"On My Way To The Big Light"

"On My Way To The Big Light"



I fired an arrow made out of will
And watched as it flew beyond a green hill
I followed its trail with a song in my head
The stars for my cieling, the earth for my bed.

On my way to the big light
On my way to the big light
On my way to the big light
On my way to the big light.

My thoughts exploded like flowers in May
With the eye of my mind I saw a great day
I climbed a dark tower, took it by stealth
With every idea I invented myself

On my way to the big light
On my way to the big light
On my way to the big light
On my way to the big light.

In a hungry hour in an unlit land
Heard by no ear I made my demands
The tables were cleared and the ashes were swept
Rome was rebuilt in a day as I slept.

On my way to the big light
On my way to the big light
On my way to the big light
On my way to the big light.

I can still see the bones of the ships of the sun
In the slow ebbing tide when the battle was won
Afraid of nothing, scared of no man
I did not die and I know who I am.

On my way to the big light
On my way to the big light
On my way to the big light
On my way to the big light.

And no son of Adam, no daughter of Eve
Will be able to stop me when I'm ready to leave.

All love to the love
All flame to the fire
All wings to the wind
All that lives higher.

All love to the love
All flame to the fire
All wings to the wind
All that lives higher.

All love to the love
All flame to the fire
All wings to the wind
All that lives higher.

"Out Of Control"

"Out Of Control"



I was on Grand Street when I heard a woman cry
Turned to see a young boy with his head held high
He was screaming abuse at everything and nothing
Wasn't more than seventeen years old
Waving a pistol, blew himself to heaven
I guess he just exploded out of control

Minding my own business
Playing social snakes and ladders
There's a knock on my door
The military mad-hatter
He says someone pressed a button
Only got about 8 minutes
To get myself and my family into some underground hole
Where we can sit and play twenty questions
Whilst our leaders invent answers
It seems the whole world just exploded out of control!

You sit on your side
And I'll sit on mine
Used to have such grand plans
Now we can't afford the time
It may seem pretty arrogant
But words may be heart fire

Deep inside I'm freezing cold
Sorry that I beat you
Sorry that I screamed
For a moment there I really lost control

"Peace Of Iona"

"Peace Of Iona"


Peace of the glancing dancing waves
Peace of the white sands
Peace of Iona

Peace of the singing winds
Peace of the stones
Peace of Iona

Iiiiii oooooo nnnnnaaaaaa

Peace of the crying gulls
Peace of the humming bees
Peace of the noon-time stillness

Peace of the dreaming hills
Peace of the breath of angels
Peace of Iona

Iiiiii oooooo nnnnnaaaaaa
Iiiiii oooooo nnnnnaaaaaa

Peace of the saints and seekers
Peace of the monks and Druids
Peace of the resting place of kings

Peace of the ruins
Peace of the doves in the bell tower
Peace of Iona

Iiiiii oooooo nnnnnaaaaaa
Iiiiii oooooo nnnnnaaaaaa

Peace of the rested mind
Peace of the glad heart
Peace of my lover's pots and potions

Peace of her healing hands
Peace of her lazy laughter
Peace of Iona

[4x]
Peace of the unseen
Peace of the spirit
Peace of Iona

Iiiiii oooooo nnnnnaaaaaa
Iiiiii oooooo nnnnnaaaaaa
Iiiiii oooooo nnnnnaaaaaa

"Politics"

"Politics"



How can I, that girl standing there, my attention fix
On Roman or on Russian or on Spanish politics?
Yet here's a travelled man who knows what he talks about
And there's a politician that has read and thought.

And maybe what they say is true of war and war's alarms
But oh that I were young again and held her in my arms.

"Preparing To Fly"

"Preparing To Fly"



I'm preparing to fly
Under my own steam
I'm preparing to fly
Into a dream

I'm in love all over again
I'm head over heels
I can't even begin
To tell you how it feels
She lives on a rock
Surrounded by light
She's young and she's wild
And she's treating me right

I'm preparing to fly
Under my own steam
I'm preparing to fly
Into a dream

I shed some light
I change my address
I haven't felt so great
Since I first went west
I've got brilliant intentions
Unthinkable plans
I've got sparks and electric shocks
Just exploding from my hands

I'm preparing to fly
Under my own steam
I'm preparing to fly
Into a dream

I'm back in the saddle
I'm out in the clear
I got no regrets
I've got nothing to fear
I've battled my demons
Come out on top
I'm gonna love you as hard as I can
Never gonna stop

I'm preparing to fly
Under my own steam
I'm preparing to fly
Into a dream

"Rags"

"Rags"



Everything is rags
And there's nobody to blame but me
And it would be so easy
If there was no one to hurt but me
But now everything that I do
Coming out of me will just tear through you
In and out of you
Up and down your life like a curse
Cast by the only Son of Rags
Who would wrap you up in all the finest tatters
Though he wanted nothing more, my loved one
Than to wrap you up in joy
But it'd never be with me
You and I are like two worlds
Not meant to collide
Death to each other
In the unravelling of time
So how do you..how do you...
How do you...how do you like it?
What kind of...what kind of...
What kind of dream would you call it
To have one foot in Eden
One foot in Hell
To be always numb
Plagued by demons
Summoned by angels
At the same time endlessly?
But I will
Burn me
Right out of this place
I will lay you down to sleep
So when you awake
I'll be gone and
You
Will remember
Nothing

"Rare, Precious And Gone"
(performed by Mike Scott)

"Rare, Precious And Gone"
(performed by Mike Scott)



Cry baby boy, not tears of joy
The one you held is no longer your toy
She's got her new boots and her make up on
You can call her your friend
But not your lover again
She's made it clear as air that this affair is at an end
So what are you doing holding on?

Don't you see she's
Rare, precious and she's gone
She's rare, precious and she's gone

She was soft in your hands, now she's shattered your plans
I'm sympathetic but you've got to understand
You tried to squeeze her somewhere
She just don't belong
She was being sincere when she breathed in your ear
As long as there were stars in the night sky she'd be near
Even angels get it wrong!

Won't you see she's
Rare, precious and she's gone
She's rare, precious and she's gone

It's a subtle trap
Seeding guilt in her mind
But she ain't taking your crap
This time
Boy you're out on a line...

She's a queen among women, a child among queens
The finest thing that your lovesick eyes have ever seen
She's a rose without a thorn
She's a peach, she's a prize
A gift in disguise
She's graceful and colourful and when she grows
She'll be wise
But most of all my friend, she's gone
Gone, gone gone!

She's rare, precious and she's gone
Rare, precious and she's gone
Yes, she's rare, precious and she's gone
She's rare, precious and she's gone
Gone, gone gone...

"Rattle My Bones And Shiver My Soul"

"Rattle My Bones And Shiver My Soul"



Once in my lifetime I intend to see
The Ladder ascending in front of me

I've been searching without
I've been searchin within
Up, down, all around, roundabout
Here and there, out and in

Because once in my lifetime I intend to see
The Ladder ascending in front of me

I have a come a long way
Over oceans and hills
I'm weary and unwhole
And I need my cup refilled

Once in my lifetime I intend to see
The Ladder ascending in front of me

"Ready For The Monkeyhouse"

"Ready For The Monkeyhouse"



Your face is like
The moment when the sexist hero traps
The slippy villain with the weasel face
You don't have to speak
Your expression is the truth
That your words don't say
And the truth won't go away
In many dark corners I have thought myself about this
Did you do it out of malice
Did you fall or were you kissed.

Could you ask your friend in the cowboy jacket
And those boots up to his knee
Would he shut his mouth for me
I've heard just enough
All I want to hear about pipes and drums
And how little time it takes the clutz to come
The golden gift of silence
Is I don't have to hear you speak
So would you take him out yourself
Before I put you both back in the street

Now the story shifts
And we see a young man
Standing in the wings
Too old before his time
Collecting grey hairs
He's proud and he's scared and he says "I don't care"
How can he be so blind
So how did you corrupt him
You must have got him where it counts
Now he's so numb he's ready to freeze
And you're ready for the monkey house

Ready for the monkey house
The monkey house but you won't take me
