This is a garden, this is a steeple
I hear the crowd before I ever see the people Yours for the making, and for the taking There is a power in the vacuum we are making You and I have a secret world And we can keep it unfurled And pay no attention to the cradle or the grave And when we're crossed, We can say that we're lost In the middle of nowhere think you'll like it a lot And if we're wrong and we end up alone We'll light a candle for their innocent bones You and I have a secret world And we can keep it unfurled And pay no attention to the cradle or the grave You and I have a secret world And we can keep it unfurled And pay no attention to the cradle or the grave And when we're crossed, We can say that we're lost In the middle of nowhere think you'll like it a lot And if we're wrong and we end up alone We'll light a candle for their innocent bones You and I have a secret world And we can keep it unfurled And pay no attention to the cradle or the grave And when we're crossed, We can say that we're lost In the middle of nowhere think you'll like it a lot And if we're wrong and we end up alone We'll light a candle for their innocent bones |

Fill the sky with love
Fill the sky with love I wouldn't mind but she just turned up on the doorstep Wishful and ashen, slightly bedraggled Last time I saw her she was howling at the moon Roaming the forest, lupine and rabid Whoa is she wild? Does she see my inner child? But then she knows it's like a curse To find our chosen roles reversed To unify my universe To call me mellow If only I was half my age and she was older We'd live on ice-cream on Coney Island I though it's gravity that drags down my balloon She stays in orbit way after midnight Woah slip and slide Does she go all dewey-eyed? But then she knows it's like a curse To find our chosen roles reversed To unify my universe To call me mellow She'll dress down for us She'll break new ground for us Watching me cracking up She'll hang round fellas With all the groundswellers Driving me like a truck But then she knows it's like a curse To find our chosen roles reversed To unify my universe To call me mellow But then she knows it's like a curse To find our chosen roles reversed To unify my universe To call me mellow Fill the sky with love [Repeat: x3] |

High time we made a stand and shook up the views of the common man
And the lovetrain rides from coast to coast D.J.'s the man we love the most Could you be, could you be squeaky clean And smash any hope of democracry ? As the headline says you're free to choose There's egg on your face and mud on your shoes One of these days they're gonna call it the blues And anything is possible when you're Sowing the Seeds of Love Anything is possible - Sowing the Seeds of Love I spy tears in thier eyes They look to the skies for some kind of divine intervention Food goes to waste ! So nice to eat, so nice to taste Politician Grannie with your high ideals Have you no idea how the Majority feels ? So without love and a promise land We're fools to the rules of a Goverment plan Kick out the style ! Bring back the jam ! Anything... Sowing the Seeds The birds and the bees My girlfriend and me in love Feel the pain Talk about it If you're a worried man - then shout about it Open hearts - feel about it Open minds - think about it Everyone - read about it Everyone - scream about it ! Everyone Everyone - read about it, read about it Read in the books in the crannies and the nooks there are books to read ! (Mr. England Sowing the Seeds of Love) Time to eat all your words Swallow your pride Open your eyes High time we made a stand and shook up the views of the common man And the lovetrain rides from coast to coast Every minute of every hour - " I Love a Sunflower " And I believe in lovepower, Love power, LOVEPOWER !!! Sowing the Seeds An end to need And the Politics of Greed With love |

How can I be sure ?
When your intrusion is my illusion How can I be sure When all the time you changed my mind I asked for more and more How can I be sure When you don't give me love You gave me Pale shelter You don't give me love You give me cold hands |

28 days of rain
Flash floods in February Back in our boats again Bath water and the baby What am I gonna do? There's been a lot of drinking Looking at ghosts of you While all the world is sinking 10.000 miles into the atmosphere My body shakes Is there a welcome here? Closest thing to heaven How do you do it? Closest thing to heaven, heaven Throw your arms round the world Make love your destination Here we go boys and girls Act like a generation Give me that ball and chain By now it must be hurting Dragging your feet again Just like a beast of burden When one and one and one make two I know I'm high because I've captured you, yeah Closest thing to heaven Yeah, it's you Closest thing to heaven, heaven Look the world right in the eye Eat the countries that are making billions Sweet as homemade apple pie Saved by crumbs for all the starving millions, yeah Closest thing to heaven Closest thing to heaven How do you do it? Closest thing to heaven Hey Closest thing to heaven |

Welcome to your life
There’s no turning back Even while we sleep We will find you Acting on your best behaviour Turn your back on mother nature Everybody wants to rule the world It’s my own design It’s my own remorse Help me to decide Help me make the most Of freedom and of pleasure Nothing ever lasts forever Everybody wants to rule the world There’s a room where the light won’t find you Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down When they do I’ll be right behind you So glad we’ve almost made it So sad they had to fade it Everybody wants to rule the world I can’t stand this indecision Married with a lack of vision Everybody wants to rule the world Say that you’ll never never never never need it One headline why believe it ? Everybody wants to rule the world All for freedom and for pleasure Nothing ever lasts forever Everybody wants to rule the world |

I wanted to be with you alone
And talk about the weather But traditions I can trace against the child in your face Won't escape my attention You keep your distance with a system of touch And gentle persuasion I'm lost in admiration could I need you this much Oh you're wasting my time You're just wasting time Something happens and I'm head over heels I never find out till I'm head over heels Something happens and I'm head over heels Ah don't take my heart Don't break my heart Don't throw it away I made a fire and watching it burn Thought of your future With one foot in the past now just how long will it last No no no have you no ambition My mother and my brothers used to breathing clean air And dreaming I'm a doctor It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand Oh I feel so... Something happens and I'm head over heels And this is my four leaf clover I'm on the line, one open mind This is my four leaf clover |

(Chorus & First verse)
Shout Shout Let it all out These are the things I can do without Come on I'm talking to you Come on In violent times You shouldn't have to sell your soul In black and white They really really ought to know Those one track minds That took you for a working boy Kiss them goodbye You shouldn't have to jump for joy (Chorus) They gave you life And in return you gave them Hell As cold as I ice I hope we live to tell the tale. (Chorus) And when you've taken down your guard If I could change your mind I'd really love you break your heart (Chorus) |

I've got a bone to pick with you cos you're lovin' every minute of the day
Lost in a space between the lines, seems like life begins at forty anyway Must be a case of spot not feather, even though they're boxed together (The orchestra is dead) Emil's Ja'causezi - starting to lose me - didn't I warn you (Floating down the river once again) Solomon Juneau - someone that you know - how we adore you (Floating down the river once again) I've got a plastic cross to bear, gonna pick it up and crash into the sun Fly on a rare collision course when the race is over just as it's begun Scientists will pay for this and rue the day they ever tried to change your world Emil's Ja'causezi - starting to lose me - didn't I warn you (Floating down the river once again) Solomon Juneau - someone that you know - how we adore you (Floating down the river once again) Ave Neru Salam - your secret life is written in your hand Toy guns for everyone - you're needed now, a change is gonna come Scientists will pay for this and rue the day they ever tried to change your world Emil's Ja'causezi...... |
