Intro realaudio
Instrumental.

At long last realaudio
My dream of peace
There's room to think
I sleep with hope
God is in his place
So pay attention...

The content has changed
There's form to function
I know what to do
I dream of peace...


Everything realaudio
Through a circus eye I saw everything
Can't understand why, can't change anything
I bow down now and say all my prayers
Don't care about how just go anywhere

I make a list, I list everything
I make a wish, I wish anything
Won't shut up till I've said every word
Don't understand why just know
That this should stop now

Maybe the stars can't decide
Maybe they're too damn tired...

Don't roll out tears to match every sigh
But I raise my hell up so very high
I drag myself round from sea to sea
Don't understand why just know
That this should stop now
Everything is green tonight...
Go!


Down realaudio
Let's just sit, we'll waste some time
On a quiet street (an incredible night boy)
Been taught to think every choice is free
Such a wonderful night, such a beautiful street
... Well I guess this is progress(?)

Lord I feel like this monkey says
I have to do the ugly days over...
Gotta' make it to the sunshine,
I'll be right at home.

Now jack and paul gonna save this tree
But it fell right down (an incredible time boy)
I see this tree, like I see them all
On a wonderful night, on a beautiful street
... Well I guess this is progress.


Turtle song realaudio
What could I do to change your mind?
What could I do to change my mind?
A beautiful day... not a bird in the sky

What would it take to change your mind?
What will it take to change my mind?
A beautiful day... Like a cloud in the sky


It's Okay realaudio
Listen,
I paid the price, so goodluck yourself
I bring them in, so goodluck yourself
I filled the crack, so goodluck yourself
I sail along, so goodluck yourself
Well timed and true, we're tired of you
Listen...

The price realaudio
Peace man come real soon
Run your ragged ass around the room
Peace man come in last
Like sugar on the honey child... Yes
I send it down, I found a way
To start up something different I could feel like
I send it down, from far away the sound
Is just the same as what it feels like
Peace man come real soon
Run your ragged eyes around the room

Showbizz realaudio
Instrumental.

Tired realaudio
Better lay low, still the sea
You take it too far
Water saved us, spill the sea
You take it too far

Wash your brain realaudio
It would seem that the time is now
It would seem that the place is there
It would be such a perfect thing
I would say that the curse is on
1. better let that voodoo play
2. every goddamn lovely day
3. better let that voodoo play
4...
Your t.v. and talking is wasting my time
I see trouble on the good side
You better wash your fucking mind

Yes it seems like a worthy prize
... Like there's no mistake
It would be such a perfect time
I would say slam your own down first
Every single day, I hear every bit of promise
In the things that you don't say
I won't mention names
Just that every single moment
Isn't wasted my own way... So what?
I see trouble on the good side
You better wash your fucking mind


Soda jerk fountain realaudio
Instrumental.

Suicide machine realaudio
Come down to the ground and drive like a son of a bitch
In your little green car
Around and around we got nowhere to go
But then nothings too far
I make an exception 'cause I know who you are
But in a little while ain't nothing gonna make
This ugly face sit down and shut the fuck up...

I'm tired of the suicide machines
(let's just say it won't be taking too long)

Come down to the ground and drive like a son of a bitch
And I know I do too
You sell it so well and that thing you don't miss?
Guess it doesn't miss you
I'm tired of the suicide machines

Quitting time so I waited for the course to bring my goodnight
I had the necessary fear and it was alright
I would not do a thing to save my own life
... Love has a homicidal feel with every goodbye
... And it's the perfect way to get on someone's good side
... It may be the only thing you finish in your whole life
... Which is exactly what you need to make you feel right


Thank you, Good evening no realaudio
