People on the platforms; Waiting for the trains; I can hear their hearts a-beatin'; Like pendulums swinging on chains
your pleasure knows no limits
No time to suffer or blink; And no time to think
Either I'm too sensitive or else I'm gettin' soft.
He said his name was Columbus; I just said, "Good luck."
Try to be pure at heart, they arrest you for robbery,; Mistake your shyness for aloofness, your shyness for snobbery
Truth is an arrow and the gate is narrow that it passes through
Never could learn to drink that blood; And call it wine
Trees that've stood for a thousand years suddenly will fall.
They said it was the land of milk and honey,; now they say it's the land of money.; Who ever thought they could ever make that stick.
People are crazy and times are strange
I'm listening to Neil Young, I gotta turn up the sound; Someone's always yelling turn it down
Praise be to Nero's Neptune; The Titanic sails at dawn; And everybody's shouting; Which Side Are You On?
Don't even hear a murmur of a prayer; It's not dark yet, but it's getting there.
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
Just like you I'm wondrin' what I'm doin' here.; Just like you I'm wondrin' what's goin' on.
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane?
Lost time is not found again
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley
I'm just sitting here beating on my trumpet
When we meet again; Introduced as friends; Please don't let on that you knew me when; I was hungry and it was your world.
Don’t think twice, it’s all right
In order to deal in this game, got to make the queen disappear,; It's done with a flick of the wrist.
All the people we used to know; Are an illusion to me now
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.
Your magnetic movements; Still capture the minutes I'm in.
Let the wind blow low, let the wind blow high.; One day the little boy and the little girl were both baked in a pie.
The man in me will hide sometimes to keep from bein' seen,; But that's just because he doesn't want to turn into some machine.
Oh it's rush hour now; On the wheel and the plow; And the sun is going down; Upon the sacred cow.
Gonna sleep down in the parlor; And relive my dreams
How long can I stay drunk on fear out in the wilderness?
When my life is over, it'll be like a puff of smoke
Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
If he needs a third eye he just grows it
Can't you hear that motor turnin'?; Automobile comin' into style
the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming
You got a lotta nerve; To say you are my friend
Don't know if I saw you, if I would kiss you or kill you; It probably wouldn't matter to you anyhow
I been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down
We're idiots, babe.; It's a wonder we can even feed ourselves.
Insanity is smashing up against my soul; You can say I was on anything but a roll; If I had a conscience, well I just might blow my top; What would I do with it anyway ; Maybe take it to the pawn shop
Now, I can't go back to what was, baby,; I can't unring the bell.
I must admit I felt a little uneasy; When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoe
You say my kisses are not like his,; But this time I'm not gonna tell you why that is.
Sometimes I wonder what it's gonna take; To find dignity
They'll stone ya when you're at the breakfast table.
How can I explain?; Oh, it's so hard to get on
you remind me of something that used to be; somethin' that crossed over from another century
Twenty years of schoolin' and they put you on the day shift
All my friends have told me; If I hang around with you; That I'll go blind
Handy dandy, he got a basket of flowers and a bag full or sorrow
if every bone in his body was broken he would never admit it
Ain't no altars on this long and lonesome road
Oh what dear daughter 'neath the sun; Would treat a father so,; To wait upon him hand and foot; And always tell him, "No"?
Someday, everything is gonna be smooth like a rhapsody
We sat in an empty theater and we kissed,; I asked ya please to cross me off-a your list.
