OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN lyrics - You Were Great, How Was I?
(J. Farrar/T. Snow)
I'll never learn
I cling to the past
I find so much there to lean on
But when I get lucky
I can even forget
Our now and forevers are gone
I know what you mean
I go there myself
When I feel the mood coming on
It comes on so easy
It's hard to believe
Our now and forevers are gone
When did we lose our starry eyes
The feeling's too strong to compromise
Something went wrong between hello and goodbye
Now it's too late
Love you were great, how was I?
I'm doing my best with somebody else
It's good to feel counted upon
It keeps me from sliding to where I forget
Our now and forevers are gone
When did we lose our starry eyes
The feeling's too strong to compromise
Something went wrong between hello and goodbye
Now it's too late
Love you were great, how was I?
ROSANNE CASH lyrics - This World
I read about this baby she got beat up by her dad
She was nine months old and he was a full grown man
She may have been learning how to crawl and he put a fist in her face
And the doctor said this baby's gone she can't be replaced
Now you read a lot of things in the daily news
But I'm laying awake at nights wondering what to do
I pray the Lord her soul to keep cause all down here are fast asleep
But I want to say this baby belongs to me and you
So we gotta wake up this baby belongs to me and you
[Guitar]
Everyday when I wake up in this world and it's spinning out of control
Who's at the wheel seems no one knows
We're all just like a baby frightened and so sad
Feeling beat up by someone who looks like dad
Now you read a lot of things...
So we gotta wake up this baby belongs to me and you
DAVID BOWIE lyrics - Saviour Machine
President Joe once had a dream
The world held his hand, gave their pledge
So he told them his scheme for a Saviour Machine
They called it the Prayer, its answer was law
Its logic stopped war, gave them food
How they adored till it cried in its boredom
'Please don't believe in me, please disagree with me
Life is too easy, a plague seems quite feasible now
or maybe a war, or I may kill you all
Don't let me stay, don't let me stay
My logic says burn so send me away
Your minds are too green, I despise all I've seen
You can't stake your lives on a Saviour Machine
I need you flying, and I'll show that dying
Is living beyond reason, sacred dimension of time
I perceive every sign, I can steal every mind
Don't let me stay, don't let me stay
My logic says burn so send me away
Your minds are too green, I despise all I've seen
You can't stake your lives on a Saviour Machine
BOB SEGER & THE SILVER BULLET BAND lyrics - West Of The Moon
Out on those trails
Out 'neath that sky
Rivers of old
Still rushing by
Eagles still soar
White mountains loom
Down in those valleys
West of the Moon
West of the stars
Far from the chase
Far from the crowds
Far from the pace
Horses run free
Winter comes soon
Out by those mountains
West of the Moon
And everywhere
Everywhere
Wild things are free
Free in the wind and the sun
Everywhere
Everywhere
As it should be
Left on their own while they run
Out by those mountains
West of the Moon

WEIRD AL YANKOVIC lyrics - Theme From Rocky XIII
Fat and weak, what a disgrace
Guess the champ got too lazy
Ain't gonna fly now, he's just takin' up space
Sold his gloves, threw his eggs down the drain
But he's no bum, he works down the street
He bought the neighborhood deli
Back on his feet, now he's choppin' up meat
Come inside, maybe you'll hear him say
Try the rye or the kaiser
They're on special tonight
If you want, you can have an appetizer
You might like our salami and the liver's all right
And they'd really go well with the rye
Or the kaiser
Never eats while on the job
He heard it's good to stay hungry
But he makes a pretty mean shish kabob
Have a taste, they were made fresh today
Try the rye or the kaiser or the wheat or the white
Maybe I can suggest an appetizer
Stay away from the tuna, it smells funny tonight
But you just can't go wrong with the rye
Or the kaiser
So today, his deli comes first
Still he dreams of his past days of glory
Goes in the back and beats up on the liverwurst
All the while you can still hear him say
It's the rye or the kaiser, it's the thrill of one bite
Let me please be your catering advisor
If you want substitutions I won't put up a fight
You can have your roast beef on the rye
Or the kaiser
The rye or the kaiser
The rye or the kaiser
The rye or the kaiser
JETHRO TULL lyrics - Astronomy
The middle lane has trapped my car
in red-light claustrophobia.
I slip the shackles, cut the rope ---
stand naked with a telescope
as the cat walks alone
under a big sky.
Against the dark so thin and white ---
gonna be a big sky night.
Miss Galileo, come with me
and view the new Astronomy.
Black hole dressing on salad plate ---
quasar at the kissing gate.
Now the cat, he walks alone
under a big sky.
Umbrella dome pin-pricked in lights ---
gonna be a big sky night.
My spectacles, my white lab coat ---
my coffee, thermos and my notes.
I pat my pockets. I got the keys
to the secrets of the observatory.
And closing the door,
I feel a new dawn
as the darker slides align ---
you to yours and me to mine.
And now you stand, assisting me ---
I can touch what I can see, see, see.
I look in wonder, I feel no shame ---
see the consequences of the game.
Expand the universe.
Head for the Big Bang.
Reach for my switch and shout ---
gonna turn the big sky out.
There's got to be astronomy.
Astronomy.
GLENN HUGHES lyrics - She Loves Your Money
Some girls are satisfied with ordinary wishes
They don't need a temple in Brazil
Some find communion with the politics of money
You found a girl who lives there still
Tell me...how love will never compromise
The pain we hold, with so many lies
Is it over now, with the setting sun
Was it all in vain, now you've come undone
She just loves your money
And you know she's got you running
In the land of milk and honey
No one sees her coming
Steal you blind and take your soul away
She just loves your money
Some days are innocent, some painted with persuasion
Sometimes you live in misery
Can you read the face you see, the one behind the mirror
A cold reflection of you and me
Tell me...how she could never leave your side
This faithful heart, so unsanctified
With eyes half closed, we refuse to see
With this jealous mind, never really free
She just loves your money
And you know she's got you running
In the land of milk and honey
No one sees her coming
Steal you blind and take your soul away
She just loves your money
You know how lovers come and go
You cry through too many memories
One day in a life, one day at a time
She'll break your heart in your state of mind
She just loves your money
And you know she's got you running
In the land of milk and honey
No one sees her coming
Steal you blind and take your soul away
She just loves your money
PETER, PAUL AND MARY lyrics - O Come, O Come Emmanuel
(New words & music by Stookey/DeCormier)
O come, o come, Emmanuel, and ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here until the Son of God appear.
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel.
O come, thou day spring, come and cheer our spirits by thine advent here
And drive away the gloomy clouds of night, forever death's dark shadows put to flight.
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel.
O come, O come, Emmanuel...
Come and ransom captive Israel
O come, thou key of David, come and open wide our heav'nly home.
Make safe the path that leads our hearts to thee, and close the door to misery.
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel
SONIC YOUTH lyrics - Skip Tracer
This she did in public for us to see
She came in here too drunk to do the show
Between the trains and cars
Broken glass and lost hub-caps, images of a gun
Row house row house pass through
Let the city rise up to fill the screen
Clothes flung out of closets, doorknobs falling off
The guitar guy played real good feedback, and super sounding riffs
With his mild mannered look on, yeah he was truly hip
The girl started out in red patent leather
Very I'm in a band with knee pads
We watch her fall over and lay down,
Shouting the poetic truths of high school journal keepers
Row house row house pass through, let the city rise up
Twister, dust buster, hospital bed, I'll see you, see you
See you on the highway
Now we're told so merge ideas, of song forms and freedom
Miss seafood, miss cheesecake, a couple of miss donuts
The edge of a blade pressed to the throat of your reflected image
Poised, yet totally screwed up
Yes sir, yes sir, step right up
None of us know, where we're trying to get to
What sort of live where we trying to build
Now we're told so merge ideas, of song forms and freedom
Seasons out of life, nothing is out of reach
L. A. is more confusing now, than anywhere I've ever been to
I'm from New York City, breath it out and let it in
Where are you now?
When your broken eyes are closed
Head in a cloudy dream, green and sailboats
Borrowed and never returned
Emotions, books, outlooks on life
Hello 20 15!
Hello, 20, 15!

RANDY NEWMAN lyrics - Northern Boy
Lord: In Ottawa, there is a custom
Before the boy becomes the man
He takes a drop of Northern courage
And swears he'll do the best he can
He swears he'll do the best he can
Devil: Oh Northern boy
As thick as a tree
As dull as a butterknife
L: Oh, Northern boy
Clean of limb, clear of eye
Unfettered he lives, unfettered he'll die
The Northern boy
Oh Northern boy Northern boy
Saskatchewan
Thy endless prairie
Where the buffalo used to roam
D: Only a man
Half blind on whisky
Would choose to make
This land his home
Would choose to make
This land his home
L: Oh Northern boy
As strong as an oak
As quick as thunderbolt
To adventure he'll rise
The Northern boy
Can be as gentle as a lamb
D: And just like a sheep he will follow you
Whenever he can
The Northern boy
L: The Northern boy
Oh Northern boy
BARBRA STREISAND lyrics - Stranger In A Strange Land
(Barry Gibb, Ashley Gibb & Stephen Gibb)
You may be someone else's sweetheart
Fighting someone else's war
And if you suffer for the millions
Then it's what you're fighting for
Someone believe in only light of day
Someone strong enough to show the way
Someone everyone believes in
Someone who will stand by you
And I will be your heart and mind
My love is on the line
I know is how I'm gonna stay
For a stranger in a strange land
Far away
And love will make your spirit shine
I feel your hand in mine
I write a letter every single day
To a stranger in a strange land
Far away
May we share the most tomorrows
I will hear you when you cry
Should we let it come between us
Never knowing how we live or die
I will walk you though the pouring rain
I will help you learn to live and love again
Give 'em hell before you go to heaven
By send you home again
And I will be your heart and mind
My love is on the line
I know it's how I'm gonna stay
To a stranger in a strange land
Far away
And somewhere in the lonely night
Your flame is burning bright
I know it's how I'm gonna stay
To a stranger in a strange land
Far away
And just to see your spirit shine
To feel your hand in mine
I write a letter every single day
To a stranger in a strange land
Far away
Ooh...
Far away
Oh...Far away...
Ooh...
RENAISSANCE lyrics - The Body Machine
Is it right that it should be this good
I'm feeling changes all the time
A special kind of beat I feel
Makes my pulse race, makes me reel
It spins me round and upside down, I feel the power
The turning of my life is measured by the hour
You make my day
Lucky is as lucky does
And thanks to you I fell in love
I tumble down not knowing what I came here for
It seemed my plans were always kept behind closed doors
You hold the key and unlocked me
[Chorus 1:]
Is it that it should be this good
I'm feeling changes all the time
Early morning calls me back
I wake in another world that others seem so hard to find
Make the most of what you have
Dancing time in rhythm pulls
You keep supplying energy
You're the body machine
They wish they could be like you
A perfect balance rarely seen
It's a dream
You've waited for so very long
I took the chance I made you strong
I grow with you, you saw in me potential fire
And when I thought the peak was reached, you took me higher
You held the key that unlocks me
[Chorus 2:]
Is it right it should be this good
I'm feeling changes all the time
Early morning calls me back
I wake in another world that others seem so hard to find
Make the most of what you have
Dancing time in rhythm pulls
You keep supplying energy
You're the body machine
They wish they could be like you
A perfect balance rarely seen
It's a dream
[Chorus 3:]
Is it fine it should be this good
I'm feeling changes all the time
Early morning calls me back
I wake in another world that others seem so hard to find
Make the most of what you have
Dancing time in rhythm pulls
You keep supplying energy
You're the body machine
They wish they could be like you
A perfect balance rarely seen
[Chorus 2]
Make the most of what you have
Dancing timel in rhythm pulls
You keep supplying energy
You're the body machine
They wish they could be like you
A perfect balance rarely seen
Is it right it should be this good
I'm feeling changes all the time...
GEORGE STRAIT lyrics - Winter Wonderland
Sleighbells ring, are you listening?
In the land snow is glistening.
A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight,
Walking in the winter wonderland.
Gone away is the blue bird.
Here to stay is the new bird.
He sings a love song as we go along
Walking in the winter wonderland.
[Chorus:]
In the meadow we can build a snowman.
We'll 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.
We'll face unafraid the plans that we made
Walking in the winter wonderland.
[Chorus]
IGGY POP lyrics - Pumpin' For Jill
When I'm asleep, you touch my feet
You let me know that I am no creep
Because I love you, you are for real
I'm gonna stay here - pumping for Jill
In the gas station where I work
Everyone treats me just like a jerk
Nobody offers me a tip
I'm gonna stay here - pumping Jill's hips...
I met you out at the Mardi Gras
On a French Quarter sidewalk
When you kissed me, it was strong
I wonder if you'll hear this song
La da da da da da, da da da da...

KANSAS lyrics - Lightning's Hand
(Steve Walsh / Kerry Livgren)
Can you see me, do you know my position how quick is your eye?
I have no home, no reason to roam yet I travel the length of the sky
I stretch my fingers jagged icy white 'till my energy's all around
My clutch is swift, my force is fearful I convey it without a sound
I live to free the skies from everyone, watch me run - watch me
The north wind rises, old man's eyes wondering deeply as he locks his door
He knows the fear when I'm too near him, he's seen me angry before
The black intruding clouds approach as I release a destructive blow
All the crashing, all the flashing light brings terror upon my foe
I fight with force and power for my land
I command the lightning's hand!
Run for cover - Oh your life is in vain if you try to escape me
Don't look back - Oh your wealthy world cannot save you
'Cause I'm gonna break you
I hear them moan, I hear them weep because they feel I belong to the devil
They feel the pain, and will again 'till they stop reaching up for this level
No one will defeat me, no one can
I command the lightning's hand!
BUFFALO SPRINGFIELD lyrics - Everybody's Wrong
Listen to my song
It isn't very long
You'll see before I'm gone
That everybody's wrong
Those of us who run
To catch a moment in the sun
Seem to find the when we're done
That we weren't supposed to run
And there's to many words going down
Babe wrecking against the walls with the hollow sound
All about what it's going to be
Yes, you know what it was you see
It ain't million, you and me not a crown
Finding what you sought
After all the time you fought
Sometimes leave's you with the thought
That perhaps you just been caught
And there's to many words going down
Babe wrecking against the walls with the hollow sound
All about what it's going to be
Yes, you know what it was you see
It ain't million, you and me not a crown
Finding what you sought
After all the time you fought
Sometimes leave's you with the thought
That perhaps you just been caught

BARBRA STREISAND lyrics - It Takes A Woman
[Vandergelder:]
It takes a woman all powdered and pink
To joyously clean out the drain in the sink
And it takes an angel with long golden lashes
And soft dresden fingers
For dumping the ashes
Yes it takes a woman
A dainty woman
A sweetheart, a mistress, a wife
Cornelius, Barnaby, & 2 customers:
O yes it takes a woman
A fragile woman
To bring you the sweet things in life
[Vandergelder:]
The frail young maiden who's constantly there
For washing and blueing and shoeing the mare
And it takes a female for setting the table
And weaving the Guernsey
And cleaning the stable
[All:]
O yes it takes a woman
A dainty woman
A sweetheart, a mistress, a wife
O yes it takes a woman
A fragile woman
To bring you the sweet things in life
And so she'll work until infinity
Three cheers for femininity
God bless femininity
[Vandergelder:]
And in the winter she'll shovel the ice
And lovingly set out the traps for the mice
She's a joy and treasure for practically speaking
To whom can you turn when the plumbing is leaking?
[Vandergelder, Cornelius, & Barnaby:]
To That dainty woman
That fragile woman
That sweetheart, that mistress, that wife
That womanly wife
O yes it takes a woman
[Vandergelder:]
A husky woman
[Vandergelder, Cornelius, & Barnaby:]
To bring you the sweet things in life!
[All:]
O Yes it takes a woman
A dainty woman
A sweetheart, a mistress, a wife
O yes it takes a woman, a fragile woman
To bring you the sweet things in life.
BRYAN ADAMS lyrics - That's Enough About You
Talking to you is like watching paint stay wet.
one way traffic is all I ever get.
I try to share my feelings but you're self obsessed.
I've had it up to here this thing's a mess.
I'm just trying to tell you that there has to be,
more to life than just me me me so hear this,
honey - I quit, we're through
listen to me - that's enough about you
You never did listen to a word I said,
dull over dinner and a bore in bed.
It's a no-win situation you just call collect,
was it too much to ask for a little repect?

IGGY POP lyrics - New Values
I'm healthy as a horse
Ahh, but everything is spinnin'
And if I use a gun I'm sure to go to prison
I'm stubborn as a mule
And nobody breaks my rules
Ahh, but nothin' comes my way.
I've got a hard-ass pair of shoulders
I've got a love you can't imagine
Yeah, and what I got I double
I swear I'm keepin' out of trouble.
I'm lookin' for one new value
I'm lookin' for one new value
But nothing comes my way.
We live in the same world..
We were young in the 20th century...
Ahh, but nothin' comes my way.
JOHNNY CASH lyrics - The Wall
Theres a lot of strange men in cell block ten
But the strangest of them all
Was a friend of mine who spent his time staring at the wall
Staring at thewall
As he stared at that wall so strong and tall
You could hear him softly curse nobody at all
Ever climbed that wall but i'm gona be the first
Yeah i'm gona be the first
The warden walked by and said son don't try
I'd hate to see you fall
For there is no doubt they'll carry you out
If you ever touch that wall
If you ever touch that wall
Well a years gone by since he made his try
But I can still recall
How hard he tried and the way he died
But he never made that wall
He never made that wall
Theres never been a man ever shook this can
But I know a man who tried
The newspapers called it a jail break plan
But I know it was suicide
I know it was suicide
JERMAINE JACKSON lyrics - Let's Get Serious
(Stevie Wonder and Lee Garrett)
Close my eyes and I see your face at night
Toss and turn, fall to sleep
Holding my pillow tight
All the time I think of you
You're with me no matter what I do
Walk around with a smile upon my face
In my mind you have taken up permanent space
I am feeling what I can't explain
And if what you're feeling is the same
Let's get serious
Let's get serious
Let's get serious
And fall in love
Let's get serious
Let's get serious
Let's get serious
And fall in love
S-E-R-I-O-U-S
Baby, let's get serious
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeaaaaah
[Instrumental Interlude]
In your arms is the place I want ta be
With my love
In you and your love
Inside of me
Longing for each other
Just ain't fair
When we've got so much
We want to share
Let's get serious
Let's get serious
Let's get serious
And fall in love
Let's get serious
Let's get serious
Let's get serious
And fall in love
Let's get serious
Let's get serious
Let's get serious
And fall in love
Let's get serious
Let's get serious
Let's get serious
And fall in love

BOSTON lyrics - Something About You
(Scholz)
When I was younger I thought I could stand on my own
It wasn't easy, I stood like a man made of stone
But there was something about you
I want you to know
It brought a change over me
It's startin' to show
I've got this feelin' inside
gotta have ya, have ya, ain't no good to hide
It isn't easy
To show what I'm feeling inside, girl
It isn't easy
I know, when you believe in a man like me
When I get angry I say things I don't wanna say
I really mean it, I don't want to leave you this way
I couldn't help my reaction
I want you to know
I lose control over you
I just wantcha to know
Got this feeling inside
gotta have ya, have ya, ain't no good to hide
It isn't easy
To show what I'm feeling inside, girl
It isn't easy
I k now, when you believe in a man like me
But there was something about you
I want you to know
It brought a change over me
It's startin' to show
I got this feelin' inside, gotta have you, have you
Ain't no good to hide.
It isn't easy
To show what I'm feeling inside, girl
It isn't easy
I know, to believe in a man like me
Like me, can'tch see
I gotta gotta have you
But there was something about
Yeah there was something about you.
THE KINKS lyrics - Living On A Thin Line
All the stories have been told
Of kings and days of old,
But there's no England now.
All the wars that were won and lost
Somehow don't seem to matter very much anymore.
All the lies we were told,
All the lies of the people running round,
They're castles have burned.
Now I see change,
But inside we're the same as we ever were.
Living on a thin line,
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
Living on a thin line,
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
Living on a thin line,
Living this way, each day is a dream.
What am I, what are we supposed to do?
Living on a thin line,
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
Now another century nearly gone,
What are we gonna leave for the young?
What we couldn't do, what we wouldn't do,
It's a crime, but does it matter?
Does it matter much, does it matter much to you?
Does it ever really matter?
Yes, it really, really matters.
Living on a thin line,
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
Living on a thin line,
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
Now another leader says
Break their hearts and break some heads.
Is there nothing we can say or do?
Blame the future on the past,
Always lost in blood and guts.
And when they're gone, it's me and you.
Living on a thin line,
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
Living on a thin line,
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
Living on a thin line.
IRVING BERLIN lyrics - Better Luck Next Time
[Verse:]
"For ev'ry rose that withers and dies
Another blooms in its stead
A new love waits to open its eyes
After the old love is dead"
That sounds all right in a careless rhyme
But there's seldom a second time
[Refrain:]
Better luck next time
That could never be
Because there ain't gonna be no next time for me
No, siree
Made up my mind to make another start
I've made my mind up but I can't make up my heart
I'd like a new lucky day
That would be nice
But this comes just once in a lifetime
Not twice
So don't say
Better luck next time
That can never be
Because there ain't gonna be no next time for me
THE EAGLES lyrics - Hole In The World
There's a hole in the world tonight
There's a cloud of fear and sorrow
There's a hole in the world tonight
Don't let there be a hole in the world tomorrow
They say that anger is just love disappointed
They say that love is just a state of mind
But all this fighting over who will be anointed
Oh, how can people be so blind?
There's a hole in the world tonight
There's a cloud of fear and sorrow
There's a hole in the world tonight
Don't let there be a hole in the world tomorrow
Oh, they tell me there's a place over yonder
Cool water running through the burning sand
Until we learn to love one another
We will never reach the promised land
There's a hole in the world tonight
There's a cloud of fear and sorrow
There's a hole in the world tonight
Don't let there be a hole in the world tomorrow

JANIS JOPLIN lyrics - I Need A Man To Love
Whoa, I need a man to love me.
Don't you understand me, baby?
Why, I need a man to love.
I gotta find him, I gotta have him like the air I breathe.
One lovin' man to understand can't be too much to need.
You know it
Can't be now
Oh no
Can't be now
Oh no
Can't be now
Oh no
Can't be now
Oh no
Can't be now
Oh no
Can't be this loneliness
Baby, surrounding me.
No, no, know it just can't be
No it just can't be
There's got to be some kind of answer.
No it just can't be
And everywhere I look, there's none around
No it just can't be
Whoa, it can't be
No it just can't be, oh no!
Whoa, hear me now.
Whoa, won't you let me hold you?
Honey, just close your eyes.
Whoa, won't you let me hold you, dear?
I want to just put my arms around ya, like the circles going 'round the sun.
And-a let me hold you daddy, at least until the morning comes.
Because it
Can't be now
Oh no
Can't be now
Oh no
Can't be now
Oh no
Can't be now
Oh no
Can't be now
Oh no
Can't be this loneliness
Baby, surrounding me.
No, no, no it just can't be.
No it just can't be
Oh, baby, baby, baby, baby, just can't be.
No, no, no
No it just can't be
And why can't anyone ever tell me, now?
No it just can't be
I wake up one morning, I realize
No it just can't be
Whoa, it can't be.
No it just can't be
Now go!
Whoa, I need a man to love me
Oh, maybe you can help me, please.
Why, I need a man to love.
But I believe that someday and somehow it's bound to come along
Because when all my dreams and all my plans just cannot turn out wrong.
You know it
Can't be now Oh no
Can't be now Oh no
Can't be now Oh no
Can't be now Oh no
Can't be now Oh no
Can't be just loneliness
Baby, surrounding me
No, no, no, it just can't be
No it just can't be
Oh, baby, baby, baby, baby, it just can't be
No it just can't be
And who could be foolin' me?
No it just can't be
I've got all this hurt inside
No it just can't be
Come, come, come on, come on, come on, and help me now.
No it just can't be
Please, can't you hear my cry?
No it just can't be
Whoa, help...

LORETTA LYNN AND CONWAY TWITTY lyrics - Get Some Loving Done
(Jimmy Peppers)
I gotta get up and get some loving done my life's so poor ain't been much fun
I found myself a woman and I know she's the one
And I gotta get up and get me some loving done
I've been doin' without a good thing much too long
But you taught me to sing a brand new song
When I look at me I see a brand new different me
Let's gonna get up and get some loving done
Yeah I've gotta get up...
[ guitar - fiddle ]
Well you know how to treat me like a woman
And satisfy my needs cause you're all man
When I look at you I see it all belongs to me
So I'm gonna get up and get some loving done
Get up and get some loving done our life's a gonna be a life more fun
Yeah I found myself a good man and he sure do turn me on
We're gonna get up and get some loving done get up and get some loving done
ELTON JOHN lyrics - Between Seventeen And Twenty
I wonder who's sleeping in your sheets tonight
Whose head rests upon the bed
Could it be a close friend I knew so well
Who seems to be so close to you instead
Close to you instead
I'm blue tonight, I'm red when I'm mad
I'm green when I'm jealous, yellow when I'm sad
I guess I cannot have everything
So much has flown between the years
When I was twenty and you were seventeen
So out of choice I chose rock and roll
But it pushed me to the limit everyday
It turned me into a gypsy, kept me away from home
From there on, there seemed no use for you
For you to stay
And if I shower around 3 a. m.
It's just to wash away
The trace of a love unwanted
Oh in the times I went astray
The times I went astray
So much has flown between the years
When I was twenty and you were seventeen

BESSIE SMITH lyrics - Frosty Morning
(E. Brown)
How come I'm blue as can be, how come I need sympathy
I know what's troubling me, listen and you'll see
Because the good man that I got, left me all alone
Woke up this morning at four, when I heard him slamming my door
Did you ever wake up on a frosty morning and discover your good man gone
Did you ever wake up on a frosty morning and discover your good man gone
If you did you'll understand, why I'm singing sad moanful songs
Well, he didn't provide and he wasn't handsome, so he might not appeal to you
Well, he didn't provide and he wasn't handsome, so he might not appeal to you
But he gave me plenty loving and I never had to beg him too
Now my damper is down and my fire ain't burning and a chill's all around my bed
My damper is down and my fire ain't burning and a chill's all around my bed
When you lose the man you love, then a gal is just as good as dead
THE CHURCH lyrics - Real Toggle Action
I wish that you could see yourself
I wish that you could be yourself
The things you try to do
They never benefit you
I wish that you could free yourself
You never stop to wonder why (oh no)
You're not a curious kind of guy
You got the deep space blues
You ought to change, here's a fuse
You're only happy when you're high
(High, high, high, high, be high, high)
I hoped that you could let it go
I hoped that you would come to know
We're actors in a play
Not even our own lines that we say
It's just that it's that kind of show
(High, high, high, high, be high, high)
[plus some melodic chanting]

CHRIS DE BURGH lyrics - Don't Look Back
Oh, there is a place where the wild men go,
When it's late at night and on the radio,
They're telling everybody, stay at home,
It's no time for you to be alone,
It is a place on the edge of town,
Just shining in a hell-fire light, (they're waiting,)
And if you're there, keep going on,
They're waiting deep inside, I'm telling you,
Don't look back, women in the red and black,
Don't look back, they're going to take your heart away,
I'm telling you don't look back, women in the red and black,
Don't look back, they're going to steal your heart away,
I should have known better;
Well Jimmy Pellin was a friend of mine,
But he went out there one too many times,
I saw him running down the railroad track,
And I tell you boys he ain't coming back,
The early morning is their favourite time,
To find somebody out on their own, (they're waiting,)
They're waving arms and flashing lights,
Standing out on the road, I'm telling you,
Don't look back, women in the red and black,
Don't look back, they're going to take your heart away,
I should have known better, I should have known better,
So if you're going to the edge of town,
Don't lose in a hell-fire light, (they're waiting,)
And if you're passing, keep going on,
They're waiting there tonight, I'm begging you,
Don't look back, don't look back,
I beg you don't look back,
Women in the red and black,
Don't look back, they're going to steal your heart away,
I should have known better - don't look back,
I should have known better - don't look back,
I should have known better - don't look back,
I should have known better - don't look back,
I should have known better.

STEVIE WONDER lyrics - God Bless The Child
Them that's got shall get
Them that's not shall lose
So the Bible said and it still is news
Mama may have, papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
Yes, the strong gets more
While the weak ones fade
Empty pockets don't ever make the grade
Mama may have, papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
Money, you've got lots of friends
Crowding round the door
When you're gone, spending ends
They don't come no more
Rich relations give
Crust of bread and such
You can help yourself
But don't take too much
Mama may have, papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
Mama may have, papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
He just worry 'bout nothin'
Cause he's got his own
UB40 lyrics - If It Happens Again
[Chorus:]
If it happens again I'm leaving
I'll pack my things and go
If it happens again
There'll be no looking back
I won't say I told you so
You did what you were told
And you took the strain
Been left out in the cold
Got yourself to blame
But believe me,
If it happens again I'm leaving
If it stays the same I'm gone
When you're stabbed in the back
And there's salt in the wound
The it's time to move along
[Chorus]
No more spanners in the works,
All the works been done
Had your face rubbed in the dirt
On show for every one
But believe me
If it happens again I'm leaving
If it stays the same I'm gone
When compromise is the song you sing
It's been going on to long
[Chorus]

SAMHAIN lyrics - Archangel
Go
Heaven sends me here to you
And if a-you fear you've reason to
Open up all seven seals
The beast is come to claim the youth
Archangel
Archangel
Defiant brood
Defiant brood
I call on you
Casted down my bretheren
Rebels from authority
Power, pride, contempt and lust
All these things I give to you
Archangel
Archangel
Defiant brood
Defiant brood
I call on you
I am not your son of God
The prince of light will show no fear
Mine is that which rules this world
The beast is come, I am the end
Archangel
Archangel
And when they cast out the brood
For the sin of pride misused
And when they cast down to Hell
Fucking brood
Archangel
Archangel
Heaven sends me here to you
And if a-you fear you've reason to
Open up all seven seals
The beast is come to claim the youth
Archangel
Archangel
Archangel
Archangel
Go

LUCINDA WILLIAMS lyrics - Abandoned
All of my love has been taken for granted
I've been fair but you've been underhanded
I've been disgraced but I can't bear to face it
Cause the truth is my heart has been abandoned
I was hoping for heaven but baby I ain't blind
This ain't the first time I've been undermined
Sad eyes and crooked smile that I remember well
Now it looks like all I got is time to kill
You can't fool me I see it in your eyes
You can't fool me I see it in your eyes
Everything I thought we had
Has all been cast aside
You can't fool me I see it in your eyes
These boots are the same boots I was wearing then
And this beer I'm drinkin is still the same old brand
But these blues are something new
They came around when I lost you
And it looks like I got stuck with an empty hand
You can't fool me I see it in your eyes
You can't fool me I see it in your eyes
Everything I thought we had
Has all been cast aside
You can't fool me I see it in your eyes
You can't fool me I see it in your eyes
PAUL MCCARTNEY lyrics - Every Night
Ev'ry night i just wanna go out,
Get out of my head.
Ev'ry day i don't wanna get up,
Get out of my bed.
Ev'ry night i want to play out
And ev'ry day i wanna do-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh.
But tonight i just wanna stay in
And be with you-oo,
And be with you.
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh,
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh.
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh,
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh.
Ev'ry day i lean on a lamp post,
I'm wasting my time.
Ev'ry night i lay on a pillow,
I'm resting my mind.
Ev'ry morning brings a new day
And ev'ry night that day is throuough.
But tonight i just wanna stay in
And be with you,
And be with you.
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh,
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, believe me, momma.
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, momma,
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh.
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh........
THE OFFSPRING lyrics - Stuff Is Messed Up
Now I don't know, and it's hard to explain
But it seems like things are just kind of insane
Because the world is crying
But nobody's listening
So please leave a message on my cell phone
I see bullets getting better
Biblical weather
And that guy on TV is like a total asshole
Who are you wearing tonight?
Celebrity fundraiser, tight!
Black ties making wrongs right
How's your social Band-Aid?
I don't know much
I don't know too much
But I know this
Shit is fucked up!
I guess it's all about the dream
The ends justify the means
You know it's all about the dream
The ends justify the means
Now thank god for the media, for saving the day
Putting it all into perspective in a responsible way
With more celebrity news
Typical bullshit views
I think we're losing this fight
Sponsored by Bud Light
And now we're rockin' the casbah
And taking the flak
The genie's out of the bottle, and we can't put it back
All this stuff
It's overwhelming my brain
Can you see the storm comin'?
It's coming this way
I don't know much
I don't know too much
But I know this
Shit is fucked up!
I guess it's all about the dream
The ends justify the means
You know it's all about the dream
The ends justify the means
Shopping Sprees, RPG's
Ecstasy
Atrophy
Genocide
Pimp my ride
Politize
Euphemize
Injustice everywhere
Apathy
I don't care
Hurricanes
Climate change
Huh!
Therapy, I won't tell
Rehab and LOL
Worldwide calamity
TV Reality
Euthanize, supersize
Death squads and boob jobs
VIP infamy
Gratify instantly
I don't know much
I don't know too much
I don't know much
I don't know too much

ERIC CLAPTON lyrics - Pearly Queen
(Steve Winwood and Jim Capaldi)
I had a strange dream from a pearly queen,
And she could drink more wine than I've ever seen.
She had some gypsy's blood flowing through her feet,
And when the time was right she said that I would meet
My destiny.
I traveled 'round the world to find the sun.
I couldn't stop myself from having fun,
But when the time was right, the flowers grew
But they were made of silk and sequins, two by two.
I traveled 'round the world to find the sun.
I couldn't stop myself from having fun.
But when the time was right, the flowers grew
But they were made of silk and sequins, I would meet
My destiny.

DIANNE REEVES lyrics - The First Five Chapters
Yesterdays... Yesterdays... Yesterdays
If you want to clap your hands it's okay
If you want to snap your fingers it's all right
Such a nice groove
For some nice folks
I want to tell you a story
About how I started out
I believe the year was 1976
When I decided to leave my home you see
It was time for me to go out into the world and to seek my fortune
I had a choice
I could either be starved and be cold
And move to the east
Or starve and be hot
So hot you see and move to the west
I picked LA
I wanna share with you the first five chapters of my life
Chapter One
I was walking down the street
With my head held high and my pockets filled with dreams
And I feel into a hole
I said to myself who put that hole there
Whoever put it there sure is mean
So I picked myself up out of the hole
Dusted myself off and went on my merry way
Chapter Two
I was walking down the same street
Feeling good
And I fell into a hole
I said to myself who put this hole there
Whoever put it there sure is mean
So I climbed up out of the hole and I dusted myself off went on my way
And remember thinking not everybody loves you like your mother
Chapter Three
I was walking down the same street
When I fell, oh yes I fell I tumbled hard this time
Down the same hole
I said to myself
I know this hole
I've been here before and I don't want to come back no more
So I picked myself up out of the hole
Dusted myself off
Said hole you ain't gonna get me no more
Well... Chapter 4
I was walking down the same street
I like to flurt with danger
That's my nature
But this time I saw the hole and I jumped over the hole
I said hole you won't get me no more
I kicked some dirt into the hole
Well now
That I learned how to live
I'm living what I learned
So I'm in chapter five right here right now
And I'm walking down a new street
Feelin' healthy
feelin' fine
feelin' prosperous oh the whole the world is mine
I take my time
do as I Please
Please when I want to
It sure feels good
They say life begins after that number and it sure does
Yesterday Yesterday Yesterdays
I love Yesterdays
Yesterdays
Now I'm thinking about today
ROD STEWART lyrics - Wonderful World
Don't know much about history
Don't know much biology
Don't know much about the science book
I don't know much about the French I took
But I do know that I love you
And I know that if you love me too
What a wonderful world this would be
Don't know much about geography
Don't know much trigonometry
Don't know much about algebra
I don't know what a slide rule is for
But I do know one and one is two
And if this one could be with you
What a wonderful world this would be
Now, I don't claim to be an A student
But I'm tryin' to be
For maybe by being an A student, baby
I can win your love for me
Don't know much about history
Don't know much biology
Don't know much about the science book
I don't know much about the French I took
But I do know that I love you
And I know that if you love me too
What a wonderful world this would be
But I do know that I love you
And I know that if you love me too
What a wonderful world this would be
But I do know that I love you
And I know that if you love me too
What a wonderful world this would be
JUDAS PRIEST lyrics - Turn On Your Light
Why do I have to wait so long
Before you come into my life again
Seems as though forever until
I can be here by your side till then
I think you feel the same way too
You know you make my dreams come true
If you'll just turn on your light
Let me see it shining through the night
When I'm far away from here
I'll hold all the memories so clear
If I only have the choice
I would stay so let me hear your voice
I think you feel the same way too
You know you make my dreams come true
If you'll just turn on your light
Let me see it shining through the night
SARAH BRIGHTMAN lyrics - Ave Maria

LUTHER VANDROSS lyrics - Take You Out
Yeah, yeah
Here it is
She caught me by surprised I must say
Cause I never have seen such a pretty face
With such a warm and beautiful smile
It wasn't hard for me to notice her style
I was fascinated, surely
She took my heart and held it for me
I wouldn't let her get away
Not until she heard me say
[Chorus:]
Excuse me miss
But what's your name
Where are you from and can I come
And possibly, can I take you out tonight
To a movie, to the park
I'll have you home before it's dark
So let me know, can I take you out tonight
Don't care if I get rejected
At least then I won't regret it
Regret the fact I missed the chance for romance
At least I'll walk away knowing
I tried my best and I'm going
I'm going on with my day
Cause at least she heard me say
[Chorus 2x]
That's why I had to come over
And introduce myself to you
Cause you're never gonna know
Where you'll find love, oh yeah
And hopefully I found it in you, yeah
[Chorus]
CAROLE KING lyrics - Dreamlike I Wander
Evening is falling - velvety black
Another day is over and you're still not back
Quarter moon is rising up over my head
With stars for companions and clouds for a bed
Dreamlike I wander through my life without you
I know that you wish me well - and I wish the same for you
But oh, y'know how I miss you
Your kiss, the touch of your hand
Why did you leave me
I just don't understand
Don't know every morning if the dawn's gray or gold
All I know is another night is over
And my bed is empty and cold
I can't forget you
Can't set myself free
I hope you find peace of mind
It's too late for me

LITA FORD lyrics - Bad Boy
7 o'clock and I'm hangin' here
Thinking where I'd rather be
The same ol' dive and the same ol' jerks
Are tryin' to take a piece of me
I think I need a hit, 'cause I'm sick of this shit
I guess there's only one thing I need
Hey there, sugar baby
Won't you come and rescue me
Be my bad boy
Be my love thing
Be my holy roller
When I can't get enough
I need my bad boy to shake me up
Gotta get out, I gotta get out
I get a little tired of the same ol' jive
I need a real hellcat to show me where it's at
And push me into overdrive
I gotta knack for destruction
With you it's all or nothin'
I guess there's only one thing I need
Hey there, sugar baby
Won't you come and rescue me
Be my bad boy
Be my love thing
Be my holy roller
When I can't get enough
I need my bad boy to shake me up
One kiss, one night
One touch, one bite
It's never too much
It's never too tight
No one else come close
To your perfection
No one else but me
Could be your resurrection
Hey there, sugar baby
Won't you come and rescue me
Be my bad boy
Be my bad boy
Be my love thing
Be my holy roller
When I can't get enough
Be my bad boy
Be my love thing
Be my holy roller
When I can't get enough
Be my bad boy
Be my bad boy
When I can't get enough
Be my bad boy...
LINDA RONSTADT lyrics - I Think It's Gonna Work Out Fine
(Rose Marie McCoy, Sylvia McKinney)
Darling, been to see the preacher man
Darling darling, started making wedding plans
Your lips set my soul on fire
To be with you that's my one desire
Oh darling
Think it's gonna work out fine
Darling, started getting next to me
Darling, though about how this could be

If your love is half as true
As the love I'm offering you
Oh darling, I think it's gonna work out fine
Think it's gonna work out fine
Know it's gonna work out fine
Think it's gonna work out fine
I'm so glad that you're mine all mine
Do you remember they used to call you Dapper Dan
Way back when I was the killer and everybody's loving man
Whole lotta women used to be my speed
Now pretty baby you're all I need
Oh darling, think it's gonna work out fine
He's so, I'm so, we're so glad when we remember
Used to call me Dapper Dan yeah
Way back when you were the killer and everybody's loving man
Whole lotta women used to be my speed
Now pretty baby you're all I need

You've got to think, think, work out fine
I think it's gonna work out
Yeah it's gonna work out
Know it's gonna work out fine
SAMHAIN lyrics - Lords Of The Left Hand
Left hand power of the pure
The world will tremble at our command
Left hand power of the lords
Builds upon our destiny
Destiny, take this land
Take this land by the death of man
Left hand triumph of the will
The world will whimper in our wake
At war with the planets
At war with all mankind
We will change the face of this earth
As our lord commands
In our holy quest for supremacy
Be our holy grail
Left hand power to take
What was ours from the day of birth
Left hand is grasping strong
It does not fear its destiny
At war with the planets
At war with all mankind
We will change the face of this earth
As our lord commands
In our holy quest for supremacy
Be our holy grail
Left hand, destiny
Left hand
At war with the planets
At war with all mankind
We will change the face of this earth
As our lord commands
In our holy quest for supremacy
Be our holy grail
HAWKWIND lyrics - Sword Of The East
A starless night
Older than death
The sand dunes of life
Hold their breath
My eyes are closed
Dreaming for you
The holy wars
Time will subdue
Hot desert winds
Never cease
Forgive their sins
Sword of the East
Your swords of steel
Have turned to guns
Your desert steed
Has been outrun
And now you hide
Under the night
To wait for dawn
To continue the fight
Hot desert winds
Never cease
Forgive their sins
Sword of the East
Hot desert wind
Never cease
Forgive their sins
Sword of the East
Gather up the fallen!
The children you bear
Are born into war
Their eyes of despair
Your generals ignore
So now you dream
Of mysterious lands
Warm blood of the past
Still flows in the sand
Hot desert winds
Never cease
Forgive their sins
Sword of the East

CHER lyrics - The Greatest Song I Ever Heard
Now the greenest green I've ever seen
Was the grass on which you laid
And the bluest blue was in my eyes
When you said you couldn't stay
And the biggest lost I ever took
Was losing what we've begun
And the greatest song I ever heard
Was the one we never sung
Now the reddest red I've always said
Is the sunset coming down
Soon the blackest night that kills the light
Is the only thing around
And the downest down I ever been
Is when I knew my race was run
And the greatest song I ever heard
Was the one we never sung
Time will kill the pain they say
And we'll live to love another day
If you wanna win you got to play the game
Now the greatest break came on the day
We were standing in the rain
And the hardest hurt I've ever know
Was when you tried to ease my pain
And the longest day in history
Waiting till my crying's done
And the saddest song I ever heard
Was the one we finally sung

RICKY NELSON lyrics - I'm Not Afraid
Love, they say, is serious
It's not a child's game
It can make or break your heart
But darling, all the same
I'm not afraid
No I'm not afraid
People tell me I'm too young
But I disagree
Love can come to anyone
And love has come to me
I'm not afraid
I'm not afraid as long as I know
That you'll always be with me
And as each tender kiss gets bold enough
Somehow I feel I'm old enough
Darling if you really care
And I'm sure you do
Take my hand and hold me tight
And make my dreams come true
I'm not afraid
No I'm not afraid
No I'm not afraid

THE SCORPIONS lyrics - Tease Me Please Me
(Matthias Jabs, Jim Vallance, Klaus Meine, Herman Rarebell, Jim Vallance)
I've been around the world
I've known a lot of girls
Livin' and lovin'
It's hard to keep them all in line
I've seen a lot of sights
Many crazy nights
Cruisin' and boozin'
It's a wonder that I'm still alive
Never wasted any time
Never missed a beat
Total satisfaction
Always guaranteed
Tease me
Please me
No one needs to know
Tease me
Please me
Before I have to go
Spead the world around
The boys are back in town
Reelin' and rockin'
We're rollin' with it win or lose
The girls are dressed to kill
Lookin' for a thrill
Slidin' and glidin'
Sometimes they make it hard to choose
I never wasted any time
Never missed a beat
Total satisfaction
Always guaranteed
Tease me
Please me
No one needs to know
Tease me
Please me
Before I have to go
Tease me
Please me
We'll take it nice and slow
Tease me
Please me
Just let the feeling grow

We could spend the night together
Come on baby what U say?

(Oh-we-oh-oooh)

(Oh-we-oh-oooh) {{repeated in the background}}
Everybody get way down,
Tonight we're gonna ball
Tonight we're gonna get the bomb, y'all
I'm talkin' 'bout the Detroit crawl
Everybody in the west
Everybody in the east
[Every man I'll injure]
With my chicken grease
Get with it
(one more)
(are you ready Paris - Soul Clap)
(ah yeah, ah yeah)
(gimme the bass, gimme the bass, one time)
Said the table 2 the chair
"You can hardly be aware
How I suffer from the heat
And from chillblains on my feet!
If we took a little walk
We might have a little talk!
Pray let us take the air!"
Said the table to the chair (can't nobody)
Said the chair to the table
"Now you know we are not able! (fuck with us)
How foolishly you talk
When you know we cannot walk!" (can't nobody)
Said the table with a sigh
"It can do no harm to try (fuck with us)
I've as many legs as you
Why can't we walk on two?" (say, can't nobody)
So they both went showly down (fuck with us)
And walked about the town
With a cheerful bumpy sound (can't nobody)
As they toddled round and round
And everybody cried
As they hastened to their side (fuck with us)
"See the table and the chair
Have come 2 take the air!" (y'all - say it y'all)
But in going down an alley
To a castle in the valley
They completely lost their way
And wandered all the day
Till, to see them safely back
They paid a ducky-quack
And a beetle and a mouse
Who took them to their house.
When they whispered to each other
"O delightful little brother! (can't nobody fuck with us)
What a lovely walk we've taken!
Let us dine on beans and bacon!"
So the ducky and the little browny - (say it, y'all)
mousey and the beetle dined,
And danced upon the heads
Till they toddled to their beds. (can't nobody fuck with us)
Good God [repeated in the background]
Revolution, baby way down low
beautiful night, y'all say it
beautiful night, y'all say it
say what a beautiful night, y'all say it
beautiful night, y'all say it
come on
(oh-we-oh-ooh)
say it
(oh-we-oh-ooh)
say it louder, y'all
(oh-we-oh-ooh)
say it louder, y'all
(oh-we-oh-ooh)
Miko, Miko, hit me in the back with funk
beautiful night, y'all say it
beautiful night, y'all say it
everbody feelin' alright, y'all say it
gonna be a beautiful night, y'all say it
everybody, (oh-we-oh-ooh, oh-we-oh-ooh)
say it (oh-we-oh-ooh, oh-we-oh-ooh)
say it (oh-we-oh-ooh, oh-we-oh-ooh)
(oh-we-oh-ooh, oh-we-oh-ooh)
get the horns in here
keep singin' y'all
everybody clap your hands
everybody clap your hands
everbody, groove, come on
Confusion!
Yeah!

B. B. KING lyrics - Ain't Nobody's Bizness
(Porter Grainger / Everett Robbins)
If I attend church all day Sunday, come back home and raise
(Spoken) I think I feel hurt or shall I go a little further, do a little more?
Ain't nobody's bizness what I do
If one day I have ham and bacon, and the next day, ain't nothin' shakin'
No it ain't nobody's bizness what I do
BARBRA STREISAND lyrics - Everything
[Performed by Barbra Streisand]
I want to learn what life is for
I don't want much, I just want more
Ask what I want and I will sing
I want everything (everything)
I'd cure the cold and the traffic jam
If there were floods, I'd give a damn
I'd never sleep, I'd only sing
Let me do everything (everything)
I'd like to plan a city, play the cello
Play at Monte Carlo, play Othello
Move into the White House, paint it yellow
Speak Portuguese and Dutch
And if it's not too much
I'd like to have the perfect twin
And who'd go out as I come in
I've got to grab the big brass ring
So I'll have everything (everything)
I'm like o child who's set free
At the fun fair
Every ride invites me and it's unfair
Saying that I only get my one share
Doesn't seem just
I could live as I must
If they'd give me the time to turn the tide
Give me the truth if once I lied
Give me the man Who's gonna bring
More of everything
Then I'll have everything
Everything

DONNA SUMMER lyrics - Crayons
Hey hey oh
Donna what's going on
1 2 3
[Chorus:]
We're like crayons melting in the sunshine
Take a big eraser and wipe out the line
Oh, oh what's up tell me what's a-happening
Say you want love but why ain't you sacrificing?
We're like crayons melting in the sunshine
I'll colour your world if you colour mine
Oh, oh what's up tell me what's a-happening
Say you want love but why ain't you sacrificing?
Come on over you sleepyhead
It's time to colour my dress in red
It don't matter if it's day or night
We play in colour not in black in white
Come on let's colour the world in green
Let's make a difference in the way we dream
We're going to colour a smiling face
On the people of the human race
123
I'll take a walk on the wild side
Don't be afraid you can be mine
In and out, in and out, in and out of the lines
Take a walk on the wild side
Don't be afraid you could be mine
In and out of the lines, in and out, in and out of the lines
[Chorus]
(Everybody dreaming)
If we mix in some pink and blue
We get a beating at a purple hue
Mellow yellow when the day is done
Becomes the orange of the setting sun
123 come on
I'll take a walk on the wild side
Don't be afraid you can be mine
In and out, in and out, in and out of the lines?
Take a walk on the wild side
Don't be afraid you could be mine
In and out of the lines, in and out, in and out of the lines
[Chorus]
Red is the colour of the blood in our veins oh
Like the rainbow we are one the same (just one yeah)
(Everybody dreaming)
Yellow is the colour of the sun we share
The green grass is everywhere
(Everybody dreaming)
[Chorus]
GEORGE MICHAEL lyrics - I Can't Make You Love Me
Turn Down The Light
Turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me
Tell me no lies
Just hold me close
Don't patronise
Don't patronise
'Cause i can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something that it won't
Here in the dark in these final hours
I will lay down my heart
And i feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause i can't make you love me if you don't
I'll close my eyes, then i won't see
The love you don't feel when you're holding me
Mornin' will come and i'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And i will give up this fight
'Cause i can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something that it won't
Here in the dark in these final hours
I will lay down my heart
And i feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause i can't make you love me if you don't
DOLLY PARTON lyrics - Just Because I'm A Woman
(Dolly Parton)
I can see you're disappointed
By the way you look at me
And I'm sorry that I'm not
The woman you thought I'd be
Yes, I've made my mistakes
But listen and understand
My mistakes are no worse than yours
Just because I'm a woman
So when you look at me
Don't feel sorry for yourself
Just think of all the shame
You might have brought somebody else
Just let me tell you this
Then we'll both know where we stand
My mistakes are no worse than yours
Just because I'm a woman
Now a man will take a good girl
And he'll ruin her reputation
But when he wants to marry
Well, that's a different situation
He'll just walk off and leave her
To do the best she can
While he looks for an angel
To wear his wedding band
Now I know that I'm no angel
If that's what you thought you'd found
I was just the victum of
A man that let me down
Yes, I've made my mistakes
But listen and understand
My mistakes are no worse than yours
Just because I'm a woman
No, my mistakes are no worse than yours
Just because I'm a woman

SYD BARRETT lyrics - Birdie Hop
(Barrett)
Birdie Hop - he do, he hop along
A lonely bird upon a window there
He, he, there he blow
A windy snow, he knew the snow,
I know the snow, a hoppy bird
The antelope ride around the parasol
Just to see if he's a man
Enough to meet you in the sandpit
On a flying kind of sign in a meddlesome way
You know the way - I see the flies
She's a little kite the sort
You think you might like to fly
And like a kite you get to see her
Every night, you know the way
She's only paving her way -
Hectochrome plane - I see the flies.
Birdie Hop - he do, he hop along
A lonely bird upon a window there
He, he, there he blow
A windy snow, he knew the snow,
I know the snow, a hoppy bird
A camel woke up to a polish dawn
Wouldn't look to see his feet had gone
He wouldn't like it
Wouldn't have the strength to fight it,
I see the flies
I'm the only bird, a little third,
I lost a quarter
Had a yearning to be earning just a dollar a day
In a way you shouldn't like it, hectochrome plane
I see the flies.

JONATHAN EDWARDS lyrics - Sunshine
Sunshine go away today
I don't feel much like dancin'
Some man's come he's trying to run my life
Don't know what he's askin'
When he tells me I better get in line
Can't hear what he's sayin'
When I grow up, I'm gonna make it mine
These ain't dues I been payin'
How much does it cost
I'll buy it
The time is all we've lost
I'll try it
He can't even run his own life
I'll be damned if he'll run mine, sunshine
Sunshine, go away today
I don't feel much like dancin'
Some man's come he's trying to run my life
Don't know what he's askin'
Working starts to make me wonder where
Fruits of what I do are goin'
When he says in love and war all is fair
He's got cards he ain't showin'
How much does it cost
I'll buy it
The time is all we've lost, I'll try it
He can't even run his own life
I'll be damned if he'll run mine, Sunshine
Sunshine, come on back another day
I promise you I'll be singin'
This old world, she's gonna turn around
Brand new bells will be ringin'
SARAH MCLACHLAN lyrics - Grind
Grind, Grind, Grind, Grind...
Another Day hangs like a curtain, tearing with every breath I take
Every breath [tunnelling?] under every desicion that I make, that I make
Pieces fall loud and crashing, landing in the dreams I've made
Every sound growing louder, indecision turns to hate, turns to hate
My dreams are cracked like a broken mirror, cutting [in between the?] leaps
And bounds
Aspirations under the surface, I grind myself into the ground
Pieces fall loud and crashing, landing in the dreams I've made
Every sound growing louder, my indecision turns to hate
It's like I am in a silent movie, I say my piece but it's never heard
Laughing, Laughing with no recalling, wasted days and dying words
My dreams are cracked like a broken mirror, cutting [in between the?] leaps
And bounds
Aspirations under the surface, I grind myself into the ground
It's like I'm in a silent movie, I say my piece but it's never heard
Laughing, Laughing with no recalling, wasted days and dying words
Dying words, dying words...
BUDDY HOLLY lyrics - (You're So Square) Baby I Don't Care
(Leiber / Stoller)
You don't like crazy music
You don't like rockin' bands
You just wanna go to a movie show
And sit there holding hands
You're so square
Baby I don't care
I don't why my heart flips
I only know it does
I wonder why I love you baby
I guess it's just because
You're so square
Baby I don't care
You don't know any dance steps that I do
I only know I love you like I do, I do, I do
I don't why my heart flips
I only know it does
I wonder why I love you baby
I guess it's just because
You're so square
Baby I don't care
Baby I don't care
Baby I don't care care
Care care
THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS lyrics - Spine
I've been dragging my feet across my back
and I've been rubbing my head against my neck
And I've been walking my fingers through my mind
and I've been feeling this feeling in my spine
And I believe I'll be leaving it behind
When I don't need a spine.

THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY lyrics - Sunshine Eyes
(Terry Cashman and Tommy West)
Running in and out of love on a carousel
Up and down and all around I knew that game so well
Searching for the sun and always finding the rain
No matter where love started it always would end the same
[Chorus:]
Now it seems a whole lot better sunshine eyes
When your sunshine eyes keep shining down on me
And I know that we can make it together sunshine eyes
You're feeling good and now it's no surprise, sunshine eyes
Wishing upon a star that I saw last night
Wish that nothing could ever change what's never seemed so right
And now when the shadows start to come my way
My sunshine eyes light up the darkest day
[Chorus]

KANSAS lyrics - No One Together
(Kerry Livgren)
Centuries of backward ways, have many left behind us
Who can count the good men gone away
The fruits of all our labors have left us as we started
We've come too far to end it in a day
It seems that everything we do is wrong
A one way trip to nowhere all along
Just look around and tell me what you see
Another stupid page of history
(Chorus)
No one together, No one is touching ground
Look to each other, Chaos is all around
Same situation, Nothing is really new
No one together, No one is me and you
Lo the horn of plenty is bursting at the seam
The harvest of the world will be our prize
We claim to know the secrets, the answers have been found
But how can one fool make another wise
'Cause nothing's better than it used to be
To live and die is still a mystery
We take away and we give nothing back
We just consume it all and still we lack
(Chorus)
Each day passed by so quickly now
You can feel it drawing much closer now
The signs are in the faces of the people in the street
The signs are in the sound I hear
The voices filled with hate and fear
You can feel it drawing near you now
The multitudes are searching, and wandering in vain
For what they seek cannot be found in men
The truth that lies before us now is plain for all to see
To grow without is not to grow within
For in the promise is a victory
To see the way that everything should be
To feel the joy that we were meant to know
We should have realized so long ago
We're all together, Harmony will abound'
Look at each other, All that was lost is found
New situation if our direction's true
We're all together, Everyone is me and you
MOODY BLUES lyrics - The One
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one again
No surprise
You wanna be the one
Heard you had a story to tell
Sold your soul in a kiss and tell
Sliding down on a helter skelter ride
Into yesterday
No way out, the price of fame
Once it's told will you be the same
Rolling down on a roller coaster ride
We'll be waiting for you
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one again
No surprise
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one
No surprise
You wanna be the one
Shock the world with your fall from grace
Glory days gone without a trace
No surprise you're a face without a name
But we all still love you
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one again
No surprise
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one
No surprise
You wanna be the one
It's time to tell you
We're faithful and true
Take us back to the days
When we could dream
'cos it makes us happy
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one again
No surprise
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one
No surprise
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one again
No surprise
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one
No surprise
No surprise
Hey that you wanna be the one

THE BEATLES lyrics - What You're Doing
(Lennon/McCartney)
Look what you're doing, I'm feeling blue and lonely
Would it be too much to ask you
What you're doing to me?
You got me running and there's no fun in it
Why should it be so much to ask of you
What you're doing to me?
I've been waiting here for you
Wond'ring what you're gonna do
Should you need a love that's true
It's me
Please stop your lying, you've got me crying, girl
Why should it be so much to ask of you
What you're doing to me?
I've been waiting here for you
Wond'ring what you're gonna do
Should you need a love that's true
It's me
Please stop your lying, you've got me crying, girl
Why should it be so much to ask of you
What you're doing to me?
What you're doing to me?
What you're doing to me?
ZUCCHERO lyrics - La Donna E Mobile
La donna e mobile
qual piuma al vento,
muta d' accento - e di pensier.
Sempre un' amabile leggiadro viso,
in pianto o in riso,
e menzognero.
La donna e mobile
qual piuma al vento,
muta d' accento - e di pensier!
e di pensier!
e di pensier!
E sempre misero
chi a lei s' affida,
chi le confida - mal caut o il cor!
Pur mai non sentensi
felice appieno
chi su quel seno - non liba amor!
La donna e mobile
qual piuma al vento,
muta d' accento - e di pensier
e di pensier
e di pensier!

STEVEN CURTIS CHAPMAN lyrics - Children Of The Burning Heart
(Steven Curtis Chapman)
[Luke 24:30-32, Rom 12:11, Heb 10:19-24 12:28-29]
We were the dreamers, the boys on the wild frontier
The new believers with nothing in the world to fear
We had discovered the treasure of the love and the grace of God
And it burned like a fire in our hearts, and we would...
Throw back our heads and run with the passion
Through the fields of forgiveness and grace
We carried the eternal flame
With an undying hope and a blazing conviction
Of a truth that would never fade
We were glowing in the dark
Children of the burning heart
And now for the dreamers, and those who have dared to believe
The flames call us deeper into the great mystery
For as we draw near to the Father we are lost in this one desire
To be wholly consumed by His fire, so let us...
Throw back our heads and run with the passion
Through the fields of forgiveness and grace
We carry the eternal flame
With an undying hope and a blazing conviction
Of a truth that will never fade
We are glowing in the dark
Children of the burning heart
So come on let's...
Throw back our heads and run with the passion
Through the fields of forgiveness and grace
We carry the eternal flame
With an undying hope and a blazing conviction
Of a truth that will never fade
We are glowing in the dark
Children of the burning heart
Keep on glowing in the dark
Children of the burning heart
VANESSA PARADIS lyrics - Silver And Gold
(Lenny Kravitz)
How many children must die
How many rivers run dry
How many angels must cry
For silver and gold
Why don't we learn
From our past
How many more years
Will we last
Life is just moving so fast
For silver and gold
How much more time
Can we waste
How much more land
Be defaced
'Cause soon we will all be erased
For silver and gold
'Cause our earth should last forever
And our lives forever on
For God gave us all to partake
Why can we just learn to relate
We're pissing on our children's face
For silver and gold
