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? |

She says "wake up, it's no use pretending"
I'll keep stealing, breathing her. Birds are leaving over autumn's ending One of us will die inside these arms Eyes wide open, naked as we came One will spread our ashes 'round the yard She says "If I leave before you, darling Don't you waste me in the ground" I lay smiling like our sleeping children One of us will die inside these arms Eyes wide open, naked as we came One will spread our ashes round the yard |

Chain, chain, chain, chain, chain, chain
Chain, chain, chain, chain of fools Five long years I thought you were my man But I found out I'm just a link in your chain You got me where you want me I ain't nothing but your fool You treated me mean oh you treated me cruel Chain, chain, chain, chain of fools Every chain has got a weak link I might be weak child, but I'll give you strength You told me to leave you alone My father said come on home My doctor said take it easy Whole bunch of lovin is much too strong I'm added to your chain, chain, chain Chain, chain, chain, chain, Chain, chain of fools One of these mornings the chain is gonna break But up until then, yeah, I'm gonna take all I can take Chain, chain, chain, chain, chain, chain Chain, chain, chain, chain of fools |

Be this sunset soon forgotten
Your brothers left here shaved and crazy We've learned to hide our bottles in the well And what's worth keeping, sun still sinking Down and down Once again Down and down Gone again Be this sunset one for keeping This june bug street sings low and lovely Those band-aid children Chased your dog away She runs, returning, sun still sinking Down and down Once again Down and down Gone again |

Your everlasting summer, and you can see it fadin' fast
So you grab a piece of something that you think is gonna last But you wouldn't even know a diamond if you held it in your hand The things you think are precious I can't understand Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine You've been telling me you were a genius since you were seveteen In all the time I've known you I still don't know what you mean The weekend at the college didn't turn out like you planned The things that pass for knowledge I can't understand Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine I've spent a lot of money and I've spent a lot of time The trip we made to Hollywood is etched upon my mind After all the things we've done and seen you find another man The things you think are useless I can't understand Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine |

Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
I could see the city light Wind was blowing, time stood still Eagle flew out of the night He was something to observe Came in close, I heard a voice Standing stretching every nerve Had to listen had no choice I did not believe the information I just had to trust imagination My heart going boom boom boom "Son," he said "Grab your things, I've come to take you home." To keepin' silence I resigned My friends would think I was a nut Turning water into wine Open doors would soon be shut So I went from day to day Tho' my life was in a rut "Till I thought of what I'd say Which connection I should cut I was feeling part of the scenery I walked right out of the machinery My heart going boom boom boom "Hey" he said "Grab your things I've come to take you home." When illusion spin her net I'm never where I want to be And liberty she pirouette When I think that I am free Watched by empty silhouettes Who close their eyes but still can see No on taught them etiquette I will show another me Today I don't need a replacement I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant My heart going boom boom boom "Hey" I said "You can keep my things, they've come to take me home." |

Please remember me, happily
By the rosebush laughing With bruises on my chin, the time when We counted every black car passing Your house beneath the hill and up until Someone caught us in the kitchen With maps, a mountain range, a piggy bank A vision too removed to mention But please remember me, fondly I heard from someone you're still pretty And then they went on to say that the Pearly Gates Had some eloquent graffiti Like 'We'll meet again' and 'Fuck the man' And 'Tell my mother not to worry' And angels with their great handshakes But always done in such a hurry And please remember me, at Halloween Making fools of all the neighbors Our faces painted white, by midnight We'd forgotten one another And when the morning came I was ashamed Only now it seems so silly That season left the world and then returned And now you're lit up by the city So please remember me, mistakenly In the window of the tallest tower Call, then pass us by but much too high To see the empty road at happy hour Gleam and resonate just like the gates Around the Holy Kingdom With words like, 'Lost and found' and 'Don't look down' And 'Someone save temptation' And please remember me as in the dream We had as rug burned babies Among the fallen trees and fast asleep Beside the lions and the ladies That called you what you like and even might Give a gift for your behavior A fleeting chance to see a trapeze Swinger high as any savior But please remember me, my misery And how it lost me all I wanted Those dogs that love the rain and chasing trains The colored birds above there running In circles round the well and where it spells On the wall behind St. Peter So bright on cinder gray in spray paint 'Who the hell can see forever?' And please remember me, seldomly In the car behind the carnival My hand between your knees, you turn from me And said the trapeze act was wonderful But never meant to last, the clowns that passed Saw me just come up with anger When it filled with circus dogs, the parking lot Had an element of danger So please remember me, finally And all my uphill clawing My dear, but if I make the Pearly Gates I'll do my best to make a drawing Of God and Lucifer, a boy and girl An angel kissin' on a sinner A monkey and a man, a marching band All around the frightened trapeze swinger Nah nah nah Nah nah nah Nah nah nah |
