Zero gravity, can you dig it I search for things I can't find at home Damn, how'd this planet get so big I can't describe it to you by videophone It's canals on Mars or the stars in the sky At least the ones you can see Nothing compares to the pleasure my little treasure of being with you my lovely I spent a year on Europa hoping to find the sunken city floating at the bottom of the ocean whoever thought Ch'tulhu on ice could be so pretty Space Time Archaeology watering the roots of our family tree whether it's walking through bazaars or playing guitar under the stars You'll see that nothing compares to being with you my lovely Martinis on the beach on Monster Island well you know they grow em big back in Japan They've been testing at the west end since the 50s Caught it on camera in my catamaran Front row seats you and me to supernova quantum racers mean we've got all of the time Catch the Yeti in Tibet then smoke a Turkish cigarette Well you know darlin the pleasure was all mine

I don't need time to really know what time it is I don't need a key for you to set me free I don't need lies just show me what the truth is I don't need labels in order to define me I don't need fame to be somebody loved now I don't need money in order to have company I don't need hell to know what's up above I don't need motivation to know about apathy When can we get back to just being friends sharing a laugh knowing our love will never end try doing it my way and then you'll see that there's no need for anger or your apathy Working together at the rainbow's end hand in hand and there's a message to be sent try doing it my way and then you'll see that love is free and so are we I don't need kudos to know when I've done the right thing I don't need euros to know what I'm worth I don't need a thief cause I got nothing to lose I don't need whiskey, heh okay let's not go nuts When can we get back to just being friends sharing a laugh knowing our love will never end try doing it my way and then you'll see that there's no need for anger or your apathy Working together at the rainbow's end hand in hand and there's a message to be sent try doing it my way and then you'll see that love is free and so are we

I'm gonna launch myself into orbit baby around your satellite On the trip of a lifetime what say we put our bodies together then we ignite I'm giving it all I got to you my Queen of the Night I'm giving it all I got if love's the final frontier then take a moon shot Come on take a chance with me be my token because you're good luck Up here there's no such things as gravity sometimes the Earth that sucks I'm giving it all I got to you my Queen of the Night I'm giving it all I got if love's the final frontier take a moon shot Slip away from the boundaries of the sky don't ask me why Major Tom never knew what he had seen Take you to a place you've never been Being together with you is like floating weightless and I am lovin it Let the Earth fall away it's OK it's soul mateless Our time is infinite I'm giving it all I got to you as bright as the Sun I'm giving it all I got what once was two must now become one

The Sun Dome 04:23
lyrics

Said the world is bringing me down and it's getting rough I can't take no more I know I've had enough There's no way it can rain and be gray For 365 days gotta get out the jungle before I'm surrounded Gotta get out now before I drown Gotta get somewhere I hope I'll be close Take off these soaking wet clothes I head about something called a Sun Dome It's like a solar-powered free zone It's on this planet to keep us sane Give a lost soul a place to stay out of the rain Time on the horizon says it's up ahead Rain in my brain I feel about dead Never mind the water pouring onto the floor Step out of the shadows and open the door parting the clouds safe now after the rain sun rules again There ain't no place like home with my baby in the sun dome Out of the ruins and back into the big scheme I'm wide awake and breaking for a sweet dream Pay to play or get out of my way I won't be led astray, no not today Sky moving alive it's got ahold of me Clouds ain't alive it's a conspiracy Pouring rain down just like an open bar And I smoke it right down just like I smoke a cigar I head about something called a Sun Dome It's like a solar-powered free zone It's on this planet to keep us sane Give a lost soul a place to stay out of the rain Time on the horizon says it's up ahead Rain in my brain I feel about dead Never mind the water pouring onto the floor Step out of the shadows and open the door parting the clouds safe now after the rain sun rules again There ain't no place like home with my baby in the sun dome

Out of the silent plant we're dancing to a cosmic groove I'm weightless jumping watching her bumping Any way you move I sling that ring while you're shaking that thing you bring my soul feels good We're traveling time's unravelling just like I knew it would Next stop next galaxy over and I can take you too I couldn't live without you, it's just this thing I do When the beat is cooking got you hooking catch me looking at you Let's get out of here without a doubt we got some things to do I come with race I'm standing in place and ain't no chance of going back Retrace my case and straightlaced face off the beaten track Getting naughty, what a hottie watching you girl as you shake your body Don't stream my scheme to get on your team yeah girl you know what I mean I wanna see into your inner space, into your inner space

Tokyo Dope 04:39
lyrics

Move it on over to the bamboo grove Four winds carry the screams of the bullet train From Noheji Bay to Tokyo 36 views of Mt. Fuji mark my way And the rain pours down in Gunma Prefecture Washing away all the lies Though I am one with the rising sun I am old and all places grow the same to my eyes Green dragon protects the red-sailed ship Shogun shouldering shamisen Woodcut wonder of lunar eclipse On the wall of the opium den fulfilling a promise to a friend, I came to Kyoto Time flies over our heads like the crane Now 36 views of Mt. Fuji are all I know Filling the world that waits outside my windowpane Green dragon protects the red-sailed ship Shogun shouldering shamisen Woodcut wonder of lunar eclipse On the wall of the opium den and the rain pours down . . . and the rain pours down . . . and the rain pours down . . .

Bullet Ballet 04:20
lyrics
buy track
Everything they say is a lie When everyone around you is a spy Clandestine meetings searching for secrets ever so fleeting Love her but don't look her in the eye Assignment a trial by fire and design Globe hopping and heart stopping two fates intertwined Death stalks your path from Athens to Southampton Silent as the grave you're a slave to the life Now you're caught in the crossfire too late to conspire Cause the gunman's put you out on the vine The Bullet's Ballet is one that betrays the confidence of colleagues and friends at the end of the day your life in dwindling away and it's only you and Death at the end But the game has begun and they've already won, so why do you come ready to play? Lay down your cards, see the Queen of Broken Hearts Her eyes shades of lies mixed with grey When the enemy is near you no longer fear Because when Death comes to visit, she'll stay The Bullet's Ballet

Funeral Rain 04:04

I remember the day I got the news Half asleep and oh how sorry i felt for you Your voice breaking like glass trying not to cry I know it's hard to say goodbye Our heads bowed in the funeral rain As the leaves wash down the drain There are some things that can't be explained away And my friend that's OK everything dies and everything ends the only constants are our friends so many dead ends in this life Strife between men, and not enough time But at the end we stand all together and Our heads bowed in the funeral rain As the leaves wash down the drain There are some things that can't be explained away And my friend that's OK

Gone gone gone now she's gone This is me not caring Blow off my farewell and you know for all I care you can go straight to hell My heart was torn out and the space inside is gone forever There's nothing left for us together and if I ever thought you wise it's just because I didn't use my eyes There's nothing you can show me That I didn't know, see And just when things can't get no worse they do It's like nursing a hangover, moreover why don't I learn from my mistakes, for God's sakes You'd think I'd wise up, have enough and wise up surprise I tried and all I got was thrown up But at least now I've grown up Command respect like a man, I stand and demand I got it right, gone gone gone, now she's gone.

Well you know schmucks come in pairs like socks Or one eyed jacks smart as a box of rocks Chocolate guardian comes to clean your clock Why do we yell when we could sit and talk Frankenstein asked his four armed wife She said not my type baby not in this life Had a friend who found out the hard way Even a confidant gotta leave someday Don't make this a conspiracy When we both been sleeping with the enemy Seven soldiers of victory You got to walk before you can be free Seven men holding seven sins seven ways times seven to begin again seventh heaven will you get in or come back to find the peace within Frankenstein asked his four armed wife said not my type baby not in this life had a friend who found out the hard way even a confidant gotta leave some day
