MOONLIGHT DRIVE

Let's swim to the moon
Let's climb though the tide
Penetrate the evenin'
That the city sleeps to hide
Let's swim out tonight, love
It's our turn to try
Parked beside the ocean
On our moonlight drive.

Let's swim to the moon
Let's climb thru the tide
Surrender to the waiting worlds
That lap against our side.
Nothin' left open
And no time to decide,
We've stepped into a river
On our moonlight drive.

Let's swim to the moon
Let's climb thru the tide
You reach your hand to hold me
But I can't be your guide.
Easy, I love you
As I watch you glide,
Falling through wet forest
On our moonlight drive.

Come on, baby, gonna take a little ride,
Down, down by the ocean side,
Gonna get real close,
Get real tight,
Baby gonna drown tonight,
Goin' down, down, down.

TO BE ALONE

  To be alone
& watch the dawn
  It could create
   a silly song
About a girl
  I used to know

She was the star
  of the lost side show

She wasn't me
She wasn't you
Believe you me
Knew what to do

& say to a man on
the end of his tether
"Hay, fine handsome
Man, there'll be a change
in the weather"

So what am I
Supposed to do
Just sit alone
& chew my shoe
I need love
No more than she
& yet no less
& no regrets

If you can fill me in
on my Telephone
I'd be a sadder,
wiser son of a gun

I'll just this
about all that
I was the mouse
who caught the cat

I don't intend
To give you no points
of view

I just mean to tell
You - I'm alone

SOUL KITCHEN

Well, the clock says it's time to close - now,
I guess I'd better go - now,
I'd really like to stay here all night.
The cars crawl past all stuffed with eyes.
Street lights share their hollow glow,
Your brain seems bruised with numb surprise,
Still one place to go,
Still one place to go.

               CHORUS

Let me sleep all night in your soul kitchen
Warm my mind near your gentle stove
Turn me out & I'll wander baby
Stumblin' in the neon groves.


Well, your fingers weave quick minarets
Speak in secret alphabets
I light another cigarette
Learn to forget, learn to forget,
Learn to forget, Learn to forget.

               CHORUS

Well the clock says it's time to close now,
I know I have to go now,
I really want to stay here
All night, all night, all night

Let me sleep all night in your soul kitchen
Warm my mind near your gentle stove
Turn me out & I'll wander baby
Stumblin' in the neon groves.

WOMAN IN THE WINDOW

I am the woman
In the window
See the children
Playing

Soldier, Sailor
Young man
on your way
To the summer
Swimming pool

Can you see me
Standing
in my window
Can you hear me
laughing

        (woman's voice)
         (Come upstairs, sir
           To your room
            I will play for you)

O dreamland
Golden scene land
Try to sleep lamb
Take us to dreamland

I am unhappy
Far from my woman
Take me to dreamland
Land of the Banyon

Land of plentiful
Pleasures of pines
& potatoes on tables
Laden w/ good things

Eat at my table
She cried to the vineyards
Calling the workers
Home from the meadows

Manyou are evil
get out of my garden
ours is a good place
Home of the rain deer

Sell me your pony
Your fast golden pony
I need his strength
& his terrible footsteps

Riding the prairie
Just me & my angel
Just try & stop us
We're going to love

Open your window
Woman of Palestine
Throw down your raiment
& cover us over.

WHEN THE MUSIC'S OVER

When the MUSIC'S over, 
When the music's over, 
When the music's over,    
Turn out the lights,  
Turn out the lights,
Turn out the lights.

For the music is your special friend
Dance on fire as it intends
Music is your only friend
Until the end
Until the end
Until the end

Cancel my subscription
  to the Resurrection.
Send my credentials
  to the house of detention,
I got some friends inside.

The face in the mirror won't stop,
The girl in the window won't drop,
A feast of friends
"Alive," she cried,
Waitin' for me
Outside.

Before I sink into the big sleep,
I want to hear, I want to hear
  the scream of the butterfly.

Come back, baby,
Back into my arms.

We're gettin' tired of hangin' around,
Waitin' around, with our heads to the ground.
I hear a very gentle sound,
Very near, yet very far,
Very soft, yeah, very clear,
Come today, come today.

What have they done to the earth?
What have they done to our fair sister?
Ravaged and plundered
  and ripped her and bit her,
Stuck her with knives
  in the side of the dawn,
And tied her with fences,
  and dragged her down.

I hear a very gentle sound,
With your ear to the ground.
We want the world and we want it . . .
We want the world and we want it,
now, now, NOW!

Persian night, babe,
See the light, babe,
Save us,
Jesus,
Save us.

So when the music's over,
When the music's over,
When the music's over
Turn out the lights,
Turn out the lights,
Turn out the lights.

Well, the music is your special friend
Dance on fire as it intends
Music is your only friend
Until the end
Until the end
Until
The end.

THERE'S BLOOD IN THE STREETS

There's blood in the streets
    & it's up to my ankles
Blood in the streets
    & its up to my knee
Blood in the streets
    of the town Chicago
Blood on the rise
    & its following me

Blood in the streets
    runs a river of sadness
Blood in the streets
    & its up to my thigh
The river runs red
    down the legs of the city
The women are crying
    red rivers of weeping

Blood in the streets
    in the town of New Haven
Blood stains the roofs
    and the palm trees of Venice

Blood in my love
    in the terrible summer
The Bloody red sun
    of phantastic L.A.

Blood! screams her brain
    as they chop off her fingers
Blood will be born
    in the birth of a Nation
Blood is the rose of mysterious
                         union.

THE END

This is the end, beautiful friend,
This is the end, my only friend,
the end,
  of our elaborate plans,
the end,
  of everything that stands,
the end,
  no safety or surprise,
the end,
I'll never look into your eyes again.

Can you picture what will be,
so limitless and free
desperately in need
of some stranger's hand,
in a desperate land.

Lost in a Roman wilderness of pain,
and all the children are insane,
all the children are insane
waiting for the summer rain.

There's danger on the edge of town,
Ride the Kings highway.
Weird scenes inside the gold mine;
Ride the highway west, baby.

Ride the snake.
Ride the snake,
To the lake, the ancient lake.
The snake is long, seven miles.
Ride the snake,
He's old, and his skin is cold.

The west is the best,
The west is the best,
Get here and we'll do the rest.
The blue bus is calling us,
The blue bus is calling us,
Driver where you taking us?

The killer awoke before dawn,
He put his boots on.
He took a face from the ancient gallery,
And he walked on down the hall.

He went into the room
where his sister lived and,
then he
paid a visit to his brother,
and then he,
he walked on down the hall.

And he came to a door,]And he looked inside,
"Father?"
"Yes, son?"
"I want to kill you.
Mother, I want to . . ."

Come on, baby, take a chance with us,
Come on, baby, take a chance with us,
Come on, baby, take a chance with us
And meet me at the back of the blue bus.

This is the end, beautiful friend,
This is the end, my only friend,
the end
  it hurts to set you free,
  but you'll never follow me.
The end
  of laughter and soft lies,
The end
  of nights we tried to die.
This is the end.

L.A. WOMAN

Well, I just got into town about
             an hour ago
Took a look around, see which
             way the wind blow
Where the little girls in their
             Hollywood bungalows

Are you a lucky little lady in
             The City of Light?
Or just another lost angel
             City of Night
             City of Night
             City of Night
             City of Night

L.A. Woman
L.A. Woman
L.A. Woman Sunday afternoon
L.A. Woman Sunday afternoon
L.A. Woman Sunday afternoon
Drive thru your suburbs
Into your blues
Into your blues
Into your blues-blue Blues
Into your blues

I see your hair is burning
Hills are fill'd w/ fire
If they say I never lov'd you
You know they are a liar
Drivin'' down your freeways
Midnite alleys roam
Cops in cars, the topless bars
Never saw a woman -
So alone
So alone
So alone
So alone

Motel money murder madness
Let'
s change the mood from glad
                  to sadness

Mr. Mojo Risin' (4x)
Got to keep on risin'
Mr. Mojo Risin' (5x)
Got to keep on risin'
Risin' risin' (5x)

Well, I just got into town about
             an hour ago
Took a look around, see which

Are you a lucky little lady in
