Brass In Pocket I got brass in my pocket I got powder I'm gonna use it Intention I'm feeling myself Gonna make you, make you, make you notice Commotion extreme emotion I've been driving decoy leaning No reason just seems so pleasing Gonna make you, make you, make you notice I'm gonna use my arms I'm gonna use my legs I'm gonna use my style I'm gonna use my senses I'm gonna use my fingers I'm gonna use my, my, my imagination Oh, cause I, I'm gonna make you see There's nobody else here No one like me I'm special, so special I got to have some of your attention, give it to me I got rhythm can't miss the beat It's got me scared it's so sweet Got something I'm winking at you Gonna make you, make you, make you notice I'm gonna use my arms I'm gonna use my legs I'm gonna use my style I'm gonna use my senses I'm gonna use my fingers I'm gonna use my, my, my imagination Oh cause I, I'm gonna make you see There's nobody else here No one like me I'm special, so special I got to have some of your attention Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, Give it to me Les Yeux Fermes Sais-tu ce que c'est d'aimer Quand la vie vous décourage? Mais il n'y a pas de marécages Impossibles a traverser Sais-tu qu'aprés les orages Le ciel s'envahit de roses? Passent les bleus, les ecchymoses Et avec eux les nuages Mais surtout les yeux fermés Il n'y a rien que l'on ne voit Et même si c'est mieux comme çà Vouloir tout garder pour soi On a beau savoir les choses On ne s'habitue pas Au silence qui s'impose Au silence qui s'impose Je sais ce que c'est d'aimer Quand l'amour vous est égal Je sais les feux de Bengale Impossible a rallumer Je sais qu'aprés les naufrages Du sable fin se dépose Pour que les bateaux reposent Et s'endorment sur la plage Mais aussi les yeux fermés Je ne verrai toujours que toi Et tant que ce sera comme çà Je ne les ouviriai pas On a beau savoir les choses On ne s'habitue pas Au silence qui s'impose Au silence qui s'impose Sais-tu ce que c'est d'aimer Quand l'amour ce fait volage Dresser d'infinis barrages Quand la vie part en fumée Que savons-nous des voyages Quand les portes restent closes Que les mémoires s'enclosent Qu'on en oublie les visages Alors que les yeux fermés Je ne verrai toujours que toi Et tant que ce sera comme çà Je ne les ouvrirai pas On a beau savoir les choses On ne s'habitue pas Au silence qui s'impose Au silence qui s'impose Au ce silence qui s'impose Au silence qui s'impose Shipbuilding Is it worth it? A new winter's coat and shoes for the wife And a bicycle on the boy's birthday It's just a rumor that was spread around town By the women and children, Soon we'll be shipbuilding Well I ask you, the boy said "Dad, they're going to take me to task But I'll be back by Christmas" It's just a rumor that was spread around town Somebody said that someone got filled in For saying that people get killed in The results of the shipbuilding With all the will in the world, Diving for dear life, When we could be diving for pearls It's just a rumor that was spread around town A telegram or a picture postcard Within weeks we'll be reopening the shipyard And notifying the next of kin, once again Oh it's all we're skilled in, We will be shipbuilding With all the will in the world, Diving for dear life, When we could be diving for pearls With all the will in the world, Diving for dear life, When we could be diving for pearls... She's Everywhere In my sleep I heard her voice so clearly Whispering my name I thought that she was here Walked the streets Trying to leave her ghost behind me I saw her face, in everything, so clear In the city streets around me In the things I left behind me In the sky that does surround me Everywhere, she's all around me She's all around me Forget your dreams Forget the very nature of your dreams Has gone away She's living with the straits of yesterday Forget yourself Forget the very essence of yourself Has gone away Though remember this She'll never see you through Waiting for someone to take me too Somewhere I won't leave behind me Somewhere I won't leave behind me too In my life I've lost what I held dearly Thrown it all away And there's nothing takes her place I pace the bars Trying to fill the hole inside me She tore away There's nothing in her place In the city's filth around me In the things I left behind me In the sky that does surround me Everywhere, she's all around me She's all around me Forget your dreams Forget the very nature of your dreams Has gone away She's living in the blood of yesterday Forget yourself Forget the very essence of yourself Has gone away Remember this She'll never see you through Waiting for some voice to take me too Somewhere I won't leave behind me Somewhere I won't leave behind me too Somewhere I won't leave behind me too Everywhere she's all around me Everywhere she's all around me Everywhere she's all around me Everywhere she's all around me Forget your dreams Forget the very essence of your dreams Has gone away Though remember this She'll never see you through She'll never, she'll never see you through She'll never, she'll never see you through She'll never, she'll never see you through She'll never, she'll never see you through Living With The Human Machines Hey Jesus, won't you come on down?
