don't want to be an actor, pretending on the stage
don't want to be a writer with my thought out on the page don't want to be a painter 'cause everyone comes to look don't want to be anything where my life's an open book a dream it's true but I'd see it through if I could be.. wasting my time with you don't want to be a farmer, working in the sun don't want to be an outlaw, always on the run don't want to be a climber, reaching for the top don't want to be anything where I don't know when to stop a dream it's true but I'd see it through if I could be.. wasting my time with you so if I'm inside your head don't believe what you might have read you'll see what I might have said to hear it come waste your time with me come waste your time with me ... so if I'm inside your head don't believe what you might have read you'll see what I might have said to hear it come waste your time with me come waste your time with me come waste your time with me come waste your time with me ... |

Ahhh!
Divided sky, the wind blows high (The divided sky chant is part of an ancient ritual dating back to the pre-Wilson years of She purity in Gamehendge. After listening to the sacred sounds for a sloping lawn, three chosen subjects eat a special root collected at the base of the enormous mountain that rises in the center of the forest. The root is believed to contain the spirit of Icculus, who lives at the top of the mountain. After eating the root, they venture into a vast field at sundown. The field is deep green, and stretches as far as the eye can see in all directions. In the center of the field stands an enormous black rhombus. They climb the rhombus and begin to sing, paying homage to the gods of the night sky.) |

All the way home we felt we had a chance
To review the coulds before we were born And to invite a new game of cant’s Absorbed in the clouds, a voice from afar said, “With the right device you can make a pattern grow or you can tune up your car” So we stayed on the train admiring the time As the lights of the city drew near We drank a little wine They were blurry and green, outer space in between, With a depth and a form unclear Then we saw it up ahead A flickering lantern lit up on the tracks In the rugs that had covered up the bridge From the banks of a river to the bed of a valley upstream to the place where you live The glass from the lantern cast back the sight of a drive-in movie we drove by below We saw where we’d been in the pictures within, Projecting all the places we would go So we followed the scene and flowed up your steps To a smooth wooden floor in a trance The train whistle melody wove through the trees and in through the door to signal the turns of a dance |

An asteroid crashed and nothing burned
It made me wonder Do tigers sleep in lily patches? Do rhinos run from thunder. I got an ache in my left ear I felt the truth but I still could hear. Made me think, I would not be burned, but rather give myself to science, I felt that I could help To science, I felt that I can help Paranoid the doctor ran, Shouting his graphic translation All out of order Gang wars and ails of riches, Spewing forth their color He purposely waited till I was done To knock on the lavatory door Accusing me of ruining the fun, He knocked on it some more The fun, He knocked on it some more. And alloy suitors were all inside An apple or a grape To put forth a cloud of Mercury In front of a mighty car On a freeway in Los Angeles Once the spraying has been done 'Cause there's more pain from necessity You're a portrait of your past, There's a mummy in the cabinet. Are there no more arrows left? What's that rubber bottle doing here? How's that napkin for a proof Ten cents to a dollar now For a shelf of pregnant ears Robert Palmer is applauded again, again, again So stupendous, living in this tube. |

I needed
less restraint before I needed to hit the lights and close the door I'm fine, I'm fine, 'cause I'm... Chorus: Dripping in this strange design none is yours and far less mine hold the wheel, read the sign keep the tires off the line just relax you're doing fine swimming in this real thing I call life, but can I bring a few companions on this ride? I'm feeling my heart's not beating anymore I'm feeling it's all right this happened once before I'm fine, I'm fine, 'cause I'm... (chorus 2x) |

The sky is burning in this lonely land
And I kneel by the river and I feel the sand and the wind The wind from beyond the mountain The wind from beyond the mountain And she comes to me in this lonely land And looks down from the multi-beast on which she rides like the wind The wind from beyond the mountain The wind from beyond the mountain Tela was born in a vulgar crooked hut In the shadow of Wilson's castle Venomous scorn from a life of bitter toil In the shadow of Wilson's castle Glory esteem fueled by her hatred it grew Swelling to the point where it would Burst at the seems there was nothing she could do Tela Tela jewel of Wilson's foul domain Tela Tela jewel of Wilson's foul domain A lullaby the breezes whisper And I look into her eyes and my frozen heart begins to thaw And burns, 'til layer after layer melts away into a pool A sky blue mirror of her eyes And my soul is made of marble but in her gaze I crumble into dust And drift away on the wind The wind from beyond the mountain The wind from beyond the mountain Tela grew strong from her struggle to endure In the shadow of Wilson's castle Time touched her wounds and shelter proved the cure In the shadow of Wilson's castle Each passing day seemed to feed the brazen serpent locked inside And liberate the spirit she'd concealed for so long There was no place left to hide Tela Tela jewel of Wilson's foul domain Tela Tela jewel of Wilson's foul domain A lullaby the breezes whisper |

Swinging on the lifeline
Fraying bits of twine Entangled in the remnants of the Knot I left behind And asking you to help me make it Finally unwind But God never listens to what I say God never listens to what I say And you don't get a refund If you overpray And when the line is breaking And when I'm near the end When all the time spent leading I've been following instead When all my thoughts and memories are Left hanging by a thread God never listens... Stranded on this slender string The minutes seem to last a lifetime Dangling here between the light above And blue below that drags me down But God never listens to what I say God never listens to what I say And you don't get a refund If you overpray |

The overhead view is of me in a maze
And you see what I'm hunting a few steps away And I take a wrong turn and I'm on the wrong path And the people all watching enjoy a good laugh Embarrassed with failure, I try to reverse The course that my tread had already traversed So doing the trauma engulfing my dream Invaded through what was an unguarded seam The torrent of helplessness swept me away To the cavern of shame and the hall of dismay Inside me a voice was repeating this phrase: "You've lost it, you'll never get out of this maze" You'll never get out of this maze (x7) |

He walked on down the hall
Walked on down the hall He said "mother" "Father, I want to kill you" "Mother I want to cook you breakfest I want to cook you breakfest, mother Mother, I wanna cook you breakfest Then I wanna, I wanna borrow the car Then I wanna borrow the car Then I wanna" Trying to make a woman match your moves And I'm sharing in the weekapaug groove Trying to make a woman match your moves And I'm sharing in the weekapaug groove Trying to make a woman match your moves And I'm sharing in the weekapaug groove |

The feeling's not the same,
In fact it's getting pretty tame, It's just not that great anymore, I guess I'll go outside And flag a weasel for a ride, And take it on down to the shore Wallowing in fear, The days and weeks that you're not here, Was all the waiting in vain? The day that you arrived My sleeping monkey is revived, But you sent him home on the train Home on the train, Why'd you send my monkey on a train? The day that you arrived, My sleeping monkey is revived, But you sent him home on the train |

It's been ten long years since I left my home in the hollow where I was born
Where the cool fall nights make the woods smell right and the fox hunter blows him horn I fell in love with a girl from the town, I thought that she would be true I ran away to Charlottsville and worked in a sawmill or two What have they done to the old home place? Why did they tear it down? And why did I leave the plow in the field and look for a job in the town? Now the girl ran off with somebody else, The taverns took all my pay And here I stand where the old home stood before they took it away Now the geese they fly south and the cold wind blows as I stand here and hang my head I've lost my love and I've lost my home, and now I wish that I was dead (chorus) |

I come from the land where the oceans freeze
Spent three long months on the open seas Paddled 'til it seemed I could take no more When my ship hit ground on Prussia's shores How was I to know that day That the winds had swept me Wilson's way 'Cause soon towards me from the East Came Wilson and his men on multi-beasts Well it seems he didn't like my face And I quickly learned that Prussia was an evil place They tied me to a chair with a giant clip And held a piece of paper to my tender nip(ple) Then they tossed the chair in a tiny shack And told me not to worry 'cause they'd soon be back But I loosened up the binds where my hands were lashed And ran towards the cove where my boat was stashed Singing "Oh Wilson, someday I'll kill you 'til you die Oh Wilson, Punch you in the Eye" When Wilson knew that I was loose I'd surely be subjected to some real abuse Maybe end up hanging from the nearest tree So angrily I paddled to the open sea But the sea was eager to beat me back And the waves grew huge and deadly black And the gray clouds rumbled over my head And I feared in my heart that I'd soon be dead When the morning came and the storm had passed And the dismal fog began at last To open up before my eyes And there I saw to my surprise Chains and specks of islands curved Where palm trees dipped and seagulls swerved And I parked my kayak on a stone And yelled across the ocean to his evil throne I said "Oh Wilson, someday I'll kill you 'til you die Oh Wilson, Punch you in the Eye Wilson, kill you 'til you die Oh Wilson, Punch you in the Eye" |

Remember all the days in the pond
Catchin' wild trout till the break of dawn Now that you've become a man, looking very mean Got a nice shiny sports car, keep it very clean Don't ask him what it was, tell him what it is (2x) Sing the song now: Ya mar, ya mar, ya mar, ya mar, ya mar, ya mar, ya mar, I got an oh kee pah She used to be a vampire child, walkin' in the yard Now that she's become a woman, lookin' very proud You used to wear a piece of cloth tied around your head Now she looks so good, wanna love you dead Don't ask her what it was, tell her what it is (2x) Sing the song now: Ya mar, ya mar, ya mar, ya mar, ya mar, ya mar, ya mar, you no good pah |

Sunrise over the turquoise mountains
Messenger birds in sight They came up through the valley Both sides at a time Through the cold steady rain Raid! I bend down Poke a double decker on a llama Taboot Llama, taboot taboot Trigger a blastoplast, ramshackle laker recedes I start to run It was the loudest thing I'd ever heard And I knew my time had come To enter the delta Leave it on press Depress, depress Llama, taboot, taboot Leave it on press Depress, depress Llama, taboot, taboot Leave it on press Depress, depress Llama, taboot, taboot Leave it on press Depress, depress Llama, taboot, taboot Leave it on press Depress, depress Llama, taboot, taboot Leave it on press Depress, depress Llama, taboot, taboot Llama, taboot, taboot Llama, taboot, taboot Taboot, taboot Taboot, taboot Taboot |

In the morning I pack up my gear
and toss it in my carryall Run the wide load to the lip and watch the big core crack and glow In the evening I undo my belt Split open and melt I wake up on my stomach with my face between my hands and crawl along the floor toward the doorway Jumping to my feet I try to put myself together but I feel it in my knees and the room begins to spin and I slip and bump my head and raise a welt Split open and melt We breathe deep in a steam dream and plunge below the water line down, down, down between beams to the gloom room among the seaweed and the slime down, down, down Melt |
