Synchronicity IWith one breath, with one flow You will know Synchronicity A sleep trance, a dream dance, A shared romance, Synchronicity A connecting principle, Linked to the invisible Almost imperceptible Something inexpressible. Science insusceptible Logic so inflexible Causally connectible Yet nothing is invincible. If we share this nightmare Then we can dream Spiritus mundi. If you act, as you think, The missing link, Synchronicity. We know you, they know me Extrasensory Synchronicity. A star fall, a phone call, It joins all, Synchronicity. It's so deep, it's so wide Your inside Synchronicity. Effect without a cause Sub-atomic laws, scientific pause Synchronicity..................................
Walking In Your FootstepsFifty million years ago You walked upon the planet so, Lord of all that you could see Just a little bit like me, Walking in your footsteps, Walking in your footsteps. Walking in your footsteps, Walking in your footsteps. Hey Mr. Dinosaur You really couldn't ask for more. You were God's favorite creature, But you didn't have a future, Walking in your footsteps, Walking in your footsteps. Walking in your footsteps, Walking in your footsteps. Hey there mighty brontosaurus Don't you have a message for us. You thought your rule would always last There were no lessons in your past. You were built three stories high They say you would not hurt a fly If we explode the atom bomb, Would they say that we were dumb. Walking in your footsteps, Walking in your footsteps. Walking in your footsteps, Walking in your footsteps. Fifty million years ago They walked upon the planet so They live in a museum It's the only place you'll see 'em. Walking in your footsteps.................... They say the meek shall inherit the earth.... They say the meek shall inherit the earth.... Walking in your footsteps....................
O My GodEveryone I know is lonely And God is so far away, And my heart belongs to no one, So now sometimes I pray Please take the space between us And fill it up some way. Take the space between us And fill it up some way. Oh my God you take the biscuit Treating me this way Expecting me to treat you well No matter what you say. How can I turn the other cheek It's black and bruised and torn I've been waiting Since the day that I was born. Take the space between us And fill it up some way. Take the space between us And fill it up some way. The fat man in his garden The thin man at his gate My God you must be sleeping Wake up, it's much too late. Take the space between us And fill it up some way. Take the space between us And fill it up some way. Do I have to tell the story Of a thousand rainy days? Since we first met, It's a big enough umbrella But it's always me that ends up getting wet.

Synchronicity IIAnother suburban family morning. Grandmother screaming at the wall. We have to shout above the din of our Rice Crispies We can't hear anything at all. Mother chants her litany of boredom and frustration, But we know all her suicides are fake. Daddy only stares into the distance There's only so much more that he can take. Many miles away something crawls from the slime At the bottom of a dark Scottish lake. Another industrial ugly morning The factory belches filth into the sky. He walks unhindered through the picket lines today, He doesn't think to wonder why. The secretaries pout and preen like cheap tarts in a red light street, But all he ever thinks to do is watch. And every single meeting with his so-called superior Is a humiliating kick in the crotch. Many miles away something crawls to the surface Of a dark Scottish lake. Another working day has ended. Only the rush hour hell to face. Packed like lemmings into shiny metal boxes. Contestants in a suicidal race. Daddy grips the wheel and stares alone into the distance, He knows that something somewhere has to break. He sees the family home now looming in the headlights, the pain upstairs that makes his eyeballs ache. Many miles away there's a shadow on the door Of a cottage on the shore Of a dark Scottish lake...............
Every Breath You TakeEvery breath you take Every move you make Every bond you break Every step you take I'll be watching you. Every single day Every word you say Every game you play Every night you stay I'll be watching you. Oh can't you see You belong to me? How my poor heart aches with every step you take. Every move you make Every vow you break Every smile you fake Every claim you stake I'll be watching you. Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace. I dream at night, I can only see your face. I look around but it's you I can't replace. I keep crying baby, baby please.................. Every move you make Every vow you break Every smile you fake Every claim you stake I'll be watching you. Every move you make Every vow you break Every smile you fake Every claim you stake I'll be watching you.......
King Of PainThere's a little black spot on the sun today That's my soul up there. It's the same old thing as yesterday That's my soul up there. There's a black hat caught in a high tree top That's my soul up there. There's a flag pole rag and the wind won't stop That's my soul up there. I have stood here before in the pouring rain With the world turning circles running 'round my brain. I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign, But it's my destiny to be the king of pain... There's a fossil that's trapped in a high cliff wall There's a dead salmon frozen in a waterfall There's a blue whale beached by a springtime's ebb There's a butterfly trapped in a spider's web There's a king on a throne with his eyes torn out There's a blind man looking for a shadow of doubt There's a rich man sleeping on a golden bed There's a skeleton choking on a crust of bread There's a red fox torn by a huntsman's pack There's a black-winged gull with a broken back There's a little black spot on the sun today. It's the same old thing as yesterday, That's my soul up there....................... I have stood here before in the pouring rain With the world turning circles running 'round my brain. I guess I always thought you could end this reign, But it's my destiny to be the king of pain............. I'll always be king of pain............................
Wrapped Around Your FingerYou consider me the young apprentice Caught between the Scylla and Charibdes. Hypnotized by you if I should linger Staring at the ring around your finger. I have only come here seeking knowledge, Things they would not teach me of in college. I can see the destiny you sold turned into a shining band of gold. I'll be wrapped around your finger. I'll be wrapped around your finger. Mephistopheles is not your name, But I know what you're up to just the same. I will listen hard to your tuition, And you will see it come to it's fruition. I'll be wrapped around your finger. I'll be wrapped around your finger. Devil and the deep blue sea behind me Vanish in the air you'll never find me. I will turn your face to alabaster, Then you'll find your servant is your master, And you'll be wrapped around my finger. I'll be wrapped around your finger. You'll be wrapped around my finger. I'll be wrapped around your finger.....
Tea In The SaharaMy sisters and I Have this wish before we die. And it may sound strange As if our minds are deranged. Please don't ask us why Beneath the sheltering sky We have this strange obsession You have the means in your possession. We want our tea in the Sahara with you. We want our tea in the Sahara with you. The young man agreed He would satisfy their need So they danced for his pleasure With a joy you could not measure. They would wait for him here The same place every year. Beneath the sheltering sky Across the desert he would fly. Tea in the Sahara with you. Tea in the Sahara with you. The sky turned to black- Would he ever come back? They would climb a high dune They would pray to the moon. But he'd never return, So the sisters would burn As their eyes searched the land With their cups full of sand. Tea in the Sahara with you. Tea in the Sahara with you..........
