WATCH OUT NOW
TAKE CARE BEWARE
Of thoughts that linger
Winding 'round inside your head
And the pain that often lingers
In the dead of night
In the dead of night
Beware of darkness

WATCH OUT NOW
TAKE CARE BEWARE
Of greedy leaders
Who take you where you should not go
While weeping at the cedars
In the dead of night
In the dead of night
Beware of sadness

It can kill you
It can hurt you
Make you sore
And what is more
That is not what you are here for

WATCH OUT NOW
TAKE CARE BEWARE
Of soft shift shufflers
They're dancin' down the sidewalk
While each unconscious sufferer
Wanders aimlessly
In the dead of night
Beware of darkness - It can kill you
Beware of darkness - It can cut you down
Beware of darkness

Thoughts are thinking
Thoughts are coming
Thoughts are screaming
Thoughts keep coming
Thoughts are coming
Thoughts are coming down

Thoughts are thinking; Thunk from knowing
Thoughts repeating; Harm is showing
Thoughts forever keep me going down

I thought my time was almost done

I thought I knew which way to run

I thought of how this began

I thought of where to go for lunch

I thought I'd give her what she wants

I thought the dream makes the man

Bats are crawling on my skin
I hear blood-letting thoughts beginning now

The more I try to not give in
The more I think my thoughts are winning now

Thoughts are thinking
Thoughts are coming
Thoughts are screaming
Thoughts keep coming
Thoughts are coming
Thoughts are coming down

I thought oh man, this gig is long
I thought my drink was much too strong
I thought he spoke much too fast
I thought they make me sick
I thought please death come quick
I thought it's too good too last

Our eyes are one; I tunnel in
I hear pathetic thoughts beginning now

Thoughts are thinking
Thoughts are coming
Thoughts are screaming
Thoughts keep coming

The more I try to not give in
The more I think my thoughts are winning now

Thoughts are thinking
Thoughts are coming
Thoughts are screaming
Thoughts keep coming
Thoughts are coming
Thoughts are coming down

Thoughts are thinking; Thunk from knowing
Thoughts repeating; Harm is showing
Thoughts forever keep me going down

Thoughts are like black ravens in the sky
Thoughts will be forever floating by...
Why?...

I thought at last my love at last!
I thought let's go out and get trashed
I thought let's break what we planned
I thought we punish for the crime
I thought we're running out of time
I thought the dream makes the man

Bats are crawling on my skin
I hear blood-letting thoughts beginning now

Thoughts are thinking
Thoughts are coming
Thoughts are screaming
Thoughts keep coming
Thoughts are coming
Thoughts are coming down

Thoughts are thinking; Thunk from knowing
Thoughts repeating; Harm is showing
nwod gniog em peek reverof sthguohT

Thoughts are screaming; Thoughts are coming
Thoughts forever will keep COMING

Out there where we're living on the dark side of the day
Something's in our way
What is hard to say
Rushing in and out like players in a phantom band
Life is out of hand
As night falls on the land

Time will not begin - It's in your mind
We'll get out when we get in
Shadows on the wind they touch the sky
We'll be walking on the wind
We'll be walking on [walking on] the wind

Guessing games are over - We can't answer number one
We crawl and then we run
And everything's been done
Laugh or cry; live or die - I been somewhere in between
The pissant and the king
Still the crowd will sing

Time will not begin - It's in your mind
We'll get out when we get in
Shadows on the wind they touch the sky
We'll be walking on the wind
We'll be WALKING ON [walking on] THE WIND

To know it in your bones
That time will come to pass
And time will never save you from your past

Here where are living on the dark side of the day
Something's in our way
What is hard to say
The lost, the undiscovered will all be close at hand
When night falls on the land
All will understand

We will dance upon the water
We will walk upon the wind
We will tear down all the borders
Let the holy time begin

We will walk upon the wind
We will tear down all the borders
We will walk upon the wind

Some people are like gravy
Spilled on God's Sunday shirt
Some people are always getting better
Some people just get worse

Some people only waste so long before they waste away
Some people only waste so long until they waste away
Waste away now

Some people think they're dangerous
Well maybe just to little boys
some people always reaching for the sky
As if they had a choice

Some people only waste so long before they waste away
Some people only waste so long before they waste away
Waste away now

And I want to know
And I don't want to hear them cry
So I gotta go man I gotta go
I gotta go now

Some people think they're lucky
Like they thought of heaven first
Some people been holdin' back their love so long
I think they're 'bout to burst

Some people only waste so long before they waste away
Some people only waste so long before they waste away
Waste away now

Some people only waste so long before they waste away
Some people only waste so long before they waste away
Waste away now

Waste away
Waste away now

WASTE AWAY

I'm just a junkyard now
This is my trash
They burnt me down somehow
Flicked me off like a cigarette ash

But time has come today; Time has come today

I've been a patron saint
I've had my mouth washed out
And I've been one big complaint
I turned myself into two separate gorillas?

But time has come today; Time has come to blow our old world away

Pulled in from abilene; found the world was sold
He paid in gold - but his hands were cold
But the man was sharp; man, this cat was cool
So we gave the jewel to a raving fool... YEAH!

They say I'm a big boy now
Come on and stand up straight
Lock up your girls and boys
Soon it will be too late

Time has come today time has come today
Time has come to blow out yesterday
Has come today time has come today
Time has come to blow our old world away

Cardboard people stand in a field made of grass.
Carved from mahogany and jade, they see you and all start to laugh.
The eyes that they live through will roll as they give you the task.

Steeped in a slumber, they tell you your number is one;
And the proper ladies blow smoke from their mouths like a gun.
They smile like the sun - say the race has begun, time to run... RUN!

Cardboard people tell you they'd love you to stay.
When the whores and sailors come it would be best to put lucky away.
You must wait for the sunset; your time hasn't come yet today.

As the sunset loves nimbus and the autumn light
We don't have to live for a fight
We can be one - it can be done!

I must leave here with the morning light
We don't have to live to be right
We can be one - this must be done!

And mommy and dad give a pat on the back but they're thinking:
"If you leave here we'll hate you
If you leave here we'll argue
If you leave here we'll hate you
We love you but we'll hate you if you leave"

Then you're hunkerin' down in mid-town with your brothers
And soon they'll all looking your way
We can survive - Just stay alive

And you think it's a crime but you know that it's time to be leaving
"If you leave here we'll hate you
If you leave here we'll argue
If you leave here we'll hate you
We love you but we'll hate you if you leave"

I'm just an old man now
I EAT YOUR TRASH
I'll make it back somehow
Take off at long last YEAH!

Time has come today
Time has come to blow our old world away
Time has come today
Time has come to blow our old world away

Let's blow our old world away
