THE BIG FLOW LYRICS ----------

WAITING

STAY WAITING ON WAILING SOFAS
WATCHING YOU TELLS ME YOU GAVE UP THE SAILING

LOCATING - TO GET ON THE SCENE - TALKING BACKWARDS - DEBATING MATTERS
IT COULD HAVE BEEN - OBSESSION - WHAT'S DRIVING ME NOW TOO MAD TO SAY NO
I'M READY - TO FIGHT YOU - YOU AIN'T HELPLESS - BUT TAUGHT TO PAY NO
ATTENTION - GETTING AWARE OF ME - IS A WAKE UP CALL FOR SAD VOLCANOS

I'M WADING INTO YOUR KOMA
WHY STAY LOW NOW THAT YOU GAVE UP THE SAILING

I'LL TAKE YOU - LIKE VITAMINS - INSTRUCTED - BY AWSOME LETTERS
IT OUGHT TO BE - PURE PASSION WHAT'S DRIVING ME NOW TOO SAD TO SAY NO
I'M READY - TO FIGHT YOU - YOU AIN'T HELPLESS - BUT TAUGHT TO PAY NO
ATTENTION - SO WHO'LL EVER ASK - WHO FILLED UP TRUTH WITH DARK CONTAINERS

I'M WAITING - WAITING

LOCATING - SIGHT UNSEEN - TALKING SPANISH - PREPARING LETTERS
IT'S GOTTA BE - SALVATION - WHAT'S DRIVING ME TOO GLAD TO SEE YOU

STAY WAITING ON BURNING SOFAS
WATCHING YOU TELLS ME YOU GAVE UP THE SAILING

I'M WAITING - STAY WAITING
I'M WAITING - STAY WAITING

SO LOW

SO LOW - SO SOLEMNLY
SOLO - COMES SUDDENLY (YEAH)
ANSWER ME - DON'T FOLLOW ME
YOU WON'T ASK FOR AN ANSWER TO BE THE REPLY.
TRAILS OF JOY AND DAYS OF MISSING - LIKE RAISINS ON THE FLOOR
I'LL LEAVE BEHIND THE LINE OF WISHES - LEAVING

SO LOW - SO SOLEMNLY
TOO LOW - TO FOLLOW ME (YEAH)
YOU KNOW ME - SO THOROUGHLY
IF YOU'D ASK FOR THE ANSWER WHO'D BE THE REPLY?
YOU BROKE THE LINE TO MAKE YOUR MISSION - FOOTPRINTS ON MY DOOR
NEVER HELPED TO MAKE ME LISTEN - I'M LEAVING

SO LOW - SO SOLEMNLY
NO LOWS - COULD BOTHER ME (YEAH)
YOU KNOW ME - APPARENTLY
DON'T ASK ME FOR AN ANSWER TO BE THE REPLY.
A TRACE OF LOVE AND TRAILS OF MISSING - FLAT RAISINS ON THE FLOOR
I'VE LEFT BEHIND THE LINES OF WISHING - LEAVING

SO LOW - SO SOLEMNLY
SOLO - NOT ON MY KNEES (YEAH)
YOU KNOW ME - SO THOROUGHLY
SO DON'T ASK FOR AN ANSWER AS I'M THE REPLY.
TRAILS OF PAIN AND WAYS OF MISSING - OR FOOTPRINTS ON MY DOOR
NEVER HELPED TO MAKE ME LISTEN - I'M LEAVING

SO LOW - SO SOLEMNLY
TOO LOW - TO FOLLOW ME (YEAH)
WAY - TOO SOLEMNLY
SOLO - COMES SUDDENLY
SO LOW...

SCION

SCION HE SAID ONE MORNING - GO AND FIND OUT
THEY'RE ALL LOOKING SAD - DON'T KNOW WHAT'S MISSING
SCION HE SAID, THEY'LL SAY THEY'RE UNDERSTANDING
WHAT YOU'RE GONNA SAY TO MAKE THEM LISTEN

SAY - I'M NO SAVIOUR TO SAVE - IT'S JUST ME
SEE - WHO'LL SURRENDER AND REMEMBER - JUST ME?

SCION HE SAID, DESCENT TO SAVE THE LONELY,
THEY CAN'T GO AHEAD IF NOTHING'S MISSING
SCION HE SAID, NO ANCIENT CEREMONIES,
YOU ONCE NEARLY DIED ´CAUSE THEY DON'T LISTEN

SAY - I'M NO SAVIOUR TO SAVE - IT'S JUST ME
SEE - WHO'LL SURRENDER AND REMEMBER - JUST ME

SCION HE SAID, THEY LOVE TO BE DEPENDING
THEY'RE ALL DOING FINE - FIND OUT WHAT'S MISSING (not missing to...)

SAY - I'M NO LEADER I AIN'T SPECIAL - IT'S JUST ME
SEE - I'M NO SAVIOUR TO SAVE - IT'S JUST ME

SEE - WHO'LL SURRENDER AND REMEMBER - JUST ME?
SAY - I'M NO SAVIOUR TO SAVE - IT'S JUST ME...
SAY - I'M NO SAVIOUR TO SAVE - IT'S JUST ME - JUST ME - JUST ME...

ASSALAMU ALAIKUM

MINES IN MY SOUL BLAST IF I ONLY THINK OF YOU
NEVER GONNA BITE ONE'S BAIT - AS I WAS TAUGHT YOUR AIMS AIN'T TRUE
STARING THROUGH MY WINDOW PANE - WATCH YOU DIGGING ON MY GROUND
TO POST SOME FLAGS AND TANKS - SHOWS WHO'S UP AND WHO'S AROUND

LET'S GET BACK TO THE MINIMUM TO GET AWAY FROM THE MINIMAL TALK
ASSALAMU ALAIKUM MY LITTLE WHITE GODS
WHY DON'T YOU RAISE YOUR HANDS AND BURN THAT FENCE DOWN
BETTER GET BACK TO THE MINIMUM TO GET AWAY FROM THE MINIMAL TALK
ASSALAMU ALAIKUM MY LAZY WHITE DOVE
WHY DON'T YOU SPREAD YOUR WINGS TO LEAVE THAT ZOO...

LET'S BETTER GET BACK TO THE MINIMUM TO GET AWAY FROM THE MINIMAL TALK
SHALOM I LIKE EM - MY LITTLE WHITE GODS
WHY DON'T THEY RAISE THEIR HEADS AND POP THAT FENCE DOWN
BETTER GET BACK TO THE MINIMUM TO GET AWAY FROM THE MINIMAL TALK
ASSALAMU ALAIKUM MY LITTLE WHITE DOVE
WHY DON'T YOU SPREAD YOUR WINGS TO LEAVE THAT ZOO NOW

WARRIORS OF BELIEF - OR VICTIMS OF THE TWISTED WORD
NEVER GONNA BITE ONE'S BAIT - RATHER GONNA BITE THE DIRT
STARING THROUGH MY WINDOW PANE: BRANDNEW FLAGPOLES ON MY GROUND
FUNNY LAST REVENGE: TO LOCK ME IN WON'T KEEP ME DOWN

LET'S GET BACK...
LET'S BETTER...

MINES IN MY SOUL BLAST IF ONLY THINK OF YOU
WE NEVER GONNA BITE ONE'S BAIT - EVEN IF YOUR STORY WAS TRUE

LET'S GET BACK...
LET'S BETTER...

WARRIORS OF BELIEF - OR VICTIMS OF A TWISTED WORLD
NEVER GONNA BITE ONE'S BAIT - UNLESS WE'RE FORCED TO BITE THE DIRT

LET'S GET BACK TO THE MINIMUM
BETTER GET BACK TO THE MINIMUM
LET'S GET BACK TO THE MINIMUM
WHY DON'T YOU SPREAD YOUR WINGS TO LEAVE THAT ZOO

LET'S BETTER...

ZOO NOW - WHO NOW?

LET'S BETTER...

MOURNING SON

GOOD MORNING, MORNING SUN
THE STARS ARE GONE AND A NEW DAY DAWNS LAUGHING
GOOD MORNING, MOURNING SON
DON'T STOP BLAMING YOUR POOR PARENTS FOR KNOWING NOTHING

wrapped my dreams ´round a flagpole - described the soul as a tadpole, dead bowl
expelling you is killing me - irretrievably cut from harmony
it's taking my soul to the threshold - light disappears in a black hole
love's the milk to the coffee - spread or spilled, a broken cup's empty

find myself at a threshold - do boombays die when they're getting old, finding gold?
something keeps telling me - no side of me is any better than a hole in a blindfold
distract myself at the threshold - yet hear these words as an echo (echo)
seesaw inside of me in nomine nothing - is leading me back to where the sad things are

CRY ON MY MOURNING SON
NOW YOU KNOW YOUR DAD DIDN'T WANT YOU TO KNOW HIM
IT AIN'T THE MORNING SUN
IT'S THE LIMELIGHT AND THE EPILOG'S JUST BEGINNING

wrapped your soul ´round a sad pole - describe the world being a wet mole, tadpole
did anybody count on me - did ever anybody say how it's gonna be?
find myself at the threshold - pop disappeared in a jazzhole
i understood how to cool the rules down - to make the whole cake gonna cool down

fight my tears at the threshold - can't hide your fears with a sad soul, who said so?
guilty or not? i mean - it's more than i've ever seen
free will or not? i mean - this ain't no magazine
fighting myself at the threshold - means to end up dead in a fashional trash hole
guilty or not? i mean - more than that - don't wanna be another victim of conventions

MOURN ON MY MOURNING SON
NOW YOU KNOW YOUR DAD DIDN'T WANT YOU TO KNOW HIM
IT AIN'T THE MORNING SUN
IT'S THE LIMELIGHT AND THE EPILOG'S JUST BEGINNING

SHINE ON... CRY ON ... SIGH ON...
SHINE ON BRIGHT MORNING SUN

GOOD MORNING, MORNING SUN
THE STARS ARE GONE AND A NEW DAY STARTS LAUGHING
FIGHT ON MY MOURNING SON
DON'T STOP BLAMING THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD FOR KNOWING NOTHING

SESAME

SAY TO ME - SAY SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL THAT'S SHOWING ME A TRACE OF WISDOM
I'M A SESAME GIVING ACCESS JUST TO THE ONES WHO KNOW AND ONCE I MISSED´EM

NOW SAY TO ME SOMETHING SUITABLE TO TURN THE KEY AND BLOW MY SYSTEM
NO SESAME WILL EVER OPEN IF YOU DON'T EXPECT THE GRAIL OF WISDOM.

NOW SAY TO ME - SAY SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL TO TURN THE KEY AND BLOW MY SYSTEM
I'M A SESAME GIVING ACCESS JUST TO THE ONES WHO KNOW AND ONCE I MISSED´EM

DIDGERIDOO

YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL - I'M SENSITIVE
AND ALL YOU GIVE IS WHAT I GET
HEY, HEY - I'M SPENDING MY DAYS
IN PERFECT GRACE - HOW NICE WE MET.

LOVE'S A DIDGERIDOO
ONE END FOR ME - ONE END FOR YOU

OH, HARMONY'S A MIRACLE
AND CORRODABLE LIKE A CANDY STORE
YOU'RE TRYIN' THE ACADEMICAL WAY
WHEN I HEAR YOU SAY "LOVE'S A CHEMICAL WAR"

I'M ONE OF THE COMPATIBLE GUYS
I'M ALWAYS NICE UNLESS YOU'LL KNOCK ME SAD
WHAT YOU GET AIN'T WHAT YOU WANT
BUT WHAT YOU WANT AIN'T WHAT YOU GET

LOVE'S A DIDGERIDOO
ONE END FOR ME - ONE END FOR YOU

LOVE'S A DIDGERIDOO
IF THERE'S NO END FOR ME, ALL ENDS FOR YOU

AS LONG AS LOVERS SCRATCH THEIR BACKS
AND SWEET ATTACKS TURN TO PRIVATE WARS
AND AS LONG AS LIARS BRIBE THE NEWS
I'M LONGING FOR TRUTH AND LOCK MY DOORS

LIFE'S A DIDGERIDOO
HIGH END FOR ME - LOW END FOR YOU

WHAT'S BEAUTIFUL OR SENSITIVE
IF YOU DON'T GIVE ALL I CAN'T GET
BABY, WE'RE SPENDING OUR NIGHTS
IN PERFECT FIGHTS - HOW NICE WE MET

YOU'LL NEVER CAN AFFORD MY BRANDS
DON'T KNOW THE BANDS I'M LISTENING TO
BUT AS LONG AS MOVIES DRY MY TEARS
AND FIGHT MY FEARS I'LL STAY WITH YOU

LOVE'S A DIDGERIDOO
ONE END FOR ME - ONE END FOR YOU

LOVE'S A DIDGERIDOO
IF THERE'S ONE END FOR ME, THERE'S NO END FOR YOU

LOVE'S A DIDGERIDOO
NOW ALL ENDS FOR YOU.

SALAUD

(ca-ca-ca-ca-y-est, ca-ca-ca-ca-y-est, ca-ca-ca-ca-y-est, ca-ca-ca-ca-y-est)

once upon a time you told me not to be afraid (ca-ca-ca-ca-y-est)
one day someone'll save the lonely so lay down and wait (ca-ca-ca-ca-y-est)

time ain't waiting - ca-y-est, salaud, i'm dying to be a part of your senseless line-up
something's fading - ca-y-est, salaud, it's great to end up sick, falling endlessly

once upon a time you told me not to stay alone (ca-ca-ca-ca-y-est)
one fine day you'll save the patient - can i use your phone? (ca-ca-ca-ca-y-est)

same oasis - ca-y-est salaud, did someone ever drown in your sea of sorrow
spy out dasies - ca-y-est salaud, i'm dying to end up solemnly
time ain't waiting - ca-y-est salaud, who loves to be the frog in an endless desert
something's fading - ca-y-est salaud, who loves to end up flat, frying endlessly

time ain't waiting - ca-y-est salaud, who's sad to be the gap in a useless line-up
time stops fading - ca-y-est salaud, who loves to end up sick, falling endlessly

once upon a time you told me not to be afraid (ca-ca-ca-ca-y-est)
one day someone'll save the lonely if it's not too late (ca-ca-ca-ca-y-est)

time ain't waiting - ca-y-est salaud, i'm dying to be a part of your senseless line-up
something's fading - ca-y-est salaud, it's great to end up sick, falling endlessly

once upon a time you told me not to stay alone (ca-ca-ca-ca-y-est)
one fine day you'll save the patient - can i use your phone? (ca-ca-ca-ca-y-est)

once upon a time you told me not to stay alone
one fine day you'll save the patient - there's no one on the phone

same oasis - ca-y-est salaud, missie lie or missing lows
spy out dasies - ca-y-est salaud, ca-y-est salaud

once upon a time you told me things won't cease to grow
something's fading - ca-y-est salaud, who loves to end up sick, falling endlessly

BELIEVER

DOESN'T LOOK LIKE A DANCER
WHEN YOU'RE MESSING AROUND LIKE CANCER
I OFTEN HEARD YOU SAY QUE SERA
SERA - BUT I KNOW YOU'RE NOT A BELIEVER
THERE'S NO LIL STRING THAT PULLS YOUR HANDS
JUST A TINY LIL STEP TO START THE DANCE
NA ALSO - SIEH' AN, SIEH' DA
ONE SINGLE STEP UND ES WIRD WAHR

DOESN'T SOUND LIKE AN ANSWER
BECAUSE YOU THINK WHAT YOU'RE TELLING ENCHANTS HER
TOO OFTEN HEARD YOU SAY INSH'ALLAH
OH, JA - BUT YOU KNOW THAT I'M NO BELIEVER
IF YOU FORGOT THE BELT, FORGET YOUR PANTS
YOU NEED TO MAKE A MOVE TO START ANOTHER DANCE
NO FURTHER WORD - SIEH' AN, SIEH' DA
ONE SINGLE STEP UND ES WIRD WAHR

YOU DON'T LOOK LIKE A DANCER
WHEN YOU'RE MESSING AROUND LIKE CANCER
I OFTEN HEARD YOU SAY QUE SERA
SERA - BUT I KNOW YOU'RE NOT A BELIEVER
NOT A SINGLE LIL STRING THAT PULLS YOUR HANDS
WE ONLY GOTTA MAKE A MOVE TO START THE DANCE
NA ALSO - SIEH' AN, SIEH' DA
ONE SINGLE STEP UND ES WIRD WAHR

MARSEILLE

did anybody say so - did anybody sigh in a castle
did anybody say "say yo" - isn't everybody trying to impress somebody
if you'll ever lay low - (just) spell her name - lil handsome thief
if you wanna know "say yo" - (why) she's hiding all her goods in a coffin

MARSEILLE - A DREAM'S A WAITER - SERVING ALL SWEETS ALL YOU CAN'T EAT
WHY SAY "SAVE YOU LATER" ? - I SAY HEY, LOVELY SOMEBODY, EYES ON YOU!

did anybody say so - does anybody cry in a castle
did anybody say "say yo" - wasn't anybody laying down the law to you?
did anybody say so - then give it up - it's only policy
never gonna say "say yo" - spelling other words make me muzzy

MARSEILLE - SPACE INVADER - SERVING ALL THE WORLDS ALL YOU CAN'T EAT
WHY SAY "SAVE YOU LATER"? I SAY: OH, LOVELY SOMEBODY I SAW YOU!

did anybody say so - did anybody die in a castle
did anybody say "say yo" - did anybody try to get in touch with you
if you'll ever lay low - hang it up, don't answer me
if you ever wanna know (say yo!) - who's hiding little pills in a muffin

MARSEILLE - DREAM'S A WAITER - SERVING ALL SWEETS ALL YOU CAN'T EAT
WHO SAID - "SAVE YOU LATER" - HEYHEY, LOVELY SOMEBODY: EYES ON YOU!
MARSEILLE (did anybody say so?)
DREAMS AWAY FROM... (did anybody say "say yo"?)
DID ANYBODY SAY "KEEP IT ON, KEEP IT ON"?
WHY SAY (did anybody say so?)
"SAVE YOU LATER" ? (did anybody say "say yo"?)
who's hiding little pills in a muffin: MARSEILLE...

THE BIG FLOW

NO WAY - NO WAITING - if you don't walk in time
NO DAY - NO DATING - should you ever call that my thing

SINA - SEE NOTHING - just put a foot on a moon or a muffin
WENO - WE'RE NOTHING - but a jolly good row

NO WAY - NO WAITING - if you don't walk in time
NO DAY - NO DATING - should you ever call that my thing

SINA - SEE NOTHING - not the diff between a moon and a muffin
WENO - WE'RE NOTHING - but a jolly good row

we're only decent - when we'll walk alone
we'll have a big day - just putting the phrase on - we gotta be decent... so...

SEI NAH - SIGN NOTHING - blue printed papers are not discussing
BEINAH - BUY NOTHING - already bought the alarm
SIEH NAH - SEE NOTHING - not a moon nor a muffin
SAIL ON - SAY NOTHING - we're the break in a big flow

whatever's soaking a day - the planets just don't bother
whatever's making your day - the sun's just 'round the corner
whoever's spoiling a day - one lie does lead to another
whatever's making my day - true, true: no lie no trouble

SEI NAH - SIGN NOTHING - it is sein or resign
BEINAH - BUY NOTHING - have you ever bought the whole thing
SIE NA... - SEE NOTHING - but the space between a moon & a muffin
SAY NO - SAY NOTHING - create another big flow

NO WAY - NO WAITING - anticipating and violating
NO HAY - NO HATING - you're already drawing the bow
SIEH NAH - SEE NOTHING - neither moon nor a muffin
WE'RE NO - WE'RE NOTHING - but a break in a big flow

we're only decent - when we'll walk alone
we'll have a big day - just putting the phrase on - we gotta be decent... so...

SIEH NAH - SEE NOTHING - neither moon nor a muffin
WE'RE NO - WE'RE NOTHING - but a break in a big flow

BON AMI

EVERYBODY'S SONNY BOY AND BON AMI
A GOOD GUY'S GOOD FOR HISTORY
BUT DON'T ASK ME FOR A DEBUTY - HEY, YEAH
I UNDERSTAND IT'S MYSTERY
WHEN YOU EXPLAIN WHAT'S WRONG WITH ECONOMY
(WHILE I'M) LAZIN' ON THE MOON.

THE MOON - TURNS ALL NEWS DOWN LOW
& ALL HEROES THAT RULED MY DAY

THE MOON - HIGH WHEN I STAY LOW
DOESN'T WALKING OUT OF ONE'S SHADOW BRING SOME LIGHT?

THE MOON - ALWAYS CAUGHT MY SOUL
UNLIKE THE WORDS YOU SAID

THE MOON - HIGH WHEN I STAY LOW
NOW WHO'S GONNA MAKE MY DAY?

EVERYBODY'S SONNY BOY AND BON AMI - A GOOD GUY'S GOOD FOR HISTORY
BUT DON'T ASK ME FOR A PENALTY - HEY, YEAH
WHO UNDERSTANDS THE MYSTERY - WHEN YOU EXPLAIN WHAT'S UP WITH REALITY
(WHILE I'M) LAZIN' ON THE MOON.

THE MOON - TURNS ALL WORDS DOWN LOW
& ALL THE HEROES THAT RULED MY DAY

THE MOON - WANTS YOUR HEART TO KNOW
THAT WALKING OUT OF MY SHADOW BRINGS SOME LIGHT

THE MOON - SAFELY CAUGHT MY SOUL
STILL FIGHT THE WORDS YOU SAID

THE MOON - WANTS MY HEART TO KNOW
DON'T YOU WANNA MAKE MY DAY?

THE MOON - BRIGHT IF I'D STAY LOW
THE DARK SIDE'S JUST A SAYING

THE MOON - HIGH WHEN I STAY LOW
TONS OF LIGHTFUL WORDS OBSCURED MY DAY

THE MOON - TURNS ALL LIGHTS DOWN LOW
AND ALL THE WEIGHTS THAT RULED MY DAY
