Third/Sister Lovers
"KIZZA ME"
Dreams and wishes, like shooting stars
Coming up rushes
I want to white out
I want to white out
I want to feel you deep inside
I want to feel you deep inside
I want to feel you, yeah
Kizza me
Lesa, why not
Curse wild, windy linen
Warm life, so and so
I want to white out
I want to come on out
Dreams and wishes, shooting stars
Coming up rushes, ok, ok
I want to white out
I want to white out
That's enough, baby
"THANK YOU FRIENDS"
Thank you, friends
Wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you
I'm so grateful for all the things you helped me do
All the ladies and gentlemen
Who made this all so probable
Thank you, friends
I rejoice to the skies
Dear ones like you do the best I do
As far as can see my eyes
Without my friends I got chaos
I'm off in a bead of light
Without my friends I'd be swept up high by the wind
All the ladies and gentlemen (I said all)
Who made this all so probable
Thank you friends (thank you, again)
Dear, dear friends (thank you, again)
And again, and again
Never too late to start
"BIG BLACK CAR"
Driving in my big black car
Nothing can go wrong
I'm going and I don't know how far
So, so long
Maybe I'll sleep in a Holiday Inn
Nothing can hurt me
Nothing can touch me
Why should I care
Driving's a gas
It ain't gonna last
Sunny day, highway
If it rains it's all the same
I can't feel a thing
I can't feel a thing
I've got a big black car
The lights above, oh yes
I see the stars above
"JESUS CHRIST"
Angels from the realms of glory
Stars shone bright above
Royal David's city
Was bathed in the light of love
Jesus Christ was born today
Jesus Christ was born
Lo, they did rejoice
Fine and pure of voice
And the wrong shall fail
And the right prevail
And we're gonna get born now
"FEMME FATALE"
Here she comes
You better watch your step
She's gonna break your heart in two
It's true
It's not hard to realize
Just look into her false colored eyes
She'll build you up to just put you down
What a clown
'Cause everybody knows
The things she does to please
She's just a little tease
See the way she walks
Hear the way she talks
You're written in her book
You're number 37, have a look
She's going to smile to make you frown
What a clown
Little boy, she's from the street
Before you start, you're already beat
She's going to play you for a fool
Yes it true
"O, DANA"
I rather shoot a woman than a man,
I worry whether this is my last life
And girl, if you're listening
I'm sorry, I can't help it
O, Dana
O, Dana
Come on
I'm forevermore fighting with Steven
We do our goo-goo-koos
But we know, overboard and down
And strung out twice
We seldom know what things are
Two illusions going very far
I got busted across the bridge
They rounded up every soul
Now never the East Side
She says, "Don't give a girl a chance"
She's not afraid to take a chance
She's got a magic wand
That says play with yourself before other ones
"HOLOCAUST"
Your eyes are almost dead, can't get out of bed
And you can't sleep
You're sitting down to dress, and you're a mess
You look in the mirror
You look in your eyes
Say you realize
Everybody goes, leaving those
Who fall behind
Everybody goes, as far as they can
They don't just care
They stood on the stairs
Laughing at your errs
Your mother's dead, she said
Don't be afraid
Your mother's dead, you're on your own
She's in her bed
Everybody goes, leaving those
Who fall behind
Everybody goes, as far as they can
They don't just care
You're a wasted face, you're a sad-eyed lie
You're a holocaust
"KANGA ROO"
I first saw you, you had on blue jeans
Your eyes couldn't hide anything
I saw you breathing, oh
I saw you staring out in space
I next saw you, you was at the party
Thought you was a queen, oh, so flirty
I came against
Didn't say excuse, knew what I was doing
We looked very fine, as we were leaving
Like Saint Joan, doing a cool jerk
Oh, I want you, like a kanga roo
"STROKE IT NOEL"
Child will you come on down
Come on in with me
Morning says to idle on
Stay clear of the street
On the wing
And on the land
Can you sing
With anything
Do you wanna dance
Do ya, do ya, do ya, do ya wanna dance
Stroke it Noel
They say we're lazy men
Drinkin' our white wine
We could go right insane
'Cause we can buy the time
Oh, keep an eye
On the sky
Will they come
Oh the bombs
But, do you wanna dance
Easy now, easy now
Do ya, do ya, do ya, do ya wanna dance
Do ya wanna, do ya, ya wanna dance
"FOR YOU"
Sometimes I can't help but worship you
I love you and all the things that you do
I thought I'd sit and write this song just for you
To let you know that I am thinking of you
When I come home so cold at night
You'll have the fireplace burning bright
Thoughts of how it's going to be
And how I'll spend those cold, cold nights
Warmed by you
And in these autumn days I wander through the leaves
Thinking of those winter nights I'll spend with you
"YOU CAN'T HAVE ME"
Espionage, the words to come back to me
Sidewinder, you clepto
You just steal things
Unawares, but I don't care
You can't have me
You can't have me
You can't have me
You can't have me, not for free
Gymnast, working out on the parallel rails
Cuttin' trails, screams and wails
Face go pale, never fails
You do steal things
Unawares, but I don't care
The drummer said you were not very clean
The drummer said you were not very clean
And I know what he means
And I know what he means
"NIGHTIME"
At nightime, I go out and see the people
Air goes cool and hurrying on my way
And dressing so sweet, all the people to see
They're looking at me, all the people to see
And when I set my eyes on you
You look like a kitty
And when you're in the mood
Oh, you look so pretty
Caught a glance in your eyes
And fell through the skies
Glance in your eyes
And fell through the skies
I'm walking down the freezing street
Scarf goes out behind
You said, "Get them away"
Please don't say a word
Get me out of here
Get me out of here
I hate it here
Get me out of here
"BLUE MOON"
Let me be your one light
And if you'd like a true heart
Take the time to show you're mine
And I'll be a blue moon in the dark
While you sleep, you'll see me there
Clouds race across the sky
Close your eyes and don't ask why
And I'll be a blue moon in your eyes
Morning comes and sleeping's done
Birds sing outside
If demons come while you're under
I'll be a blue moon in the sky
"TAKE CARE"
Take care not to hurt yourself
Beware of the need for help
You might need too much
And people are such
Take care
Please, take care
Some people read idea books
And some people have pretty looks
But if your eyes are wide
And all words aside
This sounds a bit like goodbye
In a way it is, I guess
As I leave your side
I've taken the air
"NATURE BOY"
There was a boy
A very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far
Very far over land and sea
A little child
Inside of us
But very wise was he
And then one day
A magic day he passed my way
And as we talked of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me
"The greatest thing
You'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return"
"TILL THE END OF THE DAY"
Baby I feel good
From the moment I arise
Feel good from morning
Till the end of the day
You and me, we live a life
From when we get up
Till we go through the night
You and me, we're free, yeah
We do as we please, yeah
From morning till the end of the day
Till the end of the day
Yeah, I get up, I see the sun
And I feel good, yeah
'Cause my life has begun
"DREAM LOVER"
You're a dream lover
And I'm never gonna let you go
And there's no other
Could look as good as you right now
And you shine like ice
And glare your eyes
Won't those daydreams come true
On Beale Street Green
My wishes visualized
You're real, so real
Seen tricked me and you
And I wake up and shiver
A lonely quiver
And I don't know where to look
Dream lover
Dream, you're a dream lover
Play it for me guitarist
"DOWNS"
Take downs
Things sinkin' with a melody
Someone's gonna ask if you graduated
But as for you
Throw down
Isolated as far as you go
I'm well versed in the walls of worst
In the windows of most
Wind down
A.C.
Coast to coast
High cool 'cept when I lie with you
Naked on a southern love
Oh cool downs
Cool downs
Wise and prosperous
That I am
Flustered and erratic
'Cept when I lie with you
Naked on a southern love
Give downs
Rub downs
Lie downs
Any downs at all
Any downs at all
"WHOLE LOTTA SHAKIN' GOIN' ON
Come on over baby
Whole lotta shakin' goin' on
Come on over baby
Whole lotta shakin' goin' on
Come on baby, I ain't fakin'
Lot of shakin' goin' on

Shake, baby, shake

Shake, don't let it break
Come on over
Whole lotta shakin' goin' on
