Lyrics

1. TITANIC OVERTURE

(Instrumental)


2. 10 MINUTES BEFORE THE WORM

Let me be
What a way for one to realize
Got away, so bored now, I seem
How he is so happy feeling sad

Everly depressed
Go die you
Think I will enjoy the view-oy the view-oy the view
Everything is standing still-ill-ill


3. SING LOW, SWEET CHEERIO

Forget remember nothing the force came from the flame
I pass along the path inside my light shinning always
Well get there first a name cried out then looked back all the way
Recall falling down a lot of time was spent that way

But this story staring me had already begun
Cuz I had some vision in my sight on the journey to be one
Help me help please help me please the screaming starts again
But the trick I find something hid you look you find I win

While working while the play was on the play was alright then
Think thoughst big thoughts take off and go back again next week
Right then my story ended and a new one had begun
Cuz I had some vision in my sight on the journey to be one


4. TODAY MUELLER

Today mueller let it happen happy slappin tappin paddy oh
Shed like to give her life away like to stay another day oh
Try it out another way

Oh today today today today mueller give your notice of your leaving
Oh today today today today mueller dont tell them you cant go with me
This will always be aah aah aah aah

Red rover red rover pass under pass over pass through
And over and over the White Cliffs of Dover with you
Today mueller make it happen


5. LIVING

Living is only one part of being
Believing is to know just what youre feeling
You werent supposed to think you know you heard
Im sure that youre knowing youre growing and its you

Thinking is your own world of living
Dreaming is the one way to feeling
Your wind and your eye can see everything that you
The only real person you need to know is you
Aah aah aah aah ooh living living living


6. FIELDS OF REGRET

Forever Ill enjoy you undertaking come to see you every day now if I can
Is it not the time for everybody I still wake on the fields of regret
There is something to this dream were all involved in can I see it can I say it may exist
Why then dont the night show really matters if we dwell in the fields of regret

What horror must invade the mind when the approaching judge shall find sinful deeds from all mankind
With death and nature in surprise behold the wretched sinners rise to meet the judges searching eyes
And when the doomed no more can flee from the flames of misery assist me while I die
Wander through those ever thoughts though if imagined but come down on its so easy to resist
Rest me hide my years upon the planet sound another no part over wont forget
When we laugh at the fields of regret


7. NO LONGER UMPIRE

Weve been so caught up in the subject of personnel
Playing and acting and slaving and bathing oursleves
Her lies and her tries to come over everyone
Painting a picture to show everyone in the world

Fearing is natural new names and places can bring
Build ups and barriers hiding behind everything
Her lies and her tries to come over everyone
Painting a picture to show everyone in the world

Aah aah aah aah aah aah aaaah


8. LEVITY BALL

I got my invitation to the annual levity ball
Seeing the location is within the mirrored room
Walking in my room I found I had nothing to find
I got into my evening wear and left my clothes behind

I sat down on the stairway seven hours at a time
Writing all of this poetry that I knew would never rhyme
The memory I knew I must have had when I came in
Was of some varied places where Ive never ever been

And then in came a cake all decorated in my name
With four paper brown candles are all spelling out this name
The clock was passing out from time to time I saw it all
The beginning of the ending of my first levity ball


9. B.B. ON MARS

Go now lets see whats going on see inside
Its right inside see now
Lets hear whats going on here inside


10. REFLECTED

Look upstanding with your head held high you will be reflected
You look outstanding with your eyes in disguise just beyond your glasses
Holy how he would keep its devine Im surely glad Im surely over town
And even though Im you will always here

Very rarely worry almost constantly could you be receptive
Our lifes outstanding in a shower please wet my skins a plenty
Baby what a day I love our town Im surely glad Im surely all around
And even since I knew it all so clear

You will be reflected you will be reflected you will be reflected
You will be reflected you will be reflected reflected


11. APPLE BUSH

October in a land thats in my back yard theres a people who succeed they dont try hard
Well theyve found a way to live with ease eating from the bush instead of the tree

Apple bush apple tree back to eternity find you a path and you buy with a car
Apple bush apple tree back to eternity cut you a path with a chance you may fall

Move over in a corner standing there tell my house they have to see it again
But my house doesnt worry its got a path of its own and a bush and a tree gotta leave it alone
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Apple bush apple tree back to eternity find you a path and you buy with a car
Apple bush apple tree back to eternity cut you a path with a chance you may fall

Someday like my house youre going to chose too ooh if you cut this new path well the old one will do
If you live with the people who live with ease ooh the red apple bush the blue apple trees ooh


12. EARWIGS TO ETERNITY

Oh four years long and oh what a sigh to hear my dear
Four long years now we stop to hear a whisper Alice Cooper

All of the time we have all of the time we have you
All of the time we have all of the time we have
We are throwing all of our hands so high you out there
Singing lovely dittie beautiful song for you to be aware

All of the time we have all of the time we have you
All of the time we have all of the time we have all of the time we have you
Youre the one youre looking for let me in let me in
Whos there whos there whos there


13. CHANGING ARRANGING

Aah aah aah aah aah aah aah aah ooh ooh ooh ooh
Im changing arranging things I never thought Id move before
Im changing oh arranging to your personality I asked for it before

I need a soul who never say what I feel just fearing that I will accept the ideal
I lick the pie and I sweat all I see its a carbon copy image of me
Im dying had trying baby baby for the rest of my life
Im trying had dying maybe maybe hes trying to be my life

Ive got a never ending battle inside just trying to rectify my personal pride
I swear I dont know what its got over me but I know it doesnt want to be free
