The Downward Pull Of Human Nature

Written by:

29 Jul 1996

Consider this, consider that, consider this,
You've got to consider this and that;
Consider this, consider this,
Consider this, consider this...

Did you ever look sideways at your best friend's wife?
Ever consider that sweet married life.
Your mind runs riot, you know who you are;
Ever get the feeling that you move too far.

A Little Strange

She's a little strange
Just a little strange
A little strange...

I would walk a city mile
Just to see that silly smile,
She's a little strange.

All In Your Favour

One flash of revelation, may never strike you twice.
One little touch of inspiration, going to sweeten your life.
All the goodness in your secret self,
All the friends that you can call on for help.
All the ways you have to make people cry;
All the ways you have to make yourself try.

A long time since I saw love in my garden;
A long time since I met love at my door.
Sometimes I thought I knew you,
Sometimes I saw straight through you.
- Lord I hope I never see you no more.

Sunshine's Better

If I call you sugar, if you call me honey,
Does this mean you've got a hand in my fate.
If you take my money, if I take your liberty,
Does it mean it's all down to love and hate.
If you open doors for me, I'll have the manners to respond;
I'll treat you like mine.
Ah babe, ah baby.
