Step off the train all alone at dawn 
Back into the hole where I was born  
The sun in the sky never raised an eye to me 
The blood on the trax and must be mine  
The fool on the hill and I feel fine  
Don't look back cos you know what you might see  

Look into the wall of my mind's eye  
I think I know, but I don't know why  
The questions are the answers you might need 
Coming in a mess going out in style  
I ain't good-looking but I'm someone's child 
No-one can give me the air that's mine to breathe  

I met my maker  
I made him cry 
And on my shoulder he asked me why  
His people won't fly through the storm  
I said "Listen up man,  
they don't even know you're born"  

All my people right here, right now  
D'You Know What I Mean?  
All my people right here, right now  
D'You Know What I Mean?  
All my people right here, right now  
D'You Know What I Mean?  
Yeah, yeah  

I don't really care for what you believe  
So open up your fist or you won't receive  
The thoughts and the words of every man you'll need  
Get up off the floor and believe in life 
No-one's ever gonna ever ask you twice  
Get on the bus and bring it on home to me  
 

MY BIG MOUTH  

Everybody knows ... but no-one's saying nothing 
And it's a sound so very loud ... that no-one can hear 
I got something in my shoe ...  
it's keeping me from walking 
Down the long and winding road ... back home to you  

Around this town you've ceased to be 
That's what you get for sleeping with the enemy 
Where angels fly you won't play 
So guess who's gonna take the blame for ...  

My big mouth, my big name 
Who'll put on my shoes while they're walking 
Slowly down the hall of fame? 
Into my big mouth you could fly a plane 
Who'll put on my shoes while they're walking 
Slowly down the hall of fame? 
Slowly down the hall of fame  

I ain't never spoke to God 
And I ain't never been to heaven 
But you assumed I knew the way 
Even though the map was given  
And as you look into the eyes 
Of a bloody cold assasin 
Only then you'll realize 
With who's life you have been messin'  
 

MAGIC PIE  

An extraordinary guy 
Can never have an ordinary day,  
He might live a long goodbye 
But that is not for me to say 
I dig his friends, I dig his shoes  
But he is just a child with nothing to lose  
But his mind  

They are sleeping while they dream 
And then they want to be adored 
They who don't say what they mean 
Will live and die by their own sword. 
I dig their friends, I dig their shoes 
But they are like a child with nothing to lose 
In their minds, their minds.  

But I'll have my way 
In my own timebr 
I'll have my say 
My star will shine  

Cos you see me I got my Magic Pie 
Think of me yeah that was me I was that passer by 
I've been and now I've gone.  

There are but a thousand days  
preparing for a thousand years 
Many minds to educate  
the people who have disappeared 
D'you dig my friends? D'you dig my shoes? 
I am like a child with nothing to lose but my mind 
My mind  
 

STAND BY ME  

Made a meal and threw it up on Sunday 
I've got a lot of things to learn 
Said I would and I believe in one day 
Before my heart starts to burn.  

So what's the matter with you? 
Sing me something new ... Don't you know  
The cold and wind and rain don't know  
They only seem to come and go, away  

Times are hard when things have got no meaning 
I've found a key upon the floor  
Maybe you and I will not believe  
in the things we find behind the door  

Stand By Me -- Nobody knows the way it's gonna be  
Stand By Me -- Nobody knows the way it's gonna be  
Stand By Me -- Nobody knows the way it's gonna be  

If you're leaving will you take me with you 
I'm tired of talking on my phone  
But there is one thing I can never give you 
My heart will never be your home  
 

I HOPE, I THINK, I KNOW 

They're trying hard to put me in my place  
And that is why I've gotta keep running  
The future is mine and it's no disgrace  
Cos in the end the past means nothing  

You tell me I'm free then you tie me down  
And from my chains I think it's a pity  
What did it cost you to wear my crown  
You don't like me why don't you admit it  

D'you feel a little down today?  
Bet you ain't got much to say?  
But you're gonna miss me when I'm not there 
You know I don't care, You know I don't care  

As we beg and steal and borrow  
Life is hit and miss and this 
I Hope, I Think, I Know 
And if I hear the names you call  
If I stumble catch me when I fall  
Cos baby after all,  
You'll never forget my name 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

If I may be so bold could I just say something  
Come and make me my day  
The clouds around your soul  
don't gather there for nothing  
But I can chase them all away  

Why d'you need a reason for to feel happy 
Or be shining for the rest of the world  
Give me just a smile and would you make it snappy 
Get your shit together girl  

You got a feeling lost inside 
It just won't let you go 
Your life is sneaking up behind 
It just won't let you go  
No it just won't let you go  
What I'm trying to say ...  

Is would you maybe, come dancing me  
Cos to me it doesn't matter  
if your hopes and dreams are shattered 
When you say something you make me believe  
In the girl who wears a dirty shirt  
She knows exactly what she's worth  
Knows exactly what she's worth to me! 
That I can see, I can see  

If you ever find yourself inside a bubble  
You've gotta find your own way home  
You can call me anytime you're seeing double 
Now you know you're not alone  
 

FADE IN-OUT 

Get on the rollercoaster  
The fair's in town today  
Y'gotta be bad-enough to beat the brave  

So get on the helter skelter  
Bowl into the fray  
Y'gotta be bad-enough to beat the brave  

You fade in-out  
You fade in-out  
Without a doubt  
I don't see no shine  
Today is just a daydream 
Tomorrow we'll be castaway  

Coming in-out of nowhere  
Singin' rhapsody  
Y'gotta be bad-enough to wanna be  

Sitting upside a high chair  
With the devils refugee  
Is gonna be blinded by the light 
That follows me  

She fade in-out  
She fade in-out  
Without a doubt  
I don't see no shine  
Today is just a daydream 
Tomorrow she'll be castaway  
 

DON'T GO AWAY 

Cold and frosty morning there's not a lot to say  
About the things caught in my mind 
And as the day was dawning my plane flew away  
With all the things caught in my mind  

I don't wanna be there when you're ... 
Coming down  
I don't wanna be there when you hit the ground  

So don't go away, say what you say  
Say that you'll stay  
Forever and a day ... In the time of my life  
Cos I need more time, yes I need more time 
just to make things right  

Damn my situation and the games I have to play  
With all the things caught in my mind  
Damn my education I can't find the words to say  
With all the things caught in my mind  

Me and you whats going on?  
All we seem to know is how to show 
The feelings that are wrong  
 

BE HERE NOW 

Wash your face in the morning sun 
Flash your pan at the song that I'm singing 
Touchdown bass living on the run  
Make no sweat at the hole that you're digging  

Wrap up cold when it's warm outside  
Your shit jokes remind me of Digsy's 
Be my magic carpet ride 
Fly me down to capital city in the sun  

Kicking up a storm from the day that I was born 
Sing a song for me one from 'Let It Be' 
Open up your eyes get a grip on yourself inside  
 

ALL AROUND THE WORLD  

It's a bit early in the midnight hour for me  
To go through all the things that I want to be 
I don't believe in everything I see  
Y'know I'm blind so why d'you disagree  

So take me away cos I just dont want to stay  
Cos all the lies you make me say 
Are getting deeper every day 
These are crazy days but they make me shine  
Time keeps rolling by  

All Around The World, you've gotta spread the word 
Tell 'em what you heard  
You're gonna make a better day 
All Around The World, you've gotta spread the word 
Tell 'em what you heard  
You know it's gonna be okay  

So what you gonna do when  
the walls come falling down?  
You never move you never make a sound  
So where you gonna swim  
with the riches that you found? 
If you're lost at sea then I hope that you've drowned  
 

IT'S GETTIN' BETTER (MAN!!) 

Say something, shout it from the rooftops 
off your head  
Make it sort of mean something  
make me understand or I'll forget 
The people here on life's beaches  
they wish upon the waves that hide the sand 
Let them know that life teaches  
you to build a castle in the sand  

Maybe the songs that we sing are wrong  
Maybe the dreams that we dream are gone  
So bring it on home and it wont be long  
It's getting better man!  

Hey! What was that you said to me? 
Just say the word and I'd be free? 
And where the stars are shining bright  
It's getting better man! 
And crashing in upon a wave 
It's calling out beyond the grave  
And we're the fire in the sky  
We're getting better man!  

Build something build a better place and call it home 
Even if it means nothing  
you'll never-ever feel that you're alone
