***SPOILERS AHOY***



COBALT BLUE

Desert wind in a telephone box
Dial my numbers up, picks my locks
Picks his kind
To go and mingle in my mind

Here I am on the edge of Everytown / every town
You read my fortunes up, you lead it down
Lead me to land
Let it run right through my hand

CHORUS:
And it's nothing
Nothing you could know
Let it go
Nothing really (?) we could know

Motel bar, the dirty sulking moon
Turn my head up, let it all cocoon
Let it go
Nothing really (?) we could know

CHORUS (x2)




DEADMAN'S HAND

On our way to crush the revolution
Camped by a lake in the blackened lands
Dealing out love and retribution
Dealing out the Deadman's Hand
We've all known the pain
And we're all goin' on again and again

Empire's got you by the balls
And sleep keeps away the tear (?)
And it's calling you
Pulling you back here

On our way to crush the revolution
Lost in the caves of a used-up place
Night comes down with all its implication
Something brushin' against your face
We've all known the fear
And we're all gonna find more of it here

Empire's got you by the balls
And you wish that you'd never appeared
And it's pulling you
Pulling you back here

(Where are we)
(Where are you)

On the way to crush the revolution
Wilderness with its burning bush
The enemy who seeks our dissolution
All he needs is a little push
We've all known hurt
And we're all gonna find it here in this dirt

Empire's got you by the balls
And war keeps drawing near
And it's pulling you
Pulling you back here



HAPPENSTANCE (stolen from Fipster's disco page, with my additions/suggestions)

When the distant charge of love is felt
And the fruit is heavy on the vine
Rivers rushing as the snow it melts
I should take some time
Really make you mine

(??? [0:30] below) Happenstance
(??? [0:37] below) Such a charmer

Like an extinguished star
You're gone yet still remain
And you've taken it so far
Return to outer space

If I lay me beside you
Your golden hair frozen

(??? [1:19] below) Happenstance
(??? [1:26] below) Such a charmer

Close your eyes in the dark
And open up a door
You feel the energy arc
You're not here anymore

When the honeyed days of love return
And the king is drunk upon his throne
City's empty and the crystal burned
I should take some space
Be with you some place

When the hopeless nights of love have gone
And the spirits are still within the trees
And we're running back to Albion
I should take some chance
Given happenstance

(??? [3:41] below) Happenstance
(??? [3:48] below) Such a charmer
(??? [3:56] below)



SPACE SAVIOUR

My little lonely
She's my one and only
All the love just stone me
And I can't let it go

Like a siphon or straw
Something to adore
On the fatal flaw/floor
And I can't let it go

Oh my little saviour
On her good behaviour
All the self she gave ya
Now you can't let it go

Like a needle or tack
When she's givin' you back
And the stains just go black
And you can't let her go

And I gotta get up
And I gotta get on
And I gotta get off
And I gotta get out

And I gotta get up
And I gotta get on
And I gotta get off
And I can't let it go

My little heart
with a cosmic handshake
Hammer on til daybreak
I can't let it go

Like a Zorro or zealot
bite it just to feel it
she gonna reveal it
then you can't let it go

Oh my little wonder
Makes you stop to ponder
Makes me kinda fonder
I can't let it go

Like I live and I learn
Like a Chinese burn
Just wait til you turn
And I can't let it go

I gotta get up
I gotta get on
I gotta get off
I gotta get out

I gotta get up
I gotta get on
I gotta get off
And I can't let it go

My little panda
I don't understand her
With her natural grandeur
I can't let her go

Like a trick or tornado, no
She ain't afraid
Nothing gets delayed
And she won't let it go

My little golden
Below and behold (?)
Only serves to embolden
And I can't let it go

Like a fraction or flake
I do it all for her sake
I do it all for her sake
Then I can't let it go, no, no

And I gotta get up
And I gotta get on
And I gotta get off
And I gotta get out

And I gotta get up
And I gotta get on
And I gotta get off
But I can't let it go

Can't let it go

Baby don't say no
Please I can't let it…
I can't let it go

Baby don't say no
Can't let it go
Can't let it go

Can't let it go



ON ANGEL STREET

Sunday disappears into a fog
Darkness invites us all inside
To hide amongst the lamplight radial glow

A shadow in the pool
Winter in the wind
A message in the fallen leaves

Cruise down to the plaza in your Merc
Never really know how or where to go
Blow me down, you're outside a bank on Angel Street

I arrive but never leave
You leave but never stay
It kinda reminds me of the salad days

I saw your brother during lunch
I saw at once that he was lost and he was mad
He had been standing in the rain to get some snow

But the snow it couldn't fall
The people all go home
And he just kinda stood there, helplessly

You should change the message on your machine
So sad, so strange baby to hear my name
Makes me sad to hear you say that we're not home

And the line it just goes dead
And the trail it just goes cold
I guess that story's told, anyway



SUNKEN SUN

I drowned in a river that had run dry
I drank a sea of gold
I shivered like a stone in the great unknown
No, not unknown but just untold

I dreamed I saw the minotaur
I dreamed I was his twin
It seemed I tore some kind of door
Coz now he can get right back in

I don't wanna talk about it anymore
And if I had to do it again, I 'd give you what for

I watched the sullen (?) sun shrink
And the lily (?) run out of steam
Eternity loomed in my (???) room
I saw you once in some kind of dream

I had a girl in the underworld
She was a spirited little thing
She was so cute, oh, you should've seen Pluto
She opened up her heart to sing
I don't wanna talk about it anymore
And if I had to do it again, I 'd give you what for

I ripped up my return ticket
I hurled it into the sky
I knelt down, I kissed the ground
I knew then it was your turn to fly



LUNAR

All that he wore was a fine-toothed comb
Only (???) on the night
All that it was just one pound of flesh
And you didn't get it right

All that it was, was a cannibal buzz
Leading you on, day on day
All that it means was an old pile of seams
An old, sour Beaujolais

All that it wore was a little brittle slip (?)
Drooping right over my head
All that it says is there's nothing left to bless
All that it says is it's death



OPERETTA

A song about you
Your inner song (you're in a song?)
Are you gonna hear them
Or just ride along (or just right a wrong/right or wrong?)

{SK / MWP}Where's the boys all dressed in green?
{SK / MWP}In the gap that lies between / {TP}Won't somebody else have dreamed (?)
{SK / MWP}Where's the girls all dressed in white? / {TP} Of all the pretty things I've seen (?)
{SK / MWP}In the deep (bowl? heart?) of the night / {TP} Wasted all my tasting time (?)
{SK / MWP}Where's the men all dressed in black? / {TP} (??????????)
{SK / MWP}Where's the men all dressed in black?
{SK / MWP}Where's the ladies dressed in red?
{SK / MWP}Over dancing with the dead

A song about you
Just a song
Are you stranger still
Or do you belong

{SK 1} / {SK 2}
Life is short / Phosphorescent, (???) the sun
So don't be long / Turn to face it as the comets come
Use your free will / A cloudy blanket, a moving storm
Or get trapped in a song / As love thaws

In summertime
Umbrella trees down by the sea
Limbs like men to bend low
You turn and you see

Music plays
Space between the notes full of haze
Piano, drums and trumpets
Just like the old days

A song about you
Your inner song (you're in a song?)
Are you gonna hear them
Or just right or wrong (or just right a wrong/ ride along?)

In summertime
Picking up an insistent, distant beat
Beachcomber come home now
Come in from the heat

Interweaving leaves
Once she was a skeptic, twice she believes
The wind that thinned and skinned us (?)
Underneath

{SK / MWP}Where's the boys all dressed in green?
{SK / MWP}In the gap that lies between / {TP}Won't somebody else have dreamed (?)
{SK / MWP}Where's the girls all dressed in white? / {TP} Of all the pretty things I've seen (?)
{SK / MWP}In the deep (bowl? heart?) of the night / {TP} Wasted all my tasting time (?)
{SK / MWP}Where's the men all dressed in black? / {TP} (??????????)
{SK / MWP}Where's the men all dressed in black?
{SK / MWP}Where's the ladies dressed in red?
{SK / MWP}Over dancing with the dead

I really need a decent sig.
