The Bird And The Bee Album

[No lyrics]

My love let me go again
Right back, back to the top of the
Slide down sad clown
Oh oh oh oh oh

My clown let me love you
What’s that back to the back of the rebound
Clown hang around
Oh oh oh oh

Hey boy wont you take me out tonight
I’m not afraid of all the reasons why we shouldn’t try

Hey boy wont you make me out tonight
I get excited when I think of crawling into your arms

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh

My light take me there again
up top to the top of the
free fall a great wall
Oh oh oh oh oh

My mouth let me kiss again
sift out, sift out all of the dust
hole black hole
Oh oh oh oh

Hey boy wont you take me out tonight
I’m not afraid of all the reasons why we shouldn’t try

Hey boy wont you make me out tonight
I get excited when I think of crawling into your arms

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh

Hey boy wont you take me out tonight
I’m not afraid of all the reasons why we shouldn’t try

Hey boy wont you make me out tonight
I get excited when I think of crawling into your arms

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh

When I was a child
You captured my devotion
I spent so many hours
Exploring mixed emotions
All of the ways you spoke to me

All of the things you provoked in me
I'll always love you

Diamond Dave no one can hold a candle
Nothing else is quite the same
Pretty Dave I'll always remember
I still carry such a flame

When you left the band
I couldn't understand it
But I've forgiven you
Now that you've recommitted

All of the time you spent away from me
All of the missed opportunity
I'll always love you

Diamond Dave no one can hold a candle
nothing else is quite the same
Pretty Dave I'll always remember
I still carry such a flame

Come on Dave
Show me what you got
I can take it

I'll always love you

Diamond Dave no one can hold a candle
Nothing else is quite the same
Pretty Dave I'll always remember
Diamond Dave I'll always remember
Pretty Dave I'll always remember
I still carry such a flame

Where is the middle, is the middle of your mind
is it the place where you stop, where you just stop trying
Call out the dogs and let them have a sniff
They might catch a little sent before you just forget it

Loosing your head is such a common theme
All your brains are falling out, falling out the open seams
Where is the heart, is the heart of the matter
I will empty out my skull of all this useless chatter

I want an empty head, i want to go to bed
For a long long long time
I want to fall behind I want to get in line
For a long long long time

What's in the name if it's a name you can't remember
You thought you had it down, but then you ran back to the center
What's in a word if that word has lost its meaning
If you say it all the time a dirty word will get its cleaning

Where is the end is the edge of understanding
I might think its over rated i cant take the line expanding
Give me a push a little push in one direction
I might need a little help with my own interconnection

I want an empty head, i want to go to bed
For a long long long time
I want to fall behind I want to get in line
For a long long long time

I want an empty head, i want to go to bed
For a long long long time
I want to fall behind I want to get in line
For a long long long time

I want an empty head, i want to go to bed
For a long long long time
I want to fall behind I want to get in line
For a long long long time

Did you hear the news?
Saw it on tv
Now ray guns are not only just the future

What are we to do?
Where are we to go?
With all the planets spinning fast around us

Will someone come and save my life
I'm caught under the weight of all this doggone life
I want a pretty little life
Will someone pull me out tonight
I'm stuck inside the walls of all this inner strife
I want a pretty little life

Just a drop of blood
Floating in the air
And nothing but the angles of my future
What are we to do?
Where are we to go
With all this beauty stretching out behind us?

Will someone come and save my life
I'm caught under the weight of all this doggone life
I want a pretty little life
Will someone pull me out tonight
I'm stuck inside the walls of all this inner strife
I want a pretty little life

I want a life
I'm caught under the weight of all my life
Want a pretty little life

Will someone come and save my life
I'm caught under the weight of all this doggone life
I want a pretty little life
Will someone pull me out tonight
I'm stuck inside the walls of all this inner strife
I want a pretty little life

From the west to the east I have flown to be near you
I have come all this way to be close, to be here with you
And now, all my heart I will lay down precisely at your feet

My beloved, oh my sweet
All the gifts you have given me
The patience and the peace,
Cherry blossoms and the candy,
I am yours, I am yours
For as long, for as long as you will have me

Dearest one, I had a dream
I mouthed the words,
The sound came out,
I spoke to you in Japanese
Oh, my love I cannot see, I heard your name
I know at once there was no place I’d rather be
All at once there was no place that I would rather be

From the west to the east I have flown to be near you
I have come all this way to be close, to be here with you
And now, all my heart I will lay down precisely at your feet

My beloved, oh my sweet
All the gifts you have given me
The patience and the peace,
Cherry blossoms and the candy,
I am yours, I am yours
For as long, for as long as you will have me

I packed my bag, I’m on my way
I am prepared for any season
I am prepared to stay
Here is my heart, my beating heart
Oh, how I’m longing for this love affair to start
How I’m longing for this love affair to finally start

From the west to the east I have flown to be near you
I have come all this way to be close, to be here with you
And now, all my heart I will lay down precisely at your feet

My beloved, oh my sweet
All the gifts you have given me
The patience and the peace,
Cherry blossoms and the candy,
I am yours, I am yours
For as long, for as long as you will have me

[… Japanese …]

From the west to the east I have flown to be near you
I have come all this way to be close, to be here with you
And now, all my heart I will lay down precisely at your feet

My beloved, oh my sweet
All the gifts you have given me
The patience and the peace,
Cherry blossoms and the candy,
I am yours, I am yours
For as long, for as long as you will have me

Hearts all around my feet
Don't you ever sweep the street
If they still can keep a beat
Hands holding other hands
I'm a girl and you're a man
Do you know what's moving me?

One night a
Meteor
Came to my door and he asked me to dance
One night a shooting star
He traveled far just to ask me to dance

Arms give away your need
Tie them up and around me
And play me as you please
Dance
Nothing left to spare
Fill it up with all your air
You're the one I want to see

One night a
Meteor
Came to my door and he asked me to dance
One night a shooting star
He traveled far just to ask me to dance

Ooooh la la la

One night a
Meteor
Came to my door and he asked me to dance
One night a shooting star
He traveled far just to ask me to dance

You broke some bones when we were young
I can remember how you moaned
So I carried you home
Like a baby

You were thirteen
And I was twelve
I can remember how it felt
Wearing your broken body on
Like a lady

Ohhh, hahhh-hah

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
If ever you need me
Just call me
I'll carry you home

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
If ever you're broken
No reason to do it alone

We were both five
You started a fire
And for a moment, all was lost
But then the rain fell from the sky
It was magic

Couldn't believe
How it came down
Puddles of water all around
But when the clouds were finally gone
It seemed tragic

Ohhh, hahhh-hah

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
If ever you need me
Just call me
I'll carry you home

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
If ever you're broken
No reason to do it alone

[Spoken: Baby, I know we've seen our share of hard times, you and me. But I want you to know that I will always, no matter what, come to you--out of the mist or into the fire, across the sea, the mountains, the desert. And if you need me, just call me and I will carry you all the way home.]

Ohhh, hahhh-hah

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
If ever you need me
Just call me
I'll carry you home

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
If ever you're broken
No reason to do it alone

[No lyrics]

Give it up for me please,
Put your hands in the air
if you know whats good for you
you'll wanna shake it like you just don't care


Would you please clap you hands?
Now get up on your feet,
I beg of you to get up and dance
It's such a crazy kick-ass beat




Pardon me, the music is moving
Moving from left to right
Apologies, for losing my cooling
Losing today, tonight



Since I'm asking so nice
Would you just entertain?
There's nothing left to hide you away
Just show a little bit of brain



Yes, that is what I mean
That's the nail that I hit
I try to be as good as I can
But I want to see your...



Would you please (repeated) ...Apologies



...would you please clap your hands





Pardon me, the music is moving
Moving form left to right
Apologies, for losing my cooling
Losing today, tonight



Would you be nasty with me
Would you like dancing with me
I think we have a very special quality




...Would you please (repeated)
...Apologies (repeated)



Pardon me, the music is moving
Moving form left to right
Apologies, for losing my cooling
Losing today, tonight

So now you want the whole world to notice that you've come around
Now you expect we'll see how you're really so much better now
But I know the truth
I won't waste my youth

On a cad and a bounder
A dog and a cheat
All the lives that you've had
All the hearts you eat
You're a rascal and a rogue
A villain and a crook
Still I tug at your line
I'm a fish on your hook
I should be better, but I'm worse

What's the point pretending that you could be a better man?
Just give in, since you always end up right back where you began
Still I know the truth
But I have a sweet tooth

For a cad and a bounder
A dog and a cheat
All the lives that you've had
All the hearts you eat
You're a rascal and a rogue
A villain and a crook
Still I tug at your line
I'm a fish on your hook

You're rash and you're hasty
You're reckless with my heart
Still I wait by the phone
I don't ever get smart
I should be better, but I'm worse

(Still I know the truth, but I have a sweet tooth)

For a cad and a bounder
A dog and a cheat
All the lives that you've had
All the hearts you eat
You're a rascal and a rogue
A villain and a crook
Still I tug at your line
I'm a fish on your hook

You're rash and you're hasty
You're reckless with my heart
Still I wait by the phone
I won't ever get smart
I should be better, but I'm worse

Yes, I am a witch
And I have conjured you
For my bidding
And all my charms and all my accidents
Are all just instruments
To lock you up

How could I know my spell was broke?
I am nothing like the girl you thought I was without your love
How could I haunt you, keep you close
When you can see my seams, the fraying of my dress?
I am defenseless

Yes, I am a carnival
A house of mirrors
And I will con you
And all my tricks and all my magic
Will keep you dizzy
With desire

How could I know my spell was broke?
I am nothing like the girl you thought I was without your love
How could I haunt you, keep you close
When you can see my seams, the fraying of my dress?
I am defenseless

How could I know my spell was broke?
I am nothing like the girl you thought I was without your love
How could I haunt you, keep you close
When you can see the seams, the fraying of my dress?
I am defenseless

Mmmm
Mmmmmmm
Mmmm

Who knows your birthday
Who knows your number
Who knows your color
Who knows your hands
Who knows the sum
The sum of all your parts

Who knows your limit
Who knows your highest
Who knows your lowest
Who knows your in
Who knows that bottom
The bottom of your heart

Hold on hold on
Keep holding on to me
I will love you from the bottom
No one holds you better than me
Hold on hold on
Doing the best we can
I will love you on your birthday
I will love you better than them

Who knows the reason
Who knows the cure
Who knows the answer
Who knows the cause
Who knows the pain
The pain when we're apart

Hold on hold on
Keep holding on to me
I will love you from the bottom
No one holds you better than me
Hold on hold on
Doing the best we can
I will love you on your birthday
I will love you better than them

Oh, my children
Oh, my loves
You are not alone

I must go
I'll miss you so
My time has finally come

Oh, my lovers
Oh, my lives
Keep me in your minds

Don't despair
Don't chase the air
Where we once lived together

I have no regrets for anything I've done
I feel like I've lived as good as anyone
Remember me, remember me as best you can
So I might live, outlive my lifespan

Here I will lie
From where I sprung
The circle is completed

The earth is warm
How I transformed
And now I am defeated

I have no regrets for anything I've done
I feel like I've lived as good as anyone
Remember me, remember me as best you can
So I might live, outlive my lifespan
