Strip And Go Naked Instrumental The Big Dance I've seen so many places, and always left my mark I've kissed so many faces, lips smooth, just like a shark I have no friends, I hope that's understood I take what I can take, when the taking's good It's not for love, but I'll gladly take your money I can pretend to be so sad or funny You'll just love the way I move when I dance My young hips, they know how to entrance Nevermind him, he's not here now It's really not my problem, anyhow An angel of love to you is what I'll appear Your lonely ache, I can make, disappear Yes, take me deep inside so I can heal your pain No angel of love takes another man's gain You want to keep me held inside your cage You best remember, you're twice my age You think I'll want you with me for evermore It's only been two weeks, and you're such a bore I can see you're new to this, you don't know the rules You're just another one in the long line of fools Can you be happy for my moment in your life It doesn't bother you you're someone else's wife An angel of love is what I may appear What I really am is really not so clear I don't live for love, you sticky bitch All I care about is if you're rich You decide if you still want to play this game The price to you for this is nothing will ever be the same Victor Victor was a little baby into this world he came His father took him on his knee and said 'Don't dishonor the family name.' Victor looked up at his father-looked up with big brown eyes: His father said; 'Victor my only son, don't you ever tell lies.' It was a frosty December, it wasn't the season for fruits His father fell dead of heart disease while lacing up his boots It was a frosty December when into his grave he sank; His uncle found Victor a post as cashier at the Midland Counties Bank. It was a frosty December Victor was only eighteen But his figures were straight and his margins straight and his cuffs were always clean He took a room at the Peveril, a respectable boarding-house; And Time watched Victor day after day as a cat will watch a mouse Victor went up to his bedroom, set the alarm bell Climbed into bed, took his Bible and read of what happened to Jezebel. It was the first of April, Anna to the Peveril came Her eyes, her lips, her breasts, her hips and her smile set men aflame It was the second of April she was wearing a coat of fur; Victor met her upon the stairs and he fell in love with her The first time he made his proposal, she laughed, said 'I'll never wed' The second time there was a pause, then she smiled and shook her head Anna looked into the mirror, pouted and gave a frown Said; 'Victor's as dull as a wet afternoon but I've got to settle down.' The third time he made his proposal, as they walked by the Reservoir She gave him a kiss like a blow to the head and said, 'You are my heart's desire.' They were married early in August, she said; 'Kiss me, you funny boy.' Victor took her in his arms and said: 'Oh my Helen of Troy.' The clerks were talking of Anna, the door was just ajar: One said, 'Poor old Victor, but where ignorance is bliss, etcetera.' Victor looked up at the sunset as he stood there all alone; Cried: 'Are you in Heaven, Father?', but the sky said 'Address not known.' Victor looked up at the mountains, the mountains all covered with snow: Cried: 'Are you pleased with me Father?' and the answer came back, No Victor came to the forest, cried; 'Father, will she ever be true?' And the oaks and the beeches shook their heads and they answered: 'Not to you.' Victor came to the meadow where the wind went sweeping by: Cried: 'O Father, I love her so.' But the wind said: 'She must die.' Victor cam to the river running so deep and so still: Crying 'O Father, what shall I do?' and the river answered: 'Kill.' Anna was sitting at table, drawing cards from a pack: Anna was sitting at table waiting for her husband to come back. Victor stood in the doorway, he didn't utter a word She said: 'What's the matter, honey?' he behaved like he hadn't heard There was a voice in his left ear, there was a voice in his right There was a voice at the base of this skull saying: 'She must die tonight.' Victor picked up a carving-knife, his features were set and drawn Said 'Anna, it would have been better for you if you had not been born.' Anna jumped up from the table, Anna started to scream But Victor came slowly after her like a horror in a dream She dodged behind the sofa, she tore down a curtain rod But Victor came slowly after her, said 'Prepare to meet thy God.' He stood there above the body, he stood there holding the knife And the blood ran down the stairs and sang: 'I am the Resurrection and the Life.' They tapped Victor on the shoulder, they took him away in a van: He sat as quite as a lump of moss saying: 'I am the Son of Man.' Victor sat in the corner Making a woman of clay Saying: 'I am Alpha and Omega, I shall come to judge the earth one day.' I Am The Spirit I am the star-filled sky in winter I am the starry-eyed who stares I am the cold, grey rock of mountains I am the one whole climbs those stairs I am-the sea, so calm yet fearsome I am-the one to seize the chance I am-the air so pure yet foul I am-the one who takes a stance All you have is what there is All there is, is what you make All you make is all there is All for your own sake I am the building, tall and handsome I am the builder, the one who cares I am the painting on the canvas I am the painter, the one who shares I am-the trees, so strong and silent I am-the earth, all life to give I am-the sun, both lover and killer I am-the child, through you, I live I have a need for building on tomorrow I have a need to begin today I have no time for living some past sorrow I just want to get on my way I need to have strength in my conviction I need to have the final say I need to make sense in my selection I just want to get on my way You only have you I only have me You lonely with you Me lonely with me You can give it to me I can take it from you You'll always have it from me We'll be always I am the wind, both warm and freezing I am the truth, not always fair I am the clouds, static yet fleeting I am the heart, a burden to bear I am-the main for all the seasons I am-the boy who never fears I am-the woman who knows all the reasons I am-the girl who sheds the tears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
