Everything 06:02
LYRICS We gotta move on through the cyclone We're raising another Arizona storm We found a replacement in a second-hand store Went down to the basement and we lifted some more But love changes everything And love is all you need to bring We gotta move on through the psych zone Twisted tower of silence that carried us home We feed off each other, devour to the bone I take it or leave it and I die alone But love changes everything And love is all you need to bring

Bluebirds 03:48
LYRICS You took away my right to roam Reduced a soul to skin and bone Seize the freedom from me now You take away my sacred cow You shine a light upon my face Accusations out of place What I want is free of charge What I need to be at large And all I hear are the bluebirds sing outside When I go free I plan to do The things that bind me close to you Half the time those things I found I’d lost the other time around So come on home there’s a fireplace A Rosie Lee and a welcome face The wanted poster on the flame Erase the one that takes the blame And all I hear are the bluebirds Sing outside Tonight

LYRICS Everywhere you go, everyone you know Everywhere you turn, it's crash and burn See the shipwreck as you twist your rubber neck Live long and prosper, don't crash and burn But there's something I'd like to know: who's running the show? If the ship is going down, then it's time to run aground The wind's not at your back, so change your tack I'll see you up on deck, but don't go... crash and burn Small faces underground dare not make a sound That silence is not for me My faith is running wild like a tantrum in a child Forgive my trespass, pardon me But there's something I'd like to know... Twenty-four hours ago I watched the wheels fall off the roadshow So jump on the bus that drives me to you and I Don't crash and burn...

Devotion 02:59
LYRICS Am I alone in what I do? Am I alone in front of you? Am I alone in what I say? Or are there others who feel my way? You are perfect but I’m not You’re the difference between go and stop And as we pass along the way Shadows fall, it’s late in the day I feel your pain and laughter seal The cracks I fall in deep devotion

LYRICS All I got is a chain, but it won't let me follow you That's my self-preservation Your magnet attracts, I'm always chasing your moonshine Chasing a storm in a T-shirt And there she goes off her head That sharp little melody-maker You put your life in her hands, oh lord Life is good at the top, but she can go an octave higher You learn to die by her sword She's prohibited She got the look to make a strong man weaker To turn the mighty into the meek She'll break your neck and then twist you inside out Wile E. Coyote, you're in love And there she goes off her head That sharp little melody-maker You put your life in her hands, oh lord Life is good at the top, but she can go an octave higher You learn to die by her sword She's prohibited Settle down, your feet are ahead of me
7.
LYRICS We can be heroes Fill up the space, countdown to zero We will do nothing in particular We will risk not knowing another I wouldn't ever want it to be this way After all we came from the gutter To sun our lives under bus shelters The magic eye reveals the centre Of the universe isn't a wonder I wouldn't ever want it to be this way I don't wanna wait all my life
8.
LYRICS If we turn the other way, we will never see another day Then we'll never know the places we could go The streets that we have walked, from San Francisco to New York On the banks of the River Nile, you turned to me and smiled Can't you see me looking for something new? Can't you see me getting along with you? Can't you see me getting to know the real you? Can't you see me looking for something new? Can't you see me getting packing my bags with you? Can't you see me getting to know the real you? I'm gonna buy a ticket today so we can get away Let's get to Timbuktu before this life shackles you On cable cars we fought, Karakal High to Newport In the shipyards of Gdansk, you joined me for a dance Can't you see me...?

LYRICS Hey man, don't be uptight Wage a war against the rage you are holding Hey man, in a test tube Diving for your DNA 'Cos if they clone us now and you find yourself Genetically erased Microscopically you can honestly see Your cell structure You better scrutinise your DNA And all you gotta do to help me unwind Is keep me aloof All I ask of you is look your best When they're after a subject to study Find a cure for the common cold No runny noses for the working classes So when I meet myself walking down the street Heading the wrong way I should stop and say hello But I already know everything about us You better scrutinise your DNA And all you gotta do to help me unwind Is keep me aloof
