Tales of the Forgotten Melodies

Wax Tailor Tales of the Forgotten Melodies Lyrics
1.Our Dance

Lyricist:Jean Christophe Micha La Saout, Charlotte Savary

It's a story but that's why I'm here
To tell you story, so picture the scene
Let's begin

The turn of the day
When all music fools come out to play
Until the drunk turn of night

So many stories to hear
So many chicks to greet
And beautiful faces unseen

So many stories to hear
So many chicks to greet
And beautiful faces unseen

What they were building? No one could say

At the turn of the night
We all wonder and chuckle in the lights
Until every floor is soaked through

Such crazy behaviors
Such noise in our ears
Let's all change gears

Such crazy behaviors
Such noise in our ears
Let's all change gears

If we, you, really need to express something
But I don't know what it is I want to express
Or how to express it?

Before this night ends
I will mingle and find you
Until your hand is in my hand

So much sweat and laughter
So much for electric beats
And spark when you come so sweet

So much sweat and laughter
So much for electric beats
And spark when you come so sweet

Thank you for a lovely invitation
Good night it's been charming

At the turn of the day
When words become syllables
Will you remember our dance?

I ask myself that question all the time

At the turn of the day
When words become syllables
Will you remember our dance?

Ah, you remember that?
Something I should never forget


2.How I Feel

Lyricist:Jean Christophe Micha La Saout

On the stage please
They're all waiting for you

Birds flying high, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze drifting on by, you know how I feel
It's a new dawn, it's a new day

It's a new life for me
Yeah, it's a new dawn, it's a new day
It's a new life for me
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Birds flying high, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze drifting on by, you know how I feel
It's a new dawn, it's a new day

It's a new life for me
Yeah, it's a new dawn, it's a new day
It's a new life for me
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Birds flying high, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze drifting on by, you know how I feel
It's a new dawn, it's a new day

It's a new life for me
Yeah, it's a new dawn, it's a new day
It's a new life for me
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Birds flying high, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze drifting on by, you know how I feel
It's a new dawn, it's a new day

It's a new life for me
Yeah, it's a new dawn, it's a new day
It's a new life for me
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh


3.Hypnosis Theme

Lyricist:Jean Christophe Micha La Saout

Now come backward from ten
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four
What comes after four? Two

Keep concentrating, just relax
Just concentrate and make your mind a blank
Okay relax, please take this seriously
Relax and have a good time
Tell me everything you remember

You're trying to hypnotize me, yes, it's true
Please breathe deeply, deeply, very deeply
And just concentrate
Concentrate, concentrate, concentrate

At the count of three
You will awaken and remember nothing
You will have no memories of this trance feelings
You will not be upset by them

One, you are coming out
Two, you are nearly conscious
Three, there's nothing unusual in you
Childhood

Let's examine your present life
Let us examine every detail
Every detail, every detail
Now tell me what you feel


4.Behind the Curtain (Opening)

Tailor...Tailor!
Just tell me what happened to him
Is he hurt, is he alive?
W-where is he?

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen
Do you recognise my voice?
This is your story-teller
I'm happy to be here with you, and I'd like you to join me
For the first time
F-for more than a year, ominous rumours have been privately
circulating
I realise what I'm about to say may come as a great shock.
However, I'm counting on you to respond appropriately
Using great presence of mind, we rush to our closest laboratory
Our dream has been led by cloning: we would re-duplicate the
entire
Music...music
Let me know when you're ready
That's a good start


5.Que sera

A record of the delightful piece they're going to play this
evening
Ladies and gentlemen
Your attention please!
And now the moment we've been waiting for is here
I have something to tell you
Que sera, sera
Que sera, sera
Que sera, sera
Que sera, sera
Whatever will be
The future's not our
I believe in the future
I don't believe in miracles
Can it be true: it must be true! No doubt!
Life is going on as normally as ever
But suddenly something seems to have happened
Everybody seems to be staring in one direction
People seem to be frightened, even terrified
I want everybody to understand this
I don't understand
I don't understand
There are a lot of things we don't understand, either
We need answers from you: what did you expect to find?
What's going to be our future?
It's your responsibility to do something about it
Well, I have the key in my hands: all I have to find is the lock
Now listen to me, all of you!
Que sera, sera
Que sera, sera
Que sera, sera
Que sera, sera
Whatever will be
Oh you're divine!


6.Ungodly Fruit

We're just like other people
We love to sing
We love to dance
We admire beautiful women
We're human
And sometimes very human
[sample: To Be or Not to Be (dir. Ernst Lubitsch, 1942); voice:
Stanley Ridges as Professor Alexander Siletsky]

Perhaps those who may be among us for the first time
May be wondering what is going to happen now
It is of course necessary for the minds and the souls of us all


7.Between Fellows

We warn you that I say what I think
I'm a complete individual
I'm against communism, capitalism
Fascism and nazism
Against everything and everybody
I hate my fellow man and he hates me
I often wonder what it would be like
To be happy twenty-four hours a day
[sample: That Uncertain Feeling (dir. Ernst Lubitsch, 1941);
voice: Burgess Meredith as Alexander Sebastian)

9.Where My Heart's At


10.Birth of a Struggle

What would you give for an escape
For freedom
For complete liberty

This is a small group of people
Who haved shared a vision in common.
[sample: Close Encounters of the Third Kind (dir. Steven
Spielberg, 1977); voice: Bob Balaban as David Laughlin]

You above everyone else should understand
We can not be free until we have power
How else can we achieve it
[sample: Conquest of the Planet of the Apes (dir. J. Lee
Thompson, 1972); voice: Roddy McDowell as Caesar]


11.Am I Free

Raise your right hand
Do you swear to tell the truth
The whole truth
Nothing but truth

I will answer any questions concerning myself
But it's against my conscience
To give names or to inform about other people

Today it's all monopoly
In a free world they violate the natural rights of every citizen
Am I free to travel
Of course you're free to travel
Only with a passport
Only with a passport
Only with a passport
And free speech, does that exist


12.Ringing Score

Hello, hello, hello...


13.I Don't Know

I'm on the phone...
Hello?
Hello?!
Arrivederci!
[samples include excerpts from:Casino (dir. Martin Scorsese,
1995); Close Encounters of the Third Kind (dir. Steven
Spielberg, 1977)]

You know, sometimes we're not prepared for adversity
When it happens sometimes we're caught short
We don't know exactly how to handle it
Sometimes we don't know
[sample: Julian ?Cannonball? Alderley intro to the live version
of ?Mercy, Mercy, Mercy?, album: Cannonball Adderley Quintet,
Mercy, Mercy, Mercy! - Live at ?The Club?, 1966 (aaah,
classic!)]

This time I'd like to ask you a few questions
That's very important
Do you know who I am
I-I don't know, I don't know
Is it true
I don't know, I-I don't know, I don't know
Are you being coy
Well, I don't know
Don't get me mad
We only wanna ask you a couple of questions
Do you know him
I really don't know
Who else was with you
I-I don't know
What is that mean
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
I really don't know
Do you think I have something to do with this
Don't be afraid
Do you understand
I'm trying to help, that's all
but you must cooperate
One, two...

Alright, let's start all over again
Do you have anything to say
I don't know, I-I don't know, I don't know
I need some information
I want you to tell me the truth
I want to just be able to trust you
You know, it's about trust
Do you understand
Do you understand
I don't know
Sometimes I don't know all the answers
Perhaps this photograph will refresh your memory
Who else was with you, who else was with you
Do you think I have something to do with this
Don't be afraid
Do you understand
I'm trying to help, that's all
But you must cooperate

I asked you a question
I heard your question
Can you help me
What's your opinion
What do we do now
Do you realize the danger that you and your friend have risked
I'm trying to understand what is happening to you
Don't you remember
I know, I know
One, two, three, four

Do you think I have something to do with this
Look in my eyes, look-look in my eyes
You know me, you know me
Please, please, help me, help me, help me
What do you want
I need some information
You don't understand

I absolutely refuse


14.Stay Tuned

Today's story is about a
Kid with a great future
But he had something more important
He had heart
And now, ladies and gentlemen...
The makers of Human Emotions
We interrupt this program
To bring you a special news bulletin

Yes!....that tune!

The truth, you can't handle the truth
it parades right in front of you
tell me what you gonna do
Be on top of your game so what i call this
A ball's quick to smash the pressure on the heartless

So everyday i gotta walk the line
You gotta tell me how you're feeling and rhyme
You gotta hear it how i'm feeling and rhyme

you can't handle the truth
it parades right in front of you
tell me what you gonna do
Be on top of your game so what i call this
A ball's quick to smash the pressure on the heartless

So everyday i gotta walk the line
You gotta tell me how you're feeling and rhyme [and
say]
You gotta hear it how i'm feeling and rhyme

Looking at my Casio
About that time
to take some military action
yo i gots to shine
and the only way to do it
is to stay fluid with the band???
so am a stay on the grind
plus walk a thin live
i gots to get mine
with the restraint of doin' drums
i'm a motivate
like a guy totting a blind

do this shit or
i'm searching and tryin to find
a reason to stay alive
crossfading to survive

By coming obstacles
gotta a pack of the piece of the pie
Wild wild west
I gotta reach it for the sky
When i rock into the top
of the mountain Divines
what they call me
so follow me
all in together now

Defy from rest of the
testing my limits
word up and invest ???
life sentence for this
and i'm meant for this shit
like Van Horse??? from Wax Taylor
we bringin' it from the soul
like our first name was DeLa


To all my people
this is it
hey kid, walk straight master you high


to this catacomb of belevo
let me take you back
using my ???atlantic cause???

I setup rhymes for a decoy
I'm the other brother
watch the MCs we destroy
in this binary? operation
what's you facin'?
my man Wax Taylor
and the big Oh force creator

Galaxy of Planecies??? for the world to see
it's beautiful thing but deadly like a sword swing
animation frequencies run faster than Mercury
with a telegram
to let you know you not the man
Examine the hologram
we'll see you soon
switch to tune as we put the self control to sonic
boom
it's so dramatic
your heart will scribble??? in salvation to us

it's supernatural when we discuss


15.Walk the Line

Today's story is about a kid with a great future...
But he had something more important.
He had...heart!

'And now ladies and gentlemen,

The truth, you can't handle the truth

16.A Woman's Voice

We have some very interesting guest for us this evening...
Hey, ok, now a song for you...

Uuuh...

It was a woman's voice
And it was such an anguished and heart-wrenching sound
I was totally arrested by its sadness
I closed my eyes for a few minutes
And that's when the dream must have come
[sample: Another Woman (dir. Woody Allen, 1988); voice: Gene
Rowlands as Marion Post]

Then the disk on the stereo twanged off and out
And in the short silence before the next one came on
She suddenly came with a burst of singing
[sample: A Clockwork Orange (dir. Stanley Kubrick, 1971); voice:
Malcolm McDowell as Alex DeLarge)

Uuuh...

???

We must go, go at once before henri catch you here
??? I thought you wanted to make the old boy jealous
Not anymore, he's threaten to kill you on sight
??? you don't think he would go that far, do you
Of course he will!
Oh, will you go before it's too late, before he shoots you
today...


17.Don't You Remember

Don't you remember what happened
They're making me ill with their ugly words in my ugly dreams
Tell her to stop it, to go away and leave me alone

Don't you remember
Don't you remember what happened

How did you know about my troubled sleep
I've never told a soul about my nightmares
Night after night, coming into my dreams
Whining, complaining, trying to make me feel guilty

Don't you remember what happened

Night after night, coming into my dreams
Whining, complaining, trying to make me feel guilty
[sample: Family Plot (dir. Alfred Hitchcock, 1976); voice:
Cathleen Nesbitt as Julia Rainbird)


18.Behind the Disguise (Closing)


Tailor, Tailor
I don't know what this is all about

What kind of music do you play
[sample: Ragtime (dir. Milos Forman, 1981); voice: Brad Dourif
as Younger Brother]

Oh, you wanna know
Yes, if you don't mind
There's something I'd like you to listen to
Yes it's my new long player

What a lovely souvenir from the twentieth century
[sample: Beneath the Planet of the Apes (dir. Ted Post, 1971;
voice: Charlton Heston as Taylor]

It's doomed to failure!
Perhaps this time
And the next
Maybe
But you keep trying
Well I did my best
And I was very ably assisted by my colleagues
Thank you my friends for everything you did
