Ignorance Is Bliss
Written by ian bairnson
I find this paradise and rest beside a river
No need to walk another mile
It seems like everyone has everything that wishes could provide
But no one seems to smile
You wont believe me when I tell you this is fantasy
Dont ask how long all this can last
The same old sun will rise and make tomorrow just like yesterday
And so your time will pass
A shelter from the storm
A room without a view
A place where you belong
And like a mothers kiss
That carries you to sleep
The ignorance is bliss
One day the wind may change and blow at your defences
And shake the ground on which you stand
One day the tide may turn and wash away your castles in the sand
And silence rule the land
A shelter from the storm

Ammonia Avenue
(eric woolfson - lead vocal)
Is there no sign of light as we stand in the darkness?
Watching the sun arise
Is there no sign of life as we gaze at the waters?
Into the strangers eyes
And who are we to criticize or scorn the things that they do?
For we shall seek and we shall find ammonia avenue
If we call for the proof and we question the answers
Only the doubt will grow
Are we blind to the truth or a sign to believe in?
Only the wise will know
And word by word they handed down the light that shines today
And those who came at first to scoff, remained behind to pray
Yes those who came at first to scoff, remained behind to pray
When you cant hear the rhyme and you cant see the reason
Why should the hope remain?
For a man will be tired and his soul will grow weary
Living his life in vain
And who are we to justify the right in all we do?
Until we seek until we find ammonia avenue

You Lie Down With Dogs
(lead vocal - lenny zakatek)
Youre such a cool woman but I love you
Such a cruel woman but I love you
Open up your eyes and realise
Youre such a fool woman but I love you
But you give me all that youve got to give
Cause it sure feels good to me
Im not your only man Im just your lover
Not your only man just another
Open up your eyes and realise
Im gonna take what I can like any other
Cause it dont mean a thing to me
Well
You lie down with dogs you fall in with thieves
Youre gonna catch something but you do as you please
Youre scratchin an itch that nothing can ease
You lie down with dogs you get up with fleas
Get out and find yourself another lover
Why dont you find yourself another lover
Open up your eyen and realise

Since The Last Goodbye
(chris rainbow - lead vocal)
The hours, the minutes seem to fly
And since the last goodbye
You and I came a long way
The nights, too short to fill with sleep
Or falling in too deep
Seem so far away now
Memories, all we share between us
Everything we were, all that we remain
But memories somehow came between us
Breaking up two minds that were one and the same
The years are moments passing by
No time to wonder why
You and I went the wrong way
The days too short to fill with dreams
Or question what it means
Are a part of me now
Remember all the leaves were falling
Walking hand in hand, standing in the rain
Remember distant voices calling

Days Are Numbers
Chris rainbow - lead vocals
The traveller is always leaving town
He never has the time to turn around
And if the road hes taken isnt leading anywhere
He seems to be completely unaware
The traveller is always leaving home
The only kind of life hes ever known
When every moment seems to be
A race against the time
Theres always one more mountain left to climb
Days are numbers
Watch the stars
We can only see so far
Someday, youll know where you are
Remember
Days are numbers
Count the stars
We can only go so far
One day, youll know where you are
The traveller awaits the morning tide

Let Yourself Go
Lead vocal: eric woolfson
Maitre charcot he can send you where the winds blow
Look in his eye and your mind goes into limbo
They say, hes mad as a hatter
Hes no medicine man
Let yourself go, let yourself go, let yourself go
Maitre charcot he can teach you what you dont know
Look in his eye and the clock runs out of tempo
He knows, its mind over matter
Youll fit in the palm of his hand
Let yourself go, let yourself go, let yourself go
It doesnt need too much explaining
It doesnt seem to be so hard
You just count to ten and then back again
And before long you wont know where you are
Maitre charcot he will catch you if you let go
Look in his eyes and your thoughts go into slow motion
You glide, like birds of a feather
He flies higher than you
Let yourself go, let yourself go, let yourself go

Doctor Tarr & Professor Fether
Lead vocal: john miles
Just what you need to make you feel better
Just what you need to make you feel
Just what you need to make you feel better
Just what you need to make you feel
At the far end of your tether
And your thoughts wont fit together
So you sleep light or whatever
And the night goes on forever
The your mind change like the weather
Your in need of doctor tarr and professor fether
Even clouds seem bright and breezy
cause the livin is free and easy
See the rat race in a new way
Like youre walkin up to a new day
Its a wise thing if youre clever
Take a lead from doctor tarr and professor fether
Find the end of the rainbow
Fly wherever the winds blow
Laugh at life like a sideshow

Dora
Lead vocal : eric woolfson
Dora, in the middle of the night
Will you wait for me
Till the morning sun shine bright
For its all a dream
And its only make believe
Dora, oh it hurts to hear you say
Youre all alone
And the pain wont go away
But its all a dream
And its only make believe
Listening through the hours of the day
Waiting for the night to end
Thinking, though its not for me to say
When will I see you again
When will I see you again
Forget the lies they whisper in your ear
And every superstitious word you hear
Dora, though the truth is hard to face
And the fantasy

Stereotomy
Lead vocal - john miles
Diamond eyes
That burn me and turn me to stone
Crystalise
And freeze me in clear monochrome
Turn me to stone; do anything you want with me
Turn me to stone; do anything you want
Stereotomy
We can make it together
Do anything you want with me
Do anything you want
Scarlet minds
Possess me and I feel no shame
Silent knives
Dissect me and I feel no pain
Stereotomy
We can make it together
Do anything you want with me
Do anything you want
Stereotomy

Limelight
Lead vocal - gary brooker
I can see the glow of a distant sun
I can feel it inside
Maybe this day could be the one
I can hear the roar of a distant crowd
They are waiting for me
Calling my name
Shouting out loud
Holding on isnt always easy
I aint gonna change my mind
Limelight you were all I ever wanted
Since it all began
Limelight shining on me
Telling the world who I am
Limelight dont let me slip right through your fingers
Theres a long way to fall
After the years of waiting
Im gonna show them all
I can see the world in a different light
Now its easy to say
