Clock strikes twelve and moon drops burst
Out at you from their hiding place Like acid and oil on a madman's face His reason tends to fly away Like lesser birds on the four winds Like silver scrapes in May And now the sand's become a crust Most of you have gone away, you have gone away Oh, come Susie, dear, let's take a walk Just out there upon the beach I know you'll soon be married And you'll want to know where winds come from Well it's never said at all On the map that Carrie reads Behind the clock back there you know At the Four Winds Bar Hey, hey Hey, hey Four winds at the Four Winds Bar Two doors locked and windows barred One door to let to take you in The other one just mirrors it Hey, hey Hey, hey Uh, hellish glare and inference The other one's a duplicate The queenly flux, eternal light Or the light that never warms Yes, the light that never, never warms Oh, the light that never Never warms Never warms Never warms The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst Out at you from their hiding place Miss Carrie nurse and Susie dear Would find themselves at Four Winds Bar It's the nexus of the crisis And the origin of storms Just the place to hopelessly Encounter time and then came me... Hey, hey Hey, hey Hey, hey Hey, hey Call me Desdinova Eternal light These gravely digs of mine Will surely prove a sight And don't forget my doll Fixe the consequence Astronomy... a star...

I had this bitch you see, she made lies to me
Her deceit, oh, it gave me a chill But I found out now, that baby that baby ice dog She said, we would wed in Mongolian country Lilies shoot free, but she was snowing me In the mountains, oh, her intent was all too clear It was quite a sin, how the ice caved in I was numb, I could not assist Baby ice went down through cold cold cold ground I said baby, that's the breaks Leading me around like broke down hound dog Crossing me once too often Now she's bound for a lower station She crossed me once too often And now the ladies all fear this Mongolian man With ice down his face you know I could get them involved In unnatural acts with the aid of my cold cold stare They'd like to make it with my big black dog But they just don't know how to ask You know they'd like to try anything that comes into your mind Oh freeze on freeze on freeze on bone to bone |

So grab your rose and ring side seat,
We're back home at Conry's bar The blond girl with her tattoo, Reds and wine, cokes of course Oh my suzy, my suzy, Why did we ever start It's morning now, you'd never know The gin, the gin, glows in the dark, glows in the dark And underneath, the black light, Underneath it all Four and forty redheads meet, Come to doom 'til the dawn With threats of gas and rose motif Their lips apart like a swollen rose Their tongues extend, and then retract A redcap, a redcap, before the kiss, before the kiss. Doors like flint and window panes An endless shadow bar The owner's boys have gone to work To stop big deals behind the bar While outside on the turnpike They got this new hit tune Where thrills become as cheap as gas And gas as cheap as thrills One thrill and mundane here at last Expect the cross one more Lecherous invisible Beware the limping cat Whose black teeth grip between loose jaws Still ripe and fully bloomed A rose that's not from anywhere That you would know or I would care And the owners boys act most cheerfully Back home at Conry's bar When their patrons' thoughts at last Grow too big for their skulls And awful things are happening We've let this drama fold And now the time has come at last To crush the motif of the rose. So grab your rose and ring side seat We're back home at Conry's bar The blond girl with her tattoo Reds and wine, cokes of course Oh my suzy, my suzy Why did we ever start It's morning now, you'd never know The gin, the gin, glows in the da |

Where the plants grow strong and tall Behind the bush there lurks a girl Who makes them strong and tall Villagers call her: quicklime girl Behind her back: quicklime girl Behind the bush: quicklime girl She's the mistress of the salmon salt: quicklime girl In the fall when plants return By harvest time, she knows the score Ripe and ready to the eye But rotten somehow to the core Villagers call her: quicklime girl Behind her back: quicklime girl Behind the bush: quicklime girl She's the mistress of the salmon salt: quicklime girl A harvest of life, or harvest of death One body of life, one body of death And when you've gone and choked to death With laughter and a little step I'll prepare the quicklime, friend For your ripe and ready grave It's springtime now and cares subside And the planting's almost done And fertile graves, it seems, exist Within a mile of that duke's joint Where coast guard crews still take their leave Lying listless in the sun And the quick lime girl still plies her trade The reduction of the many from the one And they call her: quicklime girl Behind her back: quicklime girl Behind the bush: quicklime girl She's the mistress of the salmon salt: quicklime girl A harvest of life, a harvest of death Resumes it's course each day Because it exists by schedule A harvest to live, ...............................

And a little bit of water goes a long way, 'cause it's hot Three good buddies were laughing and smoking in the back Of a rented ford They couldn't know they weren't going far Each one with the money in his pocket Could go out and buy himself a brand new car But they all had the money they had Money they hoped would take them very far The sky was bright, a traffic light, now and then a truck And they hadn't seen a cop around all day They brought everything they needed bags and scales to weigh the stuff The driver said the border's just over the bluff It wasn't until the car suddenly stopped In the middle of a cold and barren place And the other guy turned and spilled Three boys blood, did they know a trap had been lain? They're ok the last days of may, I'll be breathing dry air I'm leaving soon, the others are already there You wouldn't be interested in coming along, instead of staying here They say the west is nice this time of year |

There walked a lonely man
Silent, mute, the only man Not knowing how not knowing why Was he the sole survivor Why should he be alive Breathing still while others died? And the only question Why was he the sole survivor? Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Wind blew across the sand He stood alone, he had no plan And with the last rays of the sun He screamed aloud began to run In his tears he sees his face "I am the end of the human race When I'm gone there'll be no trace For I'm the sole survivor" Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night One night when years had passed The sky shook from a fiery blast And there a starship, saved at last To come rescue this survivor They beckoned him inside But only man, he would not ride Instead he found a place to hide For he's the sole survivor Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night Sole survivor, cursed with second sight Haunted savior, cried into the night |

See them standing in the foothills
Waiting for the kill On wings of fear the terror sweeps Into the city beat CHORUS To defend This is the pact But when life's scorned And damage done To avenge This is the pact On wings of vengeance Taarna finds them Death for barbarians CHORUS Flying over the oasis She is captured And they pull her down Feeling pain (ah) From the air (ah) Close my eyes (ah) And I am there (ah) I feel I'm falling down in a deep dark pit "Pull him down," the soldier said "I'll put an arrow in his head" But the bird flew off instead To save his master, on his back she fled Her time has come Riding her bird high in the saddle She gets her chance to fulfill the pact now As their leader swoops from the clouds She sticks him with her sword then she throws him down The enemy shrivel and die The enemy shrivel and die CHORUS |

You see me now, a veteran of a thousand psychic wars
I've been living on the edge so long Where the winds of limbo roar And I'm young enough to look at And far too old to see All the scars are on the inside I'm not sure if there's anything left of me Don't let these shakes go on It's time we had a break from it It's time we had some leave We've been living in the flames We've been eating up our brains Oh, please, don't let these shakes go on You ask me why I'm weary Why I can't speak to you You blame me for my silence Say it's time I changed and grew But the war's still going on, dear And there's no end that I know And I can't say I'm forever I can't say if we're ever gonna be free Don't let these shakes go on It's time we had a break from it It's time we had some leave We've been living in the flames We've been eating up our brains Oh, please, don't let these shakes go on You see me now a veteran Of a thousand psychic wars My energy's spent at last And my armor is destroyed I have used up all my weapons And I'm helpless and bereaved Wounds are all I'm made of Did I hear you say that this is victory? Don't let these shakes go on It's time we had a break from it Send me to the rear Where the tides of madness swell And been sliding into Hell Oh, please, don't let these shakes go on Don't let these shakes go on Don't let these shakes go on |

I have this feeling that my luck is none too good This sword here at my side don't act the way it should Keeps calling me its master, but I feel like its slave Hauling me faster and faster to an early, early grave And it howls, it howls like hell I'm told it's my duty to fight against the law That wizardry's my trade and I was born to wade through gore I just want to be a lover, not a red-eyed screaming ghoul I wish it'd picked another to be its killing tool Black blade! Black blade! Forged a billion years ago Black blade! Black blade! Killing so its power can grow There's death from the beginning to the end of time And I'm the cosmic champion and I hold a mystic sign And the whole world's dying and the burdens mine And the black sword keeps on killing 'til the end of time Black blade! Black blade! Bringing chaos to the world we know Black blade! Black blade! And its using me to kill my friends Black blade! Black blade! Getting stronger so the world will end Black blade! Black blade! Forcing my mind to bend and bend The black blade Forged a million billion years ago My cosmic sword goes on for eternity Carving out destiny Bringing in the lords of chaos Bringing up the beasts of Hades Sucking out the souls of heroes Laying waste to knights and ladies My master is my slave Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha |

You said you'd be here at a quarter to five
I didn't know if you were dead or alive How long you think that I can sharpen my knife I've got better things to do with my life It's almost the deadline Don't miss the deadline, darling When all your bad dreams will come true Don't miss the deadline It's almost the deadline, darling I wouldn't want it to happen to you Phil screamed at him, and he hung up the phone I wonder if he ever felt more alone He never finished his coffee that night The photo they showed David was a terrible sight He missed the deadline He passed the deadline, darling And I believe that somehow he knew He crossed the deadline He passed the deadline, darling There wasn't a thing anybody could do Listen my darling, now, don't play with fire You find a way to balance faith and desire It's almost the deadline Don't miss the deadline darling Consequences are easily misconstrued Don't miss the deadline It's almost the deadline, darling I couldn't live if it happened to you |

My buddies and me keep looking for the stuff To make us feel the blood rushing through our veins Just to keep on living is bound to be a strain We're hungry boys! We're hungry boys! We're hungry boys! We're hungry boys! Hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry boys! Friday night we take off heading for the city To dance with the lady from the white snow country And if she takes us home and we get a little love That's something can't get enough of We're hungry boys! We're hungry boys! We're hungry boys! We're hungry boys! Hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry boys! Now look at louie he's really got the need Valerie's got the needle but she always makes him plead Louie was the one who really brought the stuff to town But the cops moved in and shot the operation down That's why we're hungry boys! That's why we're hungry boys! That's why we're hungry boys! That's why we're hungry boys! Hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry boys! |

Keep goin' getting higher
New worlds waiting in the sky Escape the feasting and the hunger Not the monsters in our minds Got our hands on a ship And stole away into the night The four of us and pasha dear She to steer and we to fight Fed up with rules and regulations No more laughter left on earth Outer space our one salvation May God help us in our search We fled so fast that we grew younger Put the ship on cruise control We all did our best with pasha But not as good as good ol' joe Monsters, monsters, monsters.....in the night Monsters, monsters, monsters.....in black and white Monsters, monsters, monsters.....out of control Monsters, monsters, monsters.....when you're alone Monsters, monsters, monsters.....feed on themselves Monsters, monsters, monsters.....on the road to hell Love never should have entered It was never in the plan We were finally going to have her And let joe be damned! Joe awoke from a stupor It was clear something was wrong He rushed in and found us with her And in his rage he aimed his gun One shot and it was over Pasha smiled and then was gone... |

There was no light shining through the window
As margaret lie in bed She was wearing cotton pajamas A crucifix above her head She awoke from a dream Her eyes were open Her lips were moving In the dark Speak to me in many voices Make them all sound like one Let me see your sacred mysteries Reveal to me the unknown tongue Reveal to me the unknown tongue She put her hands upon her breasts And they were small and hard and young And everywhere she touched she felt a fire Waiting for the answer that must surely come Is this the way to love? Or is this just the way to die? Speak to me in many voices Make them all sound like one Let me see your sacred mysteries Reveal to me the unknown tongue Reveal to me the unknown tongue Then she took her father's razor And watched it cut into her palm She put her hand up to her mouth To taste the blood so holy and warm She got up in the morning Put on her dress, and patent leather shoes Ate her cereal and kissed her mother Caught the bus and went to school Speak to me in many voices Make them all sound like one Let me see your sacred mysteries Reveal to me the unknown tongue Reveal to me the unknown tongue |

You scorned the love that I gave you
You lied now nothing can save you Blue skies are turning to grey I know the games that you play Winds of rage they start to build Too much madness will lay you under The cards you draw don't help at all Hear the sound of approaching thunder When you see the clouds blacken Remember you've been warned No shelter from my fierce winds Because, I am the storm You'll hear my echoes of anger You'll fear the roar of my thunder Nightmares, confusion will come true Aces and eights are the fate that you drew Lightning bolts become my swords When I pull them from the sky Run my gauntlet of slashing rain You won't survive to testify When you see the clouds blacken Remember you've been warned No shelter from my fierce winds Because, I am the storm |

Tonight it's hot, without you Tomorrow'll be cold Winter will come along Driven by snow Love it makes strangers of us all When we part Oh so thoughtlessly CHORUS Once we breathed the breath Of sweet surrender Pure, pure Arab air filled our Atmosphere But pride it makes stars of us all Until we fall For everyone to see.

They have killed the great sun jester
Who danced between the stars They have stripped him of his manhood Signs of venus and of mars The cynics left him weeping And the jackals left him torn And the jester reaches out bind hands He can touch the stars no more. Chorus: And he took the stars in his hands And as he scattered them he'd shout "i'm the joker of the universe I'm what it's all about." Now he's dying in his grief And the hard men dragged him down They have killed the wild-eyed jester They have killed the fireclown Now his blind eyes seek the starlight And his fingers seek controls To take him into space again Where he was both young and old The dancers stiff with pain And they've made him kneel too long And the madness they have driven out They've left him cold and sane. Chorus He'll never - sing his songs - again.... He'll never dance between the stars - again.... He'll never laught - again.... No he'll never ever laugh again.... Oh, no.... |

Many thousand years ago I saw the silent stranger Walk the earth alone Twenty-seven faces With their eyes turned to the sky I've got a camera And an airtight alibi I know they're out there We see them coming Faster than the speed of light They greet us in the dead of the night Somewhere, someday, someone They'll be light and sound They'll alight on the ground On which we stand Somewhere, someday, someone Will help us to survive They're gonna show us hell And bring us back alive Well, I'm no poet, but I can't be fooled The lies don't count, the whispers do I hear the whispers on the wind They say the earth has fallen due We run in circles Our days are numbered Every night I look away To the heavens and I pray Come to us Come to us Our lights are dim Our roads are crumbling And we don't know what to do We're sick and tired And dying to meet you 'cause we bit off more than We can chew |

Out at you from their hiding place Like acid and oil on a madman's face His reason tends to fly away Like lesser birds on the four winds Like silver scrapes in May And now the sand's become a crust Most of you have gone away, you have gone away Oh, come Susie, dear, let's take a walk Just out there upon the beach I know you'll soon be married And you'll want to know where winds come from Well it's never said at all On the map that Carrie reads Behind the clock back there you know At the Four Winds Bar Hey, hey Hey, hey Four winds at the Four Winds Bar Two doors locked and windows barred One door to let to take you in The other one just mirrors it Hey, hey Hey, hey Uh, hellish glare and inference The other one's a duplicate The queenly flux, eternal light Or the light that never warms Yes, the light that never, never warms Oh, the light that never Never warms Never warms Never warms The clock strikes twelve and moondrops burst Out at you from their hiding place Miss Carrie nurse and Susie dear Would find themselves at Four Winds Bar It's the nexus of the crisis And the origin of storms Just the place to hopelessly Encounter time and then came me... Hey, hey Hey, hey Hey, hey Hey, hey Call me Desdinova Eternal light These gravely digs of mine Will surely prove a sight And don't forget my doll Fixe the consequence Astronomy... a star... Astronomy... a star... Astronomy... a star... Astronomy... a star |

I hear the music, daylight disc
Three men in black said, "Don't report this" "Ascension," and that's all they said Sickness now, the hour's dread All praise He's found the awful truth, Balthazar He's found the saucer news I'm in fairy rings and tower beds "Don't report this," three men said Books by the blameless and by the dead King in yellow, queen in red All praise He's found the awful truth, Balthazar He's found the saucer news Dead leaves always give up motion I no longer feel the motion Where prophecy fails, the falling motion "Don't report this, agents of fortune" All praise He's found the awful truth, Balthazar He's found the saucer news |

With a purpose full of grimace and a terrible sound
He pulls the spitty/spitting/splitting (?) high tension wires down. Helpless people on subway trains Scream to God as he looks in on them. He picks up a bus and he throws it back down As he wades through the buildings toward the centre of town. CHORUS (×2): Oh no, they say he's got to go: Go, go, Godzilla! (yeahh) Oh no, there goes Tokyo: Go, go, Godzilla! (yeahh) Godzilla-zilla-zilla-zilla... Rinji news o moshiagemasu! Rinji news o moshiagemasu! Godzilla ga Ginza hoomen e mukatte imasu! Daishkyu hinan shite kudasai! Daishkyu hinan shite kudasai! [Chorus] History shows again and again How nature points up the folly of men. Godzilla! (×4 |

Raise your can of beer on high And seal your fate forever Our best years have past us by The golden age of leather This was the night not long to come in the year of our Lord A.D. Where in a desert way-house, poised on the brink of eternity Four and ninety studded horsemen closed the knot of honor As only drunken soldiers can And passed from man to man, a wanton child to dead to care That each would find his pleasure as he might For this fantastic night was billed as nothing less than the end of an age A last crusade, a final outrage, in this day of flacid plumage And there was worn no cloth but leather Made supple by years of stinging cinders And here were seen the scars of age For age had been the common call for one last night together Down colored the sky (the ritual feast) Some had died (they were buried with their bikes) Each grabbed a rag (from a man with a sack) Torn strips of color (the red and the black) We made a vow to give it all we had to give We made a vow to die as we had lived They flew the colors, they began to fight They flailed at each other like bugs at a light Bodies and bikes beyond repair Smell of oil and gas in the air Then the wind whipped the desert with a giant hand And the humans and the Harleys caught the shifting sand And the old ranger weathered the storm And he topped the rise by the middle of morn He saw rippled dunes, calm and surreal And a glint of a shaft of chromium steel Golden age |

Riding the underground, swimming in sweat
A rumble above and below, hey cop don't you know? The heat's on alright The hot summer day didn't quit for the night 1277 express to heaven, speeding along like dynamite 1277 express to heaven, rumbles the steel like a dogfight You caught me in it's spell Trying to leave but you know darn well The heat from below can burn your eyes out Blackened out eyes, scratched on a wall Stoned out looks from the crowd, the king will not know On the wall it was said The flash of his cards was sprayed with red 1277 express to heaven, speeding along like dynamite 1277 express to heaven, rumbles the steel like a dogfight You caught me in it's spell Trying to leave but you know darn well The heat from below can burn your eyes out |

All our times have come
Here but now they're gone Seasons don't fear the reaper Nor do the wind the sun or the rain (we can be like they are) Come on baby (don't fear the reaper) Baby take my hand (don't fear the reaper) We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper) Baby I'm your man La-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la Valentine is done Here but now they're gone Romeo and Juliet Are together in eternity (Romeo and Juliet) 40,000 men and women everyday (like Romeo and Juliet) 40,000 men and women everyday (redefine happiness) Another 40,000 coming everyday (we can be like they are) Come on baby (don't fear the reaper) Baby take my hand (don't fear the reaper) We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper) Baby I'm your man La-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la Love of two is one Here but now they're gone Came the last night of sadness And it was clear she couldn't go on Then the door was open and the wind appeared The candles blew then disappeared The curtains flew then he appeared (saying don't be afraid) Come on baby (and she had no fear) And she ran to him (then they started to fly) They looked backward and said goodbye (she had become like they are) She had taken his hand (she had become like they are) Come on baby (don't fear the reaper) |
