from Jerry Harrison - The Red And The Black (1981)
I'm watching TV a Saturday night
What do I see But a middleweight boxing fight A right spar here, a left hook there Two in one combination A standard fare One fighter he tries the Ali shuffle Guess I'll change the channel 'Cause it's just another scuffle It reminds me of me and you It reminds me of what we used to do TV rerun watching James Dean Red jacket on, he looks like Martin Sheen I keep on thinking 'bout Natalie Wood She sure was looking awfully good That rebel may have looked so cool Heart's aflutter, but don't be fooled 'Cause in the end he still lost his fight Tough luck, sonny, life's not nice It reminds me of me and you It reminds me of what we used to do It reminds me of high school Reminds me of five years of doing nothing Reminds me of five years without loving Yeah I didn't blame anyone For what happened to me Full responsibility, you see If I came up, I went down I was fooled and I fooled around You are the one that I'm after And you are the one, no disaster And you are the one I desire And you are the one that I require Tonight, oh honey, tonight That's right, honey, tonight No more reruns Just a static on my channel Test pattern light Lights my room like a candle A time between the days Slips in like a vandal If I blink or tire I'll miss life's gamble That's the time that I remember you And that's the time that I think of you And that's the time I remember what we used to do And that's the time I think of you But tonight you are the one I'm after You are the one, no more disasters You are the one I desire And you are the one I require Tonight, oh honey, tonight That's right, tonight, baby, tonight You are the one that I'm after And you are the one, no more disasters You are the one I desire And you are the one that I require Tonight, oh honey, tonight Oh honey, that's right Tonight, baby, that's right... |

I'm mad...and that's a fact
I found out...animals don't help Animal think...they're pretty smart Shit on the ground...see in the dark. They wander around like a crazy dog Make a mistake in the parking lot Always bumping into things Always let you down down down down. They're never there when you need them They never come when you call them They're never there when you need them The never come when you call them down down down down. I know the animals...are laughing at us They don't even know...what a joke is I won't follow...animal's advice I don't care...if they're laughing at us. They're never there when you need them They never come when you call them They're never there when you need them The never come when you call them down down down down. They say they don't need money They're living on nuts and berries They say animals don't worry You know animals are hairy? They think they know what's best They're making a fool of us They ought to be more careful They're setting a bad example They have untroubled lives They think everything's nice They like to laugh at people They're setting a bad example (go ahead) laugh at me. |

Think of London, a small city
It's dark, dark in the daytime The people sleep, sleep in the daytime If they want to, if they want to I'm checking them out I'm checking them out I got it figured out I got it figured out There's good points and bad points But it all works out I'm a little freaked out Find a city Find myself a city to live in. There are a lot of rich people in Birmingham A lot of ghosts in a lot of houses Look over there!...A dry ice factory A good place to get some thinking done I'm checking them out I'm checking them out I got it figured out I got it figured out There's good points and bad points But it all works out I'm a little freaked out Find a city Find myself a city to live in. Did I forget to mention, to mention Memphis Home of Elvis and the ancient greeks Do I smell? I smell home cooking It's only the river, it's only the river. I'm checking them out I'm checking them out I got it figured out I got it figured out There's good points and bad points But it all works out I'm a little freaked out Find a city Find myself a city to live in. |

And all I see is little dots
Some are smeared and some are spots Feels like a murder but that's alright Somebody said there's too much light Pull down the shade and it's alright It'll be over in a minute or two. I'm charged up...Don't put me down Don't feel like talking...Don't mess around I feel mean...I feel O.K. I'm charged up...Electricity The boys are making a big mess This makes the girls all start to laugh I don't know what they're talking about The boys are worried, the girls are shocked They pick the sound and let it drop Nobody know what they're talking about I'm charged up...I'm kinda wooden I'm barely moving...I study motion I study myself...I fooled myself I'm charged up...It's pretty intense. I'm charged up...Don't put me down Don't feel like talking...Don't mess around I feel mean...I feel O.K. I'm charged up...Electricity. |

Electric guitar gets run over by a car on the highway
This is a crime against the state This is the meaning of life. To tune this electric guitar An electric guitar is brought in to a court of law The judge and the jury (twelve members of the jury) All listening to records This is a crime against the state This is the verdict they reach: Never listen to electric guitar Electric guitar is copies, the copy sounds better Call this the law of justice, call this freedom and liberty I thought I perjure myself, right infront of the jury! Is this a crime against the state? No! This is the verdict they reach: Someone controls electric guitar. |

Heard of a van that is loaded with weapons
Packed up and ready to go Heard of some grave sites out by the highway A place where nobody knows The sound of gunfire off in the distance I'm getting used to it now Lived in a brownstone, I lived in the ghetto I've lived all over this town This ain't no party, this ain't no disco This ain't no fooling around No time for dancing, or lovey dovey I ain't got time for that now Transmit the message to the receiver Hope for an answer some day I got three passports, couple of visas Don't even know my real name High on a hillside trucks are loading Everything's ready to roll I sleep in the daytime, I work in the nightime I might not ever get home This ain't no party, this ain't no disco This ain't no fooling around This ain't no mudd club, or C.B.G.B. I ain't got time for that now This ain't no party, this ain't no disco This ain't no fooling around No time for dancing, or lovey dovey I ain't got time for that now Heard about Houston? heard about Detroit? Heard about Pittsburgh, PA? You oughta know not to stand by the window Somebody might see you up there I got some groceries, some peanut butter To last a couple of days But I ain't got no speakers, ain't got no headphones Ain't got no records to play Why stay in college? why go to night school? Gonna be different this time? Can't write a letter, can't send a postcard I can't write nothing at all This ain't no party, this ain't no disco This ain't no fooling around I'd love you hold you, I'd like to kiss you I ain't got no time for that now Trouble in transit, got through the roadblock We blended in with the crowd We got computers, we're tapping phone lines I know that ain't allowed We dress like students, we dress like housewives Or in a suit and a tie I changed my hairstyle so many times now Don't know what I look like You make me shiver, I feel so tender We make a pretty good team Don't get exhausted, I'll do some driving You ought to get you some sleep Burned all my notebooks, what good are notebooks? They won't help me survive My chest is aching, burns like a furnace The burning keeps me alive |

No, you don't remember anything at all I'm sleeping, I'm flat on my back Never woke up, had no regrets There's a party in my mind And I hope it never stops There's a party up there all the time They'll party till they drop Other people can go home Everybody else can split I'll be here all the time I can never quit Take a walk through the land of shadows Take a walk through the peaceful meadows Don't look so disappointed It isn't what you hoped for, is it? There's a party in my mind And I hope it never stops I'm stuck here in this seat I might not stand up Other people can go home Other people may go split I'll be here all the time I can never quit Everything is very quiet Everyone has gone to sleep I'm wide awake on memories These memories can't wait These memories can't wait These memories can't wait These memories can't wait These memories can't wait These memories can't wait These memories can't wait |

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 CHORUS |

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 |

Here where you are standing
The dinosaurs did a dance The indians told a story Now it has come to pass The Indians had a legend The Spaniards lived for gold The white man came and killed them But they haven't really gone We live in the city of dreams We drive on the highway of fire Should we awake And find it gone Remember this, our favorite town From germany and Europe And Southern U.S.A. They made this little town here That we live in to this day The children of the white man Saw Indians on TV And heard about the legend How their city was a dream We live in the city of dreams We drive on the highway of fire Should we awake And find it gone Remember this, our favorite town The Civil War is over And World War One and Two If we can live together The dream it might come true Underneath the concrete The dream is still alive A hundred million lifetimes A world that never dies We live in the city of dreams We drive on the highway of fire Should we awake And find it gone Remember this, our favorite town |

I see the clouds that move across the sky
I see the wind that moves the clouds away It moves the clouds over my new building I've picked the building that I want to live in I smell the pine trees and the beeches in the woods I see the pine cones that fall by the highway That's the highway that goes to the building I've picked the building that I want to live in It's over there, it's over there My building has every convenience It's gonna make life easy for me It's gonna be easy to get things done I will relax along with my loved ones Loved ones, loved ones visit the building Take the highway, park and come up and see me I'll be working, working, but if you come visit I'll put down what I'm doing, my friends are important Don't you worry 'bout me I wouldn't worry about me Don't you worry 'bout me Don't you worry 'bout me I see the states across this big nation I see the laws made in Washington, D.C. I think of the ones I consider my favorites I think of the people that are working for me Some civil servants are just like my loved ones They work so hard, and they try to be strong I'm a lucky guy to live in my building They all need buildings to help them along It's over there, it's over there My building has every convenience It's gonna make life easy for me It's gonna be easy to get things done I will relax along with my loved ones Loved ones, loved ones visit the building Take the highway, park and come up and see me I'll be working, working but if you come visit I'll put down what I'm doing, my friends are important I wouldn't worry 'bout me It wouldn't worry about me Don't you worry 'bout me Don't you worry 'bout me |

In a world
where people have problems In this world where decisions are a way of life Other people's problems they overwhelm my mind They say compassion is a virtue, but I don't have the time So many people...have their problems I'm not interested...in their problems I guess I've...experienced some problems But now I've...made some decisions Takes a lot of time to push away the nonsense Take my compassion...Push it as far as it goes My interest level's dropping, my interest level is dropping I've heard all I want to, I don't want to hear any more What are you, in love with your problems? I think you take it...a little too far It's...not so cool to have so many problems But don't expect me to explain your indecisions Go...talk to your analyst, isn't that what they're paid for You walk, you talk...You still function like you used to It's not a question...Of your personality or style Be a little more selfish, it might do you some good In a world where people have problems In this world where decisions are a way of life Other people's problems, they overwhelm my mind They say compassion is a virtue, but I don't have the time (Here we go again) |

Jump back, sit back, get back, relax It's ok I've called in sick I won't go to Work today I'd rather be with the One I love I neglect my duties, I be in trouble but I've been to college, I've been to school I've met the people that you read about in books Here come a riddle, here come a clue If you were really smart you'd know what to do when I say Jet pilot gone out of control, ship captain on the ground Stock broker make a bad investment when love has come to town Where, where is my common sense? How...did I get in a jam like this? Believe, I believe in mystery Love, love love love is simple as one-two-three Here come a riddle, here come a clue If you were really smart, you'd know what to do when I say Why am I going out of my head, whenever you're around? The answer is obvious, love has come to town |

I'm painting, I'm painting again.
I'm painting, I'm painting again. I'm cleaning, I'm cleaning again. I'm cleaning, I'm cleaning my brain. Pretty soon now, I will be bitter. Pretty soon now, will be a quitter. Pretty soon now, I will be bitter. You can't see it 'til it's finished I don't have to prove...that I am creative! I don't' have to prove...that I am creative! All my pictures are confused And now I'm going to take me to you. |

Damn that television ... what a bad picture!
"Don't get upset, It's not a major disaster". "There's nothing on tonight", he said, "I don't know what's the matter"! "Nothing's ever on", she said, "so ... I don't know why you bother." We've heard this little scene, we've heard it many times. People fighting over little things and wasting precious time. They might be better off ... I thing ... the way it seems to me. Making up their own shows, which might be better than T.V. (CHORUS) Judy's in the bedroom, inventing situations. Bob is on the street today, scouting up locations. They've enlisted all their family. They've enlisted all their friends. It helped saved their relationship, And made it work again ... Their show gets real high ratings, they think they have a hit. There might even be a spinoff, but they're not sure 'bout that. If they ever watch T.V. again, it'd be too soon for them. Bob never yells about the picture now, he's having too much fun. (CHORUS) Judy's in the bedroom, inventing situations, Bob is on the street today, scouting up locations. They've enlisted all their family. They've enlisted all their friends. It helped save their relationship, And made it work again ... So think about this little scene; apply it to you life. If your work isn't what you love, then something isn't right. Just look at Bob and Judy; they're happy as can be, Inventinting situations, putting them on T.V. (CHORUS) Judy's in the bedroom, inventing situations. Dod is on the street today, scouting up locations. They've enlisting all their family. They've enlisted all their friends. It helped save the relationship, And made it work again ... |

...Pretty!
What is? Brand new? Well that's not the way I think of you. You'll touch me, in a minute; but that's not what I want to do. We are two strangers, We might never have met. We can talk forever, I understand what you said. But I'm...no in love. What does it take to fall in love? Do people really fall in love? ...Happy! Is there time for this? Is this responsibility? Girl time, boy time, is that the difference between me and you? I won't ask any questions, Who needs to make a new start? I choose to believe you, I said before that I can't. ...'Cause I'm not in love. What does it take to fall in love? Why would I want to fall in love? ...Feeling! Take it easy baby...Don't let your feelings get in the way. Some day, I believe, we can live in a world without love. I can answer your questions, If you won't twist what I say. Please respect my opinions, They will be respected some day. Because we don't need love. I believe that we don't need love. There'll come a day when we won't need love. |

I think that we can signify our love now,
Ooh girl, you can initiate an impulse of love. Stay hungry, stay hungry, stay hungry Move a muscle, move a muscle, move a muscle. Make a motion, make a motion, make a motion. Pull it tighter, pull it tighter, pull it tighter. Double beatin', double beatin', double beatin' Double beatin', double beatin', double beatin' Palpitation, palpitation, palpitation. Stay hungry, stay hungry, stay hungry. Here's that rhythm again. Here's my shoulder blade. Here's the sound I made. Here's the picture I saved. Here I am. |

I see the shapes,
I remember from maps. I see the shoreline. I see the whitecaps. A baseball diamond, nice weather down there. I see the school and the houses where the kids are. Places to park by the fac'tries and buildings. Restaunts and bar for later in the evening. Then we come to the farmlands, and the undeveloped areas. And I have learned how these things work together. I see the parkway that passes through them all. And I have learned how to look at these things and I say, I wouldn't live there if you paid me. I couldn't live like that, no siree! I couldn't do the things the way those people do. I couldn't live there if you paid me to. I guess it's healthy, I guess the air is clean. I guess those people have fun with their neighbors and friends. Look at that kitchen and all of that food. Look at them eat it' guess it tastes real good. They grow it in the farmlands And they take it to the stores They put it in the car trunk And they bring it back home And I say ... I say, I wouldn't live there if you paid me. I couldn't live like that, no siree! I couldn't do the things the way those people do. I wouldn't live there if you paid me to. I'm tired of looking out the windows of the airplane I'm tired of travelling, I want to be somewhere. It's not even worth talking About those people down there. Goo Goo Ga Ga Ga Goo Goo Ga Ga Ga |
