This could be the saddest dusk
I've ever seen. Turn to a miracle High alive. My mind is racing As it always will My hand is tired my heart aches I'm half a world away here My head sworn to go it alone And hold it along, haul it along And hold it. Go it alone Hold it along and hold, hold. This lonely deep sit hollow I'm half a world Half the world away My shoes are gone, my life spent I had too much to drink. I didn't think And I didn't think of you I guess that's all I needed To go it alone and hold it along Haul it along and hold it Blackbirds backwards forwards and fall and hold hold. Oh this lonely world is wasted Pathetic eyes high alive Blind to the tide that turns the sea This storm it came up strong It s the trees And blew away our fear I couldn't even hear To go it alone and hold it along Haul it along and hold it To go it alone and hold it along Haul it along To go it alone and hold it along Haul it along and hold it Blackbirds backwards forwards and fall and hold, hold. And this could be the saddest dusk I've ever seen Turn to a miracle High alive. My mind is racing As it always will My hands tired my heart aches I'm half a world away and go |

I see your money on the floor I felt the pocket change.
Though all the feelings that broke through that door Just didn't seem to be too real. The yard is nothing but a fence the sun just hurts my eyes. Somewhere it must be time for penitence. Gardening at night is never where. Gardening at night. Gardening at night. Gardening at night. The neighbors go to bed at ten. Call the prayer line for a change. The charge is changing every month. They said it couldn't be arranged. We ankled up the garbage sound, but they were busy in the rows. We fell up, not to see the sun, gardening at night just didn't grow. I see your money on the floor, I felt the pocket change. Though all the feelings that broke through that door Just didn't seem to be too real. Gardening at night. Gardening at night. Gardening at night Your sister said that you're too young. They should know they've been there twice. The call was two and fifty one. They said it couldn't be arranged. I see your money on the floor, I felt the pocket change. Though all the feelings that broke through that door Just didn't seem to be too real.

Looking at your watch a third time waiting in the station for a bus
Going to a place that's far, so far away and if that's not enough Going where nobody says hello, they don't talk to anybody they don't know You'll wind up in some factory that's full time filth and nowhere left to go Walk home to an empty house, sit around all by yourself I know it might sound strange, but I believe You'll be coming back before too long (Chorus) Don't go back to Rockville, don't go back to Rockville, don't go back to Rockville And waste another year At night I drink myself to sleep and pretend I don't care if you're not here with me 'Cause it's so much easier to handle All my problems if I'm too far out to sea But something better happen soon Or it's gonna be too late to bring you back (Chorus) It's not as though I really need you If you were here I'd only bleed you But everybody else in town only wants to bring you down and That's not how it ought to be I know it might sound strange, but I believe You'll be coming back before too long (Chorus: Repeat 2X) |

A handshake is worthy if it's all that you've got. Metal shoes on wood push through our back There's a splinter in your eye and it reads "REACT" They shifted the statues for harboring ghosts. Reddened their necks, collared their clothes. Then we danced the dance till the menace got out. She gathered the corners and called it her gown.

I waited for your call These rivers of suggestion are driving me away The ocean sang, the conversation's dimmed Go build yourself another dream, this choice isn't mine |

Come on aboard, I promise you you won't hurt the horse
We treat him well, we feed him well. There's lots of room for you on the bandwagon, The road may be rough, the weather may forget us But won't we all parade around and sing our songs, A magic kingdom, open-armed Greet us hello, bravo, name in lights Passing on the word to fellow passengers and players, passing in, Until you're tired looking at all the flags And all the banners waving This is some parade, yesiree Bob. Could we have known? Yesiree Bob, could we have known? Look at all the flags and all the banners waving. Open up our arms, a magic kingdom, open-armed and greet us all Come on aboard I promise you you won't hurt the horse We treat him well, we feed him well There's lots of room for you on the bandwagon The road may be rough, the weather may forget us But won't we all parade around and sing our songs and wave our flags.

And the train conductor says "Take a break Driver 8, Driver 8 take a break We've been on this shift too long" And the train conductor says "Take a break Driver 8, Driver 8 take a break We can reach our destination, but we're still a ways away" I saw a treehouse on the outskirts of the farm. The power lines have floaters so the airplanes won't get snagged. Bells are ringing through the town again, Children look up, all they hear is sky-blue, bells ringing And the train conductor says "Take a break Driver 8, Driver 8 take a break We can reach our destination, but we're still a ways away" Way to shield the hated heat. Way to put myself to sleep. Way to shield the hated heat. Way to put myself, my children to sleep. He piloted this song in a plane like that one. She is selling faith on the Go Tell crusade.

Look at that building, look at this man Haloed and whitewashed gone to find a cheaper hand He'll offer a pound, offer a pound. Green grow the rushes go. Green grow the rushes go Green grow the rushes go The compass points the workers home Pay for your freedom, find another gate Guilt by associate, the rushes wilted a long time ago Guilty as you go. Stay off that highway, word is it's not so safe The grasses that hide the greenback the amber waves of gain again The amber waves of gain. Green grow the rushes go. Green grow the rushes go.

Courage built a bridge, jealous tore it down At least it's something you've left behind like Kohoutek, you were gone. We sat in the garden, we stood on the porch I won't deny myself, we never talked She wore bangles, she wore bells on her toes and she jumped like a fish Like a flyin' friend, you were gone like Kohoutek, can't forget that Fever built a bridge, reason tore it down If I am one to follow.. who will stand alone?

Upon the string that held the line of trees Behind the house he lived in He was reared to give respect But somewhere down the line he chose To whistle as the wind blows Whistle as the wind blows, with me He had a dream one night That the tree had lost its middle So he built a trunk of chicken wire To try to hold it up But the wire, the wire turned to lizard skin And when he climbed inside There wasn't even time to say Goodbye to Wendell Gee So whistle as the wind blows Whistle as the wind blows, with me If the wind were colors And if the air could speak Then whistle as the wind blows Whistle as the wind blows |

Sometimes I feel so sad Sometimes I feel just about everything Lately I'm just feeling bad Lately I'm just feeling bad Linger on your pale blue eyes Linger on your pale blue eyes I thought of you as my mountain top I thought of you as my peak I thought of you as just about everything I had but couldn't keep I had but couldn't keep Linger on your pale blue eyes Linger on your pale blue eyes Linger on your pale blue eyes Linger on your pale blue eyes Linger on your pale blue eyes Linger on your pale blue eyes |

Swan, swan, hummingbird
Hurrah, we are all free now What noisy cats are we Girl and dog he bore his cross Swan, swan, hummingbird Hurrah, we are all free now A long, low time ago, people talk to me Johnny Reb what's the price of fans? Forty a piece or three for one dollar? Hey captain don't you want to buy Some bone chains and toothpicks? Night wings, her hair chains, Here's your wooden greenback, sing Wooden beams and dovetail sweep I struck that picture ninety times, I walked that path a hundred ninety, Long, low time ago, people talk to me A pistol hot cup of rhyme The whiskey is water, the water is wine Marching feet, Johnny Reb, what's the price of heroes? Six and one half dozen the other, Tell that to the captain's mother, Hey captain don't you want to buy, Some bone chains and toothpicks? Night wings, her hair chains Swan, swan, hummingbird Hurrah, we are all free now What noisy cats are we Long, low time ago, people talk to me A pistol hot cup of rhyme, The whiskey is water, the water is wine |

I took a picture that i'll have to send
People here are friendly and content People here are colorful and bright The flowers often bloom at night Amanita is the name The flowers cover everything There's something here i find hard to ignore There's something that i've never seen before Amanita is the name they cover over everything The flowers cover everything They cover over everything The flowers cover everything Don't look into the sun The flowers cover everything They cover over everything The flowers cover everything They cover over everything The flowers cover everything There's something that i've never seen before The flowers often bloom at night Amanita is the name they cover over everything |

Now i'm not feeding off you, i will rearrange your scales If i can, and i can March into the ocean, march into the sea I had a hat i put it down and it sunk, reached down, Yanked it up, slapped it on my head All the people gather Fly to carry each his burden We are young despite the years we are concern We are hope despite the times All of the sudden, these days Happy throngs, take this joy wherever, wherever.... I wish to meet each one of you And you, me, you, if i can and i can We have many things in common, name three (three, three, three) I had a hat and it sunk, reached down, Yanked it up, slapped it on my head All the people gather Fly to carry each his burden We are young despite the years we are concern We are hope despite the times All of the sudden, these days Happy throngs, take this joy wherever, wherever you go. Now i'm not feeding off you i will rearrange your scales If i can and i can I wish to eat each one of you and you, me, you I had a hat and it sunk, reached down, Yanked it up, slapped it on my head All the people gather Fly to carry each his burden We are young despite the years we are concern We are hope despite the times All of the sudden, these days Happy throngs, take this joy wherever, wherever you... Carry each his burden We are young despite the years we are concern We are hope despite the times All of the sudden, these days Happy throngs, take this joy wherever, wherever you go.

On the outside underneath the wall
All the money couldn't buy You're mistaken no one's standing there For the record no one tried Oh I try to What if we give it away? Overlooking with a hollow eye What's pretending is it right Eye for order a hand for what's in line Couldn't follow couldn't write And our life is fine here Stitch it on your tie here There's the trailer Tom A year has come and gone Were not moving was it right Take the order sew it on your tie We couldn't follow couldn't try ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By MILLS, MIKE / BERRY, WILLIAM / BUCK, PETER / STIPE, MICHAEL <i>Lyrics © Warner/Chappell Music, Inc.</i> |

hey're going wild, the call came in
At early morning pre-dawn, then the followers of chaos out of control They're numbering the monkeys The monkeys and the monkeys The followers of chaos out of control they're meeting at the monument The call came in the monument To liberty and honor under the honor roll they've gathered up the cages the cages and courageous The followers of chaos out of control disturbance at the heron house A stampede at the monument To liberty and honor under the honor roll The gathering of grunts and greens Cogs and grunts and hirelings A meeting of a mean idea to hold "when feeding time has come and gone They'll lose the heart and head for home Try to tell us something we don't know Everyone allowed, everyone allowed |

That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes, An aeroplane - lenny bruce is not afraid. Eye of a hurricane, Listen to yourself churn - world serves its own needs, Don't misserve your own needs. Feed it up a knock, speed, Grunt no, strength no. Ladder structure clatter with fear of height, Down height. Wire in a fire, represent the seven games in a Government for hire and a combat site. Left her, wasn't coming in A hurry with the furies breathing down your neck. Team by team reporters baffled, trump, tethered crop. Look at that low plane! Fine then. Uh oh, overflow, population, Common group, but it'll do. Save yourself, serve yourself. World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed. Tell me with the rapture and the reverent in the right - right. You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, Feeling pretty psyched. It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it and i feel fine. Six o'clock - tv hour. Don't get caught in foreign tower. Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn. Lock him in uniform and book burning, blood letting. Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate. Light a candle, Light a motive. Step down, step down. Watch a heel crush, crush. Uh oh, this means no fear - cavalier. Renegade and steer clear! A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies. Offer me solutions, Offer me alternatives and i decline. It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it and i feel fine. The other night i tripped a nice continental drift divide. Mount st. Edelite. Leonard bernstein. Leonid breshnev, Lenny bruce and lester bangs. Birthday party, cheesecake, Jelly bean, boom! You symbiotic, patriotic, slam, but neck, right? Right. It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it. It's the end of the world as we know it and i feel fine...fine... (it's time i had some time alone) |

A thumbnail sketch, a jeweler's stone
A mean idea to call my own Old man don't lay so still you're not yet young There's time to teach, point to point, Point observation, children carry reservations Standing on the shoulders of giants leaves me cold, leaves me cold. A mean idea to call my own, a hundred million birds fly Singer sing me a given, singer sing me a song Standing on the shoulders of giants everybody's looking on Old don't lay so still you're not yet young, There's time to teach, point to point, Point observation, children carry reservations. Standing on the shoulders of giants leaves me cold A mean idea to call my own, a hundred million birds fly away, away. I am king of all I see, my kingdom for a voice Old man don't lay so still, you're not yet young There's time to teach, point to point Point observation, children carry reservations Standing on the shoulders of giants leaves me cold, leaves me cold.
