Embraceable You
11.
. . .


You don't skip a beat when you're hittin the street
(Walkin in N.Y.)
There's a kind of heart you became a part of
(Walkin in N.Y.)
Doo doo doo doot ee ya-ee-yeh-oh
(Walkin in N.Y.)
Me 'n my friend just walkin' and talkin
(Walkin in N.Y.)

There are times that will always stay
Somewhere in my thoughts
One of them will always be
Walkin in N.Y.
All you need is one good friend
And some time to spare
Stoppin' for coffee in some cafe
Life without a care

You don't skip a beat when you're hittin the street
(Walkin in N.Y.)
There's a kind of heart you became a part of
(Walkin in N.Y.)
Doo doo doo doot ee ya-ee-yeh-oh
(Walkin in N.Y.)
Me 'n my friend just walkin' and talkin
(Walkin in N.Y.)

You who were born with the sun above your shoulders
You turn me on, you turn me on
You have to know
You who were born where the sun she keeps her distance
You turn me on, you turn me on
But so does she

You who were born there where beauty is existence
You turn me on, you turn me on
Your body heals my soul
You who were born where you shiver and you shudder
You turn me on
The girl is gone
So come on, let's go

All the pearls of china fade astride a volta
Don't sew bee-lines to anybody's hide
Save your poison for a lover who is on your side

One way is rome and the other way is mecca
On either side
On either side of our motorbike
One way is home and the other way is papa
On either side
On either side, prepare to strike

When i get back i will dream in barnes and nobles
Dont leave me here
Dont leave me where angels fear to tread
When i get back i will bleed after my beating
Dont leave me here
Dont leave me here, im scared to death

All the pearls of china fade astride a volta
Don't sew bee-lines to anybody's hide
Save your poison for a lover who is on your side

My phone's on vibrate for you
Electro clash is karaoke too
I try to dance Britney Spears
I guess I'm getting on in years
My phone's on vibrate for you
God knows what all these new drugs do
I guess to have no more fears
But still I always end up in tears
In tears, in tears

So call me
Call me in the morning
Call me in the night
So call me
Call me anytime you like

My phone's on vibrate for you
But still I never ever feel from you
Pinocchio's now a boy
Who wants to turn back into a toy
(To a toy)

So call me
Call me in the morning
Call me in the night
So call me
Call me anytime you like

Let me tell you 'bout the new Ju-Ju Man
Have you ever heard of Bishop Tutu?
'Nother kinda' Ju-Ju
So old it's new
Boers heard it, dropped their arms,

Pled to murder
So have you heard what the man said?
Hear! Bishop Tutu wasundoubtedly here
So we've all heard what the man said
JuJu from Tutu
From Jo'burg to all the world
Hear!

One man with God, that's all
That's all that 'cha need
That's all that 'cha need
That's all that 'cha need
That's all that 'cha need
We heard what the man truly said
Tell us all what you did!
Stop hidin' it!

All must hear what the man said
Obey the call! Just tell it all!
The truth's won when the lyin's done!
Hear it!

Bishop's no pawn while the game's on
Hear Tutu
Let's talk awhile and then we'll reconcile
You tell the truth an' truth,
It cleans your soul out
The truth not the hold-out
It'll make a fella bigger
Try it once!
Tell the truth, bring Satan shame
A lie can tear a house down
Tell the truth and win the game,

All men know your name
Tell the truth like Tutu did
Expose the lie
Let it Out! Don't keep it hid
Reconcile and rise high
Now we've heard what the man said
He'll change your heart and mind
Truly, yes he will (have you)
(Have you heard) what the man said?

(Yes) Once you hear it, it will change you
And it will re-arrange you
It gives you the wisdom you need
Hear!
Hear-Hear!
Give-a-little-bit-o-listen
An'-you'll-gather-what"ch'r-missin'
When it's coming in yir ear.
Hear!
Hear! An'keep on hearin'

Every word's a power-sound
That turn y' right around
Just use your ears
His word's 'll cut through your tears
Each time he says
Will last the rest of your days
We've all heard what the man said

His sermon does count
Like the other reachin' on that mount
Back in the young days I'm tellin' you
Tutu, Tutu, Tutu has words fulla power
Tutu has got some news for you
Straight from the prophet's mouth

Usin' the phonebooth makin' a few calls
Doodlin' weird things usin' the booth walls
I go tme a big date I'm waitin' for my cat
He's puttin' his light on so he can look dap

I enjoy procrastinatin'
'Cause I'm busy while I'm waitin'
Doodlin' away

Sittin' an' dinin', dinner beginnin'
Started desiginin', usin' the linen
Jus' talkin' to my man an' doodlin' my bit
The waiter got salty, told me ta please quit

Told the waiter don't be dizzy
Can'tcha see I'm very busy
Doodlin' away

Do ya doodle all day
Asked the waiter in his way
Do ya doodle all night
Tell the waiter he was right

In your doodlin' way
That's the way I wanna stay
Are you painting things right
Doodlin' sheds a lotta light

I don't know... what ta do
Ain't nothin' you can do
When I'm doodlin' you
Doodlin's all I wanna do
That's for true

Why does every little thing I see
Look exactly like a doodle ta me
If I ever had a doubt what
Life is all about I, get my pencil out
And then commence to doodlin'

And I find it so relaxing
Especially when I feel, that my life is really taxing..

'Cause weird designs weird designs
They only show what's goin' on in
Weirder minds weirder minds
'Cause when you doodle
Then your noodle's flying blind

Every little thing that you write
Just conceivably might
Be a thought, that you captured
While capping a wink
Doodlin' takes you beyond whatcha think
Then ya draw whatcha think

I'd be so lost without my doodlin'
It really helps to ease my mind
I'd be tempest tossed without my doodlin'
'Cause when I'm doodlin' there's one thing I find
I really, I really, really truly wanna figure out
What my doo dlin's all about

Later the waiter had me arrested
Took me ta Bellevue where I was tested
I got me a doctor probin' my noodle
Before he was half done, I taught him ta doodle
Showed him hidden thoughts that linger
Findin' out right through your finger...
Doodlin' away...

The doctor was real nice told me ta be cool
Looked at the waiter, called 'im the real fool..
He looked at my baby an' told 'im to feel free
Taught him ta doodle so he could bug me
When he put his arms around me
Much to his surprise he found me
Doodlin' away

Doo-doo-doodle all day

Gotta doodle baby

. . .


The hour's up it's past eleven
We're breathing and today's the twelfth
Witness for the composition testifying for itself
Lost the early contradictions focusing with all intent
Coming clean to one another we figure out why we're been sent
Working on our disappearance there'll be none for all to see
Operation Final Clearnce take us where we want to be
Time's arrive to turn it overdream believers come to realise
Wishing on a four-leaf clover gets you nothing then the flower dies
If you ever move
Or ever get out
Tell me where to?
Why not...

Where it's hot nicce and hot but don't touch the lava
(Molten lava)
Siren voices singing sun sits high above
And with our minds made up we'll share a cup of steamy java
(Steamy java)
With a view we knowwe will come to love
We never said we were born and bread home town Hawaiian
(We're not Hawaiians)

Gonna make it to where sun sits high above
They'll roll the welcome mat outonto this offshore island
(Sunny island)
With a view down at the ocean spreading the lotion and love

Where it's hot nicce and hot but don't touch the lava
(Molten lava)
Siren voices singing sun sits high above
And with our minds made up we'll share a cup of steamy java
(Steamy java)
With a view we knowwe will come to love

. . .


Climbin' high, reachin' wide, makin' strides
We are all travellin'
On our way towards a fate all our own
Breakin' times, new designs, from the source of our minds
Echoing what the future unfolds

Here we go we're travellin'
Movin' faster, higher than ever before
Yes we're now far reachin' it
And we're breakin' new ground doin' it
Steady goin' when non have ventured before
Einstein went and figured it
Movin' faster, passin' the speed of light did it
And we're doin' it
Breakin' the code that the gods held from us
As we venture and we open the doors
Thought ascend, we unfold

From the source of being
Comes a light we have and hold
Older than the relics of Babylon have to tell us and
We stand upon all the strong shoulders of our history
Towards our destiny, and the precious memory of our spirit

Here we go we're travellin'
Movin' faster, higher than ever before
Yes we're now far reachin' it
And we're breakin' new ground doin' it
Steady goin' when non have ventured before
Just like Armstrong Eagled it
Steppin', slidin', buzzin' with Buzz on the moon did it
And we're doin' it
Seein' what the gods up on Mars left to us
As we venture and we open the doors

From God's livin' spirit
Comes a love that's ours to own
Older than Upanashads tried to show us
And we shine aside all the bright star lights of the galaxies
Towards infinity and the living light that dwells in our spirit

Thought ascended, we unfold

. . .


Now, now that my love burns like the sun
No Longer is there desperation,
That emptiness that serves who we are from what we seem
Now, now that my heart reversed it's pain
Now that my job can sense it's laughter
The days of madness they don't call on me, to shadow me
Here new hope is found
Love made a way, to convey
All the joy that springs within the heart and
Core of Sound
The Core of Sound

. . .


Unfolding enveloping missiles of soul
Recall senses sadly
Mirage like soft blue like lanterns below
To light the way gladly
Whether whistling heaven's clouds disappear
Whether the wind withers memory
Whether whiteness whisks out shadows away
Feel flows (white hot glistening shadowy flows)
Feel goes (black hot glistening shadowy flows)

Unbending never ending tables of time
Record all the yearning
Unfearing all appearing message divine
Eases the burning
Whether willing witness waits at my mind
Whether hope dampens memory
Whether wondrous will stands tall at my side
Feel flows (white hot glistening shadowy flows)
Feel goes (black hot glistening shadowy flows)

Encasing all embracing wreath of repose
Engulfs all the senses
Imposing, unclosing thoughts that compose
Retire the fences

Whether wholly heartened life fades away
Whether harps heat the memory
Whether wholly heartened life fades away
Whether wondrous will stands tall at my side
Whether whiteness whisks out shadows away
Feel flows (white hot glistening shadowy flows)
Feel goes (black hot glistening shadowy flows)
Feelings to grow (White hot glistening shadowy flows)

White hot glistening shadowy flows
White hot glistening shadowy flows
White hot glistening shadowy flows

. . .

Embraceable You

Come softly darling, come softly darling
Come softly darling, come softly darling

I want, want you to know

Please hold, hold me so tight
All through, all through the night..

Speak softly, darling
Hear what I sa-ay

Always, always

I've waited, waited so long
For your kisses and your love
Please come, come to me
From up, from up above

Come softly, darling
Come softly, darling
Come to me stay
Come by and stay here forever and a day

Well I met him on a Sunday (oooooo)
And I missed him on a Monday (oooooo)
When I phoned him on a Tuesday (oooooo)
ANd I dated him on a Wednesday (oooooo)
Well I kissed him on a Thursday (oooooo)
And he didn't come Friday (oooooo)
When he showed up Saturday (oooooo)
I said "Bye-bye baby"
("Disande ronde ron ronde ronde," etc.)
