Baby-Making Bodies

You're an island sinking into
Oceans grand of work and man
and the mother tongue you play upon
wins them over, but the work is never done...

Hit Parade
02:47
|

|
We all stood and watched as the hit parade
Made it's way, made it's way to the stadium
They were talking about the axis
About the foreign war
But I don't want to hear about this ish anymore...

Rally Song

Say hello to the city night sky
My friends have hearts that lie silently there tonight
Say hello to the lines on fire
Sending hope to a girl who's lost amidst the wires
Well we all know the girl is down and out
But do we rally, rally round or let her down? x2
Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my
My city surges as we fight against time
Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my
We sit transfixed as the lights go flashing by
Well we all know the girl is down and out
But do we rally, rally round or let her down? x2
Can't see you past, heads in the crowd
I'm standing up without letting you down
The sound of wind with that of cars
You sound so close to be gone so far

Modulation
02:19
|
|||
|
Here comes the 8th
like clockwork with no relation to
the girls I roll around with
a lunar modulation
that brings me to my knees
and drives me to a distraction
I could no sooner part with than relieve...

The Body Politic
03:21

I dreamt that I married, I married a sultan
And he taught me, he taught me to breed
Unbending family trees drawn from the strongest seed
So the dynasty repeats, but the blood horse always bleeds
And you're just a man, you do what you can
I still have my own two hands
To wash and weed
To sow the seed
Until your heart returns to me
We're touch and go again
Body and soul again
We rock and roll again
Body and soul again
We finish to begin again
The sun comes up
The day just ends
And I don't want to lead you on
I know you're not that kind of man
We're touch and go again
Body and soul again
We rock and roll again
Body and soul again

Little Kensington

|
When it got dark on Sunday Evening
I could have slept outside
As the evening broke around me
Like a motherless child
Ask not what your conscience can do for you
But what you can do for it willfully
Suffering inconstancy
Giving out too liberally
Setting out to see
As I'm about to love you
I really must leave
Please do not insist
Please do not insist
These things so far from where you are
You don't belong to me
Your hands let go
You'd sunk so low
You don't belong to me

The Accident
02:56
|
|||
|
I'm not going out tonight
I'm going to feel better with or without
Cause I took back
And I'm learning what it feels like
To just let it go
And I lift it off
And the sadness is helping me
Feel beautiful...
|

9. |
||||
|
It's a beautiful secret, a beautiful secret, a beautiful secret
I'd rather not keep
It's a dutiful soldier, a dutiful soldier, a dutiful soldier
I'd rather not be
When the rockets red glare
The bombs bursting in air...

Oh my god.
Over and over again.
