Melotur One's complete list of lyrics: Mindy Mindy's got the power of mind control Even in the sunlight there's something cold About the way she looks when she sees my soul I know that my mind isn't mine it's under her control When we're out she's always sure to hold my hand So I know she's mine and I'm her only man Lets me feel I'm leading her through unknown lands Even though the path will bend at her command There are times her mind on mine will lose it's sway I start to see but think it best to sit and wait Until my mind can be confined 'cause I'm afraid That if I fully wake I'll find I'm in my grave! I have prayed at night that I might have control Just to keep me calm the day my mind lets go Should it come unhinged from girls or getting old Then I dream of Mindy and her mind control. Another Day Forcing their way into another day Wishing the sun would turn around Wondering when, when is she going to say That the machines don't bring her down? Wondering when she's going to say That the machines are all okay? What could she mean is all they said But what they meant Is that they only know What they know Forcing their way Into another day Into another day alone And still they tried and tried hard to survive out of their city homes They tried to wonder why and wonder what a life would let them own If all the lights were brighter would the cry out in their city homes Knowing where they come from and where they're going Forcing their way Into another day Into another day alone And still they tried and tried Oily Oily Birds Ducks are up above the earth Sailing t'ward the sunshine Wish that I could be a little like them Flapping wings and quacking beaks it really really sounds fine All that I can do is just count time Oily oily birds are staying dry in the worst of weather While the grassy hills are turning cold below their tail feathers Passing trees in perfect vees at heights I'd only dream to climb If I wasn't worried 'bout the decline Puddle ducks and pintails Taking flight they never fail To keep me just pretending that my arms can fly Blackhead ducks are keeping eggs inside of others' cups Those sly goldeneyes use others' wives to raise 'em up Then they step out from the brood as parasites it's understood They'll fly away to find another duck to fuck. Oily oily birds are staying dry in the worst of weather While the grassy hills are turning cold below their tail feathers Passing trees in perfect vees at heights I'd only dream to climb If I wasn't worried 'bout the decline (Apologetic Segue) I'm so sorry that I always Always Left you Weak Drinks Four shallow shots and I'm on the road Looking for love or a big payload And everything's broken down everything's gold Everything's broken down here I couldn't love you Any more than I did I should have loved you So much more than I did Parting out cars that never sold Something changed when the rust took hold But everything's panning out, cut through the bolts Everything's broken down here I couldn't love you Any more than I did I should have loved you So much more than I did Offering thoughts that we think we own Making plans to let it all go But god only knows what they're worth weighed in gold Everything's melting down here Poplar Stump I was sitting By the old poplar tree The old poplar tree I was sitting I was sitting Where the old poplar tree used to be I was thinking About my love About my love I was thinking I was thinking It was big as the blue skies above And when I looked for that tree I used to climb To reach for that love of mine I saw no branches Reaching to the sky My love my love You make me weep You're up above for all to see And be loved so easily She was dancing O'er the grass All o'er the grass She was dancing She was dancing And oh how I wanted that moment to last But I was building A circle of stones Circle of stones For that poplar Oh that poplar To burn it right down to the bone 'Cause I thought if she could have anything she sees If to love is just a breeze I'll never let her roots grab hold of me My love my love You make me weep You're just too goddam free I wanted you for no one else But poor old lonesome me Shame It's a shame it's a shame it's a shame Your mind is as timid as my body Your body drives my mind insane Her Name Her name was all he could think of But he wouldn't want it to show That most of the year he's forgetting Lists of names he's s'posed to know He could watch her in the twilight As she got ready to go The lamp would catch only the high lights Of what she kept hidden below Her name was all he could think of That and an innocent face That seemed to be hiding behind a few years When her innocence must've looked out of place All of their days ran together All of their nights fell apart All of his body could sense her Feeling so close yet so far They parted ways in November Predicting the wind would bring snow They both started writing out letters To others they'd left in the cold
