Come back to me if you’re feeling good
Come back to me if you’re feeling love
It takes a storm to find out where lefts dry
Just take a form and fill it out tonight
Like attracts like on the astral plain
I’ve been up there in an ancient dream
So catch a flight when you do depart
Just lose your keys but keep your heart
Come back to me if you’re feeling bad
Come back to me if you’re feeling had
It takes a shock to give your life some spark
Unpick the lock lift up your blue heart
Like attracts like on the astral plain
I’ve been up there in an ancient dream
So catch a flight when you do depart
Just lose your keys but keep your heart

I transport all peoples souls
From one world to another
You can call a taxi rank
And you can call me brother
Through a stargate
We will take a single soul or lovers
Til we find the perfect place
For them to rediscover
All the love that they once had
For life and one another
Sister acts and brotherhoods
And fathers and their mothers
When we get there we will share
Cos our love never stutters
We have been the chosen ones
The ones who heart a flutters
I’m an interstellar taxi driver
You may think I’m dead
But I’m the last survivor
I’m an interstellar taxi driver
Come and take a trip
In my futuristic glider

it’s a battle every day
i’m lucky if the sky is grey
nothing ever goes my way
lenny kravitz (turn away)
you’re flashy
tittle tattle every day
who cares what people say
nothing ever goes my way
LK turn away you’re feisty
you can only get knocked about so much
before your head goes into double dutch
before your foot comes off the drivers clutch
before you start to lose your every touch
lk turn away you’re crazy
its a battle..
you’re insane

Serial - Unglugged

She follows trends, like they’re going out of fashion
She’s got no friends, cos she lacks a lot of passion
She loves her hair, it’s got no rhyme or reason
It follows her, through every single season
And when it rains, she leaves the land of living
She steals a sigh, and gives what she is giving
She cries out loud, my life is unfulfilling
She takes her coat, and dreams about a killing
Her love she sends, through the television
Goes round the bend, And settles on derision
She overstares, and should be done for treason
Goes on a spree, And copies Liam Neeson
And when it rains, she leaves the land of living
She steals a sigh, and gives what she is giving
She cries out loud, my life is unfulfilling
She takes her coat, and dreams about a killing
About a killing, about a killing, about a killing
And then she tends, to find a bed to crash on
Remembers when, to have another session
Forgets her cares, her soul begins a freezing
Puts on her flares, her Gods she is appeasing
And when it rains, she leaves the land of living
She steals a sigh, and gives what she is giving
She cries out loud, my life is unfulfilling
She takes her coat, and dreams about a killing
About a killing, about a killing, about a killing

One more special day to go count the time down then we’ll know
slide the abacus by ROW by ROW
and i know now in my heart now its too far now broken stars
one more shooting star to go through the atmosphere so slow
taking all the birds out CROW by CROW
and i know now in my heart now its too far now broken stars

I’m the gambler
I’ll take your money
Put it on the table
On the table
I’m the gambler
I’ll call you honey
Take your money
When
I need some food
Its time to beg and steal and borrow
This time
I’ll not think of tomorrow
Its time to go and drown my sorrows
In the bar
How fars too far??

i’m gonna move to john o groats
and you can move to Dover
but don’t tell me that one thing

cos people aren’t poets
they just know everything
they don’t show it
they just have a quick fling
cos people aren’t poets
there’s no streak that runs deep
their bodies tow it
but their minds are cheap
i know you know but you won’t go and just say so
WHY
i know you know but you won’t go and just say so
WHY
live on shoe strings

Oblivion - Unglugged

So here’s to oblivion
We’ll have a good time
Cheers to everyone
Its you on my mind
Its time for a drink
A wise man once said
Lets go to the brink
And paint this town red
We’ll start with the few
Light ales we’ve got
And after the brews
Its time for some shots
So we’ll hit the the town
And go on the pull
Your old wedding gown
Is looking quite dull
We’ll end in a bar
Or clubbin’ with ease
A bottle of dog
Is thrown in the trees
We’ll do it again
Because its the best
We’ll drink in the east
And drink the west
I love you oblivion
The hangover says
Two fingers to you
And more to the rest

On top of the hilltop surrounded by men
I’m counting to seven they’re counting to ten
The people are hungry again and again
And there’s nothing inside you apart from a pen
The man he said ugly the man he’s at ten
So fold up your worries and concentrate zen
A phobia is good to forget all your friends
With enemies like these who’ll need them again
Could you ever stick all of the jibes
And could you ever kick women with knives
Could you listen to all of their lies
Adrenaline junkies it’s good to survive
Have you ever been put in a corner
And have you ever had blood on your shoulders
Have you ever been down on your knees
Well roll up your blindness and roll up your sleeves
Now is the moulding of every bad blood
It’s time that you orchestrate everything good
You have to be better time after time
It’s easy to summon your strength from a lie
Now I’m at seven and he is at sixes
He wishes that he could get out of this fixture
Don’t take your eyes off the pity of life
Go for the kill and then go get a prize
All of the commentaries of all of the men
Are not so important they can’t start again
It’s what you know now not no what you knew then
It’s easy to live if you like killing men
Fashion is fast there’s a high price to pay
But I know that I’ll come back and get you one day
If there’s a reason to carry a tray
Well I’ll put your teeth on it and end it today
Power is everything power can stay
Power can talk it’s way out of affray
Keep what you need like your heart and keys
Throw everything else that you don’t need away
At the end of the day all the cliches are stains
On the minds of the purist that’s what left remains
It’s all about nothing to you that’s a shame
But you know that I’ll come back and fight you again

Star Dreamer - Unglugged

I’m a star dreamer
I’m a star dreamer
We’ll go outside
Look up to the sky
A shooting star
Flashes quickly by
It took some time
To get to where we are
But now we’re there
I think that we’ll go far
I’m a star dreamer
This galaxy
Will do for you me
And what lies next
Is interesting to me
So shower down
Stars and asteroids
And raise your arms
And listen to the noise

Check check check
check check check
I’m going down my friend
Down on the ground again
What do you think my friend
This could be the end
This could be the end
This could be the end
Sometimes I love you so
You say the sweetest things
At times I can’t let go
There’s no more diamond rings
You caught me down my friend
Down on myself again
What do you think my friend
This could be the end
This could be the end
This could be the end
And words leak out of me
It’s just a poets thing
My angel smiles on me
But she’s just broke her wing
