Here she comes and there she goes
Wearing someone else's clothes
Turning water into wine
Ridicule into sublime Oh Yeah!
Been a daughter all her life
Never ever been a wife
She'll go out in the pouring rain
Just to drive her dog insane Oh Yeah!
Well I love the little girl and I love her like a sister
When the sun goes down she goes off like a twister
She will tear it all down if she doesn't feel trusted
In her under-age world I hope she never gets busted
She will share in everything
She'll confess to all her sins
She's in love with all God's children
She's got a ticket to the world...
She can light your darkest night
Maybe put your world to right
She's a different generation
She's got a ticket to the world...

Lowlife - it's real
It's Friday night and you've got no steel
You can cry all you like
But the truth still hurts and the hurt still bites
And it all comes down to a very low high
No give - no take
You can't rely on a state of grace
You can cry all you like
But the pressure's on when the vein gets tight
And it's all because of these cynical times
Lowlife, Lowlife
No aim -no goal
No guiding light that can take control
You can cry all you like
But you still don't speak to a world outside
And it's all because of the sun in your eyes
Lowlife, Lowlife
You can have it all but not at all fill that hole
You can make this deal go underground
All the saints are praying hard for your soul
You can buy some wheels and run them down
No aim - no goal
No guiding light that can take control
And it all comes down to a very low life
Lowlife, Lowlife
. . .

Well I saw you weeping
One hand on the bible
As I sent your soul to Kingdom Come
Ready to be born again
Well one man sees a wasteland
Another man sees a rainbow
It came to this, the atheists
Got bullets for their brains
Like a goodbye kiss
But then I
I'm putting up a peace-sign
Putting up a peace-sign
Pulling down a peace sign
Well I believe in angels
They move like a secret army
And they help me blow the atheists sky high
I can't sit still for too long
I'm losing all my patience
I got myself a rocket ship
To make me hip
To take me to the moon
When I lose my grip
I said I
I'm putting up a peace-sign
Putting up a peace-sign
Pulling down a peace sign
One day, one day in your life
You will see the light
You will see his face again
One day, one day at a time
Soothes the weary mind
You will feel no pain
Bullets for your brain
(I live a very modest life - I'm happy with it)
Hey now, read my lips
Bullets for the brains of the atheists
. . .

If I said I was Abel
Would you know my name?
I've swung from the trees in the Garden of Eden
And I have shorn off my mane
I've got no horns sticking out
I've got no sting in my tail
I've got no sins to pluck out
Because I do so well
And maybe I can raise the stakes
For the love of Cain
For the love of Cain
We'll dissolve our schemes
And indulge our dreams
For the love of Cain
If you look out your window
With your Sunday smile
If you walk hand in hand through the Valley of Evil
You walk the miracle mile
I just need someone to love
Straight from the cradle to the grave
Maybe it's you I'm thinking of
Because I know your game
And maybe I can raise the stakes
For the love of Cain
For the love of Cain
We'll dissolve our schemes
And indulge our dreams
For the love of Cain

Someone said the world was under ether
Better bet your bottom dollar
Better bet your bottom dollar
That before your eyes we turn to dust
Bodies rearranged
Someone said the world was all but dried out
Read it on the walls the walls around you
Waiting for the paint to dry
Well you might not have to wait very long
Talk about it, think about it hey!
Ether stole your thoughts while you were sleeping
Came in through an open window
Looking for an open mind
And it wiped that smile right off your face
Rock 'n Roll Radiate
Talk about it, think about it hey!
Under Ether

Cut out the crap you know you want to relate
Day by day by day by day by day
Don't want to eat your problems like a piece of cake
Day by day by day by day by day
Out of the frying pan in to the fire
I've got a plan that can make your day
Out of the dungeons and down to the wire
You've got to learn how to make love pay
Don't need no friend to tell you how to f_ _k your head
Day by day by day by day by day
Taking account of nothing leaves you in the red
Day by day by day by day by day
Breaking your bones is a sign ot the times
You've got a soul that has been force-fed
Climbing up walls to the end of the line
These are the tracks that are in your head
Out of the frying pan in to the fire
I've got a plan that can make your day
Out of the dungeons and down to the wire
You've got to learn how to make love pay
Day by day by day by day by day
. . .

Bright light - over the rainbow
Stay bright - dressed up in day-glo
Laid back - where does the day go?
If I stand tall, can you see my halo?
Princess - came with a big bang
Intense - under a wigwam
Witness - the birth of a nation
The pigs came round and they saved your bacon
Hey now watch out kid
She's playing with your mind and there's no denying
Hey now watch out kid
She's blowing you apart like a dandelion
Whiplash - killed the cockroach
White trash - give 'em enough rope
White lies - Tower of Babel
The world spins round and it turns the tables
Timespan - these are the deadlines
Spaceman - I'm in the headlines
Hot tramp - Marilyn Monroe
Does time stand still when you're stuck in a wormhole?
Hey now watch out kid
She's playing with your mind and there's no denying
Hey now watch out kid
She's blowing you apart like a dandelion
Snakebite - some kind of voodoo
Midlife - crisis upon you
Uptight - Babylon rages
Do apes cry rape when you rattle their cages?
Hey now watch out kid
She's playing with your mind and there's no denying
Hey now watch out kid
She's blowing you apart like a dandelion

God played dice and called you home
Just to let you know you're not alone
Hey Andy!
Darkness creeps against your skin
Like the tide rolling in
Hey Andy!
Incomplete if we ever stop
We're gonna climb the walls and reach the top
More alive than we've ever been
Don't get your fingers caught in my machine
Take your time and take your chance
Don't be fooled by circumstance
Wrap things up in dreams of glory
'Cos when I die you'll be waiting for me
All your lives add up to nine
When you made your bed I made mine
Hey Andy!
Seventeen ways to cleanse your soul
We'll let time take its toll
Hey Andy!
Incomplete if we ever stop
We're gonna climb the walls and reach the top
More alive than we've ever been
Don't get your fingers caught in my machine
Take your time and take your chance
Don't be fooled by circumstance
Wrap things up in dreams of glory
'Cos when I die you'll be waiting for me
. . .

Same old song going round and around
It's not where I'm at, it's just where I have found myself
Still the sounds keep the wolves from the door
This is my song
Kill love now - don't be pure, don't be kind
Kill love now - for your own peace of mind
Kill love, kill love
These are the days of futures by design
So does your faith give you powers of immunity?
I don't care if you're right or I'm wrong
This is your life
Kill love now - don't be pure, don't be kind
Kill love now - for your own peace of mind
Kill love, kill love
Kill love, kill love
Buffalo Standing, buffalo standing...

The writing on the wall changes everyday
Moving the lights about
We live by stealth alone
By simple truths - that's our philosophy
Oh what a perfect day - stretch it out forever
With flowers for your grave
A snowdrop for your soul
Down on your knees and pray
May lightning strike your bones
The devil makes his own pornography
Oh what a cross to bear
Freaking out completely
You locked yourself away
Now you're dead inside
You dug yourself a grave
Now you're dead inside
The promises you made
Were all dead inside
The calm before the storm
The bitter taste of mediocrity
Turning you inside out
I'm waiting in the wings
No news of joy - just more hypocrisy
Oh what a strange affair
We belong together
You locked yourself away
Now you're dead inside
You dug yourself a grave
Now you're dead inside
The promises you made
Were all dead inside
You made your bed
Now lie in it - dead inside
You locked yourself away
Now you're dead inside
You dug yourself a grave
Now you're dead inside
The promises you made
Were all dead inside
You made your bed
Now lie in it - dead inside
. . .

Maybe our days are numbered
Maybe I want you back
Maybe these words are empty
Maybe I don't mind if you see someone else
Ah, are we going against the grain again
Ah, are we growing up against the grain
You're building those walls around you
I no longer see the light that shined so bright
You build but you can't afford to
So I ask if I can stay with you tonight
Ah, are we going against the grain again
Ah, are we growing up against the grain
