- A Little Is Enough
They say that love often passes in a second
And you can never catch it up
So I'm hanging onto you as though eternity beckoned
But it's clear that the match is rough
Common sense'd tell me not to try and continue
But I'm after a piece of that diamond in you
So keep an eye open
My spirit ain't broken
- And I Moved
And I moved
As I saw him looking in through my window
His eyes were silent lies
And I moved
And I saw him standing in the doorway
His figure merely filled the space
And I moved
But I moved toward him
- Cat's In The Cupboard
Cats in the cupboard
You've got to set him free
Cats in the cupboard
You've got to set him free
Cats in the cupboard
You've got to set him free, yeah
Rats on the high street
- Come To Mama
His pride is like a bandage
He's wrapped in a warm cocoon
His pride is just like heroin
He's back inside the womb
His pride is like an ocean
Encircled by a reef
His pride's an hypnotic potion
- Commonwealth Boys
Don't ever call me a man
I'll decide for myself to tell you what I am
Don't want to be called a boy know more
Cause boys fill the trenches in imperialist war
Don't ever call me a queen
Victorian values just ain't the scene
Don't want to be held responsible for you
- Content
I am ready to learn and grow
I am alone with the truth
I am brave what is there to fear
I am strong, God supports me
I am patient, each moment of eternity
I am able to help when necessary
I am happy singing in the arms of God
- Day Of Silence
When you're feeling low
Try a day of silence
Take things very slow
Listen to the wireless
Never speak a sound
Sit up on the hedgerow
Watch the world go round
Peace will let your mind go
- Dig
Dig, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig
We old ones have seen two wars
We old ones have seen two wars
When you're sick and afraid, and there's danger around
Take a pick and a spade, and cut into the ground
Away from the light, away from the sound
- Empty Glass
Why was I born today?
Life is useless like Ecclesiastes say
I never had a chance
But opportunity's now in my hands
I stand with my guitar
All I need's a mirror
Then I'm a star
- Evolution
Well, once I was a stone, many years ago
Into a pool was thrown, many years ago
Time went by and the pool ran dry
Excavated was I, and tempered and beat in the fiery heat
By the hand of a man, whose name was Dan, Dan the blacksmith
Well once I was a daisy, many years ago
In pastures green and lazy, many years ago
- Flame
You shone like a light to follow
Knowing I would
You graced me with a precious gift
That no one else could
Touched by your presence I surrender
You gave me a lead and I was a follower
A chance to succeed, I am a discoverer
- Football Fugue
I was listening to a guitar, bass drum thing
Started hearing chest screech, thought I had a gut strength
Then I saw a big band, right on the pavement
Violins and heavy boots, wondering where the wave went
You
(What?)
I'm talking to you, you're wearing the wrong colored scarf
- Give Blood
Give blood
But you may find that blood is enough
Give blood
And there are some who'll say it's not enough
Give blood
But don't expect too ever see reward
Give blood
You can give it all but still asked for more
- I Always Say
I went down to see my sister
The story was the same
She said oh Brother you got to help me
He's gone and left me again
I said he's probably just been out all night drinking
Like the men you married always like to do
He's probably lying in some gutter somewhere
Hopelessly some side of you.
- Keep On Working
I was digging in the yard today
When a letter came from Southampton way
Keep on working
Keep on working
I must admit, I was a bit in the red
But if you never have pleasure, then you could be dead
Keep on working
Keep on working
- Let My Love Open The Door
When people keep repeating
That you'll never fall in love
When everybody keeps retreating
But you can't seem to get enough
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
- Mary Jane
Mary Jane became a good friend to me
You showed me ways a different way to be
But now comes a time to move further down the line
So get your Ten l'il fingers off of me.
Mary Jane promised me so much
My soul has been used to your touch
But for every thing we gain, I then became your slave
- Meher Baba M5
You will each hear your own song
Each your own note
Your own vibration in the cosmos
All of you will know one another through the other song
You will blend and get in harmony
As you blend your song will change
And at the end your music will turn into a sound so complete
- Outlive The Dinosaur
I breathe, my throat clenches
Clutching to exclude
A dozen different stenches
In Falmouth Bay
A blue whale rolls
Going to drown in the swill
From city sewer holes
Summers longer
- Predictable
Your love is so predictable
I can rely on you to blow my brain
You always know which trick to pull
I can predict you'll drive me wild-insane
Your love is so predictable
Oh yes it is
(repeat 4 times)
- Rough Boys
Tough boys
Running the streets
Come a little closer
Rough toys
Under the sheets
Nobody knows her
Rough boys
Don't walk away
- Slit Skirts
I was just thirty-four years old and I was still wandering in a haze
I was wondering why everyone I met seemed like they were
Lost in a maze
I don't know why I thought I should have some kind of
Divine right to the blues
It's sympathy not tears people need when they're the
Front page sad news.
- Somebody Saved Me
I stood at the door beside her
But she wouldn't let me pass
I was such a bore, and I lied to her
I said I didn't really want her ass
I went away in the mud and rain
The gang became snide and laughed
I was slain, but I smiled and the pain
Began to subside at last
- The Sea Refuses No River
I remember being richer than a king
The minutes of the day were golden
I recall that when the joint passed around
My body felt a little colder
But now I'm like a sewer channel - running lime and scag
Let me get at the master panel - let me at my stack
The sea refuses no river
