Well many years ago now I really can't be sure
That's when it all began then I heard that knock upon my door And the wolfman's brother The wolfman's brother Came down on me The telephone was ringing, that's when I handed it to Liz She said, "This isn't who it would be if it wasn't who it is" It's the wolfman's brother The wolfman's brother Comin' down on me So I might be on a side street or a stairway to the stars I hear the high pitched cavitation of propellers from afar It's the wolfman's brother The wolfman's brother The wolfman's brother The wolfman's brother The wolfman's brother The wolfman's brother Comin' down on me So with meaningless excitement and smooth atonal sound It's like a cross between a hurricane and a ship that's run aground It's the wolfman's brother The wolfman's brother The wolfman's brother The wolfman's brother The wolfman's brother The wolfman's brother Comin' down on - comin' down on me The wolfman's brother, the wolfman's brother Comin' down on me Surely took more than he gave (repeats |

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" |

I'm pulling the pavement from under my nails
I brush past a garden, dependent on whales The sloping companion I cast down the ash Yanked on my tunic and dangled my stash Zipping through the forest with the curdling fleas To grow with them spindles, the mutant I seize I capture the dread beast who falls to his knees And cries to his cohorts, asleep in the trees Smegma, dogmatagram, fishmarket stew Police in a corner, gunnin' for you Appletoast, bedheated, furblanket rat Laugh when they shoot you, say "Please don't do that" Control for smilers can't be bought The solar garlic starts to rot Was it for this my life I sought? Maybe so and maybe not (Maybe so and maybe not) Maybe so and maybe not (Maybe so and maybe not) Maybe so and maybe not (Maybe so and maybe not) Maybe so and maybe not (Maybe so and maybe not) Was it for this my life I sought?

The circus is the place for me with bears
and clowns and noise I love the shiny music that descends from overhead Gordon knew the moment when the stars all turned around But from that vantage point I frowned If life were easy and not so fast I wouldn't think about the past. I can't forget to turn the earth so both sides get their share of darkness and of light So now I wander over grounds of light and heat and sound and mist provoking dreams that don't exist A circus of light where dreams can take flight In the peacefulness dreaming dreams brings If life were easy and not so fast I wouldn't think about the past.... |

I feel I've never told you
the story of the ghost that I once knew and talked to of whom I'd never boast Cause this was my big secret how I get ahead and never have to worry I'd call him instead His answer came in actions He never spoke a word Or maybe I lay down the phone before he could be heard I somehow feel forsaken Like he had closed the door I guess I just stopped needing him as much as once before .. But maybe he's still with me the latch was left unhooked He's waiting in the wind and rain I simply haven't looked I feel I've never told you the story of the ghost ...... |

It's easy sometimes when you just coast along
But like it or not something always seems to go wrong Sometimes people build you up just so they can knock you down Sometimes they will have you there 'cause they need someone around Perhaps you'll receive invitations for tea or perhaps you will laugh and you will make them all smile Or maybe you'll join them 'cause it had to be Perhaps you'll forget you forgot for a while Birds of a feather are flocking outside like whippets they dance in a curly-queue dance of pulses and ringing and campfire chants of ritual drumming although at first glance you thought you could run but you won't take a chance it's not an experience if they can't bring someone along they hang on emotions they bottle inside they peck at the ground and they strut out of stride Birds of a feather are flocking outside |

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 |

Appendages flailing, you're running at me. Ferocious,
tenaciously clawing at me. The devious gelatin holding me fast. Miraculous now you let me move past. Over the wall rushing rivers of sleaze. The tips of stalactites incising my knee. A slipper, a sand dollar day at the shore. Nice evening at home that I dread even more. Would you please, Make clear to me, I'm peering out through your opacity. Though you rehearse, Tomorrow's verse, Forgive me if I don't sing in your key Look back on those days when my life was a haze. The gelatin lay on a truncated sleigh. Copernicus drank from a vessel that stank. The free masons crank to the overflow tank. Bane of the weasel, for biding his fun. Jump on the turnstile and watch me go 'round. Swim with the cactus and float with the stone. I try to convey what you strive to condone Would you please, Make clear to me, I'm peering out through your opacity. Though you rehearse, Tomorrow's verse, Forgive me if I don't sing in your key Would you please (In all that dust and stone) Make clear to me (And when you see me) Why nothing is the first thing that I see (Don't Go) And if you do (In all that dirt and stone) And I see you (And when you see me) Then you will be the nothing left for me (Don't Go) |

Come stumble my mirth beaten worker
I'm Jezmund the family berzerker I'm bought for the price of a flagon of rice The wind buffs the cabin You speak of your life Or more willingly Locust the Lurker Confuse what you can of the ending And revise your despise so impending 'Cause I soak on the wrath That you didn't quite mask I'm getting it clearly through alternate paths Or mixed in with the signal you're sending But who can unlearn all the facts that I've learned As I sat in their chairs and my synapses burned And the torture of chalk dust collects on my tongue Thoughts follow my vision and dance in the sun All my vasoconstrictors they come slowly undone Can't this wait till im old? Can't I live while I'm young? But no peace for Jezmund tonight I plug the distress tube up tight And watch what I say as it flutters away And all this emotion is kept harmless at bay Not to educate somebody's fright But who can unlearn all the facts that I've learned As I sat in their chairs and my synapses burned And the torture of chalk dust collects on my tongue Thoughts follow my vision and dance in the sun All my vasoconstrictors they come slowly undone Can't this wait till im old? Can't I live while I'm young? |

Oh, to be Prince Caspian afloat upon the waves
Oh, to be Prince Caspian afloat upon the waves Oh, to be Prince Caspian afloat upon the waves Oh, to be Prince Caspian, With nothing to return to but the demons in their caves Oh, to be Prince Caspian afloat upon the waves Oh, to be Prince Caspian afloat upon the waves Oh, to be Prince Caspian afloat upon the waves Oh, to be Prince Caspian, And the children in the fields all sowing seed and chaffing wheat Oh, to be Prince Caspian with stumps instead of feet Oh to be Prince Caspian Oh to be Prince Caspian Oh to be Prince Caspian |

Throughout the night when there's no direct light and a thin veil of clouds keeps the stars out of sight I can smell the colors outside on my lawn The moist green organic that my feet tread upon And the black oleander surrounded by blues I'm soon overwhelmed by olfactory hues Bouncing Around the Room The woman was a dream I had though rather hard to keep For when my eyes were watching hers, they closed, and I was still asleep. For when my hand was holding hers, she whispered words and I awoke And faintly bouncing around the room the echo of whomever spoke I awoke and faintly bouncing round the room the echo of whomever spoke. The place I saw was far beneath the surface of the sea My sight was poor but I was sure the sirens sang their songs for me They dance above me as I sink I see them through a crystal haze And hear them bouncing round the room the never ending coral maze That time and once again I'm bouncing around the room. |

i'll tell you about the driver who lives inside my head
starts me up and stops me and puts me into bed he opens up my mouth when it's time for me to talk fires up my legs when he wants me to walk keeps my eyes open most of the day adds to my memory the things that people say when he makes decisions i dont have to wait but sometimes it seems he's got to much on his plate like this morning when i woke up and he dressed me in this shirt that looks a little ragged where he drug me through the dirt i'm moving through this life and i'm thinking about the next and hoping when i get there i'll be better dressed keeps my eyes open for most of the day adds to my memory the things that people say when he makes decisions i dont have to wait i'll tell you about the driver who lives inside my head |

Time is me, and I should know
I knew this several months ago I knew more than I do now For I've been turned around somehow Relax, the world will spin beside itself and suck you in With threats and hopes beyond compare I change the landscape as I pass Meandering from sand to glass I suction there for one whole day Until the feeling goes away Relax, the world will spin beside itself and suck you in With threats and hopes beyond compare I don't need these orbits in my life Revolve and cycle through don't keep coming back for more I don't need this circular design Wheel and spin away from me you've been by here before I've lost my mind I've lost my way I'm bound to lose you wonder where I am Relax, the world will spin beside itself and suck you in With threats and hopes beyond compare I've lost my mind I've lost my way I'm bound to lose you wonder where I am I've lost my mind I've lost my way I'm bound to lose you wonder where I am I've lost my mind I've lost my way I'm bound to lose you wonder where I am.. |

would you still remember me For I must be traveling on now there's too many places I gotta see And if I stay here with you girl, things just wouldn't be the same For I'm as free as a bird now and this bird you cannot change and the bird you cannot change and the bird you cannot change Lord knows I can't change |
