I've been looking so long for you now you won't get away from my grasp.

You've been living so long in hiding in hiding behind that false mask.

And you know and I know that you ain't got long now to last.

Your looks and your feelings are just the remains of your past.

You're standing in the wings, there you wait for the curtain to fall.

Knowing the terror and holding you have on us all.

Yeah, I know that you're gonna scratch me, maim me and maul.

You know I'm helpless from your mesmerising cat call.

Keep your distance, walk away, don't take his bait.

Don't you stray, don't fade away.

Watch your step, he's out to get you, come what may.

Don't you stray, from the narrow way.

I'm running and hiding in my dreams you're always there.

You're the Phantom of the Opera, you're the devil, you're just out to scare.

You damaged my mind and my soul it just floats through the air.

Haunt me, you taunt me, you torture me back at your lair.

You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need. You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street, You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed. And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight, You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking.

And after a while, you can work on points for style. Like the club tie, and the firm handshake, A certain look in the eye and an easy smile. You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to, So that when they turn their backs on you, You'll get the chance to put the knife in.

You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder. You know it's going to get harder, and harder, and harder as you get older. And in the end you'll pack up and fly down south, Hide your head in the sand, Just another sad old man, All alone and dying of cancer.

And when you loose control, you'll reap the harvest you have sown. And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone. And it's too late to lose the weight you used to need to throw around. So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone, Dragged down by the stone.

I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused. Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used. Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise. If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this maze?

Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending That everyone's expendable and no-one has a real friend. And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner And everything's done under the sun, And you believe at heart, everyone's a killer.

Who was born in a house full of pain. Who was trained not to spit in the fan. Who was told what to do by the man. Who was broken by trained personnel. Who was fitted with collar and chain. Who was given a pat on the back. Who was breaking away from the pack. Who was only a stranger at home. Who was ground down in the end. Who was found dead on the phone. Who was dragged down by the stone.

Faster moment spent spread tales of change within the sound

Counting form through rhythm electric freedom

Moves to counter-balance stars expound our conscience

All to know and see ...........The look in your eyes

Passing time will reach as nature relays to set the scene

New encounters spark a true fruition

Guiding lines we touch them

Our bodies balance out the waves

As we accelerate our days ......To the look in your eyes

From the moment I reached out to hold I felt a sound

And what touches our soul slowly moves as touch rebounds

And to know that tempo will continue lost in trance of dances

As rhythm takes another turn .....As is my want I only reach ...To look in your eyes

Cha -Cha -Cha Cha -Cha Cha -Cha -Cha Cha -Cha Cha -Cha -Cha Cha -Cha

Rocket engines burning fuel so fast

Up into the night sky they blast

Through the universe the engines whine

Could it be the end of man and time?

Back on earth the flame of life burns low

Everywhere is misery and woe

Pollution kills the air, the land and sea

Man prepares to meet his destiny

Rocket engines burning fuel so fast

Up into the night sky so vast

Burning metal through the atmosphere

Earth remains in worry, hate and fear

With the hateful battles raging on

Rockets flying to the glowing sun

Through the empires of eternal void

Freedom from the final suicide

Freedom fighters sent out to the sun

Escape from brainwashed minds and pollution

Leave the earth to all it's sin and hate

Find another world where freedom waits

Past the stars in fields of ancient void

Through the shields of darkness where they find

Love upon a land a world unknown

Where the sons of freedom make their home

Leave the earth to Satan and his slaves

Leave them to their future in the grave

Make a home where love is there to stay

Peace and happiness in every day.

Though we might have precious little

It's still precious

I like that song about this wonderful world

It's got a sunny point of view

And sometimes I feel it's true

At least for a few of us

I like that world, it makes a wonderful song

But there's a darker point of view

But sadly just as true

For so many among us

Though we might have precious little

It's still precious

In the sweetest child there's a vicious streak

In the strongest man there's a child so weak

In the whole wide world there's no magic place

So you might as well rise put on your bravest face

I like that show where they solve all the murders

An heroic point of view

It's got justice and vengeance too

At least so the story goes

I like that story, makes a satisfying case

But there's a messy point of view

That's sadly just as true

For so many among us

In softest voice there's an acid tongue

In the oldest eyes there's a soul so young

In the shakiest will there's a core of steel

On the smoothest ride there's a squeaky wheel

Though we might have precious little

It's still precious

[Prologue:]

In the constellation of Cygnus, there lurks a mysterious, invisible force: the black hole of Cygnus X-1...

Six Stars of the Northern Cross In mourning for their sister's loss In a final flash of glory Nevermore to grace the night...

[1] Invisible to telescopic eye Infinity, the star that would not die

All who dare to cross her course Are swallowed by her fearsome force

Through the void To be destroyed Or is there something more? Atomized...at the core? Or through the Astral Door? To soar...

[2] I set a course just east of Lyra And northwest of Pegasus Flew into the light of Deneb Sailed across the Milky Way On my ship, the 'Rocinante' Wheeling through the galaxies Headed for the heart of Cygnus Headlong into mystery

The x-ray is her siren song My ship cannot resist her long Nearer to my deadly goal Until the black hole Gains control...

[3] Spinning, whirling Still descending Like a spiral sea Unending...

Sound and fury Drown my heart Every nerve Is torn apart...

To be continued...

If I could wave my magic wand...

I am made from the dust of the stars

And the oceans flow in my veins

Here I hide in the heart of the city

Like a stranger coming out of the rain

The evening plane rises up from the runway

Over constellations of light

I look down into a million houses

And wonder what you're doing tonight

If I could wave my magic wand

I'd make everything all right

I'm not one to believe in magic

But I sometimes have a second sight

I'm not one with a sense of proportion

When my heart still changes overnight

I had a dream of a winter garden

A midnight rendezvous

Silver, blue and frozen silence

What a fool I was for you

I had a dream of the open water

I was swimming away out to sea

So deep I could never touch bottom

What a fool I used to be

If I could wave my magic wand

I'd set everybody free

I'm not one to believe in magic

Though my memory has a second sight

I'm not one to go pointing my finger

When I radiate more heat than light

Don't ask me

I'm just improvising

My illusion of careless flight

Can't you see

My temperature's rising

I radiate more heat than light

Don't ask me

I'm just sympathizing

My illusions a harmless flight

Can't you see

My temperature's rising

I radiate more heat than light

The clouds prepare for battle

In the dark and brooding silence

Bruised and sullen storm clouds

Have the light of day obscured

Looming low and ominous

In twilight premature

Thunder heads are rumbling

In a distant overture...

All at once, the clouds are parted

Light streams down in bright unbroken beams...

Follow men's eyes as they look to the skies

The shifting shafts of shining weave the fabric of their dreams...

Can you feel like a child?

Can you see what I want?

I wanna run through your wicked garden

Heard that's the place to find ya

But I'm alive

So alive now

I know the darkness blinds you

Can you see without eyes?

Can you speak without lies?

I wanna drink from you naked fountain

I can drown your sorrows

I'm gonna burn, burn you to life now

Out of the chains that bind you

Can you see just like a child?

Can you see just what I want?

Can I bring you back to life?

Are you scared of life?

Burn, burn, burn

Burn your wicked garden down

Burn, burn, burn

Burn your wicked garden to the ground

Can you feel pain inside?

Can you love?

Can you cry?

I wanna run through your wicked garden

Heard that's the place to find you

'Cause I'm alive

So alive now

Out of the dark that blinds you

Can you see just like a child?

Can you see just what I want?

Can I bring you back to life?

Are you scared of life?

Burn, burn, burn

Burn your wicked garden down

Burn, burn, burn

Burn your wicked garden to the ground

Fell into A sea of grass And disappeared among The shady blades... The children all Ran over me Screaming tag! You are the one!

He trips her as Her sandals fail She says stop! I'm a girl... Whose fingernails are made Of a mother's pearl... Yellow buttercup Helicopters Orange buttercat Chasing after The crazy bee Mad about somebody Oh no...

Me and my girlfriend Don't wear no shoes Her nose is painted pepper Sunlight... She loves me I mean it's serious As serious can be...

Well, she sings a song and I listen to what it says: If you want a friend Feed any animal... There was so much space I cut me a piece With some fine wine It brought peace to my mind In the summertime... And it rolled Summer.... ohhhh... Oh, oh, oh... the summertime rolls Summer.... ohhhh... Oh, oh, oh... the summertime rolls Oh Summer.... Yeah, yeah yeah... Oh, oh, oh... summertime rolls Summer.... Yeah, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah... Oh, oh, oh... summertime rolls

Me and my girlfriend Don't wear no clothes ya know, Her nose is a pepper sunlight... I love her And me, it so so serious As serious can be...

floating down through the clouds

memories come rushing up to meet me now

in the space between the heavens

and in the corner of some foreign field

i had a dream

i had a dream

goodbye max

goodbye ma

after the service when you're walking slowly to the car

and the silver in her hair shines in the cold november air

you hear the tolling bell

and touch the silk in your lapel

and as the tear drops rise to meet the comfort of the band

you take her frail hand

and hold on to the dream

a place to stay

enough to eat

somewhere old heroes shuffle safely down the street

where you can speak out loud

about your doubts and fears

and what's more no-one ever disappears

you never hear their standard issue kicking in your door

you can relax on both sides of the tracks

and maniacs don't blow holes in bandsmen by remote control

and everyone has recourse to the law

and no-one kills the children anymore

and no-one kills the children anymore

night after night

going round and round my brain

his dream is driving me insane

in the corner of some foreign field

the gunner sleeps tonight

what's done is done

we cannot just write off his final scene

take heed of the dream

take heed

The following is a true story

Only the names have been changed

To protect the guilty

Well I left my job in my home town

And I headed for the smoke

Got a rock 'n' roll band and a fast right hand

Gonna get to the top

Nothing's gonna stop us, no nothing

So if you've got the money, we've got the sound

You put it up and we'll put it down

If you've got the dollar, we've got the song

Just wanna boogie woogie all night long

Yeah boogie

I got holes in my shoes

I got holes in my teeth

I got holes in my socks

I can't get no sleep

I'm trying to make a million

And I got patches on the patches

On my old blue jeans

Well they used to be blue

When they used to be new

When they used to be clean

But I've got a Mumma who's a hummer

Just keeping me alive

While I'm in the band doing drinking with the boys

She's working 9 to 5

She knows her place that woman

Just you wait

One of these days see me driving round town

In my Rock 'n' Rolls Royce with the sun roof down

My bottle of booze, no summer time blues

Shouting out, "Look at me"

In my rock 'n' roll voice

No it ain't no fun, yeah

Waiting round to be a millionaire

No it ain't no fun

Waiting round to be a millionaire

Do you believe me

It ain't no fun, no

Waiting round to be a millionaire

It ain't no fun, I don't care what they say

Waiting round to be a millionaire

Drive a Rolls Royce car

No it ain't no fun, and you know it

Waiting round to be a millionaire

No, no, no, no , no, no, no

No, ain't no fun

Waiting round to be a millionaire

Got a million dollar scream

But it ain't no fun, (ain't no fun), oh no

No it ain't no fun, (ain't no fun), that's what I said

But it ain't no fun, (ain't no fun), and I wanna be rich

No it ain't no fun, (ain't no fun), ain't no fun digging this bitch

Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire, you better believe me

Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire

Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire

No it ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire

No it ain't no fun (ain't no fun)

No it ain't no fun (ain't no fun)

I ain't having no fun (ain't no fun)

No it ain't no fun (ain't no fun)

Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire, no no

Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire

Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire

No it ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire

"Hey Hello Howard, how ya doin'?

"Next door neighbour?"

"Oh yeah... Get your fuckin' jumbo jet off my airport"

(Ain't no fun, ain't no fun)

No it ain't no fun, (ain't no fun)

Hey it ain't no fun, (ain't no fun)

No it ain't no fun, (ain't no fun)

Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire

Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire

No it ain't no fun, no it ain't no fun, ain't no fun

(Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire)

(Ain't no fun...)

Do you think that I'm crazy, out of my mind.

Do you think that I creep in the night and sleep in a phone booth?

Let me take a minute to tell you my friend, let me take a minute to tell who I am

Case you didn't know, if it didn't show

I'm another person

Do you think that my pants are too tight

Do you think that I'm creepy?

Better look around before you say you don't care

Shut your fucking mouth about the lenghth of my hair

?????? ???????? Shitty little person

Do you think that I love you, stupid and blind

Do you think that I dream through the night of holding you near me.

.........That's all that I can remember, I haven't heard it for a while..........

[warning - mature lyrics with negative connotations]

[detachable [explitive deleted] - king missile]

I woke up this morning

with a bad hangover

and my [explitive deleted] was missing again.

This happens all the time:

it's detachable.

This comes in handy a lot of the time:

I can leave it home

when I think it's going to get me in trouble,

or I can rent it out

when I don't need it.

But now and then I go to a party,

get drunk,

and the next morning I can't for the life of me

remember what I did with it.

First I looked around my apartment

and I couldn't find it

so I called up the place where the party was.

They hadn't seen it either.

I asked them to check the medicine cabinet

(because for some reason I leave it there sometimes)

but not this time.

So I told them if it pops up to let me know.

I called afew people who were at the party

but they were no help either.

I was starting to get desperate.

I really don't like being without my [explitive deleted] for too long.

It makes me feel like less of a man,

and I really hate having to sit down every time I take a leak.

After a few hours of searching the house

and calling everyone I could think of,

I was starting to get very depressed.

So I went to the Kiev and ate breakfast.

Then as I walked down Second Avenue

towards St. Mark's place where all those

people sell used books and other junk on the street,

I saw my [explitive deleted] lying on a blanket

next to a broken toaster oven.

Some guy was selling it.

I had to buy it off him,

He wanted 22 bucks,

but I talked him down to 17.

I took it home, washed it off, and put it back on.

I was happy again.

Complete.

People sometimes tell me I should get it permanently attached, but,

I don't know. Even though it's sometimes a pain in the ass,

I like having a detachable [explitive deleted].

I've chosen this site as this is a random lyric. Can anybody help me please? Many years ago (1973) I met a girl from Surrey, anyway she kept playing this one song, all I can remember was it had the lines

Theres a hole in Daddys arm where all the money goes

and Jesus Christ died for nothing I suppose

I don't have a clue how to look for it, all help welcomed.... Thanks

Nothing can survive in a vacuum

No one can exists all alone

We pretend things only happen to strangers

We've all got problems of our own

It's enough to learn to share our pleasures

We can't soothe pain with sympathy

All that we can do is be reminded

We shake our heads at the tragedy

Every day we're standing in a time capsule

Racing down a river from the past

Every day we're standing in a wind tunnel

Facing down the future coming fast

Looking at the long range forecast

Catching all the names in the news

Checking out the state of the nation

Learning the environmental blues

Truth is after all a moving target

Hairs to split, and pieces that don't fit

How can anybody be enlightened?

Truth is after all so poorly lit

It's just the age

It's just a stage

We disengage

We turn the page

Every day we're standing in a time capsule

(It's just a stage)

We disengage, we turn the page

Racing down the river running fast

Every day we're standing in a wind tunnel

(It's just a stage)

We disengage, we turn the page

Facing down the future coming fast

People are people

So why should it be

You and I should get along so awfully

So we're different colours

And we're different creeds

And different people have different needs

It's obvious you hate me

Though I've done nothing wrong

I've never even met you so what could I have done

I can't understand

What makes a man

Hate another man

Help me understand

Help me understand

Now you're punching

And you're kicking

And you're shouting at me

I'm relying on your common decency

So far it hasn't surfaced

But I'm sure it exists

It just takes a while to travel

From your head to your fists

Dark star crashes pouring its light into ashes

Reason tatters the forces tear loose from the axis

Searchlight casting for faults in the clouds of delusion

shall we go, you and I While we can? Through the transitive nightfall of diamonds

Mirror shatters in formless reflections of matter

Glass hand dissolving to ice petal flowers revolving

Lady in velvet recedes in the nights of goodbye

Shall we go, you and I While we can? Through the transitive nightfall of diamonds
