Track Name: Its A Bitch
I'm trying to learn Japanese
To improve my personality

But I can't not think of you (even though)
It's all I want my stupid brain to do

I'm planting tulips in my bath
I'm knitting mini gold and green giraffes
To take my sorry mind (away from you)
Everyday I want to email you

The funny thing is, baby
When we were together I was unhappy
But now that we are apart (like a little worm)
You've buried deep inside the caverns of my heart

I'm trying to accept you're gone
Get a new haircut and move the fuck right on
I hate you to my very core (and then I realise)
I love you so much more
It's a bitch!
Track Name: Johny And Kathy
"Johnny
Eggs are done
Coffee's in the pot"

"Kathy
Paper's here
Let's see what's going on"

And the old, kind lovers eat
Communicating with their feet

"Johnny
Did you know
Today its going to snow?"

"Kathy,"
Johnny said,
"We'd better stay in bed"

And each other do they hold
To stop their bodies getting cold

And the old, kind lovers sleep
While alarms sound in the street

And the old, kind lovers sleep
While alarms sound in the street
Track Name: My Baloon
Floating floating
Where the birds sing
My balloon goes by

Doesn't worry
Doesn't hurry
My balloon goes by

1,2,3,4
My heart soars


Oh how I wish my balloon would carry me
A million miles away
Away from this English rain and pain
Away to a sunny day

How great it would be
To be really frree
To swoop to the stars
And play my guitar
In a jungle
Or maybe in a coconut tree

Oh how I wish my balloon would carry me
Across the sea and land
To pick a mango from a branch
Now wouldn't that be grand

How cool it would be
To fly like a bee
To sing in Japan
On my ukulele
In a teahouse
Or underneath a bonsai tree

Oh, all the rivers
And all the streams
I'd see the fishes
They'd follow me

Oh how I wish my balloon would carry me
To another place
I'd fly in my polka-dot purple dress
With petticoats of lace

How nice it would be
To be really free
To swim through the sky
And sing as I fly
Over Turkey
Or maybe over gay Paris

How fine it would be
To be really free
Abandon my car
And float to the stars
Visit pluto
Oh blue balloon why don't you carry me?
Don't be put off by thoughts of gravity
Oh blue balloon why won't you carry me?
Track Name: You And Tree
We lay beneath the tree
It was a quarter past three
You were laughing at me
I was as happy could be

As the wind shook the tree
We felt totally free
the sun rising slowly
Lit the leaves magically

People ignored the tree
Couldn't hear and couldn't see
The spirits residing within its trunk

That morning I found peace
All my worries were released
There was an intricate plan in that trunk

Trunk of the tree
Holding the key
Intricate plan for you and me
Trunk of the
Holding the
Intricate
You
and
Trunk of the
Holding the
Incricate
You and tree
You and tree
Track Name: Orange Peel And Paper
Sailing on my boat
Made of orange peel and paper
I'm fine don't worry bout me no
I'm letting all my troubles go
Watching the silver fishes swim

The waves slap my bare feet
Like windstruck cabbage leaves
I'm fine don't worry bout me no
I'm letting all my problems go
I'm learning breathing underwater

Wrapped up in my
Duvet of lemon pie
I can unwind
Learn to be kind to myself

Sailing in the streams
I suck a purple pod of peas
I'm fine don't worry bout me no
I'm trying not to let it show
I'm waiting to stop breaking

Ravelled in my
Harp strings and butterflies
I can fall asleep
Learn to keep my dreams in a jar

Sailing on the seas
I hear the soft sweet song of peace
I'm fine don't worry bout me no
It's time for me now to let go
I'll be cosy on my own boat
Track Name: Meena
Spirit of rebellion
Pomegranite heart
Split atop a mountain's purple point
Passionate Meena the martyr
Oh, Meena

Song of birds in her
Family's fruit trees
Seep and soak into her soul
Sunbirds cry against injustice
In Kabul, her home.
Oh, Meena

Chorus
Meena, Meena, Meena
Meena
Like a river runs to the sea
Meena's story runs in me

Rivers raging fiercely
Against her troubled land
Blinking back her liquid eyes
She'd stroke her immortal daughter's hand
Oh, Meena

Chorus

Beneath her burqa black as night
Her lipstick glowed defiant red
To make a stand against the blood
That at the hands of men
Her sisters shed
Oh, Meena

Chorus

The Taliban did end her life
Brutal assasination
But her bravery still burns inside
The women of her nation
Oh, Meena

Chorus

Women of Afganistan
Are fighting their own revolution
To live a human life they fight
They're building a solution
Oh, Meena

Chorus
