Hey-hey-yeah
Now it occured to me, As I awoke from deeper dreams, All this evolution, Still I don't know what it means. And it gets so hard for me to change, When there's an easy way to earn, Why should I work my fingers to the bone? Is this what I truly deserve? This is not another trilogy. (Just another story - just another story - just another story - just another story) Nobody make a move, this kid's got you covered. He was just seventeen, trying to get on like his dead brother. Momma couldn't do a thing about him, though she hurt inside. And Daddy wants his son back, while he knows he's still alive. Stick up kid, thinking you're a glory boy, Sick of fronting that stupid toy, But you don't get that it's yourself you will destroy Still running those rocks on the front line, Like a speed-freak kind of amphetamine. Get uptight when it's your turn, A bullet in the head is a lesson learned. One of these days you're gonna say goodbye, Telling everyone you never been so high Born the same time that you die Pushing those drugs like a super-fly, Heaven help all with no way out, That's what this is all about. This is not another trilogy, It's just another story baby... Hit 'em with it now, Come on now hit 'em with it now, Aaaah, stick up kid. Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha, I gotcha where I want ya now. Nobody make a fucking move. All these gangsta kids are gettin' uptight, All these gangsta kids are gettin' uptight! I gotcha, I gotcha where I wantcha now, Nobody make a fucking move! Nobody make a move, this kid's got you covered, He was just seventeen, trying to get on like his dead brother, yeah. Momma couldn't do a thing about him, though she hurt inside, And daddy wants his son back, while he knows he's still alive. Stick up kid, ah thinking you're a glory boy, Sick of fronting that stupid toy, But you just don't get that it's yourself you will destroy. Still running those rocks on the frontline, Like a speed-freak king of amphetamine. Get uptight when it's your turn, A bullet in the head is a lesson learned, One of these days you're gonna say goodbye, Telling everyone you never been so high, Born the same time that you die, Pushing those drugs like a super-fly. Heaven help all with no way out, That's what this is all about, This is not another trilogy, It's just another story... Ah, unhand me! Huh! |

There's a stillness in time,
Which I cannot define. Does your heart bleed like mine? For a place we can go, where the troubles of our time are far away. Hey, they are so far away. And I have all my life in front of me Now my darkest days are trouble free There are so many wondrous things for you to see. Hey! If you find that something's going wrong... Look around at what you're running from! You can wait a thousand years in line For that stillness in time Hey! Oh yeah - I found love in that way. And I'm never sad, and I'm always glad. Anything you give me today, Now I will be thankfull for. Hey-A-Hey-Yeah People find it hard to be strong. 'Cos they don't know where they're coming from. Oooh There was nothing I could do but hang on, for that Stillness In Time. If this world is turning too fast for your head. Just remember: happy times can roam instead! I guess I have to search the spaces of my mind, for that stillness in time. Hey Oh Yeah - I found love in that way, And I'm never sad. And I'm always glad. Ooh Yeah: Anything you give me today. Now I will be thankfull for! Mmm, oh People find it hard to be strong. 'Cos they don't know where they're coming from. Hey! There was nothing I could do but hang on For that Stillness in Time Ooh.. I know that this, is the perilfull inside of bliss. There is no need, for the love I have will stay the same. I have done wrong, if I don't know where I'm coming from. If I don't see, the things there are inside of me Yeah. A part of me... In front of me... Oh! 'Say it's all around me! 'Said I know. 'Said I want to find that stillness in time Stillness In Time! Hey! La La La La. La La Low La La La La La. La La La La. La La Low La La La La Low. La La La La. La La Low La La La La Low. La La La La. La La Low La La La La Low. La La La La.

Every bird will sing, the melody of our love tune...
Ooh... Yesterday I was Half the man I used to be Maybe that's because You're the other half of me Like the spring in bloom The summer of our love is soon Every bird will sing The melody of our love tune. Send down from above Unconditionally love Likened to a flower Stronger love grows by the hour Make us go our separate ways Where our love was so at ease Now you got me down on my knees. Hey Yesterday I was Brighter than the morning sun Now my love is lost And lonely days have just begun A solitary chair For a silent love affair A king has lost his throne And now he sits alone. Hey Hey Yeah! High... High... High.. Yeah yeah!! Every bird will sing! Hey! Oh now every bird will sing. Every bird will sing the... sing the meolody of our love tune. Oh every bird every bird everybird will sing the melody of our love tune. Hey, I wanna tell you!

You can be light years
Away from searious intention See i thought id change it all Someday Id get to turn mankind this day If you dont know you can be light years Away from your true destination Until i get that good vibratation Im never gonna get to use that earthly power Now im gonna jump back Stand back And use that earthly power Ohh right on Im goin up now Now i got that sunshine in my life Ooo i got it, Oh i got it Now i got that sunshine in my life Light years Half a million miles from where you wanna be Did you ever hear about a man Who tried to be Truly, truly free Truly free, you know what i mean Light years Will stand between the laws of principal And now we think we are invincable But with out true power True power Its unthinkable man Light years away from the colour of our brotherhood Light years away from our duty to assistance |

Four hundred years or more
Since you came to crucify They were taken far from home There were promises of paradise But if they had been told that day They would be sold this way To satisfy the souls of chosen men See I had to look carefully At the shame of my ancestry To re-define the story line again. If I was taken for a day And shown another way Every child can learn a different thing See I tried a million times But I had to change my mind Sadness was the best thing I could bring On the inside he was dead and this is what he said As he took away the bloom above the clouds Superiority was clearly meant to be So destiny will manifest in time. So where has the love all gone A troubled trail of tears will tell the tale Of how I was put down where I don't belong Woman, Child and man for sale For ethical slavery is just an absurdity How can you be alive when you are dead With these chains of hypocrisy The shame of my ancestry Forever stained by blood in which you tread. If I was taken for a day And shown another way Every child can learn a different thing See I tried a million times But I had to change my mind Sadness was the best thing I could bring On the inside he was dead and this is what he said As he took away the bloom above the clouds Superiority was clearly meant to be So destiny will manifest in time. |

Now we're getting nasty.
Everybody's talking about the kids The kids got funky soul and groove emotion But if you don't give the kids the chance to use it They're always more than likely to abuse it Everybody's talking about the kids It's taking time for you to realise Now hunger turns to anger in our eyes I say the revolution will be televised Yes it will, Everybody's talking about the kids The kids need space to get their heads in place And every day this world we have to face I just can't seem to find my proper place. Kids get down Stormy weather Fifteen years of royal pleasure Kids get down underground Everybody dance to the funky sound. Everybody's talking about the kids It won't be long before we get our own And every kid can truly feel at home I told ya you should give the dog a bone Everybody's talking about school But I get more pleasure breakin' all the rules Cos lesson one begins with "Life Is Cruel" Well I guess I'm just an educated fool Everybody's talking about the kids Mom and Dad make efforts to excuse it Government officials will confuse it Members of the bench will try to prove it You're going down sucker. Everybody's talking about the kids now Everybody's talking about the kids now The kids got funky soul. Kids get down Stormy weather Fifteen years of royal pleasure Kids get down, celebrate Now we're going to kick the thing we hate Everybody's talking about high But kids get high to satisfy For reaching out to touch the sky Is all I can identify, and you know why. Kids get down Stormy weather Fifteen years of royal pleasure Kids get down, celebrate Now we're gonna kick the thing we hate Kids get down, pressurized To live the life that you devised Kids get down, celebrate Life's too short to complicate |

Have you gone astray
Or lost your way You should have seen me yesterday Well I knew this kind of love Was written in the stars It's only once or twice that you're in line with Mr Moon Then it was you Took me on your cloud Give me flowers for my pain But with some degree of certainty My destiny Seemed to slip away from me Before I got to know your name. Just give me a chance I'll do what you want me to Everybody wants to dance So how come I can't dance with you You really turn me on You're the one that makes me smile It's Mr Moon who plays in tune, Mr Moon who knows And if it's Mr Moon who gives the sign then that's the sign that goes I never know what to do Till I'm there with you. Did you lose your mind For a day You don't remember anyway Like the waters of a dream Encapsulate my mind A place I haven't seen sits at the end of space and time So lost in time Then I think I'm blind To perchance upon this circumstance is something of a miracle So spiritual It's verging on the physical Searching for a love I cannot find. |

You say you fight to give us freedom
But often more than not this is abused And the faces of a tired generation have decided they are sick of being used for the purpose of current declarations Still the same, it'll never change until the end Is to buy appreciation of the nation To cover the mistakes you must defend And you say there'll be a chance for evryone to proptest against your calculated greed But I can see into the future Won't be long before the welfare Send me letters telling me how much they need And it's not been in my interest to please them For the only interest rate to fall is mine See a brand new generation in demanding What you've been doing with out money all this time Scam People try living life at speed of light Scam Don't know why but I have to do the things I do Scam Give me ten, that's the move I give you five Scam People say it's the way to stay alive So you see you have to be a schemer If you wanna love the life you have to live And it don't matter how much I earn 'Cos I always get my fingers burned When the man gets down to his business And I've been searching for a reason Why I have to give it all up just when I want to get ahead See I had to lose car, job, wife, dog and home Debts and threats on the telephone Maybe I should bust a move instead Now we all know when we watch the television Not confused between a puppet or conviction Glued to the screen by a thousand shallow words of widsom It ain't what it seems when it's a single sided system Someone's got a hold on my living So I'm gonna have to do the things that's fair They got to justify for what I should be giving Should I lie, should I steal or should I care 'Cos now I've got to scam |

All of my visions were untrue
Till I had a vision of you And untimely end for all But it was only then, only then that I saw Saw the morning glory. Can't you take me there Can't you take me there Away from soliloquies of sadness And prophecies of pain For us all to see. I had a vision in my mind I had a vision of peace I had a vision of you. |

Everything is good
and brown Oh I'm here again With a sunshine smile upon my face My friends Are close at hand And all my inhibitions Have disappeared without a trace I'm glad I found Somebody who I can rely on This is the return of the space cowboy Inter-planetary Good vibe zone At the speed of Cheeba We'll go deeper Maybe I'll have to get high Just to get by. Everything is good And green Oh, I'm red again And I don't suppose I'm coming down I can see clearly, So high in the sky A man with psychedelic picture frames Of happiness to shade his eyes He's glad That he found Somebody who he can rely on. |
