:    If you have ftp access, a very good collection of Kate's (and a huge

: ftp.uwp.edu

: ..in the directory...

: /pub/music/lyrics/b/bush.kate

: ..the directory contains the following files...

: dont_give_up
: hounds.love
: kick.inside
: lionheart.
: miscellaneous.
: never.for.ever
: red.shoes
: sensual.world
: the.dreaming
: the.whole.story

:    Uli's FAQ contains directions for using e-mail to retreive these
: files if you don't have ftp. Also, access via WWW browsers seems
: to be quicker and more likely to get a connection. 

:    The original releases of all of Kate's recordings contained lyrics,
: but EMI-America cheaped out on the "Nice Price" re-releases of her
: music.

If you can't/wont ftp, here are the lyrics for your pleasure:

Sat in you Lap:

I see the people working and see it working for them.
And so I wont join in, nut then I find it hurts me.
Some say that knowledge is something sat in you lap
Some say that knowledge is something that you never have
I see the people happy, so can it happen for me?
'Coz when I am unhappy, there's nothing that can move me.
Some say that knowledge is soething that you never have
Some say that knowledge is soething sat in your lap
Some say that heaven is hel, some say that hell is heaven.
I must admit, just when I think I'm king (I just begin)
just when I think I'm king, I must admit (I just begin)
Just when I think I'm king
(I just begin.)
I've been doing it for years, my god is moving near.
It says 'Look I'm over here,' then it up and disappears.
Some say that knowledge is soething sat in your lap
Some say that knowledge is ho ho ho.
I want to be a lawyer, I want to be a scholar.
But I really can't be bothered, ooh just
Gimme it quick, gimme it, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme.
Some say that knowledge is ho ho ho
Some say that knowledge is ho ho ho
Some say that heaven is hell, Some say that hell is heaven, 
I must admit just when i think I'm king (I just begin)
Just when i think I'm king I must admit (I just begin)
Just when I think everything's going great (I just begin)
Hey I get the break
Hey I'm gonna take it all, (I just begin,)
When i'm king, (just begin.)
In my dome of ivory, a home of activity,
I want the answers quickly, but I don't have no energy,
I hold a cup of wisdom, but there is nothing within, 
My cup she never overfloweth and 'tis I that moan and groaneth,
Some grey and white matter, (Give me the Karma Mama
a jet to mecca, Tibet or Jeddah,
To Salisbury, A monastery,
The longest journey, across the desert,
Across the weather, across the elements,
Across the water)

Hope you are happy with it
