Only Love

He was the crown prince of the neo beat,she was the molly millions of market street.the night they met the stars were clear and bright

and white.Through all post-modernette disease,nostalgia and technology,together they would face hand in glove,and there was only love

The bride was dressed in white regret,the wedding march was like a gauntlet,the anvil chorus played as they marched on and on.the vows were blithely to agreed,invoking all they thought they'd need.they kissed but thought it would never be enough,when there was only love

and she'd say "where's my earthquake? Where's my dream?.When do I get my chance to split at the seams? What could it mean?

the note he wrote with the flowers he sent her,try to remember the ways we'd dismember, though we could never match the dreams of youth and truth.They stood upon the golden gate, halfway heroes halfway bait. when all was said and done before push came to shove, there was only love

Gabrielle

When will you ever know, how much do I have to tell you so. All that you have to do is listen to these words that I'm telling you Gabrielle I could never look down on you, Gabrielle something that I already knew. You don't have to agree, you don't have to say anything,all that you have to see,is just how much you really mean to me

I could never leave you lonely, I could show you how it could be be

this should be so elementary, all you have to do is tell me so.

One day I'll get to you and then you are going to see that it's true, that I really do know a world that I could walk you through

Go, she said

There once was a girl, young and true, and there was a boy that she knew, she looked in his eyes, ever blue, and said to him may I please

ask this of you. where shall we run, where shall we play, the world that we know, has gone away, not that I mind, It's OK. But there is one thing that I would like to say. gogogogogog, she said, gogogogogo. gogogogogo, she said. But please don't tell me no...

As they looked off into the night, she said in a voice very slight,I wish I may,wish I might, have you here by my side with me tonight

what shall we do now that we, have shattered our own history, I don't know much admittedly, but there is one thing that you can do for me...

I'm in love with the puppet girl

Give me a night, a moonlit night, with me and my love, and that is enough, let me tell you the story of the girl who has rocked my world

she's a delight, a beam of sunlight, and when she smiles, I'm dizzy a

while, and I'm the happiest boy for miles and it makes me want to scream and shout. I know one day everyone will feel the way I do,

I'm in love with the puppet girl, one day you'll be too

I once was a fool, with so much to do, now I'm fine, wasting my time,

with my scary valentine and I want to tell you now. If she was here, I wouldn't go out, we'd stay inside and if they tried to come and find us we'd decide that it's time to lock up the house.

outside of my window, sober young fellow, bearing reminders that harsh on my mellow, replaying a story of heartbreak and sorrow, leave it by the doorstep, I'll read it tommorow

Somebody knows everything

Somebody knows everything about me, somebody knows, someone knows it all, somebody knows everything about me, I want to know

just what they're hiding, where is the life that I thought I was living,

where is the love that I thought was mine, somebody knows everything about me, there's a ghost by the window and it wont go away...

Somebody knows everything about you, somebody knows, someone knows it all, somebody knows everything about you, theres a file somewhere with your name on it , everyone quickly passing by you acting like everything is fine, somebody knows everything about you and the things you can't get to follow you everyday...

Somebody knows everything aboout us, somebody knows, someone knows it all, somebody knows everything about us I want to know just what they're hiding, in the light of old cold shaped flourescence

over where the sun's supposed to shine, somebody knows everything

about us, it's a secret we won't share, I don't care anyway...

I'm a little time bomb

Why not just sit a while together, to do I can think nothing better, cause I'm a little time bomb tick tick ticking all night

now everyones got a secret, but not the kind that I've got I bet

cause I'm a little time bomb tick tick ticking all night

nobody knows, nobody knows, nobody knows but me

so let's hope this conversation ceases, before we both go to pieces

cause I'm a little time bomb....

and the secret to this life you'll find, be in the right place at the right time...

Candy Jerusalem theme

Coming soon to your TV set, right here on channel 93, the it girl of the fishnet and debris set, the one all you kids want to see, everybody wants her, everybody cares, everybody wants her, she's not really there, her name is Candy, Candy Jerusalem, Candy, Candy Jerusalem, Candy, Candy Jerusalem, she's so sweet that everyone wants her. See her strolling round the party, pointing out you fatal flaws, she's looking at you like you've got tentacles you're looking at her like she's got claws, she's a white tornado, you're so Mr Clean, she's a white tornado, and all the children sing...

All the best people

I think that it's time for me to tell you, something I've waited very long to say, it's not a secret, not at all, in fact people hear it every day. It's just you never know it until you have to and then it doesn't

matter anyway, so at the risk of appearing nonchalant, I'd like to say it if I may. and that's All the best people, all the best people, all the best people in the world, get bad chests and bone diseases, everybody knows, all the best people in the world

and you ought to know by now, you ought to know by now, if you didn't know already, you ought to know by now...

look at everybody, it's a party, a veritable parade of misery, they've

all got their problems, everyone, they drink and smile and can't help

but agree, we watch them together as they go by, whoever thought that we could be, the ones that they think of when they would say "nothing bad ever happens to me"

Armaggedon surfer girl, Rock on

Maybe we could go to the movies, maybe we could go out to eat, maybe we could go out dancing, maybe we could maybe maybe we'll see. everything that you want to do, you know I want to do it too, got a brand new shirt and brand new shoes, one more thing I've got to tell you

I have seen you out by the shore line, watching the F-111's go by

standing there and looking so fly, I knew that day I had to make you mine. I will take you out past the highway, we'll stay there at our home by the sea, a special place that only could be only for you and only for me...

Funny baby

No one loves my funny baby

no one loves my funny baby

no one loves my funny baby like me

she doesn't care for me, but it's all right

offer sympathy, I won't touch a bite

cause no one loves my funny baby like me

she's so happy now, I can see it

she says she'll be allright, I believe it

it's like a joke but it wont mean a thing

but I know it must be funny cause everyones laughing

I thought she would be so good for me

now I'm the king of comedy

but no one love my funny baby like me

who'll be knowing just what you'll miss

when you're knowing that your love is

so much, it's such a shame to waste it

she's so sympathetic you can almost taste it

so you can stop your second guessing

you can't accuse me, I'm confessing

no one loves my funny baby

like me

MUSIC FOR A WORLD WITHOUT LIMITATIONS

Kill Kill Kill

Now come on everybody / from Hanoi to the motor city

Helsinki to the Cape Town Harbor / Amsterdam to Ann Arbor

there's a new sensation / for the mean generation

like a brand new party / let's get it started

when you just cant stand still / make that move, kill kill kill

when I'm sad / all day long / I stand right up and sing this little song

kill kill kill (etc.)

Now they're doing it out on the coast / where the California girls are really the ghost

summer's here and the time is right / it doesn't matter if your black or white

or brown or yellow / or mad or mellow

stop feeling slighted / cause you're invited

when you can't take that pill / rock all night, kill kill kill

I'm so sad all day long / if you're too, lets all sing along

kill kill kill (etc.)

Nobody I Know

Nobody I know could ever have a better reason / nobody I know for leaving than you do / of all the things I said whoever said that wasn't true / Nobody / Nobody I know

Nobody I know could ever make it look so easy / nobody I know could take this sweatshop and call it home / and live for the satisfaction of knowing you're not alone / nobody / nobody I know

what you gonna say what you gonna do/when you see you're whole life broken in two/one half hurt the other half wit/you've made you're bed now you can cry in it

nobody I know could ever take such pretty pictures / so life like that I almost catch my death / who can say I love you if you can't catch you're breath / nobody / nobody I know

Tabernacle o'Clay

The lights were low / you're there and everybody knows / the time had come to see with what was over and done / you were someone else / was you and me and a car that wrapped around a tree / I'm here you're gone / to leave me only singing this song / you were someone else / and I stepped right up and I started to sway / as I looked down on that tabernacle of clay / as I listened to the words that the minister'd say when he's talking how love's a living thing

there was a line I was there in very little time / I looked I shook / in my chest felt needles and hooks / you were someone else / I don't decide who lives who dies / you looked so fine seeing you for the very last time / but you were someone else

Brenda Revisited

All alone on a summer day / and the world it won't go away / I was waiting for it to end / nothing else I could pretend / all alone no where to go / "I don't like mondays" on the radio / staring through September heat / at the schoolyard across my street and I know / I'm a killer but I'm allright I'm looking for something to do / there's a gun on the wall it always reminds me of you / back to days as the local freak / as I'd hear all the kiddies shriek / I was looking for a place to hide / there was nothing I wouldn't have tried / i've been looking for a clue with nothing else to do / but to step upon the flowers of a childhood short and sour and I know / (chorus) / I've been thinking about it now / if I even know how / to believe even in belief / supertankers on the reef /

I'm thinking bout being all alone / the gun cabinet's shiny glow / pet rocks and modeling glue / most of all I'm thinking bout you and I know / (chorus)

Gun Heaven

gun heaven everyone gets one

gun heaven everyone there

gun heaven everyone has fun

gun heaven nobody's scared

there's an ache in everyone's shoulder / there's a ring in everyone's ear / all the deer are painted with targets / it's raining buckshot and bee r /all the cartridges hang in bunches from all the Winchester trees / there we all be together knowing what it means to be free

(chorus)

one day we'll all be together / one day we'll finally know why

in the place where crosses are crosshairs and the bullets go when they die / there we will all be so happy / there we finally know bliss / all gathered down by the river / you can aim and you'll never miss

Hologram Sam

hologram sam hologram sam / up on the roof with a video cam / child of the night/the windows and lights of the apartment house across the street beckoning bright / what does he see? what could it Be? the chief of police attacked by killer fleas / the unforeseen host / face like a ghost / all right there as he's moving in close / so close you could almost touch him

percadan anne percadan anne / wayward child of the tryptophan ban / in the mirror she stares / scratches and tears / looks like she could have just fallen down the stairs / annie was a bad girl but it didn't matter cause annie met a bad boy who was even badder / they got together like they new that they should / now annie's bad boy makes annie look good / so good you almost touch her

dexedrine dan dexedrine dan / fastest drawl north of the rio grande / sitting at the bar driving in his car / pedal to the metal he's a rebel in treble / you better watch out / it doesn't look good / he'd talk you to death if he thought that he could / he wants you to know just how he feels /he says "no one believes me but I know that I'm real" / so real you almost touch him

Happygirl

I recall what she was / as the room was abuzz / she had a callousness that was so alluring / sneering to speak I felt so meek / her sincerity was antique but reassuring / she would smile as her friends would say "hello your highness" / though I'd never know it I would try to guess / for the thrill she would be kind if you could kill with kindness / and though I didn't mind it I still felt so mindless / but there's not a sad face around / round / happygirl saves the day / there's not a sad face around / it's a-ok cause happygirl saves the day / slightly amazed I was slightly dazed/trying to think of ways that I could hate her / various sins / dolls stuck with pins / the one who dies with the most scars wins? / maybe later / she walked into the room and right up to me / right up to the point where she could talk down to me / could tell by her eyes she could see right through me / I said "I love you" and she said "sue me" / (chorus) / was it something that she meant? / when did she get so content? / was it something that found? / when she looking down

No waiting

I wake up smiling in the morning / I always get to hear the phone ring / it's always someone I want to talk to / we always do agree / it might be enough for you it's not enough for me / we will go out to see a movie / never a line we all get in free / we always know that it will be the best we've ever seen / it might be enough for you it's not enough for me / for dinner we'll have ten filet mignon / with fifteen bottles of Dom Perignon / strawberry cheesecake 12 miles wide half each for you and me / it might be enough for you it's not enough for me

Dr Nu

Dr Nu,I hate you

Dr NU, I hate you

Dr Nu, I hate you / I do I do I do etc.

I hate you so deeply / It's a special kind of feeling / that I keep inside

my beating heart for only you

(chorus)

spare me the complications / I want my medication / I'm about to lose my patients / I'm gonna take it out on you

I'm just an elephant

I'm just an elephant / you can bet it / I may not know that much but I won't forget it / It's just me / now as you can plainly see / as I'm walking through the jungle brush forever / don't be scared / don't be shy / though I may be big that I can't deny / step right up and you will see / there's really no mystery cause / (chorus) / I'm not the lion with the mighty mighty roar / rhinoceros beetle water buffalo or boar / the giraffe that dines in the tallest tree / the graceful antelope of the serenghetti / (chorus)

No Junkies in West Hills

If you go west young fan of the best / there's someplace that you should know / ask anybody there and they'll tell you so / there's no need to needle and plead / ask and you shall receive / all you have to do is just believe that there's / no junkies in west hills / no one lies / up in the skies / helicopters bounce and play / over the happy homes of wood and clay / and there's a parade down the main street / all the townsfolk have lined the way / see them there in the town square laughing as you hear them say

Wonderful Us

I used to worry / all the time / things got so blurry / I'd sit and whine

then there was you / then there was me too / that's all there was for me / and now I can't help but agree / it's a wonderful world / nobody knows but us / it's a wonderful world/nobody knows but us / we get so playful/playful and light / we get so happy / it's such a fright / what fools we are / what fools indeed / the result of a world that cuts so deep on two goons who can't remember how to bleed / (chorus)

SYMPOPHONY 1

I Own the World

I've got a car / it's the fastest car I've ever had / 135 and I feel like I'm not moving / I've got a girl/ t he kind I used to always want so bad / she thinks I know exactly what I'm doing / look at me / I've got it all sewn up / look at me / finally think I've got enough / I own the world etc. /

oh how I / how I used to be the angry boy / watching all the big wheels rolling over all my friends / soon to be everybody's favorite torture toy / used to think that's how the story really ends / wait and see / when that machine breaks down / look at me / I'm buying up this happy town / (chorus) look at me / you think I'm going down / look at me / all these flashing lights but I can't hear a sound

No love lost

There's going to be a bit of a fight but there's no love lost

didn't mean to do it but she did it allright / giving it the go but the going's no good / she says it can't last and he's knocking on wood /

and everyday's a different way that he can cut you down a notch / when he says eat your heart out / she says only if you watch / had a little bit / got enough rope now you're swingin all night /

her boyfriends drunk and Katy needs a ride / and you know if you run they'll have your hide / push the right buttons and she's user friendly / wish I could pretend that she's just pretending / try to find a little space between the boredom and the scotch / when he says eat you heart out she says only if you watch / had a little bit / got enough rope now your swingin all night / things are getting better with the folks back home/got their amex reapproved and a nice new place / now they don't fight and they don't sweat / cause all the breakables aren't paid for yet / and every day's a different way that they can cut you down a notch / when they say eat your heart out you say only if you watch / had a little bit / got enough rope now you're swingin all night / but there's no love lost

Disconnected

please excuse my barging in / I know that I was not expected / not that you were sorely missed / you didn't want anyone to see you like this / I tried to call but you were disconnected / no more fun for you / now that your dreams have been dissected / I'm not asking you to agree / you can put down the knife it's only me / I'm standing here but you're so disconnected / don't you know / don't you know / you've got nowhere to go / there's a line to love but you've been disconnected / never seems to get too bad when you forget what you had / there's a line to love but you've been disconnected / for all you friends out there there will be something new / someone's got to show them that special magic / you're going to disappear cause everyone forgot you / it's a dirty little job and you have been selected / you won't hear a word I say / can't take what you just give away / something's there but you're so disconnected / (chorus)
