camera
From
the inside room when the front room greeting
Becomes
your special book, it was simple then.
When
the party lulls, if we fall by the side.
Will
you be remembered? Will she be remembered?
Alone
in a crowd, a bartered lantern borrowed.
If
I'm to be your camera, then who will be your face?
I
fell by you bed once, I didn't want to tell you.
I
should keep myself in between the pages
Of
the green light room if we fall by the side.
Will
you be remembered? Will she be remembered?
Alone
in a crowd, a bartered lantern borrowed.
If
I'm to be your camera, then who will be your face?
From
the inside room when the front room greeting
Becomes
your special book, it was simple then.
When
the party lulls, if we fall by the side.
I
still like you, can you remember?
Alone
in a crowd, a bartered lantern borrowed.
If
I'm to be your camera, then who will be your face?
Alone
in a crowd, a bartered lantern borrowed.
If
I'm to be your camera, then who will be your face?

A Visit from St. Nicholas
'Twas the night before Christmas, when all thro' the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there;
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar plums danc'd in their heads, ...
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there;
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar plums danc'd in their heads, ...

Been There Done That
I was
dreaming
It's a
hundred and ninety degrees
We
were crawling around on our knees
Till
the sun came up at quarter to three
But
the time we had
Dirty
clothes and dirt on our walls
Swinging
on the bathroom doors
Thinking
we were having a ball
Until
somebody said they'd
Been
there, done that
Been
there, don't wanna go back
Been
there, done that
Been
there, don't wanna go back
Yesterday
I called you on the telephone
To
tell you I was feeling alone
Where
you been for the last few days?
I want
you back
Put my
feet back on the ground
I
don't need the lost and found
I need
somebody to tell me when I've
Been
there, done that
Been
there, don't wanna go back
Been
there, done that
Been
there, don't wanna go back
A
broken heart
Won't
get you much further than a cold heart
We're
getting, getting better, we're running back
Running
back, back to you and I'm feeling that
You're
the money or the good times
When
I've been there...

Graceland
... And she said losing love
Is like a window in your heart
Everybody sees you're blown apart
Everybody sees the wind blow ...
Is like a window in your heart
Everybody sees you're blown apart
Everybody sees the wind blow ...

Synchronicity II
Another suburban family morning
Grandmother screaming at the wall
We have to shout above the din of our Rice Crispies
We can't hear anything at all
Mother chants her litany of boredom and frustration
But we know all her suicides are fake
Daddy only stares into the distance
There's only so.much heartache he can take
Many miles away
Something crawls from the slime
At the bottom of a dark Scottish lake
Another industrial ugly morning
The factory belches filth into the sky
He walks unhindered through the picket lines today
He doesn't think to wonder why
The secretaries pout and preen like
cheap tarts in a red light street
But all he ever thinks to do is watch
And every single meeting with his so-called superior
Is a humiliating kick in the crotch
Many miles away
Something crawls to the surface
Of a dark Scottish loch
Another working day has ended
Only the rush hour hell to face
Packed like lemmings into shiny metal boxes
Contestants in a suicidal race
Daddy grips the wheel and stares alone into the distance
He knows that something somewhere has to break
He sees the family home now looming in his headlights
The pain upstairs that makes his eyeballs ache
Many miles away
There's a shadow on the door
Of a cottage on the shore
Of a dark Scottish lake
Many miles away, many miles away

Quicksand
I'm
closer to the Golden Dawn
Immersed
in Crowley's uniform
Of
imagery
I'm
living in a silent film
Portraying
Himmler's
sacred realm
Of
dream reality
I'm
frightened by the total goal
Drawing
to the ragged hole
And I
ain't got the power anymore
No I
ain't got the power anymore
I'm
the twisted name
on
Garbo's eyes
Living
proof of
Churchill's
lies
I'm
destiny
I'm
torn between the light and dark
Where
others see their targets
Divine
symmetry
Should
I kiss the viper's fang
Or
herald loud
the
death of Man
I'm
sinking in the quicksand
of my
thought
And I
ain't got the power anymore
Don't
believe in yourself
Don't
deceive with belief
Knowledge
comes
with
death's release
I'm
not a prophet
or a
stone age man
Just a
mortal
with
the potential of a superman
I'm
living on
I'm
tethered to the logic
of
Homo Sapien
Can't
take my eyes
from
the great salvation
Of
bullshit faith
If I
don't explain what you ought to know
You
can tell me all about it
On,
the next Bardo
I'm
sinking in the quicksand
of my
thought
And I
ain't got the power anymore

Commando
Fanno del loro meglio, fanno quello che possono
Li tengono preparati per il Vietnam
Dalla vecchia Hanoi fino a Berlino Est
Commando - nuovamente all'opera
Fanno del loro meglio, fanno quello che possono
Li tengono preparati per il Vietnam
La prima regola è rispettare le leggi della Germania
La seconda regola è trattare bene la mamma
Le terza regola è non parlare ai comunisti
La quarta regola è mangiare sempre salami Kosher
Li tengono preparati per il Vietnam
Dalla vecchia Hanoi fino a Berlino Est
Commando - nuovamente all'opera
Fanno del loro meglio, fanno quello che possono
Li tengono preparati per il Vietnam
La prima regola è rispettare le leggi della Germania
La seconda regola è trattare bene la mamma
Le terza regola è non parlare ai comunisti
La quarta regola è mangiare sempre salami Kosher
