Stuck In A Moment
Masonic Temple
Toronto Ontario, Canada
Taped 2009-09-15; broadcast 2009-12-09
Spectacle 2 DVD
Sung by Bono, Edge, and Elvis Costello w/ The Imposters

{Bono}
I'm not afraid of anything in this world
There's nothing you can throw at me
That I haven't already heard
I'm just trying to find a decent melody
A song that I can sing in my own company

{Elvis}
I never thought you were a fool
But darling, look at you
Gotta stand up straight
Gotta carry your own weight
Cos your tears are going nowhere, baby


{All}
You got to get yourself together
You got stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better
Now you're stuck in a moment and you can't get out of it

{Bono}
I will not forsake the colors that you bring
Well the nights you filled with fireworks
Did they leave you with nothing?
I’m still enchanted by the light you brought to me
I still listen through your ears
Through your eyes I can see

{Elvis}
You are such a fool
To worry like you do
I know it's tough
You can never get enough
Of what you don't really need now

{All}
You got to get yourself together
You got stuck in a moment and you can't get out of it
Oh Lord, look at you now
Stuck in a moment and you can't get out of it

{Bono}
I was unconscious, half asleep
The water is warm till you discover how deep
I wasn't jumping, for me it was a fall
It's a long way down to nothing at all, oh-oh / Nothing at all

{All}
You got to get yourself together
You got stuck in a moment and now you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better
You got stuck in a moment and you can't get out of it

{Edge}
And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if your way should falter
Along that stony pass

And if the night runs over / And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last / And if the day won’t last
And if your way should falter
Along that stony pass
It's just a moment
Just a moment
It's just a moment
It's just a moment
It's just a moment
Just a moment
Just a moment
This too shall pass

Stay (Faraway, So Close)
Masonic Temple
Toronto Ontario, Canada
Taped 2009-09-15; broadcast 2009-12-09
Spectacle 2 DVD
Performed by Bono and The Edge w/ Steve Nieve

Green light, 7-Eleven
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
You don't smoke, don't even want to
Hey now, check your change
Dressed up like a car crash
The wheels are turning but you're upside down

You say when he hits you, you don't mind
Because when he hurts you, you feel alive
Oh now, is that what it is

Red lights, grey morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim
It depends on who's around
You used to stay in to watch the adverts
You could lip synch with the talk show host

And if you look, you look through me
And when you talk, you talk at me
And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing

If I could stay, then the night would give you up / Oh-oh-oh
If I could stay, then the day would keep its trust / Oh-oh-oh
If I could stay, then the night would be enough / Oh-oh-oh

Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio waves
With satellite television
You can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans
London, Belfast, and Berlin

And if you listen, I can't call
And if you jump, you just might fall
And if you shout, I'll only hear you

If I could stay, then the night would give you up / Oh-oh-oh
If I could stay, then the day would keep its trust / Oh-oh-oh
If I could stay with the demons you drown / Oh-oh-oh
Stay with the spirit I found / Oh-oh-oh
Stay and the night would be enough / Oh-oh-oh

Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Three o'clock in the morning
It's quiet and there’s no one around
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel hits the ground…hits the ground

Two Shots of Happy, One Shot of Sad
Masonic Temple
Toronto Ontario, Canada
Taped 2009-09-15; broadcast 2009-12-09
Spectacle 2 DVD
Sung by Bono with The Imposters, Steve Nieve on piano

Two shots of happy, one shot of sad
You think I'm no good, well I know I've been bad
Took you to a place, now you can't get back
Two shots of happy, one shot of sad

We walked together down a dead end street
We’re mixing the bitter with the sweet
Don't bother trying to find out what we might of had
Just two shots of happy, one shot of sad

I am just a singer, a self-made sinner
Rollin' the dice, not always a winner
You say I've been lucky, well hell I’ve made my own
Not part of the crowd but not feeling alone

Under pressure, but not bent out of shape
Surrounded, we always found an escape
Drove me to drink, but hey, that’s not all bad
Two shots of happy, one shot of sad

Guess I've been greedy all of my life
Greedy with my children, my lovers, my wife
Greedy for the good things as well as the bad
Two shots of happy, one shot of sad

Maybe it's just talk, saloon singing
The chairs are all stacked, the swingers stopped swinging
You say I hurt you, well you put the finger on yourself
Then after you did you came crying for my help

Two shots of happy, one shot of sad
I'm not complaining, baby I'm glad
You call it compromise, well what’s that?
Two shots of happy, one shot of sad
Two shots of happy, one shot…sad

Pump It Up / Get On Your Boots
Masonic Temple
Toronto Ontario, Canada
Taped 2009-09-15; broadcast 2009-12-09
Spectacle 2 DVD
Bono and The Edge with Elvis Costello and The Imposters

[Bono=Normal; Elvis=Italics; All=Bold]

I've been on tenterhooks
Ending in dirty looks
Shine’s livin’ on Muzak
Thinking 'bout this 'n' that
She said that's that
I don't wanna chitter-chat
Turn it down a little bit
Turn it down flat

Get on your boots, yeah
Get on your boots, yeah
Get on your boots, yeah

The future needs a big kiss
Winds blow with a twist
Never seen a moon like this
Can you see it too?
Night is falling everywhere
Rockets at the fun fair
Satan loves a bomb scare
But he won’t scare you

You don’t know how beautiful
You don’t know how beautiful you are
No you don’t know how beautiful / You don’t know, you don’t get it do you
You don’t know how beautiful you are / You don’t know

She's been a bad girl
She's like a chemical
Though you try to stop it
She's like a narcotic
You wanna talk to
You wanna torture her
All the things you bought for her
Putting up your temperature

Get on your boots, yeah
Get on your boots, yeah
Get on your boots, yeah

Johnny's in the basement mixing up the medicine
I'm on the pavement thinking about the government

Get on your boots, yeah
Get on your boots, yeah
Get on your boots, yeah

Pump it up, until you can’t feel it
Pump it up, when you don't really need it
Pump it up, until you can’t feel it
Pump it up, when you don't really need it, oh

Don't really need it
Don't really need it
Don't

Alison
Masonic Temple
Toronto Ontario, Canada
Taped 2009-09-15
Spectacle 2 DVD Bonus Track
Sung by Bono
Accompanied by The Edge, Elvis Costello and the Imposters

Oh it's so funny to be seeing you after so long, girl
And with the way you look I understand you are not impressed
But I heard you let that little friend of mine
Take off your party dress

I'm not gonna get too sentimental
Like those other sticky valentines
Cos I don't know if you are loving somebody
I only know it isn't mine

Alison
I know this world is killing you
Oh, Alison
My aim is true

Well I see you've got a husband now
Did he leave your pretty fingers lying in that wedding cake?
You used to hold him right in your hand
I bet he took all that he could take

Sometimes I wish that I could stop you from talking
When I hear the silly things you say
I think somebody better put out the big light
Cos I can't stand it to see you this way

Alison
I know this world is killing you
Oh, Alison
My aim is true
(Just tell me now)
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
My aim is true
Won’t you tell me now
Won’t you tell me please something like…true

There’s a tune
Bono
