Fuzzle
Hey down there, hey Houston control
There's a frazzle in the capsule
and we just thought you should know
The spyrograph is glittering gold
and there's a bustle in the hedgeamarow
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me Houston control?
There's some kind of skism in the rigamarole
There's some kind of fuzzle in our rock'n'roll
Hey out there, hey Houston control
we're still spinning like a top
We're headed straight for the center of SOL
The etch-a-sketch is up in the red
and so is the kaleidomascope
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me Houston control?
There's some kind of skism in the rigamarole
There's some kind of fuzzle in our rock'n'roll
Yeah, we jiggled the thingy, will we ever get home?
There's some kind of fuzzle in our rock'n'roll

Yucca Flat
Set me up in yucca flat
A brand new suit and a Sunday hat
There's my wife, she's looking fine
Just set her right down here next to me for a while
She sparkles like a desert jewel when she smiles
Sometimes some things are just too good to be true
Things like you
Then comes the flash over yucca flat
A storm of fury & fire & broken glass
Where's my wife ? Everything is gone
Was it wrong to trust the man with the blindfold on ?
Tell me, was this desert ever beautiful once ?
Sometimes some things are just too good to be true
Things like you
Was it wrong to trust the man with the blindfold on ?
Tell me, was this desert ever beautiful once ?
Sometimes some things are just too good to be true
Things like you & me

I should have known I was bound to die alone
The high wire dive in the final show
Love lands hard on the rocks below
I used to fly, I used to spread my wings, I used to get so high
I used to pray for someone to catch me when I'd land
Then I fell into your hands. Oh, I could feel time stand still
Love lands hard when the heart's on fire
Love lands hard when the heart breaks free
You once said to me you'd been waiting impatiently
for a sign from the sky, like a falling star
So I fell into your arms but you let me fall to the rocks below

Burn the evidence
Anybody out there know a guy
who maybe knows a little something 'bout a life of crime?
Every gun for hire has a price
Everything's for sale if the money's right
We need leg breakers, thumb cutters, gangsters and goons
Poison and needles and one pipe bomb in the room
Calling all snipers, where's Bon Scott?
We need a contract killer
We got the plan if you got the muscle
We got the cash if you don't mind a little trouble
And I can tell ya right now, pal,
There's gonna be trouble
We need a Kung Fu judo chop who's good with the knives
who can guarantee us nobody gets out alive
We need a desperado, this is Alice speakin'
We need a contract killer
What to do with the body of the President?
Roll it up in a rug and burn the evidence
What to do with the corpse of the King?
Take it down to the farm and feed it to the pigs
What to do with his holy remains?
Lay 'em out on the tracks and wait for the freight train

Stupid Old Man

Stupid Old Man
He's a stupid old man with tired old hands
folded neatly in his lap of luxury
Just an angry old man with so many plans
All alone and living in a fantasy
I don't think he is well
Do you smell what I smell?
Do you see what I see or is it just me?
The golden gods of love might not save this man
He's a stupid old man. He doesn't understand
that the world is not like he might want it to be
Just an angry old man with his head in the sand
Waiting for the tide to take us out to sea
Far out to sea
I don't think he can see
beyond his own misery
Do you see what I see or is it just me?
The golden gods of love might not save this man
But the itchy lords of hell most surely can
He's a stupid old man, a dying old man
The tide is taking him far out to sea
Far out to see

Apollo
There's a man on the moon
hopping around like a kangaroo
I doubt he'll be coming home anytime soon
He's never been so free
bopping around the Galaxy
Goddam, I wish that it was me
Apollo won't you take me down
Deep down into your secret underground
Way underground to live in a world
where things get lost and never found
Apollo help me hide away
where I can find some peace from this insanity
I need serenity, not gravity
in a world where things get lost and never found
When's the mission to Mars?
I'll steal a ride in the baggage car
I'll be out of my brain on the 5:15

Tree Full Of Bees

A tree full of bees
I can hear 'em in the middle of the stillness of the night
In the dead full-stop of winter when the air itself is ice
You might not hear it
Just move in near it
Put your ear up to it
Can you finally hear it screaming "I'm alive"
Can you hear 'em? Hear the buzzing? It's a tree that's full of bees
It is soothing like a blanket, it is soft like baby's feet
It makes us smile
It keeps us young
Just like good drugs
It's something not to be afraid of
It's alive

Semi Precious
I'm so sorry for this stench, but I am drunk in my defense
and I been falling down and getting up so long
that I feel I must be immune to my own pain
I don't know what town we're playing
but something tells me something special's going on
I hang from burning rope but I know that you will catch me when I fall
cuz I'm precious, semi precious, all right - I'm not that precious at all
I don't like to sleep alone and I am drunk and far from home
and someone told me that you'd love to turn me on
I hang from burning rope but I know that you will catch me when I fall
cuz I'm precious, semi precious, all right - I'm not that precious at all
It's been a strange goddam joy ride
That's exactly what it's been
It's been one on the chin after one on the chin after one on the chin
I hang from burning rope but I know that you will catch me when I fall
Still hanging on to hope that you'll be there to catch me when I fall
cuz I'm precious, semi precious, all right - I'm not that precious at all
Not at all

Earthbound
This fascination has taken its toll
We all need something more from this world
but heaven knows what heaven holds
We'll stick to the mission
With goodness and precision
We'll pull the pin and light this candle
lest we blow it all up sky high like Bikini Atoll
Looks like it's all hands on deck now
This simulation's keeping us up at night
We're not gods but we see you
Shine your light now, we need you
It's like it's all ass-on-backwards
I'd go if you'd stay earthbound
We're not gods but we see you
Shine your light now, we need you
It's time to relinquish our control
You're such a sweet thing, a little charmer we all know
This act is now reality, you're gonna make it into history
In like a lamb and out like a lion
Free yourself, free your soul,
free your mind, lock & load
Looks like it's all hands on deck now
This situation's keeping us up at night
We're not gods but we see you
Shine your light now, we need you
It's like it's all ass-on-backwards
I swear that I would go if you'd stay earthbound
We're not gods but we see you
Shine your light now, we need you
I don't see me coming back again
but I don't think it's ever gonna end

The Unthinkable
In India they play with fire
In India they cast their dead to the water
In India they can see forever
Once in the fire they can see even farther
Open your eyes
Realize the unthinkable
Look straight into the unbelievable
Visualize the invisible
And you shall be released
In Indiana they sing in the choir
In Indiana they want to live forever
In Indiana they pray for the thunder
For when the rain comes
all their sins will be washed away
Realize the unthinkable
Look straight into the unbelievable
Visualize the invisible
and you shall be at peace
Yeah, you’ll love the unredeemable
Forgive the unforgivable
C’mon, reach out and touch the realness
Kiss the smiling face of the universe
