Leapfrog over fences. Little time, less senses. Here by this railway cutting. Life goes quick and it goes without warning. That's how life is in my bombsite dwelling. But I don't believe you have to be an idiot...

We're talking into corners Finding ways to fill the vacuum And though our mouths are dry We talk in hope to hit on something new Tied to the railway tracks It's one way to revive but no way to relax We're just...

Uncharted wrecks of wonder. In deepest gloom down under. The drowning men are drawing near. We're the subterranean vandals, Tying air lines around door handles. Adventures don't venture here. We're the drowning...

I'm lying in the hospital I'm pinned against the bed A stethoscope upon my heart A hand against my head They're peeling off the bandages I'm wincing in the light The nurse is looking anxious And she's quivering...

Maybe - maybe a fool for trusting. Maybe - maybe a fool for following. The God of wisdom not of love. But I'm riding with the new church. I'm riding with the new church. Relying on the new church, And a new word...

We say don't show your guns, if you don't intend to fight We say don't sleep all day, if you can't keep awake at night Don't screw it up. Don't be a hero. 'Cause we don't need them. Be a panther or a poet. Someone...

Life's short, don't make a mess of it. To the ends of the earth, you'll look for a sense in it. No chances, no plans. I'll smash the windows of my box. I'll be a madman. It's no time to be 21, To be anyone. Hold...

Blank-faced, Was this what our elders taught? Dim the lights and live like story book. I can't focus for the pinball. I'm all shook up and I think I see it all. But I know that it ain't that simple. I got loose...

What's left in the wheelchair? Who bothers what's in there? Who worries what life's like on wheels? No body to speak of. No willpower, voice, love. Who intends to steer us? On wheels. I'm some new kind of...

I wonder what we'll play for you tonight. Something heavy or something light. Something to set your soul alight. I wonder how we'll answer when you say. "We don't like you - go away" "Come back when you've learned...

Quickstep (written 4/77) I knew my youth couldn't last forever I knew some chords so I got the band together Sick of sleeping and beating up my mother Forget these luxuries, I've got myself another buzz Now you...

What are you going to do with your new ways? What are you going to do with your new wave? Maybe it's that you no longer care. Now you're so great. You've just got to stand there. Or were you never even bothered...

The Great British Mistake (written 2/78) The Great British Mistake was looking for a way out, was getting complacent, not noticing the pulse was racing - the mistake was fighting the change, was staying the same. It...
