Pull the Strings

The rape took place on an ordinary face
They sucked her bone dry
Now she don’t laugh and cry
She used to scream like a Banshee Devil
Cut the spirit out now she’s calm and level

Pull the Strings Pull the Strings Baby Pull the Strings
Pull the Strings Pull the Strings Baby Pull the Strings

She had a vision She was up in heaven
But she woke up in the seven –eleven
They sucked her bone dry now she don’t moan and cry
She came back greatful she’s a daughter of the faithful

Pull the Strings Pull the Strings Baby Pull the Strings
Pull the Strings Pull the Strings Baby Pull the Strings
Pull the Strings Pull the Strings Baby Pull the Strings
Pull the Strings Pull the Strings Baby Pull the Strings

Now she kneels down at the TV screen
She turned Herself to God, he’s on cable, keeps it clean

Pull the Strings Pull the Strings Baby Pull the Strings
Pull the Strings Pull the Strings Baby Pull the Strings

She used to scream like a Banshee Devil
Now she’s and now she’s level

Pull the Strings Pull the Strings...etc...etc


Play with Ruth

In a darkened room
Theres a cluttered place
In a picture book
I can see your face
Smiles all around for everyone
Upside down I can even make you frown

You don’t have to talk I can do it for you
You don’t have to walk I can do that now too
I can do lots of anything
I can tear you up
I can throw you out…

I don’t wanna hear your name
I don’t wanna feel the pain
Again
I don’t want to be your friend
I don’t want to play the end
Ever again

Tell me how it feels to be the one
Looking up to Me while I have all the fun
I have all the fun
How does it feel to be left out
I can tear you up, I can throw you out…

No – nostalgia can replace
Your an open and shut case
Your face
I don’t wanna know the truth
I just wanna Play ~ with Ruth
Play with Ruth
Play with Ruth

Enter the Flame

Time has Come
I am Here
So good to see you
Again My Dear
No more Hurt
No more Pain
No More Choices
No More Voices

And I will Hold you
As you enter Flame
I will hold you
When you Enter the Flame

No more Pills, No
More hills to Climb
Only Rainbows
Paint the Colours in your Mind

Close your eyes
I am Near
So good to see you
Without the Fear

And I will Hold you
When we Enter the Flame
Yes I will hold you
When we Enter the Flame
As we Enter the Flame,
We Enter the Flame


Documents

You took me once said I love you
You woo’d her twice why not me too
I gave my everything above
Now down below you call that love
I hurt for you I hurt for me
And pray that if now only she
Would go away inside your heart
We’d never be apart

Sorry I lost it
It’s not in my pocket
Pieces of paper
Thin as a wafer

You ask for documents of how
I can’t produce them for you now
Shred it to some sweet confetti
Try again ‘cuz I ain’t ready
Take the little pieces
Do a little dance
Wrap it up as true romance

Sorry I lost it
It’s not in my pocket
Pieces of paper
Thin as a wafer
I’m sorry I lost it

You took me once said I love you
You woo’d her twice why not me too
I gave my everything above
Now down below you call that love
I hurt for you I hurt for me
And pray that if now only she
Would go away inside your heart...etc...etc


Broken Promises

We made our bed
But we cannot lie in it
My pillows damp
Every night I cry in it
It wouldn’t seem as bad
As the nightmares of our dreams
I’ve given up all my hope
My dope and my Movie Star Dreams

You broke all your promises
And I broke all kinds of stuff
Then you went off to roam
‘Coz the Moon is not enough

Do you remember
All the Movies that we saw
To have and to have not
Sherlock Holmes and the Giant Claw
We sat in the front row
Blinded by the light
I dug my finger nails into your hands
And they bled but you said that was alright

You broke all of your promises
And I broke all kinds of stuff
You went off to roam
‘Coz the Moon is not enough

Like Romeo & Juliet we weren’t two fools that just met
I’ve given up my Kings & Queens I’ve given up my Movie Star Dreams
But that was many years ago now it’s my turn to go to roam
It’s just so hard to be, seen, going to the Movies Alone


Blind Core

Blood stained Man
Paints a smokin’ Chair
Hold that razor right there
Paper rags all around his feet
Stinkin’ up the place with Raw meat

Man stares at Blind Core
Blind Core man stares at Blind Core

Out of this Rain
A seedy old coat
He’s a mattress He’s a piss-soak
With his face all bent
‘Coz he’s fluent in accidents...

Man stares at Blind Core
Blind Core man stares at Blind Core

Lick the wounds I cease to exist
My pain was never nothin’ like this

Plastic, evening gown from the neck to the feet
Every morning in the mirror we meet
You got your face all bent
I guess your fluent in accidents

Man Stares at Blind Core
Blind Core man stares at Blind Core
C’mon give the Girl a little bitty Kiss


Why?

There was a time, When all was ours
Love brought us close, And bloomed like a flower

But that time is gone, and blossoms they die
When I hear your name, I break down and cry

I'm dreamin' and thinkin' I'm wishing and drinkin'
Where was the place we called home?
Cuz know its too late, you got on the bus
Why do these things happen to us
Why do these things happen to us

Sometimes at night, I lie awake
And try to work out, why love turned to hate

I lie awake, pretending you're here, holding you close
Forever my dear

I'm dreaming and thinkin', I'm wishin' and thinkin'
Where was that place we called home?
Cuz now its too late, you got on the bus
Why do these things happen to us
Why do these things happen to us
Why do these things happen to us


Who’s Answering?

Jesus What become of Me
Jesus What become of Me
Satan ‘O Satan Salt your Eyes and See
What Jesus has got in store for Me

Angels do you really Fly
Angels do you really Fly
Devil ‘O Devil do your Best
To Bleed Me Dry
I’ll Revel~If they Cry

Holy Maker See Me In
Holy Maker See Me In
Give Me a Lover a Bed and some Gin
I Beg the One Who’s Answering
I Beg the One Who’s Answering


Baltimore Oriole
by Hoagy Carmichael

Baltimore Oriole took a look at the temperature, 40 below
No life for a lady to be dragging her feathers around
In the snow
Leaving her mate she flew straight to the Tangier pole
Where a two timing jaybird met the divine miss ‘Ole
Baltimore Oriole she messed around with that bigmouth
Til’ he singed her wings
Forgiving is easy it’s a woman like now and then
You know iy’s just one of those things
Send her back home
Home ain’t the same without my baby

You make a lonely boy so happy
Baltimore Oriole
Fly to your daddy now
Fly to your daddy now
...You make me happy
Baltimore Oriole
You better fly to your daddy now


Over My Head

Over my head it’s over my Head
Over my head it’s straight through the Heart
Into my Heart right out of the blue
Hand on your Heart you already knew

Under my skin it’s creeping inside
Into your Brain theres nowhere to hide
Now its enshrined and making you weak
Better unwind…. Freak
You…..Freak

I’m stiff as a board I’m stiff as a board
Stiff as a board and I met with my Lord
He says not to worry be happy I’m chosen
How can I feel it when I’m permanently frozen

It’s over my head
Out of my hands
So far apart
Shot straight through the heart
You can’t Resist This thing Exists
It’s Here to Stay It wants to Play
You can’t resist this thing exists
It’s here to stay It wants to play, It’s over my head ...Freak

Over my head it’s all falling apart
Over my head got into my brain
Over my head...insane
Hand on my heart into the blue
Hand on my heart, you already knew
[Pt 2]

Over my head straight thru’ the heart
Over my head I’m falling apart
Over my head Over my head
Better than nothing is better than dead
I’m over my head...Freak
Over my head over my heart
Over my head I’m falling apart
Over my head it’s nothin’ new
It’s just over my head and that’s better for you

Over my head I’m falling apart

Well that’s better than nothing
and that’s better than dead
Now better than dead gone over my Head
You can’t Resist This thing Exist
It’s here to Stay It wants to Play
It’s Out of my Hands So far Apart
Over my Head…Shot Straight through the Heart.


Homesick

Daddy don’t leave
Sick inside my soul
Can’t give no more
Can’t give no more

Daddy please help me
Here my lonely cries
I’m outside your door
I’m outside the door

Daddy don’t leave me
I promise I won’t never do no wrong no more
Never more

Daddy I’m fading
Daddy I’m fading
Deep inside my body poison fills my brain
Daddy ‘O help me
Promise I won’t be bad again, won’t be bad again
I won’t be bad again

Somebody whispered
Tiny nothings in her ear
Somebody kissed her
They stole my Momma she’s away from here
They stole my Momma she’s away from here
Take me to heaven
Take me with you Lord I’m travellin’ light
Give me a reason
Give me a reason I got to put up this fight
I’ll put up a fight
I will put up a fight


Motherless Children

Motherless children have a hard time
When your Mother is dead
Motherless children have a hard time
When your Mother is dead
Ain’t got no place to go
Wandering round you know they just don’t know
Motherless children have a hard time
When your Mother is dead

I dig my grave with a bloody spade
When my Mother is dead
I dig my grave with a bloody spade
When my Mother is dead
I dig my grave a bloody spade
Please make sure that the digger gets paid
Motherless children have a hard time

Your wife or your husband will be good to you
When your Mother is dead
Your wife or your husband will be good to you
When your Mother is dead
Your wife or your husband will be good to you
But nobody love ya like your Momma do
Motherless children have a hard time

Your sister will do the best she can
When Mother is dead
Little sister will do the best she can
When Mother is dead
Sister will do the best she can
So many things she just can’t understand

I dig my grave with a bloody spade
When my Mother is dead

Pt 2

I dig my grave with a bloody spade
When Mother is dead
Idig my grave with a bloody spade
Gotta make sure the digger gets paid
Motherless children have a hard time

Motherless children have a hard time
When your Mother is dead
Motherless children have a hard time
When Mother is dead
Ain’t got no place to go
Wandering around you know they just don’t know
Motherless children have a hard time
When your Mother is dead

Sometimes I feel like a feather in the air
Sometimes I feel like a feather in the air
I’m a long way from my home~Ain’t got no place to go
Wandering around you know they don’t understand
Motherless children have a hard time
When Mother is dead


Wedding Night

All my dreams end like this
You and Me wrapped in bliss
I will always be true
Long as I’m here with you
These things We say
On the Wedding night
Nobody knows for Sure
On the Wedding night
Your Loves My only cure

Perfect heart perfect crime
Torn apart worn by time
The nightmare rides
Sweet revenge
She decides to defend
These things we say
On the Wedding night
The Blood comes quick and fast
On the Wedding night
Can forever last?

These Things We Say
On the Wedding night
Beauty seems so Clear
On the Wedding night
Theres nothing left to fear


Carnival of Dreams

They’re all gonna laugh at you
They’re all gonna laugh at you
They’re all gonna laugh at you
They’re all gonna laugh at you

Carnival of dreams
Things we can’t erase
Carival of dreams

There was whiskey on his breath and I liked it
There was whiskey on his breath but I liked it~I liked it

Carnival of dreams
Final fall from grace
Carnival of screams
Things we can’t erase

They’re all gonna laugh at you
They’re all gonna laugh at you

Carnival of dreams
Final fall from grace
Carnival of screams
Things we can’t erase
Sandy Dillon
