Hello,
I love you
Won't you tell me your name
Hello
I love you
Let me jump in your game

She's walkin' down the street
Blind to every eye she meets
Do you think you'll be the guy
To make the queen of the angels sigh

She holds her head so high
Like a statue in the sky
Her arms are wicked and her legs are long
When she moves my brain screams out this song

Sidewalk crouches at her feet
Like a dog that begs for somethin' sweet
Do you hope to make her see, you fool
Do you hope to pluck this dusky jewel

. . .


She lives on love street
lingers long on love street
she has a house and garden
i would like to see what happens

she has robes and
she has monkies
lazy diamond-studded flunkies
she has wisdom and
knows what to do

she has me and she has you

i see you live on love street
there`s a store where the creatures meet
i wonder what they do in there
summer sunday and a year
I guess i like it fine
so far

she lives on love street
lingers long on love street
she has a house and garden
i would like to see what happens


. . .


Not to touch the earth
Not to see the sun
Nothing left to do, but
Run, run, run
Let's run
Let's run

House upon the hill
Moon is lying still
Shadows of the trees
Witnessing the wild breeze
C'mon baby run with me
Let's run

Run with me
Run with me
Run with me
Let's run

The mansion is warm, at the top of the hill
Rich are the rooms and the comforts there
Red are the arms of luxuriant chairs
And you won't know a thing till you get inside

Dead president's corpse in the driver's car
The engine runs on glue and tar
Come on along, not goin' very far
To the East to meet the Czar

Run with me
Run with me
Run with me
Let's run

Whoa!

Some outlaws lived by the side of a lake
The minister's daughter's in love with the snake
Who lives in a well by the side of the road
Wake up, girl, we're almost home

Ya, c'mon!

We should see the gates by mornin'
We should be inside the evenin'

Sun, sun, sun
Burn, burn, burn
Soon, soon, soon
Moon, moon, moon
I will get you
Soon!
Soon!
Soon!

I am the Lizard King
I can do anything

Summer's almost gone
Summer's almost gone
Almost gone
Yeah, it's almost gone
Where will we be
When the summer's gone?

Morning found us calmly unaware
Noon burn gold into our hair
At night, we swim the laughin' sea
When summer's gone
Where will we be
Where will we be
Where will we be

Morning found us calmly unaware
Noon burn gold into our hair
At night, we swim the laughin' sea
When summer's gone
Where will we be

Summer's almost gone
Summer's almost gone
We had some good times
But they're gone
The winter's comin' on
Summer's almost gone




. . .


Winter time winds blow cold to season
Fallin' in love I'm hopin' to be
Wind is so cold, is that the reason
Keeping you warm, your hands touching me

Chorus
Come with me dance my dear
Winter's so cold this year
You are so warm
My winter time love to be

Winter time winds blue and freezin'
Comin from Northernly storms in the sea
Love has been lost is that the reason
Tryin desperately to be free

Chorus

. . .


Wait until the war is over
And we're both a little older.
The unknown soldier.

Breakfast where the news is read.
Television children fed.
Unborn living. Living dead.
Bullet strikes the helmet's head

And it's all over
For the unknown soldier.
It's all over
For the unknown soldier.

hup
hup
hup ho he hup
hup
hup
hup ho he hup
comp'nee.... halt!
present arms!

Make a grave for the unknown soldier
Nestled in your hollow shoulder.
The unknown soldier.

Breakfast where the news is read.
Television children fed.

Bullet strikes the helmet's head

And, it's all over.
The war is over.
It's all over.
The war is over.
Well, all over, baby.
All over, baby.
Oh, over, yeah.
All over, baby..

Carry me, caravan.
Take me away.
Take me to Portugal.
Take me to Spain.
Andalusia
With fields full of grain,
I have to see you
Again and again.
Take me, Spanish caravan.
Yes, I know you can.

Trade winds find Galleons
Lost in the sea.
I know where treasure
Is waiting for me.
Silver and gold
In the mountains of Spain,
I have to see you
Again and again.
Take me, Spanish caravan.
Yes, I know you can.

My wild love went ridin'
She rode all the day
She wrote to the devil
And asked him to pay
The devil was wiser
It's time to repent
He asked her to give back
The money she spent

My wild love went ridin'
She rode to the sea
She gathered together
Some shells for her head
She rode and she rode on
She rode for a while
Then stopped for an evenin'
And lay her head down

She rode on to Christmas
She rode to the farm
She rode to Japan
And we entered a town
By this time the river
Had changed one degree
She asked for the people
To let her go free

My wild love is crazy
She screams like a bird
She moans like a cat
When she wants to be heard
My wild love went ridin'
She rode for an hour
She rode and she rested
And then she rode on
Ride, c'mon

. . .


We could be so good together
Ya, so good together
We could be so good together
Ya, we could, I know we could

Tell you lies
I tell you wicked lies
Tell you lies
Tell you wicked lies

Tell you 'bout the world that we'll invent
Wanton world without lament
Enterprise, expedition
Invitation and invention

Ya, so good together
Ah, so good together
We could be so good together
Ya, we could, know we could

Alright!

Do da do do do do do bup bup de day

We could be so good together
Ya, so good together
We could be so good together
Ya, we could, know we could

Tell you lies
Tell you wicked lies
Tell you lies
Tell you wicked lies

The time you wait subtracts the joy
Beheads the angels you destroy
Angels fight, angels cry
Angels dance and angels die

Ya, so good together
Ah, but so good together
We could be so good together Ya, we could, know we could

Please believe me
The river told me
Very softly
Want you to hold me, oooh.

Free fall flow, river flow
On and on it goes
Breath under water 'till the end;
Free fall flow, river flow
On and on it goes
Breath under water 'till the end
Yes, teh river knows.

Please believe me
If you don't need me
I'm going, but i need a little time
I promised I would drown myself
in mysticated wine.

Please believe me
The river told me
Very softly
Want you to hold me. oooh.

I'm going, but i need a little time
I promised I would drown myself
in mysticated wine.

Free fall flow, river flow
On and on it goes
Breath under water 'till the end;
Free fall flow, river flow
On and on it goes
Breath under water 'till the end.
