song list next song previous song Deep Purple: Total Abandon - Live In Australia '99 Deep Purple: Abandon Almost Human
(Gillan/Glover/Lord/Morse/Paice)
Well, I know you're the only one that understands
Afore ye go, before you leave
You always shake my hand
Even when I'm crazy
On fire and naked
Just as Nature intended
No style and easily blended

You always know where I'll be found
I'm hanging somewhere near the ground
Help me up or help me down

Don't want to lose those days
When everything is just a haze
I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming

I believe I could walk before I learned to crawl
And when I look up, the Devil's looking back
From the mirror on the wall
You can open the door
I got my feet stuck to the floor
I may have lost my way
But I didn't get where I am today

You always know where I'll be found
I'm hanging somewhere near the ground
Help me up or help me down

Don't want to lose those days
When everything is just a haze
I'm dreaming

You spin into my empty room
And once again I'm almost human
Almost human

You always know where I'll be found
I'm hanging somewhere near the ground
Help me up or help me down

Don't want to lose those days
When everything is just a haze
I'm dreaming

You spin into my empty room
And once again I'm almost human
Almost human

song list next song previous song Deep Purple: The Book Of Taliesyn Anthem
(Lord/Evans)
When the night winds softly blow through my open window
Then I start to remember the girl that brought me joy
Now the night wind softly blows sadness to tomorrow
Bringing tears to eyes so tired, eyes I thought could cry no more
If the day would only come then you might just appear
Even though you'd soon be gone when I reached out my hand
If I could see you - If only I could see you
To see if you are laughing or crying
When the night winds softly blow

In my dark and whispering room memories still bring me
A numbness to my feelings - Take my hand and brush me by
In the warm and fevered dark heart is madly beating
My crazy thoughts are burning when the night winds softly blow
If the day would only come then you might just appear
Even though you'd soon be gone when I reached out my hand
If I could see you - If only I could see you
To see if you are laughing or crying
When the night winds softly blow

If the day would only come then you might just appear
Even though you'd soon be gone when I reached out my hand
If I could see you - If only I could see you
To see if you are laughing or crying
When the night winds softly blow
song list next song previous song Deep Purple: Abandon Any Fule Kno That
(Gillan/Glover/Lord/Morse/Paice)
If you're in the right city at the right time
What's the last thing going through your mind
Not talking 'bout your, ask no questions, you know it's a lie
You're just a victim of a corporate crime
All the signs of a shark attack
You've got rivers of blood on the streets, don't look back
Nothing personal, just another snack
'N Harley said you're better off sticking to your guns
Any fule kno that

Oh Moronica Queen of the Biz
And her friend Flash Harry thinks he knows what it is
Tin Pan Alley Fat Head Larry don't know shit
Just trying to keep her happy
There's no laughing in heaven, not the one, not the seven
And you'll never get to heaven in her row boat
Pea brain pisser, dog breath kisser
'N Harley said you're better off sticking to your guns
Any fule kno that
Any fule kno that
Any fule kno that

Oooh...
Won't it be nice
When everything falls into place

Salad days go a-tickling by
Have a high time, burn money in the meantime
They bleed you dry
Those suckers are smaller than life
Oh Moronica Queen of the Biz
And her friend Flash Harry thinks he knows what it is
Tin Pan Alley Fat Head Larry don't know shit
I'm better off sticking to my guns
Any fule kno that
Any fule kno that
Any fule kno that

Oooh...
Won't it be nice
When everything falls into place

Danny went down to the river one day
Didn't come back, that's the last, they say
We ever saw of him, that's no lie
Spitting in your eye, have no fear
You don't want the truth
Stick your finger in your ear
Any fule kno that
Any fule kno that
Any fule kno that

song list next song previous song Deep Purple: Come Hell Or High Water Deep Purple: The Battle Rages On... Anya
(Blackmore/Gillan/Glover/Lord)
I'm so far away from everything you know
Your name is carried, carried on the wind
Oh your ice blue waters Anya, where do they flow?
Where have they been? Ah where have they been?
A hidden passion touching a spark
Flame of revolution burning wild in your gypsy heart
Oh your gypsy heart
Anya Anya the spirit of freedom
Anya Anya oouh... Anya

The light of freedom buried deep within your soul
Across the puszta plain to see
The rhapsody of angels refuse to dance alone
What do they mean? Oh what do they mean?
Your jewel flashing across the dark
Forbidding distance, I love your gypsy heart
Oh your gypsy heart
Anya Anya the spirit of freedom
Anya Anya oouh... Anya

Jewel flashing across the dark
Forbidding distance, I love your gypsy heart
Oh your gypsy heart
Anya Anya the spirit of freedom
Anya Anya oouh... Anya
song list next song previous song Deep Purple: Come Hell Or High Water Deep Purple: Fireball Anyone's Daughter
(Paice/Lord/Glover/Gillan/Blackmore)
I stood under your bedroom window
Throwing up a brick
No one came I threw one more
That really did the trick
Your daddy came and banged my head
He said what kind of man
Is this that's hanging 'round my girl
And threw me in the car
You're a farmer's daughter
You're a farmer's daughter
Why do I always get
The kinda girl I didn't oughta get
I won't get no more eggs and water
Now I've laid the farmer's daughter

Imagine I was a full-grown man
And I could talk just right
Could I come and see you here
And do this every night
Wham!  The door comes crashing down
Your daddy's face all pale
Says come with me you hairy bum
I'll put you in my jail
You're a judge's daughter
You're a judge's daughter
Why do I always get
The kinda girl I didn't oughta v et
Now I'm getting jail and torture
'Cause I made the judge's daughter

It seems they're screaming law and order
When I go with anyone's daughter

Woman I should like some peace
And daddy hold your tongue
I think you're gonna die of fright
When I tell you what I've done
I can hear your tales and lies
You say I'm dumb and scraggy
But man this dumb and scraggy is
Your daughter's baby's daddy
She's a lucky daughter
Such a lucky daughter
Why did I always get
The kinda girl I didn't wanna get
Now I've got what I always fought for
'Cause I've married a rich man's daughter
song list next song previous song Deep Purple: Deep Purple April
(Blackmore/Lord)
April is a cruel time even though the sun may shine
And world looks in the shade as it slowly comes away
Still falleth the April rain and the valley's filled with pain
And you can't say if I cry
As I look up to the grey sky where it should be blue
Grey sky, where I should see you
Ask why, why it should be so
I'll cry - Say that I don't know

Maybe once in a while I'll forget and I'll smile
But then the feeling comes again of an April without end
Of an April lonely as a [???] In the dark of my mind I can see all too fine
But there is nothing to be done when I just can't feel the sun
And the springtime is the season of the night
Grey sky, where it should be blue
Grey sky, where I should see you
Ask why, why it should be so
I'll cry - Say that I don't know, I don't know
song list Deep Purple: Letter B previous song Deep Purple: Purpendicular The Aviator
(Deep Purple)
Riding on the moonpath in the silver of the night
The fragrance on the air was of another time
I cried in all my innocence, you were dressed in white
even if I'd had the strength, I couldn't move to save my life

The fear and the thrill of the beast at the window
The shivers and the chills on the hottest of nights
He walked right through my open door
As I began to run, he threw some gold upon the floor
And said "There's plenty more where that came from"

I'm tired of the bombs
I'm tired of the bullets
I'm the aviator
A dream's a dream whatever it seems
Whatever it seems

I flew along the lighted streets, I flew above the town
I flew in ever rising circles ever further from the ground
As I begin to lose my breath faces turn a spin
A distant corner of the room will open up and let me in

I'm tired of the news
I'm tired of the weather
I'm the aviator
A dream's a dream whatever they say
Whatever they say

Oooh

I flew along the lighted streets, I flew above the town
I flew in ever rising circles ever further from the ground
I cried in all my innocence, you were dressed in white
And even if I'd had the strength, I couldn't move to save my life

I'm tired of the bombs
Tired of the bullets
Tired of the crazies on TV
I'm the aviator
A dream's a dream whatever it seems

And I'm tired of the news
Tired of the weather
Tired of the same thing every day
I'm the aviator
A dream's a dream whatever they say
Whatever they say
