LYRICS
Intercontinentally it’s the finest thing you’ll get for free
It not coincidentally under hats, under wraps for my friends and me
Heart shaped devices get twisted to define
Taking on a shape, taking a shine
Hats off to kistory, loving is divine
It doesn’t really matter if a girl or a boy you be
It goes beyond a scatter for my girls and my wife and my family
Revising logic and memory and time
Breaking every rule, holding a line
Hats off to kistory, loving is divine….and mine….push it!
It’s found the whole world over, call it love, call it lust, call it like for 3
Dunbeath to Dundee Doveroverland in the sky and across the seas
Hearts shape the logic to make us hold a line
Taking on a shape, taking a shine
Hats off to kistory, loving is divine….and sublime

My Dog
03:21
|

LYRICS
Oh woe what’s done is done
I call my brother but he won’t come
He’s not sleeping, he’s just gone
What hope then for a sinking son
For it’s cold and so dark down here
And come to stay I fear
This time my heart is truly broken
I move quietly and so slow
You fear a memory that I sometimes show
I am helpless and guilt and rain
The weight crushing your parade again
We are cold for it’s so dark down here
And come to stay I fear
This time our hearts are truly broken
The mud is deep
My legs are tired
As feelings sleep
As hearts are mired
The dog he looks
He turns and then
The dog he turns away again.............

Parachute
04:49
|
|||
LYRICS
The background noise suspends my self belief
Our landscape moves to blurred from sharp relief
My task was having everything in place
Before the parachute opens
Young altitude drops through the purest air
A mile a year brings on a quiet despair
How long it takes us all to realise
Before the parachute opens
A hug, resolve, as hopes revolve and flee
A kiss, in turn, I see, I yearn through thee
After the parachute opens
A mixed return, some grave concern and me
No lightning bolt, no love, no jolt...............just me
Are feet then fixed to stage a final scene?
With dwindled cast if you know what I mean?
The background noise extends my disbelief
Maybe my parachute’s broken?

Uncommon Angel
02:25
|
|||
LYRICS
She has her breakfast at a quarter to five
Ask anyone she doesn’t know she is alive
Don’t you wish that we could be so sinful?
She takes us shopping on a second hand street
She cuts her hair long and she loves to eat meat
Don’t you wish that we could feel so alive?
Try having breakfast at a quarter to five
She’s all made up for my cynical mind
There’s no uncommon girl
I could go blind
She takes us dancing weekends under her wing
Takes common angels and she teaches them to sing
“Farmer John” I wish I felt so alive
I’m having breakfast at a quarter to five
She’s all made up for my cynical mind
There’s no uncommon girl
I could go blind
She’s having breakfast at a quarter to five
Meet me for breakfast at a quarter to five

Mercy
02:11
|
|||
LYRICS
Coughing crying a girl who can
Take my breath
‘Come home daddy’ by phone tonight
What a commotion in the morning
But in the morning..
Love love as love has gone
I’m not the only one
Screaming mercy
She’s for the lions share
But I can’t be everywhere
Screaming mercy
Coughing crying a stupid man
Take my breath
‘Come home daddy’ alone tonight
We’ll build a glider in the morning
But in the morning..
Love love as love has gone
I’m not the only one
Screaming mercy me
She’s for the lions share
But I can’t be everywhere
Screaming mercy
Screaming mercy me
Screaming mercy

Real Wood People
02:58
|
|||
LYRICS
Real wood people here to love and unfurl
I can’t imagine a more beautiful world
A certain nature makes you do what you do
I’m going camping under blankets with you
Let’s all make headway holding candles for light
I’ll make my friends of you and sleep well tonight
Real wood people planted holding your ground
You can’t imagine all the hope I have found
The world has fallen to the poorest repair
Move every child up to the mountains for air
Let’s all make headway pushing loved ones in carts
I’ll make my friends of you at least that’s a start
Real wood people always stay til the end
I can’t imagine a more beautiful friend
Steadily branching like a perfect disease
Let’s all go planting loving family trees
And all make headway holding candles for light
I’ll make my friends of you and sleep well tonight
I want to live with you, I want to give with you

Family Bird
02:48
|
|||
LYRICS
All my life I will pass to you
The tall girl and the small one too
Both maybe moving to your sisters scene
When dad is low on gasoline
All my life maybe I’ve been wrong
Coloured crayons and just singing songs
Dating girls in a headstrong flight
But family first and the rest will be alright
There’s no solitary family bird
Sitting in this family tree
A kiss for your sister and from what you’ve heard
You know I’ll never leave it be…..my girls, my loves
All your lives I’m the background noise
Holding your hands and dismissing boys
Our hearts so fickle what a father sees
A plugged nickel on a bended knee
So from my life let me pledge to you
Any old lesson that you want me to
For broken hearts, hurting’s not so wrong
Hold on to me and it won’t be long for long
There’s no solitary family bird
Sitting in this family tree
A kiss for your sister and from what you’ve heard
You know I’ll never leave it be…..my girls, my loves

Poor Spy
02:58
|
|||
LYRICS
Take my name and write it down
Forget me not and frown, we are bleeding
My love, crying for the blame
Shiver me for shame, I am needing
And I am digging in a hole
I’ve given up my soul, I am burning
Hey ma, I’m looking for a home
Can you heal me?
Bless the heart upon your sleeve
Apple and believe, we are turning
My love, there’s nothing to be done
The rain put out the sun, but I’m learning
Here I am filling in a hole
I’m taking back my soul, I am burning
Hey ma, I’ve found another home
Can you feel me?
Imprinted on my mind
Life becomes a kind of blue.
Then you stumble over one
Destined to become true, you.
Now I am filling in the hole
I’ve taken back my soul, I am burning
My love, I’ve found another home
Can you feel me?

Friendly Friendly
03:52
|
|||
LYRICS
Way beyond the point of mending
Way beyond the call of duty
Somebody’s making a fuss over losing beauty
She says if you’ll be the one who’s sending
I’ll be the big receiver
And drop my guard to become a true believer
It’s nothing very revolutionary
But leaves you feeling quite extraordinarily
Friendly, friendly
We’re fighting off the force of habit
And making seperate arrangements
And filling your diary with alternative engagements
I said if you’ll be the one who’s bending
I’ll make the big confession
And hold on tight for the first friendly concession
It’s nothing very revolutionary
But leaves you feeling quite extraordinarily
Friendly, friendly
Bring round a bottle and we’ll both get tight
I’m gonna sing all night
She’s my friend, she’s my very fine friend

LYRICS
Take me to heart
Take me to bed
I won’t say a word love
Follow me through
Inside my head
I make you my world love
Two kinds of hurt leave from under a sheet
One has to go, the other can’t eat
You made the time
Life is complete
Darlin’ suppertime
Promising you
Life is complete
Darlin’ suppertime
