have you ever had trouble with your
automobile?
have you ever had to
push push push push?.

weekends licking and polishing the beep-
beeps into
shape and then its proudly up the M. 1. M. 2.

babies
sit and rot at home

Kick
Adam Ant.

see a nation on its knees
and its heritage dead
See a nation needing 'Civilization'
like a hole in the head.

One Race! Today! One Chant! Kick.

so now you're trying it on me
but I'm aware of the plan
to save the 'man' you have to kill the 'indian'
by simply shaking his hand.

One Race! Today! One Chant! Kick.

Digital Tenderness
Adam Ant.

why does this feeling of togetherness
always scare me away?
why do the feelings that I have for you
have to become a word?.

don't say you "love" me-oh no
don't ask that from me-oh no no.

that alphabet you call love
that alphabet you call love
that alphabet you call love
is just a digital tenderness
tenderness.

here is the start for so many broken people
all with a hard luck story
and a sad sad tale.

don't say you love me-oh no
don't ask that from me-oh no no.

that alphabet you call love
that alphabet you call love
that alphabet you call love
is just a digital tenderness
tenderness.

sometimes
I need to be by myself
I need to be by your side
I need
sometimes
I need the company of art
I ned the company of friends
I need you.

and my heart is stronger
than a four-letter-long word.

searching the eyes of so many broken
people
whose cowardice proved much too strong
for vice
don't say you "love" me..
oh no
don't ask that from me
no no no.

that alphabet you call "love"
that alphabet you call "love".

Nine Plan Failed
Adam Ant.

after nine years in the army
they took away his brain
they tattooed "defect" on his brow
and signed him up again.

he killed ten thousand germans
a hundred japanese
a family of hindus
and a lot of portugese
nine plan failed.

I could never see the point
of showing them you're boss
when they drag you through the city streets
and naiI you to a cross.

they took him to the office
they strapped him to the bed
they fastened lots of pretty wires
securely to his head
they wheeled him down the corridor
upon a metal trolley
now he wears big spectacles
and he sings like Buddy Holly
nine plan failed.

I could never see the point
of showing them you're boss
when they drag you through the city streets
and nail you to a cross.

the world declared its armistice
and took away his guns
and now he satisfies himself
on p***-weak tea and buns
on p***-weak tea and buns
oh oh
at the disco
Rome is very pretty
and Rome is very grand
but the Pope lost his four fingers
when they gave this boy his hand to kiss
when they gave this boy his hand to kiss
it wasn't funny no.

he wasn't very good at school
his highest grade was C
but he believed the managers
when they said:-
"you leave it all to me"
they gave him suits from Saville Row
the quality so fine
so now he sits in the desert wastes
just waiting for a sign
nine plan failed.

Family Of Noise
Adam Ant.

a lot of people in this great big-world
say "love everybody"
a lot of people busy busy busy busy busy
being very modern.

chorus:
but the family of noise is here
and it's come to save everybody
the family of noise is here
and it's come to save you and me
it goes:.

the family of noise is here
and it's come to save everybody
the family of noise is here
and it's come to save you and me.

a lot of people in the ancient world
they loved only quiet
and then along came the machine
and a new direction.

the family of noise is here
and it's come to save everybody
the family of noise is here
and it's come to save you and me
it goes:.

in the morning
last thing at night
in the darkness
standing in the light.

a lot of people in this great big world
just searching for the "pure" sound
they're just looking to the machine
they don't listen to the noise.

the family of noise is here
and it's come to save you and me.

Tabletalk
Adam Ant.

don't like your stare
don't like the arm in the air
your style is so brash
and that silly moustache.

the evil I see

sends bad vibrations through me
and oh what a square
with your diagonal hair.

it was, tabletalk.

l said to gilly
'how do you do tabletalk? '
'how do you do tabletalk? '
and this is what she said;
'love love love love.. '.

the love of his life
too close to become a wife
and the death of this girl
came close to saving the world.

Cleopatra did ten thousand in her Iifetime

Cleopatra gave a service with a smile

Centurions.

Never Trust A Man (With Egg On His Face)
Adam Ant.

A man and a woman walking down the
street
with a son and a daughter it was oh so sweet
when Mummy turned to Daddy and she
said:
'my dear, write out your will the end is near'
then she pulled out the gun
I saw the sparks
messed up the suit that he'd bought from
Marks
because.

she'd heard the voices from Outer Space
she'd heard the voices from Outer Space
she'd heard the voices from Outer Space
saying, 'Never trust a man with egg on his
face'
three months later Mrs B stands
a smile on her face, blood on her hands
the kiddies got scared and have run to bed
the headlines in the papers said that:
'she was the victim of an awful plan.
Announced through the mouthpiece of a
little green man
she'd heard the voices from Outer Space
saying:
'never trust a man with egg on his face'.

la-la.

The Idea
Adam Ant.

I went to the zoo
to look at the animals
the first thing I saw
was a wallfull of handclaps
some wearing green hats
and all sucking chocky bars
so I went and looked at
the three horned chameleon.

the idea.

he walked up and down
just trying to get close to me
a split little hand
scratching at the glass
I looked at the snakes
and I looked at the crocodiles
you'd better
show me the man
who made all of this.

the idea.

I could be religious if..
you didn't have to kneel down
I could be religious if..
a god would say "hello"
I could be religious if..
an angel touched my shoulder
I could be religious if..
they set the hymns to disco
(like this).

holy holy holy
lord god almighty
god in three persons
beloved trinity.

holy holy holy
all the saints adore thee
christ in three persons
belovedtrinity.

the idea.
