"Slipping Away"

"Slipping Away"



All the world knows
Yet none know well
To shun the heaven
That lead men to this hell

If all the stars
Disappear and die
And I am looking at an empty sky
Oh I'll be damned
Back behind the sun
This kind of love
Can't be bought or won.

And when every second counts
When the minutes
Turn a night into a day
Because the closer you get
The further you slip away
Because the closer you get
The further love slip on away

When the summer rain came
Well it kissed our feet
And a magic moon lay down on our street
Oh love and death
It's like war and peace
One single outreach
On this empty beach
Cos you're damned if you do
And you're damned if you don't
Want her to stay oh hey, hey
Because the closer you get
The further you slip away
Cos the closer you get
The further love slip on away,
Slipped away
Ooh na na na na na na, na na na na na na
Slipping away, slipping away

These plastic bags and these crushed up cans
This twisted wreck on some foreign land
Better hold close what you hold so dear
Cos the vanishing point is coming oh so near
All this world knows
Yet none know well
To shun this heaven
That lead men to this hell
The closer you get
The further you slip away
I said now, the closer you get
The further love slips away, slips away, slips away
The closer you get, the further you slip on away
Cos the closer you get, the further love slips onaway,
Slipping away

"Some Other Guy"

"Some Other Guy"



Some other guy, has taken my love away
Some other guy, better start learning how to pray

The world it just keeps turning
The midnight oil's still burning
And you're not coming home

The phone it just stopped ringing
There's no late night singing
What am I gonna do with this life

And the moon it's still waning
Up on the roof it's still raining
Oh it's a mess of the blues
And it ain't nothing but losing you

Some other guy, has taken my very heart and soul
Some other guy has dug a very big hole

The cat it just keeps whining
The dog it just keeps pining
Wasting away
The traffic lights still change
But Oh this house still feels so strange

And the moon it's still waning
Up on the roof it's still raining
But I'm a mess for you
I'm just a mess of the blues
Ain't nothing but losing you
Come on home honey

I should've seen it coming
Should've started running
When you changed your hair
Baby's got it coming
And there ain't no difference here
But the house is just the same
Oh darling you've gone away
Ain't nothing but the blues
That you've given me
Ain't nothing but the blues
You've given me
And it ain't nothing but losing

"Someone's Gonna Have To Pay"

"Someone's Gonna Have To Pay"


American beauty
Came up and spoke
She touched her toes
And we shared a joke
Taxi's, limos,
Power boat glides
Jet skies, mensa,
Babes without a ride

You know the revolutions gone now
There's no revolution song
Somewhere down the line
You know on one of Gods good days
Can you hear me,
Someone's gonna have to pay

Moonshot, rockets
Nineteen sixties cool
Sonny Boy Williamson,
Pope John Paul
The Congo to Vietnam
The Beatles to the Stones
Is nobody left
Who's gonna shake those bones?

You know the revolutions gone now
There's no revolution song
Somewhere down the line
You know on one of Gods good days
Can you hear me,
Someone's gonna have to pay

Pay all the time

[Solo]

All of the misfits
All of the scars
All of life's promises
Bottled in jars
There's a hum and a howl.
Lovers on the run
Tell me what's on offer
From the government scum

[Solo]

Rats will get richer
And the dirt beg for more
Crumbs on the table
For the world of the poor
News of self worship
Fresh from Hollywood
The pygmies of poison,
Don't know bad from good

You know the revolutions gone now
There's no revolution song
Somewhere down the line
You know on one of Gods good days
Can you hear me,
Someone's gonna have to pay

Oh that's pay all the time
Someones got to pay

You ain't walkin'
You ain't talkin'
You got to pay

While I'm looking over your shoulder
You got to pay

"Somethin' Else"

"Somethin' Else"


Look there! Here she comes
Here comes that girl again
Wanted to date her since I don't know when
She don't notice me when I pass
She goes with all the guys out of my class
That ain't stopping me from thinking to myself
She's sure fine looking she's something else

Look there, cross the street
There's a car made just for me
To own that car would be a luxury
Right now I can't afford the gas
Brand new convertible's out of my class
That ain't stopping me from thinking to myself
That car's fine looking and she's something else

[INSTRUMENTAL]

Well look here wait and see
Work hard and save my dough
I bought a car at the motor show
Me and that girl we go round and round
Look real sharp with the flat top down
Keep dreaming and thinking to myself
If it comes all true she's something else

Look here what's all this
Never gone through this before
Here I am knocking on the door
Car's out front, it's all mine
It's a '49 job not a '59
I got the girl and I'm thinking to myself
She's sure fine looking she's something else

"Space Child"

"Space Child"



Goin' through pages and lookin' down lines and lines
Space of your life is only passing you by
Space child ages as he turns and faces the lines
Then after laughter was caught in his throat as he died
Fly on homeward

Worlds are spinnin' by, makes clouds in your eyes and eyes
The space of your life is only passing you by

"Star Storm"

"Star Storm"


Lost myself in a distant starry storm
trying to find my way down
Somebody shut child a door in my head
had to turn around

But I gotta little time to set by
Gotta let my feelings all shine
You know that it will be all right
I gotta get your love for just mine

Found a starry storm it held me close,

Tryin' to find my way home
Took a distant walk in a starry mile
Had to turn and smile

But I gotta little time to let my
Gotta let my feelings all fly
You know that it will be all right
Gotta get your love for just mine

Hold on fast gonna catch a shooting star
Gotta find me a way
Get from this starry storm today
Never leave this place

But I gotta little time to let fly
Gotta let my feelings oh shine
You know that it will be all right
Gotta get your loving just right

[instrumental]

Found a starry storm held me close
Take me back today
All I want to do is fly away
Really couldn't say

But I gotta little time to set by
Gotta let my feelings all shine
You know that it will be all right
Gotta get your loving just right

Lost myself by heaven's chance
Trying to find a way down
Took a distance walk in a starry mile
Had to turn and smile

But I gotta little time to let fly
Gotta let my feelings oh shine
You know that it will be oh right
Gotta get your loving just fine

"Steal Yourself"

"Steal Yourself"



It’s a long road
Take me back to you babe
It’s a long time
To get you off my mind

A sheaf of broken arrows
That won't fly true
Took a wrong turn
That took me home to you babe

Steal yourself
On cheap talking wine
Kill yourself
For one of your lies

You know you're gonna kill yourself

Take a backseat
Watch the buffalo
Feel this heart beat
Watch the night time glow
Dug a hole in my day
With your black cat stray
Took a long, long time baby
To get you off my mind

And you steal yourself
For one of those highs again
Kill yourself
For just one lie

And you steal yourself
On cheap talking wine
Kill yourself
For one of your lies
And you steal yourself
With one of your lies

And you steal yourself
For one of those highs again
Kill yourself
For just one lie

Steal yourself
On cheap talking wine
Kill yourself
For one of your lies

You know you're gonna kill yourself babe
You gonna tell one of those lies again
You just all were your highs
You gotta your cheap talking lies, oh yeah

Oh, here we come now, now, now

"Stop Breaking Down"

"Stop Breaking Down"



Just leave another message
Pin it on your door
Don't hold your breath boy
She don't live here no more
The telephones disconnected
Papers fall out the box
The manager won't speak to me
Someone's changed the locks

Stop breaking down
Lisa don't live here no more
Stop breaking down
She's will always be your beautiful

She's in every hotel room
It looks and smells the same
One night in simi valley
Was washed up in the rain
The cell phones ringing dead
There's no one here to call
I ring missing persons now
They turn me to the wall

Stop breaking down
Lisa don't live here no more
Stop breaking down
She's will always be your beautiful
Stop breaking down
Lisa don't live here no more
Stop breaking down
She's will always be your beautiful

"Stopped By A Bullet"

"Stopped By A Bullet"




Love and the stranger
So very far from home
A kid was playing Little Wing
I sat drinking on my own

Love and danger
Oh, they walk hand in hand
Said she was an actress
Thought I was in a band

Stopped by a bullet
She's a pinball rolling round my head
She turned on a dime
Left me for dead
I found love for the very first time

Hey Arizona, I can feel your heat
And I never, loved a tattoo
The way that I love you

Hey Arizona, in the coolest, desert wind
Willie's singing "Whiskey River"
I let love walk in

[1]
Stopped by a bullet
She's a pinball rolling round my head
She turned on a dime
Left me for dead
I found love for the very first time
Loved for the very first time
I found love for the very first time
Love for the very first time

Hey little Joe
Is that your working name
Are you hiding something
Or is the truth a darker stain

Hey little Joe
I'm not another fan
The chorus line's a pickup
And I'm a one night stand

[Repeat (1)]

"Stranger In Town"

"Stranger In Town"



Mr walking tall
This is an early call
It's judgement day
Mr talking fool
All roads lead to you
There gonna be hell to pay

If the fish don't eat you
Oh the money will
If i don't beat you
Someone will

There's a stranger in town
There's a stranger in town

Mr shoestring
He's the class
There's 3.57
Gonna shove it up your

Mr high society
Swinging from a tree now
Hanging on a gibbet
Mr walking talk
His accomplices
Everybody's here
Take no blow
Everybody's at the party
Everybody's knows your name
So sweet the hangman's singing
Sometimes you gotta fall
Down down down

Everybody's at the party
Everybody's knows your name
So sweet the hangman's singing
This time i know your game
You gotta kill them now
