It was early in the morning, the first day of the week I couldn't face the faces in my personality Maybe I'll be stronger, maybe I'm a freak Maybe I'll be faithful even if I was a cheat I said, "La-la, la-la, la-la" Angels falling by your side La-la, la-la, la-la Just to keep you satisfied Oh, honey, honey, honey, breakin' through the seams Stickin' to the ceiling by the bottoms of our feet Later in the summer, I sit beside the sea I'm lookin' at your picture and it's lookin' back at me I said, "Oh, la-la, la-la, la-la" Angels falling by your side La-la, la-la, la-la Just to keep you satisfied La-la, la-la, la-la La-la, la-la, la-la Just to keep you satisfied La-la, la-la, la-la Angels falling by your side La-la, la-la, la-la Just to keep you satisfied Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh I'll keep you satisfied I'll keep you satisfied

You were my wife, my life, my hopes and dreams For you to understand what this means, I shall explain I stood all the jealousy, all the bitchin' too Yes, I'd forget it all once in bed with you Ooo darling how could we end up like this? Oh baby let me reminisce Oh and when we, woo, we stopped the hands of time You set my soul on fire, my one desire Was to love you and think of you with pride And keep you satisfied, oh baby oh baby We could not bear the mental strain Leave you? I never meant to Now you see how much you hurt me But if you ever need me, I'll be by your side Though the many happy times we had Can never really outweigh the bad Oh I'll never love nobody like I loved you baby Now it's time for us to say farewell, farewell my darlin' Maybe we'll meet down the line It's too late for you and me, it's too late for you and I Much too late for you to cry It's too late for you and me, much too late for you and I It's too late for you and me, much too late for you to cry baby Ah we tried, God knows we tried Now it's too late to live and love and ah it's too late baby It's too late for you and me, much too late for you to cry Oh oh ohhh it's much too late Well, all we can do is, we can both try to be happy

Wasted time, wasted while Guilty lying on your back Wasted talk on the telephone Why'd you do it like that? You've put it on the shelf and you won't ask why How do you know, how do you know that it's right? When you think about it, did you really try? Would you just leave it on the corner 'Til you're satisfied 'Til you're satisfied (Don't give up this time) And you don't know why (Why would you do it like that?) Ooh, you're never satisfied Playing cool, hold a fool Maybe all you needed was a friend Still confused, nothing new Why you doing it again? It was never enough 'til you know it's dead Keep wasting all your time tryna meet it there Did you need it that night, did you really care? You just leave it on the corner 'Til you're satisfied 'Til you're satisfied (Don't give up this time) And you don't know why (Why would you do it like that?) Ooh, you're never satisfied Don't give up Don't give up this time Will you just leave it on the corner 'Til you're satisfied 'Til you're satisfied (Don't give up this time) And you don't know why Ooh, you're never satisfied Don't give up Don't give up Don't give up this time Satisfied Don't give up Don't give up Don't give up this time Oh, you're never satisfied

If I never get that house That car Or be a superstar And my dreams never come true Will I be satisfied with you? And if no one ever knows my name And my gifts don't bring me fame If everything I have someday I lose Will I be satisfied with you? Don't get me wrong It'd be nice to have nice things And everybody loves the love that all those nice things bring But when the lights turn out and it's just me and you When you ask me to choose then what will I do See, if I gain the world Then I lose my soul Who sticks by my side when my years grow old? So it's not easy but when I think of you I want to be satisfied with you If I never get that house That car Or be a superstar And my dreams never come true Will I be satisfied with you? And if no one ever knows my name And my gifts don't bring me fame If everything I have someday I lose Will I be satisfied with you? It's so easy to think money changes everything But when all the money's gone will I still be happy How much did I cost me searching for celebrity? Did it cost me my life? Was it worth the price? I've been searching for so long for something real Something deeper than what I see out there Took me a while, now my search is through Jesus, I'll be satisfied with you If I never get that house That car Or be a superstar And my dreams never come true Will I be satisfied with you? And if no one ever knows my name And my gifts don't bring me fame If everything I have someday I lose Will I be satisfied with you? Satisfied with you, you Jesus, I want you, all I want When I close my eyes Will I be right by your side? Standing face to face finally Will you be satisfied with me? If I never get that house That car Or be a superstar And my dreams never come true Will I be satisfied with you? And if no one ever knows my name And my gifts don't bring me fame If everything I have someday I lose Will I be satisfied with you? Satisfied with you Satisfied with you, you

Here they come White as milk Here they come With jeans and boots Walking goofy Testing the waters We just arrived How does it work? And 24 hours later You see them entering the hall Standing tall In flip flops and sarongs Sunburns Sand between their toes They get a table And start attackin' the buffet (Tattarariraraaarariraratta Tattarariraraaarariraratta Tattarariraraaarariraratta Tattarariraraaararirara) But something is wrong The room is too small The pool is too crowdy The food not good at all The service is alright You're nice and polite But we won't come back again And you should remove a star (Tattarariraraaarariraratta Tattarariraraaarariraratta Tattarariraraaarariraratta Tattarariraraaarariraratta) And we, the waiters Bartenders and cooks Time-trial smokers Inveterate runners Angry and weary Longing for the shift to end Fighting our own assumption that The customer is always wrong Fuck you, lady! No, I didn't actually said that! But sometimes I'd really like to yell And I count to ten instead And for once I'd like to spend a quiet Summer away from work Yeah for once I'd like to spend a summer Where maybe I get served instead (Tattarariraraaarariraratta Tattarariraraaarariraratta Tattarariraraaarariraratta Tattarariraraaarariraratta Woh) And then the season ends The colleagues say goodbye I'll see you again offhand I hope it's better next time

Why don't we stop foolin' ourselves? The game is over, over, over No good times, no bad times There's no times at all Just The New York Times Sittin' on the windowsill Near the flowers We might as well be apart It hardly matters, we sleep separately And drop a smile passin' in the hall But there's no laughs left 'Cause we laughed them all And we laughed them all In a very short time Time is tapping on my forehead Hangin' from my mirror Rattlin' the teacups And I wonder- How long can I delay? We're just a habit, like saccharin And I'm habitually feelin' kinda blue But each time I try on the thought of leavin' you I stop I stop and think it over

Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit Blessed is the lamb whose blood flows Blessed are the sat upon, spat upon, ratted on Oh, Lord, why have you forsaken me? I got no place to go I've walked around Soho for the last night or so Ah, but it doesn't matter, no Blessed is the land and the kingdom Blessed is the man whose soul belongs to Blessed are the meth drinkers, pot sellers, illusion dwellers Oh, Lord, why have you forsaken me? My words trickle down From a wound that I have no intention to heal Blessed are the stained glass, window pane glass Blessed is the church service, makes me nervous Blessed are the penny rookers, cheap hookers, groovy lookers Oh, Lord, why have you forsaken me? I, I have tended my own garden much too long

Old friends, old friends Sat on their park bench like bookends A newspaper blown through the grass Falls on the round toes Of the high shoes of the old friends Old friends, winter companions, the old men Lost in their overcoats, waiting for the sunset The sounds of the city sifting through trees Settle like dust on the shoulders of the old friends Can you imagine us years from today Sharing a park bench quietly? How terribly strange to be 70 Old friends, memory brushes the same years Silently sharing the same fears

Cloudy The sky is gray and white and cloudy Sometimes I think it's hanging down on me And it's a hitchhike a hundred miles I'm a ragamuffin child Pointed finger, painted smile I left my shadow waitin' down the road for me a while Cloudy My thoughts are scattered and they're cloudy They have no borders, no boundaries They echo and they swell From Tolstoy to Tinker Bell Down from Berkeley to Carmel Got some pictures in my pocket and a lot of time to kill Hey, sunshine I haven't seen you in a long time Why don't you show your face and bend my mind? These clouds stick to the sky Like a floating question, "Why?" They linger there to die They don't know where they're going and, my friend, neither do I Cloudy Cloudy Cloudy Cloudy Cloudy
