Do you think she's swimming in your lies?
Do you think it's all just murky green?
Don't you think that she would realize?
Yeah, do you think she has never seen?

Cause when the seaweed sinks and the sun gets low,
When the waves retire to the darkness below,
I know, I know Ruby sees all.
I know, I know Ruby sees.

I can feel the pressure building high.
You should see you're headed for a storm.
Don't you see it building in the sky?
Don't you think it's time to swim to shore?

I've had other guys
I've looked into their eyes
But I never knew love before
'Til you walked through my door
I've had other lips
I've sailed a thousand ships
But no matter where I go
You're the one for me baby this I know, 'cause it's

[Chorus:]

True love
You're the one I'm dreaming of
Your heart fits me like a glove
And I'm gonna be true blue baby I love you

I've heard all the lines
I've cried oh so many times
Those tear drops they won't fall again
I'm so excited 'cause you're my best friend
So if you should ever doubt
Wonder what love is all about
Just think back and remember dear
Those words whispered in your ear, I said

[chorus twice]

[Intermediate:]

No more sadness, I kiss it good-bye
The sun is bursting right out of the sky
I searched the whole world for someone like you
Don't you know, don't you know that it's

True love, oh baby, true love, oh baby
True love, oh baby, true love it's
[repeat]

True, so if you should ever doubt
Wonder what love is all about
Just think back and remember dear
Those words whispered in your ear, I said

[intermediate]
[chorus]

'Cause it's

She brings the sunshine to a rainy afternoon;
She puts the sweetness in, stirs it with a spoon.
She watches for my moods, never brings me down;
She puts the sweetness in, all around.
She knows just what to say to make me feel so good inside.
And when Im all alone I feel I dont want to hide, hide, hide.

Today she brought me in, told me where shed been;
She put my mind at rest, put the sweetness in.
Ill ask her for some time to go and look around;
She puts the sweetness in with a sound.
She knows just what to say to make a sunny day.
And when Im all alone I really dont feel that way.
Tell me, how would you feel with no world
Of your own and nobody to hold?
I just cant see the way; Im so glad its today
And youre here, youre here.

She brings the sunshine to a rainy afternoon;
She puts the sweetness in, stirs it with a spoon.
She watches for my moods, never brings me down;
She puts the sweetness in, all around.

And when Im all alone I really dont feel that way.

I want a girl with a mind like a diamond
I want a girl who knows whats best
I want a girl with shoes that cut
And eyes that burn like cigarettes
I want a girl with the right allocation
Whos fast, and thorough, and sharp as a tack
Shes playing with her jewelry, shes putting up her hair
Shes touring the facility and picking up slack
I want a girl with a short skirt,
And a loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong jacket

I want a girl who gets up early
I want a girl who stays up late
I want a girl with uninterrupted prosperity
Who uses a machetti to cut through red tape
With fingernails that shine like justice
And a voice that is dark like tinted glass
She is fast, thorough, and sharp as a tack
Shes touring the facility and picking up slack
I want a girl with a short skirt,
And a looooooooooooooong, looooong jackeeeet

I want a girl with a smooth liquidation
I want a girl with good dividends
At citi bank we will meet accidentally
Well start to talk when she borrows my pen
She wants a car with a cup holder arm rest
She wants a car that will get her there
Shes changing her name from kiddy to karen
Shes trading her mg for a white chrysler le barron
I want a girl with a short skirt,
And a
Looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong

I'm so tired, I haven't slept a wink
I'm so tired, my mind is on the blink
I wonder should I get up and fix myself a drink
No,no,no.

I'm so tired I don't know what to do
I'm so tired my mind is set on you
I wonder should I call you but I know what you would do

You'd say I'm putting you on
But it's no joke, it's doing me harm
You know I can't sleep, I can't stop my brain
You know it's three weeks, I'm going insane
You know I'd give you everything I've got
for a little peace of mind

I'm so tired, I'm feeling so upset
Although I'm so tired I'll have another cigarette
And curse Sir Walter Raleigh
He was such a stupid git.

Well I was born an original sinner.
I was born from original sin.
And if I had a dollar bill
For all the things I've done
There'd be a mountain of money
Piled up to my chin...

My mother told me good
My mother told me strong.
She said "be true to yourself
And you can't go wrong."
"But there's just one thing
That you must understand."
"You can fool with your brother -
But don't mess with a missionary
man."

Don't mess with a missionary man.
Don't mess with a missionary man.

Well the missionary man
He's got God on his side.
He's got the saints and apostles
Backin' up from behind.
Black eyed looks from those Bible
books.

He's a man with a mission
Got a serious mind.
There was a woman in the jungle
And a monkey on a tree.
The missionary man he was followin'
me.

He said "stop what you're doing."
"Get down upon your knees."
"I've got a message for you that you
better believe."

Well I was born an original sinner.

Easily amused
Found my nest of salt

Sunburn with freezerburn
Choking on the ashes of her enemies

Friend is a four letter word.

Call me morbid or absurd.

The nighttime shaddows disappear
And with that go all your tears, baby
For the mornings will bring joy
For every girl and boy
Don't let the sun catch you crying

You know that crying's not a bad thing
But stop your crying when the birds sing

Just don't forget that love's just a game
And it can always come again
So don't let the sun catch you crying
Don't let the sun catch you crying, baby

Stairway To Heaven

There's a lady who's sure all that
glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
And when she gets there she knows
If the stores are closed
With a word she can get what she came for

There's a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
Cause you know sometimes words have
Two meanings
In a tree by the brook there's a songbird
Who sings sometimes
All of our thoughts are misgiven

There's a feeling I get when I look
To the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke
through the trees
And the voices of those who stand looking

And it's whispered that soon if we all
call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those
who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter

And it makes me wonder

If there's a bustle in your hedgegrow
Don't be alarmed now
It's just a spring clean for the May-Queen
Yes there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on

Your head is humming and it won't go-In case you don't know
The pipers calling you to join him
Dear Lady can you hear the wind blow
and did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind

Prepare yourself you know it's a must
Gotta have a friend in Jesus
So you know that when you die
He's gonna recommend you
To the spirit in the sky
Gonna recommend you
To the spirit in the sky
That's where you're gonna go when you die
When you die and they lay you to rest
You're gonna go to the place that's the best

Never been a sinner I never sinned
I got a friend in Jesus
So you know that when I die
He's gonna set me up with
The spirit in the sky
Oh set me up with the spirit in the sky
That's where I'm gonna go when I die
When I die and they lay me to rest
I'm gonna go to the place that's the best
Go to the place that's the best

Well, she was just 17,
You know what i mean,
And the way she looked was way beyond compare.
So how could i dance with another (ooh)
And i saw her standin' there.

Well she looked at me, and i, i could see
That before too long i'd fall in love with her.
She wouldn't dance with another (whooh)
And i saw her standin' there.

Well, my heart went "boom,"
When i crossed that room,
And i held her hand in mine...

Whoah, we danced through the night,
And we held each other tight,
And before too long i fell in love with her.
Now i'll never dance with another (whooh)
Since i saw her standing there

The sweetest perfection
To call my own
The slightest correction
Couldnt finely hone
The sweetest infection
Of body and mind
Sweetest injection
Of any kind

I stop and I stare too much
Afraid that I care too much
And I hardly dare to touch
For fear that the spell may be broken

When I need a drug in me
And it brings out the thug in me
Feel something tugging me
Then I want the real thing not tokens

The sweetest perfection
To call my own
The slightest correction
Couldnt finely hone
The sweetest infection
Of body and mind
Sweetest injection
Of any kind

Things youd expect to be
Having effect on me
Pass undetectedly
But everyone knows what has got me
Takes me completely
Touches so sweetly
Reaches so deeply
I know that nothing can stop me

Sweetest perfection
An offer was made
An assorted collection
But I wouldnt trade

The sweetest perfection
To call my own
The slightest correction
Couldnt finely hone
The sweetest infection
Of body and mind
Sweetest injection
Of any kind

Harry got up
Dressed all in black
Went down to the station
And he never came back
They found his clothing
Scattered somewhere down the track
And he wont be down on wall street
In the morning

He had a home
The love of a girl
But men get lost sometimes
As years unfold
One day he crossed some line
And he was too much in this world
But I guess it doesnt matter anymore

In a new york minute
Everything can change
In a new york minute
Things can get pretty strange
In a new york minute
Everything can change
In a new york minute

Lying here in the darkness
I hear the sirens wail
Somebody going to emergency
Somebodys going to jail
If you find somebody to love in this world
You better hand on tooth and nail
The wolf is always at the door

In a new york minute
Everything can change
In a new york minute
Things can get a little strange
In a new york minute
Everything can change
In a new york minute

And in these days
When darkness falls early
And people rush home
To the ones they love
You better take a fools advice
And tak care of your own
One day theyre here;
Next day theyre gone

I pulled my coat around my shoulders
And took a walk down through the park
The leaves were falling around me
The groaning city in the gathering dark
On some solitary rock
A desperate lover left his mark,
baby, Ive changed. please come back.

What the head makes cloudy
The heart makes very clear
The days were so much brighter
In the time when she was here
But I know theres somebody somewhere
Make these dark clouds disappear
Until that day, I have to believe
I believe, I believe

Springtime, and the acacias are blooming
Southern california will see one more day
Dreamland, and busness is booming,
The birds are a singing as I drift away

She looks another year older,
From too many lovers who used her and ran
But some nights, oh, she looks like an angel
And shes always willing to hold you again

So give her this dance,
She cant be forsaken
Learn how to love her with all of her faults

She gave more than shes taken,
And Ill go down doing the hollywood waltz

Springtime and the lady is grieving
The lovers just stand there with nothing to say
They got what they wanted,
Theyre packing and leaving
To look for another to love the same way

One of these nights
One of these crazy old nights
Were gonna find out
Pretty mama
What turns on your lights
The full moon is calling
The fever is high
And the wicked wind whispers
And moans

You got your demons
You got desires
Well, I got a few of my own

Oo, someone to be kind to in
Between the dark and the light
Oo, coming right behind you
Swear Im gonna find you
One of these nights

One of these dreams
One of these lost and lonely dreams
Were gonna find one
One that really screams

Ive been searching for the daughter
Of the devil himself
Ive been searching for an angel in white
Ive been waiting for a woman whos a little
Of both
And I can feel her but shes nowhere
In sight

Oo, loneliness will blind you
In between the wrong and the right
Oo, coming right behind you
Swear Im gonna find you
One of these nights

He moves his words like a prize fighter
The frenzied pace of the mind inside the cell

The man on the street might just as well be

Higher and Higher

Blasting, Billowing, Bursting Forth with the
power of ten billion butterfly sneezes,
Man with his flaming pyre has conquered the
wayward breezes,
Climbing to tranquility far above the cloud,
Conceiving the heaven clear of misty shroud.

Higher and Higher now we've learned to
play with fire,
We go higher and higher and higher.

Vast Vision must improve our sight
and perhaps at last we'll see,
An end to our homes endless blight
and the beginning of the Free,
Climb to tranquility finding its real worth
Conceiving the heavens flourishing on Earth.

Higher and Higher now we've learned to
play with fire,
We go higher and higher and higher.

Floating

Floating free as a bird
Sixty foot leaps it's so absurd
From up here you should see the view
Such a lot of space for me and you

Oh you'll like it,
Gliding around, get your feet off the ground
Oh you'll like it,
Do as you please with so much ease.

Now I know how it feels
To have wings on my heels
To take a stroll among the stars
Get a close look at planet Mars.

Oh you'd like it,
Gliding around, get your feet off the ground
Oh you'll like it,
Do as you please with so much ease.

Bouncing about on the Moon
Guess you'll all be up here soon
The candy stores will be brand new
And you'll buy rock with the Moon right through

Watching and Waiting, for a friend to play with
Why have I been alone so long.

Mole he is burrowing, his way to the sunlight,
He knows there's someone so strong.

Cos here there's lots of room for doing
The things you've always been denied
So look and gather all you want to
There's no one here to stop you trying.

Soon you will see me, cos, I'll be all around you
But where I come from I can't tell
Don't be alarmed by my fields and my forests
They're here for only you to share.
