BILLY

You think you know me

I don't even know me

I'd screw my head off

and lay it at your feet

So you can tell me please

What's on my mind

My curiosity

My sweet complexity

You crush my spirit and you kill my vanity

And I run, run, run, run

From what I feel inside

If I stay here

I'll be nothing

I'll be no-one

So don't hold me back

Just let me go

It's safe in the city

So safe in the city

If I stay here

I'll be nothing

I'll be no-one

So don't hold me back

Just let me go

It's safe in the city

So safe in the city

I don't wanna bite the hand that feeds me

Send me on a rocket to the moon

The city lights and traffic jams excite me

Maybe I've grown up much too soon

If I stay here

I'll be nothing

I'll be no-one

So don't hold me back

Just let me go

It's safe in the city

So safe in the city

It's safe in the city

So safe in the city

FREAK

Philip Sallon and Freaks

PHILIP

Give me a freak

Any day of the week

I'm comfortable with those you call demented

Give me a freak

Not someone meek

With space between their ears that can be rented

I like noise

Aggressive boys

Hookers, thieves and queers and those confused

If you knew

What I knew

You'd be a freak too

FREAKS

Give me a freak

Any day of the week

I'm comfortable with those you call demented

Give me a freak

Not someone meek

With space between their ears that can be rented

I like noise

Aggressive boys

Hookers, thieves and queers and those confused

If you knew

What I knew

You'd be a freak too!

FREAKS

I'm known in all the wrong places

I'm one of those faces

You'll never forget

And those who may not adore me

Could never ignore me

I'm placing a bet

I can be real shallow if I try

But there's so much more to me than meets the eye

My manner can be misconstrued as trite

I'm irrepressible - a creature of the night

I'm known in all the wrong placesI'm one of those faces

You'll never forget

You'll never forget

You'll never forget!

Sung at the same time as...

Give me a freak

Any day of the week

I'm comfortable with those you call demented

Give me a freak

Not someone meek

With space between their ears that can be rented

I like noise

Aggressive boys

Hookers, thieves and queers and those confused

If you knew

What I knew

You'd be a freak too!
