Real Good Time In 1969

Aristocratic Lady
You should be my baby
We could have a real good time
Sluming in the pubs
and gambling in the clubs
We might win the morning sun
Your stupid friends will have a fit
When we show up so out of it
Jealous eyes reveal the hate
Because for them it's just too late
Real goood time in 1969
I've been kicked around
While you've been losing ground
Let's pack it on up and fly away
To the south of France
She's wearing velvet pants
with a bottle of pills from ol' Doctor Rob
Your mother won't know what to say
As you strut in her door today
Father smiles, pretends to care
You know full well there's nothing there
Real good time in 1969
I've been thinking
Am I dreaming or
Am I losing my mind
Real good time in 1969
Real good time

Kathleen caffeine ecstasy and Benzedrine
Kathleen caffeine do you wanna go
Kathleen caffeine licorice amphetamine
Kathleen caffeine never says no
Yes
She never says no
She’s dancing manically in the breeze and near the trees
A plastic majesty
The queen of social scenes
All wound up like honey bees buzz buzz as she pleases
She’s a monopoly now count down from three to one
Kathleen caffeine ecstasy and Benzedrine
Kathleen caffeine wherever do you go
Kathleen caffeine gasoline catastrophe
Kathleen caffeine never says no
Yes
She never says no
In her glass then down the hatches holding fast until she crashes
Is that her cashing out now
No dice to her fashions
Bouncing back up with a flashing overflow of toxic algae
She’s her own pharmacy open here in every season
Kathleen caffeine ecstasy and Benzedrine
Kathleen caffeine always on the go
Kathleen caffeine cigarettes and limousines
Kathleen caffeine never says no
Yes
She never says no
She told me so
She never says no

Upon The Wall
04:14

Oooo the pictures
Pictures upon the wall
Oooo their faces
Look at those faces
The faces say it all
Fortunes bought and sold
New lies growing old
That's where we live and die
On the wall
You've lost all reason
It's the curse of this season
Even her voice ain't pleasin'
As it's singing in your head
Broken windows
In burned out buildings
But still they hang
Those pictures upon the wall
You stand alone
So all alone
In a frozen time zone
You ain't ever, never going home

She’s a wildforce flying forth
My love gives no regard
to walls around her mind
For her they’re like a tomb
Devoid of space and time
She’s a wildforce flying forth
Ahh, ah, ah, ah, ah
Her path made clear today
Whatever will she find
Beyond a hidden place
Unfolding on for miles
None may follow that same road
Earthbound hallowed souls foretold
She’s a wildforce flying forth
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
When she has gone I know
I’ll see it in those eyes
Returning when she’s done
My love forever wild

Fields Of Yesterday
03:40
|

|
In those fields called yesterday
Those gentle days when we once played
Some friends were lost
But others saved
And I remember you
Flashing smiles on a summer's day
Gone so long, I couldn't say
I'm lost in the fields of yesterday
In my dreams I still see your face
You run so strong but away from me
And then you fade and I'm left behind
What more can you ask of me
I'm tortured by what should have been
Perhaps one day we'll run again
As ghosts in the fields of yesterday
Long buried in the fields of yesterday

Pretty Penny has it all
Pretty Penny has a face that no one can forget
And Pretty Penny lives a life of sad and fond regret
And you know that isn't right
And you'll dream of her tonight, that's right
Pretty Penny keeps her thoughts inside her cayon mind
And Pretty Penny waits for you to see if you will find
What's hiding in plain sight
In the golden morning light, that's right
Pretty Penny has it all
Pretty Penny sings a song about a better life
And Pretty Penny wants to be your darling lovely wife
And you know she's waiting there
And you know she's always cared for you, so true
Pretty Penny has it all
(Additional lyrics of reprise on at end of "Laughing Boy")
Pretty Penny has a place that she can call her own
But Pretty Penny just can't face this dark world all alone

Everything now is never enough
You got just what you wanted and it didn’t add up
Something else out there waits for your love
That’s why everything now is never enough
It’s never enough
Yeah it’s never enough
Oh yeah you’ve finally made the scene
Oh no it’s fading to a dream
Whoah
It’s running from you very very fast
You better speed up for it don’t be last
That’s the way to happy don’t be sad
Wondering what you just had
Everything now is never enough
You got just what you wanted and it didn’t add up
Something else out there waits for your love
That’s why everything now is never enough
It’s never enough
Yeah it’s never enough
Oh yeah the good times start to roll
Oh no right into an empty hole
Whoah
Falling from you very very fast
Reliving moments baby that have passed
Crazy train to happy feeling bad
Nothing left for you to understand
Everything now is never enough
You got just what you wanted and it didn’t add up
Something else out there waits for your love
That’s why everything now is never enough
Everything now is never enough
You got just what you wanted and it didn’t add up

Flying down the black desert road
Escaping from the past
Looking in the mirror
At the orange coloured blast
The safety of this steel machine
Is given from above
We're fleeing the great disaster
To a place that offers love
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Faster, faster driving this GTO
Flashing, flashing neon lights aglow
Driving, driving rubber barely on the road
I think I see the lights ahead
Fourteen headless soldiers
Carrying their heavy load
The dreams of all God's children
Scattered across the road
A sailing ship stuck in the sands of time
Desserted and left for lost
Keep those eyes on the highway, baby
And your hands upon your heart
Let's ride, let's ride, let's ride, let's ride
Let my conscience be your guide
Let's pray, Let's pray
I think we're gonna make it

Goodbye To Samantha

Goodbye to Samantha
She wore a sapphire
She was a dancer
She stole my heart and she took my gun
She left with him
Now they're on the run
What we had it wasn't bad
Now it's dust
You know I must
Be comin' for you no matter what you do
Face on a poster
Now it's you
Hello, Samantha
You are a liar
The stakes got higher
I shot him dead cuz he looked at me
You can go
Now you're free
I took my leave and headed west
Samantha stayed
It's for the best
She's workin' hard in a gray saloon
Whiskey and beer
In the afternoon

Love You Love Me

Get yourself together, baby, right on time
Here it comes tomorrow you'll be in your prime
Just one more little mountain you may have to climb
Cuz you know that it's true
There's one thing we gotta do
Write down all your problems build a better plan
Take that first big step, girl, I just know you can
You've made the right decision, baby, I'm your man
Cuz you know what's true comes to so few
Love you love me
Love you love me
Love you love me
That's just the way it's gotta be
Even the bad times have been good
Believe in ourselves just like we should
We're lost in this desert all alone
It's time to go home
Get yourself together
Ger yourself together
Get yourself together

Laughing Boy
05:36
|

|
Flying around in circles
Looking for a place to land
Tired, you need a place to rest
It happened all so quickly
Big mistakes along the way
There's no coming back this time
You had to be someone's laughing boy
Yes, you did, like a little kid
You tried to sing them a happy song
But it all went wrong
So you waved so long
We got to keep your legend
You just had a broken life
So unfair for you to bear
You had to be England's laughing boy
Yes, you did, we love you, Syd
You tried to scream one more final scream
Then you ran away
No more time for play
