"Caravan" lyrics
"Caravan"
I'm slipping away from planet earth
Hand in my pocket full of dirt
Shaking all over
Shaking all over with the funny stuff
Climbing the fens in the Norfolk Broad
Waiting for Godot and Niagara Falls
Mustn't be late for the caravan
Mustn't be early for the garbage man
I give you a host of reasons to go
You come back marked 'address unknown'
Sandwiched between a question of honour
And the quiet mark of a medicine man
You're sitting alone at the traffic light
The pain is real, you're ghostly white
I give you a host of reasons to go
You come back marked 'address unknown'
Sandwiched between a question of honour
And the quiet mark of a medicine man
Mustn't be late for the caravan
Mustn't be early for the garbage man
Mustn't be late for the caravan
Mustn't be early for the garbage man
Mustn't be late for the caravan
Mustn't be early for the garbage man
Mustn't be late

Oh, how I made them turn their heads...
Fairport Convention - "Percy's Song" Bad news, bad news
Come to me where I sleep
Turn, turn, turn again
Sayin' one of your friends
Is in trouble deep
Turn, turn to the rain
And the wind
Tell me the trouble
Tell me once to my ear
Turn,...
Television - "Carried Away" Last night I drifted down to the docks
The water glittering and black
The snow fell lightly and disappeared
I felt the old ropes grow slack
I thought I'd dissolve when the beacon revolved
I just get...
Silver Jews - "San Francisco B.C." Old San Francisco, San Francisco B.C.
I lived with my true love and she lived with me
"Romance is the douche of the bourgeoisie"
Was the very first thing she imparted to me
We had sarcastic hair, we...
