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]
