Lyrics:
Captain Richardson
Left himself a lonely wife in Hull.
Cherub,
I lost a ship in the Baltic sea.
I'm on an iceberg running free.
Sitting,
Filing this berg to the shape of a ship;
Sailing my way back to your lips.
Captain Richardson left himself a lonely wife in Hull.
Cherub, I lost a ship in the Baltic sea.
I'm on an iceberg running free.
Sitting, filing this berg to the shape of a ship;
Sailing my way back to your lips.
I've alternated my meager flock
To the shores of the Baltic Sea
The teeth of time have stowed the rhyme
Of how things should be
My cave, my house, my turning wheel
My little docking pup
The march of Colonel Forbin
And his fleet hound called McGrupp
The grime of countless workdogs
Has collected in my sink
I tie my nose with spandex hose
Before I get a drink
While on frozen warthogs
With its poison in our minds
The ferns that spot our children
Are encased in orange rinds
All times and seasons are the reasons
That people and their clans
Have stowed the Famous Mockingbird
With glue and rubber bands
They writhe and cry in agony
As Rutherford the Brave
Chokes Tela and the Unit Monster
Managing to save
The spotted striper's multi-beast
And there by cheat his grave
I'd like to get his autograph
But he looks too much like Dave
Look up from the hymnal, look 'round at the faces
Of families closing their eyes
We're taking Communion and passing the offering hat
Around at the same time
I reached for the hat and take all the cash
And slide it into my ragged coat sleeve
And leave in its place a note to explain
All of the reasons that stealing has led me to leave
If there was a worthy cause for to give to
May I be so bold as to say
The givers not knowing where their money's going
Is as sinful as throwing away
Stained glasses shine on my red wine
And the sweat of my brow drips to my shaking knees
A small sacrifice to benefit one man's journey
Away from America's seas
Sweet, sweet sigh of relief, sweet, sweet oh Baltic Sea
Sweet, sweet sigh of relief, sweet, sweet oh Baltic Sea
Sweet, sweet sigh of relief, sweet, sweet oh Baltic Sea
Nobody here knows my name
Call it right or wrong
I bought my ticket just the same
I'm mixing business with leather
Christmas with Heather
Freaks flock together
And make all the be-boys scream
All right
Turn it up now
All right
Turn it up now
Word up to the man thing
She's always cold lamping
Visine at the canteen
I just want to watch you dance
Do you want to ride on the Baltic Sea
I'll be your mistress C.O.D.
I'll comb your hair
Re-write your diary
Pour champagne on a honey bee
She can really do me
She can look right through me
And make all the be-boys scream
I'm mixing fitness with leather
Homework with Heather
Freaks flock together
And make all the lesbians scream
All right
Turn it up now
All right
Turn it up now
I'm mixing business with leather
Christmas with Heather
Freaks flock together
And make all the be-boys scream
All right
Turn it up now
All right
Turn it up now
Word up to the man thing
She's always cold lamping
Visine at the canteen
I just want to watch you dance
Do you want to ride on the Baltic Sea
I'll be your mistress C.O.D.
I'll comb your hair
Re-write your diary
Pour champagne on a honey bee
She can really do me
She can look right through me
And make all the be-boys scream
I'm mixing fitness with leather
Homework with Heather
Freaks flock together
And make all the lesbians scream
All right
Turn it up now
All right
Turn it up now
I wanna lay by a lake in Norway, I
I wanna walk through Swedish fields of green
I wanna see the forests of Finland, I
I wanna sail on a boat on the Baltic sea
I wanna feel the Russian winter, I
I wanna go to my Polish grandmother's home
I wanna see Hungarian lanterns, I
I wanna walk on the road that leads to Rome
I wanna be free as the winds that blow past me
Clear as the air that I breath
To be young as the morning
And old as the sea
I wanna lose myself in the Scottish highlands, the
West coast of Ireland, the
Cornish breeze
I wanna rest my bones in the Spanish sunshine, the
Italian coastline is calling me
To be free as the birds that fly past me
Light as the fish in the sea
To be wise as the mountains
And tall as the trees
And I wanna be sunny and bright as a sunrise
Happy and full as the moon
I'm fleeting like fireworks fading too soon
Across the ether, out of your speaker.
To the Baltic Fleet and Atlantic Fleet.
Faster than the breeze over stormy seas.
[Chorus: x2]
Through America to Albania.
I've alternated my meager flock
To the shores of the Baltic Sea
The teeth of time have stowed the rhyme
Of how things should be
My cave, my house, my turning wheel
My little docking pup
The march of Colonel Forbin
And his fleet hound called McGrupp
The grime of countless workdogs
Has collected in my sink
I tie my nose with spandex hose
Before I get a drink
While on frozen warthogs
With its poison in our minds
The ferns that spot our children
Are encased in orange rinds
All times and seasons are the reasons
That people and their clans
Have stowed the Famous Mockingbird
With glue and rubber bands
They writhe and cry in agony
As Rutherford the Brave
Chokes Tela and the Unit Monster
Managing to save
The spotted striper's multi-beast
And thereby cheat his grave
I'd like to get his autograph
But he looks too much like Dave [4-6 x]
Janine
OW, DRINK YOU you-OOOO
Janine
Janine
I sing,
If you were the Baltic Sea and I were a cup(uh-huh)
If you were the Baltic Sea and I were a cup(uh-huh)
If you were the Baltic Sea and I were a cup(uh-huh)
THANK YOU MINEAPOLIS
(Gripping the wheel his knuckles went white with desire
The wheels of his Mustang exploding on the highway like a slug from a .45
True Death: 400 Horsepower of maximum performance piercing the night
This is Black Sunshine.)
Yeah! Move me in the silence Baltic motorway
Hang me on the edge before I fall away
Apocalypse is dawnin' action on the mile
A 'can-do' revolution, earth to the river [nile]
Sweet'n the ride Black Sunshine
Sweet'n the ride, yeah!
My birthplace would be hard to find
It changed so many times
I'm not sure where it belongs
But they tell me the Baltic coast is full of amber
And the land was green
Before the tank came
One day I learned just how it used to be
The devils' curse brought the whole world to it's knees
And it was "Hey you, keep your head down
Don't look around, please don't make a sound
If they should find you now
The Man will shoot you down"
It's a mighty long way out of the darkness
To where the sun is free to shine
Oh!
Gripping the wheel, his knuckles went white with desire
The wheels of his Mustang exploding on the highway
Like a slug from a 45, true death
400 horsepower of maximum performance piercing the night
This is Black Sunshine
Yeah, move me in the silence Baltic motorway
Hang me on the edge before I fall away
Apocalypse is dawnin' action on the mile
A 'Can-do' revolution, earth to the river Nile
Sweeten the ride Black Sunshine
Sweeten the ride, yeah
Sweeten the ride Black Sunshine
Sweeten the ride, yeah
Cry a river 'Cosmic', moon in Scorpio
Feel her body 'Breathe', acid radio
Tell me that you like it, when I'm going down
Tell me that you like it, move to the speed of sound
Sweeten the ride Black Sunshine
Sweeten the ride, yeah
Sweeten the ride Black Sunshine
Sweeten the ride, yeah, go
Slide into, I said, "44", cool heart can a hypnotize
Dream into infinity, I turned the love to lies
Crawl across the water, wave and sink into the sea
Reflect'n onto everything, that you can never be, check out
Yeah, to the devil a daughter comes 2000 worlds away, yeah
Born to lose the love you choose, destroy another day, check out
Sweeten the ride Black Sunshine
Sweeten the ride, yeah
Sweeten the ride Black Sunshine
Sweeten the ride
Stare into the TV, kiss off the pain
Wonderland is falling, no sing, no rain
Momentary damage into the high
Drift me to the circuit sky
Finally nothing moves, high noon
Black top rolling below the asphalt drive
A concrete fascination scraping the edge of nothing
This is Black Sunshine
(Gripping the wheel his knuckles went white with desire
The wheels of his Mustang exploding on the highway like a slug from a .45
True Death: 400 Horsepower of maximum performance piercing the night
This is Black Sunshine)
Yeah! Move me in the silence Baltic motorway
Hang me on the edge before I fall away
Apocalypse is dawnin' action on the mile
A 'can-do' revolution, earth to the river
Sweet'n the ride Black Sunshine
Sweet'n the ride, yeah!
Look up from the hymnal, look 'round at the faces of families closing their eyes
We're taking communion and passing the offering hat around at the same time

All of the reasons that stealing has led me to leave

sweet sweet sigh of relief
Sweet sweet o Baltic sea
Sweet sweet sigh of relief
Sweet sweet o Baltic sea
Sweet sweet sigh of relief
Sweet sweet o Baltic sea
Nobody here knows my name
Call it right or wrong
I bought my ticket just the same
Cobbled to your trail
Bevel through the speech
In the harbors I was hanging on
Cradled wrought and weak
Hardly aching for your drum
I'll be able when you're airborne
Peddle all the marble
Tell them all, "Be missing me"
Fought from the mainstay
Unhung from a halter
I am back from Baltic, now
It's been raining
Now I'm having you are haven, dear
Pond in north face eyes center's sable
Just like cinders in a prairie fire
Pave in the broad charring up
The tall trees mawde'em
Well it's maple for their deputy
Got another novel and I'd wash down ravines
You're my main in
How that you have altered
Sure is to some fine degree
It's not careening
I am having you are haven, dear
(I am having you are haven, dear)
Storm warning on the radio
Flags and banners
Armageddon on the late night show
And like my father before
We've got love on the barricades
Sweethearts who miss
Battle hymns and hit parades
Armageddon cascades
What's my name
Jack of spades
Outside my window
Is darkness and rain
And I'm only dreaming
Til the sun shines again
Got nothing but a uniform
General issue and rules that I will warn
On my name tags are sewn
Serial number stamped across my name
My fate is decided by kangaroo court
It's insane
Tin soldiers marching in flame
What's my name
Jack of spades
Outside my window
Is darkness and rain
And I'm only dreaming
Until the sun shines again
There's no phoenix rising
And the future's stillborn
Dark shadows are dancing
My coat of colors is torn
In Euro
Yeah, oh.
Supernova on the Baltic Sea
Push button logic dehumanizing me
And it gets a lot like TV
We've got children starving in the streets
Genocide's the fashion
And no man withstands its heat
Kings and pawns all compete
First gets the oil and the gold
Outside my window
Clouds fill my sky
And I'm only dreaming
That there's still time to turn the tide
There's no phoenix rising
And the future's stillborn
Dark shadows are dancing
My coat of colors is torn
In Euroshima
Oh no
Euro
Euroshima
Oh no
Euro
Down the river, down the road,
Little Rock, Tokyo, dusty trail,
Flagstaff, in a faded photograph, Thunderstorm,
Golden Sands, Cape of Horn, Pakistan, Surinam, Highway One,
Chinatown, smoking gun. Golden Gate, Baltic Sea,
Painted Desert, Laramie, Taj Mahal, Cameroon,
Back in time, to the moon, frozen lake, cypress trees,
Florida's missing keys, El Dorado, Spain or bust,
Eiffel Tower, Paris, just find your way in.
This is black sunshine.)
Yeah! move me in the
Silence Baltic motorway hang me on the edge before i
Fall away - apocalypse is dawnin' action on the mile. a
"Can-do" revolution - earth to the river [nile] sweet'n
The ride - black sunshine - sweet'n the ride - yeah - sweet'n
The ride - black sunshine - sweet'n the ride - yeah!
You're right, new things are great
They shine and they're never late
Don't break down on the interstate
You're right, new things are great
Good point, money ain't everything
But honey, having none sure stings
I love angels but I need kings
Good point, money ain't everything
I know that I can't buy
Happiness or love or time
But if anything could be mine
Then what I'd do is take fifth avenue
Niagra falls too and maybe everything blue
And what I'd rather do
Is just stay right here with you
Laying on your futon, futon, futon
Laying on your futon, futon, futon
So much for being brave
When chivalry is aftershave
And what you drive is how you weigh in or out
So let's say hypothetically
That I own the baltic sea
To sink or swim you've got to ask please
Would I feel better if I had the keys?
I know that I can't buy
Happiness or love or time
But if anything could be mine
Then what I'd do is take fifth avenue
And what picasso drew
Or the mountains of peru
And what I'd rather do
Is just stay right here with you
Laying on your futon, futon, futon
Laying on your futon, futon, futon
So c'mon baby pass the grass
Is that remote underneath your ass
Cause I can't find it anywhere
M-m-m-m baby I should run downstairs
And grab us both a sweet coldstone
You want a cup or a waffle cone
Or hapiness or love or time
Or maybe I'll just take fifth avenue
I'll take the pyramids too
And maybe classes in kung fu or jiu jit'su
And what I'd rather do
Is just stay right here with you
Laying on your futon, futon, futon
Laying on your futon, futon, futon
Laying on your futon, futon, futon
Laying on your futon, futon, futon
Oh, Jesus we live in such a special place
What do we do to deserve this fate
How long can it it last what must be done
To keep it like heaven for our little children
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
Falling in love in times of war
I'm on fire
This is for Kennedy
This is for love
This is for Tienanmen square
This is for America
Falling in love in times of war
These are the days for remembering
Kennedy King Tienanmen square
These are names worth remembering
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
Falling in love in times of war
I'm on fire
I walked strange shores in search of my country
I been away talking to the aliens
If we don't do something soon
The earth is gonna look just like the moon
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
Falling in love in times of war
I'm on fire
Where were you when the word was changing
Where were you when the passion was new
Stand a little closer to the fire
These are times worth remembering
Setting my tongue on fire
Writing in the book of people
My guitar it will not sleep
Remembering all the people.....the warriors
I'm on fire
I'm on fire
The bravest of all are falling in love
People on fire
From the red square to the Berlin wall
The Baltic sea to the streets of Managua
People on fire ... words on fire
I'm on fire ....worlds on fire
Next is Washington
Next is America
I'm on fire............!!!
Nah, okay then copy
Baltic, Baltic, do you copy? Watch it
Baltic, Baltic, do you copy? Watch it
I just wanna ball, Baltic (Yeah)
Who you gonna call?
Sailing on waves
In the Baltic breeze
Estonian shores
Perfect harmony
Livin' in the glory
Of this Baltic gem
Where the joys endless
Beginning to end
Docked in Tallinn city
With its charm and grace
Walking through the streets
At a leisurely pace
Sun shining bright
On the cobblestone streets
Estonia's beauty
Can't be beat
Oh Baltic Bliss
Where Estonia's dreaming
Sailing on the waves with love and peace
Baltic Bliss
Where life's serene
In Estonia's glory
We find our release
Waves crashing
Ocean breeze
In Estonia
We find our ease
Sailing on the Baltic sea
Feeling so free
With every wave that comes my way
I can live another day
Oh Baltic Bliss
Where life's serene
In Estonia's glory
We find our release
Oh Oh, Baltic Bliss
Oh Baltic Bliss
Where life's serene
In Estonia's glory
We find our release
Oh Baltic Bliss
Where life's serene
In Estonia's glory
We find our release
Edrych trwy y ffenestr ym Mae Colwyn
Chwalu 'wet wipes' mewn cadair olwyn
Awydd teimlo'r rhyddid o bod yn y mor
Ond mae'r arwydd yn dweud na
Mae'r e-coli wedi bod
Edrych trwy y gwydyr
Dilyn y cardotyn
Yfed Red Stripe i lawr yn y dyffryn
Ond paid a son os dwi'n goro cychwyn 'gluro
Ydi'r tabledi ma i fod i neud chdi flino

Poen yn y Baltics
Byth yn sgorio hat-tricks
Hogyn digon taclus
Poen yn y Baltics

Llwybyr yr arfordir, lawr at y clogwyn
Nol fewn i'r llyfrgell cychwyn o'r cychwyn
Sefyll ar y cyrion, gweiddi mewn i'r gwacter
Fel actor yn gwneud ei waith cartref
