MOMMA
ROLL OVER BEETHOVEN
FROM THE SUN TO THE WORLD
KUIAMA
IN OLD ENGLAND TOWN
(J.Lynne)
Down, down, you can see them all,
Rising gaily to the top,
Keep on rising babe you know you got a long drop,
You better cling cos it's the done thing
Down, down, at the Policemans Ball,
They're all dancing in a line,
Keep on gruntin boys you know you're doin' fine,
Come quickly I've been strangled.
Down, down, at the Military,
They're all marching round and round,
Keep them boots shined and that stiff upper lip down,
Ablution Revolution.
Down, down, at the launching pad,
Giant phallus stands erect,
Ten thousand tons of waste throb then eject,
Look out space, we're gonna change our place.
Down, down, in old England Town,
There was air and now there's smoke,
Let's build more cars and drive away before we choke,
Suddenly it's always night time.
Down, down, at the nice Trade Fair,
All the money gone astray,
Let's inflate this place and float away,
Just you and me and everyone
MOMMA
(J.Lynne)
She came up from the country with a smile for everyone,
She left her blue horizon just to find another home,
A lonely girl who'd travelled many days,
A lonely heart that could not find a way.
Chorus:
And she said Momma, it's a hard life now you're gone,
Momma, it's so hard to carry on,
And I fell I'm a fool who lost it all,
You used to make it all so very clear
That life must go on though the end is near,
Oh Momma, it's a sad and lonely life.
A misty morin rider she came wanderin through the hills,
A wanderin soul appearin over rainy window sills,
A loser in her heart but in her face,
A smile for everyone under God's grace.
(Chorus)
Midnight maiden madness,what to search for in this place,
Gateway to the city, night sky shadows on her face,
A lady lost in nowhere but her stare,
Leaves the world, her life to start somewhere.
(Chorus)
ROLL OVER BEETHOVEN
(C. Berry)
Gonna write a little letter gonna mail it to my local DJ,
It's a jumpin little record I want my jockey to play,
Roll Over Beethoven,gotta hear it again today.
My temperature's risin, the juke box's blowin a fuse,
My heart's beatin a rhythm, singin out rhythm and blues,
Roll Over Beethoven, they're rockin in two by two.
Well if you feel like it, go get your lover and reel and rock it,
Roll it over and move on up now, go for cover and reel and rock it,
Roll it over, Roll Over Beethoven, tell Tchaikovsky the news.
Early in the morning I'm a given you the warnin,
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes,
Hey diddle diddle gonna play my fiddle, I ain't got nothin to lose,
Roll Over Beethoven, tell Tchaikovsky the news.
She wiggles like a glow-worm, dances like a spinning top,
She got a crazy partner, you should of seen her reel and rock,
Long as she got a dime, the music will never stop.
Well you feel you like it, go get your lover an reel and rock it,
Roll it over and move on up now, go for cover and reel and rock it,
Roll it over, Roll Over Beethoven, dig it in these rhythm and blues.
Roll Over Beethoven, Roll Over Beethoven,
Roll Over Beethoven, Roll Over Beethoven,
Roll Over beethoven, dig these rhythm and blues.
FROM THE SUN TO THE WORLD
(J.Lynne)
Listen to me sister, I got news from the governor,
And he's heard people shouting from the towers in the city,
While their babies grow in test tubes over night.
Run and fetch the priest cos there's a light on in the building,
And there's sounds blowin out in the music of the night,
And we should try to get the people out alive.
Movin' cross the ocean with the flag of death a'flyin,
The demon butcher pointin out the message on the tide,
And the demons light a'sailin at his side.
Stormin down the airwaves comes the protest and the prayin,
And the love that shone down from the sun to the world,
No longer could support the life it gave.
KUIAMA
(J.Lynne)
My my Kuiama, she came in the morning,
She smiled but the tears on her little face
Showed the pain that had been in that far off place,
So sad, treated so bad.
My my Kuiama, don't break your heart tryin,
To say how your Ma and your Pa passed away,
And they left you to wander the ruin and decay,
Real mean, that bullet machine.
See here Kuiama, now ten thousand miles,
Is a long way and you're here today,
And you won't go back so you might say hello,
How do you do.
Kuia stop your cryin, there's no bombs a'fallin,
No horsemen in the night a'ridin through your dreams,
And tearing at your life, baby goodnight.
No more silver rain will hit your ground,
And no more guns will sound and no more life be drowned.
No more trenchies where the soldiers lie and,
No more people die, beneath that big black sky.
Wake up Kuiama, I got somethin to tell you,
It's just that I mean, well that is to say,
That I'm trying to explain but I'll start again for you,
I must be true.
Kuia in this country, they got rules with no reason,
They teach you to kill and they send you away
With your gun in your hand you pick up your pay,
So cool, that no mercy tool.
Kuia please believe me, I just couln't help myself,
I wanted to run but they gave me a gun
And they told me the duty I owed to my fatherland,
I made my stand.
Kuia I just shot them, I just blew their heads open,
And I heard them scream in their agony,
Kuiama she waits there for me,
True blue, you saw it through.
