The Deluxe Edition (not the Super-Duper Deluxe Edition) doesn't have the lyrics. There are a few that look like full lyrics, but when you actually hear the song, they're almost nothing alike. They're obviously very early incarnations of the eventual songs.

Bit of a pisser, really - JFPL's deluxe edition didn't have one of the tracks from the standard edition, and PFAYM's deluxe edition doesn't have the lyrics. Maybe the deluxe edition for the next album will be third time lucky?

Can anyone with the other versions confirm if the final lyrics are in any of them? I hate it when albums don't have the lyrics in them, due to being a bit of a hearing spastic.

To be honest I've been trying to sing along to some of the songs and have of the words aren't even there. I know they probably changed some bits and bobs to fit the music or whatever but there's a few songs where there are full verses not even written in the booklet as far as I can see. Oh well, I just make my own words up half the time anyway to what suits me

I could't even read any of that to tell the difference.

What's the super deluxe edition? Is there yet another format?

As I mentioned in another thread, digital booklet contains the official lyrics (that, as it seems to me are, I don't know, 80% accurate), but it's 1:06 a.m. here so I won't be able to share them all today I can do any single one right now, which one would you like?

I think he/she's gone to bed..
Here you go:

I Think I Found It

i think i found it
and i think i love it
buried in the dirt
hiding from the light
so i walked to the sea
threw a pebble in for you and me
a day of wine and roses
has made me feel alive

my letter was burnt
but your words were wise
for mystery and youth must surely collide

a song of anti-matter
which might explain the absence
of any precious jewels of truth to save mankind
i think i found it
and i think i love it
buried in the dirt
hiding from the light

my letter was burnt
but your words were wise
for mystery and youth must surely collide

these things i've seen brings tears to my eyes
live with me through
the threads of our lives

I want to know if that word in GP is 'economist' or 'communist'.

And what does Mac sing on SKON? I think it sounds like 'There's beauty there or nothing at all...' but, I'm probably wrong!

"Born to be a communist but then the marriage failed"

and

"There's beauty doing nothing at all"

(It's Not War) Just The End Of Love

Quote:
To feel forgiveness you got to forgive
Do you see the stars or the darkness begin
You fight your war I'll fight for my life
You pay your dues and I will pay mine

It's not war - just the end of love
Just like before
But it's never enough - it's never enough

You fight your war I'll fight for my life
You pay your dues and I will pay mine
To feel forgiveness you got to forgive
It's lost on me I believe in revenge

It's not war - just the end of love
You've got the looks
But I've got the scars

It's not war - just the end of love
To feel some tenderness
Do you have to give up - do you have to give up - do you have to give up

It's not war - just the end of love
Just like before but it's never enough

It's not war - just the end of love
You weathered the storm
But sheltered the loss
Sheltered the loss
