Hate me, do it and do it again.
And my friend comes after work,
When the features start to blur.
She says, "these bars are filled with things that kill,
By now you probably should have learned".

Did you forget that yellow bird?
But how could you forget your yellow bird?
She took a small silver wreath and pinned it onto me,
She said, "this one will bring you love".
And I don't know if it's true,
But I keep it for good luck...

Be sure and tell her...
Mojique sees his village from a nearby hill
Mojique thinks of days before Americans came
He sees the foreigners in growing numbers
He sees the foreigners in fancy houses
He thinks of days that he can still remember...now.

Mojique holds a package in his quivering hands
Mojique sends the package to the American man
Softly he glides along the streets and alleys
Up comes the wind that makes them run for cover
He feels the time is surely now or never...more.

The wind in my heart
The wind in my heart
The dust in my head
The dust in my head
The wind in my heart
The wind in my heart
(Come to) Drive them away
Drive them away.
Mojique buys equipment in the market place
Mojique plants devices in the free trade zone
He feels the wind is lifting up his people
He calls the wind to guide him on his mission
He knows his friend the wind is always standing...by.

Mojique smells the wind that comes from far away
Mojique waits for news in a quiet place
He feels the presence of the wind around him
He feels the power of the past behind him
He has the knowledge of the wind to guide him...on.

The wind in my heart
The wind in my heart
The dust in my head
The dust in my head
The wind in my heart
The wind in my heart
(Come to) Drive them away
Drive them away.
--"Listening Wind", Talking Heads

Set the gearshift for the high gear
of your soul, you've got to run like
an antelope out of control!

"In Love"

I remember the night we met.
That night we sat entwined
under summer skies.
I looked into your eyes,
and you looked into mine.

You said, "You're not like the rest"
and I nodded.
"No one understands me",
you said, and I nodded once again,
as if to agree that all men
are indeed the same.
Somehow, you said,
I was different

For months on end I maintained
a veneer of sincere interest
as if I were listening
as you relived every page
of self-help and new age
that you had read.

And I went in for the kill.
I'd read the same books.
I learned to ape the motions
of a "sensitive" human being
and we were "oh-so-happy",
but you found things to fix,
and I knew it was time to move on.

So now you have me completely figured out.
You feel sorry for me.
I can't express my feelings.
I can't tell the truth.
We are all alike.

At puberty I was sworn to secrecy
by the International Brotherhood
of Lying Fickle Males.
I can't tell you anything and

I
CAN'T
COMMIT!

You're right!
I can't commit...
to you!

I will always treasure our time together.
I don't feel enough of anything
to harbor the kind of disdain
that you'll maintain.
You painted me into what you
wanted to see, and that's fine,
but you will never know me.

Echoes <3

Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air
And deep beneath the rolling waves
In labyinths of coral caves
The echo of a distant time
Comes willowing across the sand
And everything is green and submarine

And no-one showed us to the land
And no-one knows the wheres or whys
But something stirs and something tries
And starts to climb towards the light

Strangers passing in the street
By chance two separate glances meet
And I am you and what i see is me
And do i take you by the hand
And lead you through the land
And help me understand the best i can

And no-one calls us to move on
And no-one forces down our eyes
And no-one speaks and no-one tries
And no-one flies around the sun

Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes
Inviting and inciting me to rise
And through the window in the wall
Come streaming in on sunlight wings
A million bright ambassadors of morning

And no-one sings me lullabies
And no-one makes me close my eyes
And so I throw the windows wide
And call to you across the sky
Signature is like sex

Hate me, do it and do it again.
And I stood nervous next to you in the dark room,
You dropped the paper in the water,
And it all begins to bloom...

Hate me, do it and do it again.
So in the end I'd like to say
That I'm a very thankful man.
I tried to make the most of my situations,
And enjoy what I had.
I knew true love and I knew passion,
And the difference between the two.
And I had some regrets,
But if I had to do it all again,
Well, it's something I'd like to do.

One of the nicest endings to an album I'll ever hear.

Today I feel like pleasing you more than before
Today I know what I want to do but I don't know what for
To be living for you is all I want to do
To be loving you it'll all be there when my dreams come true
Today you'll make me say that I somehow have changed
Today you'll look into my eyes, I'm just not the same
To be anymore than all I am would be a lie
I'm so full of love I could burst apart and start to cry
Today everything you want, I swear it all will come true
Today I realize how much I'm in love with you
With you standing here I could tell the world what it means to love
To go on from here I can't use words, they don't say enough
Please, please listen to me
It's taken so long to come true
And it's all for you
all for you....

THE JANITOR
We met in a bar
Out on Chesapeake Bay
With her white patent boots
And her blouse red lame
A table top dancer
She would smile on cue
Those lips of an angel
Angel in blue

She's been dancing for ages
Though cities of bars
She was kickin' the habit
of scoring in cars
She'd been drained of her spirit
All caged in this zoo
A wildcat angel
Angel in blue

And as she stared out into nowhere
I thought, yes, I thought she might break down and cry
When I whispered I thought I could love her
She just said "Baby, don't even bother to try"

And I watched as she spoke
Her words chilled my bones
All her friends did her favors
That were really just loans
And she never had dreams
So they never came true
The palest of angels
Angel in blue

And the bees they had stung her
The birds they had flown
There were guys she could number
But none she had known
And she never had dreams
So they never came true
My fade away angel
Angel in blue

Angel In Blue - J. Geils Band
An absolute favorite from them
When she walks she moves so fine like a flamingo
Crimson dress that clings so tight She's out of reach and out of sight

Station to Station - David Bowie

The return of the Thin White Duke
Throwing darts in lovers' eyes
Here are we, one magical moment, such is the stuff
From where dreams are woven
Bending sound, dredging the ocean, lost in my circle
Here am I, flashing no colour
Tall in this room overlooking the ocean

Here are we, one magical movement from Kether to Malkuth
There are you, you drive like a demon from station to station
The return of the Thin White Duke, throwing darts in lovers' eyes
The return of the Thin White Duke, throwing darts in lovers' eyes
The return of the Thin White Duke, making sure white stains

Once there were mountains on mountains
And once there were sunbirds to soar with
And once I could never be down
Got to keep searching and searching
Oh, what will I be believing and who will connect me with love?
Wonder *who*, wonder who, wonder when
Have you sought fortune, evasive and shy?
Drink to the men who protect you and I
Drink, drink, drain your glass, raise your glass high

TWO TIMES:
It's not the side-effects of the cocaine
I'm thinking that it must be love
It's too late - to be grateful
It's too late - to be late again
It's too late - to be hateful
The European cannon is here

I must be only one in a million
I won't let the day pass without her
It's too late - to be grateful
It's too late - to be late again
It's too late - to be hateful
The European cannon is here

Should I believe that I've been stricken?
Does my face show some kind of glow?
It's too late - to be grateful
It's too late - to be late again
It's too late - to be hateful
The European cannon is here, yes it's here
It's too late

It's too late, it's too late, it's too late, it's too late
The European cannon is here

Your fright gives way to memory,
Having coffee with your love,
Or the story your father told you long ago.
He was hunting with his own father
For deer, he pointed and spotted her,
And then tripped over some roots or some dead trees.
The gun went off, it was a mistake.
And my father was only eight,
And as he watched the dying deer he was changed.
Cause he felt sorry for what he'd done,
And he put down his gun.
Will you feel sorry for what you've done?
Will you put down your gun?

It's just your accidental death,
Your accidental death.
But there's no accidental death,
When you're the Indian in the cougar's nest...
