A sense of duty
was my one intention and an ugly beauty was my own invention Pride a proud refusal and I refuse to need your approval Too many seekers Too few beacons But through the fog we'll keep on beaming Through the crying hours of your glitter years all the living out of your tinsel tears and the midnight trains I never made 'cos I'd already played...the game Everybody's got their own good reason why their favorite season is their favorite season Winter winners and those summers sons aren't good for everyone aren't good for everyone Spring has sprung and autumns well done so well done And it's a better thing that we do now forgetting everything the whys and hows While you reminisce about the things you miss you won't be ready to kiss...goodbye The earth is a world The world is a ball A ball in a game with no rules at all And just as I wonder at the beauty of it all you go and drop it and it breaks and falls I'll never understand why you thought I would need to be reassured and be understood When I always knew that your bad's my good and I was ready ready...to be loved Born under Mars With Jupiter rising Fallen from stars That lit my horizon I'll never understand why you thought I would need to be reassured and be understood When I always knew that your bad's my good and I was ready ready...to be Through the crying hours of your glitter years all the living out of your tinsel tears and the midnight trains I never made 'cos I'd already played it's a better thing that we do now forgetting everything the whys and hows While you reminisce about the things you miss you won't be ready to kiss...goodbye |

You say your proud to be
One of the people hands on the money and your feet on the ground Shouting out loud From the top of the steeple Counting the flock while collecting their pounds all you theiving wheeler dealers in the healing zone giving me Fever Fever Fever Fever down to my bones Chorus: I pray and nothing happens Jesus it's all in my mind You say stop looking for answers and reasons they're all in your mind all in you mind Covered in flies and smothered in lava I can't scratch my itches with these pumise stone hands I dream of my days as a desert farmer living my life On the fat of the sand All you theiving wheeler dealers in the healing zone giving me Fever Fever Fever Fever down to my bones (chorus) Stuck in a world losing its way and wonder I wonder what happened to the world we knew Splitting the atom and feeling its thunder Could never ever make me Feel the way you do You give me Fever Fever Fever Fever down to my bones Fever Fever Fever Fever in the healing zone (chorus) |

The word went round
in no dream town They shut us up and the shutters down The planes flew in and laid the ground We built upon and spun around God's one miracle Lost in circles Chorus: On the march Berlin to Bombers Bay Traveling dark on the roads to Mandalay Cannon fire came to call Stood us up and watched us fall The way we were and now outworn Our costumes changed to uniforms Black black days here to stay On the march Madrid to Bombers Bay Traveling dark on the road to Mandalay Pack up the troubles and you'll all get by Smile boys that's the style Pack up your troubles and you'll all get by Smile They give us hope and teach us well with magic moons that cast a spell and hypnotise and draw us in I believe I'm believing God's one miracle moves in circles On the march Berlin to Bombers Bay Traveling dark on the road (chorus) Black black days where the flying fishes play (x4) ... |

She floats like a swan
grace on the water lips like sugar lips like sugar just when you think you've caught her she glides across the water she calls for you tonight to share this moonlight You'll flow down her river She'll ask you and you'll give her Chorus: Lips like sugar Sugar kisses Lips like sugar sugar kisses She knows what she knows I know what she's thinking sugar kisses sugar kisses just when you think she's yours she's flown to other shores to laugh at how you break and melt into this lake You'll flow down her river but you'll never give her (chorus) She'll be my mirror Reflect what I am A loser and a winner The King of Siam and my Siamese twin Alone on the river Mirror kisses (x2) (chorus x3) |

I was standing
under sliver studded skies In a forest burnig ashes on the bonfires of our lives As the sky fell down I was lost and found saw my world spin round round and round All the ghosts have gathered round me come to tell me of a change in the darkness that surrounds me I am falling down again On this haunted ground I was lost and found Chorus: Lost Lost and found (x2) She will tell you her cathedral has no windows and no doors and you know she doesn't need you and that's why you want her more As your heart melts down you are lost and found (chorus) I was counting all the tombstones of the buried boys and girls as the wind blew in like ice and froze this cemetery world And we all fell down we were lost and found And the sun went down we were lost and found (chorus x2) |

Out on a limb
did you see what the cat dragged in take it on the chin catching fire on a roof of tin You've learnt to speak and you're professing the right to teach us our direction but I found out on close inspection true imprefection Chorus 1: I'm looking for a new direction Where in the world am I? I took the word the word was resurrection and then you took me out to climb Chorus: Higher and higher (x3) Kissing the spires higher and higher (x3) Souls on fire Inside of my head I heard what the good Lord said 'Beware' he said if you don't you might end up dead You suck the air right out of me but though you suck you cannot see that life and living are not free though you live you do not breathe (chorus 1) (chorus) ... I have changed but still my heart remains intact and true love stays but will our hearts retain their lack of No sense and no direction Who in the world am I? I took the word the word was resurrection and then you took me out to climb (chorus...) Start confessing (x2) All my evils would be blessed if to God I did confess Wipe the slate and see if I ate the bread and drank the wine So as you're leaving I take possesion just take the bottle and start confessing |

One in a million
one and the same looking for freedom born to be tamed Once in a lifetime one of these days gonna grab me a lifeline swinging my way I'm swimming out on a blue blue ocean you're sailing out on a blue blue sea Silhouettes and a vulture hoping he's gonna pick the bones of you and me You and me |

Oh how the times have changes us
Sure and now uncertain Men not devils have claimed us Purity deserting God's one miracle lost in circles Chorus: All my all my life revolves around laughter and crying as my life turns round and round Cannon fire burning on the hillside You and I are side by side Listen Tin soldiers playing our tune (chorus) and round Songs for life's lost lovers bitter sweet their healing Their prayers prayed under covers need not kneeling God's one miracle moves in circles (chorus x2) and round and round Hearts of fire hearts of bone beating stronger beating home where there's wanting there is need where there's having there is greed I'm swimming out on a blue blue ocean You're sailing out on a blue blue sea Silhouettes and a vulture hoping he's gonna pick the bones of you and me You and me Girl I want the gold dust in your fingers and your Klondike touch girl I want your goldmine as it shimmers in your solemn eyes I'm swimming out on a blue blue ocean You're sailing out on a blue blue sea Silhouettes and a vulture hoping licking the bones of you and me I'm swimming out on a blue blue ocean you're sailing out on a blue blue sea Blue blue sea I'm swimming out on the ocean (Blue blue ocean) you're sailing out on the sea (Blue blue sea) (x 4) (repeat about 14 times) Blue blue ocean Blue blue sea |
