For each little bit of you, if anyone enquires, don’t give them a clue, life isn't a stone, thrown into the fire, why should I atone, my little cup of ruin, is no more than desire, I still have the tunes, know in my bones, this poisoned desire, does it make you groan, whoever reads the news, to see who's for hire, I know my own truth, if no one 'phones, who needs a choir, leave me well alone, I’ll dance down the avenues, sing on the wire, I’ve always paid dues, am no kiss ass liar.

Sober you ask why, this way’s been chosen, before anything you can deny, more a dread space, you’re mouth frozen, with tired phrases, sing my favourite lines, our time done with roses, made better when you try, are all the great stations beyond my life hopeful, shrunken at waste, even the graveside, witnesses love's cloaking, clouds sail the sky, what settles on your face, neither time provokes, or blows over the traces, a flower at my side, just some little token, more a wish to verify, what truth is spoken.

Why live in a haze, sheltered from the sound, crumpled up like cellophane, best not to moan, or burn a holy candle, life is only a loan, jump the trains, scour the land, for that perfect place, in your worn out clothes, feet on the ground, you're not on your bones, make a step change, blow ten grand, find love instead of trade, when someone groans, do handstands, move away from that zone, not chained to your days, your heart expands, you’re so great, don't you understand?

I need another home, somewhere else to stay, now that you’re gone, what I need to do, is ship out the waste, forget about that Dude, in troubled zones, find solace every day, try not to feel alone, the sea is lemon blue, cafe's swell with rain, I’m feeling nothing new, here in my bones, but know there’s a way, to take control, something in my mood, that doesn’t laugh and say, sunshine kills the Blues, brilliant pheromones, whisper your name, my waters hold firm, I'm dancing today.

if you knew how to give, we wouldn't need, these places to live, this is no child’s game, bound by greed, fear dimming your days, what about the kids, with all their surly needs, would you cast them adrift, dreams can’t negate, lies you told to me, would you send them away, with all your little fibs, think it's a wheeze, another one of your tricks, you're a fool to celebrate, each day without gifts. instead you pontificate, living life by drips, a permanent Halloween, where loving light trips, like a lemon squeezed?

it just goes to show, you don't need ease, on some lonely pillow, to witness your rights, care less about the deeds, than your own weary lies, when you talk of loans, the energy to release, all that you’ve lost, instead of forced jibes, what do you need, behind all of this trying, is it all you know, how to strip out equity, keeping up a cheerful tone, don't try to be wise, it's nothing to me, you've marked many a night, bitter with the blow, in this lost cafĂ©’ , if heaven’s in your soul, look to the sea.

You who own the night, the wind hushed fog dunes, do you wonder why, I keep a cheerful home, beat away the blues, always on the go, forget the bitter times, all the cool untruths, bars, rain, thoughts of homicide, dreams of flying solo, always glad to see you, since last time you phoned, the air plashes by, the evening's getting cool, some wait all their lives, others touch the stones, let them set the spume, what they had before, men whistle passing by, you laugh and hum a tune, say it's stupid to lie, my gun goes Boom!!!
