There's maybe a way I can tell you
'Cos with everyday things continue
To get more compromised,
So who will fantasise
A new generation politicised
When things are done in our own name
Are we as much to blame?
Now it's become clear to me,
But only lately
And the ground is removed underneath
Shout it from the brink,
You're louder than you think
[Chorus:]
21st century kid, you're surrounded by illusion and confusion,
So maybe if you're holding out for the truth now,
Could it be the greatest weapon?
Could it be the greatest weapon?
Your weapon
Nothing is certain except a memory
And that's soon washed away by a low sea
Now sit yourself down my one
And see what you become,
Ignoring a smouldering gun
The white dove's flown
D'ya think we're on our own?
[Chorus:]
21st century kid, you're surrounded by illusion and confusion.
So maybe if you're holding out for the truth now,
Could it be the greatest weapon?
21st century kid, you're surrounded by illusion and confusion.
So maybe if you're holding out for the truth now,
Could it be the greatest weapon?
Could it be the greatest weapon?
Your weapon
I'm Glad There Is You lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Said I many times, love is illusion,
A feeling result of confusion
With knowing smile and blas© sigh,
A cynical so and so, am I.
I feel so sure, so positive,
So utterly unchangeably certain
Though I never was aware of loving you
'til suddenly I realised there was love in you and oh...
[Chorus:]
In this world of ordinary people...
Extraordinary people,
I'm glad there is you.
In this world of overrated pleasures
And underrated treasures,
I'm glad there is you.
I live to love,
I love to live with you beside me
This role, so new
I'll muddle through with you
If you'll guide me through.
In this world where many, many play at love
And hardly any stay in love,
I'm glad there is you.
More than ever, I'm glad there is you.
Said I many times, love is illusion...
A feeling result of confusion
With knowing smile and blas© sigh,
A cynical so and so, am I.
I feel so sure, so positive,
So utterly unchangeably certain
Though I never was aware of loving you
'til suddenly I realised there was love in you and oh...
[Chorus:]
In this world of ordinary people...
Extraordinary people,
I'm glad there is you.
In this world of overrated pleasures
And underrated treasures,
I'm glad there is you.
I live to love,
I love to live with you beside me
This role, so new
I'll muddle through with you
If you'll guide me through.
In this world where many, many play at love
And hardly any stay in love,
I'm glad there is you.
More than ever, I'm glad there is you.
Said I many times, love is illusion...
Oh God lyrics - Jamie Cullum
I know it's been a while since I have talked to you
But maybe you're the one who makes the winds blow
We're looking at the stars without explanation
We contemplate as kings and simple men on trial
Our little world's fragile
Oh God can you tell us when it's going to stop
Maybe it's not just down to you
Oh God can we win back what we have lost
So who's the last resort... Oh God
Tumbling towards unclear destinations
Do they wash away the blame,
The wind and the searing rains
As our powers interchange
Oh God can you tell us when it's going to stop
Maybe it's not just down to you
Oh God can we win back what we have lost
So who's the last resort... oh God
[Sax intro]
Oh God can you tell us when it's going to stop
Maybe it's not just down to you
Oh God can we win back what we have lost
So who's the last resort
But maybe you're the one who makes the winds blow
We're looking at the stars without explanation
We contemplate as kings and simple men on trial
Our little world's fragile
Oh God can you tell us when it's going to stop
Maybe it's not just down to you
Oh God can we win back what we have lost
So who's the last resort... Oh God
Tumbling towards unclear destinations
Do they wash away the blame,
The wind and the searing rains
As our powers interchange
Oh God can you tell us when it's going to stop
Maybe it's not just down to you
Oh God can we win back what we have lost
So who's the last resort... oh God
[Sax intro]
Oh God can you tell us when it's going to stop
Maybe it's not just down to you
Oh God can we win back what we have lost
So who's the last resort
Catch The Sun lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Every day it comes to this
Catch the things you might have missed
You say, get back to yesterday
I ain't ever going back
Back to the place that I can't stand
But I miss the way you lie
I'm always misunderstood
Pulled apart and ripped in two
But I miss the way you lie
Catch the sun, before it's gone
Here it comes, up in smoke and gone
Catch the sun, it never comes
Cry in the sand, lost in the fire
I never really understood
Why I didn't feel so good
But I miss the way you lie
I've always been up and down
Never wanted to hit the ground
But I miss the way you lie
Catch the sun, before it's gone
Here it comes, up in smoke and gone
Catch the sun, it never comes
Cry in the sand, lost in the fire
Catch the things you might have missed
You say, get back to yesterday
I ain't ever going back
Back to the place that I can't stand
But I miss the way you lie
I'm always misunderstood
Pulled apart and ripped in two
But I miss the way you lie
Catch the sun, before it's gone
Here it comes, up in smoke and gone
Catch the sun, it never comes
Cry in the sand, lost in the fire
I never really understood
Why I didn't feel so good
But I miss the way you lie
I've always been up and down
Never wanted to hit the ground
But I miss the way you lie
Catch the sun, before it's gone
Here it comes, up in smoke and gone
Catch the sun, it never comes
Cry in the sand, lost in the fire
7 Days To Change Your Life lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Just one local call and you'll see
A happy path through life not for free
A little bit fat you can't get a girl
Short on cash I'll change your world
The only way now is straight up
Your deepest despair I'll make it stop
Just 19.95 all major credit cards
And you'll stay alive and you'll go far
In just seven short days
You'll change your life
All of your innocence found
You'll even lose a few pounds
See yourself making a mint
Quality time with your kids
Send me your money and I'll change your life
I know sometimes your life is a bitch
So come purchase my easy fix
I've been there myself sad fat and bald
But soon with my help, you'll have it all
Ill build you back up for the fight
You'll be so wound up your stomachs tight
Your the laugh of the party you'll get yourself laid
Surely you'll trust me once I've been paid
In just seven short days
You'll change your life
All of your innocence found
You'll even lose a few pounds
See yourself making a mint
Quality time with your kids
Send me your money and I'll change your life
Change
So many years ago I was so low and lonely and depressed
I hadn't left my flat in weeks and never even bothered getting dressed
And I was smoking weed and I was in a mess and that's when it happened
So I opened up the blinds to let the light in on my sorry life
I dreamed about success and money muscles women cars
And even wives and they would always attend to my every need
So do you see what you can be, baby when you're with me?
In just seven short days
You'll change your life
All of your innocence found
You'll even lose a few pounds
See yourself making a mint
Quality time with your kids
Send me your money and I'll change your life
A happy path through life not for free
A little bit fat you can't get a girl
Short on cash I'll change your world
The only way now is straight up
Your deepest despair I'll make it stop
Just 19.95 all major credit cards
And you'll stay alive and you'll go far
In just seven short days
You'll change your life
All of your innocence found
You'll even lose a few pounds

Our Day Will Come lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Our day will come
And we'll have everything.
We'll share the joy
Falling in love can bring.
No one can tell me
That I'm too young to know
Cause I love you so
And you love me, love me.
Our day will come
If we just wait a while.
No tears for us
Think love and wear a smile.
And our dreams are meant to be
Because we'll always stay
In love this way
Our day will come.
[Piano Solo]
Our day will come
If we just wait a while.
And no tears for us
Think love and wear a smile.
And our dreams are meant to be
Because we'll always stay
In love this way.
Our day, our day, oh daaaaay, will come.
And we'll have everything.
We'll share the joy
Falling in love can bring.
No one can tell me
That I'm too young to know
Cause I love you so
And you love me, love me.
Our day will come
If we just wait a while.
No tears for us
Think love and wear a smile.
And our dreams are meant to be
Because we'll always stay
In love this way
Our day will come.
[Piano Solo]
Our day will come
If we just wait a while.
And no tears for us
Think love and wear a smile.
And our dreams are meant to be
Because we'll always stay
In love this way.
Our day, our day, oh daaaaay, will come.
Back To The Ground lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Lately, i've let myself go
I've been screening the calls
From my friends to my foes
Although I've been weak
Far for so very long
I gotta get myself
I gotta get myself
I gotta get myself
Back to the ground
Sultry siren messed with my song
I'm gonna send her back
To where she belongs
I keep my enemies
Much, much, much too close
I gotta get myself
I gotta get myself
I gotta get myself
Back to the ground
When you're attracted to the danger
And tasting every flavour
Then bring it on and bleed yourself dry
Reality is twisted
Your mind's getting shoplifted
Is there underneath an innocent guy?
[Instrumental]
So clearly, I've let myself go
So does admission take my sins to a new low?
And when you're way down there
You'll find all those old friends
You used to know
And they're gonna help ya
Get yourself back to the ground
I've been screening the calls
From my friends to my foes
Although I've been weak
Far for so very long
I gotta get myself
I gotta get myself
I gotta get myself
Back to the ground
Sultry siren messed with my song
I'm gonna send her back
To where she belongs
I keep my enemies
Much, much, much too close
I gotta get myself
I gotta get myself
I gotta get myself
Back to the ground
When you're attracted to the danger
And tasting every flavour
Then bring it on and bleed yourself dry
Reality is twisted
Your mind's getting shoplifted
Is there underneath an innocent guy?
[Instrumental]
So clearly, I've let myself go
So does admission take my sins to a new low?
And when you're way down there
You'll find all those old friends
You used to know
And they're gonna help ya
Get yourself back to the ground
Fascinating Rhythm lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Got a little rhythm, a rhythm a rhythm
That pitter pats through my brain
So darn persistent, the day isn't distant
When it'll drive me insane
Comes in the morning
Without any warning
And hangs around all day
I have to sneak up to it, some day I'll speak up to it
And hope it listens when I say...
Fascinating rhythm
You got me on the go
Fascinating Rhythm, I'm all a quiver
What a mess you're making
The neighbours want to know
Why I'm always shaking
Just like my grandmother
Each morning I get up with the sun
To find at night no work has been done...
I know that once it didn't matter
But now you doing wrong
When you start to patter, I'm so unhappy
Won't you take a day off
Decide to run along
Somewhere far away off
And make it snappy
Oh how I long to be
The man I used to be
Fascinating Rhythm
Why don't you stop picking on me
That pitter pats through my brain
So darn persistent, the day isn't distant
When it'll drive me insane
Comes in the morning
Without any warning
And hangs around all day
I have to sneak up to it, some day I'll speak up to it
And hope it listens when I say...
Fascinating rhythm
You got me on the go
Fascinating Rhythm, I'm all a quiver
What a mess you're making
The neighbours want to know
Why I'm always shaking
Just like my grandmother
Each morning I get up with the sun
To find at night no work has been done...
I know that once it didn't matter
But now you doing wrong
When you start to patter, I'm so unhappy
Won't you take a day off
Decide to run along
Somewhere far away off
And make it snappy
Oh how I long to be
The man I used to be
Fascinating Rhythm
Why don't you stop picking on me
My Yard lyrics - Jamie Cullum
So hail a taxi cab and come around here
And I will meet you right outside.
I got some DVDs and a couple of beers,
If you want to,
We can stay up all night.
It's nothing fancy, just a little couch and me
And conversation for your mind.
So let's explore all the possibilities
Of the things that we both talked about last time.
[chorus:]
Take a trip to my yard
Don't you know the grass is greener on the other side?
Take a trip to my yard
Don't you know the love that you've been Dreaming of is mine?
I'll be your neighbour at the other end of town
And the benefits you soon will find.
So let's enjoy the fact that we're on our own
And we will answer to nobody else this time.
Tonight might be nothing but the moon and me
Any time that we take the script and flip it baby
Take a trip to my yard
[chorus:]
Take a trip to my yard
Don't you know the grass is greener on the otherside?
Take a trip to my yard
Don't you know the love that you've been dreaming of is mine?
And I will meet you right outside.
I got some DVDs and a couple of beers,
If you want to,
We can stay up all night.
It's nothing fancy, just a little couch and me
And conversation for your mind.
So let's explore all the possibilities
Of the things that we both talked about last time.
[chorus:]
Take a trip to my yard
Don't you know the grass is greener on the other side?
Take a trip to my yard
Don't you know the love that you've been Dreaming of is mine?
I'll be your neighbour at the other end of town
And the benefits you soon will find.
So let's enjoy the fact that we're on our own
And we will answer to nobody else this time.
Tonight might be nothing but the moon and me
Any time that we take the script and flip it baby
Take a trip to my yard
[chorus:]
Take a trip to my yard
Don't you know the grass is greener on the otherside?
Take a trip to my yard
Don't you know the love that you've been dreaming of is mine?
What A Difference A Day Made lyrics - Jamie Cullum
What a difference a day made, twenty four little hours
Brought the sun and the flowers where there use to be rain
My yesterday was blue dear
Today I'm a part of you dear
My lonely nights are through dear
Since you said you were mine
Oh, what a difference a day made
There's a rainbow before me
Skies above can't be stormy since that moment of bliss
That thrilling kiss
It's heaven when you find romance on your menu
What a difference a day made
And the difference is you, is you
My yesterday was blue dear
Still I'm a part of you dear
My lonely nights are through dear
Since you said you were mine
Oh, what a difference a day made
There's a rainbow before me
Skies above can't be stormy since that moment of bliss
That thrilling kiss
It's heaven when you find romance on your menu
What a difference a day made
And the difference is you, is you, is you
Brought the sun and the flowers where there use to be rain
My yesterday was blue dear
Today I'm a part of you dear
My lonely nights are through dear
Since you said you were mine
Oh, what a difference a day made
There's a rainbow before me
Skies above can't be stormy since that moment of bliss
That thrilling kiss
It's heaven when you find romance on your menu
What a difference a day made
And the difference is you, is you
My yesterday was blue dear
Still I'm a part of you dear
My lonely nights are through dear
Since you said you were mine
Oh, what a difference a day made
There's a rainbow before me
Skies above can't be stormy since that moment of bliss
That thrilling kiss
It's heaven when you find romance on your menu
What a difference a day made
And the difference is you, is you, is you
These Are The Days lyrics - Jamie Cullum
These are the days that I've been missing
Give me the taste give me the joy of summer wine
These are the days that bring new meaning
I feel the stillness of the sun and I feel fine
Sometimes when the nights are closing early
I remember you and I start to smile
Even though now you don't want to know me
I get on by, and I go the extra mile
These are the times of love and meaning
Ice of the heart has melted away and found the light
These are the days of endless dreaming
Troubles of life are floating away like a bird in flight
These are the days
These are the days
These are the days
I've thought you said that love would last forever
Leave and that the tears would end for good
I told you that we get through any weather
Maybe that didn't work out
But we did the best we could
These are the days that I've been missing
Give me the taste give me the joy of summer wine
These are the days that bring new meaning
I feel the stillness of the sun and I feel fine
Give me the taste give me the joy of summer wine
These are the days that bring new meaning
I feel the stillness of the sun and I feel fine
Sometimes when the nights are closing early
I remember you and I start to smile
Even though now you don't want to know me
I get on by, and I go the extra mile
These are the times of love and meaning
Ice of the heart has melted away and found the light
These are the days of endless dreaming
Troubles of life are floating away like a bird in flight
These are the days
These are the days
These are the days
I've thought you said that love would last forever
Leave and that the tears would end for good
I told you that we get through any weather
Maybe that didn't work out
But we did the best we could
These are the days that I've been missing
Give me the taste give me the joy of summer wine
These are the days that bring new meaning
I feel the stillness of the sun and I feel fine
Singing In The Rain lyrics - Jamie Cullum
I'm singing in the rain
Just singing in the rain
What a glorious feeling
I'm happy again
I'm laughing at clouds
So dark up above
The sun's in my heart
And I'm ready for love
For love
Let the stormy clouds chase
Everyone from the place
Come on with the rain
I've a smile on my face
I'll walk down the lane
With a happy refrain
Singing, singing in the rain
In the rain.
La...
I'm singing in the rain
Just singing in the rain
What a glorious feeling
I'm happy again
I walk down the lane
With a happy refrain
I'm singing, singing in the rain
In the rain
In the rain
Just singing in the rain
What a glorious feeling
I'm happy again
I'm laughing at clouds
So dark up above
The sun's in my heart
And I'm ready for love
For love
Let the stormy clouds chase
Everyone from the place
Come on with the rain
I've a smile on my face
I'll walk down the lane
With a happy refrain
Singing, singing in the rain
In the rain.
La...
I'm singing in the rain
Just singing in the rain
What a glorious feeling
I'm happy again
I walk down the lane
With a happy refrain
I'm singing, singing in the rain
In the rain
In the rain
Twentysomething lyrics - Jamie Cullum
After years of expensive education
A car full of books and anticipation
I'm an expert on Shakespeare and that's a hell of a lot
But the world don't need scholars as much as I thought
Maybe I'll go traveling for a year
Finding myself, or start a career
Could work the poor, though I'm hungry for fame
We all seem so different but we're just the same
Maybe I'll go to the gym, so I don't get fat
Aren't things more easy, with a tight six pack
Who knows the answers, who do you trust
I can't even separate love from lust
Maybe I'll move back home and pay off my loans
Working nine to five, answering phones
But don't make me live for Friday nights
Drinking eight pints and getting in fights
Maybe I'll just fall in love
That could solve it all
Philosophers say that that's enough
There surely must be more
Love ain't the answer, nor is work
The truth eludes me so much it hurts
But I'm still having fun and I guess that's the key
I'm a twentysomething and I'll keep being me
A car full of books and anticipation
I'm an expert on Shakespeare and that's a hell of a lot
But the world don't need scholars as much as I thought
Maybe I'll go traveling for a year
Finding myself, or start a career
Could work the poor, though I'm hungry for fame
We all seem so different but we're just the same
Maybe I'll go to the gym, so I don't get fat
Aren't things more easy, with a tight six pack
Who knows the answers, who do you trust
I can't even separate love from lust
Maybe I'll move back home and pay off my loans
Working nine to five, answering phones
But don't make me live for Friday nights
Drinking eight pints and getting in fights
Maybe I'll just fall in love
That could solve it all
Philosophers say that that's enough
There surely must be more
Love ain't the answer, nor is work
The truth eludes me so much it hurts
But I'm still having fun and I guess that's the key
I'm a twentysomething and I'll keep being me
But For Now lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Sure I know you'd like to have me
Talk about my future
And a million words or so to fill you in about my past
Have I sisters or a brother
When's my birthday how's my mother
Well my dear in time I'll answer all those things you ask
But for now I'll just say I love you
Nothing more seems important somehow
And tomorrow can wait come whatever
Let me love you forever but right now
Right now
Some fine day when we go walking
We'll take time for idle talking
Sharing every feeling as we watch each other smile
I'll hold your hand you'll hold my hand
We'll say things we never had planned
Then we'll get to know each other in a little while
But for now let me say I love you
Later on there'll be time for so much more
But for now meaning now and forever
Let me kiss you my darling then once more
Once more
But for now let me say I love you
Later on I must know much more of you
But for now here and now how I love you
As you are in my arms I love you
I love you
I love you
Talk about my future
And a million words or so to fill you in about my past
Have I sisters or a brother
When's my birthday how's my mother
Well my dear in time I'll answer all those things you ask
But for now I'll just say I love you
Nothing more seems important somehow
And tomorrow can wait come whatever
Let me love you forever but right now
Right now
Some fine day when we go walking
We'll take time for idle talking
Sharing every feeling as we watch each other smile
I'll hold your hand you'll hold my hand
We'll say things we never had planned
Then we'll get to know each other in a little while
But for now let me say I love you
Later on there'll be time for so much more
But for now meaning now and forever
Let me kiss you my darling then once more
Once more
But for now let me say I love you
Later on I must know much more of you
But for now here and now how I love you
As you are in my arms I love you
I love you
I love you
Old Devil Moon lyrics - Jamie Cullum
I looked at you and suddenly
Something in your eyes I see
Soon begins bewitching me
I looked at you and suddenly
Something in your eyes I see
Soon begins bewitching me
It's that old devil moon
That you stole from the sky
It's that old devil moon in your eyes
You and your glance makes this romance too hot to handle
Stars in the night blazin' their light can't hold a candle
To your razzle dazzle
You've got me flyin' high and wide
On a magic carpet ride
Full of butterflies inside
I just wanna cry
Wanna croon
Wanna laugh like a loon
It's that old devil moon in your eyes
Just when I think I'm free as a dove
Old evil moon deep in your eyes
Blinds me with love
I looked at you and suddenly
Something in your eyes I see
Soon begins bewitching me
I looked at you and suddenly
Something in your eyes I see
Soon begins bewitching me
It's that old devil moon
That you stole from the sky
It's that old devil moon in your eyes
You and your glance makes this romance too hot to handle
Stars in the night blazin' their light can't hold a candle
To your razzle dazzle
You've got me flyin' high and wide
On a magic carpet ride
Full of butterflies inside
I just wanna cry
Wanna croon
Wanna laugh like a loon
It's that old devil moon in your eyes
Just when I think I'm free as a dove
Old evil moon deep in your eyes
Blinds me with love
Something in your eyes I see
Soon begins bewitching me
I looked at you and suddenly
Something in your eyes I see
Soon begins bewitching me
It's that old devil moon
That you stole from the sky
It's that old devil moon in your eyes
You and your glance makes this romance too hot to handle
Stars in the night blazin' their light can't hold a candle
To your razzle dazzle
You've got me flyin' high and wide
On a magic carpet ride
Full of butterflies inside
I just wanna cry
Wanna croon
Wanna laugh like a loon
It's that old devil moon in your eyes
Just when I think I'm free as a dove
Old evil moon deep in your eyes
Blinds me with love
I looked at you and suddenly
Something in your eyes I see
Soon begins bewitching me
I looked at you and suddenly
Something in your eyes I see
Soon begins bewitching me
It's that old devil moon
That you stole from the sky
It's that old devil moon in your eyes
You and your glance makes this romance too hot to handle
Stars in the night blazin' their light can't hold a candle
To your razzle dazzle
You've got me flyin' high and wide
On a magic carpet ride
Full of butterflies inside
I just wanna cry
Wanna croon
Wanna laugh like a loon
It's that old devil moon in your eyes
Just when I think I'm free as a dove
Old evil moon deep in your eyes
Blinds me with love
I Could Have Danced All Night lyrics - Jamie Cullum
I could have danced all night
I could have danced all night
And still have begged for more
I could have spread my wings
And done a thousand things
I'd never ever done before
I'll never know what made it so exciting
But all at once my heart took flight
I only know when she began to dance with me
I could have danced, danced, danced, danced, danced, danced
Bed? I couldn't go to bed
My head's too light to try to settle down
Sleep? I couldn't sleep tonight
Not for all the jewels in the crown!
I'll never know what made it so exciting
But all at once my heart took flight
I only know when she began to dance with me
I could have danced, danced, danced, danced all night
I could have danced all night
And still have begged for more
I could have spread my wings
And done a thousand things
I'd never ever done before
I'll never know what made it so exciting
But all at once my heart took flight
I only know when she began to dance with me
I could have danced, danced, danced, danced, danced, danced
Bed? I couldn't go to bed
My head's too light to try to settle down
Sleep? I couldn't sleep tonight
Not for all the jewels in the crown!
I'll never know what made it so exciting
But all at once my heart took flight
I only know when she began to dance with me
I could have danced, danced, danced, danced all night
Blame It On My Youth lyrics - Jamie Cullum
If, I expected love, when first we kissed, blame it on my youth
If only just for you, I did exist, blame it on my youth
I believed in everything
Like a child of three
You meant more than anything
You meant all the world to me
If, you were on my mind, all night and day, blame it on my youth
If, I forgot to eat, and sleep and pray, blame it on my youth
If I cried a little bit, when first I learned the truth
Don't blame it on my heart, blame it on my youth
If only just for you, I did exist, blame it on my youth
I believed in everything
Like a child of three
You meant more than anything
You meant all the world to me
If, you were on my mind, all night and day, blame it on my youth
If, I forgot to eat, and sleep and pray, blame it on my youth
If I cried a little bit, when first I learned the truth
Don't blame it on my heart, blame it on my youth
I Get A Kick Out Of You lyrics - Jamie Cullum
I get no kick from champagne
Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all
So tell me why should it be true
That I get a kick out of you
Some get their kicks from cocaine
I'm sure that if I took even one sniff
That would bore me terrifically too
That I get a kick out of you
I get a kick every time I see you standing there before me
I get a kick though it's clear to me that you obviously do not adore me
I get no kick in a plane
Flying too high with some gal in the sky
Is my idea of nothing to do
But I get a kick out of you
I get no kick from champagne
Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all
So tell me why should it be true
That I get a kick out of you
Some get their kicks from cocaine
I'm sure that if I took even one sniff
That would bore me terrifically too
That I get a kick out of you
I get a kick every time I see you standing there before me
I get a kick though it's clear to me that you obviously do not adore me
I get no kick in a plane
Flying too high with some gal in the sky
Is my idea of nothing to do
But I get a kick
She gives me the boot
I get a kick out of you
Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all
So tell me why should it be true
That I get a kick out of you
Some get their kicks from cocaine
I'm sure that if I took even one sniff
That would bore me terrifically too
That I get a kick out of you
I get a kick every time I see you standing there before me
I get a kick though it's clear to me that you obviously do not adore me
I get no kick in a plane
Flying too high with some gal in the sky
Is my idea of nothing to do
But I get a kick out of you
I get no kick from champagne
Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all
So tell me why should it be true
That I get a kick out of you
Some get their kicks from cocaine
I'm sure that if I took even one sniff
That would bore me terrifically too
That I get a kick out of you
I get a kick every time I see you standing there before me
I get a kick though it's clear to me that you obviously do not adore me
I get no kick in a plane
Flying too high with some gal in the sky
Is my idea of nothing to do
But I get a kick
She gives me the boot
I get a kick out of you
All At Sea lyrics - Jamie Cullum
I'm all at sea
Where no-one can bother me
Forgot my roots
If only for a day
Just me and my thoughts sailing far away
Like a warm drink it seeps into my soul
Please just leave me right here on my own
Later on you could spend some time with me
If you want to
All at sea
I'm all at sea
Where no-one can bother me
I sleep by myself
I drink on my own
Don't speak to nobody
I gave away my phone
Like a warm drink it seeps into my soul
Please just leave me right here on my own
Later on you could spend some time with me
If you want to
All at sea
Now I need you more than ever, I need you more than ever, now
You don't need it every day
But sometimes don't you just crave
To disappear within your mind
You never know what you might find
So come and spend some time with me
We will spend it all at sea
Like a warm drink it seeps into my soul
Please just leave me right here on my own
Later on you could spend some time with me
If you want to
All at sea
Where no-one can bother me
Forgot my roots
If only for a day
Just me and my thoughts sailing far away
Like a warm drink it seeps into my soul
Please just leave me right here on my own
Later on you could spend some time with me
If you want to
All at sea
I'm all at sea
Where no-one can bother me
I sleep by myself
I drink on my own
Don't speak to nobody
I gave away my phone
Like a warm drink it seeps into my soul
Please just leave me right here on my own
Later on you could spend some time with me
If you want to
All at sea
Now I need you more than ever, I need you more than ever, now
You don't need it every day
But sometimes don't you just crave
To disappear within your mind
You never know what you might find
So come and spend some time with me
We will spend it all at sea
Like a warm drink it seeps into my soul
Please just leave me right here on my own
Later on you could spend some time with me
If you want to
All at sea
Wind Cries Mary lyrics - Jamie Cullum
After all the jacks are in their boxes,
And the clowns have all gone to bed,
You can hear happiness staggering on down the street,
Footprints dress in red.
And the wind whispers Mary.
A broom is drearily sweeping
Up the broken pieces of yesterday's life.
Somewhere a Queen is weeping,
Somewhere a King has no wife.
And the wind cries Mary.
The traffic lights turn blue tomorrow
Shine their emptiness down on my bed
The tiny island sags downstream
'Cause the life that they lived is dead.
And the wind screams Mary.
Oh oh yeah
Will the wind ever remember
The names it has blown in the past
With it's crutch, it's old age and it's wisdom
It whispers, "No, this will be the last."
And the wind cries Mary.
And the clowns have all gone to bed,
You can hear happiness staggering on down the street,
Footprints dress in red.
And the wind whispers Mary.
A broom is drearily sweeping
Up the broken pieces of yesterday's life.
Somewhere a Queen is weeping,
Somewhere a King has no wife.
And the wind cries Mary.
The traffic lights turn blue tomorrow
Shine their emptiness down on my bed
The tiny island sags downstream
'Cause the life that they lived is dead.
And the wind screams Mary.
Oh oh yeah
Will the wind ever remember
The names it has blown in the past
With it's crutch, it's old age and it's wisdom
It whispers, "No, this will be the last."
And the wind cries Mary.
Lover, You Should Have Come Over lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Looking out the door I see the rain fall upon the funeral mourners
Parading in a wake of sad relations as their shoes fill up with water
Maybe I'm too young to keep good love from going wrong
But tonight you're on my mind so you never know
I'm broken down and hungry for your love with no way to feed it
Where are you tonight, you know how much I need it
Too young to hold on and too old to break free and run
Sometimes a man, he gets carried away, when he feels like he should be having his fun
And he's much too blind to see the damage he's done
Cause sometimes a man must awake to find that really he has no one
So I'll wait for you and I'll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return
Oh will I ever learn
Oh lover, you should've come over
'Cause it's not too late
Lonely is the room, the bed is made, the open window lets the rain in
Burning in the corner is the only one who dreams he had you with him
My body turns and yearns for a sleep that will never come
Sometimes a man, he gets carried away, when he feels like he should be having his fun
And he's much too blind to see the damage he's done
Cause sometimes a man must awake to find that really he has no one
So I'll wait for you and I'll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return
Oh will I ever learn
Oh lover, you should've come over
'Cause it's not too late
'Cause it's not too late
Parading in a wake of sad relations as their shoes fill up with water
Maybe I'm too young to keep good love from going wrong
But tonight you're on my mind so you never know
I'm broken down and hungry for your love with no way to feed it
Where are you tonight, you know how much I need it
Too young to hold on and too old to break free and run
Sometimes a man, he gets carried away, when he feels like he should be having his fun
And he's much too blind to see the damage he's done
Cause sometimes a man must awake to find that really he has no one
So I'll wait for you and I'll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return
Oh will I ever learn
Oh lover, you should've come over
'Cause it's not too late
Lonely is the room, the bed is made, the open window lets the rain in
Burning in the corner is the only one who dreams he had you with him
My body turns and yearns for a sleep that will never come
Sometimes a man, he gets carried away, when he feels like he should be having his fun
And he's much too blind to see the damage he's done
Cause sometimes a man must awake to find that really he has no one
So I'll wait for you and I'll burn
Will I ever see your sweet return
Oh will I ever learn
Oh lover, you should've come over
'Cause it's not too late
'Cause it's not too late
It's About Time lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Walking down to the water's edge
Where I have been before
If I don't find my love sometime
I'm walking out that door
Some may come and some may go
But no-one seems to be
The person I've been searching for
The one whose meant for me
Biding my time, trying to find a heart that's lonely
Looking for her, my love my one and only
Maybe I'll dream, tonight about the girl who'll be coming my way
So I'll take this chance and celebrate the day
When I'm making my way through an open door
I've got some love and so much more
And I"m ready to make someone mine
Making my way through an open door
I've got some love and so much more
And I'll find her, 'cos it's about time
You try too hard and it feels just like
You're running on thin air
Why does luck happen by suprise
If you don't really care
The past is gone the flames are out
From fires that have burned
New ideals and different thoughts
From lessons I have learned
Biding my time, trying to find a heart that's lonely
Looking for her, my love my one and only
Maybe I'll dream, tonight about the girl who'll be coming my way
So I'll take this chance and celebrate the day
When I'm making my way through an open door
I've got some love and so much more
And I"m ready to make someone mine
Making my way through an open door
I've got some love and so much more
And I'll find her, 'cos it's about time
Got the feeling this could take a pretty long while
To find that smile
Put my faith in another piece of good advice
Well I tried that twice
Waiting for, a little something more
To inspire, take me higher
And I"m ready to make someone mine
Making my way through an open door
I've got some love and so much more
And I'll find her, 'cos it's about time
It's about time
Where I have been before
If I don't find my love sometime
I'm walking out that door
Some may come and some may go
But no-one seems to be
The person I've been searching for
The one whose meant for me
Biding my time, trying to find a heart that's lonely
Looking for her, my love my one and only
Maybe I'll dream, tonight about the girl who'll be coming my way
So I'll take this chance and celebrate the day
When I'm making my way through an open door
I've got some love and so much more
And I"m ready to make someone mine
Making my way through an open door
I've got some love and so much more
And I'll find her, 'cos it's about time
You try too hard and it feels just like
You're running on thin air
Why does luck happen by suprise
If you don't really care
The past is gone the flames are out
From fires that have burned

And I'll find her, 'cos it's about time
It's about time
Next Year Baby lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Next Year,
Things are gonna change,
Gonna drink less beer
And start all over again
Gonna pull up my socks
Gonna clean my shower
Not gonna live by the clock
But get up at a decent hour
Gonna read more books
Gonna keep up with the news
Gonna learn how to cook
And spend less money on shoes
Pay my bills on time
File my mail away, everyday
Only drink the finest wine
And call my Gran every Sunday
Resolutions
Well Baby they come and go
Will I do any of these things?
The answers probably no
But if there's one thing, I must do,
Despite my greatest fears
I'm gonna say to you
How I've felt all of these years
Next Year, Next Year, Next Year
I gonna tell you, how I feel
Well, resolutions
Baby they come and go
Will I do any of these things?
The answers probably no
But if there's one thing, I must do,
Despite my greatest fears
I'm gonna say to you
How I've felt all of these years
Next Year, Next Year, Next Year
Things are gonna change,
Gonna drink less beer
And start all over again
Gonna pull up my socks
Gonna clean my shower
Not gonna live by the clock
But get up at a decent hour
Gonna read more books
Gonna keep up with the news
Gonna learn how to cook
And spend less money on shoes
Pay my bills on time
File my mail away, everyday
Only drink the finest wine
And call my Gran every Sunday
Resolutions
Well Baby they come and go
Will I do any of these things?
The answers probably no
But if there's one thing, I must do,
Despite my greatest fears
I'm gonna say to you
How I've felt all of these years
Next Year, Next Year, Next Year
I gonna tell you, how I feel
Well, resolutions
Baby they come and go
Will I do any of these things?
The answers probably no
But if there's one thing, I must do,
Despite my greatest fears
I'm gonna say to you
How I've felt all of these years
Next Year, Next Year, Next Year
Everlasting Love lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Hearts gone astray, deep in her when they go.
I went away just when you needed me so.
You won't regret, I'll come back begging you. (mmm)
Won't you forget, welcome the love we once knew.
Open up your eyes, then you realise.
Here I stand with my everlasting love.
Need you by my side.
Girl to be my pride.
Never be denied everlasting love....
oh...
Hearts gone astray deep in hurt when they go.
I went away just when you needed me so.
You wont regret I'll come back begging you.
Wont you forget, welcome love we once knew.
Open up your eyes, then you'll realise.
Here I stand with my everlasting love
Need you by my side.

Frontin' lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Don't wanna sound full of myself or rude,
But you ain't looking at no other dudes cause you love me (uh oh)
So you think about a chance,
You find yourself trying to do my dance,
Maybe cause you love me (uh oh)
So then we tried - we had to slow down
Because you weren't used to how fast we touched
The we locked eyes - and I knew I was in there
And I was gon' tear ya ass up,
I know that I'm carrying on, nevermind if I'm showing off
I was just frontin (you know I want ya babe)
I'm ready to bet it all, unless you don't care at all
But you know I want ya (you should stop frontin babe babe, yea yea yea
Trying to be the best girlfriend you could be
But still you sneak and look at me, and girl I love it
Then you give your other girl a shove
Tell her you gon' palm her ass like it was
And she's gon love it (whoa-oh whoa)
So then we tried - gotta slow down
Because you weren't used to how fast we touched,
Then we locked eyes - and I knew I was in there
And I was gon' tear ya ass up,

Can't We Be Friends lyrics - Jamie Cullum
I thought I'd found the girl of my dreams
So it seems this is how the story ends:
She's goin'to turn me down and say
"Can't we be Friends?"
I thought for once it couldn't go wrong
Not for long! I can see the way this ends:
She's goin'to turn me down and say
"Can't we be Friends?"
Never again! through and with love
And through with them!
They play their game without shame,
And who's to blame?
I thought I'd found a girl I could trust
What a bust! now I see the way this ends:
She's goin'to turn me down and say
"Can't we be Friends?"
Never again! through and with love
And through with them!
They play their game without shame,
And who's to blame?
I should have seen the signals and stopped
What a flop! now I see the way this ends
I'll let her turn me down and say
"Can't we be Friends?"
I thought I'd found the girl of my dreams
So it seems this is how the story ends
I'll let her turn me down and say
"Can't we be Friends?"
So it seems this is how the story ends:
She's goin'to turn me down and say
"Can't we be Friends?"
I thought for once it couldn't go wrong
Not for long! I can see the way this ends:
She's goin'to turn me down and say
"Can't we be Friends?"
Never again! through and with love
And through with them!
They play their game without shame,
And who's to blame?
I thought I'd found a girl I could trust
What a bust! now I see the way this ends:
She's goin'to turn me down and say
"Can't we be Friends?"
Never again! through and with love
And through with them!
They play their game without shame,
And who's to blame?
I should have seen the signals and stopped
What a flop! now I see the way this ends
I'll let her turn me down and say
"Can't we be Friends?"
I thought I'd found the girl of my dreams
So it seems this is how the story ends
I'll let her turn me down and say
"Can't we be Friends?"
You And The Night And The Music lyrics - Jamie Cullum
You and the night and the music
Fill me with flaming desire
Setting my being completely on fire
You and the night and the music
Thrill me but will we be one
After the night and the music are done
Until the pale light of dawn and in daylight
Hearts will be throbbing guitars
Morning will come without warning and take away the stars
If we must live for the moment
Love 'til the moment is through
After the night and the music die
Will I have you?
Until the pale light of dawn and in daylight
Hearts will be throbbing guitars
Morning will come without warning and take away the stars
If we must live for the moment
Love 'til the moment is through
After the night and the music die
Will I have you?
Fill me with flaming desire
Setting my being completely on fire
You and the night and the music
Thrill me but will we be one
After the night and the music are done
Until the pale light of dawn and in daylight
Hearts will be throbbing guitars
Morning will come without warning and take away the stars
If we must live for the moment
Love 'til the moment is through
After the night and the music die
Will I have you?
Until the pale light of dawn and in daylight
Hearts will be throbbing guitars
Morning will come without warning and take away the stars
If we must live for the moment
Love 'til the moment is through
After the night and the music die
Will I have you?
I Can't Get Started lyrics - Jamie Cullum
I'm a glum one
It's explainable
I've met someone
unattainable
Life's a bore
The world is my
oyster no more
All the papers
Where I lead the news
With my capers
Now will spread the news
Superman turned out to be
A flash-in-the-pan
I've flown around the world in a plane
I've settled revolutions in Spain
The North Pole I have charted
But I can't get started with you
Around the golf course I'm under par
And all the movies want me to star
I've built a house and show place
But I can't get no place with you
You're so supreme
Lyrics that I write of you
Scheme, just for a sight of you
And I dream both day and night of you
And what good does it do
In 1929, I sold short
In London, I'm presented at court
But you've got me down hearted,
Cause I can't get started with you
You're so supreme
Lyrics that I write of you
Scheme, just for a sight of you
And I dream both day and night of you
And what good does it do
In 1929, I sold short
In London, I'm presented at court
But you've got me down hearted,
Cause I can't get started with you, with you
It's explainable
I've met someone
unattainable
Life's a bore
The world is my
oyster no more
All the papers
Where I lead the news
With my capers
Now will spread the news
Superman turned out to be
A flash-in-the-pan
I've flown around the world in a plane
I've settled revolutions in Spain
The North Pole I have charted
But I can't get started with you
Around the golf course I'm under par
And all the movies want me to star
I've built a house and show place
But I can't get no place with you
You're so supreme
Lyrics that I write of you
Scheme, just for a sight of you
And I dream both day and night of you
And what good does it do
In 1929, I sold short
In London, I'm presented at court
But you've got me down hearted,
Cause I can't get started with you
You're so supreme
Lyrics that I write of you
Scheme, just for a sight of you
And I dream both day and night of you
And what good does it do
In 1929, I sold short
In London, I'm presented at court
But you've got me down hearted,
Cause I can't get started with you, with you
Devil May Care lyrics - Jamie Cullum
No cares for me
I'm happy as I can be
I've learned to love and to live
Devil may care
No cares and woes
Whatever comes later goes
That's how I'll take and I'll give
Devil may care
When the day is through, I suffer no regrets
I know that he who frets, loses the night
For only a fool, thinks he can hold back the dawn
He who is wise never tries to revise what's past and gone
Live love today, and come tomorrow what may
Don't even stop for a sigh, it doesn't help if you cry
That's how I'll live and I'll die
Devil may care
When the day is through, I suffer no regrets
I know that he who frets, loses the night
For only a fool, thinks he can hold back the dawn
He who is wise never tries to revise what's past and gone
Live love today, and come tomorrow what may
Don't even stop for a sigh, it doesn't help if you cry
That's how I'll live and I'll die
Devil may care
I'm happy as I can be
I've learned to love and to live
Devil may care
No cares and woes
Whatever comes later goes
That's how I'll take and I'll give
Devil may care
When the day is through, I suffer no regrets
I know that he who frets, loses the night
For only a fool, thinks he can hold back the dawn
He who is wise never tries to revise what's past and gone
Live love today, and come tomorrow what may
Don't even stop for a sigh, it doesn't help if you cry
That's how I'll live and I'll die
Devil may care
When the day is through, I suffer no regrets
I know that he who frets, loses the night
For only a fool, thinks he can hold back the dawn
He who is wise never tries to revise what's past and gone
Live love today, and come tomorrow what may
Don't even stop for a sigh, it doesn't help if you cry
That's how I'll live and I'll die
Devil may care

You're nobody till somebody loves you
You're nobody till somebody cares
You may be king
You may posses the world and its gold
But gold wont bring you happiness when you're growing old
The world still is the same
You'll never change it
As sure as the sun shine above
You're nobody till somebody loves you
So find yourself somebody to love
You're nobody till somebody loves you
You're nobody till somebody cares
You may be a king
You may posses the all world and its gold
But gold wont bring you happiness when you're growing old
The world still is the same
You'll never change it
As sure as the sun shines above you
You're nobody, nobody till somebody loves you
So find yourself somebody
You got to get yourself somebody
because you're nobody till somebody loves you
You're nobody to somebody cares
You may be a king
You may posses big fat world and its gold
But gold wont bring you happiness when you're going old
The world's always the same, you'll never change it, change it
As sure as the stars shine above
You're nobody, nobody till somebody loves you
So find yoursel somebody, somebody to love
You're nobody till somebody cares
You may be king
You may posses the world and its gold
But gold wont bring you happiness when you're growing old
The world still is the same
You'll never change it
As sure as the sun shine above
You're nobody till somebody loves you
So find yourself somebody to love
You're nobody till somebody loves you
You're nobody till somebody cares
You may be a king
You may posses the all world and its gold
But gold wont bring you happiness when you're growing old
The world still is the same
You'll never change it
As sure as the sun shines above you
You're nobody, nobody till somebody loves you
So find yourself somebody
You got to get yourself somebody
because you're nobody till somebody loves you
You're nobody to somebody cares
You may be a king
You may posses big fat world and its gold
But gold wont bring you happiness when you're going old
The world's always the same, you'll never change it, change it
As sure as the stars shine above
You're nobody, nobody till somebody loves you
So find yoursel somebody, somebody to love
Pointless Nostalgic lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Ain't thinking 'bout love today
Lost in the sunlight
Walking down memory lane
Ain't thinking 'bout you today
People from the past that I knew
Are slowly slipping away
Seems so long ago
Since we were carefree
Photographs lost in time are all I see
A pointless nostalgic-
That's me
That's me
Thoughts running round my head today
Times from the past popping up where they're from I don't know
Reminiscing my cares away
Wishing I could go back and change the points that were low
Till I've realised what life's meant to be
Photographs lost in time are all I see
A pointless nostalgic;
That's me
That's me
Reminiscing my cares away
Wishing I could go back and change the points that were low
Till I've realised what life's meant to be
Photographs lost in time are all I see
A pointless nostalgic;
That's me
That's me
It's all I'll ever be
It's all I'll ever be
Cause that's me
It's all I'll ever be
Cause that's me
Lost in the sunlight
Walking down memory lane
Ain't thinking 'bout you today
People from the past that I knew
Are slowly slipping away
Seems so long ago
Since we were carefree
Photographs lost in time are all I see
A pointless nostalgic-
That's me
That's me
Thoughts running round my head today
Times from the past popping up where they're from I don't know
Reminiscing my cares away
Wishing I could go back and change the points that were low
Till I've realised what life's meant to be
Photographs lost in time are all I see
A pointless nostalgic;
That's me
That's me
Reminiscing my cares away
Wishing I could go back and change the points that were low
Till I've realised what life's meant to be
Photographs lost in time are all I see
A pointless nostalgic;
That's me
That's me
It's all I'll ever be
It's all I'll ever be
Cause that's me
It's all I'll ever be
Cause that's me
In The Wee Small Hours Of The Morning lyrics - Jamie Cullum
In the wee small hours of the morning
While the whole wide world is fast alseep
You lie awake thinking of the girl
Never even think of counting sheep
While the whole wide world has learned it's lesson
She'd be yours if only she would call
In the wee small hours of the morning
It's the time i miss her most of all
[instrumental]
In the wee small hours of the morning
While the whole wide world is fast asleep
You lie awake thinking of the girl
Never even think of counting sheep
While the whole wide world has learned it's lesson
She'd be yours if only she would call
In the wee small hours of the morning
It's the time i miss her most of all
While the whole wide world is fast alseep
You lie awake thinking of the girl
Never even think of counting sheep
While the whole wide world has learned it's lesson
She'd be yours if only she would call
In the wee small hours of the morning
It's the time i miss her most of all
[instrumental]
In the wee small hours of the morning
While the whole wide world is fast asleep
You lie awake thinking of the girl
Never even think of counting sheep
While the whole wide world has learned it's lesson
She'd be yours if only she would call
In the wee small hours of the morning
It's the time i miss her most of all
Well You Needn't lyrics - Jamie Cullum
You're talkin' so sweet well you needn't
You say you won't cheat well you needn't
You're tappin' your feet well you needn't
It's over now, it's over now
You're dressin' with class well you needn't
You're holdin' your sass well you needn't
You think you're a gas well you needn't
It's over now, it's over now
It's over now, it's over now
You've had your fun, so take a bow
You oughta know, you lost the glow, the beat is slow, the shadows grow,
the lights are low, it's time to go, let's close the show down
(Oh) You're taking off weight well you needn't
You're looking just great well you needn't
You're settin' the bait well you needn't
It's over now, it's over now
[repeat all then...]
It's over now, it's over now
It's over now, it's over now
It's over now, it's over!
You say you won't cheat well you needn't
You're tappin' your feet well you needn't
It's over now, it's over now
You're dressin' with class well you needn't
You're holdin' your sass well you needn't
You think you're a gas well you needn't
It's over now, it's over now
It's over now, it's over now
You've had your fun, so take a bow
You oughta know, you lost the glow, the beat is slow, the shadows grow,
the lights are low, it's time to go, let's close the show down
(Oh) You're taking off weight well you needn't
You're looking just great well you needn't
You're settin' the bait well you needn't
It's over now, it's over now
[repeat all then...]
It's over now, it's over now
It's over now, it's over now
It's over now, it's over!
It Ain't Necessarily So lyrics - Jamie Cullum
It ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily so
The things that you're liable
To read in the Bible,
It ain't necessarily so.
Now david was small but oh my
Little david was small but oh my
He fought big goliath
Who lay down and dieth
David was small but oh my.
To get into heaven, don't snap for a second
Live clean forget your faults
I take the gospel whenever it's possible
But with a grain of salt
Oh jonah he lived in a whale
Oh jonah he lived in a whale
He made his home in
That fishes abdomen
Oh jonah he lived in a whale
To get into heaven, don't snap for a seven
Live clean forget your faults
I take gospel whenever it's possible
But with a grain of salt
Methuselah lived 900 years
Methuselah lived 900 years
Who calls that livin'
When no gal will give in
To no man what's 900 years
It ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily so
The things that you're liable
To read in the Bible,
It ain't necessarily so.
Ain't necessarily so
Ain't necessarily so
Ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily so
The things that you're liable
To read in the Bible,
It ain't necessarily so.
Now david was small but oh my
Little david was small but oh my
He fought big goliath
Who lay down and dieth
David was small but oh my.
To get into heaven, don't snap for a second
Live clean forget your faults
I take the gospel whenever it's possible
But with a grain of salt
Oh jonah he lived in a whale
Oh jonah he lived in a whale
He made his home in
That fishes abdomen
Oh jonah he lived in a whale
To get into heaven, don't snap for a seven
Live clean forget your faults
I take gospel whenever it's possible
But with a grain of salt
Methuselah lived 900 years
Methuselah lived 900 years
Who calls that livin'
When no gal will give in
To no man what's 900 years
It ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily so
The things that you're liable
To read in the Bible,
It ain't necessarily so.
Ain't necessarily so
Ain't necessarily so
Ain't necessarily so
High And Dry lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Two jumps in a week, I bet you think that's pretty clever don't you, boy?
Flying on your motorcycle, watching all the ground beneath you drop.
You'd kill yourself for recognition, You'd kill yourself to never ever stop
You broke another mirror. You're turning in to something that your not.
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Drying up in conversation, you will be the one who cannot talk.
All your insides fall to pieces, you just sit there wishing you could still make love.
They're the ones who'll hate you, when you think you've got the world all sussed out.
There the ones who'll spit at you. You will be the one screaming out.
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me.....dry
[piano solo]
It's the best thing you have ever had, it's the best thing you have ever had.
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
do do do...[x1]
do do do...[x2]
do do do...[x8]
Flying on your motorcycle, watching all the ground beneath you drop.
You'd kill yourself for recognition, You'd kill yourself to never ever stop
You broke another mirror. You're turning in to something that your not.
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Drying up in conversation, you will be the one who cannot talk.
All your insides fall to pieces, you just sit there wishing you could still make love.
They're the ones who'll hate you, when you think you've got the world all sussed out.
There the ones who'll spit at you. You will be the one screaming out.
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me.....dry
[piano solo]
It's the best thing you have ever had, it's the best thing you have ever had.
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
do do do...[x1]
do do do...[x2]
do do do...[x8]
Too Close For Comfort lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Be wise. Be fair. Be sure. Be there. Behave. Beware.
Be wise, be smart, behave, my heart
Don't upset your cart when she's so close
Be soft, be sweet, but be discreet
Don't go off your feet, she's to close for comfort
Too close, too close for comfort, no, not again
Too close, too close to know just when to say "when"
Be firm, be fair, be sure, beware
On your guard, take care, while there's such temptation
One thing leads to another
Too late to run for cover
She's much too close for comfort
[instrumental]
Be wise. Be fair. Be sure. Be there.
Put on your old thinking cap boy
Cause if you don't look out you
Will find out that you are much too
You're too close for comfort.
You're heading for a mishap boy
The first thing that you know she
Will have you up that old tree.
She's too close for comfort
Too close, so close
Too close
Be firm and be fair, be absolutely sure, beware
On your guard, take care, when there's such temptation
One thing leads to another
Too late to run for cover
Much too, too close for comfort now
One thing leads to another
Too late to run for cover
Much too, too close for comfort now
One thing
One thing leads to another
Much too, too close for comfort now
Be wise. Be fair. Be sure. Be there. Behave. Beware.
She's too close, too close for comfort now
Be wise, be smart, behave, my heart
Don't upset your cart when she's so close
Be soft, be sweet, but be discreet
Don't go off your feet, she's to close for comfort
Too close, too close for comfort, no, not again
Too close, too close to know just when to say "when"
Be firm, be fair, be sure, beware
On your guard, take care, while there's such temptation
One thing leads to another
Too late to run for cover
She's much too close for comfort
[instrumental]
Be wise. Be fair. Be sure. Be there.
Put on your old thinking cap boy
Cause if you don't look out you
Will find out that you are much too
You're too close for comfort.
You're heading for a mishap boy
The first thing that you know she
Will have you up that old tree.
She's too close for comfort
Too close, so close
Too close
Be firm and be fair, be absolutely sure, beware
On your guard, take care, when there's such temptation
One thing leads to another
Too late to run for cover
Much too, too close for comfort now
One thing leads to another
Too late to run for cover
Much too, too close for comfort now
One thing
One thing leads to another
Much too, too close for comfort now
Be wise. Be fair. Be sure. Be there. Behave. Beware.
She's too close, too close for comfort now
A Time For Love lyrics - Jamie Cullum
A time for summer skies
For hummingbirds and butterflies
For tender words that harmonize with love
A time for climbing hills
For leaning out of windowsills
Admiring daffodils above ADMIRING THE DAFFODILS ABOVE
A time for holding hands together
A time for rainbow coloured weather
A time of make believe that we've been dreaming of
As time goes drifting by
The willow bends and so do I
But all my friends whatever skies above BUT OH, MY FRIENDS, WHATEVER SKY ABOVE
I know a time for spring I'VE KNOWN A TIME FOR SPRING
A time for fall
But best of all
A time for love
A time for holding hands together
A time for rainbow coloured weather
A time of make believe that we've been dreaming of
As time goes drifting by
The willow bends and so do I
But all my friends whatever skies above
I know a time for spring
A time for fall
But best of all
A time for love
For hummingbirds and butterflies
For tender words that harmonize with love
A time for climbing hills
For leaning out of windowsills
Admiring daffodils above ADMIRING THE DAFFODILS ABOVE
A time for holding hands together
A time for rainbow coloured weather
A time of make believe that we've been dreaming of
As time goes drifting by
The willow bends and so do I
But all my friends whatever skies above BUT OH, MY FRIENDS, WHATEVER SKY ABOVE
I know a time for spring I'VE KNOWN A TIME FOR SPRING
A time for fall
But best of all
A time for love
A time for holding hands together
A time for rainbow coloured weather
A time of make believe that we've been dreaming of
As time goes drifting by
The willow bends and so do I
But all my friends whatever skies above
I know a time for spring
A time for fall
But best of all
A time for love
Lookin' Good lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Long as you're lookin' good...
You can win the admiration,
Of the current population,
You can be star,
Long as you're lookin' good!
You have made the main connection,
You can win the next election,
Don't care who you are,
Just leave them mesmerised, give their eyes a picture to play with,
And you will be so surprised at how much you can get away with!
Long as you're lookin' good!
Let that be your main credential,
You'll get treatment preferential,
It's a rule that's still essentially iron-clad,
Remember you can' look bad,
Long as you're lookin' good!
[instrumental]
You can tell the world to shove it,
Show 'em crap and make 'em love it!
Uh!
You can run their life,
Long as you're lookin' good!
They'll believe you walk on water,
Even trust you with their daughter,
Sometimes with their wife,
Don't have to know a thing, just look like you're a sensation,
Don't have to dance or sing to get that standing ovation!
Long as you're lookin' good!
You can show up late for dinner,
Play the saint or play the sinner,
A blag, a crank, a rank beginner,
Or just a cad!
Remember you can't look bad,
Long as you're looking good!
Long as you're soundin' good!
You can win the admiration,
Of the current population,
You can be star,
Long as you're lookin' good!
You have made the main connection,
You can win the next election,
Don't care who you are,
Just leave them mesmerised, give their eyes a picture to play with,
And you will be so surprised at how much you can get away with!
Long as you're lookin' good!
Let that be your main credential,
You'll get treatment preferential,
It's a rule that's still essentially iron-clad,
Remember you can' look bad,
Long as you're lookin' good!
[instrumental]
You can tell the world to shove it,
Show 'em crap and make 'em love it!
Uh!
You can run their life,
Long as you're lookin' good!
They'll believe you walk on water,
Even trust you with their daughter,
Sometimes with their wife,
Don't have to know a thing, just look like you're a sensation,
Don't have to dance or sing to get that standing ovation!
Long as you're lookin' good!
You can show up late for dinner,

I Want To Be A Popstar lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Why is it all these fakers
Seem to make the morning papers?
They're selling records by the million, seems so easy in my opinion
Look at the Jazz Star, he really needs some guts
Playing from seven to midnight, surviving on peanuts
Selling records by the dozen
Probably sold his tenor to make 'em
With artwork designed by his brother
And liner notes by his mother
Told what to do, miming to a tape
While a team of experts make sure you're looking great
Taking a limo to your own private bar
My God! I want to be a popstar!
Going to get on the T.V and go on dates with only the pretty
Maybe next year I'll pretend to be gay
I'll sell some more records in a flash that way
Makes no difference if i look like a nut
Every kid in the world is going to copy my haircut
I'll advertise some trainers, maybe even a car
Shrewd product placement will gurantee I'm a star
An ugly guy will write my songs
Surley there is nothing wrong
Retiring when I'm 22
With a house a car and nothing to do
Instantaneous satisfaction it will be
Got no need for artistic credibility
With this attitude I'm pretty sure to go far
My God! I want to be a popstar!
Maybe its too easy, to move so quickly so far
I want to be a popstar!
Where's the middle ground?
It's hard to make a living with you own true sound
What road am I going to tread?
What the hell would i do instead?
There may be no tours in Roma, or a drug-induced designer coma
No teenage girls when show is over, I prefer my women older
Maybe I don't know what I'm talking about
Sometimes it would be nice to play a place and sell out
Driving to a gig in my brand new sports car
My God! I want to be a popstar!
I want to be a popstar!
Maybe its too easy, to move so quickly so far
Who wants to be a popstar?
Seem to make the morning papers?
They're selling records by the million, seems so easy in my opinion
Look at the Jazz Star, he really needs some guts
Playing from seven to midnight, surviving on peanuts
Selling records by the dozen
Probably sold his tenor to make 'em
With artwork designed by his brother
And liner notes by his mother
Told what to do, miming to a tape
While a team of experts make sure you're looking great
Taking a limo to your own private bar
My God! I want to be a popstar!
Going to get on the T.V and go on dates with only the pretty
Maybe next year I'll pretend to be gay
I'll sell some more records in a flash that way
Makes no difference if i look like a nut
Every kid in the world is going to copy my haircut

I want to be a popstar!

Who wants to be a popstar?
After You've Gone lyrics - Jamie Cullum
After you've gone, and left me crying
After you've gone, there's no denying
Some day, when you grow lonely
Your heart will break like mine for you'll want me only
After you've gone, after you've gone away
After you've gone and left me crying
After you've gone, there's no denying
You'll feel blue, you'll feel sad
You'll miss the dearest pal that you've ever had
There'll come a time, don't you forget it
There'll come a time when you regret it
Some day when you grow lonely
Your heart will break like mine for you'll want me only
After you've gone, after you've gone away
After you've gone, there's no denying
Some day, when you grow lonely
Your heart will break like mine for you'll want me only
After you've gone, after you've gone away
After you've gone and left me crying
After you've gone, there's no denying
You'll feel blue, you'll feel sad
You'll miss the dearest pal that you've ever had
There'll come a time, don't you forget it
There'll come a time when you regret it
Some day when you grow lonely
Your heart will break like mine for you'll want me only
After you've gone, after you've gone away
Hey, Look Me Over lyrics - Jamie Cullum
[from "Going in Style" soundtrack]
Hey, look me over, and me and it
Fresh out of clover mortgage up to here
But don't pass the plate
Folks, don't pass the cup
I figure whenever you're down and out, the only way is up
And I'll be up, like a rose
But high on the vine
Don't thumb your nose, but take a tip from mine
I'm a little bit short of the other room, but let me get me some
And look out world here I come
Hey, look me over, let me in here
Fresh out of clover mortgage up to here
But don't pass the plate
Folks, don't pass the cup
I figure whenever you're down and out, the only way is up
And I'll be up, like a rose
But high on the vine
Don't thumb your nose, but take a tip from mine
I'm a little bit short of the other room, but let me get me some
And look out world here I come
Hey, look me over, and me and it
Fresh out of clover mortgage up to here
But don't pass the plate
Folks, don't pass the cup
I figure whenever you're down and out, the only way is up
And I'll be up, like a rose
But high on the vine
Don't thumb your nose, but take a tip from mine
I'm a little bit short of the other room, but let me get me some
And look out world here I come
Hey, look me over, let me in here
Fresh out of clover mortgage up to here
But don't pass the plate
Folks, don't pass the cup
I figure whenever you're down and out, the only way is up
And I'll be up, like a rose
But high on the vine
Don't thumb your nose, but take a tip from mine
I'm a little bit short of the other room, but let me get me some
And look out world here I come
Move On Song lyrics - Jamie Cullum
Pictures that I can't throw away
One life, tattooed
It's been several months and a day
Since we were referred to, as me and you
Even though your heart has gone dry
You won't deny me my dreams
At least that's what it seems
Now that you're gone
I had to write this move on song
Just for me ...
So I could figure where it went wrong
I channelled the soul of Elton John
The tea's gone cold and salty with tears
My friends beckon me out, for comeback beers
The truth be known like summer lawn
I've always been drawn to the clouds
Where I'll sit for hours
Now that you're gone
I had to write this move on song
Just for me ...
I resent you being a bitch
Self-preservation, oh, that little trick
I even had the guts to call time
On a wounded while and ragged rhymes
The truth be known like summer lawn
I've always been drawn to the clouds
Where I'll sit for hours
Now that you're gone
I had to write this move on song
Just for me ...
Right now
Love's gonna make me slam my fist right through the door
It's time now
To scatter myself in all those pieces on the floor
To serve me up some shots of my words
A joke on the lessons I've learned
That darkens my world
Now that you're gone
I had to write this move on song
Just for me ...
Work Of Art lyrics - Jamie Cullum
I'm gonna tell you where we are
C'mon love me and we'll go far
There's an ocean underneath the sea
Put me in your narrative
Paint your sunset golden red
There's a beautiful world for us to see
Whaddya say?
Say can you hear me?
You gotta jump right in
If you gonna find the lovin' that you need
I wanna live my life like a work of art
I wanna live my life like a work of art
If there's just one thing to give you any truth
C'mon and live your life like a work of art
There's sunshine in my veins
That's never gonna be contained
That sounds like paradise to me
The secrets in my brain
Tell me we're all the same
The more you sing the more you're free
So what you say?
Say can you hear me?
You gotta jump right in
If you gonna find the lovin' that you need
I wanna live my life like a work of art
I wanna live my life like a work of art
If there's just one thing to give you any truth
C'mon and live your life like a work of art
Live my life, live my
Like a work of art
[x8]
C'mon love me and we'll go far
There's an ocean underneath the sea
Put me in your narrative
Paint your sunset golden red
There's a beautiful world for us to see
Whaddya say?
Say can you hear me?
You gotta jump right in
If you gonna find the lovin' that you need
I wanna live my life like a work of art
I wanna live my life like a work of art
If there's just one thing to give you any truth
C'mon and live your life like a work of art
There's sunshine in my veins
That's never gonna be contained
That sounds like paradise to me
The secrets in my brain
Tell me we're all the same
The more you sing the more you're free
So what you say?
Say can you hear me?
You gotta jump right in
If you gonna find the lovin' that you need
I wanna live my life like a work of art
I wanna live my life like a work of art
If there's just one thing to give you any truth
C'mon and live your life like a work of art
Live my life, live my
Like a work of art

So They Say lyrics - Jamie Cullum
They put it in a can
Everybody needs or wants to join a band
And they play, and they play, and they play
Drink more, you used it well
A million people playing at your tabloid hell
You ok, you ok, you ok, you ok
‘Cause Knoxville’s doing all your stunts
And time is running out for love
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You and me gonna set the world on fire
The president has proved himself to be a lie
So they say, so they say, so they say
So they say, so they say, so they say
Maybe just a little more to get me high
Its clear to everybody that the girl’s got style
So they say, so they say, so they say
Watched night, the Percocet
Buy it in in bulk over the internet
So they say, so they say, so they say
So grow down and rule the world
Sitting on your face with meeting random girls
Its ok, its ok, its ok, its ok
Your stone heart needs a little shove
And time is running out for love
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You and me gonna set the world on fire
The president has proved himself to be a lie
So they say, so they say, so they say
So they say, so they say, so they say
Maybe just a little more to get me high
Its clear to everybody that the girl’s got style
So they say, so they say, so they say, so they say
Your stone heart needs a little shove
Is that Green Peace picking through your junk?
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You and me gonna set the world on fire
The president has proved himself to be a lie
So they say, so they say, so they say
So they say, so they say, so they say
Maybe just a little more to get me high
Its clear to everybody that the girl’s got style
So they say, so they say, so they say, so they say
