The Damned - The Light at the End of the Tunnel Lyrics






I Feel Alright

Hey Keith...

Outa my mind on a Saturday night
Nineteen seventy seven baby is rollin' in sight
Radio burning up above
Beautiful baby be my love

Alright feel cool always
Alright feel cool always
I feel alright

Where's your baby burn my heart
Take your baby burn my heart
Fall apart now baby fall apart
Where's your baby burn my heart

Alright feel cool always
Alright feel cool always
I feel alright

Outa my mind on a Saturday night
Nineteen seventy seven baby is rollin' in sight
Radio burning up above
Beautiful baby be my love

Alright feel cool always
Alright feel cool always
I feel alright

Anything

I tear into my clothes
Sacrifice my soul for anything, anything
I gotta clear this town
No sense in hanging around
Cause anything anything anything
Is better than this

Where can the action be
To fill this need in me
Cause anything anything anything
Is better than this

I am the wicked boy
Who takes your favourute toy
Or anything anything
You show me someone
Who doesn't want no fun
Or anything anything anything
Is better than

I could never be
What you need in me anything
I could never be
What you see in me anything
I can take alot
I'll just take a shot at anything
What you got

I'll make my girl scream
I'll be her love machine anywhere
Anyway
She only wants my tricks
But we do have our kicks
At anything anything
Is better than this

I'm out of control
Sacrifice my soul for
Anything anything anything
Is better than this

I could never be
What you see in me anything
I could never be
What you see in me anything

Lovely Money

They come to see the dungeons here
The tourists flock from far and near
They do the tower and try the beer

The picking pockets cost your life
And every jury has a price
They bring the kids and show the wife

It makes them proud to be around
And take their summer piccies
To drink at night in Soho bars
And end up feeling sickie
And we're all making money
Lovely money

Rubber necks with cash to burn
Export criminals return
They keep on coming, never learn

They fill their diaries page by page
And make it sound so thrilling
They're searching for the real thing
They're flushed and they are willing
And we're all making money
Lovely money

The victors of the opium wars
Now take their trips and open doors
They stand upon the actual floors
Actual floors, actual floors

It makes them proud to be around
And take their summer piccies
To drink at night in Soho bars
And end up feeling sickie

More money, more money
More money, more money

Now off you go, away you fly
We've had your money now goodbye
We fleeced you good we bled you dry
Goodbye goodbye

Thanks For The Night

Well, thanks for the night
The swag and a lovely affray
Thanks for the night
You give and we take it away

It was a smash and grab conflab
An all-night show and we weren't nabbed
A thrill for one-and-all, a ball
Join us or be a fool
Thanks for the night

Well, I know a place
Where we can have fun tonight
Yeah, I know a place
Where we can be one tonight

Old Bill, and Ben and all his friends will be there
Standing in a row
The News at Ten and ITN will be there
Don't be slow

The fires ignite
All down the road
The scene explodes and I say:
"It's been alright
Thanks for the night"

A fine affair
The narcs are there
And we don't care 'cause I say:
"It's been alright
Thanks for the night"

The fires ignite
All down the road
The scene explodes and I say
"It's been alright
Thanks for the night"

A fine affair
The narcs are there
And we don't care 'cause I say:
"It's been alright
Thanks for the night"

All down the road
The scene explodes and I say:

Plan 9 Channel 7

She plays her mouth into a smile
And offers that he stay a while
Two hearts that beat as one
And eyes that hardly ever saw the sun
Hollywood babbles on
She lays a wreath of lilies on his grave
His flame gone along with the love he never gave
Not to be seduced by those red lips
Two dimensional comic clips
Hollywood babbles on
on and on and on and on and...

Channel 7, with shades of grey
Too close but two worlds away
Plan 9, hello may
Too close but two worlds away

Step into the night

She plays her mouth into a smile
And offers that he stay a while
Two hearts that beat as one
And eyes that hardly ever saw the sun
Hollywood babbles on
She lays a wreath of lilies on his grave
His flame gone along with the love he never gave
Not to be seduced by those red lips
Two dimensional comic clips

Grimly Fiendish


Grimly fiendish
Plays the game that never pays
Sing out loud but never prayed


Grimly fiendish
Wears a coat thats black and long
He doesn't know that it's all wrong


Simply fiendish
A child caught in a grown up world
No lies convince the court
Once a week I could be
Found on the faces all the frowns
Hide and seek tried so hard
To justify that crime could pay
Just for today


Bad bad bad boy

Bad bad bad boy

Let me get the story straight
You never gave me a break
It's a case of give and take
You didn't make me good you just painted me green
You made me part of your forgotten dream


Grimly fiendish
We'll send you just where you belong
Where the children can't be found


Bad bad bad boy
Bad bad bad boy
Bad bad bad boy

Stranger On The Town


Did you ever see a man turned inside out
He can come and go without a sound
They say ok when they turn you down
'Cos someones always smiling when they really frown

You turf me out can't keep me down
'Cos I'm a stranger on the town
Don't put me down

And I only want a place to rest my head
But if looks could kill I might as well be dead
Get me on my feet take me to the door
I'll face the law might even get a bed

You turf me out can't keep me down
'Cos I'm a stranger on the town
Don't put me down
You turf me out can't keep me down
'Cos I'm a stranger on the town
Don't put me down

Don't need me
Won't feed me now
Just say the word
Just smile as I'm thrown out

You turf me out can't keep me down
'Cos I'm a stranger on the town
Don't put me down

And the city's new so the faces change
I know they're different yet they act the same
I've read the script and I know the score
I know it's only time before I'm shown the door

You turf me out can't keep me down
'Cos I'm a stranger on the town
Don't put me down
You turf me out can't keep me down
'Cos I'm a stranger on the town
Don't put me down

I've got some money
So do you love me now?
Now will you run me out
And they wonder why I shout

Even in a crowd when you're all alone
It's so far from home there's faces all around
They stare mean and proud you've gotta get away
You gotta get away

So I'm a stranger
And though you put me down you know I
Aint no clown and you're a stranger
'Cause I'll see you around
When the chips are down

And I'm a stranger on the town....

Ooh ooh the city's new the faces change
I know they're different yet they act the same

'Cos I'm a stranger on the town

And I only wanna place to rest my head
If looks could kill I might as well be dead

'Cos Im a stranger on the town
Yes I am

And everyone tries to put you down
Nobody wants to have you around

'Cos I'm a stranger on the town
Yes I am

My mind's on when she falls asleep
Feelin' fine in her restless time
Then these words upon me creep

Alone Again Or


Yeah I said it's alright
I won't forget
All the times
I waited patiently for you
As you do just what you choose to do
And I will be alone again tonight my dear


Yeh I heard a funny thing
Somebody said to me
That you could be in love
With almost anyone
You think people are the greatest fun
And I will be alone again tonight for you


Hey I said its alright
You know I won't forget
All the times
I waited patiently for you
Now, you do just what
You choose to do
And I will be alone again tonight its true

Is It A Dream

Stand in a line like a parking meter
Am I all alone (he's all alone)
A vision of mine is becoming clear
Its all so new it can't be true
Sometimes the words appear in my head
Sometimes I'm falling out of my bed


Oh, is it a dream
What does it mean
Oh is it a dream
What have I seen


I know a man he's really awful nice
He isn't here
We whiled away an evening maybe two
But what did that man really do
Sometimes I feel like walking away
Sometimes there's something I've got to say


Oh, is it a dream
What does it mean
Oh is it a dream
What have I seen


Then suddenly
Like a fly in a cup of tea
I'm stirred and no longer free
To fly away
I think back to the other life
That was borrowed the other night
Could It be that it just might
Drive me wild


Oh is it a dream
Oh is it a dream
Oh is it a dream
Oh is it a dream


Am I dreaming?

We've been crying now for much too long
And now we're gonna dance to a different song
I'm gonna scream and shout til my dying breath
I'm gonna smash it up til there's nothing left

Oh oh smash it up, smash it up, smash it up
Oh oh smash it up, smash it up, smash it up

People call me villain oh its such a shame
Maybe its my clothes must be to blame
I don't even care if I look a mess
Don't want to be a sucker like all the rest

Oh oh smash it up, smash it up, smash it up
Oh oh smash it up, smash it up, smash it up

Smash it up, you can keep your Krishna burgers
Smash it up, and your Glastonbury hippies
Smash it up, you can stick your frothy lager
Smash it up, and your blow wave hairstyles

And everybody's smashing things down

Psychomania

Psychomania, Psychomania

She is the substance of my dreams
A spectre in the wind
Take my dare, take me there
On the trail of the jewel trail
If you've got a notion
Like a bullet set in motion
Shining chrome shiny leather
Penetrate the night forever

Psychomania, Psychomania

The pleasure of the beast
Cursing through our veins
Burn the night burn the day
A burning light on our a mounlight flight
Everything blurs in the shadow
Straight and true shot like an arrow
Tales of love tales of terror
Ghost-riders go hell for leather
Psychomania, drives me crazier
Psychomania
Psychomania

Everything blurs in the shadow
Straight and true shot like an arrow
Tales of love tales of terror
Ghost-riders go hell for leather
Streak the night with our burning flight
Crimson eyes that blur in the twilight
Psychomania, drives me crazier
Psychomania, drives me crazier
Everything blurs in the shadow
Straight and true shot like an arrow
Like a spectre in the wind
She is the substance of my dreams
Psychomania, drives me crazier

Curtain Call

Can you taste the grit
Between your teeth
The heat of the lights
The crack of the whip
The snapping sound
Of someone's nerves
If you pay you get
What you deserve

Were coming up from the deep
The lizard sheds it's skin
Night obliterates the day
And all the fun begins
Shadow boxing with yourself
Just seems to get you nowhere
You don't want to cheat
When playing solitare

Three faces come alive
Try and focus and be one
never let it be said that
The jester comes undone
A wreckless gambling pace
With time enough to borrow
Time enough to measure
All of our tomorrows

Curtain call and light go dim
Tragedy, love all lie within
Each player takes his chance to play
And lives to fight another day

What boundries to cross
What chances for the taking
Stepping in the angels wake
Not to be foresaken

No more will I roam
Our childish dreams are soon outgrown
But here we stand
In our own theatreland
Curtain call
About to fall

Twilight comes and the mood's complete
Gonna hit the street grab some of that night time beat
My heart is beat beat beating like a drum
The night is in my veins we're gonna have some fun tonight

Light the fuse I must ignite
I'm gonna set the world alight
Light the fuse I must ignite
I'm gonna set the world alight

I wanna see you burn

I killed the cigarette I killed the light
I'm killing time the heat kills me on a hot summer night
I'm gonna dream a life live a dream
Hell for leather in my scheme of things tonight

Help!

Help, I need somebody,
Help, not just anybody,
Help, you know I need someone,
Help!

When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in anyway.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind, I've opened up the
Doors.

Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being 'round.
Help me get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me?

And now my life has changed in oh so many ways,
My independence seems to vanish in the haze.
But every now and then I feel so insecure,
I know that I just need you like, I've never done
Before.

Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being 'round.
Help me get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me?

When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in anyway.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind, I've opened up the
Doors.

Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being 'round.
Help me get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me?
Help me,
Help me,
Oooo.

Rabid (Over You)

I read about a bug eyed mad dog
Taking London in a storm
I heard about a blue eyed heroine
Screaming out for help
I held my breath as ten claws
Came through the cabin door
And timeing forces slipped a cross
The trator'sticky core

I was just a hero of the human race
But monsters keep on trying
To take control of space

I heard about a great new movie
That took the world by storm
People said the effects were groovy
The plot was personal
The garbage was whiter than white
The villain mostly dark
The hero was enlightened by light
Dogs began to bark

I was just a hero of the human race
But monsters keep on trying
To take control of space

You treat me like a dog
Give me a bone to chew
Frothing at the mouth
Frothing all over you
Yeah I get rabid over you
I'm kind of rabid over you
I'm kind of rabid over you

Your daddy's got a gun
He's gonna put me down
Compliments of public health
Horror teenage town
Yeah I've been bitten over you
I'm kind of rabid over you
I'm kind of rabid over you

Rabid rabid rabid
I can't stand the rain (rabid)
Water on the brain (rabid)
I'm kind of rabid over you
I just gotta hide (rabid)
I want to bite (rabid)
I'm kind of rabid over you

I can't stand the rain (rabid)

There's no feeling fine without being fined

No point being sad when justice is red

I wanna come home at 3AM

Nasty

Catch the tide at the blood
My TV screen is sick and blood
My walls and floors are it too
The night is comin' after you

Cram the innocent with screams of pain
It coming for you again and again
There's no escape
There's no way out

Catch, catch a horror taxi
I fell in love with my video nasty
Catch, catch a horror train
A freeze frame goin' to drive you insane

The axe is sharp
And the blade is keen
Creatures spillin' from the screen
Shadows fall and all is gloom
You're not so safe
In the safety of your room

All I want is to make a killing
To thrill and kill might be really thrilling
Why are my victims so unwilling
You can be sure that you won't see me
With that action meany

Catch, catch a horror taxi
I fell in love with my video nasty
Catch, catch a horror train
A freeze frame goin' to drive you insane

Catch, catch a horror taxi
I fell in love with my video nasty

Take my hand disco man
Are you just a one night stand?
Have some fun jump the gun
But what's left when it's all done

But who are you taking for a ride
Disco Man
Better to run or else to hide
Disco Man

Tall and neat watch his feet
Got the jist he's all complete
Understand disco man's
Heading for the garbage can

Have you just crossed a bridge too far
Disco Man
Jump in a cab and steal a car
the worse in the land
Disco Man
one night stand
Disco Man
I can't understand
Disco Man

What are you doing
Your life's in a ruin
You're out of our head
You ought to be dead

Down the stairs no-one cares
He who wins is he who dares
Rock n Roll lose control
Just forget you're on the dole

But who are you taking for a ride

Better to run or else to hide
worst in the land

Are you ready

Is she really going out with him?

I got a feeling inside of me
It's kind of strange like a stormy sea
I don't know why I don't know why
I guess these things have got to be

I gotta new rose I got her good
Guess I knew that I always would
I can't stop to mess around
I got a brand new rose in town

See the sun see the sun it shines
Don't get too close or it'll burn your eyes
Don't you run away that way
You can come back another day

I got a new rose I got her good
Guess I knew that I always would
I can't stop to mess around
I got a brand new rose in town

I never thought this could happen to me
This is strange why should it be
I don't deserve somebody this great
I'd better go or it'll be too late

I got a feeling inside of me
It's kind of strange like a stormy sea

Hey man, what's happening?

I'll be the ticket if you're my collector
I've charge the fare if you're my inspector
I'll be the luggage if you'll be the porter
I'll be the parcel if you'll be my sorter

Just for you here's a love song
Just for you here's a love song
And it makes me glad to say
It's been a lovely day

I'll be the mail you'll be the guard
I'll be the ink on your season ticket card
I'll be the rubbish you'll be the bin
I'll be the paint on the sign if you'll be the tin

Feel The Pain


I know you're cold but I've seen it before
I'll take a chance on the wine
Your starched white lips introvenous she drips
In fear of turning blind
Hair to grey and some guys say
Shows you're shows you're growing old
Do it again I can't explain
The light sure seems cold

Feel the pain it leaves no stain
Feel the pain the name of the game

Drop some blues time to choose
Why your heart is just a stabbing
Bloody eyes can't describe
The nature of your hacking
Back to front the blade tastes blunt
In the safety of your bedroom
No desire to touch the fire
It's just a just a sad obsession

Feel the pain
It leaves no stain (leaves no stain)
Feel the pain
The name of the game
Feel the pain
It leaves no stain (leaves no stain)
Feel the pain
The name of the game Feel the pain
Feel the pain

The History of the World (Part 1)

I just hit the ground ,boy have I arrived
Tell the dinosaurs,they just won't survive
So I fell,and you just laughed
You think that I canr satnd
To see me trip this way
You think I'm second hand
I have seen it all,she's the only one
She belongs to me,I'm the lonely one
Counting sheep and swatting flies
You think there's no more left
Talk is cheap,how many lies
Sustain a single breath ?
Adam chance and zorro
Take them with a pinch of salt
Sad about tomorrow
Sorry,but it's not my fault
While they were shoting at the moon
Somebody croaked and no-one heard
What's a sin or two in the history of the world
Some one said to me "why d'ya play so loud?"
What d' you want from me
You corrupt the crowd
Miles of print you'd think we'd thought of
Nothing else
There's more important things than ink and
Decibels
Leave it to tomorrow
Corporal clott and stalingrad
They're the ones to follow
They're the ones,that make me glad
No-one alive and no-one left
Nobody cares or ain't you heard
Looks like I'll take my dying breath
In the history of the world
The history.........of the world...........part one

In Dulce Decorum

Dear mother how I will write this line
When I know I'm counting time
I'm tired and I'm scared
I'm waiting and death's my friend

To say in God we trust not for this
Oh the death and glory boys not for this

Dear beloved try to write to you
Through the senseless deaths of a million troops
I'm waiting my time is near
As my tears wash away my years

To say in God we trust not for this
Oh the death and glory boys not for this

Where I walk where I see
The haunting flares where my friends bleed
I see the face of the enemy
Of a man or boy who is just like me
Now you're not there
All the tears we bled
Cut through like winters rain
Can't you feel the pain

And if I could ever sleep again
I know till the end of time I'd hear
Their screams of pain
Dulce dulce decorum
Dulce dulce decorum
Dulce
Dear mother I'll write to you

Eloise

Every night I'm there
I'm always there
She knows I'm there
And heaven knows
I hope she goes

(Eloise) I find it hard
To realize that love was in her eyes
It's dying now
She knows I'm crying now

And every night I'm there
I break my heart to please
Eloise
Eloise

You know I'm on my knees, yeah
I said please
You're all I want so hear my prayer
My prayer

My Eloise is like the stars that please the night
The sun that makes the day
That lights the way

(Eloise) and when that star goes by
I'll hold it in my hands and cry
Her love was mine
You know my sun will shine

And every night I'm there
I break my heart to please
Eloise
Eloise

You're all I want, you've got to hear my prayer
My prayer

My Eloise
I'd love to please her, I'd like to care
But she's not there
And when I find you
I'd be so kind you'd want to stay
I know you'd stay

And as the days grow old (doo-doo-doo)
The nights grow cold (doo-doo-doo)
I want to hold her near to me (aah-aah)
You know she's dear to me (aah-aah)
And only time will tell (doo-doo-doo)
And take away this lonely hell (doo-doo-doo)
I'm on my knees (aah-aah)
Won't you, my Eloise (aah-aah)

And every night I'm there
I break my heart to please
Eloise
My Eloise

You are my life so hear my prayer
You are the prize, I know you're there
I know you're there
You're all I want, you've got to hear my prayer
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You're all I need but you're not there

Oh no, you're not there
No, no, no, no
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah
My Eloise
Oh, I've got to please her
Oh, my Eloise
Oh, my Eloise, oh, my Eloise
Don't lie to me
I said no, no, no, no
My Eloise

The Shadow Of Love

Don't be afraid to stand in the shadow of love
The hour is late and you know that time waits for no-one


See the glow of the soul in her face
Then you know that you're caught in the shadow of love


A brief embrace and fear and restraint have all gone
Innocence burns yes a fire that burned all along


See the doors about to swing both ways
See the answer mirrored in her gaze
Then you know that you're caught in the shadow of love


Every night, every day
I experience the most exquisite pain
A thousand whispers seem to say
I light a candle to you and I pray
I kneel to pray


Now don't be afraid to get caught in the shadow of love
Play the game take a chance or you haven't the power of love


See the glow of a soul in her face
See the glow of her saving veil of grace
Then you know that you're caught in the shadow of love
You're caught in the shadow of love

Back to: The Damned


The Light at the End of the Tunnel is a double compilation album by the Damned, released by MCA in 1987 as a retrospective collection. The same name was also given to a concurrently released video cassette and an approved band biography by Carol Clerk.

The package was marketed as a greatest hits collection, but while it includes many of the band/s acknowledged standards, several of the songs were album tracks, while others were B-sides or other rarities. This Damned retrospective, however, is the only one to unite studio recordings from all of the studio albums the band had released between 1977 and 1986.

MCA issued the Anything album track "In Dulce Decorum" as a single to support the release. The Light at the End of the Tunnel charted for a week at No. 87 in the UK Album Charts, the band's final chart entry until 2018's Evil Spirits, which reached No. 7.
Performed By: The Damned
Genre(s): Punk rock
Released: November 30th, 1987
