Ode To My Family

Understand the things I say

Don't turn away from me

'Cause I've spent half my life out there

You wouldn't disagree

Do you see me? Do you see?

Do you like me? Do you like me standing there?

Do you notice? Do you know?

Do you see me? Do you see me?

Does anyone care?

Unhappiness where's when I was young

And we didn't give a damn

'Cause we were raised

To see life as fun and take it if we can

My mother, my mother she hold me

Did she hold me ,when I was out there

My father, my father, he liked me

Oh he liked me,does anyone care?

Understand what I've become

It wasn't my design

And people everywhere think

Something better than I am

But I miss you, I miss

'Cause I liked it. I liked it

When I was out there

Do you know this ? D'you know

You did not find me, you did not find

Does anyone care?

Unhappiness was when I was young,

And we didn't give a damn

'Cause we were raised

To see life as fun, and take it if we can

To see life as fun and take it if we can

My mother, my mother she hold me

Did she hold me ,when I was out there

My father, my father, he liked me

Oh he liked me,does anyone care?

does anyone care?

I Can't Be With You

Lying in my bed again

And i cry cos' you're not here

Crying in my head again

And I know that it's not clear

Put your hands, Put your hands

Inside my face and see that's it's just you

But it's bad and it's mad

And it's making me sad

Because I can't be with you

Baby I Can't Be With You

Thinking back on how things were

And how we loved so well

I wanted to be the mother

Of your child

and now it's just farewell

Put your hands in my hands

And come with me,

We'll find another end

And my head , and my head

On anyone's shoulder

Cause I can't be with you

Baby I can't be with you

Cause you're not here, you're not here

Baby I can't be with you

Cause you're not here, you're not here

And baby I'm still in love with you

Twenty One

I don't think it's going

To happen anymore

You took my thoughts from me

Now i want nothing more

And did you think you

Could just take it all away

I dont think it s happening

This is what I say

Leave me alone

Cause i found it all

Twenty one

So I don't think it's going

To happen anymore

I don't think it's going

To happen anymore

Twenty One

Today

Twenty One

Zombie

Another head hangs lowly

Child is slowly taken

And the violence caused such silence

Who are we mistaken

But you see it's not me,

It s not my family

In your head,in your

Head they are fighting

With their tanks, and their bombs

And their bombs, and their guns

In your head,

In your head they are cryin'

In your head

Zombie

What's in your head, in your head

Zombie

Another mother's breakin'

Heart is taking over

When the violence causes silence

We must be mistaken

It's the same old theme since 1916

In your head,

In your head they're still fightin'

With their tanks

In your head they are dying

In your head, in your head

Zombie

What's in your head, in your head

Zombie

Empty

Something has left my life

And I don't know where it went to

Somebody caused me stripe

And it's not what I was seeking

Didn't you see me, didn't you hear me

Didn't you see me standing there

Why did you turn out the lights

Did you know that I was sleeping

Say a prayer for me

Help to feel the strength I did

My identity has it been taken

Is my heart breaking on me

All my plans fell through my hands

They fell

Through my hands on me

All my dreams it suddenly seems

Empty

Everything I Said

It makes me lonely

It makes me very lonely

When I see you there, waitin'on

It makes me tired, It makes me very tired

And inside of me, lingers on

But you have your heart

Don t believe it, and you will find it

Waitin'on

Everything I said, oh, well I meant it

And inside my head, holdin'on

'Cos if I died tonight

Would you hold my hand, no

Would you understand

And if I lived in spite

Would you still be there, no

Would you disappear

Surely must be you

But I don t make you lonely

I'll get over you

But I don 't make you lonely

The Icicle Melts

When

When will the icicle melt,

And when

When will the picture show end

I should not have read the papers today

'Cause a child,child he was taken away

There's a place for the baby that died

And there's a time for the mother who cried

And she will hold him in her arms sometimes

'Cause nine months is too long

How could you hurt a child

Now does this make you satisfied

I don't know what's

happening to people today

When a child, he was taken away

There's a place for the baby that died

There's a time for the mother that cried

And she will hold him in

her arms sometimes

'Cause nine months is too long

There's a place for the baby that died

And there's a time for the mother that cried

And you will hold him in

your arms sometimes

'Cause nine months is too long

Disappointment

Disappointment you shouldn't have done

You couldn't have done

You wouldn't have done

the things you did there

And we could 've been happy

What a piteous thing, a hideous thing

was tainted by the rest

But it won't get any harder

And I hope you'll find your way again

But it won't get any higher

But it all boils down to what you did there

In the night we fight, I feel you're right

It was exactly there

I decided

and drew you out

In the night we fight, I feel you're right

It was exactly there

I decided

But it won't get any harder

And I hope you'll find your way again

But it won't get any higher

But it all boils down to what you did there

Dissapointment

Ridiculous Thoughts

Twister does anyone see through you

You’re a twister an animal

But you're happy now

I didn't go along with you

So happy now

But you re going to have to hold on

Hold on

Or we're going to have to move on

Move on

I feel alright

And I cried so hard

The ridiculous thoughts

I feel alright

Twister. I shouldn't have trusted you

Twister

It's not going to happen no

You re not going to make fun of me

Happen no

But you re going to have to hold on

You re going to have to hold on

Hold on

Or we're going to have to move on

Move on

I feel alright

And I cried so hard

The ridiculous thoughts

I feel alright

I should have lied

And I cried so hard

The ridiculous thoughts

I should ha' lied

But you re gonna have to hold on

Hold on

but you're gonna have to hold on to me

Dreaming My Dreams

All the things you said to me today

Changed my perspective in every way

These things count to mean

so much to me

Into my faith you

And your baby

It s out there

If you want me

I'll be there

It's out there

I'll be dreaming my dreams

With you

And there's no other places

That I'd lay down my face

I'll be dreaming my dreams with you

It's out there

If you want me,I'll be here

I'll be dreaming my dreams with you

And there's no other places that I'd

lay down my face

I'll be dreaming my dreams with you

Yeat's Grave

Silenced by death in the grave

W B Yeats couldn't save

Why did you stand there

'Where you sickened in time

But I know by now

Why did you sit here?

In the GRAVE

W.B. Yeats "Second"

Why should I blame her

That she filled my days

With misery or that she would of late

Have taught to ignorant men violent ways

Or hurled the little street upon the great

Had they but courage

Equals to desire

Sad that Maud Gonne Couldn't stay

But she had Mac Bride anyway

And you sit here with me

On the isle Inisfree

And you writing down everything

But i know by now

Why did you sit here

In the grave...

Why should I blame her

Had they but courage equals to desire

Daffodil Lament

Holding on that's what I do

Since I met you

And it won't be long, would you notice

If I left you

And it's fine for some

Cause you're not he one,

All night long, I laid on my pillow

Theses things are wrong

I can't sleep here

So lonely, so lonely

I have decided to leave you forever

I have decided to start things from here

Thunder and lightning won't change

What I'm feeling

And the daffodils look lovely today

Oh in your eyes I can see the disguise

Oh in your eyes I can see the dismay

Has anyone seen lightning

Has anyone looked lovely

And the daffodils looked lovely today

Looked lovely

No Need To Argue

There 's no need to argue anymore

I gave all i could

But it left me so sore

And the thing that makes me mad

is the one thing that I had

I knew, I knew I'd loose you

You 'll always be special to me

And I remember all the

Things we once shared

Watching TV movies on

the living room armchair

But they say it will work out fine

Was it all a waste of time

Cause I knew, I knew I'd loose you

You 'll always be special to me

Will I forget in time

You said I was on your mind

There 's no need to argue

No need to argue anymore

There 's no need to argue anymore

Special

To the faithful departed

Hollywood

I've got a picture in my head (in my head)

Salvation

To all those people doing lines, don't do it, don't do it.

To all the kids with heroin eyes , don't do it, don't do it.

Because it's not, not what it seems.

No, no it's not, not what it seems

When You're Gone

Hold on to love.

That is what I do,

Now that I've found you.

And from above, everything's stinking,

Their not around you.

And in the night, I could be helpless

I could be lonely, sleeping without you.

And in the day, everything's complex

There's nothing simple, when I'm not around you.

But, I miss you when you're gone.

That is what I do, Bay, Bay, Bay

And it's going to carry on,

That is what I knew, Bay, Bay, Bay

Hold on to my hand,

I feel I'm sinking, sinking without you.

And to my mind, everything's stinking

Stinking without you.

And in the night, I could be helpless,

I could be lonely, sleeping without you.

And in the day, everything's complex,

There's nothing simple, when I'm not around you.

And I miss you when you're gone.

That is what I do, Bay, Bay, Bay

And it's going to carry on,

That is what I do, Bay, Bay, Bay

Free To Decide

It's not worth anything more than this at all

I live as I choose or I will not live at all.

So return to where you've come from.

Return to where you dwell.

Because harassments not my forte,

But you do it very well.

I'm Free To Decide, I'm Free To Decide

And I'm not so suicidal after all.

I'm Free To Decide, I'm Free To Decide

And I'm not so suicidal after all. (At all, at all, at all)

You must have nothing more with your time to do.

There's a war in Russia and Sarejevo, too.

So to hell with want your thinking.

And to hell with your narrow of mind.

You're so distracted from the real thing.

You should leave your life behind. (behind)

I'm Free To Decide, I'm Free To Decide

And I'm not so suicidal after all.

I'm Free To Decide, I'm Free To Decide

And I'm not so suicidal after all. (At all, at all, at all)

I'm Free To Decide, I'm Free To Decide

And I'm not so suicidal after all. (At all, at all, at all)

At all, At all, At all!

War Child

Who will save the War Child baby?

Who controls the keys?

The web we weave is thick and sordid.

Fine by me.

At times of war.

We're all the losers,

There's no victory.

We'll shoot to kill, and kill your lover.

Fine by me.

War Child!

Victim of political Pride.

Plant the seed, territorial Greed.

Mind, the War Child.

We should mind, the War Child.

I spent last winter in New York,

And came upon a man.

He was sleeping on the streets and homeless,

He said, "I fought in Vietnam."

Beneath his shirt he wore the mark,

He bore the mark of Pride.

A two-inch deep incision carved,

Into his side.

War Child!

Victim of political Pride.

Plant the seed, territorial Greed.

Mind, the War Child.

We should mind, the War Child.

Whose the loser now, eh?

We're all the losers now!

War Child, War Child

Forever Yellow Skies

Yellow Skies, I can see the Yellow Skies.

See you again, I see you again

In my dreams, in my dreams, in my dreams, in my dreams.

Morning light, I remember morning light.

Outside my doors, I 'll see you no more.

In my dreams, in my dreams, in my dreams, in my dreams

Forever, Forever I'll be forever holding you.

Responsible, Responsible, Responsible, Responsible.

So black and white,

It's become so black and white.

So insecure, You're so insecure,

That's what you are, That's what you are,

That's what you are, That's what you are.

Forever, Forever I'll be forever holding you.

Responsible, Responsible, Responsible, Responsible.

Forever, Forever I'll be forever holding you.

Responsible, Responsible, Responsible, Responsible.

The Rebels

Seems like yesterday we were sixteen,

We were The Rebels of the Rebel Scene.

We wore Doc Martens in the sun,

Drinking vintage cider having fun.

We were, drinking vintage cider having fun.

It wasn't often, that we'd fight at all! It wasn't often!

We wore Doc Martens in the snow,

Paint our toenails black and let our hair grow.

What I am now is what I was then,

I am not more acceptable then them.

It wasn't often, that we'd fight at all! It wasn't often!

It wasn't often, It wasn't often,

It wasn't often, It wasn't often.

Seems like yesterday we were sixteen,

We were The Rebels of the Rebel Scene.

I Just Shot John Lennon

It was the fearful night of December 8th,

He was returning home from the studio, late.

He had perceptively known that it wouldn't be nice.

Because in 1980, he paid the price.

John Lennon died, John Lennon died, John Lennon died!

With a Smith & Wesson, 38

John Lennon's life was no longer a debate.

He should have stayed at home, he should have never cared.

And the man who took his life declared, he said,

"I Just Shot John Lennon!"

He said, "I Just Shot John Lennon!"

What a sad and sorry and sickening sight.

What a sad and sorry and sickening night,

What a sad and sorry and sickening sight,

What a sad and sorry and sickening night!

"I Just Shot John Lennon!"

He said, "I Just Shot John Lennon!"

What a sad and sorry and sickening sight.

What a sad and sorry and sickening night,

What a sad and sorry and sickening sight,

What a sad and sorry and sickening night!

Electric Blue

Electric blue eyes, where did you come from?

Electric blue eyes, who sent you?

Electric blue eyes, always be near me.

Electric blue eyes, I need you.

Domine, Domine, Deus,

Domine, Adiuva Me,

Domine, Domine, Deus,

Domine, Adiuva Me,

Hey, eh, hey, eh

You should know, You should know I love you

You should know, You should know I'm here.

Always be near me, guardian angel,

Always be near me, there's no fear.

Domine, Domine, Deus,

Domine, Adiuva Me,

Domine, Domine, Deus,

Domine, Adiuva Me,

Hey, eh, hey, eh

I'm Still Remembering

I'm still remembering the day

I gave my life away.

I'm still remembering the time

You said you'd be mine.

Yesterday was cold and bare

Because you were not there.

Yesterday was cold

My story has been told.

I need your affection all the way.

The world is changing and has changed away (way).

I try to remain.

I'm trying not to go insane.

I need your affection all the way.

I'm still remembering my life

Before I became your wife.

I'm still remembering the pain

And the mind games.

Reverse psychology, never tainted me.

I didn't sell my soul, I didn't sell my soul.

I need your affection all the way.

The world is changing and has changed away (way).

I try to remain.

I'm trying not to go insane.

I need your affection all the way.

They say the cream'll always

Rise to the top.

They say that good people

Are always first to drop.

What of Kurt Cobain,

Will his presence still remain?

Remember J. F. K.,

Ever saintly in a way.

Where are you now?

I say, where are you now?

I need your affection all the way.

Will You Remember

Will you remember the dress I wore?

Will you remember my face?

Will you remember the lipstick I wore?

This world is a wonderful place.

Will you remember the black limousine?

Will you remember champagne?

Will you remember the things that we see?

I will return here again.

Will you remember the flowers in my hand?

Will you remember my hair?

Will you remember the future we planned?

The world is not waiting out there.

I won't remember the dress I wore.

I won't remember champagne.

I won't remember the things that we swore.

I will just love you in vain.

Will you remember?

Will you recall?

Will you remember?

Joe

There was a time, I was so lonely. (away)

Remember the time, It was a Friday. (away)

You made me feel fine, We did it my way. (away)

I sat on your knees, every Friday. (away)

(We walked in fields of golden hay)

I still recall you.

(We walked in fields of golden hay)

I see you in the summer.

Joe, Joe

I sat on your chair by the fire. (away)

Transfixed in a stare taking me higher. (away)

Precious years to remember. (away)

Childhood fears I surrender. (away)

(We walked in fields of golden hay)

I still recall you.

(We walked in fields of golden hay)

I see you in the summer.

Joe, Joe

Cordell

Once you ruled my mind

I thought you'd always be there

And I'll always hold on to your face

But everything changes in time

And the answers are not always fair

And I hope you've gone to a better place

Cordell

Time will tell

They say that you've passed away

And I hope you've gone to a better place

Time will tell

They say that you've passed away

And I know that you've gone to a better place

Cordell...Cordell....Cordell...Cordell

Cordell...Cordell....Cordell

Your lover and baby will cry

But you presence will always remain

Is this how it was meant to be?

You meant something more to me

Than what many people will see

And to hell with the industry.

Cordell

Time will tell

They say that you've passed away

And I hope you've gone to a better place

Time will tell

We all will depart and decay

And we all will return to a better place

Cordell...Cordell.....Cordell....Cordell

Cordell....Cordell....Cordell

Bosnia

I would like to state my vision,

Life was so unfair.

We live in our secure surroundings,

And people die out there.

Bosnia, was so unkind,

Sarejevo, change my mind.

And we all call out in despair.

All the love we need isn't there.

And we all sing songs in our rooms,

Sarejevo erects another tomb.

Sarejevo! Sarejevo! Sarejevo! Sarejevo!

Bosnia, was so unkind.

Sarejevo! Sarejevo! Sarejevo!

Bosnia, was so unkind.

Sure, things would change

If we really wanted them to.

No fear for children anymore,

There are babies in their beds.

Terror in their heads,

Love for the love of life!
