Verse 1
As the blackbird in the spring
'neath the willow tree
Sat and piped I heard him sing

Praising Aura Lee.

Chorus
Aura Lea! Aura Lea! Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swall-ows in the air.

Verse 2
Take my heart and take my ring
I give my all to thee
Take me for eternity
Dearest Aura Lee!

Chorus
Aura Lea! Aura Lea! Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swall-ows in the air.

Verse 3
In her blush the rose was born
'twas music when she spoke
In her eyes the light of morn
Sparkling seemed to break.

Chorus
Aura Lee! Aura Lee! Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swall-ows in the air.

Verse 4
Aura Lee the bird may flee
The willow' golden hair
Then the wintry winds may be
Blowing ev'rywhere.

Chorus
Aura Lee! Aura Lee! Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swall-ows in the air.

Verse 5
Yet if thy blue eyes I see
Gloom will soon depart
For to me sweet Aura Lee
Is sunshine to the heart.

Chorus
Aura Lee! Aura Lee! Maid of golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And swall-ows in the air.

Rat a tap tap;
Oh don’t you come and ask;
Am I a coming back?
The sky has gone black on us.

Don’t you weep –
Blame myself for these things
Known I was stronger than he –
And all you weaklings knew it.

Toodle loo;
They all abandoned you
One bruised and another screwed,
But I was the only loved.

Oh, Hannah Leah …
I was the only love.

Keep that bed.
Now brother, keep that rug.
Lord knows I was given so much –
And the devil keeps me fed.

On the wall. On the stove –
And in the blank book you draw –
There are signs of Hannah Leah
There are signs of our love.

Oh, Hannah Leah …
There are signs of love.

On a black, blue night
I go a wandering:
Out over Houston –
Along Avenue A.
Hannah Leah
On Avenue A.

Ku Klux Klan;
There’s evil in every man.
Come love her when you can –
And see about Hannah Leah.

Home at last,
the travel’s sure been a blast.
So glad to be back,
I’m so glad to be back.

What is that,
under our bed.
Sure as hell’s not mine.
I’m sure that it’s not mine.

Should I pretend
that I’ve seen nothing ?
Candlelight dinner
holding your hand.
Should you pretend
that nothing happend ?
Candlelight dinner
holding my hand.

Home at last,
the travel’s sure been a blast.
So glad to be back,
I’m so glad to be back.

Should I pretend
that I’ve seen nothing ?
Candlelight dinner
holding your hand.
Should you pretend
that nothing happend ?
Candlelight dinner
holding my hand.


Lie to me and I’ll lie to you
A lie to wash it clean
I wanted to believe in you
But the truth can’t be unseen

Life’s become so fragile
now that I care
But I guess that means that I’m
Getting somewhere
Remember the time
Laying in your bedWhen you told me that you loved me
And you stroked my head

And I stared out the open window
I’d even told you
That one night howWords don’t mean a thing
But it’s alright
Cause every time
I open my mouth
And I wanna tell you something
But something else comes out

But do you know that I need you nowI’m trying to tell you but I don’t know how
So much frustration in my
Untidy roomThat you thoughtfully went andGot me a broom
But inside my room
Is a messy mind that isTangled and twisted
And untied

You know that I’m not too organisedI’m trying to be but I don’t have the time
The cement in my headWas making me sinkBut you pulled me up
and it hurts a little less to think
So life’s a little fragile
But I guess it always isWhen you’ve got some sort of reasonThat makes you wanna live
But will you share a bit of the weightI’ve carried it with me for 21 years straight

I See Lola’s ComingI See Lola’s Coming
On the iceBreaking down winterAnd the snow
I See Lola’s ComingI See Lola’s Coming

On the iceBreaking a new summerAt my door

The legend of the marvellousJourneys and heroic deedsThe many adventuresOf Prince Bova
The mighty BogatyrBegins with the tale of his insidious mother
Militrisa KirtiervnaPlotted the deathOf her husbandTsar GuidonSo she could marry her secret lover Tsar Dadon

But when Dadon threwBova into a dungeonMilitrisa’s maternal heartWas deeply touched
The mighty BogatyrAnd so she helped Bova to escape
His two great powers:Unparalleled strengthAnd unearthly beautyEnabled himTo defeat the forces of evil and find his true love:Druzhevna Zenzeveyvna
He then married herAnd he too became a TsarThey had a sonWhom they also called Bova
The mighty BogatyrEnds with the tale of his handsome boy
Bova the elderWhen his son grew upReturned homeCraving for revengeHe beheaded Dadon and his son was crowned Tsar in his place

There ain’t nobody that I knowThat walks full of libertyWe’re cursed and our bodies curl upHow can’t we speak out against it ?
We’re like stuck in a winterWhere the cold pinches our skinThe wind does squeeze in everywhereFreezing our faces with fear
Can we stop ?
Can we change ?Can we try to do something useful in the end?
I‘ll call the sun and warm you upI’ll say Don’t give in, keep it up,Have some food and have a restAnd let your soul just do the rest
I know your hearts are differentPlease stop smothering their beats!I know your inner nature manI know you could be innocent!

Can we stop ?
Can we change ?Can we try to do something useful in the end?

In all my dreams you stand up freeAnd proudly give that look at meI would see how life is strongFlowing from your gigantic eyes
I’d say Happy, I’m so happy!I’m gonna paint myself in greenI’m gonna jump like a hopperAbove the seas above the skies
Can we stop ?
Can we change ?Can we try to do something useful in the end?
