"The Court (Dark-Side Mix)" lyrics
"The Court (Dark-Side Mix)"
You put your hand up, you make your bid
You got your pictures all laid out in the grid
Look in the garden in the surface ground
Buried everything that you never want found
And the court will rise
While the pillars all fall
We got the healer and the birthday cake
We got the real thing and we got the fake
You got the ladder, but where is the snake?
How my body begins to wake
And the court will rise
While the pillars all fall
You got the money going up your nose
You got the data, don't control where it goes
But you have left it, getting down to the bone
You’ve all your memories on your mobile phone
And the court will rise
While the pillars all fall
Out of this sentence
The ball and the claw
And all these pronouncements
I can make up the voice of the law
Out in the market
All our lives are on sale
And the balls are drifting further apart
Recovery cannot fail
Got the things you need, and they’re all in place
Got the big shot barrister to keep my case
Got my baby throwing up on a chocolate milk
The black cat judge reaches for his silk
And the court will rise
While the pillars all fall
We lost the line between the good and bad
We lost the line between the sane and the mad
Used to draw the line across the writing pad
The line of conscience that we never have had
And the court will rise
While the pillars all fall
So many are reaching for it
So many reaching out for it
(You know that justice is blind)
So many are reaching for it
So many reaching out for it
(You know that justice is blind)
So many looking out for it
So many looking out for it
(You know that justice is blind)

The Waterboys - "A Pagan Place" How did he come here?
Who gave him the key?
Slipped it in his hand
So secretly
And who put the colour
Like lines on his face?
Brought him here
To a pagan place
Now who shot his arrow?
How high did...
Kate Bush - "And Dream Of Sheep" Little light shining
Little light will guide them to me
My face is all lit up
My face is all lit up
If they find me racing white horses
They'll not take me for a buoy
Let me be weak, let me sleep...
Yes - "Changes" I'm moving through some changes
I'll never be the same
Something you did touched me
There's no one else to blame
The love we had has fallen
The love we used to share
We've given up pretending
As if...
The Police - "Synchronicity II" Oh, oh, oh
Another suburban family morning
Grandmother screaming at the wall
We have to shout above
The din of our Rice Krispies
We can't hear anything at all
Mother chants her litany
Of boredom...
Joe Jackson - "Big Black Cloud" Hey hey, today's another day
Gonna ride the lawn mower down to Tampa Bay
Let's go - Come on let's go
Sun's out, I wanna wear a fez
Wanna do a dance but the Weatherman says
No go - you can't go
Save...
