I wait for sunshine, it never appears
I'm waiting for your laughter
Your laughter is near (x3)
I watch all your washing, it's out on the line
You're looking, you're crazy, you're looking at mine
You're counting my socks, you're counting my shoes
Everytime you bend over, you give me the blues

I just can't move
I'm rooted to the spot
I'm cold and I'm hot (x6)

A gorgious rain over Mondays, I was thinking of going shopping but then I realised it was Sunday

Everything was blooming bright, bright and kind (x2)
Everything was blooming bright and kind
Everything shined inside my mind

Eyes for diamonds under my bed
Pukky little red cat with a big round head

I dreamed of you through ?? nights
Dear blessed psycho, I'm thinking of you (x2)
I've given you water, I've given you rain

Dear blessed psycho, have you got it clear?
Is buzzing in your ear, the message buzzing in your ear
Dear blessed psycho, I've told you again
Oh dear blessed psycho, I have told you again

Dear blessed psycho, you've got it really clear
Dear blessed psycho, you've got it loud in your ears

Groove groove now (x2)

It was a fantastic buttercup shining in my bedroom
At about twelve o'clock on July the 12th
I looked through the curtains
They were pink and ragged
I said, 'Sid, it's your birthday'
So I rang my mother
My mother said, 'Sid, you got to close the door
The crocodiles are coming down the River Thames
They're gonna get you, they're gonna eat you up
They're gonna eat you up like they eat me up, like they eat you up'
Now the bowl of tulips on the porch
My mother comes out, makes a cruel ??
She said, 'Son, go down, get buried on the ground
We don't want to hear you, you're a crazy boy, you're a crazy boy
And we're gonna bury you deeper and deeper than you ever knew
Under under under the ground
Till the crisp white daisies cover you
We're gonna bury you, bury you under the ground

?? baby with big white teeth
She's coming and she says she's my niece
She's coming through the door last night
She said "Hey Baby, everything is alright"
I said "Sugar Cube, now please come home
I'm in this bedroom and I'm all alone"
She says "It's time you made some love"
So I stared right up to the clouds up above
I said "Lord, send me some light"
Lord, send me some light (x2)
Send it right down on me"
I said "Lord, send me some light
Lord, send me some light (x2)
Send it right down on me"
Monkey sugar and ??
I'm gonna get you oh hot dog
I'm gonna creep and crawl on you
I'm gonna get you when I'm telling the truth
There's nothing that you can do
When I get you with a hang up blues
I'm gonna creep right up on you
I'm gonna tell you what to do
You'll be my robot you'll be my lover
You won't have any cover
You'll be my robot you'll be my lover
You won't have any cover
Lord send it down on me (x2)
Send it right right down on me

I'm confused, somewhat rattled, ex-patient of the ?? hospital in London South West 9. At the head of it all is a doctor in a white coat and there's a nurse wearing pink and blue. Now she looks up to me and she says "Is this your coat?", I said "It's not my coat". She said "Are you mad?", I said "I'm as sane as you are". She looked at me and then the day went past, and then another day went past, three years have gone past, and the time had gone past and I'd gone past
Forty days and forty nights
I struggled hard to get it right
I was searching through the clouds for a light
I did not hear a thing, there was nothing to see
I'm looking for the light, I'm looking for the day
I'm looking for a reason, I'm looking for a way
I'm looking for a ??, I'm looking for a time
I'm looking for something, that something is not mine
I'm looking for a time, I'm looking for a day
The day has flown away, I'm looking for a day (x2)
N.27 (Kevin Coyne/Achim Goettert)
When they say their Alleluias
When they stand up really proud
Don't believe a thing they're saying
They're just faces, faces in the crowd
When they talk of love and money
When they say heaven's in their view
They're just putting a voodoo on you
There's not a soul but my dog tells the truth
When the angels they start singing
In those glorious tones of old
You'll be thankful you went crazy
It's better to be hot than to be cold
There's a singer raphsody I sometimes can hear
Sometimes it comes through like the Pacific Ocean
Sometimes it dies in my ears
Everyone sings of sadness
Everybody gets sad for a time
But I want to, I want to tell you I'm happy the way I am
Because this heart and soul, it is mine
It is mine (x2)
My heart and soul, it is mine
It is mine (x2)
This heart and soul, it is mine
Any
Day, Any Way
I'm in Heaven and everybody's there
Dancing, jumping, jumping around, dancing right on the air
Ooh ooh ooh everybody's having fun (x2)
There's a party up there, they're dancing on air
You can see them scream and swear
You can see them every night
They're gonna put out the light
Ooh ooh ooh having fun, (x3)
Having a party up there
Ooh ooh ooh having fun, (x3)
Having a party up there
Ooh ooh ooh having fun, (x3)
Having a party up there
Everybody's dancing, singing out loud
Everybody's dancing, dancing crowd
Everybody's singing, everytime
Everybody's having fun
Ooh ooh ooh having fun, (x3)
Having fun up there
Ooh ooh ooh having fun, (x3)
Having fun up there (x4)
Ooh ooh, having fun (repeat)

Last night, I let my bones grow loose
