Title: Re: Can anyone confirm the lyrics? Post by Nikolita on Aug 5th, 2004, 8:09pm TRACK ONE: PILGRIM A little blood and vomit on the car seat And the tooth is sitting in my lap Brother if you’re hungry but not wounded Then it’s time to stop and check the map Pilgrim, where’s your head at Are you paying the birds to sing Well it won’t work on the true path Where the rich are growing wings If the ancient wisdom came in bottles I would tell my tarot where to go But I don’t know who would do the dishes Cause I’d be laying wasted in the road Pilgrim where’s your head at Are you paying the birds to sing Meet me on the true path I’ll be dizzy from growing wings My tears! My tears! My kicking up the love dirt I feel it’s the only way Pilgrim, what’s you looking at me for? My disaster has come and gone Left me, by the roadside With my shadow and one more song Pilgrim, what’s you looking at me for? My disaster has come and gone Left me, by the roadside With my shadow and one more song. |

Title: Re: Can anyone confirm the lyrics? Post by Nikolita on Aug 5th, 2004, 8:09pm TRACK TWO: LUCKY ME Science wears a new suit to his coffee, toast and eggs But he has to skip the stairs now, because of two broken legs Whine, whine, I cannot climb, every time’s the same I’d be more inclined to help him if he could remember my name And he was sad, And he was sorry Let it all out, what are you running for? This is your chance, be ready. I’m taking my seat… Oh! Oh! Lucky Me! Faith can’t fill the dancehall because her powers have declined But at the beauty pageant she will always take the prize Light! Light! Easter White! Roll her in the dirt. When it comes time for kneeling she’ll say You go first. And he was sad, And he was sorry Let it all out, what are you running for? This is your chance, be ready. I’m taking my seat… Oh! Oh! Lucky Me! The wise man once tried to tell me how to sugar coat the grave But the game is for the adults and I don’t know how to play Oh! Oh! Where will I go? Toss me out to sea? When the jar’s all out of candy don’t come blaming me. And he was sad, And he was sorry Let it all out, what are you running for? This is your chance, be ready. I’m taking my seat… Oh! Oh! Lucky Me! Oh you’re sad, and you’re sorry Let it all out, what are you running for? Tell the whole world, we’re waiting I’m taking my seat… Oh! Oh! Lucky Me! |

Post by Nikolita on Aug 5th, 2004, 8:10pm TRACK THREE: MARY She’s looking out and out to a galaxy A fateful boat trip across a Northern Sea On a frosty window she writes her name Oh daughter, this is how she became Mary, go ahead and have your little baby Mary, toughest of the tough but still a lady Oh I’ve all the courage I’ll ever need I wax poetic on my enemies The century is raging, but so are we No matter what I know we’ve got a symphony called Mary, go ahead and have your little baby Mary, toughest of the tough but still a lady Out of dark days, stay up airplane Take my last name, stay up airplane Go ahead and have your little baby Mary, toughest of the tough but still a lady Mary, toughest of the tough |

Title: Re: Can anyone confirm the lyrics? Post by Nikolita on Aug 5th, 2004, 8:10pm TRACK FIVE: DAY ONE I put my head back where it belongs Up there in the clouds I’m spreading love like a terrorist now And oh what a morning Oh what a day to be alive Sweet hope is glowing in your glorious eyes Pushing, baby real enough I bet you think that you’re so tough But all you’ll beat won’t be nothing at all Day One! Day One! Day One! Day One! After Boy Wonder, After the dream came out of the minds Busboys and bankers wiping their eyes Be still my lion heart! A revolution ready to pounce The passioneers up and out of the house Beauty faked a heart attack Now I feel it coming back But all you’ll beat won’t be nothing at all Day One! Day One! Day One! Day One! |

Title: Re: Can anyone confirm the lyrics? Post by Nikolita on Aug 5th, 2004, 8:11pm TRACK SIX: OUT IN THE PARK Don’t you know what time it is It’s the new time All disciples gathering by the boats But your revolution is chasing its tail You love to take the wind out of my sail But not this time In between commercial breaks It’s a new war Men with books have run away to the coast All the ladies quit calling them back And starting plotting a counter attack You foolish animals! She’s out in the park Conducting the birds Trying to remember which bicycle’s hers Filling her pockets with handfuls of dirt It’s amazing Out in the park. Out in the park. For Sale: Forgetfulness at a new price Though I saw it advertised on tv But all the children were busy outside Building sandcastles skyscraper high You foolish animals! She’s out in the park Conducting the birds Trying to remember which bicycle’s hers Filling her pockets with handfuls of dirt It’s amazing Out in the park. Out in the park. Out in the park by way of the dark The summer sun will be ours Out in the park, fight the war What are your hearts and your wheelbarrows for? Lean on me babe, I don’t keep score Out in the park. Out in the park. |

Post by Nikolita on Aug 5th, 2004, 8:12pm TRACK SEVEN: VERTIGO The heavens dropped a bag or red and white lights Pearls that keep the highway bright And it feels like being born but driving The moon hangs a dangerous height Terrible calm, Terrible cold This dream I have is gold Easier now, a place to go Vertigo The faces dropped like flies Then memory fades into the rushing road below And I can take this light any night Then just try to tell me no Terrible calm, terrible cold This dream I have is gold Easier now, a place to go Vertigo I am full of love and consequence Mercy for the sky of gold The beauty of the cars’ electric light The speed with which their destinies grow Terrible calm, terrible joy This dream I have is gold Easier now, a place to go Vertigo |

Title: Re: Can anyone confirm the lyrics? Post by Nikolita on Aug 5th, 2004, 8:12pm TRACK EIGHT: WHEN ANOTHER MIDNIGHT When another midnight comes to rest On the cheek of our sleeplessness All crusaders will wake and dress Pull their flags from their pillowcases You could hear of Eden hold its breath On this, the anniversary, of Wonder’s death Oh ho! An occasion, what a terrible mess! Or a time for a new dress How to live a noble life In this, the age of insanity Where every promise faces turn and white It’s the look, the look of, can it be? It’s shock, it’s horror, it’s despair It’s Socrates weeping in a wheelchair Teacher drooling unaware Where are my students? Where, oh where!? Poet to poet, nun to nun I’ve met a distance that I have to run Man with madness must come undone I’m going down a smoking gun! All the commuters will hear our words And hide in garages like frightened birds But you can’t stop the moaning of the Earth And the midnight crackling of my nerve! Just another midnight falling… Come out! Come out! Angels come out! It’s just the sound of another midnight falling Come out! Come out at the end of the world! It’s just the sound of another midnight falling Come out! Come out! The time is now! It’s just the sound of another midnight falling Oh! Another midnight! |

Title: Re: Can anyone confirm the lyrics? Post by Nikolita on Aug 5th, 2004, 8:13pm TRACK NINE: THE SCORE Oh I rented a motorbike And all night I had the fear But onward Oh how the terrifying choice was clear, clear! So white, the moon was a wicked sight His cruel wife had cut off an ear And the fog cleared I heard the voices of a brilliant cheer This time, the pleasure's all mine I've got your number, I know the score I'd be a hopeless romantic But for the fortune I made in gold My heart bent, toward the circus tent A man in red beckoned me near In his wild eyes I saw the faces of a million cheer, oh cheer! Oh he said - This time, the pleasure's all mine I've got your number, I know the score And you went, you hopeless romantics You’ll wipe the highway I paved in gold In his wild eyes Oh how the terrifying choice was clear, clear! This time, the pleasure's all mine I've got your number, I know the score I'd be a hopeless romantic But, for the fortune I made in gold The fortune I made in gold. |

Post by Nikolita on Aug 5th, 2004, 8:13pm TRACK TEN: YOUR WISH IS MY WISH In my mindstorm I did carry you Through the briars of disbelief Through the woods of lethargy Through a groaning dark so deep I thought I died In the fountain I did cool our feet Under red and rainless skies Singing ragged lullabies Through the grief all advertised In neon lights Baby - your wish is my wish And I have only this From now on Baby - your wish is my wish Keep on running to the door I heard Beauty crying in her sleep So I bent for one more kiss And her tears will turn and twist We make bliss to end all bliss And all time Baby - your wish is my wish And I have only this From now on Baby - your wish is my wish Keep on running to the door Running to the door Keep on running to the door I heard Beauty crying in her sleep |

Post by Nikolita on Aug 5th, 2004, 8:14pm TRACK ELEVEN: WAKE UP Wake up, wake up You don’t want to sleep through this Night has fallen, all the stars are coming out Oh the sky’s lolling by like The sweet little light of mine Come out, come out It’s not like we’re strangers here No while I’m here waiting The sun’s coming out, all alone The aid of gold is like That sweet little light of mine Of mine, of mine. |
