Life living on borrowed time
Reinvest your occasion wine
What will it take for you to be mine
Head sticking in shadows
Hind legs removing all signs
Deep beneath the Planet 9
We will all have unwind
Crime waves through the gallows
While interest rates increase
You’re to burn your fleece
And the policies we knew have been demised
Reign now and complete your grind
For now and for all time
House burning – lives on fire
Flames risin’ or’ shadows
Carelessly you start to whine
Life itself has been behind
How on earth can you make your find
Space crawls ‘round the shallows
While all is lost it seems
God has to redeem
And the politics you’ve made are more conceived
You don’t ever listen to what I’ve got to say
‘Cause what I’ve got has got what you’re not
And I prefer my way
I don’t read no tea leaves; I don’t tell no tale
Name the reason some of us choose not to inhale
All of you by now know what is to be defined
I know I don’t need what you say here on Planet 9

Chained Lady don't you hear my call
The teacher's sitting on a star
He needs someone to talk to him
For he's been looking rather thin to me
Sister White kiss the knight and open wide
I'll have to show me story
Do you call me a fool 'cause I don't fit your rules
Or am I really all that boring
I know that it's not so
'Cause you found yourself
Third stone from the wishing well
And you think you're blessed
Hail to high we just got to try
To make our day
Chained Lady don't you hear my call
As I try to say
I've had enough ... I don't believe you've had enough
In the auditorium the plastic smiles are wearing thin
They're talking about the war again
Though this time they will put an end to them
I'll see you at the cinema
Please warn me if I've gone too far
Schoolmaster wonders who we are
Don't tell him that I've seen the star

Talk tome in twenty years
Hell, do you think I’ll remember
I think I read these lines before
Some time ago when I was still planned for
Man of war take your toll
Keep the fort a’standing
Well don’t you let me see you cry
Christ, you know it ain’t manly
I can hear you say
You want to get away
Hope to see my journey last
Don’t need no one to guide me
For if it ever comes to pass
Where the heel would they be
Soldier boy drop your toy
Don’t listen to your master
Before I die I’ll have to cry
Though for now I’ll just drown in laughter
I want to be free
That’s where I want to be

Spirits On The Move
07:27
|

While the pastime of our lives has been around
Our spirits on the move
And in the misty day old smoke filled nights
Searching for our lead balloon
A mirror helps us to check for our bites
Sell your love in a rented room
I came to you hesitant – a prisoner of where I’d been
They say we need to feel the edges of our soul
It seems to me incorporate
Love and fear and disillusionment
Hold me to the inner wall
Don’t let go
My outer ear explodes and weakness weeps
Destined for the loneliness tonight
Pleasure seeps inside our lives
We start to glow
It’s really happening you and I
I can’t explain the feeling that’s been with me all my life
However empty now it’s done
I came to you hesitant – a prisoner of where I’d been
They say we need to feel the edges of our soul
It seems to me incorporate
Love and fear and disillusionment
Hold me to the inner wall
Don’t let go

The Dogsongs

Suddenly … A Dog
Walking in the twilight corner of my eye
Waiting for that punch clock’s angry smile
Not aware of what I’m about to see
Forced into the action and I catch him looking up at me
Germ activated day saying neon prayers
My head’s full of caffeine, cocaine and stares
Parellelin’ in between the chrome machine
Suddenly … a dog appears – he’s mean
Walking in the street the haze has left my eye
Missionaries burning across the sky
Desperation, segregation alternation on my mind
And then suddenly … a dog puts me out of time
Out of time
