UNIVERSAL SOUND OF THE WORLD (YOUR KISS IS SWEET)

Sometimes it's hard to make you see
What you have planned to make might be
But I will stop to hear you now
And tell you I'm glad you're my friend
I'm thanking you for the song in the sky
Thanking you for the moon and light
I want to thank you every day
For the universal sound of the world

When I am down and out wearing a frown
You spirit lifts me up like a crown
I wonder who else in the world
Is feeling like I'm feeling now
Thank you for natures helping hand
Thank you for letting us use your land
I want to thank you every day
For the universal sound of the world oh yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah...

You are my friend
Thank you for natures helping hand
Thank you for letting us use your land
I want to thank you every day
For the universal sound of the world
The universal sound of the world...

Your kisses are sweet as candy...


UPSET STOMACH

Morning side
System's gone from me
After love debris's still with me
Not doin' all right

Apetite
I can't even think
No sign of relief is...
Not doin' all right

*'Cause I've got an upset stomach
From a broken heart
A tear stained pillow
From my crying eyes
A migraine headache
That just won't go away
Yes I've got an upset stomach
From a broken heart
A tear stained pillow
From my cryin' eyes
A migraine headache
That just won't go away
Because I think our love has fallen apart

Sunny skies
Are cloudy to me
Black sad as can be confusing
We're not doin' all right

Happy smile
Has turned in reverse
Before work I must rehearse you
Not doin' all right

(* Repeat)

** It's really hard
You said go away

(* * Repeat five times)

Be free
Free me
Alone
Leave me free me
Leave me alone
Won't you leave me alone

I'm a soul
Of the broken kind
All feelings so fine have left me
Not doin' all right

Only love
Of the healing kind
And what's down time can help me
Back up to doin' all right

(* Repeat)
It's fallen apart
Our love has fallen apart

(* Repeat)

(Ad lib and fade)


USED TO BE

Superman was killed in Dallas
There's no love left in the palace
Someone took the Beatles' lead guitar

Have another Chivas Regal
You're twelve years old and sex is legal
Your parents don't know where
or who you are

Used to be the hero of the ball game
Took the time to shake the loser's hand
Used to be that failure only meant you
didn't try
In a world where people gave a damn

Great big wars in little places
Look at all those frightened faces
But don't come here
We just don't have the room

Love thy neighbor's wife and daughter
Cleanse your life with holy water
We don't need to bathe,
we've got perfume

Used to be a knight in shining armor
Didn't have to own a shiny car
Dignity and courage were the measure of a man
Not the drugs he needs to hide the scar

Can you teacher read
Does your preacher pray
Does your president have soul
Have you heard a real good ethnic joke today

Mama took her speed
Daddy ran away
But you mustn't lose control
Let's cut a class, I got some grass
The kids are wild we just can't tame'em
Do we have the right to blame'em

We fed'em all our indecision
Raped their minds with television
But what the hell, they're too young to
feel pain

I believe that love can save tommorrow
I believe the truth can make us free
Someone tried to say it
And we nailed him to a cross
I guess it's still the way
It used to be
