ZUCCHERO lyrics - Suona Il Corno



Suona il corno, dai

suonalo per me

e stagione ormai

di andarmene un po' cosi.

Senza piu ali

Senza la tua luce

Come un cielo che

Stelle piu non ha.

Ero il sogno di un soldato

Ero liberta

E moriro per te

Portami via o lasciami cosi

Suona il corno dai,

Tanto fa lo stesso,

non c'e piu strada ormai

che porti fino a te.

Il buio mi assale

Mi porta via e in alto se ne va

L'anima mia che sale

Lasciami qui.

Ma da lontano

Oltre le montagne

Una voce dice ricordati chi sei

Sei un soldato che non sara mai schiavo

Non ti arrendere

Ricordati chi sei.

Yeah

Sei un guerriero

che combatte per la vita

Per la liberta.

Yeah

Per la liberta


DIANNE REEVES lyrics - Christmas Time Is Here



Christmas time is here

Happiness and cheer

Fun for all that children call

Their favorite time of the year

Snowflakes in the air

Carols everywhere

Olden times and ancient rhymes

Of love and dreams to share

Sleigh bells in the air

Beauty everywhere

Yuletide by the fireside

And joyful memories there

Christmas time is here

We'll be drawing near

Oh that we could always see

Such spirit through the year



Sleigh bells in the air

Beauty everywhere

Yuletide by the fireside

And joyful memories there

Christmas time is here

We'll be drawing near

Oh that we could always see

Such spirit through the year



Christmas time is here


ROD STEWART lyrics - My Heart Can't Tell Me No



(Simon Climie/Dennis Morgan)



I don't want you

to come round here no more

I beg you for mercy

You don't know how strong

my weakness is

Or how much it hurts me

Cause when you said it over with him

I want to believe it's true

So I let you in knowing tomorrow

I'm gonna wake up missing you

wake up missing you



When the one you love's

in love with someone else

Don't you know it's torture

I mean it's a living hell

No matter how I try to convince myself

this time I won't lose control

One look in your blue eyes

And suddenly my heart can't tell you no



I don't want you

To call me up no more

Saying you need me

You're crazy if you think

just half your love

could ever please me

Still I want to hold you, touch you

when you look at me that way

There's only one solution I know

You gotta stay away from me

Stay away from me



When the one you love's

in love with someone else

Don't you know it's torture

I mean it's a living hell

No matter how I try to convince myself

this time I won't lose control

One look in your sad eyes

And suddenly my heart can't tell you no

My Heart can't tell you no



I don't want you

to come round here no more

I beg you for mercy

You don't know how strong

my weakness is

Or how much it hurts me

Cause when you say its over with him

I want to believe it's true

So I let you in knowing tomorrow

I'm gonna wake up missing you

Wake up missing you



When the one you love's

in love with someone else

Don't you know it's torture

I mean it's a living hell, a living hell

When the one you love's

in love with someone else

Don't you know it's torture

I mean it's a living hell, a living hell


AEROSMITH lyrics - Jesus Is On The Main Line



(Mississippi Fred McDowell)



Jesus is on that mainline... tell him what you want

Jesus is on that mainline... tell him what you want

Jesus is on that mainline... tell him what you want

You gotta call him up and tell him what you want



Oh... the line ain't never busy... tell him what you want

Oh... the line ain't never busy... tell him what you want

The line ain't never busy... tell him what you want

Call him up... and tell him what you want



Now... if you're feeling down and out... tell him what you want

If you're feeling down and out... tell him what you want

If you're feeling down and out... tell him what you want

Call him up and tell him what you want



If you're sick and you want to get well... tell him what you want

If you're sick and you want to get well... tell him what you want

If you're sick and you want to get well... tell him what you want

You gotta call him up and tell him what you want



If your soul's in danger... tell him what you want

If your soul's in danger... tell him what you want

If your soul's in danger... tell him what you want

Call him up and tell him what you want



Jesus is on that mainline... tell him what you want

Jesus is on that mainline... tell him what you want

Jesus is on that mainline... tell him what you want

You gotta call him up and tell him what you want


OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN lyrics - I Love You Crazy



(Brooke McClymont, Robert Parde, Steve Werfel)



Watching the shadow dance

Reflected in your eyes

Open up and take a chance - talk to me

Don't hold everything inside

And if you want me say

Hold me now - hold me now

And it's ok to say - please hold me now



Lay your head down in my arms

Whispering my name

Go ahead and fall asleep

Dream the night away



I love you right - I love you wrong

I love you weak - I love you strong

I love you crazy everyday and all night long

I share your joy - I'll ease your pain

I'll take your sunshine and your rain

Oh my baby - I love you crazy



My hands are innocent - my arms are open wide

There's nothing to fight against

I'll help you thru the stone cold night

And if you feel afraid - reach for me - reach for me now

'Cos I can't stand the wait - reach for me now



I'll be here when you awake

Whispering your name

Here's a promise I will make

My love will never change



I love you right - I love you wrong

I love you weak - I love you strong

I love you crazy everyday and all night long

I share your joy - I'll ease your pain

I'll take your sunshine and your rain

Oh my baby



I love you crazy high and crazy low

More than you will ever know

I will love you crazy all my life

I love you right

I love wrong

I love you weak

I love you strong



I love you right - I love you wrong

I love you weak - I love you strong

I love you crazy everyday and all night long

I share your joy - I'll ease your pain

I'll take your sunshine and your rain

Oh my baby - I love you crazy


BABYFACE lyrics - Simple Days



I was born on the north side of a Midwestern town

There were nine of us living in a three bedroom house

Didn't have much money

But we made due

'Cause Momma worked all day long

And Daddy did too

Did all they could

Made sure we had clothes and food

Went to public schools and we

Followed public rules

We used second hand books, but oh

I didn't mind the books

Momma taught us early in life

Everybody's gotta struggle sometime



Bring back those simple times of yesterday

When a man was a man

And a friend was a friend

Bring back those simple times of yesterday

When you said what you meant

And you meant what you said



Had a friend named Bobby

Who always kept his word

We went through schoolyard fights

Had a thing for pretty girls

Didn't cost much money to

See the picture show

So we hopped the bus into town

That's where all the girlies used to go

Fifty cents would buy us popcorn for two

'Cause Bobby's girl, she worked there

And sometimes she'd break the rules

Picnics in the summer

Wouldn't wake up 'till noon

And even though Bobby's gone now

I can still hear him laugh

In the middle of June



[HOOK]



Sometimes I sit, I wonder

I reminisce, I think of all the good times

That we had in our lives

Sometimes I can't get over

How wonderful those days were

Back in our lives

Simple days for simple times



[HOOK]


WEIRD AL YANKOVIC lyrics - Here's Johnny



There he goes, he drives me crazy

When he says "Here's Johnny"

That's his job, it's so amazing

All he says is "Here's Johnny"



I never miss a moment when he's on the tube

His being there has made my life worth living

The chills run down my spine

Each time he says that line



"Here's Johnny" He says, and laughs in his special way

"Johnny" he says, you know I love him

"Here's Johnny" he says and second fiddle is his game

Ed McMahon's his name, all right

Woah, oh yeah



Dressed so fine, he's such a cool dude

Hear him say "Here's Johnny"

Watch him selling beer and dog food

Hear him say "Here's Johnny"



I got a letter from him just the other day

He said "You may already be a winner"

A trooper to the end

A Clydesdale's best friend



"Here's Johnny" he says and laughs in his special way

"Johnny" he says, you know I love him

"Here's Johnny" he says and that's the way he gets his pay

What a living



Oh "Here's Johnny, Here's Johnny" Woah no

"Here's Johnny, Here's Johnny" No no, no no no no I don't believe it

"Here's Johnny" he says and everytime it's just the same

Ed McMahon's his name



(Special guy) A very special guy, all right

(He's on) He's on every night

(Every night) Can't change the channel

When he's sitting on the panel



"Here's Johnny"

There he goes, he gives me goose bumps

When he says "Hey-Oh, Hey-Hey-Oh"



"Here's Johnny" he says and laughs in his special way

"Johnny" he says, you know I love him

"Here's Johnny" he says, that seems to be his claim to fame

Ed McMahon's his name



"Here's Johnny"

"Here's Johnny"

"Here's Johnny" (laughing)



"Here's Johnny"

"Here's Johnny" (laughing)

"Here's Johnny" (laughing)



"Here's Johnny" (laughing)

"Here's Johnny"

"Here's Johnny" (laughing)



"Here's"

"Here's Johnny"


THE TEMPTATIONS lyrics - Smiling Faces Sometimes



Smiling faces sometimes pretend to be your friend

Smiling faces show no traces of the evil that lurks within

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes

They don't tell the truth uh

Smiling faces, smiling faces

Tell lies and I got proof

The truth is in the eyes

Cause the eyes don't lie, amen



Remember a smile is just

A frown turned upside down

My friend let me tell you

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes

They don't tell the truth, uh

Smiling faces, smiling faces

Tell lies and I got proof



Beware, beware of the handshake

That hides the snake

I'm telling you beware

Beware of the pat on the back

It just might hold you back

Jealousy (jealousy)

Misery (misery)

Envy I tell you, you can't see behind smiling faces

Smiling faces sometimes they don't tell the truth

Smiling faces, smiling faces

Tell lies and I got proof

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes

They don't tell the truth

Smiling faces, smiling faces

Tell lies and I got proof

(Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes)

(Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes)



I'm telling you beware, beware of the handshake

That hides the snake

Listen to me now, beware

Beware of that pat on the back

It just might hold you back

Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes

They don't tell the truth

Smiling faces, smiling faces

Tell lies and I got proof

Your enemy won't do you no harm

Cause you'll know where he's coming from

Don't let the handshake and the smile fool ya

Take my advice I'm only try' to school ya

CARL WILSON lyrics - They're Only Words



(Carl Wilson/Phil Galdston)



The promises I made When I was young, unafraid

I hurt so many hearts

And even my own could not escape

It comes to me now



I've seen (oh yeah), I've heard (I've heard)

And now I've finally learned

They're only words

They're only words

I've learned

I've pledged

I've burned

I've burned

And now the world has turned

They're only words

They're only words

Unless they're true



And when I took your hand

I thought we found wonderland

I wanted to be brave, oh I changed the world

But it's me who changed

It comes to me now



I've seen (oh yeah), I've heard (I've heard)

And now I've finally learned

They're only words

They're only words

I've learned

I've pledged

I've burned

I've burned

And now the world has turned

They're only words

They're only words

Unless they're true



They're only words (they're only words)

Unless they're true (unless they're true)

All these words



Show me once again

That lonely ends where love begins

You don't have to speak

Cos' its your eyes that I believe

I do believe



I've seen, I've heard (I've heard)

And now I've finally learned

They're only words

They're only words

I've learned

I've pledged

I've burned

And now

And now the world has turned

World has turned

They're only words

I've seen (oh yeah), I've heard (I've heard)

And now I've finally learned (I've learned)

They're only words

Unless they're true


DIANNE REEVES lyrics - A Child Is Born



Now out of the night

New as the dawn into the light

Oh this child, innocent child,

Soft as a fawn

This child is born

One small heart

One pair of eyes

One work of art

Here in my arms

Here he lies

Trusting and warm

Blessed this bond

A child is born



Now out of the night

New as the dawn into the light

Oh this child, innocent child,

Soft as a fawn

This child is born

One small heart

One pair of eyes

One work of art

Here in my arms

Here he lies

Trusting and warm

Blessed this bond

A child is born

It's a long way, such a long way


COWBOY JUNKIES lyrics - Crossroads



I went to the crossroads

Fell down on my knee

I asked the Lord above me for mercy

"Save Bob, if you please"



Standing, standing on the crossroad

Yeah, I try to flag a ride

Don't nobody seem to know me

Just everybody passing me by



I went down to the crossroads

Fell down on my knee

I asked the Lord above me for mercy

"Save Bob, if you please"



Standing, standing on the crossroad

I try to flag a ride

Don't nobody seem to know me

Just everybody passing me by



I'm standing on the crossroad, baby

Yeah, I think I'm sinking down

Sinking, sinking down

TOMMY BOLIN lyrics - Wild Dogs (Early Demo)



(Tommy Bolin & John Tesar)



Baggage Handcuffed to my Wrist,

I drag it everywhere I Go

Sometimes I fight it with My Fists,

If I knew which Way Was Home

That's Where I'd Go,

If I knew Which Way Was Home



Porter Come and Cut Me Loose,

Bring me Whiskey and My Water

Sometimes I get the Blues,

But I know I shouldn't oughta

That's Where I'd Go,

If I knew which Way Was Home



Run Down Ghost Trail, No

Chance For Love, No Sign Of

Life

- Just Wild Dogs - Howlin'

In the Night



Hey Porter Come and Cut Me Free,

I'm sick of My Own Company

Sometimes I miss the Gold,

Most Times I miss my Home

That's Where I'd Go,

If I Knew Which Way Was Home



Run Down Ghost Trail, No Chance For Love, No Sign Of Life

- Just Wild Dogs - Howlin' in the Night

(That's what I like...)



Hear 'em Howl!


FRANK ZAPPA lyrics - The Poodle Lecture



In the beginning GOD made 'the light.' Shortly thereafter GOD made the poodle-as you can see by this model that we have in front of us. When GOD made the poodle initially it was a very handsome sort of a dog-it had HAIR, HAIR, HAIR, evenly distributed all over its charming canine poodle-shape body.



Shortly after the construction of the poodle itself, GOD made TWO big mistakes. The first one was called MAN, and the second one was called WO-MAN. WO-MAN looketh upon the poodle and saith unto herself, "This poodle, with hair evenly distributed all over its body, is of no use to me for it is not SLICK, it is not STREAMLINE, it is not FASHIONABLE, and in many instances it is REPULSIVE because of the brown things attached to the hair on the rear part of the dog, and I must have this dog modified," so he turneth onto MAN, and saith unto MAN, "SUCKER, GO GET A JOB!" And MAN, being the chump that he was, wenteth out and wenteth forth and lefteth the cave, and went into the world itself and gotteth a job.



Whereupon he returneth to the cave with his MONEY, and the WO-MAN looketh upon the money and said, "SUCKER! Take this money and go buy me a pair of scissors, whereby I may clippeth upon this poodle and modify it to my own personal taste and secret moist innermost DESIRES." And the MAN, being the chump that he was, went out and bought her the poodle clipping shears and broughth 'em back to the WO-MAN and handeth the shears to the WO-MAN, whereupon she GRABBETH the poodle thusly. . . and with a DEFT, SWIFT, DENSE ECUMENICAL PATINA (Talk about it!) of STROKE (Talk about it!), she clippeth upon the poodle, near the FETLOCK, all across the THORAX, in the MEDULA, and. . . right near the cappuciano o'er here, and streamlined that sucker until it looked just like this, with little feet sticking out and a little ball on the end, making the dags very easy to remove, and she putteth the poodle in a quasi erotic sort of a position, near where she was sprawled out on the cave. . . stucketh her leggeths up unto the air, "Buf," like this, exposing to the poodle the central core of her desire, and looked deep into the poodle's eyes and said these piquant little words that we shall not soon forget:


BLUE OYSTER CULT lyrics - Good To Feel Hungry



(John Shirley, Danny Miranda, Eric Bloom, and Donald Roeser)



It's good to feel hungry when you're about to eat well

It's good to be angry when you're ready to yell

It's good to be angry



It's good to feel certain even when you're not right

Sweep back the curtain and let in some light

If there is any light



She calls me, she summons me with a purr

And no amount of cryin' will set me free from her

And only deep feeling, finding my way into feeling

Only just being, will free me from her



Sometimes I flirt with despair, as if she were a lady

A pale and black-haired lady

A cool and bloodless lady, yeah



Good to feel, good to feel it's good to feel damn good to feel

Good to feel, it's good to feel, it's good to feel damn good to feel

It's good to feel, it's good to feel, it's good to feel damn good to feel

It's good to feel, it's good to feel, it's good to feel damn good to feel

Damn good to feel

Damn good to feel

Damn good to feel


ELOY lyrics - Sensations



A latent haze surrounding me

is spreading out sensations.

Silent faces stare with stale eyes

mechanized and sad, so sterilized.

Let the rays of the gentle sun reach me

penetrating deep, melting all taboos

and my soul cries out: free me!



Bring me to the light

Understand my plight

Dissipate my fear

Take me out of here



Nature's womb is still, her furtive love

evades me still no chance to reach

Loneliness prevails, a vacuum forms

isolation steers a barren mind

In this atmosphere movements petrify

From my deepest self

uncontrolled and wild

and driving force compels my cry:



Bring me to the light

Understand my plight

Dissipate my fear

Take me out of here



New dimensions in sight

bring sensations to life

and unveils what's been in secrecy

Solitary am I

but at least I am me!



Bring me to the light

Understand my plight

Dissipate my fear

Take me out of here



(repeat)

HELLOWEEN lyrics - Mr. Torture



Welcome to the torture chamber

Said the sign above the entrance

Laughing as he taked you by the hand

Looking like a maniac savage

Inside you can sense the anguish

Theatre of pain has just begun



Mr. Torture gives pain

With his whips and his chains

He knows just what you crave

Mr. Torture

If you're feeling alone

Then just pick up your phone

Dial 18 double 0

Mr. Torture

Mr. Torture sells pain



Only sixty cents a minute

For his special brand of sinning

Phone guaranteed to blow your mind

You can catch him on the website

Has a live chat every weeknight

Cyber-torture soon coming your way



Mr. Torture sells pain

To the housewives in Spain

He knows just what they crave

Mr. Torture

If you're feeling alone

Then just pick up your phone

Dial 18 double 0

Mr. Torture

Mr. Torture sells pain



Handcuffed, bound, chained, and blinded

Body, soul, and mind ignited

Every sense is torn and ripped apart

He's been banned in twenty countries

Though he does it for money

He gets pleasure from hearing you scream



Mr. Torture gives pain

With his whips and his chains

He knows just what you crave

Mr. Torture

If you're feeling alone

Then just pick up your phone

Dial 18 double 0

Mr. Torture

Mr. Torture

Mr. Torture sells pain


ABBA lyrics - The Winner Takes It All



I don't wanna talk

about the things we've gone through

though it's hurting me

now it's history

I've played all my cards

and that's what you've done too

nothing more to say

no more ace to play



The winner takes it all

the loser standing small

beside the victory

that's her destiny



I was in your arms

thinking I belonged there

I figured it made sense

building me a fence

building me a home

thinking I'd be strong there

but I was a fool

playing by the rules



The gods may throw a dice

their minds as cold as ice

and someone way down here

loses someone dear

the winner takes it all

the loser has to fall

it's simple and it's plain

why should I complain



But tell me does she kiss

like I used to kiss you

does it feel the same

when she calls your name

somewhere deep inside

you must know I miss you

but what can I say

rules must be obeyed



The judges will decide

the likes of me abide

spectators of the show

always staying low

the game is on again

a lover or a friend

a big thing or a small

the winner takes it all



I don't wanna talk

if it makes you feel sad

and I understand

you've come to shake my hand

I apologize

if it makes you feel bad

seeing me so tense

no self-confidence



But you see

the winner takes it all

REBA MCENTIRE lyrics - Don't You Believe Him



(N. Stuckey)



He can give you a reason to live if he wants to

He can make you forget other loves that you had known

He has two lips and two arms that thrill you as very few do

And if you want him to give them to you just ask and he will



Don't you believe him

I did and soon he'll be leaving me

No don't believe him if you do

Then soon he'll be leaving you too



He can tell you a lie you believe if he has to

And you'll trust me till time and the tide both stand still

He can cry on your shoulder and swear to the things that he won't do

But be careful for when you're not looking he will



Don't you believe him

I did and soon he'll be leaving me

No don't believe him if you do

Then soon he'll be leaving you too

JOE COCKER lyrics - Catfish



(Dylan/Levy)



Lazy stadium night

Catfish on the mound.

"Strike three," the umpire said,

Batter have to go back and sit down.



Catfish, million-dollar-man,

Nobody can throw the ball like Catfish can.



Used to work on Mr. Finley's farm

But the old man wouldn't pay

So he packed his glove and took his arm

An' one day he just ran away.



Catfish, million-dollar-man,

Nobody can throw the ball like Catfish can.



Come up where the Yankees are,

Dress up in a pinstripe suit,

Smoke a custom-made cigar,

Wear an alligator boot.



Catfish, million-dollar-man,

Nobody can throw the ball like Catfish can.



Carolina born and bred,

Love to hunt the little quail.

Got a hundred-acre spread,

Got some huntin' dogs for sale.



Catfish, million-dollar-man,

Nobody can throw the ball like Catfish can.



Reggie Jackson at the plate

Seein' nothin' but the curve,

Swing too early or too late

Got to eat what Catfish serve.



Catfish, million-dollar-man,

Nobody can throw the ball like Catfish can.



Even Billy Martin grins

When the Fish is in the game.

Every season twenty wins

Gonna make the Hall of Fame.



Catfish, million-dollar-man,

Nobody can throw the ball like Catfish can.


CROSBY, STILLS, NASH & YOUNG lyrics - On The Way Home



When the dream came

I held my breath

With my eyes closed

I went insane,

Like a smoke ring day

When the wind blows

Now I won't be back

Till later on

If I do come back at all

But you know me,

And I miss you now.



In a strange game

I saw myself as you knew me

When the change came,

And you had a

Chance to see through me

Though the other side

Is just the same

You can tell

My dream is real

Because I love you,

Can you see me now.



Though we rush ahead

To save our time

We are only what we feel

And I love you,

Can you feel it now.


THE CURE lyrics - Bird Mad Girl



This girl has got a smile

That can make me cry

This girl just burns with love

She's burning burning deep outside



Night time night time

Sets my house on fire

I'll turn into the melting man

I'll lose my life

To feel I feel desire



Oh I should feel

Like a polar bear...

It's impossible



She flies outside this cage

Singing girlmad words

I keep her dark thoughts deep inside

As black as stone

And mad as birds



Wild wild wild

And never turn away

Sends me all her love

She sends me everything

She sends me everywhere



Oh I could be

A polar bear...

It's impossible



I try to talk

The sky goes red

I forget

So fill my head

With some of this

Some of that

Some of every word she said



Oh I should be

A polar bear...

But it's impossible


B. B. KING lyrics - Makin' Love Is Good For You



(Tony Joe White)



Makin' love is good for you

Makin' love is good for you

Makin' love is good for you

Makin' love is good for you

So take care of your body

Make a little love today



Ain't nobody can live forever

It's just something that we all understand

But while you're young, y'all

We can make it better

If we take care of our bodies while we can



'Cause makin' love is good for you

Makin' love is good for you

So take care of your body

Make a little love today



Man and woman get together

Play the game and swear they're havin' fun

But if we make a little love

From the very start

What a lovely way to getto know someone



So makin' love is good for you

Makin' love is good for you

So take care of your body

Make a little love today



Let the wise man think about it

I'll just put my thinkin' all on the shelf

But if the good Lord made something

Better than love

I swear he must've kept it there for myself



Hey, makin' love is good for you

Makin' love is good for you

So take care of your body

Make a little love today

RANDY NEWMAN lyrics - You Can Leave Your Hat On



Baby, take off your coat...(real slow)

Baby, take off your shoes...(here, I'll take your shoes)

Baby, take off your dress

Yes, yes, yes

You can leave your hat on

You can leave your hat on

You can leave your hat on



Go on over there and turn on the light...no, all the lights

Now come back here and stand on this chair...that's right

Raise your arms up in to the air...shake 'em

You give me a reason to live

You give me a reason to live

You give me a reason to live

You give me a reason to live



Suspicious minds are talking

Trying to tear us apart

They say that my love is wrong

They don't know what love is

They don't know what love is

They don't know what love is

They don't know what love is

I know what love is

CHARLOTTE GAINSBOURG lyrics - Elastique



Elastique

Gimmicks

Je te replique

Du tac tac au tic



Quand certains jours pour moi ca rigole pas des masses

Devant ma glace

Je me fais des grimaces



Elastique

Des gimmicks

Un peu comme Mick

Jagger que je trouve comique



Elastique

Gimmicks

Informatique

Sur l'amour file-moi ta doc



J'suis elastique

Dans mes gimmicks

Maths et chimique

Pas louper mon bac



Quand certains jours pour moi ca rigole pas des masses

Devant ma glace

Je me fais des grimaces



Elastique

Des gimmicks

Oui j'ai des ticks

Et c'est pas du toc



Elastique

Gimmicks

J'aime la musique

Le funky le roll and rock



J'suis elastique

Dans mes gimmicks

Mais helas tic

Je vois tout en toc



Elastique

Gimmicks

J'aime les comic

Strip aussi les clips



Quand certains jours pour moi ca rigole pas des masses

Devant la glace

Je me fais des grimaces



Elastique

Des gimmicks

J'ai trop de tact

Je manque de tactique



Elastique

Gimmicks

T'es qu'un pauv'mec

T'es malade t'faudrait un doc



Quand certains jours pour moi ca rigole pas des masses

Devant ma glace

Je me fais des grimaces

Un peu comme Mick

Jagger que je trouve comique



Elastique

Gimmicks

T'es qu'un pauv'mec

T'es malade t'faudrait un doc


GEORGE MICHAEL lyrics - Cowboys And Angels



(George Michael)



When your heart's in someone else's hands

Monkey see and monkey do

Their wish is your command

You're not to blame

Everyone's the same



All you do is love and love is all you do

I should know by now the way i fought for you

You're not to blame

Everyone's the same



I know you think that you're safe

Mister

Harmless deception

That keeps love at bay

It's the ones who resist that we most want to kiss

Wouldn't you say?



Cowboys and angels

They all have the time for you

Why should i imagine that i'd be a find for you

Why should i imagine

That i'd have something to say



But that scar on your face

That beautiful face of yours

In your heart there's a trace

Of someone before



When your heart's in someone else's plans

Things you say and things you do

They don't understand

It's such a shame

Always ends the same



You can call it love but i don't think it's true

You should know by now

I'm not the boy for you

You're not to blame

Always ends the same



I know you think that you're safe

Sister

Harmless affection

That keeps things this way

It's the ones who persist for the sake of a kiss

Who will pay

Cowboys and angels

They all take a shine to you

Why should i imagine that i was designed for you

Why should i believe

That you would stay

HAWKWIND lyrics - Angels Of Death



(Brock)



We're angels of life, we're angels of death,

We're born to blaze a nuclear way through space,

A way out of the waste that held the human race,

We're angels of life, we're angels of death.



We are the dead who are never led,

we are the warriors at the edge of time,

we lurk inside your brain we hide inside your mind,

We're angels of life, we're angels of death.



We stalk the city streets to kill all we meet,

nostrils flare awhile, it makes you want to smile


SANTANA lyrics - Stay (Beside Me)



Stay

Beside me

Don't go away

Cause if you leave me I will lose my inspiration

I don't wanna be another victim of frustration



Stay

Please guide me

I need your love

That I may see

Below, above, and all around is all confusion

You're the only one that breaks the spell of all illusion



Take me

I belong to only you

Your love

Coming down like a gentle rain

To soothe my pain

Gently

Oh, won't you stay



Below, above, and all around is all confusion

You're the only one that breaks the spell of all illusion

Take me

I belong to only you

Your love

Coming down like a gentle rain

To soothe my pain

Gently

Oh, won't you stay

RAINBOW lyrics - Starstruck



If I'm high on the hill

She'd still been looking down at me

What does she see that brings her closer every day to my heart

If I'm away from home

And think I'm all alone

She's there, somewhere

I look around and see

And looking back at me

She's there, beware!



Creeping like a hungry cat

I've seen her before

I know it can mean that



The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck

The lady starstruck, running after me

The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck, yeah



I could fly to the moon

But she soon find me and wait me there

I never knew for a while as smile made me really care



She wants a souvenir

To everyone it's clear

She's hot, hot - hot, hot, one look

She want a photograph

But everybody laughs but not me 'cause I see



She's creeping like a hungry cat

I've seen her before

I know I can mean that



The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck

The lady starstruck, running after me

The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck, oh oh o-o-oh

Oh my

The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck

The lady starstruck, running after me, yeah

The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck, yeah



It used to be a game

Now I can't repeat my name at all

She seems to believe that

I never can refuse a call



She wants a souvenir

To everyone it's clear

She's hot; one look

She want a photograph

And everybody laughs, hah!

But not me 'cause I see



She's creeping like a hungry cat

I've seen her before

I know it can mean that



The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck

The lady starstruck, running after me

The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck, bad luck

The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck



The lady starstruck running after me

The lady starstruck, she's nothing but bad luck

Bad luck, bad luck, bad luck

And back in the tree looking back at me

Climbing up my stair

I've just got to beware

Lady starstruck, yes, she's bad luck, bad luck


RAY STEVENS lyrics - Safe At Home



Remember back when working hard

That baseball games and grandma jar

Appetites grew strong in the Georgia sun



'Bout the time you could smell the meal

With clean hand in center field

Someone would holler at, "Dinners on"



And no matter who the battle won

We'd stop and drop our baseball gloves

Head for the water pump to wash our hands



All stars bowed their heads in grace

Each one with its own home plate

Filled with the fruits of their labor from our land



And we were family

Family with resemblances too strong for us to see

We're family, ageless family

And safe at home is all we longed to be



I can still see little brother's face

As he slit wide eyed in the second base

And countless times I've wished we could return



It's in that moment seems so clear

Just who we are, why we're here

And I pray that someday soon the world will learn



We're family

Big family with resemblances too strong for us to see

We're family, ageless family

And safe at home is all we longed to be


DAVID BOWIE lyrics - Nathan Adler



Old Touchschriek was

the main nameserver

Suspected of being a shoulder surfer

But he didn't know from shit

About challenge response systems

Now Ramona A Stone we know was selling

interest drugs

She got males all hung up

on her mind filters

She was if you don't mind me saying so an update demon

Now Leon

He couldn't wait for 12 o'clock midnight

He jumps up on the stage

With a criss criss machete

And slashes around cutting a zero on everything

I mean a zero

in the fabric of time itself

Was this a suspect?

I says to myself

Woa! "Quelle courage!"

Oh wait, I'm getting ahead of myself

Let me take you back to

when it all began


SARAH MCLACHLAN lyrics - Pills



(Ola Kluft/Mans Lundberg)



I hope my smile can distract you

I hope my fists can fight for two

So it never has to show

And you'll never know



I hope my love can blind you

I hope my arms can bind you

So you'll never have to see

What we've grown to be



One may think we're alright

But we need pills to sleep at night

We need lies to make it through the day

We're not okay



One may think we're alright

But we need pills to sleep at night

We need lies to make it through the day

We're not okay



One may think we're doing fine

But if I had to lay it on the line

We're losing ground with every passing day

We're not okay



But that's one thing I would never

One thing I would never

One thing I would never say to you

That's one thing I would never

One thing I would never

That's one thing I would never say to you

DONNA SUMMER lyrics - Be Myself Again



Let me introduce myself

I'm a woman that you've never seen

You might know me from somewhere else

As someone that I've never been



I gave everything to play the game

My soul fell apart at the seems

I fell down like a house of cards

When somebody pulled the Queen



'Cause you could spend your life

Looking for your own reflection

Time can blur the lines

Between what's real and what's projected



Had I known what I lost,

What I'd gained

What it cost

I'd still give what remains

To be myself again



You must believe me when I say

Don't live someone else's desire

Turn it around like a photograph

The writing's been there all the time



Now you can have all these hopes and dreams

The ones I can't use anymore

I don't know what it is you lost

But I hope you got what you came for



'Cause you could spend your life

Looking for your own reflection

Time can blur the lines

Between what's real and what's projected



Had I known what I lost,

What I'd gained

What it cost

I'd still give what remains

To be myself again



Sometimes I wanna leave right now

Sometimes I wanna cry out loud

I wanna let it all hang out

But I don't wanna let you down



Sometimes I wanna just lay here

Sometimes I wanna disappear

I wanna show you all my fear

But I don't wanna let you down



'Cause you could spend your life

Looking for your own reflection

Time can blur the lines

Between what's real and what's projected



Had I known what I lost,

What I'd gained

What it cost

I'd still give what remains

To be myself again

To be myself again...


SANTANA lyrics - Try A Little Harder



(Leon Patillo)



Chorus:

Try a little harder now

Try a little harder now

Try a little harder now

Try a little harder now



No one ever said it would be easy

Doin' whatever you do

You just might have to suffer

But keep on movin' right through

You've got to



Chorus



Sometimes you have to change your tune

To get where you want to be

But don't you let that satisfy you

You can have all you see



Chorus


THE SUPREMES lyrics - Without A Song



(Billy Rose/Edward Eliscu/Vincent Youmans)



Without a song

The day would never end

Without a song

The road would never have been

When things go wrong

A man ain't got a friend

Without a song



That field of corn

Would never ever see a plow

That field of corn

Would be deserted now

A man is born

But he's no good no how

Without a song



I've got my trouble and woe

But sure as I know

The Jordan will roll

I'll get along

As long as a song

Is strung in my soul



I'll never know

What makes the rain to fall

I'll never know

What makes the grass so tall

I only know

There ain't no love at all

Without a song

THE 5TH DIMENSION lyrics - Last Night I Didn't Get To Sleep At All



(Tony Macaulay)



Last night I didn't get to sleep at all, no, no

I lay awake and watched until the mornin' light

Washed away the darkness of the lonely night (lonely night)



Oh, and last night I got to thinkin' maybe I, I, I

Should call you up and just forget my foolish pride

I heard your number ringin', I went cold inside

And last night I didn't get to sleep at all



I know it's not my fault, I did my best

God knows this heart of mine could use a rest

But more and more I find the dreams I left behind

Are somehow too real to replace (to replace)



Oh, last night I didn't get to sleep at all, no, no

The sleepin' pill I took was just a waste of time

I couldn't close my eyes 'cause you were on my mind

And last night I didn't get to sleep, didn't get to sleep

No, I didn't get to sleep at all at all



[Instrumental Interlude]



But more and more I find the dreams I left behind

Are somehow too real to replace (to replace)



Oh-uh-oh last night I didn't get to sleep at all no, no

The sleepin' pill I took was just a waste of time

I couldn't close my eyes 'cause you were on my mind

And last night I didn't get to sleep, didn't get to sleep

No, I didn't get to sleep at all at all



No, no, no

No, no, no



Last night I didn't get to sleep at all, no, no

Last night I didn't get to sleep at all

(oh, oh)


THE TEMPTATIONS lyrics - I Need Your Lovin'



Da-da-da-daa-da-da-hoo

Da-da-da-daa-da-da-da-hoo-hoo



You say you gonna leave me, for the arms of another.

You say my love for you is no good and we can't go any further.

But have pity on me.

I was blind but know I see.

Stay with me and never walk out of my life.



Because...

Ooo, I need your lovin'. (I need your lovin')

Oh, ooo, I need your lovin'. (I need your lovin', baby)



Inspite of all the wrong I've done, I'll make it up to ya.

Even if it takes all my life, I'll prove my love to ya.

So please don't go away.

With me always stay, 'cause I love you.

And I couldn't stand it being away, girl.



Ooo, I need your lovin'. (I need your lovin')

Oh, ooo, I need your lovin'. (I need your lovin', baby)



Girl, restore the faith you had in me.

I'm beggin' you down on my knees.

Please don't take your love from me.

Don't leave me, don't leave.



Forgive this fool, for causing your heart to suffer.

Remember two wrongs don't make a right, it'll only make things tougher.

So have little sympathy, on a poor fool like me.

And stay with me, please don't walk out of my life.



Because...

Ooo, I need your lovin'. (I need your lovin')

Oh, ooo, I need your lovin'. (I need your lovin', baby)



Oh baby, baby, baby. (I need your lovin')

Oh, woo, I need your lovin'. (I need your lovin', baby)

Oh-oh-oh (I need your lovin')

I need your lovin' baby, baby, baby. (I need your lovin', baby)

Oh, woo, I need your lovin'. (I need your lovin')

I need it, I need it.

L. L. COOL J lyrics - Life As



[The Street Fighter Soundtrack]



Aaah, get the burner, uhh, the burner, let loose the cannon

Blood drippin, slippin off my planet

Man, the panic, funkmode

Mechanical mix flows competition in my dojo

Swing a hook, got the vertabrae, be brave

Heat gain meltin on my heatwave

Power to the crowd, pandemonium

Showin em how I gets down



[Chorus:]



The life of a killer is scandalous

The life of a killer is dangerous

[repeat]



Triggedy, sky high like a kite

God diggity, every other cloud's blue

Puff on a, yeah, puff on a

Bring it on, off, on, baby one-two

Peep in the arena, death at your doorstep

Right around the corner is the land of regret

When ya sweat to get down, sweat to get off and on

till the... nothin normal bout my songs



[Chorus x2]



LL Cool, J jazzy jewel

Takin dime pieces to the real school

I got em on nations buckin like fools

Pitbulls fightin over streets I rule

Catch it if you can when it's hot ta hit'cha hand

Throw ya skunks in the air, my funk got the flair, man

I can do division, baby I can do math

Multiplying fractions now ya know the half

Knuckle games played, must pack steel

Oh yes I'm livin like real

to the highest extent, bloody clothes doin battle

til the death of my foes, it's my show



[Chorus x2]


HEART lyrics - Sand



I asked a distant star

I wonder where you are

The shadow at my door

A friend who is no more

I watched him go to the wind

I close my eyes

Goodbye, goodbye my friend



Friends and family

The branches of the tree

Sheltered in the rain

Telling me again

No matter how raindrops run

World will ture

Turn back to the sun

Yeah, yeah



A trick of light upon our eyes

A trick of time upon our lives

Ancient songs cry out to you

Surely this sweet sand is slipping through



I watched him go to the wind

I close my eyes

Goodbye, goodbye my friend yeah



A trick of light upon our eyes

A trick of time upon our lives

Ancient songs cry out to you

And surely this sweet sand is slipping through

Slipping through the glass of time

Surely this sweet sand will run on by and by

And while the days come down to you

You are just a traveler passing through, yeah

Yeah


LYNYRD SKYNYRD lyrics - Talked Myself Right Into It



(Johnny Van Zant - Robert White Johnson - Donnie Van Zant - Pat Buchanan)



Alarm clock rings about a quarter after five

I've been up all night

Raisin' hell with some friends of mine

I take one good look in the mirror

But only one things gettin' clearer

The way I live, I'm lucky to be alive



There I go lying to myself

Said I wasn't gonna do it

Next thing you know, here I go again

Talked myself right into it



Supposed to be to work an hour ago

When I pass that boss stormin' down the road

Now there's an angel on my shoulder

thinnkin' she can win me over

Devil's got my number don't you know



There I go lying to myself

Said I wasn't gonna do it

Next thing you know, here I go again

Talked myself right into it



Maybe, maybe have I gone to far this time

Maybe, maybe is my conscience workin' overtime

Nah



There's a knockout Georgia Peach givin' me the eye

Well if the truth beknown I'm just a little shy

Turns out she wasn't alone

She had a six foot chaperone

But that didn't slow me down

Don't ask me why



There I go lying to myself

Said I wasn't gonna do it

Next thing you know, here I go again

Talked myself right into it



I got no one to blame except myself

I said I wasn't gonna do it

Next thing you know here I go

Talk myself right into it

Talk myself, talk myself right into it

Talk myself, talk myself, talk myself right into it

Said I wasn't gonna do it

Here I go again baby


FREE lyrics - Don't Say You Love Me



(Fraser / Rodgers)



You say you needed someone

But you just needed somewhere to stay

Oh any other time

Any other time

I'd have told you to be right on your way

You say you needed a friend

But you just needed sympathy

Oh any other time

Any other time

I'd have told you just to let me be

But I was so alone

So alone.



Don't say you love me baby

Don't say you love me

Don't say you love me

'cause I know it would be just a lie.



I lost the warmth in my life

And you came and helped me up

When I was down

Oh any other time

Any other time

I'd have let you carry on

Fooling around

I let you into my home

And I even let you into my heart

Oh but any other time

Any other time

I'd have let you carry on

From the very start

But I was so sad and blue

And I just didn't know what to do



Don't say you love me baby

Don't say you love me

Don't say you love me

'cause I know it would be just a lie.



Time

Has told me what I need to know

Time

Has showed me now what love is for

Time

Keeps telling me that I have got to go

Yeah I needed someone

But that time's gone

Now baby I'm gonna try and do it

All on my own.



So don't say you love me

Don't say you love me

Don't say you love me

'cause I know it would be just a lie.



Don't say you love me baby

Don't say you love me

Oh don't say that you love me

'cause I know it would be just a lie

I don't want you to tell me that you love me

Because I know, because I know

Yeah I know, yes I know

I know that it would be just a lie


PAUL SIMON lyrics - Congratulations



(Paul Simon)



Congratulations

Oh, seems like you've done It again

And I ain't had such misery

Since I don't know when

Oh, and I don't know when, oh, and I don't know when



I notice so many people

Slipping away

And many more waiting in the lines

In the courtrooms today

In the courtrooms today



Love is not a game

Love Is not a toy

Love's no romance

Love will do you in

And love will wash you out

And needless to say

You won't stand a chance, you won't stand a chance

I'm hungry for learning



Won't you answer me please

Can a man a woman

Live together in peace

Oh, live together in peace

TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS lyrics - Joe



My name's Joe, I'm the CEO

Yeah I'm the man makes the big wheels roll

I'm the hand on the green-light switch

You get to be famous, I get to be rich



Go get me a kid with a good lookin' face

Bring me a kid can remember his place

Some hungry poet son-of-a-bitch

He gets to be famous, I get to be rich



Or bring me a girl

They're always the best

You put 'em on stage and you have 'em undress

Some angel whore who can learn a guitar lick

Hey! Now that's what I call music!



Well they'll come lookin' for money when the public gets bored

But we'll fight 'em with lawyers they could never afford

Yeah I'll make her look like a spoiled little bitch

She gets to be famous, I get to be rich



Or bring me a girl

They're always the best

You put 'em on stage and you have 'em undress

Some angel whore who can learn a guitar lick

Hey! Now that's what I call music!



So burned out Johnny thinks the books are shifty

What good's that alchy to me when he's fifty?

Well we could move catalog if he'd only die quicker

Send my regards to the gig and a case of good liquor



He gets to be famous, I get to be rich

He gets to be famous, I get to be rich



My name's Joe, I'm the CEO

I'm the man makes the big wheels role


TERRI GIBBS lyrics - Somebody's Knockin'



(Penney and Jerry Gillespie)



Somebody's knockin'

Should I let him in

Lord it's the devil

Would you look at him

I've heard about him

But I never dreamed

He'd have blue eyes and blue jeans



Well somebody's talkin'

He's whispering to me

Your place or my place

Well, which will it be

I'm gittin' weaker

And he's comin' on strong

But I don't wanna go wrong



He must have tapped my telephone line

He must have known

I'm spendin' my time

Alone

He says we'll have one heavenly night

My fever's burnin'

So he ought be right at home



Somebody's knockin'

Should I let him in

Lord, it's the devil

Would you look at him

I've heard about him

But I never dreamed

He'd have blue eyes and blue jeans



He must have tapped my telephone line

He must have known

I'm spendin' my time

Alone

He says we'll have one heavenly night

My fever's burnin'

So he ought be right at home



(Somebody's knockin')

Somebody's knockin'

Oh, somebody's knockin'


R. E.M. lyrics - Houston



If the storm doesn't kill me the government will

I've got to get that out of my head

It's a new day today and the coffee is strong

I've finally got some rest



So a man's put to task and challenges

I was taught to hold my head high

Collect what is mine,

Make the best of what today has



Houston is filled with promise

Laredo is a beautiful place

Galveston sings like that song that I loved

Its meaning has not been erased



And so there are claims forgiven

And so there are things that are gone



Houston is filled with promise

Laredo is a beautiful place

Galveston sings like that song that I loved

Its meaning has not been erased



And some things, they fall to the wayside

Their memory is yet to be still

Belief has not filled me

And so I am put to the test


MADONNA lyrics - A New Argentina



[Peron:]

Dice are rolling, the knives are out

Would-be presidents are all around

I don't say they mean harm

But they'd each give an arm

To see us six feet underground



[Eva:]

It doesn't matter what those morons say

Our nation's leaders are a feeble crew

There's only twenty of them anyway

What is twenty next to millions who

Are looking to you?



All you have to do is sit and wait

Keeping out of everybody's way

We'll... you'll be handed power on a plate

When the ones who matter have their say

And with chaos installed

You can reluctantly agree to be called



[Peron:]

There again we could be foolish not to quit while we're ahead

For distance lends enchantment, and that is why

All exiles are distinguished, more important, they're not dead

I could find job satisfaction in Paraguay



[Eva:]

This is crazy defeatist talk

Why commit political suicide, there's no risk

There's no call for any action at all

When you have unions on your side



[Workers:]

A new Argentina, the chains of the masses untied

A new Argentina, the voice of the people

Cannot be denied



[Eva:]

There is only one man who can lead any workers' regime

He lives for your problems, he shares your ideals and your dream

He supports you, for he loves you

Understands you, is one of you

If not, how could he love me?



[Workers:]

A new Argentina, the workers' battle song

A new Argentina, the voice of the people

Rings out loud and long



[Eva:]

Now I am a worker, I've suffered the way that you do

I've been unemployed, and I've starved and I've hated it too

But I found my salvation in Peron, may the nation

Let him save them as he saved me



[All:]

A new Argentina, a new age about to begin

A new Argentina, we face the world together

And no dissent within



[Peron:]

There again we could be foolish not to quit while we're ahead

I can see us many miles away, inactive

Sipping cocktails on a terrace, taking breakfast in bed

Sleeping easy, doing nothing, it's attractive



[Eva:]

Don't think I don't think like you

I often get those nightmares too

They always take some swallowing

Sometimes it's very difficult to keep momentum

If it's you that you are following

Don't close doors, keep an escape clause

Because we might lose the Big Apple



But would I have done what I did

If I hadn't thought, if I hadn't known

We would take the country



[Eva:]

Peron has resigned from the army and this we avow

The descamisados are those he is marching with now

He supports you, for he loves you

Understands you, is one of you

If not, how could he love me?



[All:]

A new Argentina, the chains of the masses untied

A new Argentina, the voice of the people

Cannot be, and must not be denied



[Che:]

How annoying that they have to fight elections for their cause

The inconvenience, having to get a majority

If normal methods of persuasion fail to win them applause

There are other ways of establishing authority



[All:]

A new Argentina, the chains of the masses untied

A new Argentina, the voice of the people

Cannot be, and will not be, and must not be denied.


AMY GRANT lyrics - I Have Decided



(Michael Card)



[Chorus:]

I have decided

I'm gonna live like a believer

Turn my back on the deceiver

I'm gonna live what I believe

I have decided

Being good is just a fable

I just can't, cause I'm not able

I'm gonna leave it to the Lord



There's a wealth of things that I profess

I said that I believed

But deep inside, I never changed

I guess I'd been deceived

Cause a voice inside kept telling me

That I'd change by and by

but the Spirit made it clear to me

That kind of life's a lie



[Chorus]



So forget the game of being good

And your self-righteous pain

Cause the only good inside your heart

Is the good that Jesus brings

When the world begins to see you change

Don't expect them to applaud

Just keep your eyes on Him and tell yourself

I've become the work of God



[Chorus]

ELVIS PRESLEY lyrics - Kentucky Rain



(Eddie Rabbit - Dick Heard)



Seven lonely days

And a dozen towns ago

I reached out one night

And you were gone

Don't know why you'd run,

What you're running to or from

All I know is I want to bring you home



So I'm walking in the rain,

Thumbing for a ride

On this lonely Kentucky backroad

I've loved you much too long

And my love's too strong

To let you go, never knowing

What went wrong



Kentucky rain keeps pouring down

And up ahead's another town

That I'll go walking thru

With the rain in my shoes,

Searchin for you

In the cold Kentucky rain,

In the cold Kentucky rain



Showed your photograph

To some old gray bearded man

Sitting on a bench

Outside a gen'ral store

They said "Yes, she's been here"

But their memory wasn't clear

Was it yesterday,

No, wait the day before



So I fin'ly got a ride

With a preacher man who asked

"Where you bound on such a dark afternoon?"

As we drove on thru the rain

As he listened I explained

And he left me with a prayer

That I'd find you


FRANK ZAPPA lyrics - Suicide Chump



You say there ain't no use in livin'

It's all a waste of time

'N you wanna throw your life away, well

People that's just fine

Go ahead on 'n get it over with then

Find you a bridge 'n take a jump

Just make sure you do it right the first time

'Cause nothin's worse than a Suicide Chump



You say there ain't no light a-shinin'

Through the bushes up ahead

'N we're all gonna be so sorry

When we find out you are dead

Go head on and get it over with then

Find you a bridge 'n take a jump

Just make sure you do it right the first time

'Cause nothin's worse than a Suicide Chump



Now maybe you're scared of jumpin'

'N poison makes you sick

'N you want a little attention

'N you need it pretty quick

Don't wanna mess your face up

Or we won't know if it's you

Aw, there's just so much to worry about

Now what you gonna do?

Go head on 'n get it over with then

Go head on 'n get it over with then

Go head on 'n get it over with then

Go head on 'n get it over with then



You're on the bridge;

Scared to leap,

But a girl walks over

To take a peep. . .

She says: "DON'T DO IT"

But wouldn't you know...

The girl got a head

Like a buffalo

With a little red hair

All over the top

An' her breath would make the

Traffic stop

She says "I LOVE YOU...

BUT FIRST, LET'S EAT"

And all you can say as you run down the street

IRVING BERLIN lyrics - Hey, Wop



[1st verse:]

I got da husband he's so lazy

Sleep all da time and he make me crazy

Seven o'clock he's still in bed, dead

Good-a-ness me but he make-a me sore-a

Like-a da cannon he make da snore-a

Every morning, I

Got to wake him up and cry



[Refrain:]

Hey, wop

It's seven o'clock, get up

Sleep-a no more, sleep-a no more

You wake-a da kids when you make-a da snore

Hey, wop

Go to the barbershop

Take-a da razor and make-a da skip

Shave-a da face and collect-a da tip

What's dat?

You want your breakfast brought in da bed

Shut up, wop

I think you got the swell-a da head

You can sleep just as much as you like when you're dead

It's seven o'clock, get up



[2nd verse:]

While I get up and put on my clothes-a

He sing an opera through his nose-a

All-a da kids they holler "Pop, shut up"

When he begin to make da snore-a

All-a da neighbors who live next door-a

Holler, "Holy Mose!

Put a clothes pin on his nose"

BACHMAN-TURNER OVERDRIVE lyrics - Just For You



You can be the life of the party

Or you can be the belle of the ball

You can break my heart if you want to

And you can make me wait for your call



I can only give you my promise

That I will always stay by your side

You can make my heart spin in circles

And I'll go along for the ride



Just for you - just for you

Ya ya ya ya - just for you

There are so many things I would do

D d d d d d - just for you

Woo-oo-oo

D d d d d d - just for you

Woo-oo-oo



You can be the tiffany diamond

Or you can be the real Coupe de Ville

You can tear my life into pieces

Or you can make my world stand still



I can only say that I love you

So take me for just what I am

You can see the stars in my future

And I'll go along with the plan



You can be the sun in the morning

To shine your light through all of the day

You can lose my love in the darkness

And you can only show me the way



I can only give you my promise

That I will always stay by your side

You can make my heart spin in circles

And I'll go along for the ride


BARRY MANILOW lyrics - New York City Rhythm



When my heart is torn apart

By love I wish I had

Well I spend my nights in the city's lights

And things don't seem so bad

You know the movement seems to soothe me

And the tempo takes control

And I loss my blues when the New York City Rhythm fills my soul



It's the New York City Rhythm runnin' thru my life

The poundin' beat of the city's streets

That keep my dreams alive

I'm lost, I'm found

I'm up, I'm down

But somehow I survive

It's got to be the New York City Rhythm in my life

It's got to be the New York City Rhtym in my life

In my life



When I'm out for love or sin

Oh it's good to be in town

In the funky dives, on the old West Side

There's always something goin' down

Yes, I live my life with strangers

And the danger's always there

But when I hit Broadway and it's time to play

And you know that I don't care



Cause it's the New York City rhythm runnin thru my life

The poundin' beat of the city's streets

That keeps my dreams alive

I'm lost, I'm found

I'm up, I'm down

But some how I survive

It's got to be the New York City rhythm in my life

Oh It's got to be the New York City rhythm in my life

In my life

Oh got to, got to, got to be



You know the movement seems to soothe me

And the tempo makes me high

Its got to be the New York City rhythm in my life

Oh its got to be the New York City rhythm in my life

In my life

Oh got to, got to, got to be

The city in my life

ROXY MUSIC lyrics - She Sells



(Ferry/Jobson)



Now you're talking in headlines

Up to the minute and free

Stop press, hold the front page

Up as a mirror

Are you reading me'

Watch you walking in waltz time

A jigsaw puzzle in tune

Or are you faking a straight line

To suit yourself too soon

Rather nouveau than never

Contemporary ideal

Some natural kind of poet might slow it

But she sells more my speed

She sells country and modern

Ancient western song

Of oriental confusion

You so right, me so wrong

Now you're fixing to fly me-

Auto-erotic, please,

On the break that you're gliding.

Your lingerie's a gift-wrap

Slip it to me

Nine till five

The daily grind

Made-up lies

Make up my mind

Same machine consuming you

Consuming you

Oh why

She sells

I need

Oh why love why

She sells

I need.


THE FLAMING LIPS lyrics - Oh My Pregnant Head (Labia In The Sunlight)



When will you shut your mouth

Stop all the vibrate

Birds flying out of a mountain

Somewhere the snow cools my fever

I just have stumps left for fingers

Wonderin' can you still play guitar?



Just like a baby

Just like the smoke rings

Labia in the sunlight



When will you stop all yours buzzing

Smow crushing hummingbird

(all day)

Somewhere the star burns the universe

Gold eagle paints in my fingers

(all day)

Can of spaghetti diseases

Hopin that you can still play guitar?



Just like a baby

Just like the smoke rings

Labia in the sunlight



Labia in the sunlight [6x]


MANOWAR lyrics - Courage



Some want to think hope is lost see me stand alone

I can't do what others may want then I'll have no home



So for now wave good-bye and leave your hands held high

Hear this song of courage long into the night

So for now wave good-bye and leave your hands held high

Hear this song of courage long into the night



And the wind will bear my cry to all who hope to fly

Hear this song of courage ride into the night



Battles are fought by those with the courage to believe

They are won by those who find the heart

Find a heart to share

This heart that fills the soul will point the way to victory

If there's a fight then I'll be there, I'll be there



So for now wave good-bye, leave your hands held high

Hear this song of courage long into the night

And the wind will bear my cry to all who hope to fly

Lift your wings up high my friend fearless to the end

So for now wave good-bye, leave your hands held high

Hear this song of courage ride into the night


GOLDEN EARRING lyrics - Faded Jeans



(G. Kooymans/B. Hay)



Eatin' TV dinner, with the radio on

Made me cough up this kinda song

There's a guy singin' "I'd die for you"

And it sounds like he means business too

Here's me thinkin' all through the meal

Thank you for bein' so real and givin' me chills



You're the prettiest girl in the world

It's the best joke I ever heard

Young forever, never never grow old together

Gotta put on your blinkers, for a cakewalk in the sun

Like a mission impossible, like Atilla the Hun

Tomorrow's got me hidin' away

Yesterday's got me on the run

And my jeans keep fadin', fadin'

And my jeans keep fadin'



Don't know where these guys do come from

That say they'll kill and die for someone

It's a fluke people, that makes me puke, yeah, yeah

And I can't believe this is the truth

Here's me tryin' to make up my mind

One says "love is hard to find"

Two says that it's blind



You're the prettiest girl in the world

It's the best joke I ever heard

Young forever, never never grow old together

Gotta put on your blinkers, for a cakewalk in the sun

Like a mission impossible, like Atilla the Hun

Tomorrow's got me hidin' away

Yesterday's got me on the run

And my jeans keep fadin', fadin'

And my jeans keep fadin'



We're go out to yourself past

Get yourself a pair of new blue jeans

Into the washin' machine

Six times bleech, bleech, bleech

Mama's going crazy, see what you do

These pairs are brand new

I'll say, send it with

That's my jeans, keep fadin', fadin'

And my jeans keep fadin'


NEIL YOUNG lyrics - Thrasher



They were hiding behind hay bales,

They were planting

in the full moon

They had given all they had

for something new

But the light of day was on them,

They could see the thrashers coming

And the water

shone like diamonds in the dew.



And I was just getting up,

hit the road before it's light

Trying to catch an hour on the sun

When I saw

those thrashers rolling by,

Looking more than two lanes wide

I was feelin'

like my day had just begun.



Where the eagle glides ascending

There's an ancient river bending

Down the timeless gorge of changes

Where sleeplessness awaits

I searched out my companions,

Who were lost in crystal canyons

When the aimless blade of science

Slashed the pearly gates.



It was then I knew I'd had enough,

Burned my credit card for fuel

Headed out to where the pavement

turns to sand

With a one-way ticket

to the land of truth

And my suitcase in my hand

How I lost my friends

I still don't understand.



They had the best selection,

They were poisoned with protection

There was nothing that they needed,

Nothing left to find

They were lost in rock formations

Or became park bench mutations

On the sidewalks

and in the stations

They were waiting, waiting.



So I got bored and left them there,

They were just deadweight to me

Better down the road

without that load

Brings back the time

when I was eight or nine

I was watchin' my mama's T. V.,

It was that great

Grand Canyon rescue episode.



Where the vulture glides descending

On an asphalt highway bending

Thru libraries and museums,

galaxies and stars

Down the windy halls of friendship

To the rose clipped by the bullwhip

The motel of lost companions

Waits with heated pool and bar.



But me I'm not stopping there,

Got my own row left to hoe

Just another line

in the field of time

When the thrasher comes,

I'll be stuck in the sun

Like the dinosaurs in shrines

But I'll know the time has come

To give what's mine.

SIMPLE MINDS lyrics - Glittering Prize



Shine On, Shine the Light on me,

In all of my Life so that much more I see

In the Light of his Love

In the Light of reflection

Oh what a world

Or sometimes oh so it seems

Eyes in the skies

In that silver gift friendship

A Glittering Prize

Is it the prize of lost loves

They can remember quiet sides of midnight

They can remember the attraction of fame

Like a Glittering Prize

I saw up on a clear day

First taking hearts

Then our last breath away



Always came a time - time was on our side

We were spending time - we were staring out

Catch me in a dream - Captured all in heart

We were spending time - we were staring out

Could there ever be - ever more than one

It's called an act of Love

Can you you never stop?



Shine On, Shine the Light on me,

In all of my Life

So much more I see

Like a Glittering Prize

I saw you up on a clear day

First taking heart then our last breath away

Only on a clear day coming into our lives



See it in the eye - satellite skies

We were spending time - we were staring out

Take in, Take in more - The Endless breath away

We were spending time - we were staring out

Could there ever be - ever more than one

It's called an act of Love

Can you you never stop?



Always on a clear day

Crashing into our lives

Is it the Price of Love

Like a Glittering Prize

Always on a clear day

Crashing into our lives

With your love

Only on a clear day


THE POLICE lyrics - Hungry For You (J'Aurais Toujours Faim De Toi)



(Sting)



Rien de dormier cette nuit

Je veux de toi

Jusque'a` ce que je sois sec

Mais nos corps sont tout mouille's

Comple'tement couvert de sueur

Nous nous noyons dans la mare'e

Je n'ai aucun de'sir

Tu as ravage' mon coeur

Et mois j'ai bu ton sang



Mais non pouvons faire ce que nous voulons

J'aurais toujours faim de toi

Mais non pouvons faire ce que nous voulons

J'aurais toujours faim de toi



Tout le monde est a` moi

Je l'ai gagne' dans un jeu de cartes

Et maintenant je m'en fous

C'e'tait gagne' trop facilement

Ca y est alors ma belle trai^tresse

Il faut que je bru^le de jalousie

Tu as ravage' mon coeur

Et moi j'ai bu ton sang



Mais non pouvons faire ce que nous voulons

J'aurais toujours faim de toi

Mais non pouvons faire ce que nous voulons

J'aurais toujours faim de toi



Mais non pouvons faire ce que nous voulons

J'aurais toujours faim de toi

Mais non pouvons faire ce que nous voulons

J'aurais toujours faim de toi



No matter what I do

I'm still hungry for you

No matter what I do

I'm still hungry for you



Rien de dormir cette nuit

Je veux de toi jusque'a` ce que je sois sec

Mais nos corps sont tout mouille's

Comple'tement couvert de sueur


JANET JACKSON lyrics - You Ain't Right



Took myself on to the doctor wasn't feeling fine

I had a fever 104

Oh that blew my mind

Must be I had enough

'Bout to explode from the gossip i said

Thought my friend had my back

Just to stab oh yeah

Hurts so bad when I talk

Wanna take something

Numb the pain I know it ain't right

Come face to face with her

Gotta tell her how I feel inside



Ooh hoo you ain't right

Ooh hoo sick and tired

Yeah yeah yeah yeah



The doctor said he'd give me something

And I'd be alright

I still feel queezy, feel uneasy

No more drugs for me

Friendships I cherish oh

Let very few in the circle I said

These walls I don't let down

Not very easily

Some friends you grow old with

And they'll be there 'til the very end

I do believe that

But not with her like I thought

Let her in and I'll get stabbed again



Ooh hoo you ain't right

Ooh hoo sick and tired

Yeah yeah yeah yeah


NANCI GRIFFITH lyrics - Let It Shine On Me



(Paul Kennerly)



There's a star in heaven's sky

Always shining bright

It's just a tear in an angel's eye

A gentle guiding light



[Chorus:]

Let it shine on me

Let it show the way

Let it always be

Let it always stay

Let it flood my soul

Let it hold the key

Let it all unfold

Let it shine on me



When the way seems so dark

Let it shine on me

Bringing home within my heart

A reason to believe



[Chorus 2x]

SOCIAL DISTORTION lyrics - Hour Of Darkness



An hour of anger an hour of love,

This hour of confusion as I look above.

Death life as I've never seen before,

One more trip like that I'm in the mental ward



[Chorus:]

These sights sounds are all around me,

They grasp and they don't let go.

The sirens, the cries, the laughter the sighs,

I hear thee hour - My Hour of Darkness

An hour of darkness, an hour that's passed,

This life I feel just won't be surpassed.



Death life as I've never seen before,

One more trip like that I'm in the morgue.



[Chorus]


TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS lyrics - Can't Stop The Sun



Well you may take my money

You may turn off my microphone

But you can't steal

What you can't feel



Can't stop the sun from shining

Shining down and down and down



And you may think you control things

But there'll be more just like me

Who won't give in

Who'll rise again



Can't stop the world from turnin'

Turnin' round and round and round



Hey mister business man

Be sure to wash your hands

Be careful where you stand

'Cause life goes on and on and on

Life goes on and on and on



And you may think it's all over

But there'll be more just like me

Who won't give in

Who'll rise again



Can't stop a man from dreamin'

Dreamin' on and on and on


IRVING BERLIN lyrics - When The Black Sheep Returns To The Fold



[1st verse:]

When the robin returns to its nest

After straying away from the rest

There's a welcome that waits

From its feathery mates

A welcome that can't be expressed

So it is with the boy who decided

From his father and mother to roam

Through his travels he may be misguided

But when fin'lly the black sheep comes home



[Refrain:]

Ev'rything that he did is forgotten

And they welcome him back to the fold

He knows by their sad, wrinkled faces

That the pain of his absence has told

Once again, they all sit 'round the table

As they did in the days of old

And they'll weep tears of joy

As they whisper "My Boy"

When the black sheep returns to the fold



[2nd verse:]

When the smile of a fool starts to fade

When he finds out the errors he made

Then the old-fashioned truth

That he heard in his youth

Says, "Go home," but he is afraid

As he stands on the threshold of sorrow

With the doors of the world closed up tight

He compares yesterday with tomorrow

And decides that he'll go home that night

DEAN MARTIN lyrics - I'll String Along With You



You may not be an angel

'Cause angels are so few

But until the day that one comes along

I'll string along with you



I'm looking for an angel

To sing my love song to

And until the day that one comes along

I'll string along with you



For every little fault that you have

Say I have three or four

The human little fault that you do have

Just make me love you more



You may not be angel

But still I'm sure you'll do

So until that day that one comes along

I'll string along with you



For every little fault that you have

Say I have three or four

The human little fault that you do have

Just make me love you more



You may not be angel

But still I'm sure you'll do

So until that day that one comes along

I'll string along with you
