1. THE BIG SKY

They look down
At the ground,
Missing.
But I never go in now.

I’m looking at the big sky.
I’m looking at the big sky now.
I’m looking at the big sky.
You never really understood me.
You never really tried.

That cloud, that cloud--
Looks like ireland.
C’mon and blow it a kiss now,
But quick,

’cause it’s changing in the big sky,
It’s changing in the big sky now.
We’re looking at the big sky.
You never understood me.
You never really tried.

This cloud, this cloud--
Says "noah,
C’mon and build me an ark."
And if you’re coming, jump,
’cause

We’re leaving with the big sky.
We’re leaving with the big sky.
And we pause for the jets--
Hup! hup!--in the big sky!

You want my reply?
What was the question?
I was looking at the big sky.

Tell ’em, sisters!

"rolling over like a great big cloud,
Rolling over with the big sky!
Rolling over like a great big cloud,
Rolling over with the big sky!"


2. NOT THIS TIME

Oh, with a mind that renders everything sensitive,
What chance do I have here?
Put an end, put an end,
Put an end to every dream.
When you're near, I fear you,
And I forget myself.

But not this time.
Not this time.
Not this time, baby,
Not this time.

I don't know why I give in, but I do every time.
And here I am wondering why I did it again.
Too-ree-ay, too-ree-o, too-ree-ay, too-ree-o, too-ree-ay's what I say
To keep me going,
To keep the shit away.

I don't know what it is,
But every time you're near, I fear you,
And I forget myself.

No, not this time, baby.
Not this time, you won't.
Not this time, darling.
C'mon, we all sing:

Too-ree-ay, too-ree-o, too-ree-ay, too-ree-o,
Too-ree-ay, too-ree-o, too-ree-ay, too-ree-o,
Too-ree-ay, too-ree-o, too-ree-ay, too-ree-o,

Not this time.
