Lyrics:

I. The Dream





what



makes a dream



so very different



from any other dream



where is that



straight line



that i can hold up



to the light



and say NO!



this is not right



this does not stand up



in the light





II. One Man





call me cavanaugh



i'm the one with the caveman jaw



call me smitty or jones



talkin' on the tv's and the telephones



i am the critical masses



stand back and watch as time passes



i am the centerfold



i know the stories before they get told



you can call me kennedy



you may have killed him but you cannot kill me



i am the crippled and blind



i paint the pretty pictures on the subway signs



yeah, I am everything to everyone



and I won't go away at the point of a gun



all of this in one man



i am rock 'n roll



i am classical, country and soul



i am the nun and the flasher



i am the father, the son and the bastard



i am the church and the steeple



open the door and see all the people



all of this in one man





III. Garden People





i'm coming down



people's garden



garden people



people's garden



garden people





IV. Looking Straight Into The Light





look!



there's a light



headed for the sun



stand and you might



turn to everyone



the lady, the lass



melt into glass



looking straight into the light



stand at the door



that would not open wide



you tried so hard before



but now we're on your side



you see us all - the left and the right



looking straight into the light



you see us all - the left and the right



looking straight into the light



looking straight into the light



looking straight into the light !



in the light......





V. The Man In The Mountain





i am the man in the mountain



i stand alone - i've been downed



in a sea of loveless illusion



so many lost - so many drowned



got no church - got no steeple



got no time for you people



i live the life of a shadow



the only chance that i have now



is there....



in the light



they wore all kinds of things on their heads to disguise



that they'd rather be unfettered than be wealthy and wise



and they listened as their enemies made a similar sound and



they watched a million cars go by



they were gaining some ground



but they didn't know what to do



with this thing they had found



so they had a party!?





VI. Senor Valasco's Mystic Voodoo Love Dance





i am senor valasco



i drink my milk with tabasco



got no place to stand



got no home, no land, but i



don't ever want to die



don't place no one before i



i am the mask and the chamber



i know of love not of danger



got no place to go



ain't nothin' better than be here



don't ever want to die



don't place no one before i





VII. The Return Of The Horrible Catfish man





i am the catfish man!



i can't hear you!



go ahead and have a nice day now



go ahead and say what you say now



i stand humanis erectus



stand back.... ha...ha...ha!



i am........I AM.............



all of this in one man





VIII. The Dream





what makes a dream



so very different



from any other dream



where is that



straight line



that i can hold up



to the light and say YES!



this is alright



this one will



stand up



in the



light
