And She Was

And she was lying in the grass

And she could hear the highway breathing

And she could see a nearby factory

She's making sure she is not dreaming

See the lights of a neighbor's house

Now she's starting to rise

Take a minute to concentrate

And she opens up her eyes

The world was moving and she was right there with it (and she was)

The world was moving she was floating above it (and she was) and she was

And she was drifting through the backyard

And she was taking off her dress

And she was moving very slowly

Rising up above the earth

Moving into the universe

Drifting this way and that

Not touching ground at all

Up above the yard

CHORUS

She was glad about it... no doubt about it

She isn't sure where she's gone

No time to think about what to tell them

No time to think about what she's done

And she was

And she was looking at herself

And things were looking like a movie

She had a pleasant elevation

She's moving out in all directions

CHORUS

Joining the world of missing persons (and she was)

Missing enough to feel alright (and she was)

(Give Me Back My) Name

There's a word for it

And words don't mean a thing

There's name for it

And names make all the difference in the world

Some things can never be spoken

Some things cannot be pronounced

That word does not exist in any language

It will never be uttered by a human mouth

Let X make a statement

Let breath pass through those cracked lips

That man was my hero

And now that word has been taken from us

Some things can never be spoken

Some things cannot be pronounced

That word does not exist in any language

It will never be uttered by a human mouth

Give me back my name

Something has been changed in my life

Something must be returned to us

Something must me returned to us

Creatures of Love

A woman made a man

A man he made a house

And when they lay together

Little creatures all come out

Well, I've seen sex and I think it's alright

It makes those little creatures come to life

I can laugh or I can turn away

Well, I've seen sex and I think it's okay

We are creatures, creatures of love

From the sleep of reason, a life is born

We are creatures, creatures of love

It's okay to be afraid

When the blue sparks hit your brain

We can love one another

I've been told that it's okay

Doctor, doctor, tell me what I am

Am I one of those human beings

Well I can laugh or I can learn to think

So help me now to find out what I feel

We are creatures, creatures of love

We've been here forever, before you were born

We are creatures of love, We are creatures of love

A man can drive his car

And a woman can be a boss

I'm a monkey and a flower

I'm everything at once

Well, a woman and a man can be together

If they decide to they'll make little creatures

Watch 'em now!

Little creature of love

With two arms and two legs

From a moment of passion

Now they cover the bed

We are creatures of love, we are creatures of love

We are creatures, creatures of love

From the sleep of reason, a life is born

We are creatures of love, we are creatures of love

The Lady Don't Mind

Last time she jumped out the window, well, she only turned and

smiled. You might think she would say something, but you'd have to

wait a while.

Well the lady don't mind.

No, no, no, the lady don't mind

She just turns her head and disappears,

I kinda like that style

Little boat that floats on a river, it's drifting through a haze

She stops by whenever she wants to, well, there she goes again

Well, it's no trouble at all.

No, no, no trouble at all

Well, what she does

is all right with me, and

I kinda like that style

Come on. come on. I go up and down.

I like this curious feeling. I know, I see.

It's like make believe. Cover your ears

so you can hear what I'm saying.

I'm not lost but I don't know

Where I am. I got a question.

All right. All right. This is what we like.

Who knows, who knows,

What I'm thinking

She says love is not what she's after,

and everyone knows.

Each time she looks in the mirror,

she lets her feelings show.

Well, the lady don't mind

No, no, no, the lady don't mind.

Well, what she says is all right by me,

and I kinda like that style

Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Here we go again

I don't know, I don't know,

What I'm sayin'.

Hey man. Hey man.

I sure don't feel the same

She likes to say what she's feeling

Hey. Did I get a big surprise.

I know you think so.

Come on. Come on. She says anything.

Who knows, who knows,

what she's thinking.

Perfect World

Well, I know what it is

But I don't know where it is

Where it is

Well, I know where it is

But I don't know what it looks like

What it looks like

Well, I know what it looks like,

But I don't know where she comes from

Well, I know where she comes from,

But I don't know what's her name.

(and she said) This is a perfect world

I'm riding on an incline

I'm staring in your face

You'll photograph mine

And I've been walking, talking

Believing the things that are true

And I've been finding

The difference between right and wrong...good and bad

See me put things together

Put them back where they belong

Am I just like the others

Have I always been singing the same song

CHORUS

Somebody said that it happens all over the world

I do believe that it's true

And the sun's coming up

And we're doing all the things that we should

Doesn't everbody here believe in the things we do?

(And she said) CHORUSu

It's a strange situation

What's wrong with you?

Baby...baby...baby

What you doing in my house?

And it's all true

There's nothing wrong with you

(And I said) CHORUS

Stay Up Late

Mommy had. A little baby.

There he is. Fast asleep.

He's just. A little plaything.

Why not. Wake him up?

Cute. Cute. Little baby.

Little pee pee. Little toes.

Now he's comin' to me.

Crawl across. The kitchen floor.

Baby, baby, please let me hold him

I wanna make him stay up all night

Sister, sister, he's just a plaything

We wanna make him stay up all night

Yeah we do

See him drink. From a bottle.

See him eat. From a plate.

Cute. Cute. As a button.

Don't you wanna make him. Stay up late.

And we're having fun. With no money.

Little smile. On his face.

Don't cha' love. The little baby.

Don't you want to make him. Stay up late.

CHORUS

Here we go (all night long)

Sister, sister (all night long)

In the playpen...woo...(all night long)

Little baby goes, ha! (all night long)

I know you want to leave me...

Why don't. We pretend.

There you go. Little man.

Cute. Cute. Why not?

Late at night. Wake him up.

CHORUS

Here we go (all night long)

Sister, sister...woo...

(with the television on)

Little baby goes...woo! (all night long)

Hey, hey, baby! (all night long)

And he looks so cute (all night long)

In his little red suit (all night long)

Walk It Down

I...I am just a number

I...hang on to what I got

You...say what you want to

I...I...I...I just try to stay alive

I...put myself together

People say, get away, somebody will turn you in

Life, life without surrender

Togetherness...ecstasy is what I need

I can laugh, but I should cry

When love and understanding are the ultimate crimes

(And I said) Walk it down. Talk it down.

(oh, oh, oh) Sympathy. Luxury.

Somebody will take you there.

Walk it down. Talk it down.

(oh, oh, oh) Sympathy. Luxury.

Somebody will take you there.

She...says she remembers.

Time...long time ago.

We...belong together.

I...I...I...I turn up the radio

Lies, lies and propaganda

I...gonna tell you what I need

Life, life, without surrender

Togetherness...ecstasy is what I need

I got yours and you got mine

And I can swim, but I should fly

CHORUS

Ain't no crime to believe

I took my money, I bet my life

What you see is what you get

But it sure ain't what we need.

CHORUS

Television Man

I'm looking and I'm dreaming for the first time

I'm inside and I'm outside at the same time

And everything is real

Do I like the way I feel?

When the world crashes in into my living room

Television man made me what I am

People like to put the television down

But we are just good friends

(I'm a) television man

I knew a girl, she was a macho man

But it's alright, I wasn't fooled for long

This is the place for me

I'm the king, and you're the queen

CHORUS

Take a walk in the beautiful garden

Everyone would like to say hello

It doesn't matter what you say

Come and take us away

The world crashes in, into my living room

And we are still good friends...(Television man)

I'm watching everything...(Television man)

Television man...(Television man)

I'm watching everything...(Television man)

Television man...and I'm gonna say

We are still good friends...and I'm trying to be

Watchin' everything...and I gotta say

We are still good friends...You know the way it is

Television man...I've got what you need

We are still good friends...I know the way you are

Television man...I know what you're tryin' to be

Watchin' everything...and I gotta say

That's how the story ends.

Road to Nowhere

WELL WE KNOW WHERE WE'RE GOIN'

BUT WE DON'T KNOW WHERE WE'VE BEEN

AND WE KNOW WHAT WE'RE KNOWIN'

BUT WE CAN'T SAY WHAT WE'VE SEEN

AND WE'RE NOT LITTLE CHILDREN

AND WE KNOW WHAT WE WANT

AND THE FUTURE IS CERTAIN

GIVE US TIME TO WORK IT OUT

We're on a road to nowhere

Come on inside

Takin' that ride to nowhere

We'll take that ride

I'm feelin' okay this mornin'

And you know,

We're on the road to paradise

Here we go, here we go

CHORUS

Maybe you wonder where you are

I don't care

Here is where time is on our side

Take you there...take you there

We're on a road to nowhere

There's a city in my mind

Come along and take that ride

and it's all right, baby, it's all right

And it's very far away

But it's growing day by day

And it's all right, baby, it's all right

They can tell you what to do

But they'll make a fool of you

And it's all right, baby, it's all right

We're on a road to nowhere
