letra de Karma Chameleon
Desert loving in your eyes all the way.
If I listen to your lies,
Would you say I'm a man without conviction,
I'm a man who doesn't know
How to sell a contradiction?
You come and go, you come and go.

Karma, karma, karma, karma, karma, chameleon,
You come and go, you come and go.
Loving would be easy if your colours were like my dreams:
Red, gold, and green, red, gold, and green.

Didn't you hear your wicked words ever'y day.
And you used to be so sweet.
I heard you say that my love was an addiction.
When we cling, our love is strong.
When you go, you're gone forever.
You string along, you string along.

Karma, karma, karma, karma, karma, chameleon,
You come and go, you come and go.
Loving would be easy if your colours were like my dreams:
Red, gold, and green, red, gold, and green.

Ev'ry day is like survival.
You're my lover, not my rival.

Ev'ry day is like survival.
You're my lover, not my rival.
I'm a man without conviction
I'm a man who doesn't know
How to sale a contradiction?
You come and go, you come and go.

Karma, karma, karma, karma, karma, chameleon,
You come and go, you come and go.
Loving would be easy if your colours were like my dreams:
Red, gold, and green, red, gold, and green.
Karma, karma, karma, karma, karma, chameleon,
You come and go, you come and go.
Loving would be easy if your colours were like my dreams:
Red, gold, and green, red, gold, and green.

letra de Black Money
Do you deal in black money?
Do you deal in black money?
Do you deal in black money?
Do you deal in black money?
Fortunes find you.
Cross out every emotion.
Standing right behind
A shadow of devotion.
Somebody else's life
Cannot be mine.
But when you love someone
And they don't love you in return.
When you love someone,
You've got money to burn.
Do you deal in black money?
Do you deal in black money?
Do you deal in black money?
Do you deal in black money?
I believe that
Nothing could come between us.
Magic potions,
Won't you save them for dreamers?
Somebody else's life cannot be mine.
But when you love someone,
And they don't love you in return.
When you love someone,
You've got money to burn.
Do you deal in black money?
Do you deal in black money?
Do you deal in black money?
Do you deal in black money?
Give me some love,
But don't waste my time.
Black money.
I'll love you again,
But you must be mine.
Black money.
Give me some love,
But don't waste my time.
Black money.
Fortunes find you.
Cross out every emotion.
Standing right behind
A shadow of devotion.
Somebody else's life
Cannot be mine.
But when you love someone,
And they don't love you in return.
When you love someone,
You've got money to burn.
Do you deal in black money?
Do you deal in black money?
Do you deal in black money?
Do you deal in black money?
Give me some love,
But don't waste my time.
Black money.
I'll love you again,
But you must be mine.
Black money.
Give me some love,
But don't waste my time.
Black money.

letra de Changing Every Day
Someone says
Wake up child,
And throw your life away.
See you in the crime file,
What will your mama say?
Sometimes you get angry,
No focus in your life.
When people get hungry,
They learn how to survive.
[Chorus:]
Changing every day.
Changing every day.
Changing every day.
Changing every day.
Summer syncopation,
The space between your eyes.
Is a place for heroes,
That never compromise.
Sometimes you feel lonely,
No focus or surprise.
Pushed into production,
What a way to live our lives.
[Chorus]
That's The Way (I'm Only Trying To Help You) 2:46

letra de Church Of The Poison Mind
Desolate loving in your eyes,
you used and made my life so sweet.
Step out like a God found child,
I saw your eyes across the street.
Who would be the fool to take you,
be more that just kind?
Step into a life of maybe;
love is hard to find in the church of the poison mind,

In the church of the poison mind.
In the church of the poison mind.
in the church of the poison mind.
in the church of the poison mind.
in the church of the poison mind.
in the church of the poison mind.

Watch me clinging to the beat.
I had to fight to make it mine,
That religion you could sink it neat.
Just move your feet an' you'll feel fine.
Who would be the fool to maybe
Trick a kiss in time?
Who am I to say that's crazy?
Love will make you blind. . .

In the church of the poison mind.
In the church of the poison mind.
in the church of the poison mind.
in the church of the poison mind.
in the church of the poison mind.
in the church of the poison mind.

Desolate loving in your eyes,
you used and made my life so sweet.
Step out like a God found child,
I saw your eyes across the street.
Who would be the fool to take you,
be more that just kind?
Step into a life of maybe;
love is hard to find in the church of the poison mind,

In the church of the poison mind.
In the church of the poison mind.
in the church of the poison mind.
in the church of the poison mind.
In the church of the poison mind.
In the church of the poison mind.
in the church of the poison mind.

letra de Miss Me Blind
Miss me
I know you'll miss me
I know you'll miss me blind
I know you'll miss me
I know you'll miss me
I know you'll miss me blind
Bet you got a good gun
Bet you know how
To have some fun and then
You turn it around on me
Because I'm better than the rest of the men
I say you'll miss me
And you always do
I say you'll miss me
Now would I lie to you
Now there's no need to demand
Grab my golden hand
I'll teach you and you'll never be sure
If the way that you need
Is too much like greed
Decide if you are rich or you're poor
I know you'll miss me
I know you'll miss me
I know you'll miss me blind
Bet you make the fool run
Bet you know how
To make it last forever
But you know
I'm never really sure
If you're just kissing to be clever
I say you'll miss me
And you always do
I say you'll miss me
Now would I lie to you
Now there's no need to demand
Grab my golden hand
I'll teach you and you'll never be sure
If the way that you need
Is too much like greed
Decide if you are rich or you're poor
Because the love
That I have to give
Must be better than that kind
It can make you rich
It can make you poor
But I know that you'll miss me blind
I know you'll miss me
I know you'll miss me
I know you'll miss me blind
Mister ManVer letra 3:36

letra de Mister Man
On the street
They're preaching violence
Mr man it's in your head
On the street
The midnight cowboy
Needs no gun
To shoot you dead
Why do I live the way I do
Ain't it obvious
I'm just a man like you
Mr man full of love
Mr man full of hate
Got his heart on the trigger
But he pulled it too late
Mr man is a pilot
Mr man is a fake
Mr man's feeling hungry
And he's lying in wait
On the street
The lights are fighting
Searching for someone like you
Better find a good messiah
To help the sad and lonely through
Why do I live the way I do
Ain't it obvious
I'm much more black than blue
On the street (they're preaching violence)
Mr man it's in your head
On the street
The midnight cowboy
Needs no gun
To shoot you dead
StormkeeperVer letra 2:49

letra de Stormkeeper
Ooh I have love sweeter than lies
Gave you no reason not to decide
Say you are leaving, you've got too much pride
It's not love if you have it to hide it
Oh woe who is the man
Who puts waves on the sand
It's the stormkeeper, stormkeeper
Liven my life
When I need to survive
Is the storm keeping you warm
Keeping you warm
Oh I have cried so many times
But only for things that never were mine
Heaven is sweet, love is unkind
Thoughts are twisted inside of your mind
Don't let them tell you
That this love is wrong
And don't let them fool you
That this love can't go on
VictimsVer letra 4:53

letra de Victims
The victims we know so well
They shine in your eyes
When they kiss and tell
Strange places we never see
But you're always there
Like a ghost in my dream
And I keep on telling you
Please don't do the things you do
When you do those things
Pull my puppet strings
I have the strangest void for you
We love and we never tell
What places our hearts in the wishing well
Love leads us into the stream
And it's sink or swim
Like it's always been
And I keep on loving you
It's the only thing to do
When the angel sings
There are greater things
Can I give them all to you
Pull the strings of emotion
Take a ride into unknown pleasure
Feel like a child on a dark night
Wishing there was some kind of heaven
I could be warm with you smiling
Hold out your hand for a while
The victims we know them so well...
The victims we know so well
They shine in your eyes when they kiss and tell
Strange places we never see
But you're always there like a ghost in my dream
And I keep on telling you
Please don't do the things you do
When you do those things, pull my puppet strings
I have the strangest void for you
Show my heart some devotion
Push aside those that whisper never
Feel like a child on a dark night
Wishing there were some kind of heaven
I could be warm with you smiling
Hold out your hand for a while
The victims we know them so well, so well...

Melting PotVer letra

[X]
letra de Melting Pot
Take a pinch of white man
Wrap him up in black skin
Add a touch of blue blood
And a little bitty bit of red indian boy
Oh like a curly latin kinkies
Oh lordy, lordy, mixed with yellow chinkees, yeah
You know you lump it all together
And you got a recipe for a get along scene
Oh what a beautiful dream
If it could only come true, you know, you know
What we need is a great big melting pot
Big enough enough enough to take
The world and all it's got
And keep it stirring for
A hundred years or more
And turn out coffee coloured people by the score
Rabbis and the friars
Vishnus and the gurus
We got the beatles or the sun god
Well it really doesn't matter
What religion you choose
And be thankful little mrs. Graceful
You know that livin' could be tasteful
We should all get together in a lovin machine
I think I'll call up the queen
It' s only fair that she knows, you know, you know
What we need is a great big melting pot
Big enough enough enough to take
The world and all it's got
And keep it stirring for
A hundred years or more
And turn out coffee coloured people by the score
Coffee coloured people
Coffee coloured people
Coffee coloured people by the score
Colour By NumbersVer letra

letra de Colour By Numbers
When I looked in your eyes
Felt the spirit of man
Demanding more than just a smile
Took a chance for a while
Speaking in tongues
That float us down rivers
The past will remind us
All colours we chose
When I told you those lies
Felt the spirit of love
Demanding more than compromise
Took a chance for a while
Speaking in tongues
That float us down rivers
The past will remind us
All colours we chose
Some people say that the way that we live
Is out of this place
And some people say that the way that we live
Is blinded by fate
All colours we chose
