Two Monkeys

If there never was a beginning
Will there be an end?
For children of the world to wait for
Nothing keeps the same shape
Floating back and forth
Changes operate in strange ways
Everything was forever until it was no more
Changes operate in strange ways
Everything was forever until it was no more
Take my hand, let's sway together
Two monkeys in love (two monkeys in love)
Nothing stays in the same place
Number one becomes two
What used to be south is now north
Floating back and forth
Changes operate in strange ways
Everything was forever until it was no more
Changes operate in strange ways
Everything was forever until it was no more
Take my hand, let's sway together
Two monkeys in love (two monkeys in love)
Take my hand, let's sway together
Two monkeys in love
Take my hand, let's sway together
Two monkeys in love (two monkeys in love)
Take my hand, let's sway together
Two monkeys in love

Birthday

A day like all the other days
Nothing has changed
But you smiled at me
Have I finally done something right?
Not sure what did you mean
But it feels like I’m seven
Hey, it’s your birthday
Hey, it’s your birthday
Sadness of the world
Doesn’t matter anymore
You never cook for me
But today you’re so kind
I wish it was my birthday
Every day and every night
How long has it been
Since we danced for no reason?
How long has it been
Since we did something for fun?
Hey, it’s my birthday
Hey, it’s my birthday
Sadness of the world
Doesn’t matter anymore
Hey, it’s your birthday
Hey, it’s your birthday
Sadness of the world
Doesn’t matter anymore

Days are full, full of lies
But in dreams, you’re in the sky flying
And you wait for the nights
Cos dreams will get you high, high
Reflected in your eyes city lights bloom
Above everyone in the gloom
Reflection of your eyes in the swimming pool
Above and beyond the full moon
Before you go to sleep tonight
There’s something that needs to be done
When no one is looking
Only the moon can see the sun
Days are full, full of crimes
But in dreams, you’re in the sky flying
And you can’t wait for the nights
Cos dreams are full of surprises
Reflected in your eyes city lights bloom
Above everyone in the gloom
Reflection of your eyes in the swimming pool
Above and beyond the full moon
Everyone, everyone is drifting in the deep blue sea
So come dream with me, dream with me
But before you go to sleep tonight
There’s something that needs to be done
When no one is looking
Only the moon can see the sun
Before you go to sleep tonight
There’s something that needs to be done
When no one is looking
Only the moon can see the sun

Landlord (Die Alone)
06:17

Landlord, give me a call tomorrow
Or else I’ll die alone
Would you like to spend an evening with me?
Postman, bring me a card tomorrow
Or else I’ll die alone
There’s nothing left to say and nothing left to see
My radio is broken and there’s nothing on TV
Nothing keeping me here
Die alone, alone, alone, alone (die)
I’m fading out, but I’m all right (die)
Die alone, alone, alone, alone (die)
I see the tunnel and the light (die)
I take a little step closer
Oh, lord, give me a sign tomorrow
Or else I’ll die alone
Would you like to come on over for tea?
There’s nothing left to say and nothing left to see
My radio is broken and there’s nothing on TV
But all the troubles go away
Some things we all must face
There’s no need to cry
Now it’s time to
Die alone, alone, alone, alone (die)
I’m fading out, but I’m all right (die)
Die alone, alone, alone, alone (die)
I see the tunnel and the light (die)
Die alone, alone, alone, alone (die)
I’m fading out, but I’m all right (die)
Die alone, alone, alone, alone (die)
I see the tunnel and the light (die)

You turned to me
I took a dive into those puppy eyes
Like falling down a rabbit hole
I found angel babies dancing around
They raised their hands up
And waved to the sky
Then they started to fly
Put their little arrows
In their tiny bows
Shot me right into the eye
I was wrong and you were right
The candy is bitter
And boys do cry
You sat next to me
We took a drive through the city at night
Like stepping through the looking glass
I found angel babies dancing around
They raised their hands up
And waved to the sky
Then they started to fly
Put their little arrows
In their tiny bows
Shot me right into the eye
I was wrong and you were right
I was wrong and you were right
All along and you were right
I was wrong and you were right
I was wrong and you were right
I was wrong and you were right
All along and you were right
I was wrong and you were right
The candy is bitter
And boys do, boys do, boys do cry

Pumpkin Pie

A knock at the door
No need to bother, there will be others
Don’t answer that call
No need to bother, there will be others
Lay by my side, forget your troubles
Stay a little while longer
Let’s go now out of town to the ocean a
And watch those people cry
Looking at how the careless sun
Leaves them behind
Or we can stay in bed all day
And eat your pumpkin pie
As long as we’re together it tastes good
Well… It's all right
Morning light hits the wall
No need to bother, I know you’ve gotta go
But lay by my side, forget your troubles
Even if the world is not round
Stay a while longer
Even if the time runs out
Stay a while longer
Let’s go now out of town to the ocean
And watch those people cry
Looking at how the careless sun
Leaves them behind
Or we can stay in bed all day
And eat your pumpkin pie
As long as we’re together it tastes good
Well… It's all right
Let’s go now out of town to the ocean
And watch those people cry
Looking at how the careless sun
Leaves them behind
Or we can stay in bed all day
And eat your pumpkin pie
As long as we’re together it tastes good
Well… It's all right

I got lake on my desktop
I got mountains by the lake on my desktop
I got clouds over mountains by the lake on my desktop
I got the sun behind the clouds over mountains by the lake on my desktop
Everything, I got everything
Everything on my desktop, but you
I got my photos on my desktop
I got my movies by my photos on my desktop
I got my music and my movies by my photos on my desktop
I got my music and my movies and my photos in the trash on my desktop
What is that inside of you that makes me so obsessive?
Send me your picture, send me your picture
Send me your picture, send me your picture
Send me your picture, send me your picture
Send me your picture, send me your picture
I'm dancing
Send me your picture
Send me your picture
Don't make me wait forever
Everything, I got everything
Everything on my desktop
Everything, I got everything
Everything on my desktop, but you

Friends

Sometimes you can’t see
What’s been in front of your eyes all the time
I’ve been looking too far
Through binoculars in my head
Oh, I wish we had ended up together
Made kids and walked dogs forever
But you made up your mind
To escape the riptide that brought us together
You said we could still be friends
But we’ll never be like
Chandler, Joe, Phoebe and Monica
Chandler, Joe, Phoebe and Monica
Now I feel like I’m hypnotised
Cos every time I close my eyes
I see the smile I adore
But it's not funny anymore
You broke my wings and now I hear voices that sing
Good luck next time
And every little thing around me
Makes me wanna moonwalk back to the place
Where you said we could still be friends
But we’ll never be like
Chandler, Joe, Phoebe and Monica
Chandler, Joe, Phoebe and Monica

This is my phantom planet, I own it
This is my hard drive, my wires
I’m in control of everything here
I am the main engineer
This is my phantom planet (oh, oh, oh)
I’m alright, but something is there
On my apartment floor
I cannot see it, I feel it
I’m afraid to move
It’s everywhere, it’s there
On my apartment floor
I cannot see it, I feel it
I feel there’s a shadow in my heart
Dancing in the dark
Shadow in my heart
Dancing in the dark
I feel there’s something inside
It creeps, it tricks, it scares
There’s something inside
It dings and dongs and blares
This is my phantom planet
I’m the king of it
This is my heart and fire
Under my wing
I feed on the fear
On my own reflection in your tears
This is my phantom planet (oh, oh, oh)
I’m alright, but something is there
On my apartment floor
I cannot see it, I feel it
I’m afraid to move
It’s everywhere, it’s there
On my apartment floor
I cannot see it, I feel it
I feel there’s a shadow in my heart
Dancing in the dark
Shadow in my heart
Dancing in the dark
I feel there’s something inside
It creeps, it tricks, it scares (dancing)
There’s something inside
It dings and dongs and blares (dancing)

Baby

I, I really want to, I really want to know
What does it feel like, does it feel like?
Does it feel like a blissful glow?
Does it get you high when you’re feeling low?
You, can you tell, can you tell me why?
There, there are songs that make you cry
Make you cry like a baby
Make you cry like a baby
I’ve come a long, long way, but I’m still far from the station
Where butterflies occupy my tummy
Tell, tell me now, tell me now, go on
Does anybody know someone who knows?
Does it feel like a blissful glow?
Does it get you high when you’re feeling low?
Does it make you cry like a baby?
Make you cry like a baby
I’ve come a long long way, but I’m still far from the station
Where butterflies occupy my tummy
Does it make you cry like a baby?
Make you cry like a baby
I’ve come a long long way, but I’m still far from the station
Where butterflies occupy my tummy

Coral Castle

When you have tried your best to keep her
And it’s all for nothing
Sadness takes over like a fever
The cure is to leave
A hundred years of solitude awaits you
An isolation from the world
Oh, Edward, your heart has turned to stone
You drifted so far away from home
All across the globe
You carried the burden inside you
The size of a castle
Your sweet sixteen will live and die
But in a different life, everything will go your way
Oh, Edward, your love has turned to stone
You’ve gotta carve a tunnel
You've gotta find a way
You've gotta carve your heart out every day

In this town, we got nothing left to do
So we break things and stick them back together
When nothing seems to mean anything anymore
You play the clown out of the blue and it’s all good
Like airplanes in the sky days fly away
Landing in the past where memories lay side by side
Spinning too fast, but we’re gonna stay side by side
If I lose my sight, don’t stop me at the red light
And don’t worry I’ll be having a good time
I’ll Stick out my tongue and feel the air
I’ll take a wild guess if I’m a dummy in this crash test
Like airplanes in the sky days fly away
Landing in the past where memories lay side by side
Like airplanes in the sky days fly away
Spinning too fast, but we’re gonna stay side by side
