Be Safe

Be safe
Find your place
Crawl the race
Blinded in the rising sun
Haunted by a plastic face

Behave
Join the crave
Dance the rave
Believe a TV or a tomb
Not a mind, not too soon
The cow jumps over the moon 

The tracks, the tracks
The clickety clacks
The fickety facts 
The wickety wacks
The sickety, sickety ball sacks
The inches, the pounds
The greens, the blacks 
The browns, the blacks 
The reds, the blacks 
In gowns, in hats
In ties, in slacks 
On beaches, or in cul de sacs

Be safe
Buy your place 
What you're given, what you take 
All in prison, all eat cake 
All the people dead for Franklin's head 
Drink coffee then get into bed
Check your coat but never check your head

It's what it said
These words of dread
Those shaking til the baby's dead
Those faking til their face is fed
Those breaking til it bakes some bread
Those aching til the malls are bled
Those raking til the scene is set 
Partaking til they've cleaned the plate
Mistaking their green beans for brains

Impressing we must join the train
Suppressing til we're all insane

Mountin

Run down the mountain
Surmountin
Much harder than bouncin

The ounces
Keep me from the countin
An outing
Some shouting is better than mouses

People 
Mountin
Evil
Mountain 
The top
The stop
Be bop
Be countin 
But don't be thinking 
The clouds hide heavens 
They're below more mountin

Exploding In The Sound

Sa beatin, it's beatin, stop beatin, a beatin
Sa beatin, it's beatin, stop beatin, a beatin

Up is up and down is down
But up is much harder than down
It's not a frown, not all the town
But most of it

Morning is mourning, and yawning is warning
And all the police are paid to pretend
And all the small things 
Fill all of my head

Sa beatin, it's beatin, stop beatin, a beatin
Sa beatin, it's throbbing, stop eatin, jabbering, jabbering, jabbering, jabb--er--ing 

Up is down, is round and round
Exploding in the sound 
The help comes in the end 
Too late to make a mends
You don't know me friends
Ends, ends ends ends ends

Five Years Ago Tonight

Five years ago tonight
My life forever changed
Each flower sang new colours
The sky no longer greyed

Right when I saw your face
The ground beneath me moved
Realities of love and life
Came suddenly to view 

I knew, down deep inside 
My true love stood right there
I knew I'd never known or know
Another girl so fair

In every single little way
Unlike I'd once believed
Unlike I would have wished for
Beyond my wildest dreams

So know you are the one
And know that special night
Will always be the one when my life
Walked into the light
