PULP lyrics - Down By The River
Take me down,
To the river,
Where I would not go before.
Through the trees and the rushes,
To a place we both know.
And I'm feeling much younger,
As I kneel on the ground,
Dip my toe in the water,
Of the river where I watched you drown
Nadadum nananana nana na...
Oh when the river ran dry that next year,
I could not find your body.
Now I'm standing here ready at last,
To dive down and reach you again.
And I long to be with you
Now these cold nights have come,
Oh I go down to the river,
But the river will stop for no-one.
Though I ask it it keeps flowing on,
When I ask it,
It tells me you're gone.
Dadow...
THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS lyrics - Hovering Sombrero
Hey hovering sombrero
Gently waving in the air above the meadow
Softly floating in the sky outside the window
Hovering sombrero don't be shy
Don't... don't be shy
Don't be... terrified
When you take yourself for granted
Feel rejected and unwanted
Know you're never just a hat
You're never only just a hat, you know
Hovering sombrero
Hovering sombrero
Time is flying like an arrow
And the clock hands go so fast they make the wind blow
And it makes the pages of the calender go flying out the window one by one
Til a hundred years are on the front lawn
And the old familiar things are mostly all gone
But the old sombrero just keep hovering on
Hovering sombrero hover on
Don't be burdened by regrets
Or make your failures an obsession
Or become embittered or possessed
By ruined hopes remember
When you take yourself for granted
Feel rejected and unwanted
Know you're never just a hat
You're never only just a hat, you know
Hovering sombrero
Hovering sombrero
JOAN ARMATRADING lyrics - You Made Your Bed
I say black
You say white
You do anything to be the one that's right
Go to extremes
Got to win
Still you're not happy
Just see the state you're in
You're never satisfied are you baby
Tell me what is driving you crazy
You're feeling something's wrong and you blame me
Well I just wanna say
It's your stupid mistake
I don't regret the time that we shared
But I do resent the martyr you play though
I'm the one who suffers more than my share of
All the hurt in this game
This mixed up game
Now you made your bed you can lie on it baby
I won't be there next to you
All of the great little pleasures that you bring
Get cancelled out by the weird things you do
Not Lucifer
Not the Trinity
No one on earth can make you feel at ease
It serves me right
Cos I left you once
I broke my own rule
Because I wanted to please
But you're never satisfied are you baby
Tell me what is driving you crazy
You're feeling something strong and you blame me
Well I just wanna say
It's your stupid mistake
Now you made your bed you can lie on it baby
I won't be there next to you
All of the great little pleasures that you bring
Get cancelled out by the weird things you do
You made your bed you can lie on it baby
I won't be there next to you
All of the great little pleasures that you bring
Get cancelled out by the weird things you do
Get cancelled out by the weird things
I say black
You say white
You do anything to be the one that's right
But you're never satisfied
I said you're never satisfied
Something is always driving you crazy
Something is driving you crazy
You made your bed you can lie on it
You made your bed you can lie on it
You made your bed you can lie on it baby
I won't be there next to you
You made your bed you can lie on it baby
I won't be there next to you
All of the great little pleasures that you bring
Get cancelled out by the weird things you do
You made your bed you can lie on it baby
I won't be there next to you
All of the great little pleasures that you bring
Get cancelled out by the weird things you do
EUROPE lyrics - Hero
It's not like I wouldn't dream
If you had not shown the way
It's not like I wouldn't fight
Not knowing 'bout your life
It's not like I wouldn't stand
Right here with my friends
You threw us all alive
When our days slipped away
You gave us of your time
'Cause you are my hero
My fridaynight
You wrote the soundtrack to my life
And gave me something
To hold on to
When i was growing up
You were the rock
In my life
It's not like I live my days
By every word you spoke
Like I'm up every night
Drinking with your ghost
It's not like I can't look back
Without movin' on
You threw us all alive
When our days slipped away
You gave us of your time
You are my hero
My fridaynight
You wrote the soundtrack to my life
And gave us kiss
A chance to dream
Days when I had enough
You were the rock
In my life
You still throw me that like
As my days slipp away
You give me of your time
You're still my hero
My fridaynight
You wrote the soundtrack to my life
You give me something
To hold on to
As I'm still growing up
You are the rock
In my life

GILBERT O'SULLIVAN lyrics - Mr. And Mrs. Regard
Congratulations everyone and two and three and four
You've really made my day for me
So here's what I've in store
An ounce of tea that will if we
Stir well turn into glue,
Should Mr. and Mrs. Regards
Send theirs with love to you.
Now Jonathan's a king you see
But then to some he's not
For in between his two front teeth
Is something I forgot
To tell you bout thirteen is out
As both boys disagree,
With Mr. and Mrs. Regards
Who send their best to me
I've been impatient far too long
So here's my plan
It begins with G and ends with my
Your room looks grand
Still that's alright
I'll not stay brigh
T In fact I'm likely to
Send Mr. and Mrs. Regards
My best with love from you.
GARY MOORE lyrics - Too Tired
Yeah!
I laid down last night, too tired to wake
I had a chill this morning, too tired to shake
I got a good poker hand, too tired to win
I can hear my baby knockin', too tired to let her in
I'm tired
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm tired
Too tired, too tired for anything
I'm too tired to walk
Too tired to run
I can hear my baby callin'
Too tired, too tired
I'm tired
Yes, I'm tired
I'm tired
I'm too tired for anything
Take over Albert, I'm too tired for this!
I'm tired of prospherity
I'm tired of luck
I'm sittin' on a pin
I'm too tired to get up
I'm tired
I declare I'm tired
I'm too tired
too tired for anything
Oh, Albert I'm tired
You better take over Albert
I'm too tired baby
NEW ORDER lyrics - Angel Dust
What shall I say
I fear you will betray me
How many ways
Can you prolong this tragedy
Who told you that I would be back
You came here to seize my freedom
I will send you falling slowly
To the earth I see below me
You never knew
With open arms I came to you
Judging me so safe to be with
Mistakes you made that you can't live with
What you get is what you need
When you watch the blood but you don't bleed
You make me feel like a masked delusion
A man whose life's became illusion
RUN-D. M.C. lyrics - Ragtime
I.. woke up this morning got ready to roll
Put on my green bomber it was, freezing cold
Applied longjohns with Adidas not matching
I called up Jam Master cause I knew he was scratching
(Whassup?) Jay to the telly music, loud as hell
He said - "Hold up Run," *DING DONG*, "it's the bell!"
Jay to the door as he leaves the cut
For his eyes a surprise, "D. M.C. WHASSUP?"
I need a little help Jay, I got a little problem
A guy like yourself, maybe you can help me solve em
I only want to know why this happens all the time
(What?) Everywhere I go, I start to rap and rhyme
I rock them in the day (yeah you rock em every night)
I rock em when I left so def I knew something was wrong (alright)
I rhyme when I am sleeping, I rhyme when I'm awake
When I was nine I said a rhyme by putting candles on my cake
I just came from the bank (you said a rhyme?) A rhyme so funny
A song about the line so long they all gave me their money
That's why I came to you, you're my friend (yes that is true)
Said maybe Jay knows what to say, he'll tell me what to do..
Hmmmm.. yo you go get Joe, and all the rhymes you made
And we'll go to the bank, AND WE CAN ALL GET PAID!
Cruisin down the block, in the sixty-six Olds
Girls are on the jock like the ride was a Rolls
Feelin kinda great, got change for the toll
Suckers gotta wait, that's your fate, poor soul
Heard you on the records and I heard you on the tapes
Stop, switch the conversation over to grapes, because
You're not bustin none, so stop fussin son
You're not down with Rush, they call us Russ and Run
Since that's the company, you won't be chumpin me
Here's the man, ask that fan (Run big brother D!)

GUNS 'N' ROSES lyrics - Shotgun Blues
I got the shotgun blues
Shotgun blues
I said I don't know what I did
But I know I gotta move
I got the shotgun blues
Shotgun blues
I can't wait here forever
I got too much here to lose
An now you're blowin' smoke
I think you're one big joke
Me...I gotta lot to learn
An I'm still waitin' for the heads to turn
You say I walk a line
Fuck they move it every time
You walk a mile in my shoes
And then you tell me 'bout singin' the blues
You get what you pay for
An freedom's real high priced
An while your rippin' off children
Somebody's fuckin' your wife
It's never made a difference
It's only how you survive
I got the shotgun blues
Shotgun blues
I said I don't know what I did
But I know I gotta move
I got the shotgun blues
Shotgun blues
I can't wait here forever
I got too much here to lose
An now you ask me why
I said it's do or die
I'll stick it right in your face
And then I'll put you in your motherfuckin' place
And you...you can suck my ass
An I think it's so low class
Me...I'm just so concerned
I'm still waitin' for your ass to burn
Ooooh you want a confrontation
I'll give you every fuckin' chance
With your verbal masturbation
Me...I just like to dance
How's that for provocation
I'm just makin' a stance
An I'm tired of the frustration
Of livin' inside of your lies
And I'm wired on indignation
I said somebody's got to die
I got the shotgun blues
Shotgun blues
I said I don't know what I did
But I know I gotta move
I got the shotgun blues
Shotgun blues
I can't stay here forever
I got too much here to lose
I got the shotgun blues
Shotgun blues
Listen motherfucker
You're about to pay your dues
I got the shotgun blues
Shotgun blues
If you're goin' up against me
Then you know you're gonna lose
I know
I know (there's ways - that we - can find)
I know
I know
You think anyone with an I. Q. over 15
Would believe your shit...fuckhead
Nothin' but a fuckin' pussy
RAY CHARLES lyrics - How To Win Friends And Influence People
Back home our girls are models of good behavior
You're taught you have to save your charms from the men.
In school, our girls are taught how to use discretion.
Each day we have a session from nine to ten.
We're taught the why and wherefore,
How and when~
When you talk
Don't talk, just sigh!
Get coy! Get shy!
That's how to win friends and influence people.
When you dance
Forget your feet!
Get close! Get sweet!
That's how to win friends and influence people.
Babes begin with
Yah! Yah! Yah!
Big girls win with
Yah! Yah! Yah!
But when you love
And find you're caught
You'll give no thought
To how to win friends and influence people.
Yah! Yah! Yah! Back home our girls are models of good behavior
You're taught you have to save your charms from the men.
In school, our girls are taught how to use discretion.
Each day we have a session from nine to ten.
We're taught the why and wherefore,
How and when
When you talk
Don't talk, just sigh!
Get coy! Get shy!
That's how to win friends and influence people.
When you dance
Forget your feet!
Get close! Get sweet!
That's how to win friends and influence people.
Babes begin with
Yah! Yah! Yah!
Big girls win with
Yah! Yah! Yah!
But when you love
And find you're caught
You'll give no thought
To how to win friends and influence people.
Yah! Yah! Yah!

GLORIA ESTEFAN lyrics - If We Were Lovers
One day soon
It's gonna happen just by chance
You and I
Will just succumb to this romance
On that day
My love will find you
And you'll discover
What a wonder life can be
And you will know
How much i love you
If We Were Lovers
If we were more than just good friends
I know how good it could be
Just by the way you're looking at me
As if we were lovers
If We Were Lovers
I've waited so long for that day
I think you feel the same way
You try so hard not to give it away
Afraid that i'll discover
What in your heart you know
Is meant to be
But darlin if you want it
To be me
To be the one to say
I want you
Then i'm telling you now
Gonna find a way somehow
To be your lover
To spend the whole night
Making love
Then find it's never enough
Just think what we are giving up
Every day that we're not lovers
Few times in our loves
Can we feel this way
It would be a shame
Just to throw it away
Time is slipping by
We don't know what's ahead
I don't want to look back
And have any regrets
How much i love you

Paul: Yeah, yeah, that's it.
John: Fade, fade!

VANESSA WILLIAMS lyrics - The Way That You Love
I've been waiting for this moment secretly,
Counting every minute, every hour till you're with me.
'Cause I know just what's in store
And now I'm in your arms, baby close the door
Why waste another minute, ooh let's get right to it
Baby turn the lights down, and we don't have to say a word
Unspoken pleasure there's no way to measure
How you make me feel when your near me and whisper softly...
So don't stop...
[Chorus:]
It's just the way you love me
(You know you drive me crazy)
It's just the way that you love
(You know you drive me crazy)
And it seems time flies whenever I'm in your arms
I like to savor every second, you thrill me with your charm.
Now I'm lost in the passion (moment, feelings, magic) we share
And when I look into your eyes, I know how much you care.
Don't wanna rush the feeling, couse loving you's so real and
I like the way you set the mood with, a little wine and candlelight
It's more than emotion, let's keep this fire going
Now we're lost inside our love (now we're drifting into love),
Sweet surrender is so tender.
[Chorus]
Ooh, you know me oh so well,
You always take your time, and you always get it right (you know just what I like).
Ooh, you set my soul on fire, and I know you've got my rhythm,
Cause then you take me higher,
[Chorus 3x]
Don't you stop, stop the love, you know you've the rhythm
Don't you stop, stop the love, you know you've the rhythm
PETE SEEGER lyrics - Of Time And Rivers Flowing
Of time and rivers flowing
The seasons make a song
And we who live beside her
Still try to sing along
Of rivers, fish, and men
And the season still a-coming
When she'll run clear again.
So many homeless sailors,
So many winds that blow
I asked the half blind scholars
Which way the currents flow
So cast your nets below
And the gods of moving waters
Will tell us all they know.
The circles of the planets
The circles of the moon
The circles of the atoms
All play a marching tune
And we who would join in
Can stand aside no longer
Not let us all begin.

SUZANNE VEGA lyrics - Penitent
Once I stood alone so proud
held myself above the crowd
now i am low on the ground.
From here i look around to see
what avenues belong to me
I can't tell what ive found.
Now what would You have me do
i ask you please?
I wait to hear.
The mother, and the matador,
the mystic, all were here before,
like me, to stare You down.
You appear without a face,
disappear, but leave your trace,
i feel your unseen frown.
Now what would you have me do
I ask you please?
i wait to hear
your voice,
the word,
you say.
i wait to see your sign
would i
obey?
I look for you in heathered moor,
the desert, and the ocean floor
how low does one heart go.
looking for your fingerprints
i find them in coincidence,
and make my faith to grow.
Forgive me all my blindnesses
my weakness and unkindnesses
as yet unbending still.
struggling so hard to see
my fist against eternity
and will you break my will?
Now what would you have me do
i ask you please?
i wait to hear
your voice,
the word
you say
i wait
to see your sign
could i
obey?
WHITNEY HOUSTON lyrics - A Song For You
I've been so many places in my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs I've made some bad rhyme
I've acted out my love in stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you
I know your image of me is what I hope to be
I've treated you unkindly but darling can't you see
There's no one more important to me
Daring can't you pease see through me
Cause we're alone now nd I'm singing this song for you
You taught me precious secrets of the truth withholding nothing
You came out in front and I was hiding
But now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding
I love you in place where there's no space or time
I love you for in my life you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
We were alone and I was singing this song for you

ELLA FITZGERALD lyrics - Out Of Nowhere
You came to me from out of nowhere,
you took my heart and found it free.
Wonderful dreams, wonderful schemes from nowhere
made every hour sweet as a flower for me.
If you should go back to your nowhere,
leaving me with a memory,
I'll always wait for your return out of nowhere,
hoping you'll bring your love to me.

BARBRA STREISAND lyrics - Never Give Up
I'm a mine of information
I'm a stranger to the cause
I been watchin' you watchin' me babe
But the words I had are lost
Just wanna go down to be found
Wanna rise up in your flat
I wanna be everything you need babe
And I'm begging you to say in my heart
A room with a view
There's only a fool there
I will never give up, never give up, never give up
I will never give up, never give up, never give up
I will follow you home
How can you turn me away
Did you ever get hungry or thirsty
With a dream to satisfy
You don't wanna be safe from being lonely
But you're throat is kinda dry
Did you ever get senseless or defenseless
An exception to the rule
Ain't nobody pushin' you but you're rushin' in
And I'm beggin' you to stay in my heart
Whatever it takes to make you belong there
I will never give up, never give up, never give up
I will never give up, never give up, never give up
Love knows no other way
Being together and hearing you say you'll be mine
You're my world
And I'll be forever yours
Did you ever get hungry or thirsty
With a dream to satisfy
You don't wanna be safe from bein' lonely
But you're throat is kinda dry
Did you ever get senseless or defenseless
An exception to the rule
Ain't nobody pushin you but you're rushin' in
And I'm beggin' you to stay in my heart
A room with a view
There's only a fool there
I will never give up, never give up, never give up
I will never give up, never give up, never give up
I will follow you home
How can you turn me away
I will never give up, never give up, never give up
I will never give up, never give up, never give up
I will follow you home
How can you turn me away

JOY DIVISION lyrics - Insight
Guess your dreams always end.
They don't rise up just descend,
But I don't care anymore,
I've lost the will to want more,
I'm not afraid not at all,
I watch them all as they fall,
But I remember when we were young.
Those with habits of waste,
Their sense of style and good taste,
Of making sure you were right,
Hey don't you know you were right?
I'm not afraid anymore,
I keep my eyes on the door,
But I remember...
Tears of sadness for you,
More upheaval for you,
Reflects a moment in time,
A special moment in time,
Yeah we wasted our time,
We didn't really have time,
But we remember when we were young.
And all God's angels beware,
And all you judges beware,
Sons of chance, take good care,
For all the people not there,
I'm not afraid anymore,
I'm not afraid anymore,
I'm not afraid anymore,
Oh, I'm not afraid anymore.
BILLY IDOL lyrics - Winter Wonderland
Sleigh bells ring, are you listening,
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight,
We're happy tonight,
Walking in a winter wonderland.
Gone away is the bluebird,
Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song,
As we go along,
Walking in a winter wonderland.
In the meadow we can build a snowman,
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say: Are you married?
We'll say: No man,
But you can do the job
When you're in town.
Later on, we'll conspire,
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid,
The plans that we've made,
Walking in a winter wonderland.
In the meadow we can build a snowman,
And pretend that he's a circus clown
We'll have lots of fun with mister snowman,
Until the other kids knock him down.
When it snows, ain't it thrilling,
Though your nose gets a chilling
We'll frolic and play, the Eskimo way,
Walking in a winter wonderland.
Walking in a winter wonderland,
Walking in a winter wonderland.
STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN lyrics - Tin Pan Alley
Went down to Tin Pan Alley....See what was going on
Things was too hot down there....Couldn't stay very long
Hey hey hey hey....Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
All the people down there....Livin' for their whisky, wine, and gin
I heard a woman scream....Yeah and I peeked through the door
Some cat was workin' on Annie with a....Lord with a two-by-four
Hey hey hey hey....Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
All the people down there....Livin' for their whisky, wine, and gin
I heard a pistol shoot....Yeah and it was a.44
Somebody killed a crap shooter cause he didn't....Shake, rattle, and roll
Hey hey hey hey....Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
All the people down there....Killin' for their whisky, wine, and gin
I saw a cop standin'....with his hand on his gun
Said "This is a raid boys....nobody run"
Hey, Hey, Hey....Alley's the roughest place I've ever been
Yeah they took me away from tin pan alley
And took me right back...to the pen
CAROLE KING lyrics - I'd Like To Know You Better
I'd like to know you better
There's so much about you I can see
There's a love as good as gold in you
I can feel it when I'm holding you
I want to be your friend, your lover
I'd like to know you better
Being with you feels so good to me
In a world of distraught humanity
You have brought me to my sanity
How lucky we are
We seem to get along so well
Whether or not we'll stay that way
It's much too early to tell
But I'd like to know you better
Though I already feel as if I do
Meeting you has been so good for me
And if only temporarily
I want to be your friend, your lover
Yes, I'd like to know you better

DEAN MARTIN lyrics - Let Me Love You Tonight
Let me love you tonight
Let me tell you how much I adore all your charms
Though you leave me tomorrow for this night we'll borrow a love song
Let me love you tonight
Let me thrill to the touch of your sheltering arms
Til the scent of the roses caresses and closes your eyes
Let me kiss you tonight
While the stars in the sky give a heavenly light
So when love is an ember my heart will remember this sight
Live a lifetime of love in a moment holding me tight
Then forget me darling only
Let me love you tonight
Live a lifetime of love in a moment holding me tight
Then forget me darling only
Let me love you tonight
Let me love you tonight
Let me love you tonight

BLUE OYSTER CULT lyrics - Stairway To The Stars
You can have my autograph
I think I'll sign it love to you
But should I sign it just for you
Stairway to the stars, I think I'll write good health to you
Stairway to the stars, we got better things to do
You can drive my motorcar
It's insured to thirty thou
Kill them all if you wish
Stairway to the stars, I think I'll write good health to you
Stairway to the stars, we got better things to do
You can have my autograph
I think I'll sign it good health to you
Upon the cast, your broken arm
Stairway to the stars, I think I'll write good health to you
Stairway to the stars, I hope you heal up real quick
Stairway to the stars...
Come on, let's get on outa here.
CHER lyrics - Thunderstorm
I could pass the evening here
Staring down into your eyes
Just forget there's a world somewhere outside
I kept my porch-light burning
So you could find my door
Felt so good to hear your footsteps
Walk across my bedroom floor
[Chorus:]
I knew that you were coming
By the thunderstorm last night
I swear I heard the north wind call your name
But a clear sky of blue stars
And the darling man you are
Makes it feel so good lying here next to you
This dusty town has needed rain
Like I've been needing you
So hold me tight as only you can do
By the light of just one candle
I feel your warm hands touching me
While our shadows move together
In the sweetest harmony
[Chorus x3]

DOLLY PARTON lyrics - Satin Sheets
(John E. Volinkaty)
Satin sheets to lie on
Satin pillows to cry on
Still I'm not happy don't you see
Big long Cadillacs, tailor maids upon my back
Still I want you to set me free
I've found another man
Who can give more than you can
Though you've given me everything that money can buy
But your money can't hold me tight
Like he does on a long long night
No, you didn't keep me satisfied
Satin sheets to lie on
Satin pillows to cry on
Still I'm not happy don't you see
Big long Cadillacs, tailor maids upon my back
Still I want you to set me free
Satin sheets to lie on
Satin pillows to cry on
Still I'm not happy don't you see
Big long Cadillacs, tailor maids upon my back
Still I want you to set me free
Satin sheets to lie on
ERIC CLAPTON lyrics - Lovin' You Lovin' Me
(Bonnie Bramlett and Eric Clapton)
I am so in love for once in my life.
In my dreams, I've known you many times before.
And I so want you to be my dear wife,
As only you can satisfy me any more,
And only you can love me more.
[Chorus:]
I'm lovin' you lovin' me lovin' you.
It's all the same; when loving, two together makes one.
Everybody sing la, la la la, la la la, la la la.
It's all the same, and we are one.
I will give you a world of your dreams if you want them.
I can feel the power when you're standing there.
Someone sent me you; oh lord, I will thank him,
And all the rest, it just don't matter,
And all the rest and all the rest.
[Chorus]
Loving you.
You know I love you.

STEPHEN STILLS lyrics - Treetop Flyer
I could be a rambler from the seven dials
I don't pay taxes 'cause I never file
I don't do business that don't make me smile
I love my aeroplane 'cause she's got style
I'm a treetop flyer
I'll fly any cargo, that you can pay to run the bush league pilots, they just can't get the job done
Got to fly down into the canyon, ya' don't ever see the sun
There's no such thing as an easy run
For a treetop flyer
I'm flyin' low, I'm in high demand
Go fifteen feet over the Rio Grande
I'll blow the mesquite right up of off the sand
Seldom seen, especially when I land
I'm a treetop flyer
Born Survivor
People been asking me, "Where'd you learn to fly that way?"
Ot was over in Vietnam, chasin' NVA
The government taught me, and they taught me right,
Stay down, under the treeline, you might be alright
Treetop flyer
So I'm comin' home, I'm runnin' low and fast
I promised my woman this is gonna be my last
I get the ship down, I tie her fast
Then some old boy walks up, and he says "Hey son" wanna' make some fast cash?
I'm a treetop flyer
Well there's things I am, and there's things I'm not
I am a smuggler and I could get shot
I aint going to die, I ain't goin' to get caught,
See I'm a flyin' fool, in an aeroplane that's just too hot
I'm a treetop flyer
Born survivor
I usually work alone
ZOOT lyrics - She's Alright
(Terry Britten)
I only know that there's something about you
You turn me on when I'm in and around you
I can't understand
Why nobody told you
That you're alright
Alright
You give me love anytime that I want it
I turn around you've already responded
Can't understand
Why nobody told you
That you're alright
Alright
I've got something and you've got something
And we've got something that's here to stay
Realizing that there's no surviving
Without a life full of love
Love
She's the girl that is one in a lifetime
And pretty soon I'll be making it wifetime
Can't understand
Why nobody told her that she's alright
Alright
I've got something and you've got something
And we've got something that's here to stay
Realizing that there's no surviving without a life full of love
Love
I only know that there's something about you
That turns me on when I am in and around you
Can't understand
Why nobody told you
You're alright
Yeah, you're alright
Alright
Yes you're alright
BEASTIE BOYS lyrics - High Plains Drifter
(Beastie Boys/Dust Bros.)
'Cause I'm a high plains drifter And I'm the drifter
The high plains drifter And I'm the drifter
They can't catch me never gonna find me
They're never gonna know that I'm the High Plains Drifter
Pulled over to the river to take a rest
Pulled out a pair of pliers and pulled the bullet out of my chest
Fear and loathing across the country listening to my 8 track
I reached behind the seat to snatch a cool one from the pack
A long distance from my girl and I'm talking on the cellular
She said that she was sorry and I said yeah the hell you were
Check the rear view mirror check the gold tooth display
Check the odometer and I was on my way
Cause I'm the high plains drifter the best that you can get
A strapped shoplifter a pirate on cassette
Bust a Travis Bickle when I feel that I'm getting pushed
Don't step to me 'cause you're gonna get mushed cinaster..
I'm doin' 120 plowing over mail boxes
Radar detector to tell me where the cops is
Spend another night at the Motel 6
It's five dollars extra get the porno flicks and then I..
Concoct a black and tan in my brandy snifter
I'm a kleptomaniac K-Mart shoplifter
Cash flow getting low so I had to pull a job
I found a nice place to visit but a better place to rob
I left my car outside and the engine still revvin'
Time to get busy (takin' care of business) at 7-Eleven
And then I went inside to make my withdrawal
I saw all that he had but I had to take it all
Knucklehead deli tried to gyp me on the price
So I clocked him off the turban with the bag of ice
'Cause I'm mellow like Jell-O cool like lemonade
I made my getaway and then I thought that I had it made
I feel like Steve McQueen a former movie star
Look in my rearview mirror seen a police car
Ballantine quarts with the puzzle on the cap
I couldn't help but notice I was caught in a speed trap
Dirty Mary Crazy Larry on the run from Dirty Harry
Stash the cash in the dash but my gun I did carry
I'm seeing blue and red flashing deep in the night
I got my alibi straight and I pulled over to the right
The cop knocked on my window and said Boy where's the fire
You've got a mailbox on your bumper and a bald front tire
"Outta the car longhair" your goose is cooked
Read me my rights fingerprinted and booked
Makin' like a D. T. driving a Gran Fury
Wherever I hang my hat's my home and my past is kind of blurry
Every dog will have its day and mine will be in front of a jury
I'm the High Plains Drifter you know I'm never in a hurry
Read me my rights as if I didn't know this
Threw me in the tank with the drunk called Otis
With his five o' clock shadow he smelled of 3-day old beer
My man turned to me and said why are you here?
I said I'm charmin' I'm dashing I'm rental car bashin'
Phony paper passing at Nix Check Cashing
I went before the judge he sent me to the Brooklyn House of D.
He said you behave or we'll throw away the key
Houdini'd out the cuffs I kicked the screw in the knee
I took the bailiff's wallet and went straight to O. T.B.
I had a good feeling easy come easy go
I bet on one horse to win and another just for show
And sure enough that nag came in
Brought my ticket to the window and collected my win
And then I broke into my new car with a wire coat hanger
Hot wired hot wheeled and "Suzy is a headbanger"
OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN lyrics - Rosewater
(Olivia Newton-John)
In my room where I used to sleep with you
Things have changed all that's left are the mem'ries of two
Two who loved and dreamed where the trees seem to whisper your name
But I don't like to go there 'cause Rosewater no longer feels the same
Through the glass the sun shows the marks on the wall
Seasons pass and you know how it looks in the fall
Here at my Rosewater the grass is a deeper green
And a calm surrounds her when love was here
The warmest place I've ever been
As I walk the echo of empty I hear and I feel that this house is not home
And now we're not here, it's lonely; the stairs seem to beckon me stay
But dreams are better treasured than slowly eaten away
Christmastime when snow filled your garden with white
And the moon's cold patterns on windows at night
Now you'll make a new home for people as hopeful as me
Harbour their dreams and their secrets
But don't ever, please, don't ever Rosewater, forget about me
Forget about me

SHOCKING BLUE lyrics - I've Spent My Money
(Robbie van Leeuwen)
Spent my money,
What can I do?
I feel so helpless
And I feel so blue.
Trouble is nobody who wants you to know
When you're down and out.
Spent my money,
Ev'rything went wrong,
Only bad love
Came along.
Trouble is nobody who wants you to know
When you're down and out.
Who could give me back my pride
And get me back and raise again?
Who could help me with all his mind?
I need somebody's help in hand.
Spent my money,
What can I do?
I feel so helpless
And I feel so blue.
Trouble is nobody who wants you to know
When you're down and out,
Down and out,
Down and out,
Down and out,
Down and out,
Down and out,
Down and out,
Down and out,
Down and out,
Down and out.
BLUE OYSTER CULT lyrics - Dragon Lady
(D. Roeser - B. Blotto)
Out of the smoke of the dawn of man
Out of the ocean across the sand
Reaching forth with an ancient hand
Dragon lady
Out of the flames of a man's desire
A hair raising voice from an evil choir
Raining down like a freezing fire
Dragon lady
She appears mysteriously
You don't take her seriously
Until you're under her spell
Chorus: Dragon lady takes you by the heart
Dragon lady takes you by the heart
You try to run but before you start
Dragon lady's got you by the heart
Dragon lady takes you by the heart
Dragon lady's got you she won't let go
Eternal lightning flashes across the sky
When the dragon lady shows you how to fly
Eternal lightning flashes across the sky
When the dragon lady shows you how to fly
Out of the cage in the center ring
Out of the crowd and straight to the king
Who's out of his mind with a mystical thing
Dragon lady
Out of the dream and into the night
A final look makes you die of fright
No one there in the candlelight
Dragon lady
She appears outragiously
You take her courageously
Until you're under her spell
Chorus:
Eternal lightning flashes across the sky
When the dragon lady shows you how to fly
Eternal lightning flashes across the sky
And the Dragon Lady's laughing as you cry...

BRENDA LEE lyrics - I Wish That I Could Hurt That Way Again
(R. VanHoy - D. Cook - C. Putman)
Oh I wish that I could hurt that way again
At least I had you every now and then
And in between the sorrow, at least there was tomorrow
And as long as there's tomorrow, there's no end
Oh, I wish that I could hurt that way again
Oh, I wish that we could play that game again
Even though I'd always lose, and you would win
At times you would desert me, the emptiness would hurt me
But your coming back was always worth the pain
Lord, I wish that I could hurt that way again
I'd love to hear you tell me, you don't need me anymore
Just like you used to tell me everyday
Oh--I've love to watch you leaving like a hundred times before
At least my eyes could see you walk away
Oh, I wish that I could hurt that way again
At least I had you every now and then
And in between the sorrow, I knew there was tomorrow
And as long as there's tomorrow, there's no end
Oh, I wish that I could hurt that way again
BARBRA STREISAND lyrics - Little Tin Soldier
Little tin soldier they gave you an innocent gun
And then they welded your hand in place
And then they put black paint in your eyes
They made you smaller than life-size
And they threw rocks at you
And chipped your pretty coat
When they knew you had to wear that coat forever
Little tin soldier they neglected to give you a tongue
They fixed your legs so you could not run
And then they put you in boxes and sold you
None of them ever wanted to hold you
They just set fire to you
And singed your gallant plume
And they made you lie in boxes all together
And from the tiny dark glass
Of all those tiny prisons
I can hear tin soldiers singing
With the silence of their fears
Let it not rain tomorrow
So they will stay outdoors
Let it not rain tomorrow
So they will stay outdoors
I can hear tin soldiers singing
With the silence of their fears
Don't let it rain tomorrow
So they will stay outdoors
Don't let it rain tomorrow
So they will stay outdoors
Let it not rain tomorrow
So they will stay outdoors
Don't let it rain tomorrow
So they will stay outdoors.....
BUDDY GUY lyrics - No Lie
(Buddy Guy)
I know you're getting sick and tired of me baby, this that I can plainly see
But deep from the bottom of my heart, baby, I know, you're hurting me
But just as sure, sure as you are born to die
But, baby, I love you, and you know, that's no lie
I'd rather fight a bear, baby, jump down in a lions den
Than to hear you keep on telling me baby that this is the end
But just as sure, baby, sure as you are born to die
But, baby, I love you, and you know, that's no lie
(Alright! Have mercy baby! Yes, yes, yes)
Yes, just look how you're doing me, baby, since you got up on your feet
You're going away to leave me, baby, I got this... without no meat
But just as sure, sure as you are born to die
But, baby, I love you, and you know, that's no lie
Oh yeah, baby
Somebody got to help me
JOHN (COUGAR) MELLENCAMP lyrics - Kid Inside
[Talking:]
(One time only, (gulp) if you don't
Get it right this time, tough shit, tough shit,
Everybody ready, tell me when, say when your
Rolling here, a one, a two, a one, two, three, die)
I press my face to the window
I ran my fingers through my hair
I watched my life go around in a circle
And I realized that no body but me cares
And I saw the hurt of my system
And I felt the madness of our faults conforming
And I walked around your house for hours
And I could feel that you had me in some kinda of stranglehold
And I don't know why you said those bad things about me
Well it must be the way of protecting some kind of crazy pride
Yeah you always direct your attention toward others
And look you know, it's so easy to see that my wounds have been open wide
[Chorus:]
And you can just kid the kid inside so many times
You can just kid the kid till he grabs you by the throat
And is choking your young ass blind
And you just kid the kid till you're walking on the tightrope in my my
Mind??
Yeah, you can just kid the kid inside so many times
Well it wasn't funny, no, when I was bleeding all over the table
Yeah, now as I recall, hey it wasn't funny at all
But you kept on laughing, huh, like it was some kind of party, yea
Your always looking to belittle someone to make you feel tall
Yea well, it's the same reaction in every situation
Do you really think it's so necessary to be so mean
Yeah, and it's hard for me to justify my position
Yeah, when everything that I'm saying can be said bad about Mr.
Springsteen, yea
[Chorus]
Yeah you know
Yeah, well I really really am the first to desire you??
And I feel so badly for his misery??
Well I'll don't throw five dollars, to get into the kitty??
And I'll bet my ass that this problem isn't me
Now now don't get me wrong wrong
Hey now don't you feel sorry, yeah
'Cause there's no one dead or alive that I'd rather be
And I've learned to deal with my mortal existence
And the moral is, now don't you go believe nothing that you can't see,
Yeah
[Chorus]
Yeah, and you can just kid the kid inside so many times, yea
(Ha ha ha, we'll keep it)

ACE lyrics - How Long
How long has this been goin' on
How long has this been goin' on
Well, if friends with their fancy persuasion
Don't admit that it's part of a scheme
But I can't help but have my suspicions
'Cause I ain't quite as dumb as I seem
And you said you was never intendin'
To break up our singing this way
But there ain't any use in pretendin'
It could happen to us any day
How long has this been goin' on
How long has this been goin' on
[Musical Interlude]
Oh, your friends with their fancy persuasion
Don't admit that it's part of a scheme
But I can't help but have my suspicion
'Cause I ain't quite as dumb as I seem
Oh, you said you was never intending
To break up our singing this way
But there ain't any use in pretendin'
It could happen to us any day
And how long has this been going on
How long has this been going on
How long
How long has this been going on
How long has this been going on
How long has this been going on
How long
How long has this been going on
GLENN HUGHES lyrics - Soulution
Bad kid, messin' with smart kid
What do you got? Looks like trouble
Easy on the oneside
The other's a wise ride
Seems to be confusion
Walk to the right
Walk to the left
Walkin' down midstreet, illusion
Slow down, the heat's on
Got to see delusion
Slow down, you talk too fast
Shut your mouth
What has to be done?
No confusion
No illusion
Changing fusion
It's called Soulution
Street light, bad sight
What do you got? Trouble
Waitin' on a inside, get you on the outside
Seems to be confusion
Step to the right
Step to the left
Walkin' down midstreet, illusion
Slow down, the heat's on
Got to see delusion
No confusion
No illusion
Changing fusion
It's called soulution
PETER, PAUL AND MARY lyrics - Tiny Sparrow
(Stookey/Mezzetti/Okun)
Come all ye fair and tender ladies,
Take warning how you court your men.
They're like the stars on a summer's mornin'
First they'll appear and then they're gone.
If I had known before I courted
what all his lyin' would have done
I'd have locked my heart in a box of golden
and never would have courted none.
I wish I were a tiny sparrow
and I had wings and I could fly.
I'd fly away to my own true lover
and all he'd ask I would deny.
Alas I'm not a tiny sparrow
I have not wings nor can I fly
And on this earth in grief and sorrow
I am bound until I die.
Come all ye fair and tender ladies
Take warning how you court your men.
They're like the stars on a summer's mornin'
First they'll appear and then they're gone.

BLONDIE lyrics - No Imagination
Eyes that tell me "Baby, you don't need no invitation"
Let me smoke another cigarette before I make a move
I can see me in the morning; losing my direction
Deep inside my overcoat, looking for the door
I don't wanna stay with you. I just wanna play with you
One sweet abbreviation sleeping like the dead
You think you're pretty, well, so do I. You came to me but, passion eyes
Got no imagination to clutter up my head
Eyes that mirror innocence and cannot sense the changes
Lets have another drink, dear, before we get deranged
I can see me in the morning; avoiding your detection
Slowly down the staircase, looking for the door
All is fair in love and war but I don't want your love no more
One sweet abbreviation sleeping like the dead
You're fragile and you're very green, conditioned by a milk machine
Got no imagination. Got no imagination. No
Take a walk, kid
Eyes that tell me "Baby, you don't need no invitation"
Let me smoke another cigarette before I make a move
I can see me in the morning; losing my direction
Deep inside my overcoat, footsteps for the door
ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA lyrics - Stranger On A Quiet Street
When all the thrills have been forgotten
The chill of night can call them home
And all the dreams that you left stranded
Will slowly start to come along
I felt it as she slipped away, slipped away
I didn't have the words to say
When I saw the stranger
A stranger on a quiet street
Stranger on a quiet street
You can go straight as an arrow
You can go straight as you dare
Walkin' the old straight and narrow
Don't always get you there
The sun was shining when I saw it all
She was moving to a different beat
When I met a stranger
A stranger on a quiet street
Stranger on a quiet street
It came to me out of the blue, out of the blue
There came the moment that I really knew
When I met a stranger
A stranger on a quiet street
Stranger on a quiet street
Stranger on a quiet street
Stranger on a quiet street
Stranger on a quiet street
Stranger on a quiet street
Stranger on a quiet street, on a quiet street
Stranger on a quiet street
Stranger on a quiet street
Stranger on a quiet street
CAROLE KING lyrics - Pleasant Valley Sunday
The local rock group down the street
Is trying hard to learn their song
Serenade the weekend squire
Who just came out to mow his lawn
Another Pleasant Valley Sunday
Charcoal burning everywhere
Rows of houses that are all the same
And no one seems to care
See Mrs. Gray
She's proud today
Because her roses are in bloom
Mr. Green
He's so serene
He's got a TV in every room
Another Pleasant Valley Sunday
Here in status symbol land
Mothers complain about how hard life is
And the kids just don't understand
Creature comfort goals
They only numb my soul and make it hard for me to see
My thoughts all seem to stray to places far away
I need a change of scenery
Another Pleasant Valley Sunday
Charcoal burning everywhere
Another Pleasant Valley Sunday
Here in status symbol land
Another Pleasant Valley Sunday
THE OFFSPRING lyrics - Way Down The Line
Nothing changes cause it's all the same
The world you get's the one you give away
It all just happens again
Way down the line
There is a chain that's never broken
You know the story it's sad but true
An angry man gets drunk and beats his kids
The same old way his drunken father did
What comes around well it goes around
Nothing changes cause it's all the same
The world you get's the one you give away
It all just happens again
Way down the line
At 17 Shannon is pregnant
As young as her mom when she had her
Her kid is never gonna have a dad
The same old way that Shannon never had
What comes around well it goes around
Nothing changes cause it's all the same
The world you get's the one you give away
It all just happens again
Way down the line
And all the things you learn when you're a kid
You'll fuck up just like your parents did
It all just happens again
Way down the line
And welfare moms have kids on welfare
And fat parents they have fat kids too
You know it's never gonna end
The same old cycle's gonna start again
What comes around well it goes around

ANTHRAX lyrics - Friggin' In The Riggin'
[Originally by Sex Pistols]
There was a bunch of roadies
And this here is their story
A scurvy bunch of evil twits
Who never say they're sorry
They've traveled cross the nations
Fuckin' paid vacations
We love the schism that they make
They're here for the duration
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
There was fuck all else to do
The captains name is Rick
Whose "Bozo-do" is slick
He really thinks he knows it all
He's just a Jersey hick
Wanking, cranking, Georgie
He always finds an orgy
He rubs his balls and picks his nose
He's horny Georgie porgie
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
There was fuck all else to do
The kind of sleaze is Ring
Polaroid's his thing
He whipped it out, her teeth fell out
And now it's in a sling
From LA we have Troy
His fetish is Playboy
A smelly trout, he'll eat it out
Go wash your hands you're M. O.I.
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
There was fuck all else to do
John Tempesta is The Joker
The Adams apple choker
Sandra Bernhard is his twin
He'd probably even poke her
The B-boy was John Rooney
He was a fuckin' loony
He does a rap, he thinks he's black
He's soft like Gerry Cooney
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
There was fuck all else to do
Yo my name is Bill
Dur, bouncing is my skill, duh,
Smoke ten packs and use my plaque
Duh, with my breath I'll kill
Thursby is the lard ass
The monitors are his task
The sound they made when the band played
Was like Ed Trunk with bad gas
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
There was fuck all else to do
The photobug is Ambo
He'll fill up any hairy hole
We'll blindfold you with dental floss
You burnt out fuckin' bimbo
The bottom line is Z
Oh please don't sit on me
Go wipe your hemorrhoid ridden butt
You 1960's hippie!
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
There was fuck all else to do
This here was the story
About our fuckin' roadies
A scurvy bunch of evil twits
Who never say they're sorry
They've traveled cross the nations
Fuckin' paid vacations
We love the schism that they make
They're here for the duration
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
There was fuck all else to do

Man, will your daughter take on me?
Well, I don't know, I don't know.
Oh man, will your daughter take on me?
I don't know, I don't know.
I don't know, boy, I don't know.
Well, I'm going down that Mississippi River,
Yes, I am, yes I am.
Well, I'm going down that Mississippi River,
Yes, I am, yes I am.

It'd stay on top
Her head was kinda flat
But her hair covered that
She was a fine girl
Didn't need no school
She was built like a mule
With a thong sandal
Well, wasn't no kinda job she could not handle
She could get down... wit de get down
All de way down
We need some more like dat, in dis kinda town
We need some more like dat, in dis kinda town
MANASSAS lyrics - Right Now
The last time I spoke to her
She couldn't talk to me
The script she read was very strange
But who did she see
A few lines from a bad dream
A frozen memory
Darkness remains the fate
Of such...illusion
Can you not wait
On what...can...be
Who was it cast the mold
The girl that I once knew
Such a carefully chosen pose
But what will the emptiness do
One of my best friends took her down
With his games for sure
Hearts made of stone
Cannot break again
I hope he understands
I hope he is secure
Old fashioned feelings
The new way of dealing
With love I see
These time were meant for me
No no no no no...
The past isn't anymore
The future only has in store
And round and round and round it goes
And where it stops nobody knows
As far as I can tell
The only game in town is going down
And only happens
In the right now

DANZIG lyrics - I Don't Mind The Pain
Remember to call my name
I adore it
If you call my name
I implore it
If with all these things we invoke here
Call you out our name
But be forwarned dear
I don't mind the pain
We hear you call our name
We adore it
Hear you all these things
That we invoke here
If you call our name
Rest assured dear
See you all these things
But be forwarned dear
I don't mind the pain
And I stay so arcane
In the shadows
Of your brain
Will I come to you
Again
Remember
I don't mind the pain
Hear you all call our name
Can you afford it
Racked
With all these things and beyond hope dear
Remember to call our name
And we assure you
Trip
With all these things that we invoke here
I don't mind the pain
BRENDA LEE lyrics - You Always Hurt The One You Love
(A. Roberts / D. Fisher)
You always hurt, you hurt the one you love
The one you shouldn't hurt at all
You always take, you take the sweetest rose
And crush it till the petals fall
You always break, you break the kindest heart
With a hasty word you can't recall
So if I broke your heart last night
It's because I love you I love you most of all
I said, you always break, you break the kindest heart
With a hasty word you can't, oh can't recall
So if I broke your heart last night
It's because I love you most of all
AC/DC lyrics - Playing With Girls
(A. Young / M. Young / B. Johnson)
Highball women that are, hot to touch
Legs do the talking, spelling out the lust
See the sugar daddies with a sweet tooth and smile
See what's hanging off him like a, wanting child
That's where you'll find me, standing proud
Playing with girls, gonna get you hot
Playing with guns, gonna get you shot
Playing with fire, gonna heat you up
Playing with me, you're gonna get the lot
Bring on the showgirls and the, debutantes
Late night waitress in a, restaurant
Heading for the clubs and bars, with the flashing lights
Looking for the good time girls in their black nylon tights
Over the barrel, bottoms up
Playing with girls, gonna get you hot
Playing with guns, gonna get you shot
Playing with fire, gonna heat you up
Playing with me, you're gonna get the lot
River run dry, yeah yeah playing with fire
Wild sweet child
Playing with girls, playing with girls
Playing, playing, playing with girls, playing with girls
I like tall girls but I'll take em small
I want em all up front, I like em all
I wanna see em' strut their stuff
And lose their social grace
You play your cards right and you'll deal yourself an ace
That's where you'll find me, standing proud
Playing with girls, playing with girls
Playing with girls, playing with girls
You got the long girl, short girl
Nothing but the bad girl
Just playing with girls
I want all the women in the world
PRINCE lyrics - Digital Garden
Love, like a rose in bloom
All of the Rainbow Children will feel it soon
2 the east, word traveled about this energy
Until it reached the Banished Ones
Who just wanted this love 2 cease
They now fallen in2
The Resistor's dream
And they built a Digital Garden
Or so it seemed
In this brilliant darkness
So-called angels of light
"Lies, lies, lies, lies, lies"
And all the Rainbow Children
Will stand and fight
4 everlasting, everlasting life
4 the one who sits on the right
4 Him we're willing to do the work
The Banished Ones approaching the palace shouted obscenities. They tried 2
confuse the Rainbow Children and dethron their king. Using the lies promoted
by the whosepapers, hellavisions, and scagazines - The Banished Ones
constructed a Digital Garden around the palace that extended throughout the
world. Furthermore they demanded compensation 4 their time spent in the
palace b4 the exile. This was noise! "So be it," said the Wise One, and
gladly obliged with an INVISIBLE DEED. The Banished Ones accepted and
returned to their place of birth in MendaCity. As 4 the Rainbow Children,
they began deconstructing the Digital Garden. Door to door they went in
search of those willing to do The Work
PAUL MCCARTNEY lyrics - Mamunia
Mamunia mamunia mamunia
Oh oh oh
Mamunia mamunia oh oh oh oh
The rain comes falling from the sky,
To fill the stream that fills the sea
And that's where life began for you and me
So the next time you see rain it ain't bad,
Don't complain it rains for you,
The next time you see l. a. rainclouds,
Don't complain it rains for you and me
Mamunia...
It might have been a bright blue day
But rainclouds had to come this way
They're watering everything that they can see.
A seed is waiting in the earth
For rain to come and give him free,
So the next time you see l. a. rainclouds
Don't complain, it rains for you.
So lay down your umbrellas
Strip off your plastic macs.
You've never felt the rain my friend,
Till you've felt it running down your back
So the next time you see rain, it ain't bad
Don't complain, it rains for you.
The next time you see l. a. rainclouds
Don't complain it rains for you and me.
Mamunia...
NINE INCH NAILS lyrics - The Fragile
She shines
In a world of ugliness
She matters
When everything is meaningless
Fragile
She doesn't see her beauty
She tries to get away
Sometimes
It's just that nothing seems worth saving
I can't watch her slip away
I wont let you fall apart
She reads the minds of all the people as they pass her by
Hoping someone can see
If I could fix myself I'd -
But it's too late for me
I wont let you fall apart
We'll find the perfect place to go where we can run and hide
I'll build a wall and we can keep them on the other side
...but they keep waiting
...and picking...
It's something I have to do
I was there, too
Before everything else
I was like you

PHISH lyrics - Talk
I can't talk my talk with you
Nothing's ever soaking through
The filter that surrounds your thoughts
And holds out lessons left untaught
I can't talk my talk with you
Nothing's ever soaking through
The filter that surrounds your thoughts
And holds out lessons left untaught
I can't talk my talk with you
I can't sing my song with you
Nothing's ever soaking through
The filter that surrounds your thoughts
And holds out lessons left untaught
I can't sing this song with you
Nothing's ever soaking through
The filter that surrounds your thoughts
And holds out lessons left untaught
I can't sing my song with you
I can't talk my talk with you
FRANK ZAPPA lyrics - Uncle Meat Film Excerpt Part II
[0:00]
Phyllis: I used to watch him eat, and while he was eating I would talk to him, and while he was eating I would ask him what he was doing, and all he would say was, "I'm using the chicken to measure it." Till this day I still don't know what he was talking about! That Minnesota Tishman, he was some guy, but I still never understood what he meant. The chicken to measure it, I don't know, probably some secret thing.
Phyllis: "I'm getting hot. You're really good at those dials, baby. You're the most manipulating person I've ever seen. What's he eating? Is he turning into a monster? Frank: But you're just making things out of it. Don: Put it in your mouth then your eyes. Frank: You're getting hot, come on! The last that. . . " I don't like this page, it's not so funny. . .

RUSH lyrics - In The Mood
Hey now, baby,
Well, I like your smile.
Won't you come and talk to me for a little while?
Well, you're makin' me crazy,
The way you roll them eyes.
Won't you come and sit with me? I'll tell you all my lies.
Chorus
Hey baby, it's a quarter to eight,
I feel I'm in the mood.
Hey baby, the hour is late,
I feel I've got to move.
Well, hey now, baby,
Don't you talk so fast.
I'm just tryin' to make these good times, I'm tryin' to make it last.
Everything's getting hazy.
Now honey, where'd you go?
I just want to find out, baby...where'd you learn what you know?
Chorus
Well, hey now, baby,
I said I like your style.
You really got me, baby, way down deep inside.
Ooh, you drive me crazy.
Baby, you're the one.
I just want to rock-and-roll you woman, until the night is gone.
Chorus
TOM WAITS lyrics - Lonely
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely eyes, lonely face, lonely lonely in your place.
Lonely, lonely, lonely eyes, lonely face, lonely lonely in your place.
I thought that I knew all that there was to, lonely, lonely, lonely...
Melanie Jane, won't feel the pain.
Lonely, lonely, lonely eyes, lonely eyes, lonely lonely in your place.
And I thought that I knew all that there was to
Lonely, lonely, lonely eyes, lonely eyes, lonely lonely in your place, and
I still love you, I still love you, lonely, lonely...
THE CURE lyrics - Jupiter Crash
She follows me down to the sound of the sea
Slips to the sand and stares up at me
"is this how it happens? is this how it feels?
Is this how a star falls?
Is this how a star falls?"
The night turns as I try to explain
Irresistable attraction and orbital plane
"or maybe it's more like a moth to a flame?"
She brushes my face with her smile
"forget about stars for a while... "
As she melts...
Meanwhile millions of miles away in space
The incoming comet brushes jupiter's face
And disappears away with barely a trace...
"was that it? was that the jupiter show?
It kinda wasn't quite what I'd hoped for you know... "
And pulling away she stands up slow
And round her the night turns
Round her the night turns...
Yeah that was it
That was the jupiter crash
Drawn too close and gone in a flash
Just a few bruises in the region of the splash...
She left to the sound of the sea
She just drifted away from me
So much for gravity...
J. J. CALE lyrics - Days Go By
(J. J. Cale)
When you light that funny cigarette
Would you pass it back to me
I'm feeling a little down and out
And it'll keep me company
I'm just a long lost sinner
Living life here on the line
I'll give it right back to you
I know it's not really mine
Now don't put it out, not right yet
It's burning pretty good
Maybe I'll have one more toke
You think I should
OO-oo, days go by
I just sit around and get real high
OO-oo, what a glow
I just hang out, they come and go
Hey, the walls are starting to move
The floor is way down there
What a buzz it is
There's electricity in the air
Boy, I'm feeling really gone
I'm feeling really cool
I think I'll have another one
I'm just another fool
You know they say it's illegal
But what isn't these days
No matter what you do
There'll be somebody on your case
OO-oo, days go by
It just seems like I sit around and get high
OO-oo, shame on me
They're going to put me in a penitentiary
I must not be together
Look at the shape I'm in
I just know people are saying
"He's looking awful thin"
I guess I can count my blessings
Though I've always been this way
I guess I'll quit tomorrow
Maybe another day
OO-oo, days go by
I guess I'll sit around and get real high
You know time has no absolute
It's a just seems like it's spent
Everything has a tendency to be so warped and bent
While looking here and there
I'm surprised to see
Everybody's gone here
Everybody's gone but me
OO-oo, days go by
I just sit around and get real high
OO-oo, what a glow
I just hang out, they come and go

THE NIPS lyrics - Nervous Wreck
I'm walking down the street with my head in my hands
Because I haven't got a penny to spare
I've no booze, no beer, no drink, no baby
It's drove me round the bend
I'm in a state of desperation
I can't take it baby
I'm just living like a nervous wreck
I think I'm going crazy
Well I've gotta get a pill just to make me feel good
It drove me out of my mind
The doctor says I'm a degeneration
Says I'm going blind
The doctor says I'm out of control
He's gonna put me in his army
I'm just living like a nervous wreck
I think I'm going barmy
He's just living like a nervous wreck
He thinks he's going barmy
Now I'm really out of my brain
They're kicking me out of this place
They're kicking me in the you-know-whats
They're kicking me in the face
I'm just living like a nervous wreck
I can't take it baby
I'm just living like a nervous wreck
I think I'm going crazy
I think I'm going crazy
I think I'm going crazy
I'm going crazy
I'm going crazy
You gotta get me to the shrink on time
Get me to the shrink on time
You gotta get me to the shrink on time
Cause I'm out of my mind!
REBA MCENTIRE lyrics - All This Time
(Tommy Lee James/Greg Guidry)
I remember the first time I held you all night long.
Well we're still here now.
But where have all the years gone?
Holding yu this way tonight.
It's easy to see why.
All this time.
We held on to each other.
We knew we had to be strong.
All this time.
Through the tears and the laughter.
It's still forever after all this time.
In the fast movin' world.
Love is made and just thrown away.
But we've always kept the promises that we made.
Who would of thought you and me?
Would still be here where we said we would be.
All this time.
We held on to each other.
We knew we had to be strong.
All this time.
Through the tears and the laughter.
It's still forever after all this time.
All this time.
We held on to each other.
We knew we had to be strong.
All this time.
Through the tears and the laughter.
It's still forever after all this time.
ISAAC HAYES lyrics - Rolling Down A Mountainside
Losers and winners
Everyone must play fair
All you beginners know
That you've got to start somewhere
(So) Whether you're saints or sinners
(Smile) Smile and share
(Sun) Sunlight as well as shadows
While you learn that everyone cares (Everyone cares)
Everyone out there (Everyone out there)
Has a cross to bear (Has a cross to bear)
And we'll never dare to live alone
`Cause we're not stones rolling down a mountainside
We all count and we've got strength and we got pride
`Cause God is on our side (God is on our side, God is on our side)
Mmm, hmm, God is on our side, hmm, hmm
Winners and losers
Fight when you know you're right
You'll get some bruises but
Some fool see the light
(So) So when you talk confused, yeah
(Keep) Keep your pride
(Smile) Smile and you'll make them listen
While you teach, then we'll be alright (We'll be alright)
Birds will stay in flight (Birds will stay in flight)
Day will follow night (Day will follow night)
So keep the truth in sight
But no, no, no
`Cause we're not stones rolling down a mountainside
We all count and we've got strength and we got pride
`Cause God is on our side (God is on our side, God is on our side),
Baby, girl
God is on our side (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I said (God is on our side, God is on our side) we're not stones,
No, no
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Hey, baby, hey (God is on our side, God is on our side)
Mmm, hmm, mmm, hmm (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
God is on our side (God is on our side, God is on our side)
Hey, we ain't stones, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no (Ooh, ooh,
Ooh)
Givers and takers (God is on our side), whoa, you heart breakers
(God is on our side)
We could break or make up, God is on our side, yeah
Come on, mmm...hmm...hmm...
Come on, yeah, yeah
Rolling down a mountainside
Rolling down a mountainside
Rolling down a mountainside
Rolling down a mountainside
Rolling down a mountainside
Rolling down a mountainside
SYD BARRETT lyrics - Octopus
(Barrett)
Trip to heave and ho, up down, to and fro'
You have no word
Trip, trip to a dream dragon
Hide your wings in a ghost tower
Sails cackling at every plate we break
Cracked by scattered needles
The little minute gong
Coughs and clears his throat
Madam you see before you stand
Hey ho, never be still
The old original favorite grand
Grasshoppers green Herbarian band
And the tune they play is "In Us Confide"
So trip to heave and ho, up down, to and fro'
You have no word
Please leave us here
Close our eyes to the octopus ride!
Isn't it good to be lost in the wood
Isn't it bad so quiet there, in the wood
Meant even less to me than I thought
With a honey plough of yellow prickly seeds
Clover honey pots and mystic shining feed...
Well, the madcap laughed at the man on the border
Hey ho, huff the Talbot
"Cheat" he cried shouting kangaroo
It's true in their tree they cried
Please leave us here
Close our eyes to the octopus ride!
The madcap laughed at the man on the border
Hey ho, huff the Talbot
The winds they blew and the leaves did wag
They'll never put me in their bag
The seas will reach and always seep
So high you go, so low you creep
The wind it blows in tropical heat
The drones they throng on mossy seats
The squeaking door will always squeak
Two up, two down we'll never meet
So merrily trip forgo my side
Please leave us here
Close our eyes to the octopus ride!

CHER lyrics - Come To Your Window
I'm leaving in the quiet early morning
When night has left the sky
Before the dew is dry
But it's not like it used to be
I'm leaving you this warning
You're gonna live to see the day
You long for me
Come to your window
It ain't too late to come
Into your side again
Don't make me believe you
Before you let me have
A chance to try again
Or I'll be gone before
You ever know you're losing me
I know I've made mistakes
That bought you sorrow
But baby, keep in mind
You're not right all the time
Don't let me go away
To face a new tomorrow
Back where you bought me from
When I was glad to come
[Chorus:]
Come to your window
Look down and see the teardrops
In my desperate eyes
Look how I need you
I got to find a way to make you realize
That you are casting out
The deepest love you'll ever know
Please don't close your ears
To what I'm saying
Before I ride away into the early day
I spent the lonesome evening hours praying
That you will change your mind
And try me one more time
Come to your window
Before our love comes crashing
Into pieces on the ground
Don't let it happen
I promise you this time
I'll never let you down
Give me a cause to come
To your lonesome arms again
[Chorus]
ZUCCHERO lyrics - Diamante (Versione Spagnola)
(Zucchero - De Gregori / Paez)
"A donde voy
Cuando algo va muriendo?
Donde cocinen buen pan
Y se viva en paz
Lluvia sere
Y lluvia tu seras
Mis ojos se aclararan
La nieve florecera
Aprenderemos a caminar
De nuestras manos a caminar
Domenica....
Te esperare, y en suenos me veras
Mas grande te parecere
Y tu mas grande seras
Nuevas distancias nos aproximaran
Del alto de un cielo, diamante
Nuestros ojos veran
Veran pasar velos de novia
La guerra se ira!
Bailando lento, buscando el alba
Multiplicando nuestras voces
El tiempo es fugaz!
Almas en paz, en la manana
Domenica.....
Fai piano i bimbi grandi non piangono
Fai piano i bimbi grandi non piangono
Fai piano i bimbi grandi non piangono
Veran pasar velos de novia
En la oscuridad!
Bailando lento, cancion del alba
Multiplicando nuestras voces
El tiempo es fugaz!
Alas en paz en la manana
Domenica......
"mo, Delmo vin a' ca""
DION AND THE BELMONTS lyrics - Donna The Prima Donna
Donna, Donna the Prima Donna
Broke my heart.
We're apart.
Thinks she's smart.
I met a girl a month ago
I thought that she would love me so.
But in time I realized.
She had a pair of roving eyes.
I remember the nights we dated,
Always acting sophisticated,
Talking about high society,
Then she tried to make a fool out of me.
They call her Donna, Donna the Prima Donna
Broke my heart now.
Thinks she's smart now.
We're apart now.
Pretty little girl you're just having fun
You're running all around and breaking lover's hearts.
Pretty little girl, I don't stand a chance,
Without any money there goes our romance.
She always wears charms, diamonds, pearls galore,
She buys them at the 5 & 10 cents store.
She wants to be just like Zsa Zsa Gabor,
Even though she's the girl next door.
They call her Donna, Donna the Prima Donna.
Broke my heart.
Thinks she's smart.
We're apart.
Pretty little girl you're just having fun,
You're running all around, you're breaking lover's hearts.
Pretty little girl, I don't stand a chance,
Without any money there goes our romance.
She always wears charms, diamonds, pearls galore,
She buys them at the 5 & 10 cents store.
She wants to be just like Zsa Zsa Gabor,
Even though she's Donna next door.
Donna, Donna the Prima Donna
