The Real World
I saw the autumn leaves
Peel up off the street
Take wing on the balmy breeze
And sweep you off your feet
And you blushed as they scooped you up
On sugar maple wings
To gaze down on the city below
Ablaze with wondrous things
Downy feathers kiss your face
And flutter everywhere
Reality is a lovely place
But I wouldn't wanna live there
I wouldn't wanna live there
Weighed down by heavy lids
And lunar lullabies
I knew you were wide awake
'Cause you smile with your eyes
Downy feathers kiss your face
And flutter everywhere
Reality is a lovely place
But I wouldn't wanna live there
From the green belt balcony
The wildfires look so pretty
Ponderosa canopy
I'd never leave if it were up to me
To the ruby redwood tree
And to the velvet climbing ivy
Painted all mahogany
I'd never leave if it were up to me
If it were up to me
With a starry brush
Paint the dusk venetian blue
'Cause in the evening hush
You'll never believe the view
And when the leaves return
And their whisperings fill the night
They'll freeze and burn
Where fire and ice collide
Where fire and ice collide
Can you feel a silk embrace
In the satin air?
If we dissolve without a trace
Will the real world even care?
Downy feathers kiss your face
And flutter everywhere
Reality is a lovely place
But I wouldn't wanna live there
I wouldn't wanna live there
I saw the autumn leaves
Peel up off the street
Take wing on the balmy breeze
And sweep you off your feet
Deer In The Headlights
Met a girl in the parking lot
And all I did was say hello
Her pepper spray made it rather hard
For me to walk her home
But I guess that's the way it goes
Tell me again was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye
Didn't you know love could shine this bright
Well smile because you're the deer in the headlights
Met a girl with a graceful charm
But when beauty met the beast he froze
Got the sense I was not her type
By the black eye and bloody nose
But I guess that's the way it goes
Tell me again was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye
Didn't you know love could shine this bright
Well smile because you're the deer in the headlights
It's suffocating to say
But the female mystique takes my breath away
So give me a smile or give me a sneer
Cause I'm trying to guess here
Tell me again was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye
Didn't you know love could shine this bright
I'm sorry I ever tried (Deer in the headlights)
Tell me again was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye
Didn't you know love could shine this bright
If life was a game, you would never play nice
If love was a beam, you'd be blind in both eyes
Put your sunglasses on
Cause you're the deer in the headlights
You're the deer in the headlights
You're the deer in the headlights
Angels
Wake me if you're out there!
Through the glass in my bedroom window
In the bushes far below
I thought I saw an unfamiliar shadow
Among the ones I so clearly know
I've been sleeping with the nightlight unplugged
With a note on the rocking chair
That says I'm dreaming of the life I once loved
So wake me if you're out there
Living close to the ground
Is seventh heaven 'cause there are angels all around
Among my frivolous thoughts
I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts
So wake me if you're out there!
Wake me if you're out there!
In the dust on my cellar staircase
A pair of footprints followed me
I saw a flicker in the fake fireplace
Blinked again but there was nothing to see
I've been leaving all the windows unlocked
With a basket by the oak tree
'Cause I'll be picking up the acorns that fall off
If you'll be climbing up to meet me
Living close to the ground
Is seventh heaven 'cause there are angels all around
Among my frivolous thoughts
I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts
So wake me if you're out there!
I keep my knees black and blue
'Cause they often hit the hardwood floor (wake me if you're out there!)
And I believe so we're not praying to the ceiling anymore
I've been sleeping with the nightlight unplugged
With a note on the rocking chair
That says I'm dreaming of the life I once loved
So wake me if you're out there
Living close to the ground
Is seventh heaven 'cause there are angels all around
Among my frivolous thoughts
I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts
The indications reveal
That few of us realize life is quite surreal
So if you're dying to see
I guarantee there are angels around your vicinity
So if you're dying to see
I guarantee there are angels around your vicinity
Dreams Don't Turn to Dust
Splash down in the silver screen
Into a deep dramatic scene
I swam through the theater
Or maybe I'm just a dreamer
Like a kite in the bright midday
Wonder stole my breath away
Shy sonata for Mercury
The stars always sing so pretty
This picnic will soon depart
Real life, I'm sad to see you go
I'll miss you with all my heart
But I'd rather be alone
'Cause I couldn't live without
Sunsets that dazzle in the dusk
So I'll drag the anchor up
And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust
Dreams don't turn to dust
I made for the countryside
And my eyes never grew so wide
Apple raspberry river blue
I don't wanna leave without you
In the sound I'll gladly drown
Into the emerald underground
I rub my eyes 'cause it's hard to see
Surrounded by all this beauty
This picnic will soon depart
Real life, I'm sad to see you go
I'll miss you with all my heart
But I'd rather be alone
'Cause I couldn't live without
Sunsets that dazzle in the dusk
So I'll drag the anchor up
And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust
(I'm sad to see you go)
(I'd rather be alone)
When tiger eyes begin making you blush
And when diamonds boast that they can't be crushed
Let them go 'cause dreams don't turn to dust
This picnic will soon depart
Real life, I'm sad to see you go
I'll miss you with all my heart
But I'd rather be alone
'Cause I couldn't live without
Sunsets that dazzle in the dusk
So I'll drag the anchor up
And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust
Dreams don't turn to dust
Dreams don't turn to dust
I'll rest assured 'cause dreams don't turn to dust
Honey And The Bee
Don't remind me that some days I'm the windshield
And other days I'm just a lucky bug
As cold iron rails leave old mossy trails through the countryside
The crow and the bean field are my best friends
But boy I need a hug (Boy I need a hug)
'Cause my heart stops without you
There's something about you that makes me feel alive
If the green left the grass on the other side
I would make like a tree and leave
But if I reached for your hand would your eyes get wide?
Who knew the other side could be so green?
Don't remind me, I'm a chickadee in love with the sky
But that's clearly not a lot to crow about
'Cause when the stars silhouette me
I'm scared they'll forget me and flicker out
I taste honey but I haven't seen the hive
Yeah, I didn't look, I didn't even try
But still my heart stops without you
'Cause there's something about you that makes me feel alive
If the green left the grass on the other side
I would make like a tree and leave
But if I reached for your hand would your eyes get wide?
Who knew the other side could be so green?
We are honey and the bee
Backyard of butterflies surrounded me
And I fell in love with you, like bees to honey
So let's up and leave the weeping to the willow tree
And pour our tears in the sea
I swear there's a lot of vegetables out there that crop up for air
And yet I never thought we were two peas in a pod
Till you suddenly bloomed, and I knew
That I'd always love you
Oh, I'll always love you too
If the green left the grass on the other side
I would make like a tree and leave
But if I reached for your hand would your eyes get wide?
Who knew the other side could be so green?
If the green left the grass on the other side
I would make like a tree and leave
But if I reached for your hand would your eyes get wide?
Who knew the other side could be so green?
And if I reached for your hand for the rest of my life
Who knew the other side could be so green?
Kamikaze
The princess in her flower bed
Pulled the jungle underground
Where cherry bombs stain the blackbirds red
And explosions never make a sound
Oh comet come down!
Kamikaze over me
And I come alive!
My midnight melody
Oh comet come down!
My captain on a snowy horse
Is coming back to take me home
(He's coming back to take me home!)
He'll find me fighting back a terrible force
'Cause I'm not afraid to die alone
Oh comet come down!
Kamikaze over me
And I come alive!
My midnight melody
Oh comet come down!
Kamikaze over me
And I come alive!
My midnight melody
Oh comet come down!
Oh comet come, oh comet come down!
Brave down the open road!
Maybe I'll ride
And fight back the undertow!
To save my life
Bring in the ember glow!
Maybe I'll fly
And rove where you wanna go!
With the eagle eye
Brave down the open road!
Maybe I'll ride
And fight back the undertow!
To save my life
Bring in the ember glow!
Maybe I'll fly
And rove where you wanna go!
With the eagle eye
Galaxies
Call back the capcom
Tick off the time bomb
Let felicity fly
Armor the airlock
Blanket the bedrock
And kiss the planet goodbye
(Through the galaxies)
Dear God, I was terribly lost
When the galaxies crossed
And the Sun went dark
But dear God, You're the only North Star
I would follow this far
(Through the galaxies)
Fight back the flight deck
Bring on the breakneck
Cue the solar eclipse (sun went dark)
Summit the sunset
Dovetail the dragnet
And blow your backbone to bits (through the galaxies)
Dear God, I was terribly lost
When the galaxies crossed
And the Sun went dark (went dark)
But dear God, You're the only North Star
I would follow this far
Oh telescope, keep an eye on my only hope
Lest I blink and get swept off the narrow road
Hercules, you got nothing to say to me
'Cause you're not the blinding light that I need
For He is the saving grace of the Galaxies
He is the saving grace of the Galaxies
Dear God, I was terribly lost
When the galaxies crossed
And the Sun went dark (went dark)
But dear God, You're the only North Star
Hospital Flowers
I survived a dreadful accident
In the car crash of the century
My shattered hopes collapsed on cold cement
But in the back of the ambulance
I'd never felt so content
A high speed collision gave a new sense of sight to me
And now my vision can render the scene
A blurry image of wreckage and roadside debris
Happiness returned to me through a grave emergency
I tossed and turned in sterile apathy
Until the violets arrived for me
The bouquet burst and blossoms filled the room
And the place got smaller as they grew taller
And taught me to bloom
A high speed collision gave a new sense of sight to me
And now my vision can render the scene
A blurry image of wreckage and roadside debris
Happiness returned to me through a grave emergency
The curtains decayed, the daylight poured in
I was never afraid of the darkness again
My burns were third degree, but I'd been set free
'Cause grace had finally found its way to me
A high speed collision gave a new sense of sight to me
And now my vision can render the scene
A blurry image of wreckage and roadside debris
Happiness returned to me, happiness returned to me
Happiness returned to me through a grave emergency
Alligator Sky
Where was I when the rockets came to life
And carried you away into the Alligator Sky?
Even though I'll never know what's up ahead
I'm never letting go, I'm never letting go
Remember to breathe
'Cause it'll take your breath away
When the engines cough, and you blast off
Ignite the night with a firecracker flash
Remember to live
'Cause you're gonna be thrilled to death
When the stars collide and your eyes grow wide
Take it in with your breath against the glass
Remember to dream
'Cause it's gonna be a starry night
Over every town as you look down
So harmonize with the singing satellites
And remember to scream
'Cause you're gonna be lost for words
When the sparks erupt and they light you up
Dip your toes in the galaxy
'Cause it's yours to explore tonight
Where was I when the rockets came to life
And carried you away into the Alligator Sky?
Even though I'll never know what's up ahead
I'm never letting go, I'm never letting go
Rollercoaster through the atmosphere
I'm drowning in this starry serenade
Where ecstasy becomes cavalier
My imagination's taking me away
Reverie whisper in my ear
I'm scared to death that I'll never be afraid
Rollercoaster through the atmosphere
My imagination's taking me away
Let's hear it for the Universe
Where it never hurts
Diving in head-first
Take a taste of the melting Milky Way
And remember to laugh
'Cause you're living in a crazy world
Where you'll never guess what can happen next
Give the outer limits my regards as you float to fly away
Where was I when the rockets came to life
And carried you away into the Alligator Sky?
Even though I'll never know what's up ahead
I'm never letting go, I'm never letting go
Where was I when the rockets came to life
And carried you away into the Alligator Sky?
Even though I'll never know what's up ahead
I'm never letting go, I'm never letting go
The Yacht Club
My rock candy passion is bittersweet and armed to the teeth
'Cause she would rather fall in chocolate
Than fall in love, especially with me
I stood under the waterfall with a kiwi pineapple parasol
As Cinderella dropped the crystal ball
And made a concrete cavern a caterpillar concert hall
I wish that we could sail our sad days away, forever
In deep blue seas of paper-mache
(Let's dance in the moonlight)
A barracuda chased our dog days away, forever
Let's sink or swim 'till we fall in love
(And dance in the moonlight)
When we join the yacht club
I would rather go swimming with great white sharks than wade in romance
'Cause I can never find the courage to ask her to dinner
Or even to dance (Let's dance in the moonlight)
Don't sweat under your overcoat, 'cause my heart can't harbor this paddleboat
You'll hit the bottom of the highest note
And the chatty tree frogs will never want to leave your throat
I wish that we could sail our sad days away, forever
In deep blue seas of paper-mache
(Let's dance in the moonlight)
A barracuda chased our dog days away, forever
Let's sink or swim 'till we fall in love
(And dance in the moonlight)
When we join the yacht club
Let go of the world you know, and plug in the party lights
Soak your cares in the solar flares that light up these island nights
Orange eclipse, I can taste your lips in the citrus afternoon
If you can fly, don't stop at the sky, 'cause there's footprints on the moon
It was you
I wish that we could sail our sad days away, forever
In deep blue seas of paper-mache
(Let's dance in the moonlight)
A barracuda chased our dog days away, forever
Let's sink or swim 'till we fall in love
Plant Life
I saw a ghost on the stairs
And sheets on the tables and chairs
The silverware swam with the sharks in the sink
But even so, I don't know what to think
I've been longing for
Daisies to push through the floor
And I wish plant life would grow all around me
So I won't feel dead anymore
So I won't feel dead anymore
I saw a bear in the den
Reading my textbooks again
The bats flowed like traffic as they poured from the attic
Heaven knows I could really use a friend
I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
The trees keep the tempo and they sway in time
Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus
If I were to pluck on your heart strings, would you strum on mine?
I've been longing for (I've been longing for)
Daisies to push through the floor
(I've never really felt like this before)
And I wish plant life would grow all around me
So I won't feel dead anymore
So I won't feel dead anymore
Your spirit is sweet, so pull off your sheet
And give me a ghost of a smile
Show me your teeth 'cause you're a teddy beneath
So just grin and bear it a while
So just grin and bear it a while
I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
The trees keep the tempo and they sway in time
Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus
If I were to pluck on your heart strings, would you strum on mine?
The brook babbles on about nothing at all
A new leaf turns over, unwilling to fall
Tonight I'm busting out
Of this old haunted house
'Cause I'm sick of waiting for
All those spiderwebs to grow all around me
'Cause I don't feel dead anymore
And I'm not afraid anymore
I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
The trees keep the tempo and they sway in time
Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus
If I were to pluck on your heart strings, would you strum on mine?
