Almost Anything

ALMOST ANYTHING
Sitting in the shade
Of a summers day
And it feels like
I can be almost anything
And I wonder
How to make you mine
And I wonder
We’ve got all the time we need
To be where we wanna be
We’ve got everything we need
To be, who we wanna be
And what are you to me?
What am I to you?
I think I’ll go back to
Lexington Avenue
I think I’ll go back
Lexington Avenue
And I wonder
How to make you mine
And I wonder
We’ve got all the time we need
To be where we wanna be
We’ve got everything we need
To be, who we wanna be
And the sun is shining for you and me
And the trees are swaying for you and me
And the band are playing for you and me
Yeah the band are playing for you and me
The sun is shining…

Animal

ANIMAL
I see a little boy not a man
In his hand an empty beer can
A cigarette to light the way
Indifferent I say
I’m an animal baby
I’m a wild one sugar
I’m a vampire mister
I’m a werewolf honey
At night the city turns into a zoo
The streets are paved for me and for you
And there ain’t nothin’ I’d rather do
Than someone like you
I’m an animal baby
I’m a wild one honey
I’m a vampire sister
I’m a werewolf mamma
And when the dust has taken effect
All my fears have been laid to rest
Out of my head, out of my mind
I’m crackin’ up
I’m crackin’ up
I’m crackin’ up
I’m an animal baby
I’m a wild one sugar
I’m a vampire mister
I’m a werewolf honey

Can't Walk Out

CAN’T WALK OUT
Hey, I can’t decide my fate
I know it’s getting late
I can’t afford to wait
Hey, It’s not the change you bring
It’s not the mood I’m in
It’s not the song I sing
Upside down and inside out
Head is gone
Upside down and inside out
My head is gone I can’t walk out
Hey, It’s ninety-eight degrees
You’ve got me on my knees
You’ve got me beggin’ please
Hey It’s not that I am blind
It’s just that I can’t find
What’s goin’ through your mind
Upside down and inside out
Head is gone
Upside down and inside out
My head is gone I can’t walk out
Hey, It’s not the suit I wear
It’s not the pills I swear
It’s not that I don’t care
Hey, I’m proppin’ up the bar
Three chords and this guitar
Look out, we’ve gone too far
Upside down and inside out
Head is gone
Upside down and inside out
My head is gone I can’t walk out
Too many vodkas, not enough coke
Too many vodkas, not enough coke
Too many vodkas, not enough coke
I swear
My head is gone

DIRTY DOG
I’m a dirty dog / Got no shame at all
I’m a dirty dog / Got no shame at all
I’m a dirty dog / Cause I like you
I’m a son of a gun / You’re a pretty one
I’m a son of a gun / You’re a pretty one
I’m a son of a gun / Cause I like you
Wanna be your man / Like nobody can
Wanna be your man / Like nobody can
Wanna be your man / Cause I like you
Gonna chase you down / Run all over town
Gonna chase you down / Run all over town
Gonna chase you down / Cause I like you
Goin straight to hell / When I ring your bell
Goin straight to hell / When I ring your bell
Goin straight to hell / Cause I like you
I’m a dirty dog / Got no shame at all
I’m a dirty dog / Got no shame at all
I’m a dirty dog / Cause I like you

Love Don't Get Me High

LOVE DON’T GET ME HIGH
You’re not my honey pie
You’re not my butterfly anymore
You’re not my nicotine
You’re not my beauty queen anymore
Honey, your love don’t get me high
And I don’t really mind anymore
Honey, your love don’t get me high
And I don’t really mind anymore
You’re not my saving grace
You’re not my sweet embrace anymore
You’re not my ball and chain
You’re not my pure cocaine anymore
Honey, your love don’t get me high
And I don’t really mind anymore
Honey, your love don’t get me high
And I don’t really mind anymore
I’m singing a new song…

Roses

ROSES
I’ll write another love song
And drop it on your head
I’ll wave to you each morning
Say things I’ve never said
I’d like to bring you roses
But roses only fade
There ain’t no use in faking
So here’s a song instead
I wish the world could witness
The love you bring to me
Like Santa Claus at Christmas
True love’s a mystery
You know I never left you
You never let me go
We’ve always been connected
It’s time I let you know
We’ll always be connected
It’s time I let you know
Alone alone alone alone
Alone alone alone alone
We’ll never be

SEVEN
Roaming
I’m roaming the range again
It’s good to be back again
Roaming the range
Strolling
Strolling down Camden Street
Here’s to the ones we meet
Roaming the range
I’ve got number seven on my back
Feels like a heart attack
No use in looking back
Roaming the range
Guess it’s too late
Could have been great
If we’d only got our story straight
It could have been you and me
‘Sold Out’ to capacity
Roaming the range
Drifting
We’re drifting down memory lane
Nothing looks quite the same
Roaming the range
I’ve got number seven on my back
Feels like a heart attack
No use in looking back
Roaming the range
Never too late
Still could be great
If we only got our story straight
It could have been you and me
‘Sold Out’ to capacity
Roaming the range

Turn Around

TURN AROUND
Dancing to the beat
Swaying on my feet
Running outta time
Wishing you were mine
I know what you want
I know what you need
I know just where you get it from
I came for the ride
And I just can’t decide
Where I’m gonna sleep tonight
You better turn around
Take your time
Dancing in the heat
Swaying on my feet
Running outta time
Wishing you were mine
I know what you want
I know what you need
I know just where you get it from
I came for the ride
And I just can’t decide
Who it’s gonna be tonight
You better turn around
Take your time
Turn around
Take your time
Honey be mine

BEAD Ireland
Dave Dwyer has used the moniker ‘Bead’ ™ since first playing Whelans of Wexford Street in
1994.
After seeing a poster in Tower Records, I got the idea to work with Morrissey‘s guitarist Boz Boorer. I travelled to Portugal and recorded the Battle Stations album and the Country Mountain EP.
