Something don't feel right about it
Something don't feel right about it
Gimme one good reason I should quit
Take me on your springtime carousel
Drop me in your gold coin wishing well
Drop me in your gold coin wishing well
Take me on your springtime carousel
I am everything you wanted,
but I'm not everything I dreamt I'd be
Take me on your springtime carousel

The Date Tree

In the bay of Barataria
Allah redeemed his vow
In the bay of Barataria
Hovering around
Amid the vivid flashes
The scowl of malefactors
Gliding, gliding, gliding
In a vessel
It was the Sultan's brother
Who fled the home of his maiden
She's dying, she's dying, she's dying
Under the date-tree
She's dying, she's dying, she's dying
Under the date tree
On the corner of Orleans,
The shallow earth was raised
In a garden, a garden, a garden
That the earth made

Repeat Violence

I can't stand the heat in the street in the middle of the afternoon
Downtown walking down with a meddlin' tune in my head
As pigeons pass the clap coke can dance
"it's hard work but it's honest work"
Last laugh, hot blast, cold casket,
The bold move fast but they never last
Downtown with all the timebombs tickin'
With the pedal to the ground and the bass drum kickin'
Violence
For all the repeat violence
Everybody's takin' pictures but I'm not takin' one
I don't care if it's the last sunset I ever see
It'd be the same to me
Shorty looks up for the dimes of change but times are strange
Now when all the timebombs boom
Armored cars at the school so the kids can learn
Everyone stands by like it ain't their turn
Downtown with all the timebombs tickin'
With the pedal to the ground and the bass drum kickin'
Violence
For all the repeat violence

This Time

She was born and she died
Inside of withered chrome
Beneath those broken eyes
Her soul was overgrown
Let it go, just change your mind
Lighten up this time
I went out all alone
To sing a song or two
I found her sitting there
Dressed in her chosen youth
Let it go, just change your mind
Lighten up this time
Shorn the locks bred in swamps
I sing a song or two
Did he die or did I
Or was it only you?
Let it go, change your mind
Lighten up this time

This Heart Of Mine

This heart of mine
Don't get too close
It don't seem to share
What it knows
The days go by
I don't suppose
You got a light
That grows
This heart of mine
Won't seem to give
'Cause one more push
Is gonna set it off the edge
So don't get too close
It gets dark inside
And I don't suppose
You got a light
With you I feel safe (oh I feel safe)
With you I feel secure (oh I feel secure)
But how will I know if this is pure?
This heart of mine
It's a little bit rough
It don't seem to know
When enough is enough
