Ooooh ooooh ooh ohh
Ooooooh ooooh
If the Mayan calendar is correct
We haven’t that much time left
So cherish whatcha got
Before you lose it
Chorus:
Gratitude
Gratitude
Be grateful precious jewel
Gratitude
Gratitude
Be grateful precious and true
Do make the eye contact
Do float on to reflect
You are not your body
‘Tis a ruse yes
If ya die
A painful death
Skin slowly curling off in clumps
Do be sure to flash back
At a life well lived
(Chorus)
Who brings around valour anymore?
Who wants what’s not sold in any store?
Uh-oh Uh-oh
Uh-oh Uh-oh oh oh
Gratitude
Gratitude
Be grateful precious and true
Gratitude
Gratitude
Be grateful
Be grateful be grateful
You are not your body

The Staff
03:13

All the flowers that bore our name entwined
Have now been crushed by falling snow
They will never reappear the same way
or be as vibrant as before
Chorus:
Tears to tears to pain to pain
When will I be healed again?
Tears to tears to pain to pain
When will I be healed again?
So I run to the whorehouse
For something to fill me
But it never quite fills me
No it never quite fills me
But it fills up my tab
(Chorus)
So I go to the hillside
And become a Shepard
Yes I become a Shepard
And wear a picture of you
Around my neck

You Are My Beacon
04:46
|
|||
You were there when my heart was broken
You caught every bloody shard
Wiped the shame from bad words spoken
Smooth the edges from the hard
Let me hitch a ride upon your wing
Soothe emotion illuminating
Made me realize when I fell
There’s still water in the well
Like a bridge over nature run its course
You show me the many doors
Chorus:
You are my beacon
You keep on shinin’
You are my beacon
Oh Gossamer you are my light
The first door led right into a brick wall
The second door is where I made the call
Got no reply but my lonesome echo
Represent dim prelude to a fall
You’re the third door

Nite Magick
03:55
|
|||
Forget advice from friends
Though I might bring 'em along
To help me lay it on
Silhouettes then gone
Don’t forget the whims
Velvet on the skin
Chorus:
Nite Magic
Nite Magic Mystery within
Nite Magic Legs Partin’
I want my
Nite Magic
Offered up to me
Ooooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooh ooh
Ooh oohh
Ooh la la
Ooh la la
Flashin' fluorescent light
Flickers faulty overhead
And it’s alternatin'
There is no God
With there is God
Velvet on the skin
(Chorus)
Work it through the veils now
Work it through the veils
(rept.)
Aaaah ahhh
(rept.)

The Precise line of the Surgeon
Don’t shake
Let the anesthetic take hold
Count to ten to never finish
Your face will soon be gone
There is no recovery
Trapped in other motives
Infection is not literal
For the blade is sterile
(X4)
Awake
The anesthetic drifts cold
Unfamiliar surroundings
Dimly realize what’s done
Finding mirror to see
All one can do is scream
Infection is not literal
For the blade is sterile
(X6)
The Precise line of the Surgeon

Dad
03:17
|
|||
When I could have had no dad
A moment least expected
Things took a wonderful turn
And you came right along
Although I never called you Dad
I always thought of you
And will always think of you
As Dad

Cage Without A Key
02:51
|
|||
Cage without a key
All those young girls trapped there
Cage without a key
Cage without- A key
You can dress it up in fancy words
But meditation’s really solitary
You don’t give them rehabilitation
Just sewing and hairdressing lessons
(Chorus)
In there for crimes committed
Crimes are still being committed
So this is how the law works
Do you know how much this country
Spends on pets alone
What about our teens?
Tell the people - You can’t deprive them
Tell them - You can’t deprive them
They have to know - You can’t deprive them
Of a normal life
(Chorus X2)
All those young girls
All those young girls
All those young girls
(X4)
All those young girls

Laying Low
03:55
|
|||
You weren’t worth the pedestal I put you on!
And I’m Layin’ Low
Yes I’m Layin’ Low
With my friends
On the street
And up you appear here
Ain’t you caused enough damage
Sick of seeing you around
As I look past you try to look in
Well I’m just lookin’ to get even
Why don’t you get a mask
Some sort of disguise
So I wont recognize you
Marking those lingering traces
When you’re invading my places
And I can keep layin’ low
Keep layin’ low
With my friends
On the street
Spilt sour milk delusions
Whispering shrugs
Don’t get so enamored no more
But at least I see eye to eye
Now I know when to fly
High
And I’m layin' low
Layin’ oh so low
With my friends
On the street

Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Heyyyyy
The Comedown Takes forever
Makes you whisper plainly “Never”
(X2)
Why d'ja go
Overload
Repeating that cycle yet again
And your losing
Control
Getting harder to rewind
From the bends
You’re Gummin’ You’re Gummin’
You’re Gummin’ You’re Gummin’
You’re Gummin’ You’re Gummin’
You’re Gummin’ You’re Gummin’ Up the works
Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey hey hey Heyyyyy
The Comedown takes forever
Makes you whisper plainly never
You keep filling that hole
But you’re diggin' too far
This had to end
Just so’s ya know
If you need someone
ya got a friend
You’re Gummin’ You’re Gummin’
You’re Gummin’ You’re Gummin’
You’re Gummin’ You’re Gummin’
You’re Gummin’ You’re Gummin’ Up the works
The Comedown takes forever

Soft and Gentle
I am a lamb in spring
(X2)
Oh yes I am
Oh yes I am
Soft and Gentle
I am a lamb in spring
Oooooooooh Tenderloin
More than just a fable
(rept.)
It doesn’t have to be hard
So hard
It doesn’t have to be hard
(X4)
Oooooooooh Tenderloin
More than just a fable
Ah ahh ah ah ah ah Tenderloin
