"This Love"

"This Love"


This love’s a killer, it’s gonna kill us both
Funny how we cling to the other doors
You close your eyes and say it’s me
The one you want to believe

This love’s a killer, it’s gonna kill us both
Like lightning strikes unexposed
Pure as electricity
It makes me feel like
It makes me feel like

We’re like thieves in all the doors
From the stars of Sunday moon and all the world
We’re like thieves stealin’ from the poor
I spotted you in the crowd
That kind of love is not allowed

All there before us
All there before us
Keep on forgettin’ but we remember

[Chorus]

All there before us
All there before us
Keep on forgettin’ but we remember

This love’s a killer, it’s gonna kill us both
So help us God and Holy Ghost
From a dream of maybe make believe
Can’t help feel like
It makes me feel like

A thief, stealin’ all the doors
From the stars of Sunday moon and all the world
We’re like thieves stealin’ from the poor
I spotted you in the crowd
That kind of love is not allowed

All there before us
All there before us
Keep on forgettin’ but we remember

This love’s a killer

"This Wheel's On Fire"

"This Wheel's On Fire"



If your memory serves you well
We were gonna meet again and wait
So I'm goin' to unpack all my things
And sit before it gets too late
No man alive will come to you
With another tale to tell
But you know that we shall meet again
If your memory serves you well

This wheel's on fire, rolling down the road
Best notify my next of kin, this wheel shall explode

If your memory serves you well
I was goin' to confiscate your lace
And wrap it up in a sailor's knot
And hide it in your case
If I knew for sure that it was yours
But it was oh so hard to tell
And you knew that we would meet again
If your memory serves you well

Wheel's on fire, rolling down the road
Best notify my next of kin, this wheel shall explode

If your memory serves you well
You'll remember you're the one
That called on me to call on them
To get you your favors done
And after every plan had failed
And there was nothing more to tell
You knew that we would meet again
If your memory serves you well

This wheel's on fire, rolling down the road
Best notify my next of kin, this wheel shall explode

"Thousand Feet Below You"

"Thousand Feet Below You"



I can't get through to you
Even when I do
You slip away like sand
Through the fingers of my hand

You've got that certain look on your face
You smile away the hope I embrace

Imagine you and me
Planted like two seeds
You will grow in sand
I'll eat from your hand

Satisfaction is just another word for pain
Living without, it's gonna drive you insane
I kneel my love, a thousand feet below you
Perform the things you want me too

I can't get through to you
Even when I do
You slip away like sand
Through the fingers of my hand

Satisfaction is just another word for pain
Living without, it's gonna drive you insane
I kneel my love, a thousand feet below you
Perform the things you want me too

Imagine you and me
Planted like two seeds
You will grow in sand
I'll eat from your hand

Satisfaction is just another word for pain
Living without, it's gonna drive you insane

I kneel my love, a thousand feet below you
Perform the things you want me too

"Tiger Bay"

"Tiger Bay"



Tiger tiger bay, watch the shadow play
Tiger tiger bay, what's on the menu today
You got hungry again
You gotta make some plans,
Every tiger needs a naked prey

Antelope on the run
Tiger got a piece of an x-ray gun
Antelope on the run
I want it, I want it

Freeze baby freeze
Danger on the breeze
Squeeze my knee
Hard as you can
Freeze baby freeze
Danger on the breeze
This is your man on the spot
Taking off......alright

Tiger tiger bay, catch the shadow play
Tiger tiger bay, scratch bite and slay
So hungry
Never can tell when every tiger needs a naked prey

"Time Is A Book"

"Time Is A Book"



If I could go back a hundred years or more
Back to the ages I adore
I put myself on a sailing boat
Sailing the seas, carrying my load
Put into ports of every new found land
The crew drops the anchor on my command
Down the boats, and we go ashore
But too bad, I know this can't happen anymore

Time is a book, a book of glory
And in a book of stories
You can't turn the page back anymore

If I could go back a hundred years or more
Back to the ages I adore
I'd become an inventor to discover new things
I'd find out flying with my own wings
I'd find out light and the electric train
And I'd find out how to make it rain
Yes, I should find out all those things
Although sometimes I was wrong
But I'd never find out a gun or a bomb

"Time's Up"

"Time's Up"



We've been friends for a long term run
Shared the goods and we shared the fun
But it's true that nobody knows and no one can tell
Why in heaven do these moments come
Yeah, who in heaven lets these moments come
When the truth gets twisted and somebody's ringin' hell's bell
Yeah we've seen some high times
And it's too bad, one's always sad
You got 10 seconds baby and then I'm gone, gone
Gimme one reason for stayin' home

Time's up, I hope you make a million
And have a lot of pretty children
But this is my song, gotta say "so long"

I'm always hopin' for the best in life
I try to put it right between my lines
But somehow you been missin' the clues
And you got me feelin' used
Yeah, we've seen some high times
There's more to come, where they come from
You got 10 seconds baby and then I'm gone
Gimme one reason for hangin' on

Time's up, I hope you make a million
And have a lot of pretty children
And this is my song, tonight I gotta say "so long"
Time's up, I hope you get the picture
For your case there ain't no cure
I'll be free and you'll be fine
Time's up, I hope you make a million
And have a lot of pretty children
But this is my song,

"To The Hilt"

"To The Hilt"



Wanna try, wanna fly
Right through the needles eye
Wanna be chilled, wanna be thrilled
Press your luck right to the hilt

Hey boy, quit that stare
Get out of grandpa's rockin' chair
How about raisin' hell,
Let's see if we outdo ourselves

One day you'll be tied and gagged
Your head upon the railroad track
The rail's hummin', there's a train a comin'
I'm sure your last thought's full of regret
Before the wheels roll across your neck

Why didn't I do this
How come I didn't do that
I could be out there, paintin' towns red
Sweat, maybe I'll wake up in bed
No boy, this is it
You should've used a bit more wit
Get out there and dig in deep
Stay wide awake when you're asleep
Who wants to compromise
When every second hour flies
Set the time on half past tilt
For making love right to the hilt

One day you'll be buried
Up to your elbows in the sand
And there's honey glowin'
Down your cheeks it's flowing
You'll find some time to reflect
Before the ants are crawling over your head

Why didn't I do this
How come I didn't do that
Is this a dream that's gone bad
Maybe I'll just wake up, wake up in bed
To the hilt, is that what you said

"Together We Live, Together We Love"

"Together We Live, Together We Love"



I send my bird to a golden cage
Where it can sing it's song of love, love
It takes along the golden key
Then you unlock the door of love
Then think of me, oh then think of me
Cause I send you this golden key
When you accept this little gift
Remember please the song of love, love
And when you're ready, then show it now
Then show it now, that you're in love, love
Then think of me, oh then think of me
Cause I send you this golden key

Together we live together we live
Together we live together we love

"Tons Of Time"

"Tons Of Time"



There's no lock on my door
Don't know what bolts are for
I never pay no rent
All I got was heaven sent

Don't need no clocks (tick tock)
To get off my rocks
O, I've got tons of time
Living on coca and lime

You want me to be like you
The truth is, you have no clue
That this life's master plan
Should be enjoyed by man

When I'm on T.V.
You all think I'm a bit funny
Basical and out of time
But it's luxury
Protected from humanity
Don't cost a dime, precious time
There's no jungle blues
Once you kick off them tennis-shoes
Making up your mind in time

One day I will revive
So we can all survive
It's just a matter of time
Oh it's luxury
Protected from humanity
Don't cost a dime, precious time
There's no jungle blues
Once you kick off them tennis-shoes
Making up your mind in time

The priest says I'm out of line
I'm wasting my tons of time
He say I should pray some more
But I don't know what the hell for

"Too Much Woman (Not Enough Girl)"

"Too Much Woman (Not Enough Girl)"



All your lip gloss and eye shadow
So seductive, so mature
Oh, you're such a femme fatale
Only one look
You can't touch the merchandise
Keep dreamin' of you
Thinkin' of you
Walkin' with you
Runnin' away from you
I love the way you lie to me
My sexual fantasy
My Queen, believe me
I'll always be waitin' for an opportunity
But you're too much woman, not enough girl
You'd sell your soul for a diamond and a pearl
Too much woman, not enough girl
Rather be livin' in a grown up world
Too much woman, can't you see
You're too much woman, but not enough girl for me
Sittin' in your ivory tower
Waitin' for the man
Waitin' for the power
Lookin' at the sand in the hourglass
Listenin' to the sound of the cars go pass your window
Baby, baby
I'll keep dreamin' of you
Thinkin' of you
Walkin' with you
Runnin' away from you
You're too much woman, not enough girl
You'd sell your soul for a diamond and a pearl
Too much woman, not enough girl
Rather be livin' in a grown up world
Too much woman, can't you see
You're too much woman, but not enough girl for me
