You Say These Things--Words Brian Murray Music Murray, Rainey, Kapitanellis, Karlis
In a city of despair and heartache
With a high rate of the blind
She was staring out the cafe' window
Then walked at double time
Did anyone even notice?
Did anyone report the crime?
That was perpetrated on her Sunday
By a man who swore "You'll be mine"
Did anyone even notice?
Could anyone afford the time?
You say these things sound always from your mind
No I never heard your words before
Familiar snd sublime
You say these things sound always from you mind
As the train pulled from the station
He had to scream a bit
"That's simply the way that life goes,
and your simply gonna deal with it"
Then I rose to be recognized
As the lights flickered off and quit
As the train pulled into station
Station fifty fifth
Has anyone had their chance to say
And explain life undefined?
You say these things sound always from your mind
For I might have a point to make
But for now I will decline
You say these things sound always from your mind
You say these things sound always from your mind
Has anyone ever heard you say
That can leave me paralyzed
You say these things sound always from your mind
Though I've never heard the words flow thru
Like an ancient poets rhyme
You say these things sound always from your mind
Eastern Bound--Words & Music Brian Murray
My eyes are getting rusty, like daddy's cast iron plow
Many fields of wheat he's taken, from mother Earth's fallow ground
Wash your hands remove the dirt that keeps a shy man down
I've heard about you New York
I've heard about you brother PA
You're light casts a shadow that stretches through my room each day
Want to see you in your glory, want to see you in reality
I'm eastern bound, eastern bound
I'm eastern bound, eastern bound
Want to see you in your alley, boy, and hear you on the street
Feel the ground beneathe my feet
It seems I've had it with the country, there's only so much a man can take
When your down sheds and falters, and your wings stretch across the bay
It's leavin time baby, cause tomorrow may be too late
It seems I've walked to far for some folks, to a sun gleaming eastern shore
With people walkin steady, In and out of countless Bible stores
Tryin to pay with money, For those things they cannot afford
I'm Eastern Bound
I'm Eastern Bound
Wanna see you in your alley
In an alley dark and blind
Take the time to take my time
Well it's just the same back home, where the movie's always shown
Where we all want to live our lives differently
At the theatre down on Main St, I see the city burn straight
Like Chicago, Detroit, East LA, It's a beauty on your market
For your urban blossom cabaret...
AInt It Good To Lie--Words Brian Murray--Music--Murray, Kapitanellis, Rainey, & Karlis
Sun may rise tomorrow
And it may rise tonight
When all around is brokendown
Aint it good to lie?
Aint it good to lie
Aint it good to lie
If heaven hangs above me baby
You're here beside my side
Message received and taken
Placed in memory banks
You want me for awhile
If even more I can thank
Creatures crawling out my face
Let me draw the blinds
What does it matter?
I know it's good to lie..
Aint it good to lie
Aint it good to lie
If hell arrives tomorrow morning
Your here beside my side
Annie Walks--Words & Music Brian Murray
I don't know about you
But I'm on the run from the ghost of starvation
Do you think it's true?
Or is it some strange fascination
Pack it in and sleep
Is that what he did to get what he's after?
So we cry and complain
And say our only excuse is laughter
But it just makes me feel, right at home
To think of things that I could not say
This is what I spotted long ago
Annie walks and she walks
Strange and disillusioned as she talks
Annie walks and Annie walks alone
Just follow the signs
And wait until you feel vibration
Coming down from the sky
And meet me by the old plantation
Where we'll sit right down, talk about
Things that someday could have been
This is what I spotted long ago
But I don't know how, you could feel
All happy and yet so sad
This is what I started long ago
Aren't We--Words & Music Brian Murray
You talk about your other girls
You talk about your other boys
And which one will it be?
I just got home
You just got home
Face this town alone
Are you kidding me?
Aren't we, in love?
Aren't we, in love?
Aren't we, in love?
Sixty grand I spent on you
I hope I get my money too
Is that all I really need
My heart is set to rhyme and time
Let music be my only crime
My vice be only you
Aren't we, in love?
Aren't we, in love?
Aren't we, in love?
Simon's in the water
And he's checking out your daughter
And is that all he really sees?
He's calling me I've got to jump
But I don't think I'll have the luck
To land on my feet...
Miss Raunchy--Words Brian Murray Music George Kapitanelis
Miss Raunchy, you haunt me
But I never want to live without you
Even when I'm on my dying bed
I live and die for love
But I'll trade'em all for you instead
Miss Raunchy You stronged me
Took me down in the water
But I'll never want to breathe without you
Even when the air is fresh and green
I've told my tales to tell
And now I'll find my lonely ax to clean
Miss Raunchy you haunt me
I have to dry in the rain
But I'll never say bad words about you
Whenever you do me wrong
It's a small price to pay
When you stretch me out like your thong..
Karyline--Words & Music Brian Murray
No I am not destruction, no I am not an evil man
When the end comes around the bend, you'll know exactly who I am
But night after night and struggle after struggle
The show will start real late once again
Wherever we end up, there is where we'll be
And it only goes to show it's where we've been
Standing at the edge of a canyon rim
Where day is dark and night seems ever bright
I know it's right, Hey Karyline
Planetary supplements and a bagpipe on a broken hand
Angels in the eyes of birds and the devil's in the son of Sam
But night after night, heartbeat after heartbeat
I'm a Chinese dragon that walks in front of you
And when there's a chance of rain, it's three A.M. on a swtichin train
That wakes you up in the middle of a dream
Like a dark scary movie with Martin Sheen
Deliver me with the rays of the Holy light
I know it's right, Hey Karyline
In A Dream (I Was A Monkee)--Words & Music Brian Murray
In a dream I was a monkee
Married to the serpant and hawk
In a dream I was a monkee
Who carried the mark on his heart
Would you believe that I would be thinking
That I could climb the tallest tree
In a world where everything worked right
It very well might set me free
On the ride the song I'd write
And in a dream I'd come back home
Maybe I could live my life
In a world I create on my own
Mr Man deep in the shadows
Out to get the better of you
Felt the wrath of the energy being
The power of monkee wushu
Mr Flight the darkest Knight
Have risen far and few in between
Change your face within the light
Things are not as sure as they seem
It's Too Far--Words & Music Brian Murray
It's too far to be where you are
It's too long of a ride
Around a mountain
Around a star
It's too far
A million miles
from where you are
It's just a shame now we're apart
And that's bad
Now your just for me to think
You walk away when my eyes blink
And that's sad, so sad..
It's too far to be where you are
It's too long of a ride
Around a mountain
Around a star
It's too far
Well I'm the actor on the stage
Reading from an empty page
And that's bad
Now you're just for me to think
And walk away when my eyes blink
And that's sad, so sad..
Mainline--Words Brian Murray Music Murray, Rainey, Kapitanelis, Karlis
Black man, white man
While the poor demand
A way to rise above the tide
Down right fields of grain
Standing in the rain
Enough to hold us for awhile
On the station Mainline
Right before your eyes
On a road eroded by lies
On the station Mainline
Drifting off in space
Climb aboard and take your place
Red girl, yellow sun
Was she the only one
Who could make the valley rise?
Here the silent crowd
Crying way too loud
See shadows rise above the ground
On the station Mainline
Right before your eyes
On a road eroded by lies
On the station Mainline
Drifting off in space
Climb aboard and take your place
But what's wrong with you, those in denial
Whose gain and pain through human trial
If honesty is what we need, what's wrong with you
Who refuse to see?
What's wrong with you who refuse to see?
On the station Mainline
Burning down in flames
With no one bold enough to blame
On the station Mainline
Haunted by your ghost
Sittin down to be your host
But what's wrong with you, those in denial
Whose gain and pain through human trial
If honesty is what we need, what's wrong with you
Who refuse to see?
What's wrong with you who refuse to see?
Crazy--Words by Brian Murray Music by Murray, Rainey Kapitanellis, Karlis
You sleep tonight
And I'll watch my lady
I like the light
Would you call me crazy?
Would you call me crazy?
Would you call me crazy?
Let a crazy lady deal out my hand
Lying and a waiting in a bed of sand
But she doesn't know my future
She doesn't know my past
A threatening spectre that came creepin on me fast
Any amount of money,she was sent by him
Father of deceiver and concocter of all sin
But a river had divided
So easily it's passed
Sailing like an eagle
Over smoothe as mirrored glass
You sleep tonight
And I'll watch my lady
I like the light
Would you call me crazy?
Would you call me crazy?
Would you call me crazy?
I rest in the arms of the one I know
The shocking dreams that seem to show
That no one's there behind you
No, no one's there at all
But someone's there behind you, well in case you got to fall
Every band's making their muted sound
Lying in a jungle and they're crying out loud
But a river half divided
So easily it's grown
Sailing like an eagle
And I think I'm going home
You sleep tonight
And I'll watch my lady
I like the light
Would you call me crazy?
Would you call me crazy?
Would you call me crazy?
