We can remember swimming in December
Heading for the city lights in 1975
We share in each other nearer than father
The scent of a lemon drips from your eyes
We are the people that rule the world
A force running in every boy and girl
All rejoicing in the world
Take me now – we can try
We lived an adventure love in the summer
Followed the sun till night reminiscing other times of life
For each every other the feeling was stronger
The shock hit eleven – got lost in your eyes
I can’t do well when I think you’re gonna leave me
But I know I try
Are you gonna leave me now
Can’t you be believing now
Can you remember and humanise
It was still where we’d energised
Lie in the sand and visualise like it’s 75 again
We are the people that rule the world
A force running in every boy and girl
All rejoicing in the world
Take me now – we can try
I know everything about you
You know everything about me
Know everything about us
Delta Bay
When about midnight roosters at the hip tight
Played the blues with Cool Kite
Shot a round with Heather Smite
Mixed my drinks with Mia Town
Smoked hip hop with Roger Down
Dulled the lights from 5th ave
Played the colours Jonny Par
Down at Delta Bay
Down at Delta Bay
A chord a light a paralight abyss
New tricks in moonlight
Sad sumo ,a silly sea
Counting truth death in a hollywood scene
Rimmed shot, joked lot heard the point of towns
Then I got a phone call
I saw you on the new shore
Tapping teeth in lifestyle
Moving guards like Tim Know
When I got a phone call
I saw you on new show
Tapping teeth in lifestyle
Tapping teeth in lifestyle
A chord a light a paralight abyss
New tricks in moonlight
Sad sumo ,a silly sea
Counting truth death in a Hollywood scene
Rimmed shot, joked lot heard the point of town’s cup
Leant back
Flipped up
Met the mayor for drinks up
Had a smoke, angry yoke who spoke in tongues and dreamed a lot
Never been to nowhere town always knew the mind in dock
The World
I asked the world a question
When did you begin?
I asked him of his problems
When did you go wrong?
My singing cells have power
An army by my side
You so want my mind, you trick my time
And I run around and you’re on your own
Without with without you say at home at home
How hard do you make it go
No mothers and fathers to make us anymore
No arms or eyes to shape us
Like life itself
Then a thousand red coats scorn me
You so want my mind, you trick my time
And I run around and you’re on your own
Without with without you say at home at home
How hard do you make it go
It’s just a memory
Billions and billions of lights and hearts
Befalling to embers through to coal, save from dust to dust
To wind to desert to death
I asked the world a question
When did you begin?
I asked him of his problems
When did you go wrong?
Those lead you who wake from the dreams which lies and shapes the farm in their eyes
Swordfish Hotkiss Night
Got you everything I wanted when I wasn’t sitting on it
Swordfish hotkiss night
Breathing to the beat
Push it in the wind
Calling all the life forms
Got you everything I wanted when I wasn’t sitting on it
Kings Cross hot shot
Jesus Christ on web blog
Cowboy at a cop shop
Tiger in a drug store
Days go by days
All we do is roll on
Days show my ways
When I when I when I when I
Hotdog belt donut melt
Magpie knelt by itself
Monster goons magnet moves
Diamonds in a harlot douche
Days go by days
All we do is roll on
Days show my ways
When I when I when I when I
Dream
Mansion in my mouth
Money’s gone south
Sherbet in my shout
Tongue lashed out
Tiger By My Side
Dragon lips I say goodbye
But baby don’t you cry
Be too cool to ever be
With a tiger by your side
Money talks a single side
Paid my dues to move the tide
Caught the moonlight in my shoe
With a tiger by my side
Trekking through an open mind
I got a window in my spine
Felt the miracle in my stride over
Making music in my mind
I’m blending colours for the blind
Melt the pinnacle your times not over
Rabbit trips can take their time
But fun is fun and that’s alright
Delta Bay Country
The World Without You
Diving deep as whales sleep
Counting heroes on my feet
Widow in a falling star
Healing scars with my guitar
Sirens speak to apple tree
And the tiger plays a part
Seen about a million roads
I’ve done the bong to Tokyo
I’ve been a clone and had a little luck
Swam across the golden sea a certain price of levity
It brings us up and only makes us sleep
Television changing channels telling people wearing flannels
Culture shocking walkways to the shore
Even though I never know and even though I never know
and even though I never want to know
Without You
No, no shapes at all
Nothing real or artificial
No energy or heat
No troughs there are no peaks
No hangover from last night
No shame in first light
No time there’ll be no change
No colours to rearrange
I get that feeling
When we’re apart
I get the teaching that I can’t be without you
Without you babe
No future there is no past
No slow there is no fast
No grace with which to admire
No face there is no desire
No symmetry or peace
No sirens or police
No cameras and no phones
No photographs and no tones
I get that feeling
When we’re apart
I get the teaching that I can’t be without you
Without you babe
Come on, hey now, come on, hey now, come on
Take my heart in your hands
Come on, hey now, come on, hey now, come on
Take my heart in your hands
