Hangin' With Enya

My move, your move, I have nothing to prove
I'm the first to play on your seventeenth century chessboard
Why talk, don't talk, let's just let our eyes walk
I am not afraid coz I think you understand that less is more
My king, your queen, I think I know what that means
I know by the look in your eye you're getting ready to break me
I know, go slow, sipping on your Bordeaux
I hope I can empty my mind without you having to hate me
Yeah I'm hangin' with Enya
But nothing's going to happen
I think we are friends now
But nothing's going to happen
For all I know I am the luckiest guy in the world
Hangin' with Enya
Intense romance, there is no remote chance
But I can talk for a while without resorting to irony
I know you know I'm putting on a dumbshow
I know if I just be myself then you would quickly grow tired of me
You smile, so kind, blow the candle, make you blind
I have just discovered an old-fashioned way to amuse you
Sometimes I find living out of real time
Sorry I will stop now, I don't really want to confuse you
See I'm hangin' with Enya
But nothing's going to happen
I think we are friends now
But nothing's going to happen
For all I know I am the luckiest guy in the world
Hangin' with Enya
Hangin' with Enya
Hangin' with Enya
Hangin' with Enya
But nothing's going to happen
I think we are friends now
But nothing's going to happen
For all I know I am the luckiest guy in the world
Hangin' with Enya
Hangin' with Enya

Afraid of Flies
03:55

Let's try to tip the sky
Let's try to jump so high you tip the sky
Hey look it's a bumblebee
Let's follow him down to the apple tree
You and me
But suddenly you want to go inside
You said to me that you're afraid of flies
Is that ladybird alive, still alive?
Maybe it's only closed its eyes
Hey look it's a butterfly
Let's follow him up to the deep blue sky
You and I
But suddenly you want to go inside
You said to me that you're afraid of flies
I have to say you really make me smile
You'll want to go outside again in a little while
The ladybird is dead
What is going through your head
You don't care

Dead People

Dead people
Dead people
Dead people are so easy to love
Dead people are adored by everyone
Dead people
I have such lovely things to say about dead people
They're no longer in the way
I am bereaved by a man who meant nothing to me
I just can't believe that's he's gone
He wrote so many books that I have never read
But I know that he was wonderful because now he's gone
He is one of those dead people
Dead people are so easy to love
Dead people, they are just so wonderful
I cannot stand that younger living man
Tell me what could he possibly know about life
I'm pretty sure he has nothing much to say
Unlike that dead comedian I always quote
Coz he is great, coz he is one of the dead people
Dead people are good people
They're good people
Dead people

I don't know if I am happy
I don't know if I am sad
The world is far too confusing
I think it drives me mad
I don't know if I'm in love with you but I don't care
All I know is I want to be with you over there
I don't know if I'm angry
I don't know if I'm calm
The world is far too confusing
As if you give a damn
I don't know if I'm in love with you but I don't care
All I know is I want to be with you over there
I don't know if I'm stupid
I don't know if I'm smart
The world is far too confusing
But I know you broke my heart
I don't know if I'm in love with you but I don't care
All I know is I want to be with you over there

Ms. J. Walker
03:52

She already knows that she should not be running
Always has a melody stuck in her head
Always has a terrible joke about something
Don't you worry, I'll find it funny
She has a got a way with being stylish and clumsy
She has a chaotic voice in her head
I wonder does she realise how she is lovely
If I met her, I'd want to tell her
Out on the town, you think that you spot her
How it gets you down, when it turns out to be not her
Ms. J. Walker
She just gave a gentleman a dose of venom
But I see a gentleness in how she smiles
This godforsaken movie starts at half-seven
She'll be despairing, grinning, and bearing
Out on the town, you think that you spot her
How it gets you down when it turns out to be not her
Ms. J. Walker
Out on the town, you think that you spot her
How it gets you down when it turns out to be not her
Can she be found if you never lost her
Ms. J. Walker

Snowing

I don't care if I am freezing
I just love to be at home
Father says the snow might be sticking
Mother says her feet are cold as stones
Come on, keep snowing
Come on, keep snowing
Or else I will be going to school
I wake up early the next morning
I take a nervous look outside
A perfect white blanket is adorning
Every single thing before my eyes
It's snowing
It's snowing
I won't be going to school
It's snowing
It's snowing
I won't be going to school
It's snowing
It's snowing
I won't be going to school
