I walked 47 miles of barbed wire
Use a cobra snake for a necktie
Got a brand new house on the roadside child
Made out of rattlesnake hide
Brand new chimney on top
Made out of human skulls
Come and take a little walk with me Arlene
Tell me who do you love
Who do you love
Who do you love
Who do you love
Arlene took me by my hand
Said cool it Robert you know your my man
Who do you love
Who do you love
Who do you love
Night was dark the sky was blue
Down the alley we was swingin' through
Lord I heard just what I seen
Who do you love
Who do you love
Who do you love

Hey, Mona, hey hey hey hey, Mona,
I'm gonna tell you what I'm gonna do,
I'm gonna build my house next door to you,
Can I make love to you once in a while?
Maybe we could do a little kissing and tellin' lies.
When I come out on the front, girl,
You'll listen to my heart goin' bumpity bump.
I need you baby and it ain't no lie,
When I'm through lovin' I'll surely die

From A Buick 6
I got this graveyard woman, you know she keeps my kids
But my soulful mama you know she keeps me hid
Shes a junkyard angel and she always gives me bread
Well if I go down diein you know shes bound to put a blanket on my bed
Well when the pipeline gets broken and Im lost on the river bridge
Im all cracked up on the highway and in the waters edge
And then she comes down the thruway ready to sew me up with a thread
Well if I go down diein you know shes bound to put a blanket on my bed
Well she dont make me nervous, she dont talk too much
She walks like bo diddley and she dont need no crutch
She keeps this four-ten all loaded with lead
Well if I go down dyin you know shes bound to put a blanket on my bed
Well you know I need a steam-shovel mama to keep away the dead
I need a dump truck baby to unload my head
She brings me everything and more and just like I said
Well if I go down dyin you know shes bound to put a blanket on my bed

Seaside Bar Song
Well billy bought a chevy 40 coupe deluxe
Chrome wheels, stick shift
Give her gas, pop the clutch
Little girls on the corner
Like a diamond they shine
Someday billy Im gonna make em all mine
Hey girl, you wanna ride in daddys cadillac?
Because I love the way your long hair falls down your back
Bo diddley, bo diddleys at the seaside bar
Well run barefoot in the sand, listen to his guitar
You say your mums gonna meet you when the morning comes
And your papas gonna beat you cause he knows youre out on the run
Im gonna live a life of love and tonight youre the one
The highway is alive tonight
So baby do not be frightened
Theres something bout a pretty girl on a sweet summer
Night
That gets this boy excited
Radio man finally understands and plays you something you can move to
You lay back easy ...
Your girl leans over and says
Daddy, can you turn that radio up any louder?
Ah, the juke joints humming
Everybody came down
Little willy and his soul boom putting all that stuff down
Well dont let that daylight steal your soul
Get in your wheels and roll, roll, roll, roll, roll
Mamas gonna meet you when the morning comes
And your daddys gonna beat you cause he knows youre out on the run
But I dont care Im gonna live and laugh and love while the nights still

Somewhere in the shadows of your mind

Although our love could never be
I find I think about you all the time
Mmm baby
Am I in your fantasies the way you always wander into mine?
Ooh
Are you longing endlessly, just like me deep inside?
Oh baby, baby

When the nights are dark and cold
Do you think of me, do you think of me?

Do you think of me, do you think of me?

Do you think of me, do you think of me?
Am I the one you're dreaming of?
Do you think of me, do you think of me?

We drift away and leave the world behind, baby
But it's only make-believe
Love can be so unkind

Suppers Ready
Lovers leap
Walking across the sitting-room, I turn the television off.
Sitting beside you, I look into your eyes.
As the sound of motor cars fades in the night time,
I swear I saw your face change, it didnt seem quite right.
...and its hello babe with your guardian eyes so blue
Hey my baby dont you know our love is true.
Coming closer with our eyes, a distance falls around our bodies.
Out in the garden, the moon seems very bright,
Six saintly shrouded men move across the lawn slowly.
The seventh walks in front with a cross held high in hand.
...and its hey babe your suppers waiting for you.
Hey my baby, dont you know our love is true.
Ive been so far from here,
Far from your warm arms.
Its good to feel you again,
Its been a long long time. hasnt it?
The guaranteed eternal sanctuary man
I know a farmer who looks after the farm.
With water clear, he cares for all his harvest.
I know a fireman who looks after the fire.
You, cant you see hes fooled you all.
Yes, hes here again, cant you see hes fooled you all.
Share his peace,
Sign the lease.
Hes a supersonic scientist,
Hes the guaranteed eternal sanctuary man.
Look, look into my mouth he cries,
And all the children lost down many paths,
I bet my life youll walk inside
Hand in hand,
Gland in gland
With a spoonful of miracle,
Hes the guaranteed eternal sanctuary.
We will rock you, rock you little snake,
We will keep you snug and warm.
Ikhnaton and itsacon and their band of merry men
Wearing feelings on our faces while our faces took a rest,
We walked across the fields to see the children of the west,
But we saw a host of dark skinned warriors
Standing still below the ground,
Waiting for battle.
The fights begun, theyve been released.
Killing foe for peace...bang, bang, bang. bang, bang, bang...
And theyre giving me a wonderful potion,
cos I cannot contain my emotion.
And even though Im feeling good,
Something tells me Id better activate my prayer capsule.
Todays a day to celebrate, the foe have met their fate.
The order for rejoicing and dancing has come from our warlord.
How dare I be so beautiful?
Wandering through the chaos the battle has left,
We climb up a mountain of human flesh,
To a plateau of green grass, and green trees full of life.
A young figure sits still by a pool,
Hes been stamped human bacon by some butchery tool.
(he is you)
Social security took care of this lad.
We watch in reverence, as narcissus is turned to a flower.
A flower?
Willow farm
If you go down to willow farm,
To look for butterflies, flutterbyes, gutterflies
Open your eyes, its full of surprise, everyone lies,
Like the fox on the rocks,
And the musical box.
Oh, theres mum & dad, and good and bad,
And everyones happy to be here.
Theres winston churchill dressed in drag,
He used to be a british flag, plastic bag, what a drag.
The frog was a prince, the prince was a brick, the brick was an egg,
The egg was a bird.
(fly away you sweet little thing, theyre hard on your tail)
Hadnt you heard?
(theyre going to change you into a human being!)
Yes, were happy as fish and gorgeous as geese,
And wonderfully clean in the morning.
Weve got everything, were growing everything,
Weve got some in
Weve got some out
Weve got some wild things floating about
Everyone, were changing everyone,
You name them all,
Weve had them here,
And the real stars are still to appear.
All change!
Feel your body melt;
Mum to mud to mad to dad
Dad diddley office, dad diddley office,
Youre all full of ball.
Dad to dam to dum to mum
Mum diddley washing, mum diddley washing,
Youre all full of ball.
Let me hear you lies, were living this up to the eyes.
Ooee-ooee-ooee-oowaa
Momma I want you now.
And as you listen to my voice
To look for hidden doors, tidy floors, more applause.
Youve been here all the time,
Like it or not, like what you got,
Youre under the soil (the soil, the soil),
Yes, deep in the soil (the soil, the soil, the soil, the soil!).
So well end with a whistle and end with a bang
And all of us fit in our places.
Apocalypse in 9/8 (co-starring the delicious talents of gabble ratchet)
With the guards of magog, swarming around,
The pied piper takes his children underground.
Dragons coming out of the sea,
Shimmering silver head of wisdom looking at me.
He brings down the fire from the skies,
You can tell hes doing well by the look in human eyes.
Better not compromise.
It wont be easy.
666 is no longer alone,
Hes getting out the marrow in your back bone,
And the seven trumpets blowing sweet rock and roll,
Gonna blow right down inside your soul.
Pythagoras with the looking glass reflects the full moon,
In blood, hes writing the lyrics of a brand new tune.
And its hey babe, with your guardian eyes so blue,
Hey my baby, dont you know our love is true,
Ive been so far from here,
Far from your loving arms,
Now Im back again, and babe its gonna work out fine.
As sure as eggs is eggs (aching mens feet)
Cant you feel our souls ignite
Shedding ever changing colours, in the darkness of the fading night,
Like the river joins the ocean, as the germ in a seed grows
We have finally been freed to get back home.
Theres an angel standing in the sun, and hes crying with a loud voice,
This is the supper of the mighty one,
Lord of lords,
King of kings,
Has returned to lead his children home,
To take them to the new jerusalem.
