Sometimes I Feel like Screaming (Live at the Olympia, 17th June 1996) Lyrics

While you were out... the message says
You left a number and I tried to call
But they wrote it down in a perfect Spanish scrawl
A perfect Spanish scrawl

Yet again, I'm missing you
King size bed in a hotel someplace
I hear your name; I see your face
I see your face

The backstreet dolls and the side door johnnies
And the wide eyed boys with their bags full of money
Back in the alley, going bang to the wall
Tied to the tail of a midnight crawl
Heaven wouldn't be so high I know
If the times gone by hadn't been so low
The best laid plans come apart at the seams
And shatter all my dreams

Sometimes I feel like screaming
Close my eyes
It's times like this my head goes down
And the only thing I know is the name of this town
The name of this town

Yet again, I'm missing you
Won't be long, I'm coming home
Until that distant time, I'll be moving on
I'll be moving on
The backstreet dolls and the side door johnnies
And the wide eyed boys with their bags full of money
Back in the alley, going bang to the wall
Tied to the tail of a midnight crawl
Heaven wouldn't be so high I know
If the times gone by hadn't been so low
The best laid plans come apart at the seams
And shatter all my dreams

It's all in the mind
It's all in the mind
It's all in the mind
It's all in the mind

The backstreet dolls and the side door johnnies
And the wide eyed boys with their bags full of money
Back in the alley, going bang to the wall
Tied to the tail of a midnight crawl
Heaven wouldn't be so high I know
If the times gone by hadn't been so low
The best laid plans come apart at the seams
And shatter all my dreams

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
