Train I Ride
04:43

Every night I’m going back
Every night to a one horse town
It's a railroad and a crossroad
Yeah a railroad track
Every night there’s a train I ride
Train I Ride
Two lovers were to meet on that day
They were lovers though they were just fifteen
He was waiting, still waiting, by the railroad track
Every night there’s a train I ride
Train I Ride
But her mother let her leave that day
She once waited for a boy who never came
She was waiting, still waiting by the railroad track
Every night there’s a train I ride
Train I Ride
You might see it as you’re rushing by
It's a railroad and a crossroad
It's a railroad track
He was waiting, still waiting by the railroad track
Every night there’s a train I ride
Train I Ride
Train I ride
One horse town
Railroad track
Going back
Train I Ride

Love you Jezebel
Hips as hot as Hell
Drink those lips as well
Love you Jezebel
and I think you can tell
I don't hide it so well
I think you can tell
My Jezebel
Jezebel in the tower
Jezebel every hour
All the peasants in the street
Silhouette in the Tower
My Jezebel

Cosmic Love
You & me in harmony
With destiny
Together
You & me in harmony
With the cosmic sea
Forever
You & me in harmony
With poetry mythology sexuality
together
You & me in harmony
With the cosmic sea
Forever
Love Love Love together
Love Love Love Forever ever ever
Like sailors from lands afar
We’ll guide ourselves by the stars
Together
We’ll sail the coast of Africa, Ethiopia
forever
We’ll climb upon the ancient shore
Naked as the day we’re born
Together
We’ll climb a stairway to the stars
Forever ever ever
Love Love Love together
Love Love Love forever
Love love love together
Love Love Love forever
Love Love Love together
Love Love Love forever
Love love love together
Love Love Love forever-ever – ever- ever

Anybody Seen My Girl
03:09
|
|||
Went to Lake Umbitar
Met a cat who played guitar
Sang so softly in my ear
She passed this way late last year
I know that I’ve been looking round
Not a sight or a sound
Travelled the world Over hill
thought I saw but she’s still
Has
Anybody seen my
Girl
Smoky night by the docks
Looking out for danger sharks
Met a sailor with an old tattoo
That resembled you
I know that I’ve been looking round
Not a sight and not a sound
Travelled the world and up some hills
Thought I saw her but she’s still
Has
Anybody seen my
Girl

One time you wake up and discover
that you're lying in a bean bag!
You're in a Big house,
in a big loungeroom.
And, judging by the light creeping in the window,
it's about 4 or 5 in the morning!
Empty bottles thrown about
Cheese and crackers and dips used as ashtrays
Intimate clothing strewn about
A lampshade gone awry
Where am I?
Is this my house?
Whose house is this?
When you gotta go
You gotta go
Make sure you gotta go
Real slow
Stand up!
Well you decide
to get up out of that bean bag
and make your way to the front door.
But when you go to move you discover that your legs are filled with concrete.
They are heavier than the columns out front the National Department of Defence
You look down
A tom tom drum
arrives playing in your head
A bird cage that hasn't been cleaned in two years
moves into the roof of your mouth
Hey, it's time to go
It's time to do
the limbo
the hokey pokey
Do the limbo
Mind how you go
When you gotta go
You gotta go
Make sure you gotta go
Real slow
Stand up!
Stand up you fool
Can't you walk?
Lift those legs, come on
Do the hokey pokey, it's time to go
What did they put in that drink?
What did they put in that drink?
What did they put in that drink?
Whose house is this?
Did i go to some swingin' suburban party last night?
What did they put in that drink?
When you gotta go
You gotta go
Make sure you gotta go
Real slow
Stand up!
and walk
That's alright for you to say
I can't move legs!
Maybe if i crawled all the way to the built in robes
and locked myself in the cupboard and climbed up the walls;
maybe I'd be surrounded by golf slacks, personal organisers, master chef kitchens ,suburban art and decking
What did they put in that drink?
Is there any train station in this suburb, I dunno...?
When you Gotta go
You gotta go
Make sure you gotta go
Real slow
Stand up!

People Get Out
05:01

Take a train
Take a bus
take a boat
If you must
Ride a bike
You can hike
If you like
Take a car
Take a cab
Grab your hat
Look at that
Walk a mile
in their shoes
Overnight
Where to?
People get Out
if you can
you can ride
you can walk
Take a boat
if it floats
buy a gun
for your son
from a man
in a van
Take a train
ride a bike
in the rain
if you like
Walk a mile
in their shoes
overnight
Where to?
People get out
People get out
People get out
Take a car
Take a cab
Grab your hat
Thats that
change your life
for your wife
for a stash
of cash
People get out
People get out
People get out
I hear the people running
every night
Say to their children
It's alright

Into My Room
05:55
|

Waiting, waiting
Anticipating
Not knowing
yr showing
Feel the floor
Hear the door
Watch her crawl
Outside
new morning
is dawning
moon retreating
verandah creaking
Feel the floor
Hear the door
Watch her crawl
Could anyone ask for more?
You came into my room
Silently creeping
You came into my room
You came into my room
Silently creeping
You came into my room
You came into my room

I GO WILD
Head out for the weekend
Where hungry hippos roam
Head out for the wild zone
a hundred miles from your home
Sleep on a savanna
Chew on a goanna
Do the mozzie rhumba
Hippos got yr number
I hear jungle drums in foreign tongues
I hear jungle drums in foreign tongues
I go w-w-w-w-w-wild
W-w-w-w-w-wild
Sleep on the savannah
Win yourself bandanna
Natives seem so restless
I guess they must be paid less
Hippos got your number
Do the booga rhumba
Hunting lodge has wifi
Cry freedom, colonial cry
I hear jungle drums in foreign tongues
I hear jungle drums in foreign tongues
I go w-w-w-w-w-wild
w-w-w-w-w-wild
INSTRUMENTAL 'IN THE JUNGLE'
White hunter
Black Heart
Lions breath
tiger face
animal skin
In the jungle
the mighty jungle
I hear jungle drums in foreign tongues
I hear jungle drums in foreign tongues
I go w-w-w-w-w-wild
W-w-w-w-w-wild
I go w-w-w-w-w-wild
I hear jungle drums in foreign tongues
I hear jungle drums in foreign tongues
I go w-w-w-w-w-wild
W-w-w-w-w-wild

Verse 1:
When I see you walking down the street with some one else
I don’t know why
but I cry
CHORUS:
Cry
I don’t why
but I cry
Verse 2:
When I found the letter that you wrote between yourselves
That you wd run away with our child
(Middle 8)
Rain's a gunna come
Wind's a gunna blow
Sun's a gunna shine
flower's gunna grow
