Dream On

THE DISTANCE WE MEET IS ALWAYS THERE
SO DON’T SHOW ME ALL OF YOUR DREAMS
FOLLOW ME FOLLOW ME ON THESE STAIRS
BUT DON’T RULE ME OUT OF YOUR SCHEMES
DREAM ON BABY DREAM
HALWAY IN IS HALFWAY OUT
CATCH EACH OTHER AS WE FALL
WHAT DO BABIES DREAM ABOUT
IF NOTHING, THEN WHY DREAM AT ALL
WOKE UP THIS MORNING
THIS SONG ARRIVED
BUT WHATEVER HAPPENED TO HER
LONG AGO SHE WAS ON MY MIND
NOW EVERYTHING’S IN THE AIR

Blue Is A Flame

BLUE IS A FLAME
CANNABIS, COFFEE, HIGH OCTANE FUEL
THINGS THAT BRING ME HOME TO YOU
ALL THROUGH OUR LIVES WE HAVE TO CHOOSE
BETWEEN THE DEVIL AND THESE DEEP BLUES
LIGHTEN UP LISTEN UP SHOW YOUR HAND
THIS ACT IS HARD TO FOLLOW
KATY SAID “CAN YOU DO THE STRAND”
AND DANCE INTO TOMORROW
SUSIE WANTS A CUP OF TEA
BETTER GET IT FOR HER GET IT FOR HER GET IT FOR HER
BECAUSE SHE MEANS SO MUCH TO ME
SUSIE GETS A GREEN TEA
I DON’T WANT TO HIDE AWAY
I DON’T WANT TO PLAY THOSE GAMES
DANCE ‘TILL YOU’RE HIGH
DREAM UNTO THE SKY

A Parody Of Femininity
04:15
|

|
THIS IS THE LOVE
THIS IS THE SKY
THIS IS THE LOVE OCEAN
THAT PASSES US BY
I DON’T WANT TO SAVE THE WORLD
I JUST WANT TO SAVE THIS GIRL
IS SHE OLDER THAN THE SUN
IS SHE YOUNGER THAN THE MOON
NO
IF WE FLY AWAY TONIGHT
WOULD OUR HEAVY WINGS BE LIGHT
ARE YOU HERE TO SHOW THE WAY
WITH YOU I’M NOT AFRAID

My Rendez-Vous
03:45

|
MY RENDEZ-VOUS FANTASTIC
MY RENDEZ-VOUS ELASTIC
MY RENDEZ-VOUS IT’S PLASTIC
OH
IT’S OFFENSIVE TO MY SENSES
THAT YOU KNOW THAT YOU KNOW
I DETEST IT IN THE PLACES
WE DON’T GO WE DON’T GO
I CAN OPEN THESE EQUATIONS
TO AND FRO TO AND FRO
TAKE YOUR PENCILS AND YOUR PAPERS
DON’T LET GO DON’T LET GO

The Light Shines
04:29
|
|||
|
I DON’T MIND IF YOU STAY
I DON’T MIND IF YOU LEAVE
I DON’T MIND IF YOU PRAY
I DON’T MIND IF YOU BELIEVE
OOH BABY I KNOW
THIS DAY PASSES SO SLOW
BUT I FEEL YOU SHOULD GO
AWAY
THROW YOUR FAITH TO THE WIND
ONLY THEN CAN OUR JOURNEY BEGIN
IT’S A LONG LONG WAY TO FIND
YOURSELF AND WHAT YOU’VE LEFT BEHIND

Frida and Diego
04:18
|
|||
|
YOU KNEW IT YOU BLEW IT
YOU’RE GONNA STAY WITH HER
I DON’T KNOW WHY
YOU’RE GONNA STAY WITH HER
FRIDA AND DIEGO LIVED IN A BLUE HOUSE
TOGETHER FORMED A RAINBOW
COME RAIN OR SHINE THEY DANCED
TO THE MOON
THEN ONE BRIGHT BUT WINDY DAY THE STRANGER CAME TO CALL
AND CAUSED THEM TO BETRAY
THEIR FEELINGS FOR A FALL
FROM ON HIGH
FRIDA AND DIEGO NOW LEAD THEIR SEPARATE LIVES
BUT HONOUR-BOUND FOREVER
BRIGHT COLOURS LEAD THEM BOTH
TO THE SUN

Waiting for A Sign
02:18
|
|||
|
IT’S GUILT THAT GETS ME OUT OF
BED AS DAY IS DAWNING
SH’E BEEN AWAKE FOR HOURS
TO WORK THIS SUNDAY MORNING
STILL I’M WAITING FOR A SIGN
TO SHINE
WE SOMETIMES LIVE IN UNTRUTH
BUT ALSO CAN BE HONEST
PEOPLE WHO DEPEND ON
EACH OTHER FOR OUR PROMISE
MY LOVE FOR YOU IS STRONG
STRONGER THAN AN OCEAN
WHAT ARE WE TO DO WHEN
OUR LOVE BECOMES A WAVE

PLANTACINE BOYD
HE CAN’T KEEP OTHER PEOPLES VISIONS
CONSTANTLY ANNOYED
AT THE LACK OF TIME AND CONSIDERATION
LIVES IN A HAZE
OF TERRIFYING CONSEQUENCES
YET REMAINS UNAFRAID
OF LIFE AND LOVE AND CIRCUMSTANCES
OH YOU’LL SEE IN THE END
THAT LIFE ISN’T FAIR MY FRIEND
DON’T BE AFRAID OF THE NIGHT
YOU’LL CARRY THIS BURDEN IN FLIGHT
PLANTACINE BOYD
CANNOT HANG AROUND WITH STRANGERS
LIVES FOR THE VOID
AND MOLOTOV COCKTAIL DANGER
IN CANDLESTICK DARK
SOUNDS LIKE A PROBLEM IN PARAMARIBO
ENCOUNTERS A SHARK
EVERY DAY IT’S THE SAME OLD GRIEVANCE
FOREVER IN YOUR DREAMS

One More Dance
02:20
|

|
WHAT IF I DON’T REALLY LOVE YOU
WHAT IF I DON’T REALLY CARE
WHAT HAVE I BEEN KEEPING SECRET
WHAT HAVE I LAID BARE
WHAT IF I DON’T WANT TO LEAVE YOU
WHAT IF I CAN’T SAY GOODBYE
WHAT IF THERE’S NO OTHER REASON
WAS IT ALL A LIE
WE CAN MEET ALL OUR FRIENDS
IF WE TRY ONCE AGAIN
AND WE’LL SEE IN OUR LIVES
WE CAN DANCE ONE MORE TIME
TO THE END
WHAT IF YOU CAN’T MAKE ME HAPPY
WHAT IF I CAN’T ALWAYS TRY
WHAT IS IT MAKES YOU SO SPECIAL
WILL THIS MAKE YOU CRY
WHAT IS IT THAT MAKES ME TREMBLE
WHAT IS IT THAT TOUCHES YOU
WAS THIS ALL COMPLETELY WASTED
TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE
