Liar, Cheater,  She’s called a liar then she floats
Liar, Cheater,  She’s called a liar then she floats

And then she flies away, Never never not today
And then she wonders away
And then she flies away, Never never not today
And then she wonders away
With her magic in her hands

Liar, Cheater,  She’s called a liar then she floats
Liar, Cheater,  She’s called a liar then she floats

And one day, In the rain did I lie and I lied awake
And one day, In the rain did I lie and I lied a rain did I lie and I lied a rain did I lie and I lied awake
And one day, In the rain did I lie and I lied awake
And one day, In the rain did I lie and I lied a rain did I lie and I lied a rain did I lie and I lied awake


Daisy Chains

She looks through my window,
Or was it just the pitter-patter of the rain on her paper raincoat?
No time to listen cause I knows she's ok,
You know what they say rain rain go away but,
Oooooh, so she goes and makes her daisy chains.

And I know you can't be that bad,
But your looking so sad I'm all that you had
And I know you can't be that wrong,
But your lookin' for the words written in my song,
And I  know that you can't be that shy,
Cause I've seen what you got and I don't know why and I,
Know that you can't be that lame but you say you've changed but your still the same,
Ooohhh still the same

She looks through my wardrobe
And has a little geezer just to see if somethin' will please her,
No time to listen cause I know she's ok,
You know what they say come again another day but,
Ohhhhhh, so she goes and makes her daisy chains

Ohhhhhhhh  oho ohoooo,  Ohhhhhhhh  oho ohoooo

Ohhhhhhhh  oho ohoooo,  Ohhhhhhhh  oho ohoooo
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh,  Na na na na na na

Unseelie Wight

He lies in a bed of foresty green, with a,
Bead of smiles and a fae on his wrist,
But she cries, she worries that it's not what it seems,
Cause something is near its fear.

And I am one to, let an Unseelie Wight think of me
And I am one to, get a little bit frustrated, a little unsure

I cannot be here I want you to know,
Cause it's hard for me to leave but I'm ready to go,
But if you wait up to late I'll be at your door
With my bead of smiles and a little bit more

And your love keeps me here, here again
It's not love, you have won, I'm undone
Should I try to resist in your spell?
It won't matter, there's no use, I can tell.

He takes my breath as I look in his eyes and it's hard to believe
That’s it's just his disguise
He takes me to the river and he swallows me slow
As darkness engulfs me I slowly let go

And I am one to, let myself be a pawn of your play
And I am one to, get a little bit frustrated, a little unsure

She lies in a bed of foresty green, with a,
Bead of smiles and a fae on her wrist,
But she cries, she worries that it's not what it seems,
Cause something is near its fear.

And your love keeps me here, here again
It's not love, you have won, I'm undone
Should I try to resist in your spell?
It won't matter, there's no use, I can tell.
La la la la la la la la la etc….

I know that if you love me baby,
There aint no lovin’ compared to mine,
And I know that if you love me baby,
There aint no need or place or span of time.

Hmmm But I’ll shine and I'll watch and I'll wait I won't be crazy like you baby
and I’ll shine I’ll shine I’ll shine I’ll shine

I know that if you hate me baby,
There ain't no river with hate as wide,
And I know that if you hate me baby,
There’s nothin’ I can do or say that’ll break your pride

Hmmm But I’ll shine and I'll watch and I'll wait and I won't be crazy like you baby
and I’ll shine I’ll shine I’ll shine I’ll shine
So I'll wait but you want me too late and I cannot be with you
So I'll shine I'll shine I'll shine I'll shine

All the time……….
OOOoohhhhhhhh, OOOoohhhhhhhh

I know that if you want me baby,
A sweet sugar sugar and a sexy smile,
And I know that if you want me baby,
Live a little, love a little, I’d run a mile

Hmmm But I’ll shine and I'll watch and I'll wait and I won't be crazy like you baby
and I’ll shine I’ll shine I’ll shine I’ll shine
So I'll wait but you want me too late and I cannot be with you
So I'll shine I'll shine I'll shine I'll shine
All the time……….

The Gingerbread Girl

Thinking everyday that I’ll blow you a kiss,
But it never seems to blow, never goes,
And I wonder Why?
Can’t I find am I blind no it’s just you.
It’s a shame, am I vein?
On some runaway train,
No it’s never gonna seize til I have a piece of you…
Again

And then she calls out my name
And so I tell her the same

Everyday when I say that I missed you,
Can I kiss you?
But you turn away..
Everyday never gonna learn that you’ll regret!
And I cried and I sighed,
But I never nearly died cause you see,
I never fall to my knees, you think why?
It’s easy, you’re not the one!

And then she calls out my name
And so I tell her the same
And then she asks me again
And so I tell her my name

I’m the gingerbread girl,
Never gonna catch me,
Cause I’m overbaked,
And I’m really warm

Now that I’m loose I now know the truth,
That I’m free to be me,
I’m a runaway bee…Buzz,
Like an unsettled pebble in the stream.
So you see I have won like the sun,
Never done always coming round round,
Never boring no… nobody nobody no none

And every bird, has lost his feathers..

No time for picking up the pieces,
  No time for flying,
No time for making any mistakes,
No time for dying..

And every man, has lost his woman,
Every man, has lost his woman..

Every bird, has lost his feathers, yeah
Every bird, has lost his feathers,

And every moon, has lost its shadow,
Every moon has lost its shadow

HUSH
Written by Tanis Alia

One sunny day I was sittin’ in May,
Where the thistles tweaked and she said G’day,
With her bright green eyes and her table of disguise,
She whistled in my ear, are you all right dear? She said,

Hush me and I’m never gonna let you go,
No no no no no no
Hush me and I’m never gonna let you go

With her 'water-falling' hair and her chest so bear,
She came from a land that didn’t care,
About lollipop smiles and grovelling isles,
Of hatred and sacred, Itty bitty miles she said,

If you think that it is right to fool me,
Cause you are so holy empty humpty dumpty,
And you are so tired, never satisfied,
By your selfish ways, Never pave your ways
And I am Hurt.

Down by the water where her lovely daughter,
Drowned in the brook then she didn't look.
Now she waits and whines and stares at the skies,
She takes a peep as I dangle in the deep she says

Hush me and I’m never gonna let you go,
No no no no no no
Hush me and I’m never gonna let you go

Chief Warm Ears
Written by Tanis Alia

Just take a seat here, Near the big-ass fire,
‘Would you like a glass of my finest wine?’
‘No that’ll be fine’
‘Well ok,     but let me sing you this song’,
I cradle my guitar and I pluck her strings,
You smile at me a crooked smile and puff your cigarette. (puff)

I sing a song about a pair of shoes, that find their way inside a red canoe,
That happens to be owned by a red chief Indian.
Now, he’s never seen shoes so he stuck’em on his ears,
He smiled a crooked smile they stayed there for years,
The village now called him…. Chief Warm Ears

Chief Warm Ears, can you hear me?
Chief Warm Ears, Indefinetely,
Chief Warm Ears, listen to me,
Cause I’m crying out your name to the wind.

I won’t let you run away,
I won’t let you run……. Ooooohhhhhh
   
I am the Queen of my own big valley,
With a deep dish ring and a hand full of money,
And I don’t need food cause I’m made out of water,
Just my Lovey-Dovey man and my nine inch mamma
Oh yeahhhhhhhh

Just take a seat here, Near the big – ass fire,
‘Would you like a taste of my sweet fruit cake?’
‘Yeah, that’d be great’
‘By the look of your face, you don’t like my song?’
You get up get up get up ‘Uh uh, I don’t think so.’

One day he met a man out hunting in the woods,
But he couldn’t understand why the shoes weren’t on his foot,
The man went to laugh and said ‘you’ve got it wrong!’.
Chief Warm Ears said ‘ You’ll have to speak up son!’
The Goblin Song

My little giraffe,
Sits quietly up on my shoulder,
Nobody can see my little giraffe,
Except for me.

Nobody eat him,
Nobody breathe,
My little giraffe sits quietly,
There for me.

Uhuh uhuh uhuh..etc..

My little goblin,
Sits silently down below my ankle,
Nobody can see my little goblin,
Except for me.

Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Every Morning
Written by Tanis Alia
© 2004 Tanis All Rights Reserved.

Every morning I cry cause I’m never ever gonna be no
rock’n'roll superstar,
So I fall into a dream where I cannot see,
Little people with black hearts full of stone.

And I walk all alone,
And I walk on my own,
And I will not be tied with no water,
And I will be all me,
Because I am pretty,
And I will not be leashed by no collar.

Every morning the sky licks my feet,
And it calms my nerves with no pepper,
So I dance in the rain where it takes all my pain,
To the bottom of the Indian Ocean.

And I will follow, the little lines on the road,
Just to remind you, that my story is yet to be untold,
And I’ll listen to the words that you say,
Cause I’m intentive and my ears like to play.

Every morning a guy wakes me up with a kiss,
I guess he likes me a lot,
So I make him an egg and I bake him some bread
And I think to myself I am special

Everymorning my dog has an itch she’s a bitch with an itch I wish she would ditvh
I like to play in the fields with a bowl of fruit,
And light candles with leather brown sandles.

Thats Why I Sing

I don’t understand why you do and say the things that you do
Never understand and I’m really confused
We’ve been waiting so long now it comes to our song
And it seems like your running away

No No No I can’t believe that I keep falling you
No No No When you don’t feel the way that I want you to

Every time you wanted me something was there to disagree
It never seemed that time was on our side
And every time I wanted you You didn’t seem to want me to
We never seemed just to work it out

Singing No No No I can’t believe that I keep falling you
No No No When you don’t feel the way that I want you to

It’s gonna be alright It’s gonna be alright
Everything’s all right I said It’s gonna be all right

Mmm cha chicki cha cha ad lib X2

No No No , No No No
No No No , No No No
I can’t believe that I keep falling you
When you don’t feel the way that I want you to
Sayin’goodbye is such a difficult thing
That’s why I play…
That’s why I sing
