The Tide 04:34
Everybody’s talking ‘bout it like it’s a sin, Take me down, take me down, where a man begins Fighting on the street, automatic crime And I’d love to take a runner Ain’t no little banner gonna pin me down I got a free thinking mind and a wall of sound Everybody’s looking at me like I’m a fool But the love keeps hitting me higher And if we cut this falling wire Drink this water it’s drier I’m gonna set your eyes on fire We’re gonna burn this town on down, down. Down. Everybody eyes you off coz you got the look And the folks in your hometown won’t even know Riding on the wave of a public storm And I’d love to get my gun out And every little body’s got a place they go Somewhere in the back of every mind you know Everytime you bite my little backbone grows And it gets a little harder And if the love keeps hitting me higher Through the trap-door comes desire You’re the burglar I’m the buyer In a fortunate disguise And if we cut this falling wire Drink this water it’s drier I’m gonna set your eyes on fire We’re gonna burn this town on down, down. You’re no bigger than any other man With your swollen sense of pride I will bide my time, I will stand in line As we just sit back and we wait For the turning of the tide. And if the love keeps hitting me higher Through the trap-door comes desire You’re the burglar I’m the buyer An unfortunate disguise And if we cut this falling wire Drink this water it’s dryer I’m gonna set your eyes on fire We’re gonna burn this town on down, down.

Bark'n 04:20
I don’t like the, way you think that You know my name so you know everything about me You got limbs so, use your own ones You’re not a charity, you can think for yourself My fingers, they’re my fingers They’re my fingers my hard bone and my nails Go fight your, own battle I’m not you cup of tea Now all of the calls serve only to show You’re not listening to me Find me out on the road dead tired and alone but You’re barking down the wrong tree You can’t use it, time to lose Oh butter-fingers your fingers slipping from mine Greetings from the, other side of The big room where you’re looking, looking to find My body, it’s my body It’s my body it’s not your morning snack I’m running, you’re smiling Until you find that I’m not coming back Now all of the calls serve only to show That you’re not listening to me Find me out on the road dead tired and alone but You’re barking down the wrong tree Maybe you’re falling down Baby you’re on your own This time you’ve pushed too hard I’m not your, I’m not you crutch Now it’s a long way down You’ve only got yourself to blame You’ve had a lovely night Well two can play The break, break, breaking game Brothers of the world Unite and take my hand Don’t believe a word They don’t understand It’s time to break our lines It’s time to make a stand You don’t gotta be Somebody’s tool you’re not a slave My body, it’s my body It’s my body it’s not your morning snack I’m running, you’re smiling Until you find that I’m not coming back All of the calls serve only to show That you’re not listening to me Find me out on the road dead tired and alone but You’re barking down the wrong You’re barking down the wrong You’re barking down the wrong Barking down the wrong tree

Mrs Simmons 03:30
Mrs Simmons didn’t know How to fix her plumbing so she Called me up to get me around To help her with her problem Her sink it had overflowed The pipes had become blocked at the bottom She asked me if I wanted tea, but said Well no, I haven’t got none Her hair was orange like the colour of peaches Her eyes they sparkled in the midday sun Oh Mrs Simmons I am under your spell A new beginning in my life had begun Me and Mrs Simmons danced in the moon light Her dress was a shimmer of the deepest green Oh Mrs Simmons, I think I love you When I’m with you it’s like I’m living a dream Her hair was orange like the colour of peaches Her eyes they sparkled in the midday sun Oh Mrs Simmons I am under your spell A new beginning in my life had begun But she said that we took it too far Perhaps we could just be friends Then she introduced me to her daughter And I fell in love with Miss Simmons instead Her hair was orange like the colour of peaches Her eyes they sparkled in the midday sun Oh Miss Simmons I am under your spell A new beginning in my life had begun Her hair was orange like the colour of peaches Her eyes they sparkled in the midday sun Oh Miss Simmons I am under your spell A new beginning in my life had begun

Well I find you now with your head held down And you’re now sure where to go Gotta find a little peace of mind, gotta make the time To just sit back let it flow And the whole damn world’s spinning faster and faster People lose control Little boy you gotta find a way to make some space Medicine for the soul What say, let’s stick together What say, let’s be best friends I know, you been in trouble, But I think I can understand No one knows what the future be But the present now is clear to me It’s time for you to see You’ve got a friend in me Some people pledge that you’re on the ledge And I’m inclined to agree I think it’s time for you to settle down, find a patch of ground Or a bed where you can sleep You gotta confess, you’re a mess, and your ass in the grass and you’re Jetting round the world You gotta explain, all the pain Little boy I’m gonna help What say, let’s stick together What say, let’s be best friends I know, you been in trouble, But I think I can understand No one knows what the future be But the present now is clear to me It’s time for you to see You’ve got a friend What say, let’s stick together babe What say, let’s be best friends I know, you been in trouble, But I think I can understand No one knows what the future be But the present now is clear to me And now I know you need to see You’ve got a really, really good friend in me We’ll fight our mutual enemies Together like good friends tend to be It’s time for you to see You got a really, really, really good friend

Satellites and Meteors, best friends of the Astronaut When no-one else will guide me on my way Dead and gone without a trace, just a man alone in space A man in space alone with naught but shame I can’t lie I am ashamed So much easier to run from pain Cut my cord and drift away Make my lonely escape in outer space Explorer of great things to be, there’s no reporting back from me A million miles is not too far away Broken hearts and untold lies, things are the things I leave behind The universe is far too small a place I can’t lie I am ashamed So much easier to run from pain Cut my cord and drift away Make my lonely escape in outer space Oh no astronaut Lost on the way, drifting off course Drifting away, of course Come in astronaut Pick up the phone, answer the call I can’t lie I am ashamed So much easier to run from pain Cut my cord and drift away Make my lonely escape in outer space

This one goes out to the forest This one goes out to the sea The one goes out to the mountain Big enough to block out all our dreams If I ever made a mess If I ever caused a scene It’s my problem I confess But I can never, never set you free This one goes out to the wedding The union of two kindred silent souls You will be the one that I will marry Or better yet the one I’ll come to know Well if I ever made you think Well that wasn’t my intent But it was you that drove me to drink Just wasn’t sure really what that meant I say just say what you mean So you’re not saying anything I’ve run out of faith it seems Still you’re not saying anything, yeah This one goes out to the children Bury us beneath the house and run Tell them of the family fortune Why their father’s strung out in the sun They will never ask me why They will never really care They won’t look me in the eye But by god I know they’ll stare And I will have to change my name And I will have to change my face This one goes out to you my love And the whole damn human race
