Wind of fate has pried us loose
Light of mercy hurts my eyes
Is it worth the things you lose
To board the train and watch the sky

I sing myself to sleep at night
I sing myself to sleep

Another song about the rain
Coming down it burns through me
Another song about the rain

Gotta knife straight from my heart
Another diamond went to you
Another place where we were smart
Before the flood and time was through

I sing myself to sleep at night
I sing myself to sleep

Another song about the rain
Coming down it burns through me
Another song about the rain

Sorry now I never made you see
Sorry now sounds so far away
Will our child cry for me
When he hears the dragon's flame

Highway flares make red the streets
My fingers spin the dial again
But every station on the news, yeah

Another song about the rain
Another song about the rain
Another song about the rain
Never rained so viciously

Red rain is coming down
Red rain
Red rain is pouring down
Pouring down all over me

I am standing up at the water’s edge in my dream
I cannot make a single sound as you scream
It can’t be that cold, the ground is still warm to touch
This place is so quiet, sensing that storm

Red rain is coming down
Red rain
Red rain is pouring down
Pouring down all over me

Well I’ve seen them buried in a sheltered place in this town
They tell you that this rain can sting, and look down
There is no blood around see no sign of pain
Hay ay ay no pain
Seeing no red at all, see no rain

Red rain is coming down
Red rain
Red rain is pouring down
Pouring down all over me

Red rain-
Putting the pressure on much harder now
To return again and again
Just let the red rain splash you
Let the rain fall on your skin
I come to you defences down
With the trust of a child

Red rain is coming down
Red rain
Red rain is pouring down
Pouring down all over me
And I can’t watch any more
No more denial
It’s so hard to lay down in all of this
Red rain is coming down
Red rain is pouring down
Red rain is coming down all over me
I see it
Red rain is coming down
Red rain is pouring down
Red rain is coming down all over me
I’m bathing in it
Red rain coming down
Red rain is coming down
Red rain is coming down all over me
I’m begging you
Red rain coming down
Red rain coming down
Red rain coming down
Red rain coming down
Over me in the red red sea
Over me
Over me
Red rain

Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, where have you been, my darling young one?
I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains,
I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways,
I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests,
I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans,
I've been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard,
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, and it's a hard,
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Oh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what did you see, my darling young one?
I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it,
I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin',
I saw a room full of men with their hammers a-bleedin',
I saw a white ladder all covered with water,
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken,
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children,
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

And what did you hear, my blue-eyed son?
And what did you hear, my darling young one?
I heard the sound of a thunder, it roared out a warnin',
Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world,
Heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a-blazin',
Heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin',
Heard one person starve, I heard many people laughin',
Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter,
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley,
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Oh, who did you meet, my blue-eyed son?
Who did you meet, my darling young one?
I met a young child beside a dead pony,
I met a white man who walked a black dog,
I met a young woman whose body was burning,
I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow,
I met one man who was wounded in love,
I met another man who was wounded with hatred,
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Oh, what'll you do now, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what'll you do now, my darling young one?
I'm a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-fallin',
I'll walk to the depths of the deepest black forest,
Where the people are many and their hands are all empty,
Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters,
Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison,
Where the executioner's face is always well hidden,
Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten,
Where black is the color, where none is the number,
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it,
And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it,
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',
But I'll know my song well before I start singin',
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

No one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you

No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through

But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free

When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool

If I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
If I shiver, please give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes

Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealin'
Tired of livin' like a blind man
I'm sick inside without a sense of feelin
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handing you a heart worth breakin'
I've been wrong, I've been down
To the bottom of every bottle
Despite words in my head
Scream "Are we having fun yet?"
Yet?, Yet?, Yet?, no no

It's not like you didn't know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
It must have been so bad
Cause living with me must have damn near killed you

This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handing you a heart worth breakin'
I've been wrong, I've been down
To the bottom of every bottle
Despite words in my head
Scream "Are we having fun yet?"
Yet?, Yet?, Yet?, no no

Never made is as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me

This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handing you a heart worth breakin'
I've been wrong, I've been down
To the bottom of every bottle
Despite words in my head
Scream "Are we having fun yet?"
Yet?, Yet?, Yet?, no no

lie still, little bottle
and shake my shaky hand
black coffee's not enough for me
i need a better friend

one pill at the bottom
is singin my favorite song
i know i must investigate
i hope that i can sing along

there's no time for metaphors
cried the little pill to me
he said life is a placebo
masquerading as a simile
i knew that pill was lying
too gregarious, too nice
but as he walked i had to sing this twice

lie still, little bottle
don't twist it ain't twisting time
every move you make you just disintegrate
my ever troubled mind

lie still, little bottle
and shake my shaky hand
black coffee's not enough for me
i need a better friend

one pill at the bottom
is singin my favorite song
i know i must investigate
i hope that i can sing along

lie still, little bottle
lie still
lie still, little bottle
lie still
lie still
lie still

I take a couple uppers
I down a couple downers
But nothing compares
To these blue and yellow purple pills
I been to mushroom mountain
Once or twice but who's countin'
But nothing compares
To these blue and yellow purple pills


(only posting the first chorus, think posting the rest of the track might get me in trouble. But feel free to use the whole lot to find lyrics)

My story is much to sad to be told
But practically everything leaves me totally cold
The only exception I know is the case
When I'm out on a quiet spree, fighting vainly the old ennui
Then I suddenly turn and see
Your fabulous face

I get no kick from champagne
Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all
So tell me why should it be true
That I get a kick out of you

Some like the perfume from Spain
I'm sure that if I took even one sniff
It would bore me terrifically too
But I get a kick out of you

[font color="#800080"] Scrolling thru I saw believe and the song that came to mind was the one that was being quoted !...MC&tIF was a great album!

"Shakedown 1979
Cool kids never have the time
On a live wire right up off the street
You and I should meet
Junebug skipping like a stone
With the headlights pointed at the dawn
We were sure we'd never see an end to it all

And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues
And we don't know
Just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below"

Disarm you with a smile
And cut you like you want me to
Cut that little child
Inside of me and such a part of you
Ooh, the years burn

I used to be a little boy
So old in my shoes
And what I choose is my choice
What’s a boy supposed to do?
The killer in me is the killer in you
My love
I send this smile over to you

Disarm you with a smile
And leave you like they left me here
To wither in denial
The bitterness of one who’s left alone
Ooh, the years burn
Ooh, the years burn, burn, burn

I used to be a little boy
So old in my shoes
And what I choose is my voice
What’s a boy supposed to do?
The killer in me is the killer in you
My love
I send this smile over to you

The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you
The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you
The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you

And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all

It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss
It was only a kiss...

I’m asleep but she’s talking to me
She’s walking ’round wearing all of my clothes
As she runs out of things to say
And grabs my coat to walk away

How bout another first kiss, she said
How bout another first kiss, I said
I want another first kiss like this
How bout another first kiss

Other people were too sentimental
Always worrying about their hair
Got tired of wasting all my time
Now I’m not worrying at all

How bout another first kiss, she said
How bout another first kiss, I said
I want another first kiss like this
How bout another first kiss

You could tell me we belong together
And I could tell you belong with me
But we’ve run out of things to say
And we’ll be happy anyway

So....

How bout another first kiss she said
How bout another first kiss, I said
I want another first kiss like this
How bout another first kiss

How bout another first kiss she said
How bout another first kiss, I said
I want another first kiss like this
How bout another first kiss

Oh, where oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world.

We were out on a date in my daddy's car
We hadn't driven very far
There in the road, up straight ahead
A car was stalled, the engine was dead
I couldn't stop, so I swerved to the right
I'll never forget the sound that night
The screamin' tires, the bustin' glass
The painful scream that I heard last.

Oh, where oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world.

When I woke up, the rain was pourin' down
There were people standing all around
Something warm rollin' through my eyes
But somehow I found my baby that night
I lifted her head, she looked at me and said
"Hold me darling just a little while."
I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss
I found the love that I knew I would miss
But now she's gone, even though I hold her tight
I lost my love, my life that night.

Oh, where oh where can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world.
Oooh~ ooooh~

Theologians
They don't know nothing
About my soul
About my soul

I'm an ocean
An abyss in motion
Slow motion
Slow motion

Inlitterati lumen fidei
God is with us everyday
That illiterate light
Is with us every night

Theologians
That don't know nothing
About my soul
Oh they don't know

They thin my heart with little things
And my life with change
Oh in so many ways
I find more missing every day

Theologians

I'm going away
Where you will look for me
Where I'm going you cannot come

No one's ever gonna take my life from me
I lay it down
A ghost is born
A ghost is born
A ghost is born

I'm an ocean
I'm all emotion
I'm a cherry ghost
Cherry ghost

Hey I'm a cherry ghost
A cherry ghost

I feel I never told you
the story of the ghost
that I once knew and talked to
of whom I'd never boast

for this was my big secret
how I'd get ahead
and never have to worry
I'd call him instead

his answer came in actions
he never spoke a word
or maybe I laid down the phone
before he could be heard

I somehow feel forsaken
like he had closed the door
I guess I just stopped needing him
as much as once before

but maybe he's still with me
the latch was left unhooked
he's waiting in the wind and rain
I simply haven't looked

There's a little child
Running round this house
And he never leaves
He will never leave
And the fog comes up from the sewers
And glows in the dark

Baby alligators in the sewers grow up fast
Grow up fast
Anything you want it can be done
How did you go bad?
Did you go bad?
Did you go bad?
Somethings will never wash away
Did you go bad?
Did you go bad?

and all the toilets are overflowing
there's shopping malls coming out of the walls
as we walk out among the manure

the warning lights are flashing down at quality control
somebody threw a spanner threw it in a hole
there's rumors in the loading bay
and anger in the town
somebody blew the whistle and the walls came down
there's a meeting in the boardroom they're trying to trace the smell
there's a leaking in the washroom there's a sneak in personnel
somewhere in the corridors someone was heard to sneeze
goodness me could this be industrial disease?

the caretaker was crucified for sleeping at his post
they're refusing to be pacified it's him they blame the most
watchdogs got rabies the foreman's got fleas
everyone can see it's an industrial disease
there's panic on the switchboard tongues are tied in knots
some come out in sympathies some come out in spots
some blame the management some the employees
everybody knows it's the industrial disease

now the workforce is disgusted downs tools and walks
innocence is injured experience just talks
everyone seeks damages everyone agrees
that these are classic symptoms of a monetary squeeze
on ITV and BBC they talk about the curse
philosophy is useless theology is worse
history boils over there's an economics freeze
sociologists invent words that mean industrial disease

doctor parkinson declared "i'm not surprised to see you here
you've got smoker's cough from smoking brewer's droop from drinking beer
i don't know how you came to get the betty davis knees
worst of all young man you've got industrial disease"
he wrote me a prescription he said "you are depressed
but i'm glad you came to see me to get this off your chest
come back and see me later. next patient please
send in another victim of industrial disease"

and i go down to speaker's corner i was thunderstruck
they got free speech tourists police in trucks
two men say they're jesus one of them must be wrong
there's a protest singer he's singing a protest song
he says "they wanna have a war to keep their factories
they wanna have a war to keep us on our knees
they wanna have a war to stop us buying japanese
they wanna have a war to stop industrial disease
they're pointing out the enemy to keep you deaf and blind
they wanna sap your energy incarcerate your mind
give you rule britannia gassy beer page three
two weeks in espana and sunday strip tease"
meanwhile the first jesus says "i'd cure it soon
abolish monday mornings and friday afternoons"
the other one's out on hunger strike he's dying by degrees
how come jesus gets industrial disease?

Don't fret precious I'm here, step away from the window
Go back to sleep

Lay your head down child
I won't let the boogeyman come
Counting bodies like sheep
To the rhythm of the war drums
Pay no mind to the rabble
Pay no mind to the rabble
Head down, go to sleep
To the rhythm of the war drums

Pay no mind what other voices say
They don't care about you, like I do, like I do
Safe from pain, and truth and choice and other poison devils,
See, they don't give a **** about you, like I do.

Just stay with me, safe and ignorant,
Go back to sleep
Go back to sleep

Lay your head down child
I won't let the boogeyman come
Counting bodies like sheep
To the rhythm of the war drums
Pay no mind to the rabble
Pay no mind to the rabble
Head down, go to sleep
To the rhythm of the war drums

I'll be the one to protect you from
Your enemies and all your demons
I'll be the one to protect you from
A will to survive and a voice of reason
I'll be the one to protect you from
Your enemies and your choices son
They're one and the same
I must isolate you
Isolate and save you from yourself

Swayin' to the rhythm of the new world order and
Counting bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drums
The boogeyman are coming
The boogeyman are coming
Keep your head down, go to sleep
To the rhythm of the war drums

Stay with me
Safe and ignorant
Just stay with me
Hold you and protect you from the other ones
The evil ones
Don't love you son,
Go back to sleep

good morning worm your honor
the crown will plainly show the prisoner who now stands before you
was caught red handed showing feelings
showing feelings of an almost human nature
this will not do

call the schoolmaster!
i always said he'd come to no good in the end your honor
if they'd let me have my way i could have flayed him into shape
but my hands were tied
the bleeding hearts and artists let him get away with murder
let me hammer him today

crazy
toys in the attic i am crazy
truly gone fishing
they must have taken my marbles away
crazy
toys in the attic he is crazy

you little s*** you're in it now i hope they throw away the key
you could have talked to me more often than you did but NO!
you had to have your own way
have you broken any homes up lately?
just five minutes worm your honor
him and me alone

BABE!!!
come to mother baby let me hold you in my arms
m'lud i never wanted him to get in any trouble
why'd he ever have to leave me worm your honor let me take him home

crazy
over the rainbow i am crazy
bars in the window
there must have been a door there in the wall
when i came in
crazy
over the rainbow he is crazy

the evidence before the court is incontrovertible
there's no need for the jury to retire
in all my years of judging i have never heard before
of someone more deserving the full penalty of the law
the way you made them suffer
your exquisite wife and mother
fills me with the urge to defecate
since my friend you have revealed your deepest fear
i sentence you to be exposed before your peers
TEAR DOWN THE WALL!!!!

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby

Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true

Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?

If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?

One mornin' when I was ridin'
In my old pickup truck
A beautiful bluebird
came flyin' down
My eyes caught the color
As it lead me down the road
Dippin' and bobbin' in the sun
I've never seen that blue before
'cept in one place
And she's not
here with me right now
So I followed all the way
To the top of the hill
That's where she
kept on climbin' Lord
Someday I will

Beautiful bluebird
See how she flies
Looks like she's
always goin' home
If heaven had a window
Where the sun
came shinin' through
Like a beautiful bluebird
I'd come flyin' back to you

Well it kind of struck me funny
Sort of made me smile
After all these years
on this old road
How God could show me somethin'
Never say a word
There's so much
that I don't know
I've never seen that blue before
Except in one place
And she's not
here with me right now
I followed all the way
to the top of the hill
That's where she
kept on climbin' Lord
And someday I will

Beautiful bluebird
See how she flies
Looks like she's
always goin' home
If heaven had a window
Where the sun
came shinin' through
Like a beautiful bluebird
I'd come flyin' back to you

Maybe life is like a ride on a freeway
Dodging bullets while you're trying to find your way
Everyone's around but no one does a damn thing
It brings me down, but I won't let them

If I seem bleak, well you'd be correct
And if I don't speak, it's cause I get disconnected
But I won't be burned by the reflection
Of the fire in your eyes

As you're staring at the sun
As you're staring at the sun
As you're staring at the sun

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
And I say it's all right

Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right

Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...

Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been clear
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
And I say it's all right
It's all right

Well, meet me by the river that goes nowhere.
Let me lay my sorry trip on you.
Won't you meet me by the river, little darling'?
I might just let you see my bad tattoo.

Well i was gonna bring you flowers, but i didn't.
It's the thought that counts and i think i'm a bit too broke.
But there's some change in my ashtray--maybe just enough to pay.
For a half pint of somethin', probably make us choke.

Chorus:
Well you know i'd rather not go and meet your family.
They'd probably send me back where i belong.
Don't want to hear about mr. right.
'cause he's out of town tonight.
Baby come and spend some time with mr. wrong.

I drive a one-eyed malibu without a muffler.
And a tape deck that works if you kick it hard enough.
And baby if you like to read, i've got some great  ography.
And a ten pound flashlight rolling in the trunk.

Chorus

Now, do you have a girlfriend and does she look as good as you?
Would she like to meet my brother?
He'll be out of jail in a month or two.

Chorus

Where i come from they call me mr. wrong.

Mr. Clean tell me
is that really you
I wonder what you've done
to become so big and dumb
but I know you can change your lifestyle once again.
It's cool to be clean if you know what I mean
when I gave you my favourite Chiquita shirt
I gave it to a guy who is cruel to everyone he
meets and who shows the world he's incomplete
Mr. Clean tell me is that really you I wonder
what you've done to become so big and dumb
Last time we met you beat me up
that was no surprise though I miss the days
when you were nice
It's hard to believe that you don't owe me ****
I'm well aware of what is yours and where to
draw the lines at least I have the right to write
anything I think is right
Looking back at the days when we were friends
together as one we followed all the trends but
now a friend is less worth than a ******trend.

Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.

Though I know that evenin's empire has returned into sand,
Vanished from my hand,
Left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping.
My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet,
I have no one to meet
And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming.

Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.

Take me on a trip upon your magic swirlin' ship,
My senses have been stripped, my hands can't feel to grip,
My toes too numb to step, wait only for my boot heels
To be wanderin'.
I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade
Into my own parade, cast your dancing spell my way,
I promise to go under it.

Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.

Though you might hear laughin', spinnin', swingin' madly across the sun,
It's not aimed at anyone, it's just escapin' on the run
And but for the sky there are no fences facin'.
And if you hear vague traces of skippin' reels of rhyme
To your tambourine in time, it's just a ragged clown behind,
I wouldn't pay it any mind, it's just a shadow you're
Seein' that he's chasing.

Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.

Then take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind,
Down the foggy ruins of time, far past the frozen leaves,
The haunted, frightened trees, out to the windy beach,
Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow.
Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free,
Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands,
With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves,
Let me forget about today until tomorrow.

Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.

i never went to the tropical island
though everybody said they saw me there
and it wasn't me you punched a hole in
at the west german protest march
simultaneous events don't happen
we are isolated temporally
and a part is never called a whole thing
though it bothers it to know it's so

every man is made of two opinions
every woman has a second half
and it's samba time for tambo and weep day for urine man
yes it's samba time for tambo and weep day for urine man

i didn't write the words you hear me singing
i didn't sing the line before this one
you were not the one i was addressing
that person took a train to africa
where he met the consulate from belgium
who is now a hermit in a cave
who is pitching for the oakland raiders
striking out the batter she became

every man is made of two opinions
every woman has a second half
and it's samba time for tambo and weep day for urine man
yes it's samba time for tambo and weep day for urine man
samba time for tambo and weep day for urine man

Oh, the streets of Rome are filled with rubble,
Ancient footprints are everywhere.
You can almost think that you're seein' double
On a cold, dark night on the Spanish Stairs.
Got to hurry on back to my hotel room,
Where I've got me a date with Botticelli's niece.
She promised that she'd be right there with me
When I paint my masterpiece.

Oh, the hours I've spent inside the Coliseum,
Dodging lions and wastin' time.
Oh, those mighty kings of the jungle, I could hardly stand to see 'em,
Yes, it sure has been a long, hard climb.
Train wheels runnin' through the back of my memory,
When I ran on the hilltop following a pack of wild geese.
Someday, everything is gonna be smooth like a rhapsody
When I paint my masterpiece.

Sailin' 'round the world in a dirty gondola.
Oh, to be back in the land of Coca-Cola!

I left Rome and landed in Brussels,
On a plane ride so bumpy that I almost cried.
Clergymen in uniform and young girls pullin' muscles,
Everyone was there to greet me when I stepped inside.
Newspapermen eating candy
Had to be held down by big police.
Someday, everything is gonna be diff'rent
When I paint my masterpiece.

johnny's in the basement mixin up the medicine
i'm on the pavement thinking bout the government
a man in a trenchcoat badge out laid off
said he's got a bad cough wants to get it paid off

look out kids there's something you did
god knows when but you're doing it again
you better duck down the alleyway looking for a new friend
the man in the coonskin cap near the big pen
wants eleven dollar bills but you only got ten

maggie comes fleet foot face full of black soot
talking bout the heat put plants in the bed but
phone's tapped anyway maggie says the men they say
must bust in early may orders from the DA

look out kid don't matter what you did
better walk on your tip toes don't try no-doz
better stay away from those that carry round a fire hose
keep a clean nose watch the plain clothes
don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows

oh get sick get well hang around an ink well
ring bell hard to tell if anything's gonna sell
try hard get barred get back write braille
get jailed jump bail join the army if you fail

look out kids you're gonna get hit
by losers cheaters six time users hanging round the theaters
girl by the whirlpool looking for a new fool
don't follow leaders and watch the parking meters

ah get born keep warm short pants romance learn to dance
get blessed get dressed try to be a success
please her please him buy gifts don't steal don't lift
twenty years of school and then they put you on the day shift

look out kids there's something they hid
better jump down a manhole light yourself a candle
don't wear sandals and try to avoid the scandals
don't wanna be a bum you better chew gum
the pump don't work cause the vandals took the handles

Well it's a close one, a real close one
And no-one gets hurt, but she's got twice the fun
But now they kiss in the rain
And did someone call out someone's name
From a white cadillac on a wide wind
To her white dress across the great divide
Into the warm moonlight
And she's been reading Bukowski for days
And she leans over, spits her name in my face
And says "Well now you know how it feels"
Well now you know how it feels

And I was looking for you
Looking for you
Looking for you in the city last night

The boys in the band steal a kiss in the mystery of the night
11:59 to zero, live a blonde hair in jeans, holds her tight
Turns on the heat and starts to fight and sayin' "that's my man"
Well the myth of love must have been there
The spirit of possession was there

And the boys over at the bar
Yeah they're mixing up their medicine
The girls were on their mobile trying to get reception
Johnny's shadow's getting long but he keeps on singing
His shadow getting long but he keeps on singing:

And I was looking for you
Looking for you
Looking for you in the city last night

And people so strange
People so strange
People just keep talking in the city last night

Take off your shades and scroll down to number nine
You're living on the guest list, up against the big rack
Head back, hand highs, it's getting loud in here
Think you're going to have to shout
And she's tearing off her clothes
He's stirring all his drinks, oh yeah
Streets divide them
It's an empire of signs
Honey say she can read
And it looks like trouble
And it tastes like chocolate if you want it
It looks like trouble
And it tastes like chocolate if you want it

Still I was looking for you
Looking for you
Looking for you in the city last night

And people so strange
People so strange
People just keep talking in the city last night

And I was looking for you
And I was looking for you
And I was looking for you in the city last night

And I was looking for you
Yeah I was looking for you
Yeah I was looking for you in the city last night

It's alright!
It's alright!
If you say my name
It's alright!

"In The City" - Razorlight


I'll do graffiti,
If you sing to me in French.

I do it for the seeds y'all
in they formative years when they need y'all
we gotta believe, in what we conceive y'all
it's deep y'all
I give them the truth, so they approach the situation with ammunition
I keep nothing away, they hear everything, cause they know how to listen
Teach them the game so they know they position
so they can grow and make decisions
that change the world and break old traditions
They put kids in jail for a life they ain't even get to start
that's murder too, and it's breaking my heart
it's breaking our nation apart
We gave the youth all the anger
it's just we ain't taught them how to express it and so it's dangerous
You can't talk to them unless your language is relating to what they going through
so busy ignoring them you can't see what they showing you
And you wonder why we called baby-daddy's and baby-momma's
when we grow up we can't act like adult mothers and fathers, yo
I'm so blessed to have a boy and a girl, everyday they bring joy to my world

You, who are on the road,
Must have a code that you can live by.
And so, become yourself,
Because the past is just a good bye.
Teach your children well,
Their father's hell did slowly go by.
And feed them on your dreams,
The one they picks, the one you'll know by.

Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.

And you, of tender years,
Can't know the fears that your elders grew by.
And so please help them with your youth,
They seek the truth before they can die.
Teach your parents well,
Their children's hell will slowly go by.
And feed them on your dreams,
The one they picks, the one you'll know by.

Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.......

The middle of the road is trying to find me
I’m standing in the middle of life with my plans behind me
Well I got a smile for everyone I meet
As long as you don’t try dragging my bay
Or dropping the bomb on my street

Now come on baby
Get in the road
Oh come on now
In the middle of the road, yeah

In the middle of the road you see the darndest things
Like fat guys driving ’round in jeeps through the city
Wearing big diamond rings and silk suits
Past corrugated tin shacks full up with kids
Oh man I don’t mean a hampstead nursery
When you own a big chunk of the bloody third world
The babies just come with the scenery

Oh come on baby
Get in the road
Oh come on now
In the middle of the road, yeah

One...two...three...four...

The middle of the road is no private cul-de-sac
I can’t get from the cab to the curb
Without some little jerk on my back
Don’t harass me, can’t you tell
I’m going home, I’m tired as hell
I’m not the cat I used to be
I got a kid, I’m thirty-three

Baby, get in the road
Come on now
In the middle of the road
Yeah

I haven't gotten in on this action for quite a while, but this song kinda reminds me of the song above.

Al said goodbye to his mom and dad
for the first time in his life.
Tonight, he left the house and
walked to the waiting car outside.
Yea, somehow he thought they'd never understand.
That nothing lasts, and he just knows that time,
is just spinning by, and life, is passing him by so fast.

And sometimes I think,
I'm the only one who feels
like going nowhere's
like giving up.
Sometimes I think,
I'm the only one who feels like going.

Al said to me a few days ago that he just thought
for the first time in his life.
He feels that the last few years
were only a waste of time (only a waste of time)
Yes, it was always a compromise,
of what he always felt inside.
His declaration,
under the orange street light.

And sometimes I think,
I'm the only one who feels
like going nowhere's
like giving up.
Sometimes I think,
I'm the only one who feels like going.
Yeah-ah.

He was the one,
who always did the right things.
He was the one who would always
listen to everything they say.
But today, he's never going back. (Woah-oh-oh)

And nobody said,
that there would be days like these,
there'd be days like these,
there'd be days....

And sometimes I think,
I'm the only one who feels
like going nowhere's
like giving up.
Sometimes I think,
I'm the only one who feels
like going nowhere's
like giving up.

meh mentioning of leaving parents above kinda reminded me of this song..

Dear Mom and Dad,
I've been making plans
To leave this house and yes I'm sure
So lock the door, and turn the front porch lights out

After all the endless fights
The who's been wrong and who's been right
We just never saw eye to eye

So there's no need to apologize
Don't wait up, I'll be fine
If you could see inside my head
Maybe you could understand
That I'm better off
I'm better off gone
I'm better off gone

Dear Mom and Dad,
I've been making plans
To leave your house and yes I'm sure
That nothing's wrong, so just be strong on my way out

After all the endless nights
The who's been wrong and who's been right
We just never saw eye to eye

So there's no need to apologize
Don't wait up, I'll be fine
If you could see inside my head
Maybe you could understand
That I'm better off gone
I'm better off gone 'cause we don't see eye to eye

what the hell is wrong with me
i can't do nothing right
i sleep away the whole day long
and lie awake all night

i'm fighting things i've never seen
and i can't seem to win
who'll be looking after me
when i start giving in

it's always hard to trust yourself
when everything goes wrong
it's hard to be with someone else
when you're feeling all alone

it's hard to find your sanity
when you can't find a friend
who'll be looking after me
when i start giving in

when i say i can't take no more
and throw away my dreams
quit believing in myself
who'll believe in me?

i'm torn between my love for you
and the life i dream about
i don't know what we'll do
if we can't work it out

i can't imagine how it'd be
to change the way it's been
who'll be looking after me
when i start giving in

In a church,by the face,
He talks about the people going under.

Only child know...

A man decides after seventy years,
That what he goes there for, is to unlock the door.
While those around him criticize and sleep...
And through a fractal on a breaking wall,
I see you my friend, and touch your face again.
Miracles will happen as we trip.

But we're never gonna survive, unless...
We get a little crazy
No we're never gonna survive, unless...
We are a little...

Cray...cray...cray...

...Crazy yellow people walking through my head.
One of them's got a gun, to shoot the other one.
And yet together they were friends at school
Ohh, get it, get it, get it, get it no no!

If all were there when we first took the pill,
Then maybe, then maybe, then maybe, then maybe...
Miracles will happen as we speak.

But we're never gonna survive unless...
We get a little crazy.
No we're never gonna survive unless...
We are a little...
Crazy...
No no, never survive, unless we get a little... bit...

Oh, a little bit...
Oh, a little bit...

Oh...
Oh...

Amanda decides to go along after seventeen years...

Oh darlin...
In a sky full of people, only some want to fly,
Isn't that crazy?
In a world full of people, only some want to fly,
Isn't that crazy?
Crazy...
In a heaven of people there's only some want to fly,
Ain't that crazy?
Oh babe... Oh darlin...
In a world full of people there's only some want to fly,
Isn't that crazy?
Isn't that crazy... Isn't that crazy... Isn't that crazy...

Ohh...
But we're never gonna survive unless, we get a little crazy.. crazy..
No we're never gonna to survive unless we are a little... crazy..
But we're never gonna survive unless, we get a little crazy.. crazy..
No we're never gonna to survive unless, we are a little.. crazy..
No no, never survive unless, we get a little bit...

And then you see things
The size
Of which you've never known before

They'll break it

Someday...

Only child know....

Them things
The size
Of which you've never known before

Someday...
Someway...
Someday...
Someway...
Someday...
Someway...
Someday...

Crazy, I'm crazy for feeling so lonely
I'm crazy, crazy for feeling so blue
I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted
And then someday you'd leave me for somebody new
Worry, why do I let myself worry?
Wond'ring what in the world did I do?
Crazy for thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for trying and crazy for crying
And I'm crazy for loving you
Crazy for thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for trying and crazy for crying
And I'm crazy for loving you.

Freezing monday morning
She is waiting for her train to come
I brush past her, smell her perfume
Watch her hair move as she turns to go
She doesn’t know I exist
I’m gonna keep it like this
I’m not gonna take any risks this time

She’s not like the others
With their papers and their headphones on
She reads novels by french authors with loose morals
She can do no wrong
I wouldn’t say I’m obsessed
I don’t wanna see her undressed
We can be prince and princess in my dream
And we’re dancing
Through the evening
’til the morning

Jill Phillips - Every Day

A night full of stars and the moon on water
Reflects perfectly clear
We walk to the car, turn on "secret garden"
And roll down the windows to hear
Down to the shore where the tide is rising
Feel it run over our feet
We start to move and I'm realizing
Now I am living a dream

I can't belive can't belive that we're here
But I won't complain won't complain
Cause I could go on for a million more years
If we danced like this every day.

I open my eyes as the song is fading
I wish that it had no end
But the pulse of the tide keeps our bodies swaying
Dancing to music within

remember that tank-top you bought me?
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 Instamatik camera
And pulled my sleeves around my heart

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
You tore away my shirt
You rubbed an ice cube on my chest
Snapped me till it hurt

Because you're gorgeous
I'd do anything for you
Because you're gorgeous
I know you'll get me through

You said I wasn't cheap
You paid me twenty pounds
You promised to put me in a magazine
On every table in every lounge

Because you're gorgeous
I'd do anything for you
Because you're gorgeous
I know you'll get me through

I think the language control is set too high!

Does she walk? Does she talk?
Does she come complete?
My homeroom homeroom angel
Always pulled me from my seat

She was pure like snowflakes
No one could ever stain
The memory of my angel
Could never cause me pain

Years go by I'm lookin' through a girly magazine
And there's my homeroom angel on the pages in-between

My blood runs cold
My memory has just been sold
My angel is the centerfold
Angel is the centerfold

Slipped me notes under the desk
While I was thinkin' about her dress
I was shy I turned away
Before she caught my eye

I was shakin' in my shoes
Whenever she flashed those baby-blues
Something had a hold on me
When angel passed close by

Those soft and fuzzy sweaters
Too magical to touch
Too see her in that negligee
Is really just too much

My blood runs cold
My memory has just been sold
My angel is the centerfold
Angel is the centerfold

It's okay I understand
This ain't no never-never land
I hope that when this issue's gone
I'll see you when your clothes are on

Take you car, Yes we will
We'll take your car and drive it
We'll take it to a motel room
And take 'em off in private

A part of me has just been ripped
The pages from my mind are stripped
Oh no, I can't deny it
Oh yea, I guess I gotta buy it!

My blood runs cold
My memory has just been sold
My angel is the centerfold
Angel is the centerfold

Linking artist and subject



I could see it was a rough-cut Tuesday
Slow-motion weekdays stare me down
Her lipstick reflex got me wound
There were no defects to be found
Snapshot image froze without a sound

Thursday morning was a hot flash-factor
Her face still focused in my mind
Test-strip proof-sheet love is hard to find
Friday night we'll dance the spotlight grind
Stop-time heart for me if she's not mine

CHORUS:

Freeze-frame! (Freeze-frame!) (REPEAT TWICE)
Freeze-frame! Now Freeze!
Now I'm lookin' at a flashback Sunday
Zoom lens feelings just won't disappear
Close-up darkroom sweet-talk in my ear
Her hot-spot love for me is strong
This freeze-frame moment can't be wrong
CHORUS (repeat once)
Freeze frame...

Without you my life has become a hangover without end.
A movie made for TV: bad dialogue,
bad acting, no interest.
Too long with no story & no sex.
Is it a kind of weakness
to miss someone so much?
To wish the day would go away?
Like you did yesterday.
Just like you did yesterday.

& I can't think of a way to get through this pain:
To be happy again to make it all alright & I know it must be bad
'cos sitting here right now,
all I know is I can't even think,
I can't even think of anything clever to
say, to say
So I say why pretend any longer?
'Cos I need you here with me.
It's obvious that I miss you so much
so please say you're gonna stay.
So please say you're gonna stay.
So please say you're gonna stay.

The night is getting darker
now and there's nothing on TV
but I'll sit tight 'til morning light.
Yeah, I'll wait until the day.
Until the day that you say you're gonna stay.

Baby, it's all right
Maybe you can stay here tonight
Baby, it's all right
Maybe you can stay here tonight

Out on the street
Loud music my guitar
Drove up a women in one of those ol' fancy cars
She said "hey boy, why don't you get on in
for tonight I'll be your lover and your friend"

And she said
Baby, it's all right
Maybe you can stay here tonight
Baby, it's all right
Maybe you can stay here tonight

It was champagne
candlelight and wine
The girl looked so good she gave eyesight to the blind
she said "come here boy, I'm gonna take you higher
For tonight the stars shine much brighter"

And she said
Baby, it's all right
Maybe you can stay here tonight
(Baby), She said baby (it's all right)
You know it's all right
(Maybe) She said baby
(Stay here tonight)


Can I kiss ya
Can I hold ya
Put my arms around ya
Thank God I found ya

Can I kiss ya
Can I hold ya baby
Put my arms around ya
Thank God I found ya

You saw me crying in the chapel.
The tears I shed were tears of joy
I know the meaning of contentment
Now I am happy with the lord

Just a plain and simple chapel
Where humble people go to pray
I pray the lord that I’ll grow stronger
As I live from day to day

I’ve searched and I’ve searched
But I couldn’t find
No way on earth
To gain peace of mind

Now I’m happy in the chapel
Where people are of one accord
We gather in the chapel
Just to sing and praise the lord

Ev’ry sinner looks for something
That will put his heart at ease
There is only one true answer
He must get down on his knees

Meet your neighbor in the chapel
Join with him in tears of joy
You’ll know the meaning of contentment
Then you’ll be happy with the lord

You’ll search and you’ll search
But you’ll never find
No way on earth
To gain peace of mind

Take your troubles to the chapel
Get down on your knees and pray
Your burdens will be lighter
And you’ll surely find the way

you take off from work a bit early
the boss doesn't care if you stay
the guard with the key has to check your ID
but he'd just as soon blow you away

the cops have stopped 10 miles of traffic
they're sorry for all the delay
no need for alarm as they're waving their arms
but they'd just as soon blow you away

two pretty blondes in a porsche
their bumper says "we love LA"
they look pretty fair but they're crazy out there
and they'd just as soon blow you away

you got in some trouble in high school
but you feel like a new man today
you keep to yourself because anyone else
would just as soon blow you away

you're standing in front of the teller
she's counting out all of your pay
there's twenties and ones and guards with their guns
and they'd just as soon blow you away

and one old ex-con at the station
fixes flats in the back of the bay
he winks and he jokes and he borrows a smoke
but he'd just as soon blow you away

you like the new girl at the hotel
she drops your room key in the tray
no words will pass through the bullet proof glass
and she'd just as soon blow you away

you climb up the stairs every evening
to your room right above the cafe
there ain't much mystique but you pay every week
cause they'd just as soon blow you away

you turn out the light that you read by
you pray that you're one of the few
when you're in with the lord there's just one reward
and they'd just as soon make it come true

the mattress is mildewed and lumpy
but you fall fast asleep where you lay
under the lump there's a twenty gauge pump
cause they'd just as soon blow you away

When your day is long and the night,
The night is yours alone,
When you're sure you've had enough
With this life,
Well hang on

Don't let yourself go,
'Couse everybody cries
And everybody hurts sometimes

Sometimes everything is wrong
Now it's time to sing along
When your days is night alone,
If you feel like letting go,
When you think you've had too much
Of this life,
Well hang on

Everybody hurts
Take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts
Don't throw your hand
Oh, no
Don't throw your hand
If you feel like you're alone,
No, no, no, you are 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

Well, everybody hurts,
Sometimes everybody cries
And everybody hurts sometimes
And everybody hurts sometimes
So, hold on, hold on, hold on...
(Everybody hurts... You are not alone)

Whatever happened to Saturday night
When you dressed up sharp and you felt alright?
It don't seem the same since cosmic light
Came into my life, I thought I was divine...

I used to go for a ride with a chick who'd go
And listen to the music on the radio
A saxophone was blowin' on a rock & roll show.
You climbed in the back seat, you really had a good time.

Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n' roll.

My head used to swim from the perfume I smelled
My hands kind of fumbled with her white plastic belt
I'd taste her baby pink lipstick and that's when I'd melt
She'd whisper in my ear tonight she really was mine

Get back in front, put some hair oil on
Buddy Holly was singing his very last song.
With your arms around your girl you'd try to sing along.
It felt pretty good, oh, you really had a good time.

Hot patootie, bless my soul, I really love that rock 'n' roll.

well i woke up sunday morning
with no way to hold my head that didn't hurt
and the beer i had for breakfast
wasn't bad so i had one more for dessert
then i fumbled in my closet
through my clothes and found my cleanest dirty shirt
then i washed my face and combed my hair
and stumbled down the stairs to mee the day

i'd smoked my mind the night before
with cigarettes and songs that i'd been pickin
but i lit my first and watched a small kid
playin with a can that he was kickin
then i walked across the street
and caught the sunday smell of someone's frying chicken
and it took me back to something
that i lost somewhere, somehow along the way

on a sunday morning sidewalk
i'm wishing lord that i was stoned
cause there's something in a sunday
that makes a body feel alone
and there's nothing short of dying
that's half as lonesome as the sound
of a sleeping city sidewalk
and sunday morning coming down

in the park i saw a daddy
with a laughing little girl that he was swingin
and i stopped beside a sunday school
listened to the songs they were singin
then i stumbled down the street
and somewhere a lonely bell was ringin
and it echoed through the canyon
like the disappearing songs of yesterday

on a sunday morning sidewalk
i'm wishing lord that i was stoned
cause there's something in a sunday
that makes a body feel alone
and there's nothing short of dying
that's half as lonesome as the sound
of a sleeping city sidewalk
and sunday morning coming down

I saw chicken and had to go with jimies chicken shack

Won't make the bed up straight
I always stay out late
I never take you out
That's what you're all about

I always smell like smoke
Everything's just a joke
I never look at you
When you come hear me sing

These are not all of the many simple things
You can find wrong with me
But would you tell me please...


What do I do, what do I do, what do I do
What do I do right?
What do I do, what do I do, what do I do
What do I do right?

I never talk to you
Be who you want me to
My music's way too loud
My friends are all so proud

Say I'm just wasting hope
I could not thread the rope
More than my pocket's broke
And you don't see a ring

These are not all of the infinitesimal things
You can find wrong with me
But would you tell me please...

What do I do, what do I do, what do I do
What do I do right?
What do I do, what do I do, what do I do
What do I do right?

JEALOUS GUY

I was dreaming of the past
and my heart was beating fast
I began to lose control
I began to lose control

I didnt mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
I didnt want 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 didnt mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
I didnt want to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy

(whistle)

I was trying to catch your eye
Thought the you was trying to hide
I was swallowing my pain
I was swallowing my pain

I didnt mean to hurt you
I'm sorry that I made you cry
I didnt want to hurt you
I'm just a jealous guy
watchout im justa jealous guy
lookout babe im justa jealous guy

Someone's got it in for me, they're planting stories in the press
Whoever it is I wish they'd cut it out but when they will I can only guess.
They say I shot a man named Gray and took his wife to Italy,
She inherited a million bucks and when she died it came to me.
I can't help it if I'm lucky.

People see me all the time and they just can't remember how to act
Their minds are filled with big ideas, images and distorted facts.
Even you, yesterday you had to ask me where it was at,
I couldn't believe after all these years, you didn't know me better than that
Sweet lady.

Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your mouth,
Blowing down the backroads headin' south.
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth,
You're an idiot, babe.
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe.

I ran into the fortune-teller, who said beware of lightning that might strike
I haven't known peace and quiet for so long I can't remember what it's like.
There's a lone soldier on the cross, smoke pourin' out of a boxcar door,
You didn't know it, you didn't think it could be done, in the final end he won the wars
After losin' every battle.

I woke up on the roadside, daydreamin' 'bout the way things sometimes are
Visions of your chestnut mare shoot through my head and are makin' me see stars.
You hurt the ones that I love best and cover up the truth with lies.
One day you'll be in the ditch, flies buzzin' around your eyes,
Blood on your saddle.

Idiot wind, blowing through the flowers on your tomb,
Blowing through the curtains in your room.
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth,
You're an idiot, babe.
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe.

It was gravity which pulled us down and destiny which broke us apart
You tamed the lion in my cage but it just wasn't enough to change my heart.
Now everything's a little upside down, as a matter of fact the wheels have stopped,
What's good is bad, what's bad is good, you'll find out when you reach the top
You're on the bottom.

I noticed at the ceremony, your corrupt ways had finally made you blind
I can't remember your face anymore, your mouth has changed, your eyes
don't look into mine.
The priest wore black on the seventh day and sat stone-faced while the building
burned.
I waited for you on the running boards, near the cypress trees, while the springtime
turned Slowly into autumn.

Idiot wind, blowing like a circle around my skull,
From the Grand Coulee Dam to the Capitol.
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth,
You're an idiot, babe.
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe.

I can't feel you anymore, I can't even touch the books you've read
Every time I crawl past your door, I been wishin' I was somebody else instead.
Down the highway, down the tracks, down the road to ecstasy,
I followed you beneath the stars, hounded by your memory
And all your ragin' glory.

I been double-crossed now for the very last time and now I'm finally free,
I kissed goodbye the howling beast on the borderline which separated you from me.
You'll never know the hurt I suffered nor the pain I rise above,
And I'll never know the same about you, your holiness or your kind of love,
And it makes me feel so sorry.

Idiot wind, blowing through the buttons of our coats,
Blowing through the letters that we wrote.
Idiot wind, blowing through the dust upon our shelves,
We're idiots, babe.
It's a wonder we can even feed ourselves.

Six-foot-six, he stood on the ground,
He weighed two hundred and thirty-five pounds,
But I saw that giant of a man brought down to his knees by love.

He was the kind of a man who would gamble on luck,
Look you in the eye and never back up,
But I saw him cryin' like a little whipped pup because of love.

You can't see it with your eyes; hold it in your hand;
But like the wind that covers our land;
Strong enough to rule the heart of any man,
This thing called love.
It can lift you up; never let you down;
Take your world and turn it all around.
Ever since time nothing's ever been found,
That's stronger than love.

Most men are like me, they struggle in doubt,
They trouble their minds, they in and they out,
Too busy with livin' to worry about a little word like love.
But when I see a mother's tenderness,
As she holds her young close to her breast,
Then I thank God that the world's been blessed,
With a thing called love.

You can't see it with your eyes; hold it in your hand;
But like the wind that covers our land;
Strong enough to rule the heart of any man,
This thing called love.
It can lift you up; never let you down;
Take your world and turn it all around.
Ever since time nothing's ever been found,
That's stronger than love.

Ever since time nothing's ever been found,
That's stronger than love.

This thing called love I just can't handle it
this thing called love I must get round to it
I ain't ready
Crazy little thing called love
This (This Thing) called love
(Called Love)
It cries (Like a baby)
In a cradle all night
It swings (Woo Woo)
It jives (Woo Woo)
It shakes all over like a jelly fish,
I kinda like it
Crazy little thing called love

There goes my baby
She knows how to Rock n' roll
She drives me crazy
She gives me hot and cold fever
Then she leaves me in a cool cool sweat

I gotta be cool relax, get hip
Get on my track's
Take a back seat, hitch-hike
And take a long ride on my motor bike
Until I'm ready
Crazy little thing called love

I gotta be cool relax, get hip
Get on my track's
Take a back seat, hitch-hike
And take a long ride on my motor bike
Until I'm ready (Ready Freddie)
Crazy little thing called love

This thing called love I just can't handle it
this thing called love I must get round to it
I ain't ready
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love

When the little bluebird
Who has never said a word
Starts to sing Spring
When the little bluebell
At the bottom of the dell
Starts to ring Ding dong Ding dong
When the little blue clerk
In the middle of his work
Starts a tune to the moon up above
It is nature that is all
Simply telling us to fall in love

And that's why birds do it, bees do it
Even educated fleas do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love

Cold Cape Cod clams, 'gainst their wish, do it
Even lazy jellyfish do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love

I've heard that lizards and frogs do it
Layin' on a rock
They say that roosters do it
With a doodle and

Some Argentines, without means do it
I hear even Boston beans do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love

When the little bluebird
Who has never said a word
starts to sing Spring spring spring
When the little bluebell
At the bottom of the dell
Starts to ring Ding ding ding
When the little blue clerk
In the middle of his work
Starts a tune

The most refined lady bugs do it
When a gentleman calls
Moths in your rugs they do it
What's the use of moth balls

The chimpanzees in the zoos do it,
Some courageous kangaroos do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love

I'm sure sometimes on the sly you do it
Maybe even you and I might do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love


LMAO again at the language checker!! - cluck, cluuuck, cluuck

Don't worry about a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be all right.
Singin': "Don't worry about a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be all right!"

Rise up this mornin',
Smiled with the risin' sun,
Three little birds
Pitch by my doorstep
Singin' sweet songs
Of melodies pure and true,
Sayin', ("This is my message to you-ou-ou:"

Singin': "Don't worry 'bout a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be all right."
Singin': "Don't worry (don't worry) 'bout a thing,

There'll be no strings to bind your hands
Not if my love can't bind your heart
And there's no need to take a stand
For it was I who chose to start
I see no need to take me home
I'm old enough to face the dawn

Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Then slowly turn away from me

Maybe the sun's light will be dim
It won't matter anyhow
If morning's echo says we've sinned
Well, it was what I wanted now
And if we're victims of the night I
won't be blinded by the light

Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Then slowly turn away from me

I won't beg you to stay with me
Through the tears of the day
Of the years, baby

Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby
Just call me angel of the morning, angel
Then slowly turn away from me

Oh baby, I love you baby, oh baby

sky is crying, streets are full of tears
rain come down, wash away my fears
and all this writing's on the wall
oh i can read between the lines

rain come down forgive this dirty town
rain come down give this dirty town a drink of water
a drink of wine

if i've been hard on you
i never chose to be
i never wanted no one else
i tried my best to be somebody to be close to
hand in hand like lovers are supposed to

as you sleep, i'd think my heart would break in two
kiss a cheek, i'd stop myself from waking you
but in the dark you speak my name
and say baby, what's wrong

here i am babe, i'm coming back for more
i'm like a wave that's got to crash into the shore
and if my love's in vain
how come my love is so strong?

if i've been hard on you
i never chose to be
i never wanted no one else
i tried my best to be somebody you'd be close to
hand in hand like lovers are supposed to

Rain
Thought I heard a footstep
Thought I heard the phone
Standing on the doorstep
Listening alone
And all I hear is rain

Thought I saw your headlight
Thought I heard your car
Shadows on the streetlights
Fog and nothing more
And all I hear is rain

And things I tried to say
Tried as many times
This rain is falling from my eyes
These kinds of days (I really miss you now)
Seasons are changed again (I really miss you now)
I search in vain
I wonder where you are
Watching the rain
And it makes me remember
Things I tried to say

Rain
Laughing at the window
Thought I saw your face
Only cloudy images
On my window pane
And all I hear is rain

And things I tried to say

Save the planet for another day
"attention shoppers, buy with a conscience and save"
Save the planet for another day
"save alaska! let the caribou stay"
Don't care what the governments say
"they're all bought and paid for anyway"
Save the planet for another day
"hey big oil, what do you say?"

We were runnin' through the night
Never knowin' if we would see the light
Paranoid schizophrenic visions
Livin' in fear of the wrong decisions

We got to wake up
We got to keep goin'
If they follow us
There's no way of knowin'

We got a job to do
We got to
Save mother earth

Be the ocean when it meets the sky
"you can make a difference, if you really try"
Be the magic in the northern lights
"six days....six nights"
Be the river as it rolls along
"it has three eyed fish and it's smellin' strong"
Be the rain you remember fallin'
"be the rain, be the rain"

Yeah rain was fallin' and we're soakin' wet
Hail is beatin' down on our heads
The wind is blowin' through our hair
Faces frozen in the frigid air

We got to get there
Alaska
We got to be there
Before the big machines

We got a job to do
We got to
Save mother earth

Dream the hunter on the western plain
"the birds are all gone, where did they go?"
Dream the fisherman in his boat
"he's comin' home empty, he's barely afloat"
Dream the logger in the great northwest
"they're runnin' out of trees, they got to give it a rest"
(there's no other way to cut it)
Dream the farmer in the old heartland
"corporate greed and chemicals are killin' the land"

Next mornin' Sun was up at dawn
She looked around and earth was gone
Dark visions he had last night
He needed peace, he needed light

He heard the rumble and
He saw the big machines
The green army rose
It was a bad dream

He had a job to do
He had to
Save mother earth

Be the ocean when it meets the sky
"greek freighters are dumping crap somewhere right now"
Be the magic in the northern lights
"the ice is melting!"
Be the river as it rolls along
"toxic waste dumpin' from corporate farms"
Be the rain you remember fallin'
"be the rain, be the rain"
Save the planet for another day
"be the rain, be the rain"
Be the river as it rolls along
"be the rain, be the rain"

Tell me can the hateful chain be broken?
Production and consumption define our hollow lives.
Avarice has led us 'cross the ocean,
Toward a land that's better, much more bountiful and wide.
When will mankind finally come to realize
His surfeit has become his demise?
How much is enough to kill yourself?
That quantity is known today, as we blow ourselves away.
Tell me is there anything so sure?
Rapacity, tenacity, capacity for more!
Like a dog that feeds until he suffers,
The infirmity of man is brough on by his selfish cure.
When will mankind finally come to realize
His surfeit has become his demise?
How much is enough to kill yourself?
That quantity is known today, as we blow ourselves away.

Packaged like a rebel or a hero
Target mass appeal
To make an audience feel
He really means it

Package the illusion of persona
Careful to conceal
The fact that she's only too real
She's got to screen it

Hit you in a soft place
A melody so sweet
A strong and simple beat
That you can dance to

Watch his every move
Superconductor
Orchestrate illusions
Superconductor
Watch his every move
Superconductor
Hoping you'll believe
Designing to deceive
That's entertainment

He can put a target on the market
Bask in your applause
Reality withdraws
Now he believes it

The role becomes the actor
She's addicted to applause
The stage a world because
She never leaves it

Hit you in a soft place
With sentimental ease
They know the fantasies
That you romance to

Watch her every move
Superconductor
She can manipulate reactions
Superconductor
Watch her every move
Superconductor
Pin the donkeys on her tail
Fantasy for sale
That's entertainment...

Mama loves a baby, daddy love syou too
and the sea may look warm to you, babe
and the sky may look blue

ooooooo oooooooooo oooooooooo ooooooooo babe
ooooooo oooooooooo oooo baby blue
ooooooo oooooooooo oooooooooo ooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooo babe

If you should go skating
on the thin ice
of one life
dragging behind you
the silent reproach
of a million tear stained eyes
don't be surprised, when a crack in the ice
appears under your feet
you slip out of your depth
and out of your mind
with your fear flowing out behind you
as you claw the thin ice

You better make your face up,
In your favorite disguise,
With your button-down lips,
And your roller blind eyes.
With your empty smile,
And your hungry heart,
Feel the bile rising,
From your guilty past.
With your nerves in tatters,
As the cockleshell shatters,
And the hammers batter,
Down your door,
You better run.

You better run all day,
And run all night.
And keep your dirty feelings deep inside.
And if you’re taking your girlfriend out tonight,
You better park the car well out of sight.
’cause if they catch you in the back seat,
Trying to pick her locks,
They’re gonna send you back to mother,
In a cardboard box.
You better run!

was gonna put the next song on the album but realized it could be taken out of context...




hello
is there anybody in there?
just nod if you can hear me
is there anyone home?

come on now
i hear you're feeling down
well i can ease your pain
get you on your feet again

relax
i'll need some information first
just the basic facts
can you show me where it hurts?

there is no pain you are receding
a distant ship smoke on the horizon
you are only coming through in waves
your lips move but i can't hear what you're saying
when i was a child i had a fever
my hands felt just like two balloons
now i've got that feeling once again
i can't explain you would not understand
this is not how i am
i have become
comfortably numb

ok
just a little pin prick
there'll be no more AAAAAHHHHHH
but you may feel a little sick

relax
i do believe it's working good
that'll keep you going through the show
come on it's time to go

there is no pain you are receding
a distant ship smoke on the horizon
you are only coming through in waves
your lips move but i can't hear what you're saying
when i was a child i caught a fleeting glimpse
out of the corner of my eye
i turned to look but it was gone
i cannot put my finger on it now
the child is grown the dream is gone
i have become
comfortably numb

Roger Waters a la carte:
-------------------------------------
So I stood by the roadside
The soles of my running shoes gripping the tarmac
Like gunmetal magnets
Fixed on the fron of her Fassbinder face
Was the kind of a smile
That only a rather dull child could have drawn
While attempting a graveyard in the moonlight
But she was impressed
You could see that she thought I looked fine
And when she turned sweeter
The reason (between you and me) was
She'd just seen my green Lamborghini

So we went for a spin in the country
To feel the wind in our hair
To feel the power of my engine
To feel the thrill of desire

And then in the trees I heard a twig snap
Warning lights flashed on my map
I opened my eyes and to my surprise...

Well we rifle through the night,
Like riders on the run now, in the street--
Holding back the blinding light,
’cause a thousand eyes can be so indiscreet,
And we hide away, love the night away,
And we run between the shadows and the light,

*we’re children of the night,
Runnin’ from the light,
Children of the night,
Of the night, oh yeah.*

In the day we pass like strangers,
’cause we fear the consequences of our love,
And we realize the danger,
Still we choose to take our chances on our love,
And we hide away, love the night away,
And we run between the shadows and the light...

I dunno, PF without Waters just...well, isn't PF. Some of Dave's stuff is easier on the ears, though, I have to say.

Also:

Where were you?
When I was burned and broken?
While the days slipped by, from my window, watching

and where were youuuuu?
when I was hurt and I was helpless?
Cause the things you say and the things you do, surround me.

While you were hanging yourself on someone else's words
dying to believe in what you heard
I was staring straight
into the shining sun.

The sun is a mass of incandescent gas
A gigantic nuclear furnace
Where hydrogen is built into helium
At a temperature of millions of degrees

Yo ho, it’s hot, the sun is not
A place where we could live
But here on earth there’d be no life
Without the light it gives

We need it’s light
We need it’s heat
We need it’s energy
Without the sun, without a doubt
There’d be no you and me

The sun is a mass of incandescent gas
A gigantic nuclear furnace
Where hydrogen is built into helium
At a temperature of millions of degrees

The sun is hot

It is so hot that everything on it is a gas: iron, copper, aluminum, and many others.

The sun is large

If the sun were hollow, a million earths could fit inside. and yet, the sun is only a middle-sized star.

The sun is far away

About 93 million miles away, and that’s why it looks so small.

And even when it’s out of sight
The sun shines night and day

The sun gives heat
The sun gives light
The sunlight that we see
The sunlight comes from our own sun’s
Atomic energy

Scientists have found that the sun is a huge atom-smashing machine. the heat and light of the sun come from the nuclear reactions of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and helium.*

The sun is a mass of incandescent gas
A gigantic nuclear furnace
Where hydrogen is built into helium
At a temperature of millions of degrees

Make a hole with a gun perpendicular
To the name of this town in a desk-top globe
Exit wound in a foreign nation
Showing the home of the one this was written for
My apartment looks upside down from there
Water spirals the wrong way out the sink
And her voice is a backwards record
It's like a whirlpool and it never ends

Ana Ng and I are getting old
And we still haven't walked in the glow of each other's majestic presence
Listen Ana hear my words
They're the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you

All alone at the '64 World's Fair
Eighty dolls yelling "Small girl after all"
Who was at the Dupont Pavilion?
Why was the bench still warm? Who had been there?
Or the time when the storm tangled up the wire
To the horn on the pole at the bus depot
And in the back of the edge of hearing
These are the words the voice was repeating:

Ana Ng and I are getting old
And we still haven't walked in the glow of each other's majestic presence
Listen Ana hear my words
They're the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you

When I was driving once I saw this painted on a bridge:
"I don't want the world, I just want your half"

They don't need me here, and I know you're there (don't need me)
Where the world goes by like the humid air (world goes by)
And it sticks like a broken record
Everything sticks like a broken record
Everything sticks until it goes away (it goes home)
And the truth is, we don't know anything (don't know)

there's only two songs in me
and i just wrote the third
don't know where i got the inspiration
or how i wrote the words
spent my whole life just digging up my music's shallow grave
for the two songs in me and the third one i just made

a rich man once told me
hey, life's a funny thing
a poor man once told me
that he can't afford to speak
now i'm in the middle like a bird without a beak

cause there's just two songs in me
and i just wrote the third
don't know where i got the inspiration
or how i wrote the words
spent my whole life just digging up my music's shallow grave
for the two songs in me and the third one i just made

so i went to the president
and i asked ole whats-his-name
has he ever gotten writer's block
or something like the same
he just started talking like he was on tv
"if there's just two songs in you boy, whaddya want from me?"

so i bought myself some denim pants
and a silver guitar
but i politely told the ladies
you'll still have to call me sir
cause i have to keep my self respect
i'll never be a star
cause there's just two songs in me
and this is number three

I'm not a HUGE fan of PF or Roger Waters actually, but I like RW: The Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking. Love Eric Clapton's guitar work on it. However, it has never caused me to seek out other Roger Waters albums. One is enough. Some artists are like that for me. I'm almost afraid that, if I didn't like their other stuff, it would taint my adoration for the one album. Make any sense?

Ok, I couldn't resist...
-------------------------------------------
I've been alive forever, and I wrote the very first song
I put the words and the melodies together
I am music and I write the songs

I write the songs that make the whole world sing
I write the songs of love and special things
I write the songs that make the young girls cry
I write the songs, I write the songs

My home lies deep within you
And I've got my own place in your soul
Now, when I look out through your eyes
I'm young again, even though I'm very old

CHORUS

Oh my music makes you dance
And gives you spirit to take a chance
And I wrote some rock 'n' roll so you can move
Music fills your heart
Well, that's a real fine place to start
It's from me it's for you
It's from you, it's for me
It's a worldwide symphony

These are dangerous time we live in
I heard a man once say
If you're e to flights of fancy
Your dreams can fly away
See the sights around you
Of breakdown and decay
Wrought by the greed for a better life
For which you have to pay

From Glasgow town to London
Down the motorway
There's people standing in the rain
Looking for any way
To take them down to where they're bound
It's a part of another way
It's called the art of survival
In a modern age

Dance before the storm, don't look back to where you've been
The horror's even further as the sands of time run thin
Dance before the storm as the machinery breaks down
Watch the sky go black with anger, but no-one makes a sound

From Albion Hill to the Old Chain Pier
You can hear a person say
spare some change for all me pains
So if your head spins
round - go underground
Away from the games they play
People down there are trying to care
And let each one have their say
it's not revolution tactics
Or cause for anarchy
Just a natural fight for a natural life
Of which Systems are afraid
And if it all surrounds you
Seems like there's no escape
And there's someone stood in front of you
Saying do it in their way
Turn your eyes towards the tides
See how they never change
The sands of time will break their mime
Like riding on a wave

When the river of rebellion overflows, I'll be there
When the seed of discontent plants and grows, I'll be there
Watching for the sun through the dark and rainy storm
Searching for the keys to the dungeons old and worn
Let me tell you, I'll be there

When the shadow of the tyrant falls and sweeps across the land
When men would steal from others with paper in their hand
When people search for answers and the answers never come
When their troubles would be over if they thought and fought as one
Let me tell you, I'll be there

Whispering of yesterday has grown into a roar
Winds of freedom blowing out of every distant shore
When the time is ready and the call is loud and clear
Let me tell you, I'll be there

When the thunder of opression roars and crackles, I'll be there
When those who would be free are wearing shackles, I'll be there
For the day is gonna come when they'll throw away their chains
Lift their heads and raise their arms for the struggle that remains
And let me tell you, I'll be there

Whispering of yesterday has turned into a roar
Winds of freedom blowing out of every distant shore
When the time is ready and the call is loud and clear

When the thunder of opression roars and crackles, I'll be there
When those who would be free are wearing shackles, I'll be there
For the day is gonna come when they'll throw away their chains
Lift their heads and raise their arms for the struggle that remains

Let me tell you
Let me tell you
Let me tell you, I'll be there

to remember the story
we walked upon the moor
there was a famine on the land
people on their knees
ruled from overseas
to remember the truth of why
so many died
the same goes on today

and though i never stood there till then
i knew the tale from beginning to end
and we remembered and we understood
and we said we would do what we could
forever if it takes that long
we got a right to live
and it's right to give our all
to right this wrong

to remember the feeling
that comes with the falling
of a new machine
or was it the power?
it was the hour of despair
and we stood in the shadows

and though i never stood there till then
i knew the tale from beginning to end
and we remembered
and we understood
and we said we would do what we could
forever if it takes that long
we got a right to live
and it's right to give our all
to right this wrong

to remember the wind blowing free
remember the tree standing tall
the planet is shaking
why are we waiting
why are we taking so long?

and though i never stood there till then
i knew the tale from beginning to end
and we remembered and we understood
and we said we would do what we could

I sat within the valley green
I sat me with my true love.
My sad heart strove the two between
The old love and the new love.
The old for her the new
That made me think on Ireland dearly.
While the soft wind blew down the glade
and shook the golden barley.

T'was hard the woeful words to frame
To break the ties that bound us.
But harder still to bear the shame
of foreign chains around us.
And so I said the mountain glen
I'll meet at morning early.
And I'll join the bold united men
While soft winds shook the barley.

T'was sad I kissed away her tears
My fond arm round her flinging.
When a foe, man's shot burst on our ears
From out the wild woods ringing.
A bullet pierced my true love's side
In life's young spring so early.
And on my breast in blood she died
While soft winds shook the barley.

But blood for blood without remorse
I've ta'en at oulart hollow.
I've lain my true love's clay like corpse
Where I full soon must follow.
Around her grave I've wandered drear
Noon, night, and morning early.
With breaking heart when e'er I hear
The wind that shakes the barley.

Ten years ago, on a cold dark night
Someone was killed, 'neath the town hall light
There were few at the scene, but they all agreed
That the slayer who ran, looked a lot like me

The judge said son, what is your alibi
If you were somewhere else, then you won't have to die
I spoke not a word, thou it meant my life
For I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife

Chorus
She walks these hills in a long black veil
She visits my grave when the night winds wail
Nobody knows, nobody sees
Nobody knows but me

Oh, the scaffold is high and eternity's near
She stood in the crowd and shed not a tear
But late at night, when the north wind blows
In a long black veil, she cries ov're my bones

it was five years come this august
she remembers well the day
the day the fever got him
took him far away

far away from always knowing
that the love they held was true
far away the fiddler's bowing
the grass forever blue

it was in the dead of winter
when her man first caught the chill
and he said he heard the angels singin
"cabin on the hill"
through the springtime he was groaning
"the good times are past and gone"
by the summer she was moaning
"old lover please come home"

and she stands out in the midnight
and the moonlight all aglow
she prays to carter stanley
won't you please tell bill monroe
rather be in some dark hollow
than some dark deep shady grove
than to be a bluegrass widow

"will you miss me when i'm gone"
were the final words she heard
"darlin think of what you done"
then replied his knoxville girl
then the leaves had started turning
when his mind began to fail
then he broke down in a break down
now she wears a long black veil

and she stands out in the midnight
and the moonlight all aglow
she prays to carter stanley
won't you please tell bill monroe
rather be in some dark hollow
or some dark deep shady grove
than to be a bluegrass widow

never know how much i love you
never know how much i care
when you put your arms around me
I give you fever that's so hard to bare

you give me fever
when you kiss me
fever when you hold me tight
Fever
In the morning
Fever all through the night

Sun lights up the day time
moon lights up the night
I light up when you call my name
and you know i'm gonna treat you right

you give me fever
when you kiss me
fever when you hold me tight
Fever
In the morning
Fever all through the night

Everybodies got the fever
That is somethin you all know
Fever is'nt such a new thing
Fever start long ago

Romeo love Juliet
Juliet she felt the same
When he put his arms around her
He said Julie baby your my flame

Now give me fever
When were kissin
Fever with that flame in you
Fever
I'm a fire
Fever yeah i burn for you

Captain smith and pocahontas
had a very mad affair
When her daddy tried to kill him
She said daddy oh don't you dare

He gives me fever
With his kisses
fever when he holds me tight
Fever
I'm his misses
Daddy won't you treat him right

Now you listened to my story
Here's the point that i have made
Chicks were born to give you fever
Be it fair and have a sense of game

They give you fever
when you kiss them
Fever if you really learned
Fever
Till you sizzlen
But what a lovely way to burn

But what a lovely way to burn
But what a lovely way to burn
But what a lovely way to burn

a lovestruck romeo sings a streetsuss serenade
laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made
finds a convenient streetlight steps out of the shade
says something like you and me babe how about it?

juliet says hey it's romeo you nearly gimme a heart attack
he's underneath the window she's singing hey la my boyfriend's back
you shoudn't come around here singing up at people like that
anyway what you gonna do about it?

juliet the dice were loaded from the start
and i bet and 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 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
now you just say oh romeo yeah you know i used to have a scene with him

juliet when we made love you used to cry
you said i love you like the stars above i'll love you till 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?

i can't do the talk like they talking on the tv
and i can't do a love song like the way its meant to be
i can't do everything but i'd 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 bad company
all i do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme
julie 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 till 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?

a lovestruck romeo sings a streetsuss serenade
laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made
finds a convenient streetlight steps out of the shade
says something like you and me babe how about it?

sweet surrender on the quay side
you remember we used to run and hide
in the shadows of the cargoes i take you one time
and we're counting all the numbers
down to the waterline

near misses on the dog leap stairways
french kisses in the darkened doorways
foghorn blowing out wild and cold
policeman he shines a light on my shoulder

up comes a coaster fast and silent in the night
over my shoulder all you can see are pilot lights
no money in our jackets and our jeans are torn
your hands are cold but your lips are warm

she can see him on the jetty where they used to know
she can feel him in the places where they used to go
when she's walking by the river or the railway line
she can still hear him whisper
let's go down to the waterline

You get a shiver in the dark
It's been raining in the park but meantime
South of the river you stop and you hold everything
A band is blowing Dixie double four time
You feel all right when you hear that music ring

You step inside but you don't see too many faces
Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down
Too much competition too many other places
But not too many horns can make that sound
Way on downsouth way on downsouth London town

You check out Guitar George he knows all the chords
Mind he's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing
And an old guitar is all he can afford
When he gets up under the lights to play his thing

And Harry doesn't mind if he doesn't make the scene
He's got a daytime job he's doing alright
He can play honky tonk just like anything
Saving it up for Friday night
With the Sultans with the Sultans of Swing

Amd a crowd of young boys they're fooling around in the corner
Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles
They don't give a damn about any trumpet playing band
It ain't what they call rock and roll
And the Sultans played Creole

And then the man he steps right up to the microphone
And says at last just as the time bell rings
'Thank you goodnight now it's time to go home'
and he makes it fast with one more thing
'We are the Sultans of Swing'

after 2000 came 2000 and one
to be the new champions
we were there for to run
from springtime in arizona
till fall in monterrey
and the raceways were battlefields
and we fought em all the way

was phoenix in the morning i had a wakeup call
she went around without a warning
put me in the wall
i drove long beach california with three cracked vertebrae
and it was on to indianapolis indiana in may

well the brickyard's there to crucify
anyone who will not learn
i climbed a mountain to qualify
went flat through the turns
but i was down in the might have beens
and an old pal good as died
and i sat down in gasoline alley and i cried

well we were in at the kill again
on the milwaukee mile
and in june up in michigan
we were robbed at belle isle
and it was on to portland oregon
for the g.i. joe
and i'd blown off almost everyone
when my motor let go

new england, ontario we died in the dirt
those walls from mid-ohio to toronto they hurt
and so we came to road america
where we burned up at the lake
but at the speedway at nazareth i made no mistake

It may have been Camelot for Jack and Jacqueline
But on the Che Guevara highway filling up with gasoline
Fidel Castro's brother spies a rich lady who's crying
Over luxury's disappointment
So he walks over and he's trying
To sympathise with her but he thinks that he should warn her
That the Third World is just around the corner

In the Soviet Union a scientist is blinded
By the resumption of nuclear testing and he is reminded
That Dr Robert Oppenheimer's optimism fell
At the first hurdle

In the Cheese Pavilion and the only noise I hear
Is the sound of someone stacking chairs
And mopping up spilt beer
And someone asking questions and basking in the light
Of the fifteen fame filled minutes of the fanzine writer

Mixing Pop and Politics he asks me what the use is
I offer him embarrassment and my usual excuses
While looking down the corridor
Out to where the van is waiting
I'm looking for the Great Leap Forwards

Jumble sales are organised and pamphlets have been posted
Even after closing time there's still parties to be hosted
You can be active with the activists
Or sleep in with the sleepers
While you're waiting for the Great Leap Forwards

One leap forward, two leaps back
Will politics get me the sack?

Here comes the future and you can't run from it
If you've got a blacklist I want to be on it

It's a mighty long way down rock 'n roll
From Top of the Pops to drawing the dole

If no one seems to understand
Start your own revolution and cut out the middleman

In a perfect world we'd all sing in tune
But this is reality so give me some room

So join the struggle while you may
The Revolution is just a T-shirt away
Waiting for the Great Leap Forwards

i cried when they shot medgar evers
tears ran down my spine
i cried when they shot mr. kennedy
as though i lost a father of mine
but malcolm X got what was coming
he got what he asked for this time
so love me, love me, love me
i'm a liberal

i go to civil rights rallies
and i put down the old D.A.R.
i love harry and sidney and sammy
i hope every colored boy becomes a star
but don't talk about revolution
that's going a little bit too far
so love me, love me, love me
i'm a liberal

i cheered when humphrey was chosen
my faith in the system restored
i'm glad the commies were thrown out
of the AFL-CIO board
i love puerto ricans and negros
as long as they don't move next door
so love me, love me, love me
i'm a liberal

the people of old mississippi
should all hang their heads in shame
i can't understand how their minds work
what's the matter don't they watch les crane?
but if you ask me to bus my children
i hope the cops take down your name
so love me, love me, love me
i'm a liberal

i read new republic and nation
i've learned to take every view
you know i've memorized lerner and golden
i feel like i'm almost a jew
but when it comes to times like korea
there's no one more red, white and blue
so love me, love me, love me
i'm a liberal

i vote for the democratic party
they want the UN to be strong
i go to all the pete seeger concerts
he sure gets me singing those songs
i'll send all the money you ask for
but don't ask me to come on along
so love me, love me, love me
i'm a liberal

once i was young and impulsive
i wore every conceivable pin
even went to the socialist meetings
learned all the old union hymns
but i've grown older and wiser
and that's why i'm turning you in
so love me, love me, love me
i'm a liberal

The dust has settled,
replaces the bulbs in all the lights.
I guess I'll get no sleep tonight.
A revolution happened.
Oh, sorry, you haven't heard?
We are the children of the new world.
If you're quiet you can watch if you like.
They say the future's beginning tonight.
Whole empires will crumble.
Civilisations will fall.
Lie on the bed, hear the sound of it all.
No anger, no guilt and no sorrow;
it sounds unlikely, I know, but tomorrow
you will wake up to find that your whole life has changed.
Although nothing looks different
a revolution took place.
I love the way you do it.
I love the way you put them on.
You know the answers but you get it wrong.
(Just to confuse things).
Why did it seem so difficult to realise a simple truth?
The revolution begins and ends with you.
Now all the breakdowns and nightmares look small.
Now we decided not to die after all.
Because the meek shall inherit absolutely nothing at all.
If you stopped being so feeble you could have so much more.
The answer was here all the time, you see.
Just how I missed it is a mystery to me.
I have waited and waited for this day to arrive.
The revolution was televised.
Now it's over, bye bye.
It's over, bye bye.
Yeah, we made it.
Just by the skin of our teeth.
Perfection is over
(The Rave is over)
Sheffield is over.
The Fear is over.
Guilt is over
(Please leave the building quietly)
Bergerac is over.
The hangover is over
Men are over
Women are over.
Cholesterol is over.
Tapers are over.
Irony is over.
Bye bye.
Bye bye.

in my rear view mirror the sun is going down
sinking behind bridges in the road
i think of all the good things
that we have left undone
and i suffer premonitions
confirm suspicions
of the holocaust to come

the rusty wire that holds the cork
that keeps the anger in
gives way and suddenly it's day again
the sun is in the east
even though the day is done
two suns in the sunset
could be the human race is run

like the moment when the brakes lock
and you slide towards the big truck
you stretch the frozen moments with your fear

and you'll never see their faces
and you'll never hear their voices
you have no recourse to the law anymore

as the windshield melts and my tears evaporate
leaving only charcoal to defend
finally i understand the feelings of the few
ashes to diamonds
foe and friend
we were all equal in the end

Do unto others as they have done unto you
But what in the hell is this world coming to?
Blow the universe into nothingness
Nuclear warfare shall lay us to rest

[chorus]

Fight fire with fire
Ending is near
Fight fire with fire
Bursting with fear
We all shall die

Time is like a fuse, short and burning fast
Armageddon is here, like said in the past

[chorus]

Soon to fill our lungs the hot winds of death
The gods are laughing, so take your last breath

[chorus]

Takes a second to say goodbye
Say goodbye, oh, oh, oh
It takes a second to say goodbye
Say goodbye, oh, oh, oh, say bye bye

Where you going to now

Lightning flashes across the sky
East to west, do or die
Like a thief in the night
See the world by candlelight

Fall, rise and...fall, rise and...

In an apartment on Time Square
You can assemble them anywhere
Held to ransom, hell to pay
A revolution everyday
USSR, GDR, London, New York, Peking
It's the puppets, it's the puppets
Who pull the strings

Fall, rise and...fall, rise and...

Say goodbye, say goodbye
Say goodbye, say goodbye
Say goodbye

It takes a second to say goodbye
Say goodbye, oh, oh, oh

Push the button and pull the plug
Say goodbye, oh, oh, oh

Fall, rise and...fall, rise and...

And they're doing the atomic bomb
Do they know where the dance comes from
Yes they're doing the atomic bomb
They want you to sing along
Say goodbye, say goodbye
Say goodbye

All is quiet on new year’s day,
A world in white gets underway,
And I want to be with you,
Be with you night and day.
Nothing changes on new year’s day.
I will be with you again.
I will be with you again.

Under a blood-red sky
A crowd has gathered in black and white.
Arms entwined, the chosen few,
Newspapers say, it says it’s true.
And we can break through,
Though torn in two we can be one.
I will begin again, I will begin again.
Oh and maybe the time is right,
Oh maybe tonight.
I will be with you again.
I will be with you again.

And so we are told this is the golden age
And gold is the reason for the wars we wage.
Though I want to be with you,
To be with you night and day.
Nothing changes on new year’s day.

We're leaving together
But still it's farewell
And maybe we'll come back
To earth, who can tell
I guess there is no one to blame
We're leaving the ground
Will things ever be the same again

It's the final countdown
The final countdown

We're heading for Venus and still we stand tall
'Cause maybe they've seen us and welcome us all yeah
With so many light years to go and things to be found
I'm sure that we'll all miss her so

It's the final countdown
The final countdown
The final countdown

The final countdown oh ooh
It's the final countdown
The final countdown
The final countdown
It's the final countdown
We're leaving together
The final countdown
We'll all miss her so
It's the final countdown
It's the final countdown

Imagine a time
When it all began in the dying days of a war
A weapon -- that would settle the score
Whoever found it first
Would be sure to do their worst --
They always had before...

Imagine a man
Where it all began a scientist pacing the floor
In each nation -- always eager to explore
To build the best big stick
To turn the winning trick --
But this was something more...

The big bang -- took and shook the world
Shot down the rising sun
The end was begun -- it would hit everyone
When the chain reaction was done
The big shots -- try to hold it back
Fools try to wish it away
The hopeful depend on a world without end
Whatever the hopeless may say

Imagine a place
Where it all began
They gathered from across the land
To work in the secrecy of the desert sand
All of the brightest boys
To play with the biggest toys --
More than they bargained for...

Imagine a man
When it all began
The pilot of enola gay
Flying out of the shockwave
On that august day
All the powers that be
And the course of history
Would be changed for evermore...

Enola Gay, you should have stayed at home yesterday
Oho it can't describe the feeling and the way you lied
These games you play, they're gonna end it all in tears someday
Oho Enola Gay, it shouldn't ever have to end this way
It's 8:15, that's the time that it's always been
We got your message on the radio, condition's normal and you're coming home
Enola Gay, is mother proud of little boy today
Oho, this kiss you give, it's never ever gonna fade away
Enola Gay, it shouldn't ever have to end this way
Oho Enola Gay, it should've faded our dreams away
It's 8:15, oh that's the time that it's always been
We got your message on the radio, condition's normal and you're coming home
Enola Gay, is mother proud of little boy today
Oho, this you give, it's never ever gonna fade away

The profit is a fool, the spirtual man is mad,
For the multitude of thine inequity, and the great hatred. (hosea 9:7)

Everyone s trying to decide,
Where to go when theres no place to hide.
I follow the bombs as theyre coming down.
This must have been hallowed ground.

No matter what they decide to have done.
Burn up the clouds, block out the sun.
My hope is in one they cant bring down.
My soul is in hallowed ground.

I see the fear, its on the rise.
Lets catch the enemy by surprise.
Burry your treasure where it cant be found.
Burry it deep in hallowed ground.

Everybody's intent on killing someone
The streets are closed and there's a kid on the run
The bullets scream out from gun to gun
Everybody's intent on being someone

The cold and darkness of a criminal dawn
Wrapped in blankets gotta keep ourselves warm
A child in the arms of a teenage mum
Who will be there, who will be the next victim
Of the criminal dawn?

Old friends meet on the edge of town
Sharing conversation, hoping things will soon get better
While the children meet, got the world at their feet
Not knowing what's around the corner
Are we living for an uncertain future?

Down on the corner sits a broken man
Lives by the bottle, swears "never again"
Lost his money on the dogs and gin
Now he looks for his supper in a garbage can

The kids hang around by the old schoolground
Right by the river where the body was found
Throwing stones on hallowed ground
Who will be there, who will be the next victim
Of the criminal dawn?

Old friends meet on the edge of town
Sharing conversation, hoping things will soon get better
While the children meet, got the world at their feet
Not knowing what's around the corner
Are we living for an uncertain future?

In the cold and darkness of a criminal dawn
Wrapped in blankets gotta keep ourselves warm
A child in the arms of a teenage mum
Who will be there, who will be the last victim
Of the criminal dawn?

Old friends meet on the edge of town
Sharing conversation, hoping things will soon get better
While the children meet, got the world at their feet
Not knowing what's around the corner
Are we living for an uncertain future?

Theres a green plaid jacket on the back of the chair
Its like a moment frozen forever there

Mom and dad had a lot of big plans for their little man
...so proud.
Mamas gone crazy cause her babys shot down
By some teenage car chase war out of bounds
It was the wrong place wrong time wrong end of a gun.

Shoot straight from the hip
Gone forever in a trigger slip
You know, it could have been
It could have been your brother.
Shoot straight shoot to kill
Blame each other, blame yourselves
God is a bullet have mercy on us everyone

Theyre gonna call me sir theyll all stop picking on me
Well Im a high school grad Im over 5 foot 3
Ill get a badge and a gun and Ill join the p.d.
Theyll see
He didnt have to use the gun they put in his hand
But when the guy came at him, well he panicked and ran
And its thirty long years before they give him another chance
And its sad sad sad

John lennon, doctor king, harvey milk
All for goddamn nothing
God is a bullet have mercy on us everyone

A young cowboy named Billy Joe
grew restless on the farm
A boy filled with wonderlust
who really meant no harm
He changed his clothes and shined his boots
and combed his dark hair down
And his mother cried as he walked out
Don't take your guns to town, son
leave your guns at home, Bill
don't take your guns to town

He laughed and kissed his mom and said
you're Billy Joe's a man
I can shoot as quick and straight
as anybody can
But, I wouldn't shoot without a cause
I'd gun nobody down
But she cried again as he rode away
Don't take your guns to town, son
leave your guns at home, Bill
don't take your guns to town.

He sang a song as on he rode
his guns hung at his hips
he rode into a cattle town
a smile upon his lips
He stopped and walked into a bar
and laid his money down
but his mother's words echoed again
don't take your guns to town, son
leave your guns at home, Bill
don't take your guns to town.

He drank his first strong liquor
then to calm his shaking hand
and tried to tell himself at last
he had become a man
a dusty cowpoke at his
began to laugh him down
and he heard again his mother's words
don't take your guns to town, son
leave your guns at home, Bill
don't take your guns to town.

Filled with rage then Billy Joe
reached for his gun to draw
but the stranger drew his gun and fired
before he even saw
As Billy Joe fell to the floor
the crowd all gathered round
and wondered at his final words
don't take your guns to town, son
leave your guns at home, Bill
don't take your guns to town.

Now somewhere in the black mountain hills of dakota
There lived a young boy named rocky raccoon
And one day his woman ran off with another guy
Hit young rocky in the eye, rocky didnt like that
He said Im gonna get that boy
So one day he walked into town
Booked himself a room in the local saloon

Rocky raccoon checked into his room
Only to find gideons bible
Rocky had come equipped with a gun
To shoot off the legs of his rival
His rival it seems had broken his dreams
By stealing the girl of his fancy
Her name was magil and she called herself lil
But everyone knew her as nancy

Now she and her man who called himself dan
Were in the next room at the hoe down
Rocky burst in and grinning a grin
He said danny boy this is a showdown
But daniel was hot - he drew first and shot
And rocky collapsed in the corner

Now the doctor came in stinking of gin
And proceeded to lie on the table
He said rocky you met your match
And rocky said, doc its only a scratch
And Ill be better, Ill be better doc as soon as I am able

Now rocky raccoon he fell back in his room
Only to find gideons bible
Gideon checked out and he left it no doubt
To help with good rocky’s revival

DND Now they'll leave us alone
DND Now you turn off the phone

How like you to make the whole world disappear and
How like you to make everything seem so clear and
How like you to make me want to stay forever
Here behind your door

DND Hang the sign on the door
DND Don't disturb us no more

How like you to make your love my hideaway and
How like you to make my troubles slide away and
How like you to make me want to play forever
Here behind your door

Minute I got some space and time I
Wanted to get me back in the crowd
Minute I got some peace you found me
Trying to make my way to the loud
What a clown...

DND Leave the hotel at noon
DND Will I see you soon?
How like you to make the whole world disappear and
How like you to make everything seem so clear and
How like you to make me want to stay forever
Here behind your door

DND DND
DND
Now they'll leave us alone

It’s gonna take a lotta love
To change the way things are.
It’s gonna take a lotta love
Or we won’t get too far.

So if you look in my direction
And we don’t see eye to eye,
My heart needs protection
And so do i.

It’s gonna take a lotta love
To get us thru the night.
It’s gonna take a lotta love
To make things work out right.

So if you are out there waitin’
I hope you show up soon,
’cause my heart needs relatin’
Not solitude.

Gotta lotta love
Gotta lotta love.

It’s gonna take a lotta love
To change the way things are.
It’s gonna take a lotta love
Or we won’t get too far.

It’s gonna take a lotta love
To change the way things are.
It’s gonna take a lotta love
Or we won’t get too far

Ok, dead 70's female musicians...
-----------------------------------------

Talkin to myself and feelin old
Sometimes Id like to quit
Nothing ever seems to fit
Hangin around
Nothing to do but frown
Rainy Days and Mondays always get me down.

What Ive got they used to call the blues
Nothin is really wrong
Feelin like I don't belong
Walkin around
Some kind of lonely clown
Rainy Days and Mondays always get me down.

Funny but it seems I always wind up here with you
Nice to know somebody loves me
Funny but it seems that its the only thing to do
Run and find the one who loves me.

What I feel has come and gone before
No need to talk it out
We know what its all about
Hangin around
Nothing to do but frown
Rainy Days and Mondays always get me down.

Nite falls , and im alone
Skin, yeah chilled me to the bone
You, turned and you ran,
Oh yeah,
Oh slipped, right from my hand

Hey
Blue on black
Tears on a river
Push on a shove
It dont mean much
Joker on jack
Match on a fire
Cold on ice
A dead mans touch
Wisper on a scream
Doesnt change a thing
Dont bring you back
Blue on black
Oh yeah, blue on black

Blind, oh, now I see
Truth, lies, and in between
Wrong, cant be undone
Oh slipped, from the tip of
Your tounge

Hey
Blue on black
Tears on a river
Push on a shove
It dont mean much
Joker on jack
Match on a fire
Cold on ice
A dead mans touch
Wisper on a scream
Doesnt change a thing
Doesnt bring you back, yeah
Blue on black
Oh, blue on black
Oh, yeah

(solo)

Blue on black
Tears on a river
Push on a shove

Wisper on a scream
Doesnt change a thing
Dont bring you back
Blue on black
Oh yeah, blue on black

Hey
Blue on black
Tears on a river
Push on a shove
It dont mean much
Joker on jack
Match on a fire
Cold on ice
Is a dead mans touch
Wisper on a scream
Doesnt change a thing
Doesnt bring you back
Blue on black
Oh, blue on black
Oh wha oh, blue on black
Oh, blue on black

On a warm summers evenin on a train bound for nowhere,
I met up with the gambler; we were both too tired to sleep.
So we took turns a starin out the window at the darkness
til boredom overtook us, and he began to speak.

He said, son, I’ve made a life out of readin peoples faces,
And knowin what their cards were by the way they held their eyes.
So if you don’t mind my sayin, I can see youre out of aces.
For a taste of your whiskey Ill give you some advice.

So I handed him my bottle and he drank down my last swallow.
Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light.
And the night got deathly quiet, and his face lost all expression.
Said, if you’re gonna play the game, boy, ya gotta learn to play it right.

You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em,
Know when to walk away and know when to run.
You never count your money when you’re sittin at the table.
Therell be time enough for countin when the dealins done.

Now evry gambler knows that the secret to survivin
Is knowin what to throw away and knowing what to keep.
cause evry hands a winner and evry hands a loser,
And the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep.

So when he’d finished speakin, he turned back towards the window,
Crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep.
And somewhere in the darkness the gambler, he broke even.
But in his final words I found an ace that I could keep.

You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em,
Know when to walk away and know when to run.
You never count your money when youre sittin at the table.
Therell be time enough for countin when the dealins done.

You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em,
Know when to walk away and know when to run.
You never count you r money when youre sittin at the table.
Therell be time enough for countin when the dealins done.

There isn't much to gain
By living all the same way
The years just slip away
But it's too late then to play
If you live from day to day
You can play the game your own way
There's a million things to say
In a million places
For her it stays the same
Though a million towers have tumbled
And you can hear her pain
Voiced in a distant rumble
And when it starts to rain
All your monoliths will crumble
It's always been the same
Don't you feel a little bit humble?
She came up to me, she said:
'Wanna know a mistery?
There's a whole wide world for you to see
You're just a player in the game'
Well I've nothing left to say
Except take the time to ramble
In a million different ways
There's a million paths to travel
And when there's something in the way
Take your time please remember
There's hope yet in the rain
And a voice in distant thunder

on the day i went away
good bye
was all i had to say
now i
i want to come again and stay
oh my my
smile and that will mean that i may

cause i've seen
blue skies
through the tears
in my eyes
and i realize
i'm going home

everywhere it's been the same
feeling
like i'm outside in the rain
wheeling
free to try and find a game
dealing
cards for sorrow, cards for pain

cause i've seen
blue skies
through the tears
in my eyes
and i realize
i'm going home
i'm going home
i'm going home

Leaves are falling all around,
Its time I was on my way.
Thanks to you, Im much obliged
For such a pleasant stay.

But now its time for me to go,
The autumn moon lights my way.
For now I smell the rain,
And with it pain,
And its headed my way.
Ah, sometimes I grow so tired,
But I know Ive got one thing I got to do,

Ramble on,
And nows the time, the time is now
To sing my song.
Im goin round the world,
I got to find my girl, on my way.
Ive been this way ten years to the day, ramble on,
Gotta find the queen of all my dreams.

Got no time to for spreadin roots,
The time has come to be gone.
And tho our health we drank a thousand times,
Its time to ramble on.
------------------------------
and on and on and on....yeah this song rambles on for about forever.

Where is the moment we needed the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to grey
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on

You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day

(Oh.. Holiday..)

Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong

So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day

Hear the sound of the falling rain
Coming down like an armageddon flame (Hey!)
The shame, the ones who died without a name

Hear the dogs howling out of key
To a hymn called Faith and Misery (Hey!)
And bleed, the company who lost the war today

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
On holiday

Hear the drum pounding out of time
Another protestor has crossed the line (Hey!)
To find, the moneys on the other side

Can I get another Amen (Amen!)
Theres a flag wrapped around a score of men (Hey!)
A gag, A plastic bag on a monument

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
On holiday.....
-----------------------------
hmm...maybe I shouldn't post the rest of it.

A little help from my friends
What would you think if I sang out of tune,
Would you stand up and walk out on me.
Lend me your ears and I’ll sing you a song,
And I’ll try not to sing out of key.
I get by with a little help from my friends,
I get high with a little help from my friends,
Going to try with a little help from my friends.
What do I do when my love is away.
(does it worry you to be alone)
How do I feel by the end of the day
(are you sad because you’re on your own)
No I get by with a little help from my friends,
Do you need anybody,
I need somebody to love.
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love.
Would you believe in a love at first sight,
Yes I’m certain that it happens all the time.
What do you see when you turn out the light,
I can’t tell you, but I know it’s mine.
Oh I get by with a little help from my friends,
Do you need anybody,
I just need someone to love,
Could it be anybody,
I want somebody to love.
I get by with a little help from my friends,
Yes I get by with a little help from my friends,
With a little help from my friends.

Can anybody find me somebody to love?
Each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
Take a look in the mirror and cry
Lord what youre doing to me
I have spent all my years in believing you
But I just cant get no relief,
Lord!
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?

I work hard every day of my life
I work till I ache my bones
At the end I take home my hard earned pay all on my own -
I get down on my knees
And I start to pray
Till the tears run down from my eyes
Lord - somebody - somebody
Can anybody find me - somebody to love?

(he works hard)

Everyday - I try and I try and I try -
But everybody wants to put me down
They say Im goin crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
Got no common sense
I got nobody left to believe
Yeah - yeah yeah yeah

Oh lord
Somebody - somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?

Got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat
Im ok, Im alright
Ain’t gonna face no defeat
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
Someday Im gonna be free, lord!

Find me somebody to love
Can anybody find me somebody to love?

I think this has gone on far enough, it's taking up too much space in the DB for something that's off topic, plus I really don't think posting the lyrics of the entire song was the point.
