Lyrics from Rock, Paper, Scissors, Dynamite The Welfare Of Your Enemy What of the ones the madness touched? I could not touch them all what of the desperate indian? he makes a monkey for us all and if her dreams are full of signs and passions underneath yet those dreams sustain the welfare of your enemy Bring me a list of who has strayed and say how much they knew bring the head of a general and tell me it wasn't you bring this day our daily bread we might believe it's true yet in your deeds sustain the welfare of your enemy how many times has it all gone over the deep end out of step out of time and out of reasons... words and music by D. Schramm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Cycle Of Days Thrill to the unforseen lances of fortune laugh when I tell you in so many words cry as you see me fading behind you look to the earth and the wide silver sky the cycle of days like the games a child plays dawn flavored wishes your starlight is sunlight the lamplight grows fainter your fuel will run low noon harsh light colors the daylight so forceful the graves that you dig are the fields that you sow the cycle of days like the games a child plays words by Tony Rubin, music by D. Schramm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ How Many Lives How many lives in future falter, On their way a sorrow's blow? How many rode a heavenly rhythm Straight and true, as the angels do? What kind of words do they use to find it? What's the worry of a simple man? Who put the sign in the book of angels? Is that you - who they're singing to? words and music by D. Schramm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Talking to me Poor I've heard about your wild life and the drinking you have done. I've heard about your women and the parties you crawled from. you've no memory of the times we had so you're talking to me poor just shut your eyes - I'll say no more You think you understand yourself all your laughter and your lies you think that all you need is wealth you won't have to compromise but you'll find when it's all yours you'll be talking to me poor just shut your eyes - I'll say no more In the dark of the night you'll be on your own With the setting of the sun in the great unknown If your greatest wish, to be left alone... You're looking back through all those years back at everything you've done you've turned to face the growing dusk but you're blinded by the sun you could be sitting here in splendor but you're talking to me poor just shut your eyes - I'll say no more words by Tony Rubin and D. Schramm, music by D. Schramm "If I remember correctly, Tony and I wrote this one back in 1972 or so. In our youth."...Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Her Darkness We set ourselves against the wind a line into the sea Secretly they're gathering with silence in their soul There's silence in their soul it's there to see. A motion turned the company, commotion turned their heads and fit a vision with what they see to meet the road head on To meet the road head on the soul to see, It's a wonder. Say all you want to be free You will end up in between. The season of the rain has come - it washes over me In the sky above the sea the stars are all the same Yeah, the stars are all the same for you and me. A minor in a passion play, a soldier in her scene She wonders who her father is, he's fallen on his knees yeah, he's fallen on his knees, a stranger still, is her father. Say all you want to be free You will wind up in between. We set ourselves against the wind a line into the sea Secretly they're gathering with silence in their soul There's silence in their soul - it's there to see. The season of the rain has come - it washes over me. In the sky above the sea her darkness ain't the same No, her darkness ain't the same as yours and mine, it's much wider. words and music by D.
