Mofo
Lookin' for to save my save my soul,
Lookin' in the places where no flowers grow,
Lookin' for to fill that GOD shaped hole...
Mother mother sucking rock and roll...
(Been around the back... Been around the front...)
Holy dunc, spacejunk comin' in for the splash,
White dopes on punk staring into the flash,
Lookin' for baby Jesus under the trash...
Mother mother suckin' rock and roll...
Mother (scat singing) rock and roll...
Mother am I still your son,
You know I've waited for so long to hear you say so...
Mother you and made me someone,
Now I'm still a child but no one tells me no...
Lookin' for a sound that's gonna drown out the world,
Lookin' for the father of my two little girls...
Got the swing got the sway got my straw in lemonade,
Still looking for the face I had before the world was made...
Mother mother sucking rock and roll
Bubble poppin' sugar droppin'Rock and roll
(Scat singing)
Woo me sister,
Move me brother,
Soothe me mother,
Rule me father,
Show me mother...
Days passing around each other...
I Will Follow
I was on the outside when you said
You said you needed me
I was looking at myself
I was blind, I could not see
(Hey)
A boy tries hard to be a man
His mother takes him by his hand
If he stops to think he starts to cry
Oh why ?

If you walkaway, walkaway...
Walkaway, walkaway...

When they pulled the four walls down
I was looking through the window
I was lost, I am found
Walkaway, walkaway
Walkaway, walkaway... I will follow
If you walkaway, walkaway,
Walkaway, walkaway...

Even Better Than The Real Thing
Give me one more chance
And you'll be satisfied
Give me two more chances
You won't be denied
Well my heart is where it's always been
My head is somewhere in between
Give me one more chance
Let me be your lover tonight
(Check it out)
You're the real thing
Yeah the real thing
You're the real thing
Even better than the real thing
Give me one last chance
And I'm gonna make you sing
Give me half a chance
To ride on the waves that you bring
You're honey child to a swarm of bees
Gonna blow right through you like a breeze
Give me one last chance
We'll slide down the surface of things
You're the real thing
Yeah the real thing
You're the real thing
Even better than the real thing
We're free to fly the crimson sky
The sun won't melt our wings tonight
Oh now
Here she comes
Take me higher
Take me higher
Can you take me higher ?
Will you take me higher ?
You're the real thing
Yeah the real thing
You're the real thing
Even better than the real thing
Even better than the real thing
Even better than the real thing
Do You Feel Loved
Take these hands,
They're good for nothing...
You know this hands have never worked a day,
Take these boots they're going nowhere...
You know theese boots they don't want to stray,
You got my head filled with songs,
You got my shoelaces undone,
Take my shirt go on take it off me...
You can tear it up,
If you can tie me down...
DO YOU FEEL LOVED ?
DO YOU FEEL LOVED ?
Take the colours of my imagination,
Take the scent hanging in the air,
Take this tangle of a coversation,
And turn it into your own prayer...
With my fingers as you want them,
With my nails in your hide,
With my teeth at your back,
And my tongue to tell you the sweetest lies...
DO YOU FEEL LOVED ?
DO YOU FEEL LOVED ?
And it looks like the Sun but it feels like the rain...
Love's a bully pushing and shoving,
In the belly of a woman...
Heavy rhythm taking over,
To stick together,
A man and a woman...
Stick together,
Man and woman...
Stick together...
DO YOU FEEL LOVED ?
DO YOU FEEL LOVED ?
And it looks like the Sun,
But it feels like the rain,
And there's heat in the Sun to see us through the rain...
Pride (In The Name Of Love)
One man come in the name of love
One man come and go
One man come he to justify
One man to overthrow
In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love
One man caught on a barbed wire fence
One man he resist
One man washed on an empty beach.
One man betrayed with a kiss
In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love
(Nobody like you...)
Early morning, April 4
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky
Free at last, they took your life
They could not take your pride
In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love...
I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
I have climbed the highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you
I have run, I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
Only to be with you
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for.
I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like fire
This burning desire
I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm as the night
I was cold as a stone
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for
I believe in the Kingdom Come
Then all the colours will bleed into one
But yes I'm still running
You broke the bonds
You loosed the chains
You carried the cross
And my shame
And my shame
You know I believe it
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for
Last Night On Earth
She feels the ground is giving way
But she thinks we're better off that way
"The more you take the less you feel,
The less you know the more you believe,
The more you have the more it takes today"...
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
She dosen't care what it's worth,
She's living like it's the last night on earth...
She's not waiting on a saviour to come,
She's at a bus-stop with the NEWS OF THE WORLD...
And the sun sun here it comes,
She's not waiting for anyone...
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
She knows just what it's worth,
She's living like it's the last night on earth...
Slipping away... slip slide... The clock tells her that time is slipping... The world turns and we get dizzy, Minute hands and second sticking... Slipping away... There's something going on she, Might be missing... The world turns and we get dizzy... Is it spinning for you the way it's Spinning for me ?
She's living living next week now,
You know she's going to pay it back somehow...
The future is here at last,
The past is too uncomfortable...
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
YOU GOT TO GIVE IT AWAY
She already knows that hurts,
She's living like it's the last night on earth...
Last night on earth...
Last night on earth...
Gone
You get to feel so guilty got so much for so little,
Then you find that feeling just won't go away...
You're holding on to every little thing so tightly,
'Till there's nothing left for you anyway...
GOODBYE YOU CAN KEEP THIS SUIT OF LIGHTS,
I'LL BE UP WITH THE SUN,
ANDNOTCOMINGDOWN... IMNOTCOMINGDOWN...
IMNOTCOMINGDOWN...
You wanted to get somewhere so badly,
You had to loose yourself along the way...
You change a name but that's okay... it's necessary...
And what you leave behind you don't miss anyway...
GOODBYE YOU CAN KEEP THIS SUIT OF LIGHTS,
I'LL BE UP WITH THE SUN,
ANDNOTCOMINGDOWN... IMNOTCOMINGDOWN...
IMNOTCOMINGDOWN...
AND I'M ALREADY GONE,
FELT that way all along,
Closer to you every day,
Didn't want it that much anyway...
You're taking steps that make you feel dizzy,
Then you get to like the way it feels,
You hurt yourself you hurt your lover...
Then you discover...
What you thought was freedom is just greed...
Goodbye... no emotional goodnight...
I'll be up WITH the sun
Are you still holding on ?
I'm not coming down...
I'm not coming down...
Until The End Of The World
Haven't seen you in quite a while
I was down the hold, just passing time
Last time we met it was a low-lit room
We were as close together as bride and groom
We ate the food, we drank the wine
Everybody having a good time
Except you,
You were talking about the end of the world
I took the money, I spkied your drink
You miss too much these days if you stop to thinks
You led me on with those innocent eyes
And you know I love the element of surprise
In the garden I was playing the tart
I kissed your lips and broke your heart
You, You were acting like it was the end of the world
In my dreams I was drowning my sorrows
But my sorrows they learned to swim
Surrounding me, going down on me
Spilling over the brim
In waves of regret, waves of joy
I reached out for the one I tried to destroy
You, You were acting like it was the end of the world
If God Will Send His Angels
Nobody else here baby,
No one else here to blame,
No one to point the finger...
It's just you and me and the rain...
Nobody made you do it,
No one put words in your mouth...
Nobody here taking orders
when love took a train heading south...
It's the blind leading the blond,
It's the stuff the stuff of country songs...
HEY IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS,
AND IF GOD WILL SEND A SIGN,
AND IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS,
Would everything be alright ?
God has got his phone off the hook babe,
Would he even pick up if He could ?
It's been a while since we saw that child hangin' round this neighbourhood...
See His Mother dealing in a doorway,
See Father Christmas with a begging bowl,
Jesus sister's eyes are blister...
THE HIGH STREET never looked so low...
It's the blind leading the blond...
It's the cops collecting for the cons...
So where is the hope and where is the faith...
And the love ?
What's that you say to me,
Does love... Light up your Christmas tree ?
The next minute you're blowing a fuse,
And the cartoon network turns into the news...
HEY IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS,
AND IF GOD WILL SEND A SIGN,
AND IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS...
WHERE DO WE GO...
Jesus never let me down,
You know Jesus used to show me the score...
Then they put Jesus in show business,
Now it's hard to get in the door...
It's the stuff it's the stuff of country songs,
But I guess it was something to go on...
HEY IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS,
I SURE COULD USE THEM HERE RIGHT NOW,
WELL IF GOD WILL SEND HIS ANGELS...
WHERE DO WE GO...
(Scat singing)
Staring At The Sun - Take 1
Summer stretching on the grass...
Summer dresses pass,
In the shade of a willow tree creeps a crawling over me,
Over me and over you stuck together with God's glue...
It's going to get stickier too...
It's been a long hot summer
I'm not the only one starin' at the ...
Staring At The Sun - Take 2
Summer stretching on the grass...
Summer dresses pass,
In the shade of a willow tree creeps a crawling over me,
Over me and over you stuck together with God's glue...
It's going to get stickier too...
It's been a long hot summer,
Let's go undercover,
Don't try too hard to think...
Don't think at all...
I'm not the only one starin' at the sun,
Afraid of what you'd find if you took a look inside...
Not just deaf and dumb I'm staring at the sun,
Not the only one who's happy to go blind...
There's an insect in your ear if you scratch it won't disappear,
It's gonna itch and burn and sting...
Do you want to see what the scratching brings ?
Waves that leave me out of reach,
Breaking on your back like a beach...
Will we ever live in peace ?
'Cause those that can't do often have to,
Those that can't do often have to...
Preach...
To the ones staring at the sun...
Afraid of what you'll find if you took a look inside...
Not just deaf and dumb... staring at the sun...
I'm not the only one who'd rather go blind...
Intransigence is all around...
Military is still in town,
Armour plated suits and ties...
Daddy just won't say goodbye,
Referee won't blow the whistle,
God is good but will HE listen ?
I'm nearly great,
But there's something I'm missing I left in the duty free,
Though you never really belonged to me...
You're not the only one staring at the sun,
Afraid of what you'd find if you stepped back inside...
I'm not sucking my thumb,
I'm staring at the sun...
Not the only one who's happy to go blind...
