1. The Return Of Dr. Universe
2. Tiger! Tiger!
The spheres in motion wrapped around collapsing stars
Immortal hands and eyes are framed in fearful scars
The mystery of living, breathing, dying hard
My name and occupation tattooed on my face
The stars my destiny, deep space my dwelling place
Delirious and rotting, where's my saving grace
The stars burn bright
In the forest of night
But what mortal hands and eyes will I see there?
I'm locked behind bars
On the gateway to Mars
But when all the stars expire will I still be here?
I'll set the villages and colonies aflame
The bards of history had best forget my name
Deliriously plotting, Nomad is my fame
3. The Sea Wolf
The shadow of innocence gone
A childhood lost in the waves
For all time
While pouring over volumes I lay
Like curses that echo the sea
Without rhyme
Fortunes are drowned
Swallowed up by the sea
Shackled in time
Never known, never seen
The battles are brimming below
The gallons of emptiness found
In the waves
A circling vortex of time
One thousand and more men are drowned
In their graves
Echoes of pride
Swallowed up by the sea
Shackled in time
Never lost, never seen
This body is crooked and old
But doubtless I'll live and I'll die
By the sea
I'm wizened and tired and cold
But fire still burns in my mind
You can see
Fortunes are found
Now revealed by degree
Shackled in time
Now I'm lost with the sea
4. Hardworlder
Killing you with kindness is my game
So I might live to see your sorrow
Leading you with blindness to your grave
With no more bitterness to borrow
I've died a thousand times
The battles rage on in my mind
Always an eagerness for more
With shields and flashing blades
I contemplate my inner struggle
A sound philosophy for war
Leading you to endless misery
Forever battling your sorrow
Only in my violence am I free
And I might live to see tomorrow
5. The Spoils
You wait in the wings for their call
Hiding in mirrors you pray
Another long winter will pass
And nobody's listening
In martyrdom's shackles you reign
Through long bloody winters you fast
And all of the riches that shined
They're no longer glistening
Turning my blood to stone
Leaving me here alone
Chorus of angels comes to pick my bones
You wait for the curtain to fall
The truth switches on in your mind
The chorus comes issuing forth
All is in vanity
You've crafted a lifetime of pain
Illusions come crumbling down
An emptiness pulling your chain
Endless insanity
6. Frankfurt-Hahn Airport Blues
We got the news
We wouldn't leave on one of them
Down, down, down on the floor 'bout four AM
We'll find the groove
And disconnect all circuitry
Wound so tight, in the night and let it breathe
And we barely made the scene
Too busy to keep the engine clean
Chorus of angels oil my machine
7. Galactic Nomad
8. Dearg Doom
[Horslips Cover]
Our man Cu Chulainn!
Dearg Doom means the Red Destroyer. The tune is O'Neill's Cavalry.
My love is colder than black marble by the sea.
My heart is older than the cold oak tree.
I am the flash of silver in the sun.
When you see me coming you had better
run . . . run . . . run .
From Dearg Doom.
You speak in whispers of the devils I have slain
By the fire of my silver Devil's Blade,
And still you dare to flaunt yourself at me.
I don't want you, I don't need you,
I don't love you, can't you see
I'm Dearg Doom.
And when the stars go out
You can hear me shout
"Two heads are better than none,
One hundred heads are so much better than one".
I'm a boy who was born blind to pain
And, like a hawk, I'll swoop and swoop again.
I am the flash of Hawkeye in the sun.
When you see me coming you had
better run . . . run . . . run . .
From Dearg Doom.
9. Insomnia
My eyes are seeing faces in the darkness
While my mind is seeing darkness in the light
The silent specters that only come out in the night
While I'm drowning in the blood of your survival
Keeping busy making nightmares of your dreams
My violent laughter is only drowned out by your screams
And where there's peace of mind
You know there's always lies
Another victim of your self-protection dies
When you ask if I'm afraid of seeing zombies
It's the walking animations that I fear
The silent specters just waiting for sleep to appear
And when people ask me why I'm always grinning
It's because I'm seeing faces in the walls
The silent shield of insomnia finally falls
And when there's peace of mind
You know there's always lies
Now that this mutant race has left you all behind
Another victim of your self-protecting lies
And when the battle's over
Shackled in time and colder
And stamp your witness on the ground
Your earthly time elapsing
Wittiness the star collapsing
When lost in time is lost and found
10. Poisoned Treasures
In the city's underside
Where the conquerors divide
Another poisoned treasure
(Hard luck stories coincide)
Kamikaze and his blade
On a vagabond crusade
Only seeking pleasure
In the asphalt holy wars
Open eyes and open sores
Spiral architecture
(Crystal logic metaphors)
In a spoiled nation's plight
Many have given up the fight
Now they're here forever
You're down among the dead
Your sentence has been read
But I was only seeking pleasure
And now it must be fed
Underneath the city walls
As the final curtain falls
I can hear the laughter
(Creeping slowly through the stalls)
Sacred war between the sheets
Bringing terror to the streets
You know what he's after
In a residence hotel
Where his latest victim fell
Frozen silent rapture
Broken spirits, broken bones
Bringing power to the drones
Ending in disaster
11. Karma-Kazee
Throwing corpses on the fire
Burning crosses in your mind
Whirling vortex of your desire
Failed experiments compiling
Burning landscapes, sacking towers
Endless bounty stained by blood
Blustering prattle you called power
Leading cattle to the slaughter
Warm and sheltered in my tower
Far from harm's way, I'll make good
While you're bleeding in your trenches
I dare believe that I'm misunderstood
My eyes are shut my limbs are bound
'Till the next of the bastards in crowned
But the fire still burns in my mind
Shouldn't come as a shock to me
When the battle is finally lost
And you wait in the wings without sound
While you're flogging an alien corpse
As I witness this mockery
Turning my blood
Turning my blood to stone
As you wait for the curtain to fall
And you hide in the shadows and screams
As the chorus comes issuing forth
"All is your vanity"
In martyrdom's shackles you reign
While you're draining the blood from the ground
Removing the sight from our eyes
Endless insanity
Turning my blood
Turning my blood to stone
12. Whirling Vortex
13. Street Jammer
[Manilla Road cover]
The Streets are crowded, Too bad I'm out for blood
My Engines ignited,and I've got blood on the run
My Stereo, is cranked to the max
Oh Rock and Roll (Heavy metal) I've got the hottest tracks
'Cuz I'm a street jammer,
I'm a street Jammer
Street Jammer
Its 12 o'clock the engines they whine
12 hundred strong in the dead of the night
The moon is bright, I am a bit too high
I'm gonna jam up the streets
before this night is out
'Cuz I'm a street jammer,
I'm a street Jammer
Street Jammer
[solo]
The Streets are crowded, Too bad I'm out for blood
My Engines ignited,and I've got blood on the run
My Stereo, is cranked to the max
Oh Rock and Roll (Heavy metal) I've got the hottest tracks
'Cuz I'm a street jammer,
I'm a street Jammer
Street Jammer
