Whistle Song
I'm not confined to rhythm and rhyme
But I might be when I'm talking to you
That's not to say we can't find another way
Who cares as long as we get through

Chorus:

Do you want to make a conflict out of this union
Putting a square into the round hole leads to confusion
You're sitting on semptex with the fuse on
And I don't want to be around for the explosion

We could of course resort to force
But the bruises are too deep to be considered
So I'll sing on all the same even if in vain
For time it is the greatest healer

--Chorus

I don't want to be a square in a round hole
I don't want to be round for the explosion

Can You See
Can you see what I can see
It's a place with no time
A song without a rhyme
A love without a lover
But the feeling is mine
Oh why

Chorus:

Watching you I can see a glow
Feeling you in the wind that blows from nowhere
My mind is empty of thoughts to read
Is it because I'm alone and your not here

Listen to that girl softly weeping
Looks like she’s slowly dying
Don’t be fooled by that initial seeping
The tidal wave isn’t far behind

--Chorus

Won't Bother
I can't tell what's come over you
Was it something I said
But I don't think you hurt that easily
There's something going round in your head
That I can't figure out, you won't let it out
To me

Chorus:

I won't bother you anymore
With the contents of my mind
I won't bother you anymore
Maybe I was out of line

Time won't tell because its lost its voice
Blow out the match before it burns your fingers
Sometimes I almost wish I had a choice
But to wish would be hoping
For something that never
Can be

--Chorus


Time Can Only
When you go, there's a hole, the size of the world
And with a sigh, time slows down again
And then you're gone, but so much lingers on
Just for a while, only until time tries
To take you away from me

And time hasn’t met your eyes
And time hasn’t seen your smile
But time lets me see, into your soul
Your love for me, many lifetimes unknown
And how in this one, I waited so long until
I found you

And time can only stand idly by
And time shall be our servant
Until we die
Until we die


Golden Fools
Fools gold and it's glistening
Not that it's the real gold that is missing
Swine don't see any difference
Between those pasty pearls and the real ones

Chorus
:

24 carat reality, and it's blowing right over your head

Ready for the taking thats your mission
Persuit of status in this system
Outshine the shiny "heh you can dis them"
If that's what it takes take it it's your gem

--Chorus

Fools gold and it's glistening
It's too bright to be resisting
A carat on a stick is your vibration
Going round in circles your destination

--Chorus


Babycatshake
Love is a jungle, don't tell me it's not
Sometimes you can't tell what is what
Sometimes it's crazy sometimes it's hot
You can't be too careful you could be shot
Don't tell me you don't know what I mean
'Cause if you don't I don't know where you've been
Some kind of cage, some kind of dream
Love's not a zoo it's gotta be free

Chorus:


Move to the love groove, babycatshake
Stride like a cooger sugar, strut like an ape
In the jungle of love tiger you can be free
You can be any creature that you want to be

Now don't be trying to tell me what I've got
Love is eternal it doesn't rot
Sometimes I can't see what is what
But that doesn't mean that I've forgotten
What seems so real can be rotten
Time can be wasted being besotten
What seems real fake
That's up to you and what you want to take
So if you don't want to give, get out of this jungle

--Chorus


Gettin' Around
I ain't got nothing to say
That won't get you down
I gotta turn my head away
To hide my frown

Chorus1:

I don't mean to laugh at you
But I won't be sorry if I do
I'm just getting around
Being selfish

I gotta close the curtains
To conceal the shadows
I gotta turn up the music
To drown out the screams

Chorus2:

To see you hurt is my last wish
But I think I prefer my face just like it is
I'm getting around
Being selfish

I don't mean to laugh at you
But I won't be sorry if I do
To see you hurt is my last wish
But I think I prefer my face just like it is
I'm getting around
Being selfish


Do Not Dance
Do not dance
For subtlety is not your cause
Though hidden beneath that beauty
Is that fickle mood which does not lie
This hollow simplistic sophistication would make me pause
You might sway but the earnest shall not die
The earnest shall not die

Do not sing
The tune of my slumber
For I shall sleep in hatred yet mistaken
In this night of torment a millenium whispers by
Would you too dive into this sun and die
Time forsaken


Your Pipe
Well I may not look too good
And I don't feel much better
But I ain't goin to sit around here
Taking that that stormy weather
That you're propagating across the room
Indicating the pending doom
But you thrive on it, thrive on it
Don't tell me that that ain't true

Chorus:


Don't put too much in your pipe
You'll never be able to smoke it
You can say what you think is right
But that doesn't mean you can cope with it

I wish I could fool myself, just a little bit longer
Maybe then you'd be here by me
Maybe again I'll never be
And I have to admit I hate your clothes
And your attitude gets up my nose
But you thrive on it, thrive on it
Don't tell me that that ain't true

--Chorus

Your fears will not be allayed
Those horrors will never go away
You thrive on it, thrive on it
Thrive on it, thrive on it
Don't tell me that that ain't true


Shake It
If you shake it the right way
You can get it to do what you want
If you fake it in a sly way
You'll end up on your own

Chorus1:

You can take it or leave it
It's up to you and your soul
But if you fake it you'll feel it
Your apple's already got a hole
You can try to control it, try to break it
But why do you have to fight
Your losing if you just can't shake it
Have a look around and see what's right

Chorus2:

Call it karma, call it providence
Call it whatever you like
'Cause right is what you make it
If you can find your soul you,ll know what's right

--Chorus1
--Chorus2

Shake shake shake it, you don't have to fake it
Heh come on now get into the groove
Shake shake shake it, you don't have to fake it
Heh come on now you've got nothing to lose

Alfie's Demise
I'll tell you the story of Alfie's demise
That's if you wanna listen
Born with a grudge and a tongue full of lies
Half his world was missing

Chorus:

You can't blame on him
That's what they say
Guilt doesn't know how to play by those rules
When it comes sometimes it comes to stay

Alfie was dim but he wasn't a fool
And he soon learned how to play
He built up his arms and his own set of rules
And went on his merry way

--Chorus

He walked on some heads and went behind bars
And now he's doing time
It is said that his life has a bloody big scar
But he doesn't seem to mind

--Chorus

You Say
You say that I’ m bright
Within your life
The funny thing is I bathe in your light

I know that I’m strong
But sometimes I’m wrong
And wrought with anger and fear
But to know that you’re here
Is all that I need
No matter how far away you might be
To know that you’re here
On this planet with me
