And she could hear the highway breathing And she could see a nearby factory She's making sure she is not dreaming See the lights of a neighbor's house Now, she's starting to rise Take a minute to concentrate And she opens up her eyes The world was moving, and she was right there with it, and she was The world was moving, she was floating above it, and she was And she was And she was drifting through the backyard And she was taking off her dress And she was moving very slowly Rising up above the Earth Moving into the universe, and she's Drifting this way and that Not touching ground at all, and she's Up above the yard The world was moving, and she was right there with it, and she was The world was moving, she was floating above it, and she was She was glad about it, no doubt about it She isn't sure what she's done No time to think about what to tell them No time to think about what she's done And she was, hey-hey, hey-hey, hey And she was looking at herself And things were looking like a movie She had a pleasant elevation She's moving out in all directions The world was moving, and she was right there with it, and she was The world was moving, she was floating above it, and she was, hey, hey Joining the world of missing persons, and she was, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey Missing enough to feel alright, and she was And she was And she was And she was And she was And she was And she was And she was And she was |

There's a word for it
And words don't mean a thing There's a name for it And names make all the difference in the world Some things can never be spoken Some things cannot be pronounced That word does not exist in any language It will never be uttered by a human mouth Let X make a statement Let breath pass through those cracked lips That man was my hero And now that word has been taken from us Some things can never be spoken Some things cannot be pronounced That word does not exist in any language It will never be uttered by a human mouth Give me back my name Give me back my name Something has been changed in my life Something has been changed in my life Something must be returned to us Something must be returned to us |

Just beginning to take that love away
Just beginning to take that love away In a minute I'll wash that love away Even now we remember what we used to say Takes a minute to wash that love away Take a clean break: wash that love away Even now we remember what we used to say Even now we remember what we used to say We'll be together if we wash that love away It's a matter Of degrees That's true That's true It's taken To extremes And that's why we Work so hard to Take that love away Take that love away Take that love away Take that love away ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By BYRNE, DAVID <i>Lyrics © Warner/Chappell Music, Inc.</i> |

Think of London, a small city
It's dark, dark in the daytime The people sleep, sleep in the daytime If they want to, if they want to [Chorus:] I'm checking them out I'm checking them out I got it figured out I got it figured out There's good points and bad points Find a city Find myself a city to live in. There are a lot of rich people in Birmingham A lot of ghosts in a lot of houses Look over there!...A dry ice factory A good place to get some thinking done Down El Paso way things get pretty spread out People got no idea where in the world they are They go up north and come back south Still got no idea where in the world they are. Did I forget to mention, to mention Memphis Home of Elvis and the ancient Greeks Do I smell? I smell home cooking It's only the river, it's only the river. |

Here where you are standing
The dinosaurs did a dance The indians told a story Now it has come to pass The Indians had a legend The Spaniards lived for gold The white man came and killed them But they haven't really gone We live in the city of dreams We drive on the highway of fire Should we awake And find it gone Remember this, our favorite town From germany and Europe And Southern U.S.A. They made this little town here That we live in to this day The children of the white man Saw Indians on TV And heard about the legend How their city was a dream We live in the city of dreams We drive on the highway of fire Should we awake And find it gone Remember this, our favorite town The Civil War is over And World War One and Two If we can live together The dream it might come true Underneath the concrete The dream is still alive A hundred million lifetimes A world that never dies We live in the city of dreams We drive on the highway of fire Should we awake And find it gone Remember this, our favorite town |

I see the clouds that move across the sky
I see the wind that moves the clouds away It moves the clouds over by the building I pick the building that I want to live in I smell the pine trees and the peaches in the woods I see the pinecones that fall by the highway That's the highway that goes to the building I pick the building that I want to live in It's over there, it's over there My building has every convenience It's gonna make life easy for me It's gonna be easy to get things done I will relax alone with my loved ones Loved ones, loved ones visit the building, take the highway, park and come up and see me I'll be working, working but if you come visit I'll put down what I'm doing, my friends are important Don't you worry 'bout me I wouldn't worry about me Don't you worry 'bout me Don't you worry 'bout me I see the states, across this big nation I see the laws made in Washington, D.C. I think of the ones I consider my favorites I think of the people that are working for me Some civil servants are just like my loved ones They work so hard and they try to be strong I'm a lucky guy to live in my building They own the buildings to help them along It's over there, it's over there My building has every convenience It's gonna make life easy for me It's gonna be easy to get things done I will relax along with my loved ones Loved ones, loved ones visit the building Take the highway, park and come up and see me I'll be working, working but if you come visit I'll put down what I'm doing, my friends are important I wouldn't worry 'bout I wouldn't worry about me Don't you worry 'bout me Don't you worry 'bout ME.......... |

And all I see is little dots
Some are smeared and some are spots Feels like a murder but that's alright Somebody said there's too much light Pull down the shade and it's alright It'll be over in a minute or two. I'm charged up...Don't put me down Don't feel like talking...Don't mess around I feel mean...I feel O.K. I'm charged up...Electricity The boys are making a big mess This makes the girls all start to laugh I don't know what they're talking about The boys are worried, the girls are shocked They pick the sound and let it drop Nobody know what they're talking about I'm charged up...I'm kinda wooden I'm barely moving...I study motion I study myself...I fooled myself I'm charged up...It's pretty intense. I'm charged up...Don't put me down Don't feel like talking...Don't mess around I feel mean...I feel O.K. I'm charged up...Electricity. |

Damn that television ... what a bad picture!
"Don't get upset, It's not a major disaster". "There's nothing on tonight", he said, "I don't know what's the matter"! "Nothing's ever on", she said, "so ... I don't know why you bother." We've heard this little scene, we've heard it many times. People fighting over little things and wasting precious time. They might be better off ... I thing ... the way it seems to me. Making up their own shows, which might be better than T.V. (CHORUS) Judy's in the bedroom, inventing situations. Bob is on the street today, scouting up locations. They've enlisted all their family. They've enlisted all their friends. It helped saved their relationship, And made it work again ... Their show gets real high ratings, they think they have a hit. There might even be a spinoff, but they're not sure 'bout that. If they ever watch T.V. again, it'd be too soon for them. Bob never yells about the picture now, he's having too much fun. (CHORUS) Judy's in the bedroom, inventing situations, Bob is on the street today, scouting up locations. They've enlisted all their family. They've enlisted all their friends. It helped save their relationship, And made it work again ... So think about this little scene; apply it to you life. If your work isn't what you love, then something isn't right. Just look at Bob and Judy; they're happy as can be, Inventinting situations, putting them on T.V. (CHORUS) Judy's in the bedroom, inventing situations. Dod is on the street today, scouting up locations. They've enlisting all their family. They've enlisted all their friends. It helped save the relationship, And made it work again ... |

Nothing was lost, everything's free I don't care how impossible it seems Somebody calls you, but you cannot hear Get closer to be far away And only one look, and that's all that it takes Maybe that's all that we need All that it takes, I'll bet it's right All it takes, if it's right I got a girlfriend that's better than that She goes wherever she likes There she goes I got a girlfriend that's better than that Now everyone's getting involved She's moving up, going right through my heart We might not never get caught Going right through, try to stay cool Goin' through, stayin' cool I got a girlfriend, she's better than that And nothing is better than you Wait a minute I got a girlfriend that's better than this But you don't remember at all As we get older and stop making sense You won't find her waiting long Stop making sense, stop making sense Stop making sense, making sense I got a girlfriend, she's better than that And nothing is better than this Is it? |

Everyone is trying to get to the bar.
The name of the bar, the bar is called Heaven. The band in Heaven plays my favorite song. They play it once again, they play it all night long. Heaven is a place where nothing ever happens. Heaven is a place where nothing ever happens. There is a party, everyone is there. Everyone will leave at exactly the same time. Its hard to imagine that nothing at all could be so exciting, and so much fun. Heaven is a place where nothing ever happens. Heaven is a place where nothing ever happens. When this kiss is over it will start again. It will not be any different, it will be exactly the same. It's hard to imagine that nothing at all could be so exciting, could be so much fun. Heaven is a place where nothing every happens. Heaven is a place where nothing every happens |

For a long time I felt without style or grace
Wearing shoes with no socks in cold weather I knew my heart was in the right place I knew I'd be able to do these things. And as we watch him digging his own grave It is important to know that was where he's at He can't afford to stop...That is what he believe He'll keep on digging for a thousand years. I'm walking a line-I'm thinking about empty motion I'm walking a line-Just barely enough to be living Get outa the way-No time to begin This isn't the time-So nothing was done Not talking about-Not many at all I'm turning around-No trouble at all You notice there's nothing around you, around you I'm walking a line-Divide and dissolve. Never get to say much, never get to talk Tell us a little bit, but not too much Right about then, is where she give up She has closed her eyes, she has give up hope I'm walking a line-I hate to be dreaming in motion I'm walking a line-Just barely enough to be living Get outa the way-No time to begin This isn't the time-So nothing was done Not talking about-Not many at all I'm turning around-No trouble at all I'm keeping my fingers behind me, 'hind me I'm walking a line-Divide and dissolve. I turn myself around, I'm moving backwards and forwards I'm moving twice as much as I was before I'll keep on digging to the center of the Earth I'll be down in there moving the in the room... I'm walking a line-Visiting houses in motion I'm walking a line-Just barely enough to be living Get outa the way-No time to begin This isn't the time-So nothing was done Not talking about-Not many at all I'm turning around-No trouble at all Two different houses surround you, 'round you I'm walking a line-Divide and dissolve. |

...Pretty!
What is? Brand new? Well that's not the way I think of you. You'll touch me, in a minute; but that's not what I want to do. We are two strangers, We might never have met. We can talk forever, I understand what you said. But I'm...no in love. What does it take to fall in love? Do people really fall in love? ...Happy! Is there time for this? Is this responsibility? Girl time, boy time, is that the difference between me and you? I won't ask any questions, Who needs to make a new start? I choose to believe you, I said before that I can't. ...'Cause I'm not in love. What does it take to fall in love? Why would I want to fall in love? ...Feeling! Take it easy baby...Don't let your feelings get in the way. Some day, I believe, we can live in a world without love. I can answer your questions, If you won't twist what I say. Please respect my opinions, They will be respected some day. Because we don't need love. I believe that we don't need love. There'll come a day when we won't need love. |

Gone away
Someone else son's gone Every night I lie here Hard hurt heart That holds the door Buried in time Lay in the factory bleeding And all the time they walk the line And all the time in asking land Why can't I go with them, down they go Why are we left behind? There'll come a day There'll be an open door How can we get there? We've lost the way Memory Is the strangest thing What a day For dreaming There's a flame Whose light still shines Leading us out Through fields and bridges And all the time they walk the line And all the time in asking land All the miners breathing underground Is there anyone there? What is a man? What are we working for? What will we find there So far away? Cold Cold, and the spanners waving Time No matter what they say My search, crawling Like a wet, cold miner And I wonder, wonder I wonder, wonder And all the time they walk the line And all the time in asking land I seen grasses grow through rock and stone I can picture his face Narrow my head There lies that open door What does it matter How long we wait? What does it mean? Is there no golden law? Now that he's done It's not the same |

Heard of a van that is loaded with weapons, packed up and ready to go Heard of some gravesites, out by the highway, a place where nobody knows The sound of gunfire, off in the distance, I'm getting used to it now Lived in a brownstore, lived in the ghetto, I've lived all over this town This ain't no party, this ain't no disco, this ain't no fooling around No time for dancing, or lovey dovey, I ain't got time for that now Transmit the message, to the receiver, hope for an answer some day I got three passports, a couple of visas, you don't even know my real name High on a hillside, the trucks are loading, everything's ready to roll I sleep in the daytime, I work in the nightime, I might not ever get home This ain't no party, this ain't no disco, this ain't no fooling around This ain't no mudd club, or C. B. G. B., I ain't got time for that now Heard about Houston? Heard about Detroit? Heard about Pittsburgh, P. A.? You oughta know not to stand by the window somebody might see you up there I got some groceries, some peant butter, to last a couple of days But I ain't got no speakers, ain't got no heaphones, ain't got no records to play Why stay in college? Why go to night school? Gonna be different this time Can't write a letter, can't send a postcard, I can't write nothing at all This ain't no party, this ain't no disco, this ain't no fooling around I'd like to kiss you, I'd love you hold you I ain't got no time for that now Trouble in transit, got through the roadblock, we blended with the crowd We got computer, we're tapping pohne lines, I know that ain't allowed We dress like students, we dress like housewives, or in a suit and a tie I changed my hairstyle, so many times now, I don't know what I look like! You make me shiver, I feel so tender, we make a pretty good team Don't get exhausted, I'll do some driving, you ought to get some sleep Get you instructions, follow directions, then you should change your address Maybe tomorrow, maybe the next day, whatever you think is best Burned all my notebooks, what good are notebooks? They won't help me survive My chest is aching, burns like a furnace, the burning keeps me alive Try to stay healthy, physical fitness, don't want to catch no disease Try to be careful, don't take no chances, you better watch what you say |

Mojique sees his village from a nearby hill
Mojique thinks of days before Americans came He sees(serves) the foreigners in growing numbers He sees the foreigners in fancy houses He dreams of days that he can still remember...now. Mojique holds a package in his quivering hands Mojique sends the package to the American man Softly he glides along the streets and alleys Up comes the wind that makes them run for cover He feels the time is surely now or never...more. The wind in my heart The wind in my heart The dust in my head The dust in my head The wind in my heart Tu sei sgangheraaa........AT THIS POINT (Come to) Drive them away Drive them away. Mojique buys equipment in the market place Mojique plants devices through the free trade zone He feels the wind is lifting up his people He calls the wind to guide him on his mission He knows his friend the wind is always standing...by. Mojique smells the wind that comes from far away Mojique waits for news in a quiet place He feels the presence of the wind beside(around) him He feels the power of the past behind him He has the knowledge of the wind to guide him...on. |

Nothin gets you down Nothing strikes your fancy Nothing turns you on Somebody is waiting in the hallway Somebody is falling down the stairs Set someone free, break someone's heart Stand up help us out Ev'rything is divided Nothing is complete Ev'rything looks impressive Do not be deceived You don't have to wait for more instructions No one makes a monkey out of me We lie on our backs, feet in the air Rest and relaxation, rocket to my brain Snap into position Bounce till you ache Step out of line And you end up in jail Bring me a doctor I have a hole in my head But they are just people And I'm not afraid Doctor Doctor We have nothing in our pockets We continue But we have nothing left to offer Faces pressed against the window Hey! they are just my friends Check this out don't be slick Break our backs it goes like this . . . We are born without eyesight We are born without sin And our mama protects us From the cold and the rain We're in no hurry sugar and spice We sing in the darkness We poen our eyes (open up) I can't believe it And people are strange Our president's crazy Did you hear what he said Business and pleasure Lie right to your face Divide it in sections And then give it away There are no big secrets Don't believe what you read We have great big bodies We got great big heads Run-a-run-a-run it all together Check it out - still don't make no sense Makin' flippy floppy Tryin to do my best Lock the door We kill the beast Kill it! |

Do you remember anyone here?
No you don't remember anything at all I'm sleeping, I'm flat on my back Never woke up, had no regrets There's a party in my mind...And it never stops There's a party up there all the time...They'll party till they drop Other people can go home...Other peoplle they can split I'll be here all the time...I can never quit Take a walk through the land of shadows Take a walk through the peaceful meadows Try not to look so disappointed It isn't what you hoped for, is it? There's a party in my mind...And I hope it never stops I'm stuck here in this seat...I might not stand up Other people can go home...Everyone else will split I'll be here all the time...I can never quit Everything is very quiet Everyone has gone to sleep I'm wide awake on memories There memories can't wait. |

In 1950 when I was born
Papa couldn't afford to buy us much He said be proud of what you are There's something special 'bout people like us People like us (Who will answer the telephone) People like us (Growing as big as a house) People like us (Gonna make it because) We don't want freedom We don't want justice We just want someone to love. Someone to love. I was called upon in the 3rd grade class I gave my answer and it caused a fuss I'm not the same as ev'ryone else And times were hard for people like us People like us (Who will answer the telephone) People like us (Growing as big as a house) People like us (Gonna make it because) We don't want freedom We don't want justice We just want someone to love. Someone to love. What good is freedom? God laughs at people like us I see it coming Like a light shining down from above The clouds roll by and the moon comes up How long must we live in the heat of the sun Millions of people are waitin' on love And this is a song about people like us People like us (Who will answer the telephone) People like us (Growing big as a house) People like us (Gonna make it because) We don't want freedom We don't want justice We just want someone to love. Someone to love. Someone to love. Someone to love. |

I see the shapes,
I remember from maps. I see the shoreline. I see the whitecaps. A baseball diamond, nice weather down there. I see the school and the houses where the kids are. Places to park by the fac'tries and buildings. Restaunts and bar for later in the evening. Then we come to the farmlands, and the undeveloped areas. And I have learned how these things work together. I see the parkway that passes through them all. And I have learned how to look at these things and I say, I wouldn't live there if you paid me. I couldn't live like that, no siree! I couldn't do the things the way those people do. I couldn't live there if you paid me to. I guess it's healthy, I guess the air is clean. I guess those people have fun with their neighbors and friends. Look at that kitchen and all of that food. Look at them eat it' guess it tastes real good. They grow it in the farmlands And they take it to the stores They put it in the car trunk And they bring it back home And I say ... I say, I wouldn't live there if you paid me. I couldn't live like that, no siree! I couldn't do the things the way those people do. I wouldn't live there if you paid me to.

The sun is going down And the dogs are starting to howl We stay out after dark Eating cotton candy And the music's playing... How we all laughed! We split our sides The cameras flashed We almost died!

There was a time before we were born If someone asks, this is where I'll be . . . where I'll be Hi yo We drift in and out Hi yo sing into my mouth Out of all those kinds of people You got a face with a view I'm just an animal looking for a home Share the same space for a minute or two And you love me till my heart stops Love me till I'm dead Eyes that light up, eyes look through you Cover up the blank spots Hit me on the head Ah ooh |

Think of London, a small city
It's dark, dark in the daytime The people sleep, sleep in the daytime If they want to, if they want to [Chorus:] I'm checking them out I'm checking them out I got it figured out I got it figured out There's good points and bad points Find a city Find myself a city to live in. There are a lot of rich people in Birmingham A lot of ghosts in a lot of houses Look over there!...A dry ice factory A good place to get some thinking done Down El Paso way things get pretty spread out People got no idea where in the world they are They go up north and come back south Still got no idea where in the world they are. Did I forget to mention, to mention Memphis Home of Elvis and the ancient Greeks Do I smell? I smell home cooking It's only the river, it's only the river. |

Lost my shape-Trying to act casual!
Can't stop-I might end up in the hospital I'm changing my shape-I feel like an accident They're back!-To explain their experience Isn't it weird/Looks too obscure to me Wasting away/And that was their policy I'm ready to leave-I push the fact in front of me Facts lost-Facts are never what they seem to be Nothing there!-No information left of any kind Lifting my head-Looking for danger signs There was a line/There was a formula Sharp as a knife/Facts cut a hole in us There was a line/There was a forula Sharp as a knife/Facts cut a hole in us I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting... I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting... I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting... The feeling returns/Whenever we close out eyes Lifting my head/looking around inside The island of doubt-It's like the taste of medicine Working by hindsight-Got the message from the oxygen Making a list-Find the cost of opportunity Doing it right-Facts are useless in emergencies The feeling returns/Whenever we close out eyes Lifting my head/Looking around inside. Facts are simple and facts are straight Facts are lazy and facts are late Facts all come with points of view Facts don't do what I want them to Facts just twist the truth around Facts are living turned inside out Facts are getting the best of them Facts are nothing on the face of things Facts don't stain the furniture Facts go out and slam the door Facts are written all over your face Facts continue to change their shape I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting... I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting... I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting... |

And all I see is little dots
Some are smeared and some are spots Feels like a murder but that's alright Somebody said there's too much light Pull down the shade and it's alright It'll be over in a minute or two. I'm charged up...don't put me down Don't feel like talking...don't mess around I feel mean...I feel o.k. I'm charged up...electricity The boys are making a big mess This makes the girls all start to laugh I don't know what they're talking about The boys are worried, the girls are shocked They pick the sound and let it drop Nobody know what they're talking about I'm charged up...I'm kinda wooden I'm barely moving...I study motion I study myself...I fooled myself I'm charged up...it's pretty intense. I'm charged up...don't put me down Don't feel like talking...don't mess around I feel mean...I feel o.k. I'm charged up...electricity. |

For a long time I felt without style or grace
Wearing shoes with no socks in cold weather I knew my heart was in the right place I knew I'd be able to do these things. And as we watch him digging his own grave It is important to know that was where he's at He can't afford to stop...That is what he believe He'll keep on digging for a thousand years. I'm walking a line I'm thinking about empty motion I'm walking a line Just barely enough to be living Get outta the way No time to begin This isn't the time So nothing was done Not talking about Not many at all I'm turning around No trouble at all You notice there's nothing around you, around you I'm walking a line Divide and dissolve. Never get to say much, never get to talk Tell us a little bit, but not too much Right about then, is where she give up She has closed her eyes, she has give up hope I'm walking a line I hate to be dreaming in motion I'm walking a line Just barely enough to be living Get outta the way No time to begin This isn't the time So nothing was done Not talking about Not many at all I'm turning around No trouble at all I'm keeping my fingers behind me, 'hind me I'm walking a line Divide and dissolve. I turn myself around, I'm moving backwards and forwards I'm moving twice as much as I was before I'll keep on digging to the center of the Earth I'll be down in there moving the in the room... I'm walking a line Visiting houses in motion I'm walking a line Just barely enough to be living Get outta the way No time to begin This isn't the time So nothing was done Not talking about Not many at all I'm turning around No trouble at all Two different houses surround you, 'round you I'm walking a line Divide and dissolve. |

I think that we can signify our love now,
Ooh girl, you can initiate an impulse of love. Stay hungry, stay hungry, stay hungry Move a muscle, move a muscle, move a muscle. Make a motion, make a motion, make a motion. Pull it tighter, pull it tighter, pull it tighter. Double beatin', double beatin', double beatin' Double beatin', double beatin', double beatin' Palpitation, palpitation, palpitation. Stay hungry, stay hungry, stay hungry. Here's that rhythm again. Here's my shoulder blade. Here's the sound I made. Here's the picture I saved. Here I am. |
