Mimi Gets Mad

02

I’ll never grow up, I won’t try
I can live with that, don’t ask why
I am resigned that this is me
If I can take it, why can’t she?

03

I am bad at my best, but she will not accept that
I can’t get away with things I might regret
She makes me get started when nothing’s ever through
And I do the best that I can do but

04

Mimi gets mad when I make her wait
Mimi gets mad when I phone too late
But then mimi gets sad if I hurt myself
Can’t say that about nobody else

05

Someone should tell her honestly
She is a fool to count on me
I swore there would be no delay
I should have been here yesterday

06

So I sneak in the door and there she is again
She could squeeze off a shot just as soon as look at me
She don’t say a word and every word is true
And if that’s the best that I can do then

07

Mimi gets mad every time I’m wrong
Mimi gets mad when I sleep too long
But then mimi gets glad when I do my share
See no smile but I know it’s there

08

There must be a dozen other boys
She could give her anger to
I’m the only one, it doesn’t matter what I do
It’s not very pretty but it’s absolutely true
That I’m still the best that she can do so

09

Mimi gets mad

Monument

11

I got the message in my mailbox
Nobody goes to church no more
They’re closing down your little altar
They’ve locked the sanctuary door

12

Don’t fight it
Who can say that you didn’t try
Don’t fight it
Old soldiers never die

13

Where will I go to leave my offering
To think about how life’s so queer
And listen to the little choir
The sermon I don’t care to hear

14

Don’t fight it
Who can say that it’s not the end
Don’t fight it
And if we don’t meet again
I know somewhere a monument
Stands in the name of our love
Somewhere are monuments
Standing in the name of our love

15

I’ve seen such strange times
Seems like lifetimes
Sometimes good and sometimes bad
And I don’t see how it could
Have been much different
Everybody gave the best they had

16

More Light

17

I think the last time I was warm was in my mother
Now I’m listening in the darkness
But there’s nothing on the wire
I’m locked inside the refrigerator
So while I sit and shiver
I rub the sticks together
And if it takes forever
I will find my way back to the fire

18

Heat is not enough
More light
Love is strong enough
More light
Faith is not enough
More light
Everybody must be touched

19

I think that we don’t need another great communicator
And there’s a million extended mixers we are ready to retire
We all face obsolescence sooner or later
So while we sit and shiver
We rub the sticks together
And if it takes forever
We will find our way back to the fire

20

My Angel

21

Walk the line
It’s not easy
I must stand alone
It’s the kind of a life I’ve chosen
Right or wrong

22

I can feel
Near me always
Something to live up to
Someone to depend upon

23

When I have fallen from grace
When I grow weak from the pace
I can feel the breath of gentle wings on my face

24

And when the world closes in around me
Then my angel
Will come and roll away the stone
Like a hand reaching down from the heavens

25

And when the darkness falls all around me
Then my angel
Will come and draw aside the veil
I am safe in the arms of my angel

26

Anywhere
Anytime
In my mind I know
That a pair of sweet eyes is watching me
Wherever I go

27

Is it real?
Am I dreaming?
Sometimes I don’t know
But I want to believe it’s so
Let me dream on

28

Is it profane or divine
Am I insane? I feel fine
I can close my eyes but I still see it shine

29

Mystified

30

I’m sitting here looking at your picture
I see a light all around your head
You got a green I ain’t never seen
And what a strange shade of red

31

And everything is turning inside out
And something gets ahold of me
And turns me inside out

32

There is a place where the others go
You can forget everything you know
But every night is the same to me
Lying awake and longing to be

33

Mystified
Cannot help myself
Mystified
Could not stop myself

34

You got a wishing well in your eye
The surface starts to ripple
Pardon me, what might your entendre be?
I’m seeing double, sometimes triple

35

Every thought wears a thin disguise
It’s not a thing that I can verbalize
But if you knew what I was looking for
You’d get off your ass and walk out that door
Mystified

36

Last night I was laying down sleeping
You know I was dreaming all to myself
In the evening, darling when the sun goes down
Whoa! you know it’s mighty hard to tell
Tell me what more can a good man do?

37

You hold the world hostage in your mind
Standards and practices are well defined
But if you choose to walk a different road
Hold onto your hat, your head might explode
Mystified

38

Neck On Up

39

I gave the girls the eye
I’ve given lust a try
I’m just an average guy
From the neck on down
I used to have my fun
When all was said and done
I only wanted someone
From the neck on down
Maybe it’s one too many mornings after
Maybe I’m sick of my own nervous laughter

40

Now I’m looking for heaven
From the neck on up
For a perfect eleven
From the neck on up

41

I was a typical man
I had a master plan
I thought that heaven began
From the waist on down
And I had always said
That I could use my head
But I was thinking instead
From the waist on down
Maybe it’s one too many frozen shoulders or
Maybe I haven’t noticed getting older

42

Trapped in a dream
Something has to change in this endless stream
Of ships that pass in the night
Is this what I want out of life?
I want to know what this game is about
I want someone to try and figure me out

43

I can’t determine why
But I’m a different guy
Your modus operandi
Turned me inside out
It’s not that I don’t care
About your fine hardware
But you’ve got something else there
I can’t figure out
Maybe I just can’t finish what I’ve started or
Maybe it’s simply that I’ve been outsmarted

44

Now I’ve found my heaven
From the neck on up
You’re a perfect eleven
From the neck on up

45

One World

46

One world
Whoa, it’s our world
Yeah, yeah, one world
Whoa, it’s our world
Yeah, yeah

47

When I walk on the street I feel glad I was born
Music comes a’ringin’ out of every door
I see faces I know and they give me a sign
We got something between us and it feels all right

48

I see chrissy the clipper, she colors my hair
Micky and margaret make the clothes that we wear
And there’s gene who runs the club where we dance all night
When you live in our world everything’s all right

49

Politicians and dictators and the guys with the dough
They think they run the world but they just don’t know
’cause down here on the street we got it under control
From berlin to san francisco, from new york to tokyo

50

Only Human

51

It’s only human to despise the weak
It’s only human to despise yourself when you’re weak
I don’t know why
But that’s the way that it’s always been
And I play by the rules I don’t understand at all

52

It’s only human to be lazy and vain
It’s only human to expect a world that’s just as vain
I don’t know why
I want to believe that it’s not that way
But I’m johnny come lately, it’s not my place to say

53

There’s no escape, tell me why do they try so hard?

54

And I pretend that I’m invincible, that I can go it all alone
But I’m only human, trying to get by
And praying to heaven I might find out why am I human
Mere flesh and blood
Afraid to go on without someone to hold me up

55

It’s just a human thing to fear the unknown
But isn’t it a tragic thing to live and die alone
Oh lord look at the world,
Have you ever seen so much misery?
Like a ghost ship of fools, lost and floating out to sea

56

And they climb and they fall
Yet they struggle on the same fault
But they’re only human, trying to get by
And praying to heaven they might find out
Why are we human
Mere flesh and blood
We’re afraid to go on without someone to hold us up

57

Overture:Mountaintop and Sunrise/Communion With The Sun

58

Ra, climbing the horizon
Rising up the mountain, lighting up the valley below
Ra, giver without measure
Beacon of compassion, shining through the spectrum of life
Day is born, night is gone
One in all, all is one
Communion with the sun
Ra, ruler of all nature
Burning on forever, melting all together in one
Ra, holy synthesizer
Inspiration showers green and growing gardens of love
Voices rise to the song
One in all, all is one
Communion with the sun, with the sun
Ra, Ra, Ra, Ra, Ra, Ra, Ra, Ra
Ra, climbing the horizon
Waves of light come rolling across the floor of the valley
Ra, Ra, Ra, Ra, Ra
Lift your eyes to the dawn
One in all, all is one
Communion with the sun

59

Play This Game

60

I could be jealous and grasping with greed
I could pretend that I want something I don’t need
These are the things that go through my head
But then, I could be an angel disguised as a man
I could be the sun that shines in the midnight land

61

If you would only stand in my corner
Give that advantage to me
Don’t you feel something?
You know what I’m thinking but
I can’t set it free
We must

62

Play this game, take the prize
But not before you realize
That win or lose, it’s all the same
Then maybe we can play this game

63

I can’t remember the reason I’m here
Sometimes it seems like it’s all out of habit or fear
Sometimes I wish I could just go to sleep
But then, I’ll have a dream with a beautiful end
I’ll wake up and feel alive, then I’m off again

64

If I could only keep your connection
Give me whatever remains
Then I might win you total liberation
But I can’t break these chains
We must

65

Play this game
Let’s pretend that we could never reach the end
For it would be a crying shame
If we can’t learn to play this game

66

Stand in my corner
Give that advantage to me
Stand in my corner
Pull down a message with me
The answer that evades our brains
We only think we’re wearing chains
