SHOCK BY SHOCK
heavens gate
oo heavens gate
if only you could open up to me now
oo
lie awake
oo lie awake
every second is eternity now

outside the sirens blow
stranger than the weather
i feel we're getting rolled
a pistol is a feather
oo
baby be my luck
day by day
shock by shock
oo
darlin we got to rock it through
blow by blow
shock by shock
fly away
ooo we could we fly away
if you could take the air with me now
escalates
ooh it escalates
we can turn the noise to symphony now
outside the sirens blow
stranger than the weather
i feel we're getting rolled
a pistol is a feather
oo
baby be my luck
day by day
shock by shock
oo
darlin we got to rock it through
blow by blow
shock by shock

John / Candy
I was a one time cowgirl
With a Starburst Wrapper
Wearing cocaine slippers
In an Airstream camper
John and Candy
We got an understanding
John and Candy
We got an understanding
I gotta take my head off
So I can see you clearer
Its you and me now
Standing at the mirror
John and Candy
We got an understanding
John and Candy
We got an understanding

Daytime TV
Kate's got the latitude
While she's faking love
She burns a church or two
Yeah, Feels like Monday but
Sunday's for family feuds
and Daytime TV
I try to take it straight
Like a gentleman,
I know how to eat my plate.
And it feels like dying
A slow death on the Estate.
it pours down on me
on me
on me
on me
Baby's Brooklyn
Hands are soft
Down and out
In the loft
It turns me on
like Daytime TV
The closet is full of moths
Uncle Deadbeat's suits
Grandpa don't cut me off
We're all parasites
Kate's in her finery
making Daytime TV
with me
with me
with me
Daytime TV

SNOW IN JULY
Life is a show girl
Las Vegas sun in the eye
Big stack of bills
And snow in July
Getting weird in the free world
Dancing for business man
Shanghai to New Amsterdam
Riding clouds up high
Wait a minute
Whats the story
All caught up in
Ceasar's glory,
Golden towers reaching straight up to the sky but
I'm dreaming of Snow in July, I can't say why.
Slow twist of the radio
Red lips round a cigarette
A line round the interstate
Splitting the sky
Heaven's full of broken hearts
Hell's full of diplomats
When life's all in photographs
You might as well try
Wait a minute
Whats the story
All caught up in
Nature's glory,
Golden desert reaching straight out to the sky but
I'm dreaming of Snow in July, I can't say why.

FEAR CITY
Living in the shadows
Anyone could
Lose their senses
Head out on the waves,
take their chances,
chase the signs.
Here comes the cowboys
Shiny shields
for their protection
Reflecting
the architecture
of modern times
Oh, fear city
You think you got me good
Oh, fear city
You think you got me running
You think you got me running
Working the night shift
Building all
tomorrow's fences
feel the wind
as it dances
cross power lines
Oh, fear city
You think you got me good
Oh, fear city
You think you got me running
You think you got me running

Matchless
When you're matchless
and a fascist
burned down
your corner store.
Clear the ashes,
from your rose sunglasses
walk down
to my door.
turn off your tv station
you know its getting down to the wire
I got the spark, you got the spark
punch the gas, you and I make the
fire
fire
you and I make the burning fire
when you're crashing
on your mattress
gotta get up
off the floor
smoke is rising
you should be out here smiling
we can do
whats never been done before
turn off your tv station
you know we just dont have the time
I got the spark, you got the spark
punch the gas, you and I make the
fire
fire
you and I make the burning fire

BIG WINNER
Go sign the contract
stand on your neighbor's back
a view of the sunset, behind the palms.
Put your flag in the dirt.
Get your name on your shirt.
Pull your punches, sing your songs.
You could be the chosen one
The golden ray
Chewing on a big steak dinner.
We are standing by
You got an Eagle eye
A slick beginner .
We need a winner.
A big winner.
A winner.
We need a winner.
A big winner.
A winner.
Hire a private plane
Burst bubbles in champagne
Running the game, feeling strong.
Viewers standing by.
With gold in their eyes.
Got em rolled, puttin em on.
You could be only one.
The chosen way,
Or 10 pounds thinner.
We need a winner.
A big winner.
A winner
We need a winner.
A big winner.
A winner

WALKING IN LIGHT
Light me up
god knows its sink or swim
Where you from ?
Into the blue again.
Its dark enough
sometimes you've got to crawl
its better than your back to the wall
Show me, love
a bed I can dream in
its good enough
our ship hasn't come but its all right
our ship hasn't come but its all right
we'll be
Walking in light
On the run
To the horizon
Take a breath
Look in my eyes then
Sure enough,
Tomorrow it will be alright.
the day will come we'll be alright
the day will come we'll be alright
we'll be
Walking in light.

A MAN OF NO CONSEQUENCE
A shirt made in paradise
Shoes of fine leather
Here comes a man
Of no consequence
Come to bring us to gather
From the bus stop's dirty lounge
The timekeeper's window
Here comes a man of no consquence
singing all his hymnal
it threw you, through you
blew you away
a cold fire
at the end of the day
