1. MARIA

She moves like she don't care
Smooth as silk, cool as air
Ooh it makes you wanna cry
She doesn't know your name
And your heart beats like a subway train
Ooh it makes you wanna die.

Ooh, don't you wanna take her?
Ooh, wanna make her all your own?

Maria, you've gotta see her
Go insane and out of your mind
Regina, Ave Maria
A million and one candle lights.

I've seen this thing before
In my best friend and the boy next door
Fool for love and fool on fire.

Won't come in from the rain
She's oceans running down the drain
Blue as ice and desire.

Don't you wanna make her?
Ooh, don't you wanna take her home?

Maria, you've gotta see her
Go insane and out of your mind
Regina, Ave Maria
A million and one candle lights.

Ooh, don't you wanna break her?
Ooh, don't you wanna take her home?

She walks like she don't care
Walkin' on imported air
Ooh, it makes you wanna die.

Maria, you've gotta see her
Go insane and out of your mind
Regina, Ave Maria
A million and one candle lights.

Maria, you've gotta see her
Go insane and out of your mind
Regina, Ave Maria
A million and one candle lights.


2. SCREAMING SKIN

Following my lust for wander everywhere I've ever been,
I can't escape the sound of it - the sound of my screaming skin.

My skin cries.
My blood sighs.
I still owe some dread on this hide.

Following my trust in wonder I watch the circus begin.
I can't ignore the scent of it - the scent of my screaming skin.

My skin cries.
My blood sighs.
I still owe some dread on this hide.

La la la la la la la.
La.
La la la la la la la.

I'm a multicellular individual.
You're way out of proportion!
We've got the hemodynamic connection.
Don't call me germ!

Allowing for my strength to muster.
My losses begin to win.
Tropical winds start to bluster, raising the fur on my skin.

My skin cries.
My spirits fly.
But I still owe some dread on this hide.

Oooh.

Yeah!
I'm a multicellular individual.
You're way out of proportion!
We've got the hemodynamic connection.
And don't call me germ!

Swallowing my pride no longer, I take the forbidden sun.
If I have been sculpted by hunger, I'm not the only one.

My skin cries.
My blood sighs.
I still owe some dread on this hide of mine.

La la la la la la la.
La la la la.
La la la la la la la la.

I'm a multicellular individual.
You're way out of proportion, ah ha!
We've got the hemodynamic connection.
Don't call me germ!

My skin cries.
My spirit flies.
But I still owe some dread on this hide.

My skin cries.
My blood sighs.
And I still owe some dread on this hide of mine.

My spirit flies.
My blood sighs.
And I still owe some dread on this hide of mine.

My skin cries.
My spirit flies.
But I still owe some dread on this hide.


3. NOTHING IS REAL BUT THE GIRL

Some days are all Mondays
Sort of time on ice
It seems like jet planes on snowed in runways under clear blue skies
Who needs it?

Nothing is real but the girl
Nothing is real but her.

Money goes to money in a figure eight around me
Money
Who's gonna love me if I liquidate and drown me?

Nothing is real but the girl
Nothing else feels solid.

We believe in love.
We believe in little things like Heaven up above and seven
It's a lucky number!
We believe that something lives inside every thing there is.
Don't think about it much.
I mean it
I believe it
I believe it.

Wind down.
Put your mind down like your missing school
You'll teach her to find out while your dying in your living room how much you need her.

Nothing is real but the girl
Only her eyes are solid
Nothing is real but her
Nothing is real but the girl.

5. OUT IN THE STREETS

He don't hang around with the gang no more.
He don't do the wild things that he did before.

(Ooh)
He used to act bad.
Used to, but he quit it.
It makes me so sad, 'cause I know that he did it for me (and I can see) and I can see (still in the street) his heart, his heart is out in the street.

He don't comb his hair like he did before.
He don't wear those dirty old black boots no more.

(Ooh)
But he's not the same.
There's something 'bout his kisses... that tells me he's Changed
I know there's something missing inside.
(Tell me more)
Something died
(Still in the street)
His heart, his heart is out in the streets

He grew up on the sidewalk, streetlights shining above
He grew up with no one to love.

He grew up on the sidewalk, he grew up running free
He grew up and then he met me.

He don't hang around with the gang no more
Gee, he doesn't smile like he did before.

(Ooh)
I wish I didn't care
I wish I'd never met him.

They're waiting out there, so I got to set him free.
(Send him back)
He's gotta be.
(out in the street)
His heart, his heart is out in the street.

He don't hang around with the gang no more
(He's out in the street)
He don't hang around with the gang no more
He don't hang around with the gang no more
(He's out in the street)
He don't hang around with the gang no more
He don't hang around with the gang no more
(He's out in the street)
He don't hang around with the gang no more
He don't hang around with the gang no more
(He's out in the street)
He don't hang around with the gang no more.

7. HEART OF GLASS

Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out had a heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
Once I had a love and it was divine
Soon found out I was losing my mind
It seemed like the real thing but I was so blind
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind.

In between
What I find is pleasing and I'm feeling fine
Love is so confusing there's no peace of mind
If I fear I'm losing you it's just no good
You teasing like you do.

Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out had a heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind.

Once I had a love and it was divine
Soon found out I was losing my mind
It seemed like the real thing but I was so blind
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind.

Lost inside
Adorable illusion and I cannot hide
I'm the one you're using, please don't push me aside
We coulda made it cruising, yeah.

Yeah, riding high on love's true bluish light.

Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out to be a pain in the ass
Seemed like the real thing only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind.


8. SUNDAY GIRL

I know a girl from a lonely street
Cold as ice cream but still as sweet
Dry your eyes Sunday girl
Hey, I saw your guy with a different girl
Looks like he's in another world
Run and hide Sunday girl.

Hurry up, hurry up and wait
I say awake all week and still I wait
I got the blues, please come see
What your loving means to me.

She can't catch up with the working crowd
The weekend mood and she's feeling proud
Live in dreams Sunday girl.

Baby, I would like to go out tonight
If I go with you my folks'll get uptight
Stay at home Sunday girl.

Hey, I saw your guy with a different girl
Looks like he's in another world
Run and hide Sunday girl.

When I saw you again in the summertime
If your love was as sweet as mine
I could be Sunday's girl.

Hurry up, hurry up and wait
I say awake all week and still I wait
I got the blues, please come see
What your loving means to me
I got the blues.


9. THE TIDE IS HIGH

The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
I'm not the kind of girl who gives up just like that
Oh, no.

It's not the things you do that tease and wound me bad
But it's the way you do the things you do to me

I'm not the kind of girl who gives up just like that
Oh, no.

The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
Number one, number one.

Shake and shag
I wanna wag for you baby.

'Cuz my little mutt's got that hairy butt
He's gonna wag it for me baby.

Hey come over here Mr. Licks
I like when you pick up sticks
When you throw me a fit
And no matter what you tell the tale of a pup 'cuz you're My kind of mutt.

I disagree

12. HANGING ON THE TELEPHONE

I'm in the phone booth, it's the one across the hall
If you don't answer, I'll just ring it off the wall
I know he's there, but I just had to call
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
I heard your mother now she's going out the door
Did she go to work or just go to the store
All those things she said, I told you to ignore
Oh why can't we talk again
Oh why can't we talk again
Oh why can't we talk again
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone.

It's good to hear your voice, you know it's been so long
If I don't get your call then everything goes wrong
I want to tell you something you've known all along
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone.

I had to interrupt and stop this conversation
Your voice across the line gives me a strange sensation
I'd like to talk when I can show you my affection
Oh I can't control myself
Oh I can't control myself
Oh I can't control myself
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone.

Hang up and run to me
Whoah, hang up and run to me
Whoah, hang up and run to me
Whoah, hang up and run to me
Whoah oh oh oh run to me.

14. WELL,DID YOU EVAH !

I have heard among this clan
You are called the forgotten man
Know what they're saying, well, did you evah?
What a swell party this is.

And have you heard the story of
A boy, a girl, unrequited love
Sounds like pure soap opera
I may cry
Tune in tomorrow
What a swell party this is.

What frills, what frocks
What broads
What furs, what rocks
They're bootiful
Why I've never seen such gaiety
Neither have I
It's all just too, too risque really.

This French champagne
Domestic
So good for the brain
That's what I was going to say
You know you're a brilliant fellow?
Why thank you
Pick up jack, but please don't eat that glass my friend.

Have you heard about dear Blanche?
Got run down by an avalanche
No
Oh, don't worry, she's a game girl you know
Got up and finished 4th
The kids got guts
Having a nice time? Grab a line.

Have you heard that Mimsie Starr
Oh, what now
She got pinched in the Astor bar
Sloshed again, eh?
She was stoned
Well, did you evah?
Never
What a swell party this is.

Hey, check out that act
That's a lovely dress
You think I can talk her out of it?

It's great
Aah, it's great
So grand
So grand
It's wonderland.

We sing
Oh, we sing
So rare
So rare
Like old Camembert
Like baba au rhum
Don't dig that kind of crooning chum.

Have you heard? It's in the stars
Next July we collide with Mars
Well, did you evah?
What a swell party, a swell party
A swelligant, elegant party this is.

I drink to your health
Naw, let's drink to your wealth
You're my bon ami
Hey, that's French
A liberty fraternity.

Have you heard? It's in the stars
Next July we collide with Mars
Well, did you evah?
What a swell party, swell party
Swelligant, elegant party this is.

16. WAR CHILD

I need city lights
Defence and weaponry
No way of knowing
My life expectancy
I learn resistance
Like I learn to see
A living witness
A lonely refugee I'm a war child
I'm a war baby
And that's the difference
Between you and me
I'm a war child.

My occupation
Is being occupied
I stop at the corner
To be identified.

Across the border
They pretend victory
I'm playing in the rubble
And dream a destiny.

I'm a war child
I'm a war baby
And that's the difference
Between you and me
I'm a war child.

You weren't discovered by Khmer Rouge
We hear of "the troubles" on the nightly news
PLO lovers courting after the curfew
Your father and brother have the West Bank blues.


17. RIP HER TO SHREDS

Hey! psst psst! Here she comes now.
Oh, you know her, would you look at that hair
Yeah, you know her, check out those shoes
She looks like she stepped out of the middle of somebody's Blues.

She looks like the Sunday comics
She thinks she's Brenda Starr
Her nose job is real atomic
All she needs is an old knife scar.

Yeah, she's so dull, come on rip her to shreds
She's so dull, come on rip her to shreds.

Oh, you know her, "Miss Groupie Supreme"
Yeah, you know her, "Vera Vogue" on parade
Red eye shadow! Green mascara!
Yuck! She's too much.

She looks like she don't know better
A case of partial extreme
Dressed in a Robert Hall sweater
Acting like a soap opera queen.

Yeah, she's so dull, come on rip her to shreds
She's so dull, come on rip her to shreds.

She got the nerve to tell me she's not on it
But her expression is too serene
Yeah, she looks like she washes with Comet
Always looking to create a scene.

Yeah, she's so dull, come on rip her to shreds
She's so dull, come on rip her to shreds
She's so dull. Rip her to shreds.

Oh, you know her, "Miss Groupie Supreme"
Yeah, you know her, "Vera Vogue" on parade
Yeah, you know her, with the fish-eating grin
She's so dull.

Yeah, she got the nerve to tell me!
Huh, she's so dull
Yeah, there she goes now
She making out with King Kong
She take her boat to Hong Kong
Well, bye bye sugar
And not a minute too soon

2. FADE AWAY (AND RADIATE)

Oooo baby, I hear how you spend night time
Wrapped like candy in a blue, blue neon glow
Fade away and radiate
Oooo baby, watchful lines
Vibrate soft in brainwave time
Silver pictures move so slow
Golden tubes faintly glow.

Electric faces seem to merge
Hidden voices mock your words
Fade away and radiate.

The beams become my dream
My dream is on the screen.

Dusty frames that still arrive
Die in 1955.

Fade away and radiate.

The beams become my dream
My dream is on the screen.

Fade away and radiate.
