I'm like a wave out on the ocean.. Come and going with the tide.. No idea where I'm heading Or direction to my life My home is on the highway And my family is on the stage.
Take the "E" train babe. take the easy train to Austin. . Take the "E" train babe. take the easy train to Austin. . Baby you been ridin' that train so long.
Erase all the bastards, that gripped her, the vultures. And your sad eyes, that don't flicker. Protect her [2x]. . Turn the world into the wild. . There is nothing outside but a mirror and the sky.
Got me a voodoo doll [2x]. Untouched, I'll feel it all. Got me a voodoo doll. . Show it hell, I've seen it. Take its hope when I need it. I'm breathing for it.
I ain't afraid of the dark. I ain't worried about the savages loose in the night. But you show me the things I've done. And girl you know I get the chills all down my crooked spine.
Trained in the art of devastating. The arts be remaining unmoved in their midst. We came down, down, down. From that high and now we're looking for more.
How you gonna get up if you ain't never been down?. How you gonna move on if you ain't never had enough?. Give the signal advance the pill pushers. Administer a change purse full of Thorazine.
We drew a crowd. The crowd drew the blood. Fawning swindlers. There's a shark in the stream where the newborns are baptized. Who let the flatterer into the gallery on our sweet sixteen? Take him away.
Play with the bow at the bridge. Tune your voices to minor chords. This is the lowest we've ever been. Until we bend for the offering. . We're giving a knee jerk response to the awe.
We're making habits out of vanities and gospel for the stalls. But the less you breathe the more you see of it all. . The lions share is courting the teen.
Two sets of taillights burn dim and divide,. Stretch for miles making track marks across what veins fail to carry.. You should have taken my keys while my hands were shaking..
We drew a crowd. The crowd drew the blood. Fawning swindlers. There's a shark in the stream where the newborns are baptized. Who let the flatterer into the gallery on our sweet sixteen? Take him away.
You got me right where you wanted me. So what do we do if I can't hold this pose for too long?. Do we shoot again, or does the whole operation shut down and we go back to the board?.
I was wrong, close one. I am wrong. I said it. I was wrong, I mean it. Did it stick? Come down from there. I know it's hard to swallow, when your head is overturned.
This isn't at all unpleasent. I'm enchanted by the lavish ballet, and I'll whistle the tune all the way to the gallows that I heard at the cabaret. At the sheriff's singal, the orchestra moves the floor. Don't it make you feel wonderful? Body twisting strictly ballroom. Criminally elegant ideal postured Viennese waltzer I'm dressed to kill. I'm weightless and well rehearsed. In my godless opera my character is canonized. Unhand me. This is a musical and nothing goes wrong. Can't keep the classics out of the head of the masochists. Strike up the band. It's 245 beats for a measure or 5 beats for 6 steps on alternating feet. The show must go on. Never mind the teeth and the fingernails, the show must go on. I don't feel at all like I thought I would, but I could probably go on like this forever. Tonight we dance, for tomorrow they release the dogs. 1,2,3. 1,2,3. Keep it up. 1,2,3. Savor it. Where is my head? Where is my heart? Everything vanishes.
Cleaned up a mess I'm in, now I am born again. Naked, spotless motion without strings. I've flushed the filth to the sea, the limbs and sharp debris. But if that water rises woe is me.
All of a sudden you're dead. The ground cracks and takes you in. You've no time to be born again. There was nothing where something had been. But every grave that blooms is anchored in miles of roots.
Vague men tied to a stake, gather round your little ones. Feast your eyes, steady your aim behold. We hit shore dragging miles of verse. Poisoned food on the line, well we're throwing it back.
I feel alright, but I'm buried alive. Nothing's healed, just covered by time. I want to pray, but I think I'm possessed. Constant cardiac arrest. . I'm standing in the way again.
Wait until they send your son home in a box. See if you're dancing when water is everywhere. Anguish is endless but deaths unambiguous. Wave as it carries him off.
