I don't mind a reasonable amount of trouble

And every time you get this close;
It makes me want to scream

In the home of the brave Jefferson turnin’ over in his grave

You say you love me;
And you're thinkin' of me,;
But you know you could be wrong.

She's a hypnotist collector

How long can I stay in this nowhere café

Wiggle 'til you're high, wiggle 'til you're higher,;
Wiggle 'til you vomit fire

Do you ever wonder just what God requires?;
You think He's just an errand boy to satisfy your wandering desires.

I stood unwound beneath the skies;
And clouds unbound by laws.

Put your hand on my head, baby, do I have a temperature?

Those are the hill of heaven, my love;
You and I'll never know

You don't want a love that's pure;
You wanna drown love;
You want a watered-down love

Oh, baby, that god you been prayin' to;
Is gonna give ya back what you're wishin' on someone else

I see, I see lovers in the meadow;
I see, I see silhouettes in the window;
I watch them 'til they're gone and they leave me hanging on ;
To a shadow

I don't need any reminder;
To know how much I really care

Now I wish I could write you a melody so plain;
That could hold you dear lady from going insane

Tell ev'rybody;
Down in ol' 'Frisco;
That Tiny Montgomery's comin';
Down to say Hello

Now, when I was just a bawlin' child,;
I saw what I wanted to be

I know God is my shield and he won't lead me astray

The night is pitch black, come an' make my;
Pale face fit into place, ah, please!

'Twas then that I knew what he had on his mind.

In order to deal in this game, got to make the queen disappear,;
It's done with a flick of the wrist.

Let's try to get beneath the surface waste, girl,;
No more booby traps and bombs,;
No more decadence and charm,;
No more affection that's misplaced, girl

Oh a false clock tries to tick out my time

Well, I don't have to be no doctor, babe,;
To see that you're madly in love.

People carry roses Make promises by the hours My love she laughs like the flowers Valentines can't buy her

Son, this ain't a dream no more, it's the real thing.

Now the rainman gave me two cures,;
Then he said, "Jump right in.";
The one was Texas medicine,;
The other was just railroad gin.

I'll give you more gold;
Than your apron can hold;
If you'll only let your hair hang low

There are those who worship loneliness, I'm not one of them

In the day of confession;
We cannot mock a soul.;
Oh, when there's too much of nothing,;
No one has control.

You speak to me;
In sign language;
As I'm eating a sandwich

Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial

He said his name was Columbus;
I just said, "Good luck."

Won't you descend from the throne, from where you sit?

Well, I wanna be your lover, baby, I don't wanna be your boss.

In the smoke of the twilight on a milk-white steed,;
Michelangelo indeed could've carved out your features.

I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal

You were snow, you were rain;
You were striped, you were plain,;

I can't provide for you no easy answers,;
Who are you that I should have to lie?

All my friends have told me;
If I hang around with you;
That I'll go blind

I finally realize there's no room for regret

It's all been designed, he said, "To make you lose your mind,;
And when you go back to find it, there's nothing there to find."

Nobody feels any pain

Cities on fire, phones out of order

Everybody's doin' something,;
I heard it in a dream,;
But when there's too much of nothing,;
It just makes a fella mean.

When I'm all alone;
In the great unknown,;
I'll remember you.

Every brain is civilized,;
Every nerve is analyzed,;
Everything is criticized when you are in need.

I'm in a cowboy band

I'm walking through streets that are dead

I am hanging in the balance, of the reality of man;
like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand

What good am I if I know and don't do,;
I If I see and don't say, if I look right through you

I was in your presence for an hour or so;
Or was it a day? I truly don't know.

My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums,;
Should I leave them by your gate,;
Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?

Pardon, monsieur," the desk clerk says,;
Carefully removes his fez,;
"Am I hearin' you right?"

This is the key to the kingdom and this is the town;
This is the blind horse that leads you around

Since every pleasure's got an edge of pain;
Pay for your ticket and don't complain
