"The Night That Never Ends"

One night when I was sleeping
A gypsy woman sneak into my head,
and she said,
"I've got a bottle of schnapps
Let's get to know each other drinking,
A belly full of laughs
And some thoughts that beyond thinking.
Let's play a game of those cards
My friend
Because tonight I'm going to show you
How the night it never, never, never end".

Morning is one thousand dreams away
And our mad condition telling us to stay.
So stay we will
We've got that gypsy lady perched upon our bow
And the empire ship be heading
Where the wild ones they are now.
Oh how the gods look down and frown
At those who never stood and said
My name is no-one
And went a little mad,
And went a little mad.

And from time to time she sneak back inside me
And she say
"Lucky sing the secrets that I taught you always".
Replied "as long as I am living
I never forget
That the sun is never rising and is never set".
So, let's make some fire
And smoke and then
We'll go exploring
In the night that never, never, never end.

Morning is one thousand dreams away
And our mad condition telling us to stay.
So stay we will
We've got that gypsy lady perched upon our bow
And the empire ship be heading
Where the wild ones they are now.
Oh how the gods look down and frown
At those who never stood and said
My name is no-one
And went a little mad,
And went a little mad.

I've got a tingle in my back
And something sparking in my toes,
I get the shivers through my body
When that trumpet blows.
And while asleep I am awake
And while awake I am dreaming
Before I start to think I am scheming
To start a party tonight, my friends,
Because the woman in my head she said
Tonight is never, never going to end.

"1001"

I went to my friends
Cause I found a fine beat
See I like to play a rhythm
Where the rhythm plays me
Play it all day
On a balcony above the street
Where old Franky and me
We shuffle with our feet.
And old man Georgie
Takes some sugar with his tea
When he's stirred by a melody
Of hands moving easy,
You see it reminds him
Dreams by the sea
Where the breeze blows
Underneath that island tree.

So we played til the playing
Gave us the munchies
Then we played in the kitchen
Made the easy gods happy
Cause we left them a little chilli special,
And some chocolate we eat because it's sweet (sweet!)
When I leave I am smiling
At the things I haven't done
Oh I haven't broke a sweat
And I haven't had to run
For the list of 1001
That does plague me
On some days
When the sun rays don't come.

I missed the parking inspector.
Just made my list of one thousand
One thousand and one.
Woah missed the parking inspector.

When I get to my car
I am faced with a sight
That is strange and it's sad
And it's mad it's not right
There's one thousand and one
Spaces free but I see
That he find me guilty
Of the time over fee.
Now I know why my mother
Why my mother warned me
Said "you might be lucky
But know nothing comes for free"
She is right - entirely
Cause the ticket paid the song
That I sing to this beat.

Parking inspector -
Just made my list of one thousand
One thousand and one...
But ah parking inspector -
Won't let you wreck my fun!
Cause when I pay for my ticket
I won't curse and despise
No I'll run into the girl
With the slinky blue eyes
Then my list of one thousand and one
Will remain,
Had plans to get it done
But now my plans they have changed!

I missed the parking inspector!
Just made my list of one thousand
One thousand and one.
Ah missed the parking inspector...

Just listen to the bass and the funky drums!
