One of these days is like a Christmas in April One of these days is like a time in a rush One of these days is like a disco on Death Row When the music is over, save the last dance for me
What difference does it make We all end up in the same wake To dream of love or to dream of hate A prince or a pauper, a doctor or a leper We all end up feeding worms one of these days
One of these days, oh, yeah One of these days, oh, yeah One of these days is gonna take me away
And I can't believe it, no, no How old tramp John slept outside one night and froze It was in the municipal park That he laid his weary bones down
Hey, hey, hey, who am I to pass judgement that way On a prince or a pauper or a priest, it's all the same So when I finally drop off this mortal rock Was it one day too early or one day too late
One of these days, oh, yeah One of these days, oh, yeah One of these days is gonna take me away
And in the end we shall achieve in time The thing they call divine When all the stars will smile for me When all is well and well is all for all And forever after Maybe in the meantime wait and see CHORUS We love the all the all of you Our lands are green and skies are blue When all in all we're just like you We love the all of you And when I cry for me I cry for you With tears of holy joy And did I ever say I'd never play Or fly toward the sun Maybe in the meantime, something's gone CHORUS Well that sounds fine so I'll see you sunshine Give my love to the future of the humankind Okay, okay, it's not okay. While it's on my mind there's a girl that fits the crime For a future love dream that I'm still to find But in the meantime.
Head on a plaque, it's an immediate problem (aaaaah) So you turn and face yourself for the very first time (aaaaah) Well, happiness comes in the form of happiness feels me over (aaaaah) Stupid Cupid, you fucked it this time (aaaaah)
So you consult the TV for breakfast and coffee (aaaaah) But your TV's not hungry, but that's OK (aaaaah) And now, we're not insane, we're just pretending, at least I think we are But who really cares that much anyway
You got nothing to do, you got nothing to smoke No fast drugs to make your asshole choke Nothing like heroin, I am replaced Well, I wonder, wonder, where's my wedding bells
Tonight, I know the horror of you Tonight, I know the horror of you Tonight, I know the horror of you like nobody else Tonight, I know the horror of you (aaaaah)
Got caught in the act at the very wrong time (aaaaah) Found it like striking a match on the gasoline fire (aaaaah) Watch the slug that slides along the edge of a razor blade, it's about the pain (aaaaah) I talk so much shit, I need wings to survive
You got too much to do, you got too much to smoke You feel a little silly, but you try to cope Your brain's on the floor, oh no, what a chore You need another reason and you want some more (aaaaah)

When the world died laughing, laughing at you While others cry hungry you go with out food Still you can see that as the world splits its sides You're one of a million, just a wandering child Because something meant something Nothing to the few Now heaven doesn't haunt you And hell's awful Don't tell me you love me, don't say that I do 'Cause I will believe you, I'll believe you Now you're hurting but you just can't feel You've got a chip on your shoulder and your arm won't heal Sheer paranoia keeps you awake Makes you hungry, makes you ache She'll go enroll me, time and again Well, I could have told you 'cause you're not my friend Still I will believe you, I'll even lie For all of your hurting is just sand in my eyes Like sand in your eyes But you can't see that with sand in your eyes You're just one of a million wandering children

Welcome to this empty ministry of plenty As I'm sure you know We're clearly on display here To remind you should you stray from here Or decide to roam Dossers dream of gossamer And kissing with tongues Well, they're falling in love with anyone Races from all places and all under one sun, Well, it sure was no fun So I got up and ran, ran, ran from Mungo City Mungo City--Where are you? You make us grey when skies are blue Mungo City, in the sky Keeps a watchful eye on you and I Don't think you're even thinking Even though you're thinking: keep it underground They're sending out distress codes And playing with your mind though You won't hear a sound Nazis in the Japanese cars from Japan Well, they're falling in love if only they'd jam I'm telling you the tribesman wouldn't stand for this, man Well, it sure was no scam So I got up and ran, ran, ran from Mungo City Mungo City--Where are you? You make us grey when skies are blue Mungo City, in the sky Keeps a watchful eye on you tonight
Lucy's lost her shoe and she don't know where she put it But I hope she'll find it some day Cause hands that do dishes may be kind to your face But stains they'll never wash away Day in and after, she'd wait up by her window Wait for all the clouds to blow away But she won't recall that cold night in November When her daddy made her play Oh Lucy, what went wrong? You never had it bad I'll think of you before too long And I know you ain't coming back (Oh, Lucy... Oh, Lucy... Oh, Lucy, come back) Lucy's lost her shoe and she don't know where she put it What a terrible shame And if she only knew how to turn back round and get it She wouldn't all the same Sometimes sits and wonders, and sometimes she'll just sit Or making sure that everyone's ok She'll often think of life before November When her daddy made her play Oh Lucy, what went wrong? You never had it bad I'll think of you before too long But I know you ain't coming back Is that such a hard thing to do? She's only got one shoe Lucy, don't be a fool
Goodbye Violet Race... I still love you Goodbye Violet Race... I stil care about you Fear no more, for here lies The body of Violet Race She lay with all the dead rocks and indigenous remains What happened to the place she used to know? What happened to the love she used to show? Goodbye Violet Race... I still love you Goodbye Violet Race... I stil care about you And even though she's dead and gone, she'll always be adored Her life she lost although she won a prize for being a whore But I guess you'll never know how far to go But I guess she'll never know, she'll never know, she'll never know Goodbye Violet Race... I still love you Goodbye Violet Race... I stil care about you Goodbye Violet Race... I still want you

Please excuse me I meant no harm in being born As world falls open wide Like a wounded solider falls Breaks backs in silence Don't fall around me this time Don't fall around me this time
My lost awakening I've found the same as life before When after another lonely wounded solider falls like light fantastic that falls upon my shoulder fall don't fall upon my shoulder
She gave me a call So I gave her a smile When I asked her for love And what I should dial She said 'Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero'
Please excuse me I meant no harm in being born As world falls open wide Like a wounded solider falls Breaks backs in silence Don't fall around me this time Don't fall around me this time
I gave her a car So she gave me a smile When I asked her for love And what I should drive She said 'Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero'
