about

This is song is heavily inspired by the novel 'Still Life With Woodpecker' by Tom Robbins

lyrics

Who knows how to make love stay?
It don't play to rules, it don't work that way
You can't chain it down like some exotic beast
Just take it day by day and give it away for free
Don't let it turn into some worn out cliche
'Cause often times it really tends to go that way
Romance aint no bandwagon for lost souls
With nothing better to ride
Love's an outlaw baby can't you see?
Oh tell me please

Who's side are you on anyway?
Who knows how to make love stay?
The woodpecker broke the camel's back
There's Leigh-Cheri's dreams on a 20 pack

When freedom's outlawed only outlaws will be free
I saw that painted on a wall education from the streets
So listen princess as you build your tomb
This aint no fairytale at all, we're just barking at the moon
There's just one word in outlaw philosophy
Its the simple word of choice wrapped in veils of mystery
You know the reason why they built the pyramids?
Pedestals for our souls to bravely dance upon the tips
Everything's a part of it now, oh can't you see?

Who knows how to make love stay?
Perpetuating the mystery
Won't be deprived of the joys of life
There's smiling eyes read between the lines

It'll be alright, it'll be okay
Our lifes but a drama and the world is but our stage
It'll be alright now, it'll be okay
The simple facts of life are out here on the final page
