Puzzle Lyrics

Dorina
Tried to make you happen
Tried to make you real
Tried to make your face
From a broken Ferris wheel

Listen to me Dori
Listen and you'll hear
A wind that carries lonely
And a wind that carries fear

Dorina
Dorina

The bartender must be crazy
He's such an irritating host
Every night the same dumb
question
Where's your pretty little ghost

Can't a man imagine
Can't a man be free
Can't a man just have one little
drink

Dorina
Dorina

May Sunshine Rain
Mary won't be comin' 'round
no more
I won't touch her violet hair
That fell like rain and filled the air
With roses
Mary won't be comin' 'round
no more

She won't look into my eyes
And tell me I'm the only one
Who knows her

Mary won't be changing me
no more
She won't reach into my mind
And fill those gutters with red wine
And reason
Mary won't be changing me
no more

I guess that I knew all along
That she'd be leaving with the song
Of season

Sunshine rain

Mary won't be comin' 'round
no more
She won't reach into my mind
And fill those gutters with red wine
And reason
Mary won't be comin' 'round
no more

She won't look into my eyes
And tell me I'm the only one
Who knows her

Sunshine rain
Sunshine rain
Sunshine rain

Dog
Painted old lady
Collecting splinters on the bench
She's waiting to go to heaven
One-eyed old man
With his party hat on
Swears there is no hell

I know a girl who believes
A girl who believes
She used to be a dog
Elevator rising
I wonder what's on the top floor
The numbers are on the wall
The sun also rises
And the shadow soon fall
I keep looking to the sky

I know a girl who believes
A girl who believes
She used to be a dog

It don't matter what I say
'Cause no one is right
and no one is wrong
I guess that we'll find some day
That no one was right
and no one was wrong

I know a girl who believes
A girl who believes
She used to be a dog

Dizz Knee Land
I just ran away from home
Now I'm going to dizz knee land
I just crashed my car again
Now I'm going to dizz knee land
I just robbed a grocery store
I'm going to dizz knee land
I just flipped off President George
I'm going to dizz knee land

I just tossed a fifth of gin
Now I'm going to dizz knee land
I just got cuffed again
Now I'm going to dizz knee land
Shot my gun into the night
I'm going to dizz knee land
I just saw a good man die
I'm going to dizz knee land

Kicked my ass out of school
Rolled me out into the street
Hitched a ride on a monkey's back
Headed west into the black

I'm going to dizz knee land

Surround
There's a picture on my wall
A crack in the ceiling
Cigarette burns in my hall
I get the feeling
That you surround me
That you surround me

If I died a thousand times
My soul washed beside me
I will never be alone
You're always inside me

And you surround me
And you surround me

Here Today, Gone Tomorrow
I used to hide my Camels
in a paper bag
I only took them out
when it was safe to drag
My first sixteen years
in a catholic-boy suit
One father with a sixer
and a steel-toe boot
He said son we're all...

Here today gone tomorrow
Here today gone tomorrow

One night in the mirror
I saw a movie star
So I flew to Hollywood
in a neighbor's car
A pack of No-Doze
I'm a bundle of nerves
Laughing out loud
as the highway curves
'Cause you see we're all just...

Here today gone tomorrow
Here today gone tomorrow

Twenty-two miles out of Pasadena
I picked up a hiker named Tina
Now oe've only been here
a couple of weeks
Soakin up the sun, the drugs
and the freaks
We hit it off
so we moved in together
Got a cat named Ringo
and it purred like leather
We robbed a bank in
Santa Monica
Bought a Caddy and a
gold harmonica
We'd ride by day
we'd play by night
We're makin' love every night

Here today gone tomorrow
Here today gone tomorrow

So we went up to Hef's
to meet some bunnies
I saw Hugh he was actin' funny
He handed me some grass and a
vodka & gin
That was about the time that Jack
Webb walked in
He said "Son I'm gonna tell you
something and it ain't pretty
There's a thousand way to die in
this naked city"
Here today gone tomorrow
Here today gone tomorrow
You know we're
Here today gone tomorrow

Posters
She was sixteen going on fifty
I'm not quite sure exactly
what that means
But her speakers screamed Sinatra
and the Zombies
Her hair hung red around her
ripped blue jeans

She said she was Jim Morrison
incarnate
A psychic on La Brea told her so
She asked me if I ever read Lolita
She took my hand and lead me to
her door
And she said ...
Let's go to my room
I'll show my posters
Let's go to my room
I'll show you I'm a lover
She locked the door behind me
She lit a candle
Then blew it out said the moon
would do just fine
The lizard king and T. Rex for wall
paper
Above her bed hung a
No-Parking sign
She asked me if I liked her
decorator
As she stripped behind a wall of
raining beads
I woke up with her pillow and her
diary
She took her bath as I began to
read
And she said ...

Let's go to my room
I'll show you my posters
Let's go to my room
I'll show you I'm a lover

Timothy
Look at me I'm ten feet tall
Jungle-Jim, hope I don't fall
Gather 'round for my playground
show

They call me Time, my real name is
Timothy
Your attention please but please not
your sympathy
My dad's real cool
He discovered Mars
And my mom is a movie star

The kids at school don't let me play
anything
But I don't care because I have
everything
Any boy could ever need

A helicopter that takes me
anywhere
A diamond horse, yeah my dad's a
millionaire
Don't mind the holes in my knees
And my mom's a movie star

Bill Green grabs his lunch from the
window sill
I left mine home, how 'bout a bite
of your sandwich, Bill
A friend in need is a friend indeed
The teacher asks oh where are you
parents Tim
It's been five months and I've seen
no sign of them
My dad's not here
He flew back to Mars
and my mom is a movie star

She's a movie star
She's a movie star
My dad's drunk in a bar
And my mom's crashed the car
She's a movie star...

Dim
If you've got pictures of your face
Could you leave it on your way out
the door
I don't care if it's color or black or
white
I just need something to remember
you by

Before my life went dim
Before my life went dim
No one told me the trouble I was in
Before my life went dim

I painted half my face green
I painted half my face blue
In hopes of showing you
both sides of me both sides of me
I guess it came down to
don't you love don't you love me
Before my life went dim
Before my life went dim
No one told me the trouble I was in
Before my life went dim

Can't this car go any faster
Can't this car go any faster
Can't this car go any faster
Cause I can still see where I am

Before my life went dim
Before my life went dim
You should have told me
The trouble I was in
Before my life went dim

Who You Are
I could fall in love
I could pick a flower
I'd give it a face
But it would never replace

Who you are

I could sing forever
Get drunk on guitar
Feel the drum and bass
But it would never replace

Who you are

I could set this cold blue world
ablaze
But the sun would still rise
And I would never replace
Who you are

I'd take a train to nowhere
A rocket to mars
Get lost in space
But I could never replace

Who you are
I could set this cold blue world
ablaze
But the sun would still rise
And I would never replace
Who you are

Puzzle
I got a puzzle in my head
Spend a lifetime finding pieces
It will take forever to put together
the square and the round
Something that proves I'm not
hangin' around

You wanna leave you wanna leave
But there's something inside you
just don't trust
You wanna leave you make believe
That your life is not a wreck and it
will never rust

Don't want your money
Your milk and honey
You'll never love me
I won't bring you down

I got a desert in my heart tonight
I'll lie here like a dead man all
night
I still have a face it looks like mine
If only I could reach my mind

You wanna leave you wanna leave
But there's someone inside you
just don't trust
You wanna leave you make believe
That your life is not a wreck and it
will never rust

Don't want your money
Your milk and honey
You'll never love me
I wont bring you down

Moon
The night before the moon died
you realized
the flowers that you picked
and kept locked away
Were never to be seen
by naked lovers' eyes

The night before the moon died
you realized
you had a chance to make it right
but you never did

Take your car right out of gear
send it over the sea
Touch your fingers to the water
Put your hands to your face

The night before the moon died
you realized
You had your chance
to make it right
You had your chance
to change your mind
You had your chance
to save your life
but you never did
