all night and through the day. What can I do I can't get over it I can't make my mouth profess the words, no Never wanted anything more but I'm just not brave enough How can I make you see. And as you came to talk with me, I felt my temperature rise Sending out all the signals and talking with your eyes. I wanted to tell you everything I wanted to say the words But I just let you walk away, I didn't have the nerve. What can I do, I can't get over it I can't make my mouth profess the words, no Never wanted anything more but I'm just not brave enough How can I make you see. Mind and body please stop playing tricks on me I need to get a grip to take control The fear inside me grows and it takes over me. How can I make you see. How can I make you see. How can I make you see.

Deep Thought 05:05
Where does all my time go, Moving fast then moving slow I just smile and sit for a while I lie and look at the sky Millions of stars I wonder why My mind starts to sting with the thoughts that they bring. I don't know Up above the white clouds dance Watching their shapes I'm in a trance Colours and glows shining red blue and gold I don't know And as my thoughts flow free, I think of what might be I sit here and wonder why Being deep in thought Dreams waiting to be caught I daydream quite happily Quite happily I wake in the middle of a dream Things not always as they seem Dreaming or awake thats the chance that I take Where does all my time go Moving fast then moving slow I just smile and sit for a while. I don't know.

Mr Big Man 03:22
All your big claims, hold on to the reigns Coz your mouth is moving to fast Always the best beating all of the rest but You're never quite making the grade You like to be needed, need to tell all these lies You think we believe you, until one of us cries Here we go again World famous in our town and you hold all the crowns In everything that we all do. We can't compete, feeling we aren't complete Oh nothing compares to you. You claimed to join Mensa and have regional acclaim With sports and your music oh but where is your fame. Here we go again You know it best leaving us no contest not allowing a view au contraire You act like a child oh you act all beguiled When you're called to account for your feats I can't bear to listen, no To the shit that you spout I just want to walk away yeah Oh I just want to shout. Here we go again.
