Roy Wood
04:16
|
|||
They hear his footsteps in the hall
But can't see anything at all
Out in the garden you can hear his singing plain
And some have seen him growing flowers in the rain
But Roy Wood wouldn't mind
He keeps a portrait of the Queen
He keeps it where it can't be seen
He has a beard of stars and his head is all at sea
He turns it upside down to rest it on his knee
But Roy Wood wouldn't mind
He's on his own
He plays the saxophone
He puts away his clarinet
And plays the slide trombone
He's on his own
He knows your minds are blown
He likes to turn his Dansette up
And play The Rolling Stones

Heel To Toe
04:03
|
|||
You're readymade for the chemical arcade
You'll get it yet
You're so afraid that your future's a parade of your regret
Oh! You bow so low
You'll reap what you sow
So watch how you go, how you go
Heel to toe
So steady on, we'll be glad when you are gone and far away
"Already gone", is all we really want to hear you say
Oh! You bow so low
You'll reap what you sow
So watch how you go, how you go
Heel to toe

Sleep
04:23
|
|||
I watch your hands moving on the pillowcase
They make a picture there that you can then erase
And I feel you slipping into sleep
Away from me to Heaven's gate, so many promises to keep
And I'll try to help you count the sheet
I see your hair falling gently on your eyes
A magic curtain behind which dreams materialize
And I hear your breath as you submerge
Diving down below the surface, breaking on the verge
And I'll try to feel the water surge
Now, sleep...
I touch your skin and you barely even stir
Your eyes are twitching and your speech is getting slurred
But you seem to see me from in there
Riding 'cross a starry sky on your very own night mare
But I'd lie beside you anywhere
Your legs are spread on a bed of eiderdown
And on your sleepy head you wear your soverign crown
But I feel like Midas in reverse
Roll the film back to the place before things get any worse
And I'll try to break the curse
Now, sleep...

Rays of the Sun
02:30
|
|||
Tell everyone to follow the sun
You'll find me where water meets sky
Out on the deep where the stars go to sleep
And horizon's a trick of the eye
Rays of the sun blaze in wonderful golden haze
Chasing the one who turns all our nights to days
There you'll find me 'cause there I will be
'til oceans stop hosting the tides
I'll never give up, though I'll never reach up
To touch the place where she hides
Rays of the sun blaze in wonderful golden haze
Chasing the one who turns all our nights to days

Seven League Boots
03:26
|
|||
In the green of space and the blue of time
I climbed the highest mountain and I claimed the peak as mine
No sooner had I flown my colors there
I heard my name called from below
And found myself ensnared, ensnared
So put on your boots and get you to my side
Don't let your heart fail in low or high tide
Come save or forsake me, you'll have to decide
Seven league boots won't hide
Too far to go, too dear to fly
You haven't got the time to ask the who, what, when, or why
You're needed now like you were never needed then
So put 'em on, come 'cross the pond
And let me live again, again
So put on your boots and get you to my side
Don't let your heart fail in low or high tide
Come save or forsake me, you'll have to decide
Seven league boots won't hide

Purple Heart Magic
02:47
|
|||
I could last forever
'cause forever's no time at all
I could wait by the gate for a dancehall date
Or I could scale your garden wall
It doesn't matter if it's now or later
'Cause I'm hardly in my prime
When the time is right we'll be tripping the light
A fantastic pantomime
'Cause I've got a pocket full of purple heart magic
Ain't it tragic?
There's nowhere left to go and
They're closing all the discos down
We could go together
'Cause together we could do it all
We could ride around town 'til the sun goes down
Or we could dance until we fall
'Cause I've got a pocket full of purple heart magic
Ain't it tragic?
There's nowhere left to go and
They're closing all the discos down

Brighter Days
03:00
|
|||
Gonna think about tomorrow
And forget about today
Gonna leave behind my sorrow
Brighter days ahead they say
Never thought I would go hungry
Never knew I'd be so cold
Better let it be what must be
Better days ahead I'm told
I'm mad about the lovers
'Cause they feel no pain as they hold onto each other
I'm mad about the moon and the stars
And the sun shining brighter days
Gonna look into the future and forget about the past
'Cause we may not live forever
But we sure can get there fast
Gonna raise a glass to Ezra 'cause we all made our mistakes
But he paid the price and then some
And it makes my poor heart ache
I'm mad about the lovers
'Cause they feel no pain as they hold on to each other
I'm mad about the moon and the stars
And the sun shining brighter days

Out
04:08
|
|||
First you look outside for cover
Then you huddle down
Make your break before you're discovered
In sunny spotlight town
Unforgiven you're screwdriven
Into the hole you found
It's all inside but here you hide
Like a fugitive underground
Your captivity makes you want to shout
But you'd rather be inside than be out
Now you look in feigned surprise
And you feel your conscience chafe
You've become all you despise
But at least your secret's safe
Letters true and deeply felt
Are written every day
But paper ears just fuel your fears
'Cause they might give you away
Your captivity makes you want to shout
But you'd rather be inside than be out

Caroline
03:04
|

You can wear those flowers in your hair
I can't wait to see you standing there
But if you knew what love could do
You'd let your love light shine
And I could tell the whole world that you're mine
You can hide yourself away from me
I can bide my time 'til you agree
But if you knew what love could do
You'd let your love light shine
And I could tell the whole world that you're mine

Each Mortal Day
04:01
|
|||
We are safe and we are warm
But we still can't escape the storm within or without
Walls have ears and might have eyes
But we came here with the perfect disguise within and without
Days roll by and with them the things we dearly prize
One more dies each mortal day
Faith deceives and hope destroys
But I don't believe in those charity boys within or without
You were told the truth's a lie
So you believe what you deny within and without
Days roll by and with them the things we dearly prize
One more dies each mortal day
Meanwhile I notice the world has passed us by
And we'll cry each mortal day
I followed him up to bed
I should have left instead
We were deadlocked
He was cocked and loaded

Be Here Now
05:42
|
|||
Lie down and close your eyes
Awaken to the dream
Where things in sight may not be quite as they seem
Arriving there just in time
A revolution in the dark
Where sirens wail and cruisers sail down the boulevard
The world is changing
Not for the better
The past remembers when the future sent a letter
And all the promises that we were meant to keep
Were left to rot, dreams half-forgot
While we emerged from sleep
Lie down and close your eyes
We'll dream beneath the stars
And listen to the music of the guitars
The world is changing
Not for the better
The past remembers when the future sent a letter
And all those promises were shots across the bow
You would have been there then if only you knew how
So be here now
