Lyrics

Title
- And she was lying in the grass
- And she could hear the highway breathing
- And she could see a nearby factory
- She's making sure she is not dreaming
- See the lights of a neighbor's house
- Now she's starting to rise
- Take a minute to concentrate
- And she opens up her eyes
- The world was moving and she was right there with it (and she was)
- The world was moving she was floating above it (and she was) and she was
- And she was drifting through the backyard
- And she was taking off her dress
- And she was moving very slowly
- Rising up above the earth
- Moving into the universe
- Drifting this way and that
- Not touching ground at all
- Up above the yard
- CHORUS
- She was glad about it... no doubt about it
- She isn't sure where she's gone
- No time to think about what to tell them
- No time to think about what she's done
- And she was
- And she was looking at herself
- And things were looking like a movie
- She had a pleasant elevation
- She's moving out in all directions
- CHORUS
- Joining the world of missing persons (and she was)
- Missing enough to feel alright (and she was)
- There's a word for it
- And words don't mean a thing
- There's name for it
- And names make all the difference in the world
- Some things can never be spoken
- Some things cannot be pronounced
- That word does not exist in any language
- It will never be uttered by a human mouth
- Let X make a statement
- Let breath pass through those cracked lips
- That man was my hero
- And now that word has been taken from us
- Some things can never be spoken
- Some things cannot be pronounced
- That word does not exist in any language
- It will never be uttered by a human mouth
- Give me back my name
- Give me back my name
- Something has been changed in my life
- Something has been changed in my life
- Something must be returned to us
- Something must me returned to us
- A woman made a man
- A man he made a house
- And when they lay together
- Little creatures all come out
- Well, I've seen sex and I think it's alright
- It makes those little creatures come to life
- I can laugh or I can turn away
- Well, I've seen sex and I think it's okay
- We are creatures, creatures of love
- We are creatures, creatures of love
- From the sleep of reason, a life is born
- We are creatures, creatures of love
- It's okay to be afraid
- When the blue sparks hit your brain
- We can love one another
- I've been told that it's okay
- Doctor, doctor, tell me what I am
- Am I one of those human beings
- Well I can laugh or I can learn to think
- So help me now to find out what I feel
- We are creatures, creatures of love
- We are creatures, creatures of love
- We've been here forever, before you were born
- We are creatures of love, We are creatures of love
- A man can drive his car
- And a woman can be a boss
- I'm a monkey and a flower
- I'm everything at once
- Well, a woman and a man can be together
- If they decide to they'll make little creatures
- Watch 'em now!
- Little creature of love
- With two arms and two legs
- From a moment of passion
- Now they cover the bed
- We are creatures of love, we are creatures of love
- We are creatures, creatures of love
- We are creatures, creatures of love
- From the sleep of reason, a life is born
- We are creatures of love, we are creatures of love
- Last time she jumped out the window, well, she only turned and
- smiled. You might think she would say something, but you'd have to
- wait a while.
- Well the lady don't mind.
- No, no, no, the lady don't mind
- She just turns her head and disappears,
- I kinda like that style
- Little boat that floats on a river, it's drifting through a haze
- She stops by whenever she wants to, well, there she goes again
- Well, it's no trouble at all.
- No, no, no trouble at all
- Well, what she does
- is all right with me, and
- I kinda like that style
- Come on. come on. I go up and down.
- I like this curious feeling. I know, I see.
- It's like make believe. Cover your ears
- so you can hear what I'm saying.
- I'm not lost but I don't know
- Where I am. I got a question.
- All right. All right. This is what we like.
- Who knows, who knows,
- What I'm thinking
- She says love is not what she's after,
- and everyone knows.
- Each time she looks in the mirror,
- she lets her feelings show.
- Well, the lady don't mind
- No, no, no, the lady don't mind.
- Well, what she says is all right by me,
- and I kinda like that style
- Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Here we go again
- I don't know, I don't know,
- What I'm sayin'.
- Hey man. Hey man.
- I sure don't feel the same
- She likes to say what she's feeling
- Hey. Did I get a big surprise.
- I know you think so.
- Come on. Come on. She says anything.
- Who knows, who knows,
- what she's thinking.
- Well, I know what it is
- But I don't know where it is
- Where it is
- Well, I know where it is
- But I don't know what it looks like
- What it looks like
- Well, I know what it looks like,
- But I don't know where she comes from
- Well, I know where she comes from,
- But I don't know what's her name.
- (and she said) This is a perfect world
- I'm riding on an incline
- I'm staring in your face
- You'll photograph mine
- And I've been walking, talking
- Believing the things that are true
- And I've been finding
- The difference between right and wrong...good and bad
- See me put things together
- Put them back where they belong
- Am I just like the others
- Have I always been singing the same song
- CHORUS
- Somebody said that it happens all over the world
- I do believe that it's true
- And the sun's coming up
- And we're doing all the things that we should
- Doesn't everbody here believe in the things we do?
- (And she said) CHORUS
- It's a strange situation
- What's wrong with you?
- Baby...baby...baby
- What you doing in my house?
- And it's all true
- There's nothing wrong with you
- (And I said) CHORUS
- Mommy had. A little baby.
- There he is. Fast asleep.
- He's just. A little plaything.
- Why not. Wake him up?
- Cute. Cute. Little baby.
- Little pee pee. Little toes.
- Now he's comin' to me.
- Crawl across. The kitchen floor.
- Baby, baby, please let me hold him
- I wanna make him stay up all night
- Sister, sister, he's just a plaything
- We wanna make him stay up all night
- Yeah we do
- See him drink. From a bottle.
- See him eat. From a plate.
- Cute. Cute. As a button.
- Don't you wanna make him. Stay up late.
- And we're having fun. With no money.
- Little smile. On his face.
- Don't cha' love. The little baby.
- Don't you want to make him. Stay up late.
- CHORUS
- Here we go (all night long)
- Sister, sister (all night long)
- In the playpen...woo...(all night long)
- Little baby goes, ha! (all night long)
- I know you want to leave me...
- Why don't. We pretend.
- There you go. Little man.
- Cute. Cute. Why not?
- Late at night. Wake him up.
- CHORUS
- Here we go (all night long)
- Sister, sister...woo...
- (with the television on)
- Little baby goes...woo! (all night long)
- Hey, hey, baby! (all night long)
- And he looks so cute (all night long)
- In his little red suit (all night long)
- I...I am just a number
- I...hang on to what I got
- You...say what you want to
- I...I...I...I just try to stay alive
- I...put myself together
- People say, get away, somebody will turn you in
- Life, life without surrender
- Togetherness...ecstasy is what I need
- I can laugh, but I should cry
- When love and understanding are the ultimate crimes
- (And I said) Walk it down. Talk it down.
- (oh, oh, oh) Sympathy. Luxury.
- Somebody will take you there.
- Walk it down. Talk it down.
- (oh, oh, oh) Sympathy. Luxury.
- Somebody will take you there.
- She...says she remembers.
- Time...long time ago.
- We...belong together.
- I...I...I...I turn up the radio
- Lies, lies and propaganda
- I...gonna tell you what I need
- Life, life, without surrender
- Togetherness...ecstasy is what I need
- I got yours and you got mine
- And I can swim, but I should fly
- CHORUS
- Ain't no crime to believe
- I took my money, I bet my life
- What you see is what you get
- But it sure ain't what we need.
- CHORUS
- I'm looking and I'm dreaming for the first time
- I'm inside and I'm outside at the same time
- And everything is real
- Do I like the way I feel?
- When the world crashes in into my living room
- Television man made me what I am
- People like to put the television down
- But we are just good friends
- (I'm a) television man
- I knew a girl, she was a macho man
- But it's alright, I wasn't fooled for long
- This is the place for me
- I'm the king, and you're the queen
- CHORUS
- Take a walk in the beautiful garden
- Everyone would like to say hello
- It doesn't matter what you say
- Come and take us away
- The world crashes in, into my living room
- The world crashes in, into my living room
- The world crashes in, into my living room
- The world crashes in, into my living room
- And we are still good friends...(Television man)
- I'm watching everything...(Television man)
- Television man...(Television man)
- I'm watching everything...(Television man)
- Television man...and I'm gonna say
- We are still good friends...and I'm trying to be
- Watchin' everything...and I gotta say
- We are still good friends...You know the way it is
- Television man...I've got what you need
- We are still good friends...I know the way you are
- Television man...I know what you're tryin' to be
- Watchin' everything...and I gotta say
- That's how the story ends.
- Well we know where we're goin'
- But we don't know where we've been
- Fnd we know what we're knowin'
- But we can't say what we've seen
- And we're not little children
- And we know what we want
- And the future is certain
- Give us time to work it out
- We're on a road to nowhere
- Come on inside
- Takin' that ride to nowhere
- We'll take that ride
- I'm feelin' okay this mornin'
- And you know,
- We're on the road to paradise
- Here we go, here we go
- CHORUS
- Maybe you wonder where you are
- I don't care
- Here is where time is on our side
- Take you there...take you there
- We're on a road to nowhere
- We're on a road to nowhere
- We're on a road to nowhere
- There's a city in my mind
- Come along and take that ride
- and it's all right, baby, it's all right
- And it's very far away
- But it's growing day by day
- And it's all right, baby, it's all right
- They can tell you what to do
- But they'll make a fool of you
- And it's all right, baby, it's all right
- We're on a road to nowhere
