Trees that've stood for a thousand years suddenly will fall.
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here,;
All the pigeons gonna run to him.
Do you know where we're headin'?;
Lincoln County Road or Armageddon?
Silver and gold;
Won't buy back the beat of a heart grown cold
I fought with my twin, that enemy within, 'til both of us fell by the way.
Someone else is speakin' with my mouth, but I'm listening only to my heart.
My love she speaks like silence
In the home of the brave, Jefferson turnin' over in his grave
Did I miss the mark or;
Over-step the line;
That only you could see?
Too many thoughts get in the way in the day
For I know that you know that I know that you know;
Something is tearing up your mind.
I'm going back to New York City;
I do believe I've had enough
She says, "What'll it be?";
I say, "I don't know, you got any soft boiled eggs?"
You got a lotta nerve;
To say you are my friend
Well, they're not showing any lights tonight;
And there's no moon.
An' here I sit so patiently;
Waiting to find out what price;
You have to pay to get out of;
Going through all these things twice.
What happened to the real you, you've been captured but by whom?
Give me a string bean, I'm a hungry man.
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.
I finally realize there's no room for regret
I've gained some recognition but I lost my appetite.
In the hills of mystery,;
In the foggy web of destiny,;
You can have what's left of me,;
Where we were born in time.
your pleasure knows no limits
You cast your spell and I went under,;
I find it so difficult to leave.
And you never ask questions;
When God's on your side.
In your teardrops, I can see my own reflection
Everybody's doin' something,;
I heard it in a dream,;
But when there's too much of nothing,;
It just makes a fella mean.
Any day now, any day now,;
I shall be released.
You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
Our conversation was short and sweet;
It nearly swept me off-a my feet.
Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
He bought me with a price,;
Freed me from the pit,;
Full of emptiness and wrath;
And the fire that burns in it.
Do I need your permission to turn the other cheek?;
If you can read my mind, why must I speak?
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast;
Oh, but what a shame if all we've shared can't last.
The sky cracked its poems in naked wonder
My feet are so tired, my brain is so wired
All he believes are his eyes, And his eyes, they just tell him lies
Man's ego is inflated, his laws are outdated, they don't apply no more
Get the loot, don't be slow, we're gonna catch a trout
Your loyalty is not to me;
But to the stars above
Pain sure brings out the best in people, doesn't it?
Will I ever learn that there'll be no peace, that the war won't cease;
Until He returns?
Well, I got a harmonica job, begun to play,;
Blowin' my lungs out for a dollar a day.
And I, I don't mind the pain;
Don't mind the driving rain;
I know I will sustain;
'Cause I believe in you.
I wasn't born to lose you.
You should be made;
To wear earphones
Sometimes I wanna take to the road and plunder
Your mind is your temple, keep it beautiful and free,;
Don't let an egg get laid in it by something you can't see.
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
If there's a poor boy on the street,;
Then let him have my seat;
'Cause tonight I'll be staying here with you.
I'm already there in my mind;
And that's good enough for now
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane?
Guess it's too late to say the things to you;
That you needed to hear me say.
Something there is about you that brings back a long forgotten truth
She knows there's no success like failure;
And that failure's no success at all.
It's the last temptation;
The last account;
The last time you might hear the sermon on the mount,;
The last radio is playing.
When I met you, baby,;
You didn't show no visible scars.
I couldn't see where we were goin';
But you said you knew an' I took your word
Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties;
Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
