TWO DAYS
04:27
|
|||
|
Strange how all things look the same how dead flowers love the rain
How minutes turn to days how aimless is to aim
How anything that's free is worth the pathetic price you pay
Last night heights is what you feared the most afraid of widths today
In just two days tomorrow will be yesterday
We'll smoke cigarettes deep in the ocean in just two days tomorrow will be yesterday
Our prophetic views have fueled emotions in just two days
If it doesn't break we'll fix it until it is
Someday there will come a day when the president is gay
Would that be what you'd fear the most or would that be okay?
Legalize your morphine blues can heritage fade away
Hitchhike through the open rooms the black man is here to stay
In just two days tomorrow will be yesterday
We'll smoke cigarettes deep in the ocean in just two days tomorrow will be yesterday
Voluptious to the poet's notion in just two days
If it doesn't break we'll fix it until it is
( The map is not the territory in the world of the senses where nothing is ever left incomplete. While swelling in the abyss of graceful tyranny, reflections cast shadows not easily seen)
Stained while the killer clings to fame the Zodiac bows to shame
The tally is up to 6 or more America's to blame
You can legalize your morphine blues make tomorrow yesterday
So you proved that 5 and 1 is 2 who cares anyway
In just two days tomorrow will be yesterday

BORN
05:26
|
|||
|
In the wonders of night in the silence of fields in the poor men that give
In the wings of a bird I was born to know you
In the power of words In the echoes of youth in our own naked shame through the boredom of love I was born to know you
Through shadows of hate through the depths of desire through fountains of blood through weapons of war I was born to know you
Engulfed in the bubbles of clouds in the sweat of a storm in every refuge destroyed in every kings crown I was born to love you
In the foreheads of friends in the book of the wise in the absence of faith in a kingdom of fire I was born to know you
Through infamous eyes reads the mirror of life through the beauty of sound the beauty of life I was born to know you
Engulfed in the bubbles of clouds in the sweat of a storm in every refuge destroyed in every kings crown I was born to love you

NUMBER ONE FAN
05:03
|
|||
|
Well I'd rather be one than two but prefer to be 7
I'm a number one fan but I'd rather be something
A towering genius with inexhaustible passion
To destroy those who love me and disown my own children
A man of all seasons a pleasant distraction
A true life Picasso a rock and roll god
Well I've faked it all the way
You ain't no Superman fat boy
A sensational lover with tormented illusions a romantic creator immersed in confusion
I'm the king of all fashion I deal with infinite sadness I'm a millionaire's son I'm a faggot a coward
REPEAT CHORUS

ANGELS SELL THE WORLD
03:42
|
|||
|
Human horses die while freedom yells hope prevails blood is wine
The premonition burns it's all paperback news it comes back to you
Your angels sell the world including you and I
The opiate soothes my mind the opiate soothes
Beyond the genocide beyond the moons a promise heals a cry
Sitting on a pedestal they are watching you, well I don't know
Repeat chorus
The weathered troops arrive the lesson's clear December's near and we're alive
Beyond the genocide beyond the moons
The music's still alive
Repeat Chorus

BLUE PAPER GUNS
04:11
|
|||
|
Tell me how do I get to you
You're always a block away, while you're stupid god's in Paris in the Louvre
And you think you know where it's at but you're the queen of the lost and found
You're no generation cupid your tongue's too long
Well I'm allowed to scream now did you know did you know your blue paper guns arrived
I'm allowed to scream now did you know did you know you're just a teenage democrat
And a radical diplomat slave to the trends of time
But your Mr Presley's been dead far too long
And the neighbors are sick of that, this activist role you've found
I don't think your revolution's big s*** you're all alone
Repeat Chorus
You think you know just where it's at
Religion steered you wrong so wrong
Repeat Chorus

BOY WITH A GUN
05:17
|
|||
|
There's tension in the wall
There's boredom and confusion dreadful solutions disguise the pain
I am a boy with a gun demanding revolution against the institution who crowds my space
And the world with all its stupid things it won't mind
That's why I cut my wrists and smile for a resolution
I get away from the now and avoid intrusion
And the world with all its stupid things it won't mind
Believe in what you will these opinions don't mean nothing
Can your stupid logic heal my wounds?
I'm a boy with a gun demanding revolution against the institution who crowds my space
And the world with all its stupid things it won't mind
That's why I brush my teeth and smile for a resolution
One day me and my gun are gonna make a little contribution
And the world with all its stupid things it won't mind

FIELDS OF SHAME
03:53
|
|||
|
In my life I'm doing time it's nothing sexual my love is dead you see
And my mind is bound by chains when I think I'm special but who am I to judge what's right
Save yourself you got to clean yourself you've got to reason in order to find
Free yourself you got to heal yourself you've got to witness trials of time
Crimes this need to hate it's all human nature my soul's in debt you see Repeat Chorus
In space time's a notion it's decayed debris
When you find yourself it's a sonic emotion
The world is an ocean of pain and greed
Redeem yourself you got to free yourself you got to save yourself
You will find through fields of Shame you're nothing special
Well you're nothing special

EVERYTHING'S DEAD
04:18
|
|||
|
I'm sitting all alone staring at the cracks on the floor
Awaiting the light that's waiting to take me nowhere
Now everything's dead and everything's glowing
Swallowed the pain this pain that breathes in me
These circles in my mind images of thunder roaring
Now everything's dead and everything's glowing everything's dead everything's glowing
I grab the steel demon push it in my mouth
I cock back the hammer and oh man what a sound
Repeat Chorus
Angels descending through this door in the sun
I look down on myself regretting what I've done
Now everything's dead everything's glowing
Everything's dead everything

PRAYER FOR ME
05:48
|
|||
|
We fake to make life feel special
We ain't who we claim to be
The purpose in our world of addiction is the blood that burns and we feed We're hooked on some things
Can you describe love and affection cause all we know is greed
Can you describe the word religion cause pain is always see
We're hooked on some things that are wrong
Hey I feel I'm up to something can you recite a prayer for me
Hey this demon's up to something can you recite a prayer for me
We levitate ourselves in pleasure we radiate disease
The gloom that fills our world we treasure
Mistakes that's you and me
We are hooked on some things that are wrong
Repeat Chorus

OLIVER
04:16
|
|||
|
Oliver's mind breeds denial but his heart is in bloom
True art is in the wound
The Mother Moon lays bare, her roman past forgiven
And Oliver's too
The hunt disturbed the queens affair the clergy's on fire
And the jesters amused
If a baby's thrown into the sea will the angels be forgiving
Will his majesty approve
And Oliver fills the air and spits on you
What's something when nothing is there and spits on you
It's on you
A maple headboard bears a scar of the evil in the womb
Her blue bird flies
Repent to higher ground in return your life is given
He flies to the moon
Repeat Chorus
Will false predictions change your mind will the pilgrims endure the political lie
And Oliver's despair will be naturally forgiven
He holds everything
Repeat Chorus

MOCKINGBIRDS BLEED
04:11
|
|||
|
It's radical crazy neurotic evasive and still manages to make me think twice
It talks to me about all I can be it's eclectic but yet simply divine
And in a song we unify stimulate identify it captivates my whole life
And in a song we unify instigate and purify delagates my whole life
It's faithful in stages it breathes it's amazing exotic, poetic and drinks wine We burn the oasis we spit at the faces question the meaning of life
Repeat Chorus
While mockingbirds bleed they whistle a theme and manage to make me think twice
These mountains in me are all I can see
While the renegades slowly divide
Repeat Chorus
|

THE SULTAN'S BALL
01:29
|
|||
|
Don't destroy your joy with confusion
Anything you think is how it is
Disregard the good advice you're given
You're perfectly qualified to live

ANHEDONIA
04:18
|
|||
|
Anhedonia I've been lying here for days the gloom in June has brought about new frontiers
Anhedonia we pray for that feeling the way it used to be a long time ago
Tender Is the whore who takes you to the place
Where the sun shines bright while tears of joy covered your face
Ten shoulders away your Judas crawls
A poet dreams a dream to carry on
Anhedonia it's like castles in the sand a willow bends a violent hand subtract the years
Anhedonia here we go again the way it used to be a long time ago
Tender Is the whore who takes you to the place where the sun shines bright while tears of joy covered your face
Ten shoulders a virgin crawls a poet dreams a dream to carry on Anhedonia here it comes again

Chris Alvy & The Super Fuzz Miami, Florida
Described by one morning TV show host as “Scooby-Doo meets The Blues Brothers”, The Super Fuzz make no apologies about wearing their classic rock sensibilities on their sleeve while infusing 70’s-style production reminiscent of the post-punk movement. Their debut CD, Art Noise, is a 12-song reflection of the group’s unabashed love of guitar rock and indie pop. ... more
