The women are a-weeping
For their blue-eyed son
The men are all beaten
'Cos their day is done

You were out on the highway
With the stars in your eyes
Just saying 'alas alas alas
We were too young to die
Too young'

The sky is blue and purple
And the moon is proud
And in the churchyard they are whisperin'
Beneath the ground

You were out on the highway
With the stars in your eyes
Singing 'alas alas alas
We were too young to die
Too young'

Be good to yourself
Be good to your heart
Be good to yourself
Love with your heart
Reach out in life
Reach out in death
And love will be your requiem

Well if you had the world at your feet
If you had the love that you seek
We are the stars we are the sky...
We're too young
Too young

. . .


I'm a second sight yeah
I've seen a part of you
Through the looking glass yeah
In another land

I'm a second sight yeah
The real heart of you
Walking through a fire yeah
There's nothing I won't do
Nothing I won't do

Do you wanna see the man behind the mask?
I won't stand in your way
I'll tell you what to say
If you want to see the man behind the screen
I'm a second sight!

I'm a second sight yeah
The other side of you
Through the looking glass
And down the rabbit hole

I'm a second sight yeah
The real heart of you
Lover you've forgotten
Coming back to you
There's nothing I won't do

Do you wanna see the man behind the mask?
You say that love is blind
But baby I'm to find
Do you want to see the man behind the dream?
I'm a second sight!

I'm a second sight yeah
I'm a second sight yeah (I've seen...)
I've seen that part of you

I'm a second sight yeah
I'm a second sight yeah (I've seen...)
I've seen that part of you

. . .


Don't wanna be wrapped up in a flag
Or spill blood upon the sand
No don't wanna die for some pack of lies
Or a dream that they made in a room

But I would die for love
Yes I would kneel at your door
Yeah I would die for love
Love, love love

Some people will stick you in the eye
And try to burn you up inside
You don't have to pray for the death of your enemies
You'll defeat them with a song

Yeah I would die for love
Yes I would kneel at your door
Yeah I would die for love

If the voices of fear
Could be banished far from here
In my darkness and pain
There's a song of yesterday

But I would die for love
Yes I would kneel at your door
Oh I would die for love
Love

. . .


I'm an A1 Major League sociopath
And I'm a hard-loving business man
So don't fight it (No no no)
You might like it (Ooh yeah)

I cut my foes and my enemies down
And now I'm crawling on the ground
I'm just a man (he's just a man)
All your chicks can't understand

I'm a dic- I'm a dic- I'm a dictator
I'm a dic- I'm a dic- I'm a dictator
Dictator of the free world, come on!

Dictator of the free world
Dictator of the free world
Yeah I'm a dictator of the free world

I've been digging for a living in the artic lands
Who cares about the weather when you're as rich as I am?
I'm making waves
'Cos Jesus saves!

Oh baby I'm crazy wo-oa-oa-oa-oh
I wanna make love in Guantanamo
Cos I'm just a man (he's just a man)
And you chicks can't change what I am

I'm a dic- I'm a dic- I'm a dictator
I'm a dic- I'm a dic- I'm a dictator
Dictator of the free world, come on!

Dictator of the free world
Dictator of the free world
Yeah I'm a dictator of the free world

Oh yeah say my name
Woohoo!

Let us pray
God us with us on our side
Who cares if coloured people die
Come on baby come on let's roll
Close your eyes and lose your soul

Dictator of the free world
Dictator of the free world
Yeah I'm a dictator of the free world

Say I'm a dictator of the free world
Dictator of the free world, come on!

Once upon a time, a long long time ago there was a planet floating all alone in space. Miraculously it sustained many forms of life moving and non-moving creatures and they would all take great pleasure in watching the heavens above them revolving in perfect harmonic order. Before televisions and radios existed, before podcasts and internet pornography had even been imagined, families would gather round the fire and they would tell folk the stories to pass the time and take wisdom from the elders. Once upon a time, a god asked a great king 'What is the most amazing thing in the world?'. The king replied that every day a million souls pass into the abode of death and yet none believes that they shall follow.

Gonna sing the song of love
Just you and I
We can save our world again
Just one day at a time (one day at a time)

Om Namah Narayana
Om Namah Narayana

So strange some folks these days
Locked up inside (all locked up inside)
Well darkness likes to keep them blind
But we'll hold back the tide

D'You feel another energy?
I feel a power growing
D'You feel another energy?
I feel a power growing

Feel another energy...

Gonna sing the song of love (gonna sing the song of love)
And shine a light (and shine a light)
We were born to see the dawn
And we'll hold back the tide

D'You feel another energy?
I feel a power growing
D'You feel another energy?
I feel a power growing

Om Namah Narayana
Om Namah Narayana
Om Namah Narayana
Om Namah Narayana
Om Namah Narayana
Om Namah Narayana
Om Namah Narayana

Feel another energy
Feel a power growing
Feel another energy

Om Namah Narayana
Hari Aum

Every story has a beginning
From our birth star to the very end
And the wheel keeps on spinning
The tattered cloth of love you wear

These are the Shadowlands
And nobody understands
How to love you

Every second makes an hour
Wrap them tight and keep them warm
For every seed holds a flower
Waiting for the rain to fall

These are the Shadowlands
And I'm just a shadow man
Trying to love you
Oh let me love you

Can't you see I'm coming one step at a time
Oh I'm reaching out into the light
Let me love you

Every story has a beginning
From our birth star until the very end

. . .


I am the night I am the moon at your window
Everyone knows the fool that I am
Like a bird making roads for winter
Can you recall we used to be friends?

I am the day I am the sun in your garden
Maybe I'll light the way to your heart
Like a song playing after evening
Everyone knows the fool that I am

Love is coming 'round again
Have you spent your chances 'fore the end
or need a friend
Everyone's looking for something
Everyone's looking for someone
Fool...

I am the smile that was secretly offered
No hesitation for your delight
Before hurt before love was questioned
And we believed in love at first sight

Love is coming 'round again
Have you spent chances 'fore the end
or need a friend
Everyone's looking for something
Everyone's looking for someone
Fool...

Fool that I am
But I can see you tumbling and turning
Never learning
I don't understand
Fool, fool...

Love me forever fool that I am
Be at your service fool that I am
Fool that I am

He was an outcast from the island sailing across the sea
Bending the horizon bearing with the breeze
Searching for a treasure buried long ago
'Cos nothing lasts forever except what you don't know

But he weren't afraid of dying or stepping through that door
The compass started reeling and he stared into the storm

Soon everything was rolling and rolling like a hound
And an angry ton of water knocked him to the ground

And it kinda stands to reason
It was hurricance season
Hey-ey-ey-ey

He was hanging in the darkness holding to the land
Faces in the water of folks he'd left behind
Saying 'boy you must be crazy should have stayed at home
Stuck with what you'd started, stuck with what you know'

And the sea had come to take him and snuff him like a light
In the black and heavy water in the black and heavy sight

And it kinda stands to reason
It was hurricance season
Hey-ey-ey-ey

Hey-ey-ey-ey

He called up to the angels he called into the deep
Said 'God if you can hear me give me some relief'
And He didn't ask for favours didn't want to ask for gold
Only one posession possession of a soul

'I'm begging for your mercy I'm begging to you please
I'm just a simple traveller lost upon the sea'

And it kinda stands to reason
It was hurricance season
Hey-hey-hey-hey

. . .


Cold on horizon
Hope of the sea
A breeze
Calling me back to my love

Oh despair
How softly we cry and mourn for a dream
Just a dream
Oh
Wait for me

Slow on my armour
Cool on my mind
This time
I'll be forever with you

I have waited so long I can't take the stars in degrees
In degrees
Oh
Wait for me

'Cos you are my home
Across ocean and farm to be there
To be there

Moon on the water
Churn in the deep
My sleep
Has ended and I'll come home to you

Now your love
Blows gently
And haunts these sails
Cross the sea
It's endless sea
Oh
Wait for me

Oh
Wait for me
Wait for me
Wait for me
Wait for me

. . .


Well I'm 6ft down in an open grave
Living dead shuffling through my brain
In a shopping mall or a multiplex
All I see is the presence of death

But don't ask me to the party tonight
I'd bum you out I'd spin you out

Yeah I'm 6ft down in an open grave
Thinking about all the mess I made
In my world of pain in my broken home
I can hear a voice but I'm all alone

Oh my my need the magical seed
The sound of love come and rescue me
Come and rescue me

Oh my Jesus can you heal the blind
Oh my Jesus well I'm a similar kind
Oh my Jesus can you spare some time at all?

Oh my Jesus come and rescue me
Oh my Jesus come and rescue me
I'm 6ft down what's become of me?
Oh my Jesus come and rescue (Oh my Jesus)
(Oh my Jesus)
(Oh my Jesus)

I'm 6ft down at the end of the line Uh-huh alright
Got no shows and I got no time Uh-huh alright
I thank you lord for bringing me here
'Cos the end is nigh and I feel no fear
The end is nigh I feel no fear

Oh my Jesus
Oh my Jesus
Oh my...

. . .


Once I was fleeing the city trying to cross the fields
Cracking electrical storms chasing at my heels
Soon I was burning a fever like never before
I felt so alone but then I came to a door
It was the house of a doctor so I stepped inside

Doctor doctor they say you're a miracle man
The man with the miracle plan

Old guy was checking me out with his fire eyes
He said 'Sit down by the fire kid, just try to realise
You see, some times some things just don't happen they aren't mean to be
Like going into that storm so you could run into me
Everybody needs some help sometimes to seal the deal'

He said 'I ain't no preacher dealing lies
No cheater, no reaper in disguise.
Those are the agents of darkness and endless night (yeah).

'So tell me your name and I'll slip through that door
Back to that place that you heard of before
So hold on hold on there ain't no one quick fix' said Dr.Kitt

Doctor doctor they say you're a miracle man
The man with the miracle plan

For folk need love
But folk seek pain
There's nowt so strange as folk they say
There's nowt so strange as folk they say

. . .


I'm all alone at home sat talking on the phone
To a girl who looks like she should be chewing on a bone
Yeah I'm getting so tired, so goddamn wired
I think my sense of humour j-j-j-j--just went and expired
So sick of subterfuge

I blow my CB radio

Super CB operator
Can you hear me operator?
Super CB operator
I'm alone here operator
Super CB operator
Super CB operator

Super
CB

Super CB Operator
Super! Super!

Show me a man, a man who understands about sacrifice about love without demands
Who sees the sands of time running through our hands, yeah!
I'm calling to the universe you know what I am missing
A magician of position and mystical precision
A song divine a form sublime
A love that exists beyond space and time
A love that exists beyond space and time
Give me love
Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, oh!

Super CB operator
Can you hear me operator?
Super CB operator

Super CB operator
yeah yeah yeah yeah
Super CB operator

Once more, yeah!
