dripping down your face We dont have to talk, lets dance For all the times you felt alone, dreaming better I see better, better days Too dumb to say goodbye thats some clich shit, make me wanna cry Just know that every time I look in your eye, I see better, I see better, better days
Try to remember, that you can forget Down with history, up with your head For sweet tomorrow, she never fell from grace We might still know sorrow but we got better days
I seen better ways, some wont believe But I dont need much more than faith For all the times you felt alone Dreaming better, dreaming better, better ways Too dumb to say goodbye, now thats some give up shit, make me wanna cry Just know that every time I look in your eye, I see better, I see better, better days
Try to remember, that you can forget Down with history, up with your head For sweet tomorrow, she never fell from grace We might still know sorrow but we got better days
Better days. Guess whos back in town. LETS GET HIGH Lets Get High High on Love
Bounce with the bigots in the north, got me rocking back and forth And the bigots in the south, dont you know itd make no difference to me Aint we all just Japanese when were high on love!
Now march by the terror in the east by the terror in the west God and Allah would be pleased, dont you know itd make no difference to Christ Were all Jesus in disguise, when were high on love!
I need love! I need your love! Yeah yeah, I need your love! Love! High on love
Now march with the lonely one percent, all they wanted was a tent To go marching with their friends, singing songs I say we let em come along, theres no protest theyre just songs When were high on love! Now march by the murder and the pain and the criminally insane Theres a grand ole jamboree, dont you know itd makes no difference to blood, Its all kung-fu in the mud When were high on love!
All this talk of whos to blame For your heartache and your pain Grab a mirror and some soap Now lets do the criminal
I need love! I need your love! Yeah, yeah I need your love! Love! High on love
Everyone love Everyone love
Help me to love them Everyone love Help to love them Everyone love Help to love them Everyone love Bigots and assholes Everyone love
Man in the mirror I am the prisoned man of single melody Two voices carry farther than me I seek your help so that my song may become free Two voices carry farther than me
And in the morning, sing me love And in the afternoon, its love And in the evening, if they love And in the morning, wake up
And if we sing together, love will sing along Two voices carry farther than one Together we can bridge a chorus to the dawn Two voices carry far.... all the days
Time and mind they melt away, like the stars and songs of yesterday Like the melody you cant recall, but the harmonies you felt them all the days
This song of solitude has sung its melody Two voices carry farther than me I seek your help, so that song may become free Two voices carry farther than me
And in the morning, sing me love And in the afternoon, its love And in the evening, is there love? And in the morning, wake up
Time and mind they melt away, like the stars and songs of yesterday Like the melody you cant recall, but the harmonies you felt them all the days
And if we sing together, love will sing along Two voices carry farther than one Together we can bridge a chorus to the dawn Two voices carry farther than one, farther than one, carry on And in the morning, wake up TWO Joy, joy is the giving give to everybody Joy, joy
War, war is the ego of mans repressed libido Love, love
Feel me love Hear, me love See me love
Please Please, please!
Love, love is the mother God, god is the human You, the generator
Please, please
Peace, peace is the giving A piece for everybody

Think Im tasting clean air Pouring through the win- dow Heading to the country, gonna raise a family there Im a mess like you wouldnt believe All the stress I had to leave Now bring me the country Yeah, Ive got to leave LA (moving on, moving on) This, where I was born All my life I called it my home Country calling, yeah Ive got to leave LA This place where I was born You know I called it my home Oh, country calling, I got to go away, away, away
Ill be your man with strong arms, hold on Ill be your man with strong arms, hold on
Love you, of you All I ask is here COUNTRY CALLING Life is beauty through and through Life is sunny, life is cool Life is even easy too But if my word is to be true Life is something to behold But if the truth is to be told Let us not leave out any part Do not fear, its safe to say it here You will not be called a weakling nor a fraud For feeling the pain of the whole wide world You want to help but cant help feeling you cannot And its killing you while youre just trying to smile from your heart So go on, say it, on the same knees youre praying Yes, life is hard
Come celebrate Life is hard Come celebrate Life is hard All life is all we are
Celebrate it in the sun, promenade it with everyone, elevate it in a song And Ill be there to play it, dont get me wrong When I feel like dying and being gone, when life is hard Theres just one thing, lets not forget Yes! life is it! Life is it, life is it, its where its at Its getting skinny, getting fat Its falling deep into a love, its getting crushed just like a bug Like theres no love, its getting beat into the ground Its getting lost and getting found, to growing up and getting round Its feeling silence, feeling sound Its feeling lonely, feeling full Its feeling oh so beautiful! Yes!
Come celebrate Life is hard Come celebrate Life is hard All life is all we are LIFE IS HARD IF I WERE FREE If I were free, I would run into battles with f lowers and hugs And bow at the boots of our well-oiled thugs Oh, if I were free
If it were me, I would yell out I Love You! to all I passed I would disrobe and disco and rip off my mask Oh, if I were free Id be the U that crossed the I to simply b Mining our ref lections at the bottom of the sea What did you see? I saw that you and I forever have been free The light become too heavy and I feel into a dream What did you dream?
I dreamed a wind that would sweep every castle made of sand Out across the ancient holy land Oh, if this were free If this were free, wed be free of the terror of the grave And fear masquerading as the brave Oh, if this were free I woke upon a pig of red, white and blue The circus got on heavy so we fell into the zoo What did you feel? I felt the fear that every queer does in his head First to starting over, I made sure I was dead What did you dream?
Swimming with ancients, laughing, tired of getting lost We took our left, remember, when we leaned upon the cross What did you see? I saw that you and I forever have been free The light became too heavy and we fell into a dream IN THE LION Na na na na na na na but I want to stay I feel the love, I feel the love I feel the love, I feel the love Na na na na na na na but I want to stay
In the lion, theres a heart breaking by the fire And in the fire, theres a flame that want to be the waterfall In the water, theres a fishy swimming by the lovers And in the lover, theres a tear that gonna be the inferno In the lion, theres a heart breaking by the fire But in the fire, theres a heat to enough to cage around your soul
I feel the love, I feel the love, I feel the power Its getting weirder by the hour The world is fucked up but I want to stay I feel the love, I feel the love, I feel the power Im tough enough to be a flower The world is fucked up but I want to stay In the lion, I was holidaying as a vegan I was eaten by a so sophisticated animal We went walking by the slopes of Killamenanjaro When the sparrow had to light a match to make the waterfall In the water, theres a pride breaking by the fire But in the fire, theres a heat to melt the cage around your soul
I feel the love, I feel the love, I feel the power Its getting weird by the hour The world is fucked up but I want to stay I feel the love, I feel the love, I feel the power Im tough enough to be a flower The world is fucked up but I want to stay
I feel the love, I feel the love I feel the love, I feel the love Na na na na na na na but I want to stay THEY WERE WRONG Here son watch the dog eat dog He spoke with eyes of the stiffest blue He peeled my fists, said let it go Saying hope like that and youll never grow
Ill go dancing with disease, darling please They are wrong Ill go swinging, singing peace, darling please They are wrong, I say they been here for too long - they are wrong, They are wrong.
So to my child not yet born Ive just one world of which to warn It lives in the mouths of choking dreams Sickness like that youve never seen
Ill go dancing with disease, darling please They are wrong Ill go swinging, singing peace, darling peace They are wrong I say they been here for too long They are wrong IN THE SUMMER In the summer, sister and your brother Contemplating god, out there on the sidewalk Eating ice cream cones ooh baby, more things to discover Masturbating to Miriam Makeba And Iko Iko Inay, ooh the sun is shining good Cant give us all your crap, youre not around
