holy-
Holy I'd like to be when it's my bedtime will I see
Holy never out of reach I heard that demons don't hit the beach
so you will KNow where to find me
That holy breeze is said to hit all the deadheads
Gimme a cool holy name and I will sing it everyday
Holy ghost in a sheet
when it gets lifted will we see what a pretty ghost she can be
We'll bring our gear to the holy land and we can be the best babylon band

Crosseyed Beautiful Youngunz-

I felt this target you say you never held a whip
But it looks so cool in your grip
ah now I could never live without you that's what you'd try to send them
an unwritten script
Live through this no one showed you the clips
And no one showed me where I slipped
oh so now the world's got me surrounded
that's what you'd like to send them
faulty evidence
Some recent transmissions careening through towns and friends
oh so here's where our spy business ends
oh cuz I really liked to love ya don't you pretend we were wrong
and we can find a place to stand

Paul Revere-
Paul Revere! never thought you'd trot from the page to the history-bot
at the twin towers the robot looked scared he said "Paul Revere!"
Paul Revere! your midnight ride was on my birthday I said with some pride
but would I wake em up where they might be lying? Paul Revere!
Paul Revere! heard your horse was fast I bet at the track we could make some cash
or put him in the zoo with all the real heroes Paul Revere!
Paul Revere! who's coming now are they visible through the thick smoke cloud
I heard their faces change from town to town Paul Revere!

Baby Shambles -

city like a prison makes my baby go no
life's little beatings make her say no
ah when she met me I lie like a movie screen and she go no
I was living just to crawl away you should seen me in those salad days
you shoulda heared what my baby said
all in a row now make my baby go no
oh anyway you go make her say no
I could just climb inside those lower east side eyes
make her say no
I was living just like a gutter tramp you should of seen the sorry state I'm in

Konny and Jim-

Foreign legions all the cost to send for me now to tend to you now
I held up from the shots so send for me now to tend to you now
I can hear you breathing I want your breath I want to travel far
and if I see you leaving I want to leave too I'll help you pack the car
Because I know all the carriages approaching will melt under your star
Inna Gadda Davida send for me now to tend to you now
I will never call your bluff I'll send for you now to tend to me now
I can see you floating don't ever come down I love your shadow
I'll store your paintings in all my blankets I'll never let them go
Because the colors burn so bright they can melt all of the stuff
Carry you up on my back send for me now to tend to me now
To the million dollar bash I'll send for you now to tend to me now
With champagne exploding in celebration we can dance all night
See our faces glowing kill the lights because they burn so bright
and in this instant I will vow to never let your beauty out my sight

ALL PARTS OF ME

top of the holly jolly my holy collar is falling off
part of the incantation a love invasion of many parts
all parts of me love you in your leotard
call off my intuition my inhibition is coin dry
come and lay down with monsters like I have and see why
all parts of me all lined up in the color bar
all parts of me love you in your leotard

CLEANING MAN

I was the cleaning man
I was the cleaning man
listen to the radio play cowgirl in the sand
When I was the cleaning man
I was the cleaning man
after everyone had come to talk and drink and dance
I could see the evening's scenes reflected in the cans
the echoes of the empty room returned with lonliness
and in the darkness of the night I took the devil's hand
when I was the cleaning man
I was Death's hand
I was heroin
to somebody I shouldn't have been
I was heroin!
I was Death's hand!
I was the thief who stole all those women and men
I stood at the funerals of relatives and friends
and like King Midas I wished that my greed and curse would end
when I was the cleaning man

Don't Worry
waiting for the funeral and it's march
you been gallantly holding the torch
don't you worry baby it means so much
to everyone in contact with your touch
you're a smiling saint to all of us
don't give up
bet your bottom dollar you get paid
with every sand dollar they can make
don't you worry baby you just wait
you can hit the jackpot on these stakes
in their book theres some mistake
beat em at their game
Here they come now shaking their tin cans
They'll take your handouts and then they'll take your hands
don't you worry baby you're the brand
that won't be sold by any quick scheme scam
wham! you're a priceless gem
til the end

Peace

gimme a spot where I can fall down
gimme a plot in a little town
gimme a carving on the side of a tree it's all the proof I'm gonna need
we get measured by the size of our feat
so dig your hole and dig it deep
gimme a present that releases me
gimme a bed where I can sleep
gimme a road where I can run we'll go somewhere where the fighting's done
we get judged by what we achieve
so break your back or up and leave
gimme a job in a little store
gimme some knowledge I didn't know
gimme four seasons I can feel gimme some friendships that are real
we get judged by what we achieve
so break your back or up and leave
gimme a carving on the side of a tree it's all the proof I'm gonna need
Coconut Flakes
grab some grapes and leaves man you can never tell
when you'll have to change your face and hide your trophies well
coming down the mountain going to your home
the village has evacuated now you gotta roam
your feet could start to moan
and your eyes don't see too clear
the darkest dreams could come and shake your faith to steer
remember the sun
all from memory
close your eyes and run circles round it's enemies
remember the sun before you awake
remember all the reasons and bake it into your cake
then we'll all come over bring the coconut flakes
we're gonna get stoned with you laugh at your mistakes
I know it's been hard to take
and I know you wanna run
but just try to stay in one place and have a little fun
I know it's been hard to take
and I know you wanna run
but just try to stay in one place and dance before it's done
da da da da da da

BONNIE AND CLYDE
I'd like to hear a bassline baby that'll rumble underneath
all my sick suspicions but won't rattle my teeth
I'd like to get your number baby but I'm someone else inside
there is superstition written on the wall tonight
no one gets out alive
five to one one to five
unless you're Bonnie and Clyde
I'd like to capture starlite baby and put it in a vase
I could send you signals if I can't see your face
cuz I'm sailing on the ocean now just to see some of the world
when I float and dream at night I can still see you twirl
you are every girl
I hope that my ship don't burn
when will I ever learn
(repeat verse one)
