Fill the sky with love
Fill the sky with love I wouldn't mind but she just turned up on the doorstep Wishful and ashen, slightly bedraggled Last time I saw her she was howling at the moon Roaming the forest, lupine and rabid Whoa is she wild? Does she see my inner child? But then she knows it's like a curse To find our chosen roles reversed To unify my universe To call me mellow If only I was half my age and she was older We'd live on ice-cream on Coney Island I though it's gravity that drags down my balloon She stays in orbit way after midnight Woah slip and slide Does she go all dewey-eyed? But then she knows it's like a curse To find our chosen roles reversed To unify my universe To call me mellow She'll dress down for us She'll break new ground for us Watching me cracking up She'll hang round fellas With all the groundswellers Driving me like a truck But then she knows it's like a curse To find our chosen roles reversed To unify my universe To call me mellow But then she knows it's like a curse To find our chosen roles reversed To unify my universe To call me mellow Fill the sky with love [Repeat: x3] |

High time we made a stand and shook up the views of the common man
And the lovetrain rides from coast to coast D.J.'s the man we love the most Could you be, could you be squeaky clean And smash any hope of democracry ? As the headline says you're free to choose There's egg on your face and mud on your shoes One of these days they're gonna call it the blues And anything is possible when you're Sowing the Seeds of Love Anything is possible - Sowing the Seeds of Love I spy tears in thier eyes They look to the skies for some kind of divine intervention Food goes to waste ! So nice to eat, so nice to taste Politician Grannie with your high ideals Have you no idea how the Majority feels ? So without love and a promise land We're fools to the rules of a Goverment plan Kick out the style ! Bring back the jam ! Anything... Sowing the Seeds The birds and the bees My girlfriend and me in love Feel the pain Talk about it If you're a worried man - then shout about it Open hearts - feel about it Open minds - think about it Everyone - read about it Everyone - scream about it ! Everyone Everyone - read about it, read about it Read in the books in the crannies and the nooks there are books to read ! (Mr. England Sowing the Seeds of Love) Time to eat all your words Swallow your pride Open your eyes High time we made a stand and shook up the views of the common man And the lovetrain rides from coast to coast Every minute of every hour - " I Love a Sunflower " And I believe in lovepower, Love power, LOVEPOWER !!! Sowing the Seeds An end to need And the Politics of Greed With love |

I believe that when the hurting and the pain has gone
We will be strong, Oh yes we will be strong And I believe that if I'm crying while I write these words Is it absurb ? Or am I being real I believe that if you knew just what these tears were for They would just pour like every drop of rain That's why I believe it is too late for anyone to believe I believe that if you thought for a moment, took your time You would not resign yourself to your fate And I believe that if it's written in the stars, that's fine I can't deny that I'm a Virgo too I believe that if your bristling while you hear this song I could be wrong or have I hit a nerve ? That's why I believe it is too late for anyone to believe I believe that maybe somewhere in the darkness In the nighttime, In the storm In the casino Casino spanish eyes I believe, no I can't believe that every time you hear a new born scream You just can't see the shaping of a life The shaping of a life |

Whatcha gonna choose the poison or the lines
Lived with crazy pain in all your life Something in your mind just tells you no Hope in conversation starts to flow Stuck inside a wheel, inside a wheel Wondering everyday is it all for real Blinking every time a cold wind blow Our love don't fill a mile in rose Danger remains Watcha gonna do when the old man reads you dry Step down from the plane and pluck the eye Slide in deeper closer to the bone Don't you just wish your heart was made of stone? Waxing like an old crack 45 Counting out the ways you could stay alive Placing all the banks and feel the stones My love won't leave her ways of foam And when you think it's all over It's not over, it's not over And when you think it's all over It's not over, it's not over And when you think it's all over It's not over, it's not over Who killed tangerine? The prettiest girl I've ever seen Who killed tangerine? Who killed tangerine? The prettiest girl I've ever seen Who killed tangerine? And when you think it's all over It's not over, it's not over And when you think it's all over It's not over, it's not over And when you think it's all over It's not over, it's not over |

Fill the sky with love
Fill the sky with love I wouldn't mind but she just turned up on the doorstep Wistfull and ashen, slightly bedraggled Last time I saw her she was howling at the moon Roaming the forest, lupine and rabid Woah, is she wild? Does she see my inner child? But then she knows it's like a curse To find our chosen roles reversed To unify my universe To call me mellow If I was only half my age and she was older We'd live on ice cream on Coney Island And though it's gravity that drags down my balloon She stays in orbit way after midnight Woah, slip and slide - does she go all dewey-eyed? But then she knows it's like a curse To find our chosen roles reversed To unify my universe To call me mellow She'll dress down for us She'll break new ground for us Watching me cracking up She'll hang round fellahs With all the ground swellers Driving me like a truck But then she knows it's like a curse To find our chosen roles reversed To unify my universe To call me mellow |

Tow the line Wake up your time is nearly over No more the supernova No action guaranteed Wake up you've had an operation Ideals above your station Too much reality Think about the wasted time spending Watching Mother Nature's knees bending Everybody loves a happy ending Wake up you're on your own agenda Give up the great pretender With baby eyes of green Wake up you're holding on to nothing You know you're only bluffing As dead as autumn leaves Think about the wasted time spending Watching Mother Nature's knees bending Everybody loves a happy ending Don't you just love a happy ending? Oh yeah well so do I And all your love will shine on everyone The darkness of the day A curse in every way You try to see the light But you don't know why Don't know why They tell you on the phone To give your God a bone And grow a set of wings like a butterfly The guardian at the gate Reminds you that you're late You try to take your time But you tow the line Tow the line To children of the world And daddy's little girl The grass is always green on the other side So stay and breathe new life Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up Wake up, wake up Everything is moving faster than you think (Wake up, wake up) Your pen is running out of ink (Wake up, wake up) Fill up your bath and kitchen sink (Wake up, wake up) They're really kicking up a stink (Wake up, wake up) You never found the missing link (Wake up, wake up) You should be happy in the pink (Wake up, wake up) You're in demand but out of sync (Wake up, wake up) A nod is as good as a wink (Wake up, wake up) Once more my dear friends to the brink All your love will shine on everyone |

With the best will in the world It's a thorn in your side Dazed, not a little confused Let the patient do the work They got nothing to lose I told you I'd hold you 'til the last days on earth Ties that are tested and tried Like the crushing of the waves We'll be lost in the tide Talk away the pain for the very last time Like an echo in a cave Let it die in your mind I told you I'd hold you 'Til the last days on earth If you should fall into these opened arms You would be blessed not just bemused Wake up their mind love is alonely world Where nothing on earth lies like a truth Ties that are tested and tried Like the crushing of the waves We'll be lost in the tide Talk away the pain for the very last time Like an echo in a cave Let it die in our mind I told you I'd hold you 'Til the last days on earth |

It's always the quiet ones
Who are stranger than fiction They hide under tables like a child What kind of chemistry is it? Leaden or golden? Nobody sees them driving us wild It's your life Don't just collide with the waves Oh look into her eyes You'll see such silent calling Nothing seems to matter in this life Wake up your majesty there are Thieves in the temple Picking the sunspots out of the sun Looking for symmetry in man Another dead Beatle Down through the path we see how they run It's your life Don't just collide with the ways Oh look into her eyes You'll see such silent calling Nothing seems to matter in this life Oh so many reasons why You hear the silence calling Nothing seems to matter in this life Oh salvation shine a light on a different world And carry out thoughts on golden rays |

This is a garden, this is a steeple
I hear the crowd before I ever see the people Yours for the making, and for the taking There is a power in the vacuum we are making You and I have a secret world And we can keep it unfurled And pay no attention to the cradle or the grave And when we're crossed, We can say that we're lost In the middle of nowhere think you'll like it a lot And if we're wrong and we end up alone We'll light a candle for their innocent bones You and I have a secret world And we can keep it unfurled And pay no attention to the cradle or the grave You and I have a secret world And we can keep it unfurled And pay no attention to the cradle or the grave And when we're crossed, We can say that we're lost In the middle of nowhere think you'll like it a lot And if we're wrong and we end up alone We'll light a candle for their innocent bones You and I have a secret world And we can keep it unfurled And pay no attention to the cradle or the grave And when we're crossed, We can say that we're lost In the middle of nowhere think you'll like it a lot And if we're wrong and we end up alone We'll light a candle for their innocent bones |

Bathe in another man's grave
In time we'll follow Save all your thoughts for these days Don't steal just borrow Well a high wire Is a dangerous game But a hard act to follow If I fly high like a moth to a flame Would you eyes be the size of sorrow? Pain, I can understand pain Sometimes you just swallow Say we can make it OK Don't steal just borrow With the high wire Is a dangerous game But a hard act to follow If I fly high like a moth to a flame Would your eyes be the size of sorrow? |

What you gonna choose the poison or the knife?
Lived with crazy paving all your life Something in her eyes just tells you no Hoping conversation starts to flow Stuck inside a wheel inside a wheel Wondering everyday is it all for real? Aching every time a cold wind blows My love don't fear the mighty rose Tangerine, Tangerine What you gonna do when the old man bleeds you dry Step down from the plane and pluck the eye Slide in deeper closer to the bone Don't you just wish your heart was made of stone Waxing like an old cracked forty-five Counting out the ways you can stay alive Placed in body bags and filled with stones My love won't bleed her waves are foam And when you think it's all over It's not over, it's not over Who killed Tangerine? Prettiest girl I've ever seen And when you think it's all over It's not over, it's not over |

Someone's left the TV on I don't suppose, no I don't suppose Someone's sleeping in my bed Someone's let the genie in I don't suppose, no I don't suppose You know who you are Who you are, who you are today Baby's gone and died again Taken by the tide again And it's no surprise She hates goodbyes Someone's folding paper planes Someone's on the line again Someone's crying at the sonnet Someone's hiding from someone I don't suppose, no I don't suppose You know who you are Who you are, who you are today |

There's only need
I love your need So much I'm losing me I cannot see the reason for the Pain With hungry joy I'll be your toy Just hoping you will play Without hope my body starts to fail Memories fade but the scars still linger Goodbye my friend Will I ever love again Memories fade but the scars still linger I cannot grow I cannot move I cannot fell my age The vice like grip of tension holds me fast Engulfed by you What can I do When History's my cage Look foward to a future in the past The more I talk The more I say The less you seem to hear I'm speechless in a most peculiar way Your mind is weak Your need is great And nothing is too dear For you to use to take the Pain away Memories Fade No don't pretend you can justify the end Memories fade but the scars still linger |

Let the telephone ring Sense of time is a powerful thing And we love to laugh Love to cry Half alive We love to Go slow when we're dancing for rain Dry skin flakes where there's ice in the vien And we love to cry Half alive Is this the start of the breakdown ? Scratch the earth Dig the burial ground Sense of time won't be easily found And ten out of ten For the ones who defend Pretend too Breakdown is a final demand ( We stand firm with our heads in our hands ) As we love to to cry Half alive Is this the start of the breakdown ? I can't understand you Is this the start of the breakdown ? |

It's a sad affair
When there's no one there He calls out in the night And it's so unfair At least it seems that way When you gave him his life And all this time he's been getting you down You ought to pick him up when there's no one around And convince him Just talk to him Cos he knows in his heart you won't be home soon He's an only child in an only room And he's dependant on you And it seems so strange That at the end of the day Making love can be so good But the Pain of birth What is it worth When it don't turn out the way it should |

Heaven comes to he who waits
But I know I'm getting nowhere And all the deeds of yesterday Have really helped to pave my way Though there's no one near me now How come everyone can touch me You see the torture on my brow Relates to neither here nor now Watch me bleed Bleed forever Although my face is straight, it lies My body feels the Pain and cries Here the table is not bare I am full but feeling empty For all the warmth it feels so cold For one so young I feel so old Watch me bleed Bleed forever It's not allowed to be unkind But still the hate lives in my mind I'll make no noise I'll hide my pain I'll close my eyes I won't complain I'll lie right back and take the blame And trie to tell myself I'm living And when it's all been said or done Where do I go ? Where do I run ? What's left of me or anyone when we've denied the hurting ? |

So those are my dreams
And these are my eyes Stand tall like a man Head strong like a horse! When it's all mixed up Better break it down (ooh-hoo...ooh-hoo) In the world of secrets In the world of sound (ooh-hoo) It's in the way you're always hiding from the light See for yourself you have been sitting on a time-bomb No revolution, maybe someone somewhere else Can show you something new about you and your inner song And all the love, and all the love in the world Won't stop the rain from falling, waste seeping underground (Break it down again) I want to break it down (Break it down again) Break it down again So those are my schemes And these are my plans Hot tips for the boys Fresh news from the force! When it's all mixed up Better break it down (ooh-hoo...ooh-hoo) In the world of silence In the world of sound (ooh-hoo...) "No sleep for dreaming" say the architects of life Big bouncing babies, bread and butter, can I have a slice? They make no mention of the beauty of decay Blue, yellow, pink umbrella, save it for a rainy day And all the love, and all the love in the world Won't stop the rain from falling, waste seeping underground (Break it down again) I want to break it down (Break it down again) Horsin' around Pray to the power Play to the crowd with your big hit sound And they won't simmer, won't simmer, won't simmer down Play to the crowd Play to the crowd Play... It's in the way you're always hiding from the light Fast off to heaven just like Moses on a motorbike No revolution, maybe someone somewhere else Can show you something new to help with the ups and downs (Break it down again) I want to break it down (Break it down again) Break it down again (Break it down again) Break it down again No more sleepy dreamin' No more building up, it is time to dissolve Break it down again No more sleepy dreamin' |

Here on the stage, the time has come
'Mid the strains of 'be my angel', of rockin' 2/4 Time may keep alive That old swan song That we've been playing forever, Too, time may be right to say 'good-bye'... My voice is aching, I'm tongue-tied, And the sounds we are making are so-o-o old... Goodnight song, played so wrong, Blame the crowd, they screamed so loud so long. It's an honest day; Take the best of me and then the rest let go... In every situation where there's tireless rage, Step outside the cage And let the real fool show. I should have stayed 'round to break the ice, I thought about it once or twice But nothing ever changes Unless there's some pain... And our Goodnight song, played so wrong, Blame the crowd, they screamed so loud so long, Goodnight song, played so wrong, Blame the crowd, they screamed so loud so-o-o long... |

I believe that when the hurting and the pain has gone
We will be strong, Oh yes we will be strong And I believe that if I'm crying while I write these words Is it absurb ? Or am I being real I believe that if you knew just what these tears were for They would just pour like every drop of rain That's why I believe it is too late for anyone to believe I believe that if you thought for a moment, took your time You would not resign yourself to your fate And I believe that if it's written in the stars, that's fine I can't deny that I'm a Virgo too I believe that if your bristling while you hear this song I could be wrong or have I hit a nerve ? That's why I believe it is too late for anyone to believe I believe that maybe somewhere in the darkness In the nighttime, In the storm In the casino Casino spanish eyes I believe, no I can't believe that every time you hear a new born scream You just can't see the shaping of a life The shaping of a life |

Chewed the bone down too low Got fed on tea and sympathy Blew the sail like the wind I wish you were my enemy I was humble for you What a fool I've been to have Laid so low for so long Into that void of silence Where we cry without sound Where tears roll down Where tears roll down And where your mother's violence Sent your soul underground Where tears roll down Where tears roll down Drew the blade way too slow Was shackled by your honesty Made a mess, I guess I have should have known That life was lust and liberty Not a chance mutation or the last temptation Laid so low for so long, so low Into that void of silence Where we cry without sound Where tears roll down Where tears roll down And where your mother's violence Sent your soul underground Where tears roll down Where tears roll down |

And the lovetrain rides from coast to coast D.J.'s the man we love the most Could you be, could you be squeaky clean And smash any hope of democracry ? As the headline says you're free to choose There's egg on your face and mud on your shoes One of these days they're gonna call it the blues And anything is possible when you're Sowing the Seeds of Love Anything is possible - Sowing the Seeds of Love I spy tears in thier eyes They look to the skies for some kind of divine intervention Food goes to waste ! So nice to eat, so nice to taste Politician Grannie with your high ideals Have you no idea how the Majority feels ? So without love and a promise land We're fools to the rules of a Goverment plan Kick out the style ! Bring back the jam ! Anything... Sowing the Seeds The birds and the bees My girlfriend and me in love Feel the pain Talk about it If you're a worried man - then shout about it Open hearts - feel about it Open minds - think about it Everyone - read about it Everyone - scream about it ! Everyone Everyone - read about it, read about it Read in the books in the crannies and the nooks there are books to read ! (Mr. England Sowing the Seeds of Love) Time to eat all your words Swallow your pride Open your eyes High time we made a stand and shook up the views of the common man And the lovetrain rides from coast to coast Every minute of every hour - " I Love a Sunflower " And I believe in lovepower, Love power, LOVEPOWER !!! Sowing the Seeds An end to need And the Politics of Greed With love |

Money can't change the way you feel
Smoke stains on your fingertips Made for life is no big deal When there's something behind you that just doesn't fit And I can't stop thinking Always in the past No, no, I just can't stop thinking Always in the past It was always in Smoke screens up at the break of day Boy you must had a lonely night And did your dreams reveal God's plan? Did heaven say you're gonna make it allright And I can't stop thinking Always in the past No, no, I just can't stop thinking Always in the past It was always in Walk those streets Paved with gold You and I we are one and the same We've got a whole lot of soul Dance those steps Of the ancient plague You could sharpen knives on the famous lives That were never saved I just can't stop thinking Always in the past No, no, I just can't stop thinking Always in the past It was always in I can't stop thinking Always in the past No, no, I just can't stop thinking Always in the past It was always in |

Heard every word that was said that night
When the light of the world put the world to right Well here's to the boys back in 628 Where an ear to the wall was a twist of fate I will shine a blinding light Through those hearts as black as night Sticks and stones may break my bones But as least the seeds of love will be sown Now once in awhile when I feel no shame I get down on my knees and I pray for rain And though the breeze blows gently while I state my case There'll be certain men waiting just to scratch my face Hand on my heart I will make a stand For the life and the times of the mirrorman In my head there is a mirror When I've been bad, I've been wrong Food for the saints that are quick to judge me Hope for a Badman This is the Badman's Song Guilt in the frame of the looking-glass Puts a shine on the mind where reflections pass Where the jigsaw pieces of a broken man Try and fit themselves together again Lies in disguise in the name of trust Put your head in the sand it will turn to dust ! What's your problem ? What's your curse ? Won't it make the matter worse ? In my head... And they say " Faith can move move mountains Fire can cleanse your soul " Faith can move mountains But mind over matter won't you stop all your chatter - No ! I heard every word that was said that night When the light of the world put the world to right When I hear soft whispers at the break of day (I'm in trouble every step of the way) Sweet talking boys who can do no wrong When the stories are tall as the day is long With such a thin drawn between friend and foe Lord help me now and bless my soul ! Look at yourself - See how you lie Your hands start shaking and you don't know why Look at yourself - See how you lie Your hands start shaking and you don't know why Well there's food for the saints that are quick to judge me Hope for a Badman... |

You walked in to the room
I just had to laugh The face you wore was cool You were a photograph When it's all too late It's all too late I did not have the time I did not have the nerve To ask you how you feel Is this what you deserve When it's all too la |

After the wash
Before the fire I will decay Melt in your arms As the day hits the night We will sit by candlelight We will laugh We will sing When the saints go marching in A for a heart B for a brain Insects and grass Are all that remain When the light from above Burns a hole straight through our love We will laugh We will sing When the saints go marching in And we will carry war no more All our love and all our of pain Will be but a tune The Sun and the Moon The wind and the rain Hand in hand we'll do and die Listening to the band that made us cry We'll have nothing to lose We'll have nothing to gain Just to stay this real life situation For one last refrain As the day hits the night We will sit by candlelight We will laugh We will sing When the saints go marching in And we will carry war no more |

I wanted to be with you alone and talk about the weather
But traditions I can trace against the child in your face Won't escape my attention. You keep your distance with a system of touch and gentle persuasion. I'm lost in admiration could I need you this much? Oh. you're wasting my time you're just just just wasting time Something happens and I'm head over heels I never find out till I'm head over heels. Something happens and I'm head over heels. Ah don't take my heart don't break my heart Don't don't don't throw it away throw it away throw it away. I made a fire and watching it bum thought of your future With one foot in the past now just how long will it last No no no have you no ambition? My mother and my brothers used to breathing clean air And dreaming I'm a doctor. It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand oh I feel so. Something happens and I'm head over heels . . . And this is my four leaf clover I'm on the line one open mind This is my four leaf clover. |

I believe that when the hurting and the pain has gone
We will be strong, Oh yes we will be strong And I believe that if I'm crying while I write these words Is it absurb ? Or am I being real I believe that if you knew just what these tears were for They would just pour like every drop of rain That's why I believe it is too late for anyone to believe I believe that if you thought for a moment, took your time You would not resign yourself to your fate And I believe that if it's written in the stars, that's fine I can't deny that I'm a Virgo too I believe that if your bristling while you hear this song I could be wrong or have I hit a nerve ? That's why I believe it is too late for anyone to believe I believe that maybe somewhere in the darkness In the nighttime, In the storm In the casino Casino spanish eyes I believe, no I can't believe that every time you hear a new born scream You just can't see the shaping of a life The shaping of a life |

Say what you want
Say what you will 'Cos I find you think what makes it easier And lies spread on lies We don't care Belief is our relief We don't care |

I dream of heaven

So nice to eat, so nice to taste Politician Grannie with your high ideals Have you no idea how the Majority feels ? So without love and a promise land We're fools to the rules of a Goverment plan Kick out the style ! Bring back the jam ! Bring back the jam ! My flame is heart, My baby do as she please What good is living, when you live in disease Johnny Panic Johnny Panic and The Bible Of Dreams I dream of heaven, it's a heavenly place Why fall in love? when you can fall from grace With Johnny Panic Johnny Panic and The Bible Of Dreams I dream of heaven I dream of heaven I dream of heaven, yeah |

There's only need
I love your need So much I'm losing me I cannot see the reason for the Pain With hungry joy I'll be your toy Just hoping you will play Without hope my body starts to fail Memories fade but the scars still linger Goodbye my friend Will I ever love again Memories fade but the scars still linger I cannot grow I cannot move I cannot fell my age The vice like grip of tension holds me fast Engulfed by you What can I do When History's my cage Look foward to a future in the past The more I talk The more I say The less you seem to hear I'm speechless in a most peculiar way Your mind is weak Your need is great And nothing is too dear For you to use to take the Pain away Memories Fade No don't pretend you can justify the end Memories fade but the scars still linger |
