Downtown, kicking round
Aint no way to go get me down We are all dancing at the biking lounge Smoking spinsters, swinging sounds All right, I'm a little uptight Gonna need my shot tonight One drink and I'll be alright That's me shining in the party lights But you don't know me And you don't own me Its only when I dance That you can see the real me It's only when I dance The lights go down and shine on me Its only when I dance Downtown til the lights go down Smoking hidden with the real get down We're living wild and free Never thought it's the life for me Just moving to a whole new beat Got the world under my feet You warm me with your naked eyes Your desire's my paradise And you don't know me And you don't own me Its only when I dance That you can see the real me It's only when I dance The lights go down and shine on me Its only when I dance Its only when I dance Its only when I dance That you can see the real me Its only when I dance The lights go down and shine on me Its only when I dance Its only when I dance Its only when I dance Its only when I dance The lights go down and shine on me Its only when I dance Its only when I dance Its only when I dance |

Polaroids
S. Colvin Please no more therapy Mother take care of me Piece me together with a Needle and thread Wrap me in eiderdown Lace from your wedding gown Fold me and lay me down On your bed Or liken me to a shoe Blackened and spit-shined through Kicking back home to you Smiling back home Singing back home to you Laughing back home to you Dragging back home to you I was so wary then The ugly American Thinner than oxygen Tough as a whore I said you can lie to me I own what's inside of me And nothing surprises me anymore But forests in Germany Kids in the Tuileries Broken-down fortresses In old Italy And claiming his victory Shrouded in mystery He went running away with me Back in our home New York Walking these streets forlorn We all in our uniforms Black and black Doing that slouch and jive The artist must survive We've got all we need we cried And we don't look back Thinking we had it made Poised for the hit parade Knee deep in accolades The conceptual pair But ever the malcontent He left without incident Vanished into thin air Now I am always amazed Words can fill up a page Pages fill up the days Between him and me But the vows that we never keep From bedrooms to business-speak Make me remember how cheap Words can be And the letters I wrote you of Were those of the desperate stuff Like begging for love in a suicide threat But I am too young to die Too old for a lullaby Too tired for life on the ledge But I had a dream last night Of lovers who walked the plank Out on the edge of time Amidst ridicule They laughed as they rocked and reeled Over the mining fields Coming to rest on this ship of fools But he just took polaroids Of her smile in the light Of the dawn of the menacing sky And before they went overboard She turned and held up a card And it said Valentine |

She laughs like a child
One who can't understand Why she lives her whole life With her head in her hands And she's always in pain That's what makes her So wonderfully strange She laughs like a child One who likes to pretend That she lives for today Though she prays for the end And she's never the same That's what makes her So wonderfully strange She's so up and down Like the sun and the earth And she swears, and she swears She remembers the day Of he birth That's the day she became So wonderfully strange Oh yeah, she's so wonderfully strange It may take some time To digest what she said Or begin to hear the Symphony playin' in her head It's the place were she lives She's so wonderfully strange She's so up and down Like the sun and the earth And she swears, and she swears She remembers the day Of her birth That's the day she became So wonderfully strange Oh yeah, she's so wonderfully strange Oh yeah, she's so wonderfully... She lives in the dark Like a tired little girl She begs to be loved But she hates to be lonely Such a tragic fantasy She laughs like a child One who likes to pretend That she lives for today Though she prays for the end And she's never the same That's what makes her So wonderfully strange She's so up and down Like the sun and the earth And she swears, and she swears She remembers the day Of her birth That's the day she became So wonderfully strange Oh yeah, she's so wonderfully strange Oh yeah, she's so wonderfully strange Oh yeah, she's so wonderfully strange Oh yeah, so wonderfully... [Fades to End] She's so wonderfully strange She's so wonderfully strange She's so wonderfully strange She's so wonderfully strange She's so wonderfully strange She's so wonderfully strange |
