1. VOTE 4 DICK TAID

Come on faithful sons
We'll blow away the ballless ones
Set their long grey hair on fire
Put their fingers on a wire
Your daddy that is me
I take responsibility
A simple fee is all it takes to wash away your agony

I offer you work so I can eat and drive expensive vehicles
As you see I'm the only one here
I gave you a life, a bite to eat, I'm your only miracle
You got to love not fear

Some day by accident I will become the president
Cause you will waste your votes on
Me and I will reign it permanent
My tongue on salt through years have
Made my verbal boundaries disappear
I spoke my way through fear
Applause, I'm taught to lie sincere

I offer you work so I can eat

All of the money I put into you made days
Sunny and forced you to love me
Daddy will never be crying the blues
Dumb fuck rebels are promised to lose...trust me
I have never believed in anything but myself
Now you must be wondering
How in the world I could make it so
Big with a couple of hands and a gun
My own daddy taught me to hate myself
For all surroundings close you shell you're put here to work
And raise your sister suffer no moan my son

I offer you work so I can eat


2. STAND

To stand, and walk again
To forgive, and make amends
We gain and share the trust
We so sincerely wished would never add, until

We stood and walked again
We forgave, and made our love revive
That would die for turning back
That back it turned on you, at night

We will never fall again
Never hide so small and when
You remember where we've been
We'll never fall again

To lose the broken heart
And then find the unknown art
Respect, not expecting more than truth
My truth is I love you, I do

And we'll never fall again
Never hide so small and when
You remember where we've been
We'll never fall again

As I was falling away
I watched my body go down
I watched the entire deployment sequence
And I saw the silver cord coming right out of the back of my neck

Yes we'll never fall again
Never hide so small and when
You remember where we've been
We'll never fall


3. PRAWNS BLUES

I am sleeping in the park
I'm thirsty like a low tide shark
The only time I get to see my wife is by her new man in the mall
Wait a minute think I'm gonna fall
I have shot the president
I'm queen of Britain for a cent
For fifty bucks I'll do a trick
Your wallet might not be as thick as you recall it to have been before

Good-bye my friends
You won't ever see me wheeling again
This chair is gone
And so is prawn

Easy come, said grinning prawn
But suddenly it all was gone
Made a mil but paid the bill
An oilfield in the middle east
Butt scuds were having fire-feast, same noon

People turn around and they look at me
Don't they see that I've just lost both of my legs
And my company burned down to the lawn I did piss on the day I was born
Now I am a prawn

Fascinated eyes in disguise smiling at me
I know they're telling lies 'cause their eyes don't like to see
That crippled little rebel in the chair must be gone before the dawn
But I'm a prawn

Didn't you see the show with the miracle man and his band
Lots of good songs and a lot of good digging fans
That I was sledging down the strings with their hearts in my hand

Breaking up the band wasn't easy for me to do
Because I had made plans for my company hoochiekoo
Makingamoneydasupadacalidafragidalisticaexpialiyawn
Became a prawn

Good-bye my friends
You ain't never gonna see me again
My life depends on wine and women, song and dance

Good-bye my friends
You won't ever see me wheeling again
This chair is gone
And so is prawn


4. BRING BACK SUPERMAN

The eggs you threw with eyes of dew and fall
Your talk of loom your tits in bloom and all
Sensational, imperial!

The compromises you would never make-me please a man again
The door would slam and I be damned
To know that I had lost my head
And you the most sensational and rational
Of all the muses who have tried to change the hardly changeable

Don't you know there is no other one
Take a bite of every shit to come
And I sure will bite it, too
Swallow all the good in you

I couldn't keep my fingers off the phone
I ruined your sleep and happy time alone
I had to tell my personal hell
My traffic light refused to shine and daddy fell back in the wine

Don't you know there is no other one
Take a bite of every shit to come
And I sure will bite it, too
Swallow all the good in you

Bring back the superman in me
Clark Kent is such a nervous wreck
Bring back the superman in me

Bring back the superman in me
Clark Kent is such a nervous wreck
Bring back the superman in me


5. TRAVELOGUE

Pouring up the wine from yesterday
It tastes the same today
Awakes the lynx in me
Songs have often drawn me by their tales
An urge to set the sails
And go beyond the whales

Gathering the best in everything
And all the places where I used to go
Wondering still not wandering
A cowards heart refuses me to know

Swallowing a journey from a glass
Dividing emptiness and wine becomes a gas
All I have is what I need to give
In songs I breathe and live
The source will never leave

Gathering the best in everything

In this travelogue I went nowhere
But my brain was always in the air out somewhere
Since the day I heard the dring I never left my chair
I never left my chair I never left my chair

All I ever wanted was to swim and drown my fear of swimming and the water
And on the other side to find the peace of soul and mind and you and I
A tickle in my nose of distant hills, beneath the crows upon the blue, I want to go
I want to know, what bothers me, what eases you


6. COULD WE KILL FRED

Fred did go long but he did not go all the way
Siezed every day though his surfboard sank in the bay
Loaded his mind with a sauce spiced in all he found hip
Micro chip dip
Searched for the hype stuff and feared to be a hypocrite
Tuned E to C in a band where he did not fit
Fred was the founder of every invention before

Fred throws out his brain, jumps on a train to be on time
Digs cool magazines, flips through the pages of his mind
Day is gone but he keeps the 'blackflies' on
Fred is in the house tries to be seen among the crowd
Fred's a friend of the band
Still they don't know the man that acts so loud
Please notice him
He's proud of his style

You want him dead I ask could you kill Fred
Go for his neck and you'll get your own head

Fred dyed his hair, told his friends he would shoot himself
Friends he had none so it must have been someone else
No one objected his threat so poor Fred took it back

Fred turns on T.V. tries to collect the frequency
This reality must be reflecting Freddy's key
Day is green and he'll keep the arnets on
Next week Fred is saying: "oh, I must break this cozy shell"
He steps into a plane and tries to break it in Nepal
Please notice him
He' s proud of his style

You want him dead I ask could you kill Fred
Go for his neck and you'll get your own head

Fred is like proud to be a part of this x-rated generation
Leaving no specific sensations except for once in a while
When some hair-dyed fellow locks himself in a shed
Just to blow off his own head
Sometimes Fred makes a sandwich with his girlfriend Lizzy
And some foreign drugged up 'ho' he calls Janis or something
Sometimes Fred is checking out the 'strawberries' of this particular season
Last week Fred was 'in' to directing movies
This week its political meetings
And friday he'll be a host in what he thinks is his own 'Fred Sullivan' show

You want him dead


7. DRING

Once I was taught to fly
But someone kept me in his eye
My wings were burnt and for a while I cried
But now I'm in the air again
And headed for a better when
To land upon a closer friend again

I drew my own world in every sky
In few and cruel words you passed me by

It took me years to concentrate on anything or any fate
But the one I found in hate for you
You tangoed down 'till you were sore
A bottled leaked and many more
I picked you from a frozen floor again

I wish I could have done whatever I felt
Just to pull a loaded gun from my belt and blow it in your mouth
Blow it in your mouth

Let me go, I'll make it better on my own
Let me go, I may just break a few bones
Let me go, I ask you to let me go
And just let me flow

You die in every dream I have, but I still wake up
It may be you that made me dring
I dring, I dring

Let me go, I'll make it better on my own
Let me go, I may just break a few bones
Let me go, I ask you to let me go
And just let it flow


8. STAR IN MOVIE

Sit with me I want to know your name
Picture you inside my golden frame
I do deep intellectual films
I admit containing certain thrills
You may think that I'm just an ordinary boy
But, behind my fly I am swollen...

Happy that you made it here today
Tempting looks keep leading me astray, girl
Now you see that I was never ordinary, girl
Because behind this lens was a genius

Hey sugar will you star in my movie
Fit the 'tart part' well
Hey sugar will you show your pussy

You are fast asleep, I scan your inner eyelids
Crawl inside your mouth to check your throat depths
I investigate your juicy 'genitals'
When you're coming back I'll be on your back


9. GLOOM

Something sweet in your nose
Tells you where to go
Seems as if you're never on your own
So you sneak just to see what it is
It's the heat, or maybe its just a kiss.

I may not be concerned
But i care, if she is there
To die for you
Would she die for you
Be there in your gloom
When you're calling her name
Untill the end
'Till the end of the noon
Is she crying your gloom
Or does she sink with the day.

Good? Is it good?
Are you understood?
Do you wear the shoes you wore before?
Do you sleep with your thumb in your mouth? - anymore?
Did you protect your core?

And i may not be concerned
But i care, if she is there
Oh, to die for you
Will she die for you?
Be there in you're gloom
When you're calling her name
Untill the end
'Till the end of the noon
Is she crying your gloom
Or does she sink with the day.

Oh to die for you
Will she die for you
Be there in you're gloom
When you're calling her name
Untill the end
'Till the end of the noon
Is she crying your gloom
Or does she sink with the day.


10. LOLLYPORK STOMP

The moon was hanging cool
And full above the waving swimming pool
As we were feeding mouths with heat and drool
Cause we were having Christmas feast
A merry one with pork and grease
And every guest was eating meat like beasts

Cause Santa gave us lollypork and everyone was gay
The smell of frying pig was in the air
I really think that eating piggy pork is quite O.K
As long as the meat is well done
I think it’s fair

Fanatic vegetarians would call us rude barbarians
But before they did we forked them on the grill
The taste was quite 'mermalian'
Reminded me of aliens
But salt could give oooooh the last thrill

And santa gave us lollypork

My youngest son once asked his dad
How can it be that I'm so fat
You taught me lollypork was for my health
The skinny kids with baseball bats
still kick my ass and tell me that
My family was never one of wealth

And Santa gave us lollypork


12. VICTORIA

I know that you love me
You hunt me down and bug me
I don't think you're lovely at all

You're sixty, I'm twenty
You've none and I've got plenty
Oh, lord tell me where I can hide

Take your time make up your mind
And let me know just where you go
Cause I won't be there, I won't be there
Take your time make up your mind
And let me know just where you go
Cause I just won't be there!

I know that you want me
Cause everywhere you haunt me
I might leave this country for good
I try to escape you
You're begging me to take you
I'd rather be 'hued' by the crowd

Take your time make up your mind

Victoria, you're everywhere
I try not to breathe cause you're in the air
Victoria paranoia
Victoria, you're everywhere
I try not to breathe cause you're in the air
Victoria euphoria


13. BAG OF FLASH AND THIME

I know how it feels when you're here
Puts the heat in the air when you're near
But I will never know what’s going on below
Skin, bones and hair

I'd fall from a tree for a smile
Hit myself and still hurt for a smile
But I will never find the bag of flash and thyme
Shine me the stairs

I dig through the soil and the shields
And the softness of gold turns to steel
I drink too long and wet my tongue
Cause I have done you wrong, dead wrong

I talk to the fish on the floor
See my new found friend never gets bored
My favorite place of all is the closet in the hall
Here none calls

See, I dig through the soil and the shields
