Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river
You can hear the boats go by
You can spend the night beside her
And you know that she’s half crazy
But that’s why you want to be there
And she feeds you tea and oranges
That come all the way from China
And just when you mean to tell her
That you have no love to give her
Then she gets you on her wavelength
And she lets the river answer
That you’ve always been her lover
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that she will trust you
For you’ve touched her perfect body with your mind.

And Jesus was a sailor
When he walked upon the water
And he spent a long time watching
From his lonely wooden tower
And when he knew for certain
Only drowning men could see him
He said “All men will be sailors then
Until the sea shall free them”
But he himself was broken
Long before the sky would open
Forsaken, almost human
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
And you want to travel with him
And you want to travel blind
And you think maybe you’ll trust him
For he’s touched your perfect body with his mind.

Now Suzanne takes your hand
And she leads you to the river
She is wearing rags and feathers
From Salvation Army counters
And the sun pours down like honey
On our lady of the harbour
And she shows you where to look
Among the garbage and the flowers
There are heroes in the seaweed
There are children in the morning
They are leaning out for love
And they will lean that way forever
While Suzanne holds the mirror
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that you can trust her
For she’s touched your perfect body with her mind.

she was the cutest girl I’d seen
with eyes so deep and colored green
it only took a look you see
when Suzanne had put a spell on me
it made me feel so high in ecstasy
here I go, now you just got to know
the way I feel Suzanne
I knew I couldn’t try to move too fast
I know this time I have to make it last
the way she made me feel had got
a hold of me was so unreal
the way she made me feel would never pass
you make the sun shine in the day
why do you make me feel this way
you make me wanna fly away
far away
here I go, now you just got to know
the way I feel Suzanne
here I go, now you just got to know
the way I feel Suzanne

(when things get hot) oh my love
(when things get hot) i know you like the heat
(when things get hot) when things get much too much
(when things get hot)

So tell me why do you always run from me baby, like you do
Cause where there’s smoke there’s fire
I tell you love will never stay
When you’re playing the games you play
Suzanne, i understand maybe you’re scared to see
Just what your life really means to me
Suzanne, what will it take to make you stop giving up on love
When things get hot, suzanne

(when things get hot) oh my love
(when things get hot) do you keep your cool?
(when things get hot) things get too hot to touch
(when things get hot)

So tell me what are you holding out for now baby, like you do
I’m walking on that wire
How can i get through, there must be something more than i can do
Suzanne, i understand maybe you’re scared to see
Just what your life really means to me
Suzanne, what will it take to make you stop giving up on love
When things get hot, suzanne

I see the look in your eyes,
I don’t know why you fight it
You work so hard to deny, it’s crazy
Why do you play it safe
Baby wake up and have some faith

Baby i tell you true all the love will come back to you
Suzanne, this can’t be all there is to this
Suzanne, i’ll give so much to you if you don’t resist
Suzanne, i understand maybe you’re scared to see
Just what your life really means to me
Suzanne, what will it take to make you stop giving up on love
When things get hot, suzanne

I saw your name, baby
In a telephone booth
And it told all about you, mama
Boy, i hope it was the truth
I took down your number
Looked up your address, sue
And i was hopin’ that maybe
You could love me, too
I’m gonna wait in the shadows
For you to come by
I’m gonna wait in the shadows
For you to come by
And then i’ll jump from the shadows
And try and catch your eye
Gonna run my fingers through your hair
And love you everywhere
Now i don’t want to get too romantic
That’s just not my way
But when i get my arms around you
I’m gonna rock you all the night
Gonna rock you all the day
Suzanne, you won’t know it but i’ll be behind you
Don’t try and run away from me, little girl
Wherever you go i’ll find you
And when you go to the pictures
And i know you do
Don’t take no one with you
‘cause i’ll be there, too

(l. stansfield/i. devaney)

With lips inviting me to kiss them
You stare me straight in the hips
It’s all so simple it excites me
I stand and wait for your fingertips
You run your fingers through my hair
I feel the sweat on my back
There’s something everybody dreams of
My dream is in your hands

Chorus:
The kiss is sweeter when it’s under the sugar tree
Sweet and dripping with with deceit, yeah, the sugar tree

We move in closer to each other
I start to sway from the heat
I want this feeling of excitement
To lay me under the sugar tree
This is my honeysuckle dream
That lets me be who i want to be
Give me the best of your attention
And let me see what i wannna be

Chorus

Tonight you’re everything to me
And i don’t care what tomorrow may bring
Because i’m lying in yoour arms and the smell is so sweet
Let me be wild, let me free

This is my honeysuckle dream
That lets me be who i want to be
Give me the best of your attention
And let me see what i wannna be

Chorus and fade

And now we’d like to do a tribute to a very talented songwriter, singer, dancer, juggler, skateboarder, ice cream saleswoman, nazi hunter, fugitive logger, cakemaker, cat owner, dog worshipper,
Ge stuffer, mushroom licker and toadstool. this is our tribute to the very lovely and talented suzanne vega.

(knocking)
Come in.
A small boy comes walking on the street as afar above him a gull swings with tiny, razor-sharp onions taped to its eyelids and it screams, "this is your pune!"

And the boy says, "what’s a pune?" as he falls into a cup
And screams, "i am boiling, i think i’m boiling up."

And then the sky opens up and a huge craftwagon falls to the earth and out of it jumped jesus. and then i heard a sound, it sounded like freedom but it ended up being very quiet so i went back t
Ep. and then i heard a noise deep in my bowels. it reminded me of christmas trees because it was so green. and i had a floatation device installed in my liver so i would not sink if i drowned. a
En out of the nursery i heard the children screaming, "why do they always make me ?"

Are you lost in love?
Just like me
Looking for love
Just like me
Hoping for love
Just like me
Searching for love
Just like me

Ou est l’amour?

My uncle thought he was a tuba so we all blew hard on his buttocks and he made noises out of the bell of his head. and i said, "ha ha, there’s the funny uncle. he is a brass instrument, not
Odwind, remember that, kids." and then out of the dresser there came a loaf of socks and everyone said, "mmm delicious! just what we need for our picnic party!"

I dreamed of you
And i dreamed in blue
And then i washed my hair.

Sometimes when i’m all alone i crawl under the carpet and search for bits of lint and then i knit them together into a little brother and i torment him with my evil, evil eyes until he cries.

Have you ever smelled a porcupine as its thrown the air by a huge lumberjack who screams, "i’m never going to wash myself again, not for a million dollars!"

Are you lost in love?
Just like me
Looking for love
Just like me
Searching for love
Just like me
Looking for love
Just like me

Here we go!

I am a dolphin
I am a squirrel
I am a beast who lives beneath the waters
Watch me flip my venomous tail as i make noises with my blowhole.

I am a crystal piece of jewelry
I am a float in a big parade
I am a quiet little mincing moron in your suit pocket

I once left myself all alone and realized that i had no phone, so i borrowed my sister’s and she said, "may i call you?"

And i said, "why? because i am the pope of all the queens of england! would you kiss me?"

And then i heard a noise and it sounded like my little bones turning to squid and everyone kicked me and said, "release your ink now, buddy!"

And then i died
But no one cried
Because i died inside.

I see your face at the movies
I hear your voice on the radio
You’re makin’ love on the silver screen
I want you more, i know
Temptation…infatuation…
Suzanne, don’t walk away
On no suzanne, oh girl i’m callin’ you
Suzanne, so far away
Remember suzanne, those summer nights with me

I wonder if you’re really happy
And if you saw me, would you know my name
I’m the one you used to hold on to
You’re the one who used to wear my ring
Remember…our last september…

Oh suzanne, don’t walk away
On no suzanne, oh girl i’m callin’ you
Suzanne, so far away
Remember suzanne, those summer nights with me

Remember…our last september…
Suzanne, so far away
Remember suzanne, those summer nights with me

Suzanne, don’t walk away, i love you suzanne
I’m still callin’ you
Suzanne…no no no no no remember
Those summer nights with me, those summer nights
