Don’t run back inside, darling you know just what I’m here for
So you’re scared and you’re thinking that maybe we ain’t that young anymore
Show a little faith, there’s magic in the night
You ain’t a beauty, but hey you’re alright
Oh and that’s alright with me
I’ve been looking so long at these pictures of you
That I almost believe that they’re real
I’ve been living so long with my pictures of you
That I almost believe that the pictures are all I can feel
Anyone who’s ever had a heart
Wouldn’t turn around and break it
I can take about an hour on the tower of power
Just so long as it get a little golden shower.
Now the drugs don’t work
They just make you worse but I know I’ll see your face again
Peter! You cannot buy your peace
You’ll never stop the gossips’ talk
With all the fish from out the sea.
We were mistaken to have dreamed…
Peter! We’ve failed. We’ve failed.
Edit: for lyrics, read libretto.
We think that we’re the ones, we’re the bright unconquered suns
Wait a while, we’ll watch the light grow stale
And we smell so very clean, but we’re the oil in this machine
And this machine, this machine is going wrong
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
One that I know Chelseadave would have posted, he had the song played at his funeral.

Well, I woke up Sunday morning
With no way to hold my head that didn’t hurt
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn’t bad
So I had one more for dessert
Shall I change the title to “post every random brain fart that pops into your head”?
Don’t know that one and google doesn’t recognise it either.
“I’m too sexy for my shirt
Too sexy for my shirt
So sexy it hurts”
Fuck you Shakespeare
This line pops into my head every time I go to a funeral…
A dreaded sunny day, so I met you at the cemetery gates…
I attempted to sing it at a recent funeral to lighten the mood. It wasn’t well received.
For every Wednesday!
Wednesday got cancelled.
Sacrilege!
A long time ago came a man on a track
Walking thirty miles with a sack on his back
And he put down his load where he thought it was the best
He made a home in the wilderness.
Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost
And what you had
And what you lost
Goole is definitely a wilderness.

Playing TB sheets on a heavy repeat
And a medicine keeps me warm
