the egg - i will be absorbed
Half of the time I spend thinking alone
 While I'm working out songs or just lying in the sun
 The magical sound that I long to express
 Always just out of reach of my groping hands
 
 Like the wanton muse
 Beckoning to me
 Vanishes before
 I can see her face
 
 How many times has a transient dawn's
 Beauty faded away before you understand
 And a woman whose smile is a lingering song
 Bringing tears to your eyes though you dont know why
 
 Like a fragrant light
 Moves before your eyes
 A million miles away
 Never to return
 
 Wafting past from my childhood
 Hazy thoughts and sensations
 These must hold the key to my life
 
 I always find those indefinite things
 If I manage to touch them they turn into stone
 And the quality that kept me following them
 Is only a sound that I knew all the time
 
 If I ever find
 What I'm looking for
 I will be absorbed
 And never write again 
 
   the egg - walking away
You've got me dancing and crying
 Rolling and flying
 Love don't let me go
 You've got me drowning in a river
 Cold but in fever
 Love don't let me go
 
 [Honestly]
 [Feeling strange]
 [Get on]
 [And get it wrong]
 
 [Feel right]
 [Come slowly here]
 [We walk alone]
 [If we got it wrong] 
 
   the egg - seven is a jolly good time
I used to play in four time when I was very small
 But recently I've realised the folly of it all
 Supreme thoughts disturbed me, upset my decent mind
 I started writing songs in all the rhythms I could
 find
 Like five...
 
 Seven is a jolly good time, seven is a jolly good time
 It's just a very good sign to play in seven time
 
 I found it hard to follow, my foot became confused
 My facial muscles echoed the rhythms that I used
 And now I found my mental gate playing in a brew
 I gathered all the notes up and jumped 'em through a
 hoop
 As in eleven...
 
 Seven is a jolly good time, seven is a jolly good time
 It's just a very good sign to play in seven time 
 
   the egg - the song of mcgillicudie the pusillanimous
Where should I go? What should I do?
 Now that I know I can't get away from you
 Everyone has something to hide from themselves
 Now it's too late to go back - go right on
 I feel so alone - I feel so alone...
 
 What do I say? Where do I look? Isn't it great? Now...
 Everything's gone
 Black perfectly safe feel quite well
 Why dont you just go to hell?
 Back where you came from... 
 
   the egg - wall
Run around, run around 
 Never looking, never look, I fall 
 Stepping on, stepping on 
 Left in night, aero tights and awe 
 
 Let me go, let me know 
 Well, it?s easy to show 
 That you wanted to go 
 But you won?t let me know 
 And I wanted to go 
 But I wanted to let you know 
 Let me go, let me know 
 Well it?s easy to show 
 That you didn?t even know 
 That I wanted to go 
 But you know that I wanted 
 To let you go your way 
 
 Watching out, looking out 
 Always take me, always take me out 
 Running through, afternoon 
 Far away, I fall around with you 
 
 Let me go, let me know 
 Well, it?s easy to show 
 That you wanted to go 
 But you won?t let me know 
 And I wanted to go 
 But I wanted to let you know 
 Let me go, let me know 
 Well it?s easy to show 
 That you didn?t even know 
 That I wanted to go 
 But you know that I wanted 
 To let you go? (Repeat until fade) 
 
   the egg - you are all princes
My ears smoke, awaiting the word
My eyes, the apparition
Why don't you speak?
Why hold your arms so
for chasing crows down?
Mouth a hole of grief
(First the other/Thirsty of the) ghost of (.....)
Will they come down to me now?
Why don't you speak?
Why hold your arms so
for chasing crows down?
Mouth a hole of grief
Princes
You are all princes
