I can't help my reflections
Can't escape your inflections Bamboo sticks and bed sheets Bedouin's alive and well Castles rise up from the warm grey sand Before the real buildings rose up high Watching Cinnabar's dancing By the bridge at the end of the dusty road Tickle & Scratch on the old black stool Mince & potato holiday meal Sandy & Pipkin on lunch time tele Memory is alive and well Both of you irreplaceable Never thought you'd be apart From South Shields to Dorset A long and finite journey |

Here today, here tomorrow Gone today, gone tomorrow Amaranth, you're the overseer of all Never gonna fall Amaranth, eternally lie, never gonna die You're timeless You're never gonna fade You've got no need to pray Timeless Wish I could be like you Forever blessed with life We never win, we never lose We always battle through We climb up high, we lay down low But we never follow the flow We never arrive and we never depart We're not seen as modern But we're state of the art Here today, here tomorrow Gone today, gone tomorrow Amaranth, sitting pretty in the mud Took your chance and survived the flood Amaranth, mocking flesh and blood Though I don't disagree You're timeless Well, you've seen it all before What lies behind that door Timeless Watching us fade We're gonna tear it all apart I lie awake at night Empty, for fear of another worldly nightmare We journeyed through green valleys And along the rivers of life In search of a holy chalice To provide us all with the wisdom That we may need to conquer Our darkest thoughts and emotions Never once looking behind us For fear of loss in our faith But we never lost our faith What, what? You don't believe in us? You fools! For if you perish Then I will wither You are my spirit We will fade together I will guide you Never fail you Keep you breathing Spare your lives Through whatever may come your way Through wars and famine Disease and flooding I will always be at your side And your love lies bleeding Swamped by fear and misunderstanding But our resolve and constant searching Will nourish our dreams and keep us thriving |

Part One: Transcendence
As we transcend the realms of mere mortality Our souls released as we salute infinity Visions like these exist in our minds Chasing our dreams, forever, all time Part Two: Heaven Was And Will Be Past life fascinations Meddling with the spirits Seance and science Similar or separate Strange ways, in the old days Looking back with affection (and a wry smile!) We've seen it all before And I guess we'll see it again Trying to be so clever Beating the natural at its own game We'll never build a perfect world We'll never build a perfect world Before, after and beyond Looking to the future Planning, speculating Peculiar priorities Not always in order Utopian ideals Dreams of Nirvana (heaven was and will be!) We've seen it all before And I guess we'll see it again Trying to be so clever Beating the natural at its own game We'll never build a perfect world We'll never build a perfect world Before, after and beyond Dereliction of our duties In current situations Half-hearted lip service Of limited duration By those who Have the power to Help us to Overcome our Worldly problems And solve them Once and for all We've seen it all before And I guess we'll see it again We're trying to be so clever Beating the natural at it's own game We'll never build a perfect world We'll never build a perfect worid Before, after and beyond We'll never build a perfect world Whatever happened to that perfect world? Before, alter and beyond Past Imperfect Present Imperfect Future Imperfect Forever Imperfect |

Open your arms, embrace a new dawn
It's almost here Can you feel it creeping up behind you? Belt up and brace yourselves, now is our time Take a deep breath and hold on to the wire This is the start of something so good People get ready for the ride of your lives If you believe that you'll believe anything! Open your arms and embrace a new dawn Grasp the windows of opportunity and make them your own It maybe a touch idealistic but we've all got to have a dream Life without focus is no life at all The excitement is mounting It's all too much to bear |

Welcome to my chamber There's so much here to do You can laugh or joke Or curse and swear And run the country too Deep down in the belly Of your revered democracy You can say just what you want to say But don't you disagree with me, no... If you have a local problem You can come and share it with us We'll do our best to help you But don't you make too much of a fuss Here, in the chamber of horrors, horrors Here, in the chamber of horrors, horrors |

Propping up my mortal coil trying hardest not to drown Alcohol delivers my need and my head is spinning round Falling deeper in to the grip of a wild imagination In my subject haze, I can't help myself smiling The lure of the dollar signs, I must say is quite appealing The cogs begin to fire and spark, moving in to overload Voices sing, the music starts, this show is on the road Dreams of tomorrow Fuel our determination Dreams of tomorrow Big league syncopation Time is closing again, I got to pack up my dream bags and go Out in to a cold winter's night, out in to the real world Down and out trying to work it out in which direction to go I can see them laughing at me, they'll never, ever know Dreams of tomorrow Fuel our determination Dreams of tomorrow Big league syncopation Dreams of tomorrow Fuel our determination Dreams of tomorrow Big league syncopation Dreams of tomorrow Dreams of tomorrow Dreams of tomorrow |

Alive and high kicking at Hammersmith O... So good So good I can close my eyes and picture movement so serene Beauty in full motion a true whimsical princess... Oh yes... So good, so sensual So good, so sensual, sensual, sensual... Evaporation, evaporation, where did you go to? Where did you go? Evaporation, evaporation, I've really missed you So much Although a decade has passed I still think of you It only seems like yesterday I know you are no child but I can feel your innocence When I visualise, in my mind, in my head, oh yes! I doubt if you'll ever know me But it would warm me so much if you did, oh if you did You take all my breath away and send my pulse a racing Into overdrive, you do... Without fail So good, so sensual So good, so sensual, sensual Evaporation, evaporation, where did you go to? Where did you go? Evaporation, evaporation, I've really missed you So much Not so much as a whisper you further the enigma Although it seems like yesterday If only I could talk to you If only I could meet you If only we could harmonise together If only I could sing with you If only I could breath you Maybe we could harmonise together Evaporation, evaporation, where did you go to? Where did you go? Evaporation, evaporation, I've really missed you So much Evaporation, evaporation, it's good to see you back again In the fold Evaporation, evaporation, I've really missed you So much Don't stay too long Don't evaporate Don't evaporate... |

As unexpected vision in a faraway foreign land
You took away my heart But I couldn't take your hand Floating on the mist by a willow-lined lake You played the part of temptress Or was it just my mistake? To the backdrop of a chateau And an antiquated mill You enchanted my soul And I was captured until I realised that fate was never on my side Then you drifted out of view And the moment's magic died Je croyais t'avoir vue Je suis sur que je t'ai vue Mais non, je sais que je t'ai vue Je t'ai vu I saw you Or were you just a passing shadow Or were you just a passing dream Tell me, were you just a passing shadow Or were you just a broken dream Or were you just apassing shadow Or were you just a broken dream |

They say the clock is always ticking away
But I say, it's only just started It all comes and it all goes and then it all comes again constantly turning, turning in circles It's coming back to haunt who ever wants to be haunted Spooky! Life is a roller coaster... to some And to those... this roller coaster Is about to start again Yes, it's about to start again We've paid our entrance fee Time after time Year after year Eyes down, hands on the wheel And now we're at the front of the starting grid again Ready for the off Here we go, here we go again We got to watch out for the other 'bad' guys cause they don't play it straight We're whiter than white, most of the time anyway Got to play by the rules, our rules Oh what a surprise, what a surprise!! Ain't going to take any more lies!! |

I could be God or I could be the Devil
I could be a force for good or I could be evil I can smile like an Angel Or I can roar like a demon I can be timid, quiet as a mouse Or I could go crazy like a psycho killer I could be human, shock horror Or perhaps some otherworldly creature Which way will I go? It really depends on how I feel I can always be God He can exist deep inside of me But it doesn't make me better or a better person Perhaps it just gives me an excuse to do just what I want to do God and the Devil are not so different Both manipulate in their own ways Which way shall I go? It really depends on how I feel Am I happy or am I sad Am I rational or am I mad It's all a matter of perspective Yes I guess it's all relative Am I the poison Am I the vice It's for someone else to decide... I COULD BE GOD I could behave like a crazed maniac Or I could sit quietly watching the carnage on the TV But I'm still the same multi faceted me It seems so ridiculous as I sit there moulded to the sofa Contentedly sipping my Earl Grey tea I can hide behind my own God He will forgive me all of my sins Give me carte blanche to do what I want Just as long as I repent And it's all a matter of perspective Yes I guess it's all relative Am I the poison Am I the vice It's for someone else to decide... I COULD BE GOD Sanity, insanity, there's a fine line between the two You can see me how you want to see me now I got a different perception to you But it could be a different me to what others may see, you see?

Like a jigsaw, our inheritance builds us, moulds us
As individuals, hybrids, mongrels Never quite perfect, but perfect in our own way We are different from our kin, though parts of us are the same There is a part of me that is my ancestry Therefore am I not free, am I unique? I am imago We are imago We are all imago Imago We carry traits of our relatives Through generations of gradual change We carry on the order natural chaos that binds us In to living, breathing human or not so human beings But our legacy, offspring keeps us searching through tinted eyes There is a part of me that is my ancestry Therefore am I not free, am I unique? I am imago We are imago We are all imago Imago I am imago We are imago We are all imago Imago |

I dreamt of you
Skirt billowing in the breeze Angelic smile on your pretty face So young, so fresh Like new leaves in the springtime It makes me shudder When I think of what happened Julie Anne - is that you that I can hear? Julie Anne - are you trying to call my name? Julie Anne - I'll never forget you as long as I live Julie Anne - there'll always be a place for you in my heart Laughing and fooling In the long grass of summer Chasing in circles around the old tower Fond recollections Of the best days of our lives No one can take those memories away Julie Anne - I can sense that you are near Julie Anne - are you trying to call my name? Julie Anne - I'll never leave you as long as I live Julie Anne - there'll always be a place for you in my heart Slow motion miracles So vivid, so real Julie Anne - is that you that I can hear? Julie Anne - are you trying to call me? Are you trying to call my name ? Julie Anne - I'll never forget you as long as I live Julie Anne - there'll always be a place for you in my heart Julie Anne - is that you, is that you that I can hear? Are you trying to call me?

Floating in the dead sea salts, staring at the sky above
Watching all the payloads pass, crushing the peace white dove Turning the pages of a paper, images of hate and war Tweaking at my conscience, what is it all for? Drifting ion the dead sea salts, staring at the endless blue Looking for another opening, trying to get some truth Should I stay above or should I go below Would I find a better place to drown in my sorrow? Karma for one, karma for one Lost in my world Silent in my world Karma for one, karma for one Safe in my world Me and my karma for one Lying in the dead sea salts, staring at the vapour trails The beauty of the beast above, such irony beguiling me Aloof and alone in the sky, I wonder if they wonder why? Pushing the button of fate, another terrorist state Soaking in the dead sea salts, waiting for the World to turn I could wait a million years in this pool of salty tears Maybe I should drift away lighten the weight on my shoulders Could I find a better way to live all my tomorrows? Karma for one, karma for one Lost in my world Silent in my world Karma for one, karma for one Safe in my world Me and my karma for one Shooting up the shanty towns, blowing holes in the roads to freedom A sad matter of a sick deja vu, yes we've seen it all before Bathing in the blood of the victims of yet another war of attrition It never had to be but it is, it is now, it is here, it is real Here in the heart of the Holy Land, surely there's some contradiction Here's to the end Cheers to the end Here's to the end! |

It's getting late in the evening
And the party is almost over A quarter to three, we are alcohol free And the music's faded away It's just you and me sinking further into the sofa Everybody's gone to say hello to the moon Drifting together into the realms Of another dimension Where nothing is ever Quite as it appears to be Always the unexpected Lurking, around every corner Now it seems we are standing on the middleground A no man's land, hearing unfamiliar sounds My vulnerability, it's scaring me I'm not so sure about this middleground Everything is calm The sounds have all disappeared Get back on the tracks you know There really is nothing to fear As long as we stay on the path that leads to ecstasy Comforting each other, and our minds will be free And now it seems we're caught up in the middleground A no man's land hearing unfamiliar sounds My sensibility, it's deserting me Not so sure about this middleground Now I feel trapped in the middleground It's plain to see, it's not easy When you're caught in the middleground Julius Caesar beware of the Ides They are coming to get you And the house on the hill, is feeling quite ill Too many spirits you know! Poor old Canute cannot hold back the sea Keeps getting confused between reality and fantasy... And now it seems we're leaving the middleground Rising above the chaos on which we're staring down Moving further into the distance Now we're flying away from the middleground Towards the morning and more familiar sounds Not so keen on this great divide Got to keep well clear of the middleground It's quarter to nine and time to rise, again |

It's getting late in the evening
And the party is almost over A quarter to three, we are alcohol free And the music's faded away It's just you and me sinking further into the sofa Everybody's gone to say hello to the moon Drifting together into the realms Of another dimension Where nothing is ever Quite as it appears to be Always the unexpected Lurking, around every corner Now it seems we are standing on the middleground A no man's land, hearing unfamiliar sounds My vulnerability, it's scaring me I'm not so sure about this middleground Everything is calm The sounds have all disappeared Get back on the tracks you know There really is nothing to fear As long as we stay on the path that leads to ecstasy Comforting each other, and our minds will be free And now it seems we're caught up in the middleground A no man's land hearing unfamiliar sounds My sensibility, it's deserting me Not so sure about this middleground Now I feel trapped in the middleground It's plain to see, it's not easy When you're caught in the middleground Julius Caesar beware of the Ides They are coming to get you And the house on the hill, is feeling quite ill Too many spirits you know! Poor old Canute cannot hold back the sea Keeps getting confused between reality and fantasy... And now it seems we're leaving the middleground Rising above the chaos on which we're staring down Moving further into the distance Now we're flying away from the middleground Towards the morning and more familiar sounds Not so keen on this great divide Got to keep well clear of the middleground It's quarter to nine and time to rise, again |

from Galahad - Nothing Is Written (1991)
A wave of humility is sweeping across from the East
Former hard line heroes have been humbled to their knees Corridors of power echo with rumours of change Nothing in our history forever stays the same Silent revolution - not a General to be heard People power talking - the power of the spoken word Quiet revolution - a peaceful pragmatic approach Real people power - a subject not often broached The puppet master pulls the strings, the marionettes are weaving In and out, side to side to escape their master's teasing The voice of reason from the Motherland is holding to its course Weeding out dissension and silencing the hawks Silent revolution - not a General to be heard People power talking - the power of the spoken word Quiet revolution - a peaceful pragmatic approach Real people power - a subject not often broached Reform, react, a clearer, brighter destiny Reform, react, a safer world for you and for me Armchair observers might not get the whole picture Who understands everything there is to understand The mere thought of hope and increased democracy Is reward enough in and of itself, well we'll see What of the ordinary people? The one's who've had to suffer Who've lived with austerity And never had the privileged pleasures Silent revolution - not a General to be heard People power talking - the power of the spoken word Quiet revolution - a peaceful pragmatic approach Real people power - a subject not often broached Constructive revolution - building blocks to a better life People power talking - time has come to turn the tide |

You promise so much, but deliver so little
Make out you care, despite the fact that you're so fickle Our eyes can see clearly and our ears can hear Still, everything you say is all so unclear Avoiding the questions with the answers you give The con goes on and on, how can we believe? Are you speaking in tongues? or just dodging the issues Or busy stocking up on extra three ply tissues! Myopia, myopia ... too blind to see the truth Myopia, myopia ... as history will prove Myopia, myopia ... where is the real you? Myopia, myopia... True colours, shining through Bland and benign are the politics you deal On both sides of the house, such a slow turning wheel The passion is lacking, the rhetoric is stale How can you succeed where others always fail? Can I have a pair of your rose tinted glasses? So life looks much better for all us lower classes Why should we suffer this barrage of deceit? You only fool yourself when you can't cope with the heat! Myopia, myopia ... too blind to see the truth Myopia, myopia ... as history will prove Redopia, Blueopia ... the onus is on you? Myopia, myopia.... True colours shining through.... |

Follow me in to the ocean blue
Follow me if you want the truth I cannot, but I can talk to you I say nothing, but still you understand I hold my hand out to you Don't be afraid, I come in peace It may seem unusual to you Leave all your cynicism behind you Behind you, leave it behind you Swim with me in the ocean deep Be amazed by all the sights you'll see Don't you worry, you'll still be able to breathe It's another World down here, naturally ... I hold my hand out to you Don't be afraid, I come in peace It may seem unusual to you Leave all your cynicism behind you Behind you, leave it behind you I hold my hand out to you Don't be afraid, I come in peace It may seem unusual to you Leave all your cynicism behind you Leave it behind you Behind you Leave it behind you |

A burning nostalgia
Singes the damp early evening air As the coffin parades On to a rain sodden stage Set down by the bearers in solemn poise Anticipation mounts, all is still In this heavily charged atmosphere We're lost in nostalgia But look to the future One for the record One for the memory... In to the bowl of human celebration Steps our hero to ecstacy out front and they know it! Blinded by the footlights But he knows just where to face With a ready rapport, the performance begins The reunion is almost complete We're lost in nostalgia But look to the future One for the record One for the memory... Rael arise from your aerosol guise What a surprise! But no fox in a frock on the rocks (What no fox?) Then in comes the old man Dare I be so beautiful, just like a flower A flower! In the new Jerusalem On comes the seventh star The crowds are going crazy Seven years gone by It's enough to make you cry A feeling of deja vu ensues On the stage once more The band play on and on and on In their old shoes We're lost in nostalgia But look to the future One for the record One for the memory... We're lost in nostalgia But look to the future One for the record One for the memory... |

Gershwin's lost his melody
Louis has lost his brass Poor old Nat King Cole Has lost his backstage pass The band stand waiting for a cue Just to play for you again Jimi baby going crazy While Elvis is getting fat Freddie's nails are cracking snails Peter's make-up is running Through the gallery, the history Our music hall of fame, again And we're drowning in a river of past reflection Caught in the rapids, getting trapped between the rocks H2O - as clear as daylight Memories - as clear as daylight They come flooding back Flooding back to me, for free! There's little John with the squeaky voice Is he coming out to play? Oh! And there's thoughtful Roger You know, I never understood a word he had to say But the band stand waiting for the cue Just to play for you again, and again And we're drowning in a river of past reflection Caught in the rapids, getting trapped between the rocks H2O - as clear as daylight Memories - as clear as daylight They come flooding back Flooding back to me, always for free! SEE THE PARADE... Flooding back Flooding back Flooding back Flooding back Flooding back Flooding back to me Always for free Go! Ritchie B with his cold cup of tea I've seen those photos too Kathy's dreaming Is she still screaming I'm not sure that she can get through There's little Mick with his long, shiny stick He's going to blow you all away These were the heroes with charisma and style Where are the heroes for today? And we're drowning in a river of past reflection Caught in the rapids, getting trapped between the rocks H2O - as clear as daylight Memories - as clear as daylight They come flooding back Flooding back to me, always for free! And we're drowning in a river of past reflection Caught in the rapids, getting trapped between the rocks H2O - as clear as daylight Memories - as clear as daylight They come flooding back Flooding back to me, always for free! There's no one left to lead the parade |

Mistakes, mistakes ... I know you don't make 'em
Problems, problems ... I know you don't create 'em I know that you know you are never, ever wrong Always blaming somebody else Though we're not sure quite sure who But you and I know because you told me so that it's not you! Because you're ... perfection personified, never lost and never lied Perfection personified, a perfect example to everyone of how not to live your own life! So sad, so sad, you're not aware of your own failings Opinions, opinions ... you've got them by the truckload Even when you don't understand what you're saying But still you amble along in your own perfect bubble Leaving behind you a trail of rubble Whose going to catch you when you finally fall? Because you're ... perfection personified, never lost and never lied Perfection personified, a perfect example to everyone of how not to live your own life! Respectable, infallible, inculpable, unfathomable, not liable Thoroughly objectionable, sitting on a pedestal that's in danger of collapsing ... The epitome of smarm, so smug and self satisfied Safe in your cushy job, plenty of money Devoted family man and a wife who calls you 'honey' You're smiling and we're smiling and we're laughing at you You think you have it made but what you don't realise is that the joke is on you Because you're ... perfection personified, never lost and never lied Perfection personified, a perfect example to everyone of how not to live your own life! |
