Album – Adam n Eve – Lyrics
I Want To Live
When I look into your sad blue eyes, they whisper,
love’s been and gone…
it’s the end of the line, we’re wasting our time
I kiss you goodbye, now I can’t believe I ever said that
I would die for you, your eyes do more than kill…
I want to live.
All’s forgiven, so all’s forgotten, I’m empty inside,
What I’m trying to say since you went away, I live a lie.
I drink all day I’m never sober just to ease the pain,
These lies do more than kill…
I want to live… I want to live…
Like a ghost in my head you keep haunting me
Every promise we made, every word you said
I can’t live without you!
Baby baby, when lovin’ we were hiding
when lying we were brave.
Baby baby, I can’t live without you
all I need is you.
I want to live.
Falling Off The Edge Of The World
(With Maria McKee)
Happiness is a place in the sun
Says Dickie Boy with a warm gun
Charlie Darwin I believe you now
Put the monkeys in a uniform
Stormin’ Norman up on the hill
Twenty rounds with Georgie B.
Let ’em choke on coke ‘n’ oil
Sweet revenge just one calorie
“I’m falling off the edge of the world
AAH! Floating out to who knows where?
I’m falling off the edge of the world
I’m calling out… there must be something more?”
Babe, I’ll catch your fall.
I hear the Queen has a cowboy hat
Tea, crumpets, ‘Voodoo Chile’
Rock ‘n’ roll is a pussycat
Dead and buried in the U.S.A.
Cheap thrills, Cupid heartaches
Hooked on smack and daffodils
Candy Man, Candy Man can…
Shoo be doo wop.. his kiss can kill
“I’m falling off the edge of the world
AAH! Floating out to who knows where?
I’m falling off the edge of the world
I’m calling out… there must be something more?”
Babe, I’ll catch your fall.
See a vision of a world gone green.
Pop a pill with my Ovaltine
Call a priest, grab a crucifix
I’m not religious, I’m insomniac.
I close my eyes
It won’t go away
I dry my eyes
Big boys don’t cry
When the world is rock ‘n’ shake
I fall and break…
When the world is spinning ’round
I tumble down…
Hold me steady, hold me close
“I’m falling off the edge of the world
AAH! Floating out to who knows where?
I’m falling off the edge of the world
I’m calling out… there must be something more?”
“I’m falling off the edge of the world…
Ah! Floating out…”
“I’m out of here”…
King of Trash
Hey! Sugar Sugar, my sweet honey pie
Baby let me tell ya about the teenage lie
Your lips will be kissed, stories will be told
Just remember ‘sick sick’ all that glitters is gold.
He’s calling now, he’s calling…
and the song that he sang, meant everything
“King of Trash”
Me. I’m not young. Me, I’m not old
The revolution failed, so I’ve been told take me to the moon,
Me, I’d like that. I’m no prune.
He’s calling now, he’s calling…
and the song that he sang, meant everything
“King of Trash”
So pretty children it’s time for bed
Keep-a-dreamin’ dreamy dreams
What dies aint dead
“The King is dead his coffin a shiny black
six Angels they hang-out at his back,
two to sing, two to pray, two to carry his soul away…
He’s calling now, he’s calling…
and the song that he sang, meant everything
and the song that you sing, don’t mean anything
and the song, the song that I sing,
means everything
“King of Trash”
“The King of Trash”
Why Say Goodbye
OK! My shiny one, I’ve something to tell ya…
No secrets told, to a heart cruel and cold
I know it’s hard, let’s give it another try
You mean so much to me-like the stars in the sky
So why say goodbye? Why say no more?
Who’s right? Who’s wrong? I shout, you scream
What pleases the eye, plagues the heart.
It’s strange but true, we do as we’re done by
I’m sorry for what I said, let’s go to bed!
…The time has come to talk of things
Of shoes ‘n’ bells ‘n’ wedding rings
So why say goodbye? Why say no more?
Why say goodbye? Why say no more?
for I think it is love, for I feel it is love]
for I’m almost sure it’s love
So what do you know now?
It’s down to you and me, heart to heart
Why say goodbye? Why say no more?
Saint Divine
I’ll tell you now the story of a friend of mine
A small town boy named ‘Saint Divine’
At his red flamed hair they would laugh and stare
As he searched in vain for friends to find
His mother, father and brother too…
They told him “…we don’t see the world like you…”
So he blew a kiss, he waved bye bye
For love… it don’t live here
“All the tears he holds inside… he gotta go away
…are the tears he must hide…”
Looking for love…
So he goes to a big and bright city
Where friends ecstatic are never cruel
Forgets the clouds grabs the silver lining
The lipstick boy can boogaloo
and life is just one crazy ball
’cause down at King Tut Tuts he knows them all
but the queen is still a queer
and love… it don’t live here.
“All the tears he holds inside… he gotta go away
…are the tears he must hide…Looking for.
Looking for love…
All the love he fails to find…he gotta go away
…will his dreams run out of time?…Looking for,
Looking for love…”
Saint Saint Divine How you wear the woman
What one calls a sinner another will a Saint
Who is to say what is right from wrong
It’s Friday night! It’s time to party
The sacred cow can ‘bang-a-gong’
Sing you sinners, dance you Saints
Anyway your body ‘n’ souls inclined.
Laugh you lovers at those who hate
in each an Adam and Eve entwined…
Melancholy Baby
Come a change of weather, comes a chang of heart
Who will know when the rains will start?
My baby broke her promise, should I be upset?
Daylight says remember…moonlight forget.
Beauty disguises what it’s holding back
Some days when her eyes shine, her thoughts are black
Like a little child she can do no wrong
and I’ll pick her up each time she falls down
“Meanwhile Baby!… Oh! Sweet Baby!”
Night’s scent is her presence, night’s secret her face.
I speak when she’s sleeping, silent when she wakes.
Clouds gather and darken, our future foretell
Rains comin’ often and loves a brief spell
Like the saddest word, she awaits her song
and I’ll pick her up each time she falls down
“Meanwhile Baby!… Oh! Sweet Baby!
We’ve got a lot to learn about love in this life…
My Melancholy Baby”
In the palm of my hand, I’ll hold a little you
I’ll put you in my pocket when you’re feelin’ blue
Zing zing a zang go the strings of my heart
Cling cling a clang I’ll never let you part
Oh! Sweet Baby!
Fun and Experience
“…Here’s one for ya!…
…Woe! Woe! Hold your horses…”
The Boy Wonder
Everything’s in the belly or between the legs
A savage in a tin of fruit, your only man.
What’s the story? Jackinory? No, lead in the pencil?
Mr Shepard’s Pie- did you meet me middle eye?
I’m here to go, who’s the lucky one?
Get-a-load of this, it’s Innocence Bliss
An angel at the table- A devil at the door
He’d talk if he was able but his jaw just hit the floor…
“I could change the world for you. Romance the moon
make the sun shine… come on baby, please be mine…”
Fun and Experience
Love can be anything you want it to be
Fun and Experience
If you aint in- you’ll never win.
He hopped the twig, he legged the bed
Hey! Stop the lights…
Innocence left him devastated. She sucked him in.
She blew him out in baby bubbles, ’cause what goes
up gotta, gotta come down.
Her wee man in the boat was keepin’ the score
His wiggie in the middle couldn’t take much more
“I could change the world for you. Romance the moon
make the sun shine… come on baby, please be mine…”
Fun and Experience
Love can be anything you want it to be
Fun and Experience
If you aint in- you’ll never win.
The Boy Wonder’s… if she’s the cheese
or the cow on the box
“I could change the world for you. Romance the moon
make the sun shine… come on baby, please be mine…”
Fun and Experience
Love can be anything you want it to be
Fun and experience
If you aint in- you won’t win!
An angel at the table- A devil at the door
He’d talk if he was able, but his jaw just hit the floor
Yeah! Her wee man in the boat was keepin’ the score
His wiggie in the middle could take no more
Fun and Experience
Love can be anything you want it to be!
The moral of the song you can’t go wrong
If you don’t shoot your shot… she’ll love you not
So let her wee man in the boat keep a countin’ the score
But wiggie in the middle gotta give much more!
The Big No! No!
What is the truth of all that we know?
To hear the crap that comes out of the mouth.
The silent can say more… waiting and watching to see…
(I see)… what will be?
A hate… that goes by the name of concern
feel touched… stand and just watch the thing die
so mercy is money, I saw it on T.V. … come see it
on T.V. … it’s money not mercy
“Not for you! No! I won’t bend or change, the way I see
the world according to me.”
The Prigs… who think they are whiter than white
are sick… to judge by the filth of their minds
whatever your pleasure, a kiss or a blow, then go
or just say No!
In my face… “melthead” served up on a plate
What’s next? The best things in life are for sale.
We got it! (Yeah!) You want it? (No!) The singer can
sing (Wow!) The singer can sell! The singer can sell!
“Not for you! No! I won’t bend or change, the way I see
the world according to me.”
No! No! No! It’s the little “yes yes” or the big “No! No!”
(Day by day, day by day) “We love you so!”
(Day by day, day by day) “Oh! What a drag.”
(Day by day, day by day) “I don’t believe”
(Day by day, day by day) “So who are you?”
… Life goes on …
The little “yes yes” The big “No! No!” … sit right down
it’s the start of the show …
(Day by day, day by day) “Wow! You don’t say!”
(Day by day, day by day) “Oh! By the way!”
(Day by day, day by day) “Excuse me please, I have to go”
Day by day, day by day, Life goes on.
Where In The World?
The soul is up for hire, we sold out the heart. The truth lies deep under our skin, Bite the hand that gives, kiss the hand that takes. Where in the world can I turn and look to? Things never change they fade away. The Church of Love … it’s law and disorder. We’re meant to give more than we take. Calling Gods on high, it’s in your name millions die, Silenced those who scream, no golden cold image can redeem, The tongue tells lies, minds deceive. I turn around and see a finger pointing at me. Where in the world can I turn and look to? Things never change they fad away. The Church of Love … it’s law and disorder Where cheating hearts can kneel and pray. Put your feet on the water, play Jesus for the day… They say the times are a changin’, we’ve woken to our ignorance, truly I believe but I find it hard to see. Where in the world can I turn and look to? Things never change they fade away. The Church of Love… it’s law and disorder We’re meant to give more than we take. Where in the world can I turn and look to? Things never change they fade away. The Church of Love … it’s law and disorder Where cheating hearts can kneel and pray.
Wind And Rain
Wind & Rain. Ice and Snow
Winter kills we stay together
Wind & Rain. Ice and Snow
Someone speaks we wake up crying
Push aside those who whisper
never
for our love will last forever
The trees are bare. No birds sing
I want to tell you everything
The ice is cold. The winter rain
Seasons change- we remain
Push aside those who whisper
never
for our love will last forever
Hold me closer- kill the distance
Tell me everything
Hold me closer- kill the distance
I want to tell you everything
Push aside those who whisper
never
for our love will last forever
Hold me closer- kill the distance
Tell me everything
Hold me closer- kill the distance
Tell me everything
I know
I know our love will last forever
Eden
Blue sky the waters clear
Our love’s garden to tend and to rule
No fear mischief in the shadows waits
We have each other and time to kill
Eden.
We meet by the darkness the truth of our kiss,
One touch of skin commits us a new
Your moist inside, my ease so rich I tremble
the sweetest strain it tears me asunder
Eden.
A spell has broken outcast and in gloom
A waste so dry where is my love?
I wander lost a time that feels like hours
until I see a place that is green.
Eden
