KING CRIMSON lyrics - Lady Of The Dancing Water



(Fripp/Sinfield)



Grass in your hair stretched like a lion in the sun

Restlessly turned moistened your mouth with your tongue.

Pouring my wine in your eyes caged mine glowing

Touching your face my fingers strayed knowing.

I called you lady of the dancing water.



Blown autumn leaves shed to the fire where you laid me

Burn slow to ash just as my days now seem to be.

I feel you still always your eyes glowing

Remembered hours salt, earth and flowers flowing

Farewell my lady of the dancing water.


ELTON JOHN lyrics - Electricity



(Music by Elton John, Lyrics by Lee Hall)



I can't really explain it, I haven't got the words

It's a feeling that you can't control

I suppose it's like forgetting, losing who you are

And at the same time something makes you whole



It's like that there's a music, playing in your ear

And I'm listening, and I'm listening, and then I disappear



And then I feel a change, like a fire deep inside

Something bursting me wide open, impossible to hide

And suddenly I'm flying, flying like a bird

Like Electricity, electricity

Sparks inside of me, and I'm free, I'm free



It's a bit like being angry; it's a bit like being scared

Confused and all mixed up and mad as hell

It's like when you've been crying

And you're empty and you're full

I don't know what it is, it's hard to tell



It's like that there's some music, playing in your ear

But the music is impossible, impossible to hear



But then I feel it move me

Like a burning deep inside

Something bursting me wide open

Impossible to hide

And suddenly I'm flying

Flying like a bird

Like Electricity, electricity

Sparks inside of me

And I'm free, I'm free



Electricity sparks inside of me

And I'm free, I'm free

Oh, I'm free


MEGADETH lyrics - Hangar 18



Welcome to our fortress tall

Take some time to show you around

Impossible to break these walls

For you see the steel is much too strong

Computer banks to rule the world

Instruments to sight the stars



Possibly I've seen to much

Hangar 18 I know too much



Foreign life forms inventory

Suspended state of cryogenics

Selective amnesia's the story

Believed foretold but who'd suspect

The military intelligence

Two words combined that can't make sense



Possibly I've seen to much

Hangar 18 I know too much


JOY DIVISION lyrics - Decades



Here are the young men, the weight on their shoulders,

Here are the young men, well where have they been?

We knocked on the doors of Hell's darker chamber,

Pushed to the limit, we dragged ourselves in,

Watched from the wings as the scenes were replaying,

We saw ourselves now as we never had seen.

Portrayal of the trauma and degeneration,

The sorrows we suffered and never were free.



Where have they been?

Where have they been?

Where have they been?

Where have they been?



Weary inside, now our heart's lost forever,

Can't replace the fear, or the thrill of the chase,

Each ritual showed up the door for our wanderings,

Open then shut, then slammed in our face.



Where have they been?

Where have they been?

Where have they been?

Where have they been?

CHRIS REA lyrics - When You Know Your Love Has Died



Me, I'm just running wild

Can't give you the advice you need this time

You say of her, you can't decide

And yet you sit and watch her cry

Friend you're like the wind that blows

Like the sea you come and go



I'm not trying to tell you

How I think that it should be

'Cos I know deep down inside

That you're yearning to be free

And you're only gonna think of No 1.

So what am I to say

No matter what you do you're gonna hurt her anyway



When you know that your love has died

And you know how you feel inside

You've got to face up and show

What you're feeling when you know



Your parting words will be so untrue

Just as long as it don't come down on you

And you're scared to lay it on the line

Just in case you change your mind



I'm not trying to tell you

How I think that it should be

'Cos I know deep down inside

That you're yearning to be free

And you're only gonna think of No 1.

So what am I to say

No matter what you do you're gonna hurt her anyway



When you know that your love has died

And you know how you feel inside

You've got to face up and show

What you're feeling when you know


BUDDY & JULIE MILLER lyrics - Just Want You



They say that, since I met you, now I don't know how to have fun, (I just want you)

They throw the same old party like they used to, but now I don't want to come, (I just want you)

They take the same old medicine - I know what it's for,

They thinks it's such a thrill, but to me it's just a bore,

That temporary high - just can't use no more.



Now other people got their reputations, got their prominent positions, (I just want you)

Some fine degree, financial security, and a beauty queen to kiss them, (I just want you)

Yeah, yeah, they got their little gypsies and their daily horoscope,

They got a piece of crystal, and they rub to help them cope,

It's gonna take a lot more than that to give me hope.



Oh, I just want you, (I just want you)

I just want you, (I just want you)

Just want you, you, you.



I love you, I love you,

I love you, I love you.



Yeah, yeah, my soul is satisfied just to be in you company,

My heart is sure unchained, and your compassion brought the keys,

You're the only one that brings me to my knees.



Oh, I just want you, (I just want you)

Just want you, (I just want you)

Just want you, whoa, it's you,

I just want you, (I just want you)

I just want you, (I just want you)

Just want you, whoa, it's you,

I just want you, (I just want you)

Just want you, (I just want you)

I just want you, (I just want you)

I just want you, I just want you, want you.


SANDRA lyrics - Children Of England



(Kemmler/Lohr - Hirschburger/Kemmler)



child

a child plays in silence

runnin' wild

he's never comin' home



king for a night

for a night



children of England

why do you run for your lives

when you need someone

i'm gonna show

my children of England

don't have to stand here aside

this reign has started long ago



mother i'll go far away

cause my heart is young

i find a way into their souls

an' understand

they're lookin' out for love



cry for the moon

for the moon



children of England

why do you run for your lives

when you need someone

i'm gonna show

my children of England

don't have to stand here aside

this reign has started long ago

THE MANHATTAN TRANSFER lyrics - I Need A Man



(Gene Pistilli and Tom Anthony)



Roof over my head, keep out the rain

Food on the table, I can't complain

When I had no one, you reached out your hand

I want what you give me, but I need a man



We'll not go hungry, we'll never be cold

Long as we have each other to hold

I do without most things, I get by somehow

But I need a man, and I need him now



Nobody special, just the usual kind

Works hard all day and comes home to unwind

I don't care what he looks like if he's just my own

But I know I'll go crazy one more night, more night, one more night alone



Don't need no lectures on what's right for me

Wake up each morning, I know what I see

No one's beside me, can't you understand

From so deep inside me, I need a man



So deep inside me, I need a man [6x]


LINDA RONSTADT lyrics - Down So Low



(Tracy Nelson)



When you went away I cried

Cried for so long

And I wanted you to stay

Ah but that was all wrong



The pain you left behind

Has become part of me

And it's burned out a hole

Where my love used to be



But it's not losing you

That's got me down so low

I just can't find another man

To take your place



Well you know I love you

But that wasn't enough

We both fell apart

When things got too tough

And I've learned how to give now

But what good

But what good would that do

No one can touch me

The way you used to do



And it's not losing you

That's got me down so low

I just can't find another man

To take your place



Well I know your opinion

Of me is not good

Please try to understand

That I'd change

Well I'd change if I could

And this coldness inside me

Well it's starting to build

And a woman can't be a woman

Unless she's fulfilled



But it's not losing you

That's got me down so low

I just can't find another man

To take your place

There's no one can

THE EAGLES lyrics - New Kid In Town



There's talk on the street; it sounds so familiar

Great expectations, everybody's watching you

People you meet, they all seem to know you

Even your old friends treat you like you're something new



Johnny come lately, the new kid in town

Everybody loves you, so don't let them down



You look in her eyes; the music begins to play

Hopeless romantics, here we go again

But after awhile, you're lookin' the other way

It's those restless hearts that never mend



Johnny come lately, the new kid in town

Will she still love you when you're not around?

There's so many things you should have told her,

but night after night you're willing to hold her,

Just hold her, tears on your shoulder



There's talk on the street, it's there to

Remind you, that it doesn't really matter

which side you're on.

You're walking away and they're talking behind you

They will never forget you 'til somebody new comes along

Where you been lately? There's a new kid in town

Everybody loves him, don't they?

Now he's holding her, and you're still around

Oh, my, my

There's a new kid in town

Ooh, hoo

Everybody's talking 'bout the new kid in town

Ooh, hoo

Everybody's walking' like the new kid in town

There's a new kid in town

There's a new kid in town

I don't want to hear it

There's a new kid in town

I don't want to hear it

There's a new kid in town

There's a new kid in town

There's a new kid in town

THE BEATLES lyrics - She's A Woman



My love don't give me presents

I know that she's no peasant

Only ever has to give me

Love forever and forever

My love don't give me presents

Turn me on when I get lonely

People tell me that she's only

Fooling, I know she isn't



She don't give the boys the eye

She hates to see me cry

She is happy just to hear me say

That I will never leave her

She don't give the boys the eye

She will never make me jealous

Gives me all her time as well as

Loving, don't ask me why



She's a woman who understands

She's a woman who loves her man



My love don't give me presents

I know that she's no peasant

Only ever has to give me love

Forever and forever

My love don't give me presents

Turn me on when I get lonely

People tell me that she's only

Fooling, I know she isn't



She's a woman who understands

She's a woman who loves her man



My love don't give me presents

I know that she's no peasant

Only ever has to give me

Love forever and forever

My love don't give me presents

Turn me on when I get lonely

People tell me that she's only

Fooling, I know she isn't



She's a woman, she's a woman

She's a woman, she's a woman


WHITE ZOMBIE lyrics - Diamond Ass



Asylum erotica. Yea I said the ones on the wheels.

Doomsday machinist. Flying out the window.

She's looking strange.

Nowhere to nowhere diamonds she's got what it takes diamonds forever.

You'd be surprised. Come on baby get it in gear.

Stone-face and rawmeat. Nowhere to nowhere diamonds.

Projected from above. A dead astronaunt returns. Buried in 69.

Brain is all crystalized more horrible than before, parasite sucking style.

Hey, yea man it's out of sight. Anti-christ service.

Hey, yea man it's out of sight.


JAMES TAYLOR lyrics - Up Er Mei



We were walking in paradise, never did notice. Blind in the Buddha land, looking for solace.

We had been told of a place, far beyond this vale of tears.

We could never have guessed, we were already blessed.

There we were, where we are in the garden.



Didn't we climb on up Er Mei, temple to temple?

Yes and all and all along the way, the day was simple.

Didn't we reach the top, didn't we gain our goal? Did we finally stop, surprised by the cold?



We were walking in paradise, never did tumble. Blind in the Buddha land, looking for trouble.

We had been told of a place far beyond this vale of tears.

We could never have guessed, we were already blessed.

There we were, where we are, in the garden, in the garden.


TEARS FOR FEARS lyrics - Fish Out Of Water



You always said you were the compassionate one

But now you're laughing at the sun

With all your high class friends you think you've got it made

The only thing you made was that tanned look on your face

With all your cigarettes and fancy cars

You ain't a clue who or what you are

You're dreaming your life away

Fish out of water

Go swim in the tide today

Fish out of water

We used to sit and talk about primal scream

To exorsice our past was our adolescent dream

But now it's sink or swim since your memory fails

Now in Neptune's kitchen you will be food for killer whales

And on the crucifix his mother made

Hangs one more martyr to the hit parade

You're dreaming you're life away

Fish out of water

Go swim in the tide today

Fish out of water

You're dreaming you're life away

Fish out of water

Go swim in the tide today

Fish out of water


TOAD THE WET SPROCKET lyrics - All I Want



Nothing's so loud

As hearing when we lie

The truth is not kind

And you've said neither am I

But the air outside so soft is saying everything

Everything



All I want is to feel this way

To be this close, to feel the same

All I want is to feel this way

The evening speaks, I feel it say...



Nothing's so cold

As closing the heart when all we need

Is to free the soul

But we wouldn't be that brave I know

And the air outside so soft, confessing everything

Everything



And it won't matter now

Whatever happens to me

Though the air speaks of all we'll never be

It won't trouble me



And it feels so close

Let it take me in

Let it hold me so

I can feel it say...

BEACH BOYS lyrics - Let Us Go On This Way



(Brian Wilson/Mike Love)



To get t'you baby I went through the wringer

Ain't gonna let you slip through my fingers

Going to school isn't my fondest desire

But sittin' in class you set my soul on fire

God please let us go on this way



All day long I practiced what to say-ay

I think about this game that I like to play-ay

When I leave you I'm so depressed

'Cause you're my only happiness

God please let us go on this way



Seems we have extra-sensory perception

You can send me thoughts I'd have no objection

Now we can fly high in the sky

We'll live forever, we'll never die



God please let us go on this way-ay

(God please let us go on)

God please let us go on this way-ay

(God please let us go on)

God please let us go on this way-ay

(God please let us go on)

God don't let her slip through my fingers

(God please let us go on)

God please let us go on this way-ay

A-HA lyrics - I Won't Forget Her



I won't forget her

She was once my love



When I hold you in my arms

Oh yeah

You know I'll let you come to no harm

Oh yeah



But if one day

Much like today

You stop and wonder what I'd prefer

Well, you know I won't forget her



I won't forget her

She was once my love



Did you see it in my eyes

Oh yeah

Did it make you realise

Oh yeah



That one day

Much like today

My mind would wonder

If she's still there



Cause you know I won't forget her



I won't forget her

She was once my love



When I hold you in my arms

Oh yeah

She was once my love



I won't forget her

She was once my love


DONNA SUMMER lyrics - Suzanna



Suzanna, you better watch your mouth

Suzanna, bad things are coming out

Somebody's watching from on high

Distant love is hard to find



Always looking for the right direction, oh yeah

Move in and out without detection, yeah

How many times have others gone and spoke their mind

Out of line, it's not nice, it's not nice, it's not nice



Suzanna, Suzanna



Suzanna, what's that look on your face

Suzanna, girl you look out of place

Somebody's watching from behind

Don't tell them anything you find



Wanna live your life without correction, yeah

Move in and out looking for perfection, oh yeah

How many times you've gone and spoken out your mind

Out of line, it's not nice, it's not nice, it's not nice



Suzanna, Suzanna



How many times you've been caught talking your jive

How many times lives you've gone and ruined it's a crime, oh yeah

It's a crime, it's not nice, it's not nice, it's not nice



Somebody's watching from behind

Just be aware of what you find



Suzanna

Suzanna, what's that look on your face

Suzanna, girl you look out of place

Suzanna, what's that look on your face

Suzanna, girl you look out of place

BON JOVI lyrics - Little Bit Of Soul



You been robbed

You been used

You been crucified and

You been abused

You been sacrificen and

Now you're confused

Ain't it the truth



You got a hole in your head

And a cold empty spot

In your big brass bed

When you're mad at the world and

You feel like you're losing control

All you need to get by is

A little bit o soul



When you've lost in the flood

And you feel like you been

Kicked through the mud

You know they still

Haven't found the drug

To pick us up



Feeling down, misunderstood

You know these times

They ain't looking so good

When you're mad at the world and

You feel like you're losing control

What we all need to get by is

A little o soul



Whoa oh

Little bit of soul

What we all need

To survive

Is just

A little bit o soul



Everyone's complaining

Nothing but frustration

The king has pissed in

Your pot of gold

It ain't entertaining spending

So much time in the hole

Send down

A little bit o soul



When you're mad at the world

And you feel like

You're losing control

What we all need

To get by is just

A little bit o soul



Whoa oh little bit o soul



Whoa oh little bit o soul



Whoa oh little bit o soul


THE OFFSPRING lyrics - Hammerhead



I am the one

Camouflage and guns

Risk my life

To keep my people from harm



Authority

Vested in me

I sacrifice

With my brothers in arms



Through this doorway

What's on the other side

Never knowing

Exactly what I'll find

Locked and loaded

Voices screaming

Let's go!

Come on do it!

Here we go



Take a life

That others may live

Oh that's just the way it goes

Shut my eyes

It hammers in my head

Where it'll end nobody knows



Take a life

That ten others may live

Oh that's just the way it goes

It's playing over and over in my head

Where it'll end

Nobody knows



Stay the course

Reasonable force

I believe I serve a greater good



Smoke and dust

Enemies are crushed

Nothing left

Where a man once stood



Through this doorway

What's on the other side

Never knowing

Exactly what I'll find

Locked and loaded

Voices screaming

Let's go!

But I'm just doing what I'm told



Take a life

That others may live

Oh that's just the way it goes

Shut my eyes

It hammers in my head

Where it'll end

Nobody knows



Take this life

That ten others may live

Oh that's just the way it goes

It's playing over and over in my head

Where it begins

And where it'll end

Nobody knows



Bang bang it hammers in my head

Bang bang it hammers in my head

Bang bang it hammers in my head

In my head

In my head



Yea though I walk through the valley of the

Shadow of death, I will fear no evil:

For Thou art with me

Locked and loaded

Gonna find my truth

Now I'm busting through

All hell breaks loose



And you can all hide behind your desks now

And you can cry, 'teacher come help me!'

Through you all

My aim is true

AEROSMITH lyrics - Rocket 88



Yea I think I know

I really hate it when it gets too slow

I gotta try and keep myself amused

I love the way my rocket purrs

I like it best when I see blurs

You gotta love to watch me light my fuse



No more lookin' back to yesterday

I got the thing to blow us both away

All I need is you to navigate

So come and ride my Rocket 88



Call it chump change, I think not

'Cause I got sump'n no one else has got

It's no look like and it ain't no protege

Its nuclear my Rocket 88



Well get down on the darkside of the moon

And leave a little somthin' on the dune

This home by ten is gonna have to wait

'Cause we got a Rocket 88



Light years honey that's how far we'll go

Let's fire it up and watch the rockets glow

Gee suit, g-spot, gee I really must admit

I got my Rocket 88, honey this is it



So no more up against the wall

Just come with me and watch the earth get small

I swear you never will come down at all

So if you like it in your face

I'll rub your nose into outer space

And turn into a red hot fireball


LINDA RONSTADT lyrics - I'm Blowing Away



(Eric Kaz)



I've been romanced dined and danced

Crazy nights and wild times

But my life has lost its mystery

Love is blind and it cannot find me



I'm blowing away

Shadows take my love and leave

I'm blowing away

Shadows keep taking my love and leaving me



And I have cast aside my foolish pride

And I'm going down for the last time

And I have searched this earth

And I've sailed these seas

Love is blind and it cannot find me



I'm blowing away

Shadows take my love and leave

I'm blowing away

Shadows keep taking my love and leaving me

You keep taking my love and leaving me


ELLA FITZGERALD lyrics - The One I Love Belongs To Somebody Else



The one I love belongs to somebody else

She means her tender songs for somebody else

And even when I have my arms around her

I know her thoughts are strong for somebody else

The hands I held belong to somebody else

I'll bet they're not so cold to somebody else

It's tough to be alone on the shelf

It's worse to fall in love by yourself

The one I love belongs to somebody else

The one I love belongs to somebody else


BEE GEES lyrics - Jingle Jangle



Jingle jangle, my love wears silvery bangles

She likes to wander and that's why I'm under

the spell of her jingle jangle



We used to cry on each others shoulder

Now that I'm older, she wanders ahead

Now that she's found love, I still hear the sound of

silvery bangles, remain in my head



Jingle jangle, my love wears silvery bangles

She used to wander and that's why I'm under

the spell of her jingle jangle



mmm..... (fade)


THE TRAVELING WILBURYS lyrics - Wilbury Twist



(The Traveling Wilburys)



You put your hand on your head

Put your foot in the air

Then you hop around in the room

In your underwear

Ain't ever bin nothin' quite like this

Come on baby it's The Wilbury Twist



Lift your other foot up

Fall on your ass

Get back up,

Put your teeth in a glass

Ain't ever bin nothin' quite like this

It's a magical thing called The Wilbury Twist



Everybody's tryin' to do the Wilbury Twist



Roll up your rug,

Dust your broom

Ball the jack,

Howl at the moon

Ain't ever bin nothin' quite like this

Everybody's tryin' to do The Wilbury Twist



Turn your lights down low

Put your blindfold on

You'll never know

Where your friends have gone

Could be years before you're missed

Everybody's trying to do The Wilbury Twist



It's a different dance

For you all to do

Spin your body like a screw

Better not forget it on your shopping list

You can stop and buy one it's The Wilbury Twist



Ain't never bin nothin' quite like this

Eh, come and get it it's the Wilbury Twist

I guess by now you got the gist

Everybody's crazy 'bout the Wilbury Twist

JIMMY BUFFETT lyrics - It's Five O'Clock Somewhere



[Alan:]

The sun is hot and that old clock,

is movin' slow, and so am I.

Work day passes like molasses,

in winter time, but it's July.



Getting paid by the hour,

and older by the minute.

My boss just pushed me,

over the limit.



I could call him something,

think I'll just call it a day...



Pour me something tall and strong.

Make it a hurricane, before I go insane.

It's only half past twelve. But I don't care,

it's five o'clock somewhere.



This lunch break is gonna take

all afternoon, half the night.

Tomorrow morning I know there'll be hell to pay,

but, hey, that's all right.



I ain't had a day off now, in over a year.

My Jamaican vacation's gonna start right here.

If the phone's for me you can tell them

I just sailed away....



Pour me something tall and strong.

Make it a hurricane, before I go insane.

It's only half past twelve. But I don't care,

it's five o'clock somewhere.



[Instrumental]



I could pay off my tab, pour myself in a cab,

and be back to work before two.

At a moment like this, I can't help but wonder,

what would Jimmy Buffett do.



[Jimmy:]

Funny you should ask Alan, I'd say...

Pour me something tall and strong.

Make it a hurricane, before I go insane.

It's only half past twelve, but I don't care.



[Together:]

Pour me something tall and strong.

Make it a hurricane, before I go insane.

It's only half past twelve. But I don't care,

it's five o'clock somewhere.



[Alan:]

... but he don't care, I don't care.

Together

It's five o'clock somewhere.



[Talking:]

[Jimmy:] What time zone am I on? What country am I in?

[Alan:] It doesn't matter, it's five o'clock somewhere!

[Jimmy:] It's always on time for Margaritaville, come to think of it.

[Alan:] I heard that.

[Jimmy:] You've been there haven't ya?

[Alan:] Yes sir!

[Jimmy:] I've seen your boat there.

[Alan:] I've been to Margaritaville a few times.

[Jimmy:] Alright, that's good.

[Alan:] Stumbled on my way back.

[Jimmy:] OK, well I just want to make sure you keep it between the navigational beacons.

[Alan:] hahaha! Keep it between the bouys. I got it!

[Jimmy:] Alright, well it's five o'clock. Let's go somewhere!

[Alan:] I'm ready. Crank it up!

[Jimmy:] Let's get out of here!

[Alan:] I'm gone!


BEE GEES lyrics - Where Are You



Where are you (where are you)

Night is day and day is night

Where are you (where are you)

Need you girl you're not in sight

Our love would grow, but you leave and I know

that you don't love me (where are you)

I need you girl, you're not in sight

I told you (I told you)

I was never coming back - ah

You told me (You told me)

You would give my love the sack-ah

Now as I fly, you won't tell me goodbye

'cause you don't love me (where are you)



Now you give my love the sack-ah

Now as my heart lies in pieces of eight

You were a part of my love but too late

I love you (I love you)

This I think that you should know

I'll be blue (I'll be blue)

You are still 'cause I must

I'd like to stay but I know you won't play

and see things my way (where are you)

You are still 'cause I must go

You are still 'cause I must

I must go (where are you )


JUDAS PRIEST lyrics - Breaking The Law



(Halford/Tipton/Downing)



There I was completely wasting, out of work and down

all inside it's so frustrating as I drift from town to town

feel as though nobody cares if I live or die

so I might as well begin to put some action in my life



Breaking the law, breaking the law

Breaking the law, breaking the law

Breaking the law, breaking the law

Breaking the law, breaking the law



So much for the golden future, I can't even start

I've had every promise broken, there's anger in my heart

you don't know what it's like, you don't have a clue

if you did you'd find yourselves doing the same thing too



Breaking the law, breaking the law

Breaking the law, breaking the law

Breaking the law, breaking the law

Breaking the law, breaking the law



You don't know what it's like



Breaking the law, breaking the law

Breaking the law, breaking the law

Breaking the law, breaking the law

Breaking the law, breaking the law



Breaking the law


SWEET lyrics - Waters Edge



(Scott/Tucker/Priest)



I don't wanna live here any more

The plus is to high as a vaine

With a little less take and a little more give

I might find a reason for staying



Down by the waters edge

'coes theres too much gone on under

Down by the waters edge

'coes theres too much gone under



Give me a ticket to the promised land

I'll still gotta settel my score

The next boat is leaving and i be there

We're the last in line we shot the door



Down by the waters edge

'coues theres too much gone on under

Down by the waters edge

'coes theres too much gone under



Now i am here in my paradise

Living my life my way

Love is the only thing that i need

I found my reason for staying



Down by the waters edge

'coues theres too much gone on under

Down by the waters edge

'coes theres too much gone under

CAROLE KING lyrics - Brighter



We've been knowing each other

For many a year, it's true

And I can't think of anyone else

Can make me feel as good as you

Yeah, you make my day

A little bit brighter in every way



I'm so glad to have you

In this old troubled time

When true love and understanding, child

Are so hard to find

Yes, you make my way

A little bit lighter every day



Some people live in darkness

Their whole life through

I just know that I'd have been one of them

If it hadn't been for you



Now, sometimes I feel afraid

As we all tend to do

But I think of the loving good times we've had

And I know we're gonna make it through

'Cause you make my day

A little bit brighter in every way


GEORGE HARRISON lyrics - The Answer's At The End



Scan not a friend with a microscopic glass

You know his faults, now let the foibles pass

Life is one long enigma, my friend

So read on, read on, the answer's at the end



Don't be so hard on the ones that you love

It's the ones that you love we think so little of

Don't be so hard on the ones that you need

It's the ones that you need we think so little of



The speech of flowers excels the flowers of speech

But what's often in your heart, is the hardest thing to reach

And life is one long mystery, my friend

So live on, live on, the answer's at the end



Don't be so hard on the ones that you love

It's the ones that you love we think so little of

Don't be so hard on the ones that you need

It's the ones that you need we think so little of



Don't be so hard on the ones that you love

It's the ones that you love we think so little of

Don't be so hard on the ones that you need

It's the ones that you need we think so little of



Oh, we think so little of the ones that we love, sometimes

Isn't it a pity how we hurt

The ones that we love the most of all

The ones we shouldn't hurt at all



You know my faults, now let the foibles pass

'Cause life is one long enigma, my friend

Live on, live on, the answer's at the end



Don't be so hard on the ones that you love

It's the ones that you love we think so little of

Don't be so hard on the ones that you need

It's the ones that you need we think so little of



Don't be so hard on the ones that you love

It's the ones that you love we think so little of

Don't be so hard on the ones that you need

It's the ones that you need we think so little of



The ones that we love

We hurt the most of all, sometimes

And isn't it a pity how

We hurt the ones that we love (fade)

NICK CAVE AND THE BAD SEEDS lyrics - Right Out Of Your Hand



Please forgive me

If I appear unkind

But any fool can tell you

It's all in your mind



Down in the meadow

The old lion stirs

Puts his hand 'cross his mouth

He has no use for words



Poor little girl

With your handful of snow

Poor little girl

Had no way to know



And you've got me eating

You've got me eating

You've got me eating

Right out of your hand



I mean you no harm

When I tell you you're blind

Give a sucker an even break

He'll lose it all, every time



The airborne starlings circle

Over the frozen fields

The hollyhocks hang harmlessly

And the old lion yields



And you've got me eating

You've got me eating

You've got me eating

Right out of your hand


BRENDA LEE lyrics - Build A Big Fence



(C. Taylor)



Gonna build a big fence around my baby,

Hum, hum, oh yeah

Gonna guild a big fence around my baby,

Hum, hum, oh yeah



I like everything that you do,

Why honey that's why I'm in love with you

Gonna build a big fence around my baby,

So they can't steal my baby from me



I just love the way you sigh

And the twinkle in your eye

There will never ever be anyone else for me,

For me, for me, for me, for me



Gonna build a big fence around my baby,

Hum, hum, oh yeah

Gonna build a big fence around my baby,

Hum, hum, oh yeah

Holy smokes, and land sakes alive,

When he looks at me I get butterflies

Gonna build a big fence around my baby,

So they can't steal my man away from me



I just love the way you sigh

And the twinkle in your eye

There will never ever be anyone else for me,

For me, for me, for me, for me



Gonna build a big fence around by baby,

Hum, hum, oh yeah

Gonna build a big fence around my baby,

Hum, hum, oh yeah

I'll gonna build this fence up to the sky,

Just for me and my little sugar pie



Gonna build a big fence around my baby

So they can't steal him away from me

So they can't steal my baby from me

So they can't steal my baby from me


RAINBOW lyrics - The Temple Of The King



One day in the year of the fox

Came a time remembered well

When the strong young man of the rising sun

Heard the tolling of the great black bell



One day in the year of the fox

When the bell began to ring

Meant the time had cometh

For one to go

To the temple of the king



There in the middle of the circle he stands

Searching, seeking

With just one touch of his trembling hand

The answer will be found



Daylight waits while the old man sings

Heaven help me

And then like the rush of a thousand wings

It shines upon the one

And the day had just begun



One day in the year of the fox

Came a time remembered well

When the strong young man of the rising sun

Heard the tolling of the great black bell



One day in the year of the fox

When the bell began to sing

It meant the time had cometh

For one to go

To the temple of the king



There in the middle of the people

He stands

Seeing, feeling

With just a wave of a strong right hand

He's gone

To the temple of the king



Far from the circle at the edge of the world

He's hoping, wondering

Thinking back from the stories he's heard

Of what he's going to see



There in middle of the circle it lies

Heaven help me

Then all could see by the shine in his eyes

The answer had been found



Back with the people in the circle

He stands

Giving, feeling

With just one touch of a strong right hand

They know

Of the temple and the king

BIG BILL BROONZY lyrics - Mopper's Blues



(Big Bill Broonzy)



I've got the mopper's blues, I've got the mopper's blues

I've got the mopper's blues, I've got the mopper's blues

Yes, I got the mopper's blues, but I'm the happiest man in town



Baby, I ain't got no gal, you know I ain't got no gal

Lord, I ain't got no gal, I ain't got no gal

I ain't got no gal, but I'm the happiest man in town



I ain't got no money, I ain't got no money,

Lord, I ain't got no money, I ain't got no money

Lord, I ain't got no money, but I'm the happiest man in town.



I've got to screw, I've got to roll,

I've got to sweep, 'n I've got to dust

Yes, I've got to mop, but I'm the happiest man in town



I ain't got no home, I ain't got no home

Lord, I ain't got no home, baby, I ain't got no home

I ain't got no home, but I'm the happiest man in town



Baby, I'm all alone, you know I'm all alone

Baby, I'm all alone, yes, I'm all alone

Yes, I'm all alone, but I'm the happiest man in town



I know I can't loose, baby, I can't loose

Baby, I know I can't loose, I know I can't loose

I know I can't loose, not with this moppin' blues on you


THIN LIZZY lyrics - Bad Habits



I seen you walking down the street with another man

Girl you're really shocking

I seen you walking down the street with another hand

Held in your stockings



Boys will be boys and girls will be trouble

And I'm a man of bad habits

I seen you walking down the street with another man

Girl I had to have it



Bad habits

Bad habits

Bad habits



You and I we should meet

Yeah, you and I we should get together

Me and you and I should meet

In the rain and stormy weather



Bad habits

Bad habits

Bad habits



No messing around

Now's the time to start



Boys will be boys and girls will be trouble

And I'm a man of bad habits

I seen you walking down the street with another girl

Man I had to have it



I know it gets into your brain

Sometimes it dribbles and goes in your veins

I tell you this boys is the same

This boy's got bad habits



You and I should meet

You and I we should get together

You and i, you know we should meet

Hey babe, check it out the stormy weather



Bad habits

I got bad habits

I got bad habits


JOHN DENVER lyrics - Home On The Range



Oh, give me a home where the buffalo roam

Where the deer and the antelope play

Where seldom is heard a discouraging word

And the skies are not cloudy all day



Home, home on the range

Where the deer and the antelope play

Where seldom is heard a discouraging word

And the skies are not cloudy all day



The red man was pressed from this part of the west

It's not likely he'll ever return

To the banks of Red River where seldom if ever

His flickering campfires still burn



Home, home on the range

Where the deer and the antelope play

Where seldom is heard a discouraging word

And the skies are not cloudy all day



How often at night when the heavens are bright

I see the light of those flickering stars

Have I laid there amazed and asked as I gazed

If their glory exceeds that of love



Home, home on the range

Where the deer and the antelope play

Where seldom is heard a discouraging word

And the skies are not cloudy all day


VAN MORRISON lyrics - Hungry For Your Love



(Van Morrison)



I'm hungry for your love

I'm hungry for your love

I'm hungry for your love

But I can wait now



I'm on the telephone

And I am all alone

I'm on the telephone

And we're connected



[Chorus:]

I got such a lot of love

I wanna give it to you

I got such a lot of love

I wanna give it to you

I got such a lot of love

I wanna give it to you



And though we're far apart

You are here in my heart

And though we're far apart

You're part of me now



And after all the years

And after all the tears

And after all the tears

There's just the truth now



[Chorus]



Well, I'm hungry for your love

Hungry for your love

Well, I'm hungry, yeah, well, I'm hungry

For your love now



I love you in buckskin, yeah, yeah

I love you in buckskin, yeah, yeah

I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you

I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you

I love you now



I'm hungry for your love

I'm hungry for your love

I'm hungry for your love

CARLY SIMON lyrics - Into White



(Cat Stevens)



I built my house from barley rice

Green pepper walls and water ice

Tables of paper wood, windows of light

And everything emptying into white.



A simple garden, with acres of sky

A Brown-haired dogmouse

If one dropped by

Yellow Delanie would sleep well at night

With everything emptying into white.



A sad Blue eyed drummer rehearses outside

A Black spider dancing on top of his eye

Red legged chicken stands ready to strike

And everything emptying into white.



I built my house from barley rice

Green pepper walls and water ice

And everything emptying into white


ASIA lyrics - End Of The World



(Wetton/Downes)



Buildings burning, blazing in the night

Searchlight sweeping, lazer beams of light

Desolation, smoke has filled the sky

Siren wailing, who can hear my cry?

So the darkness leaves me never



And the grinding wheels are turning ever

I believe that God is love, and that's enough

To keep the evil demon away

Don't say I don't matter at all I will stand or I'll fall,

You're the most important call that I make

When I face that verdict today

'Though it's Auto-da-Fe?,' I'll say it's really not

The End of the World



When I was young I was the golden son,

People said I was the chosen one

And I knew I must walk like a man

Never fail, and do the best I can



When I see that light come shining

When I feel the sacred spirit rising


NEIL YOUNG lyrics - Don't Be Denied



When I was a young boy,

My mama said to me

Your daddy's leavin' home today,

I think he's gone to stay.

We packed up all our bags

And drove out to Winnipeg.



When we got to Winnipeg

I checked in to school.

I wore white bucks on my feet,

When I learned the golden rule.

The punches came fast and hard

Lying on my back

in the school yard.



Don't be denied, don't be denied.

Don't be denied, don't be denied.

Don't be denied, don't be denied.



Well pretty soon I met a friend,

He played guitar.

We used to sit

on the steps at school

And dream of being stars.

We started a band,

We played all night.



Don't be denied, don't be denied.

Don't be denied, don't be denied.

Don't be denied, don't be denied.



Oh Canada

We played all night

I really hate to leave you now

But to stay just wouldn't be right.

Down in Hollywood

We played so good



The businessmen crowded around

They came to hear the golden sound

There we were on the Sunset Strip,

Playing our songs

for the highest bid.

We played all night

The price was right.



Don't be denied, don't be denied.

Don't be denied, don't be denied.

Don't be denied, don't be denied.



Well, all that glitters isn't gold

I know you've heard

that story told.

And I'm a pauper

in a naked disguise

A millionaire

through a business man's eyes.

Oh friend of mine

Don't be denied.

A-HA lyrics - Between Your Mama And Yourself



Hey listen honey

Something you should know

This can't wait

I've been meaning to tell you

A long time ago

And today's that day

I'll put it straight

No, it just can't wait



Oh sure, it took a little time

I know that's true

But this business

Been preying on my mind

Since I met you

The thing is babe,



Between your mama and yourself

Forced to choose and without help

With a margin, you know it's true

The one I love

Well, it's eh...prpbably you



C'mon now, stay a little while

Before you go

This thing, it's been preying on my

mind

But even so

This I know



Between your mama and yourself

Forced to choose and without help

With a margin, you know it's true

The one I love

Well, it's eh...prpbably you



You've got to know

It's got to show

Yeah, I've got to let her go


STEVE EARLE lyrics - Hometown Blues



(Steve Earle)



I wish I'd never come back home

It don't feel right since I've been grown

I can't find any of my old friends hangin' 'round

Won't nothin' bring you down like your hometown



I spent some time in New Orleans

I had to live on rice and beans

I hitched through Texas when the sun was beatin' down

Won't nothin' bring you down like your hometown



Home is where the heart is

Ain't that what they always say

My heart lies in broken pieces

Scattered along the way



So don't think about me when I'm gone

I don't mind travelin' alone

You are the sweetest little thing I ever found

Won't nothin' bring you down like your hometown


LORETTA LYNN lyrics - Alone With You



(Roy Drusky - Lester Vanadore)



How I love to be around you when the lonely night surrounds you

How I love to be alone with you

How I love to have the power to read your mind one hour

How I love to be alone with you

Just to be with you one night you and me alone

Kiss your lips and hold you tight have you for my own

This would be a joy unending could be a real beginning

How I love to be alone with you

[ ac. guitar ]

How I'd love to be around you when the lonely night surrounds you

How I love to be alone with you

If I only knew for certain I'd cut out all my flirtin'

How I love to be alone with you

Just to be with you one night...

How I love to be alone with you how I love to be alone with you

DAVID BOWIE lyrics - Ashes To Ashes



Do you remember a guy that's been

In such an early song

I've heard a rumour from Ground Control

Oh no, don't say it's true



They got a message

from the Action Man

"I'm happy, hope you're happy too

I've loved

all I've needed to love

Sordid details following"



The shrieking of nothing is killing

Just pictures of Jap girls

in synthesis and I

Ain't got no money and I ain't got no hair

But I'm hoping to kick but the planet it's glowing



[CHORUS]

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky

We know Major Tom's 4

a junkie

Strung out in heaven's high

Hitting an all-time low



Time and again I tell myself

I'll stay clean tonight

But the little green wheels are following me

Oh no, not again

I'm stuck with a valuable friend

"I'm happy, hope you're happy too"

One flash of light

but no smoking pistol



I never done good things

I never done bad things

I never did anything out of the blue,

Want an axe to break the ice

Wanna come down right now



[CHORUS]



My mother said

to get things done

You'd better not mess

with Major Tom


LOREENA MCKENNITT lyrics - The Old Ways



(Loreena McKennitt)



The thundering waves are calling me home to you

The pounding sea is calling me home to you



On a dark new year's night

On the west coast of Clare

I heard your voice singing

Your eyes danced the song

Your hands played the tune

T'was a vision before me.



We left the music behind and the dance carried on

As we stole away to the seashore

We smelt the brine, felt the wind in our hair

And with sadness you paused.



Suddenly I knew that you'd have to go

My world was not yours, your eyes told me so

Yet it was there I felt the crossroads of time

And I wondered why.



As we cast our gaze on the tumbling sea

A vision came o'er me

Of thundering hooves and beating wings

In clouds above.



As you turned to go I heard you call my name,

You were like a bird in a cage spreading its wings to fly

"The old ways are lost," you sang as you flew

And I wondered why.


BONFIRE lyrics - Hearts Bleed Their Own Blood



I remember - walkin' hand in hand - with you

I remember - drawing hearts in the sand - so true

But one fine day you've thrown it all away - 'nd left for another man

'nd sometimes truth hurts more than a lie - though it's hard to understand



CHORUS

Hearts beat their own beat

with every little teardrop from your eyes

Hearts bleed their own blood

'nd there ain't nothing's gonna cure a bleeding heart but love



I still miss you - even after all those years

'nd I still kiss you - in my dreams you're always here



No - I can't live without you baby - I guess you broke this heart of mine

Like a chord that weeps the minor way - it makes me wanna cry



CHORUS



I would do everything

to win you back again

and be there for you

I'd give my life for you baby

I still love you



CHORUS

MELISSA ETHERIDGE lyrics - Drag Me Away



Did you think that I was leaving

My ticket was just one way

The angels I believed in

Were gonna carry me away

Did you think that I would simply

Give them my last breath

Well honey you've got me wrong

I would never leave you for death



It's gonna take more than that to get rid of me

It's gonna take more than that to make me fade

They'll have to tie me up and drag me away

They'll have to shut my mouth and drag me away



There is no one I serve

I am not here to please

I will not be a hostage

To my own dis-ease

Come on out and hold me

Out into the great sunlight

No power on earth can stop us

We both become one tonight



I've never been more sure of anything

I've never been more sure of what I am

They'll have to tie me up and drag me away

They'll have to shut my mouth and drag me away

There is no dark that can over come a flame

There is no force that can

Drag me away



They could bring an army

Ten thousand men or more

Their mass weapons of destruction

Won't even up the score

Come on come on baby

They'll have to drag me away

They'll have to tie me up and drag me away

They'll have to shut my mouth and drag me away

There's no dark that can overcome a flame

There's no force that can drag me away


MEAT LOAF lyrics - Bad Attitude



They say you never come home,

boy you been drivin' too fast

When you gonna shape up,

how long is this gonna last



You may be laughin' today,

but listen to some good advice

An' take a look at tomorrow

in a workin' man's weary eyes



You gotta pick a career,

go for the gold

Smile for the camera,

do what you're told

Well you can take away the ladder 'cos I ain't gonna climb it

If there's a stairway to heaven I swear I'm gonna find it



Well there are winners and outlaws and leaders and lovers

Behind every man in the news

And one thing I know is behind everyone

there's a boy who had nothin' to lose

Behind every man who has somethin' to say

There's a boy who had nothin' to prove



An' every hero was once,

every villain was once

just a boy with a bad attitude



Every hero was once,

every villain was once

just a boy with a bad attitude



She says you never call,

how come you're actin' so tough

You either hold me too tight,

or you don't hold me enough



Don't be afraid of me angel,

I ain't about to clip your wings

Just put your feet on the ground

and your arms around the real thing



You gotta love me for keeps,

feather the nest

Plan for the future,

an' gimme your best

Boy we're never gonna have a normal family life

Steamin' up and down the speedway on the back a' your bike



Well there are winners and outlaws and leaders and lovers

Behind every man in the news

And one thing I know is behind everyone

there's a boy who had nothin' to lose

Behind every man who has somethin' to say

There's a boy who had nothin' to prove



An' every hero was once,

every villain was once

just a boy with a bad attitude



Every hero was once,

every villain was once

just a boy with a bad attitude



Bad attitude, you got us tearin' our hair

Such a bad attitude, boy you just don't seem to care



We try to lay down the rules, but you were born to refuse

What's the world gonna do with a boy like you



You got it bad, you got a bad attitude



You try to lay down the rules, well I was born to refuse

What's the world gonna do with a man like you



You got a bad -

no, you got a bad,

you got a bad -

ooh, you got a bad

You got a bad -

no, you got a bad,



You got a bad attitude



Every hero was once,

every villain was once

just a boy with a bad attitude



Every hero was once,

every villain was once just a boy -



Well there are winners and outlaws and leaders and lovers

Behind every man in the news

And one thing I know is behind everyone

there's a boy who had nothin' to lose

Behind every man who has somethin' to say

There's a boy who had nothin' to prove



An' every hero was once,

every villain was once

just a boy with a bad attitude



Every hero was once,

every villain was once

just a boy with a bad attitude



Oh, you got a bad,

ooh, you got a bad,

oh, you got a bad attitude



No, you got a bad,

you got a bad,

you got a bad attitude

ELTON JOHN lyrics - This Song Has No Title



Tune me in to the wild side of life

I'm an innocent young child sharp as a knife

Take me to the garretts where the artists have died

Show me the courtrooms where the judges have lied



Let me drink deeply from the water and the wine

Light coloured candles in dark dreary mines

Look in the mirror and stare at myself

And wonder if that's really me on the shelf



And each day I learn just a little bit more

I don't know why but I do know what for

If we're all going somewhere let's get there soon

Oh this song's got no title just words and a tune



Take me down alleys where the murders are done

In a vast high powered rocket to the core of the sun

Want to read books in the studies of men

Born on the breeze and die on the wind



If I was an artist who paints with his eyes

I'd study my subject and silently cry

Cry for my darkness to come down on me

For confusion to carry on turning the wheel

PRINCE lyrics - One Nite Alone



In a pale blue spotlite

A figure spins around a voice calls out 2 u,

"Baby...do you like the sound?"

The undulating acrobat ready 2 do ur bidding says,

"Come, U must let me dress u

But 1st I must do a fitting...

Do u like fast? Or do u like it slow?"



I know it's better if we make it up as we go...

And oh, by the way tell me now what's ur name?

I'll let it sweeten my tongue just once

And never speak it again

Since this is our little secret

Untarnished memory in a pale blue spotlite

Let me hear u scream, if u're ready 4...

One nite alone... with me


ERASURE lyrics - How Many Times?



(Clarke / Bell)



Love leave me alone, I've got troubles of my own

I do believe that I have paid the price

For all the things I've said and done

Every little thing that seemed to go wrong



How many times will I regret the chances taken?

And why do I end up always the one who is mistaken?



Love leave me to sleep, let me wallow in my dreams

See the icy past fade away

The dawning of a brand new day

The echoes of the past that still remind me



How many times will I regret the chances taken?

And why do I end up always the one who is mistaken?



How many times will I regret the chances taken?

And why do I end up always the one who is mistaken?



How many times will I regret the chances taken?

And why do I end up always the one who is mistaken?


STEPPENWOLF lyrics - In Hopes Of A Garden



In hopes of a garden

The scent of a smile

A long summer's day love

Quickly dissolves away



In hopes of a garden

The scent of a smile

A long summer's day love

We'll use our hopes as a place

We'll use our hopes as a place



Come with me

Come with me

Come with me


NEIL DIAMOND lyrics - Silent Night



Silent night, holy night

All is calm, all is bright

Round yon virgin mother and child

Holy infant so tender and mild,

Sleep in heavenly peace

Sleep in heavenly peace



Silent night, holy night

Shepherds quake at the sight,

Glories stream from heaven afar

Heavenly hosts sing alleluia

Christ the Savior, is born!

Christ the Savior, is born!



Silent night, holy night

Son of God, love's pure light

Radiant beams from thy holy face

With the dawn of redeeming grace

Jesus, Lord, at thy birth

Jesus, Lord, at thy birth



Silent night, holy night

All is calm, all is bright

Round yon virgin mother and child

Holy infant so tender and mild

Sleep in heavenly peace

Sleep in heavenly peace

MARK KNOPFLER lyrics - Stand Up Guy



Brew the coffee in a bucket

Double straight man and banjo

If you don't got the snake oil

Buster, you don't got a show

Who puts the doh-re-me

In our pockets

Keeps the party going on?

It's the man

Who sells the potions

I'm just one who plays the songs

Now they generally buys

The bigger size

They usually rub it in

I drank it once, it tasted

Like grease and paraffin

It's mostly alcohol, okay

You can't deny it's strong

We was going through the motions

'til the doctor came along



There stands the bottle

Ladies and gentlemen

All these bottles

Don't have to tell you, friends

These days miracles

Don't come falling from the sky

Raise your glasses to the doctor

To a stand up guy



When the monkeyshine is flying

And he's promising the cure

He says the french

For your lovesick blues

La maladie d'amour

He gets the chumps all laughing

But he gets a few to buy

Here's to beefsteak

When you're hungry

And whiskey when you're dry

Now the band'll blow their moolah

Like sailors gone ashore

Now we're going to west helena

To gamble, drink and whore

Let's you and me

All make whoopee

Here's mud in your eye

Here's to all the gals you ever want

And heaven when you die



There stands the bottle

Ladies and gentlemen

All these bottles

Don't have to tell you, friends

These days miracles

Don't come falling from the sky

Raise your glasses to the doctor

To a stand up guy



There's a big cheese with a cigar

Been sizing up the show

He wants to get the doctor

Pitching on the radio

I will make a switch to guitar

But the rules all still apply

They want to trust somebody

Yeah, they want a stand up guy



There stands the bottle

Here's to absent friends

All these bottles

Dead soldiers in the end

These days miracles

Don't come falling from the sky

Raise your glasses to the doctor

To a stand up guy

To the doctor

A stand up guy


EMMYLOU HARRIS lyrics - A River For Him



(Emmylou Harris)



I crossed on the river

There'll be no returning

I crossed all the bridges

I watched them all burning

And now I'm a stranger

To a strange land I'm driven

Where all is forgotten

And nothing's forgiven



But I cried a river

A river for him

That's deeper and wider

Than I'll ever swim

The heart it will harden

The sorrow will dim

But I cried a river

A river for him



I think of him now

On the road I am taking

And wonder how long

His heart will be breaking

But he'll never hear when

The teardrops are falling

Or the sound of my voice

And the name I'm calling



But I cried a river

A river for him

That's deeper and wider

Than I'll ever swim

The heart it will harden

The sorrow will dim

But I cried a river

A river for him



So sweep for the sons

And the dear darling daughters

For the passing of time

And the parting of waters

For all who have passed through

This world long before me

To a far distant shore line

Where no one waits for me

But I cried a river

A river for him

That's deeper and wider

Than I'll ever swim

The heart it will harden

The sorrow will dim

But I cried a river

A river for him


THE PROCLAIMERS lyrics - Teardrops



Teardrops running down your face

Teardrops running down your face

Diamonds of water, and salt from your body

Coming down to meet my kisses



Teardrops running down your face

Teardrops running down your face

Staining your skin and my skin and beginning

The stories that you can't begin

The way I feel could be despised but its a vision that I prize

Teardrops Teardrops

I'm not trying to make you feel pain

Or joy to make the tears flow

But when they roll unashamed - they move me so



Teardrops running down you, face

Teardrops running down you, face

Let me, let me brush them with my fingers

Comfort you and say its alright

It's so strong this way I feel sometimes I want to beg or steal

Teardrops Teardrops.


BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST lyrics - Victims Of Circumstance



Saw the paper the other day

Started to read

Seems they've got a new way

Of fighting all their wars

Just what we need

When will you stop playing all your games?

Won't you listen when we say

I don't remember anyone asking me about it

Or don't we matter anyway?

Victims of circumstance that's what we are

Hidden from light so we can't see

Victims of circumstance that's what we are

You and me, you and me



Those mistakes that you all made in the past

You never seem to see

Do you have to bring your ships across the water?

Please let us be

Master, master, I really want to live!

Do we always have to plead?

Looks like you've put us in the frontline once again

Won't you stop this insanity?



Victims of circumstance that's what we are

Hidden from light so we can't see

Victims of circumstance that's what we are

You and me, you and me

SADE lyrics - Mr. Wrong



He don't care

Where he's been playing

He doesn't hear

A word she's saying

She's a fancy girl

So why's she staying

Hanging on for mr. wrong

He doesn't show her that he needs her

She doesn't know his love's a liar

She'a a fancy girl - got to be strong

Say so long - mr. wrong



Get out on your own girl

Show him how

You can be strong girl

You don't need him now

Run away, pretty girl

Say so long - mr. wrong



Run away

Bye bye


THE DEAD KENNEDYS lyrics - Soup Is Good Food



We're sorry

But you're no longer needed

Or wanted

Or even cared about here

Machines can do a better job than you

This is what you get for asking questions



The unions agree

'Sacrifices must be made'

Computers never go on strike

To save the working man you've got to put him out to pasture



Looks like we'll have to let you go

Doesn't it feel fulfilling to know

That you-the human being-are now obsolete

And there's nothing in hell we'll let you do about it



[Chorus]

Soup is good food-(We don't need you any more)

You made a good meal-(We don't need you any more)

Now how do you feel-(We don't need you any more)

To be shit out our ass

And thrown in the cold like a piece of trash

We're sorry

You'll just have to leave

Unemployment runs out after just six weeks

How does it feel to be a budget cut?

You're snipped

You no longer exist



Your number's been purged from our central computer

So we can rig the facts

And sweep you under the rug

See our chart? Unemployment's going down

If that ruins your life that's your problem



Soup is Good Food, Etc.

We're sorry

We hate to interrupt

But it's against the law to jump off this bridge

You'll just have to kill yourself somewhere else

A tourist might see you

And we wouldn't want that



I'm just doing my job, you know

So say uncle

And we'll take you to the mental health zoo

Force feed you mind-melting chemicals

Til even the outside world looks great



In hi-tech science research labs

It costs too much to bury all the dead

The mutilated disease-injected

Surplus rats who can't be used anymore



So they're dumped (with no minister present)

In a spiraling corkscrew dispose-all unit

Ground into sludge and flushed away

Aw geez:.



Soup is good food

You made a good meal, etc:.

We know how much you'd like to die

We joke about it on our coffee breaks

But we're paid to force you to have a nice day

In the wonderful world we made just for you

"Poor Rats", we human rodents chuckle

At least we get a dignified cremation

At yet

At 6:00 tomorrow morning

It's time to get up and go to work


LED ZEPPELIN lyrics - Immigrant Song



Ah, ah,

We come from the land of the ice and snow,

From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.

The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands,

To fight the horde, singing and crying: Valhalla, I am coming!



On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore.



Ah, ah,

We come from the land of the ice and snow,

From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.

How soft your fields so green, can whisper tales of gore,

Of how we calmed the tides of war. We are your overlords.



On we sweep with threshing oar, Our only goal will be the western shore.



So now you'd better stop and rebuild all your ruins,

For peace and trust can win the day despite of all your losing.


JIMMY REED lyrics - Goin' Upside Your Head



(Jimmy Reed)



Yes, yes, yes, better believe what I said

If you don't straighten up, baby, honey,

I'm going upside your head



Yeah, you went out last night, and the night before

Tell you right now, baby, ain't gonna take it no more

Yes, yes, yes, better believe what I said



You think you so smart, babe, the mens all call you fine

You better have them to know, you mine, mine mine

Yes, yes, yes, better believe what I said



Bought you a... fo' 99.99,

Now you wanna mistreat me, baby, and [take on?] all the time

Yes, yes, yes, better believe what I said


RICHARD THOMPSON lyrics - Just The Motion



(Richard Thompson)



When you're rocked on the ocean, rocked up and down, don't worry

When you're spinning and turning round and around, don't worry

You're just feeling sea-sick, you're just feeling weak

Your mind is confused and you can't seem to speak

It's just the motion, it's just the motion



When the landlord is knocking and your job is losing, don't worry

And the baby needs rocking and your friends are confusing, don't worry

You're just feeling sea-sick, you're just feeling weak

Your mind is confused and you can't seem to speak

Oh, it's just the motion, it's just the motion



Blown by a hundred winds, knocked down a hundred times

Rescued and carried along. Beaten and half-dead and gone

And it's only the pain that's keeping you sane

And gives you a mind to travel on



Oh the motion won't leave you, won't let you remain, don't worry

It's a restless wind and a sleepless rain, don't worry

'Cause under the ocean at the bottom of the sea

You can't hear the storm, it's as peaceful as can be

It's just the motion, it's just the motion



Blown by a hundred winds, knocked down a hundred times

Rescued and carried along. Beaten and half-dead and gone

And it's only the pain that's keeping you sane

And gives you a mind to travel on



Oh the motion won't leave you, won't let you remain, don't worry

It's a restless wind and a sleepless rain, don't worry

'Cause under the ocean at the bottom of the sea

You can't hear the storm, it's as peaceful as can be

It's just the motion, it's just the motion

It's just the motion, it's just the motion

SARAH MCLACHLAN lyrics - U Want Me 2



You walk on by

Clueless and so high

Following your aimless path away from us

You're so far away

And what can I say

'Cause I can't be the one you wanted me to be



So tell me how do you feel

It's so confusing

If you let it all go, it'll fall apart

Do you want me to stay and say I still want you

You want me too, don't you?



So what are we saying

Our Eden's a failure

A made-up story to fit the picture-perfect world

The one with "I do", and I love you

And we are made for each other

Is forever over now?



And tell me how do you feel

It's so confusing

If you let it all go, it'll fall apart

Do you want me to stay and say I still want you

You want me too, don't you?



I hope there's forgiveness

In the distance between us

Can we make what lies ahead of us a better place to be?



So tell me, how do you feel

It's so confusing

If you let it all go, it'll fall apart

Do you want me to stay and say I still want you

You want me too, don't you?


THE MONKEES lyrics - Ticket On A Ferry Ride



(Jeff Barry and Bobby Bloom)



I got a ticket on a ferry ride.

I got a ticket and it hurts inside.

I wonder if she knows

That I don't really want to go, oh no

I still love her so.



I got a ticket on a ferry ride.

I got a ticket and it hurts inside.

I never though the day

Would come when I would say good bye this way

Wanted so to stay.



I got a ticket on a ferry ride.



I still love her so.

Don't really wanna go.



I got a ticket on a ferry ride.

I got a ticket and it hurts inside.

I wonder if she knows

That I don't really have to go, oh no

I still love her so.



I got a ticket on a ferry ride.

I got a ticket and it hurts inside.

I got a ticket on a ferry ride.

I got a ticket and it hurts inside.



I got a ticket on a ferry ride, ah.

I got a ticket on a ferry ride.

[Repeat]


GOO GOO DOLLS lyrics - Sex Maggot



Well I was hanging around the railway station

My mind was in the state of total degradation

Little boy blue came and blew his horn now

Scared those cows right out of the corn now

I hear you screaming but you can't come in

Cause I know, that you're just a sex maggot!



Mommy and daddy used to play this game now

Told me boys and girls are really all the same now

I don't know the difference at the age of twenty one

Who's telling me I don't like anyone



I hear you screaming but you can't come in

Cause I know, that you're just a sex maggot


REBA MCENTIRE lyrics - Make Me Feel Like A Woman Wants To Feel



(Dana Collins)



Open up your arms to me

Come and hold me tenderly

Let me know your love for me is real

And love me like there's no tomorrow

Share my joys and share my sorrow

Make me feel like a woman wants to feel



I know you love me cause you told me so

But that ain't enough cause I want to be shown

Make me feel like a woman wants to feel

And let me know you miss me when I'm not around

Go ahead and kiss me when I'm feeling down

Make me feel like a woman wants to feel



I know you love me cause you told me so

But that ain't enough cause I want to be shown

Make me feel like a woman wants to feel

And let me know you miss me when I'm not around

Go ahead and kiss me when I'm feeling down

Make me feel like a woman wants to feel



Love me like I want to be loved

Let me know I'm the one you dream of

Make me feel like a woman wants to feel

Make me feel like a woman wants to feel


LEONARD COHEN lyrics - Go No More A-Roving



(Words by Lord Byron, music by Leonard Cohen)



[Dedicated to Irving Layton]



So we'll go no more a-roving

So late into the night,

Though the heart be still as loving,

And the moon be still as bright.

For the sword outwears its sheath,

And the soul outwears the breast,

And the heart must pause to breathe,

And love itself have rest.

Though the night was made for loving,

And the day returns too soon,

Yet we'll go no more a-roving

By the light of the moon.


SARAH BRIGHTMAN lyrics - Why



Why, why don't we try

Like the wind we'll learn how to fly again

To reach heaven we'll drown our sorrows

Feel the fury coming down on you baby

Lying on a heart of a baby

Sitting in a vision of blue



Tell me why

Those innocent lies

Tell me why

The mystery

Of love is to live



Live and let live

Break the chains and try to forgive me now

For the fortune on the wings of an eagle

And our hearts lie in the hands of an angel



Dreaming on the wings of an eagle in yellow

Sitting on a moutain top



Tell me why...



Maybe you can try

Maybe I can try

Maybe they can try

Maybe we should try

Tell me why

MARVIN GAYE lyrics - The World Is Rated X



Oh the world's situation should be rated X, oh rated X

Said the world's situation should be rated X, yeah rated X

Listen people, let only in the movie show

Take a look outside, I swear the truth is really told

It's life in living color; fighting, killing, drug-dealing, it's everywhere

What about the crime? Rated X

What about the killing, fighting, stealing everywhere?

They let the children see life destroyed

But they won't let them see its making

What happened to God's creations?

The one thing that really bothers me the most

Is how we come, how we take the lives of the fold

The world today is in a grave situation

Dirty water we can't drink, dirty air, it's so unfair



Na na na... Oh I know something's missing all over the world

Ooo, rated X (several times over sax solo)

Oh I know something's missing all over the world



The world's situation should be rated X, rated X

The world's situation should be rated X, rated X

What about the crime? Rated X

What about the killing, fighting, stealing everywhere?

They let the children see life destroyed

But they won't let them see its making

What happened to God's creations?

Where're the wars, where's the peace?

Where's the joy, where's the woe for us all?

Love is kneelin', rated X

Hate is overweight, rated X

[...and fade]
