They don’t know that I go running home when I fall down
They don’t know who picks me up when no one is around
I drop my sword and cry for just a while
'Cause deep inside this armour
The warrior is a child
Unafraid because his armour is the best
But even soldiers need a quiet place to rest
People say that I’m amazing
Never face retreat
But they don’t see the enemies
That lay me at His feet
But without him,
How would Hitler have condemned him at Labau?
Without him Caesar would have stood alone,
He’s the one who gives his body
As a weapon of the war,
And without him all this killing can’t go on.
He’s the Universal Soldier and he really is to blame,
His orders come from far away no more,
They come from here and there and you and me,
And brothers can’t you see,
This is not the way we put an end to war.
It’s always the old to lead us to the war
It’s always the young to fall
Now look at all we’ve won with the saber and the gun
Tell me is it worth it all
For I stole California from the Mexican land
Fought in the bloody Civil War
Yes I even killed my brothers
And so many others But I ain’t marchin’ anymore
For I marched to the battles of the German trench
In a war that was bound to end all wars
Oh I must have killed a million men
And now they want me back again
But I ain’t marchin’ anymore
I’m going back to the border
Where my affairs, my affairs ain’t abused
I can’t take any more bad water
Been poisoned from my head down to my shoes
Holy Moses I have been deceived
Holy Moses let us live in peace
Let us strive to find a way to make all hatred cease
There’s a man over there
What’s his colour I don’t care
He’s my brother let us live in peace
He’s my brother let us live in peace
He’s my brother let us live in peace
Now I’ve been happy lately, thinking about the good things to come
And I believe it could be, something good has begun
Oh I’ve been smiling lately, dreaming about the world as one
And I believe it could be, some day it’s going to come
Cause out on the edge of darkness, there rides a peace train
Oh peace train take this country, come take me home again
Now I’ve been smiling lately, thinking about the good things to come
And I believe it could be, something good has begun
Oh peace train sounding louder
Glide on the peace train
Come on now peace train
Yes, peace train holy roller
Everyone jump upon the peace train
Come on now peace train
Zion train is coming our way;
The Zion train is coming our way;
Oh, people, get on board! (you better get on board!)
Thank the Lord (praise Fari) -
I gotta catch a train, 'cause there is no other station;
Then you going in the same direction (ooh-ooh).
Zion’s train is coming our way;

Flash steps into the throne room
Dale is held by Emperor Ming
Ming gestures and orders surrender
Flash’s weapon starts to sing:
Eat hot photons, laser breath!
Elbow room!
Elbow room!
Got to, got to get us some elbow room:
It’s the Moon or bust,
In God we trust,
There’s a new land up there!
There’s a halo round the moon tonight
A swooning wave of endless light
Saying, “Sail beyond my cratered face
Into the depths of space”
Ascending now, I climb the stair
Jacob’s Ladder to the watcher’s lair
It was Gabriel that met me there
My guide outside the air
The halo of the moon
Ring around that burning pond
In the great beyond
The kingdom of eternal dawn
Calling out to me:
“come explore my mystery”
Says the halo of the moon
I look at you and suddenly, something in your eyes I see;
Soon begins bewitching me.
It’s that old devil moon that you stole from the skies.
It’s that old devil moon in your eyes.
You and you glance make this romance too hot to handle.
Stars in the night, blazing their light can’t hold a candle;
To your razzle-dazzle.
You’ve got me flyin’ high and wide, on a magic carpet ride;
Full of butterflies inside.
Wanna cry, wanna croon, wanna laugh like a loon.
It’s that old devil moon in your eyes.
Just when I think, I’m free as a dove.
Old devil moon, deep in your eyes, blinds me with love.
Give 'em the old razzle dazzle
Razzle Dazzle 'em
Give 'em an act with lots of flash in it
And the reaction will be passionate
Give 'em the old hocus pocus
Bead and feather 'em
How can they see with sequins in their eyes?
What if your hinges all are rusting?
What if, in fact, you’re just disgusting?
Razzle dazzle 'em
And they’ll never catch wise!
Fellow Texans, I am proudly standing here to humbly see.
I assure you, and I mean it- Now, who says I don’t speak out as plain as day?
And, fellow Texans, I’m for progress and the flag- long may it fly.
I’m a poor boy, come to greatness. So, it follows that I cannot tell a lie.
Ooh I love to dance a little sidestep, now they see me now they don’t-
I’ve come and gone and, ooh I love to sweep around the wide step,
cut a little swathe and lead the people on.
Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today
To get through this thing called “life”
Electric word, life
It means forever and that’s a mighty long time
But I’m here to tell you
There’s something else,
The afterworld
A world of never ending happiness
You can always see the sun, day or night
So when you call up that shrink in Beverly Hills
You know the one, Dr. Everything’ll-Be-Alright
Instead of asking him how much of your time is left
Ask him how much of your mind, baby
Cause in this life
Things are much harder than in the afterworld
In this life,
You’re on your own
And if the elevator tries to bring you down
Go crazy
We’ll try to make up your mind
Now you’re on you’re own
Yeah, don’t leave me behind
Now you’re on you’re own
There’s a new moon rising on the other side
The other side of you
Talk to yourself and someone else
What you tryin’ to do?
Look what you’re doing
I’m feelin’ blue and lonely.
Would it be too much,
To ask of you–
What you’re doing…to me?
I’m just a lonely boy
Lonely and blue
I’m all alone
With nothin’ to do
I’ve got everything
You could think of
But all I want
Is someone to love
Someone, yes, someone to love
Someone to kiss
Someone to hold
At a moment like this
I feel so bad I got a worried mind
I’m so lonesome all the time
Since I left my baby behind
On Blue Bayou
Saving nickles, saving dimes
Working 'til the sun don’t shine
Looking forward to happier times
On Blue Bayou
I’m going back someday
Come what may
To Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine
And the world is mine
On Blue Bayou
Where those fishing boats
With their sails afloat
If I could only see
That familiar sunrise
Through sleepy eyes
How happy I’d be
Gonna see my baby again
Gonna be with some of my friends
Maybe I’ll feel better again
On Blue Bayou
Work and work
Well those cars never seem to stop coming
Work and work
Keep those lines and machines humming
Work and work
My fingers to the bone
Work and work
Just can’t wait till it’s time to go home
Hey! Get your car wash today
