1. _ Shadows
Who will keep
Keep me in this evening
Even though
They are not here with me
I could be a great star
Still i'm far from happy
Finally
Feel the world around me
Fighting through
Fighting through the whiskey
I could be a great star
Still i'm far from happy
Out of these shadows
Comes the light
Shadows comes the light
You will keep
Keep me in this evening
Even though
You are not here with me
I could be a great star
Still i'm far from happy
I could be a great star
I could be a great star
I could be a great star
I could be a great star
Out of these shadows
Comes the light
Out of these shadows
Comes the light
Shadows comes the light

2. _ Poses
The yellow walls are lined with portraits
And i've got my new red fetching leather jacket
All these poses such beautiful poses
Makes any boy feel like picking up roses
There's never been such grave a matter
As comparing our new brand name black sunglasses
All these poses such beautiful poses
Makes any boy feel as pretty as princes
The green autumnal parks conducting
All the city streets a wondrous chorus singing
All these poses oh how can you blame me
Life is a game and true love is a trophy
And you said
Watch my head about it
Baby you said watch my head about it
My head about it
Oh no oh no oh no
Oh no oh no no kidding
Reclined amongst these packs of reasons
For to smokes the days away into the evenings
All these poses of classical torture
Ruined my mind like a snake in the orchard
I did go from wanting to be someone now
I'm drunk and wearing flip-flops on fifth avenue
Once you've fallen from classical virtue
Won't have a soul for to wake up and hold you
In the green autumnal parks conducting
All the city streets a wondrous chorus
Singing all these poses now no longer boyish
Made me a man ah but who cares what that it
And you said watch my head about it
Baby you said watch my head about it
My head about it
Oh no oh no oh no
Oh no oh no well you said
Watch my head about it
Baby you said watch my head about it
My head about it
Oh no oh no oh no
Oh no oh no no kidding

3. _ Rebel Prince
Where is my master the rebel prince
Who will shut all of these windows
It's these windows all around me
It's these windows who are telling me
To rid my dirty mind of all of its preciousness
Where is my master the rebel prince
Bet breaking everything trying to get to me
In this two-bit hotel
Just to me before this windows
Does rid my dirty mind of all of its preciousness
Oh i can see him now
Though it's so far away
Amongst the roving crowd
Going the other way
Confounded anger burning with love for me
Oest mon mare le prince rebelle
Qui va fermer toutes ces fenres
Ce sont ces fenres autour de moi
Ce sont ces fenres qui m'appellent
Qui m'appellent
Marigold, marigold, marigold
I'm leaving the roosevelt hotel
Marigold, marigold, marigold
I'm leaving the room we knew so well
Marigold, marigold, marigold
Marigold, marigold, marigold
Marigold, marigold, marigold
Marigold, marigold, marigold

4. _ Grey Gardens
Honey i'm a roller concrete clover
Tadzio, tadzio
Arm wrestle your mother
Simply over
Tadzio, over you
But beware my heart can be a pin
A sharp silver dragonfly
Trying to get my mansions green
After i've grey gardens seen
In betweeen tonight and my tomorrows
Tadzio where have you been
In between tonight i know it's tadzio
Tadzio don't you fight
Honey can you hear me
In between been dragging a dragonfly
Trying to get my mansions green

Honey won't you hold me tight
Get me through grey gardens tonight

After i've grey gardens seen
Honey won't you hold me tight
Get me through grey gardens tonight
Tadzio, tadzio

5. _ California
california, california
You're such a wonder that i think i'll stay in bed
Big time rollers, part time models
So much to plunder
That i think i'll sleep instead
I don't know this sea of neon
Thousand surfers, whiffs of freon
And big nights back east with rhoda
California please
There's a moment
I've been saving
A kind of crucifix around this munchkin land
Up north freezing, little me drooling
That's entertainment's on at eight
Come on ginger slam
I don't know this sea of neon
Thousand surfers, whiffs of freon
And my new grandma bea arthur
Come on over
Ain't it a shame that at the top
Peanut butter and jam they served you
Ain't it a shame that at the top
Still those soft skin boys can bruise you
Yes i fell for a streaker
I don't know this sea of neon
Thousand surfers, whiffs of freon
Ain't it a shame
That all the world can't enjoy your mad traditions
Ain't it a shame that all the world
Don't got keys to their own ignitions
Life is the longest death in california
California
You're such a wonder that i think i'll stay in bed
So much to plunder that i think i'll sleep instead
You're such a wonder that i think i'll stay in bed
So much to plunder that i think i'll sleep instead

6. _ Evil Angel
For to see my depth of sorrow
You are not allowed to follow me
Into this town square
And then run away
Evil angel with your cleft tongue
When you kissed me
On this town square
All the lights came on at sunset
Thought you'd stay
Evil angel bearing apples
When you kissed me
On this drawbridge
As the boats do
How was i to know you'd flee
Tear down these monuments
Bury the coat of arms
And build for me a factory
Evil angel when you're faced with hatred's
Daggers in my honor
You're no match no scratching hearts that no longer bleed
Oh evil angel tear down the monuments
Evil angel bury the coat of arms
And rebuild for me these memories
For to see my depth of sorrow

7. _ In A Graveyard
Wandering properties of death
Arresting moons within our eyes and smiles
We did rest
Amongst the granite tombs to catch our breath
Worldly sounds of endless warring
Were for just a moment silent stars
Worldly boundaries of dying
Were for just a moment never ours
All was new
Just as the black horizons blue
Then along the bending path away
I smiled in knowing i'd be back one day

8. _ The Tower Of Learning
I'm looking for the tower of learning
I'm looking for the copious prize
I saw it in your eyes what i'm looking for
I saw it in your eyes what i'm looking for
I really do fear that i'm dying
I really do fear that i'm dead
I saw it in your eyes what i'm looking for
I saw it in your eyes what will make me live
All the sights of paris
Pale inside your iris
Tip the eiffel tower with one glance
Stained glass cathedrals with one glint
You smashed it with your eyes
What i'm looking for
One blink and then my heart wasn't there no more
I'm looking for the tower of learning
I'm looking for the copious prize

9. _ One Man Guy
People will know when they see this show
The kind of a guy i am
They'll recognize just what i stand for and what i just can't stand
They'll perceive what i believe in
And what i know is true
And they'll recognize i'm a one man guy
Always was through and through
People meditate
Hey that's just great
Trying to find the inner you
People depend on family and friend
And other folks to pull them through
I don't know why i'm a one man guy
Or why i'm a one man show
But these three cubic feet of bone and blood and meat are all i love and know
'cause i'm a one man guy in the morning
Same in the afternoon
One man guy when the sun goes down
I whistle me a one man tune
One man guy a one man guy
Only kind of guy to be
I'm a one man guy
I'm a one man guy
I'm a one man guy is me
I'm gonna bathe and shave
And dress myself and eat solo every night
Unplug the phone, sleep alone
Stay away out of sight
Sure it's kind of lonely
Yeah it's sort of sick
Being your own one and only
Is a dirty selfish trick
'cause i'm a one man guy in the morning
Same in the afternoon
One man guy when the sun goes down
I whistle me a one man tune
One man guy a one man guy
Only kind of guy to be
I'm a one man guy
I'm a one man guy
I'm a one man guy is me

10. _ Greek Song
You who were born with the sun above your shoulders
You turn me on you turn me on
You have to know
You who were born where the sun she keeps her distance
You turn me on you turn me on
But so does she
You who were born there where beauty is existence
You turn me on you turn me
Your body heals my soul
You who were born where you shiver and you shudder
You turn me on the girl is gone so come on
Let's go
All the pearls of china
Fade astride a volta
Don't sew beelines to anybody's hide
Save your poison for a lover who is on your side
One way is rome and the other way is mecca
On either side on either side
Of our motorbike
One way is home and the other way is papa
On either side on either side and
Prepared to strike
When i get back i will bleed after my beating
Don't leave me here don't leave me here
I'm scared to death
All the pearls of china
Fade astride a volta
Don't sew beelines to anybody's hide
Save your poison for a lover who is on your side
All the pearls of china
Fade astride a volta
Don't sew beelines to anybody's hide
Save your poison for a lover who is on your side

11. _ Cigarettes And Chocolate Milk
Cigarettes and chocolate milk
These are just a couple of my cravings
Everything it seems i like's a little bit stronger
A little bit thicker, a little bit harmful for me
If i should buy jellybeans
Have to eat them all in just one sitting
Everything it seems i like's a little bit sweeter
A little bit fatter, a little bit harmful for me
And then there's those other things
Which for several reasons we won't mention
Everything about 'em is a little bit stranger, a little bit harder
A little bit deadly
It's not very smart
Tends to make one part
So brokenhearted
Sitting here remembering me
Always been a shoe made for the city
Go ahead accuse me of just singing about places
With scrappy boys faces have general run of the town
Playing with prodigal sons
Take a lot of sentimental valiums
Can't expect the world to be your raggedy andy
While running on empty you little old doll with a frown
You got to keep in the game
Retaining mystique while facing forward
I suggest a reading of lesson in tightropes
Or surfing your high hopes or adios kansas
It's not very smart
Tends to make one part
So brokenhearted
Still there's not a show on my back
Holes or a friendly intervention
I'm just a little bit heiress, a little bit irish
A little bit tower of pisa
Whenever i see ya
So please be kind if i'm a mess
Cigarettes and chocolate milk
Cigarettes and chocolate milk

12. _ The Consort
Prepare your things
Dissolve your mind
'cause i'm your consort beautiful queen of seventeen
A blood red moon has spared our bed
But not your rivals
Beautiful queen
Prepare to reign
No more to hide with i your faithful consort by your side
Let streamers fly and cannons roar
On your arrival beautiful queen
Tomorrow night
Prepare to walk
On anyone her highness ever wants
Entrust in me
You're not alone
Together we'll wreak havoc on the throne
Entrust in me
You're not alone
Even though my throne's slightly smaller than yours
Beautiful queen
Together we'll wreak havoc you and me
Together we'll wreak havoc you and me
Together we'll wreak havoc you
Prepare your things
Dissolve your mind
'cause i'm your consort beautiful queen of seventeen
