119 YEARS AGO
By Reeves Gabrels and Frank Black
Baby, we been falling
Falling and falling
119 years ago
Neither here or there
Is it in my mind?
Or in the middle of the air?
Baby we been falling
Falling and falling
I'm watching the TV
So can you -- don't be calling
I'm screaming or sleeping
or dreaming
Just leave me alone
Baby, we been falling,
Falling and falling
I'm reading a good book
So can you -- don't be calling
I'm living a real life
So can you just leave me alone?
119 years ago
Neither here or there
Is it in my mind?
(Hello?)
Or in the middle of the air?
119 years ago
Neither here or there
Is it in my mind?
Or in the middle of the air?
119 years ago
Neither here or there
Is it in my mind?
(Look!)
Or in the middle of the air?
SAY THAT NOW
By Reeves Gabrels
One of my favorite people left today
The time we had on our side has gone away
Gone away, gone away
So many things to do and they can't wait
Later's much better for me, but not today
Not today, not today, not today
Only a fool would say that now.
Only a fool would say that now.
Not today, gone away
Only a fool would say that now.
Only a fool would say that now.
Only a fool would say that now.
Only a fool would say that now.
No.
Gone away.
No.

YOU'VE BEEN AROUND
By Reeves Gabrels and David Bowie
Where's the pain in the violent night
I'm depressed by the grim
I stay over many years
I should have thought of that
The love for the money
Like black hearted violin
It's the nature of loving
It's too many lonely nights
I can't tell bad from wrong
I can't pass you by
To exchanging
You've been around
But you've changed me
You've been around
Where the flesh meets the spirit world
Where the traffic is thin
I slid from a vacant view
I should have thought of that
And the sound of tomorrow
Like a black hearted violin
Like the silence of tension
It's too many lonely nights
I can't tell good from bad
I can't pass you by
To exchanging
You've been around
But you've changed me
You've been around
Can't pass you by
You've been around
But you've changed me
You've been around
To exchanging
You've been around
But you've changed me
You've been around
I can't pass you by
You've been around
But you've changed me
You've been around

PROBLEM
By Reeves Gabrels
If I asked a question
Would you tell me a lie?
Or would you call your answer
An honest reply?
So tell me a story
We'll pretend like it's true
Cause I know more about you
Than you believe that I do
I never ever wanted you to think the same as me
I only ever hoped you would be straight with me
I never had a problem telling what was really true
Now I've got a problem and the problem's you.
So was it the money?
Was it your pride?
Or is it just something
That burns deep down inside?
I never ever wanted you to think the same as me
I only ever hoped you would be straight with me
I never had a problem telling what was really true
Now I've got a problem and the problem's you.
I never ever wanted you to think the same as me
I only ever hoped you would be straight with me
I never had a problem telling what was really true
Now I've got a problem and the problem's you.
I never ever wanted you to think the same as me
I only ever hoped you would be straight with me
I never had a problem telling what was really true
Now I've got a problem and the problem's you.
Now I've got a problem and that problem's you.
Now I got a problem and that problem's you.
B.N.Y.
By Reeves Gabrels, (Sara?) Terry, Jeffrey Gaines
Seem like we drove a thousand miles on this day
Looking for new ground to take a stand
Through weeping trees we dodge falling leaves
Just too frozen to stay back there
Spirits walked across the land
While the black dove dreamed
The clouds pressed down from above our heads
The only sound was breaking hearts
The only sound was falling stars
Love just wasn't what it seemed in there
I saw you standing above the bed
Blue light all dull around your head
I saw you standing, I loved you then
It was a blue new year's day
There were boulders lying all along the road
We got out and rode the skulls and wings
We were dreaming love
We were falling free
Found our way from two to one out there
I saw you standing above the bed
A blue light flashed around your head
I heard you crying, I loved you then
It was a blue new year's day
(whispering)
We drove a thousand miles
I saw you standing there
I heard you crying, I loved you then
It was on a blue new years day

COMEBACK
By Reeves Gabrels, Matt Gruenberg, Clark Goodpaster and Jace Wilson
I thought I knew my minds
But I must have lacked conviction
I was studying a face
And my mind started drifting
Then I lost my place
And started to digress
When I ran out of time
With my eyes on her dress
It looked uncomfortable
And so did she
When in a soothingest voice
She said to me
Come back when you know it by heart
Come back when you know it by heart
I felt so unwise
But not confused
I rewrote the scene
It was the only thing to do
Yes became no
Stay became go
Maybe was replaced
By "I don't think so"
Come back when you know it by heart
Come back when you know it by heart
Come back when you know it by heart
(Back when you know it by heart)
Come back when you know it by heart
Come back when you know it by heart
(Back when you know it by heart)
Come back when you know it by heart
Come back when you know it by heart
(Back when you know it by heart)
Come back when you know it by heart
THE KING OF STAMFORD HILL
By Reeves Gabrels and David Bowie
"Stamford Hill, four square miles of sh--"
Boy! Katie! You gotta--
The sewage,
(In a west end city)
In a west end city
Smells like daisies
(In Stamford Hill)
In Stamford Hill
Ain't it fucking curious
Some other cunts are trying to ditch the King
(Of Stamford Hill)
Of Stamford Hill
The sewage,
(In a west end city)
In a west end city
Smells like daisies
(In Stamford Hill)
In Stamford Hill
Ain't it fucking curious
Some other cunts are trying to ditch the King
(Of Stamford Hill)
Of Stamford Hill
Gonna build an army
March them to the marches
Marching, marching up and down
Watch them flap their little wings
Someone's gonna lose his poxy face
Ain't it fucking curious
Some other cunts are trying to ditch the King
(Of Stamford Hill)
Of Stamford Hill
Gonna build an army
March them to the marches
Marching up and down
Watch them flap their little wings
Someone's gonna lose his poxy face
There we go... boy! (mumbling)
Gonna build an army
March them to the marches
Marching, marching up and down
Watch them flap their little wings
Gonna build an army
March them to the marches
Marching, marching up and down
Watch them flap their little wings
Someone's gonna lose his poxy face
BAD MOON RISING
By J.C. Fogarty
I seen the bad moon rising
I seen trouble on the way
I seen earthquakes and lightning
I seen bad time today
Don't go round tonight
For it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
I seen hurricanes are blowing
I know the end is coming soon
I fear the river's overflowing
I hear the voice of rage and ruin
Don't go round tonight
For it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise
There's a bad moon on the rise
There's a bad moon on the rise
There's a bad moon on the rise
There's a bad moon on the rise
There's a bad moon on the rise
There's a bad moon on the rise
Oh...
