- Al Sharp
Is it because I'm beside myself with love
that I can say these things to you honey?
Is it because I'm beside myself with guilt
that I can say these things to you honey?
You and me will never be fine
You know I never even tried to smile
- Alleged
Oh Ma there's a hole in my head
Used the bullets that come with the game you gave me
Shine a light into my head,
see the place where we were gonna live
Before you ran off with your spaceman
left me here without a place for us
Oh Ma there's a hole in my head
- Assessment
I think I cracked my skull on the way down
I think I lost my head when I lay down
The fear of facts presented in the cold light of day
I say the time has come for decision
Better steer my boat for a reason
Lost the way I went over horizon
She went out of sight
- Broke
See my friends across the red sky why don't they fly
Simple truth is all I ask for but no reply
You won't cry for me, I'm twisting around my own head, falling around for me
Sitting in a tunnel watching other people go home
A night alone watching other people going home
I try to see it from the other side she loves me
But she knows I slide all night
- Broken Up A Ding Dong
Running down the road in the middle of the light
Light don't mean it's going to be alright
Running down the road in the middle of the light
Say to myself you're gonna be here all night
Tried to find myself and grow
that way you know you see
I'll never see you go slow (x2)
- Dog Got a Bone
Dog's got a bone, all of his own
Wednesday morning, middle of the road
Can't help this feeling, of feeling so alone
Gotta go home now, dog's got a bone now.
Listen you will see, coming on in to me
Listen you will see, coming on in to me
Listen you will see that we are [climbing\/gliding]
- Dr. Baker
Dr. Baker phoned me in the morning
He left a note, he's still yawning
Dr. Baker phoned me in the morning
He left a note, she couldn't make it
How did she ever take a lesson outside his head?
Dr. Baker phoned me in the morning
He couldn't understand, he was a busy man
Tried to reach him again, plead with him:
- Dragon
Jumping up and down and fooling around
Is it ever any wonder that you get knocked down
Coming down fast gonna pass you on the right
I loved you before but now I turn in the night
Why you never seem to try
Moving down the way and getting lost
Blackness is (a place) in my mind
- Dry the Rain
This is the definition of my life
Lying in bed in the sunlight
Choking on the vitamin tablet
The doctor gave in the hope of saving me
In the hope of saving me
Walked in the corner of the room
A junk yard fool with eyes of gloom
- Gone
Hey now sister won't you come and bless my soul
I been along time comin down the mountainside
You see I fell from a spaceship I was taken for a little ride
And I'd very much like to fall in love with you
If you would if you would I'd like to know
will you think of me when I'm gone?
Sister live a long time I don't want to fight with you
- Human Being
She got me on a Monday
That's what I like to see
Got me on a Tuesday
That's what it's meant to be
Put me on a Wednesday
I would want to say
Married on a Thursday
Make another way
- Inner Meet Me
Inner meet me, oh you can't decide (repeated)
Last night I dreamt that somebody fell asleep between my knees
I couldn't help it all my thoughts were rejected by a boy who called me
Last night I dreamt that somebody fell asleep between my knees
I couldn't help it all my thoughts were rejected by a boy who called me
Last night I dreamt that somebody fell asleep between my knees
I couldn't help it all my thoughts were rejected by a boy who called me
- It's Not Too Beautiful
You'd like to feel that I would float away someday
I cried a hundredth time, things never came my way
But I will find, but I will find
Who's gonna shake a corner of my mind today?
What's in those dusty rooms, I fear for in every way
But I will find, but I will find
- it's over
Who could find him the sidewinding Indian
Why do they miss him, the overpaid simpleton?
She jumped in the river of the tears that I cry
Those are left alone, they're left outside
Spooky little lizard girl, where did you run to?
I only asked your name, never meant to hurt you
She wrote me a letter on the back of the road
I was travelling away and she travelled thru the circle
- Life
I went to look for shadows but the shadows they found me
I went to swim the ocean but I drowned up in the sea
I want to love my woman but she chose him over me
I want to be somebody else I feel I won't be free
Is this me for life?
I fought to keep from crying as I lay upon the floor
And everyone I knew right then pressed me to the floor
- Lion Thief
I lied to this man as I called him a friend
He fell as I tripped him: he won't smile again
The fruits of the loops of the friendships that droop
They pulled up my head as I try to lay dead
Never realize I'm painting the corners, the edge
As the fruits of the loops of the friendships that droop
Where do you go when you hide your love away?
- Liquid Bird
Is this the legend of the liquid brain
That crossed the funk muscleman who died in the rain?
He never guessed that the world would end,
Crawling on the beach from the sea to the land
How far can a man go
Crawling on his elbow?
Falling through his window?
- Needles In My Eyes
Last night it was so good
I felt like crying, I felt like crying
Last night though you looked so cold
I felt like smiling, smiling while I'm dying
Last night looked so good
I felt like crying, I felt like crying
Last night though you looked so old
- Out-Side
cried so loud the song today
the devil knows I couldn't get far
went to the beach but I couldn't find the path
tried to catch a train but it wasn't where I went
(wanted to) catch a plane but it wasn't (where I flew)
(all the time) I flew (just to get) back to you
I love your way (x2)
- Quiet
There’s a quiet little man
and he sits at his window
Doesn’t make a sound
but he watches where the wind blows
Wants to go outside
fears wouldn’t let him
[Force] a little smile
and the fears come rolling
- Round The Bend
I'm going totally round the bend
I don't want to see my friends
I don't want to see my mad friend
Because he's driving me insane
I don't want to see my friends
I'm going totally round the bend
Earlier on today I tried to walk down the street
- Simple
It's a Tuesday, now I can be
With the people that I love tonight
They left me all a lone, and I can't forgive them
I guess I'll be on my own
I tried to see it their way
I tried to be alone
I tried to do my own thing, but
- Simple Boy
Well I'm a hunchback superblack tower block core
Fine tooth whale bait cowering boom bait
Simple boy, simple girl, simple world, so I heard
Landing down feet first smokey Joe *cheeba* thirst
Hairy back tracker side step a little further on the
floor for the more
for the more more
She's a coward she's a cheat and she speaks
- Smiling
You lost it, you sold it, you bought it, you found it
You broke it, you stole it, you dropped it, you drowned it
You fought it, you want it, you flew it, you sue it
You glue it, you drew it, you float it, you goat it
You shopped it, you flogged it, you taught it, you bought it
You own it, you know it, you blew it, you smoked it
You start it, you loved it, you ate it, you blew it
- Space Beatle
Just like yesterday
I'll never feel this way again
Just like yesterday
If I never see this face again
If I lose now Will you find me
On the
And I'm brain dead, I keep smiling
- Squares
I seen the demons but they didn't make a sound
They tried to reach me but I lay upon the ground
I seen the people but they didn't make a sound
They tried to reach me but I gave the runaround
I reached for feelings but they didn't make a sound
They tried to reach me but I lay upon the ground
I saw miles and miles of squares, where's the feeling there
Still nobody cares for miles and miles of squares
- The House Song
Put it in your pocket for a rainy day
Sing your song and you know you're wrong now [repeated*]
I don't know why I can't think of a line [repeated*]
Yesterday I found a day
I know today I lost a day [repeated*]
* these first three parts repeated over one another
[Steve's French/Japanese sounding rap]
- To You Alone
If you could look at me from above my feet
I'll have you back in time for me, don't look back for me
There's not a lottery for you in there
Guitar in hand, hold it like a song man
You do not realise the line that runs from me
Too glad to visualise the lie line that runs from me
- Troubles
It's about time that we fell in love
You know that I've been trying
It's about time that we had a laugh
You know that I've been crying
Too many people, too many troubles
Too many mouths are lying
- Wonderful
She's so wonderful
She's so wonderful
She's so wonderful
She's so wonderful
In time you realize
It's all for you, I do
In time you realize
