- Take these hands they're good for
nothing
You know these hands have never worked a day
Take these boots they're going nowhere
You know these boots they don't want to stray
You got my head filled with songs
You got my shoelaces undone
Take my shirt go on take it off me
You can tear it up
If you can tie me down
DO YOU FEEL LOVED?
DO YOU FEEL LOVED?
Take the colours of my imagination
Take the scent hanging in the air
Take this tangle of a coversation
And turn it into your own prayer
With my fingers as you want them
With my nails under your hide
With my teeth at your back
And my tongue to tell you the sweetest
lies
DO YOU FEEL LOVED?
DO YOU FEEL LOVED?
And it looks like the sun but it
feels like the rain
Love's a bully pushing shoving
In the belly of a woman
Heavy rhythm taking over
To stick together
A man and a woman
Stick together
Man and woman
Stick together...
DO YOU FEEL LOVED?
DO YOU FEEL LOVED?
AND IT LOOKS LIKE THE SUN
BUT IT FEELS LIKE THE
AND THERE'S HEAT IN THE SUN TO
SEE US THROUGH THE RAIN
- lookin' for to save my save my soul
lookin' in the places where no flowers grow
lookin' for to fill that GOD shaped hole
mother mother sucking rock and roll
(been around the back... been around the front)
holy dunc, spacejunk comin' in for
the splash
white dpoes on punk staring into
the flash
lookin' for baby Jesus under the
trash
mother mother suckin' rock and
roll
mother (scat singing) rock and
roll
mother am i still your son,
you know i've waited for so long
to hear you say so
mother you left and made me someone
now i'm still a child but no one
tells me no
lookin' for a sound that's gonna
drown out the world
lookin' for the father of my two
little girls
got the swing got the sway got
my straw in lemonade
still looking for the face I had
before the world was made
mother mother sucking rock and
roll
bubble poppin' sugar droppin' rock
and roll
(scat singing)
woo me sister
move me brother
soothe me mother
rule me father
show me mother
days passin
around each other
- Nobody else here baby no one else
here to blame
No one to point the finger... it's just you and me and the rain
Nobody made you do it, no one put words in your mouth
Nobody here taking orders when love took a train heading south
It's the blind leading the blond
It's the stuff the stuff of country songs
HEy IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS
AND IF GOD WILL SEND A SIGN
AND IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS
Would everything be alright?
God has got his phone off the hook
babe would he even pick up if he could?
It's been a while since we saw
that child hangin' round this neighbourhood
See His mother dealing in a doorway
see Father Christmas with a begging bowl
Jesus sister's eyes are blister
... THE HIGH STREET never looked so low
It's the blind leading the blond
It's the cops collecting for the
cons
So where is the hope and where
is the faith ... and the love?
What's that you say to me
Does love... light up your Christmas
tree?
The next minute you're blowing
a fuse
And the cartoon network turns into
the news
HEY IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS
AND IF GOD WILL SEND A SIGN
WELL IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS
WHERE DO WE GO
Jesus never let me down you know
Jesus used to show me the score
Then they put Jesus in show business
now it's hard to get in the door
It's the stuff it's the stuff of
country songs
But I guess it was something to
go on
HEY IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS
I SURE COULD USE THEM HERE RIGHT
NOW
WELL IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS
WHERE DO WE GO...
- Summer stretching on the grass...
summer dresses pass
In the shade of a willow tree creeps a crawling over me
Over me and over you stuck together with God's glue
It's going to get stickier too...
It's been a long hot summer
let's go undercover
Don't try too hard to think... don't think at all
I'm not the only one starin' at
the sun
Afraid of what you'd find if you
took a look inside
Not just deaf and dumb i'm staring
at the sun
Not the only one who's happy to
go blind
There's an insect in your ear if
you scratch it won't disappear
It's gonna itch and burn and sting
Do you want to see what the scratching
brings
Waves that leave me out of reach
Breaking on your back like a beach...
Will we ever live in peace?
Cause those that can't do often
have to
Those that can't do often have
to... preach
To the ones staring at the sun...
Afraid of what you'll find if you
took a look inside
Not just deaf and dumb... staring
at the sun
I'm not the only one who'd rather
go blind
Intransigence is all around... military
is still in town
Armour plated suits and ties...
daddy just won't say goodbye
Referee won't blow the whistle
God is good but will HE listen
I'm nearly great
But there's something I'm missing
I left in the duty free
Though you never really belonged
to me
You're not the only one staring
at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find if you
stepped back inside
I'm not sucking my thumb I'm staring
at the sun
Not the only one who's happy to
go blind
- She feels the ground is giving way
Bur she thinks we're better off that way
The more you take the less you feel
The less you know the more you believe
The more you have the more it takes today"
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
SHE DOESN'T CARE WHAT IT'S WORTH
SHE'S LIVING LIKE IT'S THE LAST
NIGHT ON EARTH
She's not waiting on a saviour to
come
She's at a bus-stop with the NEWS
OF THE WORLD
And the sun sun here it comes
She's not waiting for anyone
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
she knows just what it's worth
SHE'S LIVING LIKE IT'S THE LAST
NIGHT ON EARTH
Slipping away..slip slide.. |the clock tells her that time is slipping world turns and we get dizzy |minute hands and second sticking... Slipping away |there's something going on she |might be missing |the world turns and we get dizzy |is it spinning for you the way it's |spinning for meshe's living living next week now
You know she's going to pay it back somehow
Lost/changed Lyrics (The future is here at last, The past is too uncomfortable)
she hasnt been to bed in a week
she'll be dead soon and then she'll sleep
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
SHE ALREADY KNOWS IT HURTS
SHE'S LIVING LIKE IT'S THE LAST
NIGHT ON EARTH
LAST NIGHT ON EARTH
LAST NIGHT ON EARTH
- You get to feel so guilty got so
much for so little
Then you find that feeling just won't go away
You're holding on to every little thing so tightly
Till there's nothing left for you anyway
GOODBYE YOU CAN KEEP THIS SUIT OF
LIGHTS
I'LL BE UP WITH THE SUN
AND NOT COMING DOWN... I'M NOT
COMING DOWN
IM NOT COMING DOWN
You wanted to get somewhere so badly
You had to loose yourself along
the way
You change a name but that's okay...
it's necessary
And what you leave behind you don't
miss anyway
GOODBYE YOU CAN KEEP THIS SUIT OF
LIGHTS
I'LL BE UP WITH THE SUN
AND NOT COMING DOWN... I'M NOT
COMING DOWN
I'M NOT COMING DOWN
AND I'M ALREADY GONE
Felt that way all along
Closer to you every day
Didn't want it that much anyway
You're taking steps that make you
feel dizzy
Then you get to like the way it
feels
You hurt yourself you hurt your
lover
Then you discover...
What you thought was freedom is
just greed
Goodbye... no emotional goodnight
I'll be up with the sun
Are you still holding on
I'm not coming down
I'm not coming down
- Weather 'round here choppin' and
changin'
Surgery in the air
Print shirts and southern accents
Cigars and big hair
We got the wheels and petrol is cheap
Only went there for a week
Got the sun got the sand
Got the batteries in the handycam...
Her eyes all swimming pool blue
Dumb bells on a diving board
Baby's always attracted to the
things she's afraid of
Big girl with the sweet tooth
Watches the skinny girl in the
photo shoot
Freshmen squeaky clean
She tastes of chlorine
MIAMI MY MAMMY
Love the movies... love to walk
those movie sets
Get to shoot someone in the foot
Get to smoke some cigarettes
No big deal we know the score
Just back from the video store
Got the car and the car chase
What's he got inside the case
I want a close up of that face
Here comes the car chase
MIAMI MY MAMMY
MIAMI
I bought two new suits... miami
PINK AND BLUE.. MIAMI
I took a picture of you... miami
Getting hot in a photo booth...
miami
I said you looked like a madonna
You said... maybe... said I want
to have your baby... BABY
WE COULD MAKE something beautiful
Something that wouldn't be a problem
At least not in... miami
Some places are like your auntie
But there's no place like
MIAMI MY MAMMY
- If Coke is a mystery, Michael Jackson...History
If beauty is truth, and surgery the fountain of youth
What am I to do?
Have I got the gift to get me through
The gates of that mansion?
If OJ is more than a drink, and
a Big Mac bigger than you think
If perfume is an obsession, then
talk shows confession
What have we got to lose?
I'll never push my way through
The gates of that mansion
I never bought a lotto ticket
I never parked in anyone's space
And the banks feel like cathedrals
because casinos took their place
Luck, come on down
I wake up, she'll come around
Sex is a kind of religion
We're down for playin' hard luck
I never did see that movie, and
I never did read that book
Luck, come on down,
Let my numbers come around
Don't know if I can hold on
Don't know if I'm that strong
Don't know if I can wait that long
'Til the colors come flashing and
the lights go on
Then will there be no time for sorrow?
Then will there be no time for
shame?
And though I can't say why
I know I've got to believe
We'll go diving in their pool
It's who you know that gets you
through
The gates in the Playboy Mansion
The Playboy Mansion
In the Playboy Mansion
Then will there be no time for sorrow?
Then will there be no time for
shame?
Then will there be no time for
sorrow?
Then will there be no time for
shame?
- Tonight the moon is playing tricks
again
Feeling sea sick again
And the whole world could just dissolve... into a glass of water
I've been good 'cause I know you
don't want me to
Do you really want me to be blue
as you
It's her daylight that gets me
through
We've been here before... last time
you scratched at my door
The moon was naked and cold I was
like a two year old
Who just wanted more
If you wear that velvet dress
If you wear that velvet dress
Tonight the moon has drawn its curtains
It's a private show no one else
is going to know
I'm wanting
Sunlight sunlight fills my room
It's sharp and it's clear
But nothing at all like the moon
It's okay the struggle for things
not to say
I never listened to you anyway
And I got my own hands to pray...
But if you wear that velvet dress
But if you wear that velvet dress
Tonight the moon is a mirrorball
Light flickers from across the
hall
Who'll catch the star when it falls
If you wear that velvet dress
- So you never knew love until you
crossed the line of grace
And you never felt wanted till you had someone slap your face
So you never felt alive until you almost wasted away
You had to win
You couldn't just pass
The smartest ass
At the top of the class
Your flying colours
Your family tree
And all your lessons in history
Please... please... please get up
off your knees...
Please... please... leave me out
of this
Please
So you never knew how long you'd
stoop to make that call
And you never knew what was on
the ground till they made you crawl
So you never knew that the heaven
you keep you stole
Your catholic blues
Your convent shoes
Your stick on tattoos
Now they're making the news
Your holy war
Your northern star
Your sermon on the mount
From the boot of your car
Please...please... please get up
off your knees
Please...please... leave me out
of this please
So love is hard and love is tough
But love is not what you're thinking
of
September... streets capsizing...
spilling over down the drain
...shards of glass splinters like
rain but you could only feel your own pain...
october... talking getting nowhere...
November... December... remember...
are we just starting again...?
So love is big bigger than us
But love is not what you're thinking
of
It's what lovers deal it's what
lovers steal
You know i've found it hard to
recieve
Cause you my love I could never
believe
- Jesus, Jesus help me
I'm alone in this world
And a fucked up world it is too
Tell me, tell me the story
The one about eternity
And the way it's all gonna be
WAKE UP WAKE UP DEAD MAN
WAKE UP WAKE UP DEAD MAN
Jesus, I'm waiting here boss
I know you're looking out for us
But maybe your hands aren't free
Your Father, He made the world
in seven
He's in charge of Heaven
Will you put in a word for me
WAKE UP WAKE UP DEAD MAN
WAKE UP WAKE UP DEAD MAN
Listen to your words they'll tell
you what to do
Listen over the rhythm that's confusing
you
Listen to the reed in the saxophone
Listen over the hum in the radio
Listen over sounds of blades in
rotation
Listen through the traffic and
circulation
Listen as hope and peace try to
rhyme
Listen over marching bands playing
out their time
WAKE UP WAKE UP DEAD MAN
WAKE UP WAKE UP DEAD MAN
Jesus, were you just around the
corner?
Did you think to try and warn her?
Or are you working on something
new?
If there's an order in all of this
disorder
Is it like a tape recorder?
Can we rewind it just once more?
WAKE UP WAKE UP DEAD MAN
WAKE UP WAKE UP DEAD MAN
