Off The Stage

off the stage into the cheers
off the cheers into a car
off the car into nothing at all
how're you gonna sleep
in a silence so deep
the clock stops, the clock goes
the clock hops, the clock knows
Just when you've got to
how're you gonna sleep
in a silence so deep
every bed is a bunk bed
with an empty bed over your head
how're you gonna sleep
in a silence so deep

they can live their lives
we want them happy
but under your throat they put a knife
they'll never set you free
why they don't see you, i don't know
why they don't hear you, i don't know
why they don't love you, i don't know
why they don't know you, i don't know
jealousy
it's lousy
a rat is eating my stomach
because of the way they judge me
should i never see them again
they might stop to complain
they don't see me that much at all
but it's too much for them

I Must Be Looney
03:27
|

i thought i saw you in another wagon
but you're so unlikely to have tagged along
it's sure you're in my brain
it's sure you're not on this train
i must be looney
i must be looney
it's easy to fool me
i must be looney
i know you and you have something up your sleeve
you'll be up to some trick the very minute i leave
secrets are still much sweeter than lies
surprise, surprise, that look in your eyes
in Cali we'll be a local sensation
special guests of the local radio station
i wonder whether it'll happen or not
so far it's always come sooner than i thought

Me+Depth=2
03:04

one smile for one word too many
tomorrow will be hot and crazy sunny
vinyl, cotton, rubber, nylon
Rockaway, Brighton, Coney Island
me and depth is two
minus me is you
me and depth is two
minus me is you
i kept my finger in my pocket but burst out laughing
i choked, they looked at me and you starting coughing
Jack and me and the mariachi
hiding in a coconut tree
you hung your picture by my bed
you hit the nail on the head
one sock was lying there
entwined with a piece of my hair

Who The World Belongs To
02:48
|
|||
the day is dying, the night is evil
there's me and you and other people
paper beats stone, a fuse is blown
and we are all all alone
pirates were all over the sea
parrots were all over their shoulders
you took my hand discretely
and we ran to your shelter
bitch, here’s a stick, run and fetch
while this feeling and the shadows stretch
quickly lay eyes on me
and when you're back, recognize me
don't you know who the world belongs to
whoever gets to the shore before you
here is your key to the double whammy
just sleep and dream and wake up early

They Want To
03:05
|

they want to stay together, together, together
the others don't want her, don't want her, don't love her
it hurts her, it hurts her, it hurts her
whatever, whatever, whatever
they want to stay together, together, together
but he won't defend her, protect her or call her
it hurts her, it hurts her, it hurts her
whatever, whatever, whatever
they want to stay together, together, together
he left her, he left her, he leaves her
he hurts her, he hurts her, he hurts her
whatever, whatever, whatever

i'll tell you about the things you want
i have experience
i'll tell you about the things you want
you are not the greediest
if what you want is a body
if what you want is a big name
what you want is nobody
what you want is not a name
i told you her name and how she was gone
i said her name and it wasn't long
five or seven seconds later
she sticked her neck out of the water
your body is warm, your body is cold
your body's young, your body's old
whatever you decide to decide
what matters is on the inside
here's your assignment, we need you
if you're for real, you better be true
to yourself, to us all
we'll catch you when you fall

Berlin Tune

i don't watch tv but i love
to watch the tv tower above
the roofs, the trees, the heads of friends
it changes colour but never bends
in the windows of the palace of the republic
i see her reflection, it's like magic
she moves with me from square to square
she follows me everywhere
the pizza guy near Kotti knows what i eat
it makes him smile every time we meet
the sliding carpet and the view are missing
but you can see her from the street, that's the main thing
when it's hit by lightning
i talk to strangers who are also watching
you meet a lot of nice people
when you are out riding your bicycle

call a friend, call a car
order drinks at the bar
pick a pretty girl and tell her you love her
but you can't fool around forever
you're not square you're not old
so leave her lonely and cold
let her cry, let her shiver
but you can't fool around forever
you can't fool around forever
pleasure is easy to measure
you can't fool around forever
love is the greatest treasure
put some fuel in your car
it's cool to go a little far
find another town and start all over
but you can't fool around forever

Brooklyn Moon
03:42
|

your silver spoon was a Brooklyn moon
brought to you by Gregory and June
they grew up in houses of hickory
you've lived in the basement of a factory
remember, we were as close together
as the Empire and the Chrysler
they're cool you know, they're not gonna choke
when you become a grown up and tell'em you smoke
it's such a drag that you don't, really
and that you're not sharing this one with me
he found a constellation called Thelonious
one drunken afternoon he showed it to us
she speaks slowly and it helps us make it
threw the cork we screw and the hair we split
they saw the burning crosses of Washington State
but they made you here and they made you great
we met in this god forsaken town
in this whole union the only one
