In the beginning
They had valuable traits
Just don't mention anything to him
All we ask of you
Is to break both his legs
For the trouble
Caused as vampyre
They don't even care about us
In the backs of their cars
It's too hot to handle
Too cold to shovel
In the beginning
They had positive traits
Just don't mention
Everything to him
All we ask of you
Is a stake through the heart
For the troubles caused as vampyre
And they don't even care about us
In the backs of their cars
It's too hot to handle
Too cold to shovel
Too cold to shovel
Too cold to shovel...

Ask yourself
What do you think about us?
I was in the station
Working on something for us

You say your empty mind
Is easy when it's drugged
I watched you fall out of bed and scrape up your back
Well, maybe
This life is like the drug.
This life is like the drug.

Ask yourself
What do they say about us?
I was in the station
Cooking up something for us

You say your empty mind
Is easy when it?s drugged
I watched you fall out of bed and scrape up your back
Well, maybe
This life is like your bed.
This life is like your bed.

I've seen you fall between
Everywhere we go
They want to love you, baby
More than you know I've seen the storm inside you
All through the day I know it never leaves you
Not in that way

(Yeah)

I've seen your empty mind is easy when it's drugged
I've watched you fall out of bed and then scrape up your back
Well, maybe This life is like your head.
This life is like your head.
This life is like your head...

Ask yourself
Ask yourself
Yeah, ask yourself

Say the talk, and I won't mind
The days are caused, you know I never try
And I love you like the one I used to know
And if you never had the time
To last an ordinary problem
And I said I'd like to have a place to go

And you live, and you try
I could never find another
If you walk me to the car park, I won't go

To I live this all time
Flashing for that sees be saw you
I could love you like a sister,
But never had
Drawing circles in your concrete
I will know your every move
And I'll send ya, I'll send ya

And you live, and you try
I could never find another
If you walk me to the car park, I won't go
And we live, and we try
Live was hard on us between us
I will love you, I won't let go

We are one inside these walls, undercover
We are one inside these walls, undercover
We are one inside these walls, undercover

We are one in
We are one in
We are one

And you live, and you try
I could never find another
If you walk me to the car park, I won't go
And we live, and we try
Live was hard on us between us
I will love you, I won't let go

We are one
We are one
We are one
We are one

Walk me out by the water's edge
Oh, my brother
I'm coming down
We are you
We are almost there
And the man keeps coming 'round
I don't know who was right
Or what they saw in you that night
But here we are under moonlight
Words...cannot describe
Walk me out in the morning sun
Oh, sweet momma
I'm coming down
We are young
We are almost there
And the man keeps coming 'round
And I don't know who was right
Or what they saw in you that night
Here we are under moonlight
Words cannot describe
It's clear to me
You're like
The oceans and the light
Try and you'll remember what you used to be
It's clear to me this day will take you for a ride
A place that you once longed to be
And there it is...
I don't know who was right
Or what they saw in you that night
Here we are under the moonlight
Words...cannot describe
Walk me out
By the water's edge
Oh, my brother
I'm coming down
We were young
We are almost there
And the man keeps coming 'round
The man keeps coming

Cadillac Boy
And all he wants to do is work
How can you make him feel?
I was let down in your photographic whirl
I was in love with it
It's so much harder
Than this
So much harder
Than this
I was in the door
Didn't feel like doing work
We're staring out
We're starting now
You see me go
You feel like doing work
We're starting now
We're starving now
I let you go, you never put me out
Stop it now
Just stop now...
And say, "I will."
Say, "I will."
Maybe I'm right
Maybe I'm right
Maybe I'm right on, right on, right on
You see me go and you feel like doing work
We're staring now
We're starting now
I let you go, you never put me out
Stop it now
Just stop now
And say, "I will."
Just say, "I will."
Maybe I'm right
Maybe I'm right
Maybe I'm right on, right on, right on
I said, "Hey, baby, baby, baby, I'll take you tonight."
And I'll see you on the other side, sugar
Your pleasant face, your crooked smile
Maybe tomorrow is a lifetime away...

Shame, pass the ticket along
Are you outside or inside?
You are in.
So what you want to know?
That everybody wants you?
You're old enough to say
What's really on your mind
Shame, has to take it alone
Are we not for between us
We are here
So what you gonna do
When everybody loves you?
You're old enough to know
What's really on their minds
They wanted the same thing
In love with the same thing
They wanted it all
So what you gonna do
When everybody hates you?
You're old enough to have known
What was really on their minds
They wanted the same thing
In love with the same thing
In love with the same thing
They wanted the same thing
In love with the same thing
Wanted the same thing
They wanted it all

Sometimes it's pain
Sometimes it's hollow
Never the same
It'll change you tomorrow
The sadness
Doesn't matter when it's gone
Girl in a red dress
Passes you by
A hurried deception
Glean to her eye
Like the weather will not hurt her
When she's wrong
You say you feel all broke and discarded
What's on your mind, baby?
You know you'll get on well
Once you've started
Over again
This day is alive
This day is alive
This day is alive
Take another chance if a turn for disaster
Is the best thing for you
Oh, the difference is the lies
I've told are true
Do not tell your father
The thoughts you've been thinking
They'll burn him too long
After all it's the dream that holds up the sun
Yeah, you want to have something that's real
Well, give it some time, baby
You're all wrapped up in the words
You're repeating over again
This day is alive
This day is alive
This day is alive
So now you tell me
What you're gonna do to me
You got a lot on your mind, baby
You go so much that'll get through to me
Without telling me lies
You say you wanna stand up for something, alright...
What's on your mind, baby
Oh, you could stand here for nothing
Or start it again
Start it again
This day is alive
This day is alive
This day is alive

I want to live alone in the desert
I want to be like Georgia O'Keefe
I want to live on the Upper East Side
And never go down in the street
Michael Jackson in Disneyland
Don't have to share it with nobody else
Lock the gates, Goofy, take my hand
And lead me through the world of self
Splendid isolation
I don't need no one
Splendid isolation

Don't want to wake up with on one beside me
Don't want to take up with nobody new
Don't want nobody coming by without calling first
Don't want nothing to do with you

I'm putting tinfoil up on the windows
Lying down in the dark to dream
I don't want to see their faces
I don't want to hear them scream
Splendid isolation
I don't need no one
Splendid isolation
Splendid isolation
I don't need no one
Splendid isolation

Don't want to wake up with no one beside me
Don't want to take up with nobody new
Don't want nobody coming by without calling first
Don't want nothing to do with you

Sandy, I don't recognize you
So much has changed in your face
I dream at night you managed to take me home
And you could not get over my place
And you say, "Hey, what you doin' here?
I think that you would rather be there...
And your love is like a broken bottle."
Oh, Jesse, what you done with yourself?
I don't think you have to recognize me
But we was walking alone
And we had fun, fun, fun
I'm gonna buy you a new ride, baby
Gonna buy you a new line, baby
Something inside just walks me home
Oh, Sally, I've seen you before
You managed to take me home
What were you doing?
What was it about?
I guess it was the thought that counts
And lovers bruise each other
And there's a courage in what you ask
I'm gonna buy you a new ride, baby
I'm gonna buy you a new line, baby
Something inside just walks me home
Yeah
And lovers bruise each other
No, I don't wanna be like that
And there's a courage in what you ask
I'm gonna buy you a new ride, baby
Gonna buy you a new line, baby
Something inside you just walks me home
I'm gonna buy you a new ride, baby
Gonna buy you a new line, baby
Something inside just walks me home
Something inside just walks me home

Came back from this big career
And turned it all around
Yeah, see them all over there?
They did it just like you
Oh, back to the beginning
And start it all again?
Never...
How do you go on?
Go on
Now you go on... how'd you go on?
You go 'round again
Wake up for the city lights
Baby don't know me
Baby don't understand
Wake up for the city
How'd you go on?
Go on
Now you go on
How'd you go, how do you go on?
Don't wait for me
There's no lies between us
Don't leave with me the rest of our live
How'd you go on?
Go on
Now you go on
How do you go...
How do you go... on?
How do you go on?
Go on
How do you go... on?
Go back to the beginning
And start it all again... never

When winter comes
Along these shores
Old Hollywood
We're knocking down
We're sifting through
We are the actual tigers
When winter comes
They leave behind us
Throw your arms around my neck
And hold me tightly
There's a lot that we will get
I'm asking you...
Let your diamond bracelet fall
Over the ice age
Over the ice age
Those summer years
We'd follow them
In light of day
In light of us
We'll see it through
When they're playing our song
Those summer years
Have long since gone
Throw your arms around my neck
And whisper softly
Of a thing that we will get
I'm asking you
Let your diamond bracelet fall
Over the ice age
Over the ice age
I want to go back
I want to go back
In future times
We'll hold it closer
Imagining
We weren't older
Yet, through it all
They'll be playing our song
Throw your arms around my neck
And whisper softly
Of a thing that we will get
I'm asking you...
Let your diamond bracelet fall
Over the ice age
Over the ice age...

Eighteen men went into the house
And burned it to the ground
Two men came out from the house
Never went to town
Everyone knew who the carpenter was
Breaking everything
Nathaniel was a lucky one
He had to get his things
Georgie Boy, oh, Georgie Boy
Sister Anne-Marie and a 12-year-old
They left the burning town
Rode for miles on a subway train
That's how the legend went down
And, yeah, now you've been fooled
And now you can see that
Nothing's gonna change
It's the witches who know
They only do what they want
And then like to have someone explain
Georgie Boy, oh, Georgie Boy
Now you can move and now you can sing
Georgie Boy
Now it's over when you can't ascribe
You say now's the time for a different try
But you have to tell
Does running make that sound?
Twenty years on
It's a mission accomplished
And everyone's feeling great
He says, "No one's ever gonna trap me down
Or make me make mistakes."
So now what you do
And now what you say
Means nothing to the rest
And you make a rich bitch
And you know what you are
Yeah, you find yourself in a purple dress
Georgie Boy, oh, Georgie Boy
And now you can move
And now you can sing
Georgie Boy, oh, Georgie Boy

So come with me
To a place that we don't know
Come with me
I just wanna say "hello"
If you need some inspiration before we go
Just know
It's the way I have fallen in with you....
It's the way I have fallen in with you

So come with me
To a river I have seen
On the way
We can wash off in the stream
Time is waiting for the lightning to arrive
You can take my life
But I'll never die
You can tell
That's the way I'll survive

So here we are now
A couple of fools
Driving around here
With nothing to do
We just made a bad decision
That's alright

You can take my life
But I'll never die
You can tell
That's the way I'll survive

Heading for
The bandstand in the sky
