Candlelight Song

In the morning
Of the morning
I hear morning
Of the deepest kind
Kind and kindly
Soft and silly
Wile and willinlg less
Much less much less
Whats best whats best
Lifelessness
My doll is dead
Listen to the song sing along
Listen to the song sing along

Nightmares

It seems that the problem is very deep
cause everytime I try to sleep
I have nightmares
Thinking about
Getting together with you
No no I wouldnt say so
I would not call it a curse
But what worries me then
Is when I wake up if it might be worse

Breakin Hearts

See that girl
She put me in a whirl
Shes got a way of breakin hearts
Man o man
I wonder if I can
Shes got a way of breaking hearts
Seems like she is always
Workin on the sly
Then she tells her poor man
Good bye
Holy smoke
I wonder if theres hope
Shes got a way of breakin hearts
I will not tarry
Im askin her to marry me
Even though shes got a way of
Breakin hearts

Forbidden

come with us and play!
see, we have breasts as women!
from your tents by the sea
come play with us: it is forbidden
come with us and play!
lo, bare, straight legs in the water!
by our boats we stay
then swimming away
come to us: it is forbidden!
come with us and play!
see, we are as tall as women!
our eyes are keen:
our hair is bright:
our voices speak outright:
we revel in the sea's green!
come play: it is forbidden!

Just Like My Father

Im just like my father
But I am much worse
He hurt his mother
I hurt mine worse
Im just like my brother
He hurt his wife
I hurt mine first
It hurts to be like cain
Aint no way
Im not able
Yknow what I mean
He hurt my mother
I hurt her worse
Never stop the
Never stopping

Nobody ever taught me
How to dance like that

Heartache---too late

Five and a half weeks with one day off

Fat

I hope
You got
Fat
Cause if you got
Really fat
You just might want to see me come back
I dont care
How heavy or how skinny
Just gimme
Something to love
A little extra weight would never look no nicer on nobody else but you
And I could always use a little bit more
To hold on to
And if I get a fright in the middle
Of the night Ill cling to you
