Time-Out
02:40

Shoot or get off the gun.
Show me now if you’re not the one.
Come on out if we’re going to dance.
Get out of my dreams and into my pants.
I put my cards on the table to start.
Take a look. They’re a handful of hearts.
Lady, don’t change, or baby, do.
Just tell me if I shouldn’t want you.
Time-out! Time-out!
Take the time. Tell me what we’re about.
Time-out!
You make my heart sing too many tunes.
It screams, it cries, and it croons.
I sought you out at the drop of night
Just to find you nowhere in sight.
You fall upon my mind like rain.
You’re swaying with the sparks in my brain.
I can’t see any key for all these locks.
Let’s look inside your puzzle box.

Baby Lord
02:59

She wears her spark like a fox in the dark.
She comes in a cloak of allure.
She’s the queen of her dreams, and her lunacy gleams.
The light of delight’s in her purr.
Her look is a force of celestial source.
Her magic is dire and bright.
She’s a witch of the wild and a singular child.
Her wit is her power and might.
Her sorcerous breath may be sanity’s death.
Her chaos perceives no domain.
Though the realm of her rule is the view of a fool,
None sully her immanent reign.

Light Me Up, Lady!

Tender talk and salacious intention!
Heady moves and infernal invention!
If you've got a moment for a rhyme and a laugh,
We could have a good time and a half!
You can believe that I wear my heart on my chest.
It'd be on my sleeve, but my love is a vest.
Show me hope like a burnished brooch.
Light it like a beacon for a shaky approach!
Get over here, girl! Put your soul in motion!
I've got the lust if you've got the lotion!
Throw a kiss like a hammer strike.
Shriek and scream if you know what you like.
Give in haste with no reservation.
Bring down the walls of all creation.
Take a taste! Tempt my touch!
See what happens when you have too much.

She Said Karang
02:45
|
|||
|
She fell into my life from a meteorite.
I was just sleeping when I heard her light.
She made a mess of my yard, but I don't care.
I've got no time for gardening when she's standing there.
Sky iron in her eyes and clouds on her feet.
Hair of alpine air and frosted wheat.
When she came, it began with a bang.
She tripped me up when she said "Karang!"
She Said "Karang!" She Said "Karang!"
Hang Around! Bang Around!
She Said "Karang!"
No wasted wishes on a star today.
It brought what I needed anyway.
Moonbeam legs and a smile of shine.
I don't know when she was born, but she's my sign.
She led me through a meadow of endless yearning.
Now we sway with the horizon's turning.
I'm still dancing to the tune she sang.
It's the one that started when she said "Karang!"

A Week of You
03:23
|
|||
|
One moment is stuck ‘tween my mind and my heart.
Through the plains of the days that would keep us apart,
It wandered with motions unbounded by sight,
For no truth had it found after leaving your light.
Hot frost on your lips in a break from the freeze.
That memory stands still unflung by the breeze
Of a thousand old winters and ancientry’s rime.
That kiss I’ll recall through the vastness of time.

Girl, I've Got No Game
02:09
|

I might seem slick, but I'm just sincere.
I'm only bold because I don't know to fear.
I mean what I say when I say too much,
And right now I'm saying that our tongues should touch.
Girl, I've got no game!
Lady babe, I'm just insane!
Girl, I've got no game, but it's all the same
When I call your name!
I won't ask you to break your rules,
But we broke some already, so let's be fools.
If you can't understand why I'm like this,
Then join the club and give me a kiss.
I'm not smooth. I just speak without friction.
When my mouth moves, you can tell it's nonfiction.
Make no mistake. I'm a mythic romantic.
So let's take a chance because I'm feeling frantic.

Wings of White
02:33
|

|
I left my life on a jet plane.
I didn't think that I was coming back.
I wasn't ever going to fly again,
And I went right for the black.
A final dive from the sky's last mile
Just to hold off the thought
Can't even work for a little while,
But maybe it's worth a shot.
But then I fell into a revelation.
I gave myself to its grip.
Now I'm back in elevation.
But man, it was a nasty trip.
Still some days will shift to blue,
But I don't forget to shine.
I'm reborn to soar, and babe, I do.
That's enough to make it fine.

Working on Love
03:01
|
|||
|
What's bringing you through when the haze gets hot?
What's raising your days and tossing your thoughts?
What's lying in wait when you're ready for night?
What's telling you to leave on the light?
It's the rage in your veins and the song in your scream.
It's tune of your truth and the shape of your dream.
When you're low, it's still flowing above.
That's how it works when you're working on love.
What's speeding you through when time gets tight?
What's keeping the shine by your lashes bright?
What's leading you on when the road disappears?
What's feeding your flame and fighting your fears?

Party Messiah

Turn water to wine and wine into white lines!
She's got mystical lips and nipples like landmines.
She has necromantic hair that she knows how to wear.
It's a wispy eclipse of particular care.
When she walks by, she parts the scene.
She's got a gleam in her grin. Her conceit's pristine.
She's got champagne veins and a voice like a cheer.
She's a cocaine saviour, and her mission's clear.
She's a magus among us with humongous skill.
She's got witchy wisdom, and she won't stay still.
In her sight there's a mite of divine delight.
Her body's heavenly bread, and I'm craving a bite.
