Where’s the batteries? Where’s the batteries?
Sitting silent and empty
Wish I could breathe life
In my friend who’s terribly still
Where’s the batteries? Where’s the batteries?
Sitting silent and empty
Wish I could breathe life
In my friend who’s terribly still
In the still of the night
I hear the wolf howl, honey
Sniffing around your door
In the still of the night
I feel my heart beating heavy
Telling me I gotta have more
Suspicion yourself, suspicion yourself, don’t get caught
Suspicion yourself, suspicion yourself, let us out
Wilder, lower, wolves
Here’s a house to put wolves out the door
In a corner garden, wilder, lower, wolves
House in order
Will I dream of good times?
Only love in our minds
Will I dream of making love?
Always knew that it was enough
She’s gone to live in memory’s garden
She’s gone to live in memory’s garden
As you look into the trees
You can look but you don’t see
The flowers seem to tease you at the garden.
Everybody’s there, but you don’t seem to care
What’s it with you man, and this garden?
I went to a garden party to reminisce with my old friends
A chance to share old memories and play our songs again
When i got to the garden party, they all knew my name
No one recognized me, i didn’t look the same
But it’s all right now, i learned my lesson well.
You see, ya can’t please everyone, so ya got to please yourself
Where are the wolves, the underwater moon
The elvenpath, the haven of youth
Lagoons of the starlit sea
Have I felt enough for one man`s deed?
Or is it time to challenge the Ancient of Days
And let the virgin conceive
All the tales are told
All the orchids gone
All the tales are told
All the orchids gone
Lost in my own world
Now I care for dead gardens
Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you’re the queen of the underground
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won’t forget to put roses on your grave
The movie wasn’t so hot
It didn’t have much of a plot
We fell asleep, our goose is cooked
Our reputation is shot
Wake up, little Susie
Wake up, little Susie
Well, what are we gonna tell your Ma-ma
What are we gonna tell your Pa?
What are we gonna tell our friends
When they say, “Ooh la la!”
Suzy you were such a sweetie
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Once you were my one & only
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Blew your mind on too much Kool-Aid
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Took my stash & left me lonely
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Gave you the love you never knew, girl
Didn’t I do it baby, didn’t I do it baby?
I’ve tried so many times and that’s no lie
It seems to make you laugh each time I cry
Didn’t I blow your mind this time, didn’t I?
Didn’t I blow your mind this time, didn’t I?
Listen
You light my fire {You light my fire}
I feel alive with you, baby { I feel alive}
You blow my mind {You blow my mind}
I’m satisfied {I’m satisfied}
The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind
So thank you for writing the best songs.
Thank you for righting a few wrongs.
You’re a savage gift on a wayward bus,
But you stepped down and you sang to us.
And get you down to the harbor now.
Most of the sour grapes are gone from the bough.
Ghosts of Johanna will visit you there,
And the winds of the old days will blow through your hair.
The mile went on forever, the minutes turned to days
Could I have been misguided by the mystic’s ways?
The moment lasts forever, at least it does for me
Caught between what happened and what could never be
And the road goes on, seeming ever longer on the Way to Mandalay
And the road goes on, forever will I wander on the Way to Mandalay
I took the cannonball down to the ocean
Across the desert from the sea to shining sea
I rode a ladder that climbed across the nation
Fifty million feet of earth between the buried and me
Full moon is rising
The sky is black
I heed your call I’m coming back
The road is straight cast
Wind’s in my eyes
The engine roars between my thighs
From desert plains I bring you love
Moonchild
And I’m waiting, and I’m raging,
And I’m waiting, and I’m raging,
And a white moon falls, a black moon calls,
Waiting to defy the One
Moonchild (lower me down)
And if I ever lose my hands, lose my plough, lose my land,
Oh if I ever lose my hands, Oh if I won’t have to work no more.
And if I ever lose my eyes, if my colors all run dry,
Yes if I ever lose my eyes, Oh if I won’t have to cry no more.
Oh, I’m bein’ followed by a moonshadow, moon shadow, moonshadow—
Leapin and hoppin’ on a moonshadow, moonshadow, moonshadow—
Well, it’s a marvelous night for a moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
'Neath the cover of October skies.
