Now
I'm waking at the crack of dawn To send a little money home From me to The moon Is rising like a discotheque And now my bags are down and packed For traveling Looking at happiness Keeping my flavor fresh Nobody knows, I guess How far I'll go I know, so I'm Leavin at six o'clock Meet in the parking lot ?? Sunglasses on, she waits by this Glass and concrete and stone It is just a house, not a home Skin That covers me from head to toe Except a couple tiny holes And openings Where The city's blowing in and out And this is what it's all about Delightfully Everything's possible When you're an animal Not inconceivable How things can change I know, so I'm Putting on aftershave Nothing is out of place Gonna be on my way Try to pretend It's not Only glass and concrete and stone And it's just a house, not a home And it's glass and concrete and stone It is just a house, not a home And my head is fifty feet high Will my body and soul be my guide? |

To whom can I speak today?
The brothers they are equal But the old friends of today They have become unlovable To whom can I speak today? The gentleness has perished And the violent man has come down on everyone To whom can I speak today? The wrong which roams the earth There can be no end to it It is just unstoppable Death is in my sights today As when a man desires To see home after many years in jail February through December We have such a tragic year As separate as the fingers Suddenly, as one As the hand And the violent man has come down on everyone And the violent man has come down on everyone And the violent man has come down On everyone |

Au fond du temple saint
Pare de fleurs et d'or, Une femme apparait! Je crois la voir encore! Une femme apparait! Je crois la voir encore! La foule prosternee La regarde, etonnee, Et murmure tous bas: Voyez, c'est la deesse! Qui dans l'ombre se dresse Et vers nous tend les bras! Son voile se souleve! A" vision! o reve! La foule est A genoux! Oui, c'est elle! C'est la deesse plus charmante et plus belle! Oui, c'est elle! C'est la deesse qui descend parmi nous! Son voile se souleve et la foule est A genoux! Mais A travers la foule Elle s'ouvre un passage! Son long voile dejA Nous cache son visage! Mon regard, helas! La cherche en vain! Elle fuit! Elle fuit! Oui, c'est elle! C'est la deesse! En ce jour qui vient nous unir, Et fidele A ma promesse, Comme un frere je veux te cherir! C'est elle, c'est la deesse Qui vient en ce jour nous unir! Oui, partageons le meme sort, Soyons unis jusqu'A la mort! |

In national elections
In songs raised on high With stirring emotions As tears fill our eyes In democratic fever For national defense I am a mountain I am a mountain I am a mountain Like birds upon a fence Like birds upon a fence Young artists and writers Please heed the call What's good for business Is good for us all For as it is in nature So it is in life The weak among us perish The weak among us perish The weak among us perish The strong alone survive The strong alone survive Voices like thunder Decisions like steel The past and the future They belong to us all From every mountain The water and the land The world that we've created The world that we've created The world that we've created By working hand in hand By working hand in hand Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm |

She might dance all night
In a topless bar Fool around, go too far But I don't mind You see things are not what they appear 'Cause she only sleeps with me. She might drink a bit Lose her way Crash the car But come out OK And my friends might laugh But they only know what they can see And she only sleeps with me Nights on Times Square Live and on stage High heels She feels That she's dancin' for me And the little bird Flies from tree to tree To the highest branch Where she thinks she's free She can have it all That's the reason you wouldn't believe That she only sleeps with me There's a porno book In the library Nothin' ever goes Were it shouldn't be And the world is queer And the human is strangest of all And she only sleeps, yeah, she only sleeps Yeah, she only sleeps with me |

Picture this
Bumping lips Everyone talks Do a dialogue box They shake and bake Make a cranky face They got rocks in the head Got rocks in the bed Pull the hood down Grab the fold out Is it too loud? Is it all right? Makin' contact And you know that Need a tight fit To survive Romeo Said Juliette Got a dialogue box Hey look at me, that's my answer All Sparkly white Shiny bright A genuine smile The Renegade style Gonna heat 'em up And stir the pot bake it a while Then cool on the side Tribulation Revelation Absolution Prophesized I'm a rich man, I'm a poor man But the main thing I'm alive Lost in Space Cosmic haze Beautiful wreck Special effect Clean and pure Swift and sure I'm ready to drop In a dialogue box Decoration Innovation My creation Any size If you try it And you like it You can have it customized Gonna test ya With a gesture Do I feel ya? Are ya scared? In the darkness In the details At the movies Or a play All crinkled up Delirious Fall through the cracks In a dialogue box With a smiley bump Gonna line 'em up And the question I ask Hey look at me That's my answer |

I don't have any more problems
All of my worries are gone Beautiful angels appear at my side And corporate sponsors will act as my guide Agents & analysts take me inside The other side of this life Beautiful people are walking And beautiful people are we Bright as the sunlight at noon ev'ry day The people in nightclubs they all turn away But when it's over we're returning to The other side of this life I made a church of your hair-do And I made a shrine of your legs I promised to love and to worship each day I know that heaven is not far away Management told me they're sure I will play The other side of this life Lookin' in the mirror Peekin' 'round the corner Where the grass is always greener Peekin' through the curtain I gotta have a peek in It's genuine upholstered leather Doctor I'm back for a visit The symptoms are worse than before Although it's spelled wrong, my name's up in lights I feel so good, but you say it's all right I'll pay the price if you help me to find The other side of this life The other side of this life |

I don't have any philosophy
Why do I know what I know? I see the world in a coffee cup And when I drink it down there I go We have our own kind of universe Sometime but not always true How come? Wait! Maybe I think it is The view is very nice and it's big through and through I got skills and I got secrets, I can part my hair I feel an empty space where love could be In adjoining universes Touching here and there I stick my head outside and I can see - that Particles spin 'round a nucleus Planets encircle the sun Further out there is the Milky Way The coolest part of all cracks me up, Ev'rytime Life isn't really miraculous It had to happen this way We had to meet in this checkout line Explain it as a simple twist of fate But we can't - be - sure |

A distant car, a quiet night
Like starin' at the ceiling My sleepy eyes, you smell so nice It's such a funny feeling Got no idea, what time it is Delightfully confusing The trees outside, the morning light Arrives, like pirates on parade Surprise, it's pirates on parade A ray of light, between the blinds I lie there in a stupor I hear a thud, and then a flush Guess it must be the neighbors I blink my eyes, I laugh inside Imagine what they're saying I see your shape and through the night Here come, those pirates on parade Ahoy, it's pirates on parade Through the rough and stormy weather On a search for buried treasure There's an island to explore Ev'ry wave that whispers softly "Stay in bed, 'cause it's still early" Dolphins frolic by the shore And the phone never rings when the pirates are singing Well there's 16 men on a dead man's chest In this hallucination The map we got, x marks the spot We're following directions The 7 seas, the balmy breeze The pleasure of surrender The end is nigh, the sun is high It's late, for pirates on parade Too late, for pirates on parade Traffic noises down below me A helicopter circles slowly Monsters sink into the deep Mountainous and downy billows Float among those fluffy pillows Maybe I'll go back to sleep And the phone never rings when the pirates are singing This wicked life So what's in store behind that velvet curtain? The night is gone And the day is here The stupid sun is shinin' The moon reflects Your hair's a mess It's lovely imperfections My crew and I The clear blue skies Sail on, with pirates on parade Sail on, you pirates on parade Yo, yo, yo Yo, yo, yo Yo, yo, yo Yo, yo, yo Yo, yo, yo Yo, yo, yo Yo, yo, yo Yo, yo, yo |

Somewhere between the darkness and light
Faces all glow but its not too bright Civilization, its all about knives and forks Isn't she here? What time is it now? Is this the right place? Do I fit with her crowd? I'm gonna be a civilized man someday Part of me wants to jump and shout Part of me wants to tear it down I thought you might prefer the cabernet Civilization, its all about sex Havin' a ball in a padded banquet I'm gonna be that really cool guy someday The waiter looks me over Would you like cream or sugar? I don't know - what was I supposed to say She wonders if I'll notice I should have brought some roses Her plate is full, she hasn't eaten all day Glasses collect we order some booze She looks at me, I stare at her shoes Mature situations, maybe a broken heart Maybe I ought to pay the bill Maybe she thinks I never will A million things that cross a woman's mind Just be yourself, well that's what they say I barely know who I was yesterday I'm gonna be that civilized guy someday Good friends and conversations The rise and fall of nations A moments glory and they've had their day And on my high school folder I drew a big gorilla Something familiar, something far, far away Somewhere between the darkness and light She touches my hand, she don't seem to mind We can go home, we can be civilized |

The Western lands
Day turns to Night Immaterial play of light It's very nice out here Poked my hand in a hornet's nest They flew out around my face I guess it's just self defense The camera pans The focus shifts The world is a hornet's nest I learned my lesson well I surf the net And watch TV There's peace in the Middle East Feel like I'm an astronaut Now I am an astronaut |

[From "La Traviata"] Un di, felice, eterea, Mi balenaste innante, E da quel di tremante Vissi d'ignoto amor. Di quell'amor ch'e palpito Dell'universo, Dell'universo intero, Misterioso, Misterioso altero, Croce e, Croce e delizia Croce e delizia, delizia al cor. Misterioso, Misterioso altero, Croce e delizia al cor. Croce e delizia al cor. Delizia, delizia al cor. Delizia, delizia al cor. Croce e delizia, delizia al cor Croce e delizia al cor. |
