Rose Tinted Glass
Arthur was a maker a true in gloss
His heart's a real strong giver in fair undertakings
Fair man undertaker will you carry the cross
Bang your resounding drum to half century last
Marvellous will you straighten the branch
Bury the hatchet resounding in
Half the cast never last taker
Trapped in emotions that neither will we say
Big powdered up in rose tinted glass
She took a chance a preferred way of life than making cars
She sallied on down from the tardy and dark
Editing the east soakers with the nest of balm
To the gutter my friend
A hardy beast for a strong kind
So he tore the veil from your mind
Hardy beast for a strong kind
So he tore the veil from your mind
And loved to hear the thunder under the stars
And bestowed in the rain her hand
And drenched took the scent of lavender to calm them
He tore the veil of your secret self
And danced with it feeling its wealth
Rallied round sauntered down to
The secret life under the stairs
Rallied round sauntered down to
The secret life under the stairs
Come fashion everything down
In our heads
secret lives I know
secret lives I know
secret lives I know
A course in discourse
Of having the habit of feeling quite static was in me I say
Was it a habit or just a tragic
Feeling unattached dear
Feeling feeling now
I'll be with you if you want me
We'll go up to the roof
From under the stairs
People do come and go
Life is formed then they go out
They go out
Here's to the randomness
That brings excitement and doubt
Excitement
Captured today necessary they say and they win
They say and they
Here's to the randomness
That brings excitement and doubt
Excitement

Red Sky

Red Sky
Modern stuff is the love like the things that we like we like
Mortal call trawling round from the hive that we like we like
And in the clearing she bared to see her mother's stare
It's a fair undertaking to follow the cue
Partly oblivious a-mocking the frost
It's a sundry happening a little confused
Century breaker a-tied to the cross
It's afford undertaker if couldn’t have the lot
It's a fair undertaking to go over the top
It's red sky for my delight
'Cause I can go wherever I like
Trawling round this mortal call
Give her a clearing and all
I'll take the modern stuff as revelation
And all the cars we have are coming into view
I'll take your busted nation as an imitation
It's red sky for my delight
'Cause I can go wherever I like
Trawling round this mortal call
Give her a clearing and all
Resounding in numbers and banging the gong
Never come malice never was wrong
Modern stuff is the love like the things that we like we like
Mortal call trawling round from the hive that we like we like

Fever of Intimacy
Somebody laid with you and I thought you wouldn't know
Somebody shared with you and you thought it couldn't be this way
Mesmerized his bloated core
I'm scratching at the marks for her
Stood it on the floor
A fever of intimacy a coward's match
A travesty embarrassing
It hurts to shop the fools
Feel like a two stone wrestler a man with a dent
A shaming apology for something well kept
I'm scratching at the marks for her
I'm coming off love
Is it a definite final act
And is he coming off love
And realising some sort of fatal glory
That lies in your pocket
He'd ride on your robe then loosen all hope
Just to see it clearly then close it up
Ready for go
You're taking it over nobody lay down
On the ground today
Somebody laid with you and I thought you wouldn't know
Somebody shared with you and you thought it couldn't be this way
Somebody laid with you and I thought you wouldn't know
Somebody shared with you and you thought it couldn't be this way
He feared for her
Invited her
He stayed with her
Would have loved her
Suited his wildest station
A definite final act
An evidence of feeling
Hysteria or love
Shaming then apologising
He thought he was cured of it
Somebody laid with you and I thought you wouldn't know
Somebody shared with you and you thought it couldn't be this way
Ain't no words for giving evidence of feeling
There is time for living and lightness of being
You're taking it over nobody lay down
To be put on the list of a bloody breakdown
The wildest station of a yes let's stay
Task is met and regress and full-dress
On the ground today

I Made Time
I made time I know that I have
Always held it tight in my hands
'Cause like sand it slips through fingers
Disappear into the abyss
I got friends I know that I have
Constantly involved with small things
Run around in circles of time
Know way out exhausting in flight
You fill time I know that I see
Doing things important some things
Filling time no seconds to waste
Little time for bigger questions
It takes time
It takes time
To do nothing
I made time wanted that
You fill time with what you do
Work it out
I made time wanted that
I made time
It takes time
It takes time
To do nothing

Numb-Down Days
Look at the people running around just want to show it
People from their planet they just stand for not know it
Ruling aloud caught at the station in a fix
Believing in anything
That they are told
Clowns in the hold
Fooling around
At the edge of the town
You only see red don't you
See you do
What's with the people arming themselves for Armageddon
Believing in the baseless facts
That god is there
And the earth is flat
And listen to the preacher man
Who looks a lot like Santa Claus
Oh look hallelujah
He doth sing
Oh look hallelujah they do sing
So many people running around up the creek
Craving an enemy so they can really blow it
A future of numbed-down days are going to the show it

Living Habits of The Unadapted
You are talking like somebody
Who only has a body
And you're chirping on again to say like to say like
To say like to say like to say like
And guided slight of hand brings
A bit of body and a wipe of the slate clean
A nervous thinker sigh sings
Lipstick smeared in the safer day thing's
A killing rifle for doubtful use
Shoot
She Rallied round her worn and frayed
A southern like mourner on an out of date
A great taker who can bang the gong
A daggered face of a rich affront
It's all love like a birthday cake
A time of the dolls and an overfull jail
Living habits of the unadapted
Due information a pat on the back
Confirmation was a lack of facts
Talk of the day as a rhyming effected
The living habits of the unadapted
Mincing up words with mind separation
It hurts to take pleasure marked down for the breaking
Look at the world with its mind blowing chorus
Raise a glass to the undertaker
Living habits of the unadapted
Living habits of the unadapted
Due information a pat on the back
Confirmation was a lack of facts
Talk of the day as a rhyming effected
The living habits of the unadapted
Living habits of the unadapted
Living habits of the unadapted
Unadapted
A killing rifle for doubtful use
Shoot
She Rallied round her worn and frayed
A southern like mourner on an out of date
A great taker who can bang the gong
A daggered face of a rich affront
It's all love like a birthday cake
A time of the dolls and an overfull jail
Living habits of the unadapted

(Faith)
It's not special in the morning
Like it was before
It's another thing already
Looking at the thaw
Your life was upon me
As tender as can be
Climbing up my feelings
You reached my top
Then all of my understandings
Were shot to hell
And our positions were infringing
And we couldn't tell
Oh for heavens sake
It was worth it
I shared a part of my life
Believing
I believe in your touch
Have faith be special be you
I believe in your way
Your heart your mind
I believe in your touch
Have faith be special be you
I believe in your way
Your heart your mind
