If I say that I love you, will you just leave me alone? I don't know what more I can do, to keep you happy, to call my own. If I said that I hate you, would you just sink like a stone? Would you break out the champagne, to celebrate the breaking of another ba...

Sitting in a rainy tent in an 'I love NY' hat. She said I was beautiful and I'd never heard that. From someone like you. C'mon, this can't be true. You make me feel all new and... Beautiful. She held me on the telephone, but it's just not the same. S...

Beautiful nothing is all I want to hear, beautiful nothing music to my ears. So stop all your bang clanging, shouting and stomping around. Beautiful nothing, it's the sweetest of sounds. Beautiful nothing, well it just never wins. there's no room for no...

I remember when You said the world must be flat Because you'd fallen off the edge There you were just floatin' Holdin' on to my hand So safe and self-assured An' it's not easy Watchin' you walk out on me An' simple dreams from way back when The view was so muc...

Don't talk of dust and roses Or should we powder our noses? Don't live for last year's capers Give me steel, give me steel Give me pulsars unreal He'll build a glass asylum With just a hint of mayhem He'll build a better whirlpool We'll be living for sin Then...

They're hoarding gas in the coffee cans, they're pairing off and joining hands. They're gonna try and make a stand without your love. The lava flow and tidal waves, there's nothing here we couldn't brave. There's nothing you could throw away, we couldn'...

Normally right now I'd be shaking But I'm not even scared Up 'til now I've been faking And up 'til now I didn't care But everything has changed When the bandits left they left us nothing There wasn't even water in the pipes Is that what I get for being...

I had a dream that I stole the maps, I erased all the borders and that was that. I cut the power and sprung the traps, I knocked down the walls and layed ‘em flat. I had a dream that I won the vote, I opened all the cages and drained the moats. I threw...

Farewell to gloomy Sunday, so long to slip n' slide. Say "night" to Mr. Good bar, no more Mr. Shine. Shipwreckd on fuzzy Monday, sunburnt on vodka lime. Hey Mr. Salmonella, hung over one more time. I'mm gonna show, you'll be so surprised. I'm gonna fix it so...

Well the rain came down on Elgin Ave. And the faces on the bus look sad, as the man with the umbrella hails a cab. And the sky is looking mean and grey, and tomato is the soup today. As the homeless lay out plastic on the ground. She takes this chance...

I went to the country to escape the noise and lights And I laid there in the pine cones all night I woke in the morning when all the trees were gone I got this sinking feeling, everything felt wrong Strip malls and dollar stores and diesel in the air I sl...

I'm sitting in a lawn chair by the dirty hotel pool, with a suitcase full of fireworks sparkling like jewels. And there's a girl around my neck who won't leave me alone. Won't someone get me out of here, or won't someone take her home. The lobby's full of...

Not a danny original, but still a fantastic track on the album Clear. Sunday is gloomy my hours are slumberless, Dearest the shadows I live with are numberless. Little white flowers will never awaken you, Now that the black coach of sorrow has taken you....

Time ticks and drips away Days burn, distintegrate Years roll along and fade Don't let them slip away Right here, right now, today These are the good old days Right here, right now, today These are the good old days Love falls and breaks apart Words sting an...

With a smart-ass glare, you sink in your chair, and announce you've decided to cut off your hair. The casting director shuts down the projector, and throws up his arms in the air. Now you watch for your cue that you've once again missed, and deliver the...

I don't know why but I wanted to try just something inside me said 'go let it ride!' I don't know why why you had to straight fly look in my eye and go tell me a lie Tell me you want what you really want now I don't know why but I'm still hanging aro...

You can pull over now, anywhere here's fine. I don't want to jinx or waste me no more time. I'm just gonna go... I don't want no more, there's no more you +1 at the door. I had to get out get me out' a me that town. 'Cause nothing ever adds up. Everybody just...

I built for you a satellite. Strung with the finest thread, a crown for your pretty head. 2 tons of string run out mid flight. Rope burn all blister blue, I lost my grip and I lost you. Chorus: In the belly of a whale, my broken hull and tattered sail. The sa...

Golden locks on suffragettes, the pretty girls smoke cigarettes. Cutting class and sneaking out at night. And the macho boys break billiard balls, but they never catch you when you fall. But I will be there and I will do you right. 'Cause I'm alright, wrapped...

Cannon balls and kettle drums Catapults and pellet guns Kaiser blades and minor chords Voodoo dolls and Ouija boards There's vultures lurking in the wings Sabotaging little things Got greasy see-through friendly grins I guarantee they'll never win 'cause it'...

People stared at the makeup on his face They laughed at his long black hair, his animal grace The boy in the bright blue jeans, jumped up on the stage Lady Stardust sang her songs of darkness and disgrace And he was alright, the band was all together Yes, he...

i recall the day the temperature in town i never felt that way the day you said you would be mine but after years of it's been tugging at our flame is there something i don't know? because you don't look at me the same so i'm leaving on a midnight tr...

I'm an alligator I'm a mama papa coming to you I'm a space invader I'll be a rock 'n' roll bitch for you So keep your mouth shut You're squawking like a pink mockingbird And I'm busting in my brains for the words Keep your 'lectric eye on me, babe Put your ra...

It's been a minute since I thought about it, let alone talk about it seen the darkest clouds and wonder why the Lord allowed it rain pouring down, umbrella? I got caught without it bet that I'd get wet with it so I could walk without it let's not talk abou...

I don't know which way I'm going I can't find it on the map Which way from is the wind blowing? Maybe I should double back But I should try and do my best I could try some more I guess If I'm lost, alone, afraid Promise I can take a little bit of your...

On another world By another star At another place and time In another state of consciousness In another state of mind Everything was almost perfect Everything fell into place The jury reached a different verdict Before the judge dismissed the case In a paral...

Feel a little roughed up Feel a bit frightened Nearly pin it down sometime Red sails action Wake up in the wrong town Boy, I really get around Thunder ocean Thunder ocean Red sails make me, make me sail along Red sails and a mast so tall Red sails Red sails...

Below you borealis above you endless time You spiral through the darkness along a thin blue line Show us all the colours that light up your face We don't want to dream without you or skip to the last page I’m digging weeds in the back yard And Samantha’s in...

Sons of the silent age Stand on platforms, blank looks and notebooks Sit in back rows of city limits Lay in bed coming and going on easy terms Sons of the silent age Pace their rooms like a cell's dimensions Rise for a year or two then make war Search through...

Crawling over rocks on Mars With billion dollar robot cars While millions left on Earth to starve The shiny gladiator cage For pay-per-viewing caveman rage It's the ultimate bullshit parade If you look down on us and from up on high Through an electronic eye...

Well she came into my doorway like a whirlwind Dragging mud and muck across my floor She sat down in the chair where I was sitting Picked up my guitar and made a chord And she said, "your loves like Tennessee Tobacco And it's killing me and all I want it...

They came from miles around, from every little town I'm a stranger in this place, I can't mask this face The arena swells in heat, the gates have come unscrewed As orphans cram the doors to sneak a view Oh, the poster said it all, one man would stand brig...

Everywhere he goes Everything he does Everything proves to him That he don't exist for them Cos they don't understand what The invisible man understands Everyday he tries Every night he dies Looking for someone like him Someone who don't walk by him...

All the way across a crowded room, Can you feel it? I know you do. You arrive like a mortorcade, And your better half rolls in like a hand granade. When our eyes collide, I'm lost in the tide. And the worst part is he don't even know, He's the luckiest man in...

I love the smell of gasoline, and I love an older car. I never drove it fast, and I never drove it far. I just sit here in the front seat, and stare at the stars. I got it from this biker, he said "you're gonna like her" It'll stop on a dime, and got more chr...

Well I don't know what day it is, and I'm afraid to say I'm not sure where I am. And these hotel rooms and greasy spoons have over stayed their welcome once again. And the folks down in the hotel lounge, sit far apart and order rounds all night. And I'd...

No stars in the sky The night seems so dark around you You won't say a word And wonder why no one's found you Waiting for love Praying for love again Love's a heavy weight Give it to me, don't hesitate Love's a heavy thing Heavy for one heart to bring...

She's Says. . . You know the monkey bar rules As she kisses away his playground bruise You don't have to skip a bar each time To make it to the other side She picked him up out of the sand And tied the shoelace that read superman (chorus) We all fall down It'...

I was born on the wrong day, but I was born in the right year. You were born in the wrong town, and we were born to tears. Was I supposed to happen? Were you supposed to be here? Were the stars aligned? Was it all so clear? So here's to you and your heart's g...

I used to drive a racecar, but i won every single time, I once met the great Elvis Prestley, way back in his prime. A pilot had a heart attack, yeah so I had to land the plane, I once saved a little kid from drowndin' [sic] I invented cellophane. I used...

I was there at the station when the colours combined I’d been trying to change 'em all with my mind I’m out of fire with the cupboards bare My love left and I got nothing to share So I put my last dollar on a railroad track But no train came so I took it...

There's a woman counting quarters at the table There's a gentleman taking tickets at the door And I'm slipping out tonight Cuz the moon is yellow bright And I'm afraid that I don't love her anymore I heard a song come on a speaker It said something 'bout...

He stepped into the light And high above the mike He sang the wheels right off us With hair all dried up white He was the strangest sight He tore the roof right off us We fell into a daze I couldn't look away He broke the strings right off it And he o...

They pulled in just behind the fridge He lays her down, he frowns Gee, my life's a funny thing Am I still too young? He kissed her then and there She took his ring, took his babies It took him minutes, it took her nowhere Heaven knows, she'd have taken...
