You Told Me

When I met you girl

You said you loved me

And I believed that you did

But what you told me girl

And what you showed me

Seem like two different things

You got me running

You got me coming

But now you’re running away

Hey, hey

You said you’d never leave me girl

I think you promised me

In fact I know that you did

So what I get to see

Is what you’re really made of

Like you got to with me

You got me running

You got me coming

But now you’re running away

Hey, hey, hey, hey

You said you had to do it girl

Just to prove it

And I can see what you did

But if you told me girl

That you still loved me

Well I’m sure I’d believe that you did

You got me running

You got me coming

But now you’re running away

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Helsinki Airport Blues

Landed in Helsinki International Airport today,  

About half past noon and they lost my luggage on the way.

 Now I’ve got five hours until my next flight, 

And a bar’s the only thing that I see in sight,

 So I guess I’ll drink ‘cause there’s nothing else to do.

A few drinks later I decided I should take a nap,

 In a vacant gate, on some chairs, but my feet and neck felt cramped. 

And when I woke up there wasn’t much to do,

So I went back and had another drink or two. 

Don’t look at me like that, ‘cause you know you’d do the same thing too.

Flying out of Oslo I had to land again,

And spend two whole nights before getting on a plane again.

 It doesn’t matter if you’ve been naughty or nice,

 ‘cause there’s no flights leaving here tonight,

 So it’s back to the bar until it’s time to go to my hotel.

Woke up this morning and I got myself a beer, 

‘cause I’m still in Helsinki after spending a whole night here. 

Since today is Monday, the museum’s closed, 

And by noon my room’s dishonor bar was also closed,  

So I guess I’ll take a ride on the swing on the Rock Church dome.

Got to the airport early on my way to St. Petersburg,  

So I could have some liquid courage to get the nerve to get up in the air. 

I’m heading back to the only bar in sight,  

And I hope while I’m drinking I don’t miss my flight.  

Don’t laugh ‘cause you know it wouldn’t be so funny if it happened to you.

Landed one last time outta Moscow via Petersburg.  

By now the guy working in the bar must think that I live here.  

And it’s not quite as glamorous as the photos seem,

 But as long as there’s drinks, well it’s okay with me.  

I’ll get out of this airport if it’s the last thing I ever do.

Summer Song

Spring is over, hope Autumn never comes

Love the summer, ‘cause we’re just having fun

Hangin’ out there’s nothing else

To do

Laying on the beach without a care today

Nothing better on a summer day

Saving daylight every day

Love that gentle breeze

Blowing through the trees

Won’t be long ’til Summer’s gone

Again

Summer solstice, best day of the year

Every summer shorter, than the one last year

Want to spend every moment of it here

With you

Laying in the tall grass without a care today

Nothing better on a summer day

Chasing daylight before it goes away

Love that gentle breeze

Blowing through the trees

Won’t be long ’til Summer’s gone

Again

When the Sun goes down

We’ll make love all night long

If you wanna stay

Till the break of day

Crusin’ with the top down, wind blowing through my hair

Cranking up the radio, its all that I can hear

Listening to this Summer song

With you

Going to the Drive-In without a care today

Nothing better on a summer day

Saving daylight for another day

Love that gentle breeze

Blowing through the trees

Summer’s almost gone

Again

Rocket Baby

I know a girl named Sophie Magee

She’s the cutest thing you ever did see

She’s got so much energy

If you don’t believe me, just wait and see

She’s a rocket baby, rocket baby, rocket baby

Can’t keep her on the ground

Rock it Baby, Rock it Baby, Rock it Baby

She’ll Rock it all night long

She’s like a hurricane tearing through town

You’ll know danger when you look in her eye

She’s a force of nature that you’ll never stop

Rock it bye Baby, the cradle will ROCK!

She’s a rocket baby, rocket baby, rocket baby

Can’t keep her on the ground

Rock it Baby, Rock it Baby, Rock it Baby

She’ll Rock it all night long

She’s blasting off into outer space

A thrill seeking, dare devil winning this race

She’s finally reached escape velocity

And you’ll never catch her, it’s plain to see

She’s a rocket baby, rocket baby, rocket baby

Can’t keep her on the ground

Rock it Baby, Rock it Baby, Rock it Baby

She’ll Rock it all night long

She’s a rocket baby, rocket baby, rocket baby

Can’t keep her on the ground

Rock it Baby, Rock it Baby, Rock it Baby

She’ll Rock it all night long

Louie & Marie

Louie and Marie were the king and queen of France
Until one day their subjects decided give them the axe
Now they’re both unemployed, just like you and me
And they’re out there collecting welfare in three states near me

Louie and Marie were just penny royalty
and they ain’t worth a dime to you and me
I heard they’re hangin’ on the corner bumming change
So if you see them hangin’ ’round tell them this for me

Louie and Marie finally ran out of luck
No jacks, no jokers, and nothing left to sluff
Even the ace of spades hung them out to dry
Not even deuces wild, it’s time to cry

Louie and Marie were the king and queen of France
Until one day their subjects decided give them the axe
All of the king’s horses and all of the king’s men
Couldn’t put their heads back on them so, I guess this is the end

Music & Lyrics ~ Scott Ferguson

Echo of a Dream

I can’t remember where I was last night

When I awoke, it disappeared in the light

Want to go back to sleep to see how it ends

But it never comes when I lay my head to rest

I can’t believe the things I saw today

While I was asleep, but they don’t stay

Early morning hours aren’t what they seem

I’m living in the echo of a dream

Wish I could remember what I’ve seen

Always seems so real, though I know it’s a dream

Even when I’m dreaming within a dream

I think you know exactly what I mean

I can’t believe the things I saw today

When I was asleep, but they don’t stay

Early morning hours aren’t what they seem

I’m living in the echo of a dream

Later in the day it comes back to me

For a split second it’s clear to see

Before it vanishes in front of me

In the echo of a dream

Resurrect Tomorrow before daylight

Doing what I can to stay asleep all night

Reconstructing dreams the way I want them be

When I wake up, and you’re not there with me

I can’t believe the things I saw today

While I was asleep, but they don’t stay

Early morning hours aren’t what they seem

I’m living in the echo of a dream

Munchausen by proxy

I’ll make you sick so you love me

Munchausen by proxy

You’re not sick ’til you love me

Like I love you

I’m doing it to

Take care of you

I hope one day you’ll see

How much you mean to me

Munchausen by proxy

I’ll make you sick so you love me

Munchausen by proxy

You’re not sick ’til you love me

Like I love you

I’m only doing it to

Take care of you

I hope one day you’ll see

You’re not sick ’til you’re as sick as me

It might appear that you’re the one who’s sick

But you’re not as sick as who’s making you sick

I say there’s nothing I won’t do for you

But it’s what I won’t do to you

Munchausen by proxy

I’ll make you sick so you love me

Munchausen by proxy

You’re not sick ’til you love me

Like I love you

I’m only doing it to

Take care of you

I love you so much it’s true

There’s nothing that I won’t do to you

Mallus Maleficarum

A pretty lady visits in your dreams

With sights and sounds that you’ve never seen

If you’ve fallen under her spell

You’ll never escape this living hell

The Hammer of Witches falls on you
When it does, you won’t know what to do
You can run, but you can’t hide
The Hammer of Witches comes crashing down on you

A thousand images which seem like dreams
Swim through your mind, but you can’t see
The real evil lurking beneath
The lies she tells and promises to keep

The Hammer of Witches falls on you
When it does, you won’t know what to do
You can run, but you can’t hide
The Hammer of Witches comes crashing down on you

The evil in your heart unfolds
Like the petals of a funeral rose
The 13th witch, she’s the key
The doorway to eternity

The Hammer of Witches lays it’s mark on you
Now that it has, you don’t know what to do
You can run, but you’ll never hide
Mallus Maleficarum will find you and you’ll die

Behold the witching hour finally at hand
The devil’s bride, she takes your hand
The funeral pyer burning higher and higher
Flames lick the sky with a kiss of desire

The Hammer of Witches falls on you
When it does, you won’t know what to do
You can run, but you can’t hide
When the Hammer of Witches comes crashing down on you

Regeneration

A single note sustained starts a regeneration

Like a poisonous thought in the mind of a nation

Spreading like disease in a terminal patient

Til there’s nothing left for the next generation

There’s only one planet it’s clear,

And no escaping from here

The time has finally come

To live with what we’ve all done

Look deep inside of you, it’s all you really have to do

Admit what you feel, you know that it’s real

And all that you know is true, about the real you

If you don’t then your punishment is being you

There’s only one planet it’s clear,

And no escaping from here

The time has finally come

To come together as one

A single note sustained starts a regeneration

The only way to save the earth from annihilation

They’re filling up the land with fill, til there’s no more land to fill

Time will go on, long after man is gone

There’s only one planet it’s clear,

And no escaping from here

The time has finally come

To come together as one
