Tangerine
Measuring a summers day,
I only finds it slips away to grey,
The hours, they bring me pain.
*tangerine, tangerine,
Living reflection from a dream;
I was her love, she was my queen,
And now a thousand years between.
Thinking how it used to be,
Does she still remember times like these?
To think of us again?
And I do.
* chorus

Tangerine
Tangerine, turning green
Cellophane, window pane
Socialise, paralysed
Plastic faces suck me dry, tangerine, tangerine, tangerine, tangerine
Chorus:i know its sad, lifes just a piece of fruit
Touch down, new ground
Stop living on the moon - (repeat chorus)
Twenty eight, suffocate
Take a ride, see me fly
Detonate, feel it break
See myself disintegrate, tangerine, tangerine, tangerine, tangerine
(chorus)
See it as I climb, the rain burns in my eyes
So catch me as I fall away, tangerine, tangerine, tangerine, tangerine
(chorus)
I know its sad...

Proceed With Caution
Tangerine coloured lights shine only
As they entertain cameras to a visual scene...
Gone are the skyscraper trees and their nimble branches
Of a most free flowing evergreen...
An angry Winter wind 'tis blowing--
Slicing the easy access warmth of Summers-once sure...
Grey skies now overpower Augusts- once brillance
While the sod 'tis covered in Winter White Pure?
The world has become very quiet...
Resolved by their own images in winds stinging brisk-
'Proceed with caution' Warns: The Tangerine Lights Of Honesty
Enter-O'-Ye uninvited-at YOUR Own Risk!

Who Killed Tangerine?
Whatcha gonna choose the poison or the lines
Lived with crazy pain in all your life
Something in your mind just tells you no
Hope in conversation starts to flow
Stuck inside a wheel, inside a wheel
Wondering everyday is it all for real
Blinking every time a cold wind blow
Our love don't fill a mile in rose
Danger remains
Watcha gonna do when the old man reads you dry
Step down from the plane and pluck the eye
Slide in deeper closer to the bone
Don't you just wish your heart was made of stone?
Waxing like an old crack 45
Counting out the ways you could stay alive
Placing all the banks and feel the stones
My love won't leave her ways of foam
And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over
And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over
And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over
Who killed tangerine?
The prettiest girl I've ever seen
Who killed tangerine?
Who killed tangerine?
The prettiest girl I've ever seen
Who killed tangerine?
And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over
And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over
And when you think it's all over
It's not over, it's not over

Tangerine
Some days I feel tangerine
Some days I feel blue
Some days I just wanna back out of the thing I feel for you
And even though I take your picture everywhere I go,
I use it for a coaster and drink the overflow
Some days I make a lot of money and give it all away
To take my mind off the tangerine colour of your negligee
Beggers cant be choosey if they dont know how to serve
Youve got a different phone number and a lot of nerve
Some days I feel tangerine
Some days I miss you too

The Fairy Queen
On lawn of green with floral borders
Hid little Elf, with twinkling eye.
Whilst 'Tangerine' the fairy queen
Sang to him ~ Brahm's Lullaby.
Came then, another fairy singing
To tempt the elf, way down she flew.
Calling him her elfin darling...
She stayed until the morning dew.
But Tangerine returned at midday
For little elf was cute and shy
His love was hers alone forever,
As she sang to him Brahm's Lullaby.

Tangerine Sky
Say goodbye to a tangerine sky say hello say hello to tomorrow- when you say goodbye
To a tangerine sky you lose your pain lose your fear lose your sorrow
What if you were livin yours instead of hatin mine findin truth and spreadin love and searchin
Deep inside see me glidin swiftly to that place I need to be that home grown irie zone
Harvesting my seeds

Make the best of every situation that I find myself placed in
Decidin right from wrong, choosing my final destination
Cause when its said and done, its just yourself that you are facin
Say goodbye to a tangerine sky say hello say hello to tomorrow- when you say goodbye to a
Tangerine sky you lose your pain lose your fear lose your sorrow
Say say
Say good-bye to tomorrow
Wash your sorrow
Live and learn
Listen up and follow
Do what you so let me rock it
I be dammed if you think you gonna stop it
Popo it drop it d-loc get up on it
Dont you think your sink cause you cant call it
I be the one that balled you up in college
Killa cross just brake you down kottonmouth kings on the radio now
Make you think when you see my face d-loc with style and grace
I wanna touch the sky unleash control wanna feel time travel real thru my soul wanna ride real
High wanna lay real low independent free thought control my zone my zones full blown like a
Plant full grown transform myself thru this microphone hold up .change that tone johnny
Richter come thru with your barritone
Its time to open up your eyes and catch sight
Cause you could wake up in the morning, and not make it to the night
Take advantage of your life, you only get one try
You gonna be satisfied today if tonight you died?
Well Im not that guy, I keep my blood runnin
You say youve had enough, and I say keep it comin
Now youre bummed because youre done and youre left all alone
Shouldve known livin blown youd end up like a clone whaatttt!
Say goodbye to a tangerine sky say hello say hello to tomorrow- when you say goodbye to a
Tangerine sky you lose your pain lose your fear lose your sorrow
Its not a place on any map its kaya meditation that home grown herbal zone peaceful
Medication at peace no understandin no condition but love at peace all accepting to the sky above
Say goodbye to a tangerine sky say hello say hello to tomorrow- when you say goodbye to a
Tangerine sky you lose your pain lose your fear lose your sorrow

Savoy Truffle
Creme tangerine and montelimat
A ginger sling with a pineapple heart
A coffee dessert--yes you know it's good news
But you'll have to have them all pulled out
After the savoy truffle.
Cool cherry cream and a nice apple tart
I feel your taste all the time we're apart
Coconut fudge--really blows down those blues
But you'll have to have them all pulled out
After the savoy truffle.
You might not feel it now
But when the pain cuts through
You're going to know and how
The sweat is going to fill your head
When it becomes too much
You're going to shout aloud
--creme tangerine.
You know that what you eat you are,
But what is sweet now, turns so sour--
We all know obla-di-bla-da
But can you show me, where you are?..
Creme tangerine and montelimat
A ginger sling with a pineapple heart
A coffee dessert--yes you know its good news
But you'll have to have them all pulled out
After the savoy truffle

The Fruity Taste of Life
Sweet and sour is life
What yours shall be, destiny shall contrive
But dependence on destiny shall decrease
And it will then depend on you, my friend decrees
What say you to that?
What surprise can pull from the hat?
Think of the sweet Tangerine
Perhaps you would, the sour Tamarind
They both spell L-I-F-E
For not even in strife
Shall the sweet in Tangerine
Be comparable to the sour in Tamarind

Only A Dream
Last night
The April breeze was whispering
A hearts confession
That could
Mean so much
Starts to touch my wild suspicion
So close, not far away
A bluer world another way
[Chorus:]
Lavender, tangerine
Hmm baby anything
Life is not what it seems.
Make a wish on a star
Oh you'll go far
Life is only a dream
I find a solitude
In my imagination
Past is past, bring it back
Memories are made too fast
I'm giving in no hesitation
So close to mystery
I close my eyes so I can see
[Chorus]
And if you think there is an answer
I tell you what I find
A million miles behind the vista.
[Chorus]

My Mood Swings
She was smitten from the first
By a curious fellow
She said I love the way you talk
And with a a flounce she announces
I love the way that you pronounce it: marshmallow
So she liked to sing along
To her favourite song
From the year that she was born
She had mysterious affairs [? ]
And promptly work out what her age is [? ]
Chorus:
So speak to me
Just like you should
And then you can say those wicked things
And if you want
Well make it good
Before my mood swings
Well he looked like one of those
Who would take off his clothes
Like he would peel a tangerine
Dont ****** know what truly blind is [? ]
Once you have found out what your sign is

Summers Gone
Crack and break, lifes big mistake,
Im feeling it too, theres no way home.
The summers gone,
The summers gone away.
Back down to earth, a conscience burst,
Im feeling it too, just slipped away.
The summers gone,
The love has gone,
The sun has gone away,
Away
Its turned to grey, just burned away,
A moment too soon, weve turned to grey...
Just like yesterday,
Its turned to black and white.
Cold as stone, no contact known
Youre feeling it too, as thoughts decay.
The summers gone, the colours gone,
The sun has gone away
Its turned to grey, just burned away,
A moment too soon, weve turned to grey,
Just like yesterday,
Its turned to black and white.
Oh, youre thinking back, youre going back to places that youve been,
Where days could last forever, but you can only dream,
Oh, were going back Im looking back to places that weve seen,
Moments that have been, places we can dream.
Crash and break, lifes big mistake,
Youre feeling it too, just slipped away.
The love has gone,
The summers gone away.
Its turned to grey, just burned away,
A moment too soon, weve turned to grey,
Just like yesterday, yesterday
Its turned to grey, just burned away,
A moment too soon, weve turned to grey,
Just like yesterday, yesterday...

When Love Finds You
Love sure is something no one can explain
It can bring you such joy, it can bring you pain
And with every emotion, love puts us through
Theres nothing you can say, when love finds you
Love is the power that makes your heart beat
It can make you move mountains, make you drop to your knees
When it finally hits you, you wont know what to do
Theres nothin you can say, when love finds you
Chorus:
Give it all you can give it, when your love comes around
If you put your heart in it, then it wont let you down
Youll find out its true, baby, someday when love finds you
And when you least expect it, it will finally come true
Theres nothing you can say when love finds you
Repeat chorus
Youll find out its true, baby, someday when love finds you

I've Seen That Look On Me
It's four am and you're just getting in.
Your first night out- i won't ask where you've been.
You're so ashamed and your eyes can't meet mine.
I've seen that look on me a thousand times.
Chorus:
What makes us do the things we do heaven only knows.
We think we've got a secret, but it always shows.
I taught you how to cheat, you're doing fine.
I've seen that look on me a thousand times.
But i still love you and so i pretend
And hope i never see that look again.
But if i do i know the fault is mine.
I've seen that look on me a thousand times.

I've seen that look on me a thousand times.

Starfish & Coffee
It was 7:45 we were all in line
2 greet the teacher miss cathleen
First was kevin, then came lucy, third in line was me
All of us where ordinary compared to cynthia rose
She always stood at the back of the line
A smile beneath her nose
Her favorite number was 20 and every single day
If u asked her what she had 4 breakfast
This is what shed say
Starfish and coffee
Maple syrup and jam
Butterscotch clouds, a tangerine
And a side order of ham
If u set your mind free, baby
Maybe youd understand
Starfish and coffee
Maple syrup and jam
Cynthia wore the prettiest dress
With different color socks
Sometimes I wondered if the mates where in her lunchbox
Me and lucy opened it when cynthia wasnt around
Lucy cried, I almost died, u know what we found?
Starfish and coffee
Maple syrup and jam
Butterscotch clouds, a tangerine
And a side order of ham
If u set your mind free, honey
Maybe youd understand
Starfish and coffee
Maple syrup and jam
Starfish and coffee
Cynthia had a happy face, just like the one shed draw
On every wall in every school
But its all right, its 4 a worthy cause
Go on, cynthia, keep singin
Starfish and coffee
Maple syrup and jam
Butterscotch clouds, a tangerine
And a side order of ham
If u set your mind free, baby
Maybe youd understand
Starfish and coffee
Maple syrup and jam

Remember The Days
Astley/fisher
Someone called me just the other day
I thought it was you, but my hopes were washed away
I picked up the telephone, it sent a shiver down my spine
I wanted to hear your voice, and talk about old times
(chorus)
Remember the days when we walked
The times that we talked for hours and hours
Remember the way it used to be, just you and me
Remember the days
Think it over what I say
I know it could be just like it used to be
Do you believe it baby, do you share my point of view
You know that I mean it baby, and all you have to do is
(repeat chorus)
What can I do without you, how can I live without you
The days gonna come, when Im on the run
So Im begging you baby please
Remember the days
(repeat chorus)
What can I do without you, how can I live without you
So come on girl Im begging you please
Come on and talk to me
The times that we walked
The days that we used to walk out in the park
Remember how it used to be
Do you remember, do you remember how good it used to be
Come on girl, I said come on girl
To the left, to the right, were gonna rock all night

All Out Of Love
(graham russell, clive davis)
Im lying alone with my head on the phone
Thinking of you till it hurts
I know you hurt too but what else can we do
Tormented and torn apart
I wish I could carry your smile in my heart
For times when my life seems so low
It would make me believe what tomorrow could bring
When today doesnt really know, doesnt really know
(chorus)
Im all out of love, Im so lost without you
I know you were right, believing for so long
Im all out of love, what am I without you
I cant be too late to say I was so wrong
I want you to come back and carry me home
Away from these long, lonely nights
Im reaching for you, are you feeling it too?
Does the feeling seem oh, so right?
And what would you say if I called on you now
And said that I cant hold on?
Theres no easy way, it gets harder each day
Please love me or Ill be gone, Ill be gone
(chorus)
Ooh, what are you thinking of
What are you thinking of
What are you thinking of
What are you thinking of

Well I can't take this any longer
well I can't be this anymore
well I'm not getting any stronger
I don't know how to feel this anymore
[Chorus]
well you can tell me what you want
after all that you've done for me
we can't make it all undone
can't you see that
I don't know what to think
and you can't tell me we're dreaming
I wish that I could just let this go
what I'm thinking
I don't know what I'm feeling
we just need space for breathing
I wish that I could just let this go
what I'm thinking but I don't know
It happen such a thousand times before
I'm up agianst a wall I can't ignore
I wish you didn't feel so good to hold
cause then it wouldn't be so hard to know

I wish I could tell you that everything
was gonna be alright
I just wanna love you so maybe I
can let this go
