ELECTRIC LUNCH
CRACKER JACK
(R. Moon)
So come on, I've told you everything is alright
Back off, you've been whining for a minute now
All you had to do was turn your will in
Can't you realize this isn't winning?
So shut up! You've already had your chance to talk
Listen up! Boy, you really need to wise up
Cause you're blabbering around your so-called wisdom
The highlight of your speeches is when you stop
So be gone, so long.
We've had enough of you, Cracker Jack. (x2)
And oh, you used to be so lovable
You used to be quite responsible
You used to be cool but you fell and slipped away
So be gone, so long
We've had enough of you, Cracker Jack (x2)
Magic Pity
Oh Sunny, you fooled me so bad
You stole my time
I guess I had high expectations
You sent me to rock bottom, Rat!
Sold me a dream
A green poison-water deception.
If this is the Magic City, where did The Magic People go?
Are they all stoned?
I feel the Magic Pity, a beautiful sunset telling me to find a new home
and leave this city alone.
So sexually neon, aren’t you
Aglow in the rain
But, Sunny, your magic has gone now.
Oh Sunny, the money-sucking swamp.
You leave us broke and begging for scraps of your sunshine.
And you choke me with your ultra-violet rain,
And in the ocean is where the magic is hiding under the waves
If this is the Magic City, where did the “Magic People” go?
Are they all stoned?
I feel the magic pity.
A beautiful sunset telling me to find a new home and leave this city alone.
PUBLIC JOKE
So hey, I heard that everybody thinks they're special.
Ooo, I bet you got an app for that.
I'm "cool" with my “smart phone” and my digital fingers
And everyone needs to know exactly where I'm at.
And I dream of my social media
My life is just a great big show
And I bleed on my social media
My life is just a public joke
So baby, touch the screen and chit chat about my profile picture
Cause I need it, it's urgent, I need some validation
But then I complain about "no space”, everything's connected
It's like I live in HD, boy, and everything's inspected.
And I dream of my social media
My life is just a great big show
And I bleed on my social media
My life is just a public joke
And I tell you it's something I got to get used to
I need to learn to exist
I need to learn to be present
I need to learn to be here
Just be present
I need to learn to be here.
DEADLINE
Blame it on the artificial satellites!
We're losing lots of sky out through the day.
An electronic jungle shaping reality.
Reveal the inner world to my Holy Sun.
Plant the seed of love in the open mind.
This life of hedonism will only bring you shame!
Behold, Electric Lunch has come here to feed your space
and fill the void with magic trembling in the air.
And though this life is going to end someday
We've got to make it better while we can
You got have it for today
Got to meet me on the deadline
Yeah, now.
There's no time for you to waste
Gotta show me that you're real.
Yeah, now.
gOODBYE
Goodbye, dear Shame.
You kept me spinning in your circle.
Goodbye, my pain.
You taught me how to be alone.
Goodbye, Lorraine.
You kept me on your medication.
Goodbye is strange.
But sometimes you just have to go.
And in the river I’m floating with the current
or I’m skipping stones to leave you.
So goodbye, I never want to see you again.
Cottage Scenes
Song List and lyrics
Overtown
(R. Moon)
I found you in the evening
Heard you call my name
"Yo", they'd shout, "what you need? Boy?"
I guess times are “hard"
All the bums on a mission
By the railroad tracks
“Pale man, stay in your car, please.
Don't walk by The Swamp"
Overtown, don't tip me over
Overtown, don't tell me it's over
I see where you're hiding
I see where you're spreading the snow
Jumpout right by the corner
Batman versus Nine
Cuban Caps in a Green Bag
Run with paranoia
Overtown, don't take me over
Overtown, I tell you, it's over
I see what you're doing
I might be a fool but at least I am not like you
You act like you care but I know you don't
Wear your frown, it's Overtown
you'll fall down if you're going to Overtown.
You Don't Belong Here
(R. Moon)
Living in a strange dream
Where everyone around is pushing you
So you fix yourself a nice drink
Cause nothing in the world can help you to see
You're stuck in a lie
Get out and shine, baby
Cause the beautiful people don't belong here
No, you don't belong here
Get out and run far away
So put the bottle down, girl
I know you want to hurt yourself
But we need to learn to love again
Cause nothing else will heal your soul
You're stuck in a lie
Get out and shine, baby
Cause the beautiful people don't belong here
Don't know what you wanna do but I'm gonna ride the boat
It's You
(I. Besarez, R. Moon)
I'm starting to believe there's nothing left here anymore
And you are nowhere near and I can feel the sorrow grow
I feel I can't explain
How can I make you see it's you?
Woman that stills my mind
She's the woman that scares me blind
But listen, woman, I can't deny the pain
You left and brought the rain
The day is lost in fear and I can't get this on my own
This turbid atmosphere has got me cold and all alone
Woman that stills my mind
She's the woman that scares me blind
But listen, woman, I can't deny the pain
You left and brought the rain
Oh girl, it's you
Broken Bubble
(R. Moon)
I just want to cling on to something
A feeling or some type of idea
Can't help but cling on to something
It's the only way I know how to live in this broken bubble
Where all we do is search for home
Broken bubble
Wish I Knew
(T. Cohen, R. Moon)
Some of them will stick around
Some will come and some will go
though I can't say why
Yes, I know, I tend to oversee
Well, you know to the degree
That I wish I knew
Everything about you
I don't want to be afraid anymore
Dreading the moment you would turn
And slip away,
leaving me to walk in circles
while I wonder why you went
and it makes no sense
you were never sure, and those
doubts drew us apart, so I guess I'll say goodbye
Oh, I wish I knew
Everything about you
I don't want to be afraid anymore
Dreading the moment you would leave
Moment Breaks
(T. Cohen, R. Moon)
Catch your breath and rest that weary mind
It's more than you can take
Running, crying, you're dreaming and you're blind
Just wondering when you'll break...
And then your brain's ablaze
You don't know what you're fighting for, no more
Mind your tongue 'cause maybe this is not worth dying for...
Hear that voice and lose all of your senses
Your memories come late
Lost amidst a web of warm pretenses
You're drowning with this weight/wait
And then your brain's ablaze
You don't know what you're fighting for, no more.
Mind your tongue 'cause maybe this is not worth dying for...
She doesn't want to leave and you can see that by the way that she lingers
And if I lose my mind
She'll come down knocking on the bathroom window
Hey, can't you see? You don't let me breathe!
And then the moment breaks
You don't know what you're fighting for, no more
Take a seat cause maybe this is not worth dying for..
Amy
(R. Moon)
Hey, isn't it a pretty day?
Makes you just want to say Amy
Love, isn't it a pretty thing?
Makes you just want to sing
to Amy
ooo, you make me love to say
ooo, I've forgotten what it's like to feel sad
it's Amy
Tired of Sleeping
Song List and Lyrics
Tired Of Sleeping
(R. Moon)
All of us love the mind game
Yes, all of us want to know what happened here
The truth will set alarms
The truth will set you
Free again, on the lose now
So free again, don't be scared now, you bitter child
Cause I don't know what's wrong here I don't know but everyone feels the hole inside
So come down or help me get there high like the airplanes in the sky
I want to know your name I want to see your face, yeah, now
So come down or help me get there High like the airplanes in the sky
Cause I'm tired of sleeping
How am I going to find you?
Yes, how can I, how can I believe in you?
Cause I don't know these monsters
I don't know how anyone fills the hole inside
So come down or help me get there high like the airplanes in the sky
I want to know your name I want to see your face, yeah, now
So come down or help me get there High like the airplanes in the sky
Cause I'm tired of sleeping
So tired of weeping
I'm tired of sleeping
Keep It Together
(R. Moon)
Time has gone by
You've been in town
And you have seen it
Don't you leave now
Get into the sound
Until you break it
If it is you and me
Who's going to keep it together for us?
If it is you and me
We're going down, not hanging around
Maybe you and me are bound to end up dancing through the night It's a crime
Blame it on me
It's all the same
We keep on bleeding
Sliding my feet
You want a taste and you keep speeding
'Til you're down and out
If it is you and me
Who's going to keep it together for us?
If it is you and me
We're going down, not hanging around
Maybe you and me are bound to end up dancing through the night
Why can't we keep it together?
Your Words
(R. Moon)
I'm tired
I'm stuck in a hole
Took me so long to dig
I'm wired I can't sleep alone
The tears have fallen down
And you just sing along
And I just sit there confused
But it's only you who knows just what to say and how to
Only you will know
Only you will show me what I have to walk through
Only you will show
And your words will just linger on
So teach me
To walk on a line
I'll stop avoiding it
I'm bleeding
Can you make it stop?
The ache is setting in
And you sing along
And I just sit there confused
But it's only you who knows just what to say and how to
Only you will know
Only you will show me what I have to walk through
Only you will show
And your words will just linger on
The Escape
(R. Moon)
Open up these eyes
To this revelation
You don't have to cry with this information
Can't you see?
The world, it loves to bring you down
And I read a thousand pages to try and understand you well, little boy
When the sound is fading
I'll forget your name
Must we still remind you?
Love is not a game
I'll stay and plan the escape
Walk into the shade
They will never find you
Sharpen up that blade
Watching those that threat you
And you see the world, you're never safe and sound
And I speak with all these strangers to try and understand myself, little boy
When the sound is fading, I'll forget your name
Must we still remind you?
Love is not a game
I'll stay and plan the escape
Only Pain
(R.Moon)
She comes and slides out of the picture
She keeps, she keeps me vigilant
I feel you slowly walk towards me
Now I'm afraid I'll die
And this can't be right
This wasn't supposed to happen
And I ask myself "why"?
Why should I suffer if it's only pain?
Why should I keep on crying like the morning rain?
Why don't I feast my eyes on you?
It's alright, I know you love me like love you
Cause its true
So sick of love and empty feelings
I want, I want to run away
I hear your voice is at the other end
Now I'm afraid I'll cry
And this can't be right
This wasn't supposed to happen
And I ask myself "why"?
Why should I suffer if it's only pain?
Why should I keep on crying like the morning rain?
Why don't I feast my eyes on you?
It's alright, I know you love me like I love you
Cause its true
Lonely Night
(R. Moon)
Walking around
I'm breathing the chill of the night away
I'm caught by the shadows of the room
I stare at the moon Hello, my sister I love to see you again
This is the time
The time to admit that you're sorry, man
There's so much you feel you have to say
There's nothing wrong
You miss your mother
You want to see her again
Come on, my brother
Let's sing along
Let's sing for the lonely night
Such a lonely night
Come on, my brother
It's so lonely
But it's the only night
The lonely night
From the cold
(R. Moon)
Stand back, don't close your eyes
Attack, don't sympathize
What're you gonna do?
What're you gonna say?
How are you going to take my place?
Get out from the cold
You're breaking the chain
You've fought for too long
You're making the change
Turn your back, go out to sea
Mistakes make you believe
What have you got today?
Where are you gonna stay?
How will you simplify the daze?
Get out from the cold
You're breaking the chain
You've fought for too long
You're making the change
