Tori Amos Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.China

All the way to New York
I can feel the distance getting close
You're right next to me
But I need an airplane
I can feel the distance as you breathe

Sometimes I think you want me to touch you
How can I
When you build the great wall around you
In your eyes
I saw a future together
You just look away in the distance

China
Decorates our table
Funny how the cracks don't seem to show
Pour the wine dear
Say we'll take a holiday
But we never can agree on
Where to go

China
All the way to New York
Maybe you got lost in Mexico
You're right next to me
I think that you can hear me
Funny how the distance learn to grow

I can feel the distance
I can feel the distance
I can feel the distance getting close...


2.Past The Mission

I don't believe I went too far I said
I was willing she said she knew what
my books did not I thought seh knew what's up

Past the mission behind the prison tower past
the mission I once knew a hot girl past the mission
they're closing every hour past the mission
I smell the roses

She said they all think they know him well
she knew him better everyone wanted something
from him I did too but
I shut my mouth he just gave me a smile

Hey they found a body not sure it was his
but they're using his name and
she gave him shelter and somewhere
I know she knows something only she knows


3.Flying Dutchman

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

Hey kid,
I got a ride for you
They say your brain is a comic-book-tattoo
And you'll never be anything

What will you do with your life,
of that's all you hear from noon till night

Take a trip on a rocket-ship baby
where the sea is the sky
I know the guy who runs the place
and he's out of sight

Flying Dutchman, are you out there
Flying Dutchman, are you out there
Flying Dutchman, are you out there

Straight suits, they don't understand
she tried, that one with the alligator boots
But the other side drew her in

Heart falling fast when she left
Even the milky way was dressed in black

Take a trip on a rocket-ship baby
where the sea is the sky
I know the guy who runs the place
and he's out of sight

Flying Dutchman, are you out there
Flying Dutchman, are you out there
Flying Dutchman

'Cause they can't see what you're born to be
they can't see me

They can't see what they can't believe
They can't see what you see

Keep the boy spinning in their own little world
Time up and so we won't say a word
They keep the boy spinning in their own little world
So afraid he'll be what they never were

Take a trip on a rocket-ship baby
where the sea is the sky
I know the guy who runs the place
and he's out of sight

Flying Dutchman, are you out there
Flying Dutchman, are you out there
Flying Dutchman

'Cause they can't see
'Cause they can't see
'Cause they can't see
Are you still out there

They can't feel me They can't see what I found out They can't
see, they can't see.. you know, you know, you're jumping from a
high jump
Are you still out there They can't see and I just move this
mountain Hide your love, hide your love. So many know you know,
but then, oh they can't see...


4.Take To The Sky

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

This house is like Russia
with eyes cold and grey
You've got me moving in a circle
I dyed my hair red today
I just want a little passion
to hold me in the dark
I know I've got some magic
buried deep in my heart yeah

But my priest says,
you ain't savin' no souls
And my father says,
you ain't makin' any money
My doctor says,
you just took it to the limit
And here I stand...
with this sword in my hand

You can say it one more time
what you don't like
Let me hear it one more time
Then...
have a seat while I
take to the sky

My heart is like the ocean
It gets in the way
So close to touching freedom
Then I hear the guards call my name

But my priest says,
you ain't savin' no souls
And my father says,
you ain't makin' any money
My doctor says,
you just took it to the limit
And here I stand...
with this sword in my hand

You can say it one more time
what you don't like
Let me hear it one more time
Then...
have a seat while I
take to the sky

If you don't like me just a little
why do you hang around
There she goes again wearing those purple panties..


5.A Case Of You

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

Just before our love got lost you said,
'I am as constant as the northern star.'
and I said, 'Constantly in the darkness
where's that at?
If you want me I'll be in the bar.'
On the back of a cotton coaster
in the blue T.V. screen light
I drew a map of Canada
Oh Canada
with your face sketched on it twice.

In my blood like holy wine
you taste so bitter and so sweet
well, I could drink a case of you, darling
and I would still be on my feet
I would still be on my feet.

Oh I am a lonely painter
I live in a box of paints
I'm frightened by the devil
And I'm drawn to those ones that ain't afraid.
I remember that time you told me
'Love is touching souls'
Surely you touched mine
'Cause part of you pours out of me
In these lines from time to time.

My blood
my holy wine
tastes so bitter and so sweet
Well I could drink a case of you, darling
and I would still be on my feet
I would still be on my feet

I met a woman
She had a mouth like yours
She knew your devils and your deeds
and she said, 'Go to him, stay with him
but be prepared to bleed'

My blood
my holy wine
tastes so bitter and so sweet
Well I could drink a case of you, darling
and I would still be on my feet
I would still be on my feet


6.Daisy Dead Petals

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

daisy dead petals
that is her name
she's in her phone booth phase, so
underneath the shade of a peppermint tray,
she can turn it out with a heal on she just rides into town
knowing what they'll say, knowing they're around the corner.
Got a crack in, got a crack in some strange places.

daisy dead petals, that is her name.
so maybe she tastes like a hamburger maid, well
these dead petals, honey, brought me here.
she said, 'these dead petals, honey, brought me here.'

dancing on a dime, hearing mother cry,
maybe she's around the corner.

got a crack in, got a crack in some strange places.
on my back with, on my back with some dirty dishes.

falling down, falling down, all over the river.
falling down, falling down, falling down.

wish what i'm feeling could go on like this forever.
falling down falling down falling down.

and since we're down might as well stay,
might as well fry some eggs
and wave to the shade of the peppermint tray.
she's a new friend not a skeleton to ride into town.
knowing what they'll say, knowing she tastes like a hamburger
maid, but
'these dead petals, honey, brought me here.'
she said, 'these dead petals, honey, brought me here.'


7.Sister Janet

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

Master Shamen I have come
with my dolly from the shadow side
with a demon and an Englishman
I'm my mother
I'm my son
nobody else is slipping the blade in easy
nobody else is slipping the blade in the marmalade

All the angels all the wizards black and white
are lighting candles in our hands
can you feel them touching hands before our eyes
and I can even see sweet Marianne

Sister Janet you have come
from the woman clothed with the sun
your veil is quietly becoming none
call the Wanderer he has gone
and all those up there are making it look so easy
with your perfect wings
a wing can cover all sorts of things


8.Upside Down

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

God I love to turn my little blue world upside down
God I love to turn my little blue world upside down
Inside my head the noise
Chatter, chatter, chatter, chatter, chatter
You see I'm afraid I'll always be
Still coming out of my mother upside down

Don't you love to turn this little blue girl upside down ?
Oh I know you love to turn this little blue girl baby upside
down
But my heart it says
You been shatter, shatter, shatter, shatter, shattered
And I know you're still a boy
Still coming out of your mother

But when you gonna stand on your own ?
I say the world is sick
You say 'Tell me what that makes us darlin''
You see, you always find my faults
Faster than you find your own
You say the world is getting rid of her demons
I say 'Baby what have you been smoking ?'

Well I dreamed, I dreamed...
I dreamed I loved a black boy
My daddy would scream
Oh yeah

Don't you love to turn this little blue girl upside down ?
Any kind of touch I think is better than none even upside down
But you see I'm tangled up
Got a kitten, kitten, kitten, kitten in my hair
Cincinnati, I like the word
It's the only thing we can seem to turn upside down

Well I found (found) the secret (secret) to life
I found (found) the secret to life (secret of life)
I'm okay when everything is not okay
I said I found (found) the secret (secret) to life
I found (found) the secret to life (secret of life)
I'm okay when everything is not okay
Is not okay

Oh, we turn and we turn our little blue world upside down
I said, don't we love to turn our little blue world baby upside
down ?
Inside my head a voice
Chatter, chatter, chatter, chatter, chatter
And it says 'Girl you're all the same
Still coming out of your mothers
Still coming out of your mothers upside down'


9.Here,In My Head

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

In my head I found you there
And running around and following me
But you don't, oh, dare, now.
But I find that I have, now, more
Then I ever wanted too

So maybe Thomas Jefferson wasn't born
In your backyard like you have said and
Maybe I'm just the horizon you run to when she has left you
there, you, are here in my head and
Running around and calling me
come back
I'll show you the roses and brush off the snow and
Open their petals again and again and you know that
Apple green ice cream can melt in your hands I can't so...

I, I held your hand at the fair and
Even forgot what time it was
And even Thomas Jefferson wasn't born
In your backyard like you have said and
Maybe I'm just the horizon you run to
When she has left you and me here alone on the floor,
You're counting my feathers as the bells toll
You see the bow and the belt and the girl from the south all
Fav'rite of mine you know them all well
And spring brings fresh little puddles that makes it all clear
makes it all...
Hey, do you know, hey, do you know, what this is doing to me?
Here in my head.


10.Black Swan

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

Ride on, Ride on
Friends of the black swan
Ride on, Ride on
Do you know where she's gone?
Gumdrops and Saturdays, did Eric call by the way?
He knew, he knew, and he knew where the pillow goes.

Ride on, Ride on, friends of the black swan
Ride on, Ride on you know where she's gone
Buttercups and fishing flies the biggest thickest ever sky.
I know they know something
I know, ah!

Ride on, Ride on, friends of the black swan.
Ride on, Ride on you know where she's gone?

Little green men do O.K.
It's the fairy's revenge they say,
And gumdrops and Saturdays, did Eric call by the way?

Mmm, la la, ride on, ride on, ride on...


11.Butterfly

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

Stinky soul get a little lost in my own
Hey General, need a little love in that hole of yours
So one ways now and Saturdays now and our kittens
all wrapped in cement
From cradle to gumdrops got me running girl as fast as I can
And is it right,
Butterfly,
they like you better framed and dried?

Daddy, dear, if I can kill one man why not two?
Well, nurses smile when you've got iron veins you can't stain
their pretty shoes.
And pompoms and cherry blondes
And the kittens still wrapped in cement
From God's saviours to gumdrops
got me running girl as fast as I can
And is it right,
Butterly,
they like you better framed and dried?

Got a pretty pretty garden; pretty garden, yes.


12.Ode To The Banana King

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

Turning back ten thousand years it's all a blur where the taxi's
go
Monster man a willing friend Lucy serves the melon cold
Violent and delicious souls four red trucks dressed illegally
Mother knows how the bugle blows gonna get caught in her rug
babe

This is not a conclusion
No revolution
Just a little confusion
On where your head has been

Boats made out of paper float dreams made up for the banana king
Darling crumbs you have lapped freely of devious we all have
been

Violent and delicious souls

This is not a conclusion
No revolution
Just a little confusion
On where your head has been


13.Baltimore

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

It's so nice to live here,
I'm glad this is my home
I've got a homestead on Baltimore Street
it's someplace to call my own.

It's all kinds of people
Familiar places, smiling faces
I'm proud to say I'm a Baltimorian.
But the 'Birds' are the best,
The best of Baltimore.

We like it here in Baltimore
There's so much love in Baltimore
Working hand in hand
To make this place a better land in Baltimore.
Love is what you'll find so stop and take the time.
I've got Oriole Baseball on my mind.

We like it here in Baltimore.
There's so much love in Baltimore.
Working hand in hand
to make this place a better land in Baltimore.
Love is what you'll find so stop and take the time
To enjoy the brotherhood of Baltimore.

The sun sets across the bay
I'm glad I spend my day
in a working american city
with all the people who make it that way.
It's time to jump in a taxi
for Thirty-third Street
knowing I'll be watching those 'Birds' go,
watching Weaver's Show.

We like it here in Baltimore
There's so much love in Baltimore.
Working hand in hand
to make this place a better land in Baltimore.
Love is what you'll find so stop and take the time.
I've got Oriole Baseball on my mind.

On my mind in Baltimore.


14.Alamo

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

Alamo
heard all about your fandango
begged on my knees on your back door
only to wake you to blues on the way
blues on the way
blues on the way

embarcadero, figures you'll see me as older
twenty-three hours til the border
Don't think I'll be going as fast as I came.
fast as I came
fast as I came

the tears on my pillow, of course they're not mine
alter that altar
make it a play
somebody invent the telephone line
I'll take my chances

Alamo
wish I could do what God does
heard that the stars were in order
got yourself dealt a hand
with two queen of spades
and blues on the way
blues on the way

tears on my pillow
of course they're not mine
alter that altar
make it a play
somebody just
somebody invent the telephone line
I'll take my chances


15.Hungarian Wedding Song

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

when you said you'd marry me
I thought you meant you'd wanted too
then I thought you'd like to
maybe on a tuesday

all the dead are coming
I heard they'll be dressing
something kind of maggoty
rolling with froppity


16.Happy Worker

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

Coughing from the smoke of a black roof chimney
Marching to the beat of a hot roof over me
Hey, ho, here we go, we're off to work again
Bells are ringing, we are singing,
Joyous in our industry

I love my job
he loves his job
pull that lever
start the engine
pump the water
build the pressure
push the piston
press the button

pump the water
build the pressure
push the piston
press the button

It's the perfect job

Happy workers
Happy workers
Happy workers


17.Humpty Dumpty

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall
Humpty dumpty had a great big fall
All the kings horses and all the kings men
Couldn't put Humpty together again

Humpty dumpty and Betty Louise
She said 'Humpty baby, take me
Oooh, yeah, take me to the river
Cause I like the way it runs, yeah,
Take me to the river
You know I like the way it runs, yeah'

He said, 'Everything's going my way'
he said, 'Maybe it's my la-lucky day'
And he said, 'anything you want
I can give'
She said, 'I wanna take your picture
Just for me'
He said, 'Anything'
She said, 'Up there, baby

Get on the wall babe'

Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall
And looked at her as he was falling
All the kings horses and all the kings men
Couldn't put Humpty together again

Hey, Betty Louise
Hey, Betty Louise
She said, 'I like custard in the summer, honey
Oh yeah, what it takes to be queen
Hey, what it takes to be queen
What it takes to be...oh


18.Thoughts

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

thoughts right now
i picked up a magazine
ohh here we go
fifteen hundred years,
fifteen hundred years right here
burning witches, burning books
burning babies and their looks

burning everything that's sacred in my jeans

thoughts right now
she's been everybody else's girl
thoughts right now

thoughts right now
right now
am i here
am i here
never here...
i'm never here
i'm never here
i'm never here
never a bird
or a flower in the tree
or the pain of the respect thereof
yes, indeed!

thoughts right now
what will become of me?
become of her?
become of we, baby?
yeah...


19.Frog On My Toe

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

Poppa I know
There's a Frog on my toe
Maybe I'll call him Jethro
Maybe I'll grow up to be
As wise and as good as he
And maybe I'll come back after you're long gone

Poppa I'm sure
The worms have eaten you now
And Jethro's been on some Frenchy's Plate long ago
Now I'm pretty sure that I listen to every word
cause you're still here telling me still

'Slap them boys if they're naughty
Make them crawl, make you haughty'

Make you strong, little girl
You paint them toes a reddish colour
And you know one day
You're gonna be bigger than a flea
You're gonna be bigger than that old poison ivy tree

Now I'm pretty sure
That I think you'd come and visit
And talk sometimes kind of like Gidget
A funny little chance like an Indian Brave
He said 'We all grew fat when the white man came'
But one day girl you're gonna learn to make them crawl

Make them grow tall
But have the grace
To be a lady with disgrace
And you fry them potatoes
And you make them with laddies hands
I know you're my pappy's baby.


20.Graveyard

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

Here, I said
don't even let this go
and it's
hey to that old man.
I'm coming in the graveyard
with my little tune,
it's June
I said she's gone but I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm coming in the graveyard
to sing you to sleep now


21.Home On The Range

Lyrics:Brewster Higley
Music:Dan Kelley

Oh give me a home
Where the buffalo roam
Where the deer and the antelope play
Where seldom is heard
A discouraging word
And the skies are not cloudy all day

Home on the range
Where the deer and the antelope play
Where seldom is heard
A discouraging word
And skies are not cloudy all day

Well Jackson made deals
A thief down to his heels
Had a long trail of tears
the Smokies could hide
a Cherokee bride
Her brave was shot yesterday

Home on the range
Where the deer and the antelope play
Where seldom is heard
A discouraging word
And skies are not cloudy all day

Mmm, we know it's not Caroline
Your home is your home
The range may be fine
For some but not in my eyes

Home on the range
the Smokies always hide
Cherokee bride
but in their eyes we know it's not Caroline

Yes, yes, America.
Hey, ah, America.
who discovered your ass?

The white man came
'This land is MY Land
this is your land' they sang.

Home on the range
Where the deer and the antelope play
Where seldom is heard
A discouraging word
And the skies are not cloudy all day


22.Samurai

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

'you do your thing'

My Samurai said going to the sanctuary
I knew about my love too
my Samurai done making a liar of me when
to be happy
to be you
he says

My Samurai take me down to the sanctuary
and I'm free
gonna be
you know me
you know me
I said I'm gonna be
gonna be
you know me

My Samurai taking my face
and she's sticking it on a daisy
and you

'I think I cut that one too. I get the Samurai book out and just
read words'


23.Sister Named Desire

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

Got a sister named Desire
They dont let you like those little boys
by their house
On the back yard swing
I know of it cause
I thought we told some little sweet stories
In the parking lot

They say that girl lost her sway
The say that girl lost her sway that day
Mm mm mm mm mm, mm mm

God I'd like to drag him for a long way 'cause maybe I
Then I'd just cry a little tear near him
To that sleepy safe place
And I'm gonna take him by myself if I'v got to go
Don't let you know, let you know where she goes to
with those, me as I interfere
That girl lost her sway
They say that girl lost her sway that day

Mm, mm, mm, mm
Teach me about them old worlds big brother
and in an elevator
where somebody can get out
With the
sound
They say that girl lost her sway
Just watch it
Just watch it slip through my hands, Boy
Watch it go
Oh, what you know, ooh

I guess
I see
Just see
'Cause she still can sway
Na na na na na na
Na na na


24.Song For Eric

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

I wait all day for my sailor and sometimes he comes

See you over hill and dale
Riding on the wind I see
You know me, you know me like the nightingale
'Oh fair maiden I see you standing there'
Will you hold me for just a fair time
The tune is playing in the fair night
I see you in my dreams
Fair boy your eyes haunt me


25.The Pool

one with her hands
open
'Don't Be afraid' she said
'No one will know it -
just you and me'
And when it's over
I'll go back

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

Toodles Mr. Jim
you cherry picker
toodles I say, so long
hear that your grave's a little warm you stickler
sing 'em all your happy song

by your grave.

I say toodles Mr. Jim
you cherry picker
taught me so well
how to spell those red in
and
and
hey
you know she deserved that nose
splattered and swattered blood in my hands
not a nice day for your little girl
but you came to my aid instead.

Now, now it's toodles Mr. Jim
you cherry picker
build that ladder well
teach me just where those boys can climb
when they've got a spell.

Toodles Mr. Jim
you are my sweet favourite neighbor of them all
of them
girls go to their parties
I don't care
cause I'm with you
still

That was Toodles Mr. Jim.
Mr. Jim died
two weeks ago
and he taught me how to pick cherries
and I punched his daughter in the nose
because she was mean
Mr. Jim was good.


27.Walking With You

Lyrics:Tori Amos
Music:Tori Amos

Walking with you
Hand in palm, palm in hand
It's great to be your special friend
I wonder if you'll ever land
Next to my heart where you belong
Walking along
Singing a song
Walking with you

Walking with you
Heart in steps, Step on beach
Beach in sun, have some fun
It's great to be your special friend
I wonder if you'll ever hand
Over your heart to me
Walking along
Smiling our song
Walking with you

I know a place, where you can stay
Footsteps to a door open all day
Walking with you walking with you
Walking....

Walking with you
Life in eyes, light in your eye-eyes
I know you love me too.
Walking with you...
Walking with you...
Walking with you...


28.Amazing Grace

Lyrics:John Newton
Music:John Newton

Amazing grace! how sweet the sound.
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found.
Was blind but now I see.

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear.
And grace my fears relieved:
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!

Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come;
'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promised good to me.
His word my hope secures;
He will my sheild and portion be
As long as life endures.

Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess within the veil
A life of joy and peace.

When I've been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
I've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when I first begun.


29.London Girls

Some people sing about Deutsch(e) girls
and girls from California
they might be alright for a night alright
but don't trust them I warn ya
I've been to the east and I've been out west
and I've been the world around
but I ain't seen no one anywhere near
a girl from London town

Give me a London Girl every time
I've got to find one
I've made up my mind
give me a London Girl every time
I want a London Girl

Marry a girl from London town
you know that you can trust her
she'll darn your socks
and wash your everytime your trousers won't bust 'em (?) yes

and they've got good looks
and they won't lead you down
said I gotta find a London Girl
if I ever get to have a chance

Oh give me a London Girl every time
I've got to find one
I've made up my mind
give me a London Girl every time
I want a London Girl

London Girls are the best in the world
there ain't no doubt about it
If you can't find a girl from La-London town
you're better off doin' without it
they don't create (?) when you come home late
and you're crawlin' up the passage floor
and you're crawlin' up the passage floor
they won't mock about you
when you're going out with
the geezer from the house next door

Oh give me a London Girl every time
I've got to find one
I've made up my mind
I said honey give me a London Girl babe
every little day
your legs turn to jelly
and I got a little smelly
but I know it's just what I want

cause I need a London Girl, oh, every time
they've always got a pound
to buy their round
when it's their turn at the bar

33.Smells Like Teen Spirit

Load up on guns
bring your friends
it's fun to lose and to pretend
she's overbored and self-assured
oh no, I know a dirty word
hello, hello, hello, hello
hello hello
I'm worst at what I do best
and for this gift I feel blessed
our little group has always been
and always will be until the end
hello, hello, hello, hello
hello hello
with the lights out it's less dangerous
here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
here we are now, entertain us
yes
hello
hello, hello
with the lights out it's less dangerous
here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
here we are now, entertain us
yes, a mulatto
an albino
a mosquitto
my libido
a denial
a denial
a denial
a denial
yes
a denial


34.That's What I Like Mick(The Sandwich Song)

Cheese and onion sandwiches and Derby chinaware
fiddles and jigs and boogie my dog, Auntie Vee having a swear
taking my dad for a pint or two, a sunday morning stroll
licorice pipes and baggy suits, Glen Hoddle scoring a goal
catching a pike and riding my bike, old wooden wheels and a bowl
of eels

yes, that's what I like boy
that's what I like

pie and mash and liquor, walking about in the rain
William books and comical looks, pianos trams and trains
coals and cockles and thunder storms, a place on the [wallace
and ow](?)
grandfather clocks and coke and brandy
fountain pens and Beano and Dandy

that's what I like
I said, that's what I like

little pubs out in the country, mother pearl and Barnet Faire
the sound of the banjo barbershop singing and having a kip in
the chair
burning toast a beer from the wood and old terry thomas' teeth
Jerry and Chet and Cannon & Ball, a banjo picking bill keith
and old bungalows wood burning stoves
and Shirley MacLaine and Petticoat Lane

that's what I like,
said that's what I like
yes, boy
yes that's just a...

bubble and squeak and jumble sales, Little Richard and Jerry Lee
bonfire night and Southend nights, paddle in the sea
polished brass and copper, salvation army bands
violins and old coach inns, and colored elastic bands
tea in the morning and winter beginning
fishing rods and frogs and spurs and winning years

that's what I like
hey, that's what I like

decorations off in the bases, going down hopping in Kent
a new pair of braces little kids faces sleeping under the tin
and wagons chickens and picking blackberries and swallows and
sledges
and Devon and jerries and haddock and trotters horses and
knickers
and cider and celery and banjoes and kippers
yeah, that's I like boy
that's what I like


35.This Old Man

This old man
he played one
he played knick knack on my thumb
with a knick knack paddywhack
give your dog a bone
This old man came rolling home.

This old man
he played two
he played knick knack on my shoe
with a knick knack paddywhack
give your dog a bone.
this old man came rolling home.

This old man
he play ten
he played knick knack on my shin
on my shin.


36.War

And he knows
a light won't stay lit
The lion's flown the nest
For his love is gone that
he gave her
There's always one droplet
But you forget I'm not your daughter
Nor will I wear your mother's dress
So it is
Take a fuel gun
Take a fuel gun
Thought a war would be much more fun
Than this numbness


37.What If God Was One of Us

If God had a name what would it be?
And would you call it to his face?
If you were faced with him in all his glory
What would you ask if you had just one question?

*And yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah

What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home

If God had a face what would it look like?
And would you want to see
If seeing meant that you would have to believe in things
like heaven and in Jesus and the saints, and all the prophets
(*)

Trying to make his way home
Back up to heaven all alone
Nobody calling on the phone
Except for the Pope maybe in Rome(*)

Just trying to make his way home
Like a holy rolling stone
Back up to heaven all alone
Just trying to make his way home
Nobody calling on the phone
Except for the Pope maybe in Rome
