What are you listening to at the moment? What are the lyrics being sung just now or what lyrics just jump out at you?

Tell us the song and a couple of lines of the lyrics...

Please, keep it short and to-the-point though. I want to make this a quick-fire thread... :)

Example...

"So don't call me 'Babe' – 'cause I ain't your little girl."

Well I could think of 3 words that those initials stand for and it would be a good name for a similar band, but reckon they'd be sued by the furniture people. I thought EMF cos someone once told me what that stood for - I'm sure the band is something similar if not that.

My son has just turned off the radio and the last words I heard were:

"Up the Junction" - Squeeze - can't recall what the line before was though

You're got me way down, way down deep
I wander with you in my sleep

Dark sexy skin
My passion begins
You're the centre of my obsession
I'm watching you dance
In your leather pants
My eyes see a true perfection
I'm hypnotised by the rhythm of your hips
It's so hard to hide
And I can't resist

:rofl: (eh Tess?)

Another one....


He comes from a foreign place
An island far away
Intrigues me with every move
Til' I'm breathless, I'm helpless
Can't keep my cool
Steals my heart when he takes my hand
And we dance, to the rhythm of the band
I feel his finger tips, grip my hips
And I slip as we dip into a rare bliss

Mama used to warn me
To beware of those Latin lovers
She said I gave my heart too soon
And that's how I became your mother
I said ay mama, you seem to forget
I'm not in love yet
Sweet talk don't win me over
But I realized
Big brown eyes can hypnotize
When he says

I am full blood boricua
Reads the tattoo on his arm
He tells me, mami I need ya
And my heartbeat pumps so strong
Getting lost in el ritmo
He whispers te quiero, te quiero
I begin to give in with no hesitation
Can't help my infatuation
(Ah ah, ah ah, ah ah)
It's pure infatuation
(Ah ah, ah ah, ah ah)
Hey...

Skin the color of cinnamon
His eyes light up and I melt within
Feels so good it must be a sin
I can't stop what I started
I'm giving in
He brings life to my fantasies
Sparks a passion inside of me
Finds the words when I can not speak
In the silence, his heartbeat is music to me

Mama used to warn me
Not to rush love with another
She said I'm not trying to lecture
I just care about my daughter
Ay mama, you seem to forget
I never will let
A man control my emotions
But when he smiles (when he smiles)
I feel like a little child
When he says

I am full blood boricua
Reads the tattoo on his arm (whoa, whoa)

For the first time in my life
I can't fight my way out of my own little corner
And I don't like it one bit
Have I lost what it takes?

I seem to make progress
A pill here, a potion there: but it keeps on coming
They don't hide my fears
Oh, no they don't stop the aches

Life is like a boxer,Always one more punch to throw
A jab, a hook, an uppercut: Oh the pain grows blow by blow

Put the face on, close the door
Now I'm mentally prepared to face the roaring crowd
But they don't know or care
They don't want to see

The real me, the state I'm in
A pitiful pile on the corner of the floor
Lonsdale Belt? I'll never win
No, it wasn't meant to be.

So much blood I'm starting to drown
Runs from cold to colder
Time to time the sky's come down
To help me lose my way
Tears and lies for answers
You and open veins, God knows I'm gone
Girl I just want you to
Come on down
Lord it's a storm and I'm heading to fall
These sins are mine and I've done wrong, oh babe
Come on down

Long Gone Day
Mmmm, who ever said
We wash away with the rain

See you all from time to time
Isn't it so strange
How far away we all are now
Am I the only one who remembers that summer
Oh, I remember
Everyday each time the place was saved
The music that we made
The wind has carried all of that away

Long gone day
Mmmm, who ever said
We wash away with the rain

So many tears I'm starting to drown
The rain in heaven's all come down
Silver spoons affix the crown
The luckless ones are broken
Fears and lies for answers
You and open flames
God knows I'm gone
And I just want you to
Come on down, hmmm

Lord it's a storm and I'm heading to fall
These sins are mine and I've done wrong
I want you to, oh, I just want you to
Come on down

I fear again, like then, I've lost my way
And shout to God to bring my sunny day

Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would fall down
I'd just stare out my window
Dreamin' of what could be
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray

Trying hard to reach out
But when I tried to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanting to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I prayed I could break away

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change
And break away
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget all the ones that I love

Wanna feel the warm breeze
Sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get on board a fast train
Travel on a jetplane, far away
And break away

Buildings with a hundred floors
Swinging round revolving doors
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me
But, gotta keep moving on, moving on
Fly away, break away

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye, gotta
Take a risk, take a chance, make a change
And break away
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I won't forget the place I come from

When the sun has wept upon the waveless lake
And the mists steal in with ease
Covened wolves are their eerie dissonant napes
In adoration of the moon and thee

"They call as I to thee...."

And I will come, as if in dream
My languid, dark and lustrous Malaresian Queen
Of vengeful, ancient breed
Gilded with the pelts of many enemies
Erishkigal, raven-haired
Thy seduction haunts the castle in erotic despair
I can taste thy scent by candlelight
Legs of porcelain traced and laced to their lair
Appease the beast on spattered sheets
Dyed unearthly red as sobriety weeps

Nocternity....
She shall come for me

A black velvet painting sprung to elegant life
Like a poignant Madonna perverted to night
And I have ridden from the westerning light
To expend my lust
Tear away the funereal dress
Know that I will escape from my death
Surrendered to the splendour of her sharpened caress

Lo! The pale moonlight
Weaves a poetic spell of vital death and decline
Of mist and moth and the hunger inside
Kisses took to fever and the fever, demise

"Through twilight, darkness and moonrise
My scarlet tears will run
As stolen blood and whispered love
Of fantasies undone"

Countess swathed in ebony
And snow-white balletic grace
Rouge-filmed lips procure the wish
For lust and her disgrace

Dusk and her embrace

We shall flit through the shadows
Like a dream of (were)wolves in the snow
Under deadly nightshade
Still warmed with the kill's afterglow

Beneath the stars thy flesh bedevils me
(Beneath the stars taste the death in me)
Bequeath to me thy fiery kiss
To sever thin mortality

Elizabeth
My heart is thine
Thy fragrant words Warm within like wine....

"Let me come to thee
With eyes like Asphodel
Moon-glancing, loose desires free
To writhe under my spell"

Ereshkigal, raven-haired
Thy seduction haunts the castle in erotic despair
I know thy scent by candlelight
Immortal flesh I yearn to share
Appease the beast on spattered sheets
Dyed malefic red as sobriety weeps
Nocternity
She shall come for me....

Unfurl thy limbs breathless succubus
How the full embosomed fog
Imparts the night to us....

Dusk and her embrace - Cradle of Filth

"Jenny Was A Friend Of Mine"

We took a walk that night, but it wasn't the same
We had a fight on the promenade out in the rain
She said she loved me, but she had somewhere to go
She couldn't scream while I held her close
I swore I'd never let her go
Tell me what you wanna know
Oh come on, oh come on, oh come on
There ain't no motive for this crime
Jenny was a friend of mine
So come on, oh come on, oh come on

I know my rights, I've been here all day and it's time
For me to go, so let me know if it's alright
I just can't take this, I swear I told you the truth
She couldn't scream while I held her close
I swore I'd never let her go

Tell me what you wanna know
Oh come on, oh come on, oh come on
And then you whisper in my ear
I know what you're doing here
So come on, oh come on, oh come on
There ain't no motive for this crime
Jenny was a friend of mine
Oh come on, oh come on, oh come on

Let me take you down, underneath this false surface
Tonight is the night when we travel into the heart of the unknown
Night reveals what is hidden in the shadows
What you see is just a shell of me

To escape the suffering we keep our emotions at a distance
So far away that our skin becomes our fortress
Leave with me and you'll see what lies ahead
Let's gather in twilight
In those blue reflections

We are coming out as one
That is when we arrive
That is when we realize
This is when we fall down

Diamonds on my windshield
Tears from heaven
Pulling into town on the Interstate
Pulling a steel train in the rain
The wind bites my cheek through the wing
Fast flying, freway driving
Always makes me sing

There's a Duster tryin' to change my tune
Pulling up fast on the right
Rolling restlessly, twenty-four hour moon

Wisconsin hiker with a cue-ball head
Wishing he was home in a Wiscosin bed
fifteen feet of snow in the East
Colder then a welldigger's ass

Oceanside it ends the ride, San Clemente coming up
Sunday desperadoes slip by, gas station closed,
cruise with a dry back
Orange drive-in the neon billin'
Theatre's fillin' to the brim
Slave girls and a hot spurn bucket full of sin

Metropolitan area with interchange and connections
Fly-by-nights from Riverside
Black and white plates, out of state,
running a little bit late

Sailors jockey for the fast lane
101 don't miss it
Rolling hills and concrete fields
The broken line's on your mind

Eights go east and the fives go north
The merging nexus back and forth
You see your sign, cross the line,
signalling with a blink

The radio's gone off the air
Gives you time to think
You ease it out and you creep across
Intersection light goes out
You hear the rumble
As you fumble for a cigarette
Blazing through this midnight jungle
Remember someone that you met
One more block; the engine talks
And whispers 'home at last'
It whispers, whispers, whispers
'home at last', home at last

MY DAYS OF SPRING

My days of Spring, I don't regret your flight,
Mere lover's dreams elapsed in fruitless fashion,
I don't regret you, sweet nocturnal rites
Toasted to strains of reed pipe's plaintive passion;

I don't regret you, friends' inconstancy,
Goblets, or vestal chaplets for the brow,
I don't regret you, beauty's perfidy
Pensive, I'm stranger to amusements now.

But where are you, moments of sweet emotion
And hopes of youth, and heart's tranquillity,
Where is my former fire of inspiration?
Oh, days of Spring, return again to me!

WINTER MORNING

Cold frost and sunshine: day of wonder!
But you, my friend, are still in slumber--
Wake up, my beauty, time belies:
You dormant eyes, I beg you, broaden
Toward the northerly Aurora,
As though a northern star arise!

Recall last night, the snow was whirling,
Across the sky, the haze was twirling,
The moon, as though a pale dye,
Emerged with yellow through faint clouds.
And there you sat, immersed in doubts,
And now, -- just take a look outside:

The snow below the bluish skies,
Like a majestic carpet lies,
And in the light of day it shimmers.
The woods are dusky. Through the frost
The greenish fir-trees are exposed;
And under ice, a river glitters.

The room is lit with amber light.
And bursting, popping in delight
Hot stove still rattles in a fray.
While it is nice to hear its clatter,
Perhaps, we should command to saddle
A fervent mare into the sleight?

And sliding on the morning snow
Dear friend, we'll let our worries go,
And with the zealous mare we'll flee.
We'll visit empty ranges, thence,
The woods, which used to be so dense
And then the shore, so dear to me.

La notte insegue il giorno il giorno la notte
ma sotto queste nuvole non cambia mai
e scorre alla rovescia il libro dei ricordi
ma il sapore del mio cibo è sempre quello
io vorrei attraversare il cielo attraversare il mare
per cercare un po' di verit*
ma quello che mi ferma è la paura di sapere
che tutta la mia gente vive nell'oscurit*
vorrei chiedere a colui che governa la pace e la guerra
sulla terra tra l'umanit*
quanti anni ancora da passare
prima che quest'uomo si possa riposare
troppo sangue scorre ancora per le strade
troppi uomini ancora imprigionati
troppi uomini ancora incatenati al ritmo del lavoro e del sudore
sole quando sorgerai su di me su di noi?
vorrei il sole su di me su chi non l'ha visto mai
il sole è la luce che ti scalda o che ti brucia
è la voce di chi non ha parlato mai
è un soldato che butta le armi e chiede pace
è come un prigioniero che vuole libert*
è una rivoluzione di pace e di amore
è come la pioggia nella siccit*
è l'urlo di chi non ha mai avuto voce
e non vuole restare nell'oscurit*
vorrei chiedere a colui che governa la pace e la guerra
sulla terra tra l'umanit*
quanti anni ancora da passare
prima che quest'uomo si possa riposare
troppo sangue scorre ancora per le strade
troppi uomini ancora imprigionati
troppi uomini ancora condannati al ritmo del lavoro e del sudore
sole quando sorgerai su di me su di noi?
vorrei sole su di me su chi non l'ha visto mai…

To ***

I still remember that amazing moment
You have appeared before my sight
As though a brief and fleeting omen,
Pure phantom in enchanting light.

Locked in depression's hopeless captive,
In haste of clamorous processions,
I heard your voice-- soft and attractive.
And dreamt of your beloved expressions.

Time passed. In gusts, rebellious and active,
A tempest scattered my affections
And I forgot your voice attractive,
Your sacred and divine expressions.

Detained in darkness, isolation,
My days would slowly drag in strife.
With lack of faith and inspiration,
With lack of tears, and love and life.

My soul attained its waking moment:
You re-appeared before my sight,
As though a brief and fleeting omen,
Pure phantom in enchanting light.

And now, my heart, in fascination
Beats rapidly and finds revived:
Devout faith and inspiration,
And tender tears and love and life.

Unchain the colours before my eyes,
Yesterday's sorrows, tomorrow's white lies.
Scan the horizon, the clouds take me higher,
I shall return from out of fire.

Tears for rememberance, and tears for joy,
Tears for somebody and this lonely boy.
Out in the madness, the all seeing eye,
Flickers above us, to light up the sky.

Unchain the colours before my eyes,
Yesterday's sorrows, tomorrow's white lies.
Scan the horizon, the clouds take me higher,
I shall return from out of fire.

Was I?



Sweet young thing of sixteen
Thought I'd step out one night
I longed to get the thrill in life I missed
I met a youth, a bit uncouth,
Although he seemed alright,
I knew him by the moment when we kissed.
When I got home next day with a swollen head,
My girlfriend asked if I had fun I said,

Was I drunk?
Was he handsome?
And did Mama give me hell?
Did I get a thrill and am I full aquiver?
Was he rough? Did I care?
Am I glad I fell?
very time I think of him, do I shiver?

Was he high? And was I?
And would he stand for me?
He would not. Did I lie?
Does he still think I'm a baby?
If I was, am I still?
Do I care? Don't be sill!
Was I drunk? Was he handsome?
And did Mama give me Hell?

Was I drunk? Was he handsome?
Did Mama give me Hell?
With his hands loose there's no refusing.
Did he fight? Was I blue?
Almost shamed to tell,
And I don't know yet the system he was using.
Well, I said, "Stop, please behave."
Well, what's the use of raving?
He said, "Give," so I gave.
After all what was I saving?
Am I glad? Holy Gee,
If I had fun, you're asking me.
Was I drunk? Was he handsome?
And did Mama give me Hell?

Don't ask me why alone in dismal thought
In times of mirth, I'm often filled with strife,
And why my weary stare is so distraught,
And why I don't enjoy the dream of life;

Don't ask me why my soul has slowly perished
And ceased to love the love that pleased me then
No longer can I call someone "my cherished"--
Who once has loved will never love again;

Who once felt bliss will never feel its essence,
A moment's happiness is all that we receive:
From youth, prosperity and joyful pleasance
All that is left is apathy and grief...

NOTHING ELSE MATTERS

So close, no matter how far.
Couldn't be much more from the heart.
Forever trusting who we are.
And nothing else matters...

Never opened myself this way.
Life is ours, we live it our way.
All these words I don't just say.
And nothing else matters...

Trust I seek and I find in you.
Every day for us something new.
Open mind for a different view.
And nothing else matters...

Never cared for what they say.
Never cared for games they play.
Never cared for what they do.
Never cared for what they know,
But I know...

MAMA SAID

Mama, she has taught me well.
Told me when I was young.
"Son, your life's an open book.
Don't close it 'fore it's done."

The brightest flame burns quickest.
That's what I heard her say.
A son's heart's owed to mother,
But I must find my way.

"Rebel" my new last name,
Wild blood in my veins.
Apron strings around my neck,
The mark that still remains.

I left home at an early age
Of what I heard was wrong.
I never asked forgiveness
But what I said is done.

Mama, now I'm coming home,
I'm not all you wished of me.
A mother's love for her son
Unspoken, help me be.

I took your love for granted,
And all the the things you said to me.
I need your arms to welcome me,
But a cold stone's all I see...

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
They're really saying I love you.

I hear babies crying, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world.

Pain "Not Afraid To Die"


A journey through the space, colours, planets everywhere
We're testing our insanity
A razor across our skins, dropping all these magic pills
Can't you see we're floating away

Come take my hand, we'll fly away
We'll move in silence
We'll take a trip inside our heads
Frame by frame

We're not afraid to die
We're not afraid to lose our minds
We're not afraid to face the things we left behind
We're not afraid

Can you feel the vibration now
Turn your body inside out
This is really going to hurt
Diving to the sea of hell
Can you hear the judgment bells
It's ringing for you and I

Hear how it's calling out our names
You better drop another pill
It will never be the same
We're going down

We're not afraid to die
We're not afraid to lose our minds
We're not afraid to face the things we left behind
We're not afraid to cry
We're not afraid to kiss the sky
We're not afraid to face the things we left behind

A constant replay of our lives is flashing before my eyes
A silent movie in black and white

Maybe it got too much too soon
It's getting hot as hell, we're burning up, I think we're gonna crash

We're not afraid to die
We're not afraid to lose our minds
We're not afraid to face the things we left behind
We're not afraid to cry
We're not afraid to kiss the sky
We're not afraid to face the things we left behind

Falling down. Giving in...

When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,
When you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on.

Don't let yourself go, cause everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes.

Sometimes everything is wrong. Now it's time to sing along.
When your day is night alone, (hold on, hold on)
If you feel like letting go, (hold on)
If you think you've had too much of this life, well hang on.

Cause' everybody hurts. Take comfort in your friends.
Everybody hurts. Don't throw your hand.

Oh, no. Don't throw your hand.
When you feel like you're alone, no, no, no, you're not alone
If you're on your own in this life, the days and nights are long,
When you think you've had too much of this life to hang on.

Everybody cries. And everybody hurts sometimes.
And everybody hurts sometimes. So, hold on, hold on.

Hold on, hold on.

To dance to flutes, to dance to lutes,

But it is not sweet, with nimble feet,

The languid fatigue of love
Interrogated all our beauty
We've turned each other inside out
Drowning in ebony tears
The long face of cherrlessness
The only bonding we share
Enlightened by degredation
The only pleasure is pain
Drowning in ebony tears
Embedded in our resentment
Lay the keys to disengage
But still we burn in persecution

And underneath a street lamp I met a Southern belle
Well she took me to the river, where she cast her spell
And in that Southern moonlight, she sang a song so well

If you'll be my dixie chicken, I'll be your Tennessee lamb
And we can walk together down in dixieland
Down in dixieland

Well we made all the hot spots. My money flowed like wine
Then that low down Southern whiskey began to fog my mind
And I don't remember church bells or the money I put down
On the white picket fence and boardwalk of the house at the edge of town
But boy do I remember the strain of her refrain
The nights we spent together, and the way she called my name

I want to make magic
I want to strike lightning in the sky
I want to do things you can't believe anyone would try
I want to make magic

I want to make magic
Make every moment a surprise
I'll capture your senses in a spell
Right before your eyes
I want to make magic

I want to make you think it's really real
I want to make you love the nobles roman
Weep for Willy Loman
Dream the dreams of Blanche du Bois

I want to make you laugh and roar and squeal

I want to guillotine the villain's neck off
Take a shot at Chekhov
Make it a rollercoaster ride up to a star!

I want to make magic
I want to take chances that are bold
I want to tell stories no one knows
That no one's ever told.

Now the audience is still
And the house lights are gone
Curtain going up
And I am on!

I want to do it all from A to Z
I want to do "The Lion In Winter"
Brecht and Harold Pinter
Sophocles, Eugene O'Neill

I want a chance to see what I can be
Another Jason Robards or De Niro
Play a tragic hero
Go for it all and really show the way I feel/

I want to make magic!

I want to make magic

Magic!

I want to make magic

Magic!

A thousand chances we can take
But it's all worth it when we make ...

I have held back from posting my own lyrics, but it occurs to me that I would not have posted them elsewhere if I did not like them, and musicians would not have recorded them if they did not like them too, and these got high praise from a songwriting consultant.

Sean Holland wrote that he was putting on a lot of weight. He then said he was going to the seaside. Another joked that he better take plenty of sun screen. Sean responded that, to anyone in his locality, he was sunscreen. This inspired:

"Summer days are coming
sun loving times begin
I want to surf you baby
til' the waves come rolling in

Put me on like sunscreen
wear me like a tan
I want to swim in you like water
be your loving seaside man.

Put your old love Aside
that isn't natures plan
and soon you'll find that you're beside
beside you're seaside man"

Ev'ry time i think of you
I always catch my breath
And Im still standing here
And your miles away
And Im wondering why you left..

And there's a storm thats raging
Through my frozen heart tonight..

An unsavoury You spending my time on them
Without hesitation earning your money on us
Forged truth coming out
-filthy fingers

Alone cutting glass
Breaking hearts
Tinker with words

Stocked expectations in all this sickness
Get on your horses plodding in march
Overlook the future
Embrace the spirits of enterprise

Winter enclosure

Peaceful exploitations of deadly words
Soil is pulsating
Transmitted by the sweetest smile
Her beam embraces him
Sun swallow drunken mind
And writes her name on face

Overloaded memories were spilt on fire
The lack of comfort makes heroes of pain
Recreates the stars as the flare is conquered by aptitude

Winter enclosure

Vivid sounds creates connecting tunes
Soil is pulsating
The song is fully blown
A choir hymns the saddest melody
In hypnotic landscapes
Icebound the flower shiver

Icebound (the flower shiver) - Octavia

A gentle rain falls softly on my weary eyes
As if to hide a lonely tear
My life will be forever Autumn
'Cause you're not here.

Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there's just one left

Well we all have a face
That we hide away forever
And we take them out and show ourselves
When everyone has gone
Some are satin some are steel
Some are silk and some are leather
They're the faces of the stranger
But we love to try them on

Borderline cases
Reinforced glass
Absent friends
Passport photos
An elastic past
Empty pocket
They think it is all...
They think it's soul
All wrapped up on a swollen lip
He draws the warm pipe.

Chemicals
Chemicals captured in winter's grip
Turn us on

Seperate the leper
Hungry ghosts
Hungry ghosts
Another imprint
In borrowed clothes
We can be numb
We can be numb
Passing through

Blow blow blow blow

Future proof
Real thin air
Real thin air

Why do you do what you do to me baby?
Shaking my confidence, driving me crazy.
You know if I could I'd do anything for you,
Please don't ignore me cause you know I adore you.

Can't you just pretend to be nice?
Can you at least pretend to be nice?
If you could just pretend to be nice,
Then everything in my life would be all right.

Hotel hobbies padding dawns hollow corridors
A typewriter cackles out a stream of memories
Drying out a conscience, evicting a nightmare
Opening the doors for the dreams to come home
We live out lives in private shells
Ignore our senses and fool ourselves
To thinking that out there there's someone else cares
Someone to answer all our prayers

Are we too far gone, are we so irresponsible
Have we lost our balls, or do we just not care
We're terminal cases that keep talking medicine
Pretending the end isn't quite that near

We make futile gestures, act to the cameras
With our made up faces and PR smiles
And when the angel comes down, down to deliver us
We'll find out that after all, we're only men of straw

But everything is still the same
Passing the time passing the blame
We carry on in the same old way
We'll find out we left it too late one day to say what we meant to say

Just when you thought it was safe to go back to the water
Those problems seem to arise the ones you never really thought of
The feeling you get is similar to something like drowning
Out of your mind, you're out of your depth, you should have taken soundings
Clutching at straws, we're clutching at straws

And if you ever come across us don't give us your sympathy
You can buy us a drink and just shake our hands
And you'll recognise by the reflection in our eyes
That deep down inside we're all one and the same

We're clutching at straws
We're still drowning Clutching at straws

Grease, sweat, coffee, faded shipyard pictures
Giant living there I used to know
Author of the testosterone scriptures
Where did you go?

Now I remember what you told me that time
Falling from my bike,
scraping my knee
If you're gonna weep,
keep it from sunshine,
So no one sees

I won't cry
Above all things boy, be a man

See little boy hiding amongst shadows
Ashamed of tears exposing ancient pain
From the storms predicted by the Tarot
Pray for the rain

I won't cry
Above all things boy, be a man

I stand, look in my hands
I talk with these lines
It's not the answer
I'm crying and now I know
Looking the sky
I search an answer
So free, free to be
I'm not another liar
I just want to be myself... myself

And now the beat inside me
is a sort of a cold breeze and I've
never any feeling inside
around me I bring my body
carry it into another world
I know I live... but like a stone I'm falling down

Damned, looking into the sky
I can feel this rain
right now it's falling on me
fly, I just want to fly
life is all mine
some days I cry alone,
but I know I'm not the only one
I see that another day is gone
I don't wanna die...
Please be here when I arrive, don't die... please

I still recall the taste of your tears
Echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears.
My favourite dreams of you still wash ashore
Scraping through my head til I don't wanna sleep....... anymore

You always were the one to show me how
Back then I couldn't do the things that I can do now
This thing is slowly taking me apart
Grey would be the color if I had a heart
Come on tell me

In this place it seems like such a shame.
Though it all looks different now,
I know it's still the same
Everywhere I look you're all I see.
Just a fading fcuking reminder of who I used to be.

Come on tell me.
You make this all go away.
You make this all go away.
I'm down to just one thing.
And I'm starting to scare myself.
You make this all go way.
You make this all go way.
I just want something.
I just want something I can never have

Is there no sign of light as we stand in the darkness?
Watching the sun arise
Is there no sign of life as we gaze at the waters?
Into the strangers eyes

And who are we to criticize or scorn the things that they do?
For we shall seek and we shall find Ammonia Avenue

If we call for the proof and we question the answers
Only the doubt will grow
Are we blind to the truth or a sign to believe in?
Only the wise will know

And word by word they handed down the light that shines today
And those who came at first to scoff, remained behind to pray
Yes those who came at first to scoff, remained behind to pray

When you can't hear the rhyme and you can't see the reason
Why should the hope remain?
For a man will be tired and his soul will grow weary
Living his life in vain

And who are we to justify the right in all we do?
Until we seek until we find Ammonia Avenue

Through all the doubt somehow they knew
And stone by stone they built it high
Until the sun broke through
A ray of hope, a shining light Ammonia Avenue

I, I just took a ride
in a silver machine
and I'm still feeling mean

Do you want to ride
see yourself going by
The other side of the sky
I got a silver machine

It flies sideways through time
It's an electric line
To your Zodiac sign

I got silver machine
8mile silver machine

It flies out of a dream
It's anti-septically clean
You're gonna know where I've been
In my silver machine

The love shared by woman and man
Miracle that I don't understand
In this world of shifting sands
You'll know I love you

I know, now, we will never meet
As I leave this world, its at your feet
I'm here if you should ever need
To know I love you

If you're like me, you'll wonder why
No answers however hard you try
And if you feel you need to cry
Just know I love you

And so the fates have made there choice
Though we'll never meet you'll know my voice
So in your father's love rejoice
Because I love you

I'm not there to watch you grow
Something you should know
I am with you
When you're feeling low
You're not alone
We'll face the issue

Ch:
Feel no pain, feel no shame
Take no blame, feel no shame you have a mum
Who does the best she can
I was taken out the plan
You need to be the man
Rise up: make your stand

Its nice to be nice
Good to be good
Do the right thing you should
Support the weak
Split the genuine from the fakes
Though you'll make mistakes
Learn you're lessons

Chorus

Laugh, and the world laughs with you
But cry, and you cry alone...

For your Mum, there'll come a time
She will need love to
So you be strong
He isn't me, thats fine
Don't stop being you
But get along

Don't think me unkind
Words are hard to find
The only cheques I've left unsigned
From the banks of chaos in my mind
And when their eloquence escapes me
Their logic ties me up and rapes me

De do do do, de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
De do do do, de da da da
Their innocence will pull me through
De do do do, de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
De do do do, de da da da
They're meaningless and all that's true

Poets, priests and poiticians
Have words to thank for their positions
Words that scream for your submission
And no one's jamming their transmission
'Cos when their eloquence escapes you
Their logic ties you up and rapes you

De do do do, de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
De do do do, de da da da
Their innocence will pull me through
De do do do, de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
De do do do, de da da da
They're meaningless and all that's true

De do do do, de da da da
Is all I want to say to you
De do do do, de da da da

It's not the way you look,
it's not the way you smile..
although theres something to them.
it's not the way you have your hair,
it's not that certain style;
it could be that with you.

If I had a photograph of you,
it's something to remind me.
I wouldnt spend my life just wishing.

Its not the make-up
And it's not the way that you dance,
It's not the evening sky.
It's more the way your eyes
are laughing as they glance
Across the great divide.

If I had a photograph of you,
it's something to remind me.
I wouldnt spend my life just wishing.

It's not the things you say
It's not the things you do
It must be something more
And if I feel this way for so long
Tell me is it all for nothing
Just don't walk out the door.

If I had a photograph of you,
something to remind me.
I wouldnt spend my life just wishing...

(Wishing) If I had a photograph of you... A Flock of Seagulls..

Thank you... here's another...

You do something to me, something deep inside
I'm hanging on the wire for a love I'll never find
You do something wonderful then chase it all away
Mixing my emotions that throws me back again
Hanging on the wire, I m waiting for the change
I'm dancing through the fire, just to catch a flame
an' feel real again

You do something to me somewhere deep inside
I'm hoping to get close to a peace I cannot find

Dancing through the fire, just to catch a flame
Just to get close to, just close enough
To tell you that.......


You do something to me, something deep inside..

V* las ruinas de una ciudad ca*da
Entre ellas me sent* perdida
Como extrañe ese d*a

Ya lo hemos llorado
El gran amor de nuestro pasado
Prometimos nunca olvidarlo

Con el tiempo las piedras se gastan
Con los años mis recuerdos cambian

En la desolación veo residuos de t* que han
Sobrevivido el rigor del tiempo
En la desolación veo residuos de t* estas
Son las ruinas en mi mente
Las ruinas de t*

Cruzando la sombra del corredor
Siguiendo la luz de un farol
Como tu y yo supimos lo que importaba

Entre las ruinas sent* una historia
De lo que una vez fué y nunca más será
Como tu y yo perdimos esa inocencia

Con el tiempo las piedras se gastan
Con los años mis recuerdos cambian

En la desolación veo residuos de t* que han
Sobrevivido el rigor del tiempo
En la desolación veo residuos de t* estas
Son las ruinas en mi mente

En la desolación veo residuos de t* que han
Sobrevivido el rigor del tiempo
En la desolación veo residuos de t* estas

Still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
its still hard to say
what's going on..

Still a little bit of your ghost, your witness
Still a little bit of your face I havent kissed
You step a little closer each day
But I cant say what's going on...

Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
so its not hard to fall,
When you float like a cannonball..

Still a little bit of your song in my ear
Theres still a little bit of your words, I long to hear
You step a little closer to me
So close I cant see what's going on..

Turn down the lights
Turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me, tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize
Don't patronize me

'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't.

I'll close my eyes, then I won't see
The love you don't feel when you're holdin me
Morning will come and I'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight

'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't

Down, oh down
Down, oh down
Down, oh down

My pain is self-chosen
At least I believe it to be
I could either drown
Or pull off my skin and swim to shore
Now I can grow a beautiful shell for all to see

16 years old when I went to war,
To fight for a land fit for heroes,
God on my side, and a gun in my hand,
Chasing my days down to zero,
And I marched and I fought and I bled and I died,
And I never did get any older,
But I knew at the time that a year in the line,
Is a long enough life for a soldier.

We all volunteered, and we wrote down our names,
And we added two years to our ages,
Eager for life and ahead of the game,
Ready for history's pages,
And we brawled and we fought and we whored 'til we stood,
Ten thousand shoulder to shoulder,
A thirst for the Hun, we were food for the gun,
And that's what you are when you're soldiers.

I heard my friend cry, and he sank to his knees,
Coughing blood as he screamed for his mother,
And I fell by his side, and that's how we died,
Clinging like kids to each other,
And we lay in the mud and the guts and the blood,
And I wept as his body grew colder,
And I called for my mother and she never came,
Though it wasn't my fault and I wasn't to blame,
The day not half over and ten thousand slain,
And now there's nobody remembers our names,
And that's how it is for a soldier.

Oh once in your life you find someone
who will turn your world around
bring you up, when youre feeling down

Yeah, nothing can change what you mean to me
oh, theres lots that i could say
but just hold me now
cos our love will light the way..


I've been waiting for so long
For something to arrive
For love to come along

You became the light on the dark side of me.
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill.
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and
The light that you shine can be seen.

Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh, the more I get of you,
Stranger it feels, Yeah..
And now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the grave.

There is so much a man can tell you,
So much he can say.
You remain, my power, my pleasure, my pain, baby
To me your'e like a growing addiction that I cant deny.

Under the black sunlight
On deserted streets
Uneasy dreams I sleep
In this forgotten place
I'm a forgotten face
Sometimes I don't exist
Like the dust swept aside

Fade away on the wind fadeaway
To walk away into the tide walkaway

The end of the great black gold
That's the dream
That's the dream
The dream that I wake up to
The dawn of the great black sun
It shines on me

Scream for help
From this silent soul
This man feels no pain
This pride will not break
I want to breathe the night
I want to feel the air
I want to take it in deep
I want to set myself free

Fade away on the wind fadeaway
Walk away into the tide walkaway

The end of the great black gold

A soldier came knocking upon the queen's door.
He said, "I am not fighting for you any more".
Well the queen knew she'd seen his face someplace before,
and slowly she let him inside.

He said, "I've watched your palace up here on the hill,
and I've wondered who's the woman for whom we all kill,
but I am leaving tomorrow and you can do what you will,
only first I am asking you, why?"

Down in the long narrow hall he was led,
into her rooms with her tapestries red,
and she never once took the crown from her head.
She asked him there to sit down.

He said, "I see you now, and you are so very young,
but I have seen more battles lost than I have battles won,
and I have got this intuition, says it's all for your fun.
So now will you tell me, why?"

The young queen, she fixed him with an arrogant eye.
She said, "You won't understand, and you may as well not try"
But her face was a child's, and he thought she would cry,
and she closed herself up like a fan.

She said, "I have swallowed a secret burning thread.
It cuts me inside, and often I've bled"
He laid his hand then on top of her head,
and he bowed her down to the ground.

"Tell me how hungry are you? How weak you must feel,
as you are living here alone, and you are never revealed.
But I won't march again on your battlefield"
And he took her to the window to see.

The sun, it was gold, though the sky, it was grey,
and she wanted more than she ever could say;
but she knew how it frightened her, and she turned away,
and would not look at his face again.

He said, "I want to live as an honest man.
To get all I deserve and to give all I can,
and to love a young woman who I don't understand.
Your highness, your ways are very strange."

But the crown, it had fallen, and she thought she would break,
and she stood there, ashamed of the way her heart ached.
She took him to the doorstep and she asked him to wait;
She would only be a moment inside. . . .


Out in the distance her order was heard,
and the soldier was killed, still waiting for her word.
Then while the queen went on strangling in the solitude she preferred,
the battle continued on

Ive been alone with you inside my mind
And in my dreams Ive kissed your lips
A thousand times
I sometimes see you pass outside my door
Hello, is it me your looking for...

I can see it in your eyes
I can see it in your smile
Youre all Ive ever wanted
And my arms are open wide

Cause you know just what to say
And you know just what to do
And I want to tell you so much
I love you

I long to see the sunlight in your hair
And tell you time and time again how much i care
Sometimes I feel my heart will overflow
Hello, Ive just got to let you know

Cause I wonder where you are
And I wonder what you do
Are you somewhere feeling lonely
Or is someone loving you?

Tell me how to win your heart
For I havent got a clue
But let me start by saying
I love you....

My dreams, they've got to kissin, because I dont get sleep, no..

Windmill, Windmill for the land,
Turn forever hand in hand,
Take it all in on your stride,
It is ticking, falling down,
Love forever love is free,
Let's turn forever you and me

I'm out here, by myself.
All alone.
Ready to blow my head off.
I hurt so bad inside.
I wish you could see the world through my eyes.
Each day is the same
I just wanna laugh again...

Message keeps getting clearer, radios on and I'm moving round the place
I check myself out in the mirror I wanna change my clothes my hair my face
Man I ain't getting nowhere just sitting in a dump like this
There's something happening somewhere baby I just know that there is

You can't start a fire, you cant start a fire without a spark
This guns for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark

You sit around getting older there's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
I'll shake this world off my shoulders come baby this laughs on me

Stay on the streets of this town and they'll be carving you up alright
They say you got to stay hungry hey baby I'm just about starving tonight
I'm dying for some action I'm sick of sitting round here trying to write this book

You can't start a fire, you cant start a fire without a spark
This guns for hire even if we're just dancing in the dark

Many, many years ago I went to a folk night at the Blue Anchor in South Croydon. The singer introduced a lady that had just come from the USA. She was a very attractive slim blonde, with a face that knew the wind and the sun, and more than her years should know. I watched her, transfixed, all night. Apparently she had the same effect on the singer, because he started an affair with her. Eventually she had a "What am I doing with a married man about twice my age" moment, and returned to the States. He was unable to follow her. Commie folk singers were not welcome. Instead he pleaded with her on the phone, promising to leave his wife. He also sang her a song he had written for her.:-


The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the night and the empty skies my love
To the night and the empty skies

The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth turn in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command my love
That was there at my command

The first time ever I lay with you
And felt your heart beat close to mine
I thought our joy would fill the earth
And would last til the end of time my love
And would last til the end of time

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the night and the empty skies my love
To the night and the empty skies
Ewan MacColl - the lady was Peggy Seegar, and they stayed together until he died.

You drink your coffee and I sip my tea
And we're sitting here playing so cool, thinking "What will be, will be"
But it's getting kind of late now
Oh I wonder if you'll stay now, stay now, stay now, stay now
Or will you just politely say goodnight?

I move a little closer to you, not knowing quite what to do
And I'm feeling all fingers and thumbs, I spill my tea, oh silly me!
But it's getting kind of late now
I wonder if you'll stay now, stay now, stay now, stay now
Or will you just politely say goodnight?

And then we touch much too much
This moment has been waiting for a long long time
Makes me shiver, it makes me quiver
This moment I'm so unsure
This moment I've waited for
Is it something you've been waiting for, waiting for too?

Take off your eyes, bare your soul
Gather me to you and make me whole
Tell me your secrets, sing me the song
Sing it to me in the silent tongue
But it's getting kind of late now
I wonder if you'll stay now, stay now, stay now, stay now
Or will you just politely say goodnight?

A winters day
In a deep and dark december;
I am alone,
Gazing from my window to the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
Ive built walls,
A fortress deep and mighty,
That none may penetrate.
I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain.
Its laughter and its loving I disdain.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

Dont talk of love,
But Ive heard the words before;
Its sleeping in my memory.
I wont disturb the slumber of feelings that have died.
If I never loved I never would have cried.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

I have my books
And my poetry to protect me;
I am shielded in my armor,
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.
I touch no one and no one touches me.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

And a rock feels no pain;
And an island never cries

Sometimes I feel
Like I don't have a partner
Sometimes I feel
Like my only friend
Is the city I live in
The city of Angels
Lonely as I am
Together we cry

I drive on her streets
'Cause she's my companion
I walk through her hills
'Cause she knows who I am
She sees my good deeds and
She kisses the winded and
I never worry
Now that is a lie

I don't ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
I don't ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all that way

It's hard to believe
That there's nobody out there
It's hard to believe
That I'm all alone
At least I have her love
The city she loves me
Lonely as I am
Together we cry

I don't ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
I don't ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
Ooh no
Love me I say

Under the bridge downtown
Is were I drew some blood
Under the bridge downtown
I could not get enough
Under the bridge downtown
Forgot about my love
Under the bridge downtown
I gave my life away
Ooh no

As I walk away
I look over my shoulder
To see what I'm leaving behind
Pieces of puzzles
And wishes on eyelashes fail

Oh, how do I show
All the love inside my heart
for this is all new
And I'm feeling my way through the dark

I used to talk
With honest conviction
Of how I predicted my world
Gonna leave it to stargazers
Tell me what your telescope says

Oh, what is in store for me now
Its coming apart
For this is all new
And I'm feeling my way through the dark

Trying to find a light on somewhere
Trying to find a light on somewhere
I'm finding I'm falling
In love with the dark over here

Oh, what do I know, I dont care
Where I start
for my troubles are few
As I'm feeling my way through the dark
Through the dark
Yes I'm feeling my way through the dark

As far as my eyes can see
There are shadows approaching me
And to those I left behind
I wanted you to know
You've always shared my deepest thoughts
You follow where I go
And oh when I'm old and wise
Bitter words mean little to me
Autumn winds will blow right through me
And someday in the mist of time
When they asked me if I knew you
I'd smile and say you were a friend of mine
And the sadness would be lifted from my eyes
Oh when I'm old and wise
As far as my eyes can see
There are shadows surrounding me
And to those I leave behind
I want you all to know
You've always shared my darkest hours
I'll miss you when I go
And oh, when I'm old and wise
Heavy words that tossed and blew me
Like autumn winds will blow right through me
And someday in the mist of time
When they ask you if you knew me
Remember that you were a friend of mine
As the final curtain falls before my eyes
Oh when I'm old and wise
As far as my eyes can see

Animals don’t have a choice. If they’re not happy with their place in the world... too bad.
They have to live the life they’ve been given.
Humans, on the other hand, don’t have to.
We have a choice.
If you don’t like your place in the world, you can get off anytime you want.
Suicide. That’s right.
You don’t like the way your life’s going,
you don’t like the way you are in the world,
anything around you, you can check out anytime you like.
Animals aren’t allowed that thought
and believe me, if they were, they would use it.
There’d be a lot of dogs and cats, owned by assholes
that live in high-rises, diving out the windows.
Zebras... if they even had remotely that thought
would take a look at themselves and go, “What the F*#K!”
Black & white in a green & brown world... this blows.
I’m just gonna jump in the river....
I don’t have a thumb to work a gun or hold a knife
or even open a jar of pills.
I’m just gonna dive into the next lion’s mouth.
Why even bother?”
Now, monkeys have the opposable thumb
so they could kinda do it the exact same way we do.
Now, there’s a bunch of people that say,
“Oh, it’s against the law”.
Well, it’s only against the law if you do a crappy job and get caught.
Other people say, “Oh, we should save them”.
Yeah, well you know what?
Not everybody wants to be saved.
Not everybody should be saved.
And who are we to force our will upon them?
I mean, isn’t that one of the joys about being a human?
Freedom of choice?
Now, it’s not all bad.
Now, I’m not saying “Kill yourself”.
But if you’re gonna be an idiot and do it anyway,
it’s no sweat off of my back.
There’s a lot of good that could come from it.
A little bit of bad thrown in.

Some of the things:
A job will open...
An apartment will become available...
There’ll be more air for me...
They say there’s two girls for every guy - if you’re a man, there’ll be four chicks for me...
There’ll be more Ketel One vodka for me...
There’ll be one less idiot in line at the bank who gets up to the window without their F*#King slips filled out...
I won’t ever have to go to the store to buy my favorite Salt & Vinegar Chips
and have the clerk point at you and say, “They bought the last bag”....
You won’t help change the McDonald’s sign to a Hundred Billion Served...
You’ll never get AIDS...
You won’t have to worry about calories ever...
No more, “Hey, does this make me look fat?”...
There’ll be one less polluting human...
You won’t have to recycle... There’ll be one less car on the road...
There’ll be more Ring Dings for me...
Fifty or so chickens’ lives will be spared...
Your fingers won’t ever get red from eating pistachios...
You won’t be forced to visit your Grandparents on Sundays anymore...
No more church...
You’ll be saying, “Hey, World - Kiss My Ass!”...
No more wet dreams about Supermodels...
No more Barry Manilow... Not for a few years anyway...
Wondering “Am I a loser?” will be a thing of the past...
Say good-bye to crappy Xmas presents from Aunts and Uncles...
You won’t have to suffer through a Motley Crue reunion...
F*#K flossing and brushing...
You’ll never lose sleep over a pregnancy scare...
Adios, Acne...
Worrying whether you fit in or not won’t be on your brain...
See ya later, homework...
You’ll never have to sit through another movie brought to you by the creators of South Park...
School’s out forever....
No more paying bills...
You won’t have to do chores...

You won’t be able to run over toads with the lawnmower though...
You’ll also miss McDonald’s French Fries...
Bugs Bunny...
The amazing electrifying feeling that surges through your body when you kiss someone for the first time...
You won’t be able to watch the letterbox director’s cut of Jaws...
Candy...
Living above ground...
Pudding crust...
You’ll miss the rush of getting your first apartment...
Getting to the point in your life where you can tell your parents to
“F*#K Off! I gotta make my own mistakes, you did”...
You’ll miss sex - you’ll miss thinking about it, looking for it,
sex by yourself, sex with a partner, sex with multiple partners...
No more summer nights that seem to go on forever... Roller coasters....
Naming your kid the name you always wanted...
Making a difference in the world...
You’ll miss the experience and pleasure of Hallucinogenics...
Watching your neighbor’s wife change clothes with her blinds open...
A lifetime of masturbating...
Watching your favorite team sweep the series...
Music, you will definitely miss music...
Trying to sneak into your house drunk - three hours past your curfew...
You’ll miss the blaze and glory of the 4th of July fireworks...
The taste of Captain Crunch...
If you’re a boy, you’ll miss the feeling the first time you reach up a girl’s shirt...
If you’re a girl, the feeling the first time you reach down a boy’s pants...
You’ll miss your favorite coat...
Waffles with whipped cream and strawberries...
Beating your friends at video games...
You won’t be around to see what shape and color the new marshmallow in Lucky Charms will be...
You’ll miss the feeling you get when reminiscing about your first love - thirty years after the fact...
The joy of giving and receiving at Christmas...
Skinny dipping...
Getting stoned, reading Green Eggs & Ham, and eating like a horse that got loose in the grain bin...
Flying cars...
Hey, you were born, finish what you started!

I wait for you
I don't know why
all I know is I can't hide.
at this temperature you could take over my mind
like gossamer, you softly touch.
he draws me in, I'm powerless.
he possesses an enchantment.

tell me I'm forgiven.
he calls, dont know how I fell under his spell.
lately I've been driven, he smiles, an enchantment
I wait for you.
I'm mesmerised, this love is like a potion in disguise.
I'd tightrope walk with a blindfold on my eyes.
I can't escape, or so it seems.
I'd run away, he's in my dreams.
he possesses an enchantment.

tell me I'm forgiven.
he calls, dont know how I fell under his spell.
lately Ive been driven.
he smiles, an enchantment.
it's the kind of sleepwalk that never ends.
a type of loan with no dividends.
it's a parlour game where youre giving chase.
guess it could be called an acquired taste.
I know, he knows, he calls, I go, I know.
this could be an enchantment.

why don't you tell me I'm forgiven?
he calls, don't know how I fell under his spell.
I'm forgiven... lately I've been driven.
he smiles and I give in.
- an enchantment.

When you're down and troubled
and you need a helping hand
and nothing, no nothing is going right.
Close your eyes and think of me
and soon I will be there
to brighten up even your darkest nights.

You just call out my name,
and you know whereever I am
I'll come running,
to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,
all you have to do is call
and I'll be there, yes I will.
You've got a friend.

Move yourself
You always live your life
Never thinking of the future
Prove yourself
You are the move you make
Take your chances win or loser

See yourself
You are the steps you take
You and you - and that's the only way

Shake - shake yourself
You're every move you make
So the story goes

Owner of a lonely heart
Owner of a lonely heart
Much better than - a
Owner of a broken heart
Owner of a lonely heart

Say - you don't want to chance it
You've been hurt so before

Watch it now
The eagle in the sky
How he dancin' one and only
You - lose yourself
No not for pity's sake
There's no real reason to be lonely
Be yourself
Give your free will a chance
You've got to want to succeed

Owner of a lonely heart
Owner of a lonely heart
Much better than - a
Owner of a broken heart
Owner of a lonely heart

Owner of a lonely heart

After my own decision
They confused me so
My love said never question your will at all
In the end you've got to go
Look before you leap
And don't you hesitate at all - no no
Owner of a lonely heart

Owner of a lonely heart
Owner of a lonely heart
Much better than - a
Owner of a broken heart
Owner of a lonely heart
(repeat)

Owner of a lonely heart

Sooner or later each conclusion
Will decide the lonely heart
It will excite it will delight
It will give a better start

Don't deceive your free will at all
Don't deceive your free will at all
Don't deceive your free will at all
Just receive it

I hope all my days will be lit by your face
I hope all the years will hold tight our promises
I dont want to be old and sleep alone
An empty house is not a home
I dont want to be old and feel afraid

I dont want to be old and sleep alone
An empty house is not a home
I dont want to be old and feel afraid

And If I need anything at all
I need a place thats hidden in the deep
Where lonely angels sing you to your sleep
Though all the world is broken
I need a place where I can make my bed
A lovers lap where I can lay my head
Because the room is spinning
The day is beginning..

You spurn my natural emotions
You make me feel like dirt
And I’m hurt
And if I start a commotion
I run the risk of losing you
And that’s worse

Ever fallen in love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
You shouldn’t’ve fallen in love with

I can’t see much of a future
Unless we find out who’s to blame
What a shame
And we won’t be together much longer
Unless we realize that we are the same

Ever fallen in love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
You shouldn’t’ve fallen in love with

You disturb my natural emotions
You make me feel like dirt
And I’m hurt
And if I start a commotion
I’ll only end up losing you
And that’s worse

Ever fallen in love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
You shouldn’t’ve fallen in love with

Ever fallen in love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
Ever fallen in love
In love with someone
You shouldn’t’ve fallen in love with
Fallen in love with
Ever fallen in love with someone
You shouldn’t’ve fallen in love with

Yeah I only smoke weed when I need to
And I need to get some rest wheres the sex
I confess I burned a hole in the mattress
yes yes it was me I plead guilty
And at the count of three I pull back the duvet
Make my way to the refrigerator
One dry potato inside, no lie
Not even bread, jam
When the light above my head went BAM (bam bam)
I can't sleep, something's all over me greasy
Insomnia please release me and let me dream about
Makin' mad love to my girl on the heath
Tearin' off tights with my teeth
But there's no relief, I'm wide awake
In my kitchen, it's black and I'm lonely
Oh if I could only get some sleep
Creaky noises make my skin creep
I need to get some sleep
I can't get no sleep

Stars shining bright above you;
Night breezes seem to whisper 'I love you'.
Birds singing in the sycamore tree;
Dream a little dream of me.

Say nighty-night and kiss me;
Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me.
While I'm alone, blue as can be,
Dream a little dream of me.

Stars fading but I linger on, dear,
Still craving your kiss.
I'm longing to linger till dawn, dear,
Just saying this...

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you,
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you.
But in your dreams, whatever they be,
Dream a little dream of me.

As I walk this land with broken dreams
I have visions of many things
Love's happiness is just an illusion
Filled with sadness and confusion
What becomes of the broken hearted?
Who had love that's now departed?
I know I've got to find
Some kind of peace of mind
Maybe..

The fruits of love grow all around
But for me they come a tumblin' down
Every day heartaches grow a little stronger
I cant take this pain much longer
I walk in shadows
Searching for light
cold and alone
No comfort in sight
Hoping and praying for someone to care
Always moving and goin to where
What becomes of the broken hearted?
who had love thats now departed?
I know Ive got to find
Some kind of peace of mind
Maybe.

Im searching though I don't succeed
But someone look, there's a growing need
Oh, he is lost, there's no place for beginning
All that's left is an unhappy ending
Now what's become of the broken hearted?
Who had love that's now departed?
I know I've got to find
Some kind of peace of mind
I'll be searching everywhere
Just to find someone to care
I'll be looking everyday
I Know I'm gonna find a way
Nothings gonna stop me now
I'll find a way somehow
I'll be searching everywhere..

Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would fall down
I just stared out my window
Dreaming of a could-be
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray (I would pray)

Trying not to reach out
But when I'd try to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I pray (I would pray)
I could breakaway

Chorus:
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes til' I touch the sky
I'll make a wish, take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway
Out of the darkness and into the sun
But I wont forget all the ones that I loved
I'll take a risk
Take a chance
Make a change
And breakaway..

Wanna feel the warm breeze
Sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get onboard a fast train
Travel on a jet plane, far away (I will)
And breakaway

(chorus)

Building with a hundred floors
swinging 'round revolving doors
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me but
Gotta keep moving on, moving on
Fly away, breakaway

Highway run
Into the midnight sun
Wheels go round and round
You're on my mind
Restless hearts
Sleep alone tonight
Sendin' all my love
Along the wire

They say that the road
Ain't no place to start a family
Right down the line
It's been you and me
And lovin' a music man
Ain't always what its supposed to be
Oh girl you stand by me
I'm forever yours.... faithfully

Circus life
Under the big top world
We all need the clowns
To make us smile
Through space and time
Always another show
Wondering where I am
Lost without you

And being apart ain't easy
On this love affair
Two strangers learn to fall in love again
I get the joy
Of rediscovering you
Oh girl, you stand by me
I'm forever yours... faithfully

Cos this love's got me blind
I can't help myself
I can't break this spell
I can't even try

I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that phase
Even your emotions have an echo
In so much space

And when you're out there
Without care
Yeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much

Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy

And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice
That's my only advice

Come on now, who do you, who do you think you are
Ha Ha Ha bless your soul
Your really think your'e in control

Well, I think your crazy
I think your crazy
I think your crazy
Just like me

My heroes had a heart to lose their lives out on a limb
And all I remember is thinking, I want to be like them

Ever since I was little oh it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence I've come
And I can die when I'd done

But mabe I'm crazy
Maybe your crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably.......

Is like a world without sun
You can't look up to anyone
Without heroes
And a world without heroes
Is like a never ending race
Is like a time without a place
A pointless thing devoid of grace

Where you don't know what you're after
Or if something's after you
And you don't know why you don't know
In a world without heroes

In a world without dreams
Things are no more than they seem
And a world without heroes
Is like a bird without wings
Or a bell that never rings
Just a sad and useless thing

Where you don't know what you're after
Or if something's after you
And you don't know why you don't know

In a world without heroes
There's nothing to be
It's no place for me

"There's antimony, arsenic, aluminium, selenium,
And hydrogen and oxygen and nitrogen and rhenium,
And nickel, neodymium, neptunium, germanium,
And iron, americium, ruthenium, uranium,

Europium, zirconium, lutetium, vanadium,
And lanthanum and osmium and astatine and radium,
And gold, protactinium and indium and gallium,
And iodine and thorium and thulium and thallium.

There's yttrium, ytterbium, actinium, rubidium,
And boron, gadolinium, niobium, iridium,
And strontium and silicon and silver and samarium,
And bismuth, bromine, lithium, beryllium, and barium.

There's holmium and helium and hafnium and erbium,
And phosphorus and francium and fluorine and terbium,
And manganese and mercury, molybdenum, magnesium,
Dysprosium and scandium and cerium and caesium.

And lead, praseodymium, and platinum, plutonium,
Palladium, promethium, potassium, polonium,
And tantalum, technetium, titanium, tellurium,
And cadmium and calcium and chromium and curium.

There's sulphur, californium, and fermium, berkelium,
And also mendelevium, einsteinium, nobelium,
And argon, krypton, neon, radon, xenon, zinc, and rhodium,
And chlorine, carbon, cobalt, copper, tungsten, tin, and sodium.

These are the only ones of which the news has come to Harvard,
And there may be many others, but they haven't been Discovered."

On promenades where drunks propose to lonely arcade mannequins
Where ceremonies pause at the jeweller's shop display
Feigning casual silence in strained romantic interludes
Till they commit themselves to the muted journey home
And the pool player rests on another cue
Last nights hero picking up his dues
A honeymoon gambled on a ricochet
She's staring at the brochures at the holidays

Chalking up a name in your hometown
Standing all your mates to another round
Laughing at the world till the barman wipes away the warm wet circles
The warm wet circles

I saw teenage girls like gaudy moths
A classroom's shabby butterflies
Flirt in the glow of stranded telephone boxes
Planning white lace weddings from smeared hearts and token proclamations
Rolled from stolen lipsticks across the razored webs of glass
Sharing cigarettes with experience with her giggling jealous confidantes
She faithfully traces his name with quick bitten fingernails
Through the tears of condensation that'll cry through the night
As the glancing headlights of the last bus kiss adolescence goodbye
In a warm wet circle

Like a mothers kiss on your first broken heart, a warm wet circle
Like a bullet hole in Central Park, a warm wet circle
And I'll always surrender to the warm wet circles

She nervously undressed in the dancing beams of the Fidra lighthouse
Giving it all away before it's too late
She'll let a lovers tongue move in a warm wet circle
Giving it all away and showing no shame
She'll take a mother's kiss on her first broken heart a warm wet circle
She'll realise that she played her part in a warm wet circle

Aisha
We've only just met
And I think you ought to know
I'm a murderer
Babies need blood

I have a portrait on my wall
He's a serial killer
I thought he wouldn't escape
Aisha
He got out

We live in a cemetary
A cold and damp place
And science runs through us
Making us Gods

The rules are all Wrong
Every perversion is justified
The {something people} eat dead bodies *this line is a little unclear!!
Anything goes around here

I still want to to be human again
What am I?
What am I?
I'm a murderer

Aisha
I'm confused
Aisha
I'm vibrating

{Odd gutteral grunting gagging noises}

I'm a murderer
The Gods all suck

Is it written in the stars

Or some God's experiment
In which we have no say
In which we're given paradise

Ive had enough of cryin
Bleedin, sweatin, dyin
Hear me when I say
Gonna live my life everyday
Im gonna touch the sky
And I spread my wings and fly
I aint here to play
Im gonna live my life everyday

Walking in the footsteps of society's lies
I dont like what I see no more
Sometimes I wish that I was blind
Sometimes I wait forever
To stand out in the rain so no one see's me cryin
Trying to wash away the pain
There's things I've done I can't erase
Every night we fall from grace

When he holds you close, when he pulls you near
When he says the words you've been needing to hear
I'll wish I was him cause these words are mine
To say to you till the end of time
If you told me to cry for you, I could
If you told me to die for you, I would
Take a look at my face, there's no price I wont pay
to say these words to you

I want to lay you on a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
I want to be just as close as the holy ghost is
And lay you down on a bed of roses

When you close your eyes, know I'll be thinking about you

It's my life, It's now or never

Intoxicated by the scent of your skin
I lay awake at night
and want to climb in
Soft cool skin against my face
Takes me to a secret place

I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
and I'm the only one and I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk alone

I walk alone
I walk a...

My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone

They call me The Wild Rose
But my name was Elisa Day
Why they call me it I do not know
For my name was Elisa Day

From the first day I saw her I knew she was the one
She stared in my eyes and smiled
For her lips were the colour of the roses
That grew down the river, all bloody and wild

When he knocked on my door and entered the room
My trembling subsided in his sure embrace
He would be my first man, and with a careful hand
He wiped at the tears that ran down my face

On the second day I brought her a flower
She was more beautiful than any woman I'd seen
I said, "Do you know where the wild roses grow
So sweet and scarlet and free?"

On the second day he came with a single red rose
He said "Give me your loss and your sorrow"
I nodded my head, as I lay on the bed
"If I show you the roses, will you follow?"

On the third day he took me to the river
He showed me the roses and we kissed
And the last thing I heard was a muttered word
As he knelt (stood smiling) above me with a rock in his fist

On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow
And she lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief
And I kissed her goodbye, said, "All beauty must die"
And lent down and planted a rose tween her teeth

Huddled in the safety of a pseudo silk kimono wearing bracelets of smoke
Naked of understanding
Nicotine smears, long, long dried tears, invisible tears
Safe in my own words, learning from my own words
Cruel joke, cruel joke

Huddled in the safety of a pseudo silk kimono a morning mare rides
In the starless shutters of my eyes
The spirit of a misplaced childhood is rising to speak his mind
To this orphan of heartbreak, disillusioned and scarred
A refugee, refugee

Tain't No Sin, Words by Edgar Leslie, Music by Walter Donaldson

Dancing may do this and that, and help you take off lots of fat.
But I'm no friend of dancing when it's hot.
So if you are a dancing fool, who loves to dance but can't keep cool,
Bear in mind the idea that I've got.

When it gets too hot for comfort
and you can't get ice cream cones,
Tain't no sin
to take off your skin
and dance around in your bones.

When the lazy syncopation of the music softly moans,
Tain't no sin to take off your skin and dance around in your bones.

The polar bears aren't green up in Greenland, they've got the right idea.
They think it's great to refrigerate while we all cremate down here.
Just be like those Bamboo Babies, in the South Sea tropic zones,
Tain't no sin to take off your skin and dance around in your bones.


When you're calling up your sweetie in those hot house telephones,
Tain't no sin to take off your skin and dance around in your bones.
When you're on a crowded dance floor, near those red hot saxophones,
Tain't no sin to take off your skin and dance around in your bones.

Just take a look at the girls while they're dancing.
Notice the way that they're dressed.
They wear silken clothes without any hose
and nobody knows the rest.
If a gal wears X-ray dresses, and shows everything she owns,
Tain't no sin to take off your skin and dance around in your bones.

version by Chris Barber and Ottilie Patterson is very danceable.

Squeeze and please that person, give 'em all your love
Signify your feelings with every gentle caress
Because it's so important to have that special somebody

Like a flash of light in an endless night
Life is trapped between two black entities
'Cause when you trust someone
Illusion has begun
No way to prepare
Impending despair

Did one say so cruel
'Tis better to love than lose
Ignorance is bliss
Wish not knew your kiss
So many times been burned
This lesson goes unlearned
Remember desire only fuels the fire
Liar!

Betwixed birth and death
Every breath regret
I pity the living
Envy for the dead
Emotionally stunned
In defense - I'm numb
I'd rather not care then to be aware
Be scared

I don't need love

Are a thousand tears worth a single smile?
When you give an inch, will they take a mile?
Longing for the past but dreading the future
If not being used, well then you're a user and a loser

World renowned failure at both death and life
Given nothingness, purgatory blight
To run and hide, a cowardly procedure
Options exhausted, except for anesthesia
Anesthesia

I don't feel anything

Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you I learned to play on the safe side so I dont get hurt
Because of you I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you I am afraid

I lose my way and its not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry because you know thats weakness in your eyes
Im forced to fake a smile, a laugh, everyday of my life
My heart cant possibly break, when it wasnt even whole to start with

I watched you die, I heard you cry, every night in your sleep
I was so young you should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else you just saw your pain
and now I cry in the middle of the night for the same damn thing...

Since i'm interested in baking I thought it quite apt :wink:

Two Tablespoons of cinnamon, and 2 or 3 eggwhites
A-Half a stick of butter, meeeelted..
Stick it all in a bowl baby, Stir it with a wooden spoon
Mix in a Cup of Flour, you'll be in heaven soon
Say everybody have you seen my balls?
They're big and salty and brown
If you ever need a quick Pick-me-up
Just stick my balls in your mouth!
Ooh, suck on my chocolate salty balls,
Stick em in your mouth and suck em!
Suck on my Chocolate Salty balls
They're packed full of vitamins, and good for you,
So suck on My balls!

Quarter cup of unsweeted chocolate, and half cup of brandy
Then throw in a bag or two of sugar, and just a pinch of vanilla
Grease up the cookiesheet, cos I hate when my balls stick
Then Preheat the oven to 350°(tree-fitty), and give that spoon a lick
Say everybody have you seen my balls?
They're big and salty and brown
If you ever need a quick Pick-me-up
Just stick my balls in your mouth...
Ooh, Suck on my chocolate salty balls
Stick em in your mouth and suck em!
Suck on my Chocolate Salty balls
they're packed full of goodness, high in Fiber
Suck on My balls!

[sniff sniff] Hey, wait a minute, what's that smell?
Smells like something burning
Well, that don't confront me none
As long as I get my rent paid on the Friday.
Baby you'd better get back in the Kitchen..
Cos i've gotta Sneaking Suspicion..
Oh man baby, baby! You just burnt my balls!

Someone help me, my balls are on fire!
Get some ice baby! My balls are Burning!
Give some water, pour some water on me!
My Balls are burning!
Oh my goodness, Blow on em, Blow on em, do something!
Ooh, suck on my chocolate salty balls
Put em in your mouth and suck em!
Suck on my Chocolate Salty balls
Put em out baby, Blow em!
Suck on my balls, baby! Suck on my balls Baby!
Suck on my red hot, salty, chocolate balls
Put em out baby, hoo, hoo
Suck on my balls...

It's OBVIOUSLY a recipe in the form of song :)

Mr Beowulf will have no trouble recognising this tender love song.

I hold your hand in mine, dear. I bring it to my lips.
I take a healthy bite from your dainty fingertips...

My joy would be complete dear, if you were only here.
But still I keep your hand as a precious souvenir.

The night you died, I cut it off. I really don't know why.
For each time that I kiss it, I get bloodstains on my tie....

I'm sorry now I killed you, for our love was something fine.
But 'till they come to get me, I will hold your hand in mine.

As promised, some of my favourite lyrics from Avenue Q, to give you an idea...

It Sucks to be Me:

"What do you do with a BA in English?
What is my life going to be?
Four years of college and plenty of knowledge
Have earnt me this useless degree.
I can't pay the bills yet, cos I have no skills yet
The world is a big scary place
But somehow I can't shake the feeling I might make
A difference to the human race."

"You do such anal things as ironing your underwear"

"I come into this country for opportunities,
Try to work in Chinese restaurants but I am Japanese"

"This is real life"
"You're gonna love it :wink:"

Everyone's a Little Bit Racist:

"What you talking about Kate? You were telling a black joke!"
"Well sure Gary, but lots of people tell black jokes"
"I don't."
"Of course you don't, you're black! But I bet you tell Polish jokes, right?"
"Well sure I do, those stupid Polish."

"Bigotry has never been exclusively white
If we all could just admit
That we are racist, a little bit
Maybe it would help us get along."

Mix Tape

"He likes me, I think he likes me
But does he like me like me, like I like him?"

"Do you mind if I use your bathroom"
...a little later
"You might wanna not go in there for a while..."

There is Life Outside Your Apartment:

"There's a girl passing by..."

"No I think it's a guy."

The More You Ruv Someone:

"Love"
"Love"
"And hate"
"And hate"
"They like two brothers"
"Brothers"
"Who go on a date"
"Who... what?"
"Where one of them goes,
Other one follows
You inviting love
He also bringing sorrows"
"Ah, yes"

Schadenfreude:

"The world needs people like you and me
Who've been knocked around by fate.
'Cause when people see us, they don't want to be us,
And that makes them feel great."

For Now:

"For now we're healthy.
For now we're employed.
For now we're happy
If not overjoyed.
And we'll accept the things we cannot avoid
For now..."

"Don't stress, relax,
Let life roll off your backs
Except for death and paying taxes,
Everything in life is only for now!"

Take away the sensation inside
Bitter sweet migraine in my head
Its like a throbbing toothache of the mind
I can't take this feeling anymore

Drain the pressure from the swelling
This sensations overwhelming
Give me a long kiss goodnight
and everything will be alright
Tell me that I won't feel a thing
So give me Novacaine

I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But its home to me and I walk alone
I walk this lonely street
On the boulevard of broken dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone

My shadow's only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
till then I walk alone

Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends

Here comes the rain again, falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again, Becoming who we are

As my memory rest, but never forgets what I lost
Wake me up, when September end..

here's one I'm listening to just now.. it's quite short so it'll probably be finished by the time I end this sentence .. erm.. no .. not yet... .. ok it is now!

"What a lot of fun
You guys have been real swell
And there's not a one who can say
This ended well
All those secrets
You've been concealing
Say you're happy now,
Once more with feeling
Now I gotta run
See you all in hell"

It's a quite bluesy little number and incredibly geeky too ;) rep for the first person who who's where it's from ;)

well done..
Still on the same album.. (on random play.. a bit odd with the songs coming out of sync!)

"Why’d you run away?
Don’t you like my… style?

Why don’t you come and play?
I guarantee a great big smile.

I come from the imagination
And I’m here strictly by your invocation.
So what do you say—
Why don’t we dance a while?
I’m the how to swing.
I’m the twist and shout.
When you gotta sing,
When you gotta let it out.
You call me and I come a-runnin’.
I turn the music on, I bring the fun in.
Now we’re partyin’, that’s what it’s all about.

’Cause I know what you feel, girl.
I know just what you feel, girl.
DAWN
So you’re like a good demon? Bringing the fun in?
SWEET
All these melodies, they go on too long.
Then that energy starts to come on way too strong.
All those hearts lay open— that must sting.
Plus some customers just start combusting.
That’s the penalty when life is but a song.
You brought me down into this town
So when we blow this scene,
Back we will go to my kingdom below
And you will be my queen.

’Cause I know what you feel, girl.
DAWN
No, you see, you and me
Wouldn’t be very regal.
SWEET
I’ll make it real, girl.
DAWN
What I mean, I’m fifteen
So this queen thing’s illegal.
SWEET
I can bring whole cities to ruin
And still have time to get a soft-shoe in.
DAWN
Well, that’s great but I’m late
And I’d hate to delay her.
SWEET
Something’s cooking, I’m at the griddle.
I bought Nero his very first fiddle.
DAWN
She’ll get pissed if I’m missed,
See my sister’s the Slayer.
SWEET
The Slayer?
DAWN
Uh-huh.
SWEET
Find her. Tell her… tell her anything. Just get her here. I
want to see the Slayer burn.
SWEET
Now we’re partyin’.
That’s what it’s all about."

One of my favourite songs ever (being serious on this thread for once) - dancing to this with the right person can be ... beyond words.



Now that we're here let's take our time
No need to hurry anymore
There's no other place I'd rather be
No other face I'd rather see than yours.

Hold me as only you can do
And dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love.

I'll follow you when you want to lead
You'll follow me sometimes too
There's no other body I'd rather hold
My heart soul and body been waiting on you

Hold me as only you can do
And dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love.

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
You been out ridin' fences for so long now
Oh, you're a hard one
I know that you got your reasons
These things that are pleasin' you
Can hurt you somehow

Don't you draw the queen of diamonds boy
She'll beat you if she's able
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet

Now it seems to me, some fine things
Have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones that you can't get

Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no younger
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
And freedom, oh freedom well, that's just some people talkin'
Your prison is walking through this world all alone

Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
You're losin' all your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away ?
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences, open the gate
It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you
(let sombody love you)

You better let somebody love you
before it's too late

Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...

If you smile
With your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just...

Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just... Smile

The first time ever I saw your face, I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave, To the dark and the empty skies
~
The first time ever I kissed your mouth, I felt the earth move in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird, that was there at my command

I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had style
And so I came to see him, to listen for a while
And there he was a young man, A stranger to my eyes..
~
He sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair
and then he looked right through me, as if I wasnt there..

The closer I get to you, the more you'll make me see
By giving me all you've got, your love has captured me
~
Over and over again, I'll try to tell myself that we could never be more than friends
And all the while inside I knew it was real, the way you make me feel...

Warm sleepy moments waking up next to you
Feeling you close by by side
Nothing on earth has ever felt better
Than the feelings I've felt deep inside
~
Sometimes it seems that I never lost you
And that your not really gone
Cause I have this dream, this wonderful dream
And it just goes on and on
~
And if ever I get to see you again
Maybe this time it will work out alright
Maybe this time we won't say goodbye
But only goodnight
With a love that won't end
If ever I see you again....

Donne-moi tes mains pour l'inquiétude
Donne-moi tes mains dont j'ai tant rêvé
Dont j'ai tant rêvé dans ma solitude
Donne-moi tes mains que je sois sauvé

Lorsque je les prends * mon pauvre piège
De paume et de peur de hâte et d'émoi
Lorsque je les prends comme une eau de neige
Qui fuit de partout dans mes mains * moi

Sauras-tu jamais ce qui me traverse
Qui me boulverse et qui m'envahit
Sauras-tu jamais ce qui me transperse
Ce que j'ai trahi quand j'ai tressailli

Ce que dit ainsi le profond langage
Ce parler muet des sens animaux
Sans bouche et sans yeux miroir sans image
Ce frémir d'aimer qui n'a pas de mots

Sauras-tu jamais ce que les doigts pensent
D'une proie entre eux un instant tenue
Sauras-tu jamais ce que leur silence
Un éclair aura connu d'inconnu

Donne-moi tes mains que mon coeur s'y forme
S'y taise le monde au moins un moment
Donne-moi tes mains que mon âme dorme
Que mon âme y dorme éternellement

Louis Aragon, Les mains d'Elsa

sorry for those who don't understand french, but this is my favorite piece of poesy and I thought it should be there...

the poet speaks to his love Elsa and ask her to give him her hands ...

it says at the beginning

Give me your hands for the fear
Give me your hands of which I have dreamt so much (english grammar doesn't work here, can't really translate exactly)Of which I have dreamt so much in my solitude
Give-me your hands and save me

and at the end:

Give me your hands to shape my heart
Where the world will be quiet for a moment
Give me your hands where my soul can sleep
Where my soul can sleep eternally

the musicality of the whole poem is just incredible... :awe:

thought id change the mood from love songs and go all lighthearted on you all!

thanks to nicola for this one - that was one funny night - with this and 'save a horse ride a cowboy!' :grin: :whistle: :grin: :whistle: :grin:


She showed up at my house half past nine
low-cut dress with a bottle of wine
She said this will be a night you won't forget

She poured us some drinks to get us into the mood
I reached for the lights, she reached for my tunes
She pulled out that Red Headed Stranger, I stood up and said

Don't touch my Willie
I don't know you that well
Help yourself to some Haggard or some Jones
Hell, or anybody else
I don't know what you heard
I ain't that kind of guy
Yeah so don't touch my Willie,
We'll get a long just fine

She said she never met a man like me in her life
Who wouldn't share his Willie on the very first night
I said it's nothing personal, don't take it so hard

I don't pull out my Willie for just anyone
There's a lot of other records that you can choose from
So let me make myself clear before you go too far

Don't touch my Willie
I don't know you that well
Help yourself to some Haggard or some Jones
Hell, or anybody else
I don't know what you heard
I ain't that kind of guy
Yeah so don't touch my Willie,
We'll get a long just fine

Keep your hands off my Willie,
We'll get along just fine

"Sit on my face and tell me that you love me
I'll sit on your face and tell you I love you too
I love to hear you oralize
When I'm between your thighs
You blow me away.

Sit on my face and let my lips embrace you
I'll sit on your face and then I'll love you truly
Life can be fine if we both sixty nine
If we sit on our faces
In all sorts of places
And play till we're blown away."

Ce soir, la lune rêve avec plus de paresse;
Ainsi qu'une beauté, sur de nombreux coussins,
Qui d'une main distraite et légère caresse
Avant de s'endormir le contour de ses seins,

Sur le dos satiné des molles avalanches,
Mourante, elle se livre aux longues pâmoisons,
Et promène ses yeux sur les visions blanches
Qui montent dans l'azur comme des floraisons.

Quand parfois sur ce globe, en sa langueur oisive,
Elle laisse filer une larme furtive,
Un poète pieux, ennemi du sommeil,

Dans le creux de sa main prend cette larme pâle,
Aux reflets irisés comme un fragment d'opale,
Et la met dans son coeur loin des yeux du soleil.

you're telling me they do..

"Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii've got two legs
from my hips to the ground
and when I walk they move around
and when I lift them they climb the stairs
amd when I shave them the ain't got hairs"

or...


"Half a bee, philosophically,
Must, ipso facto, half not be.
But half the bee has got to be
Vis a vis, its entity. D'you see?

But can a bee be said to be
Or not to be an entire bee
When half the bee is not a bee
Due to some ancient injury?

Singing...

La dee dee, one two three,
Eric the half a bee.
A B C D E F G,
Eric the half a bee.

There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
And when she gets there she knows if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for

There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
And you know sometimes words have two meanings
In the tree by the brook there's a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven

There's a feeling I get when I look to the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who stand looking

And it's whispered that soon, if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forest will echo with laughter

And it makes me wonder.....

Etc.,

Stairway to Heaven..

SHOULD I STAY OR SHOULD I GO

Darling you gotta let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
If you say that you are mine
I’ll be here ’til the end of time
So you got to let know
Should I stay or should I go?

Always tease tease tease
Siempre – coqueteando y engañando
You’re happy when I’m on my knees
Me arrodillo y estas feliz
One day is fine, next is black
Un dia es bien el otro negro
So if you want me off your back
Alrededor de tu espalda
Well come on and let me know

Should I stay or should I go?
¿Me debo ir o quedarme?

Should I stay or should I go now?
Should I stay or should I go now?
If I go there will be trouble
An’ if I stay it will be double
So come on and let me know

This indecision’s bugging me
Esta indecision me molesta
If you don’t want me, set me free
Si no me quieres, librame
Exactly who’m I’m supposed to be
Dime que tengo que ser
Don’t you know which clothes even fit me?
¿sabes que ropas me quedan?
Come on and let me know
Me tienes que decir
Should I cool it or should I blow?
¿me debo ir o quedarme?

Should I stay or should I go now?
yo me frio o lo sufro
If I go there will be trouble
Si me voy - va a haber peligro
And if I stay it will be double
Si me quedo es doble
So you gotta let me know
Me tienes que decir
Should I stay or should I go?
yo me frio o lo sufro

Could make me be true,

And even be glad, just to be sad - thinking of you

Some others I've seen,
Might never be mean

Houses iced in whitewash guard a pale shore-line
Cornered by the cactus and the pine.
Here I wander where sweet sage and strange herbs grow
Down a sun-baked crumpled stony road.

Dusty wheels leaning rusting in the sun;
Snuff brown walls where Spanish lizards run.
Here I'm shadowed by a dragon fig tree's fan
Ringed by ants and musing over man.

I'll unwind my old strings while the sun shine down
Won't climb any high thing while the sun shine.
Formentera Lady sing your song for me
Formentera Lady sweet lover.

Lamplights glows on old guitars the travellers strum;
Insence children dance to an Indian drum.
Here Odysseus charmed for dark Circe fell,
Still her perfume lingers still her spell.

Time's grey hand won't catch me while the sun shine down
Untie and unlatch me while the stars shine.
Formentera Lady dance your dance for me
Formentera Lady dark lover.

Finished with my woman 'cause she couldn't help me with my mind
People think I'm insane becuase I am frowning all the time
All day long I think of things but nothing seems to satisfy
Think I'll lose my mind if I don't find something to pacify

Can you help me occupy my brain?
oh yeah

I need someone to show me the things in life that I can't find
I can't see the things that make true happiness, I must be blind

Make a joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry
Happiness I cannot feel and love to me is so unreal

And so as you hear these words telling you now of my state
I tell you to enjoy life, I wish I could, but it's too late

Summer days are coming...
Sun-loving times begin ...
I want to surf you baby,
til' the waves come breaking in

Put your old love aside
that is'nt natures plan
and soon you'll find that your beside
beside your seaside man

The sun makes it a scorcher
I want to shade you in the sand
love you and debauch yer
be your loving seaside man

dream who you will be beside
when you're beside the sea
and soon you'll find that you're beside
beside yourself with glee

Put me on like sunscreen
wear me like a tan
I want to swim in you like water
be your loving seaside man

Put your old love aside

and soon you'll find that your beside

Ah when the sun beats down and burns the tar up on the roof
And the street's so hot you're hoping this whole town is fireproof

Under the boardwalk
Down by the sea (oh yeah)
I'm on a blanket with my baby
That's where I'll be

And when the sun goes down
We'll take a walk along the strand
And as the tide goes out
We'll write "I love you" right there in the sand

Oh I want to go

And when the moon is out
And it's finally cooling down
Don't have to look too far
Because my girl and I just might be found

Oh oh ohhhh

Down by the sea (oh yeah)
On a blanket with my baby

Just you and me

Boardwalk (I wanna take you girl under the)
Boardwalk (I'm gonna take you girl under the)
Boardwalk (I wanna take you girl under the)
Boardwalk (I'm gonna take you girl under the)
Boardwalk (I wanna take you girl under)

Your stare swallows me
And I can hardly breathe
I feel it's dangerous,
Could be deadly
Somehow I'm willing to do the things you want
Take me in your arms
Spoon-feed my heart and

Drip by drip
I'll take it all
Sip by sip
I guess that it's
Make or break
Boy here and now

We're caught in a moment
And I won't let it go
I am falling deeper, losing my control
Involved in a feeling
Like the blink of a eye
And the silence it belongs to you and I

Broke through barriers
And passed a state of mind
I'm not scared no more
It feels divine
So take me in
And catch me when I fall
I'm waiting on the edge
Uncut my soul

Snip by snip
I'm oozing it
Bit by bit
I'm taking it
Step by step
Boy here and now

We're caught in a moment
And I won't let it go
I am falling deeper, losing my control
Involved in a feeling
Like the blink of a eye
And the silence it belongs to you and I

It's funny how lyrics to very familiar songs can sometimes be completely ignored, until you see them written down, and discover that the lyrics are much better than the song!

The best time I ever had
When you were mine said to myself to keep you near
Never let you go, but trains and boats and airplanes
Took me away from you

Away from all the love we had
From all the things we shared
And tell me, what can I do?
You're always on my mind

If I could sing my song to you
I'd tell you how my heart is broken too
From any corner of the world, I'd let you know
I'll always be your girl
I'm still in love with you

Lonely days and lonely nights
Since you've been gone I miss your touch
I miss your smile always by my side
I think about the times we had
And I wonder why, oh why

Boy, you had to steal my heart
When we were a world apart
So tell me baby what should I do?
Your'e always on my mind

If I could sing my song to you
I'd tell you how my heart is broken too
From any corner of the world I'd let you know
I'll always be your girl
I'm still in love with you

Think that you've worked it out

Right out of the blue
Something happens to you
To throw you off course
and then you

Yeah you breakdown
Well don't you breakdown

It's just a ride, it's just a ride
no need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you round and round
Sometimes you're up

It's just a ride, it's just a ride
don't be scared
don't hide your eyes
It may feel so real inside
but don't forget it's just a ride

Truth, we don't wanna hear
It's too much to take
Don't like to feel out of control
So we make our plans
Ten times a day
And when they don't go
our way we

Well don't you breakdown
Listen to me

It's just a ride, it's just a ride

It's just a ride, it's just a ride
don't be scared
don't hide your eyes
It may feel so real inside
but don't forget it's just a ride

Slowly, oh so very slowly
except that
there's no getting off
So live it, just gotta go with it
coz this ride's, never gonna stop

Breakdown
Don't you breakdown
No need to breakdown
No need at all
Because

It's just a ride, it's just a ride
no need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you all around
Sometimes you're up

It may feel so real inside

We walk the narrow path
beneath the smoking skies
Sometimes you can barely tell the difference
between darkness and light
Do you have faith in what we believe?
The truest test is when we cannot
when we cannot see
I hear pounding feet in the
in the streets below and the
and the women crying and the
and the children know that there
that there's something wrong
and it's hard to believe that
love will prevail
It won't rain all the time
The sky won't fall forever
And though the night seems long
your tears won't fall forever
When I'm lonely
I lie awake at night
and I wish you were here
I miss you
Can you tell me is there something more to believe in?
Or is this all there is?
And the pounding feet in the
In the streets below and the
And the window breaks and
And a woman falls, there's
There's something wrong, it's
It's so hard to believe that
love will prevail
It won't rain all the time
The sky won't fall forever
And though the night seems long
your tears won't fall
your tears won't fall
your tears won't fall
forever
Last night I had a dream
You came into my room
you took me into your arms
Whispering and kissing me
and telling me to still believe
But then the emptiness
of a burning sea against which we see
our darkest of sadness
Until I felt safe and warm
I fell asleep in your arms
When I awoke I cried again
for you were gone
can you hear me?
It won't rain all the time
The sky won't fall forever
And though the night seems long
your tears won't fall forever
It won't rain all the time
The sky won't fall forever
And though the night seems long
your tears won't fall
your tears won't fall
your tears won't fall
forever

I just want to feel safe in my own skin
I just want to be happy again
I just want to feel deep in my own world
But I'm so lonely
I don't even want to be with myself anymore

On a different day
If I was safe in my own skin
Then I wouldn't feel lost and so frightened
But this is today
And I'm lost in my own skin
And I'm so lonely
I don't even want to be with myself anymore

And I just say oh, oh

And I'm so lonely
I don't even want to be with myself anymore.

I will not make the same mistakes as you did
I will not let myself cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did
You fell so hard
Ive learned the hard way, to never let it get that far

Because of you, I never stray to far from the sidewalk
Because of you, I learned to play on the safe side
So I don't get hurt
Because of you, I find it hard to trust
Not only me, but everyone around me,
Because of you, I am afraid

I lose my way, And it's not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry, because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake, a smile, a laugh, every day of my life
My heart can't possibly break, When it wasn't even whole to start with

I watched you die, I heard you cry every night in your sleep
I was so young You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else, you just saw your pain
and now I cry in the middle of the night for the same damn thing

Because of you..... etc.,

di righe accennate appena
sono piccola donna
donna piccola
donna che non cresce
donna di verde acerba
non ancora cresciuta
donna di vaghe attese

sono di notte fonda
cerco ciò che non trovo
mi muovo a stento
tra fili di rosespine
piccola donna che aspetta
scintilla accesa
di luce e fuoco

Oh! Mama, Mama look there!
Your children are playing in that street again
Don't you know what happened down there?
A youth of fourteen got shot down there
The Kokane guns of Jamdown Town
The killing clowns, the blood money men
Are shooting those Washington bullets again

As every cell in Chile will tell
The cries of the tortured men
Remember Allende, and the days before,
Before the army came
Please remember Victor Jara,
In the Santiago Stadium,
Es verdad - those Washington Bullets again

And in the Bay of Pigs in 1961,
Havana fought the playboy in the Cuban sun,
For Castro is a colour,
Is a redder than red,
Those Washington bullets want Castro dead
For Castro is the colour...
...That will earn you a spray of lead

Sandinista!

For the very first time ever,
When they had a revolution in Nicaragua,
There was no interference from America
Human rights in America

Well the people fought the leader,
And up he flew...
With no Washington bullets what else could he do?
Sandinista!

'N' if you can find a Afghan rebel
That the Moscow bullets missed
Ask him what he thinks of voting Communist...
...Ask the Dalai Lama in the hills of Tibet,
How many monks did the Chinese get?
In a war-torn swamp stop any mercenary,
'N' check the British bullets in his armoury
Que?
Sandinista!

Story of my life, searching for the right
But it keeps avoiding me
Sorrow in my soul, cause it seems that wrong
Really loves my company

He's more than a man, and this is more than love
The reason that the sky is blue
The clouds are rolling in, because I'm gone again
To him I just cant be true

And I know, he knows that I'm unfaithful and it kills him inside
To know that I am happy with some other guy, I can see him dyin'

Chorus:
I don't want to do this anymore, I dont wanna be the reason why
Everytime I walk out the door, I see him die a little more inside
I don't want to hurt him anymore, I don't want to take away his life
I don't wanna be...... a murderer

I feel it in the air, as I'm doing my hair, preparing for another date
A kiss upon his cheek, as he reluctantly asks, If I'm gonna be out late
I say I won't be long, just hangin' with the girls, I lie I didn't have to tell
Because we both know, where I'm about to go, and he knows it very well

'Cause I know that he knows that I'm unfaithful, and it kills him inside
To know that I'm happy with some other guy, I can see him dyin'

Chorus:

Our love... his trust, I might as well take a gun and put it to his head
Get it over with, I don't wanna do this... anymore

Roughneck and rudeness,
We should be using, on the ones who practice wicked charms

For the sword and the stone
Bad to the bone
Battle is not over
Even when it's won
And when a child is born into this world
It has no concept
Of the tone the skin is living in

It's not a second
but 7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
I'll be waiting
I'll be waiting

J'assume les raisons qui nous poussent de changer tout,
J'aimerais qu'on oublie leur couleur pour qu'ils esperent
Beaucoup de sentiments de race qui font qu'ils desesperent
Je veux les portes grandements ouvertes,
Des amis pour parler de leur peine, de leur joie
Pour qu'ils leur filent des infos qui ne divisent pas
Changer
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay

I'll be waiting
I'll be waiting
I'll be waiting

And when a child is born into this world
It has no concept
Of the tone the skin is living in
And there's a million voices
And there's a million voices
To tell you what she should be thinking
So you better sober up for just a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting

On our own

We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads

I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see

I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

"If you think that a kiss is all in the lips
C'mon, you got it all wrong, man
And if you think that our dance was all in the hips
Oh well, then do the twist

Grab hold of the soul where the memory lingers and
Make sure to never do it with a singer
Cause he'll tell everyone in the world"

Strumming my pain with his fingers,

Singing my life with his words,

Killing me softly with this song,

I felt all flushed with fever,
Embarrassed by the crowd,
I felt he found my letters then read each one out loud.
I prayed that he would finish,
But he just kept right on-
Strumming my pain with his fingers, (One Time, one time!)
Singing my life with his words, (Two Times, two times!)
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly
With his song,
Tellin' my whole life

Do you still keep paper flowers in the bottom drawer with your Belgian lace
Taking them out every year to watch the colors fade away?
Do you still believe in fairy tales, in battlements of shining castles
Safe from the dragons that lie beneath the hill?
Are you still a Russian princess rescued by a gypsy dancer
To anyone who'll listen is that a story you still tell?
You live a life of fantasy, your diary romantic fiction
Can't you see it's hard for me, can you see what I am trying to say?

It's a gentleman's excuse me so I'll take one step to the side
Can you get it inside your head I'm tired of dancing?
For every one step forward we're taking two steps back
Can you get it inside your head I'm tired of dancing?

I know you still like old fashioned waltzes
Your reflection in the mirror that you flirt with as you glide across the floor
But if I told you the music's over would you want to hear
That your dance card is empty that there's no-one really there?

Do you still believe in Santa Claus, that there's a millionaire
Looking for your front door with a key to a life that you'd never understand?
All I have to offer is the love that I have, it's freely given
You'll see its value when you see what I've tried to say

It's a gentleman's excuse me so I'll take one step to the side
Can you get it inside your head I'm tired of dancing?
For every one step forward I'm taking two steps back
Can you get it inside your head that from this one step forward
There's no turning back?
Can you get it inside your head I'm tired of dancing?
We're finished dancing

You and I in a little toy shop
buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got
Set them free at the break of dawn
'Til one by one, they were gone
Back at base, bugs in the software
Flash the message, "Something's out there"
Floating in the summer sky
99 red balloons go by.

99 red balloons floating in the summer sky
Panic bells, it's red alert
There's something here from somewhere else
The war machine, it springs to life
Opens up one eager eye
Focusing it on the sky
As 99 red balloons go by.

99 Decision Street, 99 ministers meet
To worry, worry, super-scurry
Call out the troops now in a hurry
This is what we've waited for
This is it boys, this is war
The president is on the line
As 99 red balloons go by.

99 Kriegsminister
Streichholz und Benzinkanister
Hielten sich für schlaue Leute
Witterten schon fette Beute
Riefen: Krieg und wollten Macht
Mann, wer haette das gedacht
Dass es einmal soweit kommt
Wegen 99 Luftballons

99 dreams I have had
In every one a red balloon
It's all over and I'm standin' pretty
In the dust that was a city
If I could find a souvenir
Just to prove the world was here...
And here it is, a red balloon
I think of you and let it go.

Was dancing to this one on Saturday. Great blues track.


Put a dead cat on the railroad tracks
When the wolf bains blooming by the tressel
And get the eyeball of a rooster
And the stones from a ditch
And wash em down with bilge water
And you say you’ll never snitch
Take the buttons from a yellow jacket
The feather from a buzzard
And the blood from a bounty hunters cold black heart
Catch the tears of a widow
In a thimble made of glass
Tell your mama and papa
They can kick your ass
Poison all the water in the wishin' well
And hang all them scarecrows from a sycamore tree
Burn down all those honeymoons
Put em in a pillow case
And wait next to the switch blades
At the amusement park for me
Strangle all the christmas carols
Scratch out all your prayers
Tie em up with barbed wire
And push them down the stairs
And I’ll whittle you a pistol
For keeping nightmares of the blinds
Those sons of bitches always seem to sneak up from behind
Syphon all the gas from your daddys pickup truck
Fill up Johnny's t bird
I got a couple of bucks
Put a little perfume and ribbon in your hair
Careful that you don’t wake up the hounds
Tear a bolt of lightning
Of the side of the sky
And throw it in the cedar chest
If you want to tell me why
Bring the gear shift knob from a 49 merc
And lay down here beside me
Let me hold you in the dirt
And you’ll tremble as the flames
Tear the throat out of the night
Sink your teeth into my shoulder
Dig your nails into my back
Tell that little girl to let go of my sleeve
You’ll be a woman when I catch you
As you fall in love with me
Then with my double barrel shotgun
And a whole box of shells
We’ll celebrate the 4 of july
We’ll do 100 mph
Spendin someone elses dough
And we’ll drive all the way to Reno
On the wrong side of the road

There's a nail in the door
And there's glass on the lawn
Tacks on the floor
And the TV is on
And I always sleep with my guns when you're gone

There's a blade by the bed
And a phone in my hand
A dog on the floor
And some cash on the nightstand
When I'm all alone the dreaming stops
And I just can't stand

What should I do I'm just a little baby
What if the lights go out
And maybe and then the wind just starts to moan
Outside the door he followed me home

So goodnight moon
I want the sun
If it's not here soon
I might be done
No it won?t be too soon 'til I say goodnight moon

There's a shark in the pool
And a witch in the tree
A crazy old neighbor and he's been watching me
And there's footsteps loud and strong coming down the hall
Something's under the bed
Now it's out in the hedge
There's a big black crow sitting on my window ledge
And I hear something scratching through the wall

What should I do I'm just a little baby
What if the lights go out
And maybe and then the wind just starts to moan
Outside the door he followed me home
So goodnight moon
I want the sun
If it's not here soon
I might be done
No it won't be too soon 'til I say goodnight moon

There's a nail in the door ...
What strange lyrics, I've played that one so many times, and never noticed what the song is about! :blush:
I'd not seen your post till today, so the fact that I played it last night was pure coincidence.

I was thinking about that mad video clip of the monkey messing with tigers, and a song which is apparently important in black culture came to mind...

SAID THE SIGNIFYIN` MONKEY
TO THE LION ONE DAY,
`HEY, THERE`S A GREAT BIG ELEPHANT
DOWN THE WAY,
GOIN` `ROUND, TALKIN`,
I`M SORRY TO SAY,
ABOUT YOUR MAMA
IN A SCANDALOUS WAY.
YES, HE`S TALKIN`
`BOUT YOUR MAMA
AND YOUR GRAN`MA TOO,
AN` HE DON`T SHOW
TOO MUCH RESPECT FOR YOU.
YOU WEREN`T HERE
AN` I SURE AM GLAD,
`CAUSE WHAT HE SAID
ABOUT YOUR MAMA
MADE ME MAD!`

[Chorus]:
SIGNIFYIN` MONKEY,
STAY UP IN YOUR TREE;
YOU ARE ALWAYS LYIN`
AND SIGNIFYIN`;
BUT YOU BETTER NOT MONKEY WITH ME.

[verse 2]:
THE LION SAID,
`YEAH - WELL I`LL FIX HIM!
I'LL TEAR THAT ELEPHANT
LIMB FROM LIMB.`
THEN HE SHOOK THE JUNGLE
WITH A MIGHTY ROAR,
TOOK OFF LIKE A SHOT
FROM A FORTY-FOUR.
HE FOUND THE ELEPHANT
WHERE THE TALL GRASS GROWS
AND SAID,
`I COME TO PUNCH YOU
IN YOUR LONG NOSE!`
THE ELEPHANT LOOKED
AT THE LION IN SURPRISE
AND SAID, `BOY,
YOU BETTER GO
PICK ON SOMEBODY YOUR SIZE.`

[verse 3]:
BUT THE LION WOULDN`T LISTEN,
HE MADE A PASS,
THE ELEPHANT SLAPPED HIM
DOWN IN THE GRASS.
THE LION ROARED
AND SPRANG FROM THE GROUND
AND THAT`S WHEN THE ELEPHANT
REALLY WENT TO TOWN.
I MEAN HE WHIPPED THAT LION
FOR THE REST OF THE DAY
AND I STILL DON`T SEE HOW
THAT LION GOT AWAY.
BUT HE DRAGGED ON OFF,
MORE DEAD THAN ALIVE
AND THAT`S WHEN THAT MONKEY
STARTED HIS SIGNIFYIN` JIVE.

[Chorus]:
SIGNIFYIN` MONKEY,
STAY UP IN YOUR TREE;
YOU ARE ALWAYS LYIN`
AND SIGNIFYIN`;
BUT YOU BETTER NOT MONKEY WITH ME.

[verse 4]:
THE MONKEY LOOKED DOWN AND SAID,
`OOOOOEEE!
WHAT IS THIS BEAT-UP MESS I SEE?
IS THAT YOU, LION?
HA, HA, DO TELL,
MAN, HE WHIPPED YOUR HEAD
TO A FARE-THEE-WELL,
GIVE YOU A BEATIN`
THAT WAS ROUGH ENOUGH
AND YOU SUPPOSED TO BE `KING OF THE JUNGLE`
- AIN`T THAT SOME STUFF.
YOU BIG OVERGROWN PUSSYCAT,
DON`T YOU ROAR,
OR I`LL HOP DOWN THERE
AND WHIP YOU SOME MORE!`

[verse 5]:
THE MONKEY GOT TO LAUGHIN`
AND JUMPIN` UP AND DOWN,
BUT HIS FOOT MISSED THE LIMB
AND HE PLUNGED TO THE GROUND.
THE LION WAS ON HIM
WITH ALL FOUR FEET,
GONNA GRIND THAT MONKEY
TO HAMBURGER MEAT.
THE MONKEY LOOKED UP
WITH TEARS IN HIS EYES,
AND SAID, `PLEASE, MISTER LION,
I APOLOGIZE!
I MEANT NO HARM,
PLEASE LEMME GO
AND I`LL TELL YOU SOMETHIN`
YOU REALLY NEED TO KNOW.`

[Chorus]:
SIGNIFYIN` MONKEY,
STAY UP IN YOUR TREE;
YOU ARE ALWAYS LYIN`
AND SIGNIFYIN`;
BUT YOU BETTER NOT MONKEY WITH ME.

[verse 6]:
THE LION STEPPED BACK
TO HEAR WHAT HE`D SAY
AN` THAT MONKEY SCAMPERED UP A TREE
AND GOT AWAY.
`WHAT I WANNA TELL YA,`
THE MONKEY HOLLERED THEN,
`IS IF YOU FOOL WITH ME,
I`LL SIC THE ELEPHANT ON YOU AGAIN!`
THE LION JUST SHOOK HIS HEAD
AND SAID, `YOU JIVE......
IF YOU AND YOUR MONKEY CHILDREN
WANNA KEEP ALIVE,
UP IN THEM TREES
IS WHERE YOU BETTER STAY!`
AND THAT`S WHERE THEY ARE
TO THIS VERY DAY.

[Chorus]:
SIGNIFYIN` MONKEY,
STAY UP IN YOUR TREE;
YOU ARE ALWAYS LYIN`
AND SIGNIFYIN`;
BUT YOU BETTER NOT,
NO, YOU BETTER NOT,
YOU ARE ALWAYS LYIN`,
SIGNIFYIN`,
BUT YOU BETTER NOT
MONKEY WITH ME!

The lunatic is on the grass.
The lunatic is on the grass.
Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs.
Got to keep the loonies on the path.

The lunatic is in the hall.
The lunatics are in my hall.
The paper holds their folded faces to the floor
And every day the paper boy brings more.

And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
And if there is no room upon the hill
And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.

The lunatic is in my head.
The lunatic is in my head
You raise the blade, you make the change
You re-arrange me 'til I'm sane.
You lock the door
And throw away the key
There's someone in my head but it's not me.

And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear
You shout and no one seems to hear.
And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.

Bullets from your soul.

Lost all means of self control.

a long one here.. and not really a song as such. Spoken to a musical background. however was listening to this one on the bus this morning and it struck a few chords, jangled a few neurons and made me think..

Everybody's Free (to Wear Sunscreen) - Baz Luhrmann

Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of '97
Wear Sunscreen

If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be
it. The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by
scientists whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable
than my own meandering experience
I will dispense this advice now.

Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth;
oh never mind; you will not understand the power and
beauty of your youth until they have faded.
But trust me, in 20 years you'll look back at photos of yourself
and recall in a way you can't grasp now how much possibility lay before
you and how fabulous you really looked
You are not as fat as you imagine.

Don't worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as
effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum.
The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that
never crossed your worried mind;
the kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday.

Do one thing everyday that scares you

Sing!

Don't be reckless with other people's hearts,
don't put up with people who are reckless with yours.

Floss!

Don't waste your time on jealousy;
sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind
the race is long, and in the end, it's only with yourself.

Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults;
if you succeed in doing this, tell me how.

Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements.

Stretch!

Don't feel guilty if you don't know what
you want to do with your life
the most interesting people I know didn't know at 22
what they wanted to do with their lives,
some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still don't.

Get plenty of calcium.

Be kind to your knees, you'll miss them when they're gone.

Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't,
maybe you'll have children,maybe you won't,
maybe you'll divorce at 40,
maybe you'll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary
what ever you do, don't congratulate yourself too much
or berate yourself either
your choices are half chance, so are everybody else's.
Enjoy your body,
use it every way you can
don't be afraid of it, or what other people think of it,
it's the greatest instrument you'll ever own..

Dance!
even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room.

Read the directions, even if you don't follow them.

Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly.

Get to know your parents,
you never know when they'll be gone for good.

Be nice to your siblings;
they are the best link to your past
and the people most likely to stick with you in the future.

Understand that friends come and go,
but for the precious few you should hold on.
Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and lifestyle
because the older you get,
the more you need the people you knew when you were young.

Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard;
live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.

Travel.

Accept certain inalienable truths,
prices will rise,
politicians will philander,
you too will get old,
and when you do you'll fantasise that when you were young
prices were reasonable,
politicians were noble
and children respected their elders.

Respect your elders.

Don't expect anyone else to support you.
Maybe you have a trust fund,
maybe you have a wealthy spouse;
but you never know when either one might run out.

Don't mess too much with your hair,
or by the time you're 40, it will look 85.

Be careful whose advice you buy, but,
be patient with those who supply it.
Advice is a form of nostalgia,
dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal,
wiping it off,
painting over the ugly parts and recycling
it for more than it's worth.

But trust me on the sunscreen

The sun has left and forgotten me
It’s dark, I cannot see
Why does this rain pour down
I’m gonna drown
In a sea
Of deep confusion

Somebody told me, I don’t know who
Whenever you are sad and blue
And you’re feelin’ all alone and left behind
Just take a look inside and you will find

You gotta hold on, hold on through the night
Hang on, things will be all right
Even when it’s dark
And not a bit of sparkling
Sing-song sunshine from above
Spreading rays of sunny love

Just hang on, hang on to the vine
Stay on, soon you’ll be divine
If you start to cry, look up to the sky
Something’s coming up ahead
To turn your tears to dew instead

And so I hold on to his advice
When change is hard and not so nice
You listen to your heart the whole night through
Your sunny someday will come one day soon to you

Aleks

Seize upon that moment long ago
One breath away and there you will be
So young and carefree
Again you will see
That place in time...so gold

Steal away into that way back when
You thought that all would last forever
But like the weather
Nothing can ever...and be in time
Stay gold

But can it be
When we can see
So vividly
A memory
And yes you say
So must the day
Too, fade away
And leave a ray of sun
So gold

Life is but a twinkling of an eye
Yet filled with sorrow and compassion
though not imagined
All things that happen
Will age too old
Though gold

This just sums me up I think

"Who Am I"

Sometimes you know you push me so hard
I don't know how I feel
You almost make me doubt I feel at all

It's not as though I always listen
But there's just so much I don't hear
Maybe I'll never be what you want
I know that all you're asking for
Is a little place in my heart
But I don't find it easy to give

Maybe I get a little selfish sometimes
Why shouldn't I?
I used to say I love you
But would it make a difference this time?

[Chorus]
And who am I to tell you that I would never let you down
That no-one else could love you half as much as I do now
And who am I to tell you I'll always catch you when you fall
Well I, I wouldn't be myself at all
I wouldn't be myself at all, at all.

I always find a reason why I didn't put you first
It's not that complicated I know
I really hate it when you shake your head like this ain't gonna work
Maybe you'll never reap what you sow

[Chorus]

I didn't want to do what everybody does
And hide the truth to find we never knew a thing about love
Cos this is real life, real love
And knowing what it comes down too
It just might be enough

While we're talking about hugs...

I will come to you in the daytime
I will raise you from your sleep
I will kiss you in four places
As I go runnin' down your street

I will squeeze the life right out of you
I will make you laugh, and make you cry
And we may never forget it
As I make you call my name as you shout it to the blue, summer sky

And we may never meet again
So shed your skin lets get started
And you will throw your arms around me
And you will throw your arms around me

I will come to you at nightime
I will climb into your bed
I will kiss you in 155 places
As I go swim around in your head

I will squeeze the life right out of you
I will make you laugh, I'll make you cry
And we may never forget it
As I make you call my name as you shout it to the blue, summer sky

And we may never meet again
So shed your skin lets get started
And you will throw your arms around me
And you will throw your arms around me

It ain't you
No it ain't me
That's not the way
Love's supposed to be

And it's just no good
No it ain't right
For you to be sitting all alone
Crying every night

You're down on your knees
Scared he's gonna leave
But if you really wanna know
You're gonna have to let go

´Cause that's not love
Love don't feel that bad
That's not love
It don't feel that sad
No that's not love
'Cause you don't feel good inside
I don't know what it is
But that's not love

Inside your heart
It's always raining
And you're oh so tired
Tired of your own complaining

This is for real
It ain't no game
You can't measure your love
By the depths of your pain

Something that I felt today, something that I heard
Swingin' from the chandeliers, hanging on your word
I remember watchin' you once upon a time
Dancing from across the room in another life

A little bit of resolve is what I need now
Pin me down, show me how
A little bit of resolve is what I need now
Pin me down, show me how

Lookin' back to find my way, never seemed so hard
Yesterday's been laid to rest, changing of the guard
I would never change a thing even if I could
All the songs we used to sing, everything was good

A little bit of resolve is what I need now
Pin me down, show me how
A little bit of resolve is what I need now
Pin me down, show me how

One more year that you're not here
It's gone and passed you by
What happened to you, what happened to you
One more tear that you won't hear
That's gone and passed you by
What happened to you, what happened to you

A little bit of resolve is what I need now
Pin me down, show me how
A little bit of resolve is what I need now
Pin me down, show me how

A little bit of resolve
One more year that you're not here
It's gone and passed you by (A little bit of resolve)
A little bit of resolve
One more year that you're not here
It's gone and passed you by (A little bit of resolve)

I'm gonna clear out my head
I'm gonna get myself straight
I know it's never too late
To make a brand new start


I'm gonna kick down the door
I'm gonna get myself in
I'm gonna fix up the yard
And not fall back again


I'm gonna CLEAN up my earth
And build a heaven ON the ground
Not something distant or unfound
But something real to me
But something real to me


All that I can I can be
All that I am I CAN see
All that is mine is in my hands
So to myself I call


There's somewhere else I should be
There's someone else I CAN see
There's something more I can find
IT'S ONLY UP TO ME


I'm gonna clean up my earth
And build a heaven ON the ground
Not something distant on a cloud
But something real to me
But something real to me


I'm gonna clear out my head
I'm gonna get myself straight
I KNOW it's never too late
To make a brand new start
To make a brand new start
To make a brand new start

I dont want to be the filler if the void is solely yours
I dont want to be your glass of single malt whiskey
Hidden in the bottom drawer
I dont want to be the bandage if the wound is not mine
Lend me some fresh air
I dont want to be adored for what I merely represent to you
I dont want to be to be your babysitter
Youre a very big boy now
I dont want to be you mother
I didnt carry you in my womb for nine months
Show me the back door

(chorus)
Visiting hours are 9 to 5 and if I show up at half past six
Well I already know that youd find some way to sneak me in and oh
Mind the empty bottle with the holes along the bottom
You see its too much to ask for and Im not the doctor

I dont want to be the sweeper of the eggshells that you walk upon
I dont want to be your other half I believe that 1 and 1 make 2
I dont want to be your food or the light from the fridge
On your face at midnight
Hey what are you hungry for
I dont want to be the glue that holds your pieces together
I dont want to be your idol
See this pedestal is high and Im afraid of heights
I dont want to be lived through
A vicarious occasion
Please open the window

(repeat chorus)

I dont want to live on someday when my motto is last week
I dont want to be responsible for your fractured heart
And its wounded beat
I dont want to be a substitute for the smoke youve been inhaling
What do you thank me
What do you thank me for

I looked out this morning and the sun was gone
Turned on some music to start my day
I lost myself in a familiar song
I closed my eyes and I slipped away

It's more than a feeling, when I hear that old song they used to play (more than a feeling)
I begin dreaming (more than a feeling)
'till I see Marianne walk away
I see my Marianne walkin' away

So many people have come and gone
Their faces fade as the years go by
Yet I still recall as I wander on
as clear as the sun in the summer sky

It's more than a feeling, when I hear that old song they used to play (more than a feeling)
I begin dreaming (more than a feeling)
'till I see Marianne walk away
I see my Marianne walkin' away

When I'm tired and thinking cold
I hide in my music, forget the day
and dream of a girl I used to know
I closed my eyes and she slipped away
She slipped awa y. She slipped away.

It's more than a feeling, when I hear that old song they used to play (more than a feeling)
I begin dreaming (more than a feeling)
'till I see Marianne walk away
I see my Marianne walkin' away

Flatliner. - Maggi Hill
===============

There's a tin boat with no oars drifting downstream
down the muddy brown waters like a castaway dream
the faded red rudder is pointing northeast
with no current flowing all motion has ceased

Had it all wrung out, hung up up to dry
nothing left inside
and the hopes and dreams in my heart
have faded and scattered all apart

flatliner

there's a grey train with no wheels on an overgrown track
facing both ways at once, can't find its way back
there's no set destination and the sleeping cars rust
the engineers handles sit covered with dust
its where we stop trying, simply watch and wait
for others to lead us away from our fate.

In an old house with no shutters, high on a hill,
there's views all around and a broken windmill.
The closets are empty and the fireplace cold
not even an ember to warm a lost soul
had it all wrung out hung up to dry

Had it all wrung out, hung up up to dry
nothing ...
and the hopes and dreams in my heart
have faded and scattered all apart
--------------------------------

There are very, very few tracks that I can put on repeat, but this is one of those that I love to.

I wake in the night
to find you on my mind
Deep in a dream,
you'll always be
until the end of time
I look in your eyes
They touch my soul
My love is hard to hide
I'm never alone when we're apart.
I feel you by my side

And here in my heart,
where no one else will ever be
I know who you are,
so lock the door and throw away the key
Save all your love
Save your love for me
When I'm alone at night,
you're all I see

I wake from a dream
and see you by my side
How could I belong to someone else,
when holdin' you feels so right?
And here in my heart
where no one else will ever be
We've made it so far,
so lock the door and throw away the key

Save all your love
Save all your love for me
When I'm alone at night,
you're all I see
Save all your love
Save your love for me
Don't turn your back on me
You're all I need

Save Your Love: Great White.

The wind blows hard against this mountainside
Across the sea into my soul
It reaches into where I cannot hide
Setting my feet upon the road

My heart is old it holds my memories
My body burns a gemlike flame
Somewhere between the soul and soft machine
Is where I find myself again

Kyrie Eleison
Down the road that I must travel
Kyrie Eleison
Through the darkness of the night
Kyrie Eleison
Where I'm going will you follow
Kyrie Eleison
On a highway in the light

When I was young I thought of growing old
Of what my life would mean to me
Would I have followed down my chosen road
Or only wished what I could be

Here I stand, all alone
Have my mind turned with stone
Have my heart filled up with ice
To avoid it's breaking twice.

Thanks to you, my dear old friend.
But you can't help this is the end
Of a tale that wasn't right.
I won't have no sleep tonight.

In my heart, In my soul: I really hate to pay this toll
Should be strong, young and bold: but the only ything I feel is pain.

It's alright, we'll stay friends
Trusting in my confidence
And let's say. "It's just alright."
You wont sleep alone tonight.

In my heart, In my soul: I really hate to pay this toll
Should be strong, young and bold: but the only thing I feel is pain.

With my heart, with my soul: some guy's cry, "You've bought and sold."
They've been strong, young and bold. And they say, "Play this song again..."

A Tale That Wasn't Right.

Magic... moments
There're the things I will remember
Where's the time we spent together... laughing
Then you walk into my dream... dear

And I see your face
Young and so free, smiling at me
So long since I've... had you near

Now you've come back again
Where the love never ends
And you're right here
When I think of you

When I... need you, I just close my eyes
And you're... here
Right beside me when I'm lost in... shadows
Of the memories of you... oh my dear

And I see your face
Young and so free, smiling at me
In your eyes I walk without fear
We're together again
Where the love never ends
'Cause you're right here
When I think of you

Hold on... just for a while
Hold on... hold on

I try to forget the night that you left
It's all so unreal, with you gone
I can dream once again...
Where the love never ends
'Cause you're right here
When I think of you
When I think of you
When I think of you

How can I think I'm standing strong,
Yet feel the air beneath my feet?
How can happiness feel so wrong?
How can misery feel so sweet?
How can you let me watch you sleep,
Then break my dreams the way you do?
How can I have got in so deep?
Why did I fall in love with you?

[CHORUS:]
This is the closest thing to crazy I have ever been
Feeling twenty-two, acting seventeen,
This is the nearest thing to crazy I have ever known,
I was never crazy on my own...
And now I know that there's a link between the two,
Being close to craziness and being close to you.

How can you make me fall apart
Then break my fall with loving lies?
It's so easy to break a heart;
It's so easy to close your eyes.
How can you treat me like a child
Yet like a child I yearn for you?
How can anyone feel so wild?
How can anyone feel so blue?

[CHORUS]

I would have given you all of my heart
But there's someone who's torn it apart
And she's taken just all that I had
But if you want I'll try to love again
Baby I'll try to love again but I know

The first cut is the deepest
Baby I know the first cut is the deepest
But when it come to being lucky she's cursed
When it come to loving me she's the worst
I still want you by my side
Just to help me dry the tears that I've cried
And I'm sure going to give you a try
And if you want I'll try to love again
Baby I'll try to love again but I know

The first cut is the deepest
Baby I know the first cut is the deepest
But when it come to being lucky she's cursed
When it come to loving me she's the worst

I still want you by my side
Just to help me dry the tears that I've cried
But I'm sure gonna give you a try
'cause if you want I'll try to love again
Baby I'll try to love again but I know

The first cut is the deepest
Baby I know the first cut is the deepest
When it come to being lucky she's cursed
When it come to loving me she's the worst

Same old story is back again
She's not a lover, she's just a friend
I'm sick and tired for you to blame on me
Now you think it's funny
Now you wanna spend your money on girls
But you forgot when you were down
That I was around

Call my lover, hang up, call again
What in the world is happening
Listen in, but don't yell at me
Isn't it ironic all you wanna do is smoke chronic
Boy, you forgot when you were down
Who was around

I can't eat, I can't sleep anymore
Waiting for love to walk through the door
I wish I didn't miss you anymore

Memories don't live like people do
I'm sick for ever believing you
Wish you'd bring back the man I knew
Was good to me, oh Lord
Everytime you say you're coming
Boy, you disappoint me, honey
How well you forgot when you were down
And I was around

I can't eat, I can't sleep anymore
Waiting for love to walk through the door
I wish I didn't miss you anymore
I can't eat, I can't sleep anymore
Waiting for love to walk through the door
I wish I didn't miss you anymore

One of these days, it's gonna happen to you
Missing a love like I'm missing you, babe yeah yeah
One of these days, when your dreams come true
That's the one that's gonna do it to you
Oh oh oh, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah

I can't eat, I can't sleep anymore
Waiting for love to walk through the door
I wish I didn't miss you anymore

Well, it seems like so long ago
But it really ain't you know
I started out a crazy kid
Miracle I made it through the things I did
The things I did

Someday I'll go where there ain't no rain or snow
‘Til then, I travel alone
And I make my bed with the stars above my head
And dream of a place called home

I had a chance to settle down
Get a job and live in town
Work in some old factory
I never liked the foreman standing over me
Over me

Oh I’d rather walk a winding road
Rather know the things I know
See the world with my own eyes
No regrets, no looking back, no goodbyes
No goodbyes

Gone are the days of my mistakes,
I'd give everything, if everything is what it takes.
I'll bring the sun and I would chase
the rain, if I needed to.
But those many ways of mine, but
I've been down that road so many
Times.
And if you depend upon me, then
Maybe you'll see.

CHORUS
You can't stop the river from flowing
To the sea.
Cos some things just happen, like
They're meant to be.
And it doesn't matter where you are,
Or where you go, or what you do.
You can't stop my heart from loving you.

There is a dream I keep alive.,
Wonderful and heavenly standing by
Your side.
Bringing you all the colours love can
Spare just to be with you.
And there maybe times when i
Should have been there to hold you
Through the night.
And if you depend upon me, then
Maybe you'll see.

CHORUS
I've been miles away but I'm paying
My dues,
But don't worry I wont blame you for
A minute, no way no.
I wont blame you this time, please.

after watching Magnolia again recently I've been in a kind of Aimee Mann mode.

You look like a perfect fit
For a girl in need of a tourniquet

But can you save me
Come on and save me
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone

'Cause I can tell
You know what it's like
The long farewell of the hunger strike

But can you save me
Come on and save me
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone

You struck me dumb like radium
Like Peter Pan or Superman

You will come to save me
C'mon and save me
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
'Cept the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
But the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone

C'mon and save me
Why don't you save me
If you could save me
From the ranks of the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone

Except the freaks
Who suspect they could never love anyone
Except the freaks who could never love anyone

In the half-tone light of a young morning
she sighs and shifts on the pillow.
And across her face dancing, the first shadows fly
to kiss the Pussy Willow.

In her fairy-tale world she's a lost soul singing
in a sad voice nobody hears.
She waits in her castle of make-believing
for her white knight to appear.

Pusy Willow --- down fur-lined avenue
brushing the sleep from her young woman eyes.
Runs for the train --- see, eight o'clock's coming
cutting dreams down to size again.

something chirpy and upbeat to match my mood. Listening to this on the bus this morning with a big smile on my face. Am sure people though I was crazy.

(btw.. trivia factoid.. you may recognise this from the recent episode of Doctor Who. "Love and Monsters" .. the one with Peter Kay)

"Sun is shinin' in the sky
There ain't a cloud in sight
It's stopped rainin' ev'rybody's in a play
And don't you know
It's a beautiful new day hey,hey

Runnin' down the avenue
See how the sun shines brightly in the city
On the streets where once was pity
Mister blue sky is living here today hey, hey

Mister blue sky please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long
Where did we go wrong?

Hey you with the pretty face
Welcome to the human race
A celebration, mister blue sky's up there waitin'
And today is the day we've waited for

Hey there mister blue
We're so pleased to be with you
Look around see what you do
Ev'rybody smiles at you

Mister blue sky, mister blue sky
Mister blue sky

Mister blue, you did it right
But soon comes mister night creepin' over
Now his hand is on your shoulder
Never mind I'll remember you this
I'll remember you this way

Mister blue sky please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long
Where did we go wrong?

Hey there mister blue

Look around see what you do

We both found what we were looking for
With a friend to call my own
I'll never be alone
And you, my friend, will see
You've got a friend in me
(you've got a friend in me)

Ben, you're always running here and there
You feel you're not wanted anywhere
If you ever look behind
And don't like what you find
There's one thing you should know
You've got a place to go
(you've got a place to go)

I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"
I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"
Ben, most people would turn you away
I don't listen to a word they say
They don't see you as I do
I wish they would try to
I'm sure they'd think again
If they had a friend like Ben

after watching Magnolia again recently I've been in a kind of Aimee Mann mode.

In the same vein, there's my favourite track from the same (wonderful) film: Aimee Mann again with 'Wise Up'

It's not
What you thought
When you first began it
You got
What you want
Now you can hardly stand it though,
By now you know
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
'Til you wise up

You're sure
There's a cure
And you have finally found it
You think
One drink
Will shrink you 'til you're underground
And living down
But it's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
'Til you wise up

Prepare a list of what you need
Before you sign away the deed
'Cause it's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
It's not going to stop
'Til you wise up
No, it's not going to stop
'Til you wise up
No, it's not going to stop
So just...give up

There's a dream I will never let go.

So while there's not a thing here we can do -
Let's dance

For some reason, I've just been listening to this rather wonderful swing track from Dr Jon, which everyone's probably familiar with....

Cruella De Ville
Cruella De Ville
If she doesn't scare you
No evil thing will
To see her is to
Take a sudden chill
Cruella, Cruella De Ville

The curl of her lips
The ice in her stare
All innocent children
Had better beware
She's like a spider waiting
For the kill
Look out for Cruella De Ville

At first you think
Cruella is the devil
But after time has worn
Away the shock
You come to realize
You've seen her kind of eyes
Watching you from underneath
A rock!

This vampire bat
This inhuman beast
She ought to be locked up
And never released
The world was such
A wholesome place until
Cruella, Cruella De Ville

[repeats]

So evil, even her hair's two-faced,
Like nuttin you ever seen, she's the dean 'o mean...
Do not need to mention, she's got some doggone bad intentions.
I mean - let's face it, a person like that could ruin your whole day.

Used to say be easy, used to have truth hanging around
Never had secrets, always singing your praises now good and loud
All I got is questions, and you left me wondering why
Why you keep your distance, every lonely night

When love was bound together, we lived it by the letter
Cant close my eyes forever, cos everything has changed and now

chorus:
I aint gonna look the other way, no no
After all the clouds go by, its just another empty sky
I aint gonna wait to see the rain, no no
Nothings gonna make it right
Look at me cos I choose life

Its all about givin, its not about winning the game
My mind was open, ready or not you closed it up again
Still I keep askin, if you got something to hide
I never stopped learning all the reasons why

It took about a minute
To find the point and hit it
Gotta take this life and live it
Cos everything has changed and now

chorus:...

When all the lights go out so suddenly
I loose my way
So baby tell me is something going on
You gotta free me
This time Im gonna be strong

chorus:...

Right in the night
Right in the night you'll find
That if you want to fall in love you'll fall in love

Right in the night
Right in the night sweet thing is what you'll get
When you fall in love, you fall in love

Fall in love with music, fall in love with dance
Fall in love with anything that makes you want romance
Make a little softer on the way that you go
Just think that everything you touch could turn to gold

Fall in love with everything that you would love to love
You know that laughter is a kind form to wake you up
So don't make me feel unpleasant like you do
You know that everything will fall right back on you

So fall in love with everything, fall in love with life
Forget about your troubles and be a little nice
You will not see me if you don't want to look
Just come and get me in my big big bed of love
Big big bed of love

Right in the night
Right in the night
Right in the night you'll find
That if you want to fall in love you'll fall in love

Right in the night
Right in the night sweet thing is what you'll get
When you fall in love, you fall in love

So fall in love with stories if fairy tales are true
Innocence is part of what you're losin' with your youth
Show a little confidence, show a little class
Don't kiss the past, the past ain't gonna last

Just fall in love with passion, fall in love with lust
Fall in love with all the things you're always dreaming of
Fall in love with music and you will get by

Right in the night
Right in the night
Right in the night you'll find
That if you want to fall in love you'll fall in love

Right in the night
Right in the night sweet thing is what you'll get
When you fall in love, you'll fall in love

It's been a long road, getting from there to here.
It's been a long time, but my time is finally near.
And I can feel the change in the wind right now. Nothing's in my way.
And they're not gonna hold me down no more, no they're not gonna hold me down.

Cause I've got faith of the heart.
I'm going where my heart will take me.
I've got faith to believe. I can do anything.
I've got strength of the soul. And no one's gonna bend or break me.
I can reach any star. I've got faith, faith of the heart.

It's been a long night. Trying to find my way.
Been through the darkness. Now I finally have my day.
And I will see my dream come alive at last. I will touch the sky.
And they're not gonna hold me down no more, no they're not gonna change my mind.

I've known the wind so cold, I've seen the darkest days.
But now the winds I feel, are only winds of change.
I've been through the fire and I've been through the rain.
But I'll be fine ...

[Boy:]
I remember every little thing
As if it happened only yesterday
Parking by the lake
And there was not another car in sight
And I never had a girl
Looking any better than you did
And all the kids at school
They were wishing they were me that night

And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C'mon, hold on tight
C'mon, hold on tight

Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light

[Girl:]
Ain't no doubt about it we were doubly blessed
'Cause we were barely seventeen
And we were barely dressed

[Both:]
Ain't no doubt about it
Baby got to go out and shout it
Ain't no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed

[Boy:]
'Cause we were barely seventeen
And we were barely dressed

Baby don'cha hear my heart
You got it drowing out the radio
I've been waiting so long
For you to come along and have some fun
And I gotta let you know
No you're never gonna regret it
So open up your eyes, I got a big surprise
It'll feel all right
Well I wanna make you motor run

And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C'mon, Hold on tight
C'mon, Hold on tight

[Both:]
Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light
Paradise by the dashboard light

You got to do what you can
And let Mother Nature do the rest
Ain't no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed
'Cause we were barely seventeen
And we were barely

We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way
And tonight's the night

[Radio Broadcast:]
OK, here we go, we got a real pressure cooker going here
Two down, nobody on, no score, bottom of the ninth
There's the wind-up, and there it is
A line shot up the middle, look at him go
This boy can really fly
He's rounding first and really turning it on now
He's not letting up at all, he's gonna try for second
The ball is bobbled out in the center
And here's the throw and what a throw
He's gonna slide in head first
Here he comes, he's out
No, wait, safe, safe at second base
This kid really makes things happen out there
Batter steps up to the plate
Here's the pitch, he's going
Amd what a jump he's got
He's trying for third
Here's the throw
It's in the dirt, safe a third
Holw cow, stolen base
He's taking a pretty big lead out there
Almost daring them to pick him off
The pitcher glances over, winds-up and it's bunted
Bunted down the third base line
The suicide squeeze is on
Here he comes, squeeze play, it's gonna be close
Here's the throw, here's the play at the plate
Holy cow, I think he's gonna make it

[Girl:]
Stop right there
I gotta know right now
Before we go any further

Do you love me
Will you love me forever
Do you need me
Will you make me so happy
For the rest of my life
Will you take me away
And will you make me your wife
Do you love me
Will you love me forever
Do you need me
Will you make me so happy
For the rest of my life
Will you take me away
And will you make me your wife

I gotta know right now
Before we go any further
Do you love me

[Girl:]
Will you love me forever

[Boy:]
I couldn't take it any longer
Lord I was crazed
And when the feeling came upon me
Like a tidal wave
I started swearing to my god
And on my mother's grave
That I would love you to the end of time
I swore I would love you to the end of time

So now I'm praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
'Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
I don't think that I can really survive
I'll never break my promise or forget my vow
But God only knows what I can do right now
I'm praying for the end of time
So I can end my time with you

[Boy:]
It was long ago and it was far away,
And it was so much better than it is today.

It never felt so good, It never felt so right
And we were glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife.

Will take me through the lonely night,
Through the cold of the day.

And all the gods come down here just to sing for me,
And the melody's gonna make me fly,
Without pain, without fear.

Give me all of your dreams,
And let me go alone on your way.
Give me all of your prayers to sing,
And I'll turn the night into the skylight of day.

You know I never would have run away from my home.

[Sung:]
It was a hot summer night
and the beach was burning.
There was fog crawling over the sand.
When I listen to your heart
I hear the whole world turning.
I see the shooting stars falling
through your trembling hands.

You were licking your lips
and your lipstick shining.
I was dying just to ask for a taste.
We were lying together in a silver lining
by the the light of the moon.
You know there's not another moment
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste.

You hold me so close that my knees grow weak.
But my soul is flying high above the ground.
I'm trying to speak but no matter what I do
I just can't seem to make any sound.

And then you took the words right out of my mouth.
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
And I swear it's true,
I was just about to say I love you.
And then you took the words right out of my mouth.
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
And I swear it's true,
I was just about to say I love you.

Now my body is shaking like a wave on the water
And I guess that I'm beginning to grin.
Oh we're finally alone and we can do what we want to.
The night is young
And Ain't no-one gonna know where you
No-one gonna know where you
No-one's gonna know where you've been.
You were licking your lips
and your lipstick shining.
I was dying just to ask for a taste.
We were lying together in a silver lining
by the the light of the moon.
You know there's not another moment
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste.

And then you took the words right out of my mouth.
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
And I swear it's true,
I was just about to say I love you.
And then you took the words right out of my mouth.
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
And I swear it's true,
I was just about to say I love you.



mmmm..... just having a MEATLOAF moment.... :flower:

The lunatic is on the grass.
The lunatic is on the grass.
Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs.
Got to keep the loonies on the path.

The lunatic is in the hall.
The lunatics are in my hall.
The paper holds their folded faces to the floor
And every day the paper boy brings more.

And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
And if there is no room upon the hill
And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.

The lunatic is in my head.
The lunatic is in my head
You raise the blade, you make the change
You re-arrange me 'til I'm sane.
You lock the door
And throw away the key
There's someone in my head but it's not me.

And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear
You shout and no one seems to hear.
And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.

Empty men without regrets
Leaning against each others shoulders
Open spaces fill the gap
Where reason reigned and fell
And I see vapour coming out
Of every crack in the framework
Caught in a vortex between false
Perceptions and reality
Forever
Dead frequencies kill the intellect
And truths that only raindrops see
Frail bodies out in the periphery
Walk like ghosts across the screen
It begins again

Listening to this just now.. Dedicated to all the gorgeous dancers I dance with

"There's so many things i like about you, I..
I just don't know where to begin,

I like the way you look at me with those beautiful eyes,
I like the way you act all surprised,
I like the way you sing along,
I like the way you always get it wrong,
I like the way you clap your hands,
I like the way you love to dance,
I like the way you put your hands up in the air,
I like the way you shake your hair,
I like the way you like to touch,
I like the way you stare so much,
but most of all....
Yeah..
most of all....

I like the way you move....."

after that I'm usually too busy dancing to worry about lyrics (although that's pretty much them.. repeated a lot ;) )

Pink Floyd is my favourite band.

My favourite songs:

LOST FOR WORDS

I was spending my time in the doldrums
I was caught in a cauldron of hate
I felt persecuted and paralysed
I thought that everything else would just wait

While you are wasting your time on your enemies
Engulfed in a fever of spite
Beyond your tunnel vision reality fades
Like shadows into the night

To martyr yourself to caution
Is not gonna help at all
Because there'll be no safety in numbers
When the Right One walks out of the door

Can you see your days blighted by darkness?
Is it true you beat your fists on the floor?
Stuck in a world of isolation
While the ivy grows over the door

So I open my door to my enemies
And I ask could we wipe the slate clean
But they tell me to please go … myself
You know you just can't win



HIGH HOPES

Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
In a world of magnets and miracles
Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
The ringing of the division bell had begun

Along the long road and on down the causeway
Do they still meet there by the cut

There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps
Running before time took our dreams away
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
To a life consumed by slow decay

The grass was greener
The light was brighter
With friends surrounded
The nights of wonder

Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by the force of some inner tide

At a higher altitude with flag unfurled
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world

Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stay to the horizon
Though down this road we've been so many times

The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends surrounded
The dawn mist glowing
The water flowing
The endless river

Somewhere beyond the sea
Somewhere waiting for me
My lover stands on golden sands
And watches the ships that go sailing

Somewhere beyond the sea
He's watching for me
If I could fly like birds on high
Then straight to his arms I'd go sailing
It's far beyond a star, it's near beyond the moon
I know beyond a doubt
My heart will lead me there soon

We'll meet beyond the shore
We'll kiss just as before
Happy we'll be beyond the sea
And never again I'll go sailing
Some sailing

Who is the man I see
Where I'm supposed to be?
I lost my heart, I buried it too deep
Under the iron sea

Oh, crystal ball, crystal ball
Save us all, tell me life is beautiful
Mirror, mirror on the wall

Lines ever more unclear
Not sure I'm even here
The more I look the more I think that I'm
Starting to disappear

Oh, crystal ball, crystal ball
Save us all, tell me life is beautiful
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Oh, crystal ball, hear my song
I'm fading out, everything I know is wrong
So put me where I belong

I don't where I am
And I don't really care
I look myself in eye
There's no-one there
I fall upon the earth
I call upon the air
But all I get is the same old vacant stare

Oh, crystal ball, crystal ball
Save us all, tell me life is beautiful
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Oh, crystal ball, hear my song
I'm fading out, everything I know is wrong
So put me where I belong

"One pill makes you larger
And one pill makes you small,
And the ones that mother gives you
Don't do anything at all.
Go ask Alice
When she's ten feet tall.

And if you go chasing rabbits
And you know you're going to fall,
Tell 'em a hookah smoking caterpillar
Has given you the call.
Call Alice
When she was just small

When the men on the chessboard
Get up and tell you where to go
And you've just had some kind of mushroom
And your mind is moving low.
Go ask Alice
I think she'll know.

When logic and proportion
Have fallen sloppy dead
And the White Knight is talking backwards
And the Red Queen's off with her head
Remember what the dormouse said:
"Feed your head! Feed your head!"

To the tune of American Pie

"The Saga Begins" - Weird Al Yankovic

"A long, long time ago
In a galaxy far away
Naboo was under an attack
And I thought me and Qui-Gon Jinn
Could talk the federation in
To maybe cutting them a little slack
But their response, it didn't thrill us
They locked the doors and tried to kill us
We escaped from that gas
Then met Jar Jar and Boss Nass
We took a bongo from the scene
And we went to Theed to see the Queen
We all wound up on Tatooine
That's where we found this boy...

Oh my my this here Anakin guy
May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry
And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
"Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"

Did you know this junkyard slave
Isn't even old enough to shave
But he can use the Force, they say
Ahh, do you see him hitting on the queen
Though he's just nine and she's fourteen
Yah, he's probably gonna marry her someday
Well, I know he built C-3PO
And I've heard how fast his pod can go
And we were broke, it's true
So we made a wager or two
He was a prepubescent flyin' ace
And the minute Jabba started off that race
Well, I knew who would win first place
Oh yes, it was our boy

We started singin' ...
My my this here Anakin guy
May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry
And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
"Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"

Now we finally got to Coruscant
The Jedi Council we knew would want
To see how good the boy could be
So we took him there and we told the tale
How his midi-chlorians were off the scale
And he might fulfill that prophecy
Oh, the Council was impressed, of course
Could he bring balance to the Force?
They interview the kid
Oh, training they forbid
Because Yoda sensed in him much fear
And Qui-Gon said "Now listen here"
"Just stick it in your pointy ear"
"I still will teach this boy"

He was singin' ...
My my this here Anakin guy
May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry
And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
"Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"

We caught a ride back to Naboo
'Cause Queen Amidala wanted to
I frankly would've liked to stay
We all fought in that epic war
And it wasn't long at all before
Little Hotshot flew his plane and saved the day
And in the end some Gunguns died
Some ships blew up and some pilots fried
A lot of folks were croakin'
The battle droids were broken
And the Jedi I admire most
Met up with Darth Maul and now he's toast
Well, I'm still here and he's a ghost
I guess I'll train this boy

And I was singin' ...
My my this here Anakin guy
May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry
And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"
"Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi"

We were singin' ...
My my this here Anakin guy
May be Vader someday later - now he's just a small fry
And he left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye
Sayin' "Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi""

In the end what you don't surrender
Well the world just strips away
Girl, ain't no kindness in the face of strangers
Ain't gonna find no miracles here
Well you can wait on your blesses my darling
I got a deal for you right here
I ain't looking for praise or pity
I ain't coming round searching for a crutch
I just want someone to talk to
And a little of that human touch
Just a little of that human touch

Ain't no mercy on the streets of this town
Ain't no bread from heavenly skies
Ain't nobody drawing wine from this blood
It's just you and me tonight
Tell me, in a world without pity
Do you think what I'm asking's too much
I just want something to hold on to
And a little of that human touch
Just a little of that human touch

Oh girl that feeling of safety you prize
Well it comes at a hard hard price
You cant shut off the risk and the pain
Without losing the love that remains
Were all riders on this train

So you've been broken and you've been hurt
Show me somebody who ain't
Yeah, I know I ain't nobody's bargain
But, hell, a little touch up and a little paint...
You might need something to hold on to
When all the answers, they dont amount to much
Somebody that you could just to talk to
And a little of that human touch
Baby, in a world without pity
Do you think what Im asking's too much
I just want to feel you in my arms
Share a little of that human touch
Feel a little of that human touch
Give me a little of that human touch

Joe Jackson - The Human Touch

Some say the world is spinning faster
Some say it isn't fast enough
Some people say they've got the answer
And some are scared to say they can't keep up

I read the paper but it still isn't clear
The bombs are falling but i'm still here
I know all the figures and i know all the facts
But all i can do is keep trying . . . .
To look for the human touch

Life is hard when you've got nothing
Life can be hard when you've got too much
Sometimes i wonder what's the difference
It's only better with someone to touch



I got the telephone stuck to my ear
I keep yelling but you don't hear
In all the universe i'm just a speck of dust
But all i can do is keep trying . . . .
To give you the human touch

You know we're nothing in the scheme of things
Just microchips in big machines
And the world is spinning round and round
But i know that we can slow it down
And i know that i can make you see
I'm on the side of you and me

And all i want to do
Listen to me . . .
Is give you . . . give you

Give you the human touch

All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray
I've been for a walk on a winter's day
I'd be safe and warm if I was in L.A.
California dreamin' on such a winter's day

Stopped in to a church I passed along the way
Well I got down on my knees and I pretend to pray
You know the preacher liked the cold
He knows I'm gonna stay
California dreamin' on such a winter's day

California dreamin' on such a winter's...
California dreamin' on such a winter's...
California dreamin' on such a winter's day...

All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray
I've been for a walk on a winter's day
If I didn't tell her I could leave today
California dreamin' on such a winter's day

California dreamin' on such a winter's...
California dreamin' on such a winter's...
California dreamin' on such a winter's day...

On such a winter's day...

Hard times are fallin' on you
Even when you smile I see the hurt come through
And I know it feels like it's never gonna end
You say nothin's been right for a long time
And every step you take is an uphill climb
I see you’re reachin' out
So let me tell you friend that

Better days are comin' around
I know you feel like
The whole world's gone and let you down but
Better days they're comin' for you
I know they will
'Cause I'll be right here makin' sure they do

And if your sky ain't lookin' the fairest
There ain't no reason to be embarrassed
Ain't nobody in the world ain't felt
The rain from time to time
And just when you think it's all over and done
The night get easier one by one
So take my hand and hold on tight
And soon you're gonna find that

Better days are comin' around
I know you feel like
The whole world's gone and let you down but
Better days they're comin' for you
I know they will
'Cause I'll be right here makin' sure they do

I know what it's like
To have to face the fight
But I won't let you stand alone, no

Better days are comin' for you
I know it feels like
The whole world's gone and let you down but
Better days they're comin' for you
I know they will
'Cause I'll be right here makin' sure they do
Oh, better days
I know, I know, I know
The whole world's gone and let you down
Better days are comin' for you
I know they will

No hidden reasons for this one .. just a cool song. :grin: :grin:

And my heart was beating fast
I began to lose control
I began to lose control

I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy

I was feeling insecure
You might not love me anymore
I was shivering inside
I was shivering inside

I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
I didn't want to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy

I was trying to catch your eye
Thought that you was trying to hide
I was swallowing my pain
I was swallowing my pain

I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
I didn't mean to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy"

Come on and come to me now
Dont be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through

When the night falls on you
You dont know what to do
Nothing you confess
Could make me love you less

Ill stand by you
Ill stand by you
Wont let nobody hurt you
Ill stand by you

So if youre mad, get mad
Dont hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
Hey, what you got to hide?
I get angry too
Well Im a lot like you
When youre standing at the crossroads
And dont know which path to choose
Let me come along
cause even if youre wrong

Ill stand by you
Ill stand by you
Wont let nobody hurt you
Ill stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And Ill never desert you
Ill stand by you

And when...
When the night falls on you, baby
Youre feeling all alone
You wont be on your own

Ill stand by you
Ill stand by you
Wont let nobody hurt you

Ill stand by you

but I sure know where I've been
hanging on the promises in songs of yesterday.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time
but here I go again, here I go again.

Tho' I keep searching for an answer
I never seem to find what I'm looking for.
Oh Lord, I pray you give me strength to carry on
'cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.

Here I go again on my own
goin' down the only road I've ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time.

Just another heart in need of rescue
waiting on love's sweet charity
an' I'm gonna hold on for the rest of my days
'cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.

I got my head in a mess this morning
I dreamt of foolish hearts and that you'd stopped calling
I didnt realise quite how much I love your eyes
Oh dear

Ive fallen out of the mould that was holding me lonely
Ive shared thoughts with you that used to be for only me
I feel opened up so please dont break my heart
Oh dear

If I had my way I wouldnt be nobody's lady
I havent loved nobody, loved nobody lately
And its all out of my hands
It's all out of my hands

And if I had a say I'd try to be a little wary
Cause I easily bruise and I simply refuse to hurt
So don't you make me
And it's all out of my hands
It's out of my hands

Ive heard you try to deny that youve had many lovers
But your eyes cant disguise all of the others
I got your number but you look so sweet in slumber
Oh dear

I got my days muddled up - I had no blues last monday
I havent laughed so much since the first time you called me
I feel tickled pink but it only makes me think
Oh dear

as part of my on going mission to quote some of the more odd tracks on my MP3 player I bring you this little ditty.

Charles Aznavour- "She"

She
May be the face I can't forget
A trace of pleasure or regret
May be my treasure or the price I have to pay
She may be the song that summer sings
May be the chill that autumn brings
May be a hundred tearful things
Within the measure of the day.

She
May be the beauty or the beast
May be the famine or the feast
May turn each day into heaven or a hell
She may be the mirror of my dreams
A smile reflected in a stream
She may not be what she may seem
Inside a shell

She who always seems so happy in a crowd
Whose eyes can be so private and so proud
No one's allowed to see them when they cry
She may be the love that can and hope to last
May come to me from shadows of the past
That I remember till the day I die

She
May be the reason I survive
The why and where for I'm alive
The one I'll care for through the rough and rainy years
Me I'll take her laughter and her tears
And make them all my souvenirs
For where she goes I got to be
The meaning of my life is

She, she, she

And people wonder why I laugh out loud at times when my MP3 player is on shuffle play :blush: :rofl:

We can hold hands till the sun goes down
Cause I know

today's odd choice from the bottomless pit of randomness that is my MP3 library is

Manfred Mann - "Mighty Quinn"

Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn

Everybody's building ships and boats
Some are building monuments, others are jotting down notes
Everybody's in despair, every girl and boy
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Everybody's gonna jump for joy

Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn

I like to go just like the rest, I like my sugar sweet
But jumping queues and makin' haste, just ain't my cup of meat
Everyone's beneath the trees, feedin' pigeons on a limb
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
All the pigeons gonna run to him

Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn

Let me do what I wanna do, I can't decide 'em all
Just tell me where to put 'em and I'll tell you who to call
Nobody can get no sleep, there's someone on everyone's toes
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Everybody's gonna wanna doze

Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn

My mother had a brother
They say that I was born on the day that he died
Someone to cling to, she said
When all the noises and the shame came calling


My mother had a brother
I thought I knew them all, I thought I knew
But she lied
I said, “Show me his face again, tell me again why he died”


She said he couldn’t wait for the things that I’ve seen
She said he wasn’t strong enough, he never dared to dream a life like mine


My mother had a brother
Over-sensitive and kind
Seems it all became too much for him..
It seems he took his own life
Mum, I can’t imagine the joy and pain in equal measure
Tears in the dirt, and all over your newborn treasure


I guess he had to wait until my momma had me
I guess he couldn’t wait another moment to be free
In endless sky…..


But mama will you tell him from your boy
The times they changed
I guess the world was getting warmer
And we got stronger
Mother will you tell him about my joy
I live each day for him
The sun came out, yeah, and I’m just breathing it in


(breathing…)


My mother had a brother
Same desire, different time
Seems the empty spaces tortured him
Until he took his own life


I don’t know why I waited so long for love
I just don’t know what I was thinking of..
All that wasted time


But mama will you tell him from your boy
The times they changed
I guess the world was getting warmer
While we got stronger
Mother will you tell him about my joy
I live each day with him
Your son came out, yeah,
And I’m still breathing it in


And I swear now that freedom is here
I’m gonna taste it all for you boy
I’m bad to the bone, I’m just a little torn
I’m making so much love


So those of us who have nothing to fear
We’ve got to make damn sure that it was worth it
I’m bad to the bone, I’m just a little stoned
I’m making so much love


I was a prisoner, but he saved me
Broke into my dreams and said, “Who cares?”
I was a prisoner, so disgrace me
I’m glad to be home
And I don’t believe they care.

I don't want your money, honey
I just want your time
A kiss that's bought with gifts and gold
Just isn't worth a dime
Don't offer me a string of pearls
Or a penthouse so sublime
I don't want your money, honey
I just want your time
I don't want your money, honey
I just want your time
The two of us, will ride the bus
And up to the moon we'll climb
You can't buy a single kiss
As long as they are mine
'Cause I don't want your money, honey
I just want your time
I don't want your money, honey
I just want your time
Tho' I have a fling won't cost a thing
No worries on our mind
Don't want a great big diamond ring
'Cause I'm just not that kind
I don't want your money, honey
I just want your time

ok another silly one from me

Weird Al Yankovic - "Generic Blues"

"I woke up this morning
Then I went back to bed
Said I woke up this morning
Then I went right back to bed
Got a funny kind of feelin' like
I got broken glass in my underwear
And a herd of wild pigs is trying to chew off my head
You know what I'm sayin'

Well I ain't got not money
I'm just walkin' down the road
Said I ain't got no money, honey
So I'm just walking down this lonely old road
Well, I wish I could get me some money
But I forgot my automated teller code

I was born in a paper sack in the bottom of a sewer
I had to eat dirt clods for breakfast, my family was so poor
My daddy was a waitress
My mama sold bathroom tiles
My brothers and sisters all hated me
'Cause I was an only child

I got the blues so bad, woo
Kinda wish I was dead
Maybe I'll blow my brains out mama
Or maybe I'll, yeah maybe I'll just go bowlin' instead

I'm just a no good, scum sucking, nose picking
Boot licking, sniveling, groveling, worthless hunk of slime

Nothing but a low-down beer bellied, bone headed
Pigeon toed, turkey necked, weasle faced
Worthless hunk of slime

Guess I pretty low self image
Maybe it's a chemical imbalance or something, I
I should probably go and see a doctor about it
When I've got the time
Make it talk
Aw, make it talk, son, make it talk
OK, now make it shut up

Plagues and famine and pestilence
Always seem to get me down
I always feel so miserable whenever I'm around
I wish somebody would come along
Stick a pitchfork through my brain
I'd flush myself right down the toilet
But I'd just clog up the drain

I got the blues so bad
Kinda wish I was dead
Maybe I'll blow my brains out mama
Or maybe I'll go bowling
Or I just might go bowling
Maybe I'll just rent some shoes and go bowling
Maybe I'll join a league, enter a tournament put on a stupid looking shirt and go bowling instead
Yeah"

inspired by Taz's post in the Singletons Sofa..

Lou Reed - "Perfect Day"

Just a perfect day,
Drink Sangria in the park,
And then later, when it gets dark,
We go home.
Just a perfect day,
Feed animals in the zoo
Then later, a movie, too,
And then home.

Oh it's such a perfect day,
I'm glad I spent it with you.
Oh such a perfect day,
You just keep me hanging on,
You just keep me hanging on.

Just a perfect day,
Problems all left alone,
Weekenders on our own.
It's such fun.
Just a perfect day,
You made me forget myself.
I thought I was someone else,
Someone good.

Oh it's such a perfect day,
I'm glad I spent it with you.
Oh such a perfect day,
You just keep me hanging on,
You just keep me hanging on.

You're going to reap just what you sow,
You're going to reap just what you sow,
You're going to reap just what you sow,
You're going to reap just what you sow

I've just come back from the Isle of Skye
Im no very big and I'm awful shy
And the lassies shout when I go by
"Donald where's yer troosers"

A lassie took me to a ball
And it was slippery in the hall
And I was feart that I would fall
Fur I hadnae on ma' troosers

To wear the kilt is my delight
It isna wrong, I know its right
The islanders would get a fright
If they saw me in the troosers

Let the wind blow high, let the wind blow low
Through the streets in my kilt I'll go
And all the lassies shout hello
"Donald where's yer troosers"

Never was a cornflake girl
Thought that was a good solution
Hanging with the raisin girls
She's gone to the other side
Givin us a yo heave ho
Things are getting kind of gross
And I go at sleepy time
This is not really happening
You bet your life it is

Peel out the watchword
Just peel out the watchword

She knows what's goin on
Seems we got a cheaper feel now
All the sweetcaze are gone
Gone to the other side
With my encyclopedia
They musta paid her a nice price
She's putting on her string bean love
This is not really happening
You bet your life it is

Peal our the watchword
Just peel out the watchword

Never was a cornflake girl
Thought that was a good solution

Rabbit where'd you put the keys girl
And the man with the golden gun thinks he knows so much
Thinks he knows so much

Sugar Queen - Brian Houston

If you think you see a spy
Every time you meet a stranger
You’re looking in the eyes
Of the rabid dogs of danger

Well you try a little pain
For sometimes pain can bring you pleasure
Darling don’t make the mistake of thinking
Pain will keep us together

If the shoulder that you cry on
Is the one you can’t rely on
I’ll be there
I’ll be there
If the heart that you believed in
Falls apart and starts deceiving
I’ll be there
Yeah I’ll be there

For you’re the sugar queen
You’re the sugar queen
You were inclined to follow me
But now you are the sugar queen.

I used to be a step ahead
Of everything you do
And Now you’re catching up
I'm gonna keep an eye on you

Just look at you you’re beautiful
You take me by surprise
You capture my imagination
Hold it prisoner in your eyes

If the shoulder that you cry on
Is the one you can’t rely on
I’ll be there
I’ll be there
If the heart that you believed in
Falls apart and starts deceiving
I’ll be there
I’ll be there

For you’re the sugar queen
You’re the sugar queen
You're in control of everything
For now you are the sugar queen.

You’re the sugar queen
You’re the sugar queen
You were inclined to follow me
These days you are the Sugar Queen

Woah woah woah woah...
These days you are the Sugar Queen

[Bette:] Hmmm, I'm gonna get you

Get you and keep you in my arms evermore;
Leave all the others

where the moon's big and shiny,
melting your heart of stone.
I'm gonna get you

[Barry:] Not in a fast or slow boat to any crick.
[Bette:] all to myself alone;

[Bette:] I'm gonna make you mine.
[Barry:] Ha, you'll have to stand in line.
[Bette:] Get you and keep you in my band evermore;
[Barry:] Now there's a new attack.
[Bette:] Leave all the others on the shore.
[Barry:] For me they'd swim to China, to China and back.

[Bette:] Out on the briny
[Barry:] I wouldn't like the ocean,
[Bette:] where the moon's big and shiny,
[Barry:] not even in a rowboat.
[Bette:] melting your heart of stone.
Come on, what do you say?
[Barry:] Ha ha, you always get your way.
[Bette & Barry:] I'm gonna get you
on a slow boat to China,
all to myself alone, to-ge-ther.
All to myself alone.

That the rain washed away
Has left a pool of tears
Crying for the day.
Why leave me standing here?
Let me know the way.

Many times I've been alone
And many times I've cried,
Anyway you'll never know
The many ways I've tried.

But still they lead me back
To the long, winding road
You left me standing here
A long, long time ago
Don't leave me waiting here
Lead me to your door.

I must've dreamed a thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street.

Now did you read the news today
They say the danger's gone away
But I can see the fires still alight
They're burning into the night.

There's too many men
Too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see
This is a land of confusion.

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands were given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in.

Ooh superman where are you now
When everything's gone wrong somehow
The men of steel, the men of power
Are losing control by the hour.

This is the time
This is the place
So we look for the future
But there's not much love to go round
Tell me why, this is a land of confusion.

Long ago -
Ooh when the sun was shining
Yes and the stars were bright
All through the night
And the sound of your laughter
As I held you tight
So long ago -

I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know, we'll never keep.

I never want to play the games that people play
I never want to hear the things they gotta say
I've found everything I need
I never wanted anymore than I can see
I only want you to believe

If it's wrong to tell the truth
Then what am I supposed to do
When all I want to do is speak my mind (speak my mind)
If it's wrong to do what's right
I'm prepared to testify
If loving you with all my heart's a crime
Then I'm guilty

I wanna give you all the things you never had
Don't try to tell me how he treats you isn't bad
I need you back in my life
I never wanted just to be the other guy (be the other guy
I never wanted to live a lie

All I want to do is speak my mind (speak my mind)
If it's wrong to do what's right

If loving you with all my heart's a crime
Then I'm guilty

Girl I followed my heart
Followed the truth
Right from the start it led me to you
Please don't leave me this way
I'm guilty now all I have to say

If it's wrong to tell the truth
Then what am I supposed to do
When all I want to do is speak my mind (speak my mind)
If it's wrong to do what's right
I'm prepared to testify
If loving you with all my hearts a crime

What am I supposed to do

All I wanna do is speak my mind

Am in an ELO mood again ;) Have already posted my Favourite track "Mr Blue Sky" earlier on this forum.. so here's my second fave

ELO - 'Don't Bring Me Down'

"You got me running going out of my mind,
You got me thinking that I'm wasting my time.
Don't bring me down no no no no no,
I'll tell you once more before I get off the floor
Don't bring me down.

You want to stay out with your fancy friends.
I'm telling you it's go to be the end,
Don't bring me down no no no no no,
I'll tell you once more before I get off the floor
Don't bring me down.

Don't bring me down, grrroosss
Don't bring me down, grrroosss
Don't bring me down, grrroosss
Don't bring me down.

What happened to the girl I used to known,
You let your mind out somewhere down the road,
Don't bring me down, no no no no no,
I'll tell you once more before I get off the floor
Don't bring me down.

You're always talking about your crazy nights,
One of these days you're gonna get it right.
Don't bring me down, no no no no no,
I'll tell you once more before I get off the floor
Don't bring me down.

Don't bring me down, grrroosss
Don't bring me down, grrroosss
Don't bring me down, grrroosss
Don't bring me down.

You're looking good just like a snake in the grass,
One of these days you're gonna break your glass.
Don't bring me down, no no no no no no no no,
I'll tell you once more before I get off the floor
Don't bring me down.

You got me shaking got me running away
You get me crawling up to you everyday,
Don't bring me down, no no no no no,
I'll tell you once more before I get off the floor
Don't bring me down."


And yes.. it's "grrroosss" apparently (even though I always assumed it was Bruce) it's what it says on the Lyric sheet with the album at least! Jeff Lynne says it's just a word he made up. although these days when it's performed he will sing "Bruce" as that's what most fans think it is anyway

(jeez.. people will begin to think I'M "The Explainer" at this rate ;) )

I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope I'll be your love
Be everything that you need.
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly, madly, deeply do
I will be strong I will be faithful
'cause I'm counting on

A new beginning
A reason for living
A deeper meaning, yeah

I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna bathe with you in the sea
I wanna lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me

And when the stars are shining brightly in the velvet sky,
I'll make a wish, SEND IT to heaven and make you want to cry
The tears of joy for all the pleasure in the certainty
That we're surrounded by the comfort and protection of

The highest powers
In lonely hours
And the tears devour you

I want to stand with you on a mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me

Oh can't you see it baby?
You don't have to close your eyes
'Cause it's standing right before you
All that you need will surely come

I'll be your dream I'll be your wish
I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope I'll be your love
Be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly, madly, deeply do

I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna bathe with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me

I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna bathe with you in the sea

Oh it seemed forever stopped today
All the lonely hearts in London
Caught a plane and flew away
And all the best women are married
All the handsome men are gay
You feel deprived

Yeah are you questioning your size?
Is there a tumour in your humour,
Are there bags under your eyes?
Do you leave dents where you sit,
Are you getting on a bit?
Will you survive
You must survive

When there's no love in town
This new century keeps bringing you down
All the places you have been
Trying to find a love supreme
A love supreme

Oh what are you really looking for?
Another partner in your life to
abuse and to adore?
Is it lovey dovey stuff,
Do you need a bit of rough?
Get on your knees

Yeah turn down the love songs that you hear
'Cause you can't avoid the sentiment
That echoes in your ear
Saying love will stop the pain
Saying love will kill the fear
Do you believe
You must believe
When there's no love in town
This new century keeps bringing you down
All the places you have been
Trying to find a love supreme
A love supreme

I spy with my little eye
Something beginning with (ah)
Got my back up
And now she's screaming
So I've got to turn the track up
Sit back and watch the royalties stack up
I know this girl she likes to switch teams
And I'm a fiend but I'm living for a love supreme

When there's no love in town
This new century keeps bringing you down
All the places you have been
Trying to find a love supreme
A love supreme

Come and live a love supreme
Don't let it get you down
Everybody lives for love

And now I'm all alone again
Nowhere to turn, no one to go to.
Without a home, without a friend
without a face to say hello to
But now the night is near
And I can make-believe he's here

Sometimes I walk alone at night
When everybody else is sleeping
I think of him and then I'm happy
With the company I'm keeping
The city goes to bed
And I can live inside my head

On my own
Pretending he's beside me
All alone
I walk with him 'til morning
Without him, I feel his arms around me
And when I lose my way, I close my eyes and he has found me

In the rain
The pavement shines like silver
All the lights are misty in the river
In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight
And all I see is him and me forever and forever

And I know it's only in my mind
That I'm talking to myself and not to him
And although I know that he is blind
Still I say there's a way for us

I love him
But when the night is over
He is gone
The river's just a river
Without him, the world around me changes
The trees are bare and everywhere the streets are full of strangers

I love him
But every day I'm lonely
All my life I've only been pretending
Without me, his world will go on turning
The world is full of happiness that I have never known

I love him
I love him
I love him...
But only on my own...

Do you hear the people sing
Singing the song of angry men
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes

Will you join in our crusade
Who will be strong and stand with me
Beyond the barricade
Is there a world you long to see

Then join in the fight
That will give you the right to be free

Do you hear the people sing
Singing the song of angry men
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes


Will you give all you can give
So that our banner may advance
Some will fall and some will live
Will you stand up and take your chance
The blood of the martyrs
Will water the meadows of France


Do you hear the people sing
Singing the song of angry men
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again
When the beating of your heart
Echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes

Eponine Marius

Don't you fret, M'sieur Marius
I don't feel any pain
A little fall of rain
Can hardly hurt me now
You're here, that's all i need to know
And you will keep me safe
And you will keep me close
And rain will make the flowers grow

But you will live, Eponine
Dear God above
If I could heal your wounds with words of love

Just hold me now and let it be
Shelter me, comfort me

You would live a hundred years
If I could show you how
I won't desert you now

The rain can't hurt me now
This rain will wash away what's passed
And you will keep me safe
And you will keep me close
I'll sleep in your embrace at last
The rain that brings you here
Is heaven blessed
The skies begin to clear
And I'm at rest
A breath away from where you are
I've come home from so far

So don't you fret Hush a bye
M'sieur Marius Dear Eponine
I don't feel any pain You won't feel any pain
A little fall of rain A little fall of rain
Can hardly hurt me now Can hardly hurt you now

I'm here

That's all I need to know

And you will keep me safe I will stay with you
And you will keep me close 'Til you are sleeping

And rain

And rain

Will make the flowers

Will make the flowers... grow

Barclay James Harvest - "Mockingbird"

"Rain, sea, surf, sand, clouds and sky
Hush now baby, don't you cry
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs in the trees
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs
Just for you and me
Rain, sea, surf, sand, clouds and sky
Time will see your tears run dry
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs in the trees
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs
Just for you and me
Rain, sea, surf, sand, clouds and sun
Bless the tears of love now gone
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs in the trees
There's a mocking bird
Singing songs
Singing just for me... "

I've watched the stars fall silent from your eyes
All the sights that I have seen
I can't believe that I believed I wished
That you could see
There's a new planet in the solar system
There is nothing up my sleeve

I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs
I'm tossing up punch lines that were never there
Over my shoulder a piano falls
Crashing to the ground

In all this talk of time
Talk is fine
But I don't want to stay around
Why can't we pantomime, just close our eyes
And sleep sweet dreams
Me and you with wings on our feet
I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs
I'm tossing up punch lines that were never there
Over my shoulder a piano falls
Crashing to the ground

I'm breaking through
I'm bending spoons
I'm keeping flowers in full bloom
I'm looking for answers from the great beyond

I want the hummingbirds, the dancing bears
Sweetest dreams of you
I Look into the stars
I Look into the moon

I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs
I'm tossing up punch lines that were never there
Over my shoulder a piano falls
Crashing to the ground

I'm breaking through
I'm bending spoons
I'm keeping flowers in full bloom
I'm looking for answers from the great beyond

We were one we were free
And if there's somebody calling me on
he's the one
If there's somebody calling me on
he's the one

We were young we were wrong
We were fine all along
If there's somebody calling me on
he's the one
When you get to where you wanna go
And you know the things you wanna know
You're smiling
When you said what you wanna say
And you know the way you wanna play
You'll be so high you'll be flying

Though the sea will be strong
I know we'll carry on
Cos if there's somebody calling me on

If there's somebody calling me on

And you know the things you wanna know

Things still lead me on, a word and then it's gone
What lives here and what's stray?
Tell me please, what's signal and what's noise?

Interference, or is that the broadcast that I've got?
Your appearance renders me incapable of thought
Here's your voice on the phone, your sweet and sullen tone
What am I to believe?
Did you blow me a kiss, or was that just tape hiss?
When I hang up, will you grieve?
Have pity, now, what's signal and what's noise?

Here's your photo, I found it cleaning out my bottom drawer
When you wrote, oh, I couldn't keep from wondering what for
Through the gray, through the grain, a picture taken in the rain
That doesn't show your face
Connected dots don't make a line, you confuse me every time
Confusion has its place
But just this once
What's signal and what's noise?

Better Together - Jack Johnson

There's no combination of words
I could put on the back of a postcard,
No song that I could sing
But I can try for your heart,
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things,
Like a shoebox of photographs,
With sepiatone loving,
Love is the answer
At least for most of the questions in my heart ,
Like why are we here? And where do we go?
And how come it's so hard?
It's not always easy,
And sometimes life can be deceiving,
I'll tell you one thing, its always better when we're together


MMM, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, we'll look at the stars when we're together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together


And all of these moments
Just might find their way into my dreams tonight
But I know that they'll be gone,
When the morning light sings
And brings new things,
But tomorrow night you see
That they'll be gone too,
Too many things I have to do,
But if all of these dreams might find their way
Into my day to day scene
I'll be under the impression,
I was somewhere in-between
With only two,
Just me and you
Not so many things we got to do,
Or places we got to be
We'll sit beneath the mango tree now

Yeah, it's always better when we're together
MMM, We're somewhere in-between together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together

Mmmmm Mmmmm Mmmmm
I believe in memories
They look so, so pretty when I sleep
Hey now, and when, and when I wake up,
You look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is not enough time,
And there is no, no song I could sing
And there is no combination of words I could say
But I will still tell you one thing,
We're better together :hug:

When I get down to London.. perhaps this should be my signature tune ;)

"Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a mans soul and faith
And I was round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game

I stuck around st. petersburg
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the czar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain
I rode a tank
Held a generals rank
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah

I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made
I shouted out,
Who killed the kennedys?
When after all
It was you and me

Let me please introduce myself
Im a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reached bombay
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But whats puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah, get down, baby
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But whats confusing you
Is just the nature of my game

Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails
Just call me lucifer ... (Although I Prefer Beowulf these days)
cause I'm in need of some restraint
So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or I'll lay your soul to waste, um yeah
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, um yeah
But whats puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, I mean it, get down
Woo, who
Oh yeah, get on down
Oh yeah
Oh yeah!
Tell me baby, whats my name
Tell me honey, can ya guess my name
Tell me baby, whats my name
I tell you one time, youre to blame
Ooo, who
Ooo, who
Ooo, who ... ... ..."

I 'm just a gigolo, and everywhere I go,
People know the part I'm playin'.
Pay for every dance, sellin' each romance,
Ooohh what they're sayin'.

There will come a day, when youth will pass away,
What will they say about me?
When the end comes I know, there was just a gigalo
Life goes on without me.

I'm just a gigolo, and everywhere I go,
People know the part I’m playin'.
Pay for every dance, sellin' each romance,
Ooohh what they're sayin'.

There will come a day, when youth will pass away,
What will they say about me?
When the end comes I know, there was just a gigalo,
Life goes on without me.

Cause I ain't got nobody, nobody, cares for me,
Nobody, nobody, cares for me.
I'm so sad and lonely, sad and lonely, sad and lonely
Won't some sweet mama come and take a chance with me?
Cause I ain't so bad.

I ain't got nobody, nobody cares for me,
Nobody, nobody,

I ain't got nobody, nobody, nobody cares for me
Nobody, nobody.
I'm so sad and lonely, sad and lonely, sad and lonely
Won't some sweet mama come and rescue me?
Cause I ain't so bad.

Nobody cares for me.

Paul Williams - "You Give a Little Love" (from the Bugsy Malone Soundtrack)

"We could've been anything
That we wanted to be
And it's not too late to change
I'd be delighted to give it some thought
May-be you'll agree that we really ought
Two, three, four

We could've been anything
That we wanted to be
Yes, that decision was ours
It's been decided we're weaker divided
Let friendship double up our powers

We could've been anything
That we wanted to be
And I'm not saying that we should
But if we try it, we'd learn to abide it
We could be the best at bein' good guys

Flowers of the earth
Who can even guess how much
A real friend is worth?
Good guys!

Shake an open hand
May-We'll be trusting
If we try to understand
No doubt about it
It must be worthwhile
Good friends do tend to make you smile

We could've been anything
That we wanted to be
Yes, that decision is ours
It's been decided we're weaker divided
Let friendship double our powers

You give a little love
And it all comes back to you
(Da da da ra da da da)
You know you gonna be remembered
For the things you say and do
(Da da da ra da da da)

You give a little love
Andit all comes back to you
(Da da da ra da da da)
You know you gonna be remembered
For the things you say and do

"Samarithan" by Candlemass

One day I saw a man
dressed in rags, with a staff in his hand
begging for a penny to survive

How poor a man can be
I gave him hospitality
a room, a bed and lots of food to eat

Still I hear his last few words
"I can never return what you've done
but heaven will remember and repay"

Fifty years had gone since I saw him
I was dying and I'd soon be dead
Three angels stood in front of my bed

The first one she said to me, don't be afraid
I'll give you immortality and grace for your soul
The second had eyes of gold, gave me my wings
The third gave all wisdom an angel could give
.. to me

I joined with my destiny, eternally
I knew I was born again, an angel to be
A vision beyond my dreams, called me by name
So in devotion I spread my wings, to heaven I had came
.. to stay

Baby I'm amazed at the way you love me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I love you
Baby I'm amazed at the the way you pulled me out of time
Hung me on a line
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you

Baby I'm a girl and maybe I'm a lonely girl
Who's in the middle of something
That she doesn't really understand
Babe I'm a girl and maybe you're the only man
Who could ever help me
Baby won't you help me understand

Baby I'm amazed at the way you're with me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I leave you
Baby I'm amazed at the way you help me sing my song
You right me when I'm wrong
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you

Sometimes
I wish that I was the weather
You'd bring me up in conversation forever
And when it rained
I'd be the talk of the day

Sometimes
I wish that I was a cold beer
I'd rest assured that you would hold me near you
I'd be guaranteed to be just what you need

Sometimes
I wish that I was a bong hit
You'd let me hit on you and love every minute
And tell the room
The things I did to you

And there could be no other way
Cause you're so lame
Your tired words are all, all the same
I would walk, and I'd surely walk away
If I wasn't such a sucker for you

Feels like fire
I'm so in love with you
Dreams are like angels
They keep bad at bay
Love is the light
Scaring darkness away

I'm so in love with you
Purge the soul
Make love your goal

The power of love
A force from above
Cleaning my soul
Flame on burn desire
Love with tongues of fire
Purge the soul
Make love your goal

I'll protect you from the hooded claw
Keep the vampires from your door
When the chips are down I'll be around
With my undying, death-defying
Love for you

Envy will hurt itself
Let yourself be beautiful
Sparkling love, flowers
And pearls and pretty girls
Love is like an energy
Rushin' rushin' inside of me

This time we go sublime
Lovers entwine-divine divine
Love is danger, love is pleasure
Love is pure-the only treasure

Been Dazed and Confused for so long it's not true.
Wanted a woman, never bargained for you.
Lots of people talk and few of them know,
soul of a woman was created below.

You hurt and abuse tellin' all of your lies.
Run around sweet baby, Lord how they hypnotize.
Sweet little baby, I don't know where you've been.
Gonna love you baby, here I come again.

Every day I work so hard, bringin' home my hard earned pay
Try to love you baby, but you push me away.
Don't know where you're goin', only know just where you've been,
Sweet little baby, I want you again.

Been dazed and confused for so long, it's not true.
Wanted a woman, never bargained for you.
Take it easy baby, let them say what they will.

You put the boom-boom into my heart
You send my soul sky high when your lovin' starts
Jitterbug into my brain
Goes a bang-bang-bang 'til my feet do the same
But something's bugging you
Something ain't right
My best friend told me what you did last night
Left me sleepin' in my bed
I was dreaming, but I should have been with you instead.

Wake me up before you go-go
Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo
Wake me up before you go-go
I don't want to miss it when you hit that high
Wake me up before you go-go
'Cause I'm not plannin' on going solo
Wake me up before you go-go
Take me dancing tonight
I wanna hit that high (yeah, yeah)

You take the grey skies out of my way
You make the sun shine brighter than Doris Day
Turned a bright spark into a flame
My beats per minute never been the same

'Cause you're my lady, I'm your fool
It makes me crazy when you act so cruel
Come on, baby, let's not fight
We'll go dancing, everything will be all right

Wake me up before you go-go
Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo
Wake me up before you go-go
I don't want to miss it when you hit that high
Wake me up before you go-go
'Cause I'm not plannin'' on going solo
Wake me up before you go-go
Take me dancing tonight
I wanna hit that high (yeah, yeah, baby)



Cuddle up, baby, move in tight
We'll go dancing tomorrow night
It's cold out there, but it's warm in bed
They can dance, we'll stay home instead


Wake me up before you go-go
Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo
Wake me up before you go-go
I don't want to miss it when you hit that high
Wake me up before you go-go
'Cause I'm not plannin' on going solo
Wake me up before you go-go
Take me dancing tonight
Wake me up before you go-go, don't you dare to leave me hanging on like a

If you've got love in your sights
Watch out, love bites

When you make love, do you look in the mirror?
Who do you think of, does he look like me?
Do you tell lies and say that it's forever?
Do you think twice, or just touch 'n' see?
Ooh babe ooh yeah

When you're alone, do you let go?
Are you wild 'n' willin' or is it just for show?
Ooh c'mon

I don't wanna touch you too much baby
'Cos making love to you might drive me crazy
I know you think that love is the way you make it
So I don't wanna be there when you decide to break it
No!

Love bites, love bleeds
It's bringin' me to my knees
Love lives, love dies
It's no surprise
Love begs, love pleads
It's what I need

When I'm with you are you somewhere else?
Am I gettin' thru or do you please yourself?
When you wake up will you walk out?
It can't be love if you throw it about
Ooh babe

I don't wanna touch you too much baby
'Cos making love to you might drive me crazy

Remember when the days were long
And rolled beneath a deep blue sky
Didn't have a care in the world
With mommy and daddy standing by

But happily ever after fails
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers dwell on small details
Since daddy had to fly

But I know a place where we can go
That's still untouched by man
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
And the tall grass wave in the wind

You can lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence

O beautiful, for spacious skies
But now those skies are threatening
They're beating plowshares into swords
For this tired old man that we elected king
Armchair warriors often fail
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers clean up all details
Since daddy had to lie

But I know a place where we can go
And wash away their sin
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
And the tall grass wave in the wind
Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair spill all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence

Who knows how long this will last
Now we've come so far, so fast
But, somewhere back there in the dust
That same small town in each of us
I need to remember this
So baby give me just one kiss
And let me take a long last look
Before we say good bye

Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence

These are the days that i've been missing;
give it the taste,
give me the joy of summer wine.
these are the days that bring new meaning;
i feel the stillness of the sun
and i feel fine.

sometimes when the nights are closing early
i remember you and i start to smile.
even though now you don't want to know me
i get on by...
and i go the extra mile.

these are the times of love and meaning;
ice of the heart melted away
and found the light.
these are the days of endless dreaming;
troubles of life are floating away like a bird
in flight.

these are the days.
these are the days.
these are the days.

scat

i thought you said our love would last forever.
believin' that the tears would end for good.
i told them that we'd get though any weather.
maybe that didn't work out
but we did the best we could.

these are the days that i've been missing;

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you,
Or tell you that.
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
where's the sense in that?

I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I know I left too much mess and
destruction to come back again
And I caused nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of "it's over"
then I'm sure that that makes sense

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

And when we meet
Which I'm sure we will
All that was there
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on....

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

So, the season of the fall begins
Down the crossroads in a sleepy little inn
By the fire when the sun goes down

But the night becomes you
And the secrets of the rain

Forever autumn

And the season of the fall begins
Out the nightlands when the thunderstorm sets in
The secrets clear in the cloudy night

But the night becomes you
And the secrets of the rain, they will stay the same
And the time will come soon
With the secrets of the rain, and the storm again

Coming closer every day, forever autumn

And the season of the fall begins
Past the passingbell, past willows weeping
A ripple forms on the brinks of time

But the night becomes you
And the secrets of the rain, they will stay the same
And the time will come soon
With the secrets of the rain, and the storm again

Coming closer every day, forever autumn

My cinnamon girl - my cinnamon girl

I wanna live with a cinnamon girl
i could be happy the rest of my life with her and i

A dreamer of pictures i run in the night - you see us together
chase the moonlight

My cinnamon girl - my cinnamon girl

Ten silver saxes a bass with a bow
the drummer relaxes waits between shows
feels right

A dreamer of pictures i run in the night
you see us together chase the moonlight - all right

My cinnamon girl - my cinnamon girl

Pa sent me money now i'm gonna make it somehow i need another
chance
you see my girl loves to dance - yeah - yeah

Feels right

There's a faerie in my head and I call her Lady Rosenred
Why she came there I don't know, no I don't know

We wander worlds sometimes
Green forests, stars and stories
A secret time under three moons

We walk the clouds at times
And ride on dragon faeries
A drink with friends under three moons

Say will you dream with me tonight, under moonlit skies

We run the hills sometimes
Do battles upon evil
A bard so sings within the shadows

We turn the ghosts around
And jam with angry mages
A silent dream within the shadows

Say will you dream with me tonight, under moonlit skies

And then we turn around
And find all forests gone
And find all stars and stories gone

And then we turn around
And find all faeries gone
And find all dragons faeries gone

Say will you dream with me tonight

There's no one in town I know
You gave us someplace to go
I never said thank you for that
Thought I might get one more chance

What would you think of me now?
So lucky
So strong
So proud
Never said thank you for that
Now I'll never have a chance

May Angels lead you in
Hear you me my friends
On sleepless roads the sleepless go
May Angels lead you in

If you were with me tonight
I'd sing to you just one more time
A song for a heart so big
God wouldn't let it live

May Angels lead you in...

NARRATOR:
A lovestruck Romeo sings the streets a serenade
Laying everybody low with a love song that he made.
Finds a streetlight, steps out of the shade
Says something like "you and me babe, how about it?"

Juliet says "hey, it's Romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack!"
He's underneath the window she's singing "hey la, my boyfriend's back.
You shouldn't come around here singing up at people like that...
Anyway what you gonna do about it?"

ROMEO:
Juliet, the dice was loaded from the start
And I bet that you exploded in my heart
And I forget I forget the movie song.
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?

Come up on different streets, they both were streets of shame.
Both dirty, both mean, yes and the dream was just the same
And I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real.
How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals?

When you can fall for chains of silver,
You can fall for chains of gold,
You can fall for pretty strangers,
And the promises they hold.
You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin, yeah!
Now you just say "oh Romeo, yeah, you know I used to have this thing with him".

Juliet, when we made love you used to cry.
You said "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'til I die".
There's a place for us, you know the movie song.
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?

I can't do the talks, like the talk on the TV
And I can't do a love song, like the way it's meant to be.
I can't do everything, but I'll do anything for you,
I can't do anything, except be in love with you!

And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be,
All I do is keep the beat and the bad company.
Now all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme,
Juliet, I'd do the stars with you any time!

Juliet, when we made love you used to cry.
You said "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'til I die".
There's a place for us, you know the movie song.
When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong, Juliet?

Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try and keep your head up to the sky
Lovers, they may cause you tears
Go ahead release your fears
Stand up and be counted
Don't be ashamed to cry

You gotta be
You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold
You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard
You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm
You gotta stay together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day

Herald what your mother said
Read the books your father read
Try to solve the puzzles in your own sweet time
Some may have more cash than you
Others take a different view
My oh my, hey hey

You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold
You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard
You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm
You gotta stay together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day

Se ti incontro per strada non riesco a parlarti,
mi si bloccano le parole, non riesco a guardarti negli occhi
mi sembra di impazzire,
se potessi semplificare il battito del mio cuore
sentiresti un batterista di una band in metallo pesante
ed è per questo che sono qui davanti.
Perché mi viene molto più facile cantarti una canzone,
magari che la sentano i muri o le persone,
piuttosto che telefonarti, dirti tutto faccia a faccia,
rischiando di fare una figuraccia.
Sono timido, ma l'amore mi da coraggio
E per dirti che da quando io ti ho vista è sempre maggio
E a maggio il mondo è bello e invitante di colori,
ma ancora sugli alberi ci sono solo fiori
che prima o poi si dice diverranno pure frutti
e allora tu che fai, golosamente aspetti,
aspetti che quel desiderio avvenga condiviso.
Io sono qui davanti che ti chiedo un sorriso,
affacciati alla finestra amore mio .

Affacciati al balcone, rispondimi al citofono,
sono venuto qui col giradischi e col microfono
insieme al mio complesso per cantarti un sentimento
e se tu mi vorrai baciare io sarò contento.
E questa serenata è la mia sfida col destino,
vorrei che per la vita noi due fossimo vicino.
Una serenata rap per dirti che ti te
mi piace come mi guardi, mi piace come sei con me.
Mi piace quel tuo naso che si intona con il mondo,
mi piace il tuo sedere così rotondo,
da rendere satellite ogni essere vivente,
mi piaci perché sei intelligente.
Si vede dalle tue mani come le muovi,
mi provochi pensieri e sentimenti sempre nuovi.
Nei tuoi fianchi son le Alpi e nei tuoi seni le Dolomiti,
mi piace quel tuo gusto nello scegliere i vestiti,
quel tuo essere al di sopra delle mode del momento,
sei un fiore che è cresciuto sull'asfalto e sul cemento.
Serenata metropolitana, serenata rap, serenata rap.

Affacciati alla finestra amore mio .

Sick Puppies - "All The Same"

"I don't mind where you come from
As long as you come to me
But I don't like illusions I can't see
Them clearly

I don't care no I wouldn't dare
To fix the twist in you
You've shown me eventually
What you'll do

I don't mind
I don't care
As long are you're here

Go ahead tell me you'll leave again
You'll just come back running
Holding your scarred heart in hand
It's all the same
And I'll take you for who you are
If you'll take me for everything
Do it all over again
It's all the same

Hours slide and days go by
Till you decide to come
And in between it always seems too long
All of a sudden

And I have the skill, yeah I have the will
To breathe you in while I can
However long you stay
Is all that I am

I don't mind
I don't care
As long are you're here

Go ahead tell me you'll leave again
You'll just come back running
Holding your scarred heart in hand
It's all the same
And I'll take you for who you are
If you'll take me for everything
Do it all over again
It's always the same

Wrong or right
Black or white
If I close my eyes
It's all the same

In my life
The compromise
I'll close my eyes
It's all the same

Go ahead say it you're leaving
You'll just come back running
Holding your scarred heart in hand
It's all the same
And I'll take you for who you are
If you'll take me for everything
Do it all over again
It's all the same"

I waited 'til I saw the sun
I don't know why I didn't come
I left you by the house of fun
I don't know why I didn't come
I don't know why I didn't come

When I saw the break of day
I wished that I could fly away
Instead of kneeling in the sand
Catching teardrops in my hand

My heart is drenched in wine
But you'll be on my mind
Forever

Out across the endless sea
I would die in ecstacy
But I'll be a bag of bones
Driving down the road alone

My heart is drenched in wine
But you'll be on my mind
Forever

Something has to make you run
I don't know why I didn't come
I feel as empty as a drum
I don't know why I didn't come
I don't know why I didn't come
I don't know why I didn't come

Make us feel so hollow
We love in vain
Narcissistic and so shallow
The cops and queers
To swim you have to swallow
Hate today
No love for tomorrow
We're all stars now in the dope show
We're all stars now in the dope show
There's lots of pretty, pretty ones
Who want to get you high
But all the pretty, pretty ones
Will leave you low
And blow your mind
We're all stars now in the dope show
We're all stars now in the dope show
They love you when you're on all the covers
When you're not then they love another
They love you when you're on all the covers
When you're not then they love another
The drugs they say
Are made in california
We love your face
We'd really like to sell you
The cops and queers
Make good - looking models
I hate today
Who will I wake up with tomorrow?
There's lots of pretty, pretty ones
Who want to get you high
But all the pretty, pretty ones
Will leave you low
And blow your mind
They love you when you're on all the covers
When you're not then they love another
They love you when you're on all the covers
When you're not then they love another
There's lots of pretty, pretty ones
Who want to get you high

Will leave you low
And blow your mind
They'll blow your mind

We're all stars now in the dope show

You got me jumpin' right out of my skin
You keep it up and I'll be comin' on in
You start a feelin' you're the cream of the crop
You gonna break my heart or just make it stop
You told me that you'd always love me true
But then I heard you told another guy too
Take a cold shower but the water boils hot
The way you twist and shake it girl
You tie me in a knot
And get me hot

Ooo hot and bothered
So hot and bothered
You get me
Hot and bothered
Come on now

Now listen
I pick you up at eight by ten we do the town
Empty my pockets just a tryin' to get you down
Throw in the towel I think your games are such a bore
Just when I think I've lost you pull me to the floor
And get me hot

How can you see into my eyes like open doors
Leading you down into my core
Where I've become so numb
Without a soul
My spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home

(Wake me up) Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up) Wake me up inside
(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up) Before I come undone
(Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become

Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life

(Wake me up) Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up) Wake me up inside
(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up) Before I come undone
(Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become

Bring me to life
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life

Frozen inside without your touch
Without your love, darling
Only you are the life among the dead

All of this time, I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark, but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul
Don't let me die here
There must be something more
Bring me to life

(Wake me up) Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up) Wake me up inside
(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up) Before I come undone
(Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become

Bring me to life
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life

Ah do you love me (do you really love me)

Only the fools know what it means

Oh, temptation, temptation, I can't resist
Well I know that she is made of smoke
But I've lost my way

I want a little something more
Don't want the middle or the one before
I don't desire a complicated past
I want a love that will last

Say that you love me, say I'm the one
Don't kiss and hug me, and then try to run
I don't do drama, my tears don't fall fast
I want a love that will last

I don't want just a memory, give me forever
Don't even think about saying goodbye
Cuz I just want one love to be enough
And remain in my heart till i die
So..

Call me romantic, oh I guess that is so
There's something more that you oughta know
I'll never leave you, so don't even ask
I want a love that will last forever
I want a love that will last

I don't want just a memory, give me forever
Don't even think about saying goodbye
Cuz I just want one love to be enough
And remain in my heart till i die
So..

There's just a little, more that I need (more that I need)
I wanna share all, the air that you'll breathe
I'm not the kind of girl to complicate the past
I want a love that will last forever
I want a love that will last always
I just want a love that will last

I want a love that will last :awe:

A woman in love

Life is a moment in space
When the dream is gone
It's a lonelier place
I kiss the morning good-bye
But down inside you know
We never know why

The road is narrow and long
When eyes meet eyes
And the feeling is strong
I turn away from the wall
I stumble and fall
But I give you it all

I am a woman in love
And I'd do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It's a right I defend
Over and over again
What do I do?

With you eternally mine
In love there is
No measure of time
We planned it all at the start
That you and I
Live in each other's heart

We may be oceans away
You feel my love
I hear what you say
No truth is ever a lie
I stumble and fall
But I give you it all

I am a woman in love
And I'd do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It's a right I defend
Over and over again
What do I do?

I am a woman in love
And I'm talkin' to you
I know how you feel
What a woman can do
It's a right I defend
Over and over again

I am a woman in love
And I'd do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It's a right I defend

Girl im in love with you
This ain't the honeymoon
Past the infatuation phase
Right in the thick of love
At times we get sick of love
It seems like we argue everyday

[Bridge]
I know i misbehaved
And you made your mistakes
And we both still got room left to grow
And though love sometimes hurts
I still put you first
And we'll make this thing work
But I think we should take it slow

[Chorus]
We're just ordinary people
We don't know which way to go
Cuz we're ordinary people
Maybe we should take it slow
This time we'll take it slow
This time we'll take it slow

[Verse 2]
This ain't a movie no
No fairy tale conclusion ya'll
It gets more confusing everyday
Sometimes it's heaven sent
Then we head back to hell again
We kiss then we make up on the way

[Bridge]
I hang up you call
We rise and we fall
And we feel like just walking away
As our love advances
We take second chances
Though it's not a fantasy
I Still want you to stay

[Chorus]

Take it slow
Maybe we'll live and learn
Maybe we'll crash and burn
Maybe you'll stay, maybe you'll leave,
maybe you'll return
Maybe another fight
Maybe we won't survive
But maybe we'll grow
We never know baby you and I

Here's a message to you son
I love you one by one
Father, they may not be everything you want them to be
If you learn and live life true
And do hte things that you need to do
Then the best things in life will surely come to you

So here's a message to my sons
I love you one by one
I claim to you my love, my life is true
To you I'd give my life, I'd give my soul
If you just promise to grow old
Giving and living a life full of love

Now promise to hold them and console them
Never scold them or control them
Find a way to make things work out just right
Try kissing, try embracing, standing up face to facing
Trials of life and all hte pains and strife
It's easy to recall somewhere if you happen to fall
Don't put yourself down pick yourself up
and turn it around, turn it around

For all the fathers that have gone away
All the fathers that have gone astray
I may not be the father you want me to be
But I've loved you since your childhood
This is a message to you

The greatest gift god gave a man
Was a woman in the master plan
So take her by the hand and treat her right
Learn to love her, love your children
Hold the dearest to your soul
And remember life and love and peace to be your goal

So here's a message to my sons
I love you one by one
I calim to you my love is true, I'd give you
anything you want me to
I'd give my life, I'd give my soul
I'd give my heart to you if you just grow old
Loving and caring and giving and sharing all your love

Here's a message to my sons
Daddy loves you one by one
Name by name wherever you may roam
Whatever you do in life remember this is this
I'll always cherish and love you
And you can always, always, always come back home.

So sweet caress, never long to last!
You entered my soul and gave hope to my life

So sweet caress, never long to last!
You left me behind all alone and aghast
Captured inside such an Elysium

Imperfect feelings, futile grief
Love a devise against all solitude
As it all went on, the love became
A field in a dream that once had been real

So sweet so caress, never long to last!
Destroy this illusion we need a change of fate!
Your frantic thoughts are only a condemned cry

Primo somniare videbamur
Deinde veritas se praecipitavit

I secretly longed for something
Which had never existed

First I thought it was a dream
But then it smashed into reality
Beautiful on the outside, decayed deeply within

I secretly longed for something
Which had never existed

Devoted to a body without a soul

Beautiful dawn - lights up the shore for me.
There is nothing else in the world,
I'd rather wake up and see (with you).
Beautiful dawn - I'm just chasing time again.
Thought I would die a lonely man, in endless night.
But now I'm high; running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me.

Beautiful dawn - melt with the stars again.
Do you remember the day when my journey began?
Will you remember the end (of time)?
Beautiful dawn - You're just blowing my mind again.
Thought I was born to endless night, until you shine.
High; running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me.

Will you be my shoulder when I'm grey and older?
Promise me tomorrow starts with you,
Getting high; running wild among all the stars above.

How I wish I could surrender my soul;
Shed the clothes that become my skin;
See the liar that burns within my needing.
how I wish I'd chosen darkness from cold.
how I wish I had screamed out loud,
Instead I've found no meaning.

I guess it's time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.

How I wish I could walk through the doors of my mind;
Hold memory close at hand,
Help me understand the years.
How I wish I could choose between Heaven and Hell.
How I wish I would save my soul.
I'm so cold from fear.

I guess it's time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble.
Far, far away; find comfort in pain.
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.

Beautiful dawn,
Lights up the shore for me.
There is nothing else in the world,
I'd rather wake up and see with you.

Beautiful dawn,
I'm just chasing time again.
Thought I would die a lonely man, in the endless night.

But now I'm high!
Running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me.

Beautiful dawn, (Beautiful dawn)
Melts with the stars again.
Do you remember the day when my journey began?
Will you remember the end of time?

Beautiful dawn,(Beautiful dawn)
You're just blowing my mind again.
Thought I was born to endless nights, until you shine.

High!
Running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me.

Will you be my shoulder when I'm grey and older?
Promise me tomorrow starts with you,

Getting high!
Running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me

High!
Running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me

Bring me to life
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life

Bring Me To Life
Fantastic song!!! And great for expressive dance (not ceroc). I can't resist dancing to this - it's so emotional and dramatic.

The Dance of the Puppets
The rusted chains of prison moons
Are shattered by the sun.
I walk a road, horizons change
The tournament's begun.
The purple piper plays his tune,
The choir softly sing;
Three lullabies in an ancient tongue,
For the court of the crimson king.

The keeper of the city keys
Put shutters on the dreams.
I wait outside the pilgrim's door
With insufficient schemes.
The black queen chants
the funeral march,
The cracked brass bells will ring;
To summon back the fire witch
To the court of the crimson king.

The gardener plants an evergreen
Whilst trampling on a flower.
I chase the wind of a prism ship
To taste the sweet and sour.
The pattern juggler lifts his hand;
The orchestra begin.
As slowly turns the grinding wheel
In the court of the crimson king.

On soft gray mornings widows cry
The wise men share a joke;
I run to grasp divining signs
To satisfy the hoax.
The yellow jester does not play
But gentle pulls the strings
And smiles as the puppets dance
In the court of the crimson king.

Have been woken to this on the radio alarm twice in the last 3 days!


The first, the last, my everything
And the answer to all my dreams
You're my sun, my moon, my guiding star
My kind of wonderful, that's what you are
I know there's only, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two
You're all I'm living for
Your love I'll keep for evermore
You're the first, your the last, my everything

And with you I've found so many things
A love so new only you could bring
Can't you see it's you
You make me feel this way
You're like a fresh morning dew on a brand new day
I see so many ways that I
Can love you till the day I die
You're my reality, yet I'm lost in a-a-a a dream
You're the first, the last, my everything

I know there's only, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two
Girl you're my reality
But I'm lost in a-a-a a dream
You're the first, you're the last, my everything

Come the mornin' don't ya wake me
I'll be dreamin' that I'm free
Come the daybreak don't ya shake me
Send me back to misery

Cause I'm dealin' with the devil
With no help from above
I'm stealin' with the devil
Through this house of broken love

Takin' chances with you baby
I saw something in your eyes
And though no one else could blame me
There were signs I shoulda recognized

Now I'm dealin' with the devil
With no help from above
I'm sleepin' with the devil
In this house of broken love....broken love

If you don't wanna lose my lovin'
Use it constantly
If it's gonna be lies, suspicious eyes
Baby oh baby set me free

When the night falls and she's leavin'
Ooo the moon shines cold and grey
Hear my heartbeat yeah yeah hear m' weepin'
Pain and sorrow's here to stay

I begged you baby help me
But you turned your back on me
You didn't even listen
You should have set me free

Now I'm leavin' with the devil
Gonna leave this search for love
I'm Leavin' with the devil
Leave this house of broken love

Is anyone else looking forward to the trick-or-treaters?


Masquerade, masquerade,
Grab your mask and don't be late
Get out get out well disguised
Heat and fever in Ihe air tonight

Meet the others at the store,
Knock on other people's door
Trick or treat they have the choice
little ghost's are makin'lotsa noise

But watch out . . beware -
listen . . .take care

In the streets on Halloween
There's something going on
No way to escape the power unknown
In the streets on Halloween
The spirits will arise
Make your choice, it's hell or pardise
Ah - it's Halloween
Ah - it's Halloween..tonight!

Someone's sitting in a field,
Never giving yield
Sltting there with gleaming eyes
Waiting for big punpkin to arise
Bad luck if you get a stone
Like the good oId Charlie Brown
You think Linus could be right
The kids will say it's just a stupid lie

But watch out...beware -
listen...take care

In the streets on Halloween
There's something going on
No way to escape the power unknown
In the streets on Halloween
The spirits will arise
Make your choice, it's hell or pardise
Ah - it's Halloween
Ah - it's Halloween..tonight!

Listen now- we are calling you...
And there's maglc in the air
Magic in the air... on Halloween

Black is the night full of fright
You'II be missing the day
What will be here very soon
Changing your way
A knock at your door
Is it real or is it a dream
On trembling legs you open the door
And you scream. . . . .on Halloween

Darkness
Where am I now
Is there anybody out there
What has happened
Am I in heaven
Or is it hell

I can see a Light comin'
It's comin' nearer
It's shining
It's shining so bright
It's shining on me

I am the one, doom 's in my hands
Now make your choice,
redeemed or enslaved

I'll show you passion ang glory
He Is the snake
I'll give you power and abundance
He's the corrupter of man

Save me from the evil one
Give me strength to carry on
I will fight for all mankind's
deliverance and peace of mind

But watch out...beware -
listen...take care

In the streets on Halloween
There's something going on
No way to escape the power unknown
In the streets on Halloween
The spirits will arise
Make your choice, it's hell or pardise
Ah - it's Halloween
Ah - it's Halloween..tonight!

Yeah, It's Halloween

Don't backdate it

Celebrate it
Anticipate it
Yesterday's faded
Nothing can change it

Thought I would get into the spirit of halloween :devil:


GoodEvening. Ahahahaha.

I was working in the lab late one night
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
For my monster from his slab began to rise
And suddenly to my surprise

He did the mash
He did the monster mash
The monster mash
It was a graveyard smash
He did the mash
It caught on in a flash
He did the mash
He did the monster mash

From my laboratory in the castle east
To the master bedroom where the vampires feast
The ghouls all came from their humble abodes
To catch a jolt from my electrodes

They did the mash
They did the monster mash
The monster mash
It was a graveyard smash
They did the mash
It caught on in a flash
They did the mash
They did the monster mash

The zombies were having fun
The party had just begun
The guests included Wolf Man
Dracula and his son

The scene was rockin', all were digging the sounds
Eegore on chains, backed by his baying hounds
The coffin-bangers were about to arrive
With their vocal group, "The Crypt-Kicker Five"

They played the mash
They played the monster mash
The monster mash
And it was a graveyard smash
They played the mash
It caught on in a flash
They played the mash
They played the monster mash

Out from his coffin, Drac's voice did ring
Seems he was troubled by just one thing
He opened the lid and shook his fist
And said, "Whatever happened to my Transylvania twist?"

It's now the mash
It's now the monster mash
The monster mash
It's now a graveyard smash
It's now the mash
It caught on in a flash
It's now the mash
It's now the monster mash

Now everything's cool, Drac's a part of the band
And my monster mash is the hit of the land
For you, the living, this mash was meant too
When you get to my door, tell them Boris sent you

Then you can mash
Then you can monster mash
The monster mash
And do my graveyard smash
Then you can mash
You'll catch on in a flash
Then you can mash
Then you can monster mash

Vampire blues
Loudon Wainwright III

I'm a vampire baby
want to suck your blood tonight
I'm a vampire
I've got to suck your blood to night
You know them white corpuscles
They make me feel alright

What type blood you got baby
I gotta know
What type blood you got baby
I gotta know
Is it A,
A, B
or is it O?

I was born in Transylvania, but now I got a flat in London town (I bet you didn't know that did you)
I was born in Transylvania, but now I got a flat in London town
You know that drastic castle full of armadillos
Used to really bring me down man
Hey, bring me down

I'm a vampire, oh please let me come inside
Oh I'm a harmless little vampire
please let me come inside
throw away that crucifix and all that garlic
I want you to be my bride

I'm a vampire baby, don't you be a drag
Yeah I'm a vampire baby, don't be a stone drag
I like you baby when you whack me on the rack

Well I'm a vampire baby, I got to suck your blood tonight
Well I'm a vampire, I got to suck your blood tonight
You know them white corpuscles
They make me feel
They make me feel
They make me feel
alright
Woah I'm a vampire baby

(Bluuurgh, my hors d'hoevres too big for my mouth)


'Tis a very jolly little number, and although there's plenty of published versions of the lyrics out there, none of them match my version, though a few of the words I'm not sure of.

I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating life
Now I'm bound by the life you've left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

She seems dressed in all of me,
Stretched across my shame,
All the torment and the pain,
Leaked through and covered me,
I'd do anything that I could to myself,
Just to have her for myself,
Now I don't know what to do,
I don't know what to do...
And she makes me sad.

She is everything to me,
The unrequited dream,
The song that no one sings,
The unattainable,
She's a myth that I have to believe in,
All I need to make it real is one more reason,
I don't know what to do,
I don't know what to do...
And she makes me sad.

I wont let this build up inside of me...

She.... isn't real, I can't make her real...

And this is for the questions that don't have any answers
The midnight glancers and the topless dancers
The candid freaks, cars packed with speakers
The G's with the forties and the chicks with beepers
The Northern Lights and the Southern Comfort
And it don't even matter if your veins are punctured
All the crackheads, the critics, the cynics
And all my heros in the Methodone Clinic

All you b******s at the IRS
For the crooked cops and the cluttered desks
For the shots of jack and the caps of meth
Half pints of love and the fifths of stress....

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
'Cause nothing else matters

I never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we do it our way
All these words I just don't say
'Cause nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
'Cause nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do, no
Never cared for what they know, no
Never cared for what they do, no
But I know

Trust I seek but I find in you
Every day for us, something new
Open mind for a different view
'Cause nothing else matters

Never cared for what they say
Never cared for games they play
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
And I know

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
'Cause nothing else matters

End of passion play, crumbling away
I'm your source of self-destruction
Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear
Leading on your deaths construction
Taste me you will see
More is all you need
Dedicated to
How I'm killing you

Come crawling faster
Obey your Master
Your life burns faster
Obey your Master
Master

Master of Puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master

Needlework the way, never you betray
Life of death becoming clearer
Pain monopoly, ritual misery
Chop your breakfast on a mirror
Taste me you will see
More is all you need
You're dedicated to
How I'm killing you

Come crawling faster
Obey your Master
Your life burns faster
Obey your Master
Master

Master of Puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream

Master, Master, where's the dreams that I've been after?
Master, Master, you promised only lies
Laughter, laughter, all I hear or see is laughter
Laughter, laughter, laughing at my cries

Hell is worth all that, natural habitat
Just a rhyme without a reason
Neverending maze, drift on numbered days
Now your life is out of season
I will occupy
I will help you die
I will run through you
Now I rule you too

Come crawling faster
Obey your Master
Your life burns faster
Obey your Master
Master

Master of Puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream

Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream

Certe notti la macchina è calda
e dove ti porta lo decide lei.
Certe notti la strada non conta
che quello che conta è sentire chi va.
Certe notti la radio che passa Neil Young
sembra avere capito chi sei.
Certe notti somigliano a un vizio,
che tu non vuoi smettere, smettere mai.

Certe notti fai un pò di cagnara,
che sentano che non cambierai più.
Quelle notti fra cosce e zanzare
e nebbia e locali a cui dai del tu.
Certe notti c'hai qualche ferita
che qualche tua amica disinfetter*.
Certe notti coi bar che son chiusi
al primo autogrill c'è chi festegger*.

E si può restare soli
certe notti qui
che chi s'accontenta gode
così, così
Certe notti sei sveglio
o non sarai sveglio mai
ci vediamo da Mario prima o poi.

Certe notti ti senti padrone di un posto
che tanto di giorno non c'è.
Certe notti se sei fortunato
bussi alla porta di chi è come te.
C'è la notte che ti tiene tra le sue tette
un pò mamma un pò porca com'è.
Quelle notti da farci l'amore
fin quando fa male fin quando ce n'è.

E si può restare soli
certe notti qui
che chi s'accontenta gode
così, così.
Certe notti son notti
e le regaliamo a voi
tanto Mario riapre prima o poi.

Certe notti sei solo
più allegro, più ingordo,
più ingenuo e coglione che puoi.
Quelle notti son proprio quel vizio
che non voglio smettere, smettere mai.

E si può restare soli
certe notti qui
che chi s'accontenta gode
così, così
Certe notti sei sveglio
o non sarai sveglio mai
ci vediamo da Mario prima o poi

Some better nights, some better days
Hidin' in the refuse of

We've been so long waitin', for the all-time highs
We've got a damn good reason
To put your troubles aside
For all your winter sorrows
Hang them out to dry
throw it all away, gotta throw it away.
All the colourful days, my friend

No more ridin' on my love
Feel the weight is off my shoulders
As my feet become unstuck
And all the good times on which we do depend

She left without leavin' a number
Said she needed to clear her mind
He figured she'd gone back to Austin
'Cause she talked about it all the time
It was almost a year before she called him up
Three rings and an answering machine is what she got

If you're callin' 'bout the car I sold it
If this is Tuesday night I'm bowling
If you've got somethin' to sell, you're wastin' your time, I'm not
buyin'
If it's anybody else, wait for the tone,
You know what to do
And P.S. if this is Austin, I still love you

The telephone fell to the counter
She heard but she couldn't believe
What kind of man would hang on that long
What kind of love that must be
She waited three days, and then she tried again
She didn't know what she'd say,
But she heard three rings and then

If it's Friday night I'm at the ballgame
And first thing Saturday, if it don't rain
I'm headed out to the lake
And I'll be gone, all weekend long
But I'll call you back when I get home
On Sunday afternoon
And P.S. If this is Austin, I still love you

Well, this time she left her number
But not another word
Then she waited by the phone on Sunday evenin'
And this is what he heard

If you're callin' 'bout my heart
It's still yours
I should've listened to it a little more
Then it wouldn't have taken me so long to know where I belong
And by the way, boy, this is no machine you're talkin' to
Can't you tell, this is Austin, and I still love you

I still love you

Why are we here, what is life all about?
Is God really real, or is there some doubt?
Well tonight we're going to sort it all out,
For tonight it's the Meaning of Life.

What's the point of all these hoax?
Is it the chicken and egg time, are we all just yolks?
Or perhaps, we're just one of God's little jokes,
Well ca c'est the Meaning of Life.

Is life just a game where we make up the rules
While we're searching for something to say
Or are we just simple spiralling coils
Of self-replicating DNA?

What is life? What is our fate?
Is there Heaven and Hell? Do we reincarnate?
Is mankind evolving or is it too late?
Well tonight here's the Meaning of Life.

For millions this life is a sad vale of tears
Sitting round with really nothing to say
While scientists say we're just simply spiralling coils
Of self-replicating DNA.

So just why, why are we here?
And just what, what, what, what do we fear?
Well ce soir, for a change, it will all be made clear,
For this is the Meaning of Life - c'est le sens de la vie -
This is the Meaning of Life.

Beowulf
8th-November-2006, 01:37 PM
Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving
And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour,
That's orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it's reckoned,
A sun that is the source of all our power.
The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see
Are moving at a million miles a day
In an outer spiral arm, at forty thousand miles an hour,
Of the galaxy we call the 'Milky Way'.

Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars.
It's a hundred thousand light years side to side.
It bulges in the middle, sixteen thousand light years thick,
But out by us, it's just three thousand light years wide.
We're thirty thousand light years from galactic central point.
We go 'round every two hundred million years,
And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions
In this amazing and expanding universe.

The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding
In all of the directions it can whizz
As fast as it can go, at the speed of light, you know,
Twelve million miles a minute, and that's the fastest speed there is.
So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure,
How amazingly unlikely is your birth,
And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space,

ok.. am listening to this song with a smile on my face. Thought I'd share ;)

Sinead o'connor - Streets of London

"Have you seen the old man, in the closed-down market
kicking up the papers, with his worn-out shoes?
In his eyes you see no pride, hands held loosely by his side
yesterday's papers, telling yesterday's news

So how can you tell me, you're lonely
and say for you the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand,
and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something, to make you change your mind

Have you seen the old girl, who walks the streets of London
dirt in her hair, and her clothes in rags?
She's no time for talking, she just keeps right on walking
Carrying her home, in two carrier bags

So how can you tell me, you're lonely
and say for you the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand,
and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something, to make you change your mind

In the all-night cafe, at a quarter past eleven
same old man sitting there, on his own
Looking at the world, over the rim of his tea-cup
Each day lasts an hour, then he wanders home alone

So how can you tell me, you're lonely
and say for you the sun don't shine?
Let me take you by the hand,
and lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something, to make you change your mind

I'll show you something, to make you change your mind"

You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away

Just like I predicted, We're at the point of no return
We can go backwards, and no corners have been turned.
I can't control it, if I sink or if I swim
'cause I chose the water that I'm in.

[BRIDGE]
And it makes no difference who is right or wrong
I deserve much more than this
'Cause there's only one thing I want

[CHORUS]
If it's not what you're made of
You're not what I'm looking for
You where willing but unable to give me anymore
There's no way, You're changing, cause somethings will just never be mine,
You're not love this time ... but it's allright.

I hear you talking, but your words don't mean a thing.
I doubt you ever put your heart into anything.
It's not much to ask for, to get back what I put in,
But I chose the waters that I'm in.

[BRIDGE]
And it makes no difference who is right or wrong
I deserve much more than this
'Cause there's only one thing I want

[CHORUS]
If it's not what you're made of
You're not what I'm looking for
You where willing but unable to give me anymore
There's no way, You're changing, cause somethings will just never be mine
You're not love this time ... but it's allright.

What's your definition of the one
What you really want him to become?
No matter what I sacrifice it's still never enough

Just like I predicted
I will sink before I swim
'cause these are the waters that I'm in

[CHORUS]
If it's not what you're made of
You're not what I'm looking for
You where willing but unable to give me anymore
There's no way, You're changing, cause somethings will just never be mine
You're not love this time
You're not love this time
You're not love this time ...

If I could tell the world just one thing
It would be that we're all ok
And not to worry because worry is wasteful
and useless in times like these
I will not be made useless
I won't be idled with despair
I will gather myself around my faith
for light does the darkness most fear

My hands are small, I know,
but they're not yours they are my own
but they're not yours they are my own
and I am never broken

Poverty stole your golden shoes
but it didn't steal your laughter
And heartache came to visit me
but i knew it wasn't ever after
We will fight, not out of spite
for someone must stand up for what's right
cause where there's a man who has no voice
there ours shall go singing

In the end only kindness matters

Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted-One moment
Would you capture it or just let it slip?
Yo

His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin
What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
He's chokin, how everybody's jokin now
The clock's run out, time's up over, bloah!
Snap back to reality, Oh there goes gravity
Oh, there goes Rabbit, he choked
He's so mad, but he won't give up that
Easy, no
He won't have it , he knows his whole back's to these ropes
It don't matter, he's dope
He knows that, but he's broke
He's so stagnant he knows
When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's
Back to the lab again yo
This whole rhapsody
He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him


You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime you betta
{Lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime you betta}(2)

His soul's escaping, through this hole that is gaping
This world is mine for the taking
Make me king, as we move toward a, new world order
A normal life is borin, but superstardom's close to post mortem
It only grows harder, only grows hotter
He blows it's all over these hoes is all on him
Coast to coast shows, he's known as the globetrotter
Lonely roads, God only knows
He's grown farther from home, he's no father
He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
But hold your nose cuz here goes the cold water
His hoes don't want him no mo, he's cold product
They moved on to the next schmoe who flows
He nose dove and sold nada
So the soap opera is told and unfolds
I suppose it's old partna', but the beat goes on
Da da dum da dum da da

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime you betta
Lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime you betta

No more games, I'ma change what you call rage
Tear this motha****in roof off like 2 dogs caged
I was playin in the beginnin, the mood all changed
I been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage
But I kept rhymin and stepwritin the next cypher
Best believe somebody's payin the pied piper
All the pain inside amplified by the, fact
That I can't get by with my 9 to, 5
And I can't provide the right type of life for my family
Cuz man, these goddam food stamps don't buy diapers
And it's no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer, this is my life
And these times are so hard and it's getting even harder
Tryin to feed and water my seed, plus
teeter-totter caught up between being a father and a pre madona
Baby mama drama's screamin on and
Too much for me to wanna
Stay in one spot, another day in monotony's
gotten me to the point, I'm like a snail
I've got to formulate a plot or end up in jail or shot
Success is my only motha****in option, failure's not
Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go
I cannot grow old in Salem's lot
So here I go it's my shot.
Feet fail me not, this may be the only opportunity that I got

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime you betta
Lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime you betta

You can do anything you set your mind to, man

People say shes crazy
She got diamonds on the soles of her shoes
Well, thats one way to lose these walking blues
Diamonds on the soles of her shoes

She was physically forgotten
Then she slipped into my pocket with my car keys
She said "You've taken me for granted because I please you,
Wearing these diamonds"

{Chorus}

She makes the sign of a teaspoon
He makes the sign of a wave
The poor boy changes clothes and puts on after-shave
To compensate for his ordinary shoes

And she said "Honey, take me dancing!"
But they ended up by sleeping in a doorway
By the bodegas and the lights on Upper Broadway
Wearing diamonds on the soles of their shoes...

What a profound effect this song had on me...


GO

I remember
All the things that you did to me:
How you played with my sanity,
Would you leave me be?
Would you let me live my life?

I remember,
As I drown in my memories,
How I vowed you would not break me.
Did you think me so weak?
I’d still hold my head up high

Do you remember
How you made your worst enemy?
Were you so blind that you could not see
The change in me?
Oh, I’d learned to fly...



Father
The worm has turned, now it’s you who needs me.
Will your conscience not let you sleep,
Not leave you be?
Can’t you find your piece mind?

Father
I don’t want you apologies.
Your recognition I don’t need,
Can’t you see?
I finally learned to fly

Father
I’ve decided to set you free:
In your hand I place the key,
I beg of you leave.
Go find your piece of mind

Wherever You Are

Wherever you are,
Its 3 A.m. and I’m awake,
Imagine the light,
Upon your blue transparent face,
Through coloured glass,
It filters down to warmest red,
I’m the one who reads your mind,
See my life in your design,
True companion at your side,
You’re gracious and good,
When all around is turning bad,
Restless and brave,
When laid upon suburban grass,
Your timing is right,
Remove the sad persistent thought,
Hold the course,
I’m the one who reads your mind,
Sees my life in your design,
True companion at your side,
I’ll give you something,
for when I’m not around,
to make you smile,
and if you think it then it must be true,
if only I could make it through,
climb into my bed,
wherever you are,
wherever you are,
your timing is good,
remove the sad persistent thought,
hold the course,
I’m the one who reads your mind,
Sees my life in your design,
True companion at your side,
I’ll leave you something for when I’m not around,
To make you smile,
Outside that wasteland,
And if only I could make it through,
If you think it then it must be true,
Wherever you are

I thought I saw a man brought to life
He was warm, he came around like he was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry
Well you couldnt be that man I adored
You dont seem to know, dont seem to care what your heart is for
But I dont know him anymore
Theres nothing where he used to lie
My conversation has run dry
Thats whats going on, nothings fine Im torn

Im all out of faith, this is how I feel
Im cold and I am shamed lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed into something real
Im wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
Youre a little late, Im already torn

So I guess the fortune tellers right
Should have seen just what was there and not some holy light
To crawl beneath my veins and now
I dont care, I have no luck, I dont miss it all that much
Theres just so many things that I cant touch, Im torn

Im all out of faith, this is how I feel
Im cold and I am shamed lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed into something real
Im wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
Youre a little late, Im already torn. torn.

Theres nothing where he used to lie
My inspiration has run dry
Thats whats going on, nothings right, Im torn

Im all out of faith, this is how I feel
Im cold and I am shamed lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed into something real
Im wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
Im all out of faith, this is how I feel
Im cold and Im ashamed bound and broken on the floor
Youre a little late, Im already torn

Slow down you crazy child
You're so ambitious for a juvenile
But then if you're so smart tell me why
Are you still so afraid?
Where's the fire, what's the hurry about?
You better cool it off before you burn it out
You got so much to do and only
So many hours in a day

But you know that when the truth is told
That you can get what you want
Or you can just get old
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through
When will you realize...Vienna waits for you

Slow down you're doing fine
You can't be everything you want to be
Before your time
Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight (tonight)
Too bad but it's the life you lead
You're so ahead of yourself
That you forgot what you need
Though you can see when you're wrong
You know you can't always see when you're right(you're right)

You got your passion you got your pride
But don't you know that only fools are satisfied?
Dream on but don't imagine they'll all come true
When will you realize
Vienna waits for you

Slow down you crazy child
Take the phone off the hook and disappear for a while
It's alright you can afford to lose a day or two
When will you realize...
Vienna waits for you.

And you know that when the truth is told
That you can get what you want
Or you can just get old
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through
Why don't you realize...Vienna waits for you
When will you realize...Vienna waits for you

And I'd give up forever to touch you
'cause I know that you feel me somehow
Youre the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I dont want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'cause sooner or later its over
I just dont want to miss you tonight

And I dont want the world to see me
'cause I dont think that they'd understand
When everythings made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you cant fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know youre alive

And I dont want the world to see me

When everythings made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

Being an angel
When the devil in your heart
Won’t set you free
It must be hard
Being an angel
When the world has let you down
Imperfection all around
Hey look at me

Gentlemen, gentlemen please!
Can you please support the notion
Of what I’m saying here
That the person here in question
Must be an angel here on earth
If they can see a human being
For what a human being’s really worth
Gentlemen please!

And no perfect rhyme
For most of the time
That’s what we’re looking for…..

And ev'ry task you undertake

That...
A Spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
The medicine go down-wown
The medicine go down
Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
In a most delightful way

A robin feathering his nest
Has very little time to rest
While gathering his bits of twine and twig
Though quite intent in his pursuit
He has a merry tune to toot
He knows a song will move the job along - for

A Spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
The medicine go down-wown
The medicine go down
Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
In a most delightful way

The honey bee that fetch the nectar
From the flowers to the comb
Never tire of ever buzzing to and fro
Because they take a little nip
From ev'ry flower that they sip
And hence (And hence),
They find (They find)
Their task is not a grind.

Ah-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h ah!

You wrote 'You're Gorgeous' on it.
You took me to your rented motor car and filmed me on the bonnet.
You got me to hitch my knees up and pulled my legs apart.
You took an instamatic camera and and pulled my sleeves around my heart.

Because you're gorgeous I'd do anything for you.
Because you're gorgeous our love will see us through.
Because you're gorgeous I'd do anything for you.
Because you're gorgeous I know you'll get me through.

You said my clothes were sexy, you tore away my shirt.
You rubbed an ice-cube on my chest snapped me 'til it hurt.

You promised to put me in a magazine on every table in every lounge.

Come rolling into town unaware
Of the power that you have over me
And what am I to do
With hello how are you
Nothing’s ever said that should be

And I don’t care about you
If you don’t care about me
We can go our separate ways
If you want to
The ties of love are strong
But they can be undone
And we’ll go our separate ways
If you want to

I’m turning into me, not you
I can change my mind not my blood
And not all who love are blind
Some of us are just too kind
We forgive too much
And never speak our minds

And I don’t care about you
If you don’t care about me
We can go our separate ways
If you want to
The ties of love are strong
But they can be undone
And we’ll go our separate ways
If you want to

I’m giving up on you
And I’ll turn my heart to something new
And we’ll go our separate ways
If you want to

I stood out in the rain
Holding my breath
Waiting for you
You never came
You broke my heart
You broke my heart
I know who’s to blame
You’re to blame

And I don’t care about you
If you don’t care about me
We can go our separate ways
If you want to
The ties of love are strong
But they can be undone
And we’ll go our separate ways
If you want to

Half as much as I do
And I never thought I'd feel this way
The way I feel

Every night, every day
I know that it's you I need
To take the blues away

It must be love, love, love
It must be love, love, love
Nothing more, nothing less
Love is the best

How can it be that we can
Say so much without words?
Bless you and bless me
Bless the bees
And the birds
I've got to be near you
Every night, every day
I couldn't be happy
Any other way

It must be love, love, love
It must be love, love, love
Nothing more, nothing less

Spend all your time waiting
for that second chance
for a break that would make it okay
there's always some reason
to feel not good enough
and it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
oh beautiful release
memory seeps from my veins
let me be empty
and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight

in the arms of the angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort there
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here

Watch me ride:
I'm a sexual animal, eat you like a cannibal,
Crammed full of energy,
I'm inflammable,
Yeah, I finish my beer
So come here and get nice while I lick you here,
Put your legs over there and kinda swing on the chair,
I swear you look wicked with your panties in your hair,
Eyes half closed,
Cute little nose,
And like a pound of self-raising I just rose and rose,
Stepped out of my clothes started doing the right thing,
I was pumping and she was biting,
Yeah, lightning flashed and thunder roared,
The girl had her finger on my keyboard,
Oh lord, this is gonna last all night,
If lovin' you is wrong I don't wanna be right.

If lovin' you is wrong, I don't wanna be right.

If I come first well that's the worse scenario,
I push you harder than Sanchez Vicario,
I mean it, 20th Century Fox on the screening,
One take like an earthquake make the bed brake,
We be famous worldwide overnight
And get tired of magazine articles we're forced to write.
I take a delight in making the bed springs sing all night,
If lovin' you is wrong I don't wanna be right.

If lovin' you is wrong, I don't wanna be right.

I give a massage,
Skin supercharge,
Imagination on turbo situation large,
Sometimes you handle me kinda course,
Like a horse, the bed a wrecked
To keep from flying.
I got my teeth in her neck...

If lovin' you is wrong, I don't wanna be right.

Don't remember that particular Madness remix.. however.. since Lust is on your mind will this one suffice?

Madness - "House of Fun"

"Good morning miss
Can I help you son?
Sixteen today
And up for fun
I'm a big boy now
Or so they say
So if you'll serve
I'll be on my way

Box of balloons
With the feather-light touch
Pack of party-poppers
That pop in the night
A toothbrush and hairspray
Plastic grin
Miss Clay on all corners
Has just walked in

Welcome to the House of Fun
Now I've come of age
Welcome to the House of Fun
Welcome to the lion's den
Temptation's on his way
Welcome to the House of

N-n-n-n-n-n-no no miss
You misunderstood
Sixteen big boy
Full pint in my manhood
I'm up to date
And the date's today
So if you'll serve
I'll be on my way

Welcome to the House of Fun
Now I've come of age
Welcome to the lion's den
Temptation's on his way
Welcome to the House of (Fun)

I'm sorry son
But we don't stock
Party gimmicks
In this shop
Try the House of Fun
It's quicker if you run
This is a chemist's
Not a joke shop!

Party hats
Simple enough clear
Comprehende savvy understand
Do you hear?
A pack of party hats
With the coloured tips
Too late!
Gorgon heard gossip
Well hello Joe, hello Miss Clay
Many happy returns from the day

Welcome to the House of Fun
Now I've come of age
Welcome to the House of Fun
Welcome to the lion's den
Temptation's on his way
Welcome to the House of Fun
Welcome to the House of Fun..."

Don't really understand what it's about though :innocent: :whistle: :wink:

I believe the sun should never set upon an argument
I believe we place our happiness in other people's hands
I believe that junk food tastes so good because it's bad for you
I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do
I believe that beauty magazines promote low self esteem
I believe I'm loved when I'm completely by myself alone

I believe you can't control or choose your sexuality
I believe that trust is more important than monogamy
I believe your most attractive features are your heart and soul
I believe that family is worth more than money or gold

I believe the struggle for financial freedom is unfair
I believe the only ones who disagree are millionaires

I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness
I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed
I believe that God does not endorse TV evangelists
I believe in love surviving death into eternity

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye

We'll do it all
Everything
On our own

We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Those three words
Are said too much
But they're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads

I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see

I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Oops, up on the wrong side of the bed
I’m in a bad mood, brooding like Achilles type attitude
Including a short fuse,
shitfaced, and pissy pants,
you better keep your distance
My panties are twisted,
Anti resistant,
red hot and bothered,
blistered and bloodshot,
rotten and dirty,
Disturbed is the word,
I’m down in the dumps,
perturbed if you prefer,
I’m grumpy as something,
I’m one grouchy grampa,
dusty and disgruntled and crusty,
You better not test me, trust me,
I’m a flustered old bastard,
my feathers are ruffled,
So back off buster, you best not stress me,
just don’t bug me,
I’m hungry and ugly,
so don’t try to hug me, please and thank you,
I’m cranky for some reason,
maybe I’m crazy.
A phase I suppose, it’s just one of those days,
it comes and it goes.
I probably just need a rest,
just a little PMS, I don’t mean to be a pest,
so leave me alone, I’m a little low on patience,
don’t ask questions, I’m not open to suggestions.
I’m hoping to cope with it
myself, and I’m sure
it’ll help if I practice and act immature.
I’m a prickly cactus, a barbed wire bulldog,
a bump on a log, guard ball, I’m god awful.

I don’t wanna take a pill
I don’t wanna take a walk
I don’t wanna go to sleep
I don’t wanna have a talk

This is my grumpy song,
For when there’s something wrong,
I don’t know what it is,
It shouldn’t be but it is (x3)

Don’t wanna take a pill
I don’t wanna take a walk
I don’t wanna go to sleep
I don’t wanna have a talk

You know how I feel
Sun in the sky
You know how I feel
Reeds driftin' on by
You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good
I'm feeling good

Fish in the sea
You know how I feel
River running free
You know how I feel
Blossom on the tree
You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies all havin' fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when the day is done that’s what I mean
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me
For me

Stars when you shine
You know how I feel
Scent of the pine
You know how I feel
Oooh freedom is mine
And I know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
It’s a new life
For me

And
I'm feeling good (x3)

Ça Ira by Roger Waters


Scene 5
"The Fall of the Bastille"

RINGMASTER
Birds flock, when winter settles in
The Harlequin with dunce's cap and silver horn
All mournful, mocking eye and painted tear,
Has seen it all before
The sparrows hurl in the face of glazed imperium,
Then stunned, affronted, fall
Then, picking up perch braggart on the wire and
Launch towards the south, towards the land of fire

REVOLUTIONARY PRIEST
To freeze in the dead of night
To burn in a law divine
Deep in the crucible brine
The sorrow and the rage entwine
And coil and climb towards the light
The quill is poised above the page
Words like falling rain slake the thirst and dowse the flames
Cooling in the crucible and idea forms
A nugget of belief in the hearts of the poor
That maybe in the dawn's new light
They have a right to the law

RINGMASTER
So to the streets in the pouring rain
The dispossessed and the drunk and the lame
Gathered in bands and took the law into their own hands
Like the daring young man on the flying trapeze
Like birds flying into a storm
They took the great leap
And launched themselves into the void

CHORUS
We broke into the arsenal, Les Invalides
Found cannonball and powder, everything we need
We marched on the Bastille
The home of tyranny
Killed the jailer
And set two madmen free

RINGMASTER
When you have an army of your own
You get to choose
Who will live
Who will die
Who will win
Who will lose

TROUBLEMAKER
A piece of prison stone
Is all I have to call my own
Insight to see the other side
Strength and weakness, love and pride
Is all I have to leave my child
If my child survives
He'll judge men by their deeds and not their smiles
He'll keep his taste of good red wine
His pride, his friends, his lust for life
These are the things that will avail him
If my child survives...



Splendid opera! Roger is great! :respect:

Where we start by David Gilmour


Where we start is where we end
We step out sweetly with nothing planned
Along by the river we feed bread to the swans
And then over the footbridge to the woods beyond

We walk ourselves weary, you and I
There's just this moment

I light a campfire away from the path
We lie in the bluebells, a woodpecker laughs

Time passes slowly our hearts entwined
All of the dark times left behind

The day is done
The sun sinks low
We fold up the blanket, it's time to go

We walk ourselves weary, arm in arm
Back through the twilight
Home again

We waltz in the moonlight and the embers glow
So much behind us
Still far to go



David is great as well! :respect:

Perhaps Love, by John Denver.:awe:

(Placido Domingo)
Perhaps love is like a resting place
A shelter from the storm
It exists to give you comfort
It is there to keep you warm
And in those times of trouble
When you are most alone
The memory of love will bring you home

(John Denver)
Perhaps love is like a window
Perhaps an open door
It invites you to come closer
It wants to show you more
And even if you lose yourself
And don't know what to do
The memory of love will see you through

(Placido Domingo)
Oh, Love to some is like a cloud
To some as strong as steel

(John Denver)
For some a way of living
For some a way to feel

(Placido Domingo)
And some say love is holding on
And some say letting go
And some say love is everything
And some say they don't know

(John starts joined by Placido)
Perhaps love is like the ocean
Full of conflict, full of pain
Like a fire when it's cold outside
Thunder when it rains
If I should live forever
And all my dreams come true
My memories of love will be of you

(Placido Domingo)
And some say love is holding on
And some say letting go

(John Denver)
And some say love is everything
Some say they don't know

(John starts joined by Placido)
Perhaps love is like the ocean
Full of conflict, full of pain
Like a fire when it's cold outside
Or thunder when it rains
If I should live forever
And all my dreams come true
My memories of love will be of you
(Placido Domingo)
Perhaps love is like a resting place

Sunshine on my shoulders- John Denver

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost always makes me high

If I had a day that I could give you
I’d give to you a day just like today
If I had a song that I could sing for you
I’d sing a song to make you feel this way

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost always makes me high

If I had a tale that I could tell you
I’d tell a tale sure to make you smile
If I had a wish that I could wish for you
I’d make a wish for sunshine all the while

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost always makes me high
Sunshine almost all the time makes me high
Sunshine almost always

Ooo, you make me live now honey
Ooo, you make me live
You're the best friend

I've been with you such a long time
You're my sunshine
And I want you to know
That my feelings are true
I really love you
You're my best friend
Ooo, you make me live
I've been wandering round
But I still come back to you
In rain or shine
You've stood by me girl
I'm happy, happy at home
You're my best friend.
You're the first one
When things turn out bad
You know I'll never be lonely
You're my only one
And I love
The things that you do
You're my best friend
Ooo, you make me live.
I'm happy, happy at home
You're my best friend
You're my best friend
Ooo, you make me live
You, you're my best friend.

Stevie Wonder - Ribbon in the Sky

Oh so long, for this night I prayed
That a star, could guide you my way
To share with, me this special day
There's a ribbon in the sky, for our love.

If allowed, may I touch your hand
And if please, may I once again
So that you, too will understand
There's a ribbon in the sky for our love.

This is not a coincidence
and far more, than a lucky chance
But what is, that was always meant
Is a ribbon in the sky for our love.

We can't lose, with God on our side
We'll find strength, in each tear we cry
From now on, it will be you and I
And a ribbon in the sky
A ribbon in the sky
A ribbon in the sky, for our love.:flower:

baby you on my mind,
And I don't know why,
I got this felling inside,
Can't you see,
Honey you are for me,
We were meant to be

Dancin' in the moonlight
Gazing at the stars so bright,
Holding you until the sunrise
Sleeping until the midnight

[Chorus: (x3)]
Dancin' is what to do,
Dancin's when I think of you,
Dancin's what makes my soul,
Dancin's what makes me whole

Everytime when I look in your eyes
That smile was crying that you were mine
Do you know, your love is true I know,
You are the best thing that has happened to me

Dancin' in the moonlight
Gazing at the stars so bright,
Holding you until the sunrise
Sleeping until the midnight

[Chorus (x4)]
Dancin' is what to do,
Dancin's when I think of you,
Dancin's what makes my soul,
Dancin's what makes me whole

Get up on the floor,
Dancin' all night long,
Get up on the floor,
Dancin' till the break of dawn,
Get up on the floor,
Dancin' till the break of dawn,
Get up on the floor,
Dancin' till the break of, dancin'

Beautiful dawn
Lights up the shore for me.
There is nothing else in the world,
I'd rather wake up and see (with you).
Beautiful dawn
I'm just chasing time again.
Thought I would die a lonely man, in endless night.

But now I'm high; running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me.

Beautiful dawn
Melt with the stars again.
Do you remember the day when my journey began?
Will you remember the end (of time)?
Beautiful dawn
You're just blowing my mind again.
Thought I was born to endless night, until you shine.

High; running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me.

Will you be my shoulder when I'm grey and older?
Promise me tomorrow starts with you,
Getting high; running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me

I've been looking in the mirror for so long.
That I've come to believe my soul's on the other side.
All the little pieces falling, shatter.
Shards of me,
Too sharp to put back together.
Too small to matter,
But big enough to cut me into so many little pieces.
If I try to touch her,
And I bleed,
I bleed,
And I breathe,
I breathe no more.

Take a breath and I try to draw from my spirits well.
Yet again you refuse to drink like a stubborn child.
Lie to me,
Convince me that I've been sick forever.
And all of this,
Will make sense when I get better.
But I know the difference,
Between myself and my reflection.
I just can't help but to wonder,
Which of us do you love.
So I bleed,
I bleed,
And I breathe,
I breathe no...
Bleed,
I bleed,
And I breathe,
I breathe,
I breathe-
I breathe no more.

"I’m drunk off your kiss
For another night in a row
This is becoming too routine for me
But I did not mean to lead you on
And it’s all right to pretend
That we still talk
It’s just for show, isn’t it
It’s my fault that it fell apart

Just maybe
You need this
And I didn’t mean to
Lead you on

You were everything I wanted
But I just can't finish what I've started
There’s no room left here on my back
It was damaged long ago
Though you swear that you are true
I still pick my friends over you
(My friends over you)

Please tell me everything,
That you think that I should know
About all the plans we made
When I was never to be found
And it’s all right to forget
That we still talk
Its just for fun, isn’t it
It’s my fault that it fell apart

Cuz maybe you need this
And I didn’t mean to
Lead you on

You were everything I wanted
But I just can't finish what I've started
There’s no room left here on my back
It was damaged long ago
Though you swear that you are true
I still pick my friends over you
(My friends over you)

Just maybe you need this
You need this…
And I didn’t mean to
Lead you on

You were everything I wanted
But I just can't finish what I've started
There’s no room left here on my back
It was damaged long ago
Though you swear that you are true
I still pick my friends over you

The motor in my head turns
Wanting you for such a long time
In my mind, a heart, a lesson to learn

Do do do do do do do do

Do do do do do do do do

And you smell like,
How angels oughta smell
And you look like
You're ready to go

So hold my hand
I'll take you everywhere
Anywhere
You wanna go

The way your words keep me in a line
I know what I'm here for
Waking up to the green of your eyes
It's something I'll get used to (Oh!)

Just good ol' boys,
Never meanin' no harm,
Beats all you've ever saw, been in trouble with the law since the day they was born.

Straight'nin' the curve,
Flat'nin' the hills.
Someday the moutain might get 'em, but the law never will.

Makin' their way,
The only way they know how,
That's just a little bit more than the law will allow.

Just good ol' boys,
Wouldn't change if they could,
Fightin' the system like a true modern day Robin Hood.

Leaving shadows in the night,
Don't be afraid,
Wipe that fear from your eyes.
The desperate love,
Keeps on driving you wrong,
Don't be afraid,
You're not alone.

You can run with us,
We've got everything you need,
Run with us,
We are free.
Come with us,
I see passion in your eyes,
Run with us.

When the cold wind blows,
Turn your cover to the cold,
Don't be ashamed,
If you need someone to hold.
If you're sinking in quicksand,
And it's dragging you down,
And you feel you're going under,
We'll be around.

You can run with us,
We've got everything you need,
Run with us,
We are free.
Come with us,
I see passion in your eyes,
Run with us.

And you're behind closed doors,
All alone by yourself,
And you're longing inside,
To be somebody else.
You pick up the telephone,
And there's no one on the line,
Don't be afraid,
'Cause there's still time.

You can run with us,
We've got everything you need,
Run with us,
We are free.
Come with us,
I see passion in your eyes,
Run with us.


Run with us - Lisa Lougheed

Crosby, Stills and Nash - "Our House"

"I'll light the fire
You put the flowers in the vase
That you bought today

Staring at the fire
For hours and hours
While I listen to you
Play your love songs
All night long for me
Only for me

Come to me now
And rest your head for just five minutes
Everything is good
Such a cosy room
The windows are illuminated
By the sunshine through them
Fiery gems for you
Only for you

Our house is a very, very fine house
With two cats in the yard
Life used to be so hard
Now everything is easy
'Cause of you
And our la,la,la, la,la, la, la, la, la, la, la.....

Our house is a very, very fine house
With two cats in the yard
Life used to be so hard
Now everything is easy
'Cause of you
And Our

I'll light the fire
And you place the flowers in the jar
That you bought today"

Of course, when I first used to listen to it I was convinced the song started

"I'll light the fire
You put the flowers in it".. :Blush:

Just have a little patience

I'm still hurting from a love I lost,
I'm feeling your frustration.
Any minute all the pain will stop.
Just hold me close inside your arms tonight,
don't be too hard on my emotions

(Chorus)
Cause I need time.
My heart has no feeling.
So while I'm still healing,
Just try and have a little patience.

I really wanna start over again,
I know you wanna be my salvation.
The one that I can always depend.

I'll try to be strong. Believe me,
I'm trying to move on,
It's complicated but understand me.

Cause I need time,
My heart is numb has no feeling,
So while I'm still healing,
Just try and have a little patience,

Yeah, have a little patience, Yeah

Cause these scars run so deep,
It's been hard,
But I have to believe in me.

Have a little patience,
Have a little patience,

Woah, Cause I, I just need time,
My heart is numb has no feeling,
So while I'm still healing,
just try, and have a little patience,

Have a little patience,
My heart is numb has no feeling,
So while I'm still healing
just try and have a little... Patience

T'is the gift to be simple
T'is the gift to be free
T'is the gift to come down
Where we ought to be
And when we find ourselves
In the place just right
T'll be in the valley of love and delight

When true simplicity is gained
To bow and to bend
We will not be ashamed
To turn, to turn will be our delight
Till by turning, turning
We come round right

I'll be seeing you
In all the old familiar places
That this heart of mine embraces
All day through.

In that small cafe;
The park across the way;
The children's carousel;
The chestnut trees;
The wishin' well.

I'll be seeing you
In every lovely summer's day;
In every thing that's light and gay.
I'll always think of you that way.

I'll find you
In the morning sun
And when the night is new.
I'll be looking at the moon,
But I'll be seeing you.

I'll be seeing you
In every lovely summer's day;
In every thing that's light and gay.
I'll always think of you that way.

I'll find you
In the morning sun
And when the night is new.
I'll be looking at the moon,
But I'll be seeing you.

Cruel to the eye
I see the way he makes you smile
Cruel to the eye
Watching him hold what used to be mine

Why did I lie?
What did I walk away to find
Oooohhh...why...oooh -- why...

[CHORUS]
I... can't breathe easy
Can't sleep at night
Till you're by my side
No I... can't breathe easy
I can't dream yet another dream
Without you lying next to me
There's no air

Curse me inside
For every word that caused you to cry
Curse me inside

I won't forget, no i won't baby,
I don't know why (don't know why)
I left the one i was looking to find

Ooh -- why...ooooh, why -- why...

[CHORUS]

Out of my mind
Nothing makes sense anymore
I want you back in my life

That's all I'm breathing for

Ooooooohhhhh -- tell me why

Oh won't you tell me why

I can't dream yet another dream
Without you lying next to me
There's no air

I... can't breathe easy
Can't sleep at night

Till you're by my side

Coz i can't breathe easy

I can't dream yet another dream
Without you lying next to me
There's no air

There's no air.

I want you to smile within,
Oh, a moment on the arm of wonder.
What, what more can I ask,
than for you to look at me, whisper to me,
show me you'll be wrapped about me.
Tell me, tell me, tell me everything
you and I can share within,
Oh, the darker moments vanish into air.
Breathe me, I am air
Touch me, I am sky,
Breathe me, like the first time.
I hold you in my heart
Touch you, with my eyes,
Breathe me, like the first time.
What, what more can I ask
than for you to look at me, wondrously, and
say "I love you", say you love me.
Tell me, tell me everything
you and I can feel within
Oh, the darker moments vanish into air.
Breathe me, I am air
Touch me, I am sky,
Breathe me, like the first time.
I hold you in my heart
Touch you, with my eyes,
Breathe me, like the first time

George Benson & Aretha Franklin - Love all the Hurt Away.

I see myself in your face a reflection of pain.
Somebody made you cry over and over again.
Still you and I made it through all of this for a reason
Could it be that we create an affair for all seasons.

Cos you and I were meant to be lovers
The search is over for us theres no other
We're finally at the rainbows end
Maybe together we'll mend all the cracks in our heart & love all the hurt away.

You are all the things that that I hoped and I preyed for
You gave your love and I'm happy like never before
You be my strength and I'll be your shoulder to lean on
We'll build a world & fill the whole place with our love songs.

Psycho
[Performed by Teddy Thompson; Words and Music by Leon Payne]


Can Mary fry some fish, mama
I'm as hungry as can be
Oh lord, how I wish, mama
You could stop the baby cryin'
'Cause my head is killing me

I saw my ex again last night mama
She was at the dance at Miller's store
She was with that Jackie White mama
I killed them both
And they're buried under Jacob's sycamore

You think I'm psycho don't you mama
I didn't mean to break your cup
You think I'm psycho don't you mama
You better let 'em lock me up


Oh, don't hand me Johnny's pup mama
As I might squeeze him too tight
I'm havin' crazy dreams again mama
So let me tell you 'bout last night
I woke up in Johnny's room mama
Standing right there by his bed
With my hands around his throat mama
Wishing both of us were dead
You think I'm psycho don't you mama
I just killed Johnny's pup

You think I'm psycho don't you mama
You'd better let 'em lock me up


Oh you recall that little girl mama
I believe her name was Betty Clark
Oh don't tell me that she's dead mama
'Cause I just saw her in the park
We were sitting on a bench mama
Thinking of a game to play Seems
I was holding a wrench mama
Then my mind just walked away

You think I'm psycho don't you mama
I didn't mean to break your cup
You think I'm psycho don't you mama
Mama why don't you get up?

Lady, morning's just a moment away
And I'm without you once again
You laughed at me
You said you never needed me
I wonder if you need me now

[Chorus:]
So many dreams that flew away
So many words we didn't say
Two people lost in a storm
Where did we go?
Where'd we go?

We lost what we both had found
You know we let each other down
But then most of all
I do love you
Still!

[Chorus]

We played the games that people play
We made our mistakes along the way
Somehow I know deep in my heart
You needed me
'cause I needed you so desperatly!
We were too blind to see
But then most of all
I do love you
Still!

Are you ready boots? Start walking. Let’s go.

You keep saying you got something for me. Well officer, I don’t mind to say you do. Now you’re looking right where I thought you’d be looking. Legs come handy when laws in front of you.

Chorus:

These boots are made for walking, that’s just what they’ll do. One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you.

You believe you stopped me for a reason. And I’m pretending my bending’s just for fun. You keep playing where I got you playing, yeah; these double-d initials work to run

Chorus

I’m the girl with the good ol’ boys; don’t mean you no harm, just have my way with hazard county charm. Ain’t a crime in having a little fun.

Southern stride, I got my sexy eyes, where my boots at, ha.

Strut yourself, come on, hey ya’ll come on, come see something, uh huh, uh huh, can’t touch, can I get a hand clap, for the way I work my back.

Tick tock, all around the clock, drop it, push ya tush like that, can I get a Sooey, can I get a Yee-haw!

You keep thinking what you shouldn’t be thinking. Another two buttons down till you’re kissing the ground. I’m a gonna send you back home baby crying. But Uncle Jessie he sure is gonna be proud.

Chorus x2

Come on boots! Start walking. Come on ladies!

You're too far for me
If you're in the next room
From grey to blue
I'm missing you

Just a phone call or a letter
Makes me feel so much better
From grey to blue
I'm missing you

Now you're gone
I'll think of you
and serenade
This empty room

Miss your smiling eyes
You know you're my paradise
From grey to blue
I'm missing you

Now you're gone
I'll think of you

This empty room

As we waltz upon the carpet
Of love's caravan
From grey to blue
I'm missing you.

Watch the sunrise
Say your goodbyes
Off we go
Some conversation
No contemplation
Hit the road

Car overheats
Jump out of my seat
On the side of the highway baby
Our road is long
Your hold is strong
Please don't ever let go Oh No

[Chorus:]
I know I don't know you
But I want you so bad
Everyone has a secret
But can they keep it
Oh No they can't

I'm driving fast now
Don't think I know how to go slow
Where you at now
I feel around
There you are

Cool these engines
Calm these jets
I ask you how hot can it get
And as you wipe off beads of sweat
Slowly you say "I'm not there yet!"

The worst cover in the world...Alas No, it is not the worst cover in the world. I was at a Jam session in croydon when some session musicians and a "big Fat Mama" singer sang the best version I have ever heard of "Summertime". There was a standing ovation, but nobody wanted to get up and try and follow it. Only somebody with absolutely no musical appreciation whatsover, or even in to the realms of negativity, would have tried. That person was there and made her singeing (sic) debut .:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

An orange on the table
Your dress upon the floor
The two of us upon your bed
Who could ask for more?
Through traffic jams, past caravans
I'd travel the whole night through

But I would give up everything
Just to be home with you
I would give up everything
To be at home with you

I'd give up all my silver
I'd give up all my gold
And anything that I had left
Would be burnt or sold
Through driving rain, through fear and pain
I'd travel the whole night through

But I would give up everything
Just to be home with you
I would give up everything
To be at home with you

And I will wait in blue town
Where seagulls end their trip
Sitting in the sailor
Waiting for a ship
Across seven seas, too far from me
Sail the ocean black and blue
And I would give up everything
Just to be home with you

And I would give up everything
To be home with you.

Just to be home with you - Shane McGowan, Sam Brown and Jools Holland

I'm useless but
Not for long
The future is coming on


I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine, in a bag
I'm useless,but not for long
The future is coming on
I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine, in a bag
I'm useless, but not for long
The future is coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on


Yeah... Ha Ha!
Finally someone let me out of my cage
Now, time for me is nothing cos I'm counting no age
Now I couldn't be there
Now you shouldn't be scared
I'm good at repairs
And I'm under each snare
Intangible
Bet you didn't think so I command you to
Panoramic view
Look I'll make it all manageable
Pick and choose
Sit and lose
All you different crews
Chicks and dudes
Who you think is really kickin' tunes?
Picture you gettin' down in a picture tube
Like you lit the fuse
You think it's fictional
Mystical? Maybe
Spiritual
Hearable
What appears in you is a clearer view cos you're too crazy
Lifeless
To know the definition for what life is
Priceless
For you because I put you on the hype ****
You like it?
Gunsmokin' righteous with one token
Psychic among those
Possess you with one go

I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine, in a bag
I'm useless,but not for long
The future is coming on
I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine, in a bag
I'm useless, but not for long
The future is coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on

The essence the basics
Without it you make it
Allow me to make this
Childlike in nature
Rhythm
You have it or you don't that's a fallacy
I'm in them
Every sprouting tree
Every child apiece
Every cloud you see
You see with your eyes
I see destruction and demise
Corruption in disguise
From this ****in' enterprise
Now I'm sucking to your lies
Through Russ, though not his muscles but the percussion he provides
with me as a guide
But y'all can see me now cos you don't see with your eye
You perceive with your mind
That's the inner
So I'm gonna stick around with Russ and be a mentor
Bust a few rhymes so mother ****ers
Remember where the thought is
I brought all this
So you can survive when law is lawless
Feelings, sensations that you thought were dead
No squealing, remember
(that it's all in your head)

I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine, in a bag
I'm useless, but not for long
The future is coming on
I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine, in a bag
I'm useless, but not for long
My future is coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
My future is coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on
It's coming on

Rest Of The Day Off

Totally wired and the game is up,
I’m under the table,
You carry my heart in the palm of your hand,
As the clouds roll in, the party was rained out,
Open up to find a man made home,
And by four o’clock when the sun came out,
We were beside ourselves,
Taking the rest of the day off,
Lying out the back,
Slung in a hammock,
Gathering reams of space and time,

Two eyes that surrender,
The call might come,
Fire my anger and spoil the whole thing,
It’s not much fun when the pressures on,
And your luck has gone, But you squeeze my hand,
We’re taking the rest of the day off,
We like to climb the rock,
Before we have lunch,
And we’ll turn our backs on the whole damn bunch

You find the answer walking the dog,
Down the south of Piha, it’s over and done,
Not a lot to say when the man calls up,
The line goes dead and you’re yesterday’s news,
I couldn’t care less now I’m here with you,
We’re the only ones left and we’re flat on our backs,
Taking the rest of the day off,
And you find it don’t add up to much,
When you’re wrapped in a blanket of stars,
With the one you love,
Like two shiny dogs,
With the one you love

Blood Type by Viktor Tsoi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victor_Tsoi) and Kino (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kino_(band))


It's a warm place here but there on the street
Where our footprints are waited for
Star dust on our boots sparkles and shines
There's a cosy armchair with a checkered blanket
The trigger hasn't been pulled in time
Sunny days... in dazzling dreams

My blood type is marked on my sleeve,
My ordinal number is marked on my sleeve,
Wish me good luck in the fight, wish me good luck
So I don't stay here in the grass
So I don't stay here in the grass
Wish me good luck in the fight, wish me good luck

I can pay, but I don't want a victory at any cost
I don't want to put my foot on someone's chest
I would rather stay here with you,
Just to stay here with you,
But the star high in the sky is calling me on my way...

My blood type is marked on my sleeve,
My ordinal number is marked on my sleeve,
Wish me good luck in the fight, wish me good luck
So I don't stay here in the grass
So I don't stay here in the grass
Wish me good luck in the fight, wish me good luck


I think the translation is not ideal, so, if you speak Russian, here is original Russian lyrics:



Теплое место, но улицы ждут
Отпечатков наших ног.
Звездная пыль - на сапогах.
Мягкое кресло, клетчатый плед,
Не нажатый вовремя курок.
Солнечный день... в ослепительных снах.


Группа крови - на рукаве,
Мой порядковый номер - на рукаве,
Пожелай мне удачи в бою, пожелай мне
Не остаться в этой траве,
Не остаться в этой траве.
Пожелай мне удачи, пожелай мне удачи!

Мне есть чем платить, но я не хочу
Победы любой ценой.
Я никому не хочу ставить ногу на грудь.
Я хотел бы остаться с тобой,
Просто остаться с тобой,
Но высокая в небе звезда зовет меня в путь.

Группа крови - на рукаве,
Мой порядковый номер - на рукаве,
Пожелай мне удачи в бою, пожелай мне
Не остаться в этой траве,
Не остаться в этой траве.
Пожелай мне удачи, пожелай мне удачи!

Dead as dead can be, my doctor tells me
But I just can’t believe him, never the optimistic one
I’m sure of your ability to become my perfect enemy
Wake up and face me, don’t play dead cause maybe
Someday I will walk away and say, You disappoint me,
Maybe you’re better off this way

Leaning over you here, cold and catatonic
I catch a brief reflection of what you could and might have been
It's your right and your ability
To become…my perfect enemy…

Wake up and face me, don’t play dead cause maybe
Someday I’ll walk away and say, You disappoint me,
Maybe you’re better off this way

Maybe you’re better off this way
Maybe you’re better off this way
Maybe you’re better off this way
You’re better of this…you’re better off this…
Maybe you’re better off!

Wake up and face me, don’t play dead cause maybe
Someday I’ll walk away and say, You ****ing disappoint me!
Maybe you’re better off this way

Go ahead and play dead
I know that you can hear this
Go ahead and play dead
Why can't you turn and face me?
Why can't you turn and face me?
Why can't you turn and face me?
Why can't you turn and face me?
You fu**ing disappoint me!

Do you ever wonder
What sky I'm lying under
Do you ever think of me
Does your heart remember
How we used to feel
When it used to think of me

All I need to know
When you're on your own
Do you miss what might have been

World don't stop turning
Stars don't stop falling down
In my world of make believe
Do you ever think of me

We got different stories
And all our never endings now
Even thought your heart is free
Still my heart wont let me be
Do you ever think of me

So we're on different shores
Do we just drift away
Do the memories fall
Like a driving rain

All I need to know
When you're on your own
Do you miss what might have been

World don't stop turning
Stars don't stop falling down
In my world of make believe
Do you ever think of me

We got different stories
And all our never endings now
Even thought your heart is free
Still my heart wont let me be
Do you ever think of me

Tell the truth. Tell me who's been fooling you?
Tell the truth. Who's been fooling who?

There you sit there, looking so cool
While the whole show is passing you by.
You better come to terms with your fellow men soon, cause...

The whole world is shaking now. Can't you feel it?
A new dawn is breaking now. Can't you see it?

Tell the truth. Tell me who's been fooling you
Tell the truth. Who's been fooling who?

It doesn't matter just who you are,
Or where you're going or been.
Open your eyes and look into your heart.

The whole world is shaking now. Can't you feel it?
A new dawn is breaking now. Can't you see it?
I said see it, yeah, can't you see it?
Can't you see it, yeah, can't you see it?
I can see it, yeah.

Tell the truth. Tell me who's been fooling you
Tell the truth. Who's been fooling who?

Hear what I say, 'cause every word is true.
You know I wouldn't tell you no lies.
Your time's coming, gonna be soon, boy.

When you were here before,
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel,
Your skin makes me cry

You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so ******' special

But I'm a creep,
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here

I don't care if it hurts,
I wanna have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul

Trust and you'll be trusted
Says the liar to the fool
Lust and so what if you're busted?
In love and war there ain't no rules

Do you believe in forever?
I don't even believe in tomorrow
The only things that last forever
Are memories and sorrow

Out of sight out of mind
The motto of betrayal
The prophets preach to forgive and forget
I'm sorry, but I am unable

You went to L'amour Saturday night
Red nails and lipstick
dressed two sizes two tight
His tongue down your throat
His hand up your skirt
Yeah I'm a man
But it still hurts

I'm foolish I know
I'm happy, so happy now
Just to see you, is too much for me

I'm foolish but so
Im happy, so happy now
My heart's true and forever will be

No secrets I'd keep
No others I'd see
All of my dreams forever would be
Only of you

No place I'd go
No others I'd kiss
All that I know is all that I'd miss
Only for you
Only for you

I'm foolish I know
I'm happy, so happy now
Just to want you is too much for me

I'm foolish but so
I'm happy, so happy now
Just to see you, I'd miss out on a drink.

All American Rejects - It Ends Tonight

Your subtleties
They strangle me
I can't explain myself at all.
And all the wants
And all the needs
All I don't want to need at all.

The walls start breathing
My mind's unweaving
Maybe it's best you leave me alone.
A weight is lifted
On this evening
I give the final blow.

When darkness turns to light,
It ends tonight
It ends tonight.

A falling star
Least I fall alone.
I can't explain what you can't explain.
You're finding things that you didn't know
I look at you with such disdain

The walls start breathing
My mind's unweaving
Maybe it's best you leave me alone.
A weight is lifted
On this evening
I give the final blow.

When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Just a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.

Now I'm on my own side
It's better than being on your side
It's my fault when you're blind
It's better that I see it through your eyes

All these thoughts locked inside
Now you're the first to know

When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Just a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight
It ends tonight,
It ends

When darkness turns to light
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.
Just a little insight won't make this right
It's too late to fight
It ends tonight,
It ends tonight.

Tonight
Insight
When darkness turns to light,
It ends tonight.

I don't like you, I love you
Seems like I'm always thinkin' of you
Though you treat me badly, I love you madly

You really got a hold on me
Really got a hold on me

Baby, baby, baby
I don't want you, I need you
Don't want to kiss you, but I need to
Though you do me wrong, my love is strong now

You really got a hold on me
Really got a hold on me

Baby, baby, baby
I love you and all I want you to do is just
Hold me, hold me, hold me
Tighter

I've wanna leave you, don't want to stay here
Don't want to spend another day here
Though I wanna split now, girl I can't quit now

You really got a hold on me
Really got a hold on me

Baby, babe
I love you and all I want you to do is just
Hold me, hold me, hold me

You really got a hold on me
Really got a hold on me

J'ai fait la liste de ce qu'on ne sera plus
Quand tu danses, quand tu danses
Mais que deviennent les amoureux perdus
Quand tu danses, y songes-tu?
Quand tu danses, y songes-tu?

Amis non, ni amants, étrangers non plus
Quand tu danses, quand tu danses
Mais quel après, après s'être appartenus
Quand tu danses, y songes-tu?
Quand tu danses, y songes-tu?

Je crois bien que j'aurai besoin de te voir
Quand tu danses, quand tu danses
Sans te parler, ni déranger, mais te voir
Quand tu danses, y songes-tu?
Quand tu danses, y songes-tu?

Et toutes les peines, toutes, contre une seule de nos minutes

Mais n'être plus rien après tant, c'est pas juste
Quand tu danses, y songes-tu?
Quand tu danses, y songes-tu?

Et j'ai fait la liste de ce qu'on ne sera plus

Mais que deviennent les amours éperdues?
Quand tu danses, y songes-tu?
Quand tu danses, y songes-tu?

Goldman, Quand tu danses...

for an approximate translation: (much better in the original lyrics, not that I am biaised of course)

I made the list of all that we won't be anymore
When you dance, when you dance
But what do lost lovers become
When you dance, do you think about it
When you dance, do you think about it

Not friends nor lovers, strangers neither
When you dance, when you dance
But what after, after belonging to one another
When you dance, do you think about it
When you dance, do you think about it

I think I'll need to see you,
When you dance, when you dance
without speaking or disturbing, but seeing you
When you dance, do you think about it
When you dance, do you think about it

And all the sorrow, all, for just one of our minutes

But being nothing after all this, that's not fair
When you dance, do you think about it
When you dance, do you think about it

And I made the list of all that we won't be anymore

But what do passionate love become?
When you dance, do you think about it
When you dance, do you think about it
