Sisters Of Avalon

Over land and over sea
She reaches out to me
weaving and threading the loom
from womb to womb
Slaves and merchants
pilgrims and thieves
felt her hand and charted skies
by following her moon
Mother
Mother
Mother

Some came and built with stone and bone
some planted fields on promised land
and harvested their dreams, then disappeared
As generations lose their memory
I'll try and remind my heart
and hope that it will set me free
Mother
Mother
Mother

Condemning my true nature
I stood outside of myself
outside of myself
I stood outside
conditioning is what made me
lose sight of myself
lose sight of myself
lose sight

Ravens cry out, tides pull in,
somehow she replenishes
giving birth again
Mother
Mother
Mother...

Every morning the clock kicks off the beat.
Little Joe struggles just to get up on his feet.
Waits in his platforms for the right train to come.
Sipping his coffee another day has begun

Little Joe got work for minimum wage
Tries to get through another dead beat day
At five a clock he comes home to change
takes him many hours just to rearrange

And he works his body just to be somebody
There's a woman in the mirror looking like a dream
And he works his body and he feels somebody
and the working boy becomes a dancing queen

And he works his body just to be somebody.
There's a woman in the mirror looking like a dream.
And he works his body just to feel somebody
and the working boy becomes a dancing queen.

Every night the DJ kicks off the beat.
Little Cleo's jumping just to get up on her feet.
Waits in her platforms for the right song to come.
Sipping her cocktail another night has begun.

And he works his body just to be somebody.
There's a woman in the mirror looking like a dream.
And he works his body and he feels somebody
and the working boy became a dancing queen.

Every morning the clock kicks off the beat
Little Joe struggles just to get up on his feet.
Waits in his platforms for the right train to come...

Say a prayer for all the souls in bloom
cut down far too soon
under the scarlet moon
under the scarlet moon
say a prayer

So, what are you weaving there marionette
keepin' your balance by a single thread
keepin' your heart strings tight and pure
all you can muster and nothing more
and nothing more
and still you're sore
and still you're sore
when do you soar

sometimes justice is the line you walk or sign,
but justice is complex and a matter of time
sometimes it's hanging in the balance
or dancing in the shadow like a silhouette
so what you weaving there marionette
so what you weaving there marionette

Say a prayer for all the souls in bloom
cut down far too soon
under the scarlet moon
under the scarlet moon
say a prayer, say a prayer
say a prayer, say a prayer

Some people get a sadness so long
they just go on thinking it's a natural thing
some people throw their hands in the sky
and they wonder why god don't reply
well it's a strange, strange time
all our friends dropping like flies
everything that's come to pass
all the time we thought would last.
well I'll just button my coat and cover my neck
I got barely enough time to catch my breath
all these pictures I can't forget
it can fill your cup with regret
it can fill your cup with regret
it can fill your cup with regret

Say a prayer for all the souls in bloom
cut down far too soon
under the scarlet moon
under the scarlet moon

Say a prayer for all the souls in bloom
cut down far too soon
under the scarlet moon
under the scarlet moon

So, what are you weaving there marionette
keepin' your balance by a single thread
keepin' your heart strings tight and pure
all you can muster and nothing more

Some people throw their hands in the sky
and they wonder why god don't reply
well it's a strange, strange time
all our friends dropping like flies
what are you weaving at marionette
everything that's come to pass
all the time we thought would last.
what are you weaving at marionette...

Brimstone and fire
Brimstone and fire
Brimstone and fire

I met a woman at the laundry mat
she left her sock in my dryer
I met a woman in a yellow cap
it said brimstone and fire

I said is this luck?
with just a glance
she smiled, and I thought,
is this a sign?
from above or below?.. oh now..

Brimstone and fire
Brimstone and fire
Brimstone and fire

the next week at the cinema
she put her hand on my shoulder
she almost kissed me walking home
and I didn't even scold her
then I said where is this leading
with just a heavy sigh
I quickened my pace
she was following
as if her heart would never tire

Brimstone and fire
Brimstone and fire
as if her heart would never tire
Brimstone and fire
Brimstone and fire
Brimstone and fire

Now we have dinner every saturday
I make spaghetti, she brings cake
I make spaghetti with tomato sauce,
because that's all I can make
And when she lights the candles
I think, here we go
but it's so pleasant after all
and I say very low
don't forget to light the fire

Brimstone and fire
Brimstone and fire
Brimstone and fire
and i say don't forget to light the fire
Brimstone and fire
Brimstone and fire
Brimstone and fire

Fashion fascists out in droves,
some with powder up their nose
and the money men who had to steal away.
Telling stories who they've had.
Who's a no count, who looks bad.
Then they turn around and say how much they like you
like you, like you? No.

I love to hate you
I love to hate you
I love to hate you
I really do

Playing games with people's lives,
change the rules when stakes are high.
All the vampires come out at night to play
Things are different today,
that is always what you say.
Well maybe so, except for people like you
like you, like you? No.

I love to hate you
I love to hate you
I love to hate you
I really do

Look around you can't look down.
You might miss out on what you think
is cool... you fool

You've decided who I am, in this brief experience
and if it's worth spending your precious time on me.
My friend Mel he could relate,
told me once I love to hate
I get so hot the words get stuck
stuck like you, like you, like you?
No.

I love to hate you
I love to hate you
I love to hate you
I really do

I love to hate you
I love to hate you
I love to hate you
I really do

It's not just the clothes that you wear
Or the way you do your hair
It's just you.

You don't know where you belong
you should be more careful
as you follow blindly along
you just need to belong somehow

Relying on rhetoric
not well versed on topics
any idea what you're talking about?
revisions of history
fair well in some company
but don't shove that bullshit down
my throat

You don't know where you belong
you should be more careful
as you follow blindly along
to find something to swear to
till you don't know what's right from wrong
you just need to belong somehow

Left suppresses right
right suppresses left
so what's left, and what's right?
You're told what to wear,
you're told what to like
it'd be nice if you'd think for yourself sometime,
but you don't.

You don't know where you belong
you should be more careful
as you follow blindly along
to find something to swear to
till you don't know what's right from wrong
you just need to belong somehow
you just need to belong somehow

Mix sheer hypocrisy with mediocrity
you'll play it safe every time-
so life turns up empty
and you're so dissatisfied
who are you blaming this time?
don't you know?

You don't know where you belong
you should be more careful
as you follow blindly along
to find something to swear to
till you don't know what's right from wrong
you just need to belong somehow
you just need to belong somehow...

Heaven,
you say it could be heaven
but I don't really know
lovers come and go
when hot gets a little cold

Infatuation
is just the great anticipation
of starring in that picture show
let's wait until the credits roll
when hot gets a little cold
when hot gets a little cold

I could get carried away
but not anymore
What was it I heard you say
you love me 'cause I'm strong,
I hope that you're not wrong

Heaven, you say it could be heaven,
well I don't really know
I'll try not to let it show
when hot gets a little cold
when hot gets a little cold

I could get carried away
but not anymore
What was it I heard you say
you love me 'cause I'm strong,
I hope that you're not wrong

Heaven,
you say it could be heaven,
well I don't really know
lovers come and go
when hot gets a little cold
when hot gets a little cold
when hot gets a little cold
