CLOSING TIME
Closing time
Open all the doors and let you out into the world
Closing time
Turn all of the lights on over every boy and every girl
Closing time
One last call for alcohol so finish your whiskey or beer
Closing time
You don't have to go home but you can't stay here
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
Take me home
Closing time
Time for you to go out to the places you will be from
Closing time
This room won't be open till your brothers or your sisters come
So gather up your jackets, move it to the exits
I hope you have found a friend
Closing time
Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end, yeah
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
Take me home
Closing time
Time for you to go out to the places you will be from
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
Take me home
Closing time
Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end
SINGING IN MY SLEEP
Got your tape and it changed my mind
Heard your voice in between the lines
Come around from another time
Where nobody ever goes
All alone on the overpass
Wired and phoned to a heart of glass
Now I'm falling in love too fast
With you or the songs you chose
And all the stars play for me
Say the promise you long to keep
I can hear you singing to me in my sleep
I can hear you singing to me in my sleep
I've been living in your cassette
It's the modern equivalent
Singing up to a Capulet
On a balcony in your mind
In the City the lion sleeps
Pray to Sony my soul to keep
Were you ever so bright and sweet
Did you ever look so nice
And all the sounds dream for me...
I can hear you singing to me in my sleep
I can hear you singing to me in my sleep
I can hear you singing to me in my sleep
I can hear you singing to me in my sleep
And all the sounds dream for me
Dive me down in a soul so deep
I can hear you singing to me in my sleep
I can hear you singing to me in my sleep
I can hear you, I can hear you, I can hear you singing to me in my...
I can hear you singing to me in my sleep
Oh ooh...
Oh ooh...
Oh ooh...
MADE TO LAST
Made to last awhile, and roll on
Made to move in style, and move along
Made to dream of flying, so high
Made to wake up crying, I don't know why
Beautiful one asleep in the sun
Secret, sweet & sublime
I hope you last a long, long time
I hope you last a long, long time
Made to come alone, and pair up
Flash like a rolling stone, seventy-one
One time love affair (do do do) with the earth
Waiting on the air (do do do) for some re-birth
For what it's worth
Wherever you are, nearby or far
Black, white, lemon or lime
I hope you last a long, long time
I hope you last a long, long time
(Do do do)
I hope you last a long, long time
(Do do do)
I hope you last a long, long time
(Do do do)
I hope you last, I hope you last, I hope you last a long, long time
(Do do do)
A long, long time
NEVER YOU MIND
Saturday morning alone and barely feeling
Sitting at home after rocking and a-reeling
All night in a cat fight
With the only one who can make me cry
Open the blinds and the world is in rotation
Shaking my mind like an Etch-a-Sketch erasing
Sunshine, you were bad
I'm still mad but I can't remember why
I believe you know me well
I react like you're ringing a bell
Are you sorry that you treat me unkind?
Never you mind
Rolling along to the song that aggravates us
Beckoned on by the mirage of an oasis
Hurry, I'm getting blurry
And it's no longer clear in my mind
I believe you know me well
I react like you're ringing a bell
Are you sorry that you treat me unkind?
Never you mind
I believe I got you down
You react like anybody else around
Are you sorry that we wasted our time?
Never you mind
Sometimes it takes all my time guessing why I can't figure it out
Sometimes it takes all my energy just to forget about
All the memories that I'd be better off without
I believe you know me well...
Switch on the box Mr Spock is on the table
Dr McCoy is unable to connect his brain
Sweatin and strainin
Well it seemed so simple at the time
I believe you know me well
I react like you're ringing a bell
Are you sorry that you treat me unkind?
Never you mind
I believe I got you down
You react like anybody else around
Are you sorry that we wasted our time?
Never you mind (never you mind)
Never you mind (are you sorry that you treat me unkind?)
Never you mind (are you sorry?)
Never you mind (are you sorry that we wasted our time?)
Never you mind (are you sorry that we wasted our time?)
Never you mind (are you sorry?)
Never you mind (are you sorry that you treat me unkind?)
SECRET SMILE
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
So use it and prove it
Remove this whirling sadness
I'm losing, I'm bluesin'
But you can save me from madness
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
So save me I'm waiting
I'm needing, hear me pleading
And soothe me, improve me
I'm grieving, I'm barely believing now, now
When you are flying around and around the world
And I'm lying alonely
I know there's something sacred and free reserved
And received by me only
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
So use it and prove it
Remove this whirling sadness
I'm losing, I'm bluesin'
But you can save me from madness
When you are flying around and around the world
And I'm lying alonely
I know there's something sacred and free reserved
And received by me only
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile
And you use it only for me
Nobody knows it but you've got a secret smile...
Nobody knows it, nobody knows it
Nobody knows it, but you've got a secret...
Nobody knows it, nobody knows it
Nobody knows it, but you've got a secret...
Nobody knows it, nobody knows it
Nobody knows it, but you've got a secret...
Nobody knows it, nobody knows it
Nobody knows it, but you've got a secret...
DND
DND, Now they'll leave us alone
DND, Now you turn off the phone
How like you to make the whole world disappear and
How like you to make everything seem so clear and
How like you to make me want to stay forever
Here behind your door
DND, Hang the sign on the door
DND, Don't disturb us no more
How like you to make your love my hideaway and
How like you to make my troubles slide away and
How like you to make me want to play forever
Here behind your door
Minute I got some space and time I
Wanted to get me back in the crowd
Minute I got some peace you found me
Trying to make my way to the loud
What a clown...
DND, Leave the hotel at noon
DND, Will I see you soon?
How like you to make the whole world disappear and
How like you to make everything seem so clear and
How like you to make me want to stay forever
Here behind your door
Minute I got some space and time I
Wanted to get me back in the crowd
Minute I got some peace you found me
Trying to make my way to the loud
DND

I want to see you come, come, completely pleased
I want to give you something priceless and free
And free...

Alright stop it now
THIS WILL BE MY YEAR
Thursday's crush is a Friday night rush
And a Monday morning cry
It's the tail that you keep chasing
And it gets away every time
New Years Eve and it's hard to believe
Another Zodiac's gone around
While you drank yourself high on hoping
And watched the ceiling spin from the ground
Counting down from ten, it's time to make your annual prayer
Secret Santa in the sky, when will I get my share?
Then you tell yourself what you want to hear
Coz you have to believe this will be my year
This will be my year
Pound your fist and cross it off your list
But you know you're not that strong
When the man at the stop light catches you
Singing along to a brand new song
Well maybe it's trash or the overnight smash
That brings your ship crashing through the wall
So you can make your grand departure
From a world where you feel so small
One wheel in the ditch another spinning in the air
Put your pedal down to the floorboards coz you're not getting anywhere
Then you tell yourself (tell yourself)
What you want to hear (want to hear)
Cause you have to believe this will be my year
This'll be my year
This'll be my year
This'll be my year, oh
ALL WORKED OUT
She's got it all worked out in her mind
And you're part of the plan
And you don't have the final word
She's got a long head start on your brain
And your heart is afraid
And you don't get to say you're thinking
Come on make it easy now (make it easy now)
Come on make it easy on us all (make it easy now)
Come on make it easy now or tears may fall (ooh)
She's got it all worked out, I'm afraid
And your time is arranged
And it's strange but you're feeling fine
She's got it all worked out...
She's got it all worked out...
She's got it all worked out...
She's got it all worked out...
She's got it all worked out, I'm afraid
And your life is arranged (she's got it all worked out)
And it's strange but you're feeling fine
CALIFORNIA
Driven through the canyons I was dazzled by the mountains
And we didn't go very far
Close enough to heaven if you climb up on a mansion
You too can swing like a star
I tried to get inside I bought a ticket with my pride
And I was gone right out of my head
I went out for a ride to go across a great divide
And I ended up at home instead
California
I thought I should see
Now I'm back home, yeah
With twelve little pieces of me
I was just a passenger, a rider on the tremors
That were shaking all our beds at night
A visitor, a stranger thought I might pass for a regular
If I just kept out of the lights
Tore my heart out from my chest
Mixed it up in my mind with the best freshest pieces of my soul
Chose the ones I loved the most, drove 'em all down to the coast
Threw 'em in a big black hole
California
I thought I should see
Now I'm back home, yeah
With twelve little pieces of me
California
I dreamed I would find
Some kinda sorta pick-me-up
I got twelve little pieces of my mind
California
I thought I should see
Now I'm back home, yeah
With twelve little pieces of me
California
I dreamed I would find
Some kinda sorta pick-me-up
I got twelve little pieces of my mind
Twelve little pieces of my mind
Twelve little pieces of my mind
Twelve little pieces of my mind
Oh...
SHE SPREADS HER WINGS
At night she spreads her wings
She dreams of bigger things
She floats above the town
She sings without a sound
She can be anywhere at all
She can be anyone at all
A glow and then a shine
What she hoped she would find
Tonight, tonight
She's got a picture in her mind
She can be anyone at all
At night she changed her mind
She left the world behind
GONE TO THE MOVIES
Now the rain comes down the windows and it
Drops onto the forehead of the waiting boy
He surveys his rental kingdom and he
Wonders if he's really lost his one joy
Another fool would go down to the
Only place she ever went to lose herself
She's gone to the movies now and she don't need your help
Now the rain turns into snowfall as the
City sky reflects the silver street below
And it covers up the cars and the Wall
Flowers cd ended half an hour ago
Another fool would dig the broken car out from the snow
And drive to find the show
She's gone to the movies now and she's not coming home
She's gone to the movies now and she's not coming home
Now he looks around his place and anyways
There's nowhere she could sit besides the bed
And he wonders if the car will start tomorrow
Or he'll have to take the bus instead
Any other fool would be out on the roadway
Trying to spot her rusted Pontiac
She's gone to the movies now and she's not coming back
She's gone to the movies now and she's not coming back
