In The Doorway
I stand in the doorway for the turning gates,
Trying to be helpful, trying to be sad,
Coming forward as tapping is essential.
Just wander and stand in the room,
Don’t decide to be a star and say two
Of the days are like worlds of disaster.
It is crucial for good eye lubrication,
The lachrymal glands in action.
During the night a young man shall weep
For the forehead is strong with age.
Life has lines and solutions for all,
Pouring out are the words of disaster.

One Night Stand
Let me tell you.....
Jennys getting her stuff in my room
Puts on her skirt and shes looking good
Six am and shes leaving soon
Says what a crazy night I had
A real good time
But her kiss tells me its goodbye
Just like nothing happened last night
But if I had one chance
Id do it all over again
One night stand I dont think shes coming back for more
She was only looking for a one night stand
I dont think shes coming back for more
No no
Now Im left up in my lonely room
She left her underwear and her perfume
I never thought that it could be this good
And I still feel a little on my fingertips
Im trying hard not to feel rejected
Maybe the phone lines disconnected
But if I had one chance
Id do it all over again
I know it
One night stand I dont think shes coming back for more
She was only looking for a one night stand I dont think shes coming back for more
She was only looking
One night stand but Id do it all again for sure
Oh yeah
Baby like a blind man I rushed in
Now do I have the right to ask you,
Will you be coming back again?
One night stand I dont think shes coming back
One night stand I dont think shes coming back
One night stand I dont think shes coming back
One night stand I dont think shes coming back for more
She was only looking
One night stand I dont think shes coming back for more
She was only looking for a one night stand I dont think shes coming back for more
She was only looking for a one night stand I dont think shes coming back for more
She was only looking
One night stand but Id do it all again for sure
I guess it was a one night stand
One night stand
I guess it was a one night stand
One night stand
I guess it was a one night stand
One night stand
I guess it was a one night stand
One night stand
I know it, yeah

Don't Stand So Close
don't stand so close
by the police
young teacher, the subject, of school girl fantasy
she wants him, so badly, knows what she wants to be
inside him, there's no room, this girl's an open page
bookmark in, she's so close now, this girl is half his age
don't stand, don't stand so
don't stand so close to me
don't stand, don't stand so
don't stand so close to me
her friends are, so jealous, you know how bad girls get
sometimes it's not so easy, to be the teacher's pet
temptation, frustration, so bad it makes him cry
wet bus stop, she's waiting, his car is warm and dry
don't stand, don't stand so
don't stand so close to me
don't stand, don't stand so
don't stand so close to me
loose talk in, the classroom, to hurt they try and try
strong words in, the staffroom, the accusations fly
it's no use, he sees her, he starts to shake and cough
just like the, old man in, that book by nabakov
don't stand, don't stand so
don't stand so close to me

see my by located as that Image,
In my own shoulders,
stand alone,
see me that by all meaning's,
stand alone,
see the new world,
coming all the way in my loneliness,
see me by as that image,

I be suffering,
seeing that I laced these words,
stand alone and see the clear picture,

Beautiful Disaster
He drowns in his dreams
An exquisite extreme I know
He's as damned as he seems
And more Heaven than a heart could hold
And if I tried to save him
My whole world could cave in
It just ain't right
But it just ain't right
Oh and I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful
Or just a beautiful disaster
He's magic and myth
As strong as what I believe
A tragedy with
More damage than a soul should see
But do I try to change him
So hard not to blame him
Hold me tight
Baby hold me tight
Oh and I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful
Or just a beautiful disaster
I'm longing for love and the logical
But he's only happy hysterical
I'm searching for some kind of miracle
Waiting so long
Waiting so long
He's soft to the touch
But frayed at the ends he breaks
He's never enough
And still he's more than I can take
Oh and I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful,
He's such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful,
Or just a beautiful disaster
He's so beautiful
Oh he's just so beautiful
He's so beautiful

Please Stand Up
for those who want to die
please stand up
for those who want
to be counted as another
victim of injustice
please stand up
for those who want
to be imprisoned without
a guilty hand or mind
please stand up
for those who want to
disappear from this world
for those who want
to be mothers and mourn
for the death and disappearance
of their sons
please stand up
for those fathers and wannabe
breadwinners
soon you will lose your job
and soon another depression comes
please stand up
for those who expect too much from government
only to be disappointed
on a rising statistical data
for unemployment and inflation
and market crashes
please stand up
for those who want to be
a part of a sea disaster
or an avalanche or a tsunami
for those who want to be
part of the manifest of those
who perish either
by fire or water or air
for those who perish
from a calamity
nature-made or man-made
please stand up
tell me your name,
state your address
and telephone number
you don't want to be in?
good heavens!
the judgment committee
has already taken your name
this is the inevitable
this is not preventable
and so
prepare, the next day
it shall be you or her or him
(or me)
thank you
for not standing, destiny
shall make you
stand just the same

Tiger In My Tank
I bought some rock star ashes,
From the back of rolling stone
I guess he wouldnt mind it,
They couldnt sell his soul
The tiger in my tank, is going to go extinct
And Im not feelin so good myself,
I think Im on the brink
Of disaster
I had a dream last night
The tv and the phone
Grew some legs and took a walk
And left me all alone
The tiger in my tank, is going to go extinct
And Im not feelin so good myself,
I think Im on the brink
Of disaster
When I grow up ill be
An angry little whore,
Ill give you all the finger
Ill sell you all what for

All Night Stand
All night stand,
Been around seen a thousand places.
All night stand,
Seen a good half a million faces.
Because Ive lived this life,
And I made it for myself.
If you scandalize my name,
Then you scandalize yourself.
Because Im not to blame,
For the things that Ive been doing.
You all say that Im bad,
And Ill only end in ruin.
All night stand,
With a different girl each night.
All night stand,
With two hundred miles to ride.
But I wont give it up,
As long as I can make the bread.
When I do, I shall stop,
Close my eyes and go to bed.
And forget all this night[? ],
And all the people on my back.
Once Im free from these chains,
I aint never looking back.
All night stand,
Been around seen a million faces, yeah.
All night stand,
Seen a good half a million places, yeah.
All night stand,
Cant get these people off my back.
All night stand,
Ten percent for this and that.
All night stand,
All night stand.

Very Good Of Human
It is very good of human
That we act as man or woman
Life is not at all limited
Many things are omitted
Still may be early days
Things may come and go away
We need to find solution
With strong faith and resolution
Try your level best
Stand against the crucial test
That may give you way out
May ward off possible rout
It is natural to have imperfection
But can be addressed with action
With resolve not to repeat again
Even if that may cause little pain
Life is not meant to remember past
But to pick threads and move fast
You may love to remember His blessings
He may help you in tracing
It may then be called weakness
If that rushes every time on face
Heart has strong wall to store
Nothing to reveal any more
Leave behind the foot prints
If you can pick up any hint
There is lot more to perform and act
Life is wheel which may never stop in fact

I Do Not Fear... I Fear!
i do not fear....
Armagadden, not the end,
not soldiers wearing masks,
not the plague, not nuclear disaster....
not prisons, not persecution,
not being labeled or hated.
not losing it all,
not guns, not drugs, nor
one world order.....
but i do fear....
not living all that i can live,
not giving all that i can give,
not matching beliefs with action,
not seeing all people as people,
not doing what i know is right....
not standing when i should stand,
not saying what i should say....
not writing the words i'm given....

Stand By
Youve got to learn, youve got to learn how to follow the leader
Youve got to turn, turn off your pride and youre life will be sweeter
Love comes from god, surely, surely, surely you can see that
If you check out your heart, theres a part that youre keeping from me
Why dont you hold on tight, make this flight, weve got the whole night
Saddle up your gear, have no fear, we are here, hey
Better make it soon, give me room, come on and stand by me
Come on and stand by, cause there is no time, no time to sit
Ill bet youll be quick about it, and I know you will,
Once you learn that you cant live without it
Lord only knows how long, how long, how long I have waited
And the moment is near, line em up, get em ready at the gate
Were gonna keep em strong, moving on, weve got the whole night
No looking back, where its at, its right now, hey
Better make it soon, give me room, come on and stand by me
Theres gonna be no looking back, so baby, take everything youll ever need
Sure nough moving on, keep it strong, its a whole new game and a brand new street
You know, uh, you said you would if you could, Ill make it good to ya
Dont you stop til we get to the top, hey, ninety-nine and a half just wont do, stand by me
Hey, hey, if its real, what you feel, come on and stand by
Dont you stop til we get to the top, hey, ninety-nine and a half just wont do, stand by me
Come on and stand by, ha, stand by me, hey, hey, hey

On The Drag
Youre only happy when youre sad
Youre top fueled and youre bad
Parachute in your back pack and
Your knees under your chin
And your boyfriends getting mad
At all the time you waste
Trying to put your finger on it
The allure of st. marks place
On the drag, on the drag
Youre all waiting round for something
And its never coming back
On the drag, on the drag
Its a genuine disaster
And its come to make you king
On the drag
I wont die until Im dead,
Are the first words that he said
Dont try to interrupt him,
cause hes never gonna stop
And the time is standing still
With all this time to kill
And Im trying to walk away
From 1st avenue to a
On the drag, on the drag
Its a genuine disaster
And weve crowned him with his crown
On the drag, on the drag
Were all waiting round for something
And its never coming back
On the drag, on the drag
Were all waiting round for something
And its never coming back
On the drag, on the drag
Were all waiting for disaster
And we crowned him with his crown

My Life Times
My life in the morning sun
My life in the speeding car
Too much to lose
My life on the empty roads
My life in the electric room
Too much to lose
Too much to lose
So hear the way that the world is calling
My life to you
Show the way that I'll keep it coming
My life to you
My life to you
My life to you
My life in the messy room
My life in the greasy girl
My life to you
My life in the wall of shame
My life in the passing car
My life to lose
My life to you
My life to you
So hear the way that the world is calling
My life to you
Show the way that I'll keep it coming
My life to you
My life to you

Your love and our love stand for always

Just say the word you can have it now
