"Shineaway" as written by Richard Lofthouse Butler and Brian Wayne Transeau....
Mary wants to shoot the world
She doesn't want to be a girl
There's a shame
And I'm here somewhere in-between
The blue skies and the dirty sea
Sleeping in
Your mother's little house is gone
You're staring at the telephone
The moon is hanging like a stone
Just waiting 'till the morning comes
Just calm down, Mary, shineaway
Calm down, Mary, shineaway
Calm down, Mary, shineaway
Calm down, Mary, shineaway
Calm down, Mary, shineaway
Taste of morning cigarettes and coffee
When you're laying in bed
Beathing in
And I'm here somewhere in-between
The blue skies and the dirty sea
Sleeping in
Your mother's little house is gone
You're staring at the telephone
The moon is hanging like a stone
Just waiting 'till the morning comes
Just calm down, Mary, shineaway
Calm down, Mary, shineaway
Calm down, Mary, shineaway
Calm down, Mary, shineaway
Calm down, Mary, shineaway
She doesn't want to be a girl
There's a shame
And I'm here somewhere in-between
The blue skies and the dirty sea
Sleeping in
Your mother's little house is gone
You're staring at the telephone
The moon is hanging like a stone
Just waiting 'till the morning comes
Just calm down, Mary, shineaway
Calm down, Mary, shineaway
Calm down, Mary, shineaway
Calm down, Mary, shineaway
Calm down, Mary, shineaway
Taste of morning cigarettes and coffee
When you're laying in bed
Beathing in
And I'm here somewhere in-between
The blue skies and the dirty sea
Sleeping in
Your mother's little house is gone
You're staring at the telephone
The moon is hanging like a stone
Just waiting 'till the morning comes
Just calm down, Mary, shineaway
Calm down, Mary, shineaway
Calm down, Mary, shineaway
Calm down, Mary, shineaway
Calm down, Mary, shineaway
