1.Everybody Loves A Happy Ending
Toe the line
Toe the line
Wake up your time is nearly over
No more the supernova
And no action guaranteed
Wake up you've had an operation
Ideals above your station
Too much reality
Think about the waste of time spending
Watching Mother Nature's knees bending
Everybody loves a happy ending
Wake up you're on your own agenda
Give up the great pretender
With baby eyes of green
Wake up you're holding on to nothing
You know you're only bluffing
As dead as autumn leaves
Think about the waste of time spending
Watching Mother Nature's knees bending
Everybody loves a happy ending
Don't you just love a happy ending？
Oh yeah well so do I
And all your love will shine on everyone
The darkness of the day
A curse in every way
You try to see the light
But you don't know why
Don't know why
They tell you on the phone
To give your God a bone
And grow a set of wings like a butterfly
The guarding at the gate
Reminds you that you're late
You try to take your time
But you toe the line
Toe the line
The children of the world
And daddy's little girl
The grass is always green on the other side
So stay and breathe new lies
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Everything is moving faster than you think
(Wake up, wake up)
Your pen is running out of ink
(Wake up, wake up)
Fill up your bath and kitchen sink
(Wake up, wake up)
They're really kicking up the stink
(Wake up, wake up)
You've never found the missing link
(Wake up, wake up)
You should be happy in the pink.
(Wake up, wake up)
You're in demand but out of sync.
(Wake up, wake up)
A nod is as good as a wink.
(Wake up, wake up)
Once more, my dear friends, to the brink.
2.Closest Thing To Heaven
28 days of rain
Flash floods in February
Back in our boats again
Bath water and the baby
What am I gonna do？
There's been a lot of drinking
Looking at ghosts of you
While all the world is sinking
10.000 miles into the atmosphere
My body shakes
Is there a welcome here？
Closest thing to heaven
How do you do it？
Closest thing to heaven, heaven
Throw your arms round the world
Make love your destination
Here we go boys and girls
Act like a generation
Give me that ball and chain
By now it must be hurting
Dragging your feet again
Just like a beast of burden
When one and one and one make two
I know I'm high because I've captured you,
yeah...
Closest thing to heaven
Yeah, it's you
Closest thing to heaven, heaven
Look the world right in the eye
Eat the countries that are making billions
Sweet as homemade apple pie
Saved by crumbs for all the starving millions, yeah
Closest thing to heaven
Closest thing to heaven
How do you do it？
Closest thing to heaven
Uhh, hey
Closest thing to heaven
3.Call Me Mellow
Fill the sky with love
Fill the sky with love
I wouldn't mind but she just turned up on the doorstep
Wishful and ashen, slightly bedraggled
Last time I saw her she was howling at the moon
Roaming the forest, lupine and rabid
Woah is she wild？
Does she see my inner child？
But then she knows it's like a curse
To find our chosen roles reversed
To unify my universe
To call me mellow
If only I was half my age and she was older
We'd live on ice-cream on Coney Island
I though it's gravity that drags down my balloon
She stays in orbit way after midnight
Woah slip and slide
Does she go all dewey-eyed？
But then she knows it's like a curse
To find our chosen roles reversed
To unify my universe
To call me mellow
She'll dress down for us
She'll break new ground for us
Watching me cracking up
She'll hang round fellahs
With all the groundswellers
Driving me like a truck
But then she knows it's like a curse
To find our chosen roles reversed
To unify my universe
To call me mellow
But then she knows it's like a curse
To find our chosen roles reversed
To unify my universe
To call me mellow
Fill the sky with love
Fill the sky with love
Fill the sky with love
4.Size Of Sorrow
Bathe in another man's grave
In time we'll follow
Save all your thoughts for these days
Don't steal just borrow
Well a high wire
Is a dangerous game
But a hard act to follow
If I fly high like a moth to a flame
Would you eyes be the size of sorrow？
Pain, I can understand pain
Sometimes you just swallow
Say we can make it OK
Don't steal just borrow
With the high wire
Is a dangerous game
But a hard act to follow
If I fly high like a moth to a flame
Would your eyes be the size of sorrow？
5.Who Killed Tangerine？
Whatcha gonna choose the poison or the lines
Lived with crazy paving all your life
Something in your mind just tells you no
Hope in conversation starts to flow
Stuck inside a wheel, inside a wheel
Wondering everyday is it all for real
Blinking every time a cold wind blow
Our love don't fill a mile in rose
Tangerine, Tangerine
Watcha gonna do when the old man reads you dry
Step down from the plane and pluck the eye
Slide in deeper closer to the bone
Don't you just wish your heart was made of stone？
Waxing like an old cracked 45
Counting out the ways you could stay alive
Placed in body bags and fill with stones
My love won't bleed her wings are foam
And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over
And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over
And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over
Who killed tangerine？
The prettiest girl I've ever seen
Who killed tangerine？
Who killed tangerine？
The prettiest girl I've ever seen
Who killed tangerine？
And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over
And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over
And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over
6.Quiet Ones
It's always the quiet ones
Who are stranger than fiction
They hide under tables like a child
What kind of chemistry is it？
Leaden or golden？
Nobody sees them driving us wild
It's your life
Don't just collide with the waves
Oh look into her eyes
You'll see such silent calling
Nothing seems to matter in this life
Wake up your majesty there are
Thieves in the temple
Picking the sunspots out of the sun
Looking for symmetry in man
Another dead Beatle
Down through the path we see how they run
It's your life
Don't just collide with the ways
Oh look into her eyes
You'll see such silent calling
Nothing seems to matter in this life
Oh so many reasons why
You hear the silence calling
Nothing seems to matter in this life
Oh salvation shine a light on a different world
And carry out thoughts on golden rays
7.Who You Are
Someone's drinking all alone
Someone's left the TV on
I don't suppose
No I don't suppose
Someone's sleeping in my bed
Someone's let the genie in
I don't suppose
No I don't suppose
You know who you are
Who you are
Who you are today
Baby's gone and died again
Taken by the tide again
And it's no surprise
She hates goodbyes
Someone's folding paper planes
Someone's on the line again
Someone's crying at the sonnet
Someone's hiding from someone
I don't suppose, no I don't suppose
You know who you are
Who you are
Who you are today
8.The Devil
The devil, take me now
Before I'm ushered out
'Cause you are like me
But I can bleed
And I can die
But I can't hide
From you
Prisoners of course
Taken by force
To smother my streams
Tonight in my dreams
'Cause I can die
But I can't hide
The way is clear
Away from here
And you
9.Secret World
This is a garden
This is a steeple
I hear the crowd
Before I ever
See the people
Yours for the asking
And for the taking
There is a power
In the vacuum
We are making
You and I have a secret world
And we can keep it unfurled
And pay no attention
To the cradle or the grave
And when we're crossed
We can say that we're lost
In the middle of nowhere
Think you'll like it a lot
And if we're wrong
And we end up alone
We'll light a candle
For their innocent bones
You and I have a secret world
And we can keep it unfurled
And pay no attention
To the cradle or the grave
You and I have a secret world
And we can keep it unfurled
And pay no attention
To the cradle or the grave
And when we're crossed
We can say that we're lost
In the middle of nowhere
Think you'll like it a lot
And if we're wrong
And we end up alone
We'll light a candle
For their innocent bones
You and I have a secret world
And we can keep it unfurled
And pay no attention
To the cradle or the grave
And when we're crossed
We can say that we're lost
In the middle of nowhere
Think you'll like it a lot
And if we're wrong
And we end up alone
We'll light a candle
For their innocent bones
10.Killing With Kindness
Don't cry for me my baby
Don't say a word
Everyone knows you're a dangerous bird
Fly like a golden eagle
Sleek like the snow
Ticking your time bomb where ever you go
You're sinking a line without a trace
With elegant crimes against the state
Killing with kindness yeah
Making the most of the mess oh yeah
You might wanna try this yeah, yeah
Just kill them with kindness yeah, yeah
Bite pillow politician
Now you've been caught
Came from behind
It's a dangerous spot
Green are the seeds of envy
Watch how they grow
Everyone knows there's a fire down below
You're sinking a line without a trace
With elegant crimes against the state
Killing with kindness yeah
Making the most of the mess oh yeah
You might wanna try this yeah, yeah
Just kill them with kindness yeah, yeah
Killing with kindness
Raising the ghost from the flesh oh yeah
Don't blind them with science yeah, yeah
Just kill them with kindness yeah, yeah
Turn your back
And you might understand
Become your destiny
And you'll be a lucky man
Don't let anything stand in your way
11.Ladybird
Tell me a story of mind over matter
The hope and glory of life ever after
The sound and the fury the cloak and the dagger
Days when we sink like a stone
Porcelain portraits and silver medallions
Plasticine soldiers that march in battalions
Angels of mercy and lifelong companions
Days when we sink like a stone
There a room somewhere with a different look
Where your secret life is an open book
Where the love we made was a chance we took
Days when we sink like a stone
Ladybird fly away our friends are gone
Ladybird fly away our house is on fire
Let us be lovers we'll melt after midnight
Hoist up the mainsail we'll coast through the daylight
Twisted like candles that fade in the half-light
Days when we sink like a stone
Well we die sometimes to begin again
When the same old dreams have the same old end
When we lose our mind or we lose our friends
Days when we sink like a stone
Ladybird fly away our friends are gone
Ladybird fly away our house is on fire
Ladybird fly away our friends are gone
Ladybird fly away our house is on fire
Your friends have gone
Porcelain portraits and silver medallions
Your friends have gone
Plasticine soldiers that march in battalions
Your friends have gone
Angels of mercy and lifelong companions
Tell me a story of mind over matter
The hope and glory of life ever after
The sound and the fury the cloak and the dagger
Ladybird fly away our friends are gone
Ladybird fly away our house is on fire
12.Last Days On Earth
Tired of this elegant life
With the best will in the world
It's a thorn in your side
Dazed, not a little confused
Let the patient do the work
They got nothing to lose
I told you
I'd hold you
'til the last days on earth
Ties that are tested and tried
Like the crushing of the waves
We'll be lost in the tide
Talk away the pain for the very last time
Like an echo in a cave
Let it die in your mind
I told you
I'd hold you
'Til the last days on earth
If you should fall into these opened arms
You would be blessed not just bemused
Wake up their mind love is alonely world
Where nothing on earth lies like a truth
Ties that are tested and tried
Like the crushing of the waves
We'll be lost in the tide
Talk away the pain for the very last time
Like an echo in a cave
Let it die in our mind
I told you
I'd hold you
'Til the last days on earth
13.Pullin' A Cloud
Time seems a crazy thing
Now that your heart can sing
Like a child
I know the stars tonight
Carry a guiding light
Still so proud
Pushin' or pullin' a cloud
Driving through driving rain
Just me and johnny jane
We're okay
We're just pullin' a cloud
There's a story in the lines of your face
Never now but not afraid
With the magic of your smile
You make me humble
Baby be wise
Stay by my side
Still so proud
Pushin' or pullin' a cloud
Pushin' or pullin' a cloud
Pushin' or pullin' a cloud
14.Out Of Control
Goodbye desperado
If they hadn't sucked out all the poison from your veins you'd
be dead by now
Too late frida kahlo
You could have the power of the phoenix and the flame if you
knew just how
Come the hour
Come the mantra
Repeat in defeat with the pots and the pans
Walk away
Walk on water
They're young then they're old then they don't give a damn
Yeah but you
You're out of control
Your babies are changing
You're out of control
Sleepless situation
Shaken by the clatter of the clinking on the bars of your
private jail
Twisted ultimatum
Searching for a lifeline or a band aid for your sins in the
morning mail
Tow the line
Floating islands
They're here and they're now but they're oceans away
Tie them down
Baby lions
You'll bleed and you'll plead and you'll beg them to stay
Yeah but you
You're out of control
Your babies are changing
You're out of control
Don't be afraid now
Your cover is blown
Don't shed a tear now
Your babies are grown
