And you may find yourself living in a shotgun shack And you may find yourself in another part of the world And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile And you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife And you may ask yourself-Well...How did I get here?
Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down Letting the days go by/water flowing underground Into the blue again/after the money's gone Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground.
And you may ask yourself How do I work this? And you may ask yourself Where is that large automobile? And you may tell yourself This is not my beautiful house! And you may tell yourself This is not my beautiful wife!
Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down Letting the days go by/water flowing underground Into the blue again/after the money's gone Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground.
Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was... Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was... Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...
Water dissolving...and water removing There is water at the bottom of the ocean Carry the water at the bottom of the ocean Remove the water at the bottom of the ocean!
Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down Letting the days go by/water flowing underground Into the blue again/in the silent water Under the rocks and stones/there is water underground.
Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down Letting the days go by/water flowing underground Into the blue again/after the money's gone Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground.
And you may ask yourself What is that beautiful house? And you may ask yourself Where does that highway go? And you may ask yourself Am I right?...Am I wrong? And you may tell yourself MY GOD!...WHAT HAVE I DONE?
Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down Letting the days go by/water flowing underground Into the blue again/in the silent water Under the rocks and stones/there is water underground.
Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down Letting the days go by/water flowing underground Into the blue again/after the money's gone Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground.
Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was... Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was... Same as it ever was...Same as it ever was...
And she was lying in the grass And she could hear the highway breathing And she could see a nearby factory She's making sure she is not dreaming See the lights of a neighbor's house Now she's starting to rise Take a minute to concentrate And she opens up her eyes
The world was moving and she was right there with it (and she was) The world was moving she was floating above it (and she was) and she was
And she was drifting through the backyard And she was taking off her dress And she was moving very slowly Rising up above the earth Moving into the universe Drifting this way and that Not touching ground at all Up above the yard
CHORUS
She was glad about it... no doubt about it She isn't sure where she's gone No time to think about what to tell them No time to think about what she's done And she was
And she was looking at herself And things were looking like a movie She had a pleasant elevation She's moving out in all directions
There's a word for it And words don't mean a thing There's name for it And names make all the difference in the world Some things can never be spoken Some things cannot be pronounced That word does not exist in any language It will never be uttered by a human mouth
Let X make a statement Let breath pass through those cracked lips That man was my hero And now that word has been taken from us Some things can never be spoken Some things cannot be pronounced That word does not exist in any language It will never be uttered by a human mouth
Give me back my name Give me back my name Something has been changed in my life Something has been changed in my life Something must be returned to us Something must me returned to us
A woman made a man A man he made a house And when they lay together Little creatures all come out
Well, I've seen sex and I think it's alright It makes those little creatures come to life I can laugh or I can turn away Well, I've seen sex and I think it's okay
We are creatures, creatures of love We are creatures, creatures of love From the sleep of reason, a life is born We are creatures, creatures of love
It's okay to be afraid When the blue sparks hit your brain We can love one another I've been told that it's okay
Doctor, doctor, tell me what I am Am I one of those human beings Well I can laugh or I can learn to think So help me now to find out what I feel
We are creatures, creatures of love We are creatures, creatures of love We've been here forever, before you were born We are creatures of love, We are creatures of love
A man can drive his car And a woman can be a boss I'm a monkey and a flower I'm everything at once
Well, a woman and a man can be together If they decide to they'll make little creatures Watch 'em now! Little creature of love With two arms and two legs From a moment of passion Now they cover the bed
We are creatures of love, we are creatures of love We are creatures, creatures of love We are creatures, creatures of love From the sleep of reason, a life is born We are creatures of love, we are creatures of love
Last time she jumped out the window, well, she only turned and smiled. You might think she would say something, but you'd have to wait a while.
Well the lady don't mind. No, no, no, the lady don't mind She just turns her head and disappears, I kinda like that style
Little boat that floats on a river, it's drifting through a haze She stops by whenever she wants to, well, there she goes again
Well, it's no trouble at all. No, no, no trouble at all Well, what she does is all right with me, and I kinda like that style
Come on. come on. I go up and down. I like this curious feeling. I know, I see. It's like make believe. Cover your ears so you can hear what I'm saying. I'm not lost but I don't know Where I am. I got a question. All right. All right. This is what we like. Who knows, who knows, What I'm thinking
She says love is not what she's after, and everyone knows. Each time she looks in the mirror, she lets her feelings show.
Well, the lady don't mind No, no, no, the lady don't mind. Well, what she says is all right by me, and I kinda like that style
Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Here we go again I don't know, I don't know, What I'm sayin'. Hey man. Hey man. I sure don't feel the same She likes to say what she's feeling Hey. Did I get a big surprise. I know you think so. Come on. Come on. She says anything. Who knows, who knows, what she's thinking.
Well, I know what it is But I don't know where it is Where it is Well, I know where it is But I don't know what it looks like What it looks like Well, I know what it looks like, But I don't know where she comes from Well, I know where she comes from, But I don't know what's her name.
(and she said) This is a perfect world I'm riding on an incline I'm staring in your face You'll photograph mine
And I've been walking, talking Believing the things that are true And I've been finding The difference between right and wrong...good and bad See me put things together Put them back where they belong Am I just like the others Have I always been singing the same song
CHORUS
Somebody said that it happens all over the world I do believe that it's true And the sun's coming up And we're doing all the things that we should Doesn't everbody here believe in the things we do?
(And she said) CHORUS
It's a strange situation What's wrong with you? Baby...baby...baby What you doing in my house? And it's all true There's nothing wrong with you (And I said) CHORUS
Mommy had. A little baby. There he is. Fast asleep. He's just. A little plaything. Why not. Wake him up? Cute. Cute. Little baby. Little pee pee. Little toes. Now he's comin' to me. Crawl across. The kitchen floor.
Baby, baby, please let me hold him I wanna make him stay up all night Sister, sister, he's just a plaything We wanna make him stay up all night Yeah we do
See him drink. From a bottle. See him eat. From a plate. Cute. Cute. As a button. Don't you wanna make him. Stay up late. And we're having fun. With no money. Little smile. On his face. Don't cha' love. The little baby. Don't you want to make him. Stay up late.
CHORUS
Here we go (all night long) Sister, sister (all night long) In the playpen...woo...(all night long) Little baby goes, ha! (all night long) I know you want to leave me...
Why don't. We pretend. There you go. Little man. Cute. Cute. Why not? Late at night. Wake him up.
CHORUS
Here we go (all night long) Sister, sister...woo... (with the television on) Little baby goes...woo! (all night long) Hey, hey, baby! (all night long) And he looks so cute (all night long) In his little red suit (all night long)
I...I am just a number I...hang on to what I got You...say what you want to I...I...I...I just try to stay alive I...put myself together People say, get away, somebody will turn you in Life, life without surrender Togetherness...ecstasy is what I need I can laugh, but I should cry When love and understanding are the ultimate crimes
(And I said) Walk it down. Talk it down. (oh, oh, oh) Sympathy. Luxury. Somebody will take you there. Walk it down. Talk it down. (oh, oh, oh) Sympathy. Luxury. Somebody will take you there.
She...says she remembers. Time...long time ago. We...belong together. I...I...I...I turn up the radio Lies, lies and propaganda I...gonna tell you what I need Life, life, without surrender Togetherness...ecstasy is what I need I got yours and you got mine And I can swim, but I should fly
CHORUS
Ain't no crime to believe I took my money, I bet my life What you see is what you get But it sure ain't what we need.
I'm looking and I'm dreaming for the first time I'm inside and I'm outside at the same time And everything is real Do I like the way I feel?
When the world crashes in into my living room Television man made me what I am People like to put the television down But we are just good friends (I'm a) television man
I knew a girl, she was a macho man But it's alright, I wasn't fooled for long This is the place for me I'm the king, and you're the queen
CHORUS
Take a walk in the beautiful garden Everyone would like to say hello It doesn't matter what you say Come and take us away
The world crashes in, into my living room The world crashes in, into my living room The world crashes in, into my living room The world crashes in, into my living room
And we are still good friends...(Television man) I'm watching everything...(Television man) Television man...(Television man) I'm watching everything...(Television man) Television man...and I'm gonna say We are still good friends...and I'm trying to be Watchin' everything...and I gotta say We are still good friends...You know the way it is Television man...I've got what you need We are still good friends...I know the way you are Television man...I know what you're tryin' to be Watchin' everything...and I gotta say That's how the story ends.
WELL WE KNOW WHERE WE'RE GOIN' BUT WE DON'T KNOW WHERE WE'VE BEEN AND WE KNOW WHAT WE'RE KNOWIN' BUT WE CAN'T SAY WHAT WE'VE SEEN AND WE'RE NOT LITTLE CHILDREN AND WE KNOW WHAT WE WANT AND THE FUTURE IS CERTAIN GIVE US TIME TO WORK IT OUT
We're on a road to nowhere Come on inside Takin' that ride to nowhere We'll take that ride
I'm feelin' okay this mornin' And you know, We're on the road to paradise Here we go, here we go
CHORUS
Maybe you wonder where you are I don't care Here is where time is on our side Take you there...take you there
We're on a road to nowhere We're on a road to nowhere We're on a road to nowhere
There's a city in my mind Come along and take that ride and it's all right, baby, it's all right
And it's very far away But it's growing day by day And it's all right, baby, it's all right
They can tell you what to do But they'll make a fool of you And it's all right, baby, it's all right
I was born in a house with the television always on Guess I grew up too fast And I forgot my name We're in cities at night and we got time on our hands. So leave the driving to us. And it's the real thing.
And you're rolling In the blender With me. And I can love you Like a color TV.

In 1950 when I was born Papa couldn't afford to buy us much He said be proud of what you are There's something special 'bout people like us
People like us (Who will answer the telephone) People like us (Growing as big as a house) People like us (Gonna make it because)
We don't want freedom We don't want justice We just want someone to love. Someone to love.u I was called upon in the 3rd grade class I gave my answer and it caused a fuss I'm not the same as ev'ryone else And times were hard for people like us
People like us (Who will answer the telephone) People like us (Growing as big as a house) People like us (Gonna make it because)
What good is freedom? God laughs at people like us I see it coming Like coming down from above
The clouds roll by and the moon comes up How long must we live in the heat of the sun Millions of people are waitin' on love And this is a song about people like us
People like us (Who answe the telephone) People like us (Growing big as a house) People like us (Gonna make it because) We don't want freedom We don't want justice We just want someone to love.
Someone to love. Someone to love. Someone to love.
Now lemme tell you a story The devil he has a plan A bag a' bones in his pocket Got anything you want No dust and no rocks The whole thing is over All these beauties in solid motion All those beauties, gonna swallow you up
Hi hi hi hi hi, One time too many Too far to go I- We come to take you home
And when they split those atoms It's hotter than the sun Blood is a special substance They gonna pray for that man
So wake up young lovers The whole thing is over Watch but touch monkeys All that blood, gonna swallow you whole
Hi hi hi hi hi What's that? Who's driving? Where we goin'? Who knows? I- We come to take you home
How many people do you think I am Pretend I am somebody else You can pretend I'm and old millionaire A millionaire washing his hands Rattle the bones, dreams that stick out A medical chart on the wall Soft violence and hands touch your throat Ev'ryone wants to explode
And when your hands get dirty Nobody knows you at all Don't have a window to slip out of Lights on, nobody home
Click click- see ya later Beta beta- no time to rest Pika pika- risky business All that blood, will never cover that mess.
Hi hi hi hi hi So soft hard feelings What's that, who's driving No tricks lets go I- We come to take you home I- We come to take you home Hi hi hi hi hi etc.
