31Learning To Fly Into the distance, a ribbon of black Stretched to the point of no turning back A flight of fancy on a windswept field Standing alone my senses reeled A fatal attraction is holding me fast How can I escape this irresistible grasp? Can't keep my eyes from the circling sky Tongue-tied and twisted, just an earth-bound misfit, I Ice is forming on the tips of my wings Unheeded warnings, I thought, I thought of everything No navigator to find my way home Unladened empty and turned to stone A soul in tension that's learning to fly Condition grounded but determined to try Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I [Spoken:] Throttle friction lock - set Mixtures - rich Propellers - fully forward Flaps - set - ten degrees Engine gauges and suction - check Radios - set Transponder - set, recheck Flight instruments...

Just be ready, it's gonna roll this time Just feel the power gradually, and it... Above the planet on a wing and a prayer My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air Across the clouds I see my shadow fly Out of the corner of my watering eye A dream unthreatened by the morning light Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night There's no sensation to compare with this Suspended animation, a state of bliss Can't keep my mind from the circling skies Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I 1.0
42The Dogs Of War Dogs of war and men of hate With no cause, we don't discriminate Discovery is to be disowned Our currency is flesh and bone Hell opened up and put on sale Gather 'round and haggle For hard cash, we will lie and deceive Even our masters don't know The webs we weave One world, it's a battleground One world, and we will smash it down One world ... One world Invisible transfers and long distance calls Hollow laughter in marble halls Steps have been taken, a silent uproar Has unleashed the dogs of war You can't stop what has begun Signed, sealed, they deliver oblivion We all have a dark side, to say the least And dealing in death is the nature of the beast One world, it's a battleground One world, and we will smash it down One world ... One world The dogs of war won't negotiate The dogs of war don't capitulate They will take and you will give And you must die so that they may live You can knock at any door But wherever you go You know they've been there before Well winners can lose and things can get strained But whatever you change, you know the dogs remain One world, it's a battleground One world, and we will smash it down One world ... One world 2.0
53One Slip A restless eye across a weary room A glazed look and I was on the road to ruin The music played and played as we whirled without end No hint, no word her honour to defend I will, I will she sighed to my request And then she tossed her mane while my resolve was put to the test Then drowned in desire, our souls on fire I lead the way to the funeral pyre And without a thought of the consequence I gave in to my decadence One slip, and down the hole we fall It seems to take no time at all A momentary lapse of reason That binds a life for life A small regret, you won't forget There'll be no sleep in here tonight Was it love, or was it the idea of being in love? Or was it the hand of fate, that seemed to fit just like a glove? The moment slipped by and soon the seeds were sown The year grew late and neither one wanted to remain alone One slip, and down the hole we fall It seems to take no time at all A momentary lapse of reason That binds a life to a life The one regret, you will never forget There'll be no sleep in here tonight One slip... one slip... 3.0
64On The Turning Away On the turning away From the pale and downtrodden And the words they say Which we won't understand "Don't accept that what's happening Is just a case of others' suffering Or you'll find that you're joining in The turning away" It's a sin that somehow Light is changing to shadow And casting its shroud Over all we have known Unaware how the ranks have grown Driven on by a heart of stone We could find that we're all alone In the dream of the proud On the wings of the night As the daytime is stirring Where the speechless unite In a silent accord Using words you will find are strange Mesmerized as they light the flame Feel the new wind of change On the wings of the night No more turning away From the weak and the weary No more turning away From the coldness inside Just a world that we all must share It's not enough just to stand and stare Is it only a dream that there'll be No more turning away? 4.0
75Yet Another Movie One sound, one single sound One kiss, one single kiss A face outside the window pane However did it come to this? A man who ran, a child who cried A girl who heard a voice that lied The sun that burned a fiery red The vision of an empty bed The use of force, he was so tough She'll soon submit, she's had enough The march of fate, the broken will Someone is lying very still He has laughed and he has cried He has fought and he has died He's just the same as all the rest He's not the worst, he's not the best And still this ceaseless murmuring The babbling that I brook The seas of faces, eyes upraised The empty screen, the vacant look A man in black on a snow white horse A pointless life has run its course The red rimmed eyes, the tears still run As he fades into the setting sun 5.0
86A New Machine (Part 1) I have always been here I have always looked out from behind these eyes It feels like more than a lifetime Feels like more than a lifetime Sometimes I get tired of the waiting Sometimes I get tired of being in here Is this the way it's always been? Could it ever have been different? Do you ever get tired of the waiting? Do you ever get tired of being in there? Don't worry, nobody lives forever Nobody lives forever 6.0

108Sorrow The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking He's haunted by the memory of a lost paradise In his youth or a dream, he can't be precise He's chained forever to a world that's departed It's not enough, it's not enough His blood has frozen and curdled with fright His knees have trembled and given way in the night His hand has weakened at the moment of truth His step has faltered One world, one soul Time pass, the river rolls And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication And silent replies that swirl invitation Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea A grim intimation of what is to be There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night And there's dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight And silence that speaks so much louder than words Of promises broken 8.0
119Let There Be More Light Far, far, far, far away, way People heard him say, say I will find a way, way There will come a day, day Something will be done Then at last the mighty ship Descending on a point of flame Made contact with the human race at Mildenhall Now, now, now is the time, time Time to be, be, be aware Carter's father saw it there and Knew the road revealed to him The living soul of Hereward the Wake Oh, my, something in my eye, eye Something in the sky, sky Waiting there for me The outer lock rolled slowly back The service men were heard to sigh For there revealed in glowing robes was Lucy in the sky Oh, oh, did you ever know, know Never ever will they I can't say Summoning his cosmic powers And glowing slightly from his toes His psychic emanations flowed 0.0
1210Remember A Day Remember a day before today A day when you were young Free to play along with time Evening never comes Sing a song that can't be sung Without the morning's kiss Queen you shall be if you wish Look for your king Why can't we play today? Why can't we stay that way? Climb your favorite apple tree Try to catch the sun Hide from your little brother's gun Dream yourself away Why can't we reach the sun? Why can't we blow the years away? Blow away Blow away Remember Remember 1.0
1311Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun Little by little the night turns around Counting the leaves which tremble at dawn Lotuses lean on each other in yearning Under the eaves the swallow is resting Set the controls for the heart of the sun Over the mountain watching the watcher Breaking the darkness, waking the grapevine One inch of love is one inch of shadow Love is the shadow that ripens the wine Set the controls for the heart of the sun The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun Witness the man who raves at the wall Making the shape of his question to Heaven Whether the sun will fall in the evening Will he remember the lesson of giving? Set the controls for the heart of the sun The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun 2.0
1412Corporal Clegg Corporal Clegg had a wooden leg He won it in the war, in 1944 Corporal Clegg had a medal too In orange, red and blue He found it in the zoo Dear oh dear, oh were they really sad for me? Dear oh dear, oh will they really laugh at me? Missus Clegg, you must be proud of him Missus Clegg, another drop of gin?

1513See-Saw Marigolds are very much in love But he doesn't mind Picking up his sister, he makes his way into the see-saw land All the way She smiles She goes up while he goes down, down Sits on a stick in the river Laughter in his sleep Sister's throwing stones, hoping for a hit He doesn't know so then She goes up while he goes down, down Another time (Ah-ah) Another day (Ah-ah) A brother's way to leave (Ah-ah) Another time (Ah-ah) Another day (Ah-ah) She'll be selling plastic flowers On a Sunday afternoon Picking up weeds, she hasn't got the time to care All can see He's not there She grows up for another man, and he's down Another time (Ah-ah) Another day (Ah-ah) A brother's way to leave (Ah-ah) Another time (Ah-ah) Another day Another time (Ah-ah) Another day (Ah-ah) A brother's way to leave (Ah-ah) (Ah-ah, ah-ah) 4.0
1614Jugband Blues It's awfully considerate of you to think of me here And I'm most obliged to you for making it clear That I'm not here And I never knew the moon could be so big And I never knew the moon could be so blue And I'm grateful that you threw away my old shoes And brought me here instead dressed in red And I'm wondering who could be writing this song I don't care if the sun don't shine And I don't care if nothing is mine And I don't care if I'm nervous with you I'll do my loving in the winter And the sea isn't green And I love the Queen And what exactly is a dream? And what exactly is a joke? 5.0
1715Pigs On The Wing (Part One) If you didn't care what happened to me, And I didn't care for you We would zig zag our way through the boredom and pain Occasionally glancing up through the rain Wondering which of the buggers to blame And watching for pigs on the wing. 0.0
1816Dogs You got to be crazy, gotta have a real need Gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street You got to be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight You got to strike when the moment is right without thinking. And after a while, you can work on points for style Like the club tie, and the firm handshake A certain look in the eye, and an easy smile You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to So that when they turn their backs on you You'll get the chance to put the knife in. You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder You know it's going to get harder, and harder, and harder as you get older Yeah, and in the end you'll pack up, fly down south Hide your head in the sand Just another sad old man All alone and dying of cancer. And when you lose control, you'll reap the harvest you have sown And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone And it's too late to lose the weight you used to need to throw around So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone Dragged down by the stone. I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this maze? Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending That everyone's expendable and no-one has a real friend And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner And everything's done under the sun And you believe at heart, everyone's a killer. Who was born in a house full of pain Who was trained not to spit in the fan Who was told what to do by the man Who was broken by trained personnel Who was fitted with collar and chain Who was given a pat on the back Who was breaking away from the pack Who was only a stranger at home Who was ground down in the end Who was found dead on the phone Who was dragged down by the stone. 1.0
1917Pigs (Three Different Ones) Big man, pig man Ha ha, charade you are You well heeled big wheel Ha ha, charade you are And when your hand is on your heart You're nearly a good laugh Almost a joker With your head down in the pig bin Saying "keep on digging" Pig stain on your fat chin What do you hope to find? When you're down in the pig mine You're nearly a laugh You're nearly a laugh But you're really a cry Bus stop rat bag Ha ha, charade you are You fucked up old hag Ha ha, charade you are You radiate cold shafts of broken glass You're nearly a good laugh Almost worth a quick grin You like the feel of steel You're hot stuff with a hat pin And good fun with a hand gun You're nearly a laugh You're nearly a laugh But you're really a cry Hey you Whitehouse Ha ha, charade you are You house proud town mouse Ha ha, charade you are You're trying to keep our feelings off the street You're nearly a real treat All tight lips and cold feet And do you feel abused? You gotta stem the evil tide And keep it all on the inside Mary you're nearly a treat Mary you're nearly a treat But you're really a cry 2.0
2018Sheep Harmlessly passing your time in the grassland away Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air You better watch out There may be dogs about I've looked over Jordan and I have seen Things are not what they seem What do you get for pretending the danger's not real Meek and obedient you follow the leader Down well trodden corridors into the valley of steel What a surprise A look of terminal shock in your eyes Now things are really what they seem No, this is no bad dream The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want He makes me down to lie Through pastures green he leadeth me the silent waters by With bright knives he releaseth my soul He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places He converteth me to lamb cutlets For lo, he hath great power and great hunger When cometh the day we lowly ones Through quiet reflection and great dedication Master the art of karate Lo, we shall rise up And then we'll make the bugger's eyes water Bleating and babbling we fell on his neck with a scream Wave upon wave of demented avengers March cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream Have you heard the news? The dogs are dead! You better stay home And do as you're told Get out of the road if you want to grow old 3.0
2119Pigs On The Wing (Part Two) You know that I care what happens to you And I know that you care for me too So I don't feel alone Or the weight of the stone Now that I've found somewhere safe To bury my bone And any fool knows a dog needs a home A shelter from pigs on the wing 4.0
2220If If I were a swan, I'd be gone If I were a train, I'd be late And if I were a good man I'd talk with you more often than I do If I were asleep, I could dream If I were afraid, I could hide If I go insane Please don't put your wires in my brain If I were the moon, I'd be cool If I were a rule, I would bend If I were a good man I'd understand the spaces between friends If I were alone, I would cry And if I were with you, I'd be home and dry And if I go insane Will you still let me join in with the game? If I were a swan, I'd be gone If I were a train, I'd be late again If I were a good man I'd talk with you more often than I do 0.0
2321Summer '68 Do, do-do Do, do-do Do, do-do-do Do-do-do-do Would you like to say something before you leave? Perhaps you'd care to state exactly how you feel We say goodbye before we've said hello I hardly even like you, I shouldn't care at all We met just six hours ago, the music was too loud From your bed I gained a day and lost a bloody year And I would like to know How do you feel? (How do you feel?) How do you feel? (How do you feel?) Not a single word was said, the night still hid our fears Occasionally you showed a smile, but what was the need I felt the cold far too soon in a room of 95 My friends are lying in the sun, I wish that I was there Tomorrow brings another town, another girl like you Have you time before you leave to greet another man? Just you let me know How do you feel? How do you feel? How do you feel? How do you feel? Goodbye to you, Charlotte Pringle's due I've had enough for one day 1.0
2422Fat Old Sun When that fat old sun in the sky is falling, Summer evening birds are calling. Summer Sunday and a year, The sound of music in my ears. Distant bells, New-mown grass smells so sweet. By the river holding hands, Roll me up and lay me down. And if you see, Don't make a sound. Pick your feet up off the ground. And if you hear as the warm night falls The silver sound from a tongue so strange, Sing to me, sing to me. When that fat old sun in the sky is falling, Summer evening birds are calling. Children's laughter in my ears, The last sunlight disappears. And if you see, Don't make a sound. Pick your feet up off the ground. And if you hear as the warm night falls The silver sound from a tongue so strange, Sing to me, sing to me. When that fat old sun in the sky is falling, Summer evening birds are calling. Children's laughter in my ears, The last sunlight disappears. 2.0

2725A Pillow Of Winds A cloud of eiderdown Draws around me softening the sound Sleepy time when I lie With my love by my side And she's breathing low And the candle dies When night comes down you lock the door The boot falls to the floor As darkness falls the waves roll by The seasons change The wind is warm Now wakes the owl, now sleeps the swan Behold a dream, the dream is gone Green fields A cold rain is falling In a golden dawn And deep beneath the ground The early morning sounds and I go down Sleeping time when I lie With my love by my side And she's breathing low And I rise like a bird In the haze and the first rays touch the sky And the night winds die 1.0
2826Fearless You say the hill's too steep to climb Chiding You say you'd like to see me try Climbing You pick the place and I'll choose the time And I will climb that hill in my own way Just wait a while for the right day And as I rise above the tree line and the clouds I look down, hearing the sound of the things you've said today Fearlessly the idiot faced the crowd Smiling Merciless the magistrate turns 'round Frowning And who's the fool who wears the crown? And go down in your own way And every day is the right day And as you rise above the fear-lines in his brow You look down, hearing the sound of the faces in the crowd Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart And you'll never walk alone You'll never walk alone Liverpool!

2927San Tropez As I reach for a peach Slide a line down behind A sofa in San Tropez Breaking a stick with a brick on the sand Riding a wave in the wake of an old Sedan Sleeping alone in the drone of the darkness Scratched by the sand that fell from my love Deep in my dreams and I still hear her calling If you're alone, I'll come home Backward and home-bound The pigeon the dove Gone with the wind and the rain on an airplane Born in a home with no silver spoon I'm drinking champagne like a good tycoon Sooner than wait for a break in the weather I'll gather my far-flung thoughts together Speeding away on a wind to a new day If you're alone, I'll come home And I pause for a while By a country stile And listen to things they say Digging for gold in a hole in my hand Open the book, take a look at the way things stand And you're leading me down to the place by the sea I hear your soft voice calling to me Making a date for later by phone And if you're alone I'll come home 3.0

3129Echoes Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air And deep beneath the rolling waves in labyrinths of coral caves The echo of a distant time comes willowing across the sand And everything is green and submarine And no one showed us to the land And no one knows the where's or why's But something stirs and something tries And starts to climb towards the light Strangers passing in the street By chance two separate glances meet And I am you and what I see is me And do I take you by the hand And lead you through the land And help me understand the best I can? And no one calls us to move on And no one forces down our eyes No one speaks and no one tries No one flies around the sun Cloudless every day you fall Upon my waking eyes Inviting and inciting me to rise And through the window in the wall Come streaming in on sunlight wings A million bright ambassadors of morning And no one sings me lullabies And no one makes me close my eyes So I throw the windows wide And call to you across the sky 5.0
3230Cirrus Minor In a churchyard by a river Lazing in the haze of midday Laughing in the grasses And the graves Yellow bird, you are not lone In singing and in flying on In laughing and in leaving Willow weeping in the water Waving to the river daughters Swaying in the ripples and the reeds On a trip to Cirrus Minor Saw a crater in the Sun A thousand miles of moonlight later 0.0
3331The Nile Song I was standing by the Nile When I saw the lady smile I would take her out for a while For a while Like tears wept like a child How her golden hair was blowing wild Then she spread her wings to fly For to fly Soaring high above the breezes Going always where she pleases She will make it to the islands In the sun I will follow in her shadow As I watch her from my window One day I will catch her eye She is calling from the deep Summoning my soul to endless sleep She is bound to drag me down Drag me down 1.0

3533Green Is The Colour Heavy hung the canopy of blue Shade my eyes and I can see you White is the light that shines through the dress that you wore She lay in the shadow of the wave Hazy were the visions of her playing Sunlight on her eyes but moonshine made her blind every time Green is the colour of her kind Quickness of the eye deceives the mind Envy is the bond between the hopeful and the damned 3.0
3634Cymbaline The path you tread is narrow, and the drop is sheer and very high The ravens all are watching from a vantage point nearby Apprehension creeping like a tube-train up your spine Will the tightrope reach the end? Will the final couplet rhyme? And it's high time, Cymbaline It's high time, Cymbaline Please, wake me A butterfly with broken wings is falling by your side The ravens all are closing in, there's nowhere you can hide Your manager and agent are both busy on the phone Selling coloured photographs to magazines back home And it's high time, Cymbaline It's high time, Cymbaline Please, wake me The lines converging where you stand They must have moved the picture plane The leaves are heavy around your feet You hear the thunder of the train And suddenly it strikes you that they're moving into range And Doctor Strange is always changing size And it's high time!

3937Burning Bridges Bridges burning gladly merging with the shadow Flickering between the lines Stolen moments floating softly on the air Born on wings of fire and climbing higher Ancient bonds are breaking Moving on and changing sides Dreaming of a new day Cast aside the other way Magic vision stirring Kindled by and burning Flames rise in her eyes The door that stands ajar The walls that once were high Beyond the gilded cage Beyond the reach of ties The moment is at hand She breaks the golden band 0.0

4240Childhood's End You shout in your sleep Perhaps the price is just too steep Is your conscience at rest If once put to the test? You awake with a start To just the beating of your heart Just one man beneath the sky Just two ears, just two eyes You set sail across the sea Of long past thoughts and memories Childhood's end, your fantasies Merge with harsh realities And then as the sail is hoist You find your eyes are growing moist And all the fears never voiced Say you have to make your final choice Who are you and who am I To say we know the reason why? Some are born; some men die Beneath one infinite sky There'll be war, there'll be peace But everything one day will cease All the iron turned to rust All the proud men turned to dust And so all things, time will mend So this song will end 3.0
4341Free Four One, two, free, four! The memories of a man in his old age Are the deeds of a man in his prime You shuffle in gloom of the sickroom And talk to yourself as you die Life is a short, warm moment And death is a long, cold rest You get your chance to try in the twinkling of an eye Eighty years, with luck, or even less So all aboard for the American tour And maybe you'll make it to the top And mind how you go, and I can tell you, 'cause I know You may find it hard to get off You are the angel of death And I am the dead man's son And he was buried like a mole in a fox hole And everyone is still on the run And who is the master of fox hounds? And who says the hunt has begun? And who calls the tune in the courtroom? And who beats the funeral drum?

4846Time Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day Fritter and waste the hours in an off-hand way Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town Waiting for someone or something to show you the way Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today And then one day you find ten years have got behind you No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking Racing around to come up behind you again The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older Shorter of breath and one day closer to death Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say Home, home again I like to be here when I can And when I come home cold and tired It's good to warm my bones beside the fire Far away, across the field The tolling of the iron bell Calls the faithful to their knees To hear the softly spoken magic spell 3.0

Is it true you beat your fists on the floor?

6361High Hopes Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young In a world of magnets and miracles Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary The ringing of the division bell had begun Along the Long Road and on down the Causeway Do they still meet there by the Cut There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps Running before time took our dreams away Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground To a life consumed by slow decay The grass was greener The light was brighter With friends surrounded The nights of wonder Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again Dragged by the force of some inner tide At a higher altitude with flag unfurled We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world Encumbered forever by desire and ambition There's a hunger still unsatisfied Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon Though down this road we've been so many times The grass was greener The light was brighter The taste was sweeter The nights of wonder With friends surrounded The dawn mist glowing The water flowing The endless river Forever and ever 8.0

And if I show you my dark side Will you still hold me tonight? And if I open my heart to you And show you my weak side What would you do? Would you sell your story to Rolling Stone?
