Every creepy pusher is on my ass today
A conniving tank of eels
That kill on Christmas day
Oh they’ve got me hooked on tv
And amnesiatic/an asiatic dream
Of micro chips and techo trips and fashion magazines
Oh they’re taking all my money
They’ve given me all my dreams
They’ll drug you and they’ll mug you and they’ll tear out all your seams
Oh shiny shiny papers oh glory glory be
Oh chop me up and fry me up and feed me to the eels

Oh every creepy pusher
O-oh sha-la-la-la-la-la
Every creepy pusher
O-oh sha-la-la-la-la-la
Every creepy pusher

It’s my own damned fault
Just for letting them in the door
Oh with cherry flavoured samples
That leave you wanting more
And they hope that you die sooner
‘Cause the young are so naïve
With flashy dashy liars that the children will believe

Every creepy pusher
O-oh sha-la-la-la-la-la
Every creepy pusher
O-oh sha-la-la-la-la-la
Every creepy pusher

Every creepy pusher, oh this is what I pray
I hope your ride to hell is a bumpy one
And you get sick on the way

My delicious chocolate cake
My delicious chocolate cake
Lies asleep under the covers
My delicious chocolate cake

My fancy mover when it’s stark
Makes light a miracle when it’s dark
A first class seat on a late night flight
My fancy mover when it’s dark

La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
When there’s nothing to say
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
When there’s nothing, absoultely nothing, to say

Divers at the bottom of the lake
All searching for one more clue to the case
That would be sweet as… but not as sweet as..

My delicious chocolate cake
How much more sweet could I take
Tuesday is your snooze day
And I’ll kiss you when you awake

Oh there’s nothing left to make
There’s nothing left to take
I can’t even lie anymore
And anything worth being
And anything worth seeing
Are not even worth stealing anymore

And I once was rich on a sailing ship
I threw?/fluke? my cap up in the air
And the boat one day sank
I had no one to thank
for my situation but me, o-oh me
but me, o-oh me, but me

And it came crashing down
It was the talk of the town
I’m tired of hearing those words
And give me back silence and patience and loving
And the good things that all of that brings

And chain me and slave me and heavy rotate me
And show me to where I can sleep
Forget where you came from
Forget where you’re going
Forget everything else but me, o-oh me
But me, o-oh me, but me

La-la-la-la, La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, La-la-la-la-la

Let me hold up the sign
Let me follow the line
Sing all the songs that you wrote
Let me change the flag
Get the tail to wag
And clear out the stuff from my throat

Cause the picture is clear
The station is near
And the war is now come to an end
And I fought for a nation
I fought for a woman
I fought for everything but me, o-oh me,
But me, o-oh me, but me.

La-la-la-la, La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, La-la-la-la-la
And you are every bit a soldier

I’m not gonna eat, not gonna sleep
I’m not gonna sleep, not gonna dream
I’m only gonna give my eyes to you
Only gonna give you skies of blue
And candy candy candy covered hearts
Flowers flowers flowers for a start
And then I’ll sing a lovesong down below
Sing it loud enough so that you know

I’ll chain you here so that you’ll have to stay
I’ll gag you so you have nothing to say
I’ll pretty up the room in which you live
Smile really nice so you forgive

I’ll grace you baby with another name
You’ll be the only one for me to blame
For everything that I can never be
Baby I just gotta make you see

That it’s true that I love you
That it’s true that I love you

The television plays your favourite show
The only thing that you should ever know
I like it, babe, when I’m the only one
I could give to you or take away the sun
It’s scary how easy it is to tell you lies
It’s hard to sit there with you when you cry
It’s in a letter that you’ll soon receive
There’s only one thing that you should believe

That it’s true that I love you
That it’s true that I love you

And if I screamed out
And if I screamed out
That it’s true that I love you
That it’s true that I love you
That it’s true that I love you
That it’s true that I love you

Take the keys off the bedroom closet floor
(They fell out of my dreams last night)
And walk right out the door
The door
The door
you you you

I can be a rock if i have to
I can be a rock if i have to
But i’d rather be beside you and your dog
Tonight

I can be a rock in the ocean
Past by westward whales if I have to
But I’d rather be in a tree
spitting pumpkin seeds to the ground with you

Take one last look around
When you go down be sure to call my name
Don’t forget your first time/had
All the same all the while??/All the same although I’ll s...??
That you want to be
The one to me the one to be

Yeah but I can be a rock if I have to
I can be a rock if I have to
I can be a rock in the ocean
In the ocean
In the ocean

I can be your/a rock in the ocean

Some people are going nowhere
Others are just passing time
Before they go there too
And blue blue
And blue aw aw yeah

But you, you’ve got a world full of taxi drivers
Waiting to take you away to the sea
And me, me
And me, I’ll be blue as the sea

But summer monkeys swing from tree to tree
And you were swinging way before you met me
But some map makers do the craziest things when you’re asleep
Like crashing you into me

I think we’re both going somewhere
I bet most folks would agree with me
And I say these roads go to the sea
And for now you share this taxi with me
And for now you share this taxi with me

Running through the castle

The fires around you burn

I'm a ghost here

From somewhere

Watching the fires around you burn

Oh oh oh

Watching the fires around you burn

Oh oh oh

Watching the fires around you burn

There's a fireplace beside your be

There's a candle in the hall

There's a burning to be someone else

When the summer turns to fall

Oh oh oh

Watching the fires around you burn

Oh oh oh

Watching the fires around you burn

And the salamander colour (ouh, ouh)

Goes and washes through the water (ouh, ouh)

And the space beneath the picture (ouh, ouh)

And the comfort that it brought her (ouh, ouh)

And she lights herself a pipe (ouh, ouh)

And sings herself to sleep (ouh, ouh)

Singing

Watching the fires around you burn

Watching the fires around you burn

Watching the fires around you burn

Watching the fires around you burn

Watching the fires around you burn

Watching the fires around you burn

There's a burning to be someone else

When the summer turns to fall

Ride hard if you ride at all

Canadian motorcycle gangs
Are going down south for the winter
No rusty peanut salted streets
They smell the oranges from the border

And let their hair blow
And let their hair blow

Lovers, they get married on the way
They tune their tail pipes for Christmas
Wave at surfers that are crashing in their vans oh
With rock n roll and the smell, the smell of BBQ’s

And let their hair blow
And let their hair blow

For everything there is a time
Oh please baby, please let me breathe you in
Again again again
For everything there is a time
Please baby, let me breathe you in again
Awoohyah/hallelujah?

And baby, you’ll never be old again
These cliffs will make us and bake us
Oh they’ll make us forever

So let your hair blow
So let your hair blow
So let your hair blow

For everything there is a time
So please baby, please make room for me to breathe
To breathe you in like I did last summer
‘Cause it’s gonna be summer everywhere we go
Every where we go, summer everywhere we go

What could i tell you
That wouldnt just scare you
What could I tell you
That wouldn’t send you packing

‘Cause nothing would be good enough for me
Nothing would be good enough for me
Last night I dragged out all the old pictures
I hung up the crutches
And drew up the bridges

And let a simple world fascinate
And a simple structure radiate
And then all that’s left to tailgate
Behind me is the new world

And what could I tell you
That wouldn’t just tear you
Apart from all the movement
Of the night there is no move med

I passed on the papers
I snuffed out the candles
I jumped on a steam train
I lied to a lover

And let a simple world fascinate
And a simple structure radiate
And then all that’s left to tailgate
Behind me is the new world

But maybe if I told you slowly
That we are on our own
That we are the same two falling
Now it’s too far before??

Nothing would be good enough for me
Nothing would be good enough

And let a simple world fascinate
And a simple structure resonate
And then all that’s left to tailgate
Behind me is the new world

Your naked body on the beach
The seagulls bring me soft ice cream
Your naked body on the beach
It’s just nice see
It’s just nice to be here where the land meets the sea
Where the waves beg to move as gracefully
As your naked body on the beach

A little story? this one’s black
He almost had a heart attack
He never thought that we’d come back
So he swam out like a fool
Like a life guard at the pool
Determined to be that
A crazy safety raft
A little story this one’s black

Tall and lean and dark and lovely
The girl from Ipanema’s got nothing
On my sunny tuesday beauty
Lying on the sand

It’s just nice to see
It’s just nice to be here where the land meets the sea
Where the waves beg to move as gracefully
As your naked body on the beach

Oh-ey-oh-aw-aw, oh-ey-oh-aw-aw, oh-ey-oh-aw-aw-aw

Where the waves beg to move as gracefully
Your naked body on the beach
