Enjoy yourself, this could be the start of something else
with someone who's just an ordinary fool like you,
an ordinary fool who'll take you back to a time when the private lives of humankind had a chance to breathe
ordinary fools in love, the one that you were dreaming of will take you there
Ordinary fool
Ordinary fool
Ordinary fool

Camera Shy

You ask me why I turn away
We both know why
You ask me why I turn away
We both know why
I'm camera shy now baby
camera shy little darlin'
camera shy now baby
camera shy
You ask me why I look so sad
I don't know why
You ask me why I look so sad
I don't know why
I'm camera shy now baby
camera shy little darlin'
camera shy now baby
camera shy
If looks were everything you'd still be fine
If looks were everything I'd change my mind about love
You ask me why I feel this way
I don't know why
You ask me why I feel this way
I don't know why
I'm camera shy now baby
camera shy little darlin'
camera shy now baby
I'm camera shy little darlin'

Kim Wilde & Lemonade

I've changed the locks now anyway
you don't get back inside again
I tore your poster down
I took the longest way around
Two boxers can't fight another round
no heart, no punches, no knockdown
sometimes it's hard to see when she paints her eyelids green
the actress in the song just keeps me hanging on and on
sweet like Kim Wilde and lemonade
sweet like Kim Wilde and lemonade
You'll still have your songs anyway
confused or not, I'm not afraid
don't leave your hair too long
don't taste the sadness on your tongue
sometimes it's hard to see when she paints her eyelids green
the actress in the song just keeps me hanging on and on
sweet like Kim Wilde and lemonade
sweet like Kim Wilde and lemonade
sweet like Kim Wilde and lemonade

In the cold light of Christmas day
you said the way I love you is under the tree
and it's wrapped up in paper left over from the year you stole it from me
In the warm light of open fire
you said this time of year is like walking a wire
you can miss your step and fall into a world of long desire
Don't misunderstand me I know I was out of line
people talk and tell each other stories through the night
until the truth becomes a waste of time
In the blue light of TV nights
you said the movie made you feel sad inside
it's the story of a hopeless girl who can't decide
Every day is Sunday when the Byrds begin to sing
you could lead me anywhere with promises of silver
and a chance to wear your wedding ring
In the cold light of Christmas day
you said the way I love you is under the tree
and it's not what you wanted to hear or what you thought the reason would be
Don't misunderstand me I know I was out of line
people talk and tell each other stories through the night
until you're just another waste of time

When To Say No
03:05

So bored and appalled banging my head against the wall
If that's someone at the door tell them that I went to live abroad
doesn't matter what you say, they'll believe it anyway
'cos people always do the opposite of what you wanna do
Don't tell me that I don't know when to say no
Don't tell me that I don't know when to say no
Something's wrong tonight, did I ever do anything right?
other people living lives, I'd give my right arm for a slice of the cake
on the side, sugar coat all of your lies with dead bodies and flies
What could have been better than this?
Don't tell me that I don't know when to say no
Don't tell me that I don't know when to say no
Nice to know you anyway, more good than bad days
Like the time when you said I haven't met anyone yet
Don't tell me that I don't know when to say no
Don't tell me that I don't know when to say no
Don't tell me that I don't know when to say no
Don't tell me that I don't know when to say no
