Brethren "New Day"

(lyrics self-transcribed)

* From album: "New Day / Heather" (EP)

Opening the door of day

Into the night gone by

Wonderful world

You're coming to life

Holding my side now

Feeling excitement rush by

Watching the soft velvet hue in v the sky

[Come the sunrise

Chasing the stars from my eyes

Rays of light are filling the sky

It's a new day

Bright day is spreading its flares

Bouncing sunshine inside of me] 2x

Sudden Death "Come Away With Me"

(lyrics self-transcribed)

* From album: "Suddenly", aka: "Sudden Death"

** Recorded: 1972, released: 1995

Come away with me

Come away

To a land of peace and love

You and I

are the same and one

Together we can live for all time

Why must it be this way?

For you and me

True love in a world of pain

Can make it whole

My world is filled

With unquestionable doubt

And I don't know right from wrong

Out there is a place 

Where the way you live 

Is the way you feel 

And the way you feel is love

Come away with me

Come away

[To a land of peace and love] 2x

---------------------------------------------

Sudden Death "It's Lonely Here"

(lyrics self-transcribed)

* From album: "Suddenly", aka: "Sudden Death"

** Recorded: 1972, released: 1995

Love

Can take a man

Can break a man

Can make a life seem gone

It offers joy

I'd bring you joy

If I only could

Peace can warm your heart

Your broken heart

And make each day worthwhile

So take your fear

Deny your fear

Please look at me and smile

Pain had called for corps

It always comes

It'll leave a scar and fly

Drove you away

Don't stay away

Come back to me, I cry

 

Love is what I offer you

Peace is what I offer you

Pain is what I'd help you through

My life- your helping hand

My mind forever thinks of you

Longing just to hear from you

Reaching for that touch of you

Watching for some sign

[So cast aside] 2x

[Your fears and doubts] 2x

[And turn your thoughts] 2x

[Towards me] 2x

[I'm waiting here] 2x

[It's lonely here] 2x

---------------------------------------------

Sudden Death "The ZOO"

(lyrics self-transcribed)

* From album: "Suddenly", aka: "Sudden Death"

** Recorded: 1972, released: 1995

When I was a young man

And I saw the pain around me

I didn't realize 

That it was all a game they had planned

When I was young and innocent

I didn't understand

Just how strange it would be

When I became a man

When I was a young boy

I could see all the goodness around me

But I grew older and wise

And I could see more clearly 

[The truth] 2x

When I was young and innocent

I didn't understand

Just how strange it could be

When I became a man

[Waking, watching

Looking at the clock and wondering why] 2x

 [Look at all the people in the ZOO] 2x

In the ZOO

Why? 

[Tell me] 3x

[Why?] 3x

Does it have to be this way?

Look at all the people in the ZOO

Look at all the people, what they do

[In the ZOO] 2x

The ZOO

[Why?] 4x 

[Tell me] 2x

Look at all the people in the ZOO

Look at all the people, what they do

In the ZOO

Look 

[At you] 3x

Look at yourself, child

Waking, watching

Looking at the clock and wondering why

Look at all the people in the ZOO

Look at all the people, what they do

In the ZOO

The ZOO

Sudden Death "Road Back Home"

(lyrics self-transcribed)

* From album: "Suddenly", aka: "Sudden Death"

** Recorded: 1972, released: 1995

Lost my way, going and find road back home

Well, I've cursed my fate for having come so far alone

The sky is dark turning black, the one ahead

Sense is dead located where he finally lays

Silence calling all around, thickens wind still

Broken by even breathing cutting through the mist

Darkness closing in from the side, light is streaking road

Isolated in a world I know does not exist

Now a glow appears below and brings horizon

A golden hour of rising sun restores my presence

When it turns away, I move a way I should follow

Guiding me out of the dark into tomorrow

Silence calling all around, thickens wind still

Broken by even breathing cutting through the mist

Darkness closing in from the side, light is streaking road

Isolated in a world I know does not exist

Now a void appears, lit by something, glow

Disappearing in the distance, twisting through the night

Unaware of what I'm doing, I'm moving in a daze

Passing through the dismal dark, falling into the night

[Into the night] 3x

Night, night

See if I ever go out again

See if I learn by listen

See if I go and visit a friend wondering what I'm missing

See if I ever love and return to anyone else but you

Nothing I do another night like that, I don't know what I'll do

Lost my way, going and find road back home

I've cursed my fate for having come so far alone

Back at home, I drift to sleep, missing the scene

Just to see what I feel within my dream

---------------------------------------------

Sudden Death "My Time Is Over"

(lyrics self-transcribed)

* From album: "Suddenly", aka: "Sudden Death"

** Recorded: 1972, released: 1995

My name is unimportant, but listen to what I say

As I explain what drove me on and brought me here today

Alone I lived these long ideas, no one to call a friend

Now my time's wasted, it's come to an end

When I call this place home

I don't know that's the memory's game

Gotta find the answer

Or learn about the things that are true, are true

Six years ago I left this town, never to come back

The past looked so good to me, turned my future black

Trials went, my sentence long, penalty hard to bear

Mother passed away last fall, nobody left to care

[My time is over] 2x

My, baby, my time is over

My time is over

The secret lies within me now, no one will ever know

Mind has reached some places that my body's never been

The worst of all is over now, I want peace in my soul

Righteous feeling that I know come back again

 

My time is over

My time, time, time, time is over

Where the answer?

The answer can never be asked

Will you give the answer?

My time is over

Learn about the things that are true

Empty, I've just left my room

Leaving my heart from hand of doom

Well, my baby, she's gonna cry

'Cause, she'll see

I'm gonna die

Well, I've gotta see my woman one last time

Yes, I've gotta see my woman one last night

I'm gonna die, this is it, no second chance

And in this, I can't even change my mind

And see, I can't even open my eyes

Got a burning feeling deep inside

Well, I'm dragging in the pits of despair

And this mess, I don't think it's fair

Well, I've gotta see my woman one last time

Orange Wedge "Love Me"

(lyrics found and modified)

* From album: "Wedge"

All my life, always run

I'm never gonna see 

You don't know what you're looking for

Please, do your looking with me

I've got a long time to go on

But I don't know what I'll find

I wish I'd answer my own questions 

And I wouldn't need much time

And I could tell you how to love me

And I'd never make you sad

We'd get the kind of loving

You said we never had

A stone heart was what I had

But now you made me cry

You're leaving today 

Babe, I gotta see you try 

We've got a long time to go on

I don't know what we'll find

Let's try to answer our own questions

And we won't need no time

I could tell you how to love me

And I'd never make you sad

We'd get the kind of loving

You said we never had

---------------------------------------------

Orange Wedge "Revenge"

(lyrics self-transcribed)

* From album: "Wedge"

Looking out my window at the falling rain

Hoping things might work out before winter again

I'm going through all my thoughts here

And there's quite a few

But why do I sit and wonder 

While there's nothing left to do? 

And if you would only see 

What it means to me

We could be so happy

Just making things work out our way and laughing

[Laughing] 3x

Please still be with me in the falling rain

Loving like we used to, don't want no games

Well, we both have our thoughts here

And I know there's quite a few

But why do we sit and wonder? 

There's so much for me and you

And if you would only see

Just what it means to me

We could be so happy

Just making things work out our way and laughing

[Laughing] 3x

Orange Wedge "Keep On Livin' "

(lyrics self-transcribed)

* From album: "Wedge"

Gotta get up every morning 

Can't let the man down

Got to work all day

Can't wear no frown

Got a long-legged woman

Well, she wants the best from me

Well, I give her all I can

But she is still not free

I gotta keep on livin'

Well, I've got to survive

I gotta keep on livin'

Just to stay alive

I gotta leave my job

Well, I don't know if I should

Find a new way of livin'

But I don't know if I could

Can't forget my long-legged woman

And she expects a lot from me

Well, I give her all I can

But she's still not free

[I gotta keep on livin'

Well, I've got to survive

I gotta keep on livin'

Just to stay alive] 3x

I gotta keep on livin' 

And lovin', lovin' and livin'

Gotta keep on livin' all the time

Keep on livin'

Well, I've got to survive

Just to stay alive

Stonewall "Outer Spaced"

(lyrics self-transcribed)

* From album: "Stonewall"

Lord, I'm not the sun or lightning sky

This ain't no common to impress you

Still, I'm making it out all right

You see, I blow wind to run this blood torn heaven

I'm out in wind and rain and snow

All breaking my back

Hey, hey baby

I'm shaking, shivering, when not even loving 

Baby

You'll sigh and slowly start to squeeze me and hug me

Outer spaced

Girl, I'm, I'm, I'm out, out

So let's fly high 

That purple planet 

Glowing fire way up high

Toward pure white galaxies, still higher

I'm out in the wind and the rain and the snow

All breaking my back

Damn

Come on back baby

---------------------------------------------

Stonewall "Solitude"

(lyrics found and bit modified)

* From album: "Stonewall"

Solitude

It don't bother me 

Drifting from mountains 

To the endless sea 

When I'm alone

[When I feel 2x] like I'm almost at home

I'm flying by myself

I don't need nobody else 

Got the open air and sea

[That's all 2x] I ever need

Won't you try it, my friend? 

You'll see solitude just every way you'll be

Darkness and tranquility

But you're thinking pessimistically

All life will cease, will end

But I'm taking you

Lord taking you to save and steal you

Take my way of living, baby

Got to get back home in a hurry

Gotta get me free

Back to the birds and the bees and the trees now

All I want from you is loving

All I want is love

Say to give the ride, little baby

Make it a sweet romance now

I'm sitting by myself

Feel sad and lonely

And there's just nothing I can do

When I saw you, you were by yourself

You're looking sad and lonely too

Why don't you come with me

We'll talk a while

And take a walk down to the sea

We'll find a place where we can love each other

No one around but you and me

There's just one thing I've got to say to you

That when I'm down and feeling blue

I'll write a note and send it with my love

I've got a message just for you

Susan, Susan, was all right from the start

When I saw you I just opened up my heart

I was wondering just how we'd ever be

If I kiss you would you come and stay with me?

Oh, how happy you have made me

My troubles come my way, you just let them be

Time has changed my life, you have too

We have lots of time and things to do

Good times, good girl is where I care for her

Now I'm happy, never sad and never blue

Let's just go on and share this wonderful life

I hope someday that you will be my wife

Oh, how happy you have made me

My troubles come my way, you just let them be

Time has changed my life, you have too

We have lots of time and things to do

Susan, Susan, was all right from the start

When I saw you I just opened up my heart

I was wondering just how we'd ever be

If I kiss you would you come and stay with me?

Oh, how happy you have made me

My troubles come my way, you just let them be

Time has changed my life, you have too

We have lots of time and things to do

I've seen the seven seas

I've heard the sirens sing

A sweet song, a calling me 

I'm dreaming

In a fantasy and got it all

I'm dreaming

Of places gone

My body trails 

All awesome

I've seen when lovers die

I've sung in an angels choir

On path of love, in distant stays

For your love, I know

And you know that you been through hell

Standing there on the corner

Long blonde hair in the wind

She was known as the Venus Queen

Are you a mixture of love and fun?

Would you like to take some tea?

We watch thе sun fall in the sea

Don't want to hurt you, girl

And I'll never do

Just want to spend my days

Making love with you

Hugging and squeezing

Sweet, so pleasing

You and me, baby

You're my battery

Saving charge to me

You're my battery

Turning on better than me

Something about you girl

And, and the things you do

Nothing else to reason, think

When I'm alone with you

Loving affection

My babe, my selection

Thinking direction

And making connection

You're my battery

Saving charge to me

You're my battery

Turning on better than me

Morly Grey "You Came To Me" (lyrics found)

* From album: "The Only Truth"

You found me on that hard cold ground

Just crying to my face

Shedding tears and your hollow fears

A stamp on the human race

You came to me with soft blue eyes

Not knowing what to do

Your presence there, your dark brown hair

Just wouldn't give a clue

So I waste some more of my time

So I lose some of my mind

Act is all you've seen me do

You've never seen my home

Scratching at that goal in life

As I keep growing old

You came to me with soft blue eyes

Not knowing what to do

Your presence there, your dark brown hair

Just wouldn't givе a clue

So I waste some morе of my time

So I lose some of my mind

---------------------------------------------

Morly Grey "Peace Officer" (lyrics found)

* From album: "The Only Truth"

He rides in his car, he doesn't drive very far

He gets to the scene, they start to scream

He knows he's the heat to a lot of creeps

When he walks his the beat, he stomps and rubs his feet

He knows he's cool but these no fool

Everyone runs to a shining man in blue

When you're feeling uptight, he'll make you feel all right

Get my gun and watch the fun begin

He's a simple fool, trying to right all wrong

It's the methods he uses that makes the nеws

Let me hear your sirеn blow, all right

Dust "Walk In The Soft Rain" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Hard Attack"

I heard your voice calling

So melody free

My eyes at you are falling

But they cannot see

A walk in the soft rain alone

A walk and then everything's gone

They say the day is lonely

So totally blue

It calls out for us only

But mainly for you

A walk in the soft rain alone

A walk and then everything’s gone

You're learning to [feel me inside 2x]

I'm turning, but I just can’t hide

My love that won't wash away

From you in the soft rain

They say the time is coming

The season is here

I live by your decision

It's perfectly clear

A walk in the soft rain alone

A walk and then everything's gone

---------------------------------------------

Dust "Dust "Pull Away/So Many Times" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Hard Attack"

Waiting for something that is never coming

So I guess I'll be on my way

I know it's over, we could never make it

So I guess I'll just pull away

Girl you've been cheatin' and you've been mistreatin'

But I'm doin' the best I can

All your confusion and my disillusion

Tell me when is a man a man?

I couldn't live without you

I'd like to try

So many times I've heard your hundred stories

So many times I've heard you say goodbye

I tried to hold you, remember I told you

That I know all about your lies

Now that you're goin', your vanity's showin'

I can see it all in your eyes

I couldn't live without you

I'd like to try

So many times I've heard your hundred stories

So many times I've heard you say goodbye

Sittin' on a rock, lookin' out at the river

Thinkin' 'bout the boat that's takin' you today

Gonna take a while but soon you'll be a leavin'

Hope it's not a steamer, but it's pullin' away

Watchin' all the waves come rushin' up behind you

Kinda like an army on surprise attack

You were always sayin' that you didn't need me

I hope you really mean it, 'cause you're never comin back

Once upon a time when you were just a baby

Mama used to take you to a friend of mine

You were always happy playin' with his cannon

Then you came to me and started wastin' my time

I remember when you said you were a lover

That was just about a year ago today

All you ever knew was teasin' and a cheatin'

All you ever knew was pullin' away

Waiting for something that is never coming

So I guess I'll be on my way

I know it's over, we could never make it

So I guess I'll just pull away

Dust "Learning To Die" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Hard Attack"

When I think of all the time we had to die

I think that we should have gone somewhere away

Far from our maddening state

We could have run for miles and hidden in a storm

We could have stayed under the rain

Into the winds of time

Now the time has come for every man to die

I know how it's gonna be, black as the dead

Soon we will all be gone

And then we'd have to leave our shiny jewels behind

Diamonds and tears, women and whips

Under the earth we move

Learning to die again

Help me find a place inside this foreign land

Wondering why and when

Who can say on which day

He will call and we must learn to die again

Now the time has come for every man to die

I know how it's gonna be, black as the dead

Soon we will all be gone

And then we'd have to leave our shiny jewels behind

Diamonds and tears, women and whips

Under the earth we move

---------------------------------------------

Dust "All In All" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Hard Attack"

Somewhere somebody's born

And somewhere somebody dies

But it was only time

Somewhere somebody laughs

And somewhere somebody cries

But it was only time

It was time

Some men gotta be bad

And some men gotta be kind

But it was only time

Something's gotta be yours

And something's gotta be mine

But it was only time

Only time

It was time

Who knows and who can tell

Why the sea was living in a wishing well

And why were the clouds below my feet

And where did they put the street

They put the street

Someday you're gonna see

Something that you can find

But it was only time

I think that you can do

Anything that you try

But it was only time

[It was time] 3x

---------------------------------------------

Dust "Suicide" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Hard Attack"

[** I don't recommend suicide as solution of problems]

You know I'm bleedin', but you're still wonderin' why

You heard me screamin', cryin' out just to die

You thought I loved you, but that was all in the past

As I start crawlin', I don't know if I can last

Pretty soon I'll be gone

On a long one way ride

Tell your friends not to call

Say it was suicide

I thought of hangin', but I knew it was wrong

Then thought of poison, but what I had wasn't strong

Electrocution I thought would make me a star

I stood in the rain with my electric guitar

Pretty soon I'll be gone

On a long one way ride

Tell your friends not to call

Say it was suicide

I then decided and put a knife in my heart

It was the answer, but it was only a start

I found a shotgun and held it close to my head

And pulled the trigger just to be sure I was dead

Pretty soon I'll be gone

On a long one way ride

Tell your friends not to call

Say it was suicide

Captain Beyond (1972, USA) 5 songs

(Source of image: loudhorizon.com)

Captain Beyond "As the moon speaks
(To the waves of the sea)" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Captain Beyond"

Listen

Jump on a moonbeam and ride

Ride it, glide it all the way

As the moon speaks

To the waves of the sea

And the ocean relic

Of the times that used to be

Many years have past

Since your vision came to me

And I think of you only

As the moon speaks to the sea

Astral lady, girl I love you

Gonna dance, you make it sound

Seal keeps altars high above all

That is out of life

---------------------------------------------

Captain Beyond "Dancing Madly Backwards
(On A Sea Of Air)" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Captain Beyond"

Dancing madly backwards

Dancing on a sea

Erasing all my memories

Of blackness in my dreams

Tiptoe, tiptoe quickly

Forget about your cares

And remember underneath you

Is just a sea of air

Just remember underneath you

Is just a sea of air

Wishing all your wishes

Landing on a star

Knowing you are planted here

And knowing that's so far

Dance, dance faster

Madly dance away

But remember underneath you

Is just a sea of air

Just remember underneath you

Is just a sea of air

Well, it's alright now, look it face to face

Don't complain, if it seems too late

No no no no no

Ah, 'cause I'm not sitting on the golden gate

Love and peace and war and hate

No no no no no

Well I'm not gonna sit around and wait

All I'm doing is losing my place

No no no no

But we're all on stage and that's for sure

Searching is endless when there ain't no cure

---------------------------------------------

Captain Beyond "Armworth"
(lyrics found and bit modified)

* From album: "Captain Beyond"

What was my arm worth
when they took it away?

In the spirited rush
that set up Armistice Day

Where did they put it, Bella
where and which way?

Did it stop the mad charge
that the enemy made?

Or is it with my brother
is it with my brother in a mean endless grave?

Tell me, where, tell me

Where will I go to find it?

What has my arm gained
in the balance of things?

Are there still birds flying
in a brushing of wings?

Or do they still see the skies,
still see the skies as a terrible thing?

We're spoiling all their singing, babe
and smashing up their wings

Wish I could go with them, brother,
but of all things it's only a stub of the original thing

That was there when I signed up and saluted my king

Where, tell me

Where do I go to find it?

---------------------------------------------

Captain Beyond "I can't feel nothin'
(Part 1)" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Captain Beyond"

Stand near me, baby, trying to find myself

I'm looking out the window seeing no one else

I can't remember whether it's night or day

My mind is burning and it don't feel right

No, I can't feel nothin'!

I can't feel nothin'! No! No!

Thinking of oceans, birds in the sky

A feeling has coming but it just ain't right

The sky's black and it makes stars, winking at the night

The orange world is sinking, tomorrow's burning bright

[I can't feel nothin'] 4x

---------------------------------------------

Captain Beyond "Myopic Void" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Captain Beyond"

[I no longer saw color

Only gray, only gray] 6x

[Dancing madly backwards

Dancing on a sea of air] 4x

Bang (1972, USA) 4 songs

(Source of image: discogs.com)

Bang "Future Shock" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Bang"

Can you feel those tidal waves

Slashing knives of endless change

Screwing up your patterned lives

Raining down wretched strife

Hashish dreams - Junkie screams

Crocodile tears - Escape your fears

Apathetic nine to five

Cashing paychecks to survive

Vandals lurking in the streets

Gloat behind their worthless feats

Hashish dreams - Junkie screams

Crocodile tears - Escape your fears

Crying - dying

Crying - dying

Teenyboppers idolize

Cash and carry packaged highs

Figurines stalk your space

Home is nothing but a place

Fearing ours will be their fate

Those across the water wait

Creeping tides mount their shore

Ominous rumble groans to roar

Hashish dreams - Junkie screams

Crocodile tears - Escape your fears

Crying - dying

 Crying - dying 

Future Shock

-----------------------------------------

Bang "Redman" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Bang"

Nations died and lost their land

In Sacred grounds turned to sand

Our leaders's words, cries of their kin

Swirl around us adrift in the wind

A weapon of war invaded mankind

Fatal germs killed all left behind

Sparing those few who fled under ground

Unlike the Redman would never be found

We all need a wishing star

A spirit to tell us who we are

Our future's unclear; it's baked in the clay

Give us the chance to start a new day

Start a new day

Why we were spared we may never know

We're given a choice a gun or a bow

Beneath our feet the survivors have died

Again through the calm of nature we ride

We all need a wishing star

A spirit to tell us who we are

Our future's unclear it's baked in the clay

We have the chance to start a new day

Start a new day 

---------------------------------------------

Bang "The Queen" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Bang"

Yesterday she ran her house

Milking bashful buyers

When money creased her waiting hand

She catered strange desires

Her splendid easy woman

Would gladly grace your side

Beneath their creamy ecstasy

Revealing scars they hide

Beneath the glow of a neon sky

She vowed to find her fame

No matter what the price may be

She'd do it just the same

No matter what the price may be

She'd do it just the same

Then one day a mark appeared

Set for any price

Requesting service so bizarre

No one could he entice

The Queen alone could see delight

In his twisted head

With racing pulse and burning thighs

She led him to her bed

[Beneath the glow of a neon sky

She vowed to find her fame

No matter what the price may be

She'd do it just the same

And now we watch her closing door

Her dream will soon take wing

Her need for fame is over now

The Queen has found a King] 2x

Her need for fame is over now

The Queen has found a King

Bang "Come With Me" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Bang"

Everyone come with me

Leave your world, come and see

Do the things you like to do

Come with me for eternity

No pain, can't go insane

No work, can't go berserk

Just happy days, no worldly ways 

Never eat, never sleep

Explore a path of peaceful dreams

Forget those dreary bummer scenes

No evil eye, no need to lie

In simple ways we'll live our days

No pain, can't go insane

No work, can't go berserk

Just happy days, no worldly ways

Never eat, never sleep

[Friends are gone, it won't be long

Leave your world, come with me] 2x

Everyone come with me

Leave your world, come and see

Do the things you like to do

Come with me for eternity

No pain, can't go insane

No work, can't go berserk

Just happy days, no worldly ways 

Never eat, never sleep

Come with me

Everyone

Come with me

[Everyone come with me] 2x

Come with me
