Sunday
Nothing remains
We could run when the rain slows
Look for the cars or signs of life
Where the heat goes
Look for the drifters
We should crawl under the bracken
Look for the shafts of light on the road
Where the heat goes
Everything has changed
For in truth, it's the beginning of nothing
And nothing has changed
Everything has changed
For in truth, it's the beginning of an end
And nothing has changed
And everything has changed
(1st Voice)
In your fear
Of what we have become
Take to the fire
Now we must burn
All that we are
Rise together
Through these clouds
As on wings
(2nd Voice)
In your fear, seek only peace
In you fear, seek only love
In your fear, seek only peace
In you fear, seek only love
In your fear, in your fear
As on wings
This is the trip
And this is the business we take
This is our number
All my trials, Lord
Will be remembered
Everything has changed
Cactus
Sitting here wishing on a cement floor
Just wishing that I had just something you wore
I put it on when I go lonely
Will you take off your dress and send it to me?
I miss your kissin' and I miss your head
And a letter in your writing doesn't mean you're not dead
Just run outside in the desert heat
Make your dress all wet and send it to me
I miss your soup and I miss your bread
And a letter in your writing doesn't mean you're not dead
So spill your breakfast and drip your wine
Just wear that dress when you di yi yi yi yine
D -A -V -I -D
Sitting here wishing on a cement floor
Just wishing that I had just something you wore
Bloody your hands on a cactus tree
Wipe 'em on your dress and send it to me
Sitting here wishing on a cement floor
Just wishing that I had just something you wore
Slip Away
Oogie waits for just another day
Drags his bones to see the Yankees play
Bones Boy talks and flickers gray
Oh, they slip away
Once a time they nearly might have been
Bones and Oogie on a silver screen
No one knew what they could do
Except for me and you
They slip away
They slip away
Don't forget to keep your head warm
Twinkle twinkle Uncle Floyd
Watching all the world and war torn
How I wonder where you are
Sailing over Coney Island
Twinkle twinkle Uncle Floyd
We were dumb but you were fun, boy
How I wonder where you are
Oogie knew there's never ever time
Some of us will always stay behind
Down in space it's always 1982
The joke we always knew
Oo-oo
What'sa matter with you
C'mon, let's go
Slip away
Oo-o
Don't forget to keep your head warm
Twinkle twinkle Uncle Floyd
Watching all the world and war torn
How I wonder where you are
Slow Burn
Here shall we live in this terrible town
Where the price for our minds shall squeeze them tight like a fist
And the walls shall have eyes
And the doors shall have ears
But we'll dance in their dark
Still they'll play with our lives
Like a Slow Burn
Leading us on and on and on
Like a Slow Burn
Turning us round and round and round
But who are we
So small in times such as these
Slow Burn
Slow Burn
Oh, these are the days
These are the strangest of all
These are the nights
These are the darkest to fall
Though who knows?
Echoes in tenement halls
Who knows?
Though the years spare them all
Like a Slow Burn
Leading us on and on and on
Like a Slow Burn
Twirling us round and round and upside down
There's fear overhead
There's fear overground
Slow Burn
Slow Burn
Like a Slow Burn
Leading us on and on and on
Like a Slow Burn
Turning us round and round and round
And here are we
At the center of it all
Slow Burn
Slow Burn
Slow Burn
Afraid
I wish I was smarter
I got so lost on the shore
I wish I was taller
Things really matter to me
But I put my face in tomorrow
I believe we're not alone
I believe in Beatles
I believe my little soul has grown
And I'm still so afraid
Yes, I'm still so afraid
Yea, I'm still so afraid on my own
On my own
What made my life so wonderful?
What made me feel so bad?
I used to wake up the ocean
I used to walk on clouds
If I put faith in medication
If I can smile a crooked smile
If I can talk on television
If I can walk an empty mile
Then I won't feel afraid
No, I won't feel afraid
I won't be
Be afraid
Anymore
I've Been Waiting For You
I've been looking
For a woman
To save my life
Not to beg, or to borrow
A woman
With the feeling
Of losing once or twice
Who knows how it could be?
Tomorrow?
I've been waiting for you
And you've been coming to me
For such a long time now
Such a long time now
A woman
With the feeling
Of losing once or twice
Who knows how it could be?
Tomorrow?
I've been waiting for you
And you've been coming to me
For such a long time now
Such a long time now
I Would Be Your Slave
Walking in the snowy street
Let me understand
Drifting down a silent path
Stumbling over land
Open up your heart to me
Show me who you are
And I would be your slave
Do you sleep in quietude
Do you walk in peace
Do you laugh out loud at me
No one else is free
Open up your heart to me
Show me all you are
And I would be your slave
I don't sit and wait
I don't give a damn
I don't see the point at all
No footprints in the sand
I bet you laugh out loud at me
A chance to strike me down
Give me peace of mind at last
Show me all you are
Open up your heart to me
I would be your slave
I don’t sit and wait
I don't give a damn
I don't see the point at all
No footprints in the sand
I would give you all my love
Nothing else is free
Open up your heart to me
I would be your slave
I Took A Trip On A Gemini Spacecraft
I took a trip on a gemini spacecraft
And I thought about you
I passed through the shadow of Jupiter
And I thought about you
I shot my spacegun
And boy, I really felt blue
Two or three flying saucers
Parked under the stars
The winding stream
Moon shining down
On some little town
And with each beam
The same old dream
I took a trip on a gemini spacecraft
And I thought about you
I shot my spacegun
And I thought about you
I pulled down my sun visor
Boy, I really felt blue
You jumped into your Gemini
I jumped into mine
We'll orbit the moon
For just one time
Tomorrow night
Tomorrow night
Will you hold hands
With me in the moonlight
I took a trip in a gemini spacecraft
And I thought about you
I shot my spacegun
And I thought about you
I took a walk in space
Boy, I really felt blue
Well, I peeked through the crack
And I looked way back
The stardust trail
Leading back to you
What did I do
What could I do
What did I do
Well……
I thought about you
5.15 The Angels Have Gone
5.15
I'm changing trains, this little town
Let me down
This foreign rain brings me down
5.15
Train overdue, angels have gone
No ticket
I'm jumping tracks, I'm changing towns
We never talk anymore
Forever I will adore only you
5.15
All of my life, angels have gone
I'm changing trains
Angels like them, thin on the ground
All of my life
All legs and wings, strange sandy eyes
5.15
Train overdue, angels have gone
We never talk anymore
Forever
I will adore only you
Cold station
All of my life
Forever
I'm out of here forever
Everyone Says 'Hi'
Said you took a big trip
Said you moved away
Happened oh so quietly, they say
Should a took a picture
Something I could keep
Buy a little frame, something cheap
For you
Everyone says 'hi'
Said you sailed a big ship
Said you sailed away
Didn't know the right thing to say
I'd love to get a letter
Love to know what's what
Hope the weather's good, and it's not too hot
For you
Everyone says 'hi'
Everyone says 'hi'
Everyone says
Don't stay in a sad place
Where they don't care how you are
Everyone says 'hi'
If the money is lousy
You can always come home
We can do all the old things
We can do all the bad things
If the food gets you leery
You can always phone
We could do all the good things
We could do it
We could do it
We could do it
Don't stay in a bad place
Where they don't care how you are
Everyone says 'hi'
Everyone says 'hi'
Everyone says 'hi'
And the girl next door
And the guy upstairs
Everyone says 'hi'
And your mum and dad
Everyone says 'hi'
And your big fat dog
Everyone says 'hi'
Everyone says 'hi'
Hi hi hi hi yi
A Better Future
Please don't tear this world asunder
Please take back this fear we're under
I demand a better future
Or I might just stop wanting you
Please make sure we get tomorrow
All this pain and all this sorrow
I demand a better future
Or I might just stop needing you
Give my children sunny smiles
Give them room and cloudless skies
I demand a better future
Or I might just stop loving you, loving you, loving you
When we talk, we talk to you
When we walk, we walk to you
From factory to field
How many tears must fall?
Down there below
Nothing is moving
Heathen (The Rays)
Steel on the skyline
Sky made of glass
Made for a real world
All things must pass
Waiting for something
Looking for someone
Is there no reason?
Have I stared too long?
You say you'll leave me
And when the sun is low
And the rays high
I can see it now
I can feel it die
Oo-o
Oo-o
