Metamorphosis
Birth to death
she set the table of his life
Spoon fork and knife all this and
More than words can ever say
But will she have me as I am today?
Run through the rain
You took a trip down memory lane but never again
She couldn't quite remember your name but I remember
A time when I fell gravely ill
And forced myself to take life's bitter pill
But that's all in the past
You are cold come in I'll warm you up
Cold and yet you'd rather catch your death
Staring into the abyss caused a metamorphosis
Went inside a normal boy woke up in a world so unkind
Better yourself
who wouldn't want to better themselves?
The deeper we delve
and put the other you on the shelf for good
The walls cry out the windows pain
All for the girl the doctors called insane
Went inside a normal boy woke up in a world unkind
Staring into the abyss caused another...
Heaven Or Helsinki
Left alone
In the snow
With the words:
Our land is strawberries
Your land is blueberries
Our land is strawberries
Your land is blueberries
What was found now is lost
Lost to time and nursery rhymes
Now I see the loneliness
Of this place and its race
Talking To The Flowers
Daisy, rose, chrysanthemum, talking to the flowers
For there is no one to listen, nowhere to spend my hours
Through the brambles dank and dour lie the broken reeds
All that remains of happier days, lost in my memory
(Flowers) I try... (Hours) pass by...
Friends and foes and family lived and loved and died
This is the forfeit of longevity when you're all that is left behind
Winter's woes are wearing thin, Spring could swing both ways
Summer makes for cancerous skin, Autumn shall bring decay
(Flowers) I try... (Hours) pass by...
Jack Frost is looming to halt Summer's blooming
Perpetually pruning the leaves, taking their leave
Now that I'm aged and haggard I stumble I stagger
I'm bent over backwards
The trees tremble and freeze
Saying to me, this is the Winter of our discontent
Daisy, rose, chrysanthemum, talking to the flowers
For there is nobody to bury me until the April showers
Miss World
To be the best in breed you must succeed
In every move you make tonight
Powder your nose, tailor your clothes
To see your name put up in lights
Surprise is in your eyes and in your thighs
There was no cellulite in sight
Oh so well groomed, with your perfume
You were the sweetest rose
(Miss World) You are Miss World tonight
No more a girl tonight
You are Miss World tonight
No shame, the quest for fame, is that your aim?
Or is it greed that makes you tick?
Faberge legs, the question begs
Is there not more to life?
(Miss World) Is there not more to life?
Or is it worth the strife?
Is there not more to life?
Miss World today, miss nobody the next
The price you pay is written on blank checks
We're holding hands, but no more than hands
Protective hands, for a thousand fans
Proclaim this girl as poker-piping hot
Pipe down, you're not, they've already forgot
Your name, your fame, so quickly on the wane
From A to Z list celebrity
Twelve months, they came and went, and those were spent
Almost reclusively
To whom, it may concern, our lady yearned
To be a girl again
(Miss World) No more miss world tonight
You're just a girl tonight
No more Miss World tonight
Black Ice
Asleep at the wheel
That keeps on turning
Painless steel
Rubber burning
Drive into the sea
That's the death for me
Drive into the sea
A sailor's death for me
Drive into the sea
That's the death for me
Tragic Roundabout
Oh Zebedee, you're running after me
The comic tragedy, you'll never catch me
A house of ill repute where lies become the truth
Provides forbidden fruit for friends without names
It's all fun and games 'til somebody dies
The parents cry he was out little boy
Well that could be him dressed in a disguise
Or it could be me so open my...
No, it only goes to show that what you never know
Is worth twice as much as all you see and touch
Two rabbits in a hutch if paradise is Dutch
Then Eden's a lie, a pie in the sky, a sweet lullaby
We're only human
We're only human
We're only...
We're only...
Oh Zebedee, a chronic symphony
Performing after me in key minor G
A shadow from your past, a snake within the grass
Residing in the glass of someone's champagne
Break another heart and stake your earnings on a horse
A loser of course
And if you think it's right
The consequences slight, St Anthony just might
Be someone to know
Oh he's in like a flash
On top of a spring with a curly moustache
She'll do anything for the man with the rash
And that could be me so open my...
Nauseous feelings are appealing
When you get that sinking feeling come down
Get off the tragic roundabout
