1.Future Starts Slow
You can holler, you can wail
You can swing, you can flail
You can fuck like a broken sail
But I'll never give you up
If I ever give you up my heart will surely fail
And after all God can keep my soul
England have my bones
But don't ever give me up
I could never get back up when the future starts so slow
No longing for the moonlight
No longing for the sun
No longer will I curse the bad I've done
If there's a time when your feeling's gone, I wanna feel it
You can holler, you can wail
You can blow what's left of my right mind
You can swing, you can flail
You can blow what's left of my right mind (I don't mind)
There's a time for the second best
And there's a time when the feeling's gone
But it's hard to be hard I guess
When you're shaking like a dog
You can holler, you can wail
You can blow what's left of my right mind
You can swing, you can flail
You can blow what's left of my right mind
You can holler, you can wail
You can blow what's left of my right mind
You can swing, you can flail
You can blow what's left of my right mind (I don't mind)
You can blow what's left of my right mind
You can blow what's left of my right mind
You can holler, you can wail
You can blow what's left of my right mind
2.Satellite
Lost her behind the station
Lost her behind the moon
Operator, operator, dial her back
Operator put me through
Ah oh, satellite gave up the ghost too soon
Rising on the thermals
She's calling in and out the blue
Ah oh, carried her off on a silver spoon
I loved her too long, don't take her too
Oh how he crossed us on that fate
Your path in my own satellite
What a mess a little time makes to us
When time and place collide
Operator, operator, dial her back
Operator, operator, don't take her too.
I loved her too long, don't love her too
Operator, operator, dial her back
Operator, operator, don't take her too
I love her too long, don't love her too, don't love her too
3.Heart Is A Beating Drum
Looking in the mirror
Looking back
A look of wild living
Bound to crack
The heart is a beating drum
The heart is a beating drum
It takes more than you wanted before
To keep it on
Howling at the future
Won't you be fast and full
All the noise and hot crossed fangs
You, you got in you
Send your love in a rampage
Give her everything you've got
And when you come to hate her
Show her more than just a spark
Cause the heart is a beating drum
The heart is a beating drum
It takes more than you wanted before
To keep it on, it's a beating-
The heart is a beating drum
The heart is a beating drum
It takes more than you wanted before
To keep it on, it's a beating drum
And you feel like you been here
So many times before
It's not the door you're using
But the way you're walking through it
If you feel like you been here
So many times before
It's not the door you're using
But the way you're walking through it
Cause the heart is a beating drum
The heart is a beating drum
It takes more than you wanted before
To keep it on, it's a beating-
The heart is a beating drum
The heart is a beating drum
It takes more than you wanted before
To keep it on
It takes more than you wanted before
To keep it on
4.Nail In My Coffin
I am no better at this than you are
Unfinished business maybe, do love
I can't change myself into you dear
What you are to me is far too unclear
Quit being a nail in my coffin and I don't need another one
Quit being a nail in my coffin and lord knows I ain't ready yet
Quit being a nail in my coffin and I don't need another one
Quit being a line I'm crossing and I am never gonna get back
from
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
I am no better at this than you are
Loneliness never truly leaves me alone
I have made mistakes I can't take back home
I love you just not the way you want
Quit being a nail in my coffin and I don't need another one
Quit being a nail in my coffin and lord knows I ain't ready yet
Quit being a nail in my coffin and I don't need another one
Quit being a line I'm crossing and I am never gonna get back
from
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Quit being a nail in my coffin and I don't need another one
Quit being a nail in my coffin and lord knows I ain't ready yet
Quit being a nail in my coffin and I don't need another one
Quit being a line I'm crossing and I am never gonna get back
from
Quit being a nail in my coffin and I don't need another one
Quit being a nail in my coffin and lord knows I ain't ready yet
Quit being a nail in my coffin and I don't need another one
Quit being a line I'm crossing and I am never gonna get back
from
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
5.Wild Charms
To the doting boys by your side,
Riding roughshod on your starless nights.
To she who played concertos, foul and black,
Upon my heartstrings and never looked back.
What became of those wild charms?
The deep fry of the tide? The tug of the stars?
And how it stirs me, how it stirs me now
To think my fire burnt them out.
6.DNA
When it came to pass,
Loaded, pass me by
Fate, with a single blow,
Has clustered by me now
True, I had my chance,
True, true, true I had those wild charms for you
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
My fire burned them out
But we will not be moved by it
We will not be moved by it
Your mind would never ache,
When you were young and sound
The way your heart aches now,
You feel you sent them onto ground
Love, love, love til you got enough,
Dance, dance, dance, if you got no love around you
Love, love, love, til' you got enough,
Dance, dance, dance, til' there's no-one left to hound you
We will not be moved by it
We will not be moved by it
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Love, love, love til you got enough,
Dance, dance, dance, if you got no love around you
Love, love, love, til you got enough,
Dance, dance, dance, til' there's no-one left to hound you
We, we will not be moved by it
We, we will not be moved by it
We, we will not be moved by it
We, we will not be moved by it
7.Baby Says
Baby says she's dying to meet you
Take you off and make your blood hum
And tremble like the fairground lights
Baby says if ever you see skin as fair
Or eyes as deep and as black as mine
I know you're lying
Baby says a howl of romance I get
From all you sleeping dogs
You thugs of god
I'll get one yet
Baby says for all I've forsaken
Make something of all the noise
And the mess you're making
And all the time it's taken
Baby says there's death in these silver curls
I'll break open jails
Send you diving for pearls
Without a care in the world
Baby says she's dying to meet you
Take you off and make your blood hum
And tremble like the pinball lights
And baby says a howl of romance I get
From all you sleeping dogs
You thugs of god
I'll get one yet
8.The Last Goodbye
It's the last goodbye, I swear
I can't rely on a dime-a-day love
That don't go anywhere
I learn to cry for someone else
I can't get by on an odds and ends love
That don't ever match up
I heard all you said
And I took it to heart
I won't forget, I swear
I have no regrets
For the past is behind me
Tomorrow reminds me just where
Can't quite see the end
How can I rely on my heart if I break it
With my own two hands
I heard all you said
And I love you to death
I heard all you said
Don't say anything
It's the last goodbye, I swear
I can't survive on a half-hearted love
That will never be whole
9.Damned If She Do
She damned if she do
She damned if she don't
If history hang hang hangs her well
Her memory won't
There's been a prosection
Of sweet hearts passing through
Some of them left no trace at all
Some left her black and blue
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she on her last legs
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she on her last legs
She damned if she will
She damned if she won't
Some of them left in one piece
And some she damn near broke
And I am no stranger to the strange all his ways
What could be stranger than to be stuck outside your cage
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she on her last legs
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she on her deathbed
She come alive when she on her deathbed
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she on her last legs
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she on her deathbed
She come alive when she on her deathbed
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she dying
She come alive when she dying
10.You Don't Own The Road
You don't own the road boy
Better kick up a storm
You don't own the big city lights
Better cop out your own
You don't own the green pines,
The blue sky, or the smoke
You don't own the dust in your
Big brown eyes when you keep them closed
Yeah, steal them back for me love
Oh yeah, steal them back for me love, oh yeah
You don't own the road boy
And neither do I
You don't own the big city lights
That make my eyes cry
You don't own the green pines
So be careful where you lean
And when you're lost under the blue sky
Look down and you'll find me
Yeah, steal it back for me love, back for me love
Oh yeah steal it back for me love, oh yeah
Come on over
If that's the way you feel
When you're lonesome steal it
Back when you're lonely
Back when you're lonely
Back when you're lonely, back
You don't own the sadness son
See the tide just comes in
Guilt is played on the violin
By those who never cared to sing
Yeah, steal it back for me love
Oh yeah, steal it back for me love, back for me love
Oh yeah, steal it back for me love, back for me love
Oh yeah, steal it back for me love, back for me love
Back for me love, back for me love
11.Pots And Pans
I can't find enough pots and pans
Let alone knives in my kitchen
To keep you cooking
I can't find enough love in my heart
Let alone in my bones
To keep you standing
Ain't enough salt in the ocean
That cares enough to keep you floating
There ain't a drop left in my tank
To move move move your dead weight
I ain't joking
You're so good
I ain't joking when I said
You're so good
I can't find enough pots and pans
Let alone knives in my kitchen
To keep you cooking
To keep you cooking
I can't find enough love in my heart
Let alone in my bones
To keep you standing
These are the days we will never forget
When the dawn dawns on you
These are the days we will never forget
When the dawn dawns on you
These are the days we will never forget
When the dawn dawns on you
These are the days we will never forget
When the dawn dawns on you
These are the days we will never forget
When the dawn dawns on you
These are the days we will never forget
When the dawn dawns on you
These are the days we will never forget
When the dawn dawns on you
These are the days we will never forget
When the dawn dawns on you
These are the days we will never forget
When the dawn dawns on you
