Change your mind,
Everybody’s got to learn sometime.
I wasn’t lookin’
But somehow you found me
I tried to hide from your love-light
But like heaven above me
The spy who loved me
Is keepin’ all my secrets safe tonight
I’m a rocket man.
–William Shatner
[i]I can live with the sky falling out from above
I can live with your scorn, your sourness, your smug
I can live with growing alone if push comes to shove
But I can’t live without my mother’s love
When she’s gone, I’ll miss our slow easy walks
Playing Scrabble with the chimes of the grandfather clock
I’ll even miss the times that we fought
But mostly I’ll miss being able to call her and talk
I can live without watching the classical fights
I can live without a lover beside me at night
I can live without what you might call a charmed life
But I can’t live without my mother providing her life[/i][/SIZE]
double postin’ for good measure (jeff buckley told me to)

Lilac wine is sweet and heady, like my love
Lilac wine, I feel unsteady, like my love
Listen to me… I cannot see clearly
Isn’t that she coming to me nearly here?
Lilac wine is sweet and heady where’s my love?
Lilac wine, I feel unsteady, where’s my love?
Listen to me, why is everything so hazy?
Isn’t that she, or am I just going crazy, dear?
Lilac Wine, I feel unready for my love…[/i]
Now don’t you worry
It’s a never-ending story
Stand proud and let it out
Let 'em know, let it show
Wait till they hear
Till they hear
Hear the sonic youth
There’s a black rainbow above my house
Match the curtains and the floor
I think I’m glass I think I’m breaking it
Wrecking ball outside the door
Let the children act like furniture
For the ladies of the lawn
But I can’t see them, I can’t see at all.
Here it’s nighttime, all the time
Gaze into my chocolate eyes
Let my music sterilise
Give to me your hard earned coin
I’ll share with you my tortured groin
what you’re feeling is not weird
you want to burrow in my beard
Gaze upon my chiselled abs
I no longer have the crabs
my rhymes will grab you by the throat
and ride you like a sturdy goat
I will drown you in my scent
with or without your consent
I am a whore of some renown
Your buttocks are my hunting ground
I am a manwhore without peer
Absorbing sex from the atmosphere
Oooooooooooohh
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh
Woah woah woah woah wowoah woah
woah woah wowoah woooaaahhh
Wowowoah wowowoaah wowowowowowoooaahh
Zzzzzzoooooooohhhhhhhhhhh!!!
Pressure building like a cyst
I want to share with you love’s fist
I’ll lick your feet,I’ll wear a collar
I’d do anything for a dollar
I will fit you like a glove
More precious than a father’s love
Not that I would really know…hmph
I like my women rich and young
the kiss of yogurt on my tongue
I wield a fleshy latin sword
raptor jesus is my lord
Let me be your phantom limb
crack and yoghurt keeps me slim
Struggling with modernity
a whore for all eternity
-The manwhore
The sun rose over the wasteland
As far as the eye can see
Sand fills the vast plains of Serkland
It’s vultures jeering at me
But they can circle until they drop dead
I have not come this far
To end, but to pursue my own thread
To join The Varangian Guard
Guards of glory and of might
Red as blood and black as night
Flies our banner as we march
In the East, for the king of the Greek
[i]There once was a boy, a robotic boy,
with a crank sticking out of his brain.
He never performed with sadness or joy,
he was just simply programmed to sing.
So he sang… so he sang…
so he sang… so he sang…
until one day,
with noone around, this robot fell down,
and the crank, it broke off of his head.
With the jar to his hard-drive, he felt all alive,
the old robot, he used to be dead.
THERE WAS RAGE IN HIS BRAIN, THERE WAS PAIN IN HIS FRAME,
THERE WAS LOVE, THERE WAS HUNGER AND STRIFE!
HE FELT LONELY, REJECTED, AT TIMES DISCONNECTED,
NO ANSWER TO THE MEANING OF LIFE,
SO HE SANG… So he sang…
so he sang… so he sang…[/i]
[i]Waking up, breaking out
This is what it’s like to be free
Rip it up, tear it down
This it what it means to be free[/i]
Entombed in the shrine of zeros and ones
You know, you know
With fatherless features, you motherless creatures, you know
In perpetual night, oh it’s terribly frightening
You know, you know
You got the pop and the hiss in the city of misfits, you know
Safe safe and safest, faith for the faithless
Dim dim and dimmer, sucker for sinners
I’m entombed in the shrine of zeros and ones
You know, you know
With fatherless features, you motherless creatures, you know
In perpetual night, oh it’s terribly frightening
You know, you know
You got the pop and the hiss in the city of misfits
Safe safe and safest, faith for the faithless
Three hours or less and they’re gonna need every second, cuz you know who’s on their tail?
THE STALKERS!!!
Who?
THE STALKERS!!!
awesome synth riff
I see ships on the horizon bleak
I know whom they come to seek
They will find I’m not alone
They won’t come at ease
Maybe leaving them alive was wrong
Even though they were so young
So I reap as I have sown
Not a moment’s peace
[i]The ship is heading underneath the sea,
You were the last reason I was waking up each morning.
I’d cut a hole in my throat just for you,
What a dirty love
if I’ve ever tasted one.
You’re a sacred heart
for a preaching dead man.[/i]
The higher that the monkey can climb
The more he shows his tail
Call no man happy 'til he dies
There’s no milk at the bottom of the pail
God builds a church
The devil builds a chapel
Like the thistles that are growing
'round the thrunk of a tree
All the good in the world
You can put inside a thimble
And still have room for you and me
I am the fortunate one,
left with the blood in my skin,
You are the only thing I
hope is real in a dark world.
We were born with our face to the wall
We only have one chance to crawl
When we laid down there I held your hand
And never feel your body again
Cut down the preacher, he just lies
Burn all the books that closed my mind
Destroy it all, it’s all untrue
How can I even breathe without you?
[i]Change your heart,
look around you.
Change your heart,
it will astound you.
I need your loving…
like the sunshine…[/i]
