Watch It All Burn
04:17

There was a little lady, Living down the block
She had a little savings plan, Until it all got lost
She went up to the gov’ner, Said “You’re taxing me to death!”
He said, “You best be quiet, Or I’ll tax your dying breath!”
Who’s got the matches? And who’s got to learn
Let’s play a little fiddle, and watch it all burn
Who’s got the gasoline? It’s really my turn
To play a little fiddle, and watch it all burn
There were some little children, Living by their means.
They really did have nothing, Pa’d lost it all, it seems.
They sat there in the corner, And cried themselves to sleep.
The man from Old Chicago, Had taken all their dreams
There was a sweet young family, Tryin’ to make ends meet
They had a little baby, Crawlin’ ‘round their feet
The man he came a-knockin’, Demanded, “ Let me in!”
He said, “You know you owe. Fill my pockets. Let’s begin!”
Who’s got the matches? And who’s got to learn
Let’s play a little fiddle, and watch it all burn
Who’s got the gasoline? It’s really my turn
To play a little fiddle, and watch it all burn
There was an older gentleman, His life spent in service
He’d fought the Huns to Kingdom-Come, He opened up the beaches
The man he came a-knockin’, Said, “All you have is really mine.
You want to see a doctor? You’d better get in line!”
There was a group of people, Who wanted one small thing.
To celebrate their freedom, Be left alone to their own means.
The gov’ner came a-knockin, “I only do what’s best for you.
I’ll take your choice, consume your soul, And eat up all that Freedom!”
Who’s got the matches? And who’s got to learn
Let’s play a little fiddle, and watch it all burn
Who’s got the gasoline? It’s really my turn
To play a little fiddle, and watch it all burn

One Man Dead
05:30
|

Marc was in the corner
With Chloe singing songs
I didn’t mean to! I didn’t mean to!
Dancers spun around the room
They knew it all along
I didn’t mean to! I didn’t mean to!
Bruce and Giles were arguing
While everyone looked on
I didn’t mean to! I didn’t mean to!
I was tossed from man to man
The laughter seemed to never end
To never end
A simple kiss upon the cheek
That’s where the nightmare all began
The quarrel spun around the room
Deciding where to land
Twenty-three betrayals by
The people who were once all friends
The Ides of March revisited
With one man dead
Trey met Tony at the door
As Bruce went rushing by
I didn’t mean to! I didn’t mean to!
Tony turned around and looked
When something caught his eye
I didn’t mean to! I didn’t mean to!
Bruce was kissing Julia
Now someone’s got to lie
I didn’t mean to! I didn’t mean to!
She was tossed from man to man
The laughter seemed to never end
To never end
A simple kiss upon the cheek
That’s where the nightmare all began
The quarrel spun around the room
Deciding where to land
Twenty-three betrayals by
The people who were once all friends
The Ides of March revisited
With one man dead
The whole place exploded
When someone threw a chair
I didn’t mean to! I didn’t mean to!
Tables overturned
Glasses flying through the air
I didn’t mean to! I didn’t mean to!
I found myself in Bruce’s hand
I didn’t think he’d dare
I didn’t mean to! I didn’t mean to!
I was tossed from man to man
The fighting seemed to never end
To never end
A simple kiss upon the cheek
That’s where the nightmare all began
The quarrel spun around the room
Deciding where to land
Twenty-three betrayals by
The people who were once all friends
The Ides of March revisited
With one man dead

Na Zdorovie
06:00
|
|||
The pounding is much too loud
The alarm clock didn’t go off
But I have got bills to pay
Oh, na zdorovie!
My head feels just like a mine field
The coffee pot is broken
I’m gonna be late again
Oh, na zdorovie!
Five wives they are dancing now
Dancing under heaven’s brow
We’ll all toss the vodka down
Oh, na zdorovie!
Five wives they are dancing now
Dancing through the underground
We’ll all toss the vodka down
Oh, na zdorovie! Oh, na zdorovie!
I’ve got a long way to go
The freeway’s stopped. It’s all backed up again.
My gas light, it just came on
Oh, na zdorovie!
I stayed out too late again
I wish he would just call me
‘Cause now I’m left wondering
Oh, na zdorovie!
Five wives they are dancing now
Dancing under heaven’s brow
We’ll all toss the vodka down
Oh, na zdorovie!
Five wives they are dancing now
Dancing through the underground
We’ll all toss the vodka down
Oh, na zdorovie! Oh, na zdorovie!
My friends are all gathered me
Their laughter is contagious
We’ll sing and we’ll dance and drink
Oh, na zdorovie!
The music is getting louder
The dancing is frenetic
We’ll drink some more vodka now
Oh, na zdorovie!
Five wives they are dancing now
Dancing under heaven’s brow
We’ll all toss the vodka down
Oh, na zdorovie!
Five wives they are dancing now
Dancing through the underground
We’ll all toss the vodka down
Oh, na zdorovie! Oh, na zdorovie! Oh, na zdorovie!

Tu esti fata care n-are,
N-are , n-are suflet n-are,
Care n-are suflet n-are
Haide fata tu afara
Sa te vada toti tiganii,
Haide fata tu afara
Hai Doamne ce-i cu fire,
Nu-ti gasesc ce-i cu mine,
Hai off Doamne ce-i cu fire
Tu esti fata fata buna,
Care cu mine se joaca,
Care cu mine nu se joaca
Haide fata tu afara
Sa te vada toti tiganii,
Haide fata tu afara
Hai Doamne ce-i cu fire,
Nu-ti gasesc ce-i cu mine,
Hai off Doamne ce-i cu fire
Hai Doamne ce-i cu fire,
Nu-ti gasesc ce-i cu mine,
Hai off Doamne ce-i cu fire
Tu esti fata fata buna,
Care cu mine se joaca,
Care cu mine nu se joaca
Haide fata tu afara
Sa te vada toti tiganii,
Haide fata tu afara
Hai Doamne ce-i cu fire,
Nu-ti gasesc ce-i cu mine,
Hai off Doamne ce-i cu fire

Spanish Raven
05:13
|
|||
I dreamt of a Spanish raven
Of pewter she was made
Drinking from a river’s edge
Within a shadow’d glade
Twelve moons danced before me
Unraveling what was done
Twelve moons danced before me
I was the thirteenth one
I was the thirteenth one
The third eye of the Raven
Sees her stories at night
Listen close and she’ll tell
You a riddle of truth tonight
The sleepy sun rose golden red
The land around me shone
I saw a man just standing there
In death, he was alone
“I stopped the moon this morning
So quietly,” he said
He smiled at me. “She smiled,” said he
Then slowly bowed his head
He slowly bowed his head
The third eye of the Raven
Sees her stories at night
Listen close and she’ll tell
You a riddle of truth to…
The circle spins in Heaven
The circle spins on Earth
The circle spins in Hell
The circle spins my birth
The circle spins again, again
The circle spins my breath
The circle spins again, again
The circle spins my death
I dreamt of a Spanish raven
Of pewter she was made
Drinking from a river’s edge
Within a shadow’d glade
Twelve moons danced before me
Unraveling what was done
Twelve moons danced before me
I was the thirteenth one
I was the thirteenth one
The third eye of the Raven
Sees her stories at night
Listen close and she’ll tell
You a riddle of truth to
The third eye of the Raven
Sees her stories at night
Listen close and she’ll tell
You a riddle of truth to-
The third eye of the Raven
Sees her stories at night
Listen close and she’ll tell
You a riddle of truth to
The third eye of the Raven
Sees her stories at night
Listen close and she’ll tell
You a riddle of truth tonight

Canta Bella
04:08

Canta bella, canta bella
Tira sonrisas hacia el cielo
Canta bella, canta bella
Oiga la risa aunque duele
Ay que la luna llora tanto, oh___
Cuando el viento esta cantando, oh___
Pasan los dias como flores humildes
Cada vez te veo me siento feliz
Busca la miel a puesta del sol y va
Aunque la amor va caminando
Aunque la voz esta silenciado
Aunque la luz en fin escapa
Canta bella, canta bella
Busca la luz como mariposa
Canta bella, canta bella
Recuerda que el sol no tiene esposa
Ay que la luna esta llorando, oh____
Porque el sol esta escapando, oh____
Pasan las caras como gota de lluvia
Cada vez te beso me siento feliz
Como la miel a puesta del sol
Aunque la amor va caminando
Aunque la voz esta silenciado
Aunque la luz en fin escapa
Canta bella, canta bella
Sabes que amor no tiene dueno
Canta bella, canta bella
Como cada dia sea un sueno
Hay que el bosque esta esperando, oh___
Porque el sol va escapando, oh___
Pasan sus anos muy largas y lindas
Cada dia vivo me siento feliz
Comamos la miel a puesta del sol
Aunque la amor va caminando
Aunque la voz esta silenciado
Aunque la luz en fin escapa

Sing, Little Bird
07:41
|
|||
The day began as the mourning son
Told us a tale of what was to come
They came to town while the children played
Hide and seek
And ring-around-the rose
Dogs were barking as the ravens cried
Fires were burning all around
Dogs were barking as the people cried
We will not go!
Sing, Little Bird
Don’t worry ‘bout your things
We’re gonna find us a brand new Spring
Sing, Little Bird
Sing your moving song
Aaahhhhhhh!
You are strong!
Black coats and black souls march into our town
Reprising Adolph's song
They have no right to tell us where
Where to live
Or where to die
They don't know our homes are in our hearts
And our souls live in our song
They don’t know our homes are in our souls
Our souls will live on!
Sing, Little Bird
Don’t worry ‘bout your things
We’re gonna find us a brand new Spring
Sing, Little Bird
Sing your moving song
Aaahhhhhhh!
The guns and tanks try to move us on
They think they’ve beat us into the ground
We will survive as we leave this town
The ovens are fired
But they burn empty now
Our souls are singing as we leave again
Hear our voices sing this song
Our souls are singing as we leave again
We will live on!
Sing, Little Bird
Don’t worry ‘bout your things
We’re gonna find us a brand new Spring
Sing, Little Bird
Sing your moving song
Aaahhhhhhh!

Third of May
05:10
|

Float through the air with the greatest of ease.
Plate after plate, just trying to please.
Everyone gasped when she fell to her knees.
A graceful descent from her flying trapeze.
Eleven years are not too long.
Just where did things go wrong?
This is her circus song.
Third of May.
Run away.
I’ll go to Florida
Where the sun just shines.
On the third of May
I think I’ll run away.
Third of May.
Run away.
I’ll go to Florida
Where the sun just shines.
It’s on the third of May
I’ll run away.
The greatest show with three rings in this town.
Ringmaster, juggler, jester and clown,
She walks a tightrope. She can’t hear a sound.
They scream and cry but she’ll never come down.
Eleven years are not too long.
Just where did things go wrong?
This is her circus song.
Third of May.
Run away.
I’ll go to Florida
Where the sun just shines.
On the third of May
I think I’ll run away.
Third of May.
Run away.
I’ll go to Florida
Where the sun just shines.
It’s on the third of May
I’ll run away.
I’ll go to Florida.
I’ll go to Florida.
Where the sun just shines.
Where the sun just shines.
It’s on the third of May.
The bearded lady collects what she’s owed.
A cat in the rain as the fireworks explode.
A new life waits as she heads down the road
With no goodbye and no farewell note.
Eleven years are not too long.
Just where did things go wrong?
This is her circus song.
Third of May.
Run away.
I’ll go to Florida
Where the sun just shines.
On the third of May
I think I’ll run away.
Third of May.
Run away.
I’ll go to Florida
Where the sun just shines.
It’s on the third of May
I’ll run away.

Voices
05:26

The kings are in the kitchen
Stuffing blackbirds into pies
The crier runs around the town
Feeding flies their alibis
Georgie Porgie kissed the boys
Then told his wife a lie
When the press came out to play
Georgie Porgie cried
Voices in my head, they are screaming
Voices in my heart, they are singing
Voices in my soul, they are burning
Jack and Jill went up the Hill
To see what they could bake
When they got there the coffers were bare
So they ate their neighbor’s cake
Hickory dickory dock
The rats ran up the clock
The clock struck one and down they came
And nothing was ever the same again
No nothing was ever the same again
No nothing was ever the same
Voices in my head, they are screaming
Voices in my heart, they are singing
Voices in my soul, they are burning
Ring around the roses
A pocket full of lies
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
We’re all gonna die
Voices in my head, they are screaming
Voices in my heart, they are singing
Voices in my soul, they are burning

She Lost Her Head
06:19
|
|||
The words kept falling
They just kept falling
Out of her mouth
But no one seemed to
Nobody seemed to
Hear them come out
Tired of preaching to the deaf
She jumped the pew and killed the choir instead
The knife still bloody in her hand
She climbed the stairs
And now she stands
Under the guillotine
She lost her head
(Instrumental break)
She stood alone there
Her eyes a blank stare
Like Thursday’s moon
Her mind stopped racing
Her life was ending
Ending too soon
Tired of preaching to the deaf
She jumped the pew and killed the choir instead
The knife still bloody in her hand
She climbed the stairs
And now she stands
Under the guillotine
She lost her head
The words kept falling
They just kept falling
Out of her mouth
