Chez Tina 03:36
hang the clouds down low upon me let wind blow softly on me where the river meets the sea in whispered evening melody sunset on the beach betrays me sand and stone will not upraise me angel voices come to guide me where the harmony will hide me chez Tina chaque soir on decouvre l'espoir now the rolling rocks are ringing run right through by Tina singing joy and pain and dancing, spinning back again to the beginning chez Tina chaque soir on decouvre l'espoir

she stands alone in the desert in a bush of thorns and the thorns have no mercy on my naked limbs and i can't move forward and i can't move back and my blood stains the desert sands red she dances lonely in the desert in her bush of thorns and the bones of her friends are lying scattered in the sand they couldn't move forward and they couldn't move back so they hung on the thorns till they were dead but she is happy in the desert with her bush of thorns she is happy with the blood and the thorns and the bones and she won't move forward and she won't move back and she counts all the men she owns

Dark Eyes 02:46
dark eyes burning deep with power growing stronger by the hour light the path where i must go beyond the evening undertow back into the rolling water mother ocean, river daughter where all things change and flow beyond the evening undertow stand still - moments leave you no-one ever will deceive you only time and tide will know beyond the evening undertow tear starred eyes of joy and sorrow looking out beyond tomorrow let the lessons learned all go beyond the evening undertow

Sleeping Beauty and the Beast communed in telepathic messages in looks and smiles and looks away in anything but words surrounded by her hedge of thorns protected by his hairy roughness Sleeping Beauty and the Beast went flying with the birds the birds all turned and spoke to Beauty "why this merry dance you lead your Beast? do you not know for sure what you may yet unmask?" and to the Beast they twittered easty noises of encouragement -- quite what he dared believe his goal they could not bear to ask for Sleeping Beauty cannot be awakened but by One True Kiss from One True Prince who cuts the One True Way through her defence the Beast meanwhile can barely smile since Belle gave up on him and wed another Sleeping Beauty and the Beast? can that make sense? no sense at all nor logic for these matters are of love and of the heart as it is written it is spoken it is done and hopeless dreams of hope may turn in time and Sleeping Beauty and the Beast may yet discover what is Two and what is One for Beauty's One True Prince and Beauty's Beast may yet be found the same and Beast's True Belle and Beauty may yet turn out to be One and Sleeping Beauty and the Beast must dance this minuet in different guises for eternity until the lesson's done

about

Before Wayne changed the name of the band to 'Fit and the Conniptions' it was called 'Fast Freddie Fourier and the Transforms'. This was the only release under that name.
