i got a brand new aeroplane
i saw it yesterday
i'm coming 'round to see you
so you really got to say that
look we've got a metal house
look we've got a game
look here comes my aeroplane 
to take us all away while

up in my plane
looking for my destination

everybody's looking up
they're staring at the sky
look here comes my aeroplane
bringing us the stuff
look here comes my heavy bird
get a suit to wear
look at all the houses
they're dancing in the air while

up in my plane
i'm coming down if you want me

up in my plane
up in my plane
up in my plane
up in my plane

aeroplane
aeroplane
aeroplane
aeroplane

city sky comes down like rain
through all the alleys to the sea
i hear footsteps getting louder
drowning in my sleep
painted lies on painted lips
that promise heaven tastes like this
i don't believe that i believed in you
all that money wants

all that money wants
all that money wants

sunday's child will fall through faith
i feel i'm falling out of grace
grey city sky comes down like rain
to drown me in my sleep
people fade and i forget you
i hear footsteps see their faces
but it all means nothing to me now

all that money wants
all that money wants
all that money wants

city sky comes down like rain 
through all the alleys to the sea
i hear her footsteps getting louder
i'm drowning in my sleep
painted lies on broken lips
that promise heaven tastes like this
came home pushed and full of pins

sunday's child will fall through faith
i feel i'm falling out of grace
i see the sky comes down like rain
to drown me in my sleep
people fade and i forget you
i hear footsteps icy faces
but it all means nothing to me 
all that money wants

all that money wants
all that money wants
all that money wants

in the softest room you sing
without a key
the butler is serving tea

i counted down the days
the darkened that i was sad
down like i was it
and shattered down on city road
and shadow dust in cars
the beat a halt in time???
somebody's shouting at your door
without a face to hide
and on the mercy side
her name is tearing at your sleep
with greed and greedy teeth
and all its hungry hands

the sound of celebration
jesus day down on the road
where nothing in me sings
i got to wear my wedding suit
put on a shirt and wash my face
and polish up my teeth
i've got my pocket full of holes
and with a hand i feel my rings
the clatter of your sin
a monkey's dogging at my heals 
and at the side i paint it black
to turn you from my things

no wedding song
no wedding song can shake my feet
or stop me now
or touch the doubt that makes my faith
come falling down
no edges here can cut my skin
no vanity
no valentine
no gravity can hold me winterland
this day has been a lifetime 
burned down birdland

no valentine
no vanity that that lovers make
can stop me now
i fear the hand that makes my grade???
in birdland
flesh and blood can't be too strong winterland

jesus christ should slap our faces
he should make our faces sing
sometimes it pays to turn your face away
before you shake me out of sleep
when all your tears run through my vains 
in [??] and siren light
tear down birdland
this day has been a lifetime 
winterland
[??] and siren lights in birdland
flesh and blood can't be too strong winterland
tear down birdland

(instrumental)

i don't want to be a shadow

so he's gone now
now he's blown away
didn't mean it, did he?
losing all your games
all that yes i do time 
when the lights go down

and it's time to move
and time to change
time to use
and time to pay
yes i do time
when the lights go down

i don't want to be a shadow
i don't mean i'm gonna follow
i'm not lost or stuck in sorrow
i don't want to be a shadow

i don't want to tell you 
when you run around
i just want to be there 
when the night comes down
when it's yes i do time 
when the lights go down

and it's time to move
and time to change
time to use
and time to pay
yes i do time
when the lights go down

i don't want to be a shadow

i don't want to be a shadow
i don't mean i'm gonna follow
i'm not lost or stuck in sorrow
i don't want to be a shadow
i don't want to be a shadow
i don't mean i'm gonna follow
i'm not lost or stuck in sorrow
i don't want to be a shadow

yeah the shark has
such white teeth dear
and he shows them pearly white
just a jack knife
has mack he's dear
and he keeps it out of sight

johnny whitey
disappeared dear
after drawing out his cash but mack
he spins like a sailor
did our boy do something rash

on a sidewalk
sunday morning
there's a body
oozing life
someone's sneaking 'round a corner
is that someone really mack the knife

there's got a [??] job
and [??] tawdryness
jenny diver
and lucy brown
oh a line forms
on the right dear
now that mack is back in town

shine light enough to see
shine brighter down on me
one wish is all i need
shine light enough

if you can see what i see
(i'll make it mine)
you can't close your eyes on me
and on my radio you speak 
(i'll make it mine)
i can't make sense of what it means

i'll make it mine...i
i'll make it mine...i
 
stand tall enough to see
stand taller now than me
think loud enough to speak
talk louder now

i'm gonna wear my money coat
(i'll make it mine)
and my religion and my rose
i'm gonna turn my mouth up loud
(i'll make it mine)
and not get taped or turn around

i'll make it mine...i
i'll make it mine...i

i see a pretty face
gets shaken and scared
i'm looking between the lines
and there's somebody mean
and she don't know my name
waiting for a lie to change

i've been wasting my time
in the back of a new dream
i've been wasting time
in the back of a new dream

i've been wasting my time
in a brand new dream
waiting to life to change
i see your pretty face
it's so shaken and blue
i've been looking between the lines

i've been wasting time
in the back of a new dream
i've been wasting time
in the back of a new dream

nobody's gonna fade
every time you turn the light
nobody's gonna tie my shoes
or tie me up in chains
there's a girl that wants it all
she'll tell you everything she knows
and there's anything to sleep with her
when your eyes are closed

and i've been wasting all my time
in the back of a new dream
i've been wasting all my time
in the back of a new dream
i've been wasting all my time
in the back of a new dream
i've been wasting all my time
in the back of a new dream

leave my shadow cast
where my shadow fell
now you've come this far
come on
make a way to suit yourself
shouting names that i
heard a hundred times before
no one there to leave
no one there to take the call

turn the door to leave
and i raise a hand to say
bye...goodbye

in the same old place
clean the air to speak
raise a hand to say that i
leave it all behind
and i take his bottle down
let celebration
hush a noisy self
better late to now begin

turn the door to leave
then i raise a hand to say
bye...goodbye

turn the door to leave
and i raise a hand to say
bye...goodbye

one for my mistakes
one that celebration says
with it all to say
now you've come this far and they
selling seventeen
down the radio come on
any coyness sent
penny, quarter
thanks a lot

turn the door to leave
then i raise a hand to say
bye...goodbye

better late than now
and i raise a hand to say
goodbye

turn the door to leave
and i raise a hand to say
bye...goodbye
