"Shake The Tree"


I'd love to take this lying down
But the world we know has lost it's crown
All night talking jazz cigarettes
Is never gonna change this killer town

I see her walking
In perfect time
She gives me reason
To carry on

Round the corner comes salvations
Made to order is what you found
Why oh why do we fool ourselves
Is it just the need to carry on

I see her walking
In perfect time
She gives me reason
To carry on

Shake the tree you find
Shake don't cut it down

Glamour takes it's toll on you
You throw away what's out of view
Pearls of wisdom hang round your neck
They warm to the touch of your perfect skin

High, high, high
High, high, high

I see her walking
In perfect time
She gives me reason
To carry on

Shake the tree you find
Shake don't cut it down

Shake the tree you find
(I see her walking in perfect time)
Shake don't cut it down
(She gives me reason)
To carry on

I see her walking
In perfect time
She gives me reason
To never say die

I see her walking
In perfect time (shake)
She gives me reason (the tree you find)
To never say die

Shake the tree you find

"She Is Rising"


Those pretty feet are stuck deep in the ground
All all that junk keeps coming
Must be the time to rearrange it all
Another place another time has called

She is rising above this world
She is heading for an open door
She is rising above this world
She is heading for an open door

Give it up, let her in
All she wants is to begin
Give it up, let her in
All she wants is to begin

One day he wakes up to a different drum
Rhythm coming from so far away
He had no time to tell anyone
His hips were moving to a perfect sway

He is rising above this world
He is heading for an open door
He is rising above this world
He is heading for an open door

Give it up, let him in
All he wants is to begin
Give it up, let him in
All he wants is to begin

Give it up, let her in
All she wants is to begin

She is rising above this world
She is heading for an open door

Give it up, let her in
All she wants is to begin
Give it up, let her in
All she wants is to begin

Give it up (she is rising)
Let him in (he is rising)
All he wants is to begin (aIl I want is to begin)

Give it up (she is rising)
Let him in (he is rising)
All he wants is to begin (all he wants is to begin)

She is rising
He is rising
All I want
All I want is to begin
She is rising
He is rising

Give it up
We are rising

She is rising
She is rising

"Shine"


Making up my life
Killer in the night
Rattling my brains
Looking for that light

Shine, shine
Ah shine so bright, shine

When does that thing
I want to breathe her in
Throw away my world
If I could see that pearl

Shine, shine, shine, shine
Shine, shine, shine, shine

The skin is deep
But your oh so weak
Don't put your faith
In the words they speak

The skin is deep
But your oh so weak
Don't put your faith
In the words they speak

Gimme gimme reason for the things I do
Silhouette I'm seeing in the shape of you

Gimme gimme reason for the things I do
Silhouette I'm seeing in the shape of you

Shine, shine, shine
Shine, shine

When it does that thing
Killer in the night
Rattling my brains
Looking for the light

Shine, shine, shine, shine
Shine, shine, so bright

Gimme gimme reasons for the things I do
The silhouette I'm seeing in the shape of you
[fade out]

"Let It Ride"


The sky is blue I'm watching you
The grass is green what does it mean
Clouds are white don't loose that fight
Generations oversight is fucking up my poetry

Let it ride, ride, ride
Ride, ride, ride
Ride, ride

Caught in between
The sun and the moon and the stars
Caught in between
The sun and the moon and the stars
Caught in between
The sun and the moon and the stars
Caught in between
The sun and the moon and the stars

The sky is blue I'm watching you
The grass is green what does it mean
Clouds are white don't loose that fight
Generations oversight is fucking up my overdrive

Let it ride, ride, ride
Ride, ride, ride
Ride, ride, ride

Let it ride, ride, ride
