Pity We

Pity we

Those of us

Who are

Enslaved

Undone

Lost

To the figures of

Beauty

Pity us

Shake your heads

In all your wisdom

But in those

Shining moments

When we touch

The figures of light

Heaven is unleashed

Such shining moments are

Equal

To a lifetime of

Despair

Pity we the lost

Pity us

The fools

Shake your head

And smile that

You are not

Considered

Among us

Father and Son

'Papa, when will the pain end?'
'When we die, my Son.'
'Papa, please don't let the pain end.'
'That is what we call love son. At least we have the jazz music.'
'Yes, Papa, it soothes. And the dancing girls and cocaine aren't bad either.'
(pause)
'Papa, our life is pretty good, isn't it?'
'Shut up my Son.'

She liked me until
She didn't
And I
Can't stop
Liking
Her

Long for you (lyrics for a song)

Like a jaguar
Waiting for a kill
Like a junkie
Looking for a thrill
I will always
Almost and always
Long for you

Like an artisan working
At the wheel
Like a prostitute yearning
For that which is real
I will always
Almost and always
Call for you

And when we walk and pass on bye
And fail to look in
One another's eye                > Chorus
I will always
Almost and always
Yearn for you

Like a scorpion
About to sting
Like a errant knight
Without a king
I will always
Almost and always
Call for you

Like a soldier itching
On the trigger
Like a traitor yearns to
Point the finger
I will always
Almost and always
Lust for you

And when we walk and pass on bye
And fail to look in
One another's eye                > Chorus
I will always
Almost and always
Yearn for you

Like a farmer who
Works his till
Like a starving man
You cannot fill
I will always
Almost and always
Long for you
