    Smile The Dreamboys: Outer Limits

    Hi, I have searched on Google forever and can't find the lyrics, but since I am German I don't really understand what the he sings.
    Could you pleeease help me get the lyrics right? Thanks so much!



    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHXCzC2wGlo



    This is what I have so far (Im not sure if its corrects, though):



    Intro:
    We..will..will..will..will..be..be..be

    Verse:
    We met in fancy dress thats how it was to me
    But i never was prepared to cope with all you idiosyncracies
    And in the cold Light of the day things dont always look the same
    I wonder where youre living
    ???
    Always look that way..

    Chorus:
    It was here in the outer limits
    it was all such a long long time ago
    I was so happy, happy in the outer limits
    I just never wanted to go

    Verse:
    ???
    ???
    ???
    Oh yes i know, all i know, is that something wasnt right (correct??)

    -chorus-

    Bridge/ ending:
    ???
    ???
    ???
    ???

    Default Update 'Outer Limits' Lyrics

    Well, I listen to this a lot, and though I couldn't get everything, I got more of it.
    Too bad there isn't a higher quality version to listen to, that would make this a lot easier XD
    Anyway, here's what I got:

    Intro:
    (Real?) x9

    Verse:
    We met in fancy dress, that's how it was to be
    But I never was prepared to cope with all your idiosyncracies
    And in the cold light of the day, things don't always look the same
    I wondered where ??? you ??? always look that way

    Chorus:
    It was here in the outer limits
    It was oh, such a long, long time ago
    I was so happy, happy in the outer limits
    I just never wanted to go, oh!

    Verse:
    What she collected in glass jars, I was ???
    And how she spent all of her evenings, and the rest of us ran tight(?)
    I screamed "Heavens!", I screamed "???", made strange noises in the night
    Ooh, I guess I knew, all along, something wasn't right

    ~Chorus~

    Bridge/Ending:
    Press her to change her her ways
    (I should?)n't even try
    ???
    I'm just an ordinary guy
    But then you caught on, they questioned me, and (well/if?) I had to testify
    ???
    I'm just a regular guy, yeah, yeah!

    [Screaming & Yelling, mostly unintelligble]
    Please, don't ???
    No! I didn't know what she was!
    ???

    I've had a go at transcribing the lyrics of all three songs from this album. Here's what I have so far -- I will come back and update this if I get any further.

    ---

    Bela Lugosi's Birthday:

    I'm up at six ??? and then
    Sliding through another day
    Looking for another place to stay

    In the ???
    Slipping in and moving fast
    That's my way

    All the people
    In all of their houses
    Asleep tonight

    They can't see me
    And they can't hear me
    Close their eyes

    ---

    Outer Limits:

    (We ?) x repeat

    We met in fancy dress, that's how it was to be
    But I never was prepared to cope with all your idiosyncracies
    And in the cold light of the day, things don't always look the same
    I wonder, were you really ill, or did you always look that way?

    It was here in the outer limits
    It was oh, such a long, long time ago
    I was so happy, happy in the outer limits
    I just never wanted to go

    What she collected in glass jars, that was (all of her and not mine ?)
    Because she (spent all of her evenings ?), ??? the rest of us ???
    Her strange habits, her strange hobbies made strange noises in the night,
    Oh, I guess I knew all along something wasn't right

    (chorus)

    I asked her to change her ways, but she didn't even try
    I used to always tell her, "look, look, I'm just a, an ordinary guy"
    But then they caught her, they questioned me, and I had to testify
    But I used to always tell, "I'm just an average guy", no, no

    Oh no
    Please don't take me away
    No
    I didn't know what she was
    I (???) she was
    I only loved her

    Shalle We Dance:

    This place stinks
    ??? stifling
    I can hardly breathe in here
    I can hardly hear myself think
    ??? can't even hear myself think
    Over this damn noise

    This place is cheap
    Can't you see ??? (awful ?)
    Can you believe that ???
    I wouldn't want to be seen dead in here
    I said, I wouldn't want to be seen dead in here
    But until that day

    Shall we dance
    Shall we trip the light fantastic
    Shall we dance
    Darling, everybody's here
    Darling, everyone is having
    Such a good time
    Such a good time

    It's hot in here
    ??? hotter than hell
    The ventilation is out to lunch
    The situation is out of hand
    The perspiration runs down the walls
    And I think I'm going to faint

    Shall we dance
    Shall we trip the light fantastic
    Shall we dance
    Darling, everyone is here
    Darling, everyone is having
    Such a good time (repeat)

    Thanks to everyone who posted previously -- I think you're right about the chorus; I don't think I would have figured that out myself.

    Edit: I incorporated some of the helpful suggestions from YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHXCzC2wGlo
