I kept the right ones out
And let the wrong ones in
Had an angel of mercy to see me through all my sins
There were times in my life
When I was goin' insane
Tryin to walk through
The pain
When I lost my grip
And I hit the floor
Yeah, I thought I could leave, but couldn't get out the door
I was so sick and tir......... 
Of livin' a lie
I was wishin that I
Would die

Chorus:

It's Amaz..........
With the blink of an eye you finally see the light ohhh
It's Amaz........................
When the moment arrives that you know you'll be alright yeaah
It's Amaz.........
And I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight

That one last shot's a Permanent Vacation
And how high can you fly with broken wings?
Life's a journey not a destination

And I just can't tell just what tomorrow brings

You have to learn to crawl
Before you learn to walk
But I just couldn't listen to all that righteous talk
I was out on the street
Just tryin' to survive
Scratchin' to stay
Alive




Rtas.;


Tired

Amazing

I used to bite my tongue and hold my breath
Scar........... to rock the boat and make a mess
So I sat quietly, agreed politely
I guess that I forgot I had a choice
I let you push me past the breaking point
I stood for nothing, so I fell for everything

You held me down, but I got up (hey!)
Already brushing off the dust
You hear my voice, your hear that sound
Like thunder, gonna shake your ground
You held me down, but I got up
Get ready 'cause I've had enough
I see it all, I see it now

I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter
Dancing through the fire
'Cause I am the champion, and you're gonna hear me roar
Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion, and you're gonna hear me roar!

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar!

Now I'm floating like a butterfly
Stinging like a bee I earned my stripes
I went from zero, to my own hero

. Rtas:

Scared

Note: the adjective that describes something or someone that scares you is scary.

   Practicá tu Inglés con este gran clásico de Madness: Our House.


. Some words are wrong; listen and change them. (Las rtas. están después de la canción)

Father wears his Monday best
Mother's tired she needs a rest
The kids are playing up upstairs
Sister's sighing in her sleep
Brother's got a date to keep
He can't hang around

Our house, in the middle of our street


Our house it has a crowd
There's always something happening
And it's usually vey loud
Our mum she's so house-proud
Nothing ever slows her down
And a mess is not allowed

Our house, in the middle of our street
Something tells you that you've got to get away from it

Father gets up early for work
Mother has to iron his shirt
Then she sends the children to school
Sees them off with a small kiss
She's the one they're going to miss
In lots of ways

I remember way back then when everything was true and when
We would have such a very good time such a fine time
Such a happy time
And I remember how we'd play simply waste the day away
Then we'd say nothing would come between us two dreamers

Our house, was our castle and our keep
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, that was where we used to sleep
Our house, in the middle of our street


Rtas.:

. his Sunday best
. playind up downstairs
. it's usually quite loud
. Father gets up late for work
. she sends the kids to school

Don't need no other baby, your lovin' is better than gold, and I know

I'd get me four Harajuku girls to
Inspire me, and they'd come to my rescue
I'd dress them wicked, I'd give them names
Love, Angel, Music, Baby, hurry up and come and save me

Come together all over the world
From the hoods of Japan, Harajuku girls
What? It's all love, what? Give it up
What? Shouldn't matter, shouldn't matter
Shouldn't matter, shouldn't matter, what?

Chicks that blew ya mind, ding, it's the second round
Original track and ting, mmm
You know you can't buy these things, no

See Stefani and her L.A.M.B.
I rock the fetish, people, you know who I am
Yes ma'am, we got the style that's wicked, I hope you can all keep up
We climbed all the way from the bottom to the top
Now we ain't gettin' nothin' but love

Na na na na, na na, na na na na, na na

Cause I'd already know
