Hello, I Love You
|
Hello, I love you, won't you tell me your name?
Hello, I love you, let me jump in your game
Hello, I love you, won't you tell me your name?
Hello, I love you, let me jump in your game
She's walkin' down the street
Blind to ev'ry eye she meets,
Do you think you'll be the guy
To make the queen of the angel's sigh?
She holds her head so high
Like a statue in the sky
Her arms are wicked and her legs are long
When she moves, my brain screams out this song
Sidewalk crouches at her feet
Like a dog that begs for something sweet
Do you hope to make her see,you fool?
Do you hope to pluck this dusky jewel?
Hello. Hello. Hello. Hello |

Love Street
|
She lives on Love Street,
Lingers long on Love Street,
She has a house and garden,
I would like to see what happens
She has robes and she has monkeys,
Lazy diamond-studed flunkies,
She has wisdom and knows what to do,
She has me and she has you
I see you live on Love Street;
There's the store where the creatures meet
I wonder what they do in there,
Summer Sunday and a year
I guess I like it fine so far
She lives on Love Street,
Lingers long on Love Street
She has a house and garden
I would like to see what happens... |

Not to Touch the Earth
|
Not to touch the earth, not to see the sun,
Nothing left to do but run, run, run, let's run
Let's run
House upon the hill, moon is lying still,
Shadows of the trees, witnessing the wild breeze
Come on, baby, run with me, let's run
Run with me, run with me, run with me, let's run
The mansion is warm at the top of the hill,
Rich are the rooms and the comforts there
Red are the arms of luxuriant chairs,
And you don't know a thing till you get inside
Dead President's corpse in the driver's car,
The engine runs on glue and tar,
Come on along, not goin' very far,
To the East to meet the Czar
Run with me, run with me, run with me. Let's run
Some outlaws live by the side of a lake,
The minister's daughter's in love with the snake,
Who lives in a well by the side of the road
Wake up, girl, we're almost home!
Sun, sun, sun
Burn, burn, burn
Moon, moon, moon,
I will get you
Soon!
Soon!
Soon!
I am the Lizard King
I can do anything. |

Summer's Almost Gone
|
Summer's almost gone,
Summer's almost gone,
Almost gone, yeh, it's almost gone
Where will we be when the summer's gone?
Morning found us calmly unaware,
Noon burned gold into our hair,
At night we swam the laughing sea
When summer's gone, where will we be?
Summer's almost gone,
Summer's almost gone
We had some good times but they're gone
The winter's coming on, summer's almost gone |
5.
Wintertime Love
|
Wintertime winds blow cold this season,
Falling in love I'm hopin' to be
Wind is so cold, is that the reason
Keeping you warm, your hands touching me
Come with me, dance, my dear,
Winter's so cold this year
You are so warm, my Wintertime Love to be
Wintertime winds blue and freezin'
Comin' from northern storms in the sea
Love has been lost, is that the reason
Trying so desperately to be free |
6.
The Unknown Soldier
|
Wait until the war is over
And we're both a little older
The unknown soldier
Practice where the news is read
Television children had
Unborn, living, dead,
Bullet strikes the helmet's head
And it's all over for the unknown soldier,
It's all over for the unknown soldier
"Company halt! Presents arms!"
Make a grave for the unknown soldier
Nestled in your hollow shoulder
The unknown soldier
Practise where the news is read
Television children had
Bullet strikes the helmet's head
It's all over, the war is over... |
7.
Spanish Caravan
|
Carry me, caravan, take me away,
Take me to Portugal, take me to Spain,
Andalusia, with fields full of grain,
I have to see you again and again
Take me, Spanish Caravan,
Yes, I know you can
Aid, winds, my galley's lost in the sea
and I know a treasure is waiting for me.
Silver and gold in the mountains of Spain
I have to see you again and again.
Take me, Spanish Caravan,
Yes, I know you can |
8.
My Wild Love
|
My wild love went riding,
She rode all the day;
She rode to the devil,
And asked him to pay
The devil was wiser
It's time to repent;
He asked her to give back
The money she spent
My wild love went riding,
She rode to sea;
She gathered together
Some shells for her hair
She rode on to Christmas,
She rode to the farm;
She rode to Japan
And re-entered a town
My wild love is crazy
She screams like a bird;
She moans like a cat
When she wants to be heard
She rode and she rode on
She rode for a while,
Then stopped for an evening
And laid her head down
By this time the weather
Had changed one degree,
She asked for the people
To let her go free
My wild love went riding,
She rode for an hour;
She rode and she rested,
And then she rode on |

We Could Be So Good Together
|
We could be so good together,
Yeh, so good together,
We could be so good together,
Yeh, we could, I know we could
Tell you lies, I'll tell you wicked lies,
Tell you lies, tell you wicked lies
I tell you 'bout the world that we'll invent,
Wanton world without lament,
Enterprise, expedition,
Invitation and invention
Yeh, so good together,
Ah, so good together,
We could be so good together,
Yeh, we could, know we could
We could be so good together,
Yeh, so good together,
We could be so good together,
Yeh, we could, know we could
Tell you lies, tell you wicked lies,
Tell you lies, tell you wicked lies
The time you wait substracts from joy,
Beheads the angels you destroy;
Angels fight, angels cry;
Angels dance and angels die |
10.
Yes, the River Knows
|
Please believe me
The river told me
Very softly
Want you to hold me
Free fall flow river,
Flow on and on it goes,
Breathe under water till the end
Free fall flow river,
Flow on and on it goes,
Breathe under water till the end
Yes the river knows
Please believe me,
If you don't need me
I'm going but I need a little time,
I promised I would drown myself in mystic heated wine
Please believe me
The river told me
Very softly
Want you to hold me
I'm going but I need a little time,
I promised I would drown myself in mystic heated wine |
11.
Five to One
|
Five to one, baby, one in five,
No one here gets out alive,
Now you get yours, baby, I'll get mine,
Gonna make it, baby, it we try
The old get old and the young get stronger,
May take a week and it may take longer,
They got the duns but we got the numbers
Gonna win, yeh, we're takin' over, come on
Your ballroom days are over, baby,
Night is drawing near,
Shadows of the evening grow across the year
You walk across the floor with a flower in your hand,
Trying to tell me no one understands,
Trading your house for a handful of dimes
Gonna make it, baby, in our prime
Get together one more time
Get together one more time |
