One eskimO Album Lyrics

One eskimO – 'Hometime'

Picture me in a boat on the sea,
Five fingered leaves keep covering me,
Don't you know that the big Ferris Wheel is eventually stalling,

I see you I see the animals too,
Especially those that are out at the zoo,
They look just like me and a lot like everybody,

And if we're lucky we might see the end of the day completely,

-chorus-
Collect all your things cuz it's hometime,
Come on,
Collect all your things cuz it's hometime,

People walkin' on top of the sea,
But this time it doesn't matter to me,
Because I've got these magical seeds and the trees are still growing,

Stone throwing I've got nothing to do,
Only hope I got the message to you,
Because if we're lucky we might see the end of the world completely,
And if we do than I hope that it's you waiting there to meet me,

-chorus-
Collect all your things cuz it's hometime,
Come on,
Collect all your things cuz it's hometime,

-Trumpet Instrumental-

-chorus-
Collect all your things cuz it's hometime,
Come on,
Collect all your things cuz it's hometime,
-continues till end-

One eskimO – 'Kandi'

You been my Queen longer than you know,
My love for you has been,
Every step I take,
Everyday I live,
Everything I see,
And if I get things wrong,
Don’t want you to fear,
I’m running away,
But I heard from Joe about this guy,
And I want to know, what did he say?

(He call me Babe, B-Baby, all night long)
What did he do?
(He call me Babe, B-Baby, all night long)

Why, why, why, did you leave him?
Where was I?
Just how close to you is he?
Every smile you gave,
Every touch you made,
Every word you say,
And it hurts beyond hurt,
It wasn’t love that blinds,
And the love that stays,
And I heard from Joe about this guy,
And I want to know, what did he say?

(He call me Babe, B-Baby, all night long)
What did he do?
(He call me Babe, B-Baby, all night long)
What did he say?
(He call me Babe, B-Baby, all night long)
What did he do?

He called you Babe, B-Baby, all night long,
What did he do?

(He call me Babe, B-Baby, all night long)
What did he say?
(He call me Babe, B-Baby, all night long)
What did he do?
(He called you Babe, Babe, Baby, Baby, Baby, Baby, all night long)
No, no, no, no,

I know he called you Babe, all night along.

One eskimO – 'Astronauts'

Float like a baby, trying to escape this, covered in time,
But every recording, you keep distorting, like an astronaut,
It's a funny old world, full of headaches sometimes, so whenever you need space, guess it's ok, when you're floating away, to feel nothing at all,
We can be astronauts, if you want to, get out of here,

Float like a baby, looking for safety, somewhere on Mars,
But if I'm mistaken, your body's in England, but your heads in the stars,
It's a funny old world, full of headaches sometimes, so whenever you need space, guess it's ok, when you're floating away, to feel nothing at all,
We can be astronauts, if you want to, get out of here,

It's a funny old world, full of headaches sometimes, so whenever you need space, guess it's ok, when you're floating away, to feel nothing at all,
We can be astronauts, if you want to, get out of here.

One eskimO - Chosen One

You might not be the chosen one
Still you wait for your time to come
But your faith has taken a tumble
And your pride is shaken and humble now
You must know nothing's set in stone
You must know that you're not alone

You try not to ever hate
But can't help but overcompensate
There's a smile, says everything's rosy
Maybe ten percent then it's mostly hell
You must know nothing's set in stone
You must know that you're not alone

You dream of another world
Where the guy always gets a girl
But your life is not like the movies
You can't shoot your way to hero
Should we spend time for the end add up
We should take some time for the end add up

The calm ones who get it done
And it's the brave that will overcome
Should you listen to your voices
When they lie and give you no more choices
Think what you're gonna do
In this phaze that you're going through

[Paul]

One eskimO - 'Chocolate'

I'm just sitting in the clouds today,
I hope to God it doesn't rain,
Coz everyone got problems and I know I've got mine,
But at least I've got the stars with me,

Then I fall down,
I just fall now,

Can I have your attention please,
We're like chocolate in the sun,
And in this heat,
We are melting into everyone,

She doesn't have the heart to say,
That she hasn't got the heart to stay,
She's got her problems so I stay out the way,
I'll be sitting in my clouds today,

Can I have your attention please,
We're like chocolate in the sun,
And in this heat,
We are melting into everyone,

Can I have you attention please,
We're like chocolate in the sun,
And in this heat,
We are melting into...

Can I have you attention please,
We're like chocolate in the sun,
And in this heat,
We are melting into everyone.

One eskimO - 'Simple Day'

Let me tell you about a simple day,
In my own way I woke up at 6 today,
Put on the coffee machine always dreamed of being a millionaire, Not a care in the world because I'm losing my hair,
Dressing up like the model in the shop window,
Oh no and I've got it wrong and it don't go,
Forget your watch and fined,
Your boss is in a mood,
Man what makes him think that he can be so rude,
Forgot to wash your face and your headaches too,
People staring as they pass you bye,
Let it go don't show that you're a single man,
Not a day goes by without a porno mag,
But d**ned if only I'd stayed at home today,
Be fine to live the rest of my life this way just a simple day,

Sometimes I don't know why we're living,
Just a simple day,
These times when everything's slow,
Just a simple day,
Sometimes I don't know why we're living,
Just a simple day,
These times,

Let me tell you about a simple day,
In my own way fine for Jade walking,
I was talking to the traffic man,
Who's on commission man,
He said 'that's what I do to put my kids through school,
So my apologies, enjoy your day',
Who's he to say that for taking my money away,
But man if I'd only stayed at home today,
Be fine to live the rest of my life this way just a simple day,

Sometimes I don't know why we're living,
Just a simple day,
These times when everything's slow,
Just a simple day,
Sometimes I don't know why we're living,
Just a simple day,
These times,

Just a simple day,
Sometimes I don't know why we're living,
Just a simple day,
These times when everything's slow,
Just a simple day,
Sometimes I don't know why we're living,
Just a simple day,
These times.

One of my personal favourite tracks by the band.

Hi, low and in-between

One day it just snowed I guess
and they closed the roads into your heart
You came home like a dead star
no light left, no loving anymore

Years ago you sent a postcard,
it's the one that always made me laugh
It said "send for reinforcements
cause there's too much here for me to love"

What would they say
What would they say to make you feel OK
What would they do
What would they do to make you feel OK

Years ago I read a story
about a man who had a plan
Tied himself on to a balloon
yeah, cut the ties and tried to reach the moon

Rescued by an airline pilot
15,000 feet above the world
Dragged him down, they wished him luck
they'd hoped that he learned his lesson well

What would they say
What would they say to make him feel OK
What would they do
What would they do to make him feel OK

Kathy I can still see stars
the same ones that we wished upon
I know you know your way around
but I can tell you're losing ground

I can see you on the radar
but you know I could never bring you back
You cut the ties, you're floating free yeah, hi and lo and inbetween
you cut the ties, you're floating free yeah, hi and lo and inbetween

[RyeCatcher]

Thanks Mark! (I made the request as a guest before I registered)

That was one of the songs they performed in Montreal. It's the bonus track with iTunes, so the lyrics aren't with the digital booklet (neither are Given Up ... another awesome song).

[Glenn (One EskimO Fan)]

Yeah that's the only problem with downloading tracks sometimes. :-( I like the booklet! Hmm, yeah it'd be nice to get Givin' Up on here too.

[K]
