Big Thing
Get it up get it out get it in time
Hang it up hanging out hanging on a big thing
Move it in move it out move up the line
Bang it up bang it out banging on a big thingBrothers and sisters let me hear it
Get it up get it on get it in time
Give me the green light and watch me move it
Move it up move it out move up the line
This is temptation power rotation
Give me the friction and watch me make it
Make it up making out making it slideSo glad you came along
This time you won't be wrong
You love to turn it on
And you'renot the only oneBrothers and sisters we can take it
Shake it up shake it out shake it all the time
Give me the suction we can stick it
Lick it up suck it up stick it outside
This is temptation (station)
Power rotation (to station)
Give me the playlist and watch me eat it
Eat it up beat it up beat it in timeSo glad you came along
This time you won't be wrong
You love to turn it on
And you'renot the only oneGet it up get it out get it in time
Hang it up hanging out hanging on a big thing
Move it in move it out move up the line
Bang it up bang it out banging on a big thingGet it up get it out get it in time
Hang it up hanging out hanging on a big thing
Move it in move it out move up the line
Bang it up bang it out banging on a big thing -
I Don't Want Your Love
I don't mind if you're keeping someone else behind
I don't care 'cause you've got something I can shareHey, take a chance, even if it's only
Only while we're dancing in the
Light of your second sight because
When you understand me
You might feel good around me now.[CHORUS]
I don't want your love to bring me down
I don't want your love so turn it aroundI won't turn you out if you've got someone else
Someone else you care about
Because you must realise
My obsessive fascination is in your imagination[CHORUS]
Your rhythym is the power to move me
It's something you control completely
I don't want your love
I don't want your loveI like noise 'cause I like waking up the house
I cannot sit down. I can't shut my mouth
But when you understand me,
You might feel good around me[CHORUS]
Your rhythym is the power to move me
It's something you control completely
I don't want your love
I don't want your love -
All She Wants Is
All she wants is
All she wants is
All she wants isSpend your money on the corner now
Know you've gotta save some
For the shoeshine boys
You've been pulling 'em
By the hand inside
Oh...collecting all your toys
If you need a lead heaven now,
Just stick around--
You're going to be there
What do you dare?
What do you care?
What does your heart say now?All she wants is
All she wants is
All she wants isDivine intervention
Couldn't keep the word
From leaking out
With your pleasure in suspension
Not to mention
What you hang it around
If you need a lead to heaven, yeah
A place to share
In every position
What do you dare?
What do you care?
What does your heart say now?All she wants is
All she wants is
All she wants isMore...
All she wants is [repeat to fade]

Too Late Marlene
Waking out of nowhere
And I let you in
Til my imagination went for a spin
I seen you every night
Been making out since then
And still I wonder why everybody's saying
That ice is thin.And I think I know you
Just a little bit by nowA
And I think I can show you
You see baby, I don't want to fight about itSend down your rain
Then who's to blame
And you'll understand
Because its' much too late to changeAwaken to this hunger
And then watch my heat
Grow paler than the moonlight
That you made me eat
And if we run our lives
Along a one way street
We'll always wonder why everytime
It still tastes just as sweetSend down your rain
Then who's to blame
You'll understand
Because it's much too late to change
I will explain
We're to much the same
No I won't leave
Because it's just too late Marlene -
Drug (It's Just A State Of Mind) (Original Mix)
Take me every morning
Take me every night
Take me when you're feeling low
Take me when you want to stay
Up all nightBefore you slip into the white
There's something i want you to know
In all your stretch of consciousness
You've still got a long way to go
Some make you spin,
Some make you sweat,
It's only here for you to choose
Some like it hot,
But I like it wet, so tell me...
What have we got to lose now?Take me every morning
Take me every night
Take me when you're feeling low
Take me when you want to stay
Up all night(a hit, a hit)
A hit to fit reality
It's just a state of mind
And you, and it, it's more than just
And that's what you've got to find
We'll make you spin,
We'll make you sweat
All you have to do is choose me
And if you would try
And alternative high
Then tell me, what have we got to lose now?Take me every morning
Take me every night
Take me when you're feeling low
Take me when you want to stay
Up all nightTake me every morning
Take me every night
Take me when you're feeling low
Take me when you want to stay
Up all night -
Do You Believe In Shame?
Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in shame?
And if love can conquer all
Then why do we only feel the pain?I heard you speak my name
Heard you singing The Stones
Maybe heard you laughing in a line of static
On my telephoneSo why your eyelids are closed,
Inside a case of rust
And did you have to change
All your poets fire into frozen dustI've tried to justify it to learn from your mistake
But where's the stupid lie that has to make it's point
With such a pointless wasteCome out
Do you believe in shame?
Do you believe in love?
And if they taste the same
Would you love again or abandon both?I don't think I ever can
Belive my friend has gone
Keep saying it's alright I'm going to bring you back
But I know I'm wrongThere's nothing I can say
There's nothing left to do
It's just that lately I feel so damn lonely
When I think of youAnd it may seem selfish now
But I'll hold on to the memory
Until all this fear is washed away
Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in life?
'Cos I believe a little part of you inside of me
Will never die... -
Palomino
She lays on the wall
Watching the strangers drift away
Mid-day's ore--thick
With the sun of ArabiaShe surrenders her voices
They gather, on the wind
Talkin, chanting, breathing
Into her body...yesterdayAwakened beside
The scent of burnt sugar--on the skin
Painting eyes--thick
With the color she brings in
Oh, and sure and strong
When the lightning tumbles down
Don't you frown
Everything will be
In time for this eveningIf there's secrets
She has to be pardoned to
Every one of them
If there's heaven
She gets to the heartAnd you'll know...
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Help me rise instead
Then I will run to you
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Give me rain instead
Now let me run... (let me run)[synthwash / piano interlude]
If there's secrets
She has to be pardoned to
Every one of them
If there's heaven
She gets to the heartAnd you'll know...
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Help me rise instead
Then I will run to you
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Give me rain instead
Now let me run... (let me run)Hey-hey....
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Help me rise instead
Then I will run to you
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Give me rain instead
Then I will run to you[repeat to fade]

Land
Baby, I'm really sorry
To break your dream
When it's so early
Headlights
On the windowpane
They're getting lost
In the light of dayTomorrow is today
And soon my ship will sailAway from here
To walk a howling sealane
Stay for me
Your love is life
For love is landBaby, just hear my story
Before I leave
Before we write the end
Standing, across the ocean stream
I'll need to know
I'll need your country thenTomorrow and today
You keep my landfall safeAway from here (away from here)
To walk a howling sealane (away from you)
Stay for me (stay for me)
I need your love to land
Away from here (away from here)
To walk a howling sealane (away from you)
Stay for me (stay for me)
Your love is life, for love is landAway from here (away from here)
To walk a howling sealane (away from you)
Stay for me (stay for me)
I need your love to land
Away from here (away from here)
To walk a howling sealane (away from you)
Stay for me (stay for me)
Your love is life, for love is landLove is land
Love is land
Love is land -
The Edge Of America
Walk the edge of America
A concrete beach to scrape my hand
Inside the subway stinking fear and shame
Becomes the violent breathVigilantes out on dawn patrol
But now there's nothing left to hide
I'm just a number on the metal fence
Which marks the great divideHey boy
Give your dreams a rest
If you're tired of searching
This is where it ends
There's nothing left to lose
Nothing to protest
Learn to love your anger now
Anger here is all you possess
Welcome to the ageBelow the towers of the citadel
Seems someone overlooked the cost
Forgotten soldier of paradise
Now paradise is lostRecognition never realized
Salvation lost among the crowd
So tell me beside this sterile sea
Where is your nation now?And we say
Hey boy
Give your dreams a rest
If you're tired of searching
This is where it ends
There's nothing left to lose
Nothing to protest
Learn to love your anger now
Anger here is all you possess
Welcome to the edge

Hungry Like The Wolf (Big Thing Live)
Darken the city, night is a wire
Steam in the subway, earth is a afire
Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo
Woman, you want me, give me a sign
And catch my breathing even closer behind
Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo
In touch with the ground
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Smell like I sound, I'm lost in a crowd
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Straddle the line in discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Mouth is alive, with juices like wine
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Stalked in the forest, too close to hide
I'll be upon you by the moonlight side
Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo
High blood drumming on your skin, it's so tight
You feel my heat, I'm just a moment behind
Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo
In touch with the ground
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
A scent and a sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine, I'm after you
Mouth is alive, all running inside
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Burning the ground, I break from the crowd
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
I smell like I sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
Mouth is alive, with juices like wine
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Burning the ground, I break from the crowd
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
Scent and a sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
Mouth is alive all running inside -
Do You Believe In Shame? (Big Thing Live)
Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in shame?
And if love can conquer all then why
Do we only feel the pain?
I heard you speak my name.
Heard you singing The Stones
Maybe heard you laughing in a line of static
On my telephone.
So why your eyelids are closed
Inside a case of rust?
And did you have to change all your poet's fire
To frozen dust.
I try to justify it
To learn from your mistake.
But where's the stupid lie that has to make its point
With such a pointless waste?
Come out
Do you believe in shame?
Do you believe in love?
And if they taste the same would you love again
Or abandon both?
I don't think I ever can believe my friend is gone
Keep saying it's all right, I'm gonna bring you back
But I know I'm wrong.
There's nothing I can say
There's nothing left to do
It's just that lately I've been so damn lonely when
I think of you.
And it may seem selfish now but I'll hold on to
The memory until all this fear is washed away.
Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in life?
Cause I believe a little part of you inside of me
Will never die.
Cause I believe a little part of you inside of me
Will never die
Cause I believe a little part of you inside of me
Will never die.
Cause I believe a little part of you inside of me
Will never die.

Hey...
Spend your money on the corner now,
Know you've gotta save some for the shoeshine boy
You've been pulling them by the hand inside,
Oh... collecting all your toys.
If you need a lead to heaven now, just stick around
You're going to be there.
What do you care?
What do you dare?
What does your heart say now?
All she wants is...
All she wants is...
All she wants is...
Divine intervention, couldn't keep the word from leaking out,
With your pleasure in suspension
Not to mention what you hang it around
If you need a lead to heaven,
A place to share
In every position.
What do you care?
What do you dare?
What does your heart say now?
All she wants is...
All she wants is...
All she wants is...

This Is How A Road Gets Made / Winter Marches On (Big Thing Live)
This is how a road gets made
Somebody walked on a virgin land
Someone else saw their tracks
And followed them, leaving a path
It seemed as though
I were looking down the hill when I first saw it
But as I walked on, I realized I was going up
Somebody whistled behind
And turning round, they seemed far below
Then I came to where there
Had been a fire and was shaded
From the sun by the trees
Figure of eight, it's our year, it always was
Credentials
Made of Earth
Drinks water
Breathes air
Makes fire -
Palomino (Big Thing Live)
She lays on the wall
Watching the strangers drift away
Mid-day's aura thick
With the sun of Arabia
She surrenders her voices
They gather on the wind
Talking, chanting, breathing
Into her body, yesterdays
Awakened beside
The scent of burned sugar on her skin
Painting eyes thick
With the color she brings in
Always sure and strong
When the lightning tumbles down
Don't you frown
Everything will be
In time for this evening
If there's secrets
She has to be party to
Every one of them
If there's heaven
She gets to the heart
And you'll wonder
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Help me rise instead
Now I can run to you
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Give me red instead
Now let me run (now let me run)
If there's secrets
She has to be party to
Every one of them
If there's heaven
She gets to the heart
And you'll know
Just why she says
When I run out of blue
Help me rise instead
Now I can run to you
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Give me red instead
Now let me run (let me run)
Hey hey
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Help me rise instead
Now I can run to you
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Give me red instead
Now I can run to you
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Help me rise instead
Now I can run to you
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Give me red instead
Now I can run to you
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Help me rise instead
Now I can run to you -
Too Late Marlene (Big Thing Live)
Waking out of nowhere
And I let you in
Til my imagination went for a spin
I seen you every night
Been making out since then
And still I wonder why everybody's saying
That ice is thin
And I think I know you
Just a little bit by now
And I think I can show you
You see baby, I don't want to fight about it
Send down your rain
Then who's to blame
And you'll understand
Because it's much too late to change
Awaken to this hunger
And then watch my heat
Grow paler than the moonlight
That you made me eat
And if we run our lives
Along a one way street
We'll always wonder why everytime
It still tastes just as sweet
And I think I know you
Just a little bit by now
And I think I can show you
You see baby, I don't want to fight about it
Send down your rain
Then who's to blame
You'll understand
Because it's much too late to change
I will explain
We're too much the same
No I won't leave
Because it's just too late Marlene
You see baby, I don't want to fight about it
Send down your rain
Then who's to blame
You'll understand
Because it's much too late to change
I will explain
We're too much the same
No I won't leave
Because it's just too late Marlene

Girls On Film (Big Thing Live)
See them walking hand in hand
Across the bridge at midnight
Heads turning as the lights flashing out
Are so bright
And walk right out to the four line track
There's a camera rolling on her back
On her back
And I sense a rhythm humming in a frenzy
All the way down her spine
Girls on film
Girls on film
Girls on film
Girls on film
Lipstick cherry all over the lens as she's falling
And miles of sharp blue water coming in
Where she lies
The diving man's coming up for air
'Cause the crowd all love pulling dolly by the hair
By the hair
And she wonders how she ever got here
As she goes under again
Girls on film (two minutes later)
Girls on film
Girls on film (got your picture)
Girls on film
Wider, baby, smile and you've just made a million
Fuses pumping live heat twisting out on a wire
Take one last glimpse into the night
I'm touching close
I'm holding bright
Holding tight
Give me shudders in a whisper
Take me up 'til I'm shooting a star
Girls on film (she's more than a lady)
Girls on film
Girls on film (two minutes later)
Girls on film
Girls on film (see you together)
Girls on film
Girls on film (see you later)
Girls on film -
Notorious (Big Thing Live)
No-no-Notorious. Notorious. Ah. No-no-Notorious
I can't read about it
Burns the skin from your eyes
I'll do fine without it
Here's one you don't compromise
Lies come hard in disguise
They need to fight it out
Not wild about it
Lay your seedy judgments
Who says they're part of our lives
You own the money
You control the witness
I'll leave you lonely
Don't monkey with my business
You pay the prophets to justify your reasons
I heard your promise, but I don't believe it
That's why I've done it again
No-no-Notorious
Girls will keep the secrets (uh)
So long as boys make a noise
Fools run rings to break up
Something they'll never destroy
Grand Notorious slam (bam)
And who really gives a damn for a flaky bandit
Don't ask me to bleed about it
I need this blood to survive
You own the money
You control the witness
I'll leave you lonely
Don't monkey with my business
You pay the prophets to justify your reasons
I heard your promise, but I don't believe it
That's why I've done it again
No-no-Notorious
Notorious
Notorious
You own the money
You control the witness
I'll leave you lonely
Don't monkey with my business
You pay the prophets to justify your reasons
I heard your promise, but I don't believe it
You own the money
You control the witness
I'll leave you lonely
Don't monkey with my business
You pay the prophets to justify your reasons
I heard your promise, but I don't believe it
That's why I've done it again. No-no-Notorious
That's why I've done it again. No. No
That's why I've done it again. No-no-Notorious
That's why I've done it again. No-no-Notorious
No-no-Notorious. Yeah
That's why I've done it again. No-no-Notorious -
Skin Trade (Big Thing Live)
Working on the weekend baby
She's working all through the night.
A jump into the deep end,
Gave her the evidence she required.
Take five, she's got pearls,
Don't fake it when it comes to making money -
So... she smiles, but that's cruel
If you knew what she'd think, if you knew what she was after...
Sometimes she wonders... and she laughs in her frustration
Would someone please explain...
The reason for this strange behaviour
In exploitation's name...
We must be working for the skin trade.
Doctors of the revolution gave us, the medicine we desired.
Besides being absolutely painless it's a question of compromise
You've got steel, it's so cool,
Get angry at the weekend then go back to school
So big deal, it's what rules
When it comes to making money, say yes, please, thank you...
Sometimes you wonder, and you ask yourself the question
Would someone please explain...
The reason for this strange behaviour
In exploitation's name...
We must be working for the skin trade.
Would someone please explain...
The reason for this strange behaviour
In exploitation's name...
We must be working for the skin trade.
I know the answer... but I'm asking you the question...
Would someone please explain...
The reason for this strange behaviour
In exploitation's name...
We must be working for the skin trade.

Is There Something I Should Know? (Big Thing Live)
Please please tell me now
Please please tell me now
Please please tell me now
Please please tell me now
I made a break I run out yesterday
Tried to find my mountain hideaway
Maybe next year maybe no go
I know you're watching me every minute of the day yeah
I've seen the signs and the looks and the pictures
They give your game away yeah
There's a dream that strings the road
With broken glass for us to hold
And I cut so far before I had to say
Please please tell me now
Is there something I should know
Is there something I should say
That would make you come my way
Do you feel the same 'cos you don't let it show
People stare and cross the road from me
And jungle drums they all clear the way for me
Can you read my mind can you see in the snow
And fiery demons all dance
When you walk through that door
Don't say you're easy on me
You're about as easy as a nuclear war
Cos the dream that strings the road
With broken glass for us to hold
And I got so far before I had to say
Please please tell me now
Is there something I should know
Is there something I should say
That would make you come my way
Do you feel the same 'cos you don't let it show
Please please tell me now
Is there something I should know
Please please tell me now
Can you see what makes me blow
Please please tell me now
Is there something I should know
Is there something I should say
That would make you come my way -
The Wild Boys / Drug (Big Thing Live)
Wild boys, wild boys, wild boys
Wild boys
The wild boys are calling on their way back from the fire
In August moon's surrender to a dust cloud on the rise
Wild boys fallen far from glory, reckless and so hungered
On the razor's edge you trail because there's murder
By the roadside in a sore afraid new world
They tried to break us, looks like they'll try again
Wild boys never lose it
Wild boys never chose this way
Wild boys never close your eyes
Wild boys always shine
You got sirens for a welcome, there's bloodstain for your pain
And your telephone been ringing while you're dancing in the rain
Wild boys wonder where is glory, where is all you angels
Now the figureheads have fell
And lovers war with arrows over secrets they could tell
They tried to tame you, looks like they'll try again
Wild boys never lose it
Wild boys never chose this way
Wild boys never close your eyes
Wild boys always shine
Wild boys, wild boys, wild boys
Wild boys, wild boys, wild boys
Wild boys never lose it
Wild boys never chose this way
Wild boys never close your eyes
Wild boys always
Wild boys never lose it
Wild boys never chose this way
Wild boys never close your eyes
Wild boys always
Wild boys never lose it
Wild boys never chose this way
Wild boys never close your eyes -
The Reflex (Big Thing Live)
You've gone too far this time
But I'm dancing on the Valentine
I tell you somebody's fooling around
With my chances on the danger line
I'll cross that bridge when I find it
Another day to make my stand, oh woah
High time is no time for deciding
If I should find a helping hand, oh woah
Why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it
Oh, why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it
The reflex is a lonely child, who's waiting by the park
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover, isn't that bizarre?
And every little thing the reflex does
Leaves you answered with a question mark
I'm on a ride and I want to get off
But they won't slow down the roundabout
I sold the Renoir and TV set
Don't wanna be around when this gets out
So, why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it
Why don't you use it?
The reflex is a lonely child, he's waiting in the park
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover, isn't that bizarre?
And every little thing the reflex does
Leaves an answer with a question mark, play
So, why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it
The reflex is a lonely child who's waiting by the park
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover, isn't that bizarre?
And every little thing the reflex does
Leaves me answered with a question mark
Oh, the reflex, what a game, he's hiding all the cards
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark -
Rio (Big Thing Live)
Moving on the floor now, babe, you're a bird of paradise
Cherry ice cream smile, I suppose it's very nice
With a step to your left and a flick to the right, you catch that mirror way out west
You know you're something special and you look like you're the best
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines, she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio, dance across the Rio Grande
I've seen you on the beach and I've seen you on TV
Two of a billion stars, it means so much to me
Like a birthday or a pretty view
But then I'm sure that you know it's just for you
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines, she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio, dance across the Rio Grande
Hey now, wooh, look at that, did she nearly run you down?
At the end of the drive, the lawmen arrive
You make me feel alive, alive, alive
I'll take my chance, 'cause luck is on my side or something
I know what you're thinking, I'll tell you something, I know what you're thinking
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twists across a dusty land
And when she shines, she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio, dance across the Rio Grande
Her name is Rio, she don't need to understand
And I might find her if I'm looking like I can
Oh Rio, Rio, hear them shout across the land
From mountains in the north down to the Rio Grande -
The Edge Of America (Big Thing Live)
Walk the edge of America
Concrete beach to scrape my hand
Inside the subway stinking fear and shame
Becomes the violent breath.
Vigilantes out on dawn patrol
But now there's nothing left to hide
I'm just a number on the metal fence
Which marks the great divide.
Sing it
Hey boy, give your dreams a rest
If you're tired of searching this is where it ends
There's nothing left to lose
Nothing to protest
Learn to love your anger now
Anger here is all you possess.
Welcome to the edge.
Below the towers of the citadel
Seems someone overlooked the cost.
Forgotten soldier of Paradise
Now Paradise is lost.
Recognition never realized
Salvation lost among the crowd
So tell me here beside the sterile sea
Where is your nation now?
And we say
Hey boy, give your dreams a rest
If you're tired of searching this is where it ends
There's nothing left to lose
Nothing to protest
Learn to love your anger now
Anger here is all you possess.
Welcome to the edge. -
I Don't Want Your Love
I don't mind, if you're keeping someone else behind
I don't care
'Cause you've got something I can share
Hey, take your chance, even if it's only
Only while we're dancing in the light
Of your second sight
Because when you understand me
You might feel good around me now
I don't want your love to bring me down
I don't want your love so turn it around
I won't turn you out, if you've got someone else
Someone else you care about
Because you must realize
My obsessive fascination is in your imagination, now pick it up
I don't want your love to bring me down
(I don't want your love, I don't want your love)
I don't want your love so turn it around
(I don't want your love, I don't want your love)
Your rhythm is the power, to move me
It's something you control, completely
I don't want your love, I don't want your love
(I don't want your love)
I like noise, 'cause I like waking up the house
I cannot sit down, I can't shut my mouth
But when you understand me
You might feel good around me, now back it up
Your rhythm is the power, to move me
It's something you control, completely
I don't want your love, I don't want your love
(I don't want your love)
I don't want your love to bring me down
(I don't want your love, I don't want your love)
I don't want your love so turn it around
(I don't want your love, I don't want your love
I don't want your love
(I don't want your love)
I don't want your love
(I don't want your love)
I don't want your love
(I don't want your love). -
All She Wants Is

All she wants is...
All she wants is...
All she wants is...
All she wants is...
All she wants is...
Hey...
Spend your money on the corner now,
Know you've gotta save some for the shoeshine boy
You've been pulling them by the hand inside,
Oh... collecting all your toys.
If you need a lead to heaven now, just stick around
You're going to be there.
What do you care?
What do you dare?
What does your heart say now?
All she wants is...
All she wants is...
All she wants is...
Divine intervention, couldn't keep the word from leaking out,
With your pleasure in suspension
Not to mention what you hang it around
If you need a lead to heaven,
A place to share
In every position.
What do you care?
What do you dare?
What does your heart say now?
All she wants is...
All she wants is...
All she wants is...
More!
All she wants is...
All she wants is...
All she wants is...
All she wants is...
All she wants is...
All she wants is... -
Do You Believe In Shame?
Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in shame?
And if love can conquer all then why
Do we only feel the pain?
I heard you speak my name.
Heard you singing The Stones
Maybe heard you laughing in a line of static
On my telephone.
So why your eyelids are closed
Inside a case of rust?
And did you have to change all your poet's fire
To frozen dust.
I try to justify it
To learn from your mistake.
But where's the stupid lie that has to make its point
With such a pointless waste?
Come out
Do you believe in shame?
Do you believe in love?
And if they taste the same would you love again
Or abandon both?
I don't think I ever can believe my friend is gone
Keep saying it's all right, I'm gonna bring you back
But I know I'm wrong.
There's nothing I can say
There's nothing left to do
It's just that lately I've been so damn lonely when
I think of you.
And it may seem selfish now but I'll hold on to
The memory until all this fear is washed away.
Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in life?
Cause I believe a little part of you inside of me
Will never die.
Cause I believe a little part of you inside of me
Will never die
Cause I believe a little part of you inside of me
Will never die.
Cause I believe a little part of you inside of me
Will never die.
Oooooo-hey
Oooooo-hey
Oooooo-hey
