Dog Train
Well this is murder
Yea, On the dog train
When all the brakes have failed
And I'm going down hill
And if you see me wave
Yea, I'm only saying bye bye
There's not a single tear
Here in my eyes
La, La, La ..........
And if you've heard this before
Yea, I'm gonna say it again
But life was easier when
I didn't have a clue
Because this is murder
I'm getting dog tired
Let's make the world brand new
How about you
La, La, La ..........
(I love this, I love life)......
Last Days Of Winter
I spy with my little eye
The sun shining brightly
The clouds rolling by
The last days of winter
Now seem so far away
And everything looks green
When it used to be grey
And I've watched the change
Like the changing in my mind
And I chased the leaves
Like the words I never find
Like the people I knew
Who I sometimes see today
Some still bright like fire
And some faded away
I turn on the radio
And someone's playing a song
I turn on the news
Hear what's going on
I turn on my back
When I'm full of beer
And I turn off the news
When I don't want to hear
And I've seen a girl who looks so very sad
Nothing left but a memory of all the times she's had
And I've seen a man who looks so sad inside
Nothing left but the memories from which he cannot hide
So I learned to fight
With a Weapon Called The Word
And I learned to rise my voice
So that I'd be heard
And I learned to fight
With a weapon called the word
And I learned to raise my voice
But I've never been heard
Carry Me
When you're standing by the road side
And it's a long way to go
Oh to carry me
To carry me
Carry me
Carry me friend
Oh to carry me
And together in this mad land
Far from the truest of hands
Well I'll carry you
If you'll carry me
Carry me
Carry me friend
Oh carry me
And we'll patrol bomb the state
We blow away the hate
But we'll do it in our mind
If we can take the time
We build ourselfs a road
From what we know
Each take our parts
But now's the time to start
Oh yeah it is
Oh we must be
Oh we must be
Oh we must be
But Jane is takin heroin
And Paul is getting pissed
Steve is getting stoned
And to fucked to fight
Sara's on the acid
And Sean has blown his mind
Someone's busy hiding
To fucked to fight
Yeah some have found religion
And some have run away
And some they form a party to find a way
Yeah some they join the system
And some just look away
But some must bite their backsides
To find a way
And there is a way Y
es there is a way
Yes there is a way
When you're standing by the road side
And it's a long way to go
Well I'll carry you
If you'll carry me
Carry me
Carry me friend
Well I'll carry you
What's In The Way
What's in the way, who's standing there?
Behind every gun, every last look of dispair
Well bring me a mirror and I'll show you his face
Give him sone peace and he feels out of place.
But he's not so hard and his time is short
Maybe he's just fooling with the time that he bought.
So lay me down
Oh lay me down,
Oh lay me down,
Lay me down,
Well he brings you famine he brings you war
His fear is compassion and his greed is for more
If you give his blood, show him love,
In a land without thoughts from "above"
You compete for the truth You compete for sanity
But you want hear a word
Because his conscience is locked
They've imprisnoed his consciense
No you won't hear a word
So lay me down,
Lay me down,
Oh lay me down,
Lay me down,
Well he brings you famine he brings you war
His fear is compassion and his greed is for more
If you give him blood, show him love,
Of a land withou thoughts from "above"
And he won't listen in the dawn.
So lay me down,
Lay me down,
Yeah lay me down,
Lay me down
