Tired Horse Soup


Speak Of The Devil


The devil in front of me He said "my name’s Jim" He got four roses in his red hand for me
And then I shot the first one It's burning down my throat And then i'm at his mercy… the spell that he throws
Ooh ooh!
The devil inside of me I said "you're so sweet, Oh lady won't you, please, give your little soul to me?"
Oh Jimmy, why don't you leave me alone? He said "being alone is all you've ever been, dear John"
Speak of the devil and he doth appear…



Black Sister


Boom boom, i'm in bloom I can touch the moon Hand in hand, we'll get some fun Gonna ride the groove
Shine on me, shine on you Shine on everyone Ride me in a Cadillac Straight right to the sun
A hard rain's gonna fall It’s gonna drawn 'em all And black sister's gonna save you She's gonna sing your blues away
Go and tell your mamma We'll marry in Alabama In some lonesome chapel In the middle of the road
White skin, black soul Red heart and true love That's all we got, honey No, we don't the money
La la la la... Sing your blues away!


Agnes


Agnes, you came to see us Hope you'll never leave us out You'll never leave us out I think of me and the boys Lost in your toys
One fine day you will leave us out But somehow we'll meet again Somewhere down this winding lane And we'll keep by your side For the rest of your life
(We'll keep by your side) Don’t ever leave us out…
Time keeps going by And your laughter and your crying Are only echoes in your mind I love to think of our tunes Sticking them too...
(We'll keep by your side) Don’t ever leave us out…



How love feels


You think you're a fine good lover You think you're a proper friend You ain't nothing but a vampire You ain't nothing but a vampire
It's not to call everyone "brother" It's not to fuck a thousand girls Mmmh... you haven't got a clue Mmmh... you haven't got a clue
I bet you can't remember last night... you haven't got a clue!
You don't know how love feels You don't know how love feels Oh I'm gonna have a good time Now I'm gonna have a good time
You don't know, You don't know You don’t know how love looks
Ohhh nothing Ohhh nothing Oh nothing close to you close to you
You don't know, You don't know You never ever gonna get to know That now’s about the time to say goodbye

They give you money They give you loving You give 'em cheap rum and tales of stardom! You give 'em cheap rum and tales of stardom! You give 'em cheap rum and tales of stardom!


Been there before


Coming in and out of you Been there before Long ago... Jogging down the road Cried there before Yes, you know...
Stay there for a while, You gonna need a bit of loving
Be there for a life, You'd better get a bit of loving
You know you've been there before... As you walk through the door, Lying on the ground, You turned the world around Till you found out your soul
Wishing to understand The stars above There we go...
Taken by the hand of God Been there before Through the door
Stay there for a while, You gonna need a bit of loving…
You know you've been there before... As you walk through the door, Lying on the ground You turned the world around Till you found out your soul
The love you take Within you in your journey through the wall And beyond... will get you Back in time right to your home… Safe and sound, you gently come around You find out that your soul's been there before...


You


And I could feel you next to me As I was walking down the street My eyes were covered from behind A shiver sent down through my spine
It would be rude to call it love Just a 4-letter word... To delimit the way we feel Ain't that so criminally mean?
Slowly sunken, slowly darkened… Draw the meaning, elusive feelings, I... what am I supposed to do now? What am I supposed to do… If Thought can never be right then, Are the thoughts on Thought wrong too?
What am I supposed to do… …With you? …With you? …With you?
And at the end, what will I find?
I find... You, pure Free from thoughts and words You have no end and I have no beginning...
Show me the fence!!! You can't They can't They can't Show me the wall!!! They can't They can't God can't No border, no fence No border, no fence



Baby Cry


No one knows what it's like... To take over realms of death, love & night No one has ever felt The precise moment when dream turns to death
So find a little hole and hide To drop a little tear tonight Say a little spell to me And baby...
You smashed our picture on the wall And read the spell from the old book You dressed in black and cry and mourn Evil spirits, they adore you
...Dark around your heart But it's still a dim light somewhere Good and evil are not so far In the end i could only love you...
If you ever die... You'll see the spirits you've been messing with If you ever find You got nothing but a tear...
You need black to see white As you need death to feel alive… You walked the left path from The misty morning you were born…
...Dark around your heart But it's still a dim light somewhere Good and evil are not so far In the end i could only love you...
...When you cry...
If you ever die... You'll see the spirits you've been messing with If you ever find You got nothing but a tear...
No one knows what it's like... To take over realms of death love...



The Potion


Dry all of your ocean And cry, cry it all again From your eye to every motion The potion that we share take us there...
We glimpse the end...

When the sky go crimson red Won't you show me your love? (Show me your love) And when seas rise to our heads Won't you show me your love?
When the dream turns to the end Won't you show me your love? (Show me your love) When you lift the veil from your eye, then... Then I'll show you my love
Turn off all your senses Who's there?, what's there?, there is your home Oh son, the void and the silence They are your mamma and sons and they are your bones
We glimpse the birth…
When the sky go crimson red Won't you show me your love? (Show me your love) And when seas rise to our heads Won't you show me your love?
When the dream turns to the end Won't you show me your love? (Show me your love) When you rip the veil from your eye, then... Then I'll show you my love


El Solitario


My car's on fire and fire's on my tears My mom is all and my only fear Good old Chuck told me to be good But all I do, I do it for you
Bang bang bang... Hi, I’m lonely… Solitario…
Janeiro's waiting for me and you And on my mind's Havanna Moon... "Me all alone with jug o' rum Me stand and wait for boat to come"
Bang bang bang... Hi, I’m lonely… Solitario…


Come On


She’s the kind of girl that makes you sigh And keep you all night up. Well, she’s gonna set the night on fire I’m gonna take my chance I’m not the kind of man that you could tame When love is through my veins You’d better make sure of what you feel ‘cause the night’s hot on our heels
You’d better run if you want some fun So let’s take another shot of rum…
Come on, Come on… So get your kicks with me oh girl… Come on, come on.. So get your kicks together, oh yeah…

Māyā


One breaks in 99 millions of millions of grains Tone, shape, texture... all melt into emptiness
The memories you keep The ladies you kissed... māyā
The money you earn, The corners you turn... māyā
Your sticks and your stones... Caresses you've done... māyā
Your laughter and frowns Your skin and your bones...


The Downtown Song


Oh your mamma said don't stay out of bounds And your TV said you gotta burn your pounds Oh your mirror said "don't get too high" But when the sirens call, ain’t long before you drown
Oh your baby said she'll love you And she told you, oh, to go downtown Her sweet sweet lip said... 'Oh won't you take me, take me, take me... that down'
Oh the beggar said "oh ground sweet ground..." And the Queen moans about her crown Oh your mirror said "don't get too high" But when the sirens call, ain’t long before you drown

Oh your baby said she'll love you But she told you, oh, to go back down Her trembling voice said... Please don't take me, take me, take me... that down



The Great Order Of Things


It's in the tears you cry When your mother dies It's in the twinkle of your eye When a newborn cry The great order of things The great order of things The great order of things The great and sacred side of me

And it takes a life... To climb that little mountain side... And on the top someone's lying... And all you do is ask him why...
It's in the darkness that you make When you eclipse the sunshine of May It's in the way you stumble.. When your eye is not on the lane... The great order of things The great and sacred side of me

And it takes a life... To climb that little mountain side... And on the top someone's lying... And all you do is ask him why...
And it takes a life... To climb that little mountain side... And on the top someone's lying... And all you do is ask him why...
And you get there, old and drained And suddenly you see his face And he's nobody but yourself And suddenly you’re awake…




Shining Blackout


Pretty Little Girl


Have you seen that girl? Never looks at me That pretty little girl Never looks at me She drives me mad She keeps me awake at night
She drives me mad, what can I do? Just spend the night, singing the blues
Oh pretty little girl Won’t you look at meOh pretty little girl Oh won’t you dance with me You make me sigh You make me lose my mind You make me sigh, what can I do?
Just spend the night singing the blues Oh pretty little girl You make sing and shout and no no no no no...



Gotta love you


Hey take my handHold me tightKiss my lips all night longLove you soPlease Don’t goOh no no no no
Gotta love your faceGotta love your eyesGotta love the rainWhen i’m by your sideGotta love the way you saidWhat you said last nightGotta love you soSo let me tell you why
CHORUSGotta love the coldCause you hold me tightGotta love you soCause you treat me rightGotta love the rock’n’rollMakes me feel aliveGotta love you soI’m gonna tell you why
CHORUSGotta love you, gotta love youCause i’m no foolLove your chocolate cheeksLove the things you do to meAnd the way you drop your lids


You got the Blues


You got the blues in your shoesYou got a flair in you hairAnd rock’n’roll in your soulYou got the blues, you got me too...

Mid 90's lad


Whatever happened to Camden Town?Whatever happened to the London Underground?Whatever happened to all those lazy sundays atthe pub?And all the laughs you used to had with all thelads...
Oh... You Don’t know, oh...
Whatever happened to your pretty face?Whatever happened to your almost happy days?
Whatever happened to all those lazy sundays atthe pub?And all the laughs you used to had with all thelads...
Oh... You Don’t know, oh...
Whatever happened to you?...Whatever happened to you?...Whatever happened to you?...
And every pint of beer, you used to drinkAnd goals you celebratedAnd pretty songs you used to singOh mid 90s lad, la la la la la
Whatever happened to you?


Lazy Daisy (Reprise)

La La La


Monday came as no surprise Tuesday’s killing me again Wednesday slowly fades away Thursday I just can ‘t contain
Everybody’s dancing On the Friday nightEverybody’s singing La la la la la la...

Shelter


Your eyes are like a big sea where I like to drownYour arms spread and shelter me when I’m weakand downAnd when I walk alone, and when I walk alone atnightI cry and moan and fall asleep as raining soaks myspine
So help me pleaseAnd shelter me
The streets are cracked and broken just like yourlovely face
So help me pleaseAnd shelter me
From this evil rainFrom this sharp and evil rainStop!

Diggin'


Nice sunny day in winterFlower that gorws on weedPretty sweet dreams, then you wake upBad nightmare you can’t wake upOh, I can’t stop dig-dig-dig diggin’
5am watchin the teleMean bad things into my bellyDark angel through my windowTake me to hell oh there we goOh, I can’t stop dig-dig-dig diggin’
I’ll die for sure if you’re leavingThat’s why I can’t stop diggin’You call me switch off the teleMean bad things into my bellyOh, I can’t stop dig-dig-dig diggin’
Nice sunny dayNasty sunny day
(“Nice sunny day”sings my windowAnd a song locked in my head,don‘t let me goAnd it says “what a divvy you can’t stop diggin’your hole”No I can’t stop diggin’ this human-shaped hole)
