Tragic tenor sing to me
Of lust and deep depravity hello? Hello?
Lock me up this time for good
Before i might be understood hello? How low...
So all of the worlds
Little boys&Little girls
Can sleep peacefully
In their tiny beds
Tragic tenor kiss my ass
And give my filthy mouth a bath hello? Hello?
Lock me up this time for sure
Before somebody finds a cure hello? Hello?
So all of the worlds
Little boys & Little girls
Can sleep peacefully
In their tiny beds
The hunchback of San Francisco
Morning has broken the silence of night
Now you'll have to use kindness to fight
It's just like asbestos, it sticks to your skin
It burns within
Luck is a hunchback, travelling light
With rags and transistors to hold up the sky
Drink to the hearts that San Francisco stole
But drink slow
'Cause I'm a lonely Man
And you're a lonely Girl
And it's a lonely world
If you make Vegas, leave on the lights
I want to see your expression change
Hatred will take you to unknown heights
Drink slow
'Cause I'm a lonely Man
And you're a lonely Girl
And it's a lonely world
Throw away your suitcase
Come back to bed
There is nothing I wouldn't do
For a girl in distress
I've loaded my weapon
I'm wearing my best
There is nothing I couldn't stoop to
For a Girl in distress
Nothing I wouldn't stoop to
We are out in the hills now
Looking over the sea
There is nothing she wouldn't do
To a man on his knees
Anouska ( I want to come home )
Moments come, moments go
There is nothing else
I will hide in this lifetime of ignorance
Nouska-Anouska I want to come home
Nouska-Anouska I feel so alone
Voice of God comforts some
When a love dissolves
Voice of God comforts none
When a child's stillborn
Nouska-Anouska I want to come home
Nouska-Anouska I feel so alone
I recall a thousand English hands
They were praying for an avalanche
Nouska-Anouska I've been so alone
Nouska-Anouska I want to come home
I belong to where the angels die
Long before they even learn to fly
I recall a hundred summer days
Summer Girls I knew would never stay
I belong to where the angels die
Long before they even learn to fly
Nouska-Anouska I want to come home
Nouska-Anouska I feel so alone
She is wearing a complexion
Like the inside of a church
That has never seen two lovers
Just before they lose their thirst
She likes nature in spite of
What nature did to her
And she loves enough to jaywalk
Enough to get hurt
And if she falls in the path of
The midday traffic
I will sleep by the bed of a broken statue
Radio for help now
She's gone missing again
Without a raincoat or a hairbrush
Without a witness or a trail
We like Nature in spite of
What Nature does to us
And we love to jaywalk
But not enough to get hurt
And if she walks in the path
Of the midday traffic
I will keep by the grave of a broken statue
If she walks in the path
Of the midday traffic
I will walk in the path
Of the midday traffic
And she falls in the path
Of the midday traffic
I will keep by the grave of a broken statue
Genevieve ( The pilot of your thights )
Genevieve, Genevieve
Dreaming of those castles in the sky
Genevieve, Genevieve
And clocks that couldn't wait to tell the time
That's why I'm the pilot of your thighs
The one who holds your hand
When you stare in those canals
The pilot of your thighs
Genevieve, Genevieve
Horoscopes were written in the snow
Genevieve, Genevieve
Sometimes the sun just gets too close
That's why I'm the pilot of your thighs
The one who holds your hand
When you stare in those canals
The pilot of your thighs
Every night and every day
Comes a newly hatched decay
Nothing ever satisfies
Until you lose your appetite
So long, so long baby baby
So long, so long
A feeling that will never die
Kept a vigil by your side
Helpless as the melting snow
There are things that we will never know
So long, so long baby baby
So long, so long
Naked Man dreaming of a Naked God
Naked God dreaming of a clothed world
Hopeless dawn offers up it's tragedy
Fading sun washes out to Sea
And you know that's how it goes
When people steep themselves in Faith
You know that's how it goes
That's how it goes
Child of Prague, lying through it's broken teeth
Get a dog, at least they don't forget
And we know that's how it goes
When people steep themselves in Love
We know that's how it goes
That's how it goes
Valentine, Why should I remember you?
Valentine, Please let me forget.
Valentine, Why should I remember you?
Valentine, Please let me forget
Let me go.
Drink to our demolished home
Wher loss resides alone
Like a widow by the radio
Child, childhood is a place
Where sorrow comes of age
A widow by the radio
Try to understand
I couldn't hold your hand
I couldn't even hold a gun
Surely we could find
A reason or a sign
That everything's not gone for good
Autumn whispers through the trees
Cheap things to her and me
But patience wears a uniform
Nature take care of your sons
I think they have become
The Darlings of the universe
Try to understand
I couldn't hold your hand
I couldn't even hold a gun
Surely we could hide
A reason or a sigh
That everything is gone for good.
Weeping tree, shoulders to the sky
Never understood why
Weeping tree, should've let you go
How was I to know?
And if you find a clue
I hope you find it soon
Some people hold their breath forever
And if you find a house
Where you can live without the one you love
Weeping tree, fruitless, stands alone
Where lovers long dead used to go
Weeping tree, should've let you go
But how was I to know?
And if you find a clue
I hope you find it soon
Some people hold their breath forever
And if you find a house
Where you can live without the one you love
I left my house in the clouds
I walked into someone's afterlife
She kept a pill in her hand
To take when we were about to land
Did you try
To let it go on by?
Did you try?
The Needles and the Uniforms
A schoolgirl and a unicorn
Eclipse a love with a loss
I sought comfort in her underwear
I shaved my face twice a day
Those crazy lambs
They will suffocate
Did you cry
Or let it go on by?
Did you cry?
The aftertaste of something warmer
Of schoolgirls and of unicorns.
Did you try to let it go on by?
Did you try?
The schoolgirl and the unicorn
The Needles and the Uniforms;
I washed her face in the rain
I will return to that place again
Back to my house in the clouds
Back to my house in the clouds
