Chatte Lunatique
Chatte la-la-la-lunatique
It's a little scary when you see the sign
You picture him hairy and quite mean inside your mind
Try your luck, open the gate
You temp the beast and now you're tempting fate
Chatte La-la-la-lunatique
Chatte Lunatique
C'est un peu effrayant quand vous voyez le panneau
Vous l'imaginez tout poilu and vraiment mauvais (dans vot tetes)
Bonne chance si vous ouvrez le portail
Tentez la bete, et vous tentez (le destin)
Chatte.....

Ahnanananananonono
Coast to coast
Here we go
Get your things
Pack your clothes
This is all
I wanna do
We're moving down the road
Move around
Play a show
Where we now?
I don't know
Could have sworn
I thought I saw a sign to get us home
Hey-ey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
Nananananananono
Got the treats
Not to eat
We'll get to that
Put up your feet
Sit back relax
In your seat
We're moving down the road
Crazy man
Drum in hand
Always wants to start a band
Loves to move across the land
We're moving down the road
Hey-ey-ey………

EIGHTY five years in my head
still alive and you're killing them dead
you said you liked it
you said you liked it you did
and still we move down the road
i think the city's still where I'll go
the FUTURE is coming now
seventeen times I told you
melody winds, unfolds you
the FUTURE is coming now
seventeen times I told you
melody winds
flip the gear right to reverse
did you hear?
there's no time to rehearse
you said you liked it
you said you liked it you did
and still we move down the road
i think the city is where i’ll go

what’s that I hear you say?
under the weather
you’ll climb above today
let them laugh it’s alright
soon they’ll be sorry
you’ll show them what it’s like
what’s that I heard you say?
go tell the doctor
please do not delay
now watch me fade to black
don’t turn around
you’ll miss me comin’ back
Percy Thrills the moondog
he’s howlin’ at you
Percy Thrills the moondog
so watch what you do
Percy Thrills the moondog
your head is spinnin’, and face turnin’ blue
Percy Thrills the moondog
Snick Snack Snorum
nobody’s waitin’ for ‘em
but bet your buck he’s waiting for you
bag of gullyfluff
you cannot get enough
Eureka time to break on through!
Digitonium
what have we all become?
just a virus in computer land
whiz bang wizard song
what is he waiting on?
that presto magic slight of hand
Percy Thrills the moondog
he’s howlin’ at you
Percy Thrills the moondog
so watch what you do
Percy Thrills the moondog
your head is spinnin’, and face turnin’ blue
Percy Thrills the moondog

The One And Lonely
05:27

Oh my love
I feel it for the first time
From above
I'm droppin’ fast I'm fallin
Oh my love
I dream it for the last time
Dream of
A home that I've been calling
Livin’ inside a place
Where the emptiness and space
Make me vanish but a trace still left behind
Swimmin’ inside a world
Where the loneliness just swirls
Around my head and I can't make it through this time
I turn it up
I burned it up!
I know you know feel like I feel and ya
Can't get enough
I've had enough!
You know I know it's true
I turn it up
I burned it up!
I know you feel like I feel and ya
Can't get enough
You called the bluff
You know I know it's you
Oh my love
I drink it for the first time
Drink up
The thing that I've been chasin’
Oh my love
I leave it for the last time
Last time
I saw you I was wasting away
Gettin’ hard to breathe
And I wish that I could leave
But the door just seems to move farther away
The faster that I run
The more I become undone
And tomorrow's not a promise - not today
I won't fall in love with another
Long as I am alive
This I swear to you my love
I swear it on my life
I won't play around with another
Till the day that I die
Once or twice I've stumbled but then
I get back in line
I'll never dance with another
Long as the sky is above
That's my promise to the one
The only lonely love

I see this life flash before my eyes
a million suns tend to hypnotize
cactus make me crazy I realize
growin' helped to shrink me down to size
I realize
sun is beatin' down upon my shoulders
world keep spinning round as I get older, yea
move across the ground, towards the boulders
shaman tell me now, gimme some orders
I need some water
he said know not what you know
go only where you go
you gotta tiptoe through the crypto
set your mind countdown for liftoff
now when you're locked up by calypso
keep on tip toe'n thru the crypto
oh if you're king for a day it'll haunt you all your life
but you're the gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme that feelin' type
and then you don't give a damn If you kill the desert blue
but you can't be a man if you cannot tell the truth
tell me who are you?
because you know not what you know
you go only where I go
you gotta tiptoe through the crypto
set your mind countdown for liftoff
now when you're locked up by calypso
keep on tip toe'n thru the crypto
|

it's a brand new day
so tell me what you feel inside
far away
someone's thinking you should feel alright
now give it away to somebody you don't know
then you'll hear them say, this is how we all go
you know we hurt ourselves in the places that we take love
we've got to put ourselves into the places that we make love
i'm PICKIN’ UP WHERE YOU LEFT OFF
‘cause this is how I feel
let's make it real and I said I love
and why would I waste your time?
some would say
you're waiting just to see the light
but your brightest day
is coming at you on your darkest night
then you give it away to somebody you don't know
then you hear them say, this is how we all go
you know we hurt ourselves in the places where we take love
we've got to put ourselves into the places where we make love

Baa doo ba, doo ba, be doo be doo
Baa doo ba, doo ba
She's talking pretty loud
There's a trace of a doubt in my mind
Should I leave the twisted fantasy behind
She said I need it now
I am sweet don't be sour
Keep it coming coming out
I will be there to receive I said
(oooooohhh)
What do I care?
See the wind in her hair
After a while if I stare
I can see she's the one who…
Don't mean a thing
In the morning I will sing
In the shower 12 hours
I'm going back to normal again
Early in the morning
I receive a warning
My brain is still yawning
My body's got to go
It's no laughing matter
My teeth start to chatter
It's cold but I would rather be playing in the snow I said
(ooooohh)
What do I care?
See the wind in her hair
After a while if I stare
I can see she's the one who…
Don't mean a thing
In the morning I will sing
In the shower 12 hours
I'm going back to normal again
(aaaaaahh)
What do I care?
See the wind in her hair
After a while if I stare
I can see she's the one who…

night swimming
night swimming
now's the time to pantomime you're way to sleep
your dreams get goin'
life's a coin
(now flip it)
down around that roundabout you're counting sheep
you snooze along
life's a song
(now sing it)
you tread water long enough
to see your son and daughter strong and tough
(men and women)
you feel sonic splendor move
into your deep subconscious and your thoughts improve
(nightswimmin')
just float along
you’re goin’ where you've gone a thousand times it won't be wrong
(nightswimming)
idolize those vitalizing eyes and feet
the vision's clear
the movement's here
(you love it!)
nevermind that passing time, it's never been
all is none
none's a ton
(I feel it)
you've learned lessons time and time again
lessen the rest of those messages they can't be sent
you've failed the best of those tests and yes you can repent
for things you meant to do differently it never ends
(start over)
just float along
you’re goin’ where you've been a thousand times it won't be wrong
you've got the gist, yea
you've never missed a thing, now have you? are you feeling stronger?

If I Ever Fall Asleep
06:33
|

I'm running circles in my mind
I'm getting closer all the time
And yet the faces chase me still
I'm running out of things to say
These pills won't make it go away
The hounds are nipping at my heels
If I ever fall asleep
I pray my soul stays out of reach
And if I die before I wake
That's one more soul the devil may take
I'm shoutin’ at my shadow
I'm shakin’ in my skin
The television's mocking me
But I won't let him win
I'm dancin’ without moving
I'm singin’ without sound
I'm naked and I'm hungry
And there's evil all around
Gotta keep, gotta keep running away,
Gotta keep on running away
Why are all the colors turning red?
It's getting crowded in my head
I'll keep the lights on just in case
And you, you look deliciously divine
Your features perfectly aligned
The gloom sits pretty on your face
There's mozart in the madnes
There's sickness in my skin
I'm thrilled about the sadness
And I can never win
There's nothing worth improving
There's nothing going on
There’s nothing that is soothing
And silence is a song

Life In The City
05:17
|

Livin’ day to day
People find a way
To smile and look to the future
They've got more to say
And got no time to play
So they think, but it's just an illusion
Life in the city
Nights in the string of lights
Life in the city
Blind in the spotlight
From an eagle’s eye
Nothin’ but time to fly
Lookin’ down it’s just a disaster
Years pass lookin back
You caught that heart attack
Each day is just goin’ faster
Life in the city
Nights in the string of lights
Life in the city
Fighting the good fight
Holdin’ our heads up high
Livin’ the good lie
Holdin’ our secrets near
Fearin’ the good fear
Heads are spinning
Lights are dimming low
No one winning
Feelin’ the thinning hope
Time stops moving
Can't stop losing now
No improving
Have to survive somehow
Life in the city
Nights in the string of lights
Life in the city
Fighting the good fight
Life in the city
Days in the ring of fire
Life in the city
Blind in the spotlight

Turn outside the inside-out-cry-baby
Now outshout the out crowd ouch our lady
Don't get pissed you're twisted and misunderstood
Just get tough you look it and you're feelin you're feelin good
Get out the womb
Cut the chord
Test what's next and guess all the best you can be
Just expect the rest to connect what you see
Twist and turn the worm squirms and burns through the wood
Just get tough you look it your heads reelin', you're bed's feelin good
Get out the womb
Cut the chord
snip, snip
uh oh!

once there was a simpler time
when he had his own little island
had it all to himself
never knew it could all go away
but he'll soon learn that nothing is here to stay
yes it all goes away
oh no the poor little soul
won't make it too long
his world is not so big
and he is not so strong
dodo, the poor little soul
where did he go so wrong?
guess he couldn't keep to himself
when the men came along
no! dodo, dodo, dodo
Oh no! dodo, dodo, dodo
hey hey, chop chop, dodo
hurry up or get the boot
nice nice, one big no no in 1662
went down east of Africa
not so much that he could do
go, go Mr. Dodo bird
bye bye finally fly the coup
koo-koo, koo-koo
hated being stuck down on the ground
had to duck and to quietly creep around
don't make a sound
maybe he just got fed up and tired
dreading moments of screaming and guns being fired
he was fed up and tired, yea
oh no the poor little soul
won’t make it too long
his world is not so big
and he is not so strong
dodo, the poor little soul
where did he go so wrong?
guess he couldn’t keep to himself
when the men came along
no! dodo, dodo, dodo
Oh no! dodo, dodo, dodo
Oh no! dodo, dodo, dodo
Oh no! dodo, dodo, dodo
hey hey, chop chop, dodo
hurry up or get the boot
nice nice, one big no no in 1662
went down east of Africa
not so much that he could do
go, go Mr. Dodo bird
bye bye finally fly the coup
koo-koo, koo-koo
gogo, dodo, gogo, yea
gogo, dodo, gogo, yea

(Heeeeyyy)
From the top of the tree
Everything looks fine to me
Ive got room and board for free
So what could go wrong?
If I fall asleep
Then an enemy may creep
If I rise then he'll retreat
This is what's been going on, I said
Monkey fingers
Gonna snap you into place
Monkey fingers
Gonna slap you in the face
Monkey fingers
Gonna snap you into place
Jungle's pretty warm
In the ocean there's a storm
Yes I'm feeling pretty torn
Perhaps the city's where I'll go
This is how I feel
Let's make a deal, I said
Monkey fingers
Gonna snap you into place
Monkey fingers
Gonna slap you in the face
Monkey fingers
Counting up to ten
Monkey fingers
Let's count down again
hey hey hey hey hey
Monkey fingers
Gonna snap you into place
Monkey fingers
Gonna slap you in the face
Monkey fingers
Counting up to ten
Monkey fingers
Let's count down again
