Jesus came from outta space and travelled from beyond the stars,
He came down for peace on Earth and left in a second-hand car,
The old men came to watch their sheep, lit their fire while the records played
Talked all night till they lost the plot, and they fell down the english way
fell down the english way

Love is all, love is tall, love is older than you,
Love'll talk, love'll walk, love'll speak out for you

Jesus came from outta space and travelled from beyond the stars,
He came down for peace on Earth and left in a second-hand car,
In the heavens with the planets in,
all the stars seem to look my way (look my way)
Been so long since I came unstuck,
now tryna make you feel that way (tryna make you feel that way)

Love is all, love is tall, love is older than you,
Love'll wide, love'll talk, love'll speak up for you
Love'll shake, love'll wake a way, love'll wake up with you
Love is all, love is tall, love is older than you,

Come on brother have you lost your touch or have you gone and lost your way
A few hunters came to try their luck, but they died on the way to Bombay
Withered hands lay upon the rocks and raise your glass to the morning age
Next life's gonna be just fine,
so I'll see you on the other side, I'll meet you on the other side

Love is all, love is tall, love is older than you,
Love'll talk, love'll walk, love'll speak up for you
Love'll shake, love'll wake, love'll wake up with you
Love is all, love is tall, love is older than you,

This is the next century
Where the Universal's free
You can find it anywhere
Yes, the future's been sold
Every night we're gone
And to karaoke songs
How we like to sing along
'Though the words are wrong

It really, really, really could happen
Yes, it really, really, really could happen
When the days they seem to fall through you
Well, just let them go No-one here is alone

Satellite's in every home
Yes, the Universal's here
Here for everyone
Every paper that you read
Says tomorrow's your lucky day
Well, here's your lucky day

It really, really, really could happen
Yes, it really, really, really could happen
If the days they seem to fall through you
Well, just let them go

why don't you sing me that
pretty lullaby
then when you're singing great
pack it all up

I wanna new face right now
and I want it bad
I wanna new body that's strong
I'm a butchered cow

I wanna try and fly
I wanna try and die
I wanna be a pig
I wanna fuck a car

I wanna new face right now
and I want it bad
I wanna new body that's strong
I'm a butchered cow

I wanna be a stupid and shallow mutherfucker now
I wanna be a tough skinned bitch but I don't know how
I wanna be a shiny new baby with a spongy brain
I wanna be a horse fill of fire what will never reign

I fully understand the shotgun in my pillow
Is no uncarved block at hand
Life is sweet but not it seems for Buddha
There's a shotgun in his hand

Shotgun, shotgun, shotgun, shotgun

The nature of uncarved blocks
Is how to describe what's hard to describe
Yeah

The simplest things, the quietest
The child-like simplicity
Everything I need to hear
Positive the way I view
The simple of thought inherit the earth (shotgun blows)
Like Winnie the Pooh, confucianist rules (shotgun blows)
Oblivious in what I do (oh)
Deliberate the way I live (shotgun blows)

(Shotgun blows, shotgun blows, oh, shotgun blows)
(Shotgun blows, shotgun blows, oh, shotgun blows)

The nature of uncarved blocks
Is how to describe what's hard to describe
Vinegar taster says
The more force I apply, more trouble I make
(Is that I cannot describe why it is
Such a perfect illustration of the opposite and
Complex arrogance we display to protect one another)
Think too much, think too much
Think too much, think too much

She turned the nightlight on a blew him a kiss.
He stared back through is green crayola eyes.
She traced his likeness from off the back of a disc.
Next to the boxtop promise of the biggest prize.
Joining a fan club with my friends.
Filling our bathtubs with tee shirts and 8 x 10's.
He looks so dreamy,
I'm in love from afar.
When I'm picking up a fallen star.
Downstairs the late show's blasting 'age of the rock'.
The greedy monks playin' last Sunday at the milky way.
Mom's writing checks to the minister in the corner singing 'dig down deep'.
'Cause if you wanna go to heaven all you gotta so is pay to pray.
Joining a fan club with my pen.
Filling my bathtub with Holy water and amens.
He looks so dreamy,
I'm in love from afar.
When I'm picking up a fallen star.
Shake that woody.
Shake it for me St. Pinocchio.
You've paid your money, now watch that money grow.
Joining a fan club, best be warned.
He turns me on when he wears that lampshade corwn of thorns.
We'd be so dreamy,
Sharing his black caviar.
While I'm picking up a fallen star.
Joining a fan club is a big mistake.
I still get heartburn when I think about all of the stamps I ate.
I wished I'd loved him,
Before fate crashed his car.
Say a prayer for the fallen star.

Rat-a-tat-tat on the window
Of a casualty dawn
The wind's tapping out a message for us
A message I already know
The wind's picking up as our words become
The litter of the night before
Words who seems so empty now
Blowing round the room
Getting twisted and torn
Everybody's in their own world
Everybody's staring at the floor
No-one wanna see the sign in the sky
Says people don't talk anymore
I don't wanna stay here
But I don't think I can go
I don't wanna stay here
But I really don't think I can go
It must have been some evil one
It must have been a twisted joke
Whoever it was round here
Who turned on that radio
My God it's a sick world
Out there on the radio
Any way that you look at it man
We're on our way out
At the end of it all
I gotta say it's a sick world
In here it's a human disgrace
Ru saying if we can get some
We're going to make it to the moon
But I don't wanna go there
But I don't wanna stay
No I don't wanna stay here
But I really don't think I can go
Oh no, oh no
Nowere to go
Oh no
'Cause we're all going down together, together
Yes we're all going down together, forever
We're all going down forever, forever
We're all going down forever, together
Forever, Together
Together, Forever
Going down...

Midnight rockers city slickers
Gunmen and me yeah
On a the feature on the freakshow
And I can't do nothing 'bout that, no no

Just as long as my baby's safe from harm tonight

You can free the world you can free my mind
Just as long as my baby's safe from harm tonight

And they spread into your system like a virus

To see me lookin back at you

I was lookin' back to see

To see me lookin back at you

You can free the world you can free my mind
Just as long as my baby's safe from harm tonight

I Will Be Your Girlfriend


I'm the gum on your shoes
The prostitute who rings your family
I'll take your breath away
You crossed my path and you'll pay
And both your friends will laugh

I'm a person with a plan for you
I'm a person who will wreck your confidence

I will be your namesake
I will be your headache
I will be your witsend
I will be your girlfriend

I'm the knee in your groin
Look around you, no-one's noticed
It's true

I'm a person with a plan for you
I'm a person who will wreck your confidence

I will be your namesake
I will be your headache
I will be your witsend
I will be your girlfriend

I'm the gum on your shoe
I'm the knee in your groin
I'm the fly in your soup
I have the fruit of your loin

Somehow I'll complicate your life
and now you'll have to tell your wife

I'm a person with a plan for you
I'm a person who will wreck your confidence

I will be your namesake
I will be your headache
I will be your witsend
I will be your girlfriend

I will be your namesake
I will be your headache
I will be your witsend
I will be your girlfriend

I will be your girlfriend...

Marky got with Sharon, Sharon got Sherice
She was sharin' Sharon's outlook on the topic of disease
Mikey had a facial scar, and Bobby was a racist
They were all in love with dyin', they were doin' it in Texas

Tommy played piano like a kid out in the rain
Then he lost his leg in Dallas, he was dancin' with a train
They were all in love with dyin', they were drinking from a fountain
That was pourin' like an avalanche comin' down the mountain

I don't mind the sun sometimes, the images it shows
I can taste you on my lips and smell you in my clothes
Cinnamon and sugary and softly spoken lies
You never know just how you look through other people's eyes

Some will die in hot pursuit in fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit while sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche comin' down the mountain

I don't mind the sun sometimes, the images it shows
I can taste you on my lips and smell you in my clothes
Cinnamon and sugary and softly spoken lies
You never know just how you look through other people's eyes

Another Mikey took a knife while arguing in traffic
Flipper died a natural death, he caught a nasty virus
Then there was the ever present football player-rapist
They were all in love with dyin', they were doin' it in Texas

Paulie caught a bullet, but it only hit his leg
Well, it should have been a better shot, and got him in the head
They were all in love with dyin', they were drinkin' from a fountain
That was pourin' like an avalanche comin' down the mountain

I don't mind the sun sometimes, the images it shows
I can taste you on my lips and smell you in my clothes
Cinnamon and sugary and softly spoken lies
You never know just how you look through other people's eyes

I thought I could hear you
Echoing words of denial
Careful not to feel you near me
Clawing out at what you call life
Hold on to what you want, hold on to what you have
Hold on to where you are, hold on to where...
I face the change
I've tasted pain
Digging a hole
Now take the blame
I fell aside
I cast away
Covered in shame
Now take the blame
Thought I was beneath you
Crawling in your bed of lies
You infected me with envy
Tiny daggers in my eye
Hold on to what you want
Hold on to what you have
Hold on to where you are
Hold on to where
I face the change
I've tasted pain
Digging a hole
Now take the blame
I fell aside
I cast away
Covered in shame
Now take the blame
Thought I could believe you
Selling me your big surprise
Only needing one more victim
Tearing down your one disguise
Hold on to what you want
Hold on to what you have
Hold on to where you are
Hold on to where
I face the change
I've tasted pain
Digging a hole
Now take the blame
I fell aside
I cast away
Covered in shame
Now take the blame
