Walking along the Camino Royale
The Mississippi sighs
Soft in the night when the wind starts to rise
And I'm lifted high around the corner
So I spin
Fast as a ride at the fair
Like a snake that flies through the air
When I cry enough I'm fired from a gun
And thrown through the doors
Only the fool learns to get through
Ahead I see candles floating in pails
Each placed upon a chair
Into a tent where they turn round the bend
Through a kitchen leading to a staircase
Now I stop
Seems that I've been led astray
There are no new answers today
This road is blocked
Only the fool learns to get through

My lucky number's on a prison door
And it's found on everything I wear
And I've got to get away from 151
Cell 151
Sharing it with me is a man who shot his wife
And I'm afraid to fall asleep at night
And I've got to get away from 151
Cell 151
And it makes me sad
Thinking about the past feeling bad
I know I've been blind
All I needs a space to unwind
But I can't stay in 151
Cell 151
Hear me when I cry
I can't see the sky
Too much time
I've left the world behind
And I've got to get away from 151
Cell 151
And it makes me sad
Thinkin' 'bout the past feeling bad
I know I've been blind
All I needs a space to unwind
But I can't stay in 151
151, I've gotta get away from 151
151, I've gotta get away from 151
151, 151

Time improves you or dilutes you
But there is no standing still
If you don't scream nobody hears you
If you won't fight then no one will
Well I'm walking
Walking through walls
Walking through walls
You can breath under water
You will find it hard at first
Getting used to ritual slaughter
Feeling like your head might burst
Well I'm walking
Walking through walls
Walking through walls
Bare your teeth and bang your drum
Get up on your legs and start to run
No, no, no you can't sit down
No one's friend and no one's clown
You can not deal with a madman
Eighty reasons sinking fast
And your roof becomes steel girtered
Flashing through well shaded glass
Well I'm walking
Walking through walls
Walking through walls
Bare your teeth and bang your drum
Get up on your legs and start to run
No, no, no you can't sit down
No one's friend and no one's clown
Walking, walking through walls
Walking, walking through walls
Walking, walking through walls
Walking, walking through walls
Walking, walking through walls
Walking, walking through walls
Walking, walking through walls

A broken heart's not easy to mend
Why must you break it again
When you lose your prized possession
Look around you're exception
Give it away
Your mind is all made up
When you lose your first love
You'll never feel that way
No one can take her place
When you lose your self expression
It's just time to change direction
Give it away
When you start you're lovers and friends
But when you part you're strangers again
Now the time just passes slowly
Time to live from yourself only
Give it away
You watch the years go by and she's no longer there
Then one day you will find
That you no longer care
When you lose your prized possesion
Look around and no exception
Give it away
When you lose your self expression
It's just time to change direction
There's no need for more protection
Give it away
. . .

Far in the distance and way up high
Circling slowly beneath the sky
Lone in the air and the world is turning
Looking the eagle straight in the eye
What goes up must come down
And you circle all around
On your own
You're seeing things in a dream
You learn to swing over trees
In the clouds
It's a breeze
Blowing 'round
Leaving the ground and you're feeling weightless
To the sea sparkling in the sun
There's a beach and it's time for landing
But it seems that you've just begun
What goes up must come down
And you circle all around
On your own
You're seeing things in a dream
You learn to swing over trees
In the clouds
It's a breeze
Blowing 'round
Up above, up above, up above
Like a bird, like a bird
On your own
You're seeing things in a dream
You learn to swing over trees
In the clouds
It's a breeze
Blowing 'round

India Rubber Man
How far can you bend
Way across the sea far and wide
Bending the rules now and then
India Rubber Man
How long can you extend
The more I stretch the more you ask
Illusion has no end
India Rubber Man
How high can you ascend
Up and up and disappear
I'll show you with my magic rope
India Rubber Man
How far will you go
I've really have no plans
I work in a medicine show
. . .
