Sing with me!

We'll be fighting in the streets

With our children at our feet

And the morals that they worship will be gone

And the men who spurred us on

Sit in judgement of all wrong

They decide and the shotgun sings the song

 

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution

Take a bow for the new revolution

Smile and grin at the change all around me

Pick up my guitar and play

Just like yesterday

Then I'll get on my knees and pray

We don't get fooled again

 

The change, it had to come

We knew it all along

We were liberated from the foe, that' all

And the world looks just the same

And history ain't changed

'Cause the banners, they all flown in the last war

 

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution

Take a bow for the new revolution

Smile and grin at the change all around me

Pick up my guitar and play

Just like yesterday

Then I'll get on my knees and pray

We don't get fooled again

No, no!

 

I'll move myself and my family aside

If we happen to be left half alive

I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky

For I know that the hypnotized never lie

 

Do ya?

 

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

 

There's nothing in the street

Looks any different to me

And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye

And the parting on the left

Is now the parting on the right

And the beards have all grown longer overnight

 

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution

Take a bow for the new revolution

Smile and grin at the change all around me

Pick up my guitar and play

Just like yesterday

Then I'll get on my knees and pray

We don't get fooled again

Don't get fooled again

No, no!

 

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

 

Meet the new boss

Same as the old boss

Only love,

Can make it rain,

The way the beach is kissed by the sea.

Only love,

Can make it rain,

Like the sweat of lovers laying in the fields.

 

Love, Reign o'er me.

Love, Reign o'er me, Rain on me.

 

On the dry and dusty road,

The nights we spend apart alone.

I need to get back home to cool, cool rain.

I can't sleep and I lay and I think,

The night is hot and black as ink.

Oh God, I need a drink of cool, cool rain.

 

Only love,

Can bring the rain,

That makes you yearn to the sky.

Only love,

Can bring the rain,

That falls like tears from on high.

 

Love, Reign o'er me.

Love, Reign o'er me, on me.

Wake up Maggie, I think I got something to say to you

It's late September and I really should be back at school

I know I keep you amused but I feel I'm being used

Oh Maggie, I couldn't have tried any more

You led me away from home just to save you from being alone

You stole my heart and that's what really hurt

 

The morning sun when it's in your face really shows your age

But that don't worry me none in my eyes you're everything

I laughed at all of your jokes my love you didn't need to coax

Oh Maggie, I couldn't have tried any more

You led me away from home, just to save you from being alone

You stole my soul and that's a pain I can do without

 

All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand

But you turned into a lover and

mother what a lover, you wore me out

All you did was wreck my bed

and in the morning kick me in the head

Oh Maggie, I couldn't have tried anymore

You led me away from home 'cause you didn't want to be alone

You stole my heart, I couldn't leave you if I tried

 

I suppose I could collect my books and get on back to school

Or steal my daddy's cue and make a living out of playing pool

Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helpin' hand

Oh Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face

You made a first-class fool out of me

But I'm as blind as a fool can be

You stole my heart but I love you anyway

 

Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face

I'll get on back home one of these days

Well I find myself in reverie

'Bout what we might have had

And what might have been

We had something going once

That was such a long, long time ago

It was way back in '76

Our friendship formed of pure innocence

We first met in Mathew Street

Where we heard something that would set us free

A sign stands over a door, it says

"Four lads who shook the world"

In the depths of those heady nights

We would dream of those bright lights

Oh my friend, Oh my friend, Oh my friend

 

And my friend John, he went away

He made some mistakes

Spent time in Walton jail

And now when I see him we still talk

But there's no light shining in his eyes

And Susie, she was seventeen

And more beauty in this world

I swear you'll never see

I was gonna be king

And she was gonna be queen

But now all she does is hide behind the tears

If there was more sense in this world

And work wasn't so hard to find

You would not be going your way

I would not be going mine

Oh my friend, Oh my friend, Oh my friend

 

Somewhere tonight out on the street

Somewhere beneath this city's heat

In the eyes of strangers who pass me by

Life is cruel and so unkind

Oh, Oh the SPIRIT OF '76

 

And Pete has seen his dreams come true

But that don't make him no hero

He's just one of the lucky few

If a man can't change the world these days

I still believe a man can change his own destiny

But the price is high that has got to be paid

For everyone who survives there are many who fail

I've seen my friends caught out in that crossfire

 

All their dreams and hopes smashed on the funeral pyre

I will never give in until the day I die

Get myself some independence

Carve out a future with my two bare hands

Oh my friend, Oh my friend, Oh my friend

 

Somewhere tonight out on the street

Somewhere beneath this city's heat

In the eyes of strangers who pass me by

Life is cruel and so unkind

Oh, Oh the SPIRIT OF '76

 

 

Mersey lights shine in the distance

Same as they did for us then

Mersey lights shine bright in the distance

Where are you now my friend?

 

You see some nights when I can't sleep

I still think of you

 

And all the promises,all our dreams we shared

I know those lights still call to you

I can hear them now

I can hear them now

 

(Still shining for us)

(Let em shine)

 

(Can you hear them)

(Can you hear them)

 

(Lights are still shining)

 

Somewhere tonight out on the street

Somewhere beneath this city's heat

In the eyes of strangers who pass me by

Life is cruel and so unkind

Oh- Oh

Where's it gone

The SPIRIT OF '76

Fly into the rising sun,

Faces, smiling everyone

Yeah, she is a whole new tradition

I feel it in my heart

 

My woman from Tokyo

She makes me see

My woman from Tokyo

She's so good to me

 

Talk about her like a Queen

Dancing in a Eastern Dream

Yeah, she makes me feel like a river

That carries me away

 

My woman from Tokyo

She makes me see

My woman from Tokyo

She's so good to me

 

But I'm at home and I just don't belong ...

 

So far away from the garden we love

She is what moves in the soul of a dove

Soon I shall see just how black was my night

When we're alone in Her City of light

 

Rising from the neon gloom

Shining like a crazy moon

Yeah, she turns me on like a fire

I get high

 

My woman from Tokyo

She makes me see

My woman from Tokyo

She's so good to me

This is the way

I always dreamed it would be

The way that it is, oh oh

When you are holding me

I never had a love of my own

Maybe that's why when we're all alone

 

I can hear music

I can hear music

The sound of the city baby seems to disappear

I can hear music

Sweet sweet music

Whenever you touch me baby

Whenever you're near

 

Lovin' you

It keeps me satisfied

And I can't explain, oh no

The way I'm feeling inside

You look at me we kiss and then

I close my eyes and here it comes again

 

I can hear music

I can hear music

The sound of the city baby seems to disappear

I can hear music

Sweet sweet music

Whenever you touch me baby

Whenever you're near

 

I hear the music all the time, yeah

I hear the music, hold me tight now baby

I hear the music all the time

I hear the music

I hear the music baby

I told you 'bout living in the U.S. of A.

Don't you know that I'm a gangster of love

Let me tell you people that I found a new way

And I'm tired of all this talk about love

And the same old story with a new set of words

About the good and the bad and the poor

And the times keep on changin'

So I'm keepin' on top

Of every fat cat who walks through my door

 

I'm a space cowboy

Bet you weren't ready for that

I'm a space cowboy

I'm sure you know where it's at

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

 

I was born on this rock

And I've been travelin' through space

Since the moment I first realized

What all you fast talkin' cats would do if you could

You know, I'm ready for the final surprise

There ain't no way around it

Ain't nothing to say

That's gonna satisfy my soul deep inside

All the prayers and surveyors

Keep the whole place uptight

While it keeps on gettin' darker outside

 

I'm a space cowboy

Bet you weren't ready for that

I'm a space cowboy

I'm sure you know where it's at

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

 

I see the show downs, slow downs, lost and found, turn arounds

The boys in the military shirts

I keep my eyes on the prize, on the long fallen skies

And I don't let my friends get hurt

All you back room schemers, small trip dreamers

Better find something new to say

Cause you're the same old story

It's the same old crime

And you got some heavy dues to pay

 

I'm a space cowboy

Bet you weren't ready for that

I'm a space cowboy

I'm sure you know where it's at

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

If I ask you difficult questions

If I make improper suggestions

Would you find that a risk to your health

Would you put me up on the bookself

With the books and the plants?

 

Desperate but not serious

Your kisses drive me delirious

 

If I were kind and adoring

How would that be?

Very boring

Mister Pressman with your penknife

Always asking about my sex life

And who with and how many times?

 

Desperate but not serious

Your kisses drive me delirious

 

All the advice seemed so unkind

"If you don't stop, you will go blind!"

Tell you it's none of their business

Then console you with a big kiss

On the lips and on the back of your neck

 

Desperate but not serious...

Well East coast girls are hip

I really dig those styles they wear

And the Southern girls with the way they talk

They knock me out when I'm down there

 

The Mid-West farmer's daughters really make you feel alright

And the Northern girls with the way they kiss

They keep their boyfriends warm at night

 

I wish they all could be California

I wish they all could be California

I wish they all could be California girls

 

The West coast has the sunshine

And the girls all get so tanned

I dig a french bikini on Hawaii island

Dolls by a palm tree in the sand

 

I've been all around this great big world

And I've seen all kinds of girls

Yeah, but I couldn't wait to get back in the states

Back to the cutest girls in the world

 

I wish they all could be California

I wish they all could be California

I wish they all could be California girls

I'm standing here on the ground

The sky above won't fall down

See no evil in all direction

Resolution of happiness

Things have been dark

For too long

 

Don't change for you

Don't change a thing for me

Don't change for you

Don't change a thing for me

 

I found a love that I had lost

It was gone for too long

Hear no evil in all directions

Execution of bitterness

Message received loud and clear

 

Don't change for you

Don't change a thing for me

Don't change for you

Don't change a thing for me

 

I'm standing here on the ground

The sky above won't fall down

I will believe you

If you say it's true

Girl you know I need you

More than any word spoken

I've seen you before

Turn and walk away

You say you won't come back

It's a game anyway

 

We are hoping, yes and we're praying

 

This time will be the last time

That we will fight like this

This time will be the last time

That we will fight like this...hey!

 

We are always wanting

Things we cannot find

You know that we are always wasting time

 

We are hoping, yes and we're praying

 

This time will be the last time

That we will fight like this

This time will be the last time

That we will fight like this

 

You know I can forget

We have fought before

I've seen inside your heart

And I know it's breaking

 

We are hoping, yeah and we're praying

 

Maybe this time will be the last time

That we will fight like this

This time will be the last time

That we will fight like this

This time will be the last time......

There's a man on the corner

Coming on like Moses

Flogging new religion

like a bunch of plastic roses

He's found his path

To the bleeding heart of jesus

You tell him

You've found yours

 

Heir to a future

You never made

There is nothing less amusing

Then the amusement arcade

In a city without a soul

Newspaper boys selling you the hard truth

Lucifer employs idle hands by night and day

 

Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by, boy

Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by

Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by, boy

Don't let the smoke get in your eyes

 

Well the drunk outside the Wendy's

Is becoming less than friendly

A dog is barking at the moon

The drunk outside the windy

Is becoming less than friendly

A dog is barking at the moon

 

You want to get away

From the city of light

Then when you've gone

You want to get back

It is some strange addiction

When you need to put yourself

Back in your eye

 

Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by, boy

Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by

Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by, boy

Don't let the smoke get in your eye

 

Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by, boy

Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by

Stuck at the dog-end of a day gone by, boy

Don't let the smoke get in your...

 

Stub out the dog-end of a day gone by, boy

When they turn the pages of history

When these days have passed long ago

Will they read of us with sadness

For the seeds that we let grow

We turned our gaze

From the castles in the distance

Eyes cast down

On the path of least resistance

 

Cities full of hatred

Fear and lies

Withered hearts

And cruel, tormented eyes

Scheming demons

Dressed in kingly guise

Beating down the multitude

And scoffing at the wise

 

The hypocrites are slandering

The sacred halls of Truth

Ancient nobles showering

Their bitterness on youth

Can't we find

The minds that made us strong

Can't we learn

To feel what's right and wrong

 

Cities full of hatred

Fear and lies

Withered hearts

And cruel, tormented eyes

Scheming demons

Dressed in kingly guise

Beating down the multitude

And scoffing at the wise

Can't we raise our eyes

And make a start

Can't we find the minds

To lead us closer to the Heart

I. Prelude

When our weary world was young

The struggle of the Ancients first began

The Gods of Love and Reason

Sought alone to rule the fate of Man

 

They battled through the ages

But still neither force would yield

The people were divided

Every soul a battlefield...

 

II. Apollo Bringer of Wisdom

'I bring Truth and Understanding

I bring Wit and Wisdom fair

Precious gifts beyond compare

We can build a world of wonder

I can make you all aware'

 

'I will find you food and shelter

Show you fire to keep you warm

Through the endless winter storm

You can live in grace and comfort

In the world that you transform.'

 

The people were delighted

Coming forth to claim their prize

They ran to build their cities

And converse among the wise

 

But one day the streets fell silent

Yet they knew not what was wrong

The urge to build these fine things

Seemed not to be so strong

 

The wise men were consulted

And the Bridge of Death was crossed

In quest of Dionysus

To find out what they had lost...

 

III. Dionysus Bringer of Love

'I bring Love to give you solace

In the darkness of the night

In the Heart's eternal light

You need only trust your feelings;

Only Love can steer you right'

 

'I bring Laughter, I bring Music

I bring Joy and I bring Tears

I will soothe your primal fears

Throw off those chains of Reason

And your prison disappears'

 

The cities were abandoned

And the forests echoed song

They danced and lived as brothers;

They knew Love could not be wrong

 

Food and wine they had aplenty

And they slept beneath the stars

The people were contented

And the Gods watched from afar

 

But the winter fell upon them

And it caught them unprepared

Bringing wolves and cold starvation

And the hearts of men despaired...

 

IV. Armageddon The Battle of Heart and Mind

The Universe divided

As the Heart and Mind collided

With the people left unguided

For so many troubled years

In a cloud of doubts and fears

Their world was torn asunder

Into hollow hemispheres

 

Some fought themselves, some fought each other

Most just followed one another

Lost and aimless like their brothers

For their Hearts were so unclear

And the Truth could not appear

Their spirits were divided

Into blinded hemispheres

 

Some who did not fight

Brought tales of old to light

My 'Rocinante' sailed by night

On her final flight

To the heart of Cygnus' fearsome force

We set our course

Spiralled through that timeless space

To this immortal place

 

V. Cygnus Bringer of Balance

I have memory and awareness

But I have no shape or form

As a disembodied spirit

I am dead and yet unborn

 

I have passed into Olympus

As was told in tales of old

To the city of Immortals

Marble white and purest gold

 

I see the Gods in battle rage on high

Thunderbolts across the sky

I cannot move, I cannot hide

I feel a silent scream begin inside

 

Then all at once the Chaos ceased

A stillness fell, a sudden peace

The Warriors felt my silent cry

And stayed their struggle, mystified

 

Apollo was atonished

Dionysus thought me mad

But they heard my story further

And they wondered, and were sad

 

Looking down from Olympus

On a world of doubt and fear

Its surface splintered

Into sorry hemispheres

 

They sat a while in silence

Then they turned at last to me

'We will call you Cygnus,

The god of Balance you shall be'

 

VI. The Sphere A Kind of Dream

We can walk our road together

If our goals are all the same

We can run alone and free

If we pursue a different aim

 

Let the truth of love be lighted

Let the love of truth shine clear

Sensibility

Armed with sense and liberty

With the Heart and Mind united

In a single perfect sphere

There are those who think that life

Has nothing left to chance,

A host of holy horrors

To direct our aimless dance

 

A planet of playthings

We dance on the strings

Of powers we cannot perceive

"The stars aren't aligned -

Or the gods are malign"

Blame is better to give than receive.

 

 

You can choose a ready guide

In some celestial voice.

If you choose not to decide

You still have made a choice

You can choose from phantom fears

And kindness that can kill;

I will choose a path that's clear-

I will choose free will

 

 

There are those who think that

They were dealt a losing hand,

The cards were stacked against them-

They weren't born in Lotus-Land

All pre-ordained

A prisoner in chains

A victim of venomous fate

Kicked in the face

You can pray for a place

In heaven's unearthly estate

 

Each of us

A cell of awareness

Imperfect and incomplete

Genetic blends

With uncertain ends

On a fortune hunt

That's far too fleet...

Like a million little doorways

All the choices we made

All the stages we passed through

All the roles we played

 

For so many different directions

Our separate paths might have turned

With every door that we opened

Every bridge that we burned

 

Somehow we find each other

Through all that masquerade

Somehow we found each other

Somehow we have stayed

In a state of grace

 

I DON'T BELIEVE IN DESTINY

OR THE GUIDING HAND OF FATE

I DON'T BELIEVE IN FOREVER

OR LOVE AS A MYSTICAL STATE

I DON'T BELIEVE IN THE STARS OR THE PLANETS

OR ANGELS WATCHING FROM ABOVE

BUT I BELIEVE THERE'S A GHOST OF A CHANCE

WE CAN FIND SOMEONE TO LOVE

AND MAKE IT LAST

 

Like a million little crossroads

Through the backstreets of youth

Each time we turn a new corner

A tiny moment of truth

 

So many different connections

Our separate paths might have made

With every door that we opened

Every game we played

 

Somehow we find each other

Through all that masquerade

Somehow we found each other

Somehow we have stayed

In a state of grace

Driving away to the east, and into the past

History receeds in my rear-view mirror

Carried away on a wave of music down a desert road

Memory humming at the heart of a factory town

 

All my life

I've been workin' them angels overtime

Riding and driving and living

So close to the edge

Workin' them angels - Overtime

 

Riding through the Range of Light to the wounded city

Filling my spirit with the wildest wish to fly

Taking the high road to the wounded city

Memory strumming at the heart of a moving picture

 

All this time

I've been workin' them angels overtime

Riding and driving and flying

Just over the edge

Workin' them angels - Overtime

 

Driving down the razor's edge 'tween the past and the future

Turn up the music and smile

Get carried away on the songs and stories of vanished times

Memory drumming at the heart of an English winter

Memories beating at the heart of an African village

Now it's come to this

It's like we're back in the Dark Ages

From the Middle East to the Middle West

It's a world of superstition

 

Now it's come to this

Wide-eyed armies of the faithful

From the Middle East to the Middle West

Pray, and pass the ammunition

 

So many people think that way

You gotta watch what you say

To them and them, and others too

Who don't seem to see to things the way you do

 

We can only grow the way the wind blows

on a bare and weathered shore

We can only bow to the here and now

In our elemental war

 

We can only go the way the wind blows

We can only bow to the here and now

Or be broken down blow by blow

 

Now it's come to this

Hollow speeches of mass deception

From the Middle East to the Middle West

Like crusaders in a holy alliance

 

Now it's come to this

Like we're back in the dark ages

From the Middle East to the Middle West

It's a plague that resists our science

 

It seems to leave them partly blind

And they leave no child behind

While evil spirits haunt their sleep

While shepherds bless and count their sheep

 

Like the solitary pine

On a bare wind blasted shore

We can only grow the way the wind blows

I'm runnin' here, I'm runnin' there

I'm lookin' for a girl

'Cause there's nothin' I need, there's nothin' I want more

In the whole wide world

 

Well, I need it quick and I need it now

Before I start to fade away

That's why I'm searchin', that's why I'm lookin'

Each and ev'ry day

 

[Chorus:]

Ooh, I need some love

I said I need some love

Ooh yes, I need some love

This feelin' I can't rise above

Ooh, yeah, yeah

 

Well, I been hustlin' here, I been hustlin' there

I been searchin' for about a week

And I started feelin' this strange sensation

My knees are startin' gettin' weak

 

Well, I need what keeps a young man alive

I'm sayin' I need it now

I'm gonna get the message across to you

Some way, some how

We've taken care of everything

The words you hear the songs you sing

The pictures that give pleasure to your eyes.

 

It's one for all and all for one

We work together common sons

Never need to wonder how or why.

 

We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx

Our great computers fill the hallowed halls.

We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx

All the gifts of life are held within our walls.

 

Look around this world we made

Equality our stock in trade

Come and join the Brotherhood of Man

Oh what a nice contented world

Let the banners be unfurled

Hold the Red Star proudly high in hand.

 

We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx

Our great computers fill the hallowed halls.

A modern-day warrior

Mean mean stride,

Today's Tom Sawyer

Mean mean pride.

 

Though his mind is not for rent,

Don't put him down as arrogant.

His reserve, a quiet defense,

Riding out the day's events.

The river

 

What you say about his company

Is what you say about society.

-Catch the mist -Catch the myth

-Catch the mystery -Catch the drift.

 

The world is, the world is,

Love and life are deep,

Maybe as his skies are wide.

 

Today's Tom Sawyer,

He gets high on you,

And the space he invades

He gets by on you.

No, his mind is not for rent

To any god or government.

Always hopeful, yet discontent,

He knows changes aren't permanent,

But change is.

 

What you say about his company

Is what you say about society.

-Catch the witness -Catch the wit,

-Catch the spirit -Catch the spit.

 

The world is, the world is,

Love and life are deep,

Maybe as his eyes are wide.

 

Exit the warrior,

Today's Tom Sawyer,

He gets high on you,

And the energy you trade,

He gets right on to the friction of the day.

My uncle has a country place

That no one knows about.

He says it used to be a farm

Before the Motor Law.

And on Sundays I elude the Eyes,

And hop the Turbine Freight

To far outside the Wire

Where my white-haired uncle waits.

 

Jump to the ground

As the Turbo slows to cross the borderline.

Run like the wind

As excitement shivers up and down my spine.

Down in his barn

My uncle preserved for me an old machine

For fifty-odd years.

To keep it as new has been his dearest dream.

 

I strip away the old debris

That hides a shining car:

A brilliant red Barchetta

From a better vanished time.

We fire up the willing engine

Responding with a roar.

Tires spitting gravel,

I commit my weekly crime.

 

Wind

In my hair

Shifting and drifting

Mechanical music

Adrenaline surge...

 

Well-weathered leather,

Hot metal and oil,

The scented country air.

Sunlight on chrome,

The blur of the landscape,

Every nerve aware.

 

Suddenly ahead of me

Across the mountainside

A gleaming alloy air-car

Shoots towards me, two lanes wide.

I spin around with shrieking tires

To run the deadly race

Go screaming through the valley

As another joins the chase.

 

Drive like the wind

Straining the limits of machine and man.

Laughing out loud with fear and hope

I've got a desperate plan.

At the one-lane bridge

I leave the giants stranded at the riverside.

Race back to the farm

To dream with my uncle at the fireside.

A hot and windy August afternoon

Has the trees in constant motion

With a flash of silver leaves

As they're rocking in the breeze

 

The boy lies in the grass with one blade

Stuck between his teeth

A vague sensation quickens

In his young and restless heart

And a bright and nameless vision

Has him longing to depart

 

You move me -

You move me -

With your buildings and your eyes

Autumn woods and winter skies

You move me -

You move me -

Open sea and city lights

Busy streets and dizzy heights

You call me -

You call me -

 

The fawn-eyed girl with sun-browned legs

Dances on the edge of his dream

And her voice rings in his ears

Like the music of the spheres

 

The boy lies in the grass, unmoving

Staring at the sky

His mother starts to call him

As a hawk goes soaring by

The boy pulls down his baseball cap

And covers up his eyes

 

Too many hands on my time

Too many feelings -

Too many things on my mind

When I leave I don't know

What I'm hoping to find

When I leave I don't know

What I'm leaving behind... ph34r.gif 2.gif
