It's that time again when I lose my friends
Go walkabout, I've got the bends from pressure. This is a testing time when the choise is mine Am I a fool for love or foolish with desire. You can throw him out, you can spit on him. Call what he does a sin if it makes you feel better. And I can't believe you're all I'll ever need And I need to feel that you're not holding me And the way I feel just makes me want to scream Come home, Come home, Come home Come home, Come home, Come home After thirty years I've become my fears I've become the kind of man I've always hated. I am pulled apart, and my swollen heart Has flipped out of the pan into the fire. I am in love insane with a sense of shame that I threw stones at the condemned and now I'm slated. And I don't believe you're all I'll ever need And I need to feel that you're not holding me But the way I feel just makes me want to scream Come home, Come home, Come home Come home, Come home, Come home Come home, Come home, Come home |

You may say I'm cynical, but I say man is flawed.
He has a vague memory of life before some fall. Behaving like a reptile, but talks of walking tall. If God is in his image, the almighty must be small. God only knows. Swaggart has been caught 'with his trousers round his knees' After damning me and you to hell for eternity. Sex and power and money is the prayer of these priests, they bribe their way past Heaven's Gates and steal a set of keys. God only knows. My guru has been sleeping with adepts and with sheep while I was fucking selibate, self-righteous in belief. Yesterday he was God, now he is a creep. We fell upon each other, starving for relief. God only knows. I damn you all to hell, I speak in the name of God. I know him intimately, I speak in the name of that white haired old man in the clouds, Always a man, Dispensing lightning justice from his fingertips. As self-righteous and bigoted as those who created him. A cruel desert god with absolutely no sense of humour, How do you feel old man? How do you feel? Being spoken for by these self-righteous fanatics. Is Heaven full, oh Lord, of these babbling preachers and god-fearing bigots. Well I know where I'd rather be, Away from this cacophony. God only knows. God only knows. God only knows |

Heart of gold. Heart of gold. Heart of gold.
One body in my mother's belly Chinese dolls, box in boxes. How do you sail the ship from the bottle? How do you sail the ship from the bottle? Heart of gold. Heart of gold. Heart of gold. Gold, gold mother. Gold, gold, gold mother. I can see the head now. Between her legs now. Purple headed alien. Water logged old man. In the blood silence. In the blood silence. Silence. Silence; Cry for me mother. Cry for me my mother. Crimean mother. Cry me another. My feet and hands won't work! My feet and hands won't work! In my baby's body My brand new baby's body. I'll suck my fingers red. I'll suck my fingers red. In my baby's body. My brand new baby's body. I can see the head now. Between her legs now. Purple headed alien. Water logged old man. In the blood silence. In the blood silence. Silence. Silence. Silence. Shut up. In the bright lights, and harsh sounds, there's a man In green ceremonial robes and a mask, dipping a straw through your nose. Mouthwash of meconium. Lungs full of meconium. Heart full of meconium. Meconium. Meconium. Chinese dolls. Box in boxes. Chinese dolls. Box in boxes. I'll go out the same way I came in Chinese dolls. Box in boxes. And everything you touch. And everything you love. And everything you touch Turns to gold. As precious as, As rich as, As dear as, As strong as, As hard as Gold. Mother Past the boundaries of all pain. You journey to the edge of death, in search of a child. Gold mother there's only one. Gold mother and she's mine. She's all mine. Shut up. Let's hear it. Shut up |

Break down the government walls.
Speak in tongues, power is money. I see our interests fall Well behind their curtain. Break down the government walls. Infiltrate our television. Break down the government walls. Time to be outspoken. I can hear the sound of falling masonry As they try to plug that leak. I am tempted by their cloak of secrecy To find out what their games are about. Ask a question and they'll talk of secret services, secrets from the people they should serve. When they can hide their crimes in a legal disguise Truth will not be seen nor heard. In Ireland they may shoot to kill without warning you Or lock you away for a while without trial. And if an honest cop gets too close to the truth of it They'll set him up in style. In style. In Chine, they murder Their youth Who are questioning How their lives are controlled. Do they have the means to rewrite history. Wipe out the genes of doubt. Bring down the government walls. Bring them down within my lifetime. Let's see the curtain drawn, see what they're concealing. Bring down the government walls. Secrecy suggests deception. Bring down the government walls. Crime to be outspoken. It's a crime to be outspoken |

Hang on, she said. I am ignoring all your late night calls I'd prefer to sleep, that feel so small I have this feeling I'm about to crumble and fall. Are you going to the discotheque Cigarettes, perfume, drink and sweat I'd prefer a good book and you in bed. Hang on, she said. Why are we fighting when we should be close to a wedding Which would be better than most. We should be in our hearts Not at our throats. Hang on, she said Now I can feel that you're mad with me Is it justified or imaginary Tell me one day How you would like me to be. Living with you is a dangerous flame You sweep me away, and then you drive me insane. Keep your distance. I'm looking for someone to blame. Hang on, she said. Be a good friend tonight. Understand, see it from my side. Be a good friend tonight, One day you will see me in better light. Hang on, she said |

Well they said you are as good as you look but that would be impossible.
For you look better than the face of God on a sunny day. You look good enough to eat but I've had a bellyful And now I have this bill I don't wanna pay. How was it for you. Do you really need that drink to disarm defences. Can you never face the flak when you're in control. Well I don't believe my luck I am defenceless. Do with me what you want but don't tell a soul. Don't tell my soul. How was it for you If you ain't out of your head can you ever enjoy yourself. But if you ain't ni your head then who's at home? I'm so possessed by sex I could destroy my health. We could be dancing over coals and we'd never know. We'd never know. How was it for you. Where did you get those clothes Are you sure they're still fashionable? The sell-by date on the label says says '68. Where did you steal those riffs and that bad attitude You are travelling back in time to an altered state. How was it for you. Was it as good as it was for me Well that's the best it's ever been And you're the best I've ever seen How was it for you How was it for you |

The view from here's breathtaking
My visions all surrounding. The humans look like insects. There is only one way down. But it's cold and lonely in this stratosphere Gliding through the darkness. Where is my craft leading to Am I damned or blessed? Don't let go on top of the world. Don't let go on top of the world. Will my good friends desert me Or will they prove themselves? Are my demands all greedy Or are they what I need? If I will not be faithful I must accept betrayal. When your turn comes to leave me Will my free ways have failed? Don't let go on top of the world. Don't let go on top of the world. I'll meet you inside this hollow world I'll meet you inside Hollow world, hollow world It's a long way down It's a long way down And I'm so cold |

Blue pastures - fade away
Green rivers in silver light I'm walking to the sound of distant bells So peaceful I don't know who I am And just when I think its clear, it turns all grey again And I wonder who will find me in the snow And just when I thought I was free I got pulled in again Once you're in, you're in. Blue pastures calling home I'm walking but I can't stand anymore Hear voices can't tell near or far Weird voices - lay me down And I don't see why I'm obliged to just carry on When everything I touch turns out wrong And I feel I've committed some crime - but I don't know what I've done One day life just wins One day life just wins Still breathing but I'm tired and I wanna go home Still breathing but i'm not sure anymore Still breathing But it doesn't really matter if I fade away.

Ring the bells Wake the town Everyone is sleeping Shout at the crowd Wake them up This angers deeper than sleep. Got to keep awake to what is happening. I can't see a thing through my ambitions, I no longer feel like God is watching over me Got to tell the world we've all been dreaming This is not the end, a new beginning I no longer feel my God is watching over me. Break the code. Concentrate. Let the doors swing open See through all your walls All your floors Now you're in deeper than sleep Got to keep awake to what is happening. I can't see a thing through my ambitions, I no longer feel like God is watching over me Got to tell the world we've all been dreaming This is not the end, a new beginning I no longer feel my God is watching over me. When you let me fall Grew my own wings Now I'm as tall as the sky When you let me drown Grew gills and fins Now I'm as deep as the sea When you let me die My spirit's free There's nothing challenging me. |

I don't want your sympathy Life just never turned out how I wanted it to Could have been a shooting star Should have made it past the bar Would have been a winner if I'd ever got that far What a state I'm in My self pitying Here's another victim Singing suffering If only I had made the grade Been more loved Been less afraid If only I had scored the goal Got the girl Or even played What a state I'm in My self pitying Here's another victim Singing suffering Fall Let it fall away Then rise To be born again Then fall Let it fall away Then rise To be born again My life's turned to minor chords Loser sad And life's a bore Can't see the point of living In this fashion anymore What a state I'm in My self pitying Here's another victim Selling suffering Fall Let it fall away Then rise To be born again Then fall Let it fall away Then rise To be born again |

Found a message in the sand
It read 'just do the best you can' This world's not how I planned You're on your own No one can hear you They're just talking all the time There's the world and you're outside Your home's hard to find Your home's hard to find Worn down by strangers All you need's a friend You've been worn down by strangers This is not the end Guess it's hard to settle down When love's been spread all around the town I'm no stranger to this room My highs just serve to bring me down I hope to change now From a sorry state of mind. I had hoped for heart to heart My heart's hard to find My heart's hard to find Worn down by strangers All you need's a friend You've been worn down by strangers This is not the end (This is not the end) Worn down by strangers All you need's a friend You've been worn down by strangers All you need's a friend By strangers by strangers by strangers (This is not the end) (this is not the end) This is the end. |

Well I made me a list of lovers from A to infinity
But I couldn't remember the names of half of them I remembered bits of bodies and what they did for me And whether or not I got it up and made them hum Oh, confusion Confusion reigned over me Oh, confusion It bleeds and breathes and breeds all over me Well you used your mouths in ways I only dreamt of You walked the line between acrobat and nun You took me to the edge in public places Then took me home to share me with your mum Oh, confusion Confusion reigned over me Oh, confusion It bleeds and breathes and breeds all over me I lost my mind in a hotel room in Texas All I recall is an awful face and features And when you came you transformed into some creature Now I'm strange I'm so strange Oh, confusion Confusion reigned over me Oh, confusion Confusion reigned over me Oh, confusion It bleeds and breathes and breeds all over me |

I've been digging this grave, but now that it's made
I see that black is one hell of a colour Want to break out so I start to shout But the mortician's returned to his parlour Black hole Wrapped in my shroud upstairs, the music's so loud That I can't concentrate on my sorrow Let down my hair and find something to wear And then dance myself into tomorrow Black hole I'm in a hole here and all I can see Are these grey walls that are closing in on me Throw me a ladder, lend me an arm Beam me up Scotty, lift me from harm Oh why, why deep holes? Oh I love my holes Black hole If the weather would change these clouds might blow away And my body'd be wrapped up in sunshine I want out of this wind that is wearing me thin Blasting my flesh to the marrow Why dig holes? Why deep holes? Black hole |

Ladies and gentlemen, here's my disease
Give me a standing ovation and your sympathy Poor old Johnny Yen set himself on fire again See the jeaned genie on his high-wire act At the back of his mind lies a suicide pact Poor old Johnny Yen set himself on fire again See the young men itching to burn Waiting for their own star turn Needing danger, a war would do If they can't let it out, they'll pick on you Poor old Johnny Yen set himself on fire again See Houdini and his underwater tricks You were sitting at the front, hoping his locks would stick Watch Knievel hit the 17th bus You got crushed in the souvenir rush Poor old Johnny Yen set himself on fire again I said poor old Johnny Yen set himself on fire again See the young men itching to burn Waiting for their own star turn Needing danger, a war would do If they can't let it out, they'll pick on you Poor old Johnny Yen set himself on fire again Ladies and gentlemen, here's my disease Give me a standing ovation and your sympathy Come on, somebody, finish him off please Put the poor fool out of his misery, will you Can't you see he's had enough?

An emotional charge like an electrical spark
But the fuses are two, you can't tell them apart When the bodies collide, the bodies emerge back into one The only urge all change, all change etc. Change your paths But you can't help the thought that when nothing stays still The tiger moves on when its taken its fill But you cling to the part like a shark to its prey When the part doesn't last there's pain, but no one to blame Who's to blame? Fail to achieve a basis for collaboration Fail to achieve a basis for collaboration But you cling to the part like a shark to its prey The preacher looked out on my doing today And he said, "Oh, this looks curly to me." |

To be loving when the knives are out
Takes much courage and a mind without doubt I'm just some robot, wind up the clockwork jerk Trying to impress is the nature of my work And it's so hard to remain open If it's true, it can't be spoken Really hard Really hard Rhetoriticians think they're running this show Words as power is all they'll ever know I'm just some reflex, when struck, the knee will jerk Trying to impress is the nature of our work And it's so hard to remain open If you bend, you won't get broken Really hard Really hard Wake up from this dreaming state A long scream out, it's not too late I am dying to begin I am dying to begin again Really hard Really hard |

Which scarecrow has the power of voice
It will stab you in the thigh And when she wails, it twists your insides Wise scarecrow Which scarecrow Which scarecrow A pitch for which she has been searching Holds the key to the dreams she's been dreaming (refrain) Coming on, coming on, coming on She's coming on strong She's coming on coming on coming on coming on Coming on strong Droll, Try to mix her ego with her soul Never mix the ego with the soul I always twist my ego with my soul Which scarecrow Wise scarecrow Which scarecrow And 'cause you was her inspiration Got a plan that could shatter a nation (refrain) When your song strikes me My walls fall down And I can sit down In your perfect light and sound |

An earwig crawled into my ear
Made a meal of the wax and hairs Phoned friends, had an insect party But all I could hear was the bass drum drum All I could hear was the bass drum drum Now if you put your ear close you'll be able to hear Not the sea shore noise of the shore sea shell The clatter of plates And the bronze of the bell Going ding dong, ding dong, ding dong dong Going out of my mind as they hollow my head I'm floating in the air, but my body's in bed The more they eat, the more I see What is not, but just could be You can hear them laughing in my head You can hear them laughing in my head Ha ha ha ha ha Now they've eaten my memory, I can't recall How the world used to be before So a vision is the same as what is real Depends upon the lighting, and how I feel Ding dong, drum drum, ha ha ha ha ha And then the music stopped The musician went away They'd eaten all my brain The red and the gray They all stack at home Dug a tongue through my nose Where my brain used to be Now there's only a hole |

I can't believe this happening.
I held it back and now it swings. Just lead me on. You know the way. I know the game I know the pain I've been dreaming of gold I've been dreaming of fame I've been dreaming of change Dreaming up tomorrow Dreaming up tomorrow Tomorrow. I have no fear, I have no shame, But everyone is on the game. They talk of dreams, they walk in sleep I'm half away but in too deep I've been dreaming of fame I've been dreaming of gold I've been dreaming of change Dreaming up tomorrow Dreaming up tomorrow Tomorrow. America is dreaming us. In a hostage's hands there'll be no fuss. A messy dream, a dream of youth, A dream of wealth, no room for truth. I can see all these preachers and they're standing on next to me. A hand in the hand and they're waving at me furiously And I don't know why No, I don't know why. I'm standing on the corner and this man is coming up to me With Bible at his hand and he is bashing at me furiously. He has a soapbox on his head and says that god is dead to me I don't know why No, I don't know why. I've been dreaming of fame I've been dreaming of gold I've been dreaming of change Dreaming up tomorrow Tomorrow. |
