Pretty Baby

Once or twice in your life so far 
Pretty Baby
I've seen you looking at the stars 
Pretty Baby
and asking where the years have disappeared
hearts don't break 
they shatter
when love is all that matters

And I will wait for you
until the end of time 
because I feel no charity 
when you're not here with me

Once or twice you may lose your way
Pretty Baby
Clouds may rain on your break of day
Pretty Baby
But I will love you darling anyway

These hands that select you 
Will comfort and protect you

And I will wait for you
until the end of time 
because I feel no charity 
when you're not here with me

South Side Run

Blocks off a V8 machine 
tough talk is calling it to the streets
his daddy fixed cars before he died 
now junior wears the family pride 

(I say now)
He was brave 
And he was fast 
And he bet it all 
On a south side run
She was raised 
(a little above his class)
But he drove fast 
(and that's all that mattered)
So she rode shotgun 
On a south side run

Stepped up he was ready to ride
and topped up his engine was warming up
psyched up he could see in his mind 
the other drivers falling behind
(I say now)
He was brave 
And he was fast 
And he bet it all 
On a south side run
She was raised 
(a little above his class)
But he drove fast 
(and that's all that mattered)
So she rode shotgun 
On a south side run 

Champagne stinging his eyes
a big check, bigger than pocket size
she got the thrill of her life 
'cause he drove like the edge of a knife

(I say now)
He was brave 
And he was fast 
And he bet it all 
On a south side run
She was raised 
(a little above his class)
But he drove fast 
(and that's all that mattered)
So she rode shotgun 
On a south side run

It's Just My Pain

You asked me what's in the corner 
of my room?

IT'S JUST MY PAIN
IT'S JUST MY PAIN

You ask me who is that lying 
on my bed?

IT'S JUST MY PAIN
IT'S JUST MY PAIN

IT'S JUST MY PAIN, IT'S JUST MY PAIN

IT'S JUST MY PAIN
IT'S JUST MY PAIN

IT'S JUST MY PAIN, IT'S JUST MY PAIN

IT'S JUST MY PAIN
IT'S JUST MY PAIN

You ask me who is that crying
On the stairs?

IT'S JUST MY PAIN
IT'S JUST MY PAIN

You ask me who is that bleeding
on the chair?

IT'S JUST MY PAIN
IT'S JUST MY PAIN

IT'S JUST MY PAIN, IT'S JUST MY PAIN

IT'S JUST MY PAIN
IT'S JUST MY PAIN

Anesthesia

When you're over and out
and your mood gets in the way 
when you're over and out
and your mood gets in the way 

don't be a murderer by night 
'cause I really want you
Don't be a murderer by night

'cause I don't want you
if it don't feel right
and I don't believe 
that we have to fight

BUT I BELIEVE IN ANESTHESIA!

When you're running around 
and your head gets in the way 
when you're running around 
and your head gets in the way 

don't be a murderer by night 
'cause I really want you
Don't be a murderer by night

'cause I don't want you
if it don't feel right
and I don't believe 
that we have to fight

BUT I BELIEVE IN ANESTHESIA!

'cause I don't want you
if it don't feel right
and I don't believe 
that we have to fight

BUT I BELIEVE IN ANESTHESIA!

When Night Was Calling

back when 
when the days they had no end
and it was easier to find a friend
and the roses were as fresh as rain

back then 
when the hours they had no time 
and we couldn't find that much pain
and trouble was just a game

remember 
when we were younger
and the night was calling you

remember 
when we were younger
and the night was calling you

back when
we lived on the edge of a dare 
and we pulled nature by the hair
and spanked the moon without care 

back then
it was as lovely as it would get
we were double knuckle drenched in sweat 
and we would fight until the bell would swell

remember 
when we were younger
and the night was calling you

remember 
when we were younger
and the night was calling you

Screamer

I knew my father like the back of his hand
more father than I needed to understand
I was brought up in the world to suppress my scream
I didn't realize it could spoil all my dreams

If all I've got is one last dream
then I'm not gonna beg if you know what I mean

'cause now I'm a screamer
now I'm a screamer

I knew my father like a military child
marching to another rhythm single file
I was brought up in the world to hide my pride
and took it undercover until time was on my side

If all I've got is one last dream
then I'm not gonna beg if you know what I mean

'cause now I'm a screamer
now I'm a screamer

I knew my father like a west bound train
I curled up in a cloud form and prayed for rain
I was brought up in the world to suppress my rage
I didn't realize I could die in that cage

If all I've got is one last dream
then I'm not gonna beg you better listen to me

'cause now I'm a screamer
now I'm a screamer

Honestly

You ask me if I'm still in love with you
You ask me if your love still follows through
You ask me if there's more that you can do
but 

Honestly
I get what I need from you
Honestly
I get what I need from you

You ask me if your smile still has it's glow
You ask me if it's someone you might know
You ask me if your kisses still ring true

Honestly
I get what I need from you
Honestly
I get what I need from you

You ask me if I'm still in love with you

Honestly
I get what I need from you
Honestly
I get what I need from you
Honestly
I get what I need from you

Irene

Through dangerous thunder mountains
through a rugged and raging sea
with a stagger and bloodshot eyes

Irene
I lean on you
Irene
I lean on you

Through the jungle with bullets flying
with the mercury jumping and rising
with an anger that's full on view

Irene
I lean on you
Irene
I lean on you

Through the gravel with knuckles dragging
through community finger wagging
with a stagger and bloodshot eyes

Irene
I lean on you
Irene
I lean on you
Irene
I lean on you

Marlene

You walk a fine line on the streets
But I love you baby
You walk a fine line on the streets
You do
You hang on until the dawn
And wake to find out that you're gone

Marlene
I'm here to love you
Marlene
I'm here to care
Marlene
I'm here to love you
Anywhere

The nights are lonely but
They know you well
And the days are hostile
In between
But the nights are on your side
And hearts are beating for your time

Marlene
I'm here to love you
Marlene
I'm here to care
Marlene
I'm here to love you
Anywhere

You walk a fine line on the streets
But I love you baby
You walk a fine line on the streets
You do
You hang on until the dawn
And wake to find out that you're gone

Marlene
I'm here to love you
Marlene
I'm here to care
Marlene
I'm here to love you
Anywhere

The Ballad of Lonesome Rhodes

Soldier boys chasing after you
With the older boys racing for you too
I was slowly feeling fine
I was so excited
There we were dancing on the dunes
She said she was a step child of the moon
She was so inside my head
That my mind could soon be read
But she was someone else's mystery to unravel
So farther down the lonesome road I travel

I met her when the wind was blowing in
And I kissed her when the waves had wet her skin
I was slowly feeling fine
I was so delighted
Tumbleweeds drifting in the breeze
And hanging like the lovers on her sleeve
She was so inside my head
That my heart would soon be bled
But she was someone else's mystery to unravel
So farther down the lonesome road I travel
Guess she was someone else's mystery to unravel
So farther down the lonesome road I travel
I travel

C.Y.A.M.G.

sail your silver waters slowly
the straits are wide
there's a veil between your shadow
and your appetite
so throw your arms around me baby
and

take a look in the mirror
'cause you are my girl
take a look in the mirror
'cause you are my girl
take a look in the mirror
'cause you are my girl
put your red dress on
and put on your lipstick
because I want a red kiss from you

dance around your ashes
when you burn inside
once the arrow pierces your heart
it turns the tide
so throw your arms around me baby
and

take a look in the mirror
'cause you are my girl
take a look in the mirror
'cause you are my girl
take a look in the mirror
'cause you are my girl
put your red dress on
and put on your lipstick
because I want a red kiss from you

take a look in the mirror
'cause you are my girl
take a look in the mirror
'cause you are my girl
take a look in the mirror
'cause you are my girl
put your red dress on
and put on your lipstick
because I want a red kiss from you

Duchess

I met a girl who's just for me
She waited there so patiently

I met a girl she's my style and
I thought I heard her say she was
The Queen of The Island

She was the Duchess of Hallelujah
But on Saturday night she'd fool ya
A Diva on the silver screen
But she wasn't like that with me
She wasn't like that with me
I was in it for the morning glory
And I wanted to hear her story
I wanted to hear her story

I met a girl who's just my speed
Full satisfaction guaranteed

I met a girl she's my style and
I thought I heard her say she was
The Queen of The Island

She was the Duchess of Hallelujah
But on Saturday night she'd fool ya
A Diva on the silver screen
But she wasn't like that with me
She wasn't like that with me
I was in it for the morning glory
And I wanted to hear her story
I wanted to hear her story

I met a girl who's just for me
She waited there so patiently

I met a girl she's my style and
I thought I heard her say she was
The Queen of The Island

She was the Duchess of Hallelujah
But on Saturday night she'd fool ya
A Diva on the silver screen
But she wasn't like that with me
She wasn't like that with me
I was in it for the morning glory
And I wanted to hear her story
I wanted to hear her story
I wanted to hear her story….

Madame Swan

Madame Swan 
Are you feeling in your swans today
Or are you on your lake 
Feeling the waves of heartbreak?

Madame Swan
Are you feeling in your swans today
Or are you on your hill 
Waiting for waters to be still?

Love floats and flies away
Into a dream
You are the last song 
That I'll sing

Madame Swan 
Are you gazing at the lonely moon
And can you hear it sigh
Bringing fresh starlight to your eye?

Madame Swan
Are you floating on a bed of tears
Or is it you in your mind 
Just feeling the shallows this time?

Love floats and flies away
Into a dream
You are the last song 
That I'll sing

Madame Swan 
Are you feeling in your swans today
Or are you on your lake 
Feeling the waves of heartbreak?

Sometimes You Gotta Cry

Sometimes you gotta cry
Sometimes you gotta cry just like a man
Sometimes you gotta cry
Sometimes you gotta cry just like a man

The midnight family dog 
Is barking in the moonlight
I walk the floor every night
While he fights the hand that he don't bite

Sometimes you gotta cry
Sometimes you gotta cry just like a man
Sometimes you gotta cry
Sometimes you gotta cry just like a man

The search light is shining bright
But it never finds my shadow
And all my yesterdays
Were traded for tomorrow

Sometimes you gotta cry
Sometimes you gotta cry just like a man
Sometimes you gotta cry
Sometimes you gotta cry just like a man

The worm that's in my mind 
Tried to steal the apple of my eye
A vampire licking his gums 
And his teeth were shaped like number ones

Sometimes you gotta cry
Sometimes you gotta cry just like a man
Sometimes you gotta cry
Sometimes you gotta cry just like a man

Ok

She'll be arriving today 
On the 5:15 
An old school friend 
Whom I can't wait to see before the summer ends

She'll be tired and then 
She'll ask me how 
The years look now 
On a face that time has kissed between the lines

It seems to me 
Effectively
Your destiny is fine
And you seem to be 
Happy

OK 
So you're not a young girl anymore
OK 
So you're not a young girl anymore

It seems to me 
Effectively
Your destiny is fine
And you seem to be 
Happy

She's been divorced for a while
The same routine 
She groomed his style 
Until he fell into the back of 17

She's got a favourite son
Her only child 
The only one 
Who can turn her face into an instant smile

It seems to me 
Effectively
Your destiny is fine
And you seem to be 
Happy

OK 
So you're not a young girl anymore
OK 
So you're not a young girl anymore

It seems to me 
Effectively
Your destiny is fine
And you seem to be 
Happy

She was alone on the train
The window view 
She used her time
To think about the things that she wanted to do

She said some changes were made 
She owns her life 
Where, once a wife, 
Now she spends more time on vice than sacrifice

It seems to me 
Effectively
Your destiny is fine
And you seem to be 
Happy

OK 
So you're not a young girl anymore
OK 
So you're not a young girl anymore

It seems to me 
Effectively
Your destiny is fine
And you seem to be 
Happy

If I Were

If I were your lover now 
I wouldn't leave a stone unturned
I would just watch my bridges burn
As you lead me down the highway

If I were your lover now 
I wouldn't have to hold my pride
I would just let my spirit ride
As I lead you down the highway

Soldier boys vaingloriously 
Bleed for your captain's story
Tombstones catalogue the young dead
Like paperback books gone unread

If I were your lover now 
I wouldn't leave your heart alone
I would just make a house and home
From your whispers and your sweet moan

If I were your lover now 
I wouldn't have to cross your mind
We could just live on what we find 
In the moonlight and the sunshine

Soldier boys vaingloriously 
Bleed for your captain's story
Tombstones catalogue the young dead
Like paperback books gone unread

If I were your lover now 
I wouldn't leave a stone unturned
I would just watch my bridges burn
As you lead me down the highway

If I were your lover now 
You wouldn't have to cross your mind
We could just live on what we find 
In the moonlight and the sunshine

Spoil Your Rotten

Hello my Virginia
And goodbye to all your lonely days
Hello my Virginia
In my mind I know that she's the real Bombay ( Mumbai )

Hello sweet freedom 
And goodbye to all the reckless ways
In order for me to flow 
I knew I had to get the hell out of LA

"They'll sail without you if you go"
(So I go) 
'cause when I'm with her
My birds fly

That's why I'll spoil you 
Spoil you rotten
'cause I'm your I'm your cotton
Because you've picked me baby
I'll spoil you baby
Spoil you 
Spoil you rotten
'cause I'm your I'm your cotton
Because you've picked me baby
I'll spoil you baby

Hello my Virginia 
Kick off your shoes and walk my way
I once had a woman bleed me 
And left my mind like the ruins of Pompeii 

Hello my Maitreya 
And goodbye to all the things they say
'cause I had to box the big boys
And I had to pull my cash out of the clay

"They'll sail without you if you go"
(So I go) 
'cause when I'm with her
My birds fly

And that's why I'll spoil you 
Spoil you rotten
'cause I'm your I'm your cotton
Because you've picked me baby
I'll spoil you baby
Spoil you 
Spoil you rotten
'cause I'm your I'm your cotton
Because you've picked me baby
I'll spoil you baby

The Owl and the Pussycat

If you shed a little light on it baby
I know it'll be all right
Yes it will
If you shed a little light on it baby
I know it'll be all right
Yes it will

Sometimes you have to fall 
But you can have it all 
it'll be all right

if you pour a little love on it baby
then let me rub it in
(it's what I recommend) 
that if you pour a little love on it baby
then let me rub it in
(recommend) 

You sometimes have to cry
To turn the question why 
Into a sigh

The Owl and the Pussycat are getting along together
The Owl and the Pussycat are getting along together

And fancy that
An Owl and a Pussycat
Are getting along together
Fancy that
An Owl and a Pussycat
Are getting along together

If you shed a little light on it baby
I know it'll be all right
Of course it will
If you shed a little light on it baby
I know it'll be all right
Yes it will

Sometimes have to fall 
But you can have it all 
it'll be all right

The Owl and the Pussycat are getting along together
The Owl and the Pussycat are getting along together

And fancy that
An Owl and a Pussycat
Are getting along together
And fancy that
An Owl and a Pussycat
Are getting along together

O Jacaranda

I was robbed! 
She was framed
And it was love by any other name
It was war 
And much more
Like pulling worms out of the apple core

O Jacaranda
I wanna be your Panda
O Jacaranda
I wanna be your Panda

I was young 
And alive 
With all the bitter fruits of paradise
Then she came
With a game
And it was love by any other name

O Jacaranda
I wanna be your Panda
O Jacaranda
I wanna be your Panda

O Jacaranda
I wanna be your Panda
O Jacaranda
I wanna be your Panda
