You
You wouldn’t like me when I’m angry.
You
You wouldn’t like me when I lose my head.
I found myself a home and they tore everything apart.
Now they
they won’t like it when I’m mad.
You
You wouldn’t like me when I’m angry.
You
You wouldn’t like me when I get upset.
It’s not easy being hunted, chased around, no peace of mind.
It puts me
in the mood to bash and smash.
Poor, poor brute; poor gentle giant.
No one really understands .
Poor, poor brute; poor gentle giant.
They will never understand.
It’s not easy being hunted, chased around, no peace of mind.
It puts me
in the mood to bash and smash.
Poor, poor brute; poor gentle giant.
No one really understands.
Poor, poor brute; poor gentle giant.
They will never understand.

I think reality got outta control,
‘cause creepy scissormen are out on the hall
and Red Jack walked in through the kitchen wall!
Somebody better call the Doom Patrol!
You ain’t seen anything like this before!
You can’t buy thrills like these on any store!
Paris is gone, a painting ate it whole!
Somebody better call the Doom Patrol!
The Dada Brothers want to end it all!
The Decreator ate the China Wall!
Danny The Street has grown a shopping mall!
Somebody better call the Doom Patrol!
When you don’t really know what’s going on,
but everything feels really strange and wrong.
When sanity begins to crumble and fall.
Somebody better call the Doom Patrol!

God is on holiday.
He never even said goodbye;
just took the money and ran
and didn’t even bother to close the door.
God is on holiday.
So Jesse what’s it gonna be?
Go out and find him
‘cause the End is near, and I know:
It’s no fun to be at war with Heaven.
It’s no fun to be at war with Hell.
God is on holiday
and the angels are a bunch of bureaucrats.
Hell’s gone loose on Earth
and nobody gives a shit.
God is on holiday.
So Jesse what’s it gonna be?
Go out and find him
‘cause the End is near, and I know:
It’s no fun to be at war with Heaven.
It’s no fun to be at war with Hell.
Oh, Jesse, take your wretched army
and do what you must do to find him,
‘cause he’s got some explaining to do.

Newcastle, 1978!
03:47

There’s so much more in Heaven, so much more
than you will ever dream of, darling John.
I want the life I had, I had before.
Before Newcastle in ’78, before the Casanova Club.
But it is how it is and I am what I am.
There’s so much more in Heaven, so much more
than you will ever dream of, darling John.
I’ve faced my demons at the heart of never.
They’re out to get me but I’m bloody clever.
But it is how it is and I am what I am.
There’s so much more in Heaven, so much more
than you will ever dream of, darling John.
There’s so much more in Heaven, and then in Hell...
And I wish I was a decent chap,
but I’m worse off now than I was then.
And I wish I didn’t have to lie so much,
to keep the sky from falling down.
There’s so much more in Heaven,
than we will ever get to dream.
There’s so much more in Earth and Hell
and nothing’s ever ended well for me.

The anatomy lesson!
04:26
|

Am I animal, or am I vegetable?
What I am you wouldn’t understand.
Am I somebody, or am I something?
What I am you wouldn’t understand.
But, Abby, you’re redemption.
I’d go to Hell and back for you.
Forget about the past: we’ll start again.
Am I good enough? Do I feel enough?
What I am you wouldn’t understand.
And am I strong enough to protect it all?
What I am you wouldn’t understand.
But, Abby, you’re redemption.
I’d go to Hell and back for you.
Forget about the past: we’ll start again.
I’m the Big Green. I am everything.
What I am you wouldn’t understand.
Underneath the world; across the Universe.
What I am you wouldn’t understand.
But, Abby, you’re redemption.
I’d go to Hell and back for you.
Forget about the past: we’ll start again.

Into Shamballa!

The Eye sees all;
the other side calls
—the other side of everything.
I’ve been to the dark,
to the darkest dark
—the other side of everything.
Of everything you know
and everything you’ll never know.
I have lived and I
I have died.
I’ve seen what lies beyond
space and time.
And I am Sorcerer Supreme.
I am guardian of everything.
Of everything you know
and everything you’ll never know.
What I’ve seen could make a man
go insane.
I’ve been lost and found in the
Astral Plane.
And I am Sorcerer Supreme.
I am guardian of everything.
Of everything you know
and everything you’ll never know.

A dream of flying!
04:06

It’s not easy being God: everything moves rather slowly.
It’s not easy being God: you get very, very lonely.
I miss the earth so much, I miss my wife.
Just like the song.
It is lonely here in space
and it’s not easy being God.
It’s not easy being God: seeing everything there is to see.
It’s not easy being God. It’s not easy being free.
I miss the earth so much, I miss my wife.
Just like the song.
It is lonely here in space
and it’s not easy being God.
But I’m just you, tomorrow
and you’re just me, before.
And it’s a matter of time,
before you’re just as bored.
It’s not easy being God: I killed my father and my brother.
Guess I never had a choice: we couldn’t live with one another.
I think it’s gonna be a long, long time
‘til touchdown brings me ‘round again to find
I’m not the man they think I am at home,
I’m no Miracle.
I’m just you, tomorrow.
You’re just me, before.
And it’s a matter of time,
before you’re just as bored.

I never chose to be different
and I’ve been doing my best,
but life could be so much easier
if I were just Clark.
I never wanted to save the world;
I only needed a home.
And I guess I would be happier
if I were just Clark.
And I don’t want to be
anything but me:
a simple family man.
Just my wife and me
and no more enemies.
No more flying around.
Sometimes I think I’ve just had enough,
maybe more than enough.
I never wanted to be like this
so, please, call me Clark.
And I don’t want to be
anything but me:
a simple family man.
Just my wife and me
and no more enemies.
No more flying around.
I’m not a bird and I’m not a plane.
I’m not a God amongst men.
I never wanted any glory or fame
so, please, call me Clark.
Please, call me Clark.

I used to know
the difference between him and me,
but I lost track too long ago.
I’m a lost cause
and that’s the way it ought to be.
I am broken beyond repair.
Am I him, or is he me?
Well, who can tell.
I just go on.
I must go on, I have no choice.
This is the only life I know.
I can’t forget
and sure as Hell I don’t forgive.
I’m lost and broken beyond repair.
Am I him, or is he me?
Well, who can tell.
But I don’t think much about it
and I don’t regret a thing.
No, I don’t think much about it.
A rat with wings is such a funny thing.
But I don’t think much about it
and I don’t regret a thing.
No, I don’t think much about it.
A rat with wings is such a funny thing.

The Uncanny X-Men!
03:46
|
|||
Wolverine is like a fighting machine
and Kitty Pryde can phase through almost anything.
Almost anything.
Cyclops is leader and he fits the part
and Doc McCoy could tear your limbs apart,
but he’d rather talk it out,
‘cause he’s a furry genius.
They’re the Uncanny X-Men.
Don’t you wish you were like them?
They’re the Uncanny X-Men.
I wish I was like them.
Nightcrawler is the funny one:
now you see him, now you don’t,
‘cause he can teleport.
Storm is a godess and Colossus is strong.
Jean Grey is good but, when her dark side calls
she could destroy it all,
if she can’t tame the Phoenix Force.
They’re the Uncanny X-Men.
Don’t you wish you were like them?
They’re the Uncanny X-Men.
I wish I was like them.
Charles and Erik were once best friends.
They’re not so different, but in the end
they’ve chosen different ways...
