Redux Rock
03:18
|
|||
Any way you shake it
You know they're gonna make it
and everything will turn out fine
There's no other way to take it
Better to remake it
Things come back in style
But, you know, If I had my way
they all would blow my mind
Oh, Lord, how hard I pray
the stars they will align
Let's do the Redux Rock
In a galaxy far away
In a world running out of time
Heroes for us today
Yesterday commercialized
Any way you play it
You know they're gonna say it
was the best in quite a while
'cause the greatest is the latest
It's what all the rage is
and it's gonna make the miracle mile
Revised to modern tastes
the records it will break
shall never be denied
There's no other way to take it
Better to remake it
Things come back in style
But Lord, If I had my way
they all would blow my mind
Oh, you know, how hard I pray
the stars they will align
Let's do the Redux
Let's do the Redux
Let's do the Redux Rock
Let's do the Redux
I wanna do the Redux
Let's do the Redux Rock

Lucy Won't You Wait
02:42
|
|||
Red-eyed to Newcastle
where one day I'm sure that I'll
make it to the Sage
Crossed the Millenium
had Quayside pies and then
downed a few pints and was on my way
Trained into Manchester
checked in at the Beetham Tower
heard its hum indoors
Gala revelers
exchanged some heated words
a one-legged girl cried outside my door
Lucy won't you wait
wait, I'm coming home
I've been away so long
and, baby, now I know
we'll run run round again
Touched down in Berlin
dined on Sauerbraten
had one helles more
Saw the Berlin Mauer,
Brandenburg for an hour
took pictures of a Chinese tour
I flew into Amsterdam
enjoy a few Heineken
with my croque monsieur
Admired night watchmen,
Daubigny's Garden,
was mesmerized by the milkmaid's pour
Lucy won't you wait
wait, I'm coming home
I've been away so long
but, baby, now I know
we'll run round again
Lucy won't you wait
wait, I'm coming home
I've been away so long
and, baby, now I know

If Ever You Should Fall
03:29
|
|||
If ever you should fall,
may you never feel the pain
of a lonely room
where you're all that remains;
long after all the songs
have been played
and your love
has been betrayed.
If ever you should fall.
Oh, it's always at the start,
the end seems far away
and your ev'ry move
a mistake.
If ever you should fall,
wipe the tears from your face,
stand up tall,
and die another day.
If ever you should fall,
may you be brave
and your dreams
still remain;
long after all the songs
have been played
and the years
have passed away.
If ever you should fall.
If ever you should fall.

Dance Little Dancer
03:21
|
|||
When I'm on my way
my feet don't touch the ground
With my head in the clouds
all my dreams are found
On to tomorrow
and beyond its setting sun
Forever's only a word
for time that never comes
So, Dance little dancer
your answer's in your heart
Throw your head back and shout,
"Today is how it starts"
Dance little dancer
for living is an art
and wherever we are
we'll never be apart
From within these walls
I know not where I am
Everything's moved
and the skies have changed again
On to tomorrow
and beyond its waning moon
Ever after's a wish
we all hope will come soon
So, Dance little dancer
your answer's in your soul
Throw your head back and shout,
"Today, we will be bold"
Dance little dancer
for living is an art
and together we shall
never be apart

Every Single Time
03:10
|
|||
Some may come
and some may go
but, every single time make
whatever they would
and, baby, you and I may
do it again
and every single time say
this one's the end
Chorus:
and may you know right
from the start
you've got the key
to my heart
and every single time
I'll give it again
It may feel like it's
coming apart
but, you've got the key
to my heart
and every single time
I'll give it again
Bridge:
..and some times we will lack not
but, we'll still take our shots
we're not the only ones
who smile when they pray
Bridge 2:
..and some times we will have none
but, we'll still have our fun
we're not the only ones
who cry when they pray
Some may come
and some may go
but, every single time take
whatever they could
and, baby, you and I may
do it again
and every single time stay
to wait for the end
Chorus:
and may you know right
from the start
you've got the key
to my heart
and every single time
I'll give it again
It may feel like it's coming
apart
but, you've got the key
to my heart
and every single time
I'll give it again

Radio Astron
03:54
|

Calling Radio ASTRON
though far away
Signal acknowledged
coordinates displayed
If we leave in a hurry
we can make it on time
We'll bring the Saurian brandy
you bring the wine
Chorus:
We're on our way
-at warp speed-
we leave today
-message received-
and can not wait
-what we need-
A Dwingeloo party's
bound to get wild
All right!
Solo
Calling Radio ASTRON
can hear me ok?
We're on an interstellar journey
to the Milky Way
We'll be there by your morning
if we fly on through the night
wearing red carnations
to identify

In Shadows Of Tomorrow
04:33
|
|||
In all my dreams we've finally made
the best days of our lives
And in every passing moment
we do realize
All that is was borrowed from
deep inside our minds
And in shadows of tomorrow
we will find...
Chorus:
The King has lost his scepter and
the jester's gone away
The Queen she subtly smiles as
the Duchess eats some cake
The Duke is busy trolling under
clever sobriquet
And the sun will rise and fall another day
In all our lives we seek to hide
the love we keep inside
And in solitary moments
we do realize
All that is has come before
in another time
And in shadows of tomorrow
we will find...
Chorus
