Track Name: Seraphim
the air up there
so high so high
near the sun, the sun

I saw the universe collapse
from my room in Mission Hill
what once was small now vast
we were dosing then at will

the air up there
so high so high
near the sun, the sun

I normally wouldn't live like this
should seraphim walk into my life
I'd certainly want them to hold me
and lift me up with their wings singing

Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy

I want to talk about my life
and acknowledge what is wrong
will you give my fears the knife
and we'll wander 'bout in song

I want you in my life
and I want this ecstasy

the air up there
so high so high
near the sun, the sun

I normally wouldn't live like this
should seraphim walk into my life
I'd certainly want them to hold me
and lift me up with their wings singing

Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy
Track Name: Katsirouba (Billy Ruane Doing the Two-Step)
a little too tall do you hustle alot?
this guy is calling
you finished your sentence but you don't care to stop
here's a man who's watching
he comes complete with lodging
well, he wanna come soon
yeah he don't wanna waste your time

a little too tall finally found what they've sought
I saw you on the TV
a film for the twenty set the terrible lot
you're a man about the city
her an ocean of liberty

a little too tall do you hustle alot?
won't you sing another number?
out of the twenty set you are the top
the mayor of the city
a king who rose from poverty
but you threw it all away
and to my dismay

couldn't manage a till
couldn't handle the bills
so he starts working nights
park square I had to had to die to leave
I know you'll be fine
but I don't want to work it anymore

cuz I've got Billy Ruane doing the two-step.
I sat on his car (scooter) kissing my good friend June.
