Fifty Two

You live life by drips, yours not a big sea, the blue light hid, only fools gyrate, bring each day few gifts, is this how you delegate, latticed with fibs, it's all just a wheeze, truth gets hid, this is no child’s game, around your greed, how you cherish your ways, what about the kids, are they to be squeezed, left gone adrift, golden wings can't negate, their flight on the breeze, can't wait to get away, if you knew how to give, we wouldn't need, to hide from your grip, cant you see ?

Ffity One

In darkness and grain blue, please give me a sign, release me of my virtue, is it me gone cold, those of them brings news, to others you've told, my tears ask me why, should I cry for you, there are no good byes, those lives made bold, by your cock a hoops, makes me feel old, your eyes in constant flight, care is not an issue, but castigates our lives, come near to me i moan, can we light the fuse, no one lives alone, should i lie for you, bells ring out the night, our journey fires what's true, tell me if it's right?

Fifty

The sum of constant days, lovers please delay, the ones to close the gate, forget about your fear, all the times when late, let other souls draw near, to broken laws pray, for those consumed by hate, be gentle in your ways, others hold you dear, why scream or hesitate, they will find you here, simple drunken orator, bells ring out to say, better this than fate, don't worry about the Seer, he is just a knave, measure life not years, lucky to live like crazy, each evening conjugate, how everyone here is brave, who passes this way.

Forty Nine

Her lips twist like knives, she is not forgiving, her eyes dance river wide, what else is new, bites me when she's sinning, on trips to secret venues, my mother says keep wise, she'll make you do the living, many a tortured night, no love runs smooth, a tobacco blonde full of lies, maybe it's true, maybe she's right, fresh alive and swimming, sunlight, water, sky, she takes the whole crew, laughter's for the living, her nails are bright blue, kicks water at the tide, her fame belongs to winning, hails me with that smile, is this our beginning ?

Forty Eight

Oh go away with you, don't take me as your fate, love's not for fools, useless to sing, or say sorry you're late, whenever you ring, to hell with rumour, if i want to pulsate, when i dance with you, it don't mean a thing, you're no special case, in fresh clothes and things, you'll borrow the moon, not church or state, to let me jump curfew, you're never my cling, my vision isn't great, can't see anything, I lie in sweet ruin, a warm hazy daze, let me go with you, praise all the days.

Forty Seven

You say you'll cheat fate, by wearing a red raincoat, find gold in an trash crate, is this what you do, never know the weather zone, but smile like a fool, you always come late, thrown away your 'fone, nothing's to your taste, give money to schools, you've got no boat, who knows if it's true, oh you carry weight, when you're on your own, scoff at those who hesitate, if you go boom, when they need a show, they have their own curfew, cold white hate, strokes your bones, citizen comrade at the gate, I'd say you're done.

Forty Six

Search for desolate fuel, set a passage clear, nothing else will do, we carry all our home, to somewhere not so near, better than going alone, nothing left to rue, set sail for different years, from all we once knew, my talk makes you groan, what else for a career, don't worry about the tone, dance these torrid blues, find something else that's dear, no need to feel spooked, dream of other rules, ached visions at our rear, golden domes unused, take another loan, perfume for tentative ears, on twisted paths we're blown, bring me sparkling jewels, let me laugh through tears, who needs to be cruel, sweep away the fear.

Forty Five

Look at me you Nerd, I'm shaping up to leave, are you scared, like fish swim away, can't your eyes see, don't say I'm great, I can take the hurt, your song of the sea, not really being there, always too late, as if you'd need, to post me in a shipping crate, why worry if I slur, know what might have been, you don't care, won't even kneel to pray, for a life of ease, nights when I'm off the rails, is it my grey hair, do I need new teeth, will hope get you there, look at me I plead.

Forty Four

Give your eye to trains, don't ever hear them moan, showcase it's your way, forget what's on your mind, in a life of soul, you're not the lonely kind, singing makes you resonate, turns us all to stone, hands strain across your face, you won't take fright, pleading like a dope, for any note you find, always go against the grain, stay out there alone, don't worry if they hesitate, your songs make them unwind, think it's you they own, not what's deep inside, bum notes make you late, all your deeds on show, it must make someone change, where else can you go?

Forty Three

I seek the right tone, that Freeway's no Spa, love is a joke, a trail that's well used, searching for your Da, life circles around you, Saints can reveal their bones, it won't take you far, can't do passion alone, you don't need a feud, at some throwaway bar, to know what to do, don't drink alone, your voice gone la la, wait for me to come home, before heading for the blue, when we wave ta ra, dance away all our dues, ours not a lucky star, safe within a credit zone, songs inside you whisper Pa, nowhere we can phone.

Forty Two

Don't pray in the rain, or swear upon your mother, stuff you can't take, hope is free to use, all the stuff you smother, a place without refuge, can you see that portrait, like a wounded trooper, strapped to a wooden frame, whatever money you lose, don't curse your brother, he's paid his dues, hard stuff fires the brain, fools live without bother, then run away, no book or dead curfew, makes you like the others, despite their call to ruin, you'll pay whatever gain, seeks you as a lover, spirit rise and dance away, don't you bother.

Forty One

If I warm my toes, around your fire, why do you start to cry, what you refuse, is for many a lie, the last of me losing, a chance to blow, on dancing wires, what you don't know, I'm just the fool, who pays for the crime, runs with the mules, no more's than how, doesn't make it right, by this act alone, my blood's smoky blue, why don’t you inquire, you know what is true, I'm looking old, you don't need a sign, this place without windows, screams out the time.

Forty

We share jokes and put, hope on those who disappear, geese rise in the dusk, no one hires a crown, to be ushered in here, for pulling her down, and those who are fussed, she'll always hold dear, they know what's been lost, in our summer town, where everything is clear, you know who is sound, someone to trust, she walks in like the deer, with a hint of musk, in hazy bars she's known, to hide away the fears, never on her own, we torch the falling years, each night is a must, the laughs and happy tears, a life before the dust. .

Thirty Nine

Hail a ship for France, say what you want to say, you won't get another chance, don't let me act untrue, life is framed, you're no fool, face it you're banned, if you let me trail, a creature's prance, i'll tell you what to do, when kindness fails, to make things smooth, why look askance, the room's a dark pale, passion always passes, kindness might acrue, nothing more to say, so little to needing you, sliding down the scale, God's sake make me pant, turn me around again, let's have another dance.

Thirty Eight

Your red lips flash ornate, in rooms where flowers grow, champagne cognac to chase, forget how much we blew, kick the need to know, polish lonely jewels, we'll always be ingrates, don't worry about the loan, celebrate what remains, you never deem to rue, the way we've been let down, no longer part of you, a worry without gain, at supper ask for bones, stumble in the drains, believe it's all a ruse, a dream of past night's gone, play some homesick blues, wouldn't it be great, to live life fresh anew, tumble in the rain, feel we never lose.

Thirty Seven

Since you've gone away, i don't know what to do, but each night pray, laugh in a hurricane tone, see my shape in pools, don't use me like a drone, or trick me anyway, the sea still surrounds you, you say there is a train, that leads to the foam, take me if you want to, but not just as a loan, walls are turning grey, you say howdydo, when you're on the make, but want to go alone, not singing of the Blues, with your bag of stones, your eyes shine like jakes, see me here in truth, rising on the plain, i will catch you soon.

Thirty Six

Fire and the evening light, where you can see what's true, save the times I cry, longing for that zone, that doesn't come with blues, North or Southern tones, this village is our life, it's always here to sooth, not lost on Freeway lights, puts jelly on our bones, accepts all we do, when we seek to quietly atone, living here's a paradise, we never makes the news, just want a better life, to shelter all that's home, this place is our glue, far from being alone, cities aren't that nice, no need to look through windows, , or feel a need to fight, to know who's screwing you.

Thirty Five

Beat down my walls, flit amidst the rain, hover at infirmary's door, thank god for my home, you are my shame, always looking to roam, what are you doing this for, just leave on a train. I'm not divined by whores, why can't you atone, dance away the pain, blow love down a trombone, you chart away the score, your face a savage shade, say I'll pay you roar, don't spit on the floor, spinning out your games, no one needs you anymore, you always touch the bone, never want to say, the time is too raw, face yourself again.

Thirty Four

Please don't identify, one lonely departure, between moon and sky, say to me there's nothing, not ripped from a sewer, you never would offer, like angst on a wedding night, scared of telling the truth, stuff that'd make it right, if you really want to suffer, don't turn on my blues, or behave like a tosser, leave stuff out of sight, saved for some other fool, butter my dreams by candlelight, you should enjoy calling, instead of being cruel, embrace everything, why stop me trying to fly, bring good news, I don't dance on wire, to pay my dues.

Thirty Three

Is that you Jade, laughing as you flow, to keep men happy, just the same call, by the river's flow, tenderness in a Mall, back in Salt Lake City, the year of the blow, take a piece of cake, geese in a barren fall, serenade with croaking tones, sad as they bawl, keep that trouble at bay, no life's worth a moan, give nothing away, you'll go to the ball, your face is pure snow, diamond heels make you tall, in the roaring Hades, be kind as you know, step aside the freeway, forget lonely roads.

Thirty Two

Some nights i ask why, we can ever atone, stars shine out like fire, might as well be shame, our lengh of credit zone, still that far from fame, your gaze within my sight, the wind runs cold, you're gone another time, are kids and dogs your game, then don't get stoned, just stay the same, when you hear me cry, or run from a hanging phone, it's not enough to sigh, buy some rusty nails, make us all a home, a house is not a jail, no matter how we fight, or strain our yellow bones, we can do this right, smell the ozone.

Thirty One

Ask who brings serenity, a creature in a jar, rescued from the sea, like someone in a frame, notes a different mark, something you can't name, it's others set you free, a distant bell afar, back to childhood dreams, is this a different age, you drive around in cars, but still feel strange, nothing fills your need, except a hazy fog, sometimes you can scream, dancing on the waves, a sail for a spar, all the stuff that's wreckage, all the things you see, all the things you're not, is that you laughing, who needs a Da ?

Thirty

Happy songs in my car, holy water in my tank, they only leave a scar, blown away in little ways, a gurgle from the crank, an awful terrible waste, you peel away my bark, make even sunshine dank, scatter ashes on the bar, what is left to say, my mind fills up blank, clinging to the day, Oh you are a dog, no one else to thank, use me like a log, bring me to this state, am allowed to call you Hank, except on holidays, I never know how far, what is down the line, but see what's going on, lay you down intact.

Twenty Nine

To begin again, it's hardly new, blown down the Freeway, I've lost a few, give me your sight, guide me with the truth, now my voice is tight, before you groan, i'm not your issue, don't try to hone, this part of paradise, when you refuse, in your own special way, my love serene, kiss me quietly, where others have dreamed, with a regular rate, i could have bloomed, made everyone gay, sung a simple refrain, lonely men soothed, beyond the hurricane.

Twenty Eight

Can't get around the news, when you danced away, no one sang the blues, or stepped off the Metro, you have no shame angel, to leave me the loans, i haven't got a clue, like all in heaven's way, to ask what's your due, everything i call a home, is spririted just the same, the children saw you go, I sing successful tunes, to a brass bird cage, nothing's here brand new, i hate to be alone, don't see anyone anyway, there's jelly in my bones, truth is a bitter fruit, we jump this train, have no need of you, . walking in the rain.

Twenty Seven

For those who ask of late, don't chance to tell me why, the house is losing slates, run a bath with foam, giving is your creed, your loving isn't done, d'you remember the holidays, our trips to the sea, when you tried to paint, studied each of my bones, become suddenly free, now we're alone, guide me through these days, make my troubles ease, understand why I pray, don't let me cast stones, help me find my feet, assist my journey home, you wonder why i say, with artists like these, create horizons in the rain, enhance my every need.

Twenty Six

Pillows furl beneath the sky, death brings no easy due, even where you lie, who cares what is fake, it comes for you too, fire burns in the grate, something deep inside, not just an ordinary blue, makes you want to scythe, those who come too late, say not me you fool, who are you to ordinate, however hard you try, love is not immune, don't tell me how to cry, dying's when you castigate, those who care for you, whatever you do walk away, these troubled nights, that bring bad news, a hundred questions why, as if you knew.

Twenty Five

Like my ship on the sea, i swear to the night, just let me reach the quays, a shoal of lost hordes, all in flight, float from the ocean floor, thank you Jesus, between moon and sky, will you let me see, from the earth's back door, the rich man's eyes, at sight of the poor, who suffer by the reeds, their souls strung tight, they'll set me free, in my eyes the shore, need to do what's right, splash the Cologne, please rock me gently, say everything's fine, don't worry baby, I'm not trying to hide.

Twenty Four

In the Spring twilight, you see the poor, huddled by the security line, it's cold for the season, sons and daughters, share the same freedom, on the river a Neap tide, brings a truth sought, you don't need an inquiry, to shiver in the lee, city lights over the port, sick of being, or worry about time, if you've been caught, in some policy drive, it's just the reason, to head for the slaughter, like a guilty plea, every walk of life, ends here with nought, some bring their wives, they crowd the back door.

Twenty Three

A cross for a glove, to where we drink wine, she gives us a shove, a deal done at Primark, the waste is a crime, life is too stark, she looks up above, lost in her time, the year she goes bust, her hair is a jump start, she hasn't a dime, who'll lend her a car, she steers my old tub, initially fine, the cops take a look, it's never easy or calm, locked to her highs, my home's not far, she sings a blues number, among shop front signs, life's more than a crust, with her by my side.

Twenty Two

She has some spark, her lovely face lights, won't wait in the yard, she hankers for love, the rest of the night, why worry what's above, in a supermarket park, they ask her why, she hangs around the bars, we all need a crust, a trolley suits her fine, forget about doubles, she never walks far, to walk is a crime, each step there's a car, and works without gloves, unlike other times, Okay when it's good, if there's ever a chart, to show us what's right, lets us give marks, then I'm first in line.
