Kangaroo

(Alex Chilton) BLACK NEON MUSIC
Gordon Sharp (Cindytalk), vocals
Simon Raymonde (Cocteau Twins), bass, acoustic guitar, dx7
Martin McGarrick, cello

I first saw you.
You had on blue jeans.
Your eyes couldn’t hide anything.
I saw you breathing
And I saw you staring out in space.
I next saw you, you was at a party.
Thought you was a queen, oh so flirty.
I came against.
Didn’t say excuse.
You knew what I was doing,
We looked very fine ’cause we were leaving.
Like Saint Joan, doing a cool, cool jerk
Oh I want you, Oh I want you… like a kangaroo…

Song to the Siren

(Tim Buckley) CARLIN MUSIC
Elizabeth Fraser (Cocteau Twins), vocals
Robin Guthrie (Cocteau Twins), guitar

On the floating, shipless oceans
I did all my best to smile
til your singing eyes and fingers
drew me loving into your eyes.
And you sang “Sail to me, sail to me;
Let me enfold you.”
Here I am, here I am waiting to hold you.
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
Were you here when I was full sail?
Now my foolish boat is leaning, broken lovelorn on your rocks.
For you sang, “Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow.”
Oh my heart, oh my heart shies from the sorrow.
I’m as puzzled as a newborn child.
I’m as riddled as the tide.
Should I stand amid the breakers?
Or shall I lie with death my bride?
Hear me sing: “Swim to me, swim to me, let me enfold you.”
“Here I am. Here I am, waiting to hold you.”

Late Night

(S. Barrett)

Voice: Caroline Crawley
Music: Jon Turner, Ivo Watts-Russell

When I woke up today
And you weren’t there to play
Then I wanted to be with you
When you showed me your eyes
Whispered love at the skies
Then I wanted to stay with you

Inside me I feel, alone and unreal
And the way you kiss will always be
A very special thing to me

When I lay still at night
Seeing stars high and light
Then I wanted to be with you
When the rooftops shone dark
All alone saw a spark
Spark of love just to stay with you

Inside me I feel, alone and unreal
And the way you kiss will always be
A very special thing to me

If I mention your name
Turn around on a chain
Then the sky opens up for you
When we grew very tall
When I saw you so small
Then I wanted to stay with you

Inside me I feel, alone and unreal
And the way you kiss will always be
A very special thing to me

Inside me I feel, alone and unreal
And the way you kiss will always be
A very special thing to me

Acid, Bitter & Sad

The half-moon is aching, bitter and sad.
We are wet. we are stripped to the bone.
It’s out of our hands, the dream we’re bound to dream.
We are wet, always alone
