Lyrics from U.K. "U.K."
From lyric sheet; in "{ }" on left column denotes actual words sung,
where they differ from what was written (some significant, some subtly
different, some markedly different meanings)




@SONG: In The Dead Of Night
--------------------

Are you one of mine
who can sleep with one eye open wide?
Agonizing psychotic
solitary hours to decide
Reaching for the light
at the slightest noise from the floor
Palms of hands perspire {Now your hands perspire}
heart goes leaping at a knock from the door.
In the Dead of Night
In the Dead of Night
Rich and powerful ascend
complicated bends to be free
To indulge in what they will {Indulge in what they will}
and jaded thrill or fanstasy
Shuttered windows that belie
all stifled cries from within {All the stifled cries from within}
And prying eyes are blind
to proceedings of the kind that begin
In the Dead of Night
In the Dead of Night





@SONG: By The Light of Day
-------------------

Black clouds moving gray sky to thunder
Kinetic sunrise fever and blood
Fire and water element anger
Horizon melting to blood

By The Light of Day
By The Light of Day

Silent wheel advancing years
Power and agony growing fears {Power and glory growing fears}
Love's a dream some pretend {Love's a dream that some pretend}
Accelerates an early end {Accelerates at an early end}

By The Light of Day
By The Light of Day
-----------
Reprise
-------
Don't tell me that
the wages of sin are for real
The writings on the wall {Writing on the wall}
(What's) the score what's the deal?
Don't wonder we can't see {No wonder we can't see}
(thru) the wood for the trees {(thru) the wood thru the trees}
No perfume we design
can ever veil the sickness on the breeze

By The Light of Day
In the Dead of Night





@SONG: Time to Kill
------------

Rip the sheets off cold ice again
Wolf at the door
Can I stand
A dog's life here for one day more

Close my eyes imagine somewhere
So far away
Silversand
And azure Carribean Sea

Sick of solitary holidays
Cause I never get away from here

I listen to the water drip down
In to the cell
Run amok
If I survive this living hell.

Holding up this cold calaboose
C A P T I V I T Y
Even takes
My lucid thoughts away from me

TIME TO KILL
going nowhere
KILLING TIME
staying where there's......





@SONG: Thirty Years
------------

Chasing rainbows for a lifetime
then left you girl {left to go}
Like shadows from the sun,
Run into traces
Of faces you thought you saw
But never seemed to mean much more {But never seemed to me much more}
than echoes of a day gone by {echoes of a day gone by}
When someone else would have to try
To light the stars
......In your sky.
[Your dark sky]

All the things you planned
Just sand castles washed away
On tidal waves of tears,
fears overpowering
Your complex dreams just slither down
drowning in rocky pools,
Or smashed and dashed
On peril's course, divorcing prematurely
thoughts {On peril's course, forcing prematurely}
Of lasting love
......In your life.

Sometime when you've time to spare {Sometime we need time to spare}
Feeling of missed opportunity
Spare a tear and douse your bridge...
burning
30 years and on the ledge....
learning

All the things you planned
[baby]
30 years in bed.





@SONG: Nevermore
---------

Nevermore
The sight
Black Forest
Cool Moonlight

Blue shadows
Reflect
In windows
In direct

Oh to go
Down to Soho
There bold spirits don't sink so low

Gold Amber
Of lights
Beer glasses
Misty nights

Oh to go
Down to Soho
Black tie night out or hobo outright

Singles bars
Cruising shark cars
Soho neon glow

When day is dawning
You wipe the sleep
slowly from your eyes
And you remember
Soho's neon disguise
Eyes reflect in windows direct
Soho neon glow......





@SONG: Mental Medication
-----------------

Mental medication
Sweet music's conversation
Play for all creation here

Melody fair.
Lost in contemplation
Drown'd in medication {Drown'd in meditation} (!)
Need your inspiration near.
When I'm alone
I remember
Your truth is lasting {Truth is lasting}

With the sun in your eyes
And a simple disguise
You fooled me
Strange how your calling is clear

From the sound of your voice
You don't give me no choice
You move me
[You prove me]
Deep lies desire for your quick'ning fire

It's a hell of a ride {Well it's a hell of a ride}
When your courage inside
Deserts you
Clear though the calling may be......
In a terrible way
You continue to say
You need me
Show me the way through your dark red door

Mental Medication
Music's Conversation
Need Your Inspiration Near
Melody Fair
