1. Martin Newell - Goodbye Dreaming Fields (03:56)
   Hungry boy with head hung down\nShabby girl in shabby gown\nShould I know your faces?\nYes maybe. You have always been around \nI'm a ghost in my home-town \nSince they knocked that dancehall down \nHigh in summer once ... I knew some girls \nThey are ma
2. Martin Newell - Before The Hurricane (03:03)
   In a country town \nYou can hear them say \nThat it's later now \nThan it seemed to be the other day \nBefore the hurricane \n\nIn a country town \nNothing much has changed \nBut some trees are down \nAnd the view was different in a way \nBefore the hurri
3. Martin Newell - We'll Build A House (02:34)
   Every picture tells a story \nFollow while you can \nThere's a cardboard box for everything \nBut this one holds a man \nI don't believe the tv screen \nI can't think this is real \nAnd I simply cannot help the way I feel \n\nAnd we'll build a house \nAnd
4. Martin Newell - The Greatest Living Englishman (04:32)
   In Liberty bags and pink carnations \nAnd a whistle from Savile Row \nI measured \nAh ... some you win and some you lose \nI never had those guilty blues \n\nHow they'd love to see me now \nA prisoner in the tower \nI was the gretest living Englishman \n
5. Martin Newell - She Rings The Changes (03:58)
   Here she comes, here she comes, here she comes right now \n\n... and so your world turns upside down \nAnd then you lose your precious crown \nYou lose your meter and your rhyme \nAnd you can never turn back time \nBut while you're on your knees down ther
6. Martin Newell - Home Counties Boy (03:17)
   When I was young \nDark were the trees \nHouses are now where there once were fields \nAnd summers were long \nThe trains ran on steam \nI was a boy from the home counties \n\nAnd Don't drop your aitches. \nMy mum said to me \nIf you want a job where your
7. Martin Newell - A Street Called Prospect (03:30)
   She's drifting by the place where she pawned her rings \nStepping out the way of the skateboard kings \nTomorrow could be sweet \nAnd she's living on a street called Prospect \nA girl of many aims \nAnd the beat-box bums, they work in relay teams \nLike a
8. Martin Newell - Christmas In Suburbia (03:30)
   I'm going home for Christmas in suburbia\nWhere the sodium lights are golden in the rain \nOn the plastic and the chrome \nOf the people going home \nThey will jingle-jangle by electric candlelight \nChristmas time\n\nI'll celebrate a shoe-string saturnal
9. Martin Newell - Straight To You Boy (04:47)
   She's a jewel for your crown y'know\nShe's a perfumed stairwell\nA peal of laughter\nWhen she comes to your room y'know?\nThere's a spotlight on her\nFrom your rafter\n\nAnd she knows\nWhere to go\nWhen she's tired or alone\nIt's straight to you, boy\nIt'
10. Martin Newell - The Jangling Man (05:13)
    They're breaking glass and burning buildings\nIn the early greenhouse sun\nThe powers-that-be will blame extremists\nAnd I may well be one\nAnd all you kids in Cardboard City\nI hope you're having fun\nAnd all you voters everywhere\nWill remember what you
11. Martin Newell - The Green-Gold Girl Of The Summer (06:01)
    You would live so fast\nTill your time was past\nLonely runner\nWith a look so fine\nYou could turn dark time\nInto colour\nAnd a garland just for a day\nTill the cheers had faded away\nTo the opium whirl\nOf the green-gold girl of the summer\n\nDo the st
