"'See You Don't Bump His Head'"

"'See You Don't Bump His Head'"


While plucking feathers from a swan song
Spring might gently press its thumbs against your eyes
While plucking feathers from a swan song
A cobweb melts within a womb

While plucking feathers from a swan song
An incontinent is singing Scarpia
While plucking feathers from a swan song

While plucking feathers from a swan song
A mythic instance of erotic impulse
While plucking feathers from a swan song
Is slipping under a surefire sign

While plucking feathers from a swan song
bdelloid rotifers join the chitterling circuit
While plucking feathers from a swan song

While plucking feathers from a swan song
Shit might pretzel Christ's intestines
While plucking feathers from a swan song
Being crushed from the inside out

While plucking feathers from a swan song
On the snow "Rummy" flaunts his unmanly dribble
While plucking feathers from a swan song

While plucking feathers from a swan song
A tiny laugh dirties everything it touches
While plucking feathers from a swan song
Night stops dripping through the stars

While plucking feathers from a swan song
Bast the sheet of jewels horizon to horizon

While plucking feathers from a swan song

"'Til The Band Comes In"

"'Til The Band Comes In"


Here on the outskirts of life
It's a world with the voice of a caretaker's wife
I'm leaving tomorrow don't let it bring you down
Stick around and around and around and around.

'Til the band comes in
And the clouds begin to open
'Til the band comes in
And we hear them all as one
I'll be back again
If you promise that you'll write me
'Til the band comes rollin' in.

Keep your friends
With their windows so high
Keep your city
With children that shine through it's eye
If you need me to move thru'
You know where I'm found
Still alive with my subhuman sound to the ground.

'Til the band comes in
And the clouds begin to open
'Til the band comes in
And we hear them all as one
I'll be back again
If you promise that you'll write me
'Til the band comes rollin' in.

The times we sat and sang of all the hidden things we knew
Did they ever come up true
Can't remember, can't remember
And it's the time to sing a song
Across the emptiness between us
And remember.

"30 Century Man"

"30 Century Man"


See the dwarves and see the giants
Which one would you choose to be?
And if you can't get that together
Here's the answer, here's the key

You can freeze like a 30 Century Man
Like a 30 Century Man
I'll save my bread and take it with me

'Til a hundred years or so
Shame you won't be there to see me
Shakin' hands with Charles De Gaulle

Play it cool and Saranwrap all you can
Be a 30 Century Man

You can freeze like a 30 Century Man
Like a 30 Century Man
Like a 30 Century Man

"A Face In The Crowd"

"A Face In The Crowd"


Tomorrow is a face in the crowd
A leaf in the wind
A bend in the road
We're travelling

Tomorrow is a sky filled with dreams
A gift from the moon
A sea we have yet to sail
But must very soon

Will we be there together?
We should be there together
I've done moving alone
Through the miles of miles of yesterday

We're each of us a face in the crowd
Now you and I can share all there is between 'hello' and
'goodbye'

Together we can try
Together
We can
Try...

"A Lover Loves"

"A Lover Loves"


Corneas misted
Put put put put
Color high
Put put put
Motionless
Put put put put
For seconds at a time
A hand that is cold in another colder
Put put put
And everything
Put put put put
within reach
This is a waltz for a dodo
A samba for Bambi
Gavotte for the Kaiser
Bolero for Beuys
A reel for Red Rosa
A polka for Tintin
Corneas misted
Put put put
Color high
Put put put
Motionless
Put put put put
One hand that is cold in another colder
Put put put
And everything
within reach

"A Woman Left Lonely"

"A Woman Left Lonely"


A woman left lonely will soon grow tired of waiting
And soon she'll do crazy things on lonely occasions
A simple conversation with a new man, now and then
Makes a touchy situation when a good thing comes to an end

And when she gets lonely she's thinking about her man
He's taken her for granted 'cause he just don't understand

And the fevers of the night- they can burn an unloved woman
And like a red hot flame- try to push all love aside...

Oh yes, it does...

A woman left lonely is a victim of a man
When he can't keep up his own way she's gotta do the best she
Can

A woman left lonely...

A woman left lonely...

"Ain't No Sunshine"
(originally by Bill Withers)

"Ain't No Sunshine"
(originally by Bill Withers)



Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long
Anytime she goes away

Wonder this time where she's gone
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away

And I know, I know...

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness everyday
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away

When she's gone
It's not warm when she's away

"All His Children"

"All His Children"


When you're standing alone
With the mountain and the ski
When the arms of the world open wide
Well, the trick is that plain as a falling rain
And you're sure as the time and the tide

You see, we're all His children, His next of kin-
That's the way it began
No matter were you're going, or where you been-
You are the family of Man

When you walk down a road
And the sun is on your side
With the sweet river breathes on your face
When you don't hear a sound, as you look around
Everything are to fall into place

You see, we're all His children, His next of kin-
That's the way it began
No matter where you're going, or where you been-
You're part of the family of Man

You see, we're all His children, His next of kin-
That's the way it began
No matter where you're going, or where you been-
You're part of the family of Man

"All My Love's Laughter"

"All My Love's Laughter"


All my love's laughter
And all my love's faces
She comes in the morning, her cloak in her arm
She's following after
The king of all places
And your tendress warming
Will bruise all her charms
Don't lose your heart too
That beautiful sinner
She wants without shouting
Her life now
She stands in the shade
And the sun is there, in her
But you never know
Till it's night.

All my love's softness
And all my love's graces
She carries on these things
In a tiny white glove
She hides all her lostness
In satins and laces
And everyone says, She's searching for a true love
Don't try to hold on
To say truth proudly

She stands with the flock
All alone on the hill
Her stockings are hung
And her eyes are so shaded
She's winning and you never will
