Sometimes things they happen suddenly,
Grow from a seed into a tree.
When conditions are in harmony,
There’s a blossoming amongst the leaves.

A farmer digs his field up with a plough,
But he cannot control the drought breaking.
Could end up buried in the barren ground

Won’t stay for long,
Feel the autumn light.
Summer’s gone,
The sky begins to cry.
It carries on ’til way into the night.
Carries on ’til the red raw eyes of dawn.

From a drip to a drop,

The big fat bastards eating all the pie
Blow up the balloons
Suck the air out of the sky
Balloons in suits inflating all the time
Corporation ball
Suck the air out of the sky

Show me when to laugh, making children cry

Wind powers our sails
But if it should fail,
Shall we get the motor running?
Need the fuel to run the engine,
To give unto us light.
So we can make a new invention, right?

Batten down the hatches,

Some people say
We’re not getting older
We’re just getting better

The wine will age much better than the face
The candles on the cake seem to spoil the taste
The smile is thin, the skin is thick,
The hands are like a pair of bricks

Buried the money, out by the big old church,
He gave me a funny look: these were his dying words…
Life isn’t funny when you don’t get the work,
Can push a man to the edge,
Come smashing down to earth.
Take care of your mother,
Love her with all my heart.
Please tell her I’m sorry son

I can see your spirit dying
And the tears you’ve never cried.
In the way you walk in circles,
The wind that howls around in the sky.
I know you dream of freedom
But you’re locked up in a zoo.
Want to be the one who frees you
But I’m inside it too.

Don’t stop doing what you do,
‘cos someone is bigger than you.
The devil is drowning a witch,
A captain goes down with his ship.

Does it feel like we’re sinking?
Watch the bubbles rise.
Is that water crawling up my thighs?

A man with an eye for a bargain he could sell you a star in the sky
Take the weight of the world off your shoulders just to get to the shirt on your back
Silver coin for your eye its an offer
Keep the other so you can still cry
Stick your finger in to test the water
Buried up to your neck at low tide

Fingers in the till. You can shout the bill

Never know what tomorrow brings,
To second guess is to wishful think.
What’s ahead and what’s in the rear-view mirror,
It’s much the same when you get right near.

I am scared to be safe,
‘cos I know it can break.
Better off afraid.

Truth is in front of me
Before my eyes
Truth is inside of me
Beneath this disguise
Lost my identity
Memory fried
Don’t know how to do it, but I can’t carry on
Living a lie

Sink or float - don’t rock the boat
Who knows what’s lurking underneath
We are nothing more than meat
Take a bite - take a mouthful
They’ll never lose their appetite

We were hunters

I’m watching the wreck through rose-tinted specs
I prepared for the trip
So long to go.
Run out of road.
Lose control or grind to a halt.

Start clearing the mess, the bits and pieces of what’s left blow away
Don’t want to play

I know what you’re scheming,
You have been privately dreaming.
Eyes soon will be streaming,
Room full of jewels, quietly gleaming.
Know what you are thinking,
I must have been drinking.
I know what you’re scheming,
I caught you dreaming.

I lie awake and I am haunted by the water,
I toss and turn, I’m at the mercy of the sea.
The wild wind that fills the sails of an armada,
Could tear this ship apart and be the death of me.

So strapped into the bed I struggle like a hurricane,
The hurricane that is the nightmare of the sea.
I fear under the ship a monster waits to swallow me,

Cannot leave the home without spending dough
Don’t go to the city. Everything must go
Everything goes up. Doesn’t come back down
Beans burn in the kitchen. Traffic slows me down

So now that winter’s on its way
Cold winds blowing
Give me a reason why I ought to stay

Fell off the wagon
I lost my grip upon the reins
Time is dragging
I think I need a drink again
No one sees me
Live between heartbeats and my
Breathing is shallow
I was depending on them

Everything you want, wave the magic wand.
I will pull a trick, wave the magic stick.
Maybe the hand is quicker than the eye,
You might know things but might not know why.
Magic, you don’t always get it right,
Hoping that the well won’t run dry.

I pulled a rabbit out the hat

I dreamed I would play in the movies.
They gave me a moment to shine.
The script‘s written, how could they do this?
Don’t have any lines.

I’m stuck in the role of a monster,
I have to come out of a hole.
Could do so much better,

The devil on my shoulder says go right ahead if you want it
There’s no harm in a little kiss but a little kiss is where it started
The poison and the remedy they’re in cahoots you see, running a racket
Listen to this cacophony and wait impatiently for the tonic

I’m from this planet but feel like I’ve just landed
Invited to a tragic comedy
There’s no word for it. I ain’t got no category

Ba - ba ba ba ba ba
Ba - Ba -Ba - ba oh ba

Ba - ba ba ba ba ba
Ba - Ba -Ba - ba oh ba

I will be here,
My monument will stand.
