Oh, he's a lucky guy

Take the train Oh you have run as far as you can go They've tied your fingers to rails of stars Can you hear the whistle blow? There's is no one here to beat out your brains There's no one who'll make you cry If your parents kill you year by year Well here's the time to say goodbye And it's oh so bad from far away And it's always warm inside There's children there There's children there Who will touch your face? Who will fill your pockets? Avoid that tangled street And who will count the marbles there? And who will save your penny ring? Come and meet the angels born this day Sleep now the night is late Be still until this wayward bird lets go of heaven's gate |

There is a tree on allenford
I drive by it each day on my way to and from work And there are always flowers left there each day Left for a child who died there Or so that is what people say... But all I see Looks back at me Loved by someone, loved by someone Loved by someone, loved by someone And the golden thread of nature of this is Simply that we are a part of everything That will ever exist. To be loved is why we've come. Every drop of rain that fell or falls Is always falling On and on and on and on. Come into me And we'll always be Loved by someone, loved by someone Loved by someone, loved by someone There's nothing that has ever been That isn't loved By someone who waits To be loved again Loved by someone, loved by someone Loved by someone, loved by someone |

A monk with a hard on in a lavender robe
That scratches his thighs for the height that he strode As he follows a path filled with harried desire And mimics his footsteps and sets his prayers on fire Glad to have chosen that which left no choice To sing without loving in a solitary voice To observe with passion each careful denial The protrusions which give my life meaning for a while Sometimes I see you eating berries and weeds You're brushing your teeth with licorice seeds Standing too close, holding your clothes Smiling at God, the meaning of life grows No, no I'll never tell and I'll never know What candles you light after the show And I'll never tell and I'll never ask The meaning of life after mass |

For all that it cost him He never did complain The chicken-headed man Feathering the rain But the last bus is tired And everybody's gone The horses are waiting In the middle of the lawn Gone for the rodeo Gone from the tundra, gal It's after the fair Is it bleeding out of you? "Come into my trailer We'll toast a little bread Oh look, you've left a hole Where you laid on my bed" He said But you keep what you can keep When you dive into the deep There's year after frozen year That's where I saved you there Oh, away from the sky But everybody's gone now It's after the fair And the horses are painted With the waiting of the lawn You turn the carousel on When th elights have closed down And watch your ponies run Through the middle of town So there ya go, little gal, there ya go Gone from the tundra now It's after the fair That's where I ... Over the fences again And the vacuums in the hall And the planes up in the air That's where I hear you best Oh, away from the sky |

We're sitting out the storm Every lamplight in town Man don't know when he's got it his grace Till beat angels come and take her away, beat angels, beat angels Well I crossed my heart and beat angels were there, beat angels? |

The summer had inhaled and held its breath too long The winter looked the same as if it never had gone And through an open window where no curtain hung I saw you I saw you One begins to read between the pages of a book The shape of sleepy music and suddenly you're hooked Through the rain upon the trees that kisses on the run I saw you I saw you Comin' back to me You can't stay and live my way Scatter my love like leaves in the wind You always say that you won't go away But I know what it always has been It always has been A transparent dream beneath an occasional sigh Most of the time I just let it go by Now I wish it hadn't begun I saw you I saw you Comin' back to me Strolling the hills overlooking the shore I realize I've been here before The shadow in the mist could have been anyone But I saw you I saw you Comin' back to me Small things like reasons are put in a jar Whatever happened to wishes wished on a star Was it just something that I made up for fun I saw you I saw you Comin' back to me |

I'll remember you too clearly
But I'll survive another day Conversations to share When there's no one there I'll imagine what you'd say I'll see you in another life now, baby I'll free you in my dreams But when I reach across the galaxy I will miss your company Company I'll be looking for company Look and listen Through the years Someday you may hear me Still crying for company So now you're going off to live your life You say we'll meet each other now and then But we'll never be the same And I know I'll never have this chance again No, not like you So, I'll see you in another life now baby, I'll free you in my dreams But when I reach across the galaxy I will miss your company Company I'll be looking for company Look and listen Through the years Someday you may hear me Still crying for company |

So I'm down and so I'm out
So are many others So I feel like tryin' To hide my head 'Neath these covers Life is like the seasons After winter comes the spring So I'll sit and stay awhile And see what tomorrow brings I've been told and I believe That life is meant for livin' Even when my chips are low There's still some left for givin' I've been many places Maybe not as far as you So I think I'll stay awhile And see if some dreams come true There isn't much that I have learned Through all my foolish years Except that life just run in cycles First there's laughter, then those tears But I'll keep my head up high Although I'm kind of tired Oh I just up and left last week Friday I got fired You know it's almost funny Things can't get worse than now But I'll keep on tryin' to sing But please, just don't ask me how |

Downstairs at danny's all-star joint
They got a juke box that goes doyt-doyt The vice is nice, they stay in the back all day But when the nighttime comes, hey-hey There's this cat down there that makes a bad kinda soup I come around struttin' my luck in my shoop coupe Cecil gives me coffee And he won't never take my coin I say, " I got thirty dollars in my pocket! Whatchoo doin' ? " I holler, " Come on, Cecil, take a dollar! Come on, Cecil, take a ten! I've finally geared up into a whole buncha big ones And you're actin' like I'm down-shiftin' " He knows all the under-riders on the boulevard They got to barefoot cruise when it's forty-weight hard They look particularly dead-beat Permanently pale Cecil picks up his butcher knife Waves it at the jail The kid say, " I ain't got no dough, Joe, I just want some o.j " I said, " Don't look at me " ( Cuz he was lookin' my way ) Cecil wink upon him some juice and some green And the kid walks over and puts the quarter in the pinball machine And he says, " Come on, Cec, gimme a dollar Come on Cecil gimme five I'm in a half-way house on a one-way street And I'm a quarter past left alive " He can talk about your people in a wonderful way He can talk about your people 'til your hair turns grey |

There was a Joe
Leanin' on the back door A couple Jills with their eyes on a couple bills Their eyes was statin' They was waitin' To get their hands on some easy money They flipped a dime One said " well, I'll take heads this time" One stepped up One stepped back One loosened her shoulder strap She couldn't speak, Her knees got weak She could almost taste that easy money There was this old black cat Sittin' in a old black cadillac The Joe smelled sweet She curled up at her boyfriend's feet She said "I got a plan Listen, Sam, how'd ya like to make some easy money ? " He say, "yes! oh yes! Jus' tell me what you want me to do " She said, "Baby, you can trust me Baby, but you must be hidin' in my room At a quarter to two" Well, the cat told the boy "Come up to the room and play with my toy" But the Jill set the bait And she wasn't gonna sit around and wait But this guy was wise to all the lies And he flies out the door With the easy money Because there ain't no man Who got the money in his hand Who got any of that bread Bein' slow in the head The easier it looks The hotter it hooks There ain't no such thing as easy money We say, "yes! oh yes!" Saturday night There was a terrible, terrible fight Between two dames who was losin' the same game It wasn't clear, But I hear somebody was lookin' for some easy money |

Down there by the river is a man
Whose born is twisted into shapes Unknown to the wicked and the wise And he bears the look of an animal Who's seen things no animal should ever see He has been driven beyond all towns And all the systems until now though it is Long past too far he keeps going Because it's a desert Because it's a desert We come to the river We'll walk away from all this now We come to the water We'll walk away from all this now She first saw him he was standing in the doorway Illuminated from behind by a light Though imaginary posses chased them To these distant adobes Standing on the cliffs today I thought I saw you below My shadow growing smaller It's a desert because Because it's a desert They'll be asking me about you forever I guess We come to the river We'll walk away from all this now We come to the water We'll walk away from all this now Long coats on the prairie Lying in the dust Who can I turn to ? Who can I trust ? Were you walking on the water ? Playing in the sun ? But the world is turning faster Than it did when I was young When I was young When I was young Oh, when I was young I was a wild, wild one |

Saving all my money all week long So I can go out driving with you Down on Hollywood Boulevard On friday night, dressed right I don't take no trouble smoke at the wall But I still have that leopard-skin hat That you gave me way back Before it was cool And they took it to school Here in the ghetto The ghetto of my mind Y aqui, the ghetto The ghetto of my mind Hey we wild it up, wild it up I like to dance with my rooner Cuz when we dance I feel like We are who we've meant to be He puts his arms around me I put my arms around him And I feel satisfied and free One night I tried my bandanna around his wrists And we started to sway and it felt so good And he said " looky here mamma, looky here I think I better just see you Safely out of the neighborhood" That is to say The ghetto The ghetto of my mind Y aqui, the ghetto The ghetto of my mind Hey we wild it up, wild it up Outside my window the noise is all I've got There are no stars in the sky Just the sirens and queens Breaking glass down in the parking lot That's the world where I live Sometimes I wonder, oh how can I go on ? But I know that the world you make inside your head That's the one you see around, that's what I said And the one you see Is the one you make Inside of the ghetto The ghetto of your mind Y aqui, the ghetto The ghetto of my mind Hey we wild it up, wild it up |

I won't grow up I don't wanna go to school Just to learn to be a puppet And recite a silly rule If growing up means it would be Beneath my dignity to climb a tree I won't grow up, won't grow up, won't grow up Not me. I won't grow up I don't wanna wear a tie Or a serious expression In the middle of July And if it means that I must prepare To shoulder burdens with a worried air I'll never grow up, won't grow up, never grow up So there Never gonna be a man I won't! Like to see somebody try And make me! Anyone who wants to try And make me turn into a man Catch me if you can I won't grow up I don't wanna wear a tie Or a serious expression To try to act just like a guy 'Cause growing up's awfuller than All of the awful things that's ever been I won't grow up, won't grow up, won't grow up Again Growing up's awfuller than All of the awful thing that's ever been I won't grow up, never grow up, won't grow up Again.

Cathedral bells were tolling And our hearts sang on, Was it the spell of Paris Or the April dawn? Who knows, if we shall meet again? But when the morning chimes ring sweet again: I'll be seeing you In all the old familiar places That this heart of mine embraces all day through: In that small cafe, The park across the way, The children's carousel, The chestnut trees, The wishing well. I'll be seeing you in every lovely summer's day, In everything that's light and gay, I'll always think of you that way I'll find you in the morning sun, And when the night is new, I'll be looking at the moon But I'll be seeing you. |

It must be love the sailor sails for Must be love that drives a bottle to the bottom of the ocean floor Because I imagine all kinds of wonderful water I would have you there wherever I'll go Way from the seventh sea, He brings the bottle back to me Oh, It Must Be Love Oh, It Must Be Love People look through evervthing thev see There's so many other things to be I have seen you walking in the rain I want to know whv vou were crying Baby, let me fix what's wrong... It must be love that fathoms the moonlight Must be love that shallovvs The deepest part of the night So you can show them vvith vour eye The things that make them cry, Because that Must Be Love It Must Be Love... And the way you are Must Be Love And the things vou Feel Oh, It Must Be Love, Oh, It Must Be Love Must Be Love |

It seems lately when I walk down the street There's something in my neighborhood It's getting stronger every day There's a rumor that lights up all of me And it whispers from the rooftops up above I must hold on or I'll fly away Oh, no, not the autumn leaves Lift you up like a flower in the cool night breeze My heart's just flying when he walks by Oh, but he's my inspiration Yes indeed my pride and joy Don't you say nothing bad about What's between me and my baby boy My mom has her point of view "You'll learn the hard way If that's what you're gonna do" My sister don't have much to say My girlfriend told me when I was young You'll know him the minute that he's there Oh can't you feel it coming in the air? Oh no, not a summer song Makes the night feel better When the day goes wrong My heart's just a singer when he walks by Oh no, not a summer night You forget about tomorrow Cause the world seems right There goes my baby walking by Oh, but he's my inspiration Yes indeed my pride and joy Don't say nothing bad about What's between me and my baby boy There goes my baby walking There goes my baby walking by ... |

A long stretch of headlights
Bends into I-9 Tiptoe into truck stops And sleepy diesel eyes Volcanoes rumble in the taxi And glow in the dark Camels in the driver's seat A slow, easy mark But you ran out of gas Down the road a piece Then the battery went dead And now the cable won't reach... It's your last chance To check under the hood Last chance She ain't soundin' too good, Your last chance To trust the man with the star You've found the last chance Texaco Well, he tried to be Standard He tries to be Mobil He tried living in a world And in a shell There was this block-busted blonde He loved her - free parts and labor But she broke down and died She threw all the rods he gave her But this one ain't fuel-injected Her plug's disconnected She gets scared and she stalls She just needs a man, that's all It's her last chance Her timing's all wrong Her last chance She can't idle this long Her last chance Turn her over and go Pullin' out of the last chance texaco The last chance |
