I can wait another day until I call you
You’ve only got my heart on a string and everything a-flutter
But another lonely night might take forever
We’ve only got each other to blame
It’s all the same to me love
'Cause I know what I feel to be right
No more lonely nights
No more lonely nights
You’re my guiding light
Day or night I’m always there
You know the day destroys the night
Night divides the day
Tried to run, tried to hide
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side
Break on through to the other side, yeah
Don’t go breaking my heart
I couldn’t if I tried
Honey if I get restless
Baby you’re not that kind
Don’t go breaking my heart
You take the weight off me
Honey when you knock on my door
I gave you my key
If my friends should ask for me
Here at home is where I’ll be
There’s no one I care to see
I’m breakin’ in a brand new broken heart.
I woke up and I had a big idea
To buy a new soul at the start of every year
I paid up and it cost me pretty dear
Here’s a hymn to those that disappear
Processed, diluted
Virtually unrecognizable
I was lost there - No direction
A scattered void
No more, it’s over
I’m on to you, your evil game
The tables have turned
I am taking back my soul
It’s hard to see how the tables have turned
It’s hard to see how the people have learned
It’s hard to watch the past drizzling past
It’s hard to watch them picking the cast
And it stacks up badly that it never makes sense
You sense that sensation is who’s paying the rent
And she beckons to you with her fingers and lies
She says: “Can’t you slice the price of your paradise?”
Oh, almost paradise
We’re knockin’ on heaven’s door
Almost paradise
How could we ask for more?
I swear that I can see forever in your eyes
Paradise
So I’ve cheated and I’ve lied
Been the victim of foolish pride
And I’ve begged and I’ve crawled
And I’ve battled and bled for it all
Now I’ll savor the downfall of Paradise
I float through day and night life, well most of the time
Till I hung up my blues on a nail in your wall
It rained flowers when the music began
Love all around when the music is loud
Every day, nirvana
Always this way, yeah, yeah, yeah
I wish that every day, nirvana
Always this way
I keep your picture
Upon the wall
It hides a nasty stain that’s lying there
So don’t you ask me
To give it back
I know you know it doesn’t mean that much to me
I’m not in love, no no, it’s because
Can you hear it?
The sound of
Something burning
Something changing
On the merry-go-round
Tonight
The pictures on my wall
Are about to swing and fall
Love it all
Oh, the Merry-Go-Round broke down
And it made the darndest sound,
The lights went low, we both said “Oh!”
And the Merry-Go-Round went
"Um-pah-pah, um-pah-pah
Um-pah! Um-pah! Um-pah-pah-pah!’
Surfin’ bird
Bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb, aaah
Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa
Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-ooma-mow-mow
Papa-ooma-mow-mow
Some people call me the space cowboy
Some call me the gangster of love
Some people call me Maurice
'Cause I speak of the pompatus of love
On my own,
When I wander through this wonderland alone,
Never knowing my right foot from my left
My hat from my glove
I’m too misty, and too much in love.
I’m just too misty,
And too much
In love…
When I want rain, I get sunny weather
I’m just as blue as the sky
Since love is gone, can’t pull myself together
Guess I’ll hang my tears out to dry
Friends ask me out, and I tell them I’m busy
Must get a new alibi
I stay at home, and ask myself “Where is she?”
Guess I’ll hang my tears out to dry
Don’t know why there’s no sun up in the sky
Stormy weather
Since my man and I ain’t together
Keeps rainin’ all the time
Life is bare, gloom and mis’ry everywhere
Stormy weather
Just can’t get my poor self together
I’m weary all the time, the time
So weary all the time
If it keeps on rainin’, levee’s goin’ to break
If it keeps on rainin’, levee’s goin’ to break
When the levee breaks I’ll have no place to stay
Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan
Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan
It’s got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home
Oh well, oh well, oh well
Well, it’s water, water ev’rywhere
And not a drop to drink
So tell me now
Oh, what else can a poor fellow do
But sit right down and think
