Mental As Anything - Live It Up Lyrics
How can you see looking through those tears
Don't you know you're worth your weight in gold
I can't believe that you're alone in here
Let me warm your hands against the cold
Who never gave half of what he got
Has made you wish you'd never been born
That's a shame cause you got the lot
Hey yeah you with the sad face
Come up to my place and live it up
You beside the dance floor
What do you cry for let's live it up
If you smiled the walls would fall down
But if you laughed you'd level this town
Hey lonely girl that's just the point
Hey yeah you with the sad face
Come up to my place and live it up
You beside the dance floor
What do you cry for let's live it up
Just answer me the question why
You stand alone by the phone in the corner and cry
How can you see looking through those tears
Don't you know you're worth your weight in gold
I can't believe that you're alone in here
Let me warm your hands against the cold
If you smiled the walls would fall down
On all the people in this pickup joint
But if you laughed you'd level this town
Hey lonely girl that's just the point
Hey yeah you with the sad face
Come up to my place and live it up
You beside the dance floor
What do you cry for let's live it up
Let's live it up
Live it up
Mmm live it up
Hey yeah you
With the sad face
Come up to my place
Come up to my place baby
Hey yeah you with the sad face
Come up to my place and live it up
You beside the dance floor
What do you cry for let's live it up
You with the sad face
Come up to my place and live it up
You beside the dance floor
What do you cry for let's live it up

'Live It Up' by Mental As Anything
How can you see looking through those tears?
Don't you know you're worth your weight in gold?
I can't believe that you're alone in here
Let me warm your hands against the cold
A close encounter with a hardhearted man
Who never gave half of what he got
Has made you wish that you'd never been born
That's a shame 'cause you got the lot
Hey there, you with a sad face
Come up to my place and live it up
You beside the dance floor
What do you cry for, let's live it up
If you smiled the walls would fall down
On all the people in this pickup joint
But if you laughed you'd level this town
Hey lonely girl, that's just the point
Hey there, you with a sad face
Come up to my place and live it up
You beside the dance floor
What do you cry for, let's live it up..
Just answer me the question why
You stand alone by the phone
In the corner and cry!
HEY BABY!!!
*Solo*
How can you see looking through those tears
Don't you know you're worth your weight in gold
I can't believe that you're alone in here
Let me warm your hands against the cold
If you smiled the walls would fall down
On all the people in this pickup joint
But if you laughed you'd level this town
Hey lonely girl, that's just the point
Hey there, you with a sad face
Come up to my place and live it up
You beside the dance floor
What do you cry for, let's live it up
Let's live it up, live it up
Uhhhhh, Iive it up
HEY THERE! YOU!!!
With a sad face
Come up to my place
Come up to my place, baby...
Hey there, you..
RIP Greedy Smith
R.I.P Andrew "Greedy" Smith!

Ha, ha, this band really knows to get their fun, even it means they have to dream it up themselves. 'Cause, as you know, everyone hates jazz, even Johnny.
Rest in Peace 'Greedy'
