All Things To all Men

This suit has served you well
Shed it like dead skin (lose it again and again)
Spray so you don't repel
Wear many faces (King of chameleon)
Smile, you adjust to fit, full of yes words (second guess words)
You swivel on a pin, bend with the weather
Pitch roll 'n gambling
In your dreams you reach higher to touch the high wire
Another line, another queue. Another jam in front of you
When you're all things to all men.
All modes, electric light
You toggle easy (switchin' day to night)
Echo elastic, stretching forever (ever repeating)
Shape shifter, bull talking, point drifter
Move the posts, dance the fence
No lines drawn, nothing to lean against
In you're dreams, you aspire
The whole world is your desire
You lock horns and make blame
It's hard work for loose change
When you're all things to all men
Why's it not working, why's it not working?
Why I am not getting further, faster?
Tell me
Everything I've tried, everything I've tried
They won't give it to me, they don't even know me
"It can't be that hard to get somewhere, son. You just change your shirt
If that's the way you feel. Can't be that hard to make an impression"
In your dreams you reach higher to touch the high wire
Another line, another queue, another jam in front of you
When you're all things to all men
In you're dreams, you aspire
The whole world is your desire
You lock horns and make blame
It's hard work for loose change
When you're all things to all men

Drop Beatz Not Bombs
05:57
|

|
You're singing protest songs
Drop Beatz, not bombs
The path to true freedom
But They're still waging war and not love.
Hippy kid
All of your Hendrix, Shakespeare and Bill Hicks, Peel and 'Teenage Kicks'
On the airwaves
Pray, 'Oh, come away, come away now'
God forbid
They're out in their desert fields making poppies grow, tending them in the sunlight
Oh, come away. Past the trees, into the clouds
Fly with me
Follow me away then. I'm waiting for you.
You're singing protest songs
Drop Beatz, not bombs
And the world will live as one
Yes, i'd say you're a dreamer. Bless you
Peacenick
For famine, you take the stage
White flags in outrage
This time we turn the page but they're still dropping bombs
in YOUR name.
How is it?
The answer, my friends to the four winds blown
Drowned in the sound of our silence
Oh, come away, down to the sea
Over the ocean, sail with me
Sail with me and I will, I will be here
I'm here waiting. I'm waiting for you
Come in, you've got the invitation
You searching? We're in communication
We'd like an explanation
Oh, come away. Past the trees, into the sky
I will be here
Awaiting
Away then
Oh, come away, down to the sea
Over the ocean, sail with me
Sail with me and I will, I will be here
Always waiting.
I'll be waiting for you

Free Thinking Mind
03:40
|
|||
|
It's everything, it means everything
Can be anything but it means nothing
I got time to talk, no time to talk
I tried the walk but everyone was running
i do what I'm told and my soul is sold
I am cajoled and the man is watching
Yeah
Got so much to learn, too much to learn but the more I learn
The less I seem to know
Free, as in free,
Never to be the judge or to be judged
To be obeyed or to obey
Pusher or pushed, in the wrong or in the right
Only in my free thinking mind
How free am I in my FREE THINKING MIND?
Elevate into my state of mind
It's not making sense when it's making sense
But in my present tense
It just feels like nonsense
I have the time if you've got the time
Do you think it's time to collect my new age pension?
Well?
I slave for you and you slave for me
But my reality?
Master is servant
In my mind's eye I see the light
A blinding light to a prisoner of conscience
Free, as in free,
Never to be the judge or to be judged
To be obeyed or to obey
Pusher or pushed, in the wrong or in the right
Only in my free thinking mind
How free am I in my FREE THINKING MIND?
Elevate into my state of mind

Gods In The Making
04:23
|

|
Remember them?
Where can they be now?
Whatever happened to 'Whatshisname'?
Do you remember them?
And what was that song they sang?
I hear he was working on a building site, or a burger chain
Heard he was doing alright, he's learning how to DJ!
And they said we were Gods in the making
We were the next big thing
They said we were bound for glory
We're really happening
And they said, 'One of the greatest' with every word we sing
Well, all hail now to gods in the making
Onto the next big thing
No, they never come back
Yeah, they were massive
Every song made it into the ten
And they were laughing all the way to the bank and back again
I heard he was selling homes, in a squat or on the dole
Made a record of his own while looking after her baby
And they said we were Gods in the making
We were the next big thing
They said we were bound for glory
We're really happening
And they said, 'One of the greatest' with every word we sing
Well, all hail now to gods in the making
Onto the next big thing
If you want it, it's there...

I'll Be Your Dog
04:47

I'll be your dog
I'll be your dog
Put me on a leash, take me for a walk
I'll be your dog
Don't make me beg
Don't make me beg
I'm faithful and kind, only you on my mind
But don't make me beg
You can lead me and I'll follow
You can lead me and I'll follow
Every night, I'm down on my knees
Every night, I just wanna please
Every night, when you turn to leave
You hurt me, babe
Don't hurt me, babe
I'll be your dog
I'll be your dog
Put me on a leash, take me for a walk
I'll be your dog
Going out of my head
Out of my head
Here, with a bone on the bed
All alone
Going out of my head
You can lead me and I'll follow
You can lead me and I'll follow you
Every night, under the moon
Every night, I howl like a wolf
Every night, in hunger I cry
Don't leave me, babe
Don't leave me, babe
I want you, only you
Every night, I'm down on my knees
Every night, you do as you please
Every night, when you turn to leave
You hurt me, babe
Don't hurt me, babe
Every night, under the moon
Every night, I howl like a wolf
Every night, in hunger I cry
Don't leave me, babe
Don't leave me, babe

Into The Fray
05:09
|

|
Back into the fray
Feels like I've never been away
Back into the fray
What a beautiful day
I barrelled over falls
Washed up, underwhelmed by it all
Turned from everyone
A FUBAR northern soul
Hello beautiful
You're gorgeous
Im watching you, baby
Walk on by
Hello beautiful
It's more than us
Imagine it
Together, getting high
Back into the fray
Feels like I should never have gone away
Welcome to the fray
How I'm feeling it
Searching happiness
Finding it in the chaos and the mess
No finer temptress
For a FUBAR northern soul
Hello beautiful
You're gorgeous
We love you, baby
Walk on by
Hello beautiful
It's more than us
Imagine it
Together, getting high

Sleepyhead

Listen, you don't listen
You won't listen, you just don't
Sleepy head, sleepy head
Get out your bed, Sleepy head
Break your slumber, sleepy head
Sleepy head. Get out your bed
You lazy so and so
Wake up
I can tell you've been dreaming
Long into the night
Deaf to the loudest cries
Dead to the world outside
Arise to the light
Wake up
Into the light, Step into the light
You don't have to be afraid
Come past the barricade
Wake up, you'll be amazed
You'll be ok
Wake up into the light
Step into the light
Come on, it's time to go
wake up
I can tell you've been dreaming
Long into the night
Deaf to the loudest cries
Dead to the world outside
Arise to the light
Wake up
Into the light

There Is Only Now

That's the sound. that's the sound
That's the sound of the waves
Rolling in, rolling in
Covers you, covers me
That's the sun, that's sun
That's the sun and the moon
That's the sun, that's sun
And it's setting for you
There is only now
There is only this moment in time
This is all we have
There is only this moment in time
This moment in time
This is life, this is life
This is life, this is death
This is North, this is south
Here is east and this is the west
This is love, this is love
This is love and this is hate
There is God, there is not
But this is great
There is only now
There is only this instant in time
This is all we have
There is only this
There is only now
There is only this fleeting moment in time
Meet me in the here and now
'Cos there is only this

U Make Me...

It's a tricky situation
Love can come and love can pass you by
Can't afford no hesitation
'Cos when it goes, you ask yourself ,'Why?'
It's not too late
You think they still love you
Love will conquer all
You think they still need you
Don't let it pass you by
You make me high
You make me cry
Light up my life
You can't walk away
I need you to stay
Know that I'm not over you
There's no meaning without reason
You say goodbye, You'll blow my mind
Can't imagine life without you
You are my joy, my dreams, my high
It's not too late
You think they still love you
Love will conquer all
You think they still need you
Don't let it pass you by
You make me high
You make me smile
Light up my life, oh you
You can't walk away
I need you to stay
Know that I'm not over you
Don't let it pass you by

We Are Fans

So many questions float on the air
Can you imagine what goes on there?
Clever equations describing verse
Infinite answers
A million firsts
We are fans
Putty in your hands
We are fans
When we come upon you
We are fans
In step to your dance
We are fans
Pondering over lights in the sky
Making you wonder with the eyes of a child
There are more stars than there are of us
The faith of our fathers
Lost in the universe
We are fans
Putty in your hands
We are fans
When we come upon you
We are fans
In step to your dance
We are fans
So in awe of you
