Joan As Police Woman

Joan Wasser Joan As Police Woman Lyrics
1.My Gurl

The ceiling below
The length of your shoulders
Is slipping
And reeling
In stopped motion
In stopped motion
In stopped motion

On the path, the fine line
Moving to my gurl
My twin, undetectable
My criminal
We're keeping the sea sated

Straight ahead with focus
Moving to my gurl
Amidst the rage, the firing range
And fashion
The clicking of heels surrounds me
Oh-oh
I call to the sky
'we will rise up, against the invisible'
I'll brush the hair from my eyes
Cause it's in my way
And I wanna see you see me shine

I know the way in
And you all the way in
I live in the shake-me
And you so suddenly

Feeling you before me
Moving to my gurl
Black pearls of blood rotation
We're living in true wonder

I call to the sky
'we will rise up, against the invisible'
I'll brush the hair from my eyes
Cause it's in my way
And I wanna see you see me shine
I call to the sky
'we will rise up, against the invisible'
I'll brush the hair from my eyes
Cause it's in my way
And I wanna see you see me shine

Hot flashes the way inside you
I will bend in the ocean
And spread the sky
I know the way in
And you all the way in
I will bend in the ocean
And spread the sky


2.Prime Mover

'Follow me', he said
Staring at my face again
He said,'I want to be your Farrakhan
Forget all the things you heard about
I'm your man', he said

If I were all together crazy
I wouldn't feel a thing
When he said all those things he said
But I'm not there yet
So I followed him
I followed him instead

I found the prime mover
He's the hero in my head
The pale moonlight
The pale moonlight
Prime mover
He's the hero in my head
The pale moonlight
Even when the sun's blazing

I want everything
I want everything

'Cause sometimes I don't want to lead
I play the horses all the time
It's true
I like him 'cause he let's me hold the fruit
While he tests it out
Over and over again

I found the prime mover
He's the hero in my head
The pale moonlight
The pale moonlight
He's the prime mover
He's the hero in my head
He's the pale moonlight
Even when the sun's blazing
I found the prime mover
He's the hero in my head
In the pale moonlight
Even when the sun's blazing

'Cause
I want everything
I want everything
I want everything


3.Stagger Into The Light

I do
Want every night
To feel like the eagle in flight
I do
And if you feel like you might
Want to share this with me
Well, I beckon you
To me

This is an attempt to recover
The stone in the gold
And the ice, ever-crystalline
And the oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
That acts like it's lost it's place
In this warring world

Listen to me
Stagger into the light
Stagger into the light

The earth is child
Treat her tonight as if she were infant
And you're her first springtime
Remember the human piece
Rips like tissue when trying to get the gift
This gift

This is an attempt to recover
The song in the reed
How it bends to become you
And the oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
That acts like it's lost it's place
In this warring world

Listen to me
Stagger into the light
Stagger into the light
Oh-
Stagger into the light

Cause I do
Feel like tonight could be every night
For forever
And I know you feel the same way
I do, I do

Send you eyes my way
We'll recover the warmth of the dirt
And the shine in the salty air
And the oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
That acts like it's lost it's place
In this warring world

Stagger into the light
Stagger into the light
Oh
Stagger into the light


4.Game Of Life

Could this be my fate tonight
That I could be meeting my match
Or does this card I play really have nothing to do
With the game of life
Cause I've thieved
And I feel hated for
All of the tricks that I've played
In the game of life

Will I walk the line tonight
Even thought there's something missing
I'm afraid my heart is gone
Left me nothing more than a love for a man
So I'll seethe and I'll slither
Towards your hot lights
Red lights giant exploding
Exploding in the name of life

Will I fall into the arms that cannot hold me
Or will I hit the target
And fall into the arms of you
Of you

Something's got to give tonight
Baby baby I need it to
You are me and I am you
So what's the fuss
I'll seethe and I'll slither
Towards you hot lights
Red light giant exploding in the name of life

Will I fall into the arms that cannot hold me
Or will I hit the target
And fall into the arms of you
Of you


5.How Come You're So Solid Gold

This is the scent of modern love
This is the scent of modern love
It's in the creep, hideaway
And it's in the sink, hideaway
Start now
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

It's in the holler, modern love
It's in the holler, modern love
Well this is the dark sea, hideaway
And I am your finger maid, hideaway
Start now
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

It's on the land
I can't forgo the forgotten

Why don't you fall asleep without me, for once, daddy
Why don't you fall asleep without me, for once, daddy
Cause you know I need you
You know I need you
You're the wise child

This is the send-up, modern love
This is the send-up, modern love
Well do it away, child
It's easy
Way away
It's easy now
You're stalling
How come you're so solid gold
Well I'll be your finger maid
I'll be your finger maid
Just start now
Start now.

Oh heart
I see you all around me now
Oh heart
I feel you all around me now
Oh heart
I feel you all around me now
Oh, ooh
Oh, ooh


6.Could It Still Be Tonight(Bonus Track)

Could it still be tonight
Vanishing in a dream
From your house of burning fire
You move through me
Until I no longer, no longer feel
Remember me
I know I'm blind
It's dreaming time again
And I miss you

Could it still be tonight
Vanishing
