In times like these,
In times like those, What will be will be, And so it goes... There's always been laughing, crying, Birthing, dying. Boys and girls with hearts a-taken, Give and break. Heal and grow and recreate. And raise and nurture, But there not from time to... Times like these, Times like those, What will be will be, And so it goes... And there's always been stop and go, And fast and slow, And action, reaction, Sticks and stones And broken bones, Those for peace and those for war, God bless these ones, not those ones, but these ones... Man... Times like these, Times like those, What will be will be, And so it goes... And it always goes On and on and on and on and on On and on and on and on it goes... Mmmmm....mmmmmm... |

The horizon has been defeated
By the pirates of the new age Alien casinos Well maybe it's just time to say Things can go bad And make you want to run away But as we grow older The trouble just seems to stay Future complications In the strings between the cans But no prints can come from fingers If machines become our hands And then our feet become the wheels And then the wheels become the cars And then the rigs begin to drill Until the drilling goes too far Things can go bad And make you want to run away But as we grow older The horizon begins to fade, fade, fade Fade away Tthingamajigsaw puzzled Anger don't you step too close Because people are lonely and only Animals with fancy shoes Hallelujah zig zag nothing Misery it's on the loose Because people are lonely and only Animals with too many tools That can build all the junk that we sell Aw sometime man makes you want to yell Things can go bad And make you want to run away But as we grow older The horizon begins to fade away Fade Away Fade, fade, fade Fade, fade, fade |

There's traffic in the sky
and it doesn't seem to be getting much better there's kids playing games on the pavement drawing waves on the pavement shadows of the planes on the pavement it's enough to make me cry but that don't seem like it would make it feel better maybe it's a dream and if I scream it will burst at the seams this whole place will fall into pieces and then they'd say... Well how could I have known? I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell if you keep adding stones soon the water will be lost in the well Puzzle pieces in the ground But no one ever seems to be digging instead they're looking up towards the heavens it's enough to make me cry but that don't seem like it would make it feel better the answers could be found we could learn from digging down but no one ever seems to be digging instead they'll say... Well how could I have known? I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell if you keep adding stones soon the water will be lost in the well Words of wisdom all around but no one ever seems to listen they're talking about their plans on the paper building up frm the pabement there are shadows from the skyscrapers on the pavement it's enough to make me sigh but that don't seem like it would make it feel better the words are all around but the words are only sounds and no on ever seems to listen instead they'll say... Well how could I have known? I'll tell them it's not so hard to tell if you keep adding stones soon the water will be lost in the well |

They say Taylor was a good girl,
never one to be late complain, express ideas in her brain. Working on the night shift, passing out the tickets, You're gonna have to pay her if you want to park here. Well mommy's little dancer is quite a little secret Working on the streets now, never gonna keep it. It's quite an imposition and now she's only wishin That she would have listened to the words they said...Poor Taylor. She just wanders around, unaffected by, the winter winds here, she'll pretend that She's somwhere else, so far and clear about two thousand miles, from here. - 간 주 중 - Well Peter Patrick pitter patters on the window, the sunny silhouette won't let him in. Poor old Pete's got nothing cuz he's been falling, And somehow sunny knows just where he's been. He thinks that singin on Sunday's gonna save his soul, now that Saturday's gone. And sometimes he thinks that he's on his way, but i can see, that his brake lights are on. He just wanders around, unaffected by, the winter winds here, and he'll pretend that, he's somewhere else, so far and clear, about two thousand miles...from here - 간 주 중 - Such a tough enchilada, filled up with nada, givin what you gotta give to get a dollar bill. Used to be a limber chicken, times have been a ticking, now she's finger lickin to the man, With the money in his pocket, flying in his rocket, only stopping by on his way to a better world. If Taylor finds a better world, then Taylor's gonna run away. |

Well look at all those fancy clothes
But these could keep us warm Just like those. And what about your soul Is it cold Is it straight from the mold And ready to be sold. And cars and phones and diamond rings Bling, bling Those are only removable things And what about your mind Does it shine Or are there things that concern you more Than your time Gone going Gone everything Gone give a damn Gone be the birds when they dont want to sing Gone people All awkward with their things Gone Well look at you out to make a deal You try to be appealing but you lose youre appeal And what about those shoes youre in today Theyll do no good All the bridges you burnt a long the way Youre willing to sell anything Gone with your herd Leave your footprints And well shame them with our words Gone people All careless and consumed Gone Gone going Gone everything Gone give a damn Gone be the birds when they dont want to sing Gone people All awkward with their things Gone |

The air was more than human
And the geat was more than hungry And the cars were square and spitting diesel fumes The bulls were running wild Because their big and mean and sacred And the children were playing cricket with no shoes The next morning we woke a man with a seven hour drive Well there we were stuck in port Blaire Where boats break and children stare And there were so many fewer questions When stars were still just the holes to heaven Mmhmm And there were so many fewer questions When stars were still just the holes to heaven Mmhmm Officials work while friendly Once we drown them with our sweet talk And we bribe them with our cigarettes and booze Disembarking from the port With no mistakes of any sort Moving soundly engine running smooth The next morning we woke a man with the sunrese to the right Moving back north to port Blaire Where boats break and children stare And there were so many fewer questions When stars were still just the holes to heaven Mmhmm Yes and there were so many fewer questions When stars were still just the holes to heaven Mmhmm |

and by the way
you now that hope will make you strange make you blink make you blank make you sink it will make you afraid of change and often blame the box with the view of the world and the ones that fill the frame i turn it up then i turn it off because i can't stand when they start to talk about the hurting and killing whose shoes are we filling the damage and ruin man the things that we're doing we gotta stop, we gotta turn it all off we gotta rewind and start it up again because we fell across the fall line ain't there nothing sacred any more somebody saw him jump but nobody saw him slip i guess he lost a lot of hope and then he lost his grip now he's lying in the freeway in the middle of this mess guess we lost another one optimistic hypocrite that didn't habe the nerve to quit the things that kept him wanting more until he finally reached the core he fell across the fall line ain't there nothing sacred any more |

I would turn on the TV, but it's so embarrassing
To see all the other people, I don't know what they mean And it was magic at first, when they spoke without sound But now this world is gonna hurt, you better turn that thing down, turn it around "It wasn't me", says the boy with the gun "Sure I pulled the trigger, but it needed to be done Because life's been killing me ever since it begun You can't blame me because I'm too young" "You can't blame me, sure the killer was my son But I didn't teach him to pull the trigger of the gun It's the killing on this TV screen You can't blame me, its those images he seen" "You can't blame me", says the media man "I wasn't the one who came up with the plan I just point my camera at what the people want to see It's a two way mirror and you can't blame me" "You can't blame me", says the singer of the song Or the maker of the movie which he based his life on "It's only entertainment and as anyone can see It's smoke machines and makeup, you can't fool me" It was you, it was me, it was every man We've all got the blood on our hands We only receive what we demand And if we want hell then hell's what we'll have I would turn on the TV, but it's so embarrassing To see all the other people, don't know what they mean And it was magic at first, but let everyone down And now this world is gonna hurt, you better turn it around |
