“The words in this song come from a myth that I was taught as a child. And the muse goes simply like this: When you die, you don't go to heaven. Right away that is. You go to a screening. A screening of your life, and everyone in heaven is there to watch with you. Sounds alright so far, right? Well here is the rub: They only show the bad things you did on planet earth...hence the line...the gates of heaven open and there is me...on the silverscreen. I hope they did good editing!”
-Jesca Hoop
stolen crown
pillow down
all tangled in my hair
evening gown
the lights downtown
all dangle in the air
gates of heaven open
there is me
on the silverscreen
i hope they did good editing
bell and beau
buck and doe
a love of tender age
jill and joe
dosy do
a tragedy on stage
gates of heaven open
there is me
on the silverscreen
i hope they did good editing
bye bye baby bye bye
hello to my beautiful mind
bye bye
crystal ball
padded walls
a bright blue t.v. glare
a moth to light is as lost as i'm found
far down cellar stair
gates of heaven open
there is me
on the silverscreen
i hope they did good editing
bye bye baby bye bye
red ribbon on witch we ride
carry us over horizon as the sun setting
night puts on a phantom cloak
sing violet light and emote
the protection that violet evokes
fasten your focus on your sole cause
is your fruit and flowers on red ribbon
swift justice comes delivery white bone demon
ohhhh ohhhh begun the havoc in heaven
ohhhh ohhhh begun the havoc in heaven
deep deep in the green sea
there is a weapon for me
a pin that is fixing the sea
a pillar of gold shiny and if i can pull it free
the cudgel is coming with me
fasten heave ho
pillar of gold
runs through the deepest darkest stone
cudgel undone weighing one ton
bring on your force white bone demon
ohhhh ohhhh begun the havoc in heaven
ohhhh ohhhh begun the havoc in heaven
don't believe your eyes
when the maiden does arrive
you fool she is the enemy
and do not trust the guise of a woman old and wise
for truly she is the white bone demon
dance macaques (monkey's) round the fire
warrior drum
banshee cryer
call to them visions of her pyer
fuelled by the demons throne
we shall subdue her to bone
and ashes to ashes her home
fasten your focus on your soul
cause is your fruit and flowers home
and in one blow
i smite down my foe
and ashes to ashes welcome home
ohhhh ohhhh begun the havoc in heaven
ohhhh ohhhh begun the havoc in heaven
ohhhh ohhhh begun the havoc in heaven
ohhhh ohhhh...
once my love stood still like a stagnant well for so
long - you could hear the song of spiders - strumming
fibers - calling her to the web - my river sits in
ebb - the little ones lean over - laughter echoes -
bounce down the dark until it hits the
floor - singin come on baby come on child - call
your flo - like a seed of wonder - faith of mustard -
o yeah wo yeah. all is dark - all of the light is
vanished it is gone - like something large - hovering
high has covered up the sun - and something
quiets the silken ringing - something breaks the
strum...a wish has finally come.
ah oh ah no ah - all i want is to be writing
to be writing - all i want is to be writing and
it goes something like...once that wish did
land - like a star in my hand - it burned and
it burned and it burrowed in - soar through
the source searching - hammer and ping -
and tapped my virgin spring - and prime the
vein with milk of mother - and wet my river
bed - pearls strung up on silk thread - the
starry one - beams his light - he's working
under - diggin through the dark gatherin
particles - findin everything you ever wished
for in your soul like a seed of wonder faith
of mustard. oh no ah no ahhhno - finally
that tapped spring come runnin like a river
my song it came - ahh eeeyeah ohoo noooay -
right away i went writin i went writin - right
away I was hummin I was hummin - right away I
was singin I was singin - right away i
was lovin - and goes something like...light...
i haven't always been under such a blue -
only you - have seen such stormin in my life.

I made up my mind I'm leavin this town
I'm leavin this town
You won't find me look around
After twenty years of carvin my name in the wet cement
Hand your head down and lament
You won't find me look around.
Baby boy, baby boy don't follow me.
I'm a seed, I'm a seed, I'm a seed from a dandelion wish
With intent to be big fish
In the sea in the sea in the sea
Baby boy, baby boy set me free
Don't sabatoge don't hide away my key.
I'm a lark inside a cage
And the world is but a stage
For to sing for to sing for to sing.

The come and they go-my woes and my joy-I know getting attached to that temporal toil is...is...is...is ignorant they ebb and they flo-my frowns and my smiles-I know getting attached to that miracle mile is...is...is...is ignorant state of bliss-tell me are you happiness-somethings gone terrible wrong if you are the other than this-turn out the sun-all of your golden days are gone-I'm going higher one day is your favorite song. Observe and then note-the flux in your power-your efficience in spinnin your hour to hour is...is...is significant. Deserve and then don't your bouquet of flowers-the universal candy is bitter-sweet-salty-and sour get ...get...get...get used to it! state of bliss-tell me are you happiness-somethings gone terribly wrong if you are other than this. Go get your gun-no need in leavin the safety on-there's a world better than this one is your favorite song. They come-sure as they go-yeah they come-sure as they go. Lifewithinalife-ahhhh-has ended and begun-yeahh-again my tune is sung-oh yeah-we sail into the sun-light and brightest night-dark and dismal day-has ended and begun-in out and in of one-we sail into the sun.
you got to keep them fix-it men fed you get
you got to keep them buttered and breaded
you got to keep them sweet
sweet things said
no love at the door they won't come no more.
my oh my
my pipes is dry
what I'm gonna do with dry pipes
forlorn it's early morn
what i'm gonna do with dry pipes
i call my man but he won't stand
cause all i paid him was a bag of sand
now baby what I'm gonna do with dry pipes
oh boy
now what i'm gonna do with dry pipes
you got to keep them fix-it men fed you get
you got to keep them buttered and breaded
you got to keep them sweet
sweet things said
no love at the door they won't come no more.
no fun my car won't run
what about the car that won't run
work work gotta get to work
what about the car that won't run
I call my man but he won't stand
cause all i paid him was to shake my hand
now baby what about the car that won't run
now what about the car that won't run.
you got to keep them fix-it men fed you get
you got to keep them buttered and breaded
you got to keep them sweet
sweet things said
no love at the door they won't come no more.
Ush da doo doot...
roof roof got a leaky roof
what i'm gonna do 'bout that roof
drip drop the rain won't stop
what i'm gonna do 'bout that roof
I call my man but he won't stand
cause nothin's sizzlin in the frying pan
frying pan
you got to keep them fix it men fed better get it
got to keep them buttered and breaded
you got to keep them sweet
sweet things said
no love at the door they won't come no more
no love at the door they won't come no more
no love at the door they won't come no more.
