2.The Vivian Girls
The vivian girls are the chosen ones
The vivian girls are the chosen ones
The vivian girls are the chosen ones
The vivian girls are the chosen ones
The chosen ones
Did you see them fly?
Yes it was up, over the town
Way up in the sky?
Toppling down
Toppling down
Toppling down
Toppling down
The vivian girls are the chosen ones
The vivian girls are the chosen ones
The vivian girls are the chosen ones
The vivian girls are the chosen ones
The chosen ones
Where did they come down?
Not far away, down by the bay
Was it from his touch?
No one can say
No one can say
No one can say
No one can say
The vivian girls are the chosen ones
The vivian girls are the chosen ones
The vivian girls are the chosen ones
The vivian girls are the chosen ones
The chosen ones
Standing on pedestals out in the sun
The melting continues, it's barely begun
Nobody knows what will happen one day
The ice 'round the vivian girls melts away
3.All In Good Time
Paint a picture, let it dry
Check your thoughts and speak now of us
Look how you worry, pacing all around the place
Feel now the intuition in the air
It is a penny for your thoughts my boy
Tell me all that you know
You curious colorful creature, won't you show
From day to day
When you live and you wake
The ... of tawdry ...
Like a fatal mistake
Indecision is a razor
All in good time we throw our options out the window
All in good time we go driving off the road
Pain and fury, tension ...
Balance, glory, triumph and pain
... the poetry of memory
You know that everything we had was real
Drifting away and still gaining speed
It is a quarter for your dream old man
Knowing all that you know
... the place the world has left you
Fighting for your hopes that fade away
4.Voodoo Vengeance
Well she was tired and 22
Lost in this swamp
Laughing ... cheatin' shirt
What's that she's got?
Got me a rabbit for supper
I'm making chicken up
Don't touch my gun
I sip ground glass
Voodoo vengeance
Voodoo death
Squeakin' rats they run from the voodoo house
Trace little curlicues (track the little cutie-coo? -ec version)
All across the bayou
They'll put a lot of men in prison
For the things i want to do
I sprinkle rabbit guts all over her face
Stomp on it with my feet
Better give me what's mine or i'll take it
Voodoo vengeance
Voodoo death
Squeakin' rats they run from the voodoo house
Take a little brown rice
Add a little water
Threw in some ground glass, that was her vengeance
Now nobody can hear me (can crack ...)
I'm lost in the swamp
Naked in my bed
All covered in blood
Voodoo vengeance
Voodoo death
Squeakin' rats they run from the voodoo house
5.Taste Of Tendon
I was cross-eyed, stoned and painless
My pulse was up my eyes were red
My visions, situations, feelings
Hung on my lips and burned me up
And 18 hours spent asleep
Could not help me from thinking that
I had somehow managed to fool myself
I had missed the point while puttin' 'em back
I can't help from thinking
As my heart keeps beating
Of what i'd love to do
To strip the flesh that hides these bones
Bare my soul without a sound
Burn my brain, lay waste to fear
Though i won't live that many years
And i can't shed that many tears
Claustrophobic, paranoid
Laughing at my routine cares
The charade of my brilliant life
Had drawn a crowd these last few years
As i entertain my audience,
The stage was torn by all i knew
Who took me to the moon above
Wrapped my soul in linen cloth
I can't help from thinking
As my heart keeps beating
If i was jesus christ
And all the things i'd love to know
Why i feel the way i do,
And what it means to be alive
And make yourself a sacrifice
To never have to live a lie
You take yourself so seriously
You're dressed in black but your soul is green
You've got an understanding of the world
That's only based on what you've seen
And if you'd just admit to yourself
That it's not such an awful place
The grim facade that hides your mind
May yet reveal a smiling face
I can't help from thinking
As my heart keeps beating
Of what i'd love to do
Locked away just me and you
If you can only see me through
And see what we could make it to
Forget the things that need no proof
And see the world with eyes of fools
6.Trapped
Trapped
A game of roulette
A marble and wheel
Revolver and steel
While down on his luck
A grimacing drunk
He spins on his axis
On top of the table
Espousing his views
... familiar
Removed it may come to you
How your contempt is renewed
The train of thought running here
Makes me see all too clear
How i'm like everyone i can remember i knew
Trapped
Supply and demand
Mathematics and facts
Computing revealed
The secret's concealed
Displaced of its day
The weight of an age
A hideous scheme
Horizons of steel
Walking on tightropes
They're lost in my neighborhood
Long streets i know very well
Wandering aimlessly, wavering endlessly
Leaving today for the next town that gets in the way
Trapped
By fear in my voice
I struggle to speak
I struggle to reach
That tone in your voice
The onset of fear
It spins like the world
As is everything near
Just from breathing the air
Trapped by my point of view
Locked in a waiting room where we are smothered desire
Lost in a notebook who's heartstrings sing out to you
Coming to terms with the slow spiteful passing of years
7.The Evidence You Hide
Lost in a paperback rain
Picking through books that you won't read again
Keeping your promises vague
Lost in the crowd in the circus parade
Keeping your polaroids dry
Delirious fevers burn night after night
The cryptic malaise that you're in
The art that may come of it i'd recommend
To focus attention on books you might write
Ripped off from diaries, kept out of sight
The evidence you hide
Keeping your bed warm at night
It's not an illusion it glows very bright
With the young coal the fire is fed
Who you keep with you is best left unsaid
On finding particular friends
Remember that all moral fiber will bend
To put them in letters you burn as you write
Seen in reflections and not with your eyes
Cultivating lies
8.Unexplained Murders
Don't you know i'm not the kind that's that easy
9.The Beach Of Deception
Swell surging forwards
Eroding the land
A test of your patience
A test of your hands
The presence of angels
A pall of thick smoke
On this table spill memories
Deceptions and jokes
Down on this beach
From the irish sea
The lusitanian
Goes ...
Memories come back to you
From faces on walls
The faces of friends
That might have lied to us all
Visions of yesterday
Go back through the years
Back to creation
With the exception of fear
Down on this beach
From the cold north sea
The ghosts of ... land
Sing out to me
Down on this beach
From the baltic sea
We will dance on islands
Like we are diseased
Down on the sand will come a thought that will mark
A place in your conscience, a scratch in your heart
Hope here is random, survival is sure
Your trascendence expected, so be reassured
10.Broadcast At Midday
Laughter on his breath
The smell of fish clandestine hits
The thief he will aspire
To take the piece that he desires
Contempt for the rest
Know his past and second guess
Still it's on his shirt
The telltale signs with which he flirts
And it's on the radio today
Ringing in your ears it's in the way
He won't be coming out today
From the void into the fray
From a broken egg the storm is born today
Eyes blind with rage
The deep caress of hell to pay
She is all the world to all of me
She is fascination clandestine
She is burning now
Brilliant flames from off the bow
He is on the deck
Sailing towards untouched points west
She will return
Deep within our veins
We'll add it to our tab and wash away
She is now omnipotent to me
Everywhere in all i think and see
And it's on the radio today
Ringing in your ears it's in the way
I wonder what she'd say
But her face is just a memory
And she hasn't got the new york times to read
If may could see today
If may could speak today
I know just what she's say
To lots of folks you may be a saint
But a death threat still makes you feel faint
If may could speak today
But the worms just eat away
What may was yesterday
