fragile rare occasion
out of chaos a creation
binding into one form
lucid drunkeness
aiming truth and openess
baby you are a joy
I want you free when you grow boy
revive the old idea that we carry

binding into one form
lucid drunkeness
aiming truth and openess
baby you are a joy
nothingless
truth and openess
nothingless
but truth and openess

revive the old idea that we carry


. . .


Where it had been left
hundreds of years ago
extract from the depth
is but a setting sun paradise is scace
in this light that won't shine
what is our earthly task
but a worthy design?

some held it in sight
for scattered it may have been
they're ready to fight
in a priceless inkling
the request is here
ready to resurrect
what else can we do but recover the project

our earthly design
can be so detached
what crushes our desire
not to be trapped
when the higher spheres
tell us to and not to
everyone agrees
demanding more veto
our earthly design
can we be so detached
what crushes our desire
not to be trapped?

. . .



I pick up by the handful
the somber heap at my feet
eyes closed to see the hopeful
trusting my deepest instinct

I pick up by the handfull
the somber heap at my feet
eyes closed to see the hopeful
trusting my deepest instinct

but I go on
dawning light
task of hope
at last dare
to raise my eyes

I saw the ship in the stars
strong of glittering fleet
bringing light to the new born

I pick up by the handful
Lyricsthe somber heap at my feet
eyes closed to see the hopeful
trusting my deepest instinct

at last dare to raise my eyes
I saw the ship in the stars
strong of glittering fleet
bringing light to the new born

in a dawn light
task of hope
these are stars

chassez le
naturel
pas la peine
de ses ailes
il revient

lassez le
dans les veines
suivre comm
l'eau de seine
son chemin

new realities are conditions
much to little for us to suffer
because we don't know any better
there are a hundred ways to fall in step

new realities are conditions
much to little for us to suffer
because we don't know any better
there are a hundred ways to fall in step
because for the past two hundred years
the wine drunk and the freedom proclaimed
o are dubious and laughable
waiting to yield a new use of life
scatter,
scatter brained by
the sins,
sins of silence
scatter,
scatter brained by
the sins,
sins of silence

la lumiere des jours
d'automne qui pene
tre irremediablement
et sans violence
la lumiere d'automne
fragile dans son incandescence
elle brille comme
une force qui decoiffe l'ame

la lumiere des jours
d'automne etale
les ombres du plus qu elles puissent se rependre
la lumiere d'automne
qui aspire a la transcendance
elle eblouit comme
une force qui decoiffe l'ame

la lumiere des jours
d'automne qui pene
tre irremediablement
et sans violence
la lumiere d'automne
fragile dans son incandescence
elle brille comme
une force qui decoiffe l'ame

suffer you little children,
remain passive and fearful
suffer don't grow out of it
revel, and let's celebrate
the poor love of this poor world
the sad love the vampire

we who're young and beautiful
we who can stand up and walk
our lives we will learn to control
we who're young and beautiful
respond revolution when
we hear the word suffering

Lyricsits our lives we learn to control

respond with revolution

lonely walker humanoid
listening to forgotten sounds
tasting smells and colours
hiking mounts crossing rivers
humble biped you've come undone
you detached the mechanical
freedom it inspires
fusing with your desire

primal hiker lonely walker
rediscovering your own pace
left here to go elsewhere
abandon all impatience

reposess the senses
impression of freedom
time doesn't know itself
has mingle path and dream
animal survivor
you belong to nature
reposess the senses
Lyricsimpression of freedom
time doesn't know itself
has mingle path and dream

animal survivor
you belong to nature
reposess the senses
impression of freedom
time doesn't know itself
has mingle path and dream
animal survivor
you belong to nature
dreams of return to nature
barred with satellite dishes

vois la vague se creuse comme la braise dans le vent
vois la c'est ici qu a son aise il s'enfuit le temps,
par moment

quand le temps qui passe qui s'egard ne se retrouve pas
c'est la lumiere du sombre regard qui qui de mes pas,
vain combat

vois la vague se creuse comme la braise dans le vent
vois la c'est ici qu a son aise il s'enfuit le temps,
et pourtant

quand il se devoile
l'eblouissement
de la flamme
au corps nu

quand le temps qui passe qui s'egard ne se retrouve pas
c'est la lumiere du sombre regard qui qui de mes pas,
vain combat

Lyricsvois la vague se creuse comme la braise dans le vent
vois la c'est ici qu a son aise il s'enfuit le temps,


et pourtant
quand il se devoile
l'eblouissement
de la flamme
au corps nu
s'arrache a la nuit
ou scintille l'ame
du temps devolu
de la flamme
au corps nu

c'est la flamme
au corps nu
celle quschintille l'ame
le temps est devlu
la y brille une flamme
le nageur n'a plus peur
il plonge sous la lumiere
vit dans les elements
eperdu dans la mer
sa bouche veut le sel



. . .



c'est l'image qui,
vit dans le sang
elle enfante eternellement
aneantit toute la vie
fusion de mondes universels

de l'esprit et du sang
de l'esprit et du sang

et du sang
source de bonheur
qui c'est la fougue de la vie
where's the father
Ou'est sa voir?
l'autre qu'on aime la fene tre du soi
qui mele et qui associe les tendances

cours vers la mer
te donne une fin et un debut
reconnais l'appel eperdu

Lyricsde l'esprit et du sang
de l'esprit et du sang

le rapport a la mort
qui c'est la fougue de la vie

de l'esprit et du sang
de l'esprit et du sang



. . .



all the women
who understand
how natural
and good it is
to bare all clothes
and bring the smile of knowledge,
try the freedom
that comes with it

with a smile,
trumpets and drums
the desire
for meaning comes,
with a smile,
trumpets and drums
the desire
for meaning comes,
...
roaring inside her woman and anger
roaring inside her woman and ire

roaring inside her woman and anger
roaring inside her woman and ire


. . .



ou est la liberte de la femme
a l'abris dans ses appartements

porquoi vouloir proteger nos dames
cacher leurs corps en s'en excusant
portant c'est bon
la liberte
au plus profond
de la sensation

ou est la liberte de la femme
a l'abris dans ses appartements

ou est la liberte de la femme
un soupire d'homme ne jette pas de flamme
est-elle si febrile que meme les mots
la font s'eclater en mille morceaux

expression libre
au cou robuste
l'esprit ou vibre
ce qu il y'ade plus juste

ou est la liberte de la femme
un regard d'homme ne jette pas de lame


. . .


je donnerais cher
pour etre a nouveau
asise sur un banc
au parc avec toi
le fond de mon cour
etait radiation
la toutes les couleurs
une revelation
le temps s'est age
et la j'ai vu
combien tes levres
sont desirables
l'impalpable est
devenu matiere
il s'est clotie
contre le vide
la tendresse aboutie
la violente carresse
qui reveille
dans mon etre
chavire
une enigme

. . .



led astray
before the
fragile defense of words
come and play
bring the stars
play in the milky night

led astray
before the
fragile defense of words
come and play
bring the stars
play in the milky night

Mon desir de l' avenir
....
Il s' etend a l' enfant
....
Sans savoir a l' avance
De quoi donc il va s' agir
Meme si ca semble etrange
Le monde sourit quand il change
La violence est troublante
Pourtant parfois bien utile
Elle libere et lascere
Les noeuds de la convention
L' energie de nos corps
Et la brulante passion
La recherche du vrai


N'est pas si du tout facile
Se chercher, se trouver
Savoir se laisser aller
Mettre a terre les obstacles
Ou se rebelle le chemin
(might be "revele", not sure here)
Mettre un terme au spectacle
Reprendre les choses en main
A quoi bon ecouter
Des verites inchangees

Dans sa reponse
J' ai trouve l' etrange verite
L' intensite d' attirance
Erotique et rebelle

. . .


L: All this violence is puzzling
Maybe the law should intervene.
M: All this violence is threatening
Hate is in need of censoring.

L+M: Ban hate and violence for our convenience (x2)
(Repeat once)

L: Don't we all know the dangers
Of two conflicting viewpoints?
M: An active troublemaker (?)
Banning the flame of dissent
L+M: So much aggravation!
L: To all haters: We'll create some laws to stop you.
M: You're the danger; you really shouldn't be allowed
to...

L: They piss on morality!
M: They detest humanity!
L: Those savages should be banned!
M: They're so deeply offensive!
L+M: Somebody shut them up!

(Throughout the following section Mary (I think) sings
something like: "once you catch them, kill them, kill
them")

L: ?????????
They'll still be full of ??? shit (?)
M: But it's handy,
We'll blame it on human nature.
(Repeat from "They piss on... to "Somebody shut them
up!)

L: We'll censor the hell out of you...
M: We'll coerce evil out of you...
L: We'll cut you're tongue if we have to...
M: You're the baddies and we hate you...
(Repeat once)
