PHIL MANCA'S SIGNS - LYRICS


BRAND NEW GAME (Arguello/Manca ©Tremolo Editions Productions)

My back's against the wall
This could be the last call,she said
I am about to fall
Do you want me to crawl, baby
I'm on the edge now
 
I tried to do my best and I said I was sorry
You’re messing with my brain and again you’re deceive me
You're leaving me in pain and again
it's the same it's just like a ball and chain
 
Don't turn your back now
A brand new game now
You're driving me insane
Our love is like a ball and chain
 
Don't turn your back now
I feel it right now
You're driving me insane
Our love is like a ball and chain
 
You’re screaming out my name
As if I was your slave and then
You’re trampling on my face
You tie me up with chains oh yeah
Back to the eight ball
 
I tried to do my best and I said I was sorry
You’re messing with my brain and again you’re deceive me
You're leaving me in pain and again
it's the same it's just like a ball and chain
 
I’m ‘bout to fall
D’ya want me to crawl?

SIGNS (Arguello/Manca ©Tremolo Editions Productions)

Send me a sign
Send me a sign now
 
Show a sign now
The time is running late
Show me right now
So I can keep the faith oh Lord
 
Through the storm all I need is you
Let the light come shining through
 
Turn the light on
So I can take a break
Show me somehow
Over the rainbow is a place
 
Through the storm all I need is you
Let the light come shining through
 
Send me a sign
Send me a sign now
 
Show a sign now
The time is running late
Show me right now
So I can keep the faith oh Lord
 
Through the storm all I need is you
Let the light come shining through

COLORBLIND (Arguello/Manca ©Tremolo Editions Productions)

The grass is allways greener on the other side
So I’m on my way to see if it’s not a lie
Once I jump the fence I’m a supertramp
I’m on that train to this wonderland
That’s when I just realised I am colourblind
 
Once in a blue moon met a girl that was so cool
She had many plans one of them to take her hand
This romance seemed so right til the wedding was white
The birds and the bees singing in the trees
That’s when I just realised I am colourblind
 
I saw a film today oh boy it was allright
Rewind, forward, playback, projection in my mind
Didn’t spend a dime
That’s when I just realised I am colourblind
 
Show me show me your true colours
Your heart is it so hard now tell me why
Show me show me your true colours
Cindy my baby
That’s when I just realised I am colourblind
 
The grass is allways greener on the other side
So I’m on my way
I am colourblind

YER BLUES (Lennon/Mc Cartney-Arr. Manca ©Northern Songs LTD/MacLen Music LTD)

Yes I'm lonely wanna die
Yes I'm lonely wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Girl you know the reason why

In the morning wanna die
In the evening wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Girl you know the reason why

My mother was of the sky
My father was of the earth
But I am of the universe
And you know what it's worth
I'm lonely wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Girl you know the reason why

Black cloud crossed my mind
Blue mist round my soul
Feel so suicidal
Even hate my rock 'n' roll
I’m lonely yeah wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Girl you know the reason why
Yeah you know why
 
Yes I'm lonely wanna die
Yes I'm lonely wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Girl you know the reason why
If I ain't dead already
Girl you know the reason why
If I ain't dead already
Girl you know the reason why

LITTLE GIRL (Mayall-Arr.Manca ©Carlin Music Corp)

You're gonna be mine, little girl,

You've been through 18 years of pain.

You're gonna be mine, little girl,

You've been through 18 years of pain.

I'm gonna give you a love, child,

You won't feel bad again.
 
You've been mistreated, little girl,

But I swear, I swear it'll be outgrown.

You've been mistreated, little girl,

But I swear, I swear it'll be outgrown.

Sure it will
I'm gonna give you a love, child,

Something you've never known.
Here we go
 
You're gonna be mine, little girl,
Even if I can't have you by my side.
You're gonna be mine, little girl,
Even if I can't have you by my side.
You're gonna remember the love, child,
That made you satisfied
One more time
 
You're gonna remember the love, child,
That made you satisfied
You're gonna remember the love, child,
That made you satisfied

S.M.I.L.E (Arguello/Manca ©Tremolo Editions Productions)

My dog is my only friend i know that his love is true 
Grabed myself a cup of tea, guess what ?
The color’s turning blue 
Thank you Doc I count the friends that were there 
But most of all don’t forget Mary too 
But is it dark enough to see the light
 
Shouldn’t you just happy to be alive
But most of all don’t forget to smile
 
Could I be the only one to feel like I’m all alone
Poured myself a glass of Côte du Rhone wine 
Guess what ? the colour’s turning red 
Doc d’you see the rocking chair in my head ?
Gimme some bread I gotta feed the ducks
But is it dark enough to see the light
 
Shouldn’t you just happy to be alive
But most of all don’t forget to smile

I think I’ll pour myself a bubble bath
Guess what ? The water’s turning cold
Swans and ducks are filling up the bath tub
So numb that I can’t fill my toes
But is it dark enough ? Is it dark ?
And when I am just about to chill
It’s time to take that fuckin pill again
 
Shouldn’t you just happy to be alive
But most of all don’t forget to smile

I LOVE TO LOVE YOU (Davis/Taub/Watson-Arr.Manca©Powerforce Music/Vrijon Music / Booty Ooty Music)

And every time that I kiss you, yeah, yeah
Sighing, sighing, sighing, sighing

HOT LITTLE MAMA (Davis/Taub/Watson-Arr.Manca©Universal Music Careers)

I got a hot little mama, child, she's so fine
Send those heat waves up and down my spine
Got a small waistline and her hips set way out
And the whole fire department can't put her out

She's my hot hot little mama
Hot hot little mama
Hot little mama
She really sets me afire

Well my hot little mama, like an electric wire
Every time I kiss her she sets me afire

She's my hot hot little mama
Hot hot little mama
Hot little mama
She really sets me afire

Well now my hot little mama makes me alarmed
She can do more damage than the whole H-bomb

She's my hot hot little mama
Hot hot little mama
Hot little mama
She really sets me afire
Set me afire, baby

Yeah my hot hot little mama
Hot hot little mama
She’s my hot hot little mama
Hot hot little mama
Hot little mama
And she really sets me afire
Yeah hot little mama
She really sets me afire
That’s right

LAY BY MY SIDE (Arguello/Manca ©Tremolo Editions Productions)

A voice inside my head, is it true ?
The pain inside my chest, sure is you
Is it too much to ask ?
Let’s just forget the past
My love let’s just try again
I promise it won’t be the same
 
You’d love me till the end, where are you ?
A refrain that never stops
When everything is lost
A time when you walked away
Was it the price I had to pay ?
 
Lay by my side, look into my eyes
Sun will dry those tears away
Lay by my side, I ’m begging you to stay
And the pain will go away
So easy to say
 
Your smile is all i need to go on
Life is no worth living since you’re gone
Why can’t we just prétend
That you are still my friend
We’ll walk and you’ll grab my hand
I know that you can understand
 
Our love will fade away with the months
Your eyes were not so bright
It wasn’t worth a fight
A past now that it’s all gone
Maybe it’s time to run away
 
Lay on your back Look into the skies
It is time to run away
Lay on your back Look into the stars
It is time to run away

DOWN PAYMENT BLUES (Young/Young/Scott-Arr.Manca©Australian Music Corporation Pty Ltd/BMG Rights Management)

I know that it's evil
I know that it's gotta be
I know I ain't doing much
Doing nothing means a lot to me
Living on a shoestring
A fifty cent millionaire
Open to charity
Rock 'n' roll welfare

Sitting in my Cadillac
Listening to my radio
Suzy baby get on in
Tell me where she wanna go
I'm living in a nightmare
She's looking like a wet dream
I got myself a Cadillac
But I can't afford the gasoline

I got holes in my shoes
And I'm way overdue
Down payment blues

Get myself a steady job
Some responsibility
Can't even feed my cat
On social security
Hiding from the rent man
Oh it makes me wanna cry
Sheriff knocking on my door
Ain't it funny how the time flies

Sitting on my sailing boat
Sipping on my champagne
Suzy baby all at sea
Say she wanna come again
Feeling like a paper cup
Floating down a storm drain
Got myself a sailing boat
But I can't afford a drop of rain

I got holes in my shoes
And I'm way overdue
Down payment blues

Down payment blues
Down payment blues
Down payment blues

I got holes in my shoes
And I'm way overdue
I got the down payment blues
