Georgia Hubley

At my house I have got no shackles
You can come and see if you want to
In the walls youll see the mantles
Where the light shines dim all around you
And the streets are paved with gold and if
Someone asks you, you can call my name

You're just a thought that someone
Somewhere, somehow feels you should be here
And it's so for real to see you
To smell, to touch, to know where you are here
And the streets are paved with gold and if
Someone asks you, you can call my name
You can call my name
I hear you calling my name!

By the time that I'm through singing
The bells from the schools of walls will be ringing
More confusions, blood transfusions
The news today will be the movies for tomorrow
And the waters turned to blood, and if
You don't think so
Go turn on your tub
And it's mixed with mud
Youll see it turn to gray
And you can call my name
I hear you calling my name

Big sky looked down at all the people looking up at the big sky
Everyone was pushing one another around
Big sky feels sad when he sees the children scream and cry
Big sky's too big to let it get him down

Big sky's too big to cry
Big sky's too high to see
People like you and me

One day we'll be free
We won't care, just you wait and see
'Til that day can be
Don't let it get you down

And when I think
That the world's too much for me
I think of the big sky
And nothing matters much to me

Big sky looked down on all the people who think they have problems
They get depressed, they hold their head in their hands and they cry
People lift up their heads and look up to the big sky
Big sky's too big to sympathize

Big sky's too occupied
Though he would like to try
Then he'd feel glad inside
Big sky's too big to cry

One day we'll be free
We won't care, just you wait and see
'Til that day can be
Don't let it get you down

And when I think
That the world's too much for me
I think of the big sky
And nothing matters much to me

Too unpressed for strategy so dignity must be spared
Watch the leaves in the empty pool as the widow drew her shade

Season was here
No drums to calm their fear
Let's drink the leper's beer

The leper's playing his salsa game and tempest swept dark land
The lover's turns and parasites over the frying pan

Coffee's brewed
And the men playing cards
And the mystery plane
And the forest winds
Their searching out overy the sea

It's a lot of time
It's a lot of time
For a man who walks on me
For a man who walks on me

That's the way it is
That's the way it is
When a man walks on me
When a man walks on me

Did I tell you of the dark lonely road
I was counting my steps as I made my way home
Days of nothing but time on your hands, weighing on me
Came to my end, undecided
Whether to count what I felt against what I could say
I try not to wonder, or tell you that I'm not willing to wait
'Cause deep in my heart I'm willing, heart's still willing
My brain's impatient, my heart's still willing to wait.
Our love is so important to me
Starts wherever you land, walks right over to me
Days of nothing but time in between, obviously
So unwary, so uncaring
I try not to be part of that, well, that's easy to say
That I try not to wonder, or tell you that I'm not willing to wait
'Cause deep in my heart I'm willing, heart's still willing
My brain's impatient, my heart's still willing to wait.
There's a moment to discover no one can take all the blame
And it's finally clear.
I try not to wonder, or tell you that I'm not willing to wait
When deep in my heart I'm willing, heart's still willing
My brain's impatient, my heart's still willing to wait,
Willing to wait, willing to wait

The beer was talking and it seemed a little bored
Suggested walking for awhile
Thought it'd be dramatic if we walked all night
But I got tired, so I came home
Lay back on the couch to watch TV
The drunks were talking, wasn't long before I grew bored,
Lewis didn't feel the same
I guess they spoke in tongues that wrapped around his brain,
He didn't mind the feeling at all
Remember me sometime when I am far away
And I will try and do the same
Maybe just like you some day I will forget
Every hit song America ever had
Like this is for all the Lonely People,
And Oz never gave nothing to the Tin Man,
And I've been to a desert on a horse without a name

In the middle of nowhere
Thought I heard a sound
Went to seek it out
Track it down

In the middle of nowhere
Broke out in sweat
And I don't know how I got there
All I knew was I was wet

There was no one, nobody there
I was tired and I was scared

Maybe next time I'll know better
Maybe I've learned nothing at all
Nothing at all (x2)

I should have known...(x3)

(Georgia - Ahhh Ahh Ahhh)
Came the day you made your mind to put you down
Raised your voice and found it made a stronger sound

Chorus: Alyda, what have you done to you

Did confusion make you act that self assured
To take the step that you were not yet ready for

chorus
Alyda, what have you done to you

While you whiled away the hour
Do you still the way i knew
Do you dream of something better
Or just something else to do

He said how you hopped until your feet grew corns
Check for some reaction then just hop some more

chorus: Alyda, Alyda, Alyda -
what have you done to you, to you, to you

For the moments slip right through it
Combed his hair, combed his hair
In the feeling of contentment
An actor's actor, an actor's actor
Smile his smile uncomprehending
Took his time, took his time
Wore a hat so he'd impress her
To ride, To ride ..
..

Since I could wait for hours
I could wait and never fall down,
never fall down, never fall down
Face down besde the river (10x)

You may have left your mistake with breakfast
Watching the sun go down
I've been lying awake till dawn now
I'm not ready to face that
I'm not ready to face that thing today

I wish I was high
Brighter than nothing
Smarter than nobody
I've wasted away

I think of the things that matter
And I think of the things that don't
Whatever it is no matter
I hate feeling the way i feel
I hate feeeling the way I eel today

I wish I was high
Brighter than nothing
Smarter than nobody
I've wasted away

I see myself with headphones on
I'm listening to Wake of the Flood (?) (2x)
now I'm high

I wish I was high
Brighter than nothing
Smarter than nobody
I've wasted away
I wish I was high
Brighter than nothing
Smarter than nobody
I've wasted away

I once held her in my arms
She said she would always stay
But I was cruel and treated her like a fool
I threw it all away

One side's mountains in the palm of my hand
Rivers that ran through everyday
Now I must've been mad or I never knew what i had
I threw it all away

Love is all there is
And it makes the world go round
Love and only love it can't be denied
No matter what you think about it
You won't be able to live without it
Take a tip from one who's tried

So if you find someone
Who gives you all of their love
Take it to your heart
Don't let it stray
Because one thing is for certain
You'll surely be hurting
if you thow it all away
if you thow it all away

It's a lot of time
It's a lot of time
For a man who walks on me
For a man who walks on me

That's the way it is
That's the way it is
When a man walks on me
When a man walks on me

It's a lot of time
It's a lot of time
For a man who walks on me
For a man who walks on me

That's the way it is
That's the way it is
When a man walks on me
When a man walks on me

Andalucia when can I see you
When it is snowing out again
Farmer john wants you
Louder and softer closer and dearer
Then again
Needing you taking you keeping you leaving you
In a year and a day to be sure
That your face doesnt alter
Your words never falter -- I love you

Ill be here waiting later and later
Hoping the night will go away
Andalucia castles and christians
Andalucia come to stay
You were lost, once before, on a day much like this
When youd made up your mind not to come
And I couldnt persuade you
Or wait till tomorrow -- or pass the time

For the moments slip right through it
Combed his hair, combed his hair
In the feeling of contentment
An actor's actor, an actor's actor
Smile his smile uncomprehending
Took his time, took his time
Wore a hat so he'd impress her
To ride, To ride ..
..

Since I could wait for hours
I could wait and never fall down,
never fall down, never fall down
Face down besde the river (10x)

seems like falling down
or away lost at sea
or the one that's left behind
or the wake of you and me

maybe I know that
maybe it's better
but I can't forget the time

I know where I am
every day every night
like the one who knows too much
trusts the same old thing

maybe I know that
maybe it's better
but I can't forget the time

realizing nothing
I remember when

maybe I know that
maybe it's better
but I can't forget the time

maybe I know that
maybe it's better
maybe it's nothing
but I can't forget the time

Did I tell you of the dark lonely road

Come won't you walk with me Griselda,
wearing the dress that moonlight shines through.
I am a sad and lonely boy ,
since your mother said I couldn't see you.

Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night,
calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my Griselda.

Do you recall last night Griselda?
Learning the lessons nature taught us.
Watching the fish up the lake,
it was lovely till your mother caught us.

Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night,
calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my Griselda.

Moonflower find upon the window,
give me a foothold for my finding.
I've got a row boat on the lake.
Fishing around and all the sun was shining.

Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night,
calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my Griselda.

I've got a jug of wine Griselda.
Why must you waste your time in sorrow?
Hold out your hand; have no fear.
If we're caught, I'll marry you tomorrow.

Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night,
calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my Griselda.

Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night,
calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my Griselda.

In the midnight moonlight i'll, be walkin a long and lonely mile.
And every time I do, I keep seein this picture of you.

Here comes my baby, here she comes now,
And it can come as no surprise to me, with another guy.
Here comes my baby, here she comes now,
Walking with a love, with a love that's all so fine,
Never could be mine, no matter how I try.

You never walk alone, and you're forever talkin on the phone.
I've tried to call you names, but every time it comes out the same.

Here comes my baby, here she comes now,
And it can come as no surprise to me, with another guy.
Here comes my baby, here she comes now,
Walking with a love, with a love that's all so fine,
Never could be mine, no matter how I try.

I'm still waitin for your heart, cause I'm sure that some day it's gonna start.
You'll be mine to hold each day, but 'till then, this is all that I can say.

Here comes my baby, here she comes now,
And it can come as no surprise to me, with another guy.
Here comes my baby, here she comes now,
Walking with a love, with a love that's all so fine,
Never could be mine, no matter how I try.

All life we work but work is bore,
If life's for livin' what's livin' for?
She lives in a house that's near decay,
Built for the industrial revolution,
But in her dreams she is far away, far away
In Oklahoma U.S.A.
With Shirley Jones and Gordon McRea,
As she buys her papers at the cornershop,
She's walkin' on the surrey with the fringe on top,
Cos in her dreams she is faraway, far away
In Oklahoma U.S.A.,
She walks to work but she's still in a daze,
She's Rita Hayworth or Doris Day,
And Errol Flynn wants to take her away,
To Oklahoma U.S.A.
All life we work but work is a bore,
If life's for livin', what's livin' for?

I told you if i ever caught you fooling round again
That if you were untrue
That you and I are through
But now i've caught you and i know that this should be the end

Though i should tell you so
My heart keeps saying no
Oh if i say goodbye then i am gonna be the one to cry

Cry cry cry cry
Cry cry cry cry
Cry cry cry cry
Cry cry cry cry

Oh i can't bare to be the one to keep you from my side
How could you be so cruel
You played me for a fool

So now what should i do
Oh how i wish i knew
Oh if i say goodbye then i am gonna be the one to cry

Cry cry cry cry

on darkened streets tonight
i see a simple time
i see the warning light
and the summer comes undone
no sorry closing eyes
no cutting down to size
no other thoughts arise
and the summer come undone

on darkened streets tonight
i make a wrong turn right
take in the lonely sight
and the summer comes undone

and i won't wait
and i won't have to
i just waste me time alone
'til the summer comes undone
'til the summer comes undone
'til the summer comes undone

Stopped awhile this morning on my way back home
I had to realize this time that I'd be all alone
Cause she is moving somewhere far away not slow
And though I tried so hard to please her
She said she really had to go
Even though this time it really hurts me bad
I've been through similarities it's not the first break I've had
And I just can't let it bring me down too low
And though I tried so hard to please her
There must be something more to know
Never thought that we would find our end this way
It seemed that everything was going fine
Still with all the things that I can do or say
It won't change the fate I know so well is mine
So I'll stop and look right past the pain
Cause I've been in love before and I can love again
While she's moving somewhere far away not slow
And though I tried so hard to please her
She said she really had to go

I been back and forth

Around and 'roudn

Taking back the last thing that i say

And it made me wonder

Made me wonder just where i went wrong

On a lazy drive i don't know where

Didn't even care if i got home

And it made me wonder

Made me wonder how i could be good

Time won't wait for you

I'll wait for you always

Some things should never change

And it made me wonder

When you wonder just what happens next

A man in the moon,
Taps at the window,
How will we know your silhoutte?
How will we reach you?

Waving his hands,
Shouting,
Is there anymore to that yellow sarong?
It's more than just a bit of grass,
What a landscape.
(What a landscape)

Yeah yeah yeah.
Yeah yeah yeah.
Yeah yeah yeah.
A man in the moon,
Taps at the window,
How will we know your silhoutte?
How will we reach you?
(How will we reach you?)

Yeah yeah yeah.
Yeah yeah yeah.
Yeah yeah yeah.

everybody knows
that you've been untrue
you've gone and broke my heart
and made me blue

turn my head around
when you tore me down

if I had a choice
I might be sad
'cause when I hear yr voice
it makes me glad

baby's not around
but she's leaving town

baby
baby
don't run away
I want you to stay
Im sorry
so sorry
I made you blue
and now you should be sorry too
should be sorry too

now Im so alone
yr far away
I sit here at home
no words to say

to anyone around
'cause you tore me down

tore me down
tore me down
tore me down

Will you ever say what I fear you're dying to say?
Well, I don't mind if I don't think about it
Another sleepless night reading over by the only light
But I don't mind if I don't think about it

What scares me most
I'll keep from you
If you want me to I'll keep from you

Does it makes sense to you, getting old, living life 22?
Well, I don't mind if I don't think about it

Let's go far away
Let's leave today
If you want us to we'll leave today

Will you ever say?

Let's be undecided, let's take our time
And sooner or later, we will know our mind
We'll be on the outside, we won't care
Cause we're together, that's somewhere

And there's a big day coming, about a mile away
There's a big day coming, I can hardly wait

Let's wake up the neighbors, let's turn up our amps
And we know we're used to without a plan
We can play a Stones song, sitting on a fence
And it'll sound pretty good, til I forget how it ends

I woke up early, couldn't go back to sleep
Cause I had been thinking of where it all would lead
So I made you wake up, I said, "Let's take a walk,
I wanna hold your hand, we don't have to talk"

Let's be undecided, let's take our time
And sooner or later, we will know our mind
We'll be on the outside, we won't care
Cause we're together, that's somewhere

And there's a big day coming, about a mile away
There's a big day coming, I can hardly wait

Let's wake up the neighbors, let's turn up our amps
And we know we're used to without a plan
We can play a Stones song, sitting on a fence
And it'll sound pretty good, til I forget how it ends

I woke up early, couldn't go back to sleep
Cause I had been thinking of where it all would lead
So I made you wake up, I said, "Let's take a walk,
I wanna hold your hand, we don't have to talk"

I, I should know
You shouldn't have to tell me
Sometimes it's the way we feel
or the way we feel we feel-
pretty bad

In a double dare
He's got wandering eyes
And I see 'em look at you
looking straight at you-
but I know where they are

I'll walk you home
You take as long as it takes
The sun in the morning sky,
in the morning sky we'll know where we are
We'll know where we are

You know you shouldn't hide but you always do
'Cause even when you're gone, I can see right through
You want disconnection, you want me there enough for 2

Pull a woollen blanket across my eyes
Dream a quiet place for us to fight
Oh no, your heart is broken- don't you think that's a little trite

I climb where I can see- you're close but I won't reach
Blank stare at the TV- CNN's on Channel 3

In the passing lane on 1 and 9
Stuck in sad, car stuck in drive
Oh no, your heart is broken- well,
you can have what's left of mine

I climb where I can see- you're close but I won't reach
Blank stare at the TV- THE HOWLING II's on Channel 3
Oh, I drift off to sleep, while the snow falls on the screen

I was the fool beside you,
I was the fool beside you,
I was the fool beside you
For too long

The things about you
that would drive me wild still drive me wild
But now in a different way

Do you know how I feel
How I feel about you
Do you know this is real
How I feel around you

When I see you look at me
I'm not sure of anything
All I know is when you smile
I believe in everything
Do you know how I dream
How I dream about you
Do you know how I feel
Do you know...

Do you know how I feel
How I feel about you
Doesn't take much to tell
That I love, oh, I...

Everyone is here, but you're nowhere near

Will you stare, will you stare as the final curtain starts to fall
Will you watch, will you watch with closing eyes,
with closing eyes
Everyone, everyone's a little worried, you know I am
But I hate to watch the days go by, watch the days go by
Another day, another time, another way for the moment, watch it for a sign...

Well I don't know,
but I'm pretty sure that I want to shoot it in the back

As the days go by, I'm stepping on them all like ants
I've seen the way that they look at you
Maybe you, or maybe not a guess,
we'll know it after a while
I'm wondering just how this will stop,
how's it gonna stop
Another day, another time, another way for the moment, watch it for a sign...
when to be mine

Well, I used to have the notion I could swim the length of the ocean
If I knew that you were waiting for me
I used to have the notion I could swim the length of the ocean
I'd plumb the depths of every sea for you

I'd escape from my chains
And I'll reach out for you

Maybe I'm in love with you
Maybe, maybe I'm in love with you
I had to contact you, found out I was in love with you
I had to contact

That's it, that's the law, that's the whole of the law
The whole of the law

You know you shouldn't hide but you always do
'Cause even when you're gone, I can see right through
You want disconnection, you want me there enough for 2

Pull a woollen blanket across my eyes
Dream a quiet place for us to fight
Oh no, your heart is broken- don't you think that's a little trite

I climb where I can see- you're close but I won't reach
Blank stare at the TV- CNN's on Channel 3

In the passing lane on 1 and 9
Stuck in sad, car stuck in drive
Oh no, your heart is broken- well,
you can have what's left of mine

I climb where I can see- you're close but I won't reach
Blank stare at the TV- THE HOWLING II's on Channel 3
Oh, I drift off to sleep, while the snow falls on the screen

You know you shouldn't hide but you always do
'Cause even when you're gone, I can see right through

People say that once you dyed your hair
You started showing up everywhere
Well you're standing tall, and you've got nothing at all
So you grab at everything you see

Now the world keeps spinning when you die
While the lights keep flashing in the sky
They'll be sighing after normal sights

Drags up baggage, pretend to read
Demand the pages that you'll never redo
Sun sets down on your skittish heart
Cedar mile, how it's coming apart

Now the world keeps spinning when you die
While the lights keep flashing in the sky
They'll be sighing after normal fights

Pickled eels, lemon peels
Hired hand picks you something new
Rainbow nights, stunning whites
Stars that shine but don't belong to you
The passive fools by the swimming pool
You'll fit right in with their pathetic grins
Stunning tricks, bottomless pits
You remind me where I don't want to be

While the lights keep flashing in the sky
They'll be sighing after normal sights
Now the world keeps spinning when you die

'There is a group of young Chinese who love music as their manner of
expression. They find love in adversity and dedication. They represent
dramatic, living love.'

Let's go change, you hokey little runt who wanted to dance, maybe fifteen
years old, maybe sixteen years old, she says, "Hey man, you all suck!" So I
get on up there, put her on her little ass with my honky stuff, with this
attack on love. A little later on, it don't matter when, I get up back on
the dance floor again. I say, "Hey, baby, what's your name? What's your
name? What bothers you today? Are you ready for a little something to do?"

You, you won't talk about what we see
when the lights are out
And I'm willing to hold your hand while you're lost,
while you're so full
of doubt
Walk for miles, on your own loose ends,
I'll find you there
I'll find you there

You, you walk up thin blue lines possible with reality
And I, I see through small red eyes,
glowing still at your uncertainty
Out of darkness you will come around, I know you will,
I know you will
And I'll find you, and I'll find you there

I see you crawling across the floor
Never see you standing anymore
You take whatever's put in your hand
You ask for more until you can't

Decora

It's not the first time you'll take a fall
Act like you've never sleen double before
We tie deep into the past
Take this chance with me cause it's your last

Oh no, I think I'm falling for a false alarm
Like an all-day second stuck
Until you crunch the right arm
Well if I open my eyes, if I just pay attention to McNew
Well, I just held back
To listen to your cues
So it's not enough I never meant to hold you down
Waiting for the firestorm
Waiting for the false alarm

Well, is it really true?
Well, I know, I mean I guess, uh, why not
Well is it really true, I don't know,
Too hard to figure out
I'm gonna mark my words,
cross my eyes and stomp my feet
Cause I don't want you feeling bad, feeling bad,
feeling
Worse than you do
Well, I'll stand my ground, hide behind a fake smile
Think I'll talk about something else
Just for a little while

Aw, said it once, said it twice, said it -
you can tell it's the same old tune
Straight down to the bitter end
Tell me when there's more to go there soon
It's gonna hold my tongue in place,
think about what to do
If you don't see nothing wrong this time
Well I'm taking it out on you

Eyes go places that you can't see
It's not that easy to hide from me
I hear the whispers everywhere I go
I hear the laughter everywhere I go

The nervous ticking of my heart
Restlessness when we're apart
..

Think about the last thing that we said
Again and again it runs through my head
And I hear footsteps that aren't yours
They sound like yours, but they all do
...

Not much left for me to pray
Why sleep or dream when I'm awake
My eyes in places you forgot to look
My eyes in places you forgot to look

Got something to say, sit down on the bed
Something that I usually leave unsaid
It doesn't come so easily, I guess that's no surprise
I wanna see my heart's reflection in your eyes

Let's lock the door, hide the key
I'll try to look like you if you'll dress up like me
And you play dumb and I'll play too, nobody has to know
I wanna see my heart's reflection in your eyes
In your eyes

Let's jump this ship, let's cut out
Let's get into the wagon and drive until the motor falls out
I want just us two, I don't want to have to hide my heart
I wanna see it in your eyes as we ride on and on

Show me where you keep all your secrets upstairs
Night after night you sleep while they're setting off flares

Someone came and took all the roses away
Now you'll sit showing me tears if you want me to stay
Cause down the street all the meters have run out of time, run out of time

I waited for you as the trees swayed out of time
In a crowded room I pick up your lonely stare
I'll cover for you like a slipcover covers a chair
But someone came and took all the roses away
It was only 5 minutes but it felt like it stretched into a day
Someone came and took all the roses away

Walking on 10th Street
The guy in front of me, Walkman, headphones on,
Stones cranked
The thing that caught my ear, singing loud and clear
Well every couple of steps I heard "Woo-woo"
And he said it so un-self-consciously
That never it would occur to me that
He revealed himself
and I'd offer a blue

I was drunk the night we met, I might try to forget
Except I know so were you
I don't really care, cause we went on from there
And I try not to hide from what is true
The other night I had this dream
You told me what you want from me
I gave it to you instantly
and I woke up without a clue

I wonder what's on your mind
I wonder what's on your mind
Look around and see
What it does to me
I wonder what's on your mind

I think I'll throw it all away
I think I'll throw it all away
And if dreams come back to me
I'll pretend that I don't see
I'll just cover my eyes instead

It'll surely come
It'll surely come
Here it comes again

As he fired up the drum machine
He stole a glance at the empty seats
He took a minute to retune his guitar
As the hour grew late

I wanna send this out to Richie Vey
In his thrift-store corner of the world
His soul is my cheap laugh
As the hour grows late

Julie Christie, the rumors are true
As the pages turn, my eyes are glued
To the movie star and his sordid life
Mr. X and his old-suffering wife
I spent so much time dreaming about Eleanor Bron
In my room with the curtains drawn
See her in the arms of Paul
Say it, I can say no more
As the music swells somehow stronger from adversity
Our hero finds his inner peace
So now I'm looking for a lucky charm
With a needle hanging out of its arm
..

As time goes by I know it's gonna happen
I know it's going away
Gonna take its toll, gonna take its toll
Gonna take my time
And I'm thinking about the way things are
And I'm thinking about the way things were
Thinking about Eleanor Bron
And I'm thinking about a lucky charm
And I'm thinking about the needle
Oh, I'm thinking about the needle
And I'm thinking about...

When she sleeps she shuts out the eyesights of you
When you call her name she trembles at what you might do

Daytime- save her and she might give in
Nighttime- demons who know you can't win

Sleeping demons
They lurk but they don't make a sound
But you won't get up even when they're not around

Daytime- brings out the promise within
Nighttime- demons who know you can't win

Daytime- brings out the promise within
Nighttime- demons who know you can't win
Daytime- brings out the promise within
Demons who know you can't win

For the moments slip right through it
Combed his hair, combed his hair
In the feeling of contentment
An actor's actor, an actor's actor
Smile his smile uncomprehending
Took his time, took his time
Wore a hat so he'd impress her
To ride, To ride ..
..

Since I could wait for hours
I could wait and never fall down,
never fall down, never fall down
Face down besde the river (10x)

When she sleeps she shuts out the eyesights of you
When you call her name she trembles at what you might do

Daytime- save her and she might give in
Nighttime- demons who know you can't win

Sleeping demons
They lurk but they don't make a sound
But you won't get up even when they're not around

Daytime- brings out the promise within
Nighttime- demons who know you can't win

Daytime- brings out the promise within
Nighttime- demons who know you can't win
Daytime- brings out the promise within
Demons who know you can't win

It's gonna be a bumpy night she said
Or something or other I didn't know
It's a messed-up situation
It's a stab in the back when you turn to gold
When you turn to gold

Yeah yeah, do you think it'll work all right?
Set your sight to be unafraid of
The harm that comes from change
I could think about it

What am I supposed to do now?
I had a chance in a million, it slipped away
There's a change in the weather coming
When what once was black and white will slowly turn to gray

Yeah yeah, do you think it'll work all right?
Set your sight to be unafraid of
The harm that comes from change
I could think about it

Yeah yeah, said do you think it could work all right?
Set your sight to be unafraid of
The harm that comes from change
Harm that comes from change

If the satcheting of gentlemen
Gives you grievance now and then
What's needed are some memories of planing lakes
those planing lakes will surely calm you down.

Nothing frightens me more
Than religion at my door
I never answer panick knocking
Falling down the stairs upon the law,
What law?

There's a law for everything
And for Elephants that sing to keep
The cows that agriculture won't allow
Hanky Panky nohow
Hanky Panky nohow
Hanky Panky nohow ohhhhhhh

There's a law for everything
And for Elephants that sing to keep
The cows that agriculture won't allow
Hanky Panky nohow
Hanky Panky nohow
Hanky Panky nohow ohhhhhhh

Well just-a look at that girl
With the lights comin' up in her eyes
She's got to be somebody's baby
She must be somebody's baby
All the guys on the corner
Stand back and let her walk on by
She's got to be somebody's baby
She's must be somebody's baby
She's got to be somebody's baby
She's so fine

She's probably somebody's only light
Gonna shine tonight
Yeah, she's probably somebody's baby all right

I heard her talking with her friend
When she thought nobody else was around
She said she's got to be somebody's baby
She must be somebody's baby
'Cause when the cars and the signs
And the streetlights light up the town
She's got to be somebody's baby
She must be somebody's baby
She's got to be somebody's baby
She's so...

She's gonna be somebody's only light
Gonna shine tonight
Yeah, she's gonna be somebody's baby tonight

I try to shut my eyes
But I can't get her out of my sight
I know I'm gonna know her
But I gotta get over my fright
Well I'm just gonna walk up to her
I'm gonna talk to her tonight

Yeah she's gonna be somebody's only light
Gonna shine tonight
Yeah she's gonna be somebody's baby tonight
Gonna shine tonight
Make her mine tonight
Gonna shine tonight
Make her mine tonight
