The projector comes down to earth and shows people slides
Arnold Schwarzenegger has to fight him
The projector comes down to earth and shows people slides
Arnold Schwarzenegger has to fight him
The dogs are walked
The lamp lights shine
The telegraphs talked
Over the country line
And I am corked
Like a bottle of wine
Boiling in
And out
First the trivial pursuit
Of doubt
Then the carver's knife
Bullet bitten
For a bulletin
Shooting down
Crossing out
And brown belt
They kicked ass
In the dining room
Breakfast cart
Fugue spoke
Spang-dangled
For the banner
Of the band-bangled
Forcep, intercept
Interlude on the tube
The precept of gratitude
A rain cloud
Fell from heaven above
All singing this song
Of the wrong kind of love
I left my mother in Japan
I left her Tokyo
I left her in the blue Havana
Cafe in Borneo
She fell asleep in Bucharest
I put her on a train
She arrived in a parcel In Budapest
And I cried my tears in vain
I left my mother in Miami
And on the streets of Vancouver
And she was a pearl on the cold Scottish shore
Where the Eagles swoop and the yammy
Tides are washing her like a shell
I left her so I'm going to hell
To find out if I can find her well
But she's probably going to heaven
I left her somewhere off Lundy
I left her on Tuesday
Found her on Sunday
And it is a pool of retirement
fund pay
That the sharks are all circling round
And nothing remains
But the bullet
It's so hard to chew
Not much remains but the brain
Where once such intelligence grew
You say you can save my soul, well who, knew
Who knew did you?
No you needn't say for you don't get pay
For doing what you're supposed to do
You are the same non-believer
Who bit the bullet of faith
Well did it serve you to leave her
When you went and got egg on your face?
And we're all in a traffic jam now boys
All time has come to a stop
For I left to go and buy an ice cream
Just from the snack shop
When I got back she was swimming
When I got back with the pop
And I could see the sunlight
gleaming over the water wave tops
I guess I must have left her for the last time
Just when the carousel stopped
And I climbed off the dancing pony
And then dizzy I just dropped
There's a lot of to and fro in the tower
Where they ring the bells of the power
They ring them for freedom
They ring for the kingdom
They ring them for heaven
And the might
There's a lot of up and downs
In the bottoms
It's as if some borough
Had turned rotten
Still they ring them old bells
And the people know full well
That ballot paper's not been forgotten
They go back and forth down the street
All the shades of Eden in relief
The colours of colour blind
When you look inside your mind
You can see some kind of grief
Oh but then you hear the bells
In the church rung
Soft like mercy's rains
That soothe the day's pains
And you remember your belief
The Bells of St Peter and Paul's street
I met two bell ringers in a pub
One said to the other now here's the rub
While you push down, I pull up
Ain't none of us gonna know how to ring the cup
And they drank from the brim
They filled their bells up to the rim
They drank like the clappers
And all the happy slappers
Came in
The bell ringers of the church
Joined the game
They crashed their bell like pints
And spilled their notes from great heights
Heard in heaven's powers
Those folk of the bell towers
Bothered, seven bells were knocked out of them
The fire engines rang
The big bang explosions of the bells sang
And as the birds of tomorrow
Dawn broke their wingspan
They began in the sorrow
But together they swang
Two bells swinging
Two bells singing
Two bells ringing
In time
Two bells together chime
The other side of beauty is the pain
You can feel it everytime it rains
You can try and walk away
But you'll come back again
Because the otherside of beauty is pain
Yes you better do your duty to beauty
You better do the same for your pain
If you don't know you have a cutie
That you've stolen all the booty
Then look again
the otherside of beauty is pain
There is a wrong to every right
There is a fragility to might
There's a shadow to every light
And a dawn to every night
A wrong to every right
The other side of beauty is the pain
The other side of beauty is the pain
There once was this guy Narcissus
Women said "I wish he would kiss us"
But the kisses he gave they were all in vain
For the other side of beauty is the pain
Nothing on his lips could he feel
No love to him seemed not so real
Just to prove love did exist
His own reflection he did kiss
And so he turned the wheel once again
For the other side of beauty is the pain
The otherside of beauty is the pain
And Mona Lisa stands in her picture frame
You can see her smile it is a little strained
For the love she'd known had passed
Now only love's brush strokes last
For the other side of beauty is the pain
Yes in each smile, in each love that laughs
There's a beauty that must fade
Like photographs
And when they say you're made
It's enough to draw the shade
For the other side of beauty is the pain
Two lovers they took a walk through a field
When one said to the other let's and take a meal
They picked flowers and grass
And oh how sweetly the hours did pass
But the other side of beauty is the pain
For he had to join the foreign legion
For that was the custom of the region
And so their love did pass,
Just like sand through the hourglass
For the other side of beauty,
the other side of beauty,
The other side of beauty is the pain
The other side of beauty is the pain
Everytime you love another
It's something you must discover
That hidden behind every doorway of the mind
The two faced Janus is the same
Yes the other side of beauty is the pain
If you look inside of Eden's doors
It's there for all rich or poor
The beauty is the winner
But pain's the cold dinner
The other side of beauty is the pain.
The tree of Good and evil
Like Robin hood and the devil
Ever since the love was forgotten
The soft fig fruit had turned rotten
And the apple fell from the bough
And it's still falling now just like a sacred cow
For the otherside of beauty is the pain
