Lindisfarne : On Tap
歌词
1. RUN FOR HOME
I've travelled the land with a guitar in my hand
And an eye ever open for some fun
I've made some mistakes, had my share of the breaks
Seen the boys on the make and on the bum.
Run for home, run as fast as I can
Oh, running man, running for home
Run for home, run as fast as I can
Oh, running man, running for home.
I've seen all the frowns on the faces of the clowns
And the downs that they take just to be free
I've seen all the girls in their pretty frocks and curls
But they don't mean a lot to me.
Run for home, run as fast as I can
Oh, running man, running for home.
I've been to the places in town where the faces
Hang 'round just to stare at each other
I've looned with them, scream at the moon
Behaved like a buffoon but I soon discovered.
Run for home, run as fast as I can
Oh, running man, running for home
Run for home, run as fast as I can
Oh, running man, running for home.
Run for home, run as fast as I can
Oh, running man, running for home.
I've travelled the land, made mistakes out of hand
Seen the faces in the places misunderstand
Yes, I've travelled the world, seen the pretty boys and girls
Heard the noise that destroys and commands.
Run for home, run as fast as I can
Oh, running man, running for home
Run for home, run as fast as I can
Oh, running man, running for home.
2. LADY ELEANOR
Banshee playing magician sitting lotus on the floor
Belly dancing beauty with a power driven saw
Had my share of nightmares, didn't think there could be much more
Then in walked Rodrick Usher with the Lady Eleanor
She tied my eyes with ribbon of a silken ghostly thread
I gazed with trouble vision on an old four poster bed
Where Eleanor had risen to kiss the neck below my head
And bid me come along with her to the land of the dancing dead
But it's all right, Lady Eleanor
All right, Lady Eleanor
I'm all right where I am
She gazed with loving beauty like a mother to a son
Like living, dying, seeing, being all rolled into one
Then all at once I heard some music playing in my bones
The same old song I'd heard for years, reminding me of home
But it's all right, Lady Eleanor
All right, Lady Eleanor
I'm all right where I am
Then creeping on towards me, licking lips with tongues of fire
A host of golden demons screaming lust and base desire
And when it seemed for certain that the screams could get no higher
I heard a voice above the rest screaming 'You're a liar'
But it's all right, Lady Eleanor
All right, Lady Eleanor
I'm all right here in your arms
3. MEET ME ON THE CORNER
Hey Mr Dreamseller, where have you been?
Tell me have you dreams I can see?
I came along, just to bring you this song
Can you spare one dream for me?
You won't have met me, and you'll soon forget me
So don't mind me tugging at your sleeve.
I'm asking you if I can fix a rendezvous.
For your dreams are all I believe
Meet me on the corner when the lights are coming on
And I'll be there, I promise I'll be there
Down the empty streets we'll disappear until the dawn
If you have dreams enough to share
Lay down your bundles of rags and reminders
And spread your wares on the ground
Well I've got time, if you deal in rhyme
I'm just hanging around
Meet me on the corner when the lights are coming on
And I'll be there, I promise I'll be there
Down the empty streets we'll disappear until the dawn
If you have dreams enough to share
Hey Mr Dreamseller, where have you been?
Tell me have you dreams I can see?
I came along, just to bring you this song
Can you spare one dream for me?
4. WE CAN MAKE IT
(No lyrics available)
5. ALL FALL DOWN
Councilors, magistrates, men of renown,
Who needs to live in a dirty old town.
Yes, go on, tear it down.
Who need the trees and the flowers to grow,
We can have a motorway with motorway dough,
I know I know I know, they've got to go.
Tear them down, mess them round,
Make a mockery of all of the ground,
And if you ever have a sleepless night,
Just count out your money, it'll be all right.
Politicians, planners go, look what you done,
Your madness is making a machine of ev'ryone,
But one day the machine might turn on.
We'll tear you down, mess you round,
And bury you deep under the ground,
And we'll dance on your graves till the flowers return
And the trees tell us secrets that took ages to learn,
We'll tear you down, mess you round,
Bury you deep under the ground,
And we'll dance on your graves till the flowers return
And the trees tell us secrets that took ages to learn,
We'll tear you down.
6. WARM FEELING
Sittin' by the fire glow,
Waitin' for my girl to show,
Feelin' the harmony grow.
I met her just the other day,
She has helped me find my way.
Feelin' the harmony grow.
I wish I had found her a long time ago.
Now, I don't need to wonder any more.
I get a warm feelin' when you're near me.
I get a warm feelin' when you're holdin' me.
I feel the love rushes hangin' round me,
Even when you're gone.
Been together so much more,
Than i've ever known before.
Feelin' the harmony grow.
I need her more than ever now,
It all seems so right, somehow.
Feelin' the harmony grow.
I never met anyone like her before,
Now all the rest don't matter anymore.
I get a warm feelin' when you're near me.
I get a warm feelin' when you're holdin me.
I feel the love rushes hangin' round me,
Even when you're gone.
I get a warmin' feelin' at the mention of her name.
She's brought the sun in my life,
As she drove out all of the rain.
I get a warm feelin' when you're near me.
I get a warm feelin' when you're holdin' me.
I feel the love rushes hangin' round me,
Even when you're gone.
I get a warm feelin' when you're near me.
I get a warm feelin' when you're holdin' me.
I feel the love rushes hangin' round me,
Even when you're gone.
Even when you're gone.
Honey, when you're gone.
Feelin' the harmony grow.
Feelin' the harmony grow.
Feelin' the harmony grow.
Feelin' the harmony grow.
7. WINTER SONG
When winter's shadowy fingers
First pursue you down the street
And your boots no longer lie
About the cold around your feet
Do you spare a thought for summer whose passage is complete?
Whose memories lie in ruins
And whose ruins lie in heat?
When winter...
Comes howling in
When the wind is singing strangely
Blowing music through your head
And your rain splattered windows
Make you decide to stay in bed
Do you spare a thought for the homeless tramp who wishes he was dead?
Or do you pull the bed-clothes higher
Dream of summertime instead?
When winter...
Comes howling in
The creeping cold has fingers
That caress without permission
And mystic crystal snowdrops
Only aggravate the condition
Do you spare one thought for the gypsy with no secure position?
Who's turned and spurned by village and town
At the magistrate's decision?
When winter...
Comes howling in
When the turkey's in the oven
And the Christmas presents are bought
And Santa's in his module
He's an American astronaut
Do you spare one thought for Jesus, who had nothing but his thoughts?
Who got busted just for talking
And befriending the wrong sorts?
When winter...
Comes howling in
When winter...
Comes...
Howling...
In
8. ROAD TO KINGDOM COME
I have no one to call my friend
The road I travel has no end
And so I turn my face up to the sun
And walk on down the road to kingdom come
And as I walk this lonely road
Nobody helps me bear my load
Can somebody tell me what it is I've done
Condemned to walk the road to kingdom come
And if you pass me on the side
Why don't you stop and let me ride
You just had a better deal my son
Walking down the road to kingdom come
And if you pass this way someday
And you should find I've gone my way
There'll always be some poor boy on the bum
Walking down the road to kingdom come
Walking down the road to kingdom come
9. FOG ON THE TYNE
Sittin' in a sleazy snack-bar suckin'
Sickly sausage rolls
Slippin' down slowly
Slippin' down sideways
Think I'll sign off the dole
[Chorus]
'Cause the fog on the Tyne is all mine, all mine
The fog on the Tyne is all mine
The fog on the Tyne is all mine, all mine
The fog on the Tyne is all mine
Could a copper catch a crooked coffin maker
Could a copper comprehend
That a crooked coffin maker is just an undertaker who
Undertakes to be a friend
[Chorus]
Tell the truth tomorrow
Today will take it's time to
Tell you what tonight will bring,
Presently we'll have a pint or two together
Everybody do their thing
We can swing together
We can have a wee wee
We can have a wet on the wall
If someone slips a whisper
That his simple sister slapped them down
And they slavered on their smalls
[Chorus](x2)
10. MIRACLES
Whosoever besaw her could never forget the sight
Mangled up in mystery, madonna of the clear white light
The moon slipped in silence and settled upon her face
I saw then the sadness of the whole human race.
But I could not believe what I saw with my eyes
Oh no, not me, I'm an ordinary guy
And I don't believe in miracles, miracles don't exist
Oh no, I don't believe, don't believe in this.
She turned her head in torment, trying to explain
Her position as a woman was one and the same
As me with my moments but my moments were not to blame
For future lies and alibis and crazy old fashioned games.
But could not believe what I saw with my eyes
Oh no, not me, I'm an ordinary guy
And I don't believe in miracles,e miracles don't exist
Oh no, I don't believe, don't believe in this.
Then she smiled, she smiled again, she smiled again for free
Reminded me of William Blake and the smile of eternity
She was Bardot, she was Buddah, she was Marilyn Monroe
And by the light in her eyes like the midnight skies, I swear I began to know.
That I could believe what I saw with my eyes
Oh yes, it's me and I'm an extraordinary guy
And I do believe in miracles, that's all there is exists
Oh yes, I do believe, do believe in this.
11. NO TIME TO LOSE
I want to go travelling in your car, leave all the city behind
Up on the motorway Scotland's not far, see what we can find.
No time, no time to lose
No time, no time to lose
Had more than my share of people giving advice, on the way that my life should be
But look at the country man it's looking so nice, it's feeling so good to be free.
No time, no time to lose
No time, no time to lose
Man how I love all those wild rolling hills, I can feel them inside of my loves,
The colours all changing I swear it's amazing, I feel like I'm flying back home.
No time, no time to lose
No time, no time to lose
No time, no time to lose
No time, no time to lose
12. RUNNING MAN
I’ve travelled the land
With a guitar in my hand
And an eye ever open for some fun
I’ve made some mistakes
Had my share of the breaks
Seen the boys on the make and on the bum
[Chorus]
Run for home run as fast as I can
Oh-oh running man running for home
Run for home run as fast as I can
Oh-oh running man running for home
I’ve seen all the frowns
On the faces of the clowns
And the downs that they take just to be free
And I’ve seen all the girls
In their pretty frocks and curls
But it don’t mean a lot to me
[Chorus]
And I’ve been to the places in town
Where the faces hang round
Just to stare at each other
I’ve looned with them screamed at the moon
Behaved like a buffoon but I soon discovered
[Chorus]...
13. ELVIS LIVES ON THE MOON
Space ships landing in the corn fields, couldn't come a day too soon
Shake your castanets and tambourines, Elvis lives on the moon.
Nostradamus saw the future, Uri Geller bent a spoon
On the other side it's so secure, Elvis lives on the moon
[Chorus]
And if all this is true, not just a mere circumstance
I might make it with you, I might just have a chance.
There's a curse waiting for you, down in Tutenkhamen's tomb
Don't let it scare or overaws you, Elvis lives on the moon
[Chorus]
My daddy told me keep an open mind, listen carefully what they say
And if Elvis is any friend of mine, you'll be mine some day
Elvis lives on the moon, yes he does
Elvis lives on the moon
Elvis lives on the moon
14. JUKE BOX GYPSY
Juke box gypsy jangle
Shake your silver bangle
Dancin' all night ‘cause it feels alright
Hold your dress up high.
Sweet baby, send me
Be-bop baby, bend me
You look so good, make me wish you would
Hold your dress up high.
I'm so sure that you got the cure
For anybody feelin' insecure
One injection and it feels alright
One more poke and you can do it all night.
Juke box gypsy, shake me
Juke box gypsy, break me
If I get out of hand, just pass me a gland
And hold your dress up high.
I'm so sure that you got the cure
For anybody feelin' insecure
One injection and it feels alright
One more poke and you can do it all night.
Juke box gypsy jangle
Shove your silver bangle
Dancin' all night ‘cause it feels alright
Hold your dress up high
Hold your dress up high
Hold your dress up high
Hold your dress up high.
15. DANCE YOUR LIFE AWAY
Early morning into school, play the game by the golden rule
Do it like that, do it like this
Do like master, do it like miss.
Put your head down study hard, don't make no trouble in the old school yard
Buy some soap, don't have hope
You'll hang yourself with too much rope.
Do you believe it ? - I don't believe it.
[Chorus]
Dance, dance, dance your life away, dance your life away
Dance your life away, dance your life away.
Well early in the morning open eyes, looking for work surprise, surprise
Do it like this yeah, do it like that
Get on your bike there's no rabbit in the hat.
Sorry son there's no work here, better come back in a week or maybe next year,
Don't ask questions, don't ask why,
You'll leave yourself high and dry.
Do you believe it ? - I don't believe it.
[Chorus]
Out with the boys having fun, everybody trying to be number one
Do it like this, do it like that
End up in the same old trap.
Listen to what the preacher say, you got jam tomorrow but not today
He know the score, he told you before
We're all passing through heaven's door.
Do you believe it ? - We don't believe it.
[Chorus]
Do you believe it ? - I don't believe it.
Do you believe it ? - We don't believe it.
Do you believe it ? - Dance your life away
Do you believe it ? - Dance your life away
Do you believe it ? - Dance your life away
Do you believe it ? - Dance your life away
16. EVENING
In the evening, that's when I miss her
When the moon smiles down like a sister
And the time crawls by like a wounded fly
Oh, I don't know why, I just miss her.
In the morning, that's when I need her
To cook my breakfast, she got to feed me
But the sun shines on like she's never been gone
I don't know why, I just need her.
Easy, you know it ain't easy
You know it's so hard to carry on
Through the day when you know
Evening's on her way.
Easy, you know it ain't easy
You know it's so hard to carry on
Through the day when you know
Evening's on her way.
In the evening, that's when I miss her
When the moon smiles down like a sister
And the time crawls by like a wounded fly
I don't know why, I miss her.
17. ROLL ON THAT DAY
One day I know the way before us will be clear
All I divide just now will fade and disappear.
One day I know is sure is morning follows night
We walk together from the darkness to the night.
Brothers and sisters joining hands along the way
Change got to come and I say, roll on that day.
[Chorus]
Roll on that day I say now, roll on that day,
Change got to come and I say, roll on that day.
For all the cold and lonely, hungry and unborn
See that their darkest hour is just before the dawn.
And I see a bright blue morning, lighten up the way
Change got to come and I say, roll on that day.
[Chorus]
I see a bright blue morning, lighten up the way
Change got to come and I say, roll on that day.
[Chorus](x4)
18. CLEAR WHITE LIGHT PART 2
Do you believe
The clear white light
Is going to guide us on?
Running along the ground singing a song in the morning light
Follow flowery fields as far as out of sight
Turning your head to the clouds and the skies and the trees
'Cause you never know what you might see.
Do you believe
The clear white light
Is going to guide us on
The way?
Seeing the sun as it wants to be seen by ev'ryone
Melting the sky throw a hole in your eye where the magic comes
Turning your heads to the skies with the clouds in your eyes
'Cause you never know what you might find
Do you believe
The clear white light
Is going to guide us on
The way?
Now is the time to be loving and kind to your fellow men
Seeing the sympathy starting out all over again
Now is the time to give love just one more go
'Cause you never know what you might know
And I believe
The clear white light
Is going to guide us on
Yes I believe
The clear white light
Is going to guide us on
I've travelled the land with a guitar in my hand
And an eye ever open for some fun
I've made some mistakes, had my share of the breaks
Seen the boys on the make and on the bum.
Run for home, run as fast as I can
Oh, running man, running for home
Run for home, run as fast as I can
Oh, running man, running for home.
I've seen all the frowns on the faces of the clowns
And the downs that they take just to be free
I've seen all the girls in their pretty frocks and curls
But they don't mean a lot to me.
Run for home, run as fast as I can
Oh, running man, running for home.
I've been to the places in town where the faces
Hang 'round just to stare at each other
I've looned with them, scream at the moon
Behaved like a buffoon but I soon discovered.
Run for home, run as fast as I can
Oh, running man, running for home
Run for home, run as fast as I can
Oh, running man, running for home.
Run for home, run as fast as I can
Oh, running man, running for home.
I've travelled the land, made mistakes out of hand
Seen the faces in the places misunderstand
Yes, I've travelled the world, seen the pretty boys and girls
Heard the noise that destroys and commands.
Run for home, run as fast as I can
Oh, running man, running for home
Run for home, run as fast as I can
Oh, running man, running for home.

4. WE CAN MAKE IT
(No lyrics available)
5. ALL FALL DOWN
Councilors, magistrates, men of renown,
Who needs to live in a dirty old town.
Yes, go on, tear it down.
Who need the trees and the flowers to grow,
We can have a motorway with motorway dough,
I know I know I know, they've got to go.
Tear them down, mess them round,
Make a mockery of all of the ground,
And if you ever have a sleepless night,
Just count out your money, it'll be all right.

Your madness is making a machine of ev'ryone,
But one day the machine might turn on.
We'll tear you down, mess you round,
And bury you deep under the ground,
And we'll dance on your graves till the flowers return
And the trees tell us secrets that took ages to learn,
We'll tear you down, mess you round,
Bury you deep under the ground,
And we'll dance on your graves till the flowers return
And the trees tell us secrets that took ages to learn,
We'll tear you down.

Oh-oh running man running for home
Run for home run as fast as I can
Oh-oh running man running for home
I’ve seen all the frowns
On the faces of the clowns
And the downs that they take just to be free
And I’ve seen all the girls
In their pretty frocks and curls
But it don’t mean a lot to me
[Chorus]
And I’ve been to the places in town
Where the faces hang round
Just to stare at each other
I’ve looned with them screamed at the moon
Behaved like a buffoon but I soon discovered
[Chorus]...
13. ELVIS LIVES ON THE MOON
Space ships landing in the corn fields, couldn't come a day too soon
Shake your castanets and tambourines, Elvis lives on the moon.
Nostradamus saw the future, Uri Geller bent a spoon
On the other side it's so secure, Elvis lives on the moon
[Chorus]
And if all this is true, not just a mere circumstance
I might make it with you, I might just have a chance.
There's a curse waiting for you, down in Tutenkhamen's tomb
Don't let it scare or overaws you, Elvis lives on the moon
[Chorus]
My daddy told me keep an open mind, listen carefully what they say
And if Elvis is any friend of mine, you'll be mine some day
Elvis lives on the moon, yes he does
Elvis lives on the moon
Elvis lives on the moon
14. JUKE BOX GYPSY
Juke box gypsy jangle
Shake your silver bangle
Dancin' all night ‘cause it feels alright
Hold your dress up high.
Sweet baby, send me
Be-bop baby, bend me
You look so good, make me wish you would
Hold your dress up high.
I'm so sure that you got the cure
For anybody feelin' insecure
One injection and it feels alright
One more poke and you can do it all night.
Juke box gypsy, shake me
Juke box gypsy, break me
If I get out of hand, just pass me a gland
And hold your dress up high.
I'm so sure that you got the cure
For anybody feelin' insecure
One injection and it feels alright
One more poke and you can do it all night.
Juke box gypsy jangle
Shove your silver bangle
Dancin' all night ‘cause it feels alright
Hold your dress up high
Hold your dress up high
Hold your dress up high
Hold your dress up high.
15. DANCE YOUR LIFE AWAY
Early morning into school, play the game by the golden rule
Do it like that, do it like this
Do like master, do it like miss.
Put your head down study hard, don't make no trouble in the old school yard
Buy some soap, don't have hope
You'll hang yourself with too much rope.
Do you believe it ? - I don't believe it.
[Chorus]
Dance, dance, dance your life away, dance your life away
Dance your life away, dance your life away.
Well early in the morning open eyes, looking for work surprise, surprise
Do it like this yeah, do it like that
Get on your bike there's no rabbit in the hat.
Sorry son there's no work here, better come back in a week or maybe next year,
Don't ask questions, don't ask why,
You'll leave yourself high and dry.
Do you believe it ? - I don't believe it.
[Chorus]
Out with the boys having fun, everybody trying to be number one
Do it like this, do it like that
End up in the same old trap.
Listen to what the preacher say, you got jam tomorrow but not today
He know the score, he told you before
We're all passing through heaven's door.
Do you believe it ? - We don't believe it.
[Chorus]
Do you believe it ? - I don't believe it.
Do you believe it ? - We don't believe it.
Do you believe it ? - Dance your life away
Do you believe it ? - Dance your life away
Do you believe it ? - Dance your life away
Do you believe it ? - Dance your life away
16. EVENING
In the evening, that's when I miss her
When the moon smiles down like a sister
And the time crawls by like a wounded fly
Oh, I don't know why, I just miss her.
In the morning, that's when I need her
To cook my breakfast, she got to feed me
But the sun shines on like she's never been gone
I don't know why, I just need her.
Easy, you know it ain't easy
You know it's so hard to carry on
Through the day when you know
Evening's on her way.
Easy, you know it ain't easy
You know it's so hard to carry on
Through the day when you know
Evening's on her way.
In the evening, that's when I miss her
When the moon smiles down like a sister
And the time crawls by like a wounded fly
I don't know why, I miss her.
17. ROLL ON THAT DAY
One day I know the way before us will be clear
All I divide just now will fade and disappear.
One day I know is sure is morning follows night
We walk together from the darkness to the night.
Brothers and sisters joining hands along the way
Change got to come and I say, roll on that day.
[Chorus]
Roll on that day I say now, roll on that day,
Change got to come and I say, roll on that day.
For all the cold and lonely, hungry and unborn
See that their darkest hour is just before the dawn.
And I see a bright blue morning, lighten up the way
Change got to come and I say, roll on that day.
[Chorus]
I see a bright blue morning, lighten up the way
Change got to come and I say, roll on that day.
[Chorus](x4)
18. CLEAR WHITE LIGHT PART 2
Do you believe
The clear white light
Is going to guide us on?
Running along the ground singing a song in the morning light
Follow flowery fields as far as out of sight
Turning your head to the clouds and the skies and the trees
'Cause you never know what you might see.
Do you believe
The clear white light
Is going to guide us on
The way?
Seeing the sun as it wants to be seen by ev'ryone
Melting the sky throw a hole in your eye where the magic comes
Turning your heads to the skies with the clouds in your eyes
'Cause you never know what you might find
Do you believe
The clear white light
Is going to guide us on
The way?
Now is the time to be loving and kind to your fellow men
Seeing the sympathy starting out all over again
Now is the time to give love just one more go
'Cause you never know what you might know
And I believe
The clear white light
Is going to guide us on
Yes I believe
The clear white light
Is going to guide us on
