1. SEE NO EVIL

What I want
I want now
And it's a whole lot more
Than 'anyhow'
I want to fly
Fly a fountain
I want to jump, jump, jump
Jump a mountain

Lunderstandall, I see no
Destructiveurges, I see no
Itseemssoperfect, I see no
I see, I see no, I see no evil

I get ideas
I get a notion
I want a nice little boat
Made out of ocean
I get your point
You're so sharp
Getting good reactions
With your "BeBo" talk

Don't say unconscious
No don't say doom
If you got to say it
Let me leave this room
Cause what I want
I want now
And it's a whole lot more
Than "anyhow"

I'm running wild with the one I love
I see no evil
I'm running wild with the one-eyed ones
I see no evil
Pull down the future with the one you love
Pull down the future


2. VENUS (DE MILO)

Tight toy night, streets were so bright
The world looked so thin and between my bones and skin
There stood another person who was a little surprised
To be face to face with a world so alive
I fell
Did you feel low
No, not at all

I fell right into the Arms of Venus de Milo
I stood up, walked out of the Arms of Venus de Milo

You know it's all like some new kind of drug
My senses are sharp and my hands are like gloves
Broadway looked so medieval
It seemed to flap, like little pages
I fell sideways laughing with a friend from many stages
How l felt

Suddenly my eyes went so soft and shaky
I knew there was pain but pain is not aching
Then Richie, Richie said
Hey man let's dress up like cops
Think of what we could do
But something, something said "you better not"
And I fell


3. FRICTION

I knew it must have been some big set-up
All the Action just would not let up
It's just a little bit back from the main road
where the silence spreads and the men dig holes
I start to spin the tale
You complain of my diction

You give me friction
But I dig friction
You know I'm crazy about friction
My eyes are like telescopes
I see it all backwards, but who wants hope
If I ever catch that ventriloquist
I'll squeeze his head right into my fist
Something comes tracking down
What's the prediction

I'll betcha it's friction
Stop this head motion, set the sails
You know all us boys gonna wind up in jail
I don't wanna grow up
There's too much contradiction


4. MARQUEE MOON

I remember
How the darkness doubled
I recall
Lightning struck itself
I was listening
Listening to the rain
I was hearing
Hearing something else

Life in the hive puckered up my night
The kiss of death, the embrace of life
There I stand near the Marquee Moon Just waiting
Hesitating
I ain't waiting
I spoke to a man
Down at the tracks
I asked him
How he don't go mad
He said: "look here junior, don't you be so happy
And for Heaven's sake, don't you be so sad"
Well a Cadillac

It pulled out of the graveyard
Pulled up to me
All they said get in
Then the Cadillac
It puttered back into the graveyard
And me
I got out again


5. ELEVATION

The last word
Is the lost word
Why don't you say so
I sleep light
On these shores tonight
I live light on these shores

Elevation, don't go to my head

Now you give me no trouble
And you give me no help
It is the clown
That works so well
I sleep light on these shores tonight
I live light on these shores
Elevation don't go to my head
Our lips are sealed our breath is burning
These cold wild seas have left us turning
But I sleep light on these shores tonight
I live light on these shores


6. GUIDING LIGHT

Do I, do I
Belong to the night
Only, only
Only tonight
All the ladies
Stay inside
Time may freeze
A world could cry
All this night running loud
I hear the whispers I hear the shouts.
And they never cry for help

Tell me who sends these
Infamous gifts
To make such a promise
And make such a slip
Can't pull a trick
Never the rose
Without the prick
But tell me how do I say
I woke up and it was yesterday
Do I again face this night

Guiding light, guiding light
Guiding thru these nights

Darling, darling
Do we part like the seas
The roaring shell
The drifting of the leaves
All intent
Remains unknown
It's time to sit up
Up on the throne
It's seen before but it's always new
So look close and see who's come thru
Never again to face this night

Guiding light, guiding light
Guiding thru these nights


7. PROVE IT

The docks
The clocks
A whisper woke him up
The smell of water
Would resume
The cave
The waves
Of light the unreal night
That flat curving
Of a room

Prove it, just the facts, the confidential
This case, this case, this case that I
I've been working on so long

First you creep
Then you leap
Up about a hundred feet
Yet you're in so deep
You could write the Book.
Chirpchirp
The birds
They're giving you the words
The world is just a feeling
You undertook
Remember

Now the rose
It slows
You in such colorless clothes
Fantastic!
You lose your sense of human
Project
Protect

It's warm and it's calm and it's perfect
It's too "too too"
To put a finger on
This case is closed


8. TORN CURTAIN

Torn Curtain reveals another play
Torn Curtain, Such an expose
I'm uncertain when beauty meets abuse
Torn Curtain loves all ridicule

Tears, tears rolling back the years
Years, flowing by like tears
Tears holding back the years
Years, the tears I never shed
The years I've seen before

Torn Curtain giving me the glance
Torn Curtain bringing on the trance
I'm not hurting: Holding to the thread
Torn Curtain lifts me on the tread
Torn Curtain feels more like a rake
Torn Curtain, how much does it take
Burn it down

Tears, tears, years, years


9. LITTLE JOHNNY JEWEL

Now Little Johnny Jewel
Oh, he's so cool
He has no decision
He's just trying to tell a vision
Some thought that this was sad
And others thought it mad
They just scratching the surface
JJ can do the floor kiss
Was he on display
No, no, not today

All that guy ever said
He said, "I want my little wing-head
He half-asleep at night
Over his head, sensation of flight
And he wake up dreaming
Dreaming
And he run down to the airport
The rush, the roar
And he crouched down behind a fence
With a chest full of lights
Then
He loses his senses

Oh Little Johnny Jewel
He's so cool
But if you see him looking lost
You ain't gotta come on so boss!
And you know that he's paid
You know that he's paid the price
All you gotta do for that guy
Is wink your eye
