Her knee caps were scruffy and tattered her dress
But she was too busy to notice the rest
To notice the dirt that clung to here soul
Like a monkey on a music box - no brains or control
She's fetching a cold now 'cause they won't take her in
And the heart that she mended is tearing again
Tearing apart like a web in the wind
And she's like to let you know of it, but where to begin?
And if her deep demons you can't exorcise
Young child be wise and penny your eyes
Well the tale that she fashions is frightful and dark
But the bite of her living is worse than her bark
It's wonder and worry and sleep in between
And if it all works out right you might come out clean
And if her deep demons you can't exorcise
Young child be wise and penny your eyes
Well she made you an offer you just can't refuse
Some bread for your coffer and wine you could use
She won't preach salvation or redemption from sin
Just look in here weary eyes to know where she's been
And if her deep demons you can't exorcise
Young child be wise and penny your eyes
And if your deep demons you can't exorcise
Young child be wise and penny your eyes

Killing the Mime
https://tommyvonmusic.bandcamp.com/track/killing-the-mime
You awake and lime green laughter sips you
Children take the advice they often give you
Stand in place for medications we will issue
I was downing a coffee in an old town cafe
There was nothing to give me a sign of the time of the day
When the waiter said "look here - you'll have to settle the bill"
And his shadow as he spoke to me crept down the street
I said "well this must be Compton or a place as equally cold"
Then a scene from Dante began to unfold
Hot hot - you better call out the ice man
Cool down baby - we are we are we are we are American
Can't you feel it down in your soul?
Nursery rhymes and delicate crimes
Form a line - we're killing the mime
Well, did you think that the pinnacle of your success
Would lead you to places of wonder?
And who did you figure would clean up this mess
After you were six feet under?
Well mister McKinney down in his shop is
Shaking his head for your soul
And he wouldn't give a Guinea to be in your shoes
And suffer your loss of control
As you slip out of the fold
As you slip out of control
Out of control
You awake and lime green laughter sips you
Children take the advice they often give you
Stand in place for medications we will issue
I was downing a coffee in an old town cafe
There was nothing to give me a sign of the time of the day
When the waiter said "look here - you'll have to settle the bill"
And his shadow as he spoke to me crept down the street
I said "well this must be Compton or a place as equally cold"
Then a scene from Dante began to unfold
Hot hot - you better call out the ice man
Cool down baby - we are we are we are we are American
Can't you feel it down in your soul?
Nursery rhymes and delicate crimes
Form a line - we're killing the mime
Well, did you think that the pinnacle of your success
Would lead you to places of wonder?
And who did you figure would clean up this mess
After you were six feet under?
Well mister McKinney down in his shop is
Shaking his head for your soul
And he wouldn't give a Guinea to be in your shoes
And suffer your loss of control
As you slip out of the fold
As you slip out of control
Out of control

Cosmic Sunrise (LP version)
http://tommyvon.bandcamp.com/track/cosmic-sunrise-lp-version
There are thirteen signs to go by
Thirteen signs to know by
When the sun begins to rise in the dark rift
Be aware you serpent bearer
Beware the constant starer
When the sun begins to rise in the dark rift
In the dark rift, in the dark rift
When the sun begins to rise in the dark rift
History’s illusion, the masters cause confusion
When the sun begins to rise in the dark rift
13 thousand heart aches, the time at which the clock breaks
When the sun begins to rise in the dark rift
In the dark rift, in the dark rift
When the sun begins to rise in the dark rift
That’s why I’m so Sirius - the dog star
Super heavy Sirius B
That’s why I’m so Sirius - the dog star
Super heavy Sirius B
That’s why I’m so, That’s why I’m so
That’s why I’m so Sirius - the dog star
Super heavy Sirius B
When the sun begins to rise
When the sun begins to rise in the dark
When the sun begins to rise in the dark rift
That’s why I’m so Sirius
There are thirteen signs to go by
Thirteen signs to know by
When the sun begins to rise in the dark rift
Be aware you serpent bearer
Beware the constant starer
When the sun begins to rise in the dark rift
In the dark rift, in the dark rift
When the sun begins to rise in the dark rift
History’s illusion, the masters cause confusion
When the sun begins to rise in the dark rift
13 thousand heart aches, the time at which the clock breaks
When the sun begins to rise in the dark rift
In the dark rift, in the dark rift
When the sun begins to rise in the dark rift
That’s why I’m so Sirius - the dog star
Super heavy Sirius B
That’s why I’m so Sirius - the dog star
Super heavy Sirius B
That’s why I’m so, That’s why I’m so
That’s why I’m so Sirius - the dog star
Super heavy Sirius B
When the sun begins to rise
When the sun begins to rise in the dark
When the sun begins to rise in the dark rift
That’s why I’m so Sirius
