THEY CAN CALL US TWO LONESOME BELIEVERS
BUT THERE’S HAS YET TO COME
YEAH, WE’RE HOPELESSLY UNGROUNDED
WITHOUT MUCH AND DESPERATELY UNDONE
LOST WITHIN A NIGHT TIME TO NOWHERE
AT A COST OF ONE’S OWN BLOOD
FORGET TODAY, TOMORROW AND NEXT YEAR
AND FALL HOPELESSLY IN LOVE
YES I AM A DREAMER
YES WE ARE A SUN
GOD I HOPE IT GETS US SOMEWHERE
IF TOMORROW EVER COMES
THE STARLESS SKY IS TAPPING AT OUR WINDOW
AND CRYING OUT OUR NAME
IT’S MOON SHINES A SLIVERED MIRROR
NEVER TO DAWN IT’S OWN DAY
IT’LL NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU
NEVER HEAR A SINGLE WORD
FORGET THE SKY, THE MOON AND HER SORROW
AND LIVE HOPELESSLY IN OUR WORLD

ON AMEL LOVIN’ TRANSIT HITS
DONE BY HARD-ON MOTORISTS
AFFECTIONATELY
(FROM A DOWNTOWN LANE TO A LIMOUSINE)
THE HEADLIGHT HALO TAXI CABS
BATHED IN PORNOGRAPHIC CASH
HER DIRTY KNEES
(WITH A PERFUMED SMELL OF GASOLINE)
SHE MOVES WITH MY MONEY
MORE THAN ANYONE THAT I’VE SEEN
SHE IS INSTANTLY CONNECTED
TO THE ONE THING THAT I NEED
I WILL ALWAYS LOVE TO LOVE HER
ALWAYS DOIN’ WHAT I CAN
SHE’S FANTASTICALLY A WOMAN
AND I’M TRAGICALLY A MAN
TRANSISTER
INTIMATELY FATAL
FROM THE LIQUOR LOVIN’ CRADLE
LAW’S A SAVAGE LOVE
(IN THE NEON BURNIN’ EVENING SUN)
THE CHANDELIERS OF RAINDROPS FALL
AS PAVEMENT TRADE WITH ALL IT’S SADDEST KINDS OF LOVE
(AND MADDEST KINDS TRAGIC LOVE)
SHE IS ALL THINGS ALL ABANDONED
NATURALLY AND IN EXTREME
SHE IS INSTANTLY CONNECTED
TO THE ONE THING THAT I NEED
SHE MEANS MORE THAN JUST MY MONEY
MORE TO ME THAN BUT A STAND
CAUSE I’M TRAGICALLY A WOMAN
AND I’M TRAGICALLY A MAN

I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO CALL YOU
BUT MY NOTHIN’, CARNAL-CASUAL SATURDAY LOVER
I LIKE THE SWEET SMELL OF STRANGER SEX
YOUR REFLEX IN MY HEAD LEAVES ME LIKE NO OTHER
I DON’T REALLY HAVE TO LOVE YOU BABY
THAT’S THE BEAUTIFUL THING
BUT IF YOU REALLY WANT TO LOVE ME
ONLY THE RICH WILL SWING
MY DIRTY LITTLE HABITS
KEEP ME CRAWLIN’ BACK TO YOU FOR SOME AFFECTION
SO PAY YOU UP AND LAY ME DOWN
AND DROWN ME IN ADDICTIVE BLUE INFECTION
I DON’T REALLY HAVE TO LOVE YOU BABY
THAT’S THE BEAUTIFUL THING
BUT IF YOU REALLY WANT TO LOVE ME
ONLY THE RICH WILL SWING
CURE MY LONELINESS WITH CARESSES
AND HEAR MY DESPERATE SIGHS OF CONFESSION
LOVES EMPTINESS AND WASHED OUT ILLUSIONS
I’M FALLING IN LOVE WITH MY FEAR AND CONFUSION
TO REALIZE A BASTARD LIFE
OF MISERY & PAIN & STRIFE
NOT FAILED BY ACCIDENT BUT DESIGN
YOUR LOVE FOR ME PORTRAYS THE CRUELEST KIND
TRUE LOVE L’LL NEVER FIND

OUR SECRET TWIST OF FATE CAME FAR TOO QUICKLY
A SILENCE THAT IS SURELY HURT WITH ENVY
IS DESPERATELY LOADED
IN A LOVER’S GUN
A FUTURE THAT WAS HOPEFUL
IS BUT NOW A QUIET CONVERSATION WITH A PICTURE
AND THESE MEMORIES ARE BURNIN’
BY A BIG HOT SUN
IMAGINATION IS DECEIVING
YOU’LL NEVER UNDERSTAND MY TRUE BEFIEF IN THE
LOVER’S WORDS OF PASSION
“YOU REALLY WERE THE ONE”
BUT IT’S A JEALOUS KALIFORNEA IN THE WINTER
THE DAYS WILL BARELY WARM YA
AND THE NIGHTS ARE ALWAYS SO MUCH COLDER
DESPITE THE DESERT SUN
I NEVER NEEDED ANYTHING BUT
BUT ALL YOUR LOVE
YOU WERE MY HEART
MY TRUE CONVICTION
SENT FROM GOD ABOVE
I NEED TO HEAR YOU SAY YOU LOVE ME
YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND
THAT JEALOUSY IS LOVE’S AFFLICTION
IT’S WHAT MAKES ME A MAN
BLINDED BY A VISION
IS WHAT MAKE’S LOVERS LAST DECISION
IF IT TAKES TO KEEP MY LOVE FROM LEAVING
KALIFORNEUM
SO REST YOUR HEAD MY DEAR, NOW THAT IT’S OVER
THE SANDS OF KALIFORNEA WILL ALWAYS WARM YA
THE NIGHTS ARE NEVER COLD THERE
IN THE DESERT SUN

I’m a day tripper
A krishna flipper
Hangin’ my head in outer ‘burbia
Better than this to be better than that
Mama leave me alone
I’m a lazy cat
Like a lava flow
I’d rather take it slow
Livin’ a life comatose
I’d rather sit and smoke
Maybe read a book
Gotta a serious dose of the
Heavy bones, Heavy bones
Some will call me slack
Don’t you gimme your jack
Make it rush, make it push
Give a heart attack
I’m a middle class, white ass
Motor crashed, junk trashed
In my blood flows the johnny black
It’s a mission
No competition
Everybody’s love is what I am wishin’
I’d rather sit and smoke
While I’m comatose
Gotta serious dose of the
Heavy bones, Heavy bones
It’s harder to get up than to get down

STANDING UPON A STORMY GROUND’
THE SMOKEY SMELL OF AUTUMN’S CALL
AND THE WIND BLOWS HARD TO PULL US ‘ROUND
FOR WINTERS BLANKET WON’T BE LONG
AS SLEEPERS DREAM OF STORMY CLOUDS
A FIRELIGHT WILL BURN A SHROUND
ON THE BACKS OF LOVERS TO KEEP THEM WARM
AND SHELTERS THEM WITH ALL IT’S LOVE
YES I’M HOLDIN’ ON
THIS I WILL REMEMBER
GUESS WE BOTH BELONGED
TO THESE MOMENTS OF SEPTEMBER
THE DAYLIGHTS WARMING SEPTEMBER MORN
A FROZEN WINDOW BEGINS IT’S THAW
SIMMERING COFFEE ON THE STOVE
KISS ME BAY, I’M SO IN LOVE
GOIN’ BACK TO REMEMBER
TO THE DAYS OF SEPTEMBER
THE LAST TWO DAYS OF ….
CHILL THE COOL OCTOBER SUN
FOR THE END OF SEPTEMBER HAS JUST BEGUN
COME COLOURS OF NATURE COLOUR US LOVE
WITH THE FALL OF THE HEAVENS FROM UP ABOVE
AS SLEEPERS WALK THROUGH STORMY NIGHTS
A CANDLE REFLECTS IN THEIR EYES
AND INTO THE HEARTS OF THE LOVERS’ DAWN
WILL WAKE THE FROST OF AUTUMN’S LOVE

YOU HAD COFIDENCE & GRACE
WITH A SMILE ON YOUR FACE
THERE WAS NOTHIN’G, YOU COULDN’T DO
I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER YOU
IN NINETEEN AND SEVENTY-TWO
IN THE PASSAGE THAT YOU MADE
FROM THE CRADLE TO THE GRAVE
THERE WAS NOTHIN’ YOU COULDN’T DO
I CAN’T NO, NO I CAN NOT FORGET YOU
IN NINETEEN AND SEVENTY-TWO
WE HAD IT ALL
WE HAD OPINIONS FULL OF POWER
WE WERE LOVE’S CALL OF GLORY
IN OUR SUNDAY NIGHT MOVIE
AND EVERYTHING WAS OURS
AND EVERYONE LOVED US NOW EVERY DAY’S PASSING
BYE BYE BYE
FROM THE JUNGLE TO THE SEA
AND THE SWEET SMELL OF VICTORY
THERE WAS A TIME, IT BROKE FREE
IT HAPPENED, IT HAPPENED IN ’73
BUT THIS IS ME & YOU
IN NINETEEN AND SEVENTY-TWO
IN NINETEEN AND SEVENTY-TWO

I WANNA GIVE BACK MY PART OF CIVILIZATION
TRADE IT ALL IN FOR A COUPE DE WHATEVER
AND A PACK OF CHERRY MENTHOL HOMEMADES
GRAB MY STASH AND LET THE REST OF THE WORLD WORRY
ABOUT BEING A FEW BUCKS SHORT OF AN INCOME
JUST REV IT UP, MAXIMIZE, UTILIZE UNTIL WERE
500 MILES AWAY FROM WHERE WE’VE ALWAYS BEEN TO
SAY GOODBYE
GOD, JUST TO FEEL THE HOT SUMMER EVENING TEASE THE
INNER PARTS OF OUR SANITY
THE WIND, YOU LOOKING AT ME, ME LOOKING AT YOU
JUST THROWING OUR HEADS BACK AND LAUGHING AT IT ALL
NO ROCK MUSIC
NOTHING BUT A FEW BARS OF NOTHING AND THE NICEST SCOTCH WE CAN AFFORD
PULL UP TO THE CHEAPEST TO BIT TWO BY FOUR SIDE SHACK
AND CATACLYSMICALLY BOUNCE OF OUR DESPERATION
SO HEAR WE ARE, TWO COMMON LOSERS
STUCK IN A CHEAP WHORE’N BEDROOM
AND DRUNK ON THE FUMES OF LOST INHIBITIONS
AND STEALING TIME, STEALING TIME, LOVE IS KIND
UNTIL THE MORNING LIGHT
RIGHT NOW LIFE COULDN’T GET MUCH BETTER.
SAY GOODBYE
