Dashing through paradise. So polite in what I say. Lost in the edge I'm in. I want a world to give away. . I know what's mine. You'll learn what's yours.
Remember me when I met you back in chicago?. Filthy bum (twenty plus some) with an old platitude. "mending fences or mending souls". That was all you had to say.
Your clean living, clear eyed. Clever, level headed brother says. He'll put all the screws. Upon your newest lover. . Buddha's in the fireplace. The truth's in drugs from outer space.
Thunder shook loose hail on the outhouse again. Today I bumped into you again. I have no idea what you want. But there was something I meant to say. .
They will show me what I want to see. We will watch without grief. We stay one step ahead of relief. . You tell me we've been praying. For a bright and clever hell.
So do I hear you say.... "Yes, Howard, of course"?. . I demand special consideration as the most human. Now that's not much to ask, is it?. But it makes me feel like a force for evil.
You urban vision of loveliness. Moving scenes of skin. You understand the ways and means. Of city discipline. A structured life in some girls' rooms. Mirror glass and light.
Staring into the world what do you see?. Life seems so cold it's hard. This world is weeping. As far as the eye can see - 'Ocean of Tears'. No light to shine on earth.
I suspect you ain't so sweet. As the lust I'm concealing. My skin wants to crawl back home to ma. I've lost my way in my feelings. . You always collect your fists.
This is what I am - Flesh with a soul. This is what I'll be - Soul without flesh. Someday will come when I should die. Death for a flesh; life for my soul.
My mind, it ain't so open. That anything could crawl right in. . The last place to lose yourself. Is in the world where we all cling. . Oh, my lover, we are opening.
I believe all that I read now. Night has come off the corners. Shadows flicker sweet and tame. Dancing like crazy mourners. . The man with the hotdog sells lemonade.
I'm sick of working on the land. I wanna work with machines and look handsome. I have been indulging in ostentatious display. Doing little more than eat three square meals a day.
Keep it in the dark. You say now you want to stay. . Put on your clothes. I think you should go away. I can lose my way on the shortest of journeys. .
I'm such and such, I'm a scream. Bad choices take me to task you'll see. I'll take out the car. But nobody'll want to crash. . Take me with you. (I'm a party).
I wanted your heart. For the last time. I want to be in your bed. I want your words. To colour all that's been said. "i will love you when the devil is blind".
The newcomer arrives. Possession and guilt in his face. Apologizes to the customs man. For the gaping hole in his suitcase. . Says, I've seen where promises are made.
You think I'm a lame duck. I don't give a blue luck. I'm living like crazy. Driven to be lazy. . I blush like a tomato. Pale as a chipped potato. You're a real peach.
Goldfinger. He's the man, the man with the Midas touch. A spider's touch. . Such a cold finger. Beckons you to enter his web of sin. But don't go in. .
You're gonna give me immunity. You're gonna receive punishment. I'm gonna lose myself in you. Because you're not quite of this world. . There will be rooms.
