​Pardon me Kissing you like I'm afraid But I know I'm being played with And you'll leave me when you get the chance Off you'll go In the darkness of the night Like a bird in freedom's flight You're thinking only of deliverance Close your eyes And pretend that you are me See how empty it can be Making love if love's not really there Watch me go Watch me walk away alone As your clothing comes undone And you pull the ribbons from your hair Pardon me

Aaaaah [Yawn like] Last night I had that same old dream it rocked me in my sleep And left me the impression that the sandman plays for keeps I dreamed I was in concert on the middle of a cloud John Wayne and Billy Graham were giving breath mints to the crowd I fell through a hole in heaven I left the stage for good And when I landed on the earth I was back in Hollywood The California earthquake it tore the land in half While San Andreas cleared her throat I heard Psunami laugh The ground began to tremble, the land began to sway And people in the other states they were glad they'd moved away But suddenly California just floated in the breeze While everything that wasn't sank down into the seas And soon I saw Atlantis rumble and rise high And the great egg of Euphrates came down out of the sky Out stepped Shirley Temple with Guy Kibbee who was dead And that communist Bill Robinson whom Shirley called black red They had a marionette of Harpo Marx, they said it was a inside joke But when I honked his horn he came alive and these were the words he spoke With the continents adrift and the sun about to shift Will the ice caps drown us all or will we burn We've polluted what we own, will we reap what we have sown Are we headed for the end or can we turn We've paved the forest, killed the streams Burned the bridges to our dreams The earth is bursting at the seams And in pain of childbirth screams As it gives life to what seems To either be an age that gleams Or simply lays there dying If this goes on will life survive, how can it Out of the grave oh who will save our planet I said I'm pleased to meet you, I always thought you were a scream He said have you ever thought of having Helen Keller in your dream I said Errol Flynn dropped by but he tried to steal my girl Then she ran off with Ronald Colman, said something about a new world Now I'm stuck with my own cooking, hell I'm lonely can't you see Well he grabbed my leg, he said exactly eighty nine words to me Count 'em Let the proud but dying nation kiss the last generation It's the year of the pill, age of the gland We have landed on the moon but we'll clutter that up soon Our sense of freedom's gotten out of hand We kill our children, swap our wives We've learned to greet a man with knives We swallow pills in fours and fives Our cities look like crumbling hives Man does not live, he just survives Love is a corpse, we sit and watch it harden We left it oh so long ago the garden The strings snapped briskly then went slack, the marionette lay dead While Hoover played with the motorcade the body slumped and bled The man who held the camera disappeared into the crowd I said the hope of youth, fictitious truth lays covered in a shroud Then up walked Elmo Lincoln and he said I beg your pardon But we left it oh so long ago the garden We left it oh so long ago the garden

​I'm the soul survivor of this tragedy Oh yes I need somebody's sympathy Don't leave me here alone don't let me be The soul survivor of this tragedy My life was good when she was hanging round My love was flying so high and free But when she left my dreams came tumbling down Now I'm the soul survivor of this tragedy I'm the soul survivor of this tragedy Oh yes I need somebody's sympathy Don't leave me here alone don't let me be The soul survivor of this tragedy I'm trying so hard to forget my pain And leave my past behind But when your life is suddenly filled with rain You keep remembering how the sun used to shine And I can't stand the loneliness the constant emptiness Why has unhappiness come into my life I spend my mornings waking and thinking And cry my evenings late into the night I never knew that things could go so wrong Until this happened to me (and I'm telling you) If you're in love you better hold on strong Or be the soul survivor of this tragedy I'm the soul survivor of this tragedy Oh yes I need somebody's sympathy Don't leave me here alone don't let me be The soul survivor of this tragedy I'm the soul survivor of this tragedy (Soul survivor soul survivor) Oh yes I need somebody's sympathy (Ooh ooh ooh ooh) Don't leave me here alone don't let me be (Soul survivor soul survivor) The soul survivor of this tragedy I'm the soul survivor of this tragedy (Soul survivor soul survivor) Yes I am, oh yes, I need somebody's sympathy (Ooh ooh ooh ooh) (sympathy) Don't leave me here alone don't (let me) let me be (Soul survivor soul survivor) The soul survivor of this tragedy I'm the soul survivor of this tragedy (Ah yeah yeah yeah) (Soul survivor soul survivor) Oh yes I need somebody's sympathy (Ooh ooh ooh ooh) ​Don't leave

​My woman left me, felt like she left me for another man You know it came as some surprise, it wasn't in the plan She never told me nothing was wrong, she didn't give me a clue But one morning there was a knock on the door and I found out we were through I saw my future fading and with the papers in my hand I found myself transported into this desert land My feet are burning, the hour is getting late My journey is much too long and time will not wait So heavenly father Thou who all doth see You let the rain fall on the good and the bad So let the rain fall down on me As through this life you ramble and through this world you roam You might live in a lot of places and never find your home As down the road you wander, through the open fields you cross You must never stop believing, for all is not lost And don't worry 'bout the unfaithful lover and false friend For the love that you have given is what matters in the end Heavenly father Thou who all doth see You let the rain fall on the good and the bad So let the rain fall down on me Oh let the rain fall, let it fall on me Oh let the rain fall down on me Life is complicated, very hard to live I try to turn my cheek to everything my enemies give I got a lot of compassion for the sinners and the slaves I've got a message for those not in their graves He will cover you with water and baptize your pain If you let his power wash you clean and soothe your fevered brain Oh heavenly father Help me thine to be You let the rain fall on the quick and the dead So let the rain fall down on me Let it fall I didn't know you were my father I thought you were the hanging judge And when I came into your courtroom I thought you'd hold a grudge I thought I was a lowly servant I didn't know I was your son And I didn't know you had forgiveness For anything I might have done This world is crumbling, your kingdom is at hand Give me the strength to live and help me to stand There's gonna be a collision, the world is going fast A mortgaged future meets a bankrupt past A change is coming and people slumber in their bed Storm clouds are bringing rain, the moon is turning red Heavenly father Thou who all doth see You let the rain fall on the good and the bad So let the rain fall on me Dearest father Help me thine to be You know the rain falls on the quick and the dead So let the rain fall down on me Let the rain fall down on me Let it fall on me Let it fall on me Let this good life be the life we lead Let our faith grow like a mustard seed Let his love be all the love we need To carry us all the way home

​I don't believe in miracles I know what's real, I don't pretend I don't believe in miracles Or stories with a happy end Life is no one's friend But when we met I felt so free And suddenly I felt a change come over me Do you suppose a miracle is happening to me I don't believe in miracles I've been around, I've seen enough The only way to get along you must be strong You must be tough Life is one big bluff But then you opened up the door An' I walked right in and all my fears fell on the floor Do you suppose a miracle is happening to me Pa [x35] But then you opened up the door An' I walked right in and all my fears fell on the floor Do you suppose I don't believe in miracles I know what's real, I don't pretend I don't believe in miracles Or stories with a happy end Life is no one's friend But then we met and suddenly I felt so strange I felt a change come over me Do you suppose a miracle is happening to me Do you suppose a miracle is happening to me Do you suppose a miracle is happening to me

I've had a life of pain and sorrow but I will still be here tomorrow I will survive, I will survive And nothing's gonna stop me knowing that love is real, it keeps me going I will survive, I will survive When the children are hungry I weep for them I wanna hold them tight When the shadows grow longer and the cold moves in I turn up my collar and walk into the night Come to me my little boy, you have given me life's greatest joy I will survive, I will survive This road before us winds beyond the glade, some fall dancing in the slow parade I will survive, I will survive As the seasons go by in my father's world My eyes grow dim I will trust not in the things I see But bow my heart and lift my hands to him Temptation beckons or befalls me, fear and indecision stalls me But I will survive, I will survive Illusion shines like diamonds glistening, my father's watching, he is listening I will survive, I will survive If you see me walking slowly Like a man who's blind If you speak and I do not look up Then you must forgive me but I've got heaven on my mind Though my days ahead are numbered, my life is rich, I have not slumbered I will survive, I will survive Some hearts are pierced by love long lost, let my heart be pierc-ed by the cross I will survive, I will survive I will survive I'm gonna survive I wanna be free Mmm, I wanna be free Friends may come and friends may go But enemies stay for the late show I will survive I will survive Friendships fail and love's elusive Life goes quickly, time's abusive I will survive I will survive
