1. THE BELLS OF BERLIN

I can hear the bells ringing and echoing over Berlin
I can feel the emotion and sadness that now is within
The city stands so tall
But it's imprisoned behind a wall
(One day it must fall)

Over and over I ask myself is this a dream?
I can hardly imagine the sadness the city has seen
There will come a day
When its chains will fall away

I can feel sadness, I can feel joy
Between the two I'm torn
Day by day now I can hear people sing
Life must go on till the city's reborn again

The bells are ringing are calling to you
You have been watching the world go by
Search for an answer there's one to be found
Though it'll seem like it's miles away
It's here on the ground


2. THE BALLAD OF CRAFTY JACK

You know I'm standing in the hallway
Standing my ground
Waiting for the action with a gun in my hand
Gotta be cautious, gotta be cool
It's all gotta be so carefully planned
It's gotta be right and I'm a little bit scared
If it all goes wrong I could end up dead
Now's my chance to make my advance
And put a ball of firey lead right between his eyes

I can see his right hand rising
I can see his six-gun gleaming
I can hear his bullet searing
I can feel the pain a'nearing

That man he drinkum my whiskey
Smokum my weed
Stole my woman and planted his seed
And now I'm on the run and I don't want to bleed
But I know he never missed
When he's gunning for greed
But now I'm running down the river
Trying to cover my tracks
I can feel him getting closer his sights on my back
I've got nothing to live for but I don't want to die
Cos he's standing in the shadows
With the sun in my eyes


3. TIME LAYS DOWN

When I awake and find myself amid this morning
Cloudy sunrise drapes the dawning
Welcome home for the traveller weary
Not of this land but those of the mind
In search of a pillar of light always shining
Close my eyes and I'm feeling the glow
Distant ships of another creation
Sale the seas of my imagination

Passing through
Time lays downs beside me
I reach through a fountain
That waters the memories that grow in my mind
Harvest the seeds that feed my emotion
For a world of a different kind
Premonitions of my own conceiving
Close my eyes and I've opened the door
Leave the mechanised world of my body behind me
Where destinations are long pre-determined

Passing through to charge the view
Across the rivers running through my mind
It's to be in my keep
Time lays down beside me and goes to sleep

Fantasized for a while if you're able
For a kingdom of your design
Food for thought is the metal on the table
Long-awaited are things that you find
Tallest mountains, blinding sunlight
Vivid pictures within my mind's eyes
These are lands that colour my vision
Of existence unsynchronized

Longing to wander


4. HYPNOTIC MOVER

Well I know what it's like
And I feel like there's no way out
I can hear what they're saying (honey)
And there's no way they can jump and shout
There's really nothing they can rap about with you

Yesterday I was a fool
I didn't notice what they'd done to me
We have got to stick together (brothers)
The whole damn world's just too blind to see
We've got to stick together to be free (I know)

Revolution is upon us
Soon we'll have to face reality
Communism's taken over
Soon there'll be no freedom for humanity
Let's go away together you and me right now
We'll find an island in the tropical sun
Where we can stay love and live for today love
We'll build a place for a king and queen
They'll never find us we'll be too far away by then

Return again!


5. LOVELY LUBINA

I've been around the world and over the moon
But a certain lady opened my eyes
With her spikey high heels and peroxide hair-do
Call her and she'll quote you a price (nice)

27/50 and a bottle of gin
You won't believe the positions you can put her in
She gets down on her knees like she's going to pray
But she'll never get to heaven that way, they say

She puts evil white powder on the end of her nose
She's a professor of all kind of vice
She's a high-class dealer, she's a heart stealer
If you cross her it's with death you dice

Lovely Lubina, have you seen her?
It's a game she's playing, it's herself she's laying
Lovely Lubina, have you seen her?
Does she know when the game is up?
Lovely Lubina, have you seen her?
It's heads you lose and tails she wins
She takes your soul and spreads her sins


6. SEASONS IN YOUR EYES

I remember a summer's day
A lake that reflects my longing
A warmth that inspires to stray
Where yonder my spirit's calling
Caressing a hand in mine
A love that defied dimension
But all too soon the leaves were falling

Assembling all my thoughts
So fresh was your smile in giving
Embracing my every move
Enhancing my joy of living
How much is there to feel
When dreams can appear so real?
The answer lies where dreams are ended

I await your returning to the place
Where my thoughts can still restore me
Looking into the sky
Doesn't it make you wonder?
What is it that satisfies
Inquisitive human nature?
The seasons in your eyes
Your pretence has made me wiser
Arise to dry my tears with wisdom

Beyond all your mystery
You taught me such words of meaning
With sun shining in my skies
I know where my soul is feeling
The textures of your embrace
The dew on the morning greets you
Where waters of the meek replenish


7. RIVERS OVERFLOWING

Call me a fool but I can justify my motive
One day so thoughtfully
I watched the tides a'rolling
Our aspirations as to life ran fast before me
Envisage our kind as though
They were rivers overflowing

Conceived of the rainfall
So we toil to seek direction
Nurtures the ripplings
That will guide a life's duration
Thus as the flow endures
The rapids try to daunt us
Don't be dismayed by those
Who mock their own reflections

When your tides of progression
Are damned or misgiven
Hence led far astray from your own vocation
And the voice in your head is of foreign desiring
And your eyes bear the blindfold
Dirty waters engulfing
We cast our eyes where all shall realise
To oceans wide go rivers overflowing

When usual flow of your intent
Is low in motion
The rains of hope shall yield the waters
Of your notions

And in these treasured moments
You emerge to the surface
From the depths of the deepest
To the cheers of the cherished
And the banks
As they widen
To mould the horizon
So your eyes shed the blindfold
As your knowing is broadened


8. ALL OF US TO ALL OF YOU

Here we stand in audience presence
Casting shadows on every face
Hold your hands out for the time is the essence
Build a future from yesterday
There you sit and you're thinking in judgement
Keep both your feet on the ground
The guitars are loaded but don't run for cover
Face the music and get'em down

Rise up no time to lose
Make haste to taste the sweeter fruits
Of better days
It's yours to choose so stand at hand
A picture set in violet haze

Amid all the shouts and the laughter
And all the enemies who call themselves friends
Here we will stand hereafter
Call the tune and we'll play it again
A journey in sound to endeavour
A richness so rare if no clever
Such sounds we will stand and deliver
From all of us to all of you

Rise up no time to lose
Make haste to taste the sweeter fruits
Of better days
It's yours to choose so stand at hand
A picture set to light the way

See the lights in array
An electrical sunrise
See the skies through the eyes
Of one who knows
Out in front is the one who never ever
Learns to speak a word
But she sits and she looks
To be seen and not heard
