I’ve been crawling up the vines that take me to your heart
Fortunately I have been approved, five embrasures to the moon, I’m I too soon?
An owl drinking Turkish coffee spitting out the grounds
A Pawnee standing at my doorstep feathers for a crown
The Cancer cries, the Gemini grins
Leo sleeps by the fire he tends
Capricorn stellar drums
The Scorpio’s rise has now begun
A condor soaring through the sky above meadows under yellow rain
Deer heads telling bear pelts what a wonderful and fancy rug they make
The jewels wrapped around your neck are they the ones you’ve found,
Or did you take them from the mannequin in my wedding gown

Yellow Hand

Talked about the monkeys and the kangaroos
but never mentioned the likes of you
No creature deserves your status
only a peacock in a petting zoo
You come criticizing, how I’ve been exercising
but clearly you don’t understand the way my legs are moving
Words, stains dripping out of style
Taking pleasure in picking on you
So there you are standing on your couch
Twenty records playing at the same time
I’ve been working years
to bring this to your ears
How dare you break me on the spot?
You’re like buying pork chops in a laundromat
from a vegan in Birkenstocks
You come criticizing, how I’ve been exercising
But it all comes down to being empty
when you don’t know
Your words, stain reputations for miles
Taking pleasure in picking on you
So there you are standing on your couch
Twenty records playing at the same time
With a box of tissues in your left hand
Your cat is licking your pride
All yellow from your right hand
How do you feed yourself?
You dirty boy
You dirty dirty boy
With the yellow hand
You dirty dirty boy
We’re all laughing now
Dirty dirty dirty dirty boy
What have you been eating you (dirty dirty boy)

Hi hello there, how are you doing?
Can I offer a treat?
Something sweet or something bitter
Something bittersweet?
You’ve planted the seeds of love in my brain
My body is down in pain
For some reason I ain’t slouching my back
Everything is back on track
Cause you make me feel alive
You’re keeping me aligned
Sorry baby didn’t catch your name
My head is out playing games
When you’re talking your lips are proposing
Do you feel the same
Shoots are poking the edge of my mind
My body is covered in brine
For some reason I ain’t slouching my back
Everything is back on track
Cause you make me feel alive
You’re keeping me aligned
So there you’ve got it you blew my cover
I’m all in it for love
Your hair is black
Your eyes are green
Your dress as white as a dove
How can I cope with the Spanish accent?
Electric spinal attack
For a moment you got my train derailing
Now everything’s back on track
Cause you make me feel alive
You’re keeping me aligned

I saw you in a magazine, your stare
A paper strip of perfume through your hair
If we meet each other some day, we can dance to the stars
Unless we pretend, we won’t go very far
I saw you in a magazine somewhere
Between mint cigarettes and a sonic blue Corvair
If we meet each other someday, we can kiss to the moon
Unless we pretend, it won’t happen very soon
I guess I know who you're making happy now
How many people are you making happy now?
I saw you in magazine

Remember baby twenty years ago?
I was stepping out of school
you back from Mexico
If my memory serves me right
We met at some anarchist
book convention show
We made love in a small apartment
Was the month of May
I remember clearly I was there for someone else
Must've parted ways for lost of interest
Then came that sudden urge to read a book
I was no anarchist thought I'd better learn to cook
We heated up that small apartment
Hear those robins sing
Why complicate it with somebody else
Incinerate it all back to hell
When I think of you baby it’s taking me somewhere
Please leave me hanging at the bottom of your staircase
For a while
Baby you set my love on fire everyday
Traveled out to many countries
Back and over the moon
Must have reached half our lives
But the end ain’t coming soon
We’ve come a long way
It’s not a feeling, baby I know
We must have at least another 40 years to go
We belong together since the day we’ve met
Why complicate it with somebody else
You have a mind of your own
Getting by your way
Don’t change a thing for me
Incinerate it all back to hell
Baby you set my love on fire everyday

She Loves Everyone
03:32

Blue baby tries to show me
But she don’t see anything
Leaves me hungry without no saying
Closes the door and walks away
And I remember as she goes
Her hair is dancing in the wind
And I remember as she goes
She loves everyone
Blue baby lost the concept of age
Bleeding hearts and empty beds
She plays a part on every stage
She’s got to sacrifice to gain a little fame
Yet she says she loves everyone
But everybody else don’t know
Yet she believes she loves everyone
She loves everyone
She can only do it so many times
You can only do it so many times

Friends

Friends!
Wishing we could all be friends!
I forget how much I need to be when I’m with you
I forget how much I have to give to keep you merry
Friends, you lose some along the way
Friends, some are free and some you pay
I forget how cool I got to look when I’m with you
I forget how hot you need to run, must we be more than two
Friends, they’ll drop you like a glass of wine
Friends, disposable like our times
Some friends are like mamas and papas
Some friends are like sisters and brothers
Some will teach you, some will take, some will give it back
And it goes round and round in a big big fuckin circle again
Friends, you lose some along the way
Friends, keep the ones that make you happy
Friendship lies on love
True Friendship lies on love

There are monkeys, they’ll do what you do
And sheep, they’ll be following you
There are snakes, hissing up your ass
And rats, they’ll take everything you have
Too many people are so many
People
Too many people are so many
All at once
So tell me what is your cool
Factor
Let’s go singing
Toothless and lots of pride
Bring your buddies and friends and girlfriends too
And everybody by your side
And remember
The lesson to be learned in your lifetime
Is to be trying real hard to be somebody else
So tell me what is your cool
Factor
There are monkeys, they’ll do what you do
And sheep, they’ll be following you
There are snakes, hissing up your ass
And rats, they’ll take everything you have
Too many people are so many
People
Too many people are
All at once

What’s on your mind?
Now you can say all you want to the world
You’re free
God hears your voice
What will you say now that you can?
What’s on your mind?

Toi beau comme le merle, tu sors tes fusils
L’un pointé vers moi, l’autre pointé vers le ciel
Remplis d’étincelles
Mais tu tires sans voix
Assis sur ton cheval
Un peu grand pour toi
T’es perché là-haut, avec le soleil
Qui fait briller tes yeux, blondir tes cheveux
Mais fait plisser ta peau
Envole-toi petit merle, retrouve ton bec
Recolle tes ailes
Pour sa liberté, il laissera tomber
Sa famille et ses amis
Ah ce qu’il est bien dans son esthétisme
Comme le doux d’une girafe il a le pelage lisse
Il adore regarder les gens de haut
Mais le pauvre ça lui donne des maux de cou
À force de toujours regarder par en bas
Bleu c’est la couleur de son blouson
Jaune c’est la couleur de ses bottes
Rouge c’est la couleur de son caleçon
Orange c’est la couleur de sa peau
On peut l’apercevoir dans les grandes villes
Dans les centres urbains il se sent bien
Il s’abreuve du regard dans son miroir
Il se nourrit des yeux rivés sur lui
Bronzé

Days Are Nights

You are my lady
You are my sunshine
Together lazy
That’s when our days become nights
All we ever did was to be true
How fragile are the strings, the ones pulling me
and you
All we’ve ever done was to be true
Little strings tangled up in blue
Love will see us through
When our days become nights
When your days are nights
