El Presidente’

Searched for years and when they found me
They sewed black crosses on my eyes
Sold me down the river, pulled the trigger
Told those awful lies
But I’m comin thru
My voice is comin from your TV
CD, email across your sky
I’ve got you under my little thumb
And if you run, I’ve got my spies
But I’m comin thru

Race You Towards the Sun
04:30
|
|||
I’m all along your freeways
I’m floating in your air
Solar powder in my rocket
White flowers in my hair
I watched you live in darkness
And die in your despair
I’ve sailed across to greet you
With flowers in my hair
I say I’ll race you toward the sun
Toward the sun
If you’ve slipped into my channel
Here’s a visor for the glare
Gonna light you like a candle
Set you soaring like a flare
Be my brave assistant
And from their windows they will stare
As we sail across their rooftops
With flowers in our hair
We’ll say I’ll race you toward the sun
Toward the sun

Tell Me Tell Me
02:46
|

Tell me tell me
Or should I ask
Would it be cruel or spiteful
If I beg
Break a leg
I chip a tooth
Smash the window
Torch the roof
Tell me tell me
I save my pennies
I scrap my job
Wrestle voices in a fog
Tell Me tell me

Wife
01:11
|
|||
She shimmers like the gold
Radiant and cold beneath the altar
Dwarfed by the ruins on a starry night
She waits for dawn to come
And take her as a bride
As a wife

Hilda

Kissing spells, wishing wells
Long drives in the rain
Broken-hearted you remain
Mission bells, the ocean swells
They’re playin Sunday games
In the garden you remain
Little hell, the family sells
Their conversations wane
But your still in the picture frame

All Against Me Now
02:41
|
|||
Truthless, loveless, faceless, rageful
Tyrants always fallen
But you know I go and on and on
All against me now
They were all against me anyhow
All of you passionless vipers
Head for your holes, I’m lightin fires
And marchin down mainstreet with seventeen Uilliean pipes
Playin a freedom chorus
All against me now
You were all against me anyhow

Behind the Grapevine
01:53
|
|||
You say you’d meet me behind the grapevine
Just as friends, just to talk
But you show up late, make conversation
Misguided, with no heart
But I’m no fool, I’ve been there before
I let you play your part
And wait for sunrise behind the grapevine
Without you in the dark

Time Alone
03:07
|
|||
Frightened finding things that sustain me
Boxed up in a hall
And I said I would never trade them
For some time alone
For some time alone
For some time alone

Fiery Pit
03:06
|
|||
Catch him flashing from the TV
He’s passing easily through the words
Down where dreaming never sleeps
Where he’s the beast who leads the herd
The glory bird who rises from the fiery pit
Above atomic wasteland

Mrs. Brown
03:05
|
|||
If you’re ever lost Mrs. Brown
If you ever feel like I do
Just blow your whistle, hang it on high
I’ll be comin round for you
Maybe I’ll come in a carriage
Burst from the forest into freezing rain
As it freezes over
A winter wonderland

Through the Window

|

Through the window and into your arms
I go callin your name
But down below poor people only know what remains

Nell
02:55
|

Seems like these days will never end
She spends countless lives drownin
Takes a pill to resurface again
If you ask her she’d tell you that her ships comin in
Come to sail her away
She’s just waitin
Just waitin

Henry's Ghost

Their laughter from the floor rises up
Reaches my elevator door
A mighty echo in the hall continues on
On and on
