Just Jack-Paradise (Lost & Found)

Album:The Outer Marker

9ku.com 制作

Hangin about in the sun

With prozac Annie and the schizo alcoholics

The sharp edged shadows

And these mad electronics

The barbeque's burning

With the moon-ray sensations

I'm lying on my back

And watching cloud formations

Trying to see the beauty

Minus the black inside

She told me people came here

To get drunk before they died

Too many problems

And not enough solutions

Ms. Monroe is in the bathroom

Taking care of her ablutions

Hiding myself behind illusions

Stand back and watch the evolution

Of the secondhand lives your using

So many fucked up souls

In this locality

I need the choice of some

Relative banality

The raw twistings of your mind spewing forth

As you stare at me

Is fucking scaring me

Paradise lost and paradise found

I'm just trying to keep my feet on the ground

Paradise lost and paradise found

And I'm just trying to get lost in my sound

Paradise lost and paradise found

I'm just trying to keep my feet on the ground

Storms rage across

Metallic skies

Reflecting in the multi faceted eyes

Of lazy buzzing flies

The heavens collide

In primeval cacophonies

I contemplate my demise

And hope the gods are appeased

A long distance love affair that's alive

But barely breathing

A thousand times I thought about leaving

Giving all this up

And put myself at your mercy

But still scared to death

About the fact you might hurt me

Instead I came here

And became an agony uncle

And now I'm saddled with this

Freaky carbuncle

Who's stalking me forcefully

And I'm begging her

Please let me go

about my business peacefully

Let my days flow seamlessly

Cos since you've been around

Everything's got so messy

You stress me

God bless me and test me

Daily

Paradise lost and paradise found

I'm just trying to keep my feet on the ground

Paradise lost and paradise found

And I'm just trying to get lost in my sound

Paradise lost and paradise found

I'm just trying to keep my feet on the ground

Well it's the original tales

of the unexpected

You thought I couldn't do it

Now stand corrected

Cos I'm connected

To every nerve ending

Cerebral cortex messages

I'm sending

There's two sides to every story

Black and white

The day and night

Wrong and right

And the paradise lost and found

All inside this sound

Paradise lost and paradise found

I'm just trying to keep my feet on the ground

Paradise lost and paradise found

And I'm just trying to get lost in my sound

Paradise lost and paradise found

I'm just trying to keep my feet on the ground

And I'm just trying to get lost in my sound

I'm just trying to keep my feet on the ground

Paradise lost and paradise found

I'm just trying to keep my feet on the ground

Paradise lost and paradise found

And I'm just trying to get lost in my sound

Paradise lost and paradise found

I'm just trying to keep my feet on the ground
