"Journey From Eden"

"Journey From Eden"


Listen to the blackbird sadly sing
For you, for me
Look at all the pointless suffering
Humanity

I am dreaming of a garden
And I see the midnight flight
Of a blackbird, through my vision
To the light
To the light

She is standing in the doorway
With the love light in her eye
And she beckons me to journey
Through the night
Through the night

Listen to the blackbird sadly sing
For you, for me
Look at all the pointless suffering
Humanity

To the people, who are naked
As they breathe in amber haze
Wandering endlessly narcotic
Through the maze
Through the maze

To the leaders, who are timeless
As they flaunt their warlike ways
Flying endlessly o'er the wasteland
Seeking praise
Seeking praise

Listen to the blackbird sadly sing
For you, for me
Look at all the pointless suffering
Humanity

"Jungle Love"

"Jungle Love"


I met you on somebody's island
You thought you had known me before
I brought you a crate of papaya
They waited all night by your door
You probably wouldn't remember
I probably couldn't forget
Jungle love in the surf in the pouring rain
Everything's better when wet

Jungle love it's drivin' me mad
It's makin' me crazy
Jungle love it's drivin' me mad
It's makin' me crazy

But lately you live in the jungle
I never see you alone
But we need some definite answers
So I thought I would write you a poem
The question to everyone's answer
Is usually asked from within
But the patterns of the rain
And the truth they contain
Have written my life on your skin

Jungle love it's drivin' me mad
It's makin' me crazy
Jungle love it's drivin' me mad
It's makin' me crazy

You treat me like I was your ocean
You swim in my blood when it's warm
My cycles of circular motion
Protect you and keep you from harm
You live in a world of illusion
Where everything's peaches and cream
We all face a scarlet conclusion
But we spend our time in a dream

Jungle love it's drivin' me mad
It's makin' me crazy
Jungle love it's drivin' me mad
It's makin' me crazy

Jungle love it's drivin' me mad
It's makin' me crazy
Jungle love it's drivin' me mad
It's makin' me crazy

"Junior Saw It Happen"

"Junior Saw It Happen"


My sweet child was seen across town
With some stranger man
She had a smile on her face
Looked out of place
Suitcase was in her hand

Junior saw it happen
Why didn't I listen to you, hey
Whoa, ohh
Whoa, {??}
Whoa, ohh
Whoa, now she's down the tracks with him

I remember on the day she left me
That's one thing I'll never forget
In the apartment we owned
All she left was a phone
And a broken down TV set

Junior saw it happen
Why didn't I listen to you, hey
Whoa, ohh
Whoa, {??}
Whoa, na na na na na
Whoa, now she's down the tracks with him

Didn't believe it when I first got word
But boy, I sure do now
I couldn't face it, my mind wouldn't take it
It didn't make sense somehow
Because I thought you was happy
With the way we lived
And the things that we used to do
Whoa, no no no
Whoa, {??}
Whoa, no no no no
Whoa, now she's down the tracks with him

"Just A Passin' Fancy In A Midnite Dream"

"Just A Passin' Fancy In A Midnite Dream"


If you need me on a Monday and it's rainin'
You go down 'bout Tuesday afternoon
You'll be powerless and squirming by Wednesday
You know you can't get enough too soon

You won't know what kind of change I may play
You won't know, you won't know, you won't know
You won't care what your friends may say
Cause you're just a passin' fancy in a midnite dream

You begin to worry on a Wednesday
When you're temperature's goin' down slow
You call the doctor on Friday
But he says they don't even wanna know

Black magic's got a spell on you
Black magic's gonna do you in
Black magic got a spell on you
With black magic, you know you just can't win

When you feel my grip gettin' stronger
And there ain't a thing you can do
And you can't hold out much longer
I'll have your soul before I'm through

You won't know what kind of change I may throw
You won't care, you won't care, you won't care
You won't care what your friends, they may say
Cause you're just a passin' fancy in my midnite dream

When you feel my grip gettin' stronger
And there ain't a thing you can do
And you can't hold out much longer
You know your rectifying time is due
If you feel your liver shiver
And you know that I'm gonna mess with you
And your soul begins to quiver
There won't be any mercy for you when I'm through, baby

"Keeps Me Wondering Why"

"Keeps Me Wondering Why"


Sensations drift away
When I'm all alone
How can you take away my feelings
Bet our love until you lose
Then give back what you've been stealing
All these changes I go through

Keeps me wondering why
I'm still loving you
Keeps me wondering why
All these things that you do
Keeps me wondering why

Temptation rips away
Can this girl stay true
I just keep hanging on
Cause I know it's hard to find the magic
That's in every part of you
All the boys, they got to have it
All these changes I go through

Keeps me wondering why
I'm still loving you
Keeps me wondering why
All these things that you do
Keeps me wondering why
I'm still loving you

Keeps me wondering
Keeps me wondering
Keeps me wondering...

Keeps me wondering why
I'm still loving you
Keeps me wondering why
All these things that you do
Keeps me wondering why
I'm still in love with you
Keeps me wondering why
All these things that you do
Keeps me wondering why
You know, I'm still in love with you
Keeps me wondering why
All these things that you do
Keeps me wondering why
I'm still in love with you

"Key To The Highway"

"Key To The Highway"


I've got the key to the highway
I am bound to go
I'm gonna roam this highway
Till my dying day

When the moon peeks over the mountain
Honey, I'll be on my way
I'm gonna roam this highway
Till my dying day

Give me one more, one more kiss mama
Just before I go
Cause when I leave here, baby
I won't be back, no I won't be back anymore

Mmmm, to the highway
Oh, Lord, I'm out and bound to go
I'm gonna leave here running
Cause walking's much too slow

"Kow Kow (Calqulator)"

"Kow Kow (Calqulator)"


Kow Kow Calqulator
Was a very smooth operator
Had himself a pet alligator
Kept it in a chrome elevator, yeah

When the sun began to shine
The alligator come outside
Kow Kow played the chimes
Together they would go for a ride

As they travelled with a heavy load
They came across a dead horse at the side of the road
With two generals standing at each end
Fighting over whose fault it had been

And all that's left was this war
And they couldn't get things back together like they were before

Well, listen
Turn on your love light
Turn it on, let it shine
Inside your heart
Let it shine, turn it on
Your love light
Turn it on
Turn it on
Let it shine
Inside your mind

So many times Kow Kow had heard it said before
Oh, don't, Lord, don't go near that door
The cause of our evil you'll uncover
Because of our misery you discover
Well, misery seeks its own company
Kow Kow had heard it said

Now he sits there crying
Oh, with his hands across his head
Kow Kow Calqulator
Oh, a very smooth operator

Get back in your elevator
Kow Kow Calqulator
Turn on your love light
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Let it shine

"Let Me Serve You"

"Let Me Serve You"


Oh baby, don't you want a man like me
Oh baby, don't you want a man like me
Think about your future
Forget about your used to be

Just a little bit of rock
Just a taste or two of roll
I'll give you sweet inspiration
Till it satisfies your soul

Oh baby, don't you want a man like me
Let me serve you pretty baby
Serve you until you're free

Let me serve you in the morning
Let me serve you in the afternoon
I want to love you pretty mama
Underneath the silvery moon

Oh baby, don't you want a man like me
Let me serve you pretty baby
Think about what could be
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.....
