Parasol
|
|
when I come to terms to terms with this when I come to terms with this when I come to terms to terms with this my world will change for me I haven't moved since the call came since the call came I haven't moved I stare at the wall knowing on the other side the storm that waits for me the Seated Woman with the Parasol may be the only one you can\'t Betray if I'm the Seated Woman with the Parasol I will be safe in my frame I have no need for a sea view for a sea view I have no need I have my little pleasures this wall being one of these and the Seated Woman with the Parasol may be the only one you can't Betray if I'm the Seated Woman with the Parasol I will be safe in my frame when I come to terms to terms with this when I come to terms with this when I come to terms with this whip lash of Silk on wool embroidery and the Seated Woman with the Parasol may be the only one you can't betray if I'm the Seated Woman with the Parasol I will be safe in my frame and the Seated Woman with the Parasol may be the only one you can't betray if I'm the Seated Woman with the Parasol I will be safe in my frame I will be safe in my frame in your House in your frame |

Sweet the Sting
|
|
with a strut into the room with his hat cocked sure defiantly he said "I. I have heard. that you can play the way I like it to be played." I said, I can play. anyway that you want. But first I want. I want to know Baby is it Sweet Sweet Sweet the Sting is it real this infusion- can it heal where others before have failed? If so then somebody Shake Shake Shake me sane 'cause I am inching ever closer to the tip of this scorpion's tail. He said "I laid my weapons down with my pistol fully loaded, a hunted man to my root, will it end or begin in your cinnabar juice?" is it Sweet Sweet Sweet your Sting is it real your infusion can it heal where others before have failed? If so then somebody Shake Shake Shake me sane 'cause I am inching ever closer to the tip of this scorpion's tail. Love let me breathe breathe you in melt the confusion until there is there is you - union Baby is it Sweet Sweet Sweet your sting is it real your infusion can it heal where others before have failed? If so then somebody Shake Shake Shake me sane 'cause I am inching ever closer to the tip of this scorpion's tail. Baby is it sweet, now now Baby is it sweet, boy Baby is it sweet |

The Power of Orange Knickers
|
|
The power of orange knickers The power of orange knickers The power of orange knickers under my petty coat. the power of listening to what, you don't want me to know. Can somebody tell me now who is this terrorist those girls that smile kindly then rip your life to pieces. Can somebody tell me now am I alone with this this little pill in my hand and with this secret kiss am I alone in this A matter of complication when you become a twist for their latest drink as they're transitioning Can somebody tell me now who is this terrorist this little pill in my hand that keeps the pain living Can somebody tell me now a way out of this that sacred pipe of red stone could blow me out of this kiss am I alone in this The power of orange knickers under my petty coat. the power of listening to what, you don't want me to know. Shame shame time to leave me now Shame shame you've had your fun shame shame for letting me think that I would be the one Can somebody tell me now who is this terrorist this little pill in my hand or this secret kiss, kiss am I alone in this kiss, kiss am I alone in this kiss, kiss |

Jamaica Inn
|
|
Can you patch my jeans Peggy Ann? just a little stitch to mend the hole he has torn if you can maybe I got too set in my ways he says she reminds him of me when we first met in those early days the sexiest thing is trust I wake up to find the pirates have come, tying up along your coast. how was I to know the pirates have come? Between Rebecca's beneath your firmaments I have worshipped in the Jamaica Inn. in the Jamaica Inn. With the gales my little boat was tossed. how was I to know that you'd send her with a lantern to bring me in? "Are you positive this is a friend?" the captain grimaced. "Those are cliffs of rock ahead if I'm not mistaken." the sexiest thing is trust I wake up to find the pirates have come, tying up along your coast. how was I to know the pirates have come? Between Rebecca's beneath your firmaments I have worshipped in the Jamaica Inn. in the Jamaica Inn. |

Barons of Suburbia
|
|
Barons of suburbia take another piece of my good graces I'm in my war you're in yours do we fight for peace as they take another piece of us but baby I would let your darkness invade me. You could maybe turn this white light into navy before you leave It was a slight miscalculation that my frends my friends would be waiting on the other side of the bridge on the other side of this this mole hill of a mountain this potion of a poison they're on the other side of right we're on the other side of her midnight When it's all said and done we will lose a piece to a carnivorous vegetarian Barons of suburbia I have heard you pray before you devour her So baby will you let my darkness invade you You always liked the wafer sweet in the middle before you leave It was a slight miscalculation that our friends our friends would be waiting on the other side of the bridge on the other side of this this mole hill of a mountain this potion now a poison they're on the other side of right we're on the other side of her midnight I'm piecing a potion to combat your poison She is Risen She is Risen Boys I said She is Risen |

General Joy I know I know you'll take me there where your boys were left behind General Joy it seems you need a soldier girl now 'they' have Liberty gagged by boat by tram by motorbus could it be the fates are protecting us from the Hawks that have stolen the bird from the sky and I know you will always love Sorrow is that why you gave her dress to Happiness? 'cause it matches her eyes when she cries General Joy it seems you don't love your Bride generally you're friends but she is not the love of your life to dye to perm to change your hair or your wife the possibilities are there and it's time for you to decide and I know you will always love Sorrow is that why you gave her dress to Happiness? 'cause it matches her eyes when she cries General Joy I know I know you'll take me there but you'll need strength from within General Joy it seems you need a soldier girl and a willing coalition by boat by tram by motorbus could it be the Hawks are protecting us from the Men who have now assumed their name and I know you will always love Sorrow is that why you gave her dress to Happiness? 'cause it matches her eyes when she cries 'cause it matches her eyes when she cries |

Mother Revolution
|
|
Lucky me I guessed the kind of man that you would turn out to be Now I wish that I'd been wrong and then I could remember to breathe And all along the Watchtower the night horses and the black mares ready themselves for the outcome for the strange times upon us But what you didn't count on was another Mother of a Mother Revolution but what you didn't count on was another Mother of a Mother Revolution you could've had me you could've had me you could've had me Right there beside you you could've had me, boy you could've had me, yeah you could've had me Right there beside you A wife on loan in a cafe in old El Paso Next I go to Seven Gates and my sister's Bass Bonanza And all along her Watchtower the night horses and the black mares steady themselves for the outcome for the strange days upon us What you didn't count on was another Mother of a Mother Revolution but what you didn't count on was another Mother of a Mother Revolution you could've had me you could've had me you could've had me Right there beside you you could've had me, boy you could've had me, yeah you could've had me Right there beside you What you didn't count on was another Mother of a Mother Revolution |

Ribbons Undone
|
|
She's a girl rising from a shell running to Spring It is her time it is her time Watch her run with Ribbons undone she's a rose in a Lily's cloak she can hide her charms Is it her right there will be time to chase the sun with Ribbons undone she runs like a fire does just picking up daises Comes in for a landing a pure flash of lightening Past alice blue blossoms you follow her laughter And then she'll surprise you arms filled with lavender Yes, my little pony is growing up fast she corrects me and says "you mean a thoroughbred" A look in her eye says the Battle's beginning From school she comes home and cries I don't want to grow up Mom at least not tonight you're a girl Rising from a shell Running through Spring with Summer's hand in reach now It is your time It is your time so just run with Ribbons undone It is your time yes my angel It is your time so just run with Ribbons undone run run darling Ribbons undone |

Ireland

|
Driving in my Saab on my way to Ireland It's been a long time It's been a long time Driving with my friends on my way to Ireland it's been a long time it's been a long time So when I was out in the desert And a cowboy tried to lasso me He said you're red and made of clay a virgin portrait I let him wake me but decided not to stay Driving in my Saab on my way to Ireland It's been a long time It's been a long time Driving with my friends on my way to Ireland it's been a long time it's been a long time Next in New York I fell out with a dragon Of the white collar kind but just as ferocious I remembered Macha running faster than the horses Then an encounter with a voice that caressed me Driving in my Saab on my way to Ireland It's been a long time a long time Driving with my friends on my way to Ireland it's been a long time it's been a long time Wasn't it you who held off a surrender To one spoiled nun who taught you the names of the mountains on the moon and then a Jesuit proceeded to arrange your soul while I prayed on my knees Driving in my Saab on my way to Ireland It's been a long time a long time Driving with my friends, yes on my way to Ireland it's been a long time a long time such a long, long time it's been a long time a long time |

Flaxen hair blowing in the breeze It is time for the geese to head south I have come with my mustard seed I cannot accept that she will be taken from me "Do you know who I am" she said "I'm the one who taps you on the shoulder when it's your time Don't be afraid I promise that she will awake Tomorrow Somewhere Tomorrow Somewhere" Wrap yourself around the Tree of Life and the Dance of the Infinity of the Hive take this message to Michael I will comb myself into chains In between the tap dance clan and your ballerina gang I have come for the Beekeeper I know you want my You want my Queen Anything but this Can you use me instead? "Do you know who I am" she said "I'm the one who taps you on the shoulder when it's your time Do not be afraid I promise that she will awake Tomorrow Somewhere Tomorrow Somewhere" In your gown with your breathing mask on Plugged into a heart machine As if you ever needed one I must see the Beekeeper I must see if she'll keep her alive Call Engine 49 I have come with my mustard seed "Do you know who I am" she said "I'm the one who taps you on the shoulder when it's your time Do not be afraid I promise that she will awake Tomorrow Somewhere Tomorrow Somewhere" Maybe I'm passing you by Just passing you by, girl I'm just passing you by On my way, On my way i'm just passing you by But don't be confused One day I'll be coming for you I must see the Beekeeper |

Martha's Foolish Ginger
|
|
Take a walk down memory lane with me Past a watermelon stand on the way Thinking I had everything we'd need on Martha's Foolish Ginger You were late How could I forget what you said the part about that "Love taking over your life" was not your plan If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland who knows what I would have done If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland who knows what I would have done Through the cliffs out of the Bay I went From the starboard side I could black my visions and my passions They keep me awake If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland who knows what I would have done If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland who knows what I would have done A familiar voice "Hi. Surprise. I've been searching trying to find you" I couldn't speak my hands reached for Martha's Foolish Ginger We talked until the moon came up About how life without love isn't worth very much Then I played this song If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland who knows what I would have done If those harbour lights had just been a half a mile inland who knows what I would have done what I would have done what I would have done "Memories that we have yet" you said "To make like our Burning Bed..." Love, don't mistake that it wasn't safe from Martha's Foolish Ginger. |

I don't I don't know why In your Boys life you become like a bull like a bull in a china shop Smash it up into smithereens There you There you go again Breaking Breaking porcelain Is that all I am just a Doll you got used to We've done We've done this before as Mars sauntered through his door Don't say it's time to say Goodbye to Pisces Goodbye to Pisces I cried and I washed my tears that turned into diamond Ice into ice and if it could freeze My heart wouldn't float away There we There we go again Breaking Breaking porcelain Is that all I am just a Doll you got used to We've done We've done this before as Mars sauntered through his door Don't say it's time to say Goodbye to Pisces Goodbye to Pisces So how how will I go Back on Back on the shelf with a smile with a smile to the customer and say on sale by the owner Here I Here I go again Breaking Breaking porcelain Is that all I am just a Doll you got used to We've done We've done this before as Mars sauntered through his door Don't say it's time to say Goodbye to Pisces Goodbye to Pisces Goodbye my Pisces |

Les Saint Marie de la Mer you will dance the ring Marys of the Sea the lost bride weeps Les Saint Marie de la Mer We will dance your ring Hey there's a new Jerusalem Hey you built a rock that's on sand For now you have hijacked the Son Last time I checked he came to light the lamp for everyone "relax Love" he said before he left "take those hands away from your eyes from where I stand you're in my sky I hear a voice and it says "the red of the red rose is its own and something no man can divide" so St. Jermaine hear the prayer of this supplicant for two Scarlet women, Black Madonna Les Saint Marie de la Mer you will dance the ring Marys of the Sea the lost bride weeps Les Saint Marie de la Mer We will dance your ring Hey I am not in your way Hey no need to push me again I know it's your day in the sun I know it's your day in the sun Hey I am not in your way Hey no need to push me again Oh, I know it's your day in the sun Last time I checked he came to light the lamp for everyone |

Toast
|
|
I thought it was Easter time the way the light rose rose that morning Lately you've been on my mind You showed me the rope ropes to climb over mountains and to pull myself out of a landslide of a landslide I thought it was harvest time You always loved the smell of wood burning She with her honey hair Dalhousie Castle she would meet you there In the winter Butter yellow The flames you stirred Yes, you could stir I raise a glass Make a toast A toast in your honor I hear your laugh and beg me not to dance on your right standing by is Mr. Bojangles With a toast he's telling me it's time to raise a glass Make a toast A toast in your honor I hear you laugh and beg me not to dance 'cause on your right standing by is Mr.Bojangles with a toast he's telling me it's time To let you go Let you go I thought I'd see you again. You say you might do Maybe in a carving in a cathedral Somewhere in Barcelona. |
