I dreamt that I was dreaming, I was wired to a clock,
Tickled by the minute hand tick tock tick tock,
I dream I'm on a train and it is making music,
I don't remember getting on clickity click clickity click,
I dreamt that I was very tall, I was bigger than King Kong,
I heard the bells the bells a'ringing a'ding dong ding dong,
I dreamt that I was sitting in the devil's company,
He gave a solemn promise fe fi fi fun for me,
I dreamt that I was chasing the monster out of me,
I caught him in the corner ha ha hee hee hee,
I dream I'm in a tunnel between here and now,
Scooby do-be where would you be bow wow wow wow,
I dream I'm at a crossroads no place left to go,
I look in each direction eenie meanie miny mo,
I dream I am an ostrich head deep in the sand,
There is a rhythm that's a playing fantastic elastic band,
I dreamt that the bogeyman went down on Mr Spock
Sugar was a flowing sock it to 'em sock
I dreamt I saw a moo cow jump across the moon
Just a flight of fantasy zoom zoom zoom
I dreamt I met a spaceman he took me to his ship,
You know he cut my hair off snip snip snip
I dreamt that I was sleeping asleep for heaven's sake
The dream that I was dreaming caused me to awake
I dreamt that I was way up I was standing on the top
With the feeling I was falling bop beep bop
I dreamt that I was jumping in a circus through a hoop,
Someone saw the lights off shoo-be-doop
I dreamt that I was fast I was never shutting up,
I was going in a hurry I was giddy-up giddy-up
I dream I'm in the park I'm standing in the nudey,
I was getting what I wanted tootie fruity tootie fruity,
I dreamt that I was dreaming, I was wired to a clock,
Tickled by the minute hand tick tock tick tock,
I dream I'm on a train and it is making music,
I don't remember getting on clickity click clickity click,
I dreamt that I was very tall, I was bigger than King Kong,
I heard the bells the bells a'ringing a'ding dong ding dong,
I dream I am an astrich head deep in the sand,
There is a rhythm that's a playing fantastic elastic band,
Fe fi fi fun for me.

Do you like my tight sweater?
See how it fits my body
Do you like my tight sweater?

Into the night I go day for night ...
I know what you talk about in your sleep wrap yourself around me
Not just a passer by I'm gonna stay awhile,
I like your peep show magnetized I saw you in the window,
I've been watching you don't know what else to do,
Trust me I'm sensitive intensitive I'll never let you go,
No need to be afraid release yourself to me I got that heart-ache,
Hubble bubble you know my trouble I saw you on your own no need to be alone,
let me levitate relax resonate turn off the lights,
Day for night ....
I saw your eyes on fire the desire won't release you,
I go where you go to I have to follow you,
So put your honey where your mouth is look behind you,
Relax and let me hypnotize I'd like to touch mmmm,
Standing in the shadows I've had my fill of it,
Too close to the light just for the thrill of it,
Hubble buble you know my trouble turn out the lights,
Day for night...

I can't help myself ...
I am the doughnut that you hold up
And I never sold up in a pie,
The hoot boot's so fly,
I always try to beat the rest to impress,
I put my tongue in my trouser press,
I got the toots baby you got the fruits,
Fruit got the loot lady you got the boots,
Don't be a mook don't get the spook,
Don't be a cry baby I only said maybe,
Shmoozin I was pressuing when like a catapult,
I did a summersault,
Going down the lazy river,
three fingers deliver,
I can't help myself...,
The reverb you just heard is resounding in the surrounding area,
It's getting scarier I've got the amp damp mangled,
got my tingle in tangle let me see what I can wangle,
In the bermuda triangle,
Gravity will be the death of me,
Terminal velocity follow the follow the vaper,
One hundred purcent proof caper,
Burst the barricades but don't drink the lemonade,
Martinis by beeard man an artizan down at the can can,
And oh yes he can can fat,
Fredies cat in seven lead boots whiskey for the whiskers the shot sure shoots,
She sells sea shells sea shells on the sea shore,
Is it true what mummy said you can't come back no more,
Oh no no no no singing a song about nothing,
Talk through my belly button,
At the inn of seventh happiness more or less,
I found you on the floor saying more more more,
Peel back the skin sonar beats like quaver,
Small bananas selected for flavour,
I can't help myself....

Couldn't carry her
Away

. . .


Spikey lady shiny queen don't you tell them what you've seen,
Plastic people silicon never let them in your home,
Don't become a middle man keep your mouth shut if you can,
Don't you tell them what you know they will go anyway the wind blows,
Be my best friend be my baby I'll be there for you maybe,
Don't get on the roller coaster ya burn your fingers on the toasters,
Just a fair weather friend gone when the summer end,
They will look into your eyes tell you pretty perfume lies,
Slinky slimy lotus eaters jeepers creepers get a load of those peepers,
Talking all that mumbo jumbo people pass in solo limbo,
See them slip see them slide but have you seen the nasty side,
With all the smiling and kissing listen to the hiss hiss hissing,
She slip she slide she don't know why she hide,
Dizzy little missy with a twinkle in her eye bye bye,
Finger lickin' good kill you if she could dig it when you're down send in the clown,
Don't let them poke don't let them peek their friendly chat is cheap
You look so fine you look so hip you're styling makes me trip,
Take your place if they could these are the people in your neighbourhood,
She slips she slides she don't know why she hide,
Poking peeking sneaking cheating sniffing sliding,
A running and hiding,
Creeping crawling feeling and mauling,
Fickle little tickles brains like pickles,
She slip she slides she don't know why she hide,
Dizzy little missy with a twinkle in her eye bye bye,
Finger lickin' good kill you if she could dig it when you're down send in the clown,
She slip she slid she don't know why she hide,
Dizzy little missy with a twinkle in her eye bye bye,
Finger lickin' good kill you if she could dig it when you're down send in the clown.

The enemy
Is gonna get me
But not today
On my horsey

. . .


I can't control this urge so I risk what I wager,
I lost to a chicken shit never was panty sniffer,
Got my eye on a cool hand and I wonder about his dog of a day,
Wanted to be a big shot real hot down with the domino,
You know calling on instict calling the bluff,
Telling a tale ten stories high to the operative,
I figured the numbers underpressure I played by the seat of my pants,
Then fate took a twist quietly wiley faking it waiting for a fluke,
Waiting for a sign by now boggle eyed,
If I believe I will receive leaning on the ever lasting tree,
Hanging in the hands of fate down with the domino,
I'm no, down with the domino, I'm no casino casanova with the good luck eyes,
it's hard to tell who's friend or foe when you go down like the domino,
One track mind just digging 'till I find,
The gold at the end of the rainbow just keep on going,
Though twisted up inside her fool heart takes over and jumps on for the ride,
Down with the domino,
I need the roulette to make me forget,
Rotating random eyes roll in tandem,
Lady look illusive but I do what I can better be a day as a lion,
Than a life time as a lamb down with the domino, down, you know.

God am I the only sane one around here,
Doesn't anybody else find this queer,
Oh shit oh,
A wizard approaches,
A reward for the weirdo,
Party weirdo ...
Countless times you have fallen weird one,
I'm gonna ask the judge for a party crack down,
A weirdo wack down hangin out on streets in cars in bars,
Outside my window in my pool in my bed in my head,
Party weirdo ... I'm simply ask the judge ... hello hello ...
Oh but somehow someway somewhere you get back on your partied,
Out feet, hello hello, party weirdo ...
It's just so exotic you got no where left to go, Party weirdo,
you will ask yourself who am I what am I where am I,
You will answer I am no-one probably nothing,
I know that I'm nowhere you poor crass animal ok I'm new around town,
Can anybody tell me what all these party weirdos are all about,
Someone says you must go there and check out the party weirdos,
Now all I see is a lot of young people all mixed up,
It's just not fair countless times you have fallen weird one partied out yet,
You might expect one's weirdness to subside,
But it does not subside it sort of grows and grows and grows man,
You can just go find somewhere else to go 'cos you're just not welcome here any more.

. . .


You weird

. . .


Humm, humm humm ...
Flash light in the dark of night,
Laissez faire devil may care quick silver,
The feline breed your ego feed,
I'm a tease if you please an infuser,
Oh but you know 'bout the juju,
I coluded with the lucid a creator,
Come to my place for some good taste,
Rise the amorous to the rapturous alligator,
Hum humm humm ...
If you please,
Call for me by humming this tune,
I only come when there's a full moon,
Ruby red lips painted finger tips,
Make your sweet heart cry and your best friends try,
Facinate like a temptress the caress,
Leaves you languishing exhilarate,
A tornado if you say so,
And I shake like a quake captivate,
Humm humm humm ...
Call for me by humming this tune,
I only come when there's a full moon.

He was a cheeky monkey

Sniverling little bunny bouncing up and down,
Scummy little creatures,
Run them out of town,
In the tiny tunnels scuffling under ground,
Toxic little bunny can always be found,
Danger evil rodent,
Multiplying every day,
Bunny taking over,
Get on your knees and pray,
Filthy fluffy creatures,
Teeth as sharp as knives,
The longeared ones are coming,
Run run run for your lives,
Killa bunny is a coming,
Killa bunny on his way,
Killa bunny is a coming,
Are you hearing what I say.

. . .


Do not fear me,
I bring no harm,
No one knows where I came from,
I walk on water all day long,
No one knows how far I came,
No one even knows my name,
I sometimes sing as I float,
No one ever hears a note,
I sometimes move from place to place,
No one ever sees my face,
I can't touch I can't weep I can't taste I can't sleep,
I appear I disappear I reappear I'm getting near,
I'm tired of living in my brain,
I feel no joy I feel no pain,
I don't live I just exist,
I need to know the life I missed,
I'm the only one host I'm this town,
I'm the only ghost in the lost and found,
I'm the only one if you look around,
Reappear I'm getting near.

. . .


What is a god of phoney creation,
Where am I going with no destination,
What if the fish came from the sea,
What if my lover made me feel free,
What if my intake caused revelation,
What if the point was reincarnation,
What if my shoes do'nt match my jacket,
If it's not working why don't you smack it,
What if your mamma said you were fat,
If you are lost find where your at,
What is a number without any time,
You can't get higher with nothing to climb,
Why have a body if you ain't got a mind,
What is a searcher with nothing to find,
Why is the traffic refusing to stop,
Why climb the ladder if you can't reach the top,
Where is the what if the what is in why,
Where is the what if the what is in why
Where is the what if the what is in why,
What do you dream of when you sleep at night,
Wee how the blind man fills up with light,
What is a bird with nowhere to fly,
How can you leave and not say goodbye,
What is a hunter with nothing to find,
What is the goodness without the unkind,
When did the outfit fall out of fashion,
When did the lover run out of passion,
My reincarnation time a phoney creation rhyme,
With no destination mine my information's fine,
Why did the voice say don't step on the floor,
Why did the sign say so float through the door,
What is a god of phoney creation,
Where am I going with no destination,
What if the fish came from the sea,
What if my lover made me feel free,
What if my intake caused revelation,
What if the point was reincarnation,
What if my shoes don't match my jacket,
If it's not working why don't you smack it,
What if your mamma said you were fat,
If you are lost find where you're at,
Where is the what if the what is in why,
Where is the what if the what is in why,
Where is the what if the what is in why,
How did the loser get to be rich,
What is a saleman with nothing to pitch,
When did the fool het to be king,
Why did you leave when they asked you to sing,
Why loose belief if you got a dream,
What is a train that ran out of steam,
what is a spy with no-one to spy,
On who do you sleep with nothing to lie on,
What if the fruit don't fall from the tree,
What if these questions just won't let you be,
Why waste your time looking for proof,
What if the answer is never the truth.

. . .


It was a long night and a tall story
I nearly died of fright
Who shot the go go dancer?
Will we ever know?
I don't know
