Watching them come and go
The Templars and the Saracens They're travelling the holy land Opening telegrams Torture comes and torture goes Knights who'd give you anything They bear the cross of Coeur de Leon Salvation for the mirror blind But if you pray all your sins are hooked upon the sky Pray and the heathen lie will disappear Prayers they hide the saddest view (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien) And your prayers they break the sky in two (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien) You pray til the break of dawn (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien) And you'll believe you're loving the alien (Believing the strangest things, loving the alien) Thinking of a different time Palestine a modern problem Bounty and your wealth in land Terror in a best laid plan Watching them come and go Tomorrows and the yesterdays Christians and the unbelievers Hanging by the cross and nail |

Press control and D to bookmark Don't Look Down Don't look down
They're making sorta crazy sounds Don't look down, no Don't know who else came to kneel On this empty battlefield But when I hear that crazy sound, I don't look down From Central Park to shanty town I always hear that crazy sound From New York to shanty town There's always something else Don't look down, no I went this morning to the cemetery To see old Rudy Valentino buried Lipstick traces on his name He never looked down 'Cause they were making crazy sounds From Central park to shanty town He always heard that crazy sound There's always something else Don't look down, no When I see you standing there I can't see the clothes you wear I just hear that crazy sound And I can't look down From Central Park to shanty town I've always heard that crazy sound From New York to shanty town There's always something else Don't look down, no Don't look down Don't look, don't look down No I won't be bored I won't be there Look at life it's no piece of cake When I hear that crazy sound I don't look down From Central Park to shanty town I always hear that crazy sound From New York to shanty town There's always something else Don't look down Don't look down, no Well, don't look, don't look down |

I've seen the city
I took the next flight For Borneo They say it's pretty I like the tee shirts In Borneo Some wear Bob Marley Others in Playboy Or Duvalier Make the last plane come Let me rise through the cloudy above With a book on Borneo Strangers come and go It's such a waste of time Problems far behind Another day But even in springtime It's a rich slice of life So send me a letter I'll reply with a broken spear That dusky mulatto In nylons and tattoos Hot juice in coke bottles We dance in the sand Well, they twirl and they tumble Yes, they twirl and they tumble Well, I'll twirl and I'll tumble I've been to Leon's He's got nine daughters And a stereo They say that Leon Watches from the tree tops In Borneo When the road is mud Everything stops with a thud That's the way it goes down yonder in Borneo Far beneath his mansion There's an open drain Sending all the sewage down the hill But when the general shows movies No one hesitates To sneak from the jungle They laugh and they mumble Enjoying the show And that dusky mulatto Hot juice in coke bottles In Blue Jeans and tattoos Well, they twirl and they tumble Yes, they twirl and they tumble Well, I'll twirl and I'll tumble I like the free world They say it's pretty This time of year They tumble and twirl <i>[x2]</i> I'll tumble and twirl They twirl and they tumble <i>[x2]</i> I like the free world <i>[x2]</i> They say it's pretty This time of year <i>[x2]</i> |

[Chorus: x2]
I keep forgetting you don't love me no more I keep forgetting that you told me that you Didn't want me around any more But these stupid old feet Just head for your street Like they've done so many times before And this stubborn old fist On the end of my wrist Keeps a knocking on your front door [Chorus: x2] I keep forgetting you don't love me no more I keep forgetting bout those heartbreaking nights And those heartbreaking things That you said Though I know in my heart We're drifting apart I can't believe that our love is dead Though it's plain as can be That you're finished with me I just can't get it through my head [Chorus: x2] Though I know in my heart We're drifting apart I can't believe that our love is dead Though it's plain as can be That you're finished with me I just can't get it through my head [Chorus: x5] |

Something's going on in society
(Dancing with the big boys) You chew your fingers and stare at the floor (Dancing with the big boys) One wrong word and you're out of sync Talking bout a hands on policy (Big boys) Death to the trees (Dancing with the big boys) They weren't bad, they weren't brave Nothing is embarrassing (Dancing with the big boys) There are too many people, too much belief (Dancing with the big boys) Where there's trouble there's poetry (Dancing with the big boys) Your family is a football team (Big boys) This dot marks your location (Dancing with the big boys) Loneliness in a free society (Dancing with the big boys) (Big boys) This can be embarrassing (Big boys) (Dancing with the big boys) (Big boys) (Big boys) |

A little piece of you
The little peace in me Will die For this is not America Blossom falls to bloom This season Promise not to stare Too long For this is not a miracle There was a time A storm that blew so pure For this could be the biggest sky And i could have The faintest idea Snowman melting From the inside Falcon spirals To the ground So bloody red Tomorrows clouds A little piece of you The little piece in me Will die For this is not America There was a time A wind that blew so young For this could be the biggest sky And i could have the faintest idea This could be the biggest sky This could be a miracle This could be etc |

As The World Falls Down -David Bowie-
There's such a sad love Deep in your eyes, a kind of pale jewel Open and closed within your eyes I'll place the sky within your eyes There's such a fooled heart Beating so fast in search of new dreams A love that will last within your heart I'll place the moon within your heart As the pain sweeps through Makes no sense for you Every thrill has gone Wasn't too much fun at all But I'll be there for you-oo-oo As the world falls down Falling (As the world) Falling down Falling in love I'll paint you mornings of gold I'll spin you Valentine evenings Though we're strangers till now We're choosing the path between the stars I'll leave my love between the stars As the pain sweeps through Makes no sense for you Every thrill has gone Wasn't too much fun at all But I'll be there for you-oo-oo As the world falls down Falling (As the world) Falling down Falling in love |

I've nothing much to offer
There's nothing much to take I'm an absolute beginner When I'm absolutely sane As long as we're together The rest can go to hell I absolutely love you But we're absolute beginners With eyes completely open But nervous all the same If our love song Could fly over mountains Could laugh at the ocean Just like the films There's no reason To feel all the hard times To lay down the hard lines It's absolutely true Nothing much could happen Nothing we can't shake Oh, we're absolute beginners With nothing much at stake As long as you're still smiling There's nothing more I need I absolutely love you But we're absolute beginners But if my love is your love We're certain to succeed If our love song Could fly over mountains Could sail over heartaches Just like the films If it's reason To feel all the hard times To lay down the hard lines It's absolutely true |
