I don't mind when it rains
It's funny how it washes everything away
Makin' white clouds grey
I don't mind havin' dreams
Even though they don't end like they seem
Cause they're nothing but trouble
they're nothin' but trouble for me
Daisy
I know my time is surely come
when you forget my name
but I'm only left to blame
Daisy
If I'm wrong then I belong
away from that green light
but it keeps me warm at night
it keeps me warm at night
I don't know if you're wrong or if you're right
To keep on driving through the night
It's the one thing that I fear
When I sleep it draws you near
It's the worst things that start off without a fight
Daisy
If there is nothing left beyond
the waking of my dreams
When they're bursting at the seams
Daisy
Guilty, every one of us
below the doctor's eyes
Does it seem like a surprise
Everything we do is lies
(Instrumental)
I don't mind when it pours
Or when the rain goes through the roof and hits the floor
If it's wrong, if it's right
Doesn't matter, doesn't fight
I'll just lay in my watery grave
And wait for the night
Daisy
I hope you'll all remember me
Since I'll remember you
It's the least that you could do
Daisy
Time moves fast and things don't last
And you forget a friend
But it ain't bad in the end
Even if it's all pretend

Fool me once, don't fool me twice
Fool me once, don't fool me twice
But up here in space there's no place
for my sugar and spice
Let me fly to Saturn and Mars
Let me fly to Saturn and Mars
And we'll hum, all the way
in our flying cars
I'd like to spend a little bit time of time on the moon
I think there's something really special 'bout the galaxy groove
It got a flow it's got a rhythm in a leage of its own
I feel the history inside my bones
And the referees are screamin' right in my face
But I don't give up the race to the fools in space
You can give me some time on the open rail
You can give me some time on the open rail
But out here in space there's a place
free of county jails
But how can one little tune still sound so nice
But how can that one little tune still sound so nice
And yet when I'm out here in the stars
My heart is as cold as ice
You would think it gets so cold on a rock in the sky
But it gets warmer when I travel to a star shootin' by
Most other people pass me by and send me on my way
Or tell me I should stay
But the warden is-a yelling right in my face
But I don't give up my place to the fools in space
Ask me once why I float so far
Ask me once why I float so far
Because I can in the stars
And I got so far to go
Fool me once, don't fool me twice
Fool me once, don't fool me twice
But up here in space there's no place
for my sugar and spice

Frayed wires
Hands moving the construction line
Just on time
Gears start up
Light flickers as the engine starts
Electric Hearts
But sometimes things get switched around
Someone programmed up as being down
Stark metal is heartless and blue
And they're not like me and you
No, no, no, no
Robot love is only a lie
They don't have dreams that keep them up at night
Robot love is faulty and grey
You turn off the switch and it fades away
They don't feel love, they don't feel fear
I don't feel safe whenever they're near
Don't know what going on in their little robot heads
And their eyes are soulless and dead
Filled with wires instead
When they love I don't understand
The way they hold their robot hands
Robot love, it's only a dream
Comprising of electricity
I say hello, and you say goodbye
And they speak in numbers and I don't why
I don't understand why their love can be true
It's different from me and from you
You know it's true
(Instrumental)
Robot love is only a lie
They don't know wrong, they don't know right
Robot love is faulty and grey
You turn off the switch and it fades away
It fades away

It's been over forty years since we first walked on the moon
It's been twenty since they broke the Berlin wall
Oh it's only been a year since the day you broke my heart
and I barely felt a thing for that at all
Tear it down, down, down
Oh tear it down, down, down
I'm not an ass with a troubled past
but you treat me like a clown
so tear it down, tear it down, tear it down
Tell me about Watergate, tell me all about '58
Tell me all about the riots in the Spring
Tell me all about love and hate, give 'em to me on a silver plate
I changed my mind, don't tell me anything
Tear it down, down tear it down
Tear it down, down, down
I'm not just a man with an awful plan
But you treat me like a clown
So tear it down, tear it down, tear it down
The Jailbird wants to sing
but the Jailbird has got a broken wing
And the Jester has a crown of gold
But it's the foolish man that claims his throne
Cause it was me that saw the fire, I looked into it's eyes
It grabbed me by the hand and it took me by surprise
It told me it was waiting, I asked of its fixating
And it told me that the fire never lies
Burn it down, down, down
Burn it down, down to the ground
I'm not just the fool of a one eyed mule
But you treat me like a clown
So burn it down, burn it down, burn it down

Fool me once, don't fool me twice
Fool me once, don't fool me twice
But up here in space there's no place
for my sugar and spice
Let me fly to Saturn and Mars
Let me fly to Saturn and Mars
And we'll hum, all the way
in our flying cars
(Instrumental)
You can give me some time on the open rail
You can give me some time on the open rail
But out here in space there's a place
free of county jails
But how can one little tune still sound so nice
But how can that one little tune still sound so nice
And yet when I'm out here in the stars
My heart is as cold as ice

I look across the ocean sea
It's texture wavers endless
I see the one green light
It keeps me up at night
I had that foolish dream once more
I fell into the mansion floor
It's like a crystal ball
I touch it and it falls apart
Were you wrong, were you right
To keep on driving through the night
I don't think I can say
Was it strange coming here
Becoming all the things I fear
Now that you've gone away
Daisy
I hope that you'll remember me
Since I'll remember you
It's the least that you could do
Daisy
To be truthfull I regret I
Can't keep with it all the time
But I guess that I'll be fine
Just don't let me lose my mind
