Strange Days |
|
|
Strange days have found us, Strange days have tracked us down, They're goin' to destroy our casual joys, We shall go on playing or find a new town
Strange eyes fill strange rooms, Voices will signal their tired end, The hostess is grinning, her guests sleep from sinning, Hear me talk of sin and you know this is it
Strange days have found us And through their strange hours We linger alone, bodies confused, Memories misused, As we run from the day to a strange night of stone |
You're Lost Little Girl |
|
|
You're lost little girl, You're lost little girl, You're lost, tell me who are you
Think that you know what to do, Impossible yes, but it's true I think that you know what to do, yeah, Sure that you know what to do
You're lost little girl, You're lost little girl, You're lost, tell me who are you |
Love Me Two Times |
|
|
Love me two times, baby, Love me twice today; Love me two times, girl, I'm goin' away Love me two times, girl, One for tomorrow, one just for today; Love me two times, I'm goin' away
Love me one time, could not speak; Love me one time, yeh, my knee got weak Love me two times, girl, Last me all thru the week; Love me two times, I'm goin' away; Love me two times, I'm goin' away |
Unhappy Girl |
|
|
Girl, unhappy girl, Left all alone, Playin' solitaire, Playin' warden to your soul; You are locked in a prison of your own device And you can't believe what it does to me To see you cryin'
Girl, unhappy girl, Tear your web away; Saw thru all your bars Melt yourself today; You are charged in a prison of your own device
Girl, unhappy girl, Fly fast away; Don't miss your chance To swim in mystery You are tied in a prison of your own device |
Horse Latitudes |
|
|
When the still sea conspires an armor And her sullen and aborted Currents breed tiny monsters, True sailing is dead
Awkward instant And the first animal is jettisoned, Legs furiously pumping Their stiff green gallop, And head bob up Poise Delicate Pause Consent In mute nostril agony Carefully refined And sealed over |
Moonlight Drive |
|
|
Let's swim to the moon uh huh let's climb thru the tide, Penetrate the evenin' that the city sleeps to hide Let's swim out tonight, love it's our turn to try Parked eside the ocean on our moonlight drive
Let's swim to the moon uh huh let's climb thru the tide, Surrender to the waiting worlds that lap against our side Nothing left open and no time to deside We've stepped into a river on our moonlight drive
Let's swim to the moon let's climb thru the tide You reach a hand to hold me but I can't be your guide Easy to love you as I watch you glide Falling through wet forests on our moonlight drive |
People Are Strange |
|
|
People are strange when you're a stranger, Faces look ugly when you're alone Women seem wicked when you're unwanted, Streets are uneven when you're down, When you're strange Faces come out of the rain when you're stranger No one remembers your name when you're strange When you're strange When you're strange |
My Eyes Have Seen You |
|
|
My eyes have seen you, My eyes have seen you, My eyes have seen you
Stand in your door meet inside Show me some more show me some more
Turn and stare fix your hair Move up stairs, move up stairs Move up stairs
Free from disguise, Gazing on a city under television skies, Television skies, television skies
Let them photograph your your soul, Memorize your alleys on an endless roll, endless roll, endless roll |
I Can't See Your Face |
|
|
I can't see your face in my mind I can't see your face in my mind Carnival dogs consume the lines Can't see your face in my mind
Don't you cry, baby, please don't cry, And don't look at me with your eyes, I can't seem to find the right lie, I can't seem to find the right lie
Insanity's horse adorns the sky, Can't seem to find the right lie, I won't need your picture until we say good-bye |
When The Music's Over |
|
|
When the music's over, When the music's over here When the music over turn out the lights, turn out the lights, turn out the lights Yeah, yeah
For the music is your special friend Dance on fire as it intends music is your only friend until the end, until the end, until the end
Cancel my subscription to the resurrection, Send my credentials to the house of detention, I got some friends inside
The face in the mirror won't stop The girl in the window won't drop A feast of friends alive she cried, Waiting for me outside
Before I sink into the big sleep I want to hear I want to hear the scream of the butterfly
Come back, baby, back into my arms
We're getting tired of waiting around Waiting around with our heads to the ground I hear a very gentle sound What have they done to the earth? What have they done to our fair sister? Ravaged and plundered and ripped her and bit her Stuck her with knives in the side of the dawn and tied her with fences and dragged her down
I hear a very gentle sound With your ear down to the ground - We want the world and we want it Now! Persian night! See the light! Save us! Jesus! Save us!
When the music's over, When the music's over here When the music over turn out the lights, turn out the lights, turn out the lights Yeah, yeah
For the music is your special friend Dance on fire as it intends music is your only friend until the end, until the end, until the end
