I've been thinking long and hard about the things you said to me,
like a bitter stranger,
and now I see the long, the short, the middle and what's in between,
I could spit on a stranger,
(pour/pull me out)
you're a bitter stranger.
(pour me out)
Whatever you feel,
whatever it takes,
whenever it's real,
whatever awaits me,
whatever you need,
however so slight,
whenever it leads,
whenever it's right.
Honey I'm a prize and you're a catch
and we're a perfect match,
like two bitter strangers,
and now I see the long,
the short of it and I can make it last,
I could spit on a stranger,
(pour me out)
you're a bitter stranger,
(pour me out)
I could spit on a stranger,
(pour me out)
you're a bitter stranger.
(pour me out)
I see the sunshine in your eyes,
I'll try the things you'll never try,
I'll be the one that leaves
you high...high...high
harness your hopes
Harness your hopes
on just one person
because you know a harness
was only made for one
Don't telegraph your passes
You'll end up with molasses
cauterized in syrup
And syrup and molasses
And I'm checking out the asses
The assets that attract us
To anything that moves
We're deep inside the grooves
And it's time to shake the rations
cause someone's gonna cash in
The plot it turns again
The reference starts at ten
Well show me
A word that rhymes with Pavement
And I won't kill your parents
And roast them on a spit
And a-don't you try to etch it
Or permanently sketch it
Or your gonna catch a bad bad cold
And the freaks have stormed the white house
I moved into a lighthouse
It's on a scenic quay
It's oh so far away
Far away from the beginning
The shroud is made of linen
The yearling took the purse
The goth kid has a hearse
Heart-breaking
Earth-quaking
Kiwis they are home baking
Minds wide open truly
Leisure
A leisure suit is nothing
It's nothing to be proud of
In this late century
And I'm asking you to hold me
Just like the morning paper
Pinched between your pointer
Your index and your thumb
It's a semi-automatic
Believers are ecstaic
You see the way they cling
The cold metallic sting
And I'm living in a coma
For Donna DeVorona
The harness made of hopes
The lovers on the ropes
Nun is to church
As the parrot is to perch
And my Heart's
Wide open Truly
Roll with the wind
Many are the men who get lost around the bend
Solitary rejects with a need to spawn
Well the hell you are a-raisin'
The skirts you are a-chasin'
Gonna send the letter bomb back to you
Roll!
Roll with the wind!
Roll!
Roll with the wind!
______?______ theres always equation
For what you are made up of
what you're gonna be
Wise, you are a shaman and rich
a Boston prominent,
poor, you're just so common
and that's all there is
Roll!
Roll with the wind!
Roll!
Roll with the wind!
Clarity was lost in the guts of the Xerox machine
Say what you need
Say what you mean
Don't keep me guessing
Playing to packed houses
and quiet as church mouses
And building up a circus tent with black ???
Well I get high on action
Heavy tooth compaction
Building up a root canal entre vous
Roll!
Roll with the wind!
Roll!
Roll with the wind!
Charity's new members lost it
so save the reciept
Save the reciept
Save the reciept
Save the reciepts
Don't keep me guessing
You gotta roll!
Roll with the wind!
Roll with the wind!
You gotta roll!
Roll with the wind!
Roll with the wind!
The porpoise and the hand grenade
Patterns diverging
Don't raise the flag
For the sake of a volleyball
Bitters and rag
But you'll never cry
Never collide
When wanderin' the piece of the shakins' you try
There's the pattern of the marketplace
See the value of what you never had
There's the pattern in the target face
See the lick allign when they flounder
There's a porpoise in the hand grenade
There's divergent ways that make me love you
There's an armature and enemas
There's a spangled life that ?????
Columns of acorn
hail from above
Shakin' the trees
Shakin' my love
But my happy Monday
See that it's Monday
my-everything is all the heart? that won't run
There's a matter that we'd like to share
With all who are concerned about progress
It's never gonna get to me
Cause I'm broken and I know I'm wishin'
You're a gib and chain?
You're a cadent chain?
You're a cadent chain?
You're a cadent jane?
Rooftop gambler
Bad Brains drop?
They'll rip you like the Sunday paper
Last clear?
Hold me like a suicide ranger
In his lair
A suicide ranger
Down on saint kitts
I was lost in the haze of
Tax shelters and Mardi Gras
and polluted bays
But My Cadillac mind
Recalls a time
That you walked around
The island
Forty times
drew you whispers from the natives
in their two pin carts? (believe)?
Angel got to see where you hide
She might know when you die
And there's no place to get up
From the rooftop gambler
Weekends Costa Rica with ocho chicas
and the bars it never closes
when you got the frozen noses of
jeff it is the soundtrack
i got to get a heart attack
workin hard...
lights and the feelings
down on your kneeling
whisper to the trees
when you're gone
they're gonna hide you around
they're gonna show me to hide
like a rooftop gambler
