The mid-day sky was grey and purple
At least it wasn't blue I want the sky to be the way I am And what I do For I have been a lost and lonely Sailor on your sea Run aground by trusting signals You were sending me The streets are filled with empty faces Nothing here is new It's just the same in other places I have journeyed to I was the first across the water The last across the land I walked out of the silver mine My pockets full of sand Alone inside my head Alone inside my room I feel alone inside my head Alone inside my tiny little world It's not my life in those old pictures The ones you threw away For I was always someone else And always far away Walking in the darkest places Where the mission meets Waiting for the ground to open up Beneath my feet Alone inside my head Alone inside my room I feel alone inside my head Alone inside my tiny little world Alone inside my head Alone inside my room I feel alone inside my head Alone inside my tiny little world |

I don’t think too much, I don’t look inside
For the things I hid away for all those years Have faded now or died So don’t you look through me, with those strangers eyes For the world keeps turning underneath my feet If I go on with the lies Hey baby just you go out tonight, it’s only me that cries And love is waves away, we are waves away And love is waves away, seven waves away That’s me down here, shining up your shoes Keeping my head down like I always do When you walk in with the blues There’s nothing to be said, nothing to be done For I laid my head down at your most famous feet When you said I was the one Hey baby don’t you stay out tonight, and say it isn’t fun And love is waves away, we are waves away And love is waves away, seven waves away And love is waves away, we are waves away And love is waves away, seven waves away And the sound that comes from you sleeping In the darkness is a doorway And the sun that beats on the window In the morning is a doorway And the sun that calls through the window Every morning is a doorway It doesn’t hurt anymore, It doesn’t get me down But I might just swim out on the waves tonight And lay right down and drown Do you really want to be here tonight, or are you just around And love is waves away, we are waves away And love is waves away, seven waves away And love is waves away, we are waves away And love is waves away, seven waves away And love is waves away, we are waves away And love is waves away, seven waves away |

There was a crooked man and he wore a crooked smile
He built a crooked highway and it ran for miles and miles With money from the revenue and sponsorship from Ford But it barely holds together with the goodwill of the Lord In the penthouse of the baron, the little children sleep Daddy talks to smugglers while armed gorillas creep Poison for the great unwashed, business for the mob Another teenage murder, it's trouble on the job Now I see what I must see The poor do time the rich go free You keep the faith and they keep score Is this what you are working for A newsleak in the city, another scandal breaks Sex and drugs in city hall, someone on the make Legal bounty hunters aim their lawsuits well The victim talks to Playboy says I guess I'll go to hell |

There were you and me
Seems like twenty five years ago This old city was different then How were we to know I've got to live my life In a simple way Got to live it all In a single day, a single day The one I love is still in you And the one I want is in there too The one I love is still in you I don't have the time that I used to I can be your miracle man Maybe it's my day I was always a lucky man Teach me how to pray I believe in you You know it too You can leave me out But what I do is what I do The one I love is still in you And the one I want is in there too The one I love is still in you I don't have the time that I used to The one I love is still in you And the one I want is in there too The one I love is still in you I don't have the time that I used to The one I love The one I want The one I love The one I want The one I love is still in you And the one I want is in there too The one I love is still in you I don't have the time that I used to The one I love is still in you And the one I want is in there too The one I love is still in you I don't have the time that I used to |

What did you learn in school today
Did you learn to run when the teachers pray Did they teach you enough to know the state you're in Not enough to get out, not enough to win What did you learn at home today Did you learn to hate in the proper way Did your liberated parents patronize your friends Cos they had enough money, cos they had the right skin I wander 'round thinking, well, what kind of place is this Well maybe it's in the parks, maybe it's in the stores But I know if we're being honest, it's in the people But they're all caught up in the traffic Listening to the weather Well dog, I know we're not in Kansas, the sky's all colored wrong I know we're not in Kansas, the days are all too long I sure don't understand this, that's what you're howling for I know we're not in Kansas, Kansas anymore What did you learn in your job today Did you learn to sleep while the boss is away Did you shut your mouth when he called you down Cos there's not much work in that kind of town I wander around thinking, well what kind of place is this Where they say hey well what did you do in the war And I ask well hey man well what did you do with the peace Well we built these real safe weapons, so we could sleep with ease Well dog, I know we're not in Kansas, the sky's all colored wrong I know we're not in Kansas, the days are all too long I sure don't understand this, that's what you're howling for I know we're not in Kansas, Kansas anymore Well what kind of place is this On the wrong side of the rainbow where the twisters never come And they tore up all the yellow bricks and they sold them to Japan And still the advertisers tell you, hey, there's no place like home Well dog, I know we're not in Kansas, the sky's all colored wrong I know we're not in Kansas, the days are all too long I sure don't understand this, that's what you're howling for I know we're not in Kansas, Kansas anymore I know we're not in Kansas, the sky's all colored wrong I know we're not in Kansas, the days are all too long I sure don't understand this, that's what you're howling for I know we're not in Kansas, Kansas anymore |

Look at him now, another used man
Wearing the passing of his dignity with all the courage that he can He stood in the storm, carved out in stone He said I've worn my honesty with pride in everything I've done So where were you when my ship went down Where were you when I ran aground Where were you when I turned it around Where were you when they burned me down You see her now, all tired and worn She never thought her life would come to be so cold or so alone She walked in the light, fought bondage for love She said I cast off the chains that I was born with but it never was enough Chorus Silent souls washed up on the shores Left to walk the sands evermore, evermore Look at you now just chasing your life Make like the saviour of the planet You're just trying to get by Now you may walk the line, you may see it all through But I know you cry yourself to sleep at night just wondering what to do |

A skyhole here, the sun's let in
It melts the ice, it melts my skin The oceans rise, the lands recede Cities crumble, vermin feed We will all go together when we go, when we go (repeat 2) We will all go together when we go The chainsaw roars, the forests fall The natives hide, the cattle call The water boils with toxic waste We catch the fish to get a taste We will all go together when we go, when we go (repeat 2) We will all go together when we go The atoms split to heat the town And build a bomb to knock it down Nothing is done For all of this Till most to blame is most at risk We will all go together when we go, when we go (repeat 2) We will all go together when we go A skyhole here, the sun's let in It melts the ice, it melts my skin The oceans rise, the lands recede Cities crumble, vermin feed We will all go together when we go, when we go (repeat to end) We will all go together when we go |

We could both be something still
We could spend our lives fulfilled We could leave the battlefields No more arrows, no more shields When the dust of war subsides Will I find you by my side We could be at peace out there Before the summer fair We'll live tomorrow girl Today has come too soon We'll live tomorrow girl Beneath a pink marshmallow moon On the road to monterey I will be with you one day Ride the length of highway one Silhouettes against the sun You can be my surfer queen I will be your football team We could build a love machine At least you let me dream We could find a secret room Somewhere in the house of gloom Meet the lost and lonely man With his lost and lonely plan He will say what I said then You have loved and will again Even though the gift of rain Is destined to remain |

Black cars come and black cars go
Full of secrets you will never know Tires hiss in the rain be feels through the night? Shadows move behind the glass, no one worries no one asks Politions come and go so fast... I dont mean to do no harm I dont wanna cause alarm I try to be cool I try to stay calm But something weirds going on at Chesters Farm... This is the place where the monkeys die This is the cage where the mutants fly On the wings on a industry funded research lay This is where the tests are made Where are finest minds parade upon the planet fools have paid have made... I dont mean to do no harm I dont wanna cause alarm I try to be cool I try to stay calm But something weirds going on at Chesters Farm... I dont mean to do no harm I dont wanna cause alarm I try to be cool I try to stay calm But something weirds going on at Chesters Farm... Something back and the bugs gone wild The biological demon child Its alive and among us resistance is futial... I dont mean to do no harm I dont wanna cause alarm I try to be cool I try to stay calm But something weirds going on at Chesters Farm... I dont mean to do no harm I dont wanna cause alarm I try to be cool I try to stay calm But something weirds going on at Chesters Farm... |
