SUPPER'S READY
i LOVER'S LEAP
Walking across the
sitting-room, I turn the television off.
Sitting beside you, I look into
your eyes.
As the sound of motorcars fades in the night time.
I swear I
saw your face change, it didn't seem quite right . . . .. . .
And its hello
babe with your guardian eyes so blue.
Hey my baby don't you know our love is
true.
Coming closer with our eyes, a distance falls around our
bodies.
Out in the garden, the moon seems very bright.
Six saintly
shrouded men move across the lawn slowly,
The seventh walks in front with a
cross held high in hand . . . . ..
And its hey babe your supper's waiting
for you.
Hey my baby don't you know our love is true.
I've been so far
from here,
Far from your warm arms.
Its good to feel you again.
Its
been a long long time. Hasn't it?
ii. THE GUARANTEED ETERNAL SANCTUARY
MAN
I know a farmer who looks after the farm,
With water clear, he cares
for all his harvest.
I know a fireman who looks after the fire.
You,
can't you see he's fooled you all.
Yes, he's here again, can't you see he's
fooled you all.
Share his peace,
Sign the lease.
He's a supersonic
scientist,
He's the guaranteed eternal sanctuary man.
Look, look into my
mouth he cries.
And all the children lost down many paths,
I bet my
life, you'll walk inside,
Hand in hand, gland in gland,
With a spoonful
of miracle,
He's the guaranteed eternal sanctuary.
We will rock you, rock
you little snake,
We will keep you snug and warm.
iii. IKHNATON AND
ITSACON AND THEIR BAND OF MERRY MEN
Wearing feelings on our faces while our
faces took a rest,
We walked across the fields to see the children of the
West,
We saw a host of dark skinned warriors standing still below the
ground,
Waiting for battle.
Fights begun, they've been released.
Killing foe for peace . . . bang, bang, bang.
Bang, bang, bang . . .
And they've given me a wonderful potion,
'Cos I cannot contain my
emotion.
And even though I'm feeling good,
Something tells me, I'd
better activate my prayer capsule.
Today's a day to celebrate, the foe
have met their fate.
The order for rejoicing and dancing has come from our
warlord.
iv. HOW DARE I BE SO BEAUTIFUL?
Wandering in the chaos the
battle has left,
We climb up the mountain of human flesh,
To a plateau
of green grass, and green trees full of life.
A young figure sits still by a
pool,
He's been stamped "Human Bacon" by some butchery tool (he is you).
Social Security took care of this lad,
We watch in reverence, as
Narcissus is turned to a flower.
A flower?
v. WILLOW FARM
If you
go down to Willow Farm, to look for butterflies, flutterbyes, gutterflies.
Open your eyes, its full of surprise, everyone lies,
like the fox on the
rocks, and the musical box.
Oh, there's Mum and Dad, and good and bad,
and everyone's happy to be here.
There's Winston Churchill dressed in
drag,
he used to be a British flag, plastic bag, what a drag.
The frog
was a prince, the prince was a brick,
the brick was an egg,
the egg was
a bird,
Hadn't you heard?
Yes we're happy as fish, and gorgeous as geese,
and wonderfully clean in the morning.
We've got everything, we're
growing everything,
We've got some in,
We've got some out,
We've got
some wild things floating about.
Everyone, we're changing everyone,
You
name them all,
We've had them here,
And the real stars are still to
appear.
ALL CHANGE!
Feel your body melt;
Mum to mud to mad to dad
Dad diddley office,
Dad diddley office,
You're all full of
ball.
Dad to dam to dum to mum
Mum diddley washing, Mum diddley
washing,
You're all full of ball.
Let me hear your lies, we're living
this up to the eyes.
Ooee-ooee-ooee-aa
Momma I want you now.
And
as you listen to my voice
To look for hidden doors, tidy floors, more
applause.
You've been here all the time,
Like it or not, like what you
got,
You're under the soil,
Yes deep in the soil.
So we'll end with
a whistle and end with a bang and all of us fit in our places.
vi.
APOCALYPSE IN 9/8 (CO-STARRING THE DELICIOUS TALENTS OF GABBLE RATCHET)
With
the guards of Magog, swarming around,
The Pied Piper takes his children
underground.
Dragon's coming out of the sea,
Shimmering silver head of
wisdom looking at me.
He brings down the fire from the skies,
You can
tell he's doing well by the look in human eyes.
Better not compromise.
It won't be easy.
666 is no longer alone,
He's getting out the
marrow in your backbone,
And the seven trumpets blowing sweet rock and roll,
Gonna blow right down inside your soul.
Pythagoras with the
looking-glass, reflect the full moon,
In blood, he's writing the lyrics of a
brand new tune.
And its hey babe, with your guardian eyes so blue,
Hey my
baby, don't you know our love is true,
I've been so far from here,
Far
from your loving arms,
Now I'm back again, and baby it's going to work out
fine.
vii AS SURE AS EGGS IS EGGS (ACHING MEN'S FEET)
Can't you feel
our souls ignite
Shedding ever-changing colours, in the darkness of the
fading night.
Like the river joins the ocean, as the germ in a seed grows
We have finally been freed to get back home.
There's an angel
standing in the sun, and he's crying with a loud voice,
"This is the supper
of the mighty one".
Lord of Lords,
King of Kings,
Has returned to
lead his children home,
To take them to the new
Jerusalem.
