Lyrics

Night Nurse

(Gregory Isaacs)

Tell try best just to make it quick,

tend to the sick.

'Cause there must be something he can do;

This heart is broken in two.

Tell it's a case of emergency,

There's a patient by the name of .

Night nurse,

Only you alone can quench this here thirst.

My night nurse,

Oh, the pain is getting worse.

I don't wanna see no doc;

I need attendance from my nurse around the clock,

'Cause there's no prescription for me.

he's the one, the only remedy.

Night nurse,

Only you alone can quench this here thirst.

My night nurse,

Oh, the pain is getting worse.

Ah, ah, ah.

I don't wanna see no doc;

I need attendance from my nurse around the clock,

'Cause there's no prescription for me.

he's the one, the only remedy.

Night nurse,

Only you alone can quench this here thirst.

My night nurse,

Oh, the pain is getting worse.

Night nurse.

Mind Games

(John Lennon)

We're playing those mind games together,

Pushing the barriers, planting seeds,

Playing the mi-i-i-ind guerrilla,

Chanting the mantra, "peace on earth."

We all been playing those mind games forever,

Some kinda druid dudes lifting the veil.

Doing the mi-i-i-ind guerrilla.

Some call it magic, the search for the grail.

Love is the answer, and you know that, for sure.

Love is flower--you got to let it, you got to let it grow.

So keep on playing those mind games together,

Faith in the future, outta the now.

You just can't beat on those mi-i-i-ind guerrillas,

Absolute elsewhere in the stones of your mind,

Yeah, we're playing those mind games forever,

Projecting our images in space and in time.

Yes is the answer, and you know that, for sure.

Yes is surrender--you got to let it, you got to let it go.

So keep on playing those mind games together,

Doing the ritual dance in the sun.

Millions of mi-i-i-ind guerrillas

Putting their soul power to the .

Keep on playing those mind games forever.

Raising the spirit of peace and love.

Love...

( make love, not war. I know you've heard it before.)

I Am Stretched on Your Grave

(Phillip King/Frank O'Connor)

I am stretched on your grave,

And will lie there forever.

If your hands were in mine,

I'd be sure we'd not sever.

My apple tree, my brightness,

It's time we were together,

For I smell of the earth

And am worn by the weather.

When my family thinks

That I'm safe in my bed,

From night until morning,

I am stretched at your head,

Calling out to the air

With tears hot and wild,

My grief for the girl

That I loved as a child.

Do you remember

The night we were lost,

In the shade of the blackthorn

And the chill of the frost?

Thanks be to Jesus

We did what was right,

And your maidenhead still

Is your pillar of light.

The priests and the friars

Approach me in dread

Because I still love you,

My love, and you're dead.

I still would be your shelter

Through rain and through storm.

And with you in your cold grave,

I cannot sleep warm.

So I'm stretched on your grave,

And will lie there forever.

If your hands were in mine,

I'd be sure we'd not sever.

My apple tree, my brightness,

It's time we were together,

For I smell of the earth

And am worn by the weather.

I Want Your (Hands on Me)

(Sinéad O'Connor/Mike Clowes/John Reynolds/Dean/Hollifield)

I want your hands on me.

What I want, give me.

You know I wanna please you,

What I wanna do to you.

You don't waste no time, do you?

You know I'm looking through you.

Why you wanna tease me?

I want you to come and please me.
