 United Kingdom » Lyrics [+ Cuir +] |
1. _ The Dream Is Gone
Now your sleep is over
You can't remember
Why you spent the whole night proving
What you'll be losing
The dream is gone
Do you want another one
Time to join the chorus line
Sing into the safe design
You don't want more than this
You don't want more than this
Time to take the easy way out
Alone not a hope or a doubt
Finish the dream that brought you so much bliss
Sails filled with wind and the joy deep within
Finish with the light that holds the . . .
You don't need it anymore

2. _ United Kingdom
Child keeps its toys hidden away
Till it wants to break them
Take your share and go away
Make sure you get the last word
Sit back out of harm's reach
Watch the little cup of poison
Chasing its own tail around and around
Until it's exhausted at its wits end
United kingdom
I try my best i wait for you to nail me
Now i try and never do
Anything they tell me
'cause waiting about an inch
Under human nature
Tragedies and comedies
And a touching sense of failure
United kingdom
When you held me in your arms
At the limits of your patience
I knew i'd always lose
Every scene of violence
When you held me in your arms
Why didn't you want me
When you held me in your arms
Why didn't you touch me
Well i used to know how
To slip through your blind spot
And now i just watch myself
Set the alarms off
I'm happier now in my shame
And don't look to you for anything
United kingdom

3. _ Animal Pen
Giving up that's the easy part
Turn your pockets out
Tear your room apart
But you can't find anything
To help you on your way
Run, try to catch the bus
And reach it just as it pulls away
For the black hole and the beautiful crab nebulae
Time running out
Time running dry
Frozen peas and carrots
And pickled animal parts
Sweet anticipation
For the well-preserved at heart
One more walk around the animal pen
Keeping to the sun
But i'll end up in the shade again
Just one more walk
Underneath the big starry-ass sky
I wasn't born good enough
That i wasn't born good enough for
Doctor don't you worry
Doctor i feel fine
Doctor i just swallowed
Every grape on the vine
Hey look here it comes
My great big luxury ufo
Now drive this thing and go fast
Why are we moving so slow
Just one more walk
Around the animal pen
I'm running happily in the sun
I'll end up in the shade again
Just one more walk
Underneath the big empty sky
That i wasn't born good enough for
Doctor don't you worry
Doctor i feel fine
As long as i can fill that form
I'll sign any dotted line

4. _ Heaven Of Your Hands
Once was a woman with a silver voice
Said she was accustomed to my face
But i could tell she'd never love anyone
And wanted to run away because i could tell
That she really understands
There was so much that i had to offer
But now i'm all alone at four am
And all i got is the midnight shivers
So i turn the dial and think
Maybe i'll find myself a friend
Who say they understand
Why i waste all my time so far away
From the heaven of your hands
And anyone can give you an answer
'cause nothing in this life seems real
But i'm nothing without the touch i just don't feel
Mother don't you hear your baby crying
Why don't you reach down and pick it up
Mother all your baby's toys are broken
And i know heaven's not for me
That's something i understand i don't know how to live
Without the heaven of your hands
There's a heaven in your hands

5. _ Never Mind
You wonder what you want from me
Never mind
You wonder why i say the things i do
Never mind
You wonder would i waste my time
Looking for and never find
You wonder what i see in you
Never mind
Guess i could learn to stay
With those whose lives are gold
Play their game for the end
For the cold
You say "admit to all these words"
Never mind
That i've got no conscious for this world
Never mind
You say that there's no love
That i could ever find
Okay well i just waste my time
Guess i could learn to stay
Who those who barely live
Their poor eyes only take
They never give
To all your arguments and threats
Never mind
Your hidden motives and regrets
Never mind
It doesn't matter to me
What you keep or what you leave behind
If you're a coward and you're blind
Never mind
Guess i could learn to stay
With those who understand
Play the game to win
With a losing hand

6. _ Kathleen
When no one cares for you
You're made of straw
No appointments to keep
No human law
When no one cares for you
You're made of straw
You're living on borrowed time
You can't do nothing right
You can't commit a crime
When no one cares for you
Well honey you're made of straw
Your love kathleen is for someone
That i swear i could have been
When no one cares for you
You're made of straw
You can't do nothing right
You can't uphold a law
When no one cares for you

7. _ Hula Maiden
Well i got into waikiki
And i spend my time up in the hotel room
No sunburn for me
No friends no family
Yes i see the view
Well i think i seen it somewhere before
Curled up on the sand
Curled up on the floor
And the hula maiden says
I'll give you everything for free
You're as hungry as the tide
That's drowning me
Well i took my big free ride
I went out to the big barbecue
And i got smashed on the beach
I was thinking about you
This is my big aloha
Brought to you from the volcano state
Where they serve up your soul
For $3.99 a plate
And the hula maiden says
I'll give you everything for free
Oh sugar you're as hungry as the tide
That's washing over me
And the hula maiden said
Oh darling i see it in your eyes
Well did you do it over here beautiful
Did you come here to die
Well she said did you come here to buy
Well this my big aloha
Coming to you from the volcano state
Where they lose track of your soul
And never bring you your spaghetti plate

8. _ Here They Roll Down
Here they roll down
Like a miracle that's over
Here they slow down
Like a miracle that's over
Tell them for me as you see them speeding by
That their lights don't light the way
Tell them for me if you can catch their eye
That i'd never stand in their way
Here they roll down
Like a miracle that's over
Here they slow down
Like a miracle that's over
You can't find as you're speeding by
Anywhere you want to stop
You can't find as you're speeding by
Anyone to raise you up
Here they roll down
Like a miracle that's over
Hey you slow down
Like the miracle was over
If your broken face can find a lover
Give away your chance to fly
Give away your will power
Hey look at me i'm free
You can hear them fall out
You can see them toss it up
You can be caught in their lights as they flash by
You can go with them without knowing why

9. _ Dreamers Of The Dream
Always in a hurry, impatient to get away
Always think that things look a lot better
When they're seen from far away
But if you take me by the hand
I'll love you like the sea
I'll wash over every border
Drown every boundary
Why won't you let me in
'cause i'd like to see
Who's been dreaming the dream of you
Can't you feel the pull of this season's weather
Drawing the world into its shell
Draws and draws like poison
And no one sweet enough to resist the smell
And i see all the secrets that you keep
Use them to build your high wall
Use them to drown in your sleep
Why can't i just come in
'cause i'd like to see
I'd like to be the smallest part of the dream that's you
I know that i don't feel the seasons
And i know that i'm not really welcome
But i never got my invitation to join
The dreamers of the dream
Always in a hurry, impatient to get away
Always think that things look a lot better
When they're seen from far away
