Diamond Throat

|
Woke up two days ago
to a dream of a girl with a Diamond throat
and she cut off her eyes and she kissed me
like the sky
Cant change that she ain't tamed
and i wish her well, well shes gonna be on her way
Farewell
Cut the country down in size & i guess afterwards
i realized what its like
to be in Heaven.
Wonderin what the story will tell
when the world does seem to swell up
and explode
it'll turn into pieces of gold
and we'll all
and we'll all
and we'll all, Pray
Yeah we'll all Pray-- ey ey
Heard a noise & a rattle snake
yeah it wrapped up around me as i quivered
and it started to shake, it started to shake.
There goes that dandelion
and so fine and so thirsty like a little sea lion
well lets play, yeah lets play-ey ah.
Heard about it in the afternoon
Heard about it in the afternoon of May
Or was it March, or was it March.
She whispers only at the door
and she sings like a siren
yeah she sings like whore
well for me,
she does it all for me.
Bye bye blackbird
bye bye blackbird
bye bye blackbird

She was my friend
no shes not yours
but can we share
my friend of course
We went down twice
and then three more
cause all my friends

I dont know why
but maybe they
can shed some light
over my blank head
Cause i see women all the time
they created clouds
and count to nine
We were at nine
now twelve more friends
get to share
and they just dont seem to care
no no no no
i have four friends
yeah they dont know me

in between HER Kitty.

Alien Girl

Told my mama today that she was gonna marry
the preachers son
but when i woke up from my dream
I didn't realize i was the only one.
Mama told me a story yesterday and she said
it was the news.
Well mama don't worry your pretty little heart
cause thats just music called the blues.
She told me about this afternoon
man tried to commit suicide.
Claimed he saw an alien
and with his eyes was crucified.
And the Alien said
Mama told me yesterday was just
a day ago
But if i'm still living, Am i alive well
she didn't know.
Told me about this cave where men use to
be puppeteers.
I see the world around me
and its still the same
nothing but cheers.
So lets laugh and say
Lets laugh and say
Mama told me to many things
now I just look
pretty away from my rings
I open my eyes
and i see myself for what i'm worth.
I'm just a little beautiful blonde angel
living on earth.
A piece of meat to some
but to a few i might be a little less,
searching for a brave brave soul to
bring me what this world calls caress.
See i'm an alien that crucified a man
for committing suicide.
They talk about in the news a little boy the other day
called me blue.
He thinks that i'm a dream
because his eyes can't see the beauty that I am.
Am I an alien girl
or just a girl that dreams
well here on earth.
Who knows that IMA.
He knows that IMA.

ay que buscar los misterios
que se encuentran en mi corazon
ay que buscar los misterios
que encuantras en todos los aires
ay que buscar los misterios
que ay en las luzes que nunca perdemos
y cuando la gente se vay a los bainos
y nadie se cansa y nadie se queda
y nadie se cansa y nadie se queda
y nadie se cansa y nadie se queda
ay amor

y todos caemos
caemos otra vez
caemos otra vez
caemos otra vez
caemos otra vez
Callemos otra Vez

Hey!
well how are you today
Well how are you
now that the sun is rising
and the clouds are showing off
well how are you now

you feel like the world was
ending everyone was pretending to love you
to be your friend
to be your friends
but now you know
that everybody loves you
everybody loves you more than yesterday
still you're not satisfied
still you want to claim
that you're not good enough to be yourself
around me
well can i take you again to the place where
we once knew the world to see
like a telescope wrapped around the eyes
that i use to dream of the ones that use to be yours
well hey!
can we hope for something new?
can we hope that the statues that are build for you
well that they continue to float
baby stare at the flag that you once saw waving by
now imagine yourself all alone
with no technology to glorify the way you look
come one now
lets be uncivil
lets be animals
lets be natural again
lets be natural again
one more time
one more time
one more time

I hear them calling me and i'm still afraid
oh well, the flowers fell
oh well, the flowers fell

When you hear yourself
its an echo of life
when you can respond to the brain thats inside
when you feel like you're all alone
well my friend i promise

yeah my friend i promise you
there is a place called home
oh well, the flowers they fell

I wake this morning
and i'm feeling for you
I hear the seagulls in the sky
and they sing a beautiful song or two
i like the way you feel
the sand between my toes
i want to take you to a place
but everybody else already
goes
I can't help but hear you
and love you
yeah you're so beautiful
the way the waves of the ocean
light up your eyes
its so magnificent
the world
yeah the creatures and the stars and the skies
just close your eyes and see yourself
just close your eyes and see yourself
you're real
and you've got sex appeal
and you make me wanna
and you make me wanna hii
and you make me wanna
hide and seek
hide and seek
hide and seek
alright.
we keep on shining
like diamond that were never found
we keep on living and surviving
like the world before
human touched the ground.

The Black Velvetines Los Angeles, California
The Black Velvetines are an LA based Avant garde-folk duo formed in 2012 by Guitarist/ Drummer Dazie White and
Singer/Songwriter Hebert Lucio.
With sounds that are reminiscent of 70's folk and unconventional instruments such as African drum (Djembe), and a multi-functional plastic organ, this duo combines their diverse cultural background to create a more modern take on the California sound.
