My baby makes me proud Lord, don't she make me proud She never makes a scene By hangin' all over me in a crowd 'Cause people like to talk Lord, don't they love to talk But when they turn out the lights I know she'll be leavin' with me And when we get behind closed doors Then she lets her hair hang down And she makes me glad that I'm a man Oh, no one knows what goes on behind closed doors My baby makes me smile Lord, don't she make me smile She's never far away Or too tired to say, "I want you" She's always a lady Just like a lady should be But when they turn out the lights She's still a baby to me 'Cause when we get behind closed doors Then she lets her hair hang down And she makes me glad that I'm a man Oh, no one knows what goes on behind closed doors Behind closed doors

Sick and tired of stupid people trying to get one over on me I have heard it all before "Times", we say, "they are a changing, everybody's getting better" So what's this guy cringing for? He says: "What you do behind closed doors Doesn't really bother me at all" I don't care what you do in the privacy of your home As long as it's not in front of me I don't care what you do in the privacy of your home As long as I don't have to see He says: "Please don't say that I'm closed-minded Some of my best friends are like you And I don't really give a damn" He says: "I am happy that you're happy You don't have to prove it to me" And then he turns and kisses the girl on his arm, and says: "What you do behind closed doors Doesn't really bother me at all" I don't care what you do in the privacy of your home As long as it's not in front of me I don't care what you do in the privacy of your home As long as I don't have to see We came here for a quiet drink We're not trying to prove a point about anything And we don't thrive on shoving it in your faces Shoving it in your faces all the time What you do behind closed doors Doesn't really bother me at all I don't care what you do in the privacy of your home As long as it's not in front of me I don't care what you do in the privacy of your home (I don't wanna hear it anymore) As long as I don't have to see As long as I don't have to see

My baby makes me proud Lord, don't he make me proud He never makes a scene Hanging all over me in a crowd 'Cause people like to talk Lord, don't they love to talk But when they turn out the lights I know he'll be leaving with me And when we get behind closed doors Then we let our hair hang down Then he makes me glad that he's my man And no one knows what goes on behind closed doors My baby makes me smile Lord, don't he make me smile I'm never far away Or too tired to say I want to I'm purring like a kitten When he's out in public with me But when they turn out the lights He brings out the tiger in me And when we get behind closed doors We can let our hair hang down Then he makes me glad that he's my man Oh, and no one knows what goes on behind closed doors Behind closed doors

I told myself to go Under ten feet of snow I couldn't wipe the smile off my face Under tainted light I did embrace A medicated mind Never knew what it could find But when one day the colour turned to grey Couldn't feel a thing and on my own again These eyes staring back at me Darker than I've ever seen So far away from home Every place I go So far away from home Everywhere I know A thick fog which I can't see through A thick fog which I can't see through Where be thou destiny? Lost in a state of sleep? Tried to fly away so I could think Ever since I proceeded to sink Onto an empty road Every step more alone I lay awake another night to scream and say (I) can't believe it's all turned out this way Now all I see are shades, shades of grey So far away from home Every place I go So far away from home Everywhere I know These eyes staring back at me Darker than I've ever seen A new cityscape, new faces I find I covert this new light to shine You found me so soon Melancholy moon, I wish you would just go away Go away! Go away! Sleep. Go to sleep Just say goodbye Oh how are we feeling now? What about that black cloud that keeps following ya? Don't you think it would be more fun In a world of bubble gum? Welcome to the maze, the mist and the haze It's gotten so misty in here, it's hard to see properly Welcome to the maze, the mist and the haze This world just keeps getting darker Darker by the day, and all I see Don't even think, don't even try and think! Come on, come on! We gotta fly away, fly away! I don't know where we're going just get on the fucking plane! Where be the colours I knew? Where be the flowers I used to know, where so? When it looks like it's over And hope is just a word You may walk in limbo into the snow You may feel like a shadow, like nobody is home When you walk in shadows Under the snow Under the snow Under the snow Under the snow

Flogging the horses Report in the office Camels walking free Drinking honey tea Flogging the horses Report in the office Camels walking free While they're drinking honey tea Let's encourage the freedom of speech Then kill it with a bullet down on it's knees Rampant remains, shattered in disdain Your work is gone, the trauma lives on Rampant remains, shattered in disdain Your work is done, the trauma lives on Let chickens escape their torturous fate Let the eagles fly in the wild Let knowledge be learnt from the chosen child (jesus) Wait for something wild You talk of the sane, so show is the way This world is ours to feed But then you open the door and Everyone hits the floor Why should these people bleed? No sign of the boots To free and to loot, all they can see We travelled so far, we travelled so far Boots on the loose, goose in a noose Why all this envy and hate? Shape me a tooth, to replace like a spoof Still it looks real all the same Still it looks real all the same Let apes roam free Let people be (let people be) What they are and are Nine to to five ain't the same in the wild Nine to to five ain't the same in the wild Nine to to five ain't the same in the wild Let apes roam free Let people be (let people be) What they are and are Nine to to five ain't the same in the wild Nine to to five ain't the same in the wild Nine to to five ain't the same in the wild Washed up crows and unwashed clothes The mile isn't done 'til you run through the hum Empty shoes drowned by those fools All together, bitter weather It's the same as ever, it's the same as ever, when is never? (Pecking, pecking) this week we weep Then back asleep we fall Into the same old shoe Into the same old shoes, you fall into The same old shoe You fall into the same old shoe

I'm on top of a mountain above the clouds I came here to find my smile again I'll have to accept it's lost, lost in the cosmos No! Well what are you gonna do now? No light in the well It's hard to climb those slippery walls You know you ain't got wings attached to your back No light in the well Wake up it's not too late You need to find a crack of light to follow Bellow the wall of ice you go It's gotten so dark it must be hard to see It seems like you're falling further from yourself You're not the only one to feel this way You got to find a way through Remind yourself you can be strong, Try and find a place where you belong! Look you found a crack in the ice Now you need to take control before it swallows you whole! Soon enough I travelled through a tunnel underneath the sea Went to a country new to my eyes A beautiful lady comes in to my sight Try to converse somewhat Soon enough she tells me I have sad eyes and walks away No light in the well It's so hard to climb those slippery walls You know you ain't got any wings attached to your back No light in the well Wake up it's not too late You need to find a crack of light to follow Bellow the wall of ice you go It's gotten so dark it must be hard to see It seems like you're falling further from yourself You're not the only one to feel this way Not gotten out of bed for days now, The pain, it's gone right to the bone If you don't wake you may never be Able to stand on your own two feet again For all the waves of weeping wounds For all the days that came too soon Searching for cracks of light! Look you found a crack in the ice Now you need to take control before it swallows you whole Look you found a crack in the ice

When you know the red in the fire of the light You cannot settle for the shadows that dance through the night I found myself in a forest clear Surrounded by wooden animals A rallying call, a rallying call Someone please make some sense of all The flower beings and all those I have known Will I meet anyone like that again? Can't predict the future Can't lament for every day I spent Wishing I knew then what I know now How so? When you know the red In the fire of the light You can't settle for shadows That dance through the night I found myself deep within a dream Holding my love so beautiful Then I woke up, all alone Trying to make some sense of all The flower beings and how I must now grow Will I meet any being like that again? My eyes are always open But my wings have not been well at all Remembering her smiling in the rain I said When you know the red In the fire of the light You can't settle for shadows That dance through the night Now all the leaves have fallen Sitting on a bench here in deep November Midday rising Chattering away I look into her deep brown eyes and remember How it felt, when she flew away But also when she walked into my life Silly man kept on looking 'round the corner Then it all became too late No It didn't get any better (better) No, not better than this It doesn't get any better (better) See our eyes entwine How our hearts can shine Now our skies align together Well, I rue the day Yes, I rue the day Without words When you know the red In the fire of the light You can't settle for shadows That dance through the night When you know the red In the fire of the light You can't settle for shadows That dance through the night
