the SEPTEMBER CLUES soundtrack LYRICS and CREDITS |
Most of the music used for the September Clues soundtrack are songs I wrote for my live project/and 5-piece band, "The Social Service". Our stage set-up can be pretty hairy - at times complete with circus-acrobatics !
TAKE A BREAK
You need to take a break - Take a break,
I need to take break -Take a break
Take a break, - Make no mistake
You need to take a break
Take a break, take a break
Take a break - Make no mistake
You need to take a break
Take a break, take a break
Tell me what you have to say

Tell me what you have to say
I’ll listen to you all the time

NIAGARA
I see the sun I see the moon I see the beauty
In your eyes
I see the sun I see the moon I see the beauty
In your eyes
I see the sun - in your eyes

In your eyes
I see the sun - in your eyes
I see the beauty - in your eyes
WILD
I see the light - Over me
I take a ride - To see the sun
The light goes round
I fail to see the sun
Everyone has got to come
Everyone has got to come
I see the light - Over me
I take a ride - To see the sun
The light goes round
I fail to see the sun
Everyone has got to come
Everyone has got to come
PLEASE
Please don’t ask me
To explain - Please
Please
Please - don’t ask me
Please - don’t ask me
Please don’t ask me
To explain
How to live or die
Or how to survive in space
Please - don’t ask me
To explain
Please - don’t ask me
Don’t ask me – to explain
SLIMEBOX (a tribute to Frank Zappa)
(sampled choir)
I am the slime from your video
Oozin along on your living room floor
I am the slime from your video
Cant stop the slime, people, look at me go
SPEED
As life goes by
I never hurry
I never worry
I’m in no hurry to die
As life
Goes by
As life goes by
I never hurry
I never worry
I’m in no hurry to die
JAHMAN
When the writing’s on the wall
When the writing’s on the wall
You draw a line across your mind
When the writing’s on the wall
You turn around to see if I’m still around
When the writing’s on the wall
You see the world spinning round
For tonight I’ll pray
For tonight I’ll pray
When the writing’s on the wall
The writing’s on the wall
The writing’s on the wall
No oh no oh Jah no no
When the writing’s on the wall
TIME OUT
’Good morning Sir, it’s nine thirty,
Time for you to save the planet !’
Look at me, I’m down by law
Look at we, We’re down by law
You have no right to tell me
Time isn’t running out
You have no right to tell me
Time isn’t running out
Look at me, I’m down by law
Look at we, We’re down by law
You have no right to tell me
Time isn’t running out
You have no right to tell me
Time isn’t running out
WONDERFOOL WORLD
(Latest news from the Milano stock exchange)
It’s a wonderfool, wonderfool world, wonderfool world!
GRAY
What will you do when the work is done
When you’ve finished everything
All the chores, all the things you never want to do
What will you do when the work is done, where will you go?
What will you do when the work is done?…
I’ll be sailing
To the island of the monkey and the spring
I’ll be sailing
Looking for the island of the spring
What will you do when the work is done?
What will you do…when the work is done?
I’ll be sailing
Well you know I miss my naking of my dream
I’ll be sailing
Running after plastic monies on the reef
Let go, Let go
Where will you go when the work is done ?
I wonder...
SEVEN SEAS (a Eurythmics tribute)
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree
Travelled the world and the seven seas
Everybody’s looking for something
Looking for something
Sweet dreams are made of this
Coz I – I’ll never disagree
And you - you’ll never see
Travelled the world and the seven seas
Everybody’s looking for something
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree
Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree
Travelled the world and the seven seas
Everybody’s looking for something
Looking - for something...
WOMB
When the stars will start to shine
We’ll be moving in the womb
When the stars will start to shine
We’ll be moving in the womb
What I’m telling you – what I’m telling you
What I’m telling you – what I’m telling you
Is the truth
What I’m telling you – what I’m telling you – what I’m telling you
We’ll be moving in the womb
When the stars will start to shine
We’ll be moving in the womb
What I’m telling you – what I’m telling you– what I’m telling you
DREAMS
All these funny dreams I do
Like swimming in the air
Or maybe
Riding on a gentle storm
While I just don’t seem to care
If I should ever fall
If I should ever fall
I just don’t seem to care
All these funny dreams I do
Like swimming in the air
Riding on a gentle storm
While I just don’t seem to care
If I should ever fall
I FALL DOWN
I’M FALLING DOWN
I FALL DOWN
I’M FALLING DOWN
Funny how those scary dreams
They seem to make me laugh
I store the pictures of my mind
With all the cheesy photographs
I FALL DOWN
I’M FALLING DOWN
I FALL DOWN
I’M FALLING DOWN
THE SOCIAL SERVICE
I've been under a steady storm of enquiries regarding the September Clues music and my (currently idle) band - a great morale booster in these tough days for struggling musicians... So now I've finally found the time to put together and remix a 17-track album: It should at least save me from further laments from my old Norwegian buddy in Rome (a former vitriolic music critic) who was getting petulant : "Simon, I'm getting raving mad at having to upload your damn videos on my PC to play that terrific soundtrack! I want it in my car - now!" To be perfectly honest, my Norwegian friend isn't the only soul impatient with me: the "Social Service" band members are twisting my arms to get back touring on a regular basis - and take a break with my world-saving efforts... It's going to happen, folks, it's going to happen - start booking the band NOW!
THE BAND
