Lazer City

Take the Slip n Slide to Lazer City
a magic carpet ride is all that you need
and if you feel yourself long to be dancing
they do some dancing in the city indeed
from the ivory ballrooms of Mercury
to the interstellar dives of Mars
I'm not lyin when I say that they're flyin
to the sound of esoteric guitars
in a mirrorball kind of spaceship
there's a navigator drunk on the sun
there's a taudry tart wearing a unitard
cause she thinks that she's the lucky one
All around the rings of Saturn
people working just to earn their chance
to take a rocketship to lazer city
take my hand and I will show you romance
from the ivory ballrooms of Mercury
to the interstellar dives of Mars
I'm not lyin when I say that they're flyin
to the sound of esoteric guitars
in a mirrorball kind of spaceship
there's a navigator drunk on the sun
there's a taudry tart wearing a unitard
cause she thinks that she's the lucky one
woo-hoo, lazer city!

Hello, are you the Octopus?
Could everyone one of us
be guided by the light of the damned?
You're like a symphony
and even though I see
the conducter I will suffer for you
if you will lose control
go down the rabbit hole
will you be jaded by the cadence of love?
it's like a rubiks cube
lit by a vaccuum tube, and the hourglass is passing so fast
octopus you left me on my own
to my devices with a crisis for my throne
you've got the frequency I need just to go on
forever
stop
just will you answer this-
is your love bottomless?
will it recognize a trojan horse?
or, in a tragedy, will you abandon me
and leave me on my shadowless course
it's a two way line
beyond the end of time
and it makes me wanna scream like a ghost
let's raise a glass to love, if there's a sky above
and improvise some kind of toast
Octopus remember what I said,
"You'd be cheating if you're beating a horse that's dead"
You've got the frequency I need just to go on
forever
Octopus, you've got me screaming like a ghost

Symposium For a Dreamer
04:51
|
|||
A dreamer I will always be
riding the raygun frequency
neon queen in ecstacy
of ambience and vanity
It's alright
It's outta sight
It's alright
There ain't gonna be no afterlife
there aint gonna be no heaven high
laugh at me now, but I can see
of ambience and vanity
I look good
Im gonna fly
I look good
The ladder holds but one to climb
together with love is lifes design
the hand that is led tied too believes
of ambience and vanity
It's alright
It's outta sight
It's alright
and you never saw it coming..

Paradox the Clockman
02:03
|

"Looking down on little Earth, I witnessed a great explosion. Words, colors, light, in every direction. Eyeballs glanced, tongues met, in a majestic primordial lava. It rained for months."
In diamond irrigated sacrament
I offer my tender heart to your pyre
Technicolor plexiglass is casting shadows tall and wide
can I walk the fiberoptic tightrope into suicide?
amber-colored insect orgies
atrophying every pore
somehow there's a candelabra
harvest light beyond the core
abdicate the king, castrated
plated by the golden ore
bluebird chewing down the ashes
promise not to sing no more
paradox the clockman
had a diamond made of spanish coal
savoring the flavor in a corsican made porcelain bowl
in stereo the scarecrow screamed
to a flacid ear of dying corn
and of abortion, the page was torn,
the pantheon was never born

The Emerald Archetouthis
03:54
|
|||
Given the choice of losing my voice
I'd rather not talk to you
my thoughts are wasted
and my lips remain pasted
when you're forcing your point of view
hey big spender, you're a major offender
of the laws that you set in stone
when it comes down to
having to see you
I'd rather be left alone
we all have good excuses that make us seem more than useless
Watch where you're going!
Don't you know that you're slowing us
down to slower than you?
You've gotta make it
and we've gotta take it
but don't make me a fool like you
Don't be a dick, man
your mind is like quicksand
and I feel like I'm drowning in mud
you call it talking
but I feel like walking
when you're pulling the cosmic pud
there's something about your wiring
you have to admit that it's tiring
The achetouthis, the lips that don't kiss
they're broken in two
the line in the sand, the light in my hand
is buried by you
Beautiful dreamer is an everyday schemer
for affections that you can't win
Life is the hardest when you try to be honest
with the people who's ears are tin
if I sound callous, understand that I'm Alice
in a Wonderland I can't change!
A weight on the shoulders-
with each year I get older but the narrenschiff stays the same.
The achetouthis, the lips that don't kiss
they're broken in two
the line in the sand, the light in my hand
is buried by you
Given the choice of losing my voice, I'd rather not talk to you. My thoughts are wasted and my lips become pasted when you're forcing your point of view.

The Lighthouse
03:06
|
|||
When I'm alone in my lighthouse
when the sirens sing
I fell the concentration and vibration of things
I see the triangle golden in beholding of you
setting sail for the season of the things we can do
How can I reach you?
There's a crack in the hull that I want you to know about
it's a delicate thing but I'm sure that we can work it out.
If I say I think about you
would you let me sink without you?
too much fog to get my warning through..

Tuning Fork of Neptune
03:33
|
|||
Lonliness is always laughing,
"Give me something everlasting
something they can all get hep to
like the tuning fork of neptune"
In a moment, here and gone
twilight lights the night of dawn
Surely, someone somewhere's waiting
for a boy who's concentrating
on the world inside his iris
looking for a way that's timeless
Everyone will be there soon
but until, still out of tune
Lamplight, all going white, fading from sight
does that sit right with you?
Last rites, last time around, into the ground
without a sound from you
