All right now
You took a whole lot of loving for
A handful of nothing
All right now
It's hard to give you something when
You're pushing and shoving me around
I'm all cried out
You took a whole lot of loving for
A handful of nothing
All cried out
It's hard to give you something when
You're pushing and shoving me around

You took a whole lot of wine
You took a whole lot of love
"Beautiful Gun"
Is that a gun toting gay?
Is that a gun toting gay?

You’ve got a gun toting gait

I'm not afraid, I don't fear.
"Honey for the Bee's" (MP3)

Settee work, oily hands make these thoughts
Had I planned them, they never would be teasing me
As viciously as thee
Set to work idle hands make these thoughts
Had I planned them they never would be teasing me
As viciously as these
Where nobody comes to trample my middle
Where nobody comes to trample my meadow
"The Coventry Carol"
Bye-bye, lumi, lumay
Bye-bye, lully, lulay

I go weak, I go weak.
"Weak In The Presence Of Beauty" (MP3)
I go bleep, I go bleep
I go bleep in the presence of beauty.
I go weak, I go weak
I go weak in the presence of beauty.
"Weak in the Presence of Beauty" (MP3)
Well you know how tigers fly
Well you know time can fly
Tigers don't fly!
"Whispering Your Name" (MP3)
And when she wakes up suddenly and she says your name, Tommy
I'll just hope it's force of habit and not me
And when she wakes up suddenly and she says your name to me
I'll just hope it's force of habit and not need
"Whispering Your Name" (MP3)
If it's just a little fling, a simple thing
I'll try not to break down
If it's just a little fling, a simple thing
I'll try not to pretend
