First Light (1980)
Now there's a futurist song in the air
that people are singing everywhere
it's a song to make you dance and scream
it's a song straight here from a dream
beware the first light shining through
it could be shining down on you
so pack your bags and get away
don't let the first light hear you say
there's a song in my mind...
Call out to see who answers back
prepare for the first attack
but don't you let them see you tears
and don't you let the sell your fears
the only way out is to runaway
the first lights sure to make you pay
stray thoughts there in my mind
her voice so warming and so kind
there's a song in my mind...
Now that you know what lies in store
freedom isn't your any more
so get ready for the first attack
there is no good in looking back
so brace yourself and say a prayer
if you bother if you care
there's little chance for me or you
now that the first lights shining through
there's a voice in my mind...
Carradine's Paradise (1982)
Keeping all your spirits down
the crystal ball that shattered long ago
living rough in a barren town
I keep on asking but you just don't know
the silver keeps exchanging palms though...
Carradine's Paradise, is the tent with the neon lights
opened by a girl and boy who joked about through the night.
You're always welcome night or day
just bring a friend, they always do
just so long as your friend don't stray too far from you
but the waiters will look after you
the waiters will look after you...
Carradine's Paradise is the tent with the neon lights
opened by a girl and boy who joked about it through the night.
In the heat a million eyes did roam and glow
but no one saw those lights before the end of the show
and no one saw that couple come or go
no one saw that couple come or go...
Carradine's Paradise is the tent with the neon lights
opened by a girl and boy who joked about it through the night.
Concentrate! You think of home then start to go
how long do I have to wait before I see you, I don't know
but by evening everyone shall know
but by evening everyone shall know...
Carradine's Paradise is the temple with the neon lights
opened by a girl and boy who joked about it through the night.
Victoria Line (1980)
The time is near and we're the strangers
twice out of two and out of place
chained to the present that now awaits
we're the strangers...
Standing by ready and waiting
diamond eyes on the cold steel rail
the time is near and we're the strangers
we're the strangers...
She catches her breath as she starts to sway
her problems now will be far away
tangled in cold steel
her fate is to die
time stood still as you waved goodbye.
