Temple Beautiful (LYRICS)

There she stood right next to me at the Temple Beautiful

The lights went off and the band came on at the Temple Beautiful

She got so excited, Shoo be doo bop wop

So excited, Shoo be doo bop wop

There she stood right next to me at the Temple Beautiful

Her mind was dirty but her hands were clean at the Temple Beautiful

Two guitars, bass and drums at the Temple Beautiful

She got so excited, Shoo be doo bop wop

Manchester United

There she stood right next to me at the Temple Beautiful

Someday there’s gonna be a revolution

Till then you’ll need an iron constitution

The lights came on, it was a whole new world at the Temple Beautiful

I got the gig but I lost the girl at the Temple Beautiful

She got so excited, Shoo be doo bop wop

Manchester United

Her mind was dirty but her hands were clean at the Temple Beautiful

Everybody knew it could not last - Temple Beautiful

And now the future’s here but it feels like the past - Temple Beautiful

Now I don’t remember what happened next - Temple Beautiful

Well we might’ve got high, we might’ve just left - Temple Beautiful

Someday this is all gonna be gone - Temple Beautiful

Castro Halloween (LYRICS)

When the shots rang out and two men died

You took off your mask just to see me cry

Did I dream you up or did you dream me

Is there any place else you would rather be

Halloween was here but now it’s gone

Men in skirts and heels are marching on

Halloween is gone

Is the pain all yours, is the pleasure mine

Don’t you think it fair that we trade sometime

(Think about it, baby)

When the merchants hose the sidewalks down

Will the leaves on the trees turn gold or brown

(I don’t know)

Halloween was here but now it’s gone

Men in skirts and heels are marching on

Halloween is gone

It’s gone, it’s gone

Halloween is gone

It’s gone, it’s gone

Play That Song Again (LYRICS)

Rebecca she was here, Rebecca now she gone

Rebecca got a nasty streak seven miles long

Rebecca said Don’t ask me why, you wouldn’t understand

My mother came from Omaha, my father, Vietnam

Put your hands together, now pull your hands apart

I said oh oh oh play that song again

Oh oh oh play that song again

Oh oh oh I can hear it all night long

It’s a city full of animals, a city full of thieves

A city full of lovers trying hard to make believe

Put your hands together, now pull your hands apart

I said oh oh oh play that song again

Oh oh oh play that song again

Oh oh oh I can hear it all night long

I’ll still be your lover baby, I’ll still be your friend

Drop me in the avenues, I’ll stumble my way in

You go fight the power, I’m fighting off a cold

I said oh play that song again

Oh oh oh play that song again

Oh oh oh I can hear it all night long

Love Is The Only Thing (LYRICS)

All you true believers

All you wide receivers

Anyone who calls this world their home

When the war is over

I’ll still be your brother

Maybe we can sort the right from the wrong

Let me put it back the way that it was

Let me turn the lights on just because

Love is a hurting thing

But love is the only thing

Anymore

All you American dreamers

All you gay deceivers

Who will cross their hearts and hope to die

Bring your X Ray vision

From the bedroom to the kitchen

I’ve seen it all

You don’t have to be shy

Who will put it back the way that it was

Who will turn the lights off just because

Love is a hurting thing

But love is the only thing

Anymore

All you happy hookers

All you nightclub bookers

Anyone who’s fallen from their throne

There’s a rainbow in the gutter

Dew drops on the shutters

I’m out here in the garden and I’m all alone

(So) Let me put it back the way it was

Let me turn the lights off just because

Love is a hurting thing

But love is the only thing

Anymore

Truth Will Out (Ballad of Mellissa and Remy) (LYRICS)

Mellissa always said she had a right to be wrong

Maybe that’s the reason she lied

Remy said that he was only looking for a friend

The night they asked him up inside

No one knows exactly what went down in that room

How the truth came out or from whose lips

Sometimes it builds up like a dam it bursts

Other times it stumbles and slips

Till it all comes out

Go on and jump and shout

But it’s going to take a war to stop it

Remy said a scar ran down the side of his face

The cop said, “Son, that isn’t enough”

Well, he called himself the Greek but he only spoke French

We met him after hours at the club

Mellissa said she fainted at the sight of it all

She said, Remy had to carry me out

See I’d never seen a gun up close in person before

And the words like honey poured from her mouth

And it all came out

Go on and jump and shout

But it’s going to take a war to stop it

Remy gave a statement with his fingers crossed

He said, I hope this means that I can still vote

When they brought Melissa in she didn’t look at him once

She hung her head and she read from her notes

The Greek faced the camera - didn’t utter a word

He couldn’t speak or even move his head

The prosecutor stood - cracked a joke and he smiled

Said you don’t know it son, but you’re already dead

And it all came out

Go on and jump and shout

But it’s going to take a war to stop it

“I may never even get to see you again”

Remy said, “I ain’t done nothing”

Tighten up your panties boy

Loosen up your wig

You better pray nobody finds you

Now Mellissa’s got a family and a government job

(And) No one ever mentions the past

Sometimes she lays awake in the middle of the night

Wondering how long can this fairy tale last

Me I took a train to the border that night

I spend a little time in Berlin

Sometimes I think I’ll give Mellissa a call

But I wouldn’t know where to begin

Till it all comes out

Go on and jump and shout

But it’s going to take a war to stop it
