And you, you took me in,; You loved me then; You didn't waste time.
Well, I asked for something to eat; I'm hungry as a hog; So I get brown rice, seaweed; And a dirty hot dog
What looks large from a distance,; Close up ain't never that big.
You're gonna have to serve somebody.
Your loyalty is not to me; But to the stars above
Nobody feels any pain
We're both just one too many mornings; An' a thousand miles behind.
I want to thank You, Lord,; I just want to thank You, Lord,; Thank You, Lord.
Praise be to Nero's Neptune; The Titanic sails at dawn; And everybody's shouting; Which Side Are You On?
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it
They say you're usin' voodoo, I seen your feet walk by themselves
Just do your thing, you'll be king; If dogs run free.
And every time you get this close; It makes me want to scream
Go 'way from my window,; Leave at your own chosen speed.
Look into infinity, all you see is trouble.
Now, when I was just a bawlin' child,; I saw what I wanted to be
People are crazy and times are strange
You're the one I adore, come over here and give me more
I was just too stubborn to ever be governed by enforced insanity
That's how it is when things disintegrate
Just what do you think you have to guard?
Because something is happening here; But you don't know what it is; Do you, Mister Jones?
Twenty years of schoolin' and they put you on the day shift
I been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down
I know all about poison, I know all about fiery darts,; I don't care how rough the road is, show me where it starts,; Whatever pleases You, tell it to my heart.
And I can't let go, won't let go, and I can't let go no more.
Betrayed by a kiss on a cool night of bliss; In the valley of the missing link
I thought somehow that I would be spared this fate
I see nothing to be gained by any explanation; There are no words that need to be said
Lookin' at my shadow watching the colors up above
I'm hungry and I'm irritable; And I'm tired of this bag of tricks.; At one time there was nothing wrong with me; That you could not fix.
I wish that for just one time; You could stand inside my shoes; You'd know what a drag it is; To see you
I am hanging in the balance, of the reality of man; like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',; But I'll know my song well before I start singin'
But even the president of the United States, Sometimes must have, To stand naked.
When the last rays of daylight go down; Buddy, you'll roll no more; I can hear the church bells ringing in the yard; I wonder who they're ringing for
Time passes slowly when you're lost in a dream.
you remind me of something that used to be; somethin' that crossed over from another century
I'll remember you; At the end of the trail,; I had so much left to do,; I had so little time to fail.
I don't wanna be hers, I wanna be yours.
You got a lotta nerve; To say you are my friend
Do you ever wonder just what God requires?; You think He's just an errand boy to satisfy your wandering desires.
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
The treasure can't be found by men who search
Are you looking at me and thinking of somebody else?
Well, he can be fascinating, he can be dull,; He can ride down Niagara Falls in the barrels of your skull.
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past; I know every scene by heart, they all went by so fast
How long can I stay drunk on fear out in the wilderness?
No time to suffer or blink; And no time to think
My love she speaks like silence
people don’t live or die, people just float
May you have a strong foundation; When the winds of changes shift
Well, the road is rocky and the hillside's mud; Up over my head nothing but clouds of blood
It's for myself and my friends my stories are sung.
Now the moon is almost hidden; The stars are beginning to hide; The fortunetelling lady; Has even taken all her things inside
I see you kiss her on the cheek ev'rytime she gives a speech
My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums,; Should I leave them by your gate,; Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free,; Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands,; With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves,; Let me forget about today until tomorrow.
