Lyrics

Desmond Simmons

Alone on Penguin Island

A Castle From Hawaii

On my raft
Keeping you here on my raft

A caste from Hawaii Hawaii

It's not a question of explanation
Rather more the need to expand
You must realise, to balance the equation
Your removal is already planned

No sermon can alter my feelings
Under movement I guide my craft
We believe in, the needing
Keeping you here

To Be Lost

No questions, no answer, no game
I delight in watching you struggle
To be lost is not allowed

In this city you're not the only traveller
In this city you're not the only traveller

No questions, no answers, no game
I delight in watching you struggle
To be lost is not allowed
And I'm sure you knew

April Waits

No device too slow that cannot conceal
Restrain or impulse, irritation adjoining
Opposed in compression, aligned and in series
Calm and contained, meshed and unmoving

[?] to device, [?]
Import or restrain, adjoining, compression, [?]
Contained and control, [?]
The way is [?]
The way is [?]
The way is [?]
The way is, the way, the way
On your shoulders
On your shoulders
The way
The way

The Gymnast

I am the gymnast, I want to swing on your door
I am the gymnast, I want to hear you shout for more
I am the gymnast, I want to be a millionaire
I am the gymnast, I want to be a millionaire

I am the gymnast
I am the gymnast
I am the gymnast
I am the gymnast

They Fly Information

Man The Lifeboats

Look out below!
'Cause in a [?]
Watch out for the line!
Man the lifeboats!

Phone Ringing

Phone ringing in a midnight house
Phone ringing but they've all gone out
Phone ringing, who can it be?
Phone ringing, but never for me

Phone ringing and I feel so...

Phone ringing and I'm all alone
Phone ringing, come on home
Phone ringing, it won't go away
Phone ringing again and again

Phone ringing and I feel so...

Counterpane

You must never go out if there's a chance of falling
You must never go out if there's a chance at all
You must stay in bed and count your toes
Hide your head under the bedclothes
Hush away and hope the world will notice you

You must never go out
You must never go out

By Air Or By Sea

There seems to be some kind of commotion
Crossing the lakes and crossing the ocean
But they never bothered me
There's nowhere that I want to be
It's never bothered me
By air or by sea

Pathenon

Carry a torch to the fire's edge
Collect your halos of ashes and wood
Pay your disgrace
To be found so far
Parthenon
Parthenon

Gaining in reverence
No [?] other source
Only the perfect will remain
