EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER lyrics - Tarkus: IV. Mass

(Emerson, Lake)



The preacher said a prayer.

Save ev'ry single hair on his head.

He's dead.



The minister of hate had just arrived to be spared.

Who cared?

The weaver in the web that he made!



The pilgrim wandered in,

Commiting ev'ry sin that he could

So good...



The cardinal of grief was set in his belief he'd saved

From the grave

The weaver in the web that he made!



The high priest took a blade

To bless the ones that prayed,

And all obeyed.



The messenger of fear is slowly growing, nearer to the time,

A sign.

The weaver in the web that he made!



A bishops rings a bell,

A cloak of darkness fell across the ground

Without a sound!



The silent choir sing and in their silence,

Bring jaded sound, harmonic ground.

The weaver in the web that he made!

TINA TURNER lyrics - Tina's Wish

(Ike Turner & Tina Turner)



[Previously recorded by Ike & Tina as "Tina's Prayer"]



I'm talking to the priest

The high priest

And everybody out there in the universe

If what I'm saying is wrong

Then tell me the right way to say it

Cause I wanna be made over



Paint me red, paint me green

Give me liberty, wash me clean

Make me over, make me nice

Cause when I'm done, Lord, I wanna be right



Hey Lord

Make me over, I wanna be made over

Hey Lord

Make me over, I wanna be made over



Make me smart, make me king

Give a lot, give me steam

I want eternal beauty, spiritual things

Cause when I'm done, yes I wanna be a good thing



Hey Lord

Make me over, I wanna be made over

Hey Lord

Make me over, I wanna be made over



I wanna go places, I wanna do some things

I wanna be a star, I wanna have a big name

But in my heart, let beauty reign

And when I'm done, I wanna have fame



Lord make me nice, Lord make me good

Give me power, give me love

I wanna be desirable, voluptuous, tenderized

THE KINKS lyrics - Dandy

Dandy, Dandy,

Where you gonna go now?

Who you gonna run to?

All your little life

You're chasing all the girls.

They can't resist your smile.

Oh, they long for Dandy, Dandy.



Checkin' out the ladies,

Tickling their fancy,

Pouring out your charm

To meet your own demands,

And turn it off at will.

Oh, they long for Dandy, Dandy.



Knockin' on the back door,

Climbing through the window,

Hubby's gone away,

And while the cat's away

The mice are gonna play.

Oh, you low down Dandy, Dandy.

Dandy



Dandy, you know you're moving much too fast,

And Dandy, you know you can't escape the past.

Look around you and see the people settle down,

And when you're old and grey you will remember what they said,

That two girls are too many, three's a crowd and four you're dead.



Oh Dandy, Dandy,

When you gonna give up?

Are you feeling old now?

You always will be free,

You need no sympathy,

A bachelor you will stay,

And Dandy, you're all right.

You're all right.

You're all right.

You're all right.

You're all right.

You're all right.

BLIND GUARDIAN lyrics - Lost In The Twilight Hall

Awaiting my last breath

The mirror calls my name

It's showing me the way

Into the dark

The bridge appears

I jump into the dark side

And hear the voice it's cold as ice

"Welcome to reality"



Where am I now?

Darkness surrounds

Can't go forward

Can't go back



[Kai:] I see planets dying

[Hansi:] I fall into the light

[K:] a new universe awakes

[H:] I'm a Traveler in Time

[K:] pray for the light

[H:] Where's the key

[K:] to the gate

[H/K:] of a new life - no

[H:] I search for deliverance

[K:] but I cannot find



[Lead: Andre]



[Refrain:]

Look behind the mirror

I'm lost in the twilight hall

Once I'll be back for a moment in time

That's when the mirror's falling down



[Lead: Andre]



Take me away

From the place I've been

To another life

In another world

A sign of life

Surrounds me now

The bridge appears in the dark

I'm free

I fly alone

Leaving the darkness now, forever?

The memories of children

And the wisdom of many lifes

Burns deep in me

Where will the light go to?

Where will the light go to?

Is this deliverance?

Is it the end?



[Refrain]



[Solo: Andre]



I'm back there's a new chance for me

And all my memories are gone

I can feel what's happening to me

And the mirrow will burst



[Refrain 2x]



[Lead: Andre]

BARRY MANILOW lyrics - Summertime

[Diane:]

Summertime and the livin' is easy

Fish are jumpin' and the cotton is high

Oh your daddy's rich and your ma is good lookin'

So hush little baby don't you cry

So hush little baby don't you cry

PANTERA lyrics - Metal Magic

When they say don't look back

Do what they say

You gotta look ahead

To a better day

In a world of metal magic

You need a break

Go forth

Take a chance

Make no mistake



Metal magic

Metal magic

Metal magic

Metal magic



They say you can't go back

Oh so true

When you're a rocker baby

You gotta pay your dues



In a world of metal magic

Magic never ends

Sometimes you lose

And sometimes you win



Metal magic

Metal magic

Metal magic

Metal magic



Lost in the metal magic

It never ends

Sometimes you lose

Sometimes you win



Metal magic

Metal magic

Metal magic

Yeah

BONNIE RAITT lyrics - Cool, Clear Water

I want to feel my earth turn over, baby

In this hardened winter ground

Feel my earth turn over, darlin'

Till' I'm rootless and unbound

I want to feel my body tremble

When there's no one else around

Just this cool, clear water runnin'

In this love that I've found



Hey baby

See how it can be

Every time you reveal yourself tome

I'll come runnin'



I want to feel myself go under, baby

Where the deepest river bleeds

I want to feel it pull me under, darlin'

Until it drops me to my knees

I want to know that I can findyou

When there's no more eyes tosee

In this cool, clear water runnin'

You'll come runnin' to me



Hey baby

All my life I have known there'ssomething more

A love to blind me like the sun

Deep in dreams, I will wash upon your shore

Now I know that you're the one



When I feelmy babycallin'

It's like awhisper inAnd whenthe softestrain is fallin', darlin'

I will crumble in your hand

And when all that's left is wonder

And no need to understand

Well this cool, clear waterrunnin'

Will be all that I am...

DARYL HALL AND JOHN OATES lyrics - Private Eyes

I see you, you see me

Watch you blowin' the lines

When you're making a scene

Oh girl, you've got to know

What my head overlooks

The senses will show to my heart

When it's watching for lies

You can't escape my



Private Eyes

They're watching you

They see your every move

Private Eyes

They're watching you

Private Eyes

They're watching you

Watching you

Watching you

Watching you



You play with words

You play with love

You can twist it around, baby

That ain't enough

'Cos girl

I'm gonna know

If you're letting me in

Or letting me go

Don't lie

When you're hurting inside

'Cos you can't escape my



Private Eyes

They're watching you

They see your every move

Private Eyes

They're watching you

Private Eyes

They're watching you

Watching you

Watching you

Watching you



[Instrumental Interlude]



Why you try to put up a front for me

I'm a spy but on your side, you see

Slip on into any disguise

I'll still know you

Look into my Private Eyes

They're watching you

They see your every move

Oh, babe, Private Eyes

They're watching you

Private Eyes

They're watching you, yeah

They see your every move

They see it

Ooooh, they're watching you

Private Eyes

They're watching you...

BARRY MANILOW lyrics - Baby, It's Cold Outside

Well honeybunch

It's been fun

But gotta run

Oh sweetlips

Stay a little while longer won't you

No it's very late baby

I really got to go

But look at the weather

You'll catch cold out there

And I would never forgive myself

Oh you

Come on just one more night cap

No I shouldn't

Come on



No well

I really can't stay

But baby it's cold outside

I got to go away

But baby it's cold outside

This evening has been

And hoping that you drop in

So very nice

I'll hold your hands

There just like ice

My mother will start to worry

Beautiful what's your hurry

And father will be pacing the floor

Listen to the fireplace roar

So really I better scurry

Beautiful please don't go

Well maybe just a half drink more

Put some records on while I pour

The neighbors might think

But baby it's bad out there

Say, what's in this drink

No cabs to be had out there

I wish I knew how

Your eyes are like stars tonight

To break this spell

I'll take your hat

Your hair looks swell

I oughta say no no no sir

Mind if I move in closer

At least I'm gonna say that I tried

What's the sense of hurting my pride

I really can't stay

Baby don't hold on

Ah but it's cold outside



Well I must say

This couch is very comfortable

It's not a couch puddin' pop

It's a love seat

Oh how you talk

Oh Barry

I simply must go



But baby it's cold outside

The answer is no

But baby it's cold outside

The welcome has been

How lucky that you dropped in

So nice and warm

Look out the window

At that storm

My sister will be suspicious

Gosh your lips look good

My brother will be there at the door

Like waves upon a tropical storm

My maiden aunt's mind is vicious

Gosh your lips are delicious

Well maybe just a cigarrette more

Never said your blues will be for

I've got to get home

But baby you'll freeze out there

Say darling can you lend me your comb

It's up to your knees out there

You really been grand

I thrill when you touch my hand

But don't you see

How can you do this thing to me

There's bound to be talk tomorrow

Think of my life long sorrow

At least there will be plenty in life

If you caught pneumonia and died

I really can't stay

Get over that hold out

Ah but it's cold outside



Well I don't know

I don't got to go home

Hey look it's starting to snow

Oh you arranged that didn't you?

See now you gotta stay

Well, I guess I won't be able to find a cab

No cabs

And the buses they never run

They'll never run in snow like this

Let me take your coat

Well tomorrow is Sunday isn't it?

And I don't have to go to work

See isn't that better

And who knows how long it will keep snowing

It can snow for a long time, Kate

What are you doing?

Well now yeah

IRVING BERLIN lyrics - The Waltz Of Long Ago

[Verse:]

Jazz dancing nowadays does not appeal to me

I never cared about the jazzy melody

I'd love to dance around a while

But my kind of dance is out of style



[Refrain:]

I love to dance the dreamy waltz

Of long ago



When grand-mama and grand-papa

Were girl and beau



I can see them there dancing

Such a happy pair romancing



While gliding o'er

The ballroom floor

To the waltz of long ago

JOURNEY lyrics - Colors Of The Spirit

(Perry, Cain, Schon, Bettis)



We are one, we are one

Distant rhythm in a troubled sky

Angry clouds divide the sun

Feels like thunder and so do I

Bloody silence has begun

Flying like a wounded dove



Tomorrow comes undone

Surrender don't come easily

We try to get over... over

Falling together... together



Many colors of the spirit

Many lives below the sun

We are colors of the spirit

We are many... we are one



Ask the question - what's goin' on

Why raging children run

Where's the father's legacy

Where's the harvest of the son

Close your eyes and tell me what you see

I see the same thing... same thing



Many colors of the spirit

Many lives below the sun

We are colors of the spirit

We are many... we are one

No, surrender don't come easily

We try to get over... over



Many colors of the spirit

Many lives below the sun

We are colors of the spirit

We are many... we are one

We are many... we are one

MEGADETH lyrics - Dread And The Fugitive Mind

(Dave Mustaine)



Let me introduce myself I'm a social disease

I've come for your wealth leave you on your knees

No time for feeling sorry, I got here on my own

I won't ask for mercy, I choose to walk alone



What's yours is mine and what's mine is mine too

If you shake my hand better count your fingers



What if I do get caught? What if there is no judgment?

If I'm right I lose nothing, if you're right I lose it all

I ought to get caught because I'm doing something wicked

I'm guilty haunted by my fear and the only consequences

Are Dread and the Fugitive Mind



You built walls to protect you so no one will infect you

Pursued by those out there that vanish in thin air

Come a long way to find what you really left behind

You don't know when the end is but it's coming fast



What's yours is mine and what's mine is mine too

If you shake my hand better count your fingers



What if I do get caught? What if there is no judgment?

If I'm right I lose nothing, if you're right I lose it all

I ought to get caught because I'm doing something wicked

I'm guilty haunted by my fear and the only consequences

Are Dread and the Fugitive Mind



[Solos - Mustaine, Pitrelli]

JR. WALKER AND THE ALL STARS lyrics - What Does It Take (To Win Your Love)

(Johnny Bristol, Harvey Fuqua, Vernon Bullock)



[Instrumental Interlude]



What does it take

to win your love for me?

How can I make

this dream come true for me?

Whoa I just got to know

ooo, baby cause I love ya so.

Gonna blow for ya



[Instrumental Interlude]



I tried, I tried, I tried, I tried,

in every way I could,

to make you see how much I love you.

Ooo, I thought you understood.



So you gotta make me see,

what does it take to win your love for me?

Gonna blow again for ya



[Instrumental Interlude]

BELINDA CARLISLE lyrics - Big Scary Animal

(Charlotte Caffey, Belinda Carlisle, Ralph Schuckett)



You keep talkin' - who you trying to kid?

Tryin' to keep your feelings hid

And I'm a prisoner of the past

It's so hard to make a good thing last



We know history

Over and over, will it repeat

Hey you, it's only me

No heart on my sleeve



Here we go, some things are inevitable

Don't we know, it could be so beautiful

It's too real

Situation flammable

Love is, love is, love is....

A big scary animal



Hey girl, be a man

Why'd you let it get out of hand

Hey boy, be a girl

Who wants to live in a man's world?



Come down, feel the ground

We can't keep going 'round and around

I know it's only you

Can I refuse? Can I refuse? Can I refuse?



Hey boy, serves you right

Why'd you have to take that bite

Hey girl, play your game

God knows they're all the same



Hey girl, listen up

No use drink' from that broken cup

Hey man, feel the fear

Someday I'm gonna catch your tears



Here we go, some things are inevitable

Don't we know, it could be so beautiful

It's too real

Situation flammable

Love is, love is, love is....

A big scary animal

10,000 MANIACS lyrics - Beyond The Blue

(Music by 10,000 Maniacs - Lyrics by Mary Ramsey & John Lombardo)



I was thinking today

If you would remember

You choose to remember

What you left me out there

In the cold days fading away

I see you so near

I hear your voice calling

It calls me from these pages to you

Beyond the blue,

So sudden too soon

The secrets we knew

I was thinking today

If you would surrender

To feelings that you tried deserting

And if given the choice

I'd still wait for the moment

Still wait for the moment

When I could have

A hero like you

Days fading away

But I see you so clear

I hear your voice calling

It calls me from these pages to you

Beyond the blue.

RUSH lyrics - The Necromancer III. Return Of The Prince

"Enter the Champion.

Prince By-Tor appears to battle for freedom from chains of long years.

The spell has been broken; the Dark Lands are bright. The Wraith of the Necromancer soars away in the night."

Stealthily attacking

By-Tor slays his foe

The men are free to run now

From labyrinths below

The Wraith of Necromancer

Shadows through the sky

Another land to darken

With evil prism eye.

STEVE WINWOOD lyrics - No Time To Live

(Winwood/Capaldi)



As time begins to burn itself upon me

And the days are growing very short

People try their hardest to reject me

But in a way, their conscience won't be caught



Something's happening to me day by day

My pebble on the beach is getting washed away

I've given everything that was mine to give

And now I'll turn around and find that there's no time to live



So often I have seen that big wheel of fortune

Spinning for the man who holds the ace

There's many who would change their places for him

But none of them have ever seen his lonely face

THE SUPREMES lyrics - Stranger In Paradise

Take my hand

I'm a stranger in Paradise

All lost in a wonderland

A stranger in Paradise



If I stand starry-eyed

That's a danger in Paradise

For mortals who stand beside

An angel like you



I saw your face

And I ascended

Out of the commonplace

Into the rare



Somewhere in space

I hang suspended

Until I know

There's a chance that you care



Won't you answer that fervent prayer

Of a stranger in Paradise

Don't send me in dark despair

From all that I hunger for



But open your angel arms

To a stranger in Paradise

And tell her that she need be

A stranger no more

SARAH BRIGHTMAN lyrics - Solo Con Te

Gioia nel cuor trovero

Con te il ciel raggiungero

Pace ci sara



Gioia nel cuor trovero

Con te il ciel raggiungero

Pace ci sara



Gioia nel cuor trovero

Con te il ciel raggiungero

Un mondo nuovo con te vedro



[Translation:]



I will find joy in the heart

With you I will reach heaven

There will be peace



I will find joy in the heart

With you I will reach heaven

There will be peace



I will find joy in the heart

With you I will reach heaven

With you I will see a new world

MARIAH CAREY lyrics - Whenever You Call

Love wandered inside

Stronger than you

Stronger than I

And now that it has begun

We cannot turn back

We can only turn into one



I won't ever be too far away to feel you

And I won't hesitate at all

Whenever you call

And I'll always remember

The part of you so tender

I'll be the one to catch you fall

Whenever you call



And I'm truly inspired

Finding my soul

There in your eyes

And you

Have opened my heart

And lifted me inside

By showing me yourself

Undisguised



I won't ever be too far away to feel you

And I won't hesitate at all

Whenever you call

And I'll always remember

The part of you so tender

I'll be the one to catch you fall

Whenever you call



And I will breathe for you each day

Comfort you through all the pain

Gently kiss your fears away

You can turn to me and cry

Always understand that I

Give you all I am inside



I won't ever be too far away to feel you

And I won't hesitate at all

Whenever you call



I won't ever be too far away to feel you

And I won't hesitate at all

Whenever you call

And I'll always remember

The part of you so tender

I'll be the one to catch you fall

Whenever you call

BUDDY & JULIE MILLER lyrics - Praise To The Lord, Amen

Praise to the Lord, who breaks every chain,

Praise to the Lord, who heals every pain,

Praise to the one who's coming again,

Praise to the Lord, amen.



Praise to the Lord, who sets prisoners free,

Praise to the Lord, who makes the blind see,

Praise to the one who wipes away sin,

Praise to the Lord, amen.



Praise to the Lord,

Praise to the Lord.



Praise to the Father, who gave us his son,

Praise to the Son who, for sinners, has come,

Praise to the Spirit, who Jesus has sent,

Praise to the Lord, praise to the Lord,

Praise to the Lord, amen.

PAUL MCCARTNEY lyrics - After The Ball / Million Miles

After the ball, after the ball, you were the one out in the hall

You were the one, the one who would love me, after the ball.

After the ball, after the ball, you were the one out in the hall

You were the one, the one who would love me, after the ball.



Well, I arrived, looked around but the room was full of strangers

Nowhere was a freindly face to be found.

Later on, I awoke, but the party it was over

There you were waiting to bring me 'round.



How many million miles, day-oh?

How many million miles, day-oh?

When I get up, up, up in the morning, whoa! Lord I know.

When I look up, up, up in the morning, whoa! Lord I know.

How many million miles, day-oh?

How many million miles, day-oh?

How many million miles, day-oh?

BRIAN MAY lyrics - The Man From Manhattan

(Eddie Howell)



Hey little lady do you love me

As much as you tell me you do

Oh I'm not them man you think I am

The game I've been playing is through

Hey little girl do you trust me

Oh I'm gonna tell you no lies

I'm gonna come clean, don't make a scene

I've been hiding behind a disguise



Oh I'm the man from Manhattan, ole

The man with a price on his head (lots of money)

The man from Manhattan, the surface is satin

But the lining is laden with lead



Oh I've been a fugitive too long

Running away with my fame

My enemies flee at the sight of me

They shake at the sound of my name



Cause I'm the man from Mahnattan, ole

The man with a price on his head (go and get the deputy)

The man from Manhattan, the surface is satin

But the lining is laden with lead



Don't be afraid, it's only a dream (I'm only dreaming)

An imaginary hero, a vision I've seen

(ah ah ah ah ah) Cuckoo



Oh I know my true destination

The day will eventaully come

I tell you my friend I know my end (will be)

When I'm standing alone in the sight of a gun



Oh I'm the man from Manhattan, ole

The man with a price on his head (lots of money)

The man from Manhattan, the surface is satin

But the lining is laden with lead

JOE COCKER lyrics - Dear Landlord

(Dylan)



Dear landlord

Please don't put a price on my soul

My burden is heavy

My dreams are beyond control

When that steamboat whistle blows

I'm gonna give you all I got to give

And I do hope you receive it well

Depending on the way you feel that you live.



Dear landlord

Please heed these words that I speak

I know you've suffered much

But in this you are not so unique

All of us, at times we might work too hard

To have it too fast and too much

And anyone can fill his life up

With things he can see but he just cannot touch.



Dear landlord

Please don't dismiss my case

I'm not about to argue

I'm not about to move to no other place

Now, each of us has his own special gift

And you know this was meant to be true

And if you don't underestimate me

I won't underestimate you.

PANTERA lyrics - The Underground In America

Put in position to wage teenage mayhem

A common affair for the ones who are juiced

If it is weakness that grants us the power

We thrive on what's stronger than most of the world



Glass breaks

The dimming lights

Sweat, heat and profane debate

The smart ones stay on the outside

While drunken heads and arms erupt



Centered man swings a punch,

Spits a tooth, postures odd

A punk rock escapade

Five bucks a head to be king dick in the crowd



We are the ones who must sport the position



Cheap beer

Trendy clicks

Lesbian love is accepted and right

Shaved heads meet hair in the mix

Blending the 80's and 90's with hate



Put in position to wage teenage mayhem

A common affair for the ones who are juiced

If it is weakness that grants us the power

We thrive on what's stronger than most of the world



Shows on

Dates canceled

Kicked out for reasons that seem so unfair

Skin crusts against the cops

A foregone conclusion that's tired and beat



Ringworm, crabs and lice

V. D. ecstasy, speed and horse

A heaven of unmatched importance

An honor of sex to be stuck by the punk



Rich homes with money and food

Abandoned for the bums on the street

A lifestyle that's unexplainable

Don't try and save what is all meant to be



Put in position to wage teenage mayhem

A common affair for the ones who are juiced

If it is weakness that grants us the power

We thrive on what's stronger than most of the world



If it is free

From (a) family that's seen

You can just keep it

If you must beg

It's better instead

You must follow the etiquette



You know when it rains you're in your bed at home

You act so real when you are alone

You better not let the mohawked crowd see

Give it five years, you'll retire your piercings

You must admit that you mimic the weaklings

MADNESS lyrics - Overdone

(Thompson/Foreman)



Door locked open, door locked shut

See you soon, hopefully not

I've been and gone so many times

Without a word, I've dropped no lines

Just look forward, never back

Selfish bastard, dicta-brat



Please forgive me

For the things I have done

Don't feel ashamed

If you're asked how's your son



Living here and living there

Lived at home but very rare

To see your faces it would be

A treasure locked in memory

Do drop a line, say hello Dad

I await your answer, for I also beg



Please accept me

From a baby I have come

Pain, distress and heartache

I have now overcome



Running here and running there

Often caught but never cared

Been a-courting every year

Champagne and caviar

Understand this old man

If you don't buy it, I'll still make you

Understand, I will old man

If you can't buy it, I'll still make you



Dealing low and dealing high

Money always just walked by

Visible lines now I can see

Was all this the cause of me

A letter's come, she has replied

Well, two years ago your mother died

DREAM THEATER lyrics - The Spirit Carries On

[Nicholas:]

Where did we come from?

Why are we here?

Where do we go when we die?

What lies beyond

And what lay before?

Is anything certain in life?



They say, "Life is too short,"

"The here and the now"

And "You're only given one shot"

But could there be more,

Have I lived before,

Or could this be all that we've got?



If I die tomorrow

I'd be allright

Because I believe

That after we're gone

The spirit carries on



I used to be frightened of dying

I used to think death was the end

But that was before

I'm not scared anymore

I know that my soul will transcend



I may never find all the answers

I may never understand why

I may never prove

What I know to be true

But I know that I still have to try



If I die tomorrow

I'd be allright

Because I believe

That after we're gone

The spirit carries on



[Victoria:]

"Move on, be brave

Don't weep at my grave

Because I am no longer here

But please never let

Your memory of me disappear"



[Nicholas:]

Safe in the light that surrounds me

Free of the fear and the pain

My questioning mind

Has helped me to find

The meaning in my life again

Victoria's real

I finally feel

At peace with the girl in my dreams

And now that I'm here

It's perfectly clear

I found out what all of this means



If I die tomorrow

I'd be allright

Because I believe

That after we're gone

The spirit carries on

THE MAMAS AND THE PAPAS lyrics - Snowqueen Of Texas

(John Phillips)



Snowqueen of Texas

Left Paris in a cloud of smoke.

They say that she may be beaten,

But I know that she's not broke.

She's living in a cool green farmhouse;

If you go to Houston,

Be quiet as a mouse.



Met a man in Beirut

Having her name tattooed on his arm.

(Ooh, a Deborah forever)

Boots of Spanish leather, I never meant you any harm.

I'm on my knees, your majesty;

Snowqueen, save a cold kiss of me.

I'm on my knees your majesty.

Snowqueen of Texas

Left Paris in a cloud of smoke.

They say that she may be beaten,

But I know that she's not broke.

She's living in a cool green farmhouse;

If you go to Houston,

Be quiet as a mouse.



She's mending a fairy tale -

Reading her heart.

(Ooh, a Deborah forever)

That's a good motto

For some junkman's cart.

I'm on my knees, your majesty;

Snowqueen, save a cold kiss of me.

(I'm on my knees your majesty)

I'm on my knees your majesty.

(I'm on my knees your majesty.)

I'm on my knees your majesty.

(I'm on my knees your majesty.)

Snowqueen...

Save a cold kiss for me.

PATTI LABELLE lyrics - He's Out Of My Life

[Original version "She's Out Of My Life" by Michael Jackson]



He's out of my life

He's out of my life

And I don't know whether to laugh or cry

I don't know whether to live or die

And it cuts like a knife

He's out of my life



It's out of my hands

It's out of my hands

To think the two years he was here

And I took him for granted I was so cavalier

Now the way that it stands

He's out of my hands



So I've learned that loves not possession

And I've learned that love won't wait

Now I've learned that love needs expression

But I learned too late



And he's out of my life

He's out of my life

Damned in decision and cursed pride

I kept my love for him locked deep inside

And it cuts like a knife

He's out of my life

BLACK SABBATH lyrics - Never Say Die

People going nowhere, taken for a ride

Looking for the answers that they know inside

Searching for a reason, looking for a rhyme

Snow White's mirror said "partners in crime!"



Don't they ever have to worry?

Don't you ever wonder why?

It's a part of me that tells you

Oh, don't you ever, don't ever say die

Never, never, never say die again



Sunday's satisfaction, Monday's home and dry

Truth is on the doorstep, welcome in the lie

All dressed up in sorrow, got no place to go

Hold back, `till it's ready, taking it slow



Don't they ever have to worry?

Don't you ever wonder why?

It's a part of me that tells you

Oh, don't you ever, don't ever say die

Never, never, never say die again



Don't you ever say die

Don't you ever say die

Never say die



Panic, silver lining, writing's on the wall

Children get together, you can save us all

Future's on the corner, throwing us a die

Slow down, turn around, everything's fine



There's no need to have a reason

There's no need to wonder why

It's a part of me that tells you

Oh, don't you ever, don't ever say die

Never, never, never say die again

QUEENSRYCHE lyrics - Middle Of Hell

(Gray/Johnson/Rockenfield/Tate)



Wake up! Buck up and listen!

Where am I?

Head reeling, I guess I wasn't dreaming.

Heart racing. Hard to breathe.

You were right.

Got myself right here in the middle of Hell.



It's all right. I'll be all right.

All right.



Laser light shines bright behind me.

Can't see what's ahead or beside me.

Everyone here has a gun.

We drive straight down the centerline.

No mistakes, not like last time.

You don't want to be on the wrong side of Hell.



I'm all right. I'll be all right.

All right.

I'm just trying to hold on

To whatever is left of me.

Keeping my head down,

Crawling on my hands and knees.



They're always out there.

I feel their eyes always watching me.

If you blink... they'll disappear.



The Med E Vac lifts off the ground and I

Can't feel a thing.

I don't really understand what happened.



There are some here

That won't make it out alive but

It's not gonna be me...

This time. You'll see!



I'll be all right. I'll be all right.

All right.

R. E.M. lyrics - 7 Chinese Bros

This mellow, sweet, short-haired boy, woman offers pull up a seat

Take in one symphony now, we've just begun to battle

Wrap your heel in bones of steel, turn the leg, a twist of color

Autumn waited hold it to you in the colored come another



Seven chinese brothers swallowing the ocean

Seven thousand years to sleep away the pain

She will return, she will return



This mellow, sweet, short-haired boy, woman offers pull up a seat

Take in one symphony now, we've just begun to battle

Wrap your heel in bones of steel, turn the leg, a twist of color

Autumn waded seven seas swimming colored come another



Seven chinese brothers swallowing the ocean

Seven thousand years to sleep away the pain

She will return, she will return



This mellow, sweet, short-haired boy, woman offers pull up a chair

Take in one symphony now, I guess we lost that battle

Wrap your heel in bones of steel, turn the leg, a twist of color

Autumn waded seven seas swimming colored come another



Seven chinese brothers swallowing the ocean

Seven thousand years the Communi did reign

She will return, she will return

JOHN (COUGAR) MELLENCAMP lyrics - Where The World Began

I'm tired of being grateful for a chance to take a dive

I'm sick of everything I do just to keep myself alive

When you cut away the skin that bears the brand

Standin' in the darkness, Baby, there I am



Standin' in the darkness

Someone call my name out

Standin' in the darkness

Someone put the flame out

Standin' in the darkness

Baby, there I am

Where the world began



Saw the man in Jamaica, he had a shadow on his back

I recalled the ring of fire, and he wore his suit of black

When the legend and the ocean meet the sand

Standin' in the darkness, Baby, there I am



Standin' in the darkness

Someone call my name out

Standin' in the darkness

Someone put the flame out

Standin' in the darkness

Baby, there I am

Where the world began



Everyone is so fabulous, hey, we all got our gun

Old Snakey's not a sinner, no, he just shows us how it's done

When you separate the wretched from the damned

Standin' in the darkness, Baby, there I am



Standin' in the darkness

Someone call my name out

Standin' in the darkness

Someone put the flame out

Standin' in the darkness

Baby, there I am

Where the world began

THE MANHATTAN TRANSFER lyrics - Tubby The Tuba

Tubby wants to play the violins' tune, but it's too light and flimsy for a big tuba. He ends up squashing the little tune, and the conductor sends him away. Tubby wanders forlornly to the edge of a pond where he meets a Bullfrog. The Bullfrog teaches him a new song that becomes Tubby's very own melody.



[Tubby (Tim Hauser):]

Alone am I, me and I together.

If I went away from me,

How unhappy I would be,

Me and I, oh my.





[Bullfrog (Alan Paul):]

Bug-Gup! Bug-Gup!

Lovely evening!

Bug-Gup! Bug-Gup!

I said. "lovely evening!"

Clunk! Clunk! Clunk!

I said, "Bee-oo-tiful evening!"

Hello! Bug-Gup!

Hello! Bug-Gup!

Hello!

THE WHO lyrics - Gettin' In Tune

I'm singing this note 'cause it fits in well

With the chords I'm playing

I can't pretend there's any meaning here

Or in the things I'm saying



But I'm in tune

Right in tune

I'm in tune

And I'm gonna tune

Right in on you

Right in on you

Right in on you



I get a little tired of having to say

"Do you come here often?"

But when I look in your eyes and see the harmonies

And the heartaches soften



I'm getting in tune

Right in tune

I'm in tune

And I'm gonna tune

Right in on you (right in on you)

Right in on you (right in on you)

Right in on you



I've got it all here in my head

There's nothing more needs to be said

I'm just bangin' on my old piano

I'm getting in tune with the straight and narrow

(Getting in tune with the straight and narrow)

Getting in tune with the straight and narrow

(Getting in tune with the straight and narrow)

Yeah, I'm getting in tune with the straight and narrow

(Getting in tune with the straight and narrow)



I'm singing this note 'cause it fits in well

With the way I'm feeling

There's a symphony that I hear in your heart

Sets my head a-reeling



But I'm in tune

Right in tune

I'm in tune

And I'm gonna tune

Right in on you (right in on you)

Right in on you (right in on you)

Right in on you



Baby, with you

Baby, with you

Baby, with you

Baby, with you

Baby, with you



I've got it all here in my head

There's nothing more needs to be said

I'm just bangin' on my old piano

I'm getting in tune with the straight and narrow



Getting in tune with the straight and narrow [repeat]

THE TEMPTATIONS lyrics - Farewell My Love

Melvin:

Boom-Boom-Boom-Boom-Boom-Boom-Boom (Ect.)



Farewell, my love.

Farewell, my love.



I love you more than anything.

No one knows the good you bring....

Eddie: to me.



Paul:

But I've got to set you free. (Boo-oo)

I've just got to set you free. (Boo-oo)



Eddie:

Aww, goodbye, (goodbye) my love. (My love)

I'm gonna cry, (gonna cry) my love. (My love)



The vow of love you broken.

The law of love has spoken....

Eddie: to you.



Paul:

Oh, why couldn't you be true? (Why couldn't you be true?)

Why couldn't you be true? (Why couldn't you be true?)



Paul:

So long, baby. You know, it's so hard...

It's really hard to find someone in this wide world, who's really true.

I guess it's just meant for me to be unhappy.

But I believe, I really do believe that somewhere someone is waiting for me.



Eddie:

Aww, she's there, (she's there) my love. (My love)

Somewhere, (somewhere) my love. (My love)



Someone who cares.

And still be there...

Eddie: with me.



Paul:

Oh, my darling can't you see? (Boo-oo)

How wonderful it would be, yeah. (Boo-oo)



Farewell, to you.

Farewell, my love.

Eddie: We're...

Through.

Eddie: We're through.

STATUS QUO lyrics - Spinning Wheel Blues

(Rossi/Young)



Well, I spent my money on the spinning wheel last night

Well, I spent my money on the spinning wheel last night

Well, red twenty-seven didn't do me right



Well, I went in smiling but I came out feeling down

Well, I went in smiling but I came out feeling down

Well, now that I'm a poor man, I got no frends around



I went high up that lonesome, high up that lonesome hill

I went high up that lonesome, high up that lonesome hill

I need a whole lotta money so I can pay my bills



Well, the spinning wheel blues have made me pack up my bags and go

Well, the spinning wheel blues have made me pack up my bags and go

I had to leave my home town, 'cos they don't want me no more

ELVIS PRESLEY lyrics - Proud Mary

(John Fogerty)



Left a good job in the city

Workin' for the man every night and day

Haven't ever lost one minute of sleeping

Worried about the way things might have been



Been a lot of places down in Memphis

I umped a lot of babes down in New Orleans

Had a lot of shots at good times in the city

Till I hitched a ride on a river bout queen



A big wheel keeps on turnin'

Proud Mary keeps on burnin', rollin', rollin'

Rollin' on a river

Rollin, rollin, rollin on a river



If you come down to the river

I betcha you're gonna find some people who live

You don't have to worry

'Cause you have no money

People along the river are happy to give



I said a big wheel keeps on turnin'

Proud Mary keeps on burnin', rollin', rollin'

Rollin' on a river

Rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river

JACKSON 5 / THE JACKSONS lyrics - Goin' Places

I like the feelin' I get

When I'm ridin' in a jet

Say I'm goin' places



I like the feelin' I get

When I'm ridin' in a jet

Say I'm goin' places



I want to go

To a different land

Try my best

To understand

The different traditions

And customs

That people have



The world is bigger

Than this ole town

I wanna get my feet up

Off the ground

I've saved up my money

And I'm leavin' here today

'Cause....



I like the feelin' I get

When I'm ridin' in a jet

Say I'm goin' places



I want to get

A first class seat

Climbing to a high of forty feet

It don't take long

To get where you wanna go



I'm gonna have myself a ball

This ole world I wanna see it all

I got my clothes packed

And I'm leaving right away



I like the feelin' I get

When I'm ridin' in a jet

Say I'm goin' places

STEVEN CURTIS CHAPMAN lyrics - You Know Better

I saw you staring out your window

Watchin' the people passing by

Taking some notes on what you saw out there

So you would know how hard you need to try



I heard you asking lots of questions

How in comparison you stand

Please let me warn you to be very careful

God wants our best and not our better than



[Chorus:]

But you know better, better than that

You know better than, better than that

You should know better, truth is the only measure

You know better than, better than that



Now just in case I've got you thinkin'

And if you're feeling like I do

Maybe it's time we open up the Holy Bible

And see exactly what He's called us to

He said the least would be the greatest

The greatest is the one who serves

We must be living by a different standard

A life that isn't graded on a curve



[Chorus]

BARRY MANILOW lyrics - The Old Songs

Candles burning

Glasses are chilled and soon

She'll be by

Hope and pray

She'll say that she's willing to give us

Another try

And if all those plans I've made

Don't melt the lady's heart

I'll put on the old 45's



[Chorus:]

And maybe the old songs

Will bring back the old times

Maybe the old lines

Will sound new



Maybe she'll lay her

Head on my shoulder

Maybe old feelings

Will come through

Maybe we'll start to cry

And wonder why

We ever walked away

Maybe the old songs

Will bring back the old times

And make her want to stay



It's been too long since I've

Seen her face light up

When I come home

It's been too many

Hours I've wasted staring

At the phone

Sweet old songs I'm counting on you

To brink her back to me

I'm tired of listening alone



[Chorus]



And make her want to stay

Want to stay

Maybe we'll start to cry

And wonder why

We ever walked away

Maybe the old songs

Will bring back the old times

And make her want to stay

CAROLE KING lyrics - Change In Mind, Change Of Heart

You and I

We ought to try to face the fact

The things we thought had value

They've all been taken back

We've been losing track of time

But time's no easy mark

I can see you've got a change in mind

But what we need is a change of heart



I can see you've got a change in mind

But what we need's a change of heart



You and me

It seems that we've been holding out

The things that once held meaning

We're no longer sure about

We've been moving down the line

Losing what time we've got

And since you say you've had a change in mind

Why don't you try a little change of heart



I can see you've got a change in mind

But what we need's a change of heart



Now I'm not asking anymore of you

Than I ask of myself

Oh, but when I say we need a new approach

Well, I don't mean to someone else



Change, they say, it's the only way we grow

Oh, but the change we're showing

Let me tell you I just don't know

Seems to me that we could find some other way to start

Beginning with a change, a change in mind

And ending with a change, a change of heart

Oh, begin it with a change, a change in mind

But end it with a change, a change of heart

RAINBOW lyrics - Power

(Blackmore/Glover/Turner)



Everybody's sayin' that the times are getting rough

You gotta stay loose baby and you gotta be tough...oh

I get knocked down...get right back up again

Cause I never give up and I never give in...

Yeah - I'm gonna get my fill

Nothin's gonna stop me now and nothin' ever will

I got the...power

I got the power

Make some, break some ain't no big surprise

They're gonna wheel ya, deal ya, tell ya all the lies...(realize)

But I'm a hot shot, shoot em down let me be (that's me)

Cause I got nothin' for nothin' and nothin's ever free...no

Oh - so strong

All I gotta do is turn it on

Yeah - I'm gonna get my fill

Nothin's gonna stop me now and nothin' ever will

I got the power

Oh, I got the power

I can feel the power

I got the power

Yeah yeah yeah...turn it on



I can take anything that gets in my way

I don't worry 'bout tomorrow I just live for today...

Oh - so strong

Got that feeling when I turn it on

Yeah - I'm gonna get my fill

Nothin's gonna stop me now and nothin' ever will

I got the power

I can feel the power

I can feel the power...

Turn it on...

Power (can you feel it)

Power

(repeat)



(you can turn it on, turn it on, switch it on behind)

(Super charged...I can feel the power)

RICHARD WRIGHT lyrics - By Touching

(Harris)



By touching, they'll illuminate it, in the box, with the light-thing



Used to be glad

I heard her through your feelings

Seemed the perfect situation

Feeling different

Seems they're moving in

Circumstantial complication



Don't you need it

Don't you miss the closeness

Don't you feel it

Something's come between us



By surviving

Revitalising

We'll stop the fighting



Don't you need it

Don't you miss the closeness

Don't you feel it

Something's come between us



A new direction

A different understanding

An electric education

While the system

Program-close your eyes in

You forgot our desperation



Don't you need it

Don't you miss the closeness

Don't you feel it

Something's come between us



By surviving

Revitalising

We'll stop the fighting



By touching



Used to be glad

I heard her through your feelings

Seemed the perfect situation

Feeling different

Seems they're moving in

Circumstantial complication



A new direction

A different understanding

An electric education

While the system

Program-close your eyes in

You forgot our desperation



By touching

FLEETWOOD MAC lyrics - Bad Loser

(Christine McVie)



Well you thought you had a hold on me

But it's different now

Everything you done before has fell upon you now

Are you just a bad loser

But you never let go

(and you're gonna go down)

Yes you'll go down, but you'll never let it show

All the strings and strokes in the ocean

Won't buy you peice of mind

All because you did what you did

You're not the peaceful kind

You're just a bad loser

And you'll never let go

(and you're gonna go down)

Yes you'll go down, but you'll never, never let it show

I think you really know what I mean

But I'll tell you one more time

Oh cause it's the truth and you know it

That you're no friend of mine

You're just a bad loser

And you'll never let go

(and you're gonna go down)

Yes you'll go down, but you'll never let it show

GEORGE HARRISON lyrics - Ding Dong, Ding Dong

Ring out the old

Ring in the new

Ring out the old

Ring out the false

Ring in the true

Ring out the old

Ring in the new



Ding-dong, ding-dong

Ding-dong, ding-dong

Ding-dong, ding-dong

Ding-dong, ding-dong



Yesterday, today was tomorrow

And tomorrow, today will be yesterday

So ring out the old

Ring in the new

Ring out the old

Ring in the new



Ring out the false

Ring in the true

Ring out the old

Ring in the new



Ding-dong, ding-dong

Ding-dong, ding-dong

Ding-dong, ding-dong

Ding-dong, ding-dong

BOB DYLAN lyrics - Eternal Circle

I sang the song slowly

As she stood in the shadows

She stepped to the light

As my silver strings spun

She called with her eyes

To the tune I's a-playin'

But the song it was long

And I'd only begun



Through a bullet of light

Her face was reflectin'

The fast fading words

That rolled from my tongue

With a long-distance look

Her eyes was on fire

But the song it was long

And there was more to be sung.



My eyes danced a circle

Across her clear outline

With her head tilted sideways

She called me again

As the tune drifted out

She breathed hard through the echo

But the song it was long

And it was far to the end



I glanced at my guitar

And played it pretendin'

That of all the eyes out there

I could see none

As her thoughts pounded hard

Like the pierce of an arrow

But the song it was long

And it had to get done



As the tune finally folded

I laid down the guitar

Then looked for the girl

Who'd stayed for so long

But her shadow was missin'

For all of my searchin'

So I picked up my guitar

And began the next song

STATUS QUO lyrics - What You're Proposing

(Rossi / Frost)



It sounds so nice, what you're proposin'

Just once or twice, and not disclosin'

And not disclosin' how we're really really feelin'



What you're proposin' the other night

As I was leavin', I looks left and right

And not believin'

And not believin' that I'd finally be leavin'



What you're proposin', now get it right

If I'm composin', but then I might

Be runny nosin'

I might be runny runny runny runny nosin'

But you're supposin'



Don't be so sure, and just supposin'

We yell for more, and compromisin'

And compromisin' leads to really really feelin'



And just supposin', don't get me wrong

I'm only dreamin', it can't be long

I must be dreamin'

I must be dreamin', dreamin', only only dreamin'

Am I just supposin'



It sounds so nice, what you're proposin'

Just once or twice, and not disclosin'

And not disclosin' how we're really really feelin'



What you're proposin' the other night

As I was leavin', I looks left and right

And not believin'

And not believin' that I'd finally be leavin'

What you're proposin'

And not believin' that I'd finally be leavin'

What you're proposin'

What you're proposin'

What you're proposin'

THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS lyrics - Chess Piece Face

What's gonna happen to Chess Piece Face

There go I but for my face

All I know could be defaced by the facts in the life of Chess Piece Face



I don't know where he lives

Or if he knows to sail

Or if little schemes like this one ever cross his trail

But I don't believe he's dreaming

Or if he cares to know

So I shudder in my lampshade



So, what's gonna happen to Chess Piece Face

There I go but for my face

All I know could be defaced by the facts in the life of Chess Piece Face

Chess Piece Face

Chess Piece Face

THE BYRDS lyrics - Artificial Energy

(Hillman / McGuinn / Clarke)



Sittin' all alone now, I took my ticket to ride

Just a matter of time now till I'll be up in the sky



Coming up on me now, I'm king for the night

What's it gonna be now,

How hurtful things are brewing inside

Do you think it's really the truth that you see?

I've got my doubts, it's happened to me



Artificial energy is wrestling my mind

I've got a strange feeling

I'm going to die before my time

I'm coming down off amphetamine

And I'm in jail 'cause I killed a queen

THE HOLLIES lyrics - Slow Down

(Leslie / Day)



Got to stop from running

Got to make myself slow down

If I need some loving

Got to find some love around



I can't hold on

It's been so long

And I'd do anything

To find some love good love

If I slow down

If I take a look around

Maybe I'll come across

Some home sweet home



[Chorus:]

If I slow down

Yeah if I slow down

If I slow down

Yeah if I slow down



[Verse 2]



[Verse 1]

MADONNA lyrics - American Pie

A long, long time ago

I can still remember how that music used to

make me smile

And I knew that if I had my chance

I could make those people dance

And maybe they'd be happy for a while



Did you write the book of love

And do you have faith in God above

If the Bible tells you so

Now do you believe in Rock 'n' roll

And can music save your mortal soul

And can you teach me how to dance real slow



Well, I know that you're in love with him

'Cos I saw you dancin' in the gym

You both kicked off your shoes

Man, I dig those rhythm and blues



I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck

With a pink carnation and a pick-up truck

But I knew that I was out of luck

The day the music died

I started singing



Bye, bye, Miss American Pie

Drove my Chevy to the levee

But the levee was dry

And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye

Singing this'll be the day that I die

This'll be the day that I die



I met a girl who sang the blues

And I asked her for some happy news

But she just smiled and turned away

I went down to the sacred store

Where I'd heard the music years before

But the man there said the music wouldn't play



Well now, in the streets the children screamed

The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed

But not a word was spoken

Tho church bells all were broken

And the three men I admire the most

The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost

They caught the last train for the coast

The day the music died



We started singin'



Bye, bye, Miss American Pie

Drove my Chevy to the levee

But the levee was dry

And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye

Singing this'll be the day that I die

This'll be the day that I die



Bye, bye, Miss American Pie

Drove my Chevy to the levee

But the levee was dry

And good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye

Singing this'll be the day that I die

This'll be the day that I die



We started singin'

We started singin'

We started singin'

We started singin'

JIMMY BUFFETT lyrics - Rockefeller Square

Did you ever just want to lay down

Tell the world you've had enough

Did you ever just want to drop out

When the goin' got a little bit rough

Have you ever walked the sidewalks hungry

Have you ever really had the blues

So now you want to see how the other half lives

Well brother whatcha got to lose



Whatcha got to lose if you leave your home

And you never think of ever goin' back

Your father's makin' money for the good of the country

And your mother's out bettin' at the track



Camptown ladies sing them songs doo dah doo dah

Now you want to let your hair grow long

And get a little pad uptown

Throw away your checkbook and all your credit cards

And use your wits to get around

So you think it's gonna make you happy

See your story in the evening news

Makin' a game out of pointin' the blame

Brother whatcha got to lose



Hey lonely Rockefeller Square

The underground world don't fit a millionaire

Hey Rocky whatcha gonna do

First time you've ever had the pressure on you

But Rock when the rockin' and the bummin' is through

There'll still be piece of Daddy's kingdom for you



Rocky you sure hurt your mama

And your daddy's got an ulcer for you

With the stock market shot and the war's still hot

It was sure was a cruel thing to do



(So don't cry boy)

Hey lonely Rockefeller Square

The underground world don't fit a millionaire

Hey Rocky whatcha gonna do

First time you've ever had the pressure on you

But Rock when the rockin' and the bummin' is through

There'll still be piece of Daddy's kingdom for you



Money today money to pay

Don't you go gay

Rocky better pray

SIMON & GARFUNKEL lyrics - Sparrow

Who will love a little Sparrow?

Who's traveled far and cries for rest?

"Not I," said the Oak Tree,

"I won't share my branches with

no sparrow's nest,

And my blanket of leaves won't warm

her cold breast."



Who will love a little Sparrow

And who will speak a kindly word?

"Not I," said the Swan,

"The entire idea is utterly absurd,

I'd be laughed at and scorned if the

other Swans heard."



Who will take pity in his heart,

And who will feed a starving sparrow?

"Not I," said the Golden Wheat,

"I would if I could but I cannot I know,

I need all my grain to prosper and grow."



Who will love a little Sparrow?

Will no one write her eulogy?

"I will," said the Earth,

"For all I've created returns unto me,

From dust were ye made and dust ye shall be."

ENIGMA lyrics - Invisible Love

(Michael Cretu)



Oh rescue me, oh rescue me, my love

Oh rescue me, oh rescue me, my invisible love,

Oh rescue me, oh rescue me, my love,

Oh rescue me, oh rescue me, my invisible love,



I'll follow you, I'll follow you, oh rescue me,



Oh rescue me, oh rescue me, my love,

Oh rescue me, oh rescue me, my invisible love,

Oh rescue me, oh rescue me, my love,

Oh rescue me, oh rescue me, my invisible love

LOU REED lyrics - Animal Language

Miss Riley had a dog

She used to keep it in her back yard

And when the dog began to bark

All the neighbours began to shout

Then came a stormy night, Miss Riley let her dog out

And when the neighbours found him 'round

They put a gun down his mouth and shot him down

And he went: oooh wow, bow wow, oooh wow, bow wow



Miss Murphy had a cat, on her lap it sat

And once in a great big while

And once in a great big while

It looked like that Cheshire cat did smile

But one day it got so hot

That Cheshire cat had a blood clot

And she said: oooh meow meow, oooh meow meow



Then the dog met the cat

The dog was hot and the cat was met

Then came some sweaty dude

He put a board between the two

Then they couldn't get at it, got frustrated all about it

So they did the only thing you could do

They took the dude's sweat and shot it up between the two

And they said: oooh wow, bow wow meow, oooh wow, bow wow meow

GILBERT O'SULLIVAN lyrics - Doing The Best I Can

I'm doing the best that I can

Hiding my head in my hands

Proving without a conclusion or doubt a great deal

More than you'll ever feel

I'm giving up all that I know

It's possible to do and so

Here's to your mother

Who though I loved no other than she



Take off that silly grin

Put back that double gin

You'll need it in the morning

If I leave you without warning



[Break]



I'm noticing words have been spoke

Since the day I began being broke

Now when I hear the smell

Of sweet damm all I shall tell you

Take off that silly grin

Put back that double gin

You'll need it in the morning

If I leave you withou warning

I'm doing the best that I can

Hiding my head in my hands

Feeling the pinch and yet

Somehow I can't forget you

SONNY AND CHER lyrics - Superstar

Long ago and so far away

Ah I fell in love with you

Before the second show

Oh honey your guitar

Ah it sounds so sweet and clear

Ah but you're really not here

Cause it's just the radio



[Chorus:]

Ah don't you remember

You told me you love me baby

Ah you said you'd be coming back

My way again baby

Ooh baby, ooh baby

I love you, I really do



Oh loneliness of my God

Loneliness is such a sad affair

Oh and baby I can hardly wait

Oh don't you know I'm so hard up

I wanna sleep with you again

Oh but what's to say

Oh what's to say to bring

You back again, baby

Come back and play

Ooh do it to me baby

Do, do it to me

On your sad guitar



[Chorus]

ALPHAVILLE lyrics - For A Million

(Lyrics: Gold-Janey Diamond / Music: Gold-Lloyd-Echolette)



Oh, I love to dance

Under an alien sun

Along the dunes with you, I kiss you in the sand

We give so that we live

Beside the sleepy snakes

They dream of you and me when will they ever end

For a million years they dream

For a million years they dream

And the fog conceals and hides and eats our souls

Before they open up their eyes again

How far we'll be

Remember me



Won't stop loving you, although it seems to be

Our time is running out, I'm leaving you behind

No matter what they say, we'd never meet again

Our love is bigger than our lives

And we know that yesterday

The moon was brown

And that today it is black

And that tomorrow it is red

And we know that when we go to the sun

The moon comes along

(hello there!)

And the cows in the pasture graze

And we know that we know what we know

Is it truth?

DEPECHE MODE lyrics - Condemnation

Condemnation

Tried

Here on the stand

With the book in my hand

And truth on my side



Accusations

Lies

Hand me my sentence

I'll show no repentance

I'll suffer with pride



If for honesty

You want apologies

I don't sympathize

If for kindness

You substitute blindness

Please open your eyes



Condemnation

Why

Because my duty

Was always to beauty

And that was my crime



Feel elation

High

To know I can trust this

Fix of injustice

Time after time



If you see purity

As immaturity

Well it's no surprise

If for kindness

You substitute blindness

Please open your eyes

FRANK ZAPPA lyrics - Crew Slut

Act I



But one night, at the

Social Club meeting Mary didn't show up...

She was sucking cock backstage at The Armory

In order to get a pass To see some big rock group for free...



SCENE FOUR

CREW SLUT



Backstage at the local Armory, MARY, in her little white dress,

is wiping the remnants of her performance off the side of her mouth

as LARRY (the guy from the garage who quit the band in order to make

an honest living) zips up the front of his stinking boiler suit and sings

to the same teen-age girls who were stomping and clapping a little while ago,

as they kneel with their little pink mouths open near the crew bus,

hoping to save the price of admission by performing acts of Hooverism on

the jolly lads who set up the P. A. System.





LARRY:

Hey Hey Hey all you girls in these

Industrial towns

I know you're prob'ly gettin' tired

Of all the local clowns

They never give you no respect

They never treat you nice

So perhaps you oughta try

A little friendly advice



And be a CREW SLUT

Hey, you 'll love it

Be a CREW SLUT

It's a way of life

Be a CREW SLUT

See the world

Don't make a fuss, just get on the bus

CREW SLUT

Add water, makes its own sauce

Be a CREW SLUT

So you don't forget, call before midnite tonite

The boys in the crew

Are fust waiting for you



You never get to move around

You never go nowhere

I know yer prob'ly gettin' tired

Of all the guys out there

You always wondered what it's like

To go from place to place

So, darlin', take a little ride

On the mixer's face



Be a CREW SLUT

Just follow the magic footprints

Be a CREW SLUT

Hey, you'll love it!

Be a CREW SLUT

It's a way of life

I ain't gonna squash it

And you don't need to wash it!

CREW SLUT

Hey, I'll buy you a pizza

CREW SLUT

Of course I'll introduce you to Warren

The boys in the crew

Are only waiting for you



At this point, the road crew, as all road crews must from time to time,

borrow some of the big rock group's equipment and have a blues jam

session, indicating to the kneeling maidens that they are endowed with

a great deal of raw talent, as well as massive meat. Obviously impressed

with LARRY'S ability to suck so hard on his harmonica that screeching

little noises come out of it, MARY kneels again and reaches upward in

gestures of supplication, listening intently as LARRY continues to sing...





LARRY:

Well you been to Alabama, girl,

'N' Georgia too

'N' all the boys in thecrew

Is bein' good to you

I know yer sayin' to yourself

'This is the way to go

'Cause when you need a little extra

They will give you some mo'

'Cause you're the CREW SLUT



MARY:

I'm into leather...



LARRY:

That s good! A lot of the boys in the crew

Love leather...



MARY:

And rubber...



LARRY:

Yeh, they like rubber too... shrink - tubing

With a hair dryer...



ROAD CREW CHORUS:

Trade your spot on the bench

For a guy with a wrench



MARY:

Ha ha ha...



LARRY:

You like that, huh?

I told you you'd love it...

It's a way of life!



ROAD CREW CHORUS:

The guys in the crew

Have got a present for you!



MARY:

A present for me?



LARRY: We got a present for you!



MARY:

Whaddya got?

Whaddya gonna give me?



LARRY:

It looks just like a TeleFunken U-47

You'll love it...



MARY: With leather?



CENTRAL SCRUTINIZER:

Eherrr, eh eh...This is the CENTRAL SCRUTINIZER again...

And so MARY was enticed away from Joe

By an evil barbarian with a wrench in his pocket

Lured into a life of SLEAZERY

With the entire road crew of some Famous Rock Group (I don't know whether it

wasToad-O... I don't know... I'll check it out)

Again we see MUSIC

Causing BIG TROUBLE!

DIANNE REEVES lyrics - Blue Prelude

Let me sigh, let me cry when I'm blue,

Let me go away from this lonely town,

Won't be long till my sun will be blue,

Cos I know I'm on my last go round.

All the love I could steal, beg or borrow,

Wouldn't heal all the pain in my soul.

What is love? but a prelude to sorrow,

With a heartbreak ahead for your goal,

Here I go - now you know why I'm leaving.

Got the blues. what can I lose? goodbye!

What is love? but a prelude to sorrow,

With a heartbreak ahead for your goal,

Here I go - now you know why I'm leaving.

I got the blues. what can I lose? goodbye!

HUEY LEWIS AND THE NEWS lyrics - Simple As That

You go to work, work hard all day

At the end of the week, you collect your pay

That's just where it's at

It's as simple as that



You pay your bills the best that you can

But the rising cost sure hurts a family man

While the rich man gets fat

It's as simple as that



And the money goes so fast it ain't funny



Your mind's made up to get that house on the hill

But you just don't know if you ever will

Because you can't get the cash

It's as simple as that



Cause the man from the bank, he won't give you a loan

Without putting a morgage on all that you own

A tit for a tat

It's a simple as that



And the money goes so fast it ain't funny



Before you know it the kids are all grown

And married off with kids of their own

And it's all in the past

It's as simple as that



You've reached the autumn of your life

And all that's left is you and your wife

And a dog and a cat

It's as simple as that



And the money goes so fast it ain't funny

BETTYE LAVETTE lyrics - Nights In White Satin

(David Hayward)



Nights in white satin,

Never reaching the end,

Letters I've written,

Never meaning to send.



Beauty I'd always missed

With these eyes before,

Just what the truth is

I can't say anymore.



'Cause I love you,

Yes, I love you,

Oh, how, I love you.



Gazing at people,

Some hand in hand,

Just what I'm going thru

They can understand.



Some try to tell me

Thoughts they cannot defend,

Just what you want to be

You will be in the end,



And I love you,

Yes, I love you,

Oh, how, I love you.

Oh, how, I love you.



Nights in white satin,

Never reaching the end,

Letters I've written,

Never meaning to send.



Beauty I'd always missed

With these eyes before,

Just what the truth is

I can't say anymore.



'Cause I love you,

Yes, I love you,

Oh, how, I love you.

Oh, how, I love you.



'Cause I love you,

Yes, I love you,

Oh, how, I love you.

Oh, how, I love you.

BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST lyrics - Sweet Jesus

Where's the lady and the time I used to know

I think that I've been on the road too long

Scenes of better days are pictured in my head

And haunting me those old familiar songs

Oh sweet Jesus hear me cry

Let me see a clearing sky

For tomorrow I may be back home again

So take the shadow from my eyes



Sunday morning comes I'm feeling kind of down

I can't see back to where it all began

And I know you'd help me if you only could

I don't know why or where or who I am



Oh sweet Jesus hear me cry

Let me see a clearing sky

For tomorrow I may be back home again

So take the shadow from my eyes

Take the shadow from my eyes

URIAH HEEP lyrics - Name Of The Game

(Hensley)



Here comes trouble in the shape of a lady

She started cool but now she's coming around daily

She's got some big ideas about being my baby

It's her game with the name of love



Now she's sure pretty that I have to confess

But no five-star fox is getting me in a mess

Let's buy a ring, she says, let's go out and get blessed

It's her game and she calls it love



Rock & Roll rules my soul

Pushing everything and everyone to one side

But when it all grows old

The chill's still cold

When I sing with my sweet guitar

When I sing with my sweet, my sweet guitar



Don't waste your tears on me, go cry in the river

What you need I ain't about to deliver

I'm my own man and that's how I'm going to stay

'Cause music is the name of the game



Rock & Roll rules my soul

Pushing everything and everyone to one side

But when it all grows old

The chill's still cold

While I sing with my sweet guitar

While I sing with my sweet, my sweet guitar (repeat to fade w/ vocal adlib)

HELLOWEEN lyrics - March Of Time

Hours of lust, hours of tears passing by before my eyes

Today, tomorrow, yesterday. . .one life

Days of joy, day of sadness come and go to pass me by

A month, a year, one hundred years, they fly



[Bridge:]

Ohh, one day I will be gone to lead another life

Ohh, and this world will stop to turn around with me

'cause



[Chorus:]

Time. . .marches

Time. . .marches

On without us all, never stops, yes

Time. . .marches

Time. . .marches

On and on and on, flies eternally



Times of peace, times of fights, constant movement is our life

Can't stop no more, not until. . .we die

We long for more. . .eternity, and maybe there's another life

This one is short, no matter how you try



[Bridge:]

Ohh, but never give up all the hope to lead a good life

No, don't waste your given time to make things worse



[Chorus:]

Time. . .marches

Time. . .marches

One without us all, never stops, yes

Time. . .marches

Time. . .marches

On and on and on, flies eternally



[Solo]



Plese, please help me see, the best way to be

Make a change and we, live eternally

No more wasted years, no more wasted tears

Life's too short to cry, long enough to try



[Chorus:]

Time. . .marches

Time. . .marches

On without us all, never stops, yes

Time. . .marches

Time. . .marches

On and on and on, flies eternally

THE BANGLES lyrics - Make A Play For Her Now

Words of comfort and love

Spoken in design

Turn cruel, unkind

You have your ready treasure of sin

And it all begins

With an innocent smile.



Go on...

Make a play for her now

While I'm standing here

I bleed so slow

You may never know, wo-oh.



Whisper she is safe

That you sympathize

The darkest lies

When you know right now you'll be gone

At the kiss of dawn

Your conscience runs clear.



Go on...

Make a play for her now

While I'm standing here

I bleed so slow

You may never know

Oh, and I won't make a sound

Hey, who am I to lay the blame

When it's all a game to you.



You and I misfired

Left me cold and tired

Hey love, it's alright.



Go on...

Make a play for her now

While I'm standing here

I don't keep score (don't keep score)

No not anymore

Oh, and I won't make a sound

Hey, who am I to lay the blame

When it's just a game.



No, in the back of your mind

The pattern's starting to unwind

And you know you're alone (know you're alone)

Oh, and you smile anyhow

When the moment allows

Make a play for her now.

BAD RELIGION lyrics - American Jesus

i don't need to be a global citizen

because i'm blessed by nationality

i'm member of a growing populace

we enforce our popularity

there are things that

seem to pull us under

and there are things

that drag us down

but there's a power

and a vital presence

thats lurking all around

we've got the american Jesus

see him on the interstate

we've got the american Jesus

he helped build the

president's estate

i feel sorry

for the earth's population

'cuz so few

live in the U. S.A.

at least the foreigners

can copy our morality

they can visit but they cannot stay

only precious few

can garner the prosperity

it makes us walk

with renewed confidence

we've got a place to go when we die

and the architect resides right here

we've got the american Jesus

overwhelming millions every day

(exercising his authority)

he's the farmers barren fields

the force the army wields

the expession in the faces

of the starving children

the power of the man

he's the fuel that drives the clan

he's the motive and conscience

of the murderer

he's the preacher on t. v.

the false sincerity

the form letter that's written

by the big computers

he's the nuclear bombs

and the kids with no moms

and i'm fearful that

he's inside me

DREAM THEATER lyrics - Disappear

Why, tell me the reasons why

Try, still I don't understand

Will I ever feel this again

Blue sky, I'll meet you in the end

Free them, free the memories of you

Free me, and rest 'til I'm with you



A day like today

My whole world has been changed

Nothing you say

Will help ease my pain



Turn, I'll turn this slowly round

Burn, burn to feel alive again

She, she'd want me to move one

See me, this place I still belong

Give chase, to find more than I have found

And face, this time now on my own



Days disappear

And my world keeps changing

I feel you here

And it keeps me sane



So I'm moving on

I'll never forget

As you lay there and watched me

Accepting the end

I knew you were scared

You were strong I was trying

I gave you my hand

I said it's okay letting go time to leave here

And I'll carry on

The best that I can without you here beside me

Let him come and take you home

ROGER WATERS lyrics - What God Wants, Part I

What God wants God gets God help us all

What God wants God gets

The kid in the corner looked at the priest

And fingered his pale blue Japanese guitar

The priest said

God wants goodness

God wants light

God wants mayhem

God wants a clean fight

What God wants God gets

Don't look so surprised

It's only dogma

The alien prophet cried

The beetle and the springbok

Took the bible from its hook

The monkey in the corner

Wrote the lesson in his book

What God wants God gets God help us all

God wants peace

God wants war

God wants famine

God wants chain stories

What God wants God gets

God wants sedition

God wants sex

God wants freedom

God wants semtex

What God wants God gets

Don't look so surprised

I'm only joking

The alien comic cried

The jackass and hyena

Took the feather from its book

The monkey in the corner

Wrote the joke down his book

What God wants God gets

God wants boarders

God wants crack

God wants rainfall

God wants wetbacks

What God wants God gets

God wants voodoo

God wants shrines

God wants law

God wants organised crime

God wants crusade

God wants jihad

God wants good

God wants bad

What God wants God gets

MARVIN GAYE lyrics - This Poor Heart Of Mine

[Him:] Ooo heartburn, cold chills

Dizzy spells, I bite my fingernails

I don't think I'm gonna pull through

Everything depends on you

Only your love can save this poor heart of mine

Situation: desperate; honey, save this poor heart of mine



[Her:] Oh dark days, empty nights

Without your arms to hold me tight

I don't know how long I'm gonna last

So come back baby, I'm sinking fast

Only your love can save this poor heart of mine

Situation: desperate; baby, save this poor heart of mine



[Her:] Baby, you left me in a burning condition

[Him:] And my love, to you, has become my affliction

[Both:] Ooo you know my need for you

Is oh so strong it's like fire set up in my bones

Only your love can save this poor heart of mine

Situation: desperate; baby, save this poor heart of mine



[Her:] Oh I don't think I'm gonna pull through

[Him:] Everything depends on you



[Repeat and fade:]

[Both:] Only your love can save this poor heart of mine

Situation: desperate; honey, save this poor heart of mine
