Talkin' to a punker priest
Just doggin' the breeze
Bout bein' in a tree
(he says it's free now)
Along comes Mary Christ
Skatin' light on ice
Says let's go on high
(later, priestoid)

Gotta go, I got a date now
Yeah I know, shall not be late now

Possessed by X-ray eyes
Her spirits flies
Into my lies
(let's burn em out now) ??
Wraps my head in skin
Says now I'm in
Dig the candy sin
(yeh spit it out now)

Every time she sings that low song
Every time I know I'm right/wrong

Angel in a devil skirt
Buys me a shirt
Says I hope you like
(like what now)
Hope, I hope you like
Like you like yr hope
With the tightest rope
(i see, i know)

Here we go, I been waiting so long
Yeah I know, for Mary to come along

[Mary-Chrsit demo]

my darling cruises the streets for pleasure
skyscrapers in the dead love dawn
throbbing blood mind selfless creature
forever yours and then she's gone
radios play nothing when she's far away
tv antenna nothing gone to waste
radio transmitting nowhere it falls away,
she's far away

every corner creeping panic
freak lighting in her abstract mind
rubber stamps and dreams of cashflow
wild blood ecstatic crime
radios play nothing when she's far away
tv antenna rusting gone to waste
radio transmitting nowhere it falls away,
she's far away

every day I feel more like her
street magic in the burning dawn
out for blood my selfless lover
forever yours and then she's gone
radios play nothing when she's far away
tv antenna nothing gone to waste
radio transmitting nowhere it falls away,
she's far away

Mission Control to Brain Police
Free love/ki-energy
Penetration
Destroys the party
Violation
of the cosmic body
do you understand the problem
anti war is anti orgasm

smash the moral hypocrisy
mission control/ki-anarchy
libration
not your sex slave
domination will you behave
see how we believe in nothing
anti god is anti orgasm

There's something in the air there
Makes you go insane
Brings you back to me
It's been so long
All that i have to do
Is live along
It's coming coming down
Over me
Do you want to see
The explosions in my eye
Do you want to see
The reflection of
How we used to be
Beauty lies

In the eyes of anothers dreams
Beauty lies
Lost in anothers dream
It's coming coming down
Over me
Do you want to see
The explosions in my eye
Do you want to see
The reflection of
How it used to be

Hey baby
Hey sweetheart
Hey fox come here
Hey beautiful

wish I could change the way that you feel
standing with him you feel more real
looking so sweet with all your might
trusted in him to put it night (?)

holding his hand like a brand new kite
blue eyes sparkle, open, alright
wish I could see, the girl who'd fight
playing and laughing and trying to show it

running and falling and dying to know it
staring you down with her gaze hold it
wish I could free you but I can't don't blow it

It goes without me
What I used to be
Prove it
A breath for you
No kiss
My tears they fly
In the wind

Cuz you believe
In what I can see
My body moves
It goes without me
It used to dance one two one two
It used to prance one two one two
Now I follow you
Forever
You compell me to
Fly.... flew..

Nothing
Forever

memories in the shadow
back in time again

but i can't forget your terrorized face
when you cried for the shameless
wasted life Ameri-K-K-Kan
and you smiled
so why should we run when we cannot hide
and my flag it's burning
we could be wrong but that's allright
we'll rise again

a hair in the hole in my head
too bad the scene is dead
our memories in the shadow
it's back in town again

look in a way it's another day
and of course we love you
radical man is the CIA
and we say no
we'll round up the Durham H.C. kids
and the Char Grill Killers
Jesse H. come into our pit
all ages show

a hair in the hole in my head
too bad the scene is dead
our memories in the shadow
it's back in time again

[Thurston]
cars are trucks
they got me on the corner
but I'm alright
standing proud before the signal
when I see the light
I feel like more than just a number
and I stand by you
or else we just don't see the others

find some pants
... on the desert (?)
but I'm alright
standing out here in the hot sun
when I see the light
I feel like more than just a number
and I stand by you
or else we just don't see the others

precious metal lies
... into the highway... (?)
days and night
weeks and months and seasons
rolling through me (?)

I need you
like .... a heartbeat
....
....
....
.... mirror
and ....
....

I maintain that
Chaos is the future
And beyond it is freedom
Confusion is next and next after that is the truth
You gotta cultivate what you need to need
Sonic tooth
Sonic tooth
Sonic tooth
Stick your fingers
In your mouth
Squeeze your tongue
And wrench it out
From its ugly fucking cancer
Its ugly fucking cancer
Root
You gotta cultivate what you need to need

a thousand leaves for your disguise fall on

realize the leaves are falling up and down
up and round.
and this is from my heart to you
a crazy wind will stir me too and contre de la

Out in the yonder way out in the yonder
She started to holler

I didn't wanna

But she started to holler
So i had to hit it
Hit it
Hit it

Deep in the valley
In the trunk of an old car
In the back of a chevvy
I got sand in my mouth you got sand in your mouth
And you got sun in your eyes i got sun in your eyes
Blind blinded
And you wanted to get there
But i couldn't go faster i wanted to get there
But you couldn't go faster
So i started to hit it you couldn't go faster
So i started to hit it
I started to hit it hit it
Hit it
Hit it
Hit it

Coming down

Ieieieioooooaoaoaieeih!Check it out!

here we go to another candle I know
all the girls there playin' on a jelly roll
time to take a ride - time to take it in a midnite eye
and if you wanna go - get on below
pinking out the day - dreaming out the crazy way
finger on the love - it's all above
everywhere it's six-sex-six by luck
a satellite wish will make it just enough
you'll be making out with a witch in a coffee truck
time to rock the road - and tell the story of the jelly rollin'
dirty boots are on - hi di ho
pinking out the black - dreaming in a crack
Satan got her tongue - now it's undone
I got some dirty boots - yeah dirty boots
I got some dirty boots - baby
dirty boots
hey!

here it comes again - out of the rain
seems to have a new - kind of same
been it playing on a - simple rhyme
the site comes alive and - speaks the mind
it turns to me and - it turns to gold
it turns to see a - the fast lane slow

it's been a way too long
it's been the way I gone
it's a-coasting on
to the west star

looking out I thought I - saw it blink
coming on to me - like a silver eye
pick it up and - turn it on and
head on out to a - western starland

it's been a man and gone
now it's a singing song
like a western star
it's going my way

looking out I'm back in - time to stay
into the eastern - silent way
comes alive through - through and clearer
ghost arise to - dirty mirror

you've been away too long
it's been way too long
an eastern star is on
a disappearer

here it comes again - out of the rain
seems to have a new - kind of same
been it playing on a - simple rhyme

IT SIMPLY STATES, “YR DISCONNECTED BABY”
SEE HOW EASILY IT ALL SLIPS AWAY

THIS IS NOH DIRECTION

ANGELS TURN ON HEAVENS LIGHT

HURRY UP THE STAGE AWAITS YOU
DON’T FORGET MEMORIZE YR LINES
MISSED YR MARK NOW WE MEDICATE YOU
OUT OF STEP JUST CANT FIND THE TIME
WILL WE PASS THRU UNDETECTED
EVERYTHING RIGHT HERE INSIDE OUR FILE
NOT SO FREE TO BE UNPROTECTED
A SECRET MONA LISA HIDES BEHIND HER SMILE
-----------

Stand behind his drunken amp
Stand behind his light of love
Hear him yowl his bloody tounge
Hear him yell 4 blood and war

<i>[Chorus:]</i>
Do you believe in his sweet sensation
Do you believe in second chance
Do you believe in rapture babe

A terrible hit strikes today
A terrible hit for the parade
Burnin' eyes seek jesus comin
Jesus comes to pave the way

<i>[Chorus]</i>

Can you tell me what to feel
Open up yr tender soul
Can I drink yr drunken mercy
Wine burns the devils hole

<i>[Chorus]</i>

take one, to come
doctor's orders, no more borders
take one, make some
feeling bolder, no more disorder
mother's not to blame
she's feeling no pain
doesn't feel the drain
she says it's not her brain
all right, no wrong
she used to be cleanin', now she's just dreamin'
she's right, you're wrong
she thinks it's the weather, feels light as a feather
mother's such a mess
she forgets how to dress
she thinks she's lookin' her best
she's no longer depressed
take one, bake one
used to be tragic, now it's like magic
just one, for fun
mother's new pet, it's not hard to get
mother came home today
wearing a big bouquet
she threw her self away
she's taking up spanish ole

Single fold sick insert design in junk
Grocery bag sleeve all the colors drunk
Texts of confusion and joy
Pink plastic pressing for bratfink

That's right
He's gone
Wrapped up
Chiffon

Sealed tight
Hung up
Street mouth
Sad pup

Shards of sweet shine of voice and flute
Street mouth decodes the blue sking
Dude
Girlfriends will love the way we clip
Our split release on the thrashman

On top
A drop
Fake blood
Fresh mud

They're gone
For good
Except
This one

Howling scriptures to the mother earth
O mother Africa awake your son
To all the mommas with the money eyes
This kind of love comes as no surprise

Caught shadow
In sex meadow

Little darlings describe the scene
Purring notions of the dripping dream
We've been searching for the cream dream wax
Lathe killers make the meters crack

Caught shadow
In sex meadow

Purring notions of the dripping dream
The kinda girls with the money eyes
Howling scriptures to the mother earth
O mother Africa awake your son

Caught shadow
In sex meadow

Little darlings describe the scene
To all the mommas with the money eyes
Purring notions of the dripping dream
This kinda love comes in any size

Sensation shaking us from sleep
Hey Ethiopia were free
The dripping dream in cream-o-wax
Disk drops from yr hand and it cracks

Smile like a sun
back over time
crazy on you
pleasure is mine
i love you i love you i love you
what's your name?
i love you i love you i love you
what's your name?

here come through it
giving it up
going too far
try understand
i love you i love you i love you
what's your name?
i love you i love you i love you
what's your name?

whisper kiss me here
i'll tell you what i fear
whisper kisses up here
i'll tell you what i fear

come on home
just ain't fair
name of rock'n'roll
where love dies
couldn't find a soul
tell it like it is
deep down inside
drunken butterfly
i love you i love you i love you
what's your name?
i love you i love you i love you
what's your name?
i love you i love you i love you
what's your name?
i love you i love you i love you
what's your name?

Keep on running in the dark
Dude ranch dream has fallen apart
Stolen kisses let's pretend my friend
You play sick and I will mend
Let the action begin again
You be patient and I'll attend
Let's rehearse let's do it again
Dude ranch nurse yr brand new friend

Let nurse give you a shot
It's something to do
Took my pulse
Let nurse give you a shot
It's something to do
I could love you
I could have you
Deep sleep coming along
Like a newborn colt you found
I'll wrap it around with gauze
Dizzy reminder
Ouch, you found
Let nurse give you a shot
Don't sleep too long

You be cowboy and I'll allow
Let me ride you till you fall
Let's pretend there's nothing at all
Nobody knows the shape I'm in
Kiss me now it's just a sin
Nobody knows the shape I'm in

[Kim]
Nothing but a savage bird
in your face
in your land
the weight of you is greater than
forgot my pride
forgot my side [sight/size??]
don't bother to leave
there's no room outside
your sense of pride
nothing here but a savage bird

You go to my head.......

Mention of you.......

The very mention of you........

You go to my head........

Yeah, that's right now...

Right...

Okay, okay, I'm sorry...
I did go in there
And I did eat their porridge
And I sat in the chairs
The three chairs
And um, I did break a chair
And um, then I...
I went upstairs, I was feeling really tired
And there are these three beds there
And I laid down on one bed and it was too high
It was just too high...
So then, I um, you know, this ain't a big deal
I went and I laid in the middle-sized bed
And it was too soft
And I was so tired
And I got up and I went to the little bed
And I laid down
And you know it was just right...
And you know, I just fell asleep
And uh...
I'm sleeping
And then, like, suddenly
Somebody wakes me up
And they say "what are you doing in my bed?"
And I just got up and... I...
I just bolted
You know...
It just wasn't cool to say that
And I went to the forest so fast
And I never think back

(Illusion 002)
Notes: Captain Beefheart cover

[Lee]
me to you to me
thunderbolts caught easily
shouting truth peacefully
electricity

(turn it up)

high voltage man kids his night to bring the light to those who need-
to hide their shadow deep
though it's too bright find the light I know that friends don't mind-
just how you glow
midnight cowboys steers in black hit the dark road without a map to free
seek electricity seek electricity
midnight cowboys steers in black hit the dark road without a map to free
seek electricity seek electricity

lighthouse beacon straight ahead straight ahead across black sea to bring
seeking electricity

high voltage man kids his night to bring the light to those who need-
to hide their shadow deep
you are a shallow deed
high voltage man kids his night to bring the light to those who need-
to hide their insanity
you are insanity

seek electricity seek electricity seek electricity seek electricity-
seek electricity seek electricity seek electricity
seek electricity seek electricity

electricity

hatred
i hate the past

i can't see anything at all, all ii see is me
that's clear enough
and that's whats important, to see me

my eyes can focus
my brain is talking
looks preety good to me
my head's on straight, my girlfriend's beautiful
looks pretty good to me

sometimes i speak
tonight there's nothing to say
sometimes we freak
and laugh all day

hold these pages up to the light
see the jacknife inside of the dream
a railroad runs through the record store at night
coming in for the deep freeze

mary, a simple word, are you there in the country?
your eyes so full, your head so tight
can't you hear me?
remember out talk
that day on the phone?
i was the door, and you were the station
with shattered glass and miles between us
we still flew away in the conversation

my cup is full, and I feel okay
the world is dull, but not today

she think's she's a goddess
she says she talks to the spirits
i wonder if she can talk to herself?
if she can bear to hear it?

this is eric's trip
we've all come to watch him slip
he's slipping all the way to texas
can you dig it?

eric says 'the sky is blue'
i see with a glass eye
the pavement view
a shadow forming, across the fields rushing
thru me to you

we tore down the world, and put up four walls
i breathe in myth
i'm over the city, fucking the future
i'm high and inside your kiss

we can't see clearly
but what we see is alright
we make up what we can't hear
and then we sing all night

scattered pages and shattered lights
a jackknife and a dream
there's something moving over there on the right
like nothing I've never seen

Hatred
I hate the past
I can't see anything at all, all i see is me
That's clear enough
And that's whats important, to see me

In a free lane
Ghosts passing time
Heat rises
Lights thru the town
Blown soundscapes
Blue city eyes
Black lightning
New angel flies

Make a free line
To the northern sky
Holy rain falls
Ghosts burn to shine
Elevator
Reach for the light
Intuition
Free city rhymes
