It's a happy day
For the water bugs have melt away
Not a bird is sitting in its tree
Not a he, she, it or me
It's a happy day
Letter gate has sprung away
Taking all the floods to sea
Leaving uncle sam and he
He was an air force man
Flyin' in all the news
She was his only queen
Nothing really left to lose
Yes, he was an air force man
Flyin' in all the news
She was his only queen
Nothing really left to lose

It's a happy day
For the world has come to stay
Not a creature sleeps today
The world will not go away

It's a happy day
Let us dream and sleep tonight
Of the world in its plight
'cause i need top top find
Yes, he was an air force man
Flyin' in all the news
She was his only queen
Nothin' really left to lose
She was his only girl
She called him pop crackle
He was her only pearl
Flying out of tanger sound

It's a happy day
We are here to gather to stay
Not a person will keep us away
Our life is the greatest today

It's a happy day
This could go on all night
Let us bed by bright moonlight,
And have a good, good, good night

This old man
He played one
He played knick knack on my thumb
With a knick knack paddywhack
Give your dog a bone
This old man came rolling home

This old man
He played two
He played knick knack on my shoe
With a knick knack paddywhack
Give your dog a bone

This old man
He played three
He played knick knack on my knee
With a knick knack, paddywhack
This old man

This old man
He played four
He played knick knack on my door
With a knick knack paddywhack
Give your dog a bone
This old man came rolling home

This old man
He played ten
He played knick knack on my shin
On my shin

If you don't
Treat me better
Baby i'11 just run away
Baby i don't
Know what drives you
To play these
Silly games
C'mon baby
I'm much stronger
Than you know
Sometimes
I'm not afraid
To let it show


Chorus:
When will you wake up
I want you
More than the stars
And the sun
But i can take
Only so much
Cool on your island
Is it cool on your island
I gotta
Brand new dress babe
Could it
Make you wanna try
I guess
I didn't want
To notice
The stars gone
From your eyes
C'mon baby
I'm much
Stronger than you know
Sometimes
I'm not afraid
To let it show


Repeat chorus


We could buy
An airplane
Build a home
In the sand
You could tell
Your secrets
I could understand
But then by the morning
Comes crumblin' down
And as your leavin'
Wait


Chorus:
When will you wake up
I want you
More than the stars
And the sun
But i can take
Only so much
Cool on your island
You're so cool on your island
Is it cool on your island
Is it cool baby


If you don't
Treat me better
Baby i'11 just
Run away
If you don't
Tredt me
One day
You'll wake up cold
Then you'll know
You'll know
You'll know
You'll love me

Go to bed, the priests are dead
Now no one can call you back
Go to bed, the priests are dead
Finally, you're pepper minted land

He's a merman
He doesn't need your voice
He's a merman

Go to bed, dream instead
And you will find him
He's a merman eternally
He doesn't need something you're not willing to give
He's a merman
Doesn't need your voice to cross his land
For lies

Go to bed, the priests are dead
Now no one can call you back
Go to bed, the priests are dead
Finally you found it and lalala
Who could ever say you're not simply wonderful?
Who could ever harm you
Go to sleep now
You're my little girl
Go to bed, the priests are dead
And go and sing it all again
Go to bed, past the apple orchard and you'll feel nice
Two can play, i said two can play

Southern trees bear strange fruit
Blood on the leaves
Blood at the root
Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze
Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees
Pastoral scene of the gallant south
The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth
The scent of magnolia sweet and fresh
Then the sudden smell of burning flesh
Here is a fruit for the crows to pluck
For the rain to gather
For the wind to suck
For the sun to rot
For the tree to drop
Here is a strange and bitter crop

Ev'rybody wants something from you
Ev'rybody wants a piece of mary
Lush valley all dressed in green,
Just ripe for the picking

God, i want to get you out of here,
You can ride in a pink mustang
When i think of what we've done to you,
Oh, mary, can you hear me?

Growing up isn't always fun,
They tore your dress and stole your ribbons
They see you cry, they lick their lips,
But butterflies don't belong in nets

Oh, mary, can you hear me?
Mary, you're bleeding. mary, don't be afraid
We're just waking up and i hear help is on the way
Mary, can you hear me?
Mary, like jimmy said. mary, don't be afraid
'cause even the wind, even the wind cries your name

Ev'rybody wants you sweetheart
Ev'rybody got a dream of glory
Las vegas got a pinup girl
They got her armed as they buy and sell her
Rivers of milk running dry,
Can't you hear the dolphins crying?
What'll we do when our babies scream,
Fill their mouths with some acid rain?

Oh, mary, can you hear me?
Mary, you're bleeding. mary, don't be afraid
We're just waking up and i hear help is on the way
Mary, can you hear me?
Mary, like jimmy said. mary, don't be afraid
'cause even the wind, even the wind cries your name

Oh, butterflies don't belong in nets

Beulah land
Got a wasted gun
Liquorice man
Some you are
Sometimes
Got something in that saying
Beulah girl
You better hitch me up

Got some candy
And sweet saying
Give me religion
And a lobotomy
Beulah land
Beautiful home
Tell me when
I don't need you anymore

Said that somewhere
You're gonna get something
They're so
You're right in the middle
And then i'm you
Something is coming back again
I said
You
Maybe i don't wanna go
To where you're not
So

Beulah land
Find me one
Place to be
Is by your...
Gotta rubber ball
And a crocodile
Gonna float
And past your home

And say when, just
Say when, just
Say when

Rubies and gold
Star of my moonlight
Warmer then roses in spring
The kingdoms were sold
To hold their beauty, well
I'd sell my life anyway
Just to say i held their heart in my arms
There's strength in my soul

Rubies and gold
Are you to me
You're a jewel upon my chest
Warming my heart with your kisses,
A peaceful way to rest
Fulfilling my life long wishes

And silently you're watching me
Stroking my cheek with your hand
Your eyes are deep yet filled with tears
I've never seen so much love in a man

Rubies and gold
Star of my moonlight
Warmer than roses in spring
The kingdoms were sold
To hold their beauty, well
I'd sell my life anyway
Just to say i held their heart in my arms
There's strength in my soul

Rubies and gold
You are to me

i’m not in love, so don’t forget it
It’s just a silly phase i’m going through
And just because i call you up,
Don’t get me wrong, don’t think you’ve got it made
I’m not in love, no no, it’s because...
I like to see you, but then again,
That doesn’t mean you mean that much to me
So if i call you, don’t make a fuzz
Don’t tell your friends about the two of us
I’m not in love, no no, it’s because...
I keep your picture upon the wall
It hides a nasty stain still lying there
It hides a nasty stain still lying there
I keep your picture upon the wall
It hides a nasty stain still lying there
It hides a nasty stain still lying there
So don’t you ask me to give it back
I know you know it doesn’t mean that much to me
I’m not in love, no no, it’s because...
Ooh, you’ll wait a long time for me
Ooh, you’ll wait a long time
Ooh, you’ll wait a long time for me
Ooh, you’ll wait a long time
I’m not in love, it's just a silly phase i'm goin through
And just because i call you up,
Don’t get me wrong, don’t think you’ve got it made
I’m not in love
I’m not in love

Sarah sylvia cynthia stout
Would not take the garbage out
She'd scour the pots and scrap the pans
Candy the yams and spice the hams
And though her daddy would scream and shout
She simply would not take the garbage out
And so it pulled up to the ceilings
Coffee grounds, potato peelings
Brown bananas, rottens peas
Chunks of sour cottage cheese
It filled the can it covered the floor
It cracked the window and blocked the door
With bacon rinds and chicken bones
Drippy ends of ice cream cones
Prunes pits, peach pits, orange peel
Gloppy glumps of cold oatmeal
Pizza crusts and withered greens
Soggy beans and tangerines
Crusts of black burned butter toast
Grisly bits of beefy roast
The garbage rolled on down the hall
It raised the roof, it broke the wall
Greasy napkins, cookie crumbs
Glops of gooey bubble gum
Cellophane from green bologna
Rubbery blubbery macaroni
Peanut butter caked and dry
Curdled milk and crusts of pie
Moldy melons, dried up mustard
Egg shells mixed with lemon custard
Cold french fries and rancid meat
Yellow lumps of cream-of-wheat
At last the garbage reached so high
That finally it touched the sky
All the neighbors moved away
And none of her friends would come to play
And finally sarah sylvia cynthia stout
Said "okay, i'll take the garbage out"
But then of course it was too late
The garbage reached across the state
From new york to the golden gate
And there in the garbage she did hate
Poor sarah met an awful fate
That i cannot right now relate
For the hour is much to late
The children remember sarah stout
And always take the yummy garbage out

"i'm tori amos and i hope that was a good nighty-night"

Hey kid, i've got a ride for you.
They say, your brain is a comic book tatoo
And you'll never be anything.
What will you do with your life, oh,
That's all you hear from noon till night.

Take a trip on a rocket ship, baby, where the sea is the sky.
I know the guy who runs the place and he's out of sight.
Flying dutchman are you out there?
Flying dutchman are you out there, flying dutchman?

Straight suits, they don't understand.
She tried that one with the alligator boots but the other side drew her in.
Heart falling fast when she left, even the milky way was dressed in black.

Take a trip on a rocket ship, baby, where the sea is the sky.
I know the guy who runs the place and he's out of sight.
Flying dutchman are you out there?
Flying dutchman are you out there, flying dutchman?

'cause they can't see what you're born to be.
They can see me.
They can't be
What they can't believe.
They can see what you see.

They keep the boys spinning in their own little world.
Tie him up so he won't say a word.
They keep the boys spinning in their own little world.
So afraid he'll be what they never where.

Humpty dumpty sat on the wall,
Humpty dumpty had a great fall, and
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put humpty together again

Humpty dumpty and betty louise, well,
Stole a sony and some camembert cheese
And she said "humpty baby, ah, take me,
Ooh yeah, take me to the river
'cause i like the way it runs, yeah,
Take me to the river, ah,
You know i like the way it runs, yeah"

He said, "ah, ooh, ev'rything's going my way"
He said "maybe it's my lucky day"
I said, "oh, anything you want i can give"
She said, "i want to take your picture, mm, just for me"
He said, "anything"
She said, "up there, baby, get on the wall, babe, ah"

Humpty dumpty sat on the wall,
Looked at her as he was falling, and
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put humpty together again

Hey, betty louise, betty louise
She said, "i like custard in the summer, honey"
Oh yeah, what it takes to be queen,
Hey, what it takes to be queen,
Hey, what it takes to be, oh

Cheese and onion sandwiches on derby chinaware
Fiddles and jigs and woogie my dog and tv havin' a swear
Takin' my dad for a pint or two, a sunday morning stroll
Licorice pipes and baggy suits, glen hoddle scorin' a goal
Catchin' a pike and ridin' my bike on wooden wheels and a bowl of eels
Yes... that's what i like, boy
That's what i like

Pie and mash and liquor, walking about in the rain
William brookes and comical looks, pianos, trams and trains
Colds and cockles and thunderstorms, place on the wireless and now
Grandfather clocks and coke and brandy, fountain pens and beano and dandy
That's what i like, i said
Hey, that's what i like

Little pubs out in the country, mother pearl and bernard faire
The sound of a banjo, barbershop singing and having a kip in the chair
Burnt toast, a beer from the wood and old jerry thomas' teeth
Jerry and chuck and cannon and ball, a banjo pickin' bill keith
And old bank loads, wood burnin' stoves and shirley maclaine
And petticoat lane

That's what i like, i said
That's what i like, yes boy
Yes, that's just, ohh

Bubble and squeak and jumble sales, little richard and jerry lee
Bonfire night and south and that's paddlin' in the sea
Polished brass and copper, salvation army bands
Violins and old coach inns and colored elastic bands
Tea in the mornin' and winter beginnin' and fishin' lines
And frogs and spurs are winning
Yes that's what i like
Hey, that's what i like

A day at the races, cover the bases, goin' out hoppin in kent
A new pair of braces, little kids faces sleeping under the tent
And wagons, chickens and pickin' blackberries and swallows and sledges
And devon and derries
And haddock and trotters and horses and knickers and swatters and stickers
And banjo, and kippers
Yeah, that's what i like, boy
That's what i like

words like violence
Break the silence
Come crashing in
Into my little world
Painful to me
Pierce right through me
Can’t you understand
Oh my little girl
All i ever wanted
All i ever needed
Is here in my arms
All i ever wanted
All i ever needed
Is here in my arms
Vows are spoken
To be broken
Feelings are intense
Words are trivial
Pleasures remain
So does the pain
Words are meaningless
And forgettable
All i ever wanted
All i ever needed
Is here in my arms
All i ever wanted
All i ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm

Words like violence
Break the silence
Come crashing in

take your mind back
I don’t know when
Sometime when it always seemed
To be just us and them
Girls that wore pink
And boys that wore blue
Boys that always grew up better men
Than me and you
What’s a man now, what’s a man mean
Is he rough or is he rugged
Is he cultural and clean
Now it’s all change, it’s got to change more
We think it’s getting better
But nobody’s really sure
And so it goes, go round again
But now and then we wonder who the real men are
See the nice boys, dancing in pairs
Golden earring, golden tan
Blow-wave in the hair
Sure they’re all straight, straight as a line
All the gays are macho
Can’t you see their leather shine
You don’t want to sound dumb, don’t want to offend
So don’t call me a faggot
Not unless you are a friend
Then if you’re tall, handsome, and strong
You can wear the uniform and i could play along
And so it goes, go round again
But now and then we wonder who the real men are
Time to get scared, time to change plan
Don’t know how to treat a lady
Don’t know how to be a man
Time to admit what you call defeat
‘cause there’s women running past you now
And you just drag your feet
Man makes a gun, man goes to war
Man can kill and man can drink
And man can take a whore
Kill all the blacks, kill all the reds
And if there’s war between the sexes
Then there’ll be no people left
And so it goes, go round again
But now and then we wonder who the real men are
And so it goes, go round again
But now and then we wonder who the real men are
And so it goes, go round again
But now and then we wonder who the real men are

I'm gonna be gary's girl
Six in the morning and my hands are roaming
¡®cause i'm gary's girl
There's a little bit of heaven on 92.7
When you're gary's girl
The boy knows how to turn me on
My friends all call me gary's girl

He's just, just, just, just so happenin'
You bet your life he is
You bet your life he is
You bet your life
He's a peel not a banana
He's a peel not a banana

I think i'll be gary's girl
We're all alone with his microphone
So i'm gary's girl
He's coming around
¡®cause i'm going down
The stretch to gary's world
The boy know's how to turn me on
My friends all call me gary's girl

¡®cause he's just, just, so, so, so happenin'
You bet your life he is
You bet your life he is
You bet your life
He's a peel not a banana
Still a peel not a banana

But he's just
What he is
And he is
And he is
And he is

She needs to sleep like the ocean
She needs to dream like that boy down in the stratum
Don't know what he's all about but
I'm sure he knows one of the spots
I need to be in this body
I need to breathe
I need no one but one
And it's gonna be here like it never was
Like it never was
He's got girls on his fingers
Little dough eyes making ringers ring off the phone
Tell her you know what she's been thinking
'cause i need only one, only one sugar
I said you are gonna see
I'm ready to be just with the one
With the blue blue notions of motions

In the streets the children screamed
The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed
And not a word was spoken
The church bells all were broken

The three men i admired most
The father, son, and the holy ghost
They took the last train for the coast
The day the music died

They were singing "bye bye miss american pie"
I drove my chevy to the levee but the levee was dry
Them good ol' boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Singing "this'll be the day that i die, this'll be the day that i die"

And the three men i admired most
The father, son, and the holy ghost
They took the last train for the coast
The day the music died

"you do your thing"

My samurai said going to the sanctuary
I knew about my love too
My samurai done making a liar of me when
To be happy
To be you
He says

My samurai take me down to the sanctuary
And i'm free
Gonna be
You know me
You know me
I said i'm gonna be
Gonna be
You know me

My samurai taking my face
And she's sticking it on a daisy
And you

"i think i gotta cut that one too
I get the samurai book out and just read words"

Poppa i know
There's a frog on my toe
Maybe i'll call him jethro
Maybe i'll grow up to be
As wise, good as he
And maybe i'll come back after you're long gone

Poppa i'm sure
The worms have eaten you now
And jethro's been on some frenchy's plate long ago
Now i'm pretty sure that i listen to every word
'cause i still hear you telling me still

"slap them boys when they're naughty
Make 'em crawl, make you haughty"

Make you strong, little girl
You paint them toes the reddish colour
And you know one day
You're gonna be bigger than a flea
You're gonna be bigger than that old poison ivy tree

Now i'm pretty sure
That i think you'd come and visit
And talk sometimes kind of like gidget
A funny little chance like an indian brave
He said "we all grew fat when the white man came"
But one day girl you're gonna learn to make 'em crawl
Make 'em grow tall
But have the grace
To be a lady with disgrace
And you fry them 'taters
And you make them with ladies, hands
I know you're my pappy's baby

So some say she got green enough field
And some say she got too many strings
With petticoats out and goin' hall gown

The sweetest nylon no not where she's gone
Gonna raise his tail and wrangle his wings

Some say she got plenty of stark
Some say she got some divas and kramer
Why all this spare then shaking her tail

The sweetest nylon no not where she's gone
Gonna raise his tail and wrangle his wings
Until the little chicken come home

Ride on, ride on friends of the black swan.
Ride on, ride on do you know where she's gone?
Gumdrops and saturdays, did eric call by the way?
He knew, he knew, and he knew where the pillow goes.

Ride on, ride on friends of the black swan.
Ride on, ride on you know where she's gone.
Buttercups and fishing flies the biggest thickest ever sky.
I know they know something.
I know.

Ride on, ride on now friends of the black swan.
Ride on, ride on you know where she's gone.

Little green men do o.k.,
It's the fairies' revenge they say,
And gumdrops and saturdays, did eric call by the way?

Mm, la la, ride on, ride on, ride on

i'll sing to the sun in the sky
I'll sing to the sun rises high
Carnival time is here
Magical time of year
And as the time draws near
Dreams fill my heart
I'll sing while he plays his guitar
I'll sing as the night wakes the dawn
Will love come my way
On this magical day
And will love stay in my heart

I'll sing while he plays his guitar
I'll sing in my dream from afar
Will love come my way
On this magical day
And will love stay in my heart

Will true love come my way
On this magical day
Or will i live alone in my dreams
Will true love come my way
On this magical day
Or will love only live on my dreams

Stay, stay in me, in my heart
You
I say it again
The way you walk and i know the way you can
The way you're telling me you're not a dangerous man
I said it again, i'll say again
I'm not that kind of woman
The way you're telling me
Whoa
What you can do
What you can do to me
What you can do...you

I wait all day for my sailor and sometimes he comes

See you over hill and dale
Riding on the wind i see
You know me, you know me like the nightingale
"oh fair maiden i see you standing there"
Will you hold me for just a fair time
The tune is playing in the fair night
I see you in my dreams
Fair boy your eyes haunt me

"lie, lie, lies ev'rywhere," said the father to the son
Your peppermint breath, gonna choke 'em to death,
Daddy watch your little black sheep run
He's got a knives in his back ev'ry time he opens up
You say "he gotta be strong if he wanna be a man"
Mister, i don't know how you can have

Sweet dreams, sweet dreams

Land, land of liberty
We're run by a constipated man
When you live in the past
You refuse to see when your
Daughter comes home nine months pregnant
With five billion points of light
Gonna shine 'em on the face of your friends
They got the earth in a sling
They got the world on her knees
They even got your zipper between their teeth

Sweet dreams, sweet dreams
You say, you say that you have 'em i say that you're a liar
Sweet dreams, sweet dreams

Go on, go on, go on dream
Your house is on fire
Come along now

Well, well summer wind been catching up with me
"elephant mind, missy you don't have
You're forgettin' to fly
Darlin when you sleep"
I got a hazy lazy susan

Takin' turns all over my dreams
I got lizards and snakes runnin' through my body
Funny how they all have my face
Sweet dreams, sweet dreams

If the sun refused to shine
I don't how
I don't mind

If the mountains fell in the sea
Let it be
It aint me

Got my own world to live through
Ain't gonna come near you

If a 6 turned out to be 9
I don't know how
I don't mind

If the hippies cut off their hair
I don't care
I don't care

I've got my own world to live through
Ain't gonna come near you

If the sun refused to shine...

What child is this...?

one day you see a strange little girl look at you
One day you see a strange little girl feeling blue
She’d run to the town one day
Leaving home and the country fair
Just beware
When you’re there
Strange little girl
She didn’t know how to live in a town that was rough
It didn’t take long before she knew she had enough
Walking home in her wrapped up world
She survived but she’s feeling old
And she found all things cold
Strange little girl
Where are you going?
Strange little girl
Where are you going?
Strange little girl
You really should
You really should be going
I know you wish you were
I know you wish you were
One day you see a strange little girl look at you
One day you see a strange little girl feeling blue
Walking home in her wrapped up world
She survived but she’s feeling old
Cuz she found all things cold
Strange little girl
Where are you going?
Strange little girl
Where are you going?
Strange little girl
Where are you going?
Strange little girl
Where are you going?
Strange little girl
Where are you going?
Strange little girl

It's so nice to live here,
I'm glad this is my home,
I've got a homestead on baltimore street
It's someplace to call my own

It's all kinds of people,
Familiar places, smiling faces,
I'm proud to say i'm a baltimorian.
But the 'birds' are the best,
The best of baltimore.

We like it here in baltimore,
There's so much love in baltimore,
Working hand in hand,
To make this place a better land in baltimore,
Love is what you'll find so stop and take the time,
I've got oriole baseball on my mind.

We like it here in baltimore,
There's so much love in baltimore,
Working hand in hand,
To make this place a better land in baltimore,
Love is what you'll find so stop and take the time,
To enjoy the brotherhood of baltimore.

The sun sets across the bay
I'm glad i spend my day
In a working american city
With all the people who make it that way,
It's time to jump in a taxi
For thirty-third street
Knowing i'll be watching those 'birds' go,
Watching weaver's show.

We like it here in baltimore,
There's so much love in baltimore,
Working hand in hand,
To make this place a better land in baltimore,
Love is what you'll find so stop and take the time,
I've got oriole baseball on my mind.

On my mind in baltimore

This house is like russia with eyes cold and grey,
You got me moving in a circle, i dyed my hair red today.

I just want a little passion to hold me in the dark,
I know i got some magic buried deep in my heart, yeah
But my priest says, "you ain't saving no souls."
My father says, "you ain't makin' any money."
My doctor says, "you just took it to the limit,"
And here i stand with this sword in my hand

You can say it one more time, what you don't like.
Let me hear it one more time
Then have a seat while i take to the sky, take to the sky.

My heart is like the ocean it gets in the way,
So close to touching freedom then i hear the guards call my name.
And my priest says, "you ain't saving no souls."
My father says, "you ain't makin' any money."
My doctor says, "you just took it to the limit,"
And here i stand with this sword in my hand

You can say it one more time, what you don't like.
Let me hear it one more time
Then have a seat while i take to the sky, take to the sky.

If you don't like me just a little, well, why do you hang around?
If you don't like me just a little, well, why do you hang around?
If you don't like me just a little, well, why do you take it, take it, take it?

This house is like russia
You can say it one more time, you can say it one more time,
You can say it one more time, what you don't like.
Let me hear it one more time
Then have a seat while i take to the sky, take to the sky,
Take to the sky, take to the sky, take to the sky.

I'm glad you're home
I bet you really missed me
I guess you did by the look in your eye
Lay back and relax
I put away the dishes
Then you and me can rock-a-bye

You can ring my bell
Ring my bell
You can ring my bell
Ring my bell

The night is young and full of possibilities
Come on and let yourself, be yourself
My love for you, so long i've been saving
Tonight was made for me and you

You can ring my bell
Ring my bell
You can ring my bell
Ring my bell

Anything you like
Come on, yeah
I'm getting over my falling clover

There was a time, i said to you
There was a time, i said to you
When i'm with him, do it to you
Do it to you, do it, you know

You can ring my bell
Ring my bell

You said you wanted
Safer ground
But you got caught up
In the river
I was there to
Save you boy
But you'd rather drown


You said you were
Unhappy
But that was alright
Better than not knowin'
What's on
The other side


And you know
I was always there
For you
And you know
I always believed
In you
I guess that wasn't
Enough


Chorus:
On the boundary
On the boundary baby
On the boundary
Don't you need my love
You won't even let me
Keep you from fallin'
From the boundary
That divides our love


I gave you
A kingdom
That you could be
Lord in
And we both know
You loved the
Taste of my world
But you can back
To your corner
Where you trip
Over your lines
Look left, look right
No room to hide


Repeat chorus


I guess that wasn't enough
I guess i wasn't enough


Repeat chorus

Make it in
The city
Do what you can
Wave to the boy
With a gun
In his hand


Lollipop girls
Pave the street
Stand in line
To be
Your limousine


You took my love
You took my money
You took my sex
Took my love
Took my money
Give me


Chorus:
Fayth
Help me keep
Myself together
With a little more
Fayth
With a little more
Fayth yeah
Fayth
I could keep
Our love together
With a little more
Fayth
I could wake up
And face the day


How do you keep
The romance there
When a little
French maid
Lives downstairs


Radio blasts
As the baby cries
Run to the dragon that
Runs my life


You took my love
You took my money
You took my sex
Took my love
Took my money
Give me


Repeat chorus


I could wake up
And face the day
Maybe i could
Start again
Why am i afraid
Of change
Maybe fayth
Could understand
Darlin' i remember
When
I held the violets
In my hand
Love can crush
Held too tight
We could bring
It back alive
With a little more
Fayth
Repeat chorus

Some boy you are
To take me by the hand
Through an elevator
Got a little red line that tells you, boy
Where the razor's been

You said girl if you think
You can turn that violator
You'll finally be that woman,yes
Finally be that woman
That's been frozen in that pretty silver girl

Yes,

And i've never seen blue
Like the blues he drives
In and around
And through me again
And i've never seen eyes
Like the blues he drives
In and around
And through me again
Through me again
Through me again

Some boy you are
To wear my color red
To wear it very proudly
And where it like a lady knows
How to cross her legs
There the birdy's been

And i've never seen blue
Like the blues he drives
In and around
And through me again
Said i've never seen eyes
Like the blues he drives
In and around
And through me again
Through me again
Through me again

Said now learn
Say goodbye to those would, say

You need coolin', baby, i'm not foolin'
I'm gonna send you back to schoolin'
Way down inside honey, you need it
I'm gonna give you my love
I'm gonna give you my love
Wanna whole lotta love (x4)

You've been learnin', baby, i been learnin'
All them good times, baby, baby, i've been yearnin'
Way, way down inside honey, you need it
I'm gonna give you my love
I'm gonna give you my love

You've been coolin', baby, i've been droolin'
All the good times i've been misusin'
Way, way down inside, i'm gonna give you my love
I'm gonna give you every inch of my love
Gonna give you my love

Way down inside, woman, you need, love

Shake for me, girl, i wanna be your backdoor man
Keep it coolin', baby

Every night i sit alone
Waiting to see you at my door
Arriving at the usual time
Waiting to share your love with mine

Well i've waited a lifetime just to find you
But you have to believe it's success that were seeking
Then in a few months you can come home to me

It's the job that you need
It's the school that you have to complete
You just have to go on with your days

But i'll be waiting right here as i am
But before you leave make me a promise i'll need you to keep

Remember me while you're away
Think of me when you're alone
In everything that i do
I do it in two's
'cause i'll always be walking with you
'cause i'll always be walking with you (side by side)
Always be walking with you (in my mind)

Always be walking with you (always be walking)
With you

Facing another empty evening
Lying alone here in my bed
You keep my mind from my job
But you lead my life with love

You hold my chin up high
You're love shines through my eyes
Your soul walks by my side
Keeping this body alive

As i run to catch the bus
I get a strange look or two
'cause instead of just buying a ticket for me
I also buy a ticket for you
Now some people say i'm crazy
But it's the only way not to be blue
In everything that i do
I do it in twos
'cause i'll always be walking with you
Always be (x4)
I'll always be walking with you

Remember me while you're away
Think of me when you're alone
In everything that i do
I do it in two's
'cause i'll always be walking with you
'cause i'll always be walking with you (side by side)
Always be walking with you (in my mind)

jodie wears a hat although it hasn’t rained for six days
She says a girl needs a gun these days
Hey on account of all the rattlesnakes
She looks like eve marie saint in on the waterfront
She reads simone de beauvoir in her american circumstance
She’s less than sure if her heart has come to stay in san jose
And her neverborn child still haunts her now
As she speeds down the freeway
As she tries her luck with the traffic police
Out of boredom more than spite
She never finds no trouble, she tries too hard
She’s obvious despite herself
She looks like eve marie saint in on the waterfront
She says all she needs is therapy
All you need is love is all you need
Jodie never sleeps ‘cause there are always needles in the hay
She says that a girl needs a gun these days
Hey on account of all the rattlesnakes
Hey on account of all the rattlesnakes
She looks like eve marie saint in on the waterfront
As she reads simone de beauvoir in her american circumstance
Her heart, heart’s like crazy paving
Upside down and back to front
She says ooh, it’s so hard to love
When love was your great disappointment

Count those rattlesnakes
She says a girl needs a gun these days
On account of all the rattlesnakes
Hey on account of all the rattlesnakes

Amazing grace how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now i sure is found
Was blind but now i see
'twas grace mother that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did ever your grace appear
The hour i first believed
When we've been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as his sun
I know that grace sweet grace has appeared
And now she'll bring me home

Purple sunset
Orange moon
I'm alone again
Without you
I knew someone
Had to lose


Kiss goodbye
Go back to your separate life
That you have with her
Ashes blow
In the windy skye
Take my heart
As you go


Chorus:
Baby it burns
Baby it burns
Baby it burns
To be your
Fire on the side
Taste my tears
See how the burn
Baby it burns
To be your
Fire on the side


Purple sunset
Orange moon
How can the
Music play
When the only band
Is made of gold
Wrapped around
Your hand
That i
Used to hold
Against my chest
Every night
But i still
Can hope
You will see
I'm your home
Repeat chorus


I knew someone
Had to lose
Kiss goodbye
Go back to your separate life
That you have with her
Take my heart
As you go


Repeat chorus

God i love to turn my little blue world upside down
God i love to turn my little blue world upside down
Inside my head the noise, chatter, chatter, chatter, chatter, chatter
You see i'm afraid
I'll always be still coming out of my mother upside down

Don't you love to turn this little blue girl upside down
Oh i know you love to turn this little blue girl baby upside down
But my heart it says
You been shatter, shatter, shatter, shatter, shattered
And i know you're still a boy
Still coming out of your mother

But when you gonna stand on your own ?
I say the world is sick
You say "tell me what that makes us darlin'"
You see, you always find my faults
Faster than you find your own
You say the world is getting rid of her demons
I say "baby what have you been smoking ?"

Well i dreamed, i dreamed, i dreamed i loved a black boy
My daddy would scream
Oh yeah

Don't you love to turn this little blue girl upside down
Any kind of touch i think is better than none even upside down
But you see i'm tangled up
Got a kitten, kitten, kitten, kitten in my hair
Cincinnati, i like the word
It's the only thing we can seem to turn upside down

Well i found the secret to life
I found the secret to life
I'm okay when everything is not okay
I said i found the secret to life
I found the secret to life
I'm okay when everything is not okay
Is not okay

Oh, we turn and we turn our little blue world upside down
I said, don't we love to turn our little blue world baby upside down ?
Inside my head a voice chatter, chatter, chatter, chatter, chatter
And it says girl you're all the same,still coming out of your mothers
Still coming out of your mothers, upside down

I was a fool to say the things i said,
I just lost my head
Made you cry, made you go,
I didn't mean to be so cold
I had no right mistreating you that way
And oh, how could i know the price i'd pay?

Sorry i ever caused you pain
Sorry i, sorry i said those hurtful things
But baby, all that really matters now is

I wanna get back with you
Just give me one more try
I wanna get back with you
Just stop this hurt inside
I gotta get back with you

I been walking down these cold and lonely streets
I been losing sleep
Had to prove i was strong but every night
Every night just proved me wrong
Had to think i had heaven right here in my hand
And oh, just let it slip away like sand

Oh, gimme one chance to make it right
One more chance, one more chance back in your light
'cause baby, all that really matters now is

I wanna get back with you
Hold me just like before
I wanna get back with you
Taking me somewhere warm
I gotta get back with you

Baby, i'd give my soul
Just to hold one more time,
Just to look in your eyes
'cause right now i'm half alive
No matter what i do
There's no living without you,
Can't you see baby?

I wanna get back with you
Just give me one more try
I wanna get back with you
Just stop this hurt inside
I gotta get back with you
Hold me just like before
Taking me somewhere warm
I wanna get back with you, babe
I wanna get back with you, baby
I wanna get back
I gotta get back with you
Oh, take me back

Here, i said
Don't even let this go
And it's, hey to that old man
I'm coming in the graveyard with my little tune
It's june
I said, she's gone but i'm alive
I'm alive
I'm coming in the graveyard
To, sing you to sleep now
