There's a ghost in my house The ghost of your memories The ghost of the love you took from me Well, our love used to be Only shadows from the past I see Time can't seem to erase The vision of your smiling face Though you found someone new I can't get...

They took the girl with the famous eyebrows and plucked them out They made her shadow disappear in the mirror And called it a shadow of doubt Then they wanted us to pay up front For the privilege of watching this go down Then they painted her eyebrows bac...

The ringmaster looked a bit pasty and down Dying as he was to get out of town The lions and the tigers had gnawed at his feet But the lion tamer's whip hurt much more than their teeth The Giovanni Sisters performed in a sweat Someone cut holes in the saf...

If I could bring the sky A little closer to the ground And make the world turn round A little slower If I could prize the lid off of This weight that holds me down And understand her heart And really know her And if our love were cold and dead I'd cu...

I don't understand telepathy, but I am thinking of you I am going to get my feelings across the gulf that divides me and you Cos when the doors get locked and the windows are shuttered The oaths get broken and the curses are muttered And every emotion's c...

You used to swing your big ole breasts around town For every man to get a good look You used to hang your lingerie upside down Out in the sun to cook But when that twister rolled through Kentucky And ripped up our trailer park I saw your big butt flyin'...

Run and beat the shadow Run and beat the shadow Of the quickly setting sun All the tides in the ocean Couldn't pull it back The eclipse had already begun And it turned inside you With a grind of gears Like the blast from a point blank gun All the shif...

That crazy shirt you wear It's gettin'thin near threadbare That ribbon in your hair Made outta lace and it's bound to tear Those ice-blue jeans you got With the hole in the back And the sunflower swatch People are startin'to stare God knows what's goin...

The jug heads hit the city from every country round the globe The ships pulled in the drinks were free the ticker tape came out in rolls I was sitting in a bar watching this on TV To me it looked like a failure but they called it victory BRIDGE 1 Well if...

All the dirt's lying under the carpet He swallowed a drink and then checked her heartbeat Her wedding gown has been burned to ashes Fanned by the flutter of her false lashes One last chance to kiss again She looked so good he looked so sane Not forever...

Hey, can you tell me What everybody plans to do Hey, can you tell me Where's everybody's going to They're out there on the street They must be elite They got shoes I can't afford on their Quick fast feet They have modified irises Behind opaque lens...

Weeping statues Elvis sightings Visitations man struck by lightning Everyday someone gets a sign It rips apart the fabric of their daily lives Is It fear of flying that Keeps us rooted to the ground Everyone is trying to stay trapped and gagged and bound...

Country has drawbacks The mud and the rain The ticks and the bugs And the rugged terrain You gotta deal with people Who are almost insane Folks who operate with Only part of their brain You left me in the wilderness And ran back to town You just co...

When I was King I was not really the man I am now I was like anyone sitting on a throne made out of china When I was king I had already abdicated Already melted my crown down to sell as scrap But they'd run the first run of stamps People had cashed in the...

What you don't know can't hurt you What you can't see can't get in the way You turn out the light, things get clearer I know there'll be a night when you can't find the switch I'm half awake, I can't come to My hands start to shake As you're shaking me...

If I had the slightest clue as to what you are and what's inside you I would know exactly what to do and be worthy of your love If a flower bloomed in the frozen wastes and the moon had a smiling face and the stars had not a hint of grace I'd be worthy of...

I've broken your glass, called someone a dirty name Made a nuisance of myself in front of friends I've dug my own grave, please don't let me lie in it Instead let's bury everything that caused us pain Chorus Speak to me now, speak to me darling You're n...

There's a man in my suitcase, a woman in your clothes Skeletons inside us that dance on hot coals Cannibals are outside following our trail All our information comes from junk mail Don't leave it among us, don't let it loose in the crowd Don't let it rei...
