There is nothing you can do about it but sit back and watch.

Better Watch Your Back
Oh, living the life of a madmans wife, has got to be unreal
cause shes got to hold on to ground control
While jack does what he feels
Well he stays away, and then he comes home
And he never knows where hes been
Jack blasts downtown then hes over the line,
And then hes a kid again
Jack said its hard living in a dream, and its hard
Always giving in to me
*his wife saw jack in a crowd of boys and he was talking against
The man
She saw the guys getting dangerous eyes, and she knew it
Was never or then
So she ran on back an d said to jack jack, jack I wouldnt do that,
If youre gonna continue to give your opinion, youd better
Watch your back
Oh, jack said youd better watch your back
Said youd better watch your back
Said youd better watch your back
*said youd better watch your back, oh, jack
Had knock down dream, then he saw the man.
And thought hed save the day
Jack gave roar, made for the door, hed go to church and pray
Say jackie, religion and you, aint mixed well in the past
Remember when you smashed your fist on the eucharist,
Threw up in high mass?
Its hard always giving in to me
* repeat*
Oh, jack youd better watch your back, oh, jack, oh jack,
Oh, jack........

It's Over
did you think about your mother?
did you think about your dad?
did you think about no other?
did you think you'd be so sad
to think you'd be so cold
watch your back and I'll watch mine
did you think about your brother?
did you think about your friend?
did you think about your inspiration?
did you think about the end?
to think you'd be so cold
watch your back and I'll watch mine

Back To The Island
Now the day is gone
And I sit alone and think of you girl
What can I do, without you in my life
Wonderin' if you love me or
Just makin' a fool of me.
Well I hope you understand
I just had to go back to the island
And watch the sun go down
Hear the sea roll in
I'll be thinkin' of you
And how it might've been
Hear the nightbird cry
Watch the sunset die
Well, I hope you understand
I just had to go back to the island
For all the sunny skies,
It's rainin' in my heart
I know down in my soul
I'm really gonna miss you
But it can't end this way
With all the games we've played.
Well, I hope you understand
I just had to go back to the island
Watch the sun go down
Hear the sea roll in
I'll be thinkin' of you
And how it might've been
Hear the nightbird cry
Watch the sunset die
Well I hope you understand
I just had to go back to the island
Sit and watch the sun go down
Listen to the sea roll in
Yes, I'll be thinkin' of you
And how it might've been
Listen to the nightbird cry
Sit and watch the sunset die
Well I hope you understand
I just had to go back to the island
I hope you understand
I just had to go back to the island

La Booga Rooga
Writers: andy fairweather low
Dont look back, thatll get you nowhere
A wall to wall suit and space circus hair
One step forward, one step back
Thats what happens and thats a fact
To tell the truth, you raise up your hand
Dont write me no invitations in the sand
And when you talk, say what you mean
Just keep it dry, lord, and keep it clean
Watch out for la booga rooga
Some you win and some you loosa
Watch out for la booga rooga
Some you win and some you loosa
I dont know why and I cant explain
Why Im lost on a street with no name
But thats alright, thats okay
I just feel like Im slipping away
Satellite mama, if you are near
Hey, the partys over, now just get me outa here
Silent night, watch over me
See that nobody writes me into the dream
Watch out for la booga rooga
Some you win and some you loosa
Watch out for la booga rooga
Some you win and some you loosa
Im on fire, inside my head
Someone put out the light
And they sent the world to bed
Its not too late, but I just cant stop
I think this time Im going over the top
Hey, mr. dogface, please let me in
Say, dont you think that Im worth rememberin
Watch your step, watch what you do
cause you need me much more than I need you
Watch out for la booga rooga
Some you win and some you loosa
Watch out for la booga rooga
Some you win and some you loosa

Guenevere
We had a game
I called her guenevere
And she would always call me galahad
I was her king
She was my queen
My guenevere
The days were warm
The nights were sweet
I didnt think
That something troubling me
My guenevere
You left one night
Farewell guenevere
Where are you
Guenevere come back to camelot
Galahad is waiting
Guenevere come back to camelot
Watch the morning breaking
The city streets
No longer are
The english countryside
They used to be
My armor rusts
My sword is waiting
For guenevere
Where are you
Guenevere come back to camelot
Galahad is waiting
Guenevere come back to camelot
Watch the morning breaking
All the songs
I used to sing
I long to sing
For you
Said in my letter
Write me soon
Im waiting here
My lady
Guenevere come back to camelot
Galahad is waiting
Guenevere come back to camelot
Watch the morning breaking
Guenevere come back to camelot
Galahad is waiting
Guenevere come back to camelot
Watch the morning breaking...

I Want To Go Back To The Veldt Again (Rondel Prime)
I want to go back to the veldt again
to watch nature to see little things,
to hear how pretty small red weavers sing,
to on my skin feel the summer’s cool rain
to live with harmony without some pain,
to get of God a clear understanding.
I want to go back to the veldt again
to watch nature to see little things,
and away from the city to remain,
to see flowers rise in the months of spring
opening and life slowly awakening,
I want to go back to the veldt again
to watch nature to see little things.

Lift You Up
(john critchley)
Your mind is all cluttered now
But you drag yourself along somehow
Through dark dreams of that visit you in the night
Obscure fragments with broad daylight
Watch me now
What did you say about what Ive done
What do you want to know, why or how come?
Havent you learned yet that it never ends
Back and forth and around, here it comes again
Chorus
Watch me now
And Ill lift you up if I can
Watch me now
Youre eyes are wild and your nerves exposed
But you havent lost anything, not by a mile, not yet
Can yo uremember the good times
They can be back soon, better than before

Shadows
There are two of me
One does the right thing,
One cannot see.
Standing back to back,
Who is the strong one
In the last act?
Every path I take,
Roads I go down,
Choices I make,
Take me right between
Patches of light and
Darkness in me.
Oh, we have to keep
A watch on our shadows--
Every move
They secretly make.
We try to be
So close to heaven,
But then our shadows,
They run away.
They pull away.
Oh....
And the shadows prove,
Falling behind,
Tracing each move, oh,
When I do some wrong,
There is no hiding;
Shadows are long.
So we have to keep
A watch on our shadows--
Every move (every move)
They secret make, yeah, yeah,
We try to be
So close to heaven, (mmmm....)
But then our shadows,
Pull us away.
They pull away....
We have to keep
A watch on our shadows--
Every move (ooooh....)
They secretly make, yeah,
We try to be
So close to heaven,
But then our shadows,
They pull us away.
Oh, we have to keep
A watch on our shadows--
Every move (oooh....) they secretly make, yeah,
We try to be
So close to heaven,
But then our shadows
Pull us away.
Pull us away.
Pull us away.
(ha, hu ha, oh no, cha cha.
Oh no, gotta keep our watch.
Keepin it under my shadow.
Oh no, gotta keep our watch.
On my shadow.
Oh no, gotta keep our watch.
Keepin it under my shadow.
Oh no, gotta keep our watch.
Keepin it under my shadow.
Oh no, gotta keep our watch.
Keepin it under my shadow.
Oh no, gotta keep our watch.
On my shadow.
Oh no, gotta keep our watch.
Keepin it under my shadow.
Oh no, gotta keep our watch.
Keepin it under my shadow.
Oh no, gotta keep our watch.
Keepin it under my shadow.
Oh no, gotta keep our watch.
On my shadow.
Oh no, gotta keep our watch.
Keepin it under my shadow.
Oh no, gotta keep our watch.
Keepin it under my shadow.
Oh no, gotta keep our watch.
Keepin it under my shadow.
Oh no, gotta keep our watch.
On my shadow.
Oh no, gotta keep our watch.
Keepin it under my shadow.
Oh no, gotta keep our watch.
Keepin it under my shadow.)

The Light Of Love
Standing at the terminal I can almost hear the music
Coming from the cold and chilly l.a. night
And when we get to the gate, baby
All of the things that were said
Will they turn you round and bring you back
Will they bring you back
Will you come back home cause you know Im waiting
The light of love is always on
You know my love is getting stronger and stronger
The light of love is always on
Keeping the night watch
Baby, are you lonely, dont talk to strangers
Im trying to tell myself you wont be gone for long
And when we get to the part baby, where all of the tears start to come
Will you turn around, get on the plane
Will it bring you back, will you come back home
cause you know Im waiting
The light of love is always on
You know my love is getting stronger and stronger
The light of love is always on
Keeping the night watch
The light of love is always on
You know my love is getting stronger and stronger
The light of love is always on
Keeping the night watch
The light of love is always on
You know my love is getting stronger and stronger
The light of love is always on
Keeping the night watch
Keeping the night watch
Keeping the night watch

Watchers
Those stars among the midnight sky
Are watching all, for all can see
The watchers without blinking eye.
They watch for you, they watch for me.
But once a hundred years there is
A man who shames them, so they sleep.
He watches back and blows a kiss
And then for them the watch he'll keep.
He sits upon a mountain tall
And will not blink for then there's none
To watch the humans rise and fall.
An age is through, an age is done.
A solitary life he leads,
His only friends stay up above.
They hear him not when 'Talk! ' he pleads
For then he shames the ones he loves.

Watch Out
Watch your eyes
it may see reactions
Watch your reaction
it may enthuse emotions
Watch your emotion
it may compose thoughts
Watch your thought
it may become words
Watch your word
it may become a habit
Watch your habit
it may become character
Watch your character
it may become your identity
Finally, watch your identity
it may become your fate

There Is No Room
Watch my back?
Trust 'you'...
To watch 'my' back?
You've always been there...
For 'me'?
Do I have FOOL printed on my forehead?
'No!
Why would that be on your forehead?
There is no room.
It looks as if SUCKER has been branded on it!
Who did that? '

Watching That Man
Shakey threw a party that lasted all night
Everybody drank a lot of something nice
There was an old fashioned band of married men
Looking up to me for encouragement - it was so-so
The ladies looked bad but the music was sad
No one took their eyes off lorraine
She shimmered and she strolled like a chicago moll
Her feathers looked better and better - it was so-so
Yeah! it was time to unfreeze
When the reverend alabaster danced on his knees
Slam! so it wasnt a game
Cracking all the mirrors in shame
Watch that man! oh honey, watch that man
Well he talks like a jerk but he could eat you with a fork and spoon
Watch that man! oh honey, watch that man
Well he walks like a jerk
But hes only taking care of the room
Must be in tune
A benny goodman fan painted holes in his hands
So shakey hung him up to dry
The pundits were joking the manholes were smoking
And every bottle battled with the reason why
The girl on the phone wouldnt leave me alone
A throw back from someones lp
A lemon in a bag played the tiger rag
And the bodies on the screen stopped bleeding
Yeah! I was shaking like a leaf
For I couldnt understand the conversation
Yeah! I ran to the street, looking for information
Watch that man! oh honey, watch that man
He talks like a jerk but he could eat you with a fork and spoon
Watch that man! oh honey, watch that man
He walks like a jerk
But hes only taking care of the room
Must be in tune
Watch that man
Watch that man
Oh ah oh
Watch that man
Oh oh oh
Watch that man
Oooh ooh
Watch that man
Oh (watch that man)
(watch that man)
(watch that man)
(watch that man)
(watch that man) oh oh
(watch that man)
(watch that man)

Every Morning's Mourning.
Watch you sleep
Dream and roll over
avoid the monsters
and the light
Watch you sleep
Watch you sleep
when the noise
of fifteen
floors above you
crashes in
and wraps you deeper
in your sheets
Watch you sleep
Watch you sleep
through every squeak
and smash and ping
as I serenade you
with my awake
and my breakfast
Watch you sleep
Watch you sleep
with a half-turned
smile on your face
an exposed and naked leg
your hair escaping you
like spilling starlight
Watch you sleep
Watch you sleep
when I kiss
the tiniest sample
of skin on your cheek
and know you wake
when I'm gone
and am gone
until again you sleep
When you wake
Watch you wake
Watch you sleep

My Stand
Don't tell me i cant, i wont.
Oh no no you don't.
I am my own man.
Watch as i take stand.
Their no black or white
when it comes to whats wrong.
Theirs only grey.
What else can i say.
Don't tell me i cant, i wont.
Oh no no you don't.
I am my own man.
Watch as i take a stand.
Am over reaching just maybe.
But what gives you the right to preach to me.
Just step off, back up.
Enough is enough.
Don't tell me i cant, i wont.
Oh no no you don't.
I am my own man.
Watch as i take a stand.
The blind shall never follow the weak.
Even if i don't know everything,
don't mistake this ignorance for stupidity.
I'm just not that dumb.
Your fun is at the expense of others.
Another, another, oh brother.
Don't tell me i cant, i wont.
Oh no no you don't.
I am my own man.
Watch as i take a stand.
Against all odds.
Against someone who thinks their god.
I say come on, bring it in any flavor.
it still wont save you.
The strings are gone forever gone.
Don't tell me i cant, i wont.
Oh no no you don't.
I am my own man.
Watch as i take my stand.

The Medication Is Wearing Off
See this watch she gave me?
Well it still ticks away
The days Im climbing back for me
The medications wearing off
Gonna hurt not a little, a lot
Keep on tickin youre not lickin me
Step on a crack break your mothers heart
Red light green light black
Suicide e-mail do not delete
Plug it back in the jack
Start to be what they want you to be
And you see yourself as they see you
Sunsrise at the corner of
Sunset and alvarado
I think what the hell do I do now
Watch the day disintegrate
So I can stay up late and wait
See this watch she gave me?
Well it still ticks away

Backtalk
I work all day to make a livin
No one needs
Your kind of attitude
Your sharp tongue
It cuts me like a razor
Lip service gets you nowhere
No, no, no
Back talk I dont need it
B-b-b-back talk I dont need it
No, no, no back talk
Dont want to hear it
Dont give me no back talk
Watch that temper
You watch what youre sayin
Dont talk to me
With that tone of voice
Your act is pushin me
To the limit
Cant stand it, cant stand it
Cant take it any more
Dont wont back talk
I dont need it
Dont give me back talk
I dont want to hear it
Dont give me back talk
Dont need it, no
I believe you enjoy
This aggravation
Lately thats all I get from you
You were born to drive me crazy
Cant take it, cant take it any more from you
No, no more
Back talk, I dont need it
Back talk, I dont need it
Back talk, dont want to hear it
Dont give me no back talk
Sassy back talk
Dont give me no sassy back talk
No I dont want to hear it
No dont really need it
No dont give me no
Give me no dont you give me no

Please Come Back
I used to sit by the bank of the river flown by the side of my countryside;
And I saw one day, so many kinds of stream (with many different shapes) going towards their destination.
But they never came back.
They will never come back!
I used to watch on the sky and see the postures of clouds -
Suddenly these were vanished.
The exact portraits never came back.
I know, they will not ….
You see, if human revelation once falls under the wreck,
It's very hard to restore its attributions.
The benefaction for a community never comes back.
Yes, it doesn't come back.
But you, special then a commoner holding my worldly senses, must come back.
I always miss you…
You have to come back.
Please come back.
