Who can it be knocking at my door?
Go 'way, don't come 'round here no more. Can't you see that it's late at night? I'm very tired, and I'm not feeling right. All I wish is to be alone; Stay away, don't you invade my home. Best off if you hang outside, Don't come in - I'll only run and hide. Who can it be now? Who can it be now? Who can it be now? Who can it be now? Who can it be knocking at my door? Make no sound, tip-toe across the floor. If he hears, he'll knock all day, I'll be trapped, and here I'll have to stay. I've done no harm, I keep to myself; There's nothing wrong with my state of mental health. I like it here with my childhood friend; Here they come, those feelings again! Who can it be now? Who can it be now? Who can it be now? Who can it be now? Is it the man come to take me away? Why do they follow me? It's not the future that I can see, It's just my fantasy Oh...Who can it be now? Oh...Who can it...Who can it... Yeah yeah yeah |

Traveling in a
fried out combie On a hippie trail head full of zombie I met a strange lady she made me nervous She took me in and gave me breakfast And she said Do you come from a land down under Where women glow and men plunder Can't you hear can't you hear the thunder You better run you better take cover Buying bread from a man in Brussels He was six foot four and full of muscles I said Do you speak a my language He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich And he said I come from a land down under Where beer does flow and men chunder Can't you hear can't you hear the thunder You better run you better take cover Lying in a den in Bombay With a slack jaw and not much to say I said to the man Are you trying to tempt me Because I come from the land of plenty And he said Oh Do you come from a land down under oh yeah yeah Where women glow and men plunder Can't you hear can't you hear the thunder You better run you better take cover Do you come from a land down under Where women glow and men plunder Can't you hear can't you hear the thunder You better run you better take cover Do you come from a land down under Where women glow and men plunder Can't you hear can't you hear the thunder You better run you better take cover Do you come from a land down under Where women glow and men plunder Can't you hear can't you hear the thunder You better run you better take cover |

Jump down the shelters to get away The boys are cockin' up their guns Tell us general, is it party time? If it is can we all come? Don't think that we don't know Don't think that we're not trying Don't think we move too slow It's no use after crying Saying It's a mistake, it's a mistake It's a mistake, it's a mistake After the laughter has died away And all the boys have had their fun No surface noise now, not much to say They've got the bad guys on the run Don't try to say you're sorry Don't say he drew his gun They've gone and grabbed old Ronnie He's not the only one Saying It's a mistake, it's a mistake It's a mistake, it's a mistake Tell us commander, what do you think? 'Cos we know that you love all that power Is it on then, are we on the brink? We wish you'd all throw in the towel We'll not fade out too soon Not in this finest hour Whistle your favourite tune We'll send a card and a flower Saying It's a mistake, it's a mistake It's a mistake, it's a mistake |

Don't ask me to love my neighbour Cause I don't love the man Don't ask me for my favours I won't lend a hand And if I had real power Then I could disappear Wouldn't have to be around you I'd sink into the atmosphere Then I wouldn't hear Your hard luck story It's a hard luck, a hard luck story Don't ask me to tip the waiter For he is underhand I can tell he is a woman hater And he is a nasty man Within reach lies all desire For each and every soul Stripped bare and stretching higher You fall into the last balck hole To end your hard Hard luck story It's a hard luck Hard luck story Don't ask me to pray to Jesus I've never met the man I only meet weekend preachers Pictures of the promised land All the new holy saviours Who pretend to understand Who do you think will save you Modern day beggar man Such a hard luck Hard luck story It's a hard luck Hard luck story It's such a hard Hard luck story It's a hard luck Hard luck story Don't ask me to love my neighbour Don't ask me to tip the waiter Don't ask me to pray to Jesus He picked his time to leave us It's a hard luck Hard luck story It's a hard luck Hard luck story It's a hard luck story Hard luck story |

There's a picture in the hall, I know And it's from a time when feelings showed Though I hold it close before my eyes My heart refuses to see Loving you could have been, oh so easy But there is something you don't understand Through the times when two were one completely There was another in this well laid plan This corridor seems to stretch for years ahead But patient hearts cannot match times steady tread Is this the threshold of a fantasy? Is there still life at all? Loving you could have been, oh so easy But there is something you don't understand Through the times when two were one completely There was another in this well laid plan Best laid plan of ours Watering the garden, some comfort for the twilight years Still, life never lingers, it marches past our veil of tears A moment's all we've got, to have and to hold Don't slip, don't blink, don't turn your head With a photographic memory I could live in a time that used to be Is this the threshold of a fantasy? Is there still life at all? Loving you could have been, oh so easy But there is something you don't understand Through the times when I was won completely There was another in this well laid plan Loving you could have been, oh so easy But there is something you don't understand There was a time when I was won completely Our emotions they got out of hand |

Don't take the fire from your eyes Must make them feel the heat They build castles underground for the rich and politic elite Keep all the home fires burning, Don't let the lights go out The streets are empty, and there's nobody about. We'll be alright in the morning time, yeah We're doing fine, I'll see you on the night line There's no need for you to fight, boys, Hang up all your guns Find your mask and asbestos you can, get ready to run Keep all the food lines moving, Don't come cry'n' for more The signs were there, you should have bought connections before We'll be alright in the morning time, yeah We're doing fine, I'll see you on the nightline It's such a big joke It's the talk of the town All the planets to whom I spoke Are trying their best to play it down Don't take the fire from your eyes Must make them feel the heat But my head's unsteady I can't seem to keep my feet We'll be alright in the morning time, yeah We're doing fine, I'll see you on the nightline Jump off the Eiffel Tower Just have a look around Move fast, in the tunnels of the underground Move fast, in the tunnels of the underground Let's go |

No-one knows what I can see and What I see pleases me on my roof South Pacific hot sea pool, Coney Island amusement school for mispent youth It's all in my own front yard, seagulls Grazing in t the park and foreshore South-east wind pins back my ears Luna Park lights up the years of painless days CHORUS I like it, upstairs in my house Dealers selling junk and trash, People spend their hard earned cash on Sundays It's quiet when they fade away Westgate Bridge breaks up the day into red sky CHORUS No-one knows what I can see and What I see it pleases me on my roof CHORUS |

Feel so washed up today Haven't really got much to say Blood on the pillow on my bed Explains the pain that's in my head Sometimes I don't know just where to go Sometimes I can't tell, but it's just as well 'Cos I'm walking on a high wire High wire Oh won't someone let me in I'm stinking and I'm full of gin No need to close the door so fast I'm very fragile not built to last Sometimes I don't know just where to go Sometimes I can't tell, but it's just as well 'Cos I'm walking on a high wire High wire Have to pull it together We're in for some stormy weather Have to pull it together We're in for some nasty weather High wire, high wire high wire, high wire high wire, high wire It really isn't too much fun Sitting round waiting for the night to come It's almost time to put on my suit of cool I may be an idiot but indeed I am no fool Sometimes I don't know just where to go Sometimes I can't tell, but it's just as well 'Cos I'm walking on a high wire |

I can't get to sleep I think about the implications Of diving in too deep And possibly the complications Especially at night I worry over situations I know will be alright Perahaps its just my imagination Day after day it reappears Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear Ghosts appear and fade away Alone between the sheets Only brings exasperation It's time to walk the streets Smell the desperation At least there's pretty lights And though there's little variation It nullifies the night From overkill Day after day it reappears Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear Ghosts appear and fade away I can't get to sleep I think about the implications Of diving in too deep And possibly the complications Especially at night I worry over situations I know will be alright It's just overkill Day after day it reappears Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear Ghosts appear and fade away |

Like a man who has two hearts Both of them worlds apart Both of them play their part you know Like a man who has two wives His life the becomes alibis Nobody asks him why you know Can there be peace Between the heart and the brain? No release always the same I won't come here again Like a man who has one hand Still he does what he can Shows he is twice the man you are Are we just beasts With our burdens of pain No release always the same Cut off my legs Torture and maim I'm back here again Like a man who has two hearts One day they fell apart Both of them played their part you know Can there be peace Between the heart and the brain No release to try is in vain Stories repeat always the same I won't come here again. |

I could stand but I don't like the feeling I could fall but I'm always on the floor You could make a million staring at the ceiling ou could break your back and still be poor One for the liar One for the cheat One for the man who you'll never meet Piece of the action and a portion of pie They'll be there waiting when your big chance comes by There's a snake on top of every ladder Who will tell you that he's your best friend Everyone important needs an adder But subtraction gets you in the end One for the liar One for the cheat One for the man who you'll never meet Piece of the action and a portion of pie They'll be there waiting when your big chance comes by They don't care they don't mind The in-betweens will steal you blind I don't know I can't say It seems its always been this way You won't feel or complain The gentle leech will cause no pain |

Down by the sea I found your hidden treasure Just you and me, We overdosed on pleasure Yonnies in the wind, We're ruggin' up for winter Putting out the bins In cold and windy weather Down by the docks Live all the silent sea-ships Crates are stored on blocks Where now only the rats live Sail me down the river Till we reach the shore Diving into the center Eating out the core Down on the beach Saluting Captain Benbow Always out of reach It's quiet when the tide's low Climbing up the cliffs You can see for miles far The boat that ran adrift Is sitting on the sandbar Laughing at the waves That storm the river mouth The ice is on the move now Creeping north and south Down by the sea I found your hidden treasure Just you and me We over-dosed on pleasure Listen to your heart Screamin' at the sky Can't you feel it tremble? Don't you wonder why |
