» Witness [Lost Albini Album aka Clinical Trial]

I feel so flower and so lonely
I feel so bouquet in the dark
You're my witness in the mirror
Cause I suck you every day
I want to take you on
Make you shine like a bruise
I want to take you on
Drink the wine from your wound
Find your mother in my make-up
Drag me under six feet down
There's no logic to this madness
Pick your poison
Trick this smile
I want to take you riding
Take you flying little bird
Fly your kite inside me
To the mountain with the word
I want to take you riding
Take you flying little bird
Fly your kite inside me
To the mountain with the word
When the sea is lapping
Muse is strapping in her child
Find the petals fading
Night is shading
In the wild

» Flatline [Lost Albini Album aka Clinical Trial; written by Ed Pastorini]

The light gleams like acetylene
On this house in the outland
The bed clay is a cracked hand
Where all water disappears
And all the atmosphere is barely breathing
Dust is sweeping to and fro
The flies are thick as soup
And wounds are weeping
We'll not be coming here again
Cause there's a flat line creeping through the sun
It's got a choke hold on everyone
Guess this dust-bowl lease is already run
Cause there's a flat line creeping through the sun
And it's so hot
And it's so hot
In the new world order
There's no one here today
Even the ghosts are gone
The barn door's banging in the wind
The flies are glowing green
And wounds are weeping
We'll not be coming here again
Cause there's a flat line creeping through the sun
It's got a choke hold on everyone
Guess this dust-bowl lease has already run
Cause there's a flat line creeping through the sun
And it's so hot
And it's so hot
And the ants dream of a new world order

» Lie Low [Bend Your Mind B-Side]

You don't come out
You're alone as you tremble
I want you to be mine
But you hide and you're hidden
It's inside where you're living
You lie low
Though there's no protection from my love
From the rack
Why won't you come out tonight
You lie low
In between you and me
A smokescreen
That's all I see
Give up your fears
Taste the verge of my equator
I need you to be mine
But you're blind in your blizzard
Come inside for asylum
You lie low

» Oyster [Bend Your Mind B-Side]

Squeeze a lemon
Lips explode
My love is slippery
Watch me glow
Rest on shell beds
Cool blue ice
Feel love coming
Gonna down it whole
It's nice and yummy
Plump and salty
You make me say
Don't look for pearls
Cause you're my king
Can't wait to swallow
Love comes quick
Taste you inside
You're so slick and yummy

» Diamonds All Day [Elysian Fields EP]

He said
I can still see you coming in my mind's eye
He said
I remember dying when you drained all my life
Diamonds all day
I want some
I need your
Diamonds all day
I want some
I need to pray
He said
Naughty raw sugar
Naughty raw sugar drips
From your sweet ocean's lips
Give me another kiss
Give me another sip
Naughty raw sugar
Are you moving for me
Are you moving for me
Diamonds all day
Away now
hush baby
Diamonds all day
Away now
Sweet baby
Diamonds all day
Away now
Hush mayday
Diamonds all day
Mayday

» Move Me [Elysian Fields EP]

I put my hands in the fire
But I can't feel the flame
Prism branding
Twisted knife
Fire reflecting a torchlight
A torchlight
I walk on ice
Always sliding
But it's dry
Bone dry
Skating
The side of the moon
Look inside
Fall through
Fall through
Move me
Move me
Trigger the sky
Open my eyes
Move me
Move me
I lay my head on the wire
But I can't feel the pain
Fated
To stand by and smile in the glass
Talks back
it talks back
Move me
Move me
Trigger the sky
Open my eyes
Move me
Move me
Trigger the sky
Open my eyes
Open my eyes...

» Get Rich [Elysian Fields EP; written by Ed Pastorini]

Why shiver baby
The shakes don't suit you well
I'm on fire lately
Why contort yourself
When you could get licks off of me
Why so sullen baby
Your face might freeze like that
I've got heaven waiting
Why keep holding back
When you could get bliss off of me
Your luck runs here
Where are you going
It's so clear
But still you don't know it
Who needs gurus baby
Who needs Hubbard
I've got lessons waiting
They just don't cover
Why don't you get wise off of me
Your luck runs here
Where are you going
It's so clear
But still you don't know it
Stuff those mushrooms baby
Lose that houkah
I pack a wallop
And I ain't no palooka
Why don't you get hits
Why don't you get rich
Why don't you get bliss off of me

» Salome [La Mar Enfortuna]

Down in your hole you look cold
I hear your voice like music like gold
Thy body so white
Thy hair so black
Thy mouth so red
Suffer me once to take you my way
The moon is a virgin but she can't turn away
Suffer me twice I'll come back for more
I will taste of thee
Thy body
Thy core
Daddy my dear you're on fire
I'll give you a dance just grant my desire
My king you shake
You need to watch through silver veils
And I'll dance for you
The way you want me to
Like this
Now bring me the head of that ivory-pale boy
He ain't no saint till I've taken my joy
All the treasure in Palestine will never replace
That strong, strong head
Contemptuous face
On that silver shield you look cold
We meet once again just as you were told
Now I bite down on hot wet lips
But you don't cry out
Now I'm riding the head of that poison-pale boy
He ain't no saint till he's tasted my joy
All the treasure in Palestine will never replace
That strong, strong head
Contemptuous face
Strong, strong head
Unconquerable face

» Les Amours Perdues [Great Jewish Music: Serge Gainsbourg]

Les amours perdues
Ne se retrouvent plus
Et les amants délaissés
Peuvent toujours chercher
Les amours perdues
Ne sont pas loin pourtant
Car les amants délaissés
Ne peuvent oublier
Tous les serments de coeur
Tous les serments d'amour
Tous les serre-moi serre-moi dans tes bras
Mon amour
On s'aimera toujours
Toujours toujours
Toujours toujours
Toujours tou...
Les amours perdues
Ne se retrouvent plus
Et les amants délaissés
Peuvent toujours chercher
Mes amours perdues
Hantent toujours mes nuits
Et dans des bras inconnus
Je veux trouver l'oubli
Toi tu m'aimeras
Je ne te croirai pas
Tout reviendra comme au jour
De mes premières amours
Tous les serments de coeur
Tous les serments d'amour
Tous les serre-moi serre-moi dans tes bras
Mon amour
On s'aimera toujours
Toujours toujours
Toujours toujours
Toujours tou...
Les amours perdues
Ne se retrouvent plus
Et les amants délaissés
Peuvent toujours chercher

» Tangled Up in Blue [Bob Dylan cover on Tangled DVD]

Early one mornin' the sun was shinin',
I was layin' in bed
Wond'rin' if she'd changed at all
If her hair was still red.
Her folks they said our lives together
Sure was gonna be rough
They never did like Mama's homemade dress
Papa's bankbook wasn't big enough.
And I was standin' on the side of the road
Rain fallin' on my shoes
Heading out for the East Coast
Lord knows I've paid some dues gettin' through,
Tangled up in blue.

She was married when we first met
Soon to be divorced
I helped her out of a jam, I guess,
But I used a little too much force.
We drove that car as far as we could
Abandoned it out West
Split up on a dark sad night
Both agreeing it was best.
She turned around to look at me
As I was walkin' away
I heard her say over my shoulder,
"We'll meet again someday on the avenue,"
Tangled up in blue.

I had a job in the great north woods
Working as a cook for a spell
But I never did like it all that much
And one day the ax just fell.
So I drifted down to New Orleans
Where I happened to be employed
Workin' for a while on a fishin' boat
Right outside of Delacroix.
But all the while I was alone
The past was close behind,
I seen a lot of women
But she never escaped my mind, and I just grew
Tangled up in blue.

She was workin' in a topless place
And I stopped in for a beer,
I just kept lookin' at the side of her face
In the spotlight so clear.
And later on as the crowd thinned out
I's just about to do the same,
She was standing there in back of my chair
Said to me, "Don't I know your name?"
I muttered somethin' underneath my breath,
She studied the lines on my face.
I must admit I felt a little uneasy
When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoe,
Tangled up in blue.

She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe
"I thought you'd never say hello," she said
"You look like the silent type."
Then she opened up a book of poems
And handed it to me
Written by an Italian poet
From the thirteenth century.
And every one of them words rang true
And glowed like burnin' coal
Pourin' off of every page
Like it was written in my soul from me to you,
Tangled up in blue.

I lived with them on Montague Street
In a basement down the stairs,
There was music in the cafes at night
And revolution in the air.
Then he started into dealing with slaves
And something inside of him died.
She had to sell everything she owned
And froze up inside.
And when finally the bottom fell out
I became withdrawn,
The only thing I knew how to do
Was to keep on keepin' on like a bird that flew,
Tangled up in blue.

So now I'm goin' back again,
I got to get to her somehow.
All the people we used to know
They're an illusion to me now.
Some are mathematicians
Some are carpenter's wives.
Don't know how it all got started,
I don't know what they're doin' with their lives.
But me, I'm still on the road
Headin' for another joint
We always did feel the same,
We just saw it from a different point of view,
Tangled up in blue.
