1.LyricsFeast In My Honour

Rain on windmills, carboard shoes
and medicine to drug my moods
the many splendored trails from here prepare
a feast in my honour
better than the blame I built
but softer than my camouflage
the paint I pour dissolves into the air
in all kinds of colors

I was eating off the floor
every little applecore
still it wasn't quite enough
wine and juices for my love
when push comes to shove

Rain on windmills, bits of bricks
a deck of cards and magic tricks
my face and feeling I cannot deny
but why should I bother
newborn babies, hymns and weeds
my joints and limbs that can't compete 
with wind and weather weeks that pass me by

I was eating off the floor
every little applecore
still it wasn't quite enough
wine and juices for my love
when push comes to shove

 

2.LyricsWhen The Bees Are Sleeping

Snowy mountain sides
with trees on
cold winds blowing by
my season
blinded by the light
everything I see
right as rain

Dead october days
no reasonlying in the hay
with heat on
nearly stuck on you
you are rubber I am glue

And it doesn't have to take too long to win it back
where the bees are sleeping
days of little hours growing longer as we walk
through solemn singing
when the choir has begun we strike a pose
and the bells start ringing

Past and present lights are shining
magic carpet rides while dining
lined up by the tides
cold and icy blue winterland
I know this to be a pleasure
all is entity, no measure
this my elegy
find out what it means to me

And it doesn't have to take too long to win it back
from a time of weeping
see the children running by with swords and paper hats
hide and seeking
and the widows had a gift for stuffing in the cracks
in the walls of wailing

 

3.LyricsNo Future

To believe
in the afterlife
to believe in different means and causes
waterbeds
sleeping chemistry
waking up to smell the bread and coffee

Wandering punks come forth
speaking of parachutes
falling

With a twist of tangerine
seasoning the surroundings
taking a chance on you
hear it on the radio
hear them play their old time rock and roll

To believe
that your work is done
when your craftsmanship becomes a pleasure
fold your hands
cover up your palms
kiss the feet of all the half bad stepping

Choruses praising food
mohawks and stars and stripes
playing along

With a twist of tangerine
seasoning the surroundings
taking a chance on you
hear it on the radio
hear them ramble on about recycling bins and pure organic waste

  

 

4.LyricsNaming The Demon

I don't want to be afraid of your ghost
when I can't see you
when you pass me your loving I know
it's all you can do

River running and a season to spare
nothing quite certain
and then black turns to white as you stare
into the whirlwinds

Evils won't bother
a long time has passed
now it's not anymore
there goes another
piece of your past
all is well like before

5.LyricsApplejuice

Things will be revealed soon enough
bright as they are
how we went and made you feed on glass
see through, transparent, homeward
like crispy winter air
killing hour after hour

We recognize you say hello
so close to midnight
caught a feeling for the blues
heavy and amplified

Try the sugar taste of our blood
like strawberry wine
candy apple days have come to pass
probably almost for certain if we were japanese
overthrown by your melodies

We recognize you say hello
swimming the moonlight
it's i everything we do
our subtle overdrive

 

 

 

 

6.LyricsRa#1

Careful careful others are eating
feeding the bombshell
mystic sun ra
something for pleasure
what I cannot tell

Swept me of my feet for a minute
cold my heart be still
so much bigger
hands on the pavement
closer on the kill

 

7.LyricsBodies Collide

At comets I stare
bloodless and bare
stronger the glare
closer the void that fills the air
flowing through me
my abc
your lsd
fully sedated devine comedy

Emphasis on what I say and on what I see
further into colored light
so is the meaning and essence of what I feel
my candle burning to still the night

These are my hands
begging for stamps
sweets and romance
done by the forces of nature it hit me by chance
bodies collide
wanting to fight
sex with the bride
unsatisfied I go looking for another bite

Emphasis on what I say and on what I see
further into colored light
so is the meaning and essence of what I feel
my candle burning to still the night

8.LyricsDaughters of Heavy

Touches from the simple sex
include me and deny me
at a time where I am fixed
by the neat and tidy

If it's not at all what you're about
kiss the morning light that freaks you out
dare to shake the hand that holds you down
end of conversation just for now

Bed and breakfast seems to be
a quite chaotic impulse
from time to time the entity
is coming down around us

If it's not at all what you're about
kiss the morning light that freaks you out
dare to shake the hand that holds you down
end of conversation just for now

If it's not at all what you're about
kiss the morning light that freaks you out
dare to shake the hand that holds you down
end of conversation just for now

 
9.LyricsPixies

Everything I do
and have come to know
mourning jackets
warning signs
and I know it's wrong
still I speak your name
hard and heavy
soft through light

And the words will make your eye bleed
just a drop every now and then
we could wait and lose our senses
and become the last supermen

It is hard to say
whether true or false
when ecstatic
you're all claws
pour a glass for me
from the linden tree
I know better
busy bee

And our house was built by pixies
so you see there's sugar to find
It's a home we live and breathe in
whenever we do find the time

And the words will make your eye bleed
just a drop every now and then
we could wait and lose our senses
and become the last supermen

 

 

 

 

 

10.LyricsQueen of Calm

What a darling time we had
we were down and we were glad
there were forces from below
we were caught in undertow

And I like to be here now
can't escape it anyhow
safe in the eye of the storm
swinging with the queen of calm

With a cheer at hand for me
you have got a fun disease
permanently safe and warm
haven't felt like that for long

Come a sudden rainfall
from above my tree
shine a light down, do it endlessly
form the edge of your mouth
and it never stops
shut your mouth now, there's no need to talk

Blowing up like dynamite
I impress and I ignite
since I know what makes you smile
what it takes to make you mine

11.LyricsSounds Below The Sun

Sounds below the sun
switch from off to on
by the sea I stand
listening to the band

I have no worries
but I've got two hands
all I remember is magic and mysteries
helping a neighbour build his land

Mornings gone all wrong
mornings filled with song
water in the pond
ever and anon

No reproduction
no sleep till Mars
ever so present the time colliding
travelling in ships and speeding cars

I have no worries
but I've got two hands
all I remember is magic and mysteries
helping a neighbour build his land

12.LyricsMary (Bonus track)

Mary's off to sleep
dark and bittersweet
bloodshed from the trees
dripping on her knees

Dripping down like wine
falling red leaves
these two intertwine
with the babies

Billyboy on booze
demons on the loose
killing in the name
soothing just the same

Laughing very loud
laugh like crazy
turn them inside out
tear the daisies

Dripping down like wine
falling red leaves
everything that dies
soft and shady
