„Monarchy Of Roses“
The crimson tide is flowing through your fingers as you sleep
The promise of a clean regime are promises we keep.
Do you like it rough I ask and are you on to task?
The calicoes of Pettibon where cultures come to clash
And Mary wants to build it up, and Sherri wants to tear it all back down, girl
The saviour of your light
The monarchy of roses
The monarchy of roses tonight
The cross between my former queen, her legendary stare
The holy tears of Ireland, a lovely cross to bare
And Mary wants to raise it up, and Sherri wants to spin it all around, girl
The sailors of the night
The monarchy of roses
The monarchy of roses tonight [Chorus:] Several of my best friends wear, the colors of the crown
And Mary wants to build it up, and Sherri wants to tear it all back down, girl
The saviour of your light
The monarchy of roses
The monarchy of roses
Hey yeah
We all want the rose you know
I said
Hey yeah
Show us love before you go
Say I will then say I want to
The story knows that I will never taunt you
Hey yeah
We all want the rose you know
I said
Hey yeah
Show us love before you go
Say I will then say I want to
The story knows that I will always haunt you
Hey
„Factory Of Faith“
All my life I was swinging for the fence,
I was looking for the triple,
Never playing good defence
Gunnin’ for the glitter,
Every hot and heavy hitter,
She was never really there so I couldn’t really get her
I said
Factually I, I’m just a piece of it
Factually I, the very least of it
Piece of work, I was really quite a jerk
Keeping score is such a bore, a busy mind can go berserk
Oh feast on this, I was fishing for a hook
So I took a little trip, and I opened up the book
I said
Factually I, I’m just a piece of it
Factually I, the very least of it
Factually I, is just a medicine
Make you wanna cry, why don’t they let us in?
Tell your friends, I got a factory of faith
Late last night, I had a dream that it was great
Tell your friends, I got a factory of faith
I got a factory of…
Crack your whip, she’s confessing from the hip
She was good at getting there, but not as much for round-trip
Oh all this time, I was searching for a dream
I was slippin’ in and out of every other sex machine
I said
Factually I, I’m just a piece of it
Factually I, the very least of it
Factually I, is just a medicine
Makes you wanna cry, why don’d they let us in?
Tell your friends, I got a factory of faith
Late last night, I had a dream that it was great
Tell your friends, I got a factory of faith
I got a factory of…
Be my wife, I think you right that we should mate
Tell your friends, I got a factory of faith
Late last night, I had a dream that it was great
Tell your friends, I got a factory of faith
I got a factory of…
Faith
And love
And luh-ooh-uh-ooh-uh-ooh-uh-ooh-ove
„Brendan’s Death Song“
If I die before I get it done
Will you decide
Take my words and turn them
Into signs that will survive
Because a long time ago
I knew not to deprive
It’s safe out there and now you’re everywhere
Just like the skies
You are love you are the love supreme
You are the rise
And when you hear this
You’ll know it’s your jam
It’s your goodbye
You know I’m almost dead
You know I’m almost gone
And when the drummer drums
He’s gonna play my song
To carry me along
Like I said you know I’m almost dead
You know I’m almost gone
And when the boatman comes
To ferry me away
To where we all belong
We all crossed when we were feeling lost
It’s just the tide
Katari cried the day her lover died
She recognized
Because he gave her
A life of real love
It’s no surprise
The nights are long
But the years are short
When you’re alive
Way back when would never be again
It was a time
It’s gonna catch you
So glad I met you
To walk the line
You know I’m almost gone
And when the drummer drums
He’s gonna play my song
To carry me along
Like I said you know I’m almost dead
You know I’m almost gone
And when the boatman comes
To ferry me away
To where we all belong
Come get me
Hey!
Hey!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
You know I’m almost gone
And when the drummer drums
He’s gonna play my song
To carry me along
Like I said you know I’m almost dead
You know I’m almost gone
And when the boatman comes to ferry me away
To where we all belong
Let me live
So when it’s time to die
Even the reaper cries
Let me die
So when it’s time to live
Another son will rise
I said yeah, yeah, yeah
I said yeah, yeah, yeah
You know I’m almost gone
(I said yeah, yeah, yeah)
And when the drummer drums
He’s gonna play my song
To carry me along
(I said yeah, yeah, yeah)
Like I said you know I’m almost dead
You know I’m almost gone
(I said yeah, yeah, yeah)
And when the boatman comes to ferry me away
To where we all belong
(I said yeah, yeah, yeah)
Like I said you know I’m almost dead
You know I’m almost gone
Like I said you know I’m almost dead
You know I’m almost gone
Like I said you know I’m almost dead
You know I’m almost gone
„Ethiopia“
[Flea:] „We’re rolling everybody. It starts with bass.“E I O I E I A
When you give your love away
You get a feeling for
E I O I E I A
Live to love another day
even when you feel unsure
More and more I wanna raise
Raise my bar
And raise your stakes
E I O I E I A
When I lie they’re wide awake
For my son I’ll make
I love him so

So he knows
Lost in Ethiopia
We walk out in that road

Somethin’ good gonna come your way
Just look out your door

No matter what you might incur

More and more and more
Each day
I love him so
Tell him
So he knows
Lost in Ethiopia
We walk out in that road
„Annie Wants A Baby“
Lucy Rebar
She’s a friend of mine
Later she’ll go
Back and redefine the line
It’s getting longer all the time
Oh yeah
Drinking sunshine
She likes the taste of it
She had a gold mine
but then she wasted it away
You should have seen her yesterday
Oh yeah
Sing along the way
Nothing stops the ache
Sugar daddy
Loves her madly
Cosma shiva
Got off
Made you a believer
I don’t need to
Tender
Why do I believe you?
Annie wants a baby now
Annie wants a baby
Any way she can
Missing pieces
She’s got a lot of them
Time decreases
I wish I thought of them
– before
Before it’s time
To close the store
Oh yeah
Distillation
A lonely sycophant
Some liberation
The only seed
We ever plant
I wanna help you
But I can’t
No no
Sing along the way
Nothing stops the ache
Sugar daddy
Loves her madly
Love ‘er leave ‘er
Got off
Made you a believer
Neon soldiers
Left her
Now you’ve gotten older
Annie wants a baby now
Annie wants a baby
Any way she can
It’s getting longer all the time
It’s time to redesign the sign
Oh yeah
Sing along the way
„Look Around“
Woo!
Stiff club
It’s my nature
Custom love
Is the nomenclature
Turn down
Mass confusion
Hit the road
‘Cause we just keep cruisin’
Double my fun
Double my vision
Long hard look
At my last decision
Hustle here
Hustle there
Hustle me bitch
And you best beware
It’s emotional
And I told you so
But you had to know
So I told you
Soft walk
To horizon
One big crash
That no one dies in
This for the folks in Fayetteville
It’ll come true if you say it will
Look around
Look around
All around
All around
All around
Look around
Look around
Look around
All around
All around
All around
It’s emotional
And I told you so
But you had to know
So I told you
Please don’t look right through me
Hurts my heart
When you do that to me
Street life
Out my window
City made breeze
Gonna stroke my skindow
Just a lotta words
On an old brick wall
Robbin’ lotta banks
Gotta pedigree scrawl
Put my peg
Into your square
Run around like we just don’t care
Look around
Look around
All around
All around
All around
Look around
Look around
Look around
All around
Oh yeah
Woo!
[Bridge x4:] Move it ah gotta get ya, wanna get youMove it ah gotta get ya, gonna get you [Chorus:] Look around
Look around
Look around
All around
All around
All around
Look around
Look around
Look around
All around
All around
Oh yeah [Outro:] When I’m feeling small and I’m
hitting a wall
Wanna feel it all around
„The Adventures Of Rain Dance Maggie“
[Verse] Lip stick junkieDebunked the all in one, she
Came back wearing a smile
Lookin’ like someone drugged me
That wanted to unplug me
No one here is on trial
It’s just a turnaround
And we go, oh
And then we go oh oh oh oh
Tick tock I want to
Rock you like the 80s
Cock blockin’ isn’t allowed
Tugboat Sheila
Is into memorabilia
Who said three is a crowd
We better get it on the go
We’ve got to make it rain somehow
She told me to
And showed me what to do
Our Maggie makes it in a cloud
I said hey now
We’ve got to make it rain somehow
She told me to
And showed me what to do
She knows how to make it loud
Advances to the final
Who knew that she had the goods
Little did I know her body
Was warm delicious vinyl
To your neck of the woods
I want to lick a little bit [Chorus] Hey now
We’ve got to make it rain somehow
She told me to
And showed me what to do
Our Maggie makes it in a cloud [Bridge] You’ve got the wrong girl
But not for long girl
It’s in the song girl
‘Cause I’ll be gone girl [Chorus] Hey now
We’ve got to make it rain somehow
She told me to
And showed me what to do
Our Maggie makes it in a cloud
I said hey now
I want to rock this rowdy crowd
She told me to
And showed me what to do
She knows how to make it loud
It’s in the song girl
‘Cause I’ll be gone ‘bye ‘bye ‘bye yeah
‘Bye ‘bye ‘bye girl [Scat]
‘Bye ‘bye girl
‘Bye ‘bye girl
‘Bye ‘bye
„Did I Let You Know“
C’mon c’mon
[Verse 1:] I’m comin’ for ya‘Cause I adore ya
I’d like to get inside
Your mass production
This indecision
Has got me cringing
I can’t resist the smell
Of your seduction
Did I let you know
Would you like to go
Unwrap the package
Without much persuasion
Did I let you know
Would you like to go
I wanna dance to
Everyday’s occasion [Chorus:] This I know
This I know
(Take me home, well take me home)
This I know
We’re not alone
(Take me home, take me home) [Verse 2:] When we envision
Lack of division
The planet does
Another revolution
The day I blew on ya
You said I grew on ya
Turns out that we are
All the one solution
GO! [Trumpet Solo]
I’m comin’ at you
Year of the cat too
I like the sound of
Your articulations
Want to arouse her
And maybe espouse her
She showed me love
Without the stipulations
Get Jan and Dean on ya
Time to sway
A little mass perception
I like you cheeky
Oh so Mozambiquey
I think the world could use
A clear connection [Chorus x2]
Did I let you know
Would you like to go
Did I let you know
Would you like to go
Did I let you know
Would you like to go
„Goodbye Hooray“
Woop Woop! Ha
Junior pimp at old cafe
Got to change those girls around
Westbound, drunk with lots to say
But he never makes a sound
Hustlers get what they deserve
but it’s always half the gate
Good things come to those who wait
Like an expiration date
I’ll see you around
I’ll play all night
Can’t get uptight
I lead all your mind games astray
Well I’ll see you around
I’ll see you around
I’ll play all night
Can’t get uptight
See you, so long, goodbye, hooray
Curb your tongue oh scallywag
Because you’ve got no flag to wave
Save your breath for the black and white
Every dog will have his day
I’ll see you around
I’ll play all night
Can’t get uptight
I lead all your mind games astray
Well I’ll see you around
I’ll see you around
I’ll play all night
Can’t get uptight
See you, so long, goodbye, hooray
Well I’ll see you around, I’ll see you around
[Bass Solo]Aw yeah
Aw yeah
Aw yeah
I’ll see you around
I’ll play all night
Can’t get uptight
I lead all your mind games astray
Well I’ll see you around
I’ll see you around
I’ll play all night
Can’t get uptight
See you, so long, goodbye, hooray
I’ll see you around
I’ll see you around
I’ll see you around
I’ll see you around
I’ll see you around
Goodbye and hooray
Well I’ll see you around, I’ll see you around oh nah nah no!
[Guitar Solo]„Happiness Loves Company“
Start marchin’
‘Cause you think you shot to #1
Counting days and
skipping your stones into the sun
Over age and under thumb
Does it weigh a ton
I’ll be yours tonight,
Living the dream of a meteorite
Start jumping ’cause
We’ve got something to say
Young lovers keep it pumping
In the streets of LA
Short stroking doesn’t fly
Better to go for broke
Whatchu smoking Mary Jane
And does it make you choke
Jumping the fence, riding the rails
Can you take a joke
I’ll be yours today
Living the dream with a capital K
Start jumping ’cause
We’ve got something to say
Young lovers keep it pumping
In the streets of LA
Tell me now, I’ll tell you how
Just show me where to send
Make time for love and your happiness
The mothers of invention are the best
We all know and struggle with some loneliness
A tender mess for everyone, I guess
Half blinded
I’m reminded how to find the stairs
Nickel and dimin’
Think it’s time
To play some musical chairs
Dirty laundry
What a quandary
Ask her if she cares
I’ll be yours and more
better than ever like never before
Start jumping ’cause
We’ve got something to say
Young lovers keep it pumping
In the streets of LA
Make time for love and your happiness
The mothers of invention are the best
We all know and struggle with some loneliness
A tender mess for everyone, I guess
Sweet talkin’
As I’m walkin’ thru your part of town
Never again
Will Johnny C a Love Supreme be found
Is it ever meant to be
And is it so profound
Is it you and me
A billion to one make history
Said yeah
Oh yeah
Said yeah
Oh yeah
Said yeah
Oh yeah
„Police Station“
Saw you at the police station
And it breaks my heart to say
Your eyes had wandered off
To something distant
Cold and grey
I guess you didn’t see it coming
Someone’s gotten used to slumming
Dreaming of the golden years
I see you had to change careers
Far away
But we both know it’s somewhere
I saw you on the back page
Of some free press yesterday
The driftwood in your eyes
Said nothing short of love for pay
I know you from another picture
Of someone with the most conviction
We used to read the funny papers
Fool around and pulled some capers
Not today
I send a message to her
A message that I’m coming
Coming to pursue her
I rest my face on your bed
I’ve got you ten times over
I’ll chase you down
‘Til you’re dead
I saw you on a TV station
And it made me want to pray
An empty shell of loveliness
Now dusted with decay
What happened to the funny paper
Smiling was your money maker
Someone ought to situate her
Find a way to educate her
All the way
Time to come and find you
You can’t hide from me girl
So never mind what I do
I rest my face on your bed
I met my soul mate country
And I left it all for your head
I saw you in the church yard
There was no time to exchange
You were getting married
And it felt so very strange
I guess I didn’t see it coming
Now I guess it’s me who’s bumming
Dreaming of the golden years
You and I were mixing tears
Not today
Not for me but someone
I never could get used to
So now I will refuse to
I rest my face on your bed
I met my soul mate country
And I left it all for your head
I got my best foot forward
And I’ll chase you down
‘Til you’re dead.
„Even You Brutus?“
God is good and fate is great
When it feels so strong
It’s hard to wait
You never know how it might unfold
Hearts to break and bodies to hold
Time will tell but it never gets old
Like I told you I’m in for a long long…
Had to have been one of those things
That took place in outer space
A match made in heaven
Not a scratch on her face
Angels must have smoked some dust
Singing songs ’bout in God we trust
Some things slide but this is a must
Like I told you there’s a time for finding out
People try to tell me
What not to do
You shouldn’t make it with a younger girl
Too many chances
For the foot to drop
I tried to tell them that I found a pearl
Like I told you be careful what you’re asking for
Got a mess of a better half
Hey, sister Judas
Even you never had my back
She was the cutest thing
That I ever did see
Drink in her hand and I don’t mean tea
She was with a dude
But I just didn’t care
I had to find out these moments are rare
And Stevie says ‘All is fair’
Like I told you there is something for everyone
Well I guess I never told you some things
That I really really wanted to say
Did I do everything that I could do
Or did the mice just need to play
Like I told you there is more than meets the eye
Got a mess of a better half
Hey, sister Judas
Even you never had my back
I’m not trying to point fingers at you
And I’m not trying to lay any blame
But when it comes to the punishment
Girl, you know how to bring the pain
Like I told you, I’d do it all again
Got a mess of a better half
Hey, sister Judas
Even you never had my back
Come on
Hey, sister Brutus
There’s a fury to the woman’s wrath
Hey, sister Judas
Even you never had my back
„Meet Me At The Corner“
Please don’t ask me who
Who you think I am
I could live without that
I’m just a modest man
Meet me at the corner
And tell me what to do
‘Cause I’m messed up on you
And had I known
All that I do now
I’m guessing we’re thru now
Receding into the forest
I will lay around in wait
And I’ll wait for you
Please don’t ask me where
Where you think I’ve been
I’ve been a lot of places
But this could be my win
Meet me at the corner
And tell me what to do
‘Cause I’m messed up on you
And had I known
All that I do now
I’m guessing we’re thru now
Receding into the forest
I will lay around in wait
And I’ll wait for you
I feel so bad
I thought you’d wanna know
I feel so bad
I thought you’d wanna know
Something I wanna show
I thought you ought to know
Please don’t say you want
to keep in touch out there
To see you on the corner
Well that I just can’t bare
Meet me at the corner
And tell me what to do
‘Cause I’m messed up on you
And had I known
All that I do now
I’m guessing we’re thru now
Receding into the forest
I will lay around in wait
And I’ll wait for you
Hey and I turn
I turn my head when I thought
I saw a sign
From the gods
A sign from the gods
That you weren’t meant to be mine
And it’s fine
Takin’ it all for a ride
Until the day when it’s gone
Mystified by where
It all went wrong
When it’s gone
I live and I learn
And I lose and I win
But it’s better than ever
Whenever I’m in
I thank you girl
For everywhere that we’ve been
„Dance, Dance, Dance“
