well you can get things started woman but you won’t always slow them down (said you can get things started woman but you won’t always slow them down) because a man can have no conscience when he is standing proud well you can hide in pretty makeup but that don’t leave no place to run (said you can hide in pretty makeup but that don’t leave no place to run) ‘cause neither honest men nor lying drunks can stop when it has begun and if you laugh into the shadows forget the sanctuary light yes if you laugh into the shadows forget the sanctuary light even beggar men and wise men all come together in the night all together now well if you call a man criminal put him away inside of you (you can call a man criminal if he’s put away inside of you) ‘cause poor men they don’t understand and the rich won’t give a damn for a crazy woman’s blues well now the poor men they don’t understand and the rich won’t give a damn for a crazy woman’s blues

Ghost 04:11
what do you see that i can’t see what do you see that is hidden from me i’m down in a hole of dark walls and it’s so deep looking up to faces laughing down at me what do you know of living in this darkness how can you judge when your hindsight has not yet seen that the future here (here I come) could be for you or me can you feel it happening (to get you) i’m rising up (I’m in your – face) towards your laughing face and i can’t wait i just can’t wait for you to see me again can you feel it? where will you run to when the wheel of revolution comes who will you pray to as you cry will you remember my deep grave and your laughter will you protest you meant no harm will you still think it’s funny while you try to justify why you never took the time to realise that the future here …etc here i come

if i were a king tomorrow i would still be living for today and if you were a queen tomorrow i would fall to my knees and proclaim that i am the fool in the corner the disbeliever of your scheme i am the harvester of reason the doubter of the dream if i were a priest tomorrow i would not justify my faith if you were my confessor i would not crumble under your disdain that i …etc and each time you offer the temptation in your touch i’ll reach through the cracks of your benign smile to ask how much is the cost of your lovelessness how high is the price how much is the cost of your lovelessness how low do you if i were rich tomorrow would you court me as your friend and if i were dead tomorrow would you claim to have saved me at the end so how much how high how much how high i want to know how much is the cost of your lovelessness how low can you get

Pink Song 03:29
if i borrowed all my feelings from a ‘b’ movie’s re-invention and emotions dead letters sent without intent to satisfy or question would you put me in the pink wanting nothing more but the volume of my need could you put me in the pink by giving it up and i will fill it to capacity if i told you that i stole my hope from an abandoned lost and found and that i’d pawned my golden destiny for a walk in a strange dark town would you put me in the pink …etc would fascination be too much would the danger be a rush could temptation ever feel this good to be stupid and break free to touch after all you can’t resist what you can’t trust i want to be put in the pink feel the volume of my need i want to be put in the pink and i will fill it to capacity i want to be put in the pink i want to be put in the pink

Palestine 03:19
what comes of building castles on yesterdays dust ‘cause when the wind blows your vision goes your cry grows when you find you own sackcloth and ash sackcloth and ash that’s what you have sackcloth and ash why rise up rattling the chains that you made and paid for many times over why threaten to revolt when you already disgust us with your yesterdays dust you have sackcloth and ash sackcloth and ash sackcloth and ash sackcloth and ash sackcloth and ash sackcloth and ash sackcloth and ash sackcloth and ash
