GLEN CAMPBELL lyrics - Times Like These



[Originally by Foo Fighters]



I, I'm a one way motorway

I'm a road that drives away

Then follows you back home

I, I'm a street light shining

I'm a wild light blinding bright

Burning off alone



(Uh huh huh)



It's times like these you learn to live again

It's times like these you give and give again

It's times like these you learn to love again

It's times like these time and time again



I, I'm a new day rising

I'm a brand new sky

To hang the stars upon tonight

I, I'm a little divided

Do I stay or run away

And leave it all behind?



(Uh huh huh)



It's times like these you learn to live again

It's times like these you give and give again

It's times like these you learn to love again

It's times like these time and time again



(Oh [11x])



(Uh huh huh)



It's times like these you learn to live again

It's times like these you give and give again

It's times like these you learn to love again

It's times like these time and time again

It's times like these time and time again

It's times like these time and time again


THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY lyrics - Girl, You Make My Day



(Tommy Boyce & Bobby Hart)



I can't start my day, girl, without thinkin' about ya

I wake up in the mornin' and you're there on my mind

I've been dreamin' about ya

You start feelings runnin' through my head that need no explanation

And the sweetness of your smile has captured my heart

It's such a crazy sensation



[Chorus:]

Whoa, girl, you make my day

You're the smile on my face, you're the look in my eyes

You're every breath that I take

Whoa, girl, you make my day

And I love you so much, I'll prove it in a thousand ways



You don't know what it does to my heart when you're walkin' beside me

I feel like a man who could conquer the world, girl

When you're there to guide me

You're the sunshine that I hold deep inside me when I'm cold

You're my tears and my laughter

You're a thousand different girls that I've loved in different worlds

You're my forever and after



[Chorus 2x]


NINE INCH NAILS lyrics - Sanctified



It's still getting worse after everything I tried

What if I found a way to wash it all aside

What if she touches with those fingertips

As the words spill out like fire from her lips



If she says come inside I'll come inside for her

If she says give it all I'll give everything to her

I am justified

I am purified

I am sanctified

Inside you



Heaven's just a rumor she'll dispel

As she walks me through the nicest parts of hell

I still dream of lips I never should have never kissed

Well she knows exactly what I can't resist



If she says come inside I'll come inside for her

If she says give it all I'll give everything to her

I am justified

I am purified

I am sanctified

Inside you



Dear mom and dad, this is the hardest letter I've ever had to write

I'd hoped somehow to get out of this quickly so that you'd never have to know about it, but that just isn't possible now

I don't know what's going to happen, but what can I say to you? Will I'm sorry make a difference? Will it ease the pain?

The shame you must be feeling forgive me please



I'm just caught up in another of her spells

She's turning me into someone else

Everyday I hope and pray this will end

But when I can I do it all again



If she says come inside I'll come inside for her

If she says give it all I'll give everything to her

I am justified

I am purified

I am sanctified

Inside you



As surely as the blades course is run

Maybe my kingdom's finally come

YELLO lyrics - Tangier Blue



Dreaming of you all the colours of light

I'm fading away you drive me home tonight

We never get lost, you stay on the ground

We never get in just turning around

[Whispered:] Shining light


THE STOOGES lyrics - Dirt



Ooh, I been dirt

And I don't care

Ooh, I been dirt

And I don't care



'Cause I'm burning inside

I'm just a yearning inside

And I'm the fire o' life



Ooh, I've been hurt

And I don't care

Ooh, I've been hurt

And I don't care



'Cause I'm burning inside

I'm just a dreaming this life

And do you feel it?

Said do you feel it when you touch me?

Said do you feel it when you touch me?



There's a fire

Well, it's a fire

It was just a burning

Yeah, alright



Ooh!

Burning inside

Burning

Just a dreaming

Just a dreaming

It was just a dreaming

It was just a dreaming

Play it for me, babe, with love!


RICHARD LLOYD lyrics - Pretend



(Lloyd, Mastro, Smith, DeNunzio)



Pretend everything's fine,

Pretend that you are still mine,

Pretend you'll never change.

It was such a long time ago,

Then you turn around

And you still believe in dreams.



Pretend everything's right

Pretend that we never fight,

Pretend, but you don't comprehend.

It was such a long time ago,

And you turn around

And you are still dreaming.



I fall in love just dreaming,

And I dream

And never

And fall in love it's just pretending.



Pretend everything's fine,

Pretend that you are still mine,

Pretend, but you don't comprehend

It was such a long time ago,

Then you turn around

And you still believe in dreams.



Dreaming...

Just dreaming...


PATTY LOVELESS lyrics - Jealous Bone



Somewhere deep down inside of my heart

Makes me feel things that tear me apart

Got a jealous bone

Got a jealous bone

Ever since you walked into my life

Can't bear to see you out of my site

Got a jealous bone

Got a jealous bone



And I know I'm gonna run you off

If I don't learn to let you go

But oooh oh you make me lose control

I was born, with a jealous bone



See heads turn when you walk in the room

I know what they're thinkin' 'cause I'm thinkin' it too

Got a jealous bone

Got a jealous bone

I feel blood pound all through my veins

Every last part of me is callin' your name

Got a jealous bone

Got a jealous bone



And I know I'm gonna run you off

If I don't learn to let you go

But oooh ooh you make me lose control

I was born. with a jealous one

Jealous bone

Jealous bone

Jealous bone

Got a jealous bone



Got to have you baby

All to myself

Can't stand the thought of you

With anyone else

Got a jealous bone

Jealous bone

Jealous bone

Got a jealous bone

Jealous bone

Got a jealous bone

Jealous bone

Got a jealous bone

JONI MITCHELL lyrics - My Secret Place



(Joni Mitchell)



I'm going to take you to

My special place

It's a place that you

Like no one else I know

Might appreciate

I don't go there with anyone-but

You're a special case

For my special place

For my secret place



People talk to tell you something

Or to take up space

Guess I'm only talking

To be talking to

Your pretty face

I don't talk much to anyone-but

You're a special case

For my special place

My secret place



I was born and raised

In New York City

I'm just getting used to Colorado-

Oh street bravado

Carry me

Why did you bring me to

A place so wild and pretty?

Are there pigeons in this park-

Muggers after dark-

In these golden trees-

In the secret place?



I'm going to take you to

My special place

It's a place no amount of hurt and anger

Can deface

I put things back together there

It all falls right in place-

In my special space

My special place



Once I saw a film

In New York City

That was shot in Colorado-

Girl meets desperado

In the trembling mountain trees

Out of all of the girls that you see

In bleachers and cafe windows

Sitting-flirting with someone

Looking to have some fun

Why did you pick me?

For the secret place


GRATEFUL DEAD lyrics - Stella Blue



All the years combine, they melt into a dream,

A broken angel sings from a guitar.

In the end there's just a song comes cryin' up the night

Thru all the broken dreams and vanished years.

Stella blue. Stella blue.



When all the cards are down, there's nothing left to see,

There's just the pavement left and broken dreams.



In the end there's still that song comes cryin' like the wind.

Down every lonely street that's ever been

Stella blue. Stella blue.



I've stayed in every blue-light cheap hotel, can't win for trying.

Dust off those rusty strings just one more time,

Gonna make them shine, shine



It all rolls into one and nothing comes for free,

There's nothing you can hold, for very long.

And when you hear that song come crying like the wind,

It seems like all this life was just a dream.

Stella blue. Stella blue.

BUFFALO SPRINGFIELD lyrics - Carefree Country Day



I get up in the morning with a cock-a-doodle-do,

I get myself together if and when I chose.

I'm just buckin time, without a reason or ryme,

Oh what a wonderful way,

To spend a carefree country day

I got to have it that way.



I best get all my chores done, got some friends a commin' by.

There's a lot of country livin in just trying to get by,

I'm just buckin time, without a reason or ryme,

Oh what a wonderful way,

To spend a carefree country day

I got to have it that way.



I make myself a livin' off a haulin' on junk,

A man can live on thrivin from searchin' the dump.

I'm just buckin time, without a reason or ryme,

Oh what a wonderful way,

To spend a carefree country day

I've got to have it that way.


DEAN MARTIN lyrics - I Want You



I want the highest star to travel far

The things the world has seen

And speaking of the things the world has seen

I want you



I want a rajah's jewel, a swimming pool

The rarest treasures known

And speaking of the rarest treasures known

I want you



So soft your touch so sweet your kiss

So tender are your charms

And when my love I hold you near

The world is in my arms



I want a rainbow's gold a heart to hold

The greatest love of all

And speaking of the greatest love of all

I want you



So soft your touch so sweet your kiss

So tender are your charms

And when my love I hold you near

The world is in my arms



I want the rainbow's gold a heart to hold

The greatest love of all

And speaking of the greatest love of all

I want you


R. E.M. lyrics - Tongue



Call my name, here I come.

90 to nothing, watch me run.

You call.

I am ashamed to say.

Ugly girls know their fate.

Anybody can get laid.

You want a room with a fire escape.

I want to tell you how much I hate this.

Don't leave that stuff all over me. It pains me.

Please just leave it.

I should toss that vanity license plate.

Toss that make-up painted face.

Box those poems, chocolate cake.

Scratch that name on the record player.

Please just leave me be.

Don't lay that stuff all over me.

It crawls all over. All over me.

Call my name, here I come.

Your last ditch lay, will I never learn?

Caramel turn on a dusty apology.

It crawls all over me.

You turn all over.

It pains me.

Please just leave it.


R. E.M. lyrics - Daysleeper



Receiving department, 3 a. m.

Staff cuts have socked up the overage

Directives are posted.

No callbacks, complaints.

Everywhere is calm.



Hong Kong is present

Taipei awakes

All talk of circadian rhythm



I see today with a newsprint fray

My night is colored headache grey

Daysleeper



The bull and the bear are marking their territories

They're leading the blind with their international glories



I'm the screen, the blinding light

I'm the screen, I work at night.



I see today with a newsprint fray

My night is colored headache grey

Don't wake me with so much.

Daysleeper.



I cried the other night

I can't even say why

Fluorescent flat caffeine lights

Its furious balancing



I'm the screen, the blinding light

I'm the screen, I work at night



I see today with a newsprint fray

My night is colored headache grey

Don't wake me with so much.

The ocean machine is set to nine

I'll squeeze into heaven and valentine

My bed is pulling me,

Gravity

Daysleeper. Daysleeper.

Daysleeper. Daysleeper. Daysleeper.


FRANK ZAPPA lyrics - Jezebel Boy



[includes quotes from Perry Mason Theme (Steiner) and Jingle Bells (Pierpont)]



[Tower Theater, Upper Darby, PA

February 13, 1988]



Jezebel Boy!

You know all the guys

In the Sheriff's Patrol

They leave you alone

When they round up the whores

Up on Hollywood Boulebard



(What?

Now this is what happens in Los Angeles. . . )



Sometimes that ol' nasty D. A., you say

Thinks he needs his name

In the paper again -

That's when

The short-pants girls

They have to take that ride

With a friendly, friendly policeman



But the Jezebel Boy

On the corner by the Technicolor processing plant

He stands by the light;

Waitin' through that night

Waitin', waitin' for that, that distinguished-looking

Wilshire District Gentleman

With snow-white hair,

("Maybe I could make a good rock star")

To drive up in his Lincoln,

And whisk away the Jezebel Boy



There he goes now!

Old Ralph will make him put that wretched

Sausage in his mouth again



Ike: Hah hah hah! Hah hah hah!

FZ: Go ahead!

Ike: Hah hah hah!

FZ: Want that again?

Ike: Yeah, sure!



Old Ralph will make him put that wretched

Sausage in his mouth again

And again

(Again again)

Aaaaand. . . one mo' gin



Well, hah! Well, you know they say. . .

Another day,

Another sausage -

Jezebel Boy

DOLLY PARTON lyrics - Only Dreamin'



Oh I know, I'm only dreaming.

'Cos I'll awake, and you'll be gone.

And my tears will still be streaming.

As my broken, heart beats on.



Yes I know, I'm only dreaming.

But I'll just, keep dreaming on.

I will dream about the pleasures.

That we shared in days gone by.



And I'll remember and I'll treasure,

Every kiss and your kind eyes.

And I will dream that you still hold me,

In your arms as you did then.



And I recall each thing you told me,

Hear your voice as I did then.

Yes I know, I'm only dreaming.

But I'll dream, and I will too.



I'll be here, and I'll be waiting,

And I will dream, of your return.

Some will say I'm being foolish,

While some will say that I'm just blind.



And that I want to face what the truth is

That you are, no longer mine.

But I will dream, your brave retallion

To some sweet day, to their surprise.

You will say your love's still burning,

You'll dry each tear drop from my eyes.



But I know, I'm only dreaming,

Cause I'll awake and be alone.

And my tears will still be streaming,

And you will still be just as gone.



Yes I know I'm only dreaming,

But I must keep dreaming... on


QUIET RIOT lyrics - Demolition Derby



We're gonna take you to a demolition derby (yeah)



It's on a Saturday night and the boys want to rock

Gotta get some action, not yourself

Meet you at the ally

Everybody get about at night



School's out and we can't keep still

Gotta hold myself back and wait until

Tonight's the night

All hell's gonna break loose



We're gonna take you to a demolition derby

We're gonna make you topsy-turvy

We're gonna take you to a demolition derby

Now now now now now now now



The neighbors are screamin' "hey, stop that noise"

Give 'em a wink and shout "kill him, boys"

My daddy saw me now

He wouldn't let me out for a week



Trooby's got a sprain and Blondy's got his back

Noodle's with his action, better watch him for that

I've got my shoe shine in my pocket

Everybody's ready, let's go



We're gonna take you to a demolition derby

We're gonna make you topsy-turvy

We're gonna take you to a demolition derby

Now now now now right now



We're gonna take you to a demolition derby

We're gonna make you topsy-turvy

We're gonna take you to a demolition derby

Now now now now now now now NOW!



No no nooooooooooo!!



We're gonna take you to a demolition derby

We're gonna make you topsy-turvy

We're gonna take you to a demolition derby

Now now now now now now



We're gonna take you to a demolition derby

We're gonna make you topsy-turvy

We're gonna take you to a demolition derby

Now now now now now now now



We're gonna take you

We're gonna make you



We're gonna take you to a demolition derby

Now now now now now now now now

Now now now now now now now now

Now now now now now now now now

Now now now now now now now now

Now now now now now now now now

DIONNE WARWICK lyrics - Walk On By



If you see me walking down the street

And I start to cry each time we meet

Walk on by, walk on by



Make believe

that you don't see the tears

Just let me grieve

in private 'cause each time I see you

I break down and cry

And walk on by (don't stop)

And walk on by (don't stop)

And walk on by



I just can't get over losing you

And so if I seem broken and blue

Walk on by, walk on by



Foolish pride

Is all that I have left

So let me hide

The tears and the sadness you gave me

When you said goodbye

Walk on by

and walk on by

and walk by (don't stop)



Walk on by, walk on by

Foolish pride

Is all that I have left

So let me hide

The tears and the sadness you gave me

When you said goodbye

Walk on by (don't stop)

and walk on by (don't stop)

and walk by (don't stop)


ELOY lyrics - Awakening



Empty hall imminent bounding

cold black stones strangely surrounding

the first touch of mornin' light

I feel a strange vibration

any sign of reincarnation?

Did I loose my past beyond the night?

Sunbeams reflect in my mind's eye

Jeanne was the sun that passed on by

vibrations hate and die above

nothing could touch me - Jeanne was

LOVE


NEIL DIAMOND lyrics - Be Mine Tonight



I never needed to hear the truth

You never wanted to know

I never wanted to be unkind

But then something kept telling me go

There was something kept telling me go



We stayed together like birds in a cage

But then one of us had to get free

But who had the heart to say goodbye

Wasn't you, so it had to be me

Wasn't you, so it had to be me



You told me to go when I wanted to stay

Making me over in every way

Telling me just what to do with my life

But oh how I wish you could be mine

Oh how I wish you would

Be mine tonight

Be mine tonight

Tonight

Be mine tonight



We never knew it for what it was worth

It was worth more than we understood

We never got past the lies and the hurt

And it hurt even when it was good

Yes it hurt even when it was good



You told me to go when I wanted to stay

Making me over in every way

Telling me just what to do with my life

But oh how I wish you could be mine

Oh how I wish you could

Be mine tonight

Be mine tonight

Tonight

Be mine tonight



Tonight

Be mine tonight

Tonight

Be mine tonight



Tonight

Be mine tonight

Tonight

Be mine tonight

Tonight

Tonight


MEGADETH lyrics - This Was My Life



(Dave Mustaine)



It was just another day

It was just another fight

It was words strung into sentences

It was doomed to not be right



There is something wrong with me

There is something wrong with you

There is nothing left of us

There is one thing I can do



[Chorus:]

Lying on your bed,

Examining my head

This is the part of me that hates

Paybacks are a bitch

I throw the switch

Somewhere an electric chair awaits

Hey! This was my life

Hey! This was my fate



This was the wrong thing to do

This was the wrong one to be doing

This was the road to destiny

This was the road to my ruin



Now there's motives for the suspect

Now there's nothing left to say

Now there's method to the madness

Now there's society to pay



[Chorus]



In our life there's if

In our beliefs there's lie

In our business there's sin

In our bodies there's die



[Solo - Dave]



This was my life

This was my fate

DIANA ROSS lyrics - Tell Me Again



(Wintley Phipps)



You alone know how I feel down deep inside

I promised you I'll never stray from by your side

But now I'm looking back on all those yesterdays

The many times I let you down

I'm begging I can hear you say



Tell me again that you love me

And you'll love me till the stars fall from the sky

Tell me again that you love me

And the love you have for me will never die



I can tell when first we start to drift apart

The emptiness just takes hold of my wounded heart

You know I need to feel you by my side

'Cause when the night is cold and I've been so bold

There's no need to hide



Just tell me again that you love me

That you'll love me till the stars fall from the sky

Tell me again that you love me

And the love you have for me will never die



And if you light the way

I will follow you into that land of gladness

No more sadness



Tell me again that you love me

That you'll love me till the stars fall from the sky

Tell me again that you love me

And the love you have for me

The love you have for me will never die

STEVEN CURTIS CHAPMAN lyrics - I Will Be Here



(Steven Curtis Chapman)



[Genesis 2:24 / Matthew 19:5-6]



Tomorrow morning if you wake up

And the sun does not appear,

I will be here.



If in the dark we lose sight of love,

Hold my hand and have no fear,

'Cause I will be here.



[Chorus:]

I will be here when you feel like being quiet;

When you need to speak your mind, I will listen.

And I will be here when the laughter turns to crying;

Through the winning, losing, and trying, we'll be together,

'Cause I will be here.



Tomorrow morning if you wake up

And the future is unclear,

I will be here.



As sure as seasons are made for change,

Our lifetimes are made for years,

So I will be here.



[Chorus:]

I will be here, and you can cry on my shoulder;

When the mirror tells us we're older, I will hold you.

And I will be here to watch you grow in beauty,

And tell you all the things you are to me;

I will be here.



I will be true to the promise I have made,

To you and to the One who gave you to me.


DOLLY PARTON lyrics - Turn, Turn, Turn (To Everything There Is A Season)



To everything

Turn, turn, turn

There is a season

Turn, turn, turn

And a time to every purpose under Heaven



A time to be born, a time to die

A time to plant, a time to reap

A time to kill, a time to heal

A time to laugh, a time to weep



To everything

Turn, turn, turn

There is a season

Turn, turn, turn

And a time to every purpose under Heaven



A time to build up, a time to break down

A time to dance, a time to mourn

A time to cast away stones

A time to gather stones together



To everything

Turn, turn, turn

There is a season

Turn, turn, turn

And a time to every purpose under Heaven



A time of love, a time of hate

A time of war, a time of peace

A time you may embrace

A time to refrain from embracings



A time to gain, a time to lose

A time to rend, a time to sew

A time to love, a time to hate

A time of peace, I swear it's not too late


CAT STEVENS lyrics - If I Laugh



If I laugh just a little bit

Maybe I can forget the chance

That I didn't have to know you

And live in peace, in peace



If I laugh just a little bit

Maybe I can forget the plans that

I didn't use to get you

At home - with me - alone



If I laugh just a little bit

Maybe I can recall the way

That I used to be, before you

And sleep at night - and dream

If I laugh, baby if I laugh

Just a little bit -

VAN MORRISON lyrics - The Way Young Lovers Do



We strolled through fields all wet with rain

And back along the lane again

There in the sunshine

In the sweet summertime

The way that young lovers do



I kissed you on the lips once more

And we said goodbye just adoring the nighttime

Yeah, that's the right time

To feel the way that young lovers do



Then we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that we were

and the way that we were meant to be

Then we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that I was for you

and you were for me

And then we danced the night away

And turned to each other, say, 'I love you, I love you'

The way that young lovers do



Do, do, do, do...



Then we sat on our star and dreamed of the way that we were and the way

that we wanted to be

Then we sat on our own star and dreamed of the way that I was for you

and you were for me

I went on to dance the night away

And turned to each other, say, 'I love you, baby, I love you'

The way that young lovers do, lovers do, lovers do



Do, do, do, do....


DEEP PURPLE lyrics - Anyone's Daughter



I stood under your bedroom window

Throwing up a brick

No one came I threw one more

That really did the trick

Your daddy came and banged my head

He said what kind of man

Is this that's hanging 'round my girl

And threw me in the car

You're a farmer's daughter

You're a farmer's daughter

Why do I always get

The kinda girl I didn't oughta get

I won't get no more eggs and water

Now I've laid the farmer's daughter



Imagine I was a full-grown man

And I could talk just right

Could I come and see you here

And do this every night

Wham! The door comes crashing down

Your daddy's face all pale

Says come with me you hairy bum

I'll put you in my jail

You're a judge's daughter

You're a judge's daughter

Why do I always get

The kinda girl I didn't oughta v et

Now I'm getting jail and torture

'Cause I made the judge's daughter



It seems they're screaming law and order

When I go with anyone's daughter



Woman I should like some peace

And daddy hold your tongue

I think you're gonna die of fright

When I tell you what I've done

I can hear your tales and lies

You say I'm dumb and scraggy

But man this dumb and scraggy is

Your daughter's baby's daddy

She's a lucky daughter

Such a lucky daughter

Why did I always get

The kinda girl I didn't wanna get

Now I've got what I always fought for

'Cause I've married a rich man's daughter

THE HOLLIES lyrics - Tell Me To My Face



(Clarke / Hicks / Nash)



Will you try to justify the meaning

Of the note you sent this evening

To my door, you're not deceiving me

I'd have thought that you'd have known much better

Sending round an unsigned letter

Facing me would be much better now



Is it just that you can't face the future with me

Can't you tell me to my face

You just took the coward's way to say goodbye

How would you feel here in my place



If at last I think I'm glad to rid myself of you I'm sad

To think about the time I'll have to go

Then I'll turn and walk away so please don't beg for me to stay

Cause I know just what I will say to you



Is it just that you can't face the future with me

Can't you tell me to my face

You just took the coward's way to say goodbye

How would you feel here in my place



Tell me to my face you're leaving now

Tell me to my face you're leaving now



Though you try to justify the meaning

Of the note you sent this evening

To my door, you're not deceiving me

I'd have thought that you'd have known much better

Sending round an unsigned letter

Facing me would be much better now



Is it just that you can't face the future with me

Can't you tell me to my face

You just took the coward's way to say goodbye

How would you feel here in my place


K. D. LANG lyrics - Rose Garden



(Joe South)



I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden

Along with the sunshine there's got to be a little rain sometimes

When you take you got to give so live and let live or let go ooo oooo

I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden.



I can't promise you things like big diamonds rings

But you don't find roses growing fields of clover so better think it over

When if sweet talking you would make it come true

I'd give you the world right now on a silver platter but what would it matter

So smile for a while and let's be jolly love shouldn't be so melancholic

Come on and share the good times while we can



I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden

Along with the sunshine there's got to be a little rain sometimes



I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden

I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon

But if that's what it takes to hold you I just too soon let you go

But there's one thing I want you to know

You better look before you leap still water runs deep

And it won't always be someone there to put you out

And you know what I'm talkin' about

So smile for a while and let's be jolly love shouldn't be so melancholic

Come on and share the good times while we can



I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden

Along with the sunshine there's got to be a little rain sometimes


JOHN LENNON lyrics - Give Peace A Chance



(John Lennon & Paul McCartney)



Ev'rybody's talking about

Bagism, Shagism, Dragism, Madism, Ragism, Tagism

This-ism, that-ism, is-m, is-m, is-m.



All we are saying is give peace a chance

All we are saying is give peace a chance



C'mon

Ev'rybody's talking about Ministers,

Sinisters, Banisters and canisters

Bishops and Fishops and Rabbis and Pop eyes,

And bye bye, bye byes.



All we are saying is give peace a chance


ANNIE HASLAM lyrics - O Holy Night



O holy night! the stars are brightly shining,

It is the night of the dear Savior's birth.

Long lay the world in sin and error pining,

Till he appeared, and the soul felt its worth.

A thrill of hope the weary soul rejoices,

For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn;

Fall on your knees; O, hear the angel voices!

O night divine, O night when Christ was born!

O night, O holy night, O night divine.



Led by the light of faith serenely beaming,

With glowing hearts by his cradle we stand;

So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,

Here came the wise men from Orient land.

The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger,

In all our trials born to be our friend;

He knows our need, To our weaknesses is no stranger.

Behold your King, before him lowly bend!



Truly he taught us to love one another;

His law is love, and his gospel is peace;

Chains shall he break, for the slave is our brother,

And in his name all oppression shall cease.

Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we;

Let all within us praise his holy name;

Christ is the Lord, O, Praise his name forever.

His power and glory every more proclaim!


MARY CHAPIN CARPENTER lyrics - Mrs. Hemingway



We packed up our books and our dishes

Our dreams and your worsted wool suits

We sailed on the 8th of December

Farewell old Hudson River

Here comes the sea

And love was as new and as bright and as true

When I loved you and you loved me



Two steamer trunks in the carriage

Safe arrival we cabled back home

It was just a few days before Christmas

We filled our stockings with wishes

And walked for hours

Arm and arm through the rain, to the glassed-in cafe

That held us like hot house flowers



Living in Paris, in attics and garrets

Where the coal merchants climb every stair

The dance hall next door is filled with sailors and whores

And the music floats up through the air

There's Sancerre and oysters, cathedrals and cloisters

And time with its unerring aim

For now we can say we were lucky most days

And throw a rose into the Seine



Love is the greatest deceiver

It hollows you out like a drum

And suddenly nothing is certain

As if all the clouds closed the curtains

And blocked the sun

And friends now are strangers in this city of dangers

As cold and as cruel as they come



Sometimes I look at old pictures

And smile at how happy we were

How easy it was to be hungry

It wasn't for fame or for money

It was for love

Now my copper hair's grey as the stone on the quay

In the city where magic was



Living in Paris, in attics and garrets

Where the coal merchants climb every stair

The dance hall next door is filled with sailors and whores

And the music floats up through the air

There's Sancerre and oysters, and Notre Dame's cloisters

And time with its unerring aim

And now we can say we were lucky most days

And throw a rose into the Seine

And now I can say I was lucky most days

And throw a rose into the Seine

LORETTA LYNN lyrics - I've Got Texas In My Heart



(Mildred Burk - Ross Burk)



I'm packin' up my old suitcases to go see old familiar faces

Give me blue skies and sunny Texas weather

I crave the smell of good ole saddle leather I've got Texas in my heart

I've got a lotta friends in Amarrilo I like Dallas Forth Worth Houston San Antone

Got a pinin' in my heart to be in Texas I've said I'll wind up makin' it my home

I'm packin' up my old suitcases to go see old familiar faces

The Lone Star State has won my heart doggone it

And long horn steak with lots of ketchup on it I've got Texas in my heart

[ banjo ]

I love the western way they grab in Texas where that Lone Star hat is mighty plain

You can bet your boots and saddle I love Texas gonna hang and to go back there again

I'm packin' up my old suitcases to go see old familiar faces

Give me blue skies and sunny Texas weather

I crave the smell of good old saddle leather I've got Texas in my heart

(The eyes of Texas are upon you) I've got Texas in my heart


GREEN DAY lyrics - Jesus Of Suburbia



[Part I]



I'm the son of rage and love

The Jesus of suburbia

From the bible of none of the above

On a steady diet of



Soda pop and Ritalin

No one ever died for my sins in hell

As far as I can tell

At least the ones I got away with



And there's nothing wrong with me

This is how I'm supposed to be

In a land of make believe

That don't believe in me



Get my television fix

sitting on my crucifix

A living room on my private womb

While the moms and brads are away

To fall in love and fall in debt

To alcohol and cigarettes

And mary jane

To keep me insane

Doing someone else's cocaine



And there's nothing wrong with me

This is how I'm supposed to be

In a land of make believe

That don't believe in me



[Part II: City Of The Damned]



At the center of the Earth

In the parking lot

Of the 7-11 were I was taught

The motto was just a lie

It says home is where your heart is

But what a shame

Cause everyone's heart

Doesn't beat the same

It's beating out of time

City of the dead

At the end of another lost highway

Signs misleading to nowhere

city of the damned

Lost children with dirty faces today

Noone really seems to care

I read the graffiti

In the bathroom stall

Like the holy scriptures of a shopping mall

And so it seemed to confess

It didn't say much

But it only confirmed that

The center of the earth

Is the end of the world

And I could really careless



City of the dead

At the end of another lost highway

Signs misleading to nowhere

city of the damned

Lost children with dirty faces today

Noone really seems to careeeeee

HEY!



[Part III: I Don't Care]



I don't care if you don't

I don't care if you don't

I don't care if you don't care X5

I don't careeeeeeeeee



Everyone's so full of shit

Born and raised by hypocrits

Hearts recycled but never saved

From the cradle to the grave

We are the kids of war and peace

From Anaheim to the Middle East

We are the stories and disciples of

The Jesus of suburbia



Land of make believe

And it don't believe in me

Land of make believe

And I don't believe

And I don't care!

I don't care!



[Part IV: Dearly Beloved]



Dearly beloved are you listening?

I can't remember a word that you were saying

Are we demented or am I disturbed?

The space that's in between insane and insecure

Oh therapy, can you please fill the void?

Am I retarded or am I just overjoyed

Nobody's perfect and I stand accused

For lack of a better word, and that's my best excuse



[Part V: Tales Of Another Broken Home]



To live and not to breathe

Is to die in tragedy

To run, to run away

To find what you believe



And I leave behind

This hurricane of fucking lies

I lost my faith to this

This town that don't exist



So I run

I run away



The light of masochist

And I leave behind

This hurricane of fucking lies

And I walked this line

A million and one fucking times

But not this time



I don't feel any shame

I won't apologize

When there ain't nowhere you can go



Running away from pain

When you've been victimized

Tales from another broken HOME



You're leaving...

You're leaving...

You're leaving...

Ah you're leaving home...

AIR SUPPLY lyrics - I Can't Get Excited



(Graham Russell)



Every single feeling now

Would take my life into a year ago

You say you'll love me again

I can't say what I cannot do

It's been too long without someone

How could you let me sink this far away from you

Now you're here, wondering why you can't get near



[Chorus:]

I can't get excited

Can't get excited

There's a thousand things to do

I can't do anything with you

I can't get excited

Can't get excited

You can see me look right through

I don't feel like I used to do



I'm turning back the pages now

I've pleaded with you oh so many times

Trying just to make you see

Hoping I might be the one

So calm down love, it will be all right

The time to bring back love is not tonight

I never thought I'd have to say

That you should leave and go away



[Chorus]



Not in love

Still not in love with you

Not in love

I'm still not in love with you

Not in love

Still not in love with you

Not in love



Tell me why you can't leave me lonely

Tell me why I'm taking a chance on you

Taking a chance you



[Chorus]


SONNY AND CHER lyrics - Love Is Strange



La la love is, la la la la love is

La la love is, la la la la love is

La la love is, la la la la love is



Love, love is strange

A lot of people take it for a game

Once you get it you never wanna quit

After you've had it, it all fits



La la love is, la la la la love is

La la love is, la la la la love is

La la love is, la la la la love is

Strange



Many people don't understand

They say love is money in the hand

Your sweet lovin' is better than a kiss

When you leave me sweet kisses are missed



Sonny: Oh Cleo

Cher: Yes Ceasar

Sonny: How do you call your lover boy?

Cher: Oh, lover boy

Sonny: And if he doesn't answer?

Cher: I say come in lover boy

Sonny: And if he still doesn't answer?

Cher: Then I'd say



Baby

Oh, oh baby

My sweet baby

You're the one



Baby

Oh, oh baby

My sweet baby

You're the one



Baby

Oh, oh baby

My sweet baby

You're the one



Mmmmmmmmmmm



La la love is, la la la la love is

La la love is, la la la la love is

La la love is, la la la la love is


WHITESNAKE lyrics - Ain't Gonna Cry No More



(David Coverdale & Micky Moody)



Rising with the morning sun

I turn to greet the dawn,

Knowing I must face another day



Sleepless night behind me,

Just a memory of pain,

My heart has always been a cross to bear



Lord I know the sun shine,

But, I feel the tears of rain

Falling down to wash my sins away



I'll try hard to remember

So I won't be fooled again,

Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today



All around me, shadows fall,

Tho' day has just begun,

I realise I'm on my own again



Memories of broken dreams,

As distant as the sun,

Are drifting like an echo in the wind



Lord, I know the sunshine,

But, I feel the tears of rain

Falling down to wash my sins away



I'll try, hard to remember

So I won't be fooled again,

Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today



Babe, I thought about it,

But, it just ain't done good,

You hold my heart and soul within your hand



All the time, you're in my mind,

I never thought you could be so blind,

Maybe someday I will understand



Lord, I know the sun shine,

But I feel the tears of rain

Falling down to wash my sins away



I'll try hard to remember

So I won't be fooled again,

Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today, no more



Hey, mama you drive me crazy,

Knowing you're my hearts desire,

Why'd you go and hang me up this way



You've given me love, given me love,

Now tell me what you were thinking of,

Why'd you go and steal my soul away



Lord I know the sunshine,

But, I feel the tears of rain

Falling down to wash my sins away



I'll try hard to remember

So I won't be fooled again,

Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today



I ain't gonna cry no more



Lord I know the sunshine,

But, I feel the tears of rain

Falling down to wash my sins away



I'll try hard to remember

So I won't be fooled again,

Hey, ain't gonna cry no more today

Ain't gonna cry no more1



Hey, I ain't gonna cry no more today

WARREN ZEVON lyrics - The Indifference Of Heaven



(Warren Zevon)



Time marches on

Time stands still

Time on my hands

Time to kill

Blood on my hands

And my hands in the till

Down at the 7-11

Gentle rain

Falls on me

All life folds back

Into the sea

We contemplate eternity

Beneath the vast indifference of heaven



The past seems realer than the present to me now

I've got memories to last me

When the sky is gray

The way it is today

I remember the times when I was happy



Same old sun

Same old moon

It's the same old story

Same old tune

They all say

Someday soon

My sins will all be forgiven

Gentle rain

Falls on me

All life folds back

Into the sea

We contemplate eternity

Beneath the vast indifference of heaven



They say "Everything's all right"

They say "Better days are near"

They tell us "These are the good times"

But they don't live around here

Billy and Christie don't--

Bruce and Patti don't--

They don't live around here



I had a girl

Now she's gone

She left town

Town burned down

Nothing left

But the sound

Of the front door closing forever



Gentle rain

Falls on me

All life folds back

Into the sea

We contemplate eternity

Beneath the vast indifference of heaven


WARREN ZEVON lyrics - Let Nothing Come Between You



(Warren Zevon)



When my Mama met my girl, she took me aside

She's a soft-spoken woman but she speaks her mind

She said "De de de de de de de de de de"

Let nothing come between you

De de de de de de de de de de

Don't let nothing come between you"

I went to see my friend to ask his advice

He just smiled and, "She's good around the eyes."

But I'd already made up my mind

Let nothing come between us



There are frustrated people in town

Who might envy us and try to bring us down

We know they don't really mean any harm

That doesn't mean we've gotta let 'em hang around



Got the license--got the ring

Got back the blood tests and everything

Putting on my boutonniere--It's her favorite flower

Then I'm walking down the altar and I'm gonna take the vow

De de de de de de de de de de

Don't let nothing come between us

De de de de de de de de de de

Don't let nothing come between us



There are frustrated people in town

Who might envy us and try to bring us down

We know they don't really mean any harm

That doesn't mean we've gotta let 'em hang around



I have advice for the young and old

If I may be so bold

When you find someone to have and hold

Don't let nothing come between you

De de de de de de de de de de

Get together and let nothing come between us

De de de de de de de de de de

Get together and let nothing come between us

HAWKWIND lyrics - Waiting For Tomorrow



Moon streaming through the trees

I wonder what this means

Clouds forming into swords

Shining like I've never seen



Waiting for tomorrow

Hiding from tomorrow

Waiting for tomorrow

Hide from all our sorrows



Words written in the sky

Tell me, could this be a dream?

Silently, pilots are circling

Waiting for the unforeseen



Red alert goes through the world

The heavens are opening

Run to the shelter nearest you

Our planet's running out of steam



Waiting for tomorrow

Hiding from tomorrow

Waiting for tomorrow

Hide from all our sorrows



Moon turning red, trees are dead

I wonder what this means

Clouds have changed to sheets of mist

Like I've never seen



Waiting for tomorrow

Hiding from tomorrow

Waiting for tomorrow

Hide from all our sorrows



Stars are fading from the sky

Tell me, could this be a dream?

Silently, pilots land

Waiting for the unforeseen

Waiting for the unforeseen

Waiting for the unforeseen......


CHRIS DE BURGH lyrics - You And Me



The time has come for me to take my bows and leave the stage,

But I feel I'm just beginning,

There's so many things I want to say before I go,

But I'll be back, to sing again;



And I'll lead you through the ancient halls and stories of the past,

And the many ways of loving,

And when all is said and done, there's only you and me,

You and me...


MELISSA ETHERIDGE lyrics - Silent Legacy



Why did you steal the matches

From the one room motel

Once they gave you answers

Now they give you hell

They will never understand

They wonder where did they go wrong

How could you be so selfish

Why can't you get along



And as you pray in your darkness

For wings to set you free

You are bound to your silent legacy



You've seen it in the movies

And you've heard it on the street

Craving the affection

Your blood is full of heat

They don't listen to your reasons

As original as sin

Deny all that you feel

And they will bring you home again



And as you pray in your darkness

For wings to set you free

You are bound to your silent legacy



Your body is alive

But no one told you what you'd feel

The empty aching hours

Trying to conceal

The natural progression

Is the coming of your age

But they cover it with shame

And turn it into rage



And as you pray in your darkness

For wings to set you free

You are bound to your silent legacy



You are digging for the answers

Until your fingers bleed

To satisfy the hunger

To satiate the need

They feed you on the guilt

To keep you humble keep you low

Some man and myth they made up

A thousand years ago



And as you pray in your darkness

For wings to set you free

You are bound to your silent legacy



Mothers tell your children

Be quick you must be strong

Life is full of wonder

Love is never wrong

Remember how they taught you

How much of it was fear

Refuse to hand it down

The legacy stops here



Oh my child...


LUCINDA WILLIAMS lyrics - Over Time



Overtime

That's what they all tell me

That's what they say to me

Overtime

Your blue eyes, your black eyelashes

The way you looked at life

In your funny way

I guess out of the blue

You won't cross my mind

And I'll get over you

Overtime



Your pale skin, your sexy crooked teeth

The trouble you'd get in

In your clumsy way

I guess one afternoon

You won't cross my mind

And I'll get over you

Overtime



I guess out of the blue

You won't cross my mind

And I'll get over you

Overtime


ROY ORBISON lyrics - Falling



(Roy Orbison)



I'm falling, I'm falling, falling in love with you.

Baby, come closer, closer to me,

And listen, listen carefully.

Remember all the nights that I told you I loved you.

It wasn't true, I used you,

And you were just someone new

To thrill this lonely heart of mine.



I was lying all the time

Pretending to be falling in love with you.

But it's different now.

I've kissed you now, so forgive me, forgive me somehow.

Hold me tight for tonight, and tell me true,

If you still love me.

Say that you love me.



Don't leave me now, now that I'm falling for you.

I'm falling, I'm falling, falling in love,

Falling in love with you.



I'm falling, I'm falling, falling in love with you.

Baby, come closer, closer to me,

And listen, listen carefully.

Remember all the nights that I told you I loved you.

It wasn't true, I used you,

And you were just someone new

To thrill this lonely heart of mine.



I was lying all the time

Pretending to be falling in love with you.

But it's different now.

I've kissed you now, so forgive me, forgive me somehow.

Hold me tight for tonight, and tell me true,

If you still love me.

Say that you love me.



Don't leave me now, now that I'm falling for you.

I'm falling, I'm falling, falling in love,

Falling in love with you.


BILLY IDOL lyrics - Speed



Running from the nightmare

In the middle of the road

Hell's no place for sleeping

In a world beyond control

Caught in the headlights

Coming after you

When I woke up this morning

I had to do what I gotta do

Blast me to Heaven for loving you

Blast me to Heaven for loving you



Speed

Give me what I need

Yeah

White lightning

Let's speed, on speed

On wheels, on wheels

Speed

Oh, let it bleed

Yeah

Greased lightning

Let's speed, on speed

On wheels, on wheels



I've seen a train full of pain

On the edge of overload

We're in Heaven, baby

You are gonna implode

I've got these crazy feelings

That I can't explain

I've gotta save you baby

Or I'll die in vain

Blast me to Heaven for loving you

I said blast me to Heaven just for loving you



I said speed

Give me what I need

Yeah

White lightning

Let's speed, on speed

On wheels, on wheels

Speed

Oh, let it bleed

Yeah

Greased lightning

Let's speed, on speed

On wheels, on wheels



Blast me to Heaven for loving you

I said blast me to Heaven for loving you



Now I'm rushing on the run, yeah

I wanna have me some fun

I'll speed

Give me what I need

Oh, set me free

Let's speed

On wheels, on wheels, on wheels

Said speed

Oh, let it bleed

Yeah

White lightning

Let's speed, on speed

On wheels, on wheels

Com'on



I said speed, speed

Give me what I need

I said speed, speed

Give me what I need

Alright

MEGADETH lyrics - Kill The King



(Dave Mustaine)



Broken down, feeling naked

Leaving me unfulfilled

Promising compromise

Championing mediocrity



Time and time again

What you said ain't what you mean

Even if all my bones are broken

I will drag myself back from the edge to



Kill the King, The King is dead, Long live the King

Kill the King, The King is dead, Long live the King,

I am the King, God save the King



Kill the King, The King is dead

I am the King, Long live the King

Kill the King, The King is dead

I am the King, Long live the King



I reveal a deceiver

In the highest seat in the land

His idle hands the Devil's workshop

Generate more smoke than heat



Time and time again

What you said ain't what you mean

Even if all my bones are broken

I will drag myself back from the edge to



Kill the King, The King is dead, Long live the King

Kill the King, The King is dead, Long live the King,

I am the King, God save the King



Kill the King, The King is dead

I am the King, Long live the King

Kill the King, The King is dead

I am the King, Long live the King



A new precedent in pain, a new precedent in pain

Mankind is blown to dust, mankind is blown to dust

An explosion of the Brain, an explosion of the Brain

Spontaneously combust, spontaneously combust



Kill the King, The King is dead, Long live the King,

I am the King

Kill the King, I, The King is dead, I am, Long live the King,

I am the King

Kill the King, I, The King is dead, I am, Long live the King,

I am the King

Kill the King, I, The King is dead, I am, Long live the King,

I am the King


GILBERT O'SULLIVAN lyrics - Can't Think Straight (Spanish Version)



Si...Ooh, is Mary there?

No, pero

Well, if you see Mary

Will you tell her I called?

Tell her that I love her

And I'm sorry that's all

You see we had our very first quarrel today

I got really angry and I slapped her face

Now I'm sorry but what can I say

I love her so much

I can't think straight



Yo soy Silvia y te podria ayudar

Si en lugar de a ella me quisieras mirar

Te baбaria en oceanos de amor

Haria de tu vida un paraiso mejor

Y mira ya no puedo seguir

Te quiero tanto que ahora siento

Nublarseme el pensamiento



What about people other than me?

What about those with nothing to eat?

How can I claim that life isn't fair?

What a pathetic sight I swear

If I could kick I'd kick

Myself of course and if



No te amargues ten la seguridad

De que tambien ella se arrepentira'



Well in that case

Why won't she answer the phone?

Don't try and tell me

She's not at home

I'm sorry but what can say



Lo siento pero no se que decir



We're sorry but what can I say

I love her so much I can't think

What are we doing? What have we done?

What in the world is going on?

Isn't it crazy looking so fine

Knowing that in as much time

As it takes to make a drink

We could all become as the dinosaur has

Nothing but extinct

And to top it all I hear

That my rent is to be raised



So if you see Mary

Will you tell her I called

Tell her that I love her

And I'm sorry that's all

And by the way thank you for being so kind

If I've taken up too much of your time

I'm sorry but what I can say

Lo siento pero no se que decir

We're sorry but what can I say

I love her so much

I can't think

Love her so much

I can't think straight

And play a welcome for me

Cos I be coming home from sea

Angelina Angelina please bring down your concertina

And play a welcome for me

Cos I be coming home from sea

WEIRD AL YANKOVIC lyrics - Free Delivery



Late at night, you're hungry

You're craving some pizza

Let me be the one that you call



Olive or anchovy

Perhaps pepperoni

Anything you want, we've got it all



Near, far, I'll jump in my car

You just call in your order and I'm gone

You know, we hand toss our dough

Just tell me what you want and the toppings will go on and on



Deep dish, whatever you wish

Even get two for one with a coupon

You must try our special crust

But just don't eat too fast or your heartburn will go on and on


BAD COMPANY lyrics - Where I Belong



I'm making sure another late night drags on

Just one more drink, but you know I'm wrong

Sooner or later, when everyone's gone

You just shake your head and take my hand



You seem to know what it takes me time to tell

But then you know me, surprises me how well

You make me an offer that I can't refuse

Take my arm and walk away



Help me find my way home

Along this rocky road, 'cause I can't carry on

Will you head me to my bed

Ease my aching head, take me where I belong



Sometimes you smile at the clothes that I wear

You listen to reason when I just don't care

It's bringing me down, then I start to fall

You catch my heart and don't let it go



Help me find my way home

Along this rocky road, 'cause I can't carry on

Will you head me to my bed

Ease my aching head, take me where I belong



As I see you lay your head

I'm glad it's next to mine, mine, whoa



Won't you come on home?



Help me find my way home

Along this rocky road, 'cause I can't carry on

Will you head me to my bed

And ease my aching head, take me where I belong



Help me find my way home

Along this rocky road, 'cause I can't carry on

Will you head me to my bed

And ease my aching head, take me where I belong



Take me home

Take me home

NEW ORDER lyrics - Mr. Disco



How can I ever forget you

You don't know just what I've been through

The holiday we spent together

Lives with me now and forever



I tried but I can't find you

Tell me now what do I do

I tried but I can't find you

Tell me now what do I do



I can't find my piece of mind

Because I need you with me all of the time

I used to think about you night and day

I used to feel what language cannot say

Oh I can't find you

No I can't find my piece of mind without you



Maybe you'd write me a letter

And tell me why I never met you

Our rendezvous just ended in sorrow

Without you there's no tomorrow



I tried but I can't find you

Tell me now what do I do

I tried but I can't find you

Tell me now what do I do



I can't find my piece of mind

Because I need you with me all of the time

I used to think about you night and day

I didn't care what other people would say

Oh I can't find you

No I can't find my piece of mind without you



I can't find my piece of mind

Because I need you with me all of the time

I used to think about you night and day

I used to feel what language cannot say

Oh I can't find you

No I can't find my piece of mind without you



Ibiza, Majorca, and Benidorm too

I've searched all these places but never found you


ROD STEWART lyrics - Heart Is On The Line



(R. Stewart / J. Davis)



What do you want from me

When will you ever see

I gave it all nothing less

The feeling ain't mutual I guess

Why am I so confused

Why do I feel so used

This game at hand was made for two

But somehow I played without you



No I'm not sad

Nothin' lasts forever

Head over heels

Better late than never



Chorus:



My heart is on the line

Running out of time

Love stop making a fool out of me

My heart is on the line

Running out of time

Love stop making a fool out of me



Telling my friends you're fine

Even our favorite wine

But you're not there and it hurts

Nobody knows how it hurts

Maybe I thought I knew

That I belonged to you

I dreamed a dream I couldn't have

I foolishly let myself dance

Inside your eyes

Oh don't be sad

I should've known better

Why didn't I realize



(Chorus)



Love stop making a fool out of me

Love stop making a fool out of me



Whenever you call me up

Everything else must stop

My heart says stay but I go

'Cause I need you and you know

You're inside of me

I want you now and forever

Come on back to me



(Chorus)



My heart is on the line

Running out of time

Love stop making a clown out of me

Love stop making a fool out of me

Love stop making a clown out of me

Love stop making a fool out of me

10,000 MANIACS lyrics - Tension Makes A Tangle



(music: John Lombardo / lyrics : Natalie Merchant)



As frail hinges

Pivot on a case's door

Commemorative

Souvenirs from places

Containers change

With each occasion



A cellophane encased

Display of paper

Certificate

To credit years of service

A tool of central enterprises

The early hope

For permanence

The words

The rings

Consistency

The social security

A miracle is high tragedy



Thought mistaken

For a memory

Clear the dust from

Smiles in boxes

Pass a patterned wall

Recall their voices



A local post

Will list your friends

In order of

Disappearance

The lawn scattered



Tins feed birds

A portion baked for

Absent guests

And the mass edition icon

God sent comfort

Your salvation

But who grants absolution

For sins that

Never were committed



Tension makes a tangle

Of each thought

Becomes an inconvenience

Sound as it never penetrates

As servile edges

Break and

Feint



Thought mistaken

For a memory

A dress length

Assassination

A fractured family tie

Another christening



Christening

Christening

Christening


MISFITS lyrics - Living Hell



Imprisoned in this world of darkness few have known

A monster lusting blood and the hunger grows

Out on the street, dangers real, the killer's still at large

A trail of death through the sewers to the underground



I feel their fleeting life draw into my bones

Hear the heart that pounds, the blood that flows

Eternity, I damn thee, let me rot into the ground

As the empty veins collapse, cast them down



Living hell (whoah oh oh)

Living hell (whoah oh)

Living hell (whoah oh oh)

I just can't go on...In this living hell



This town has worn thin, everybody knows

Panic in the news and the terror grows

A tunnel full of filth escape into the night

Another hole to dwell in underground



I feel their fleeting life draw into my bones

Hear the heart that pounds, the blood that flows

Eternity, I damn thee, let me rot into the ground

As the empty veins collapse, cast them down



Living hell (whoah oh oh)

Living hell (whoah oh)

Living hell (whoah oh oh)

I just can't go on...In this living hell



In this living hell

In this living hell



I feel their fleeting life draw into my bones

Hear the heart that pounds, the blood that flows

Eternity, I damn thee, let me rot into the ground

As the empty veins collapse, cast them down



Living hell (whoah oh oh)

Living hell (whoah oh)

Living hell (whoah oh oh)

I just can't go on...In this living hell!


GEORGE STRAIT lyrics - In Too Deep



Ain't love a strain, ain't it a pain in your heart

I ain't worth the trouble anyhow

I'd like to give it up, I've had enough and I've done my part

But I'm in too deep to pull out now



Good things we've had are going bad and I don't know why

I'd turn it around if I knew how

I'm pushing aside all my pride and it's worth a try

'Cause I'm in too deep to pull out now



We need to get our love back on its feet again

We've come too far to let it come to an end



What can I do, I'm into you up over my heart

I've tried all that I know how

Doing all I can and I can't stand to see us fall apart

And I'm in too deep to pull out now



We need to get our love back on its feet again

We've come too far to let it come to an end



I can't step aside and let you slide right out of my life

It would 'cause more hurt than the law allows

I'll get us back on the track and it'll be all right

'Cause I'm in too deep to pull out now

SONNY AND CHER lyrics - Stand By Me



When the night has come,

And the land is dark

And the moon is the only

Light we'll see



No, I won't be afraid

I won't be afraid

Just as long as you stand

Stand by me



So darlin', darlin' stand by me

Oh stand by me

Oh stand stand by me

Stand by me



If the sky we look upon

Should tumble and fall

Or the mountains should

crumble to the sea



I won't cry, I won't cry,

No, I won't shed a tear,

Just as long as you stand me



Darlin', darlin' stand by me

Oh won't you stand by me

Oh, stand stand by me

Stand by me

Darlin', darlin' stand by me

Stand by me stand by me

Stand by me



Whenever you're in trouble now

Stand by me stand by me

Stand by me stand by me

Stand by me



Darlin' darlin'

Oh stand by me


MISFITS lyrics - Day Of The Dead



Hell is full time to empty

Human flesh feeding frenzy

Woah oh, "Here comes the dead"



Open graves, ghouls a plenty

Zombie army machine is ready

Woah oh, "Here comes the dead"



When the dead come arising

You see their eyes, you're hypnotized and

They eat your guts out

And now you're the "Living Dead"



When the dead come arising

You see their eyes, you're hypnotized and

They eat your guts out

And now you're the "Living Dead"



Oh, oh, "here comes the dead"

Oh, oh, "here comes the dead"

Oh, oh, "here comes the dead"

Oh, oh, "here comes the dead"



"Here comes the dead"

"Here comes the dead"

"Here comes the dead"



Here comes, here comes the dead


BRENDA LEE lyrics - Games People Play



(Joe South)



Oh, the games people play now

Every night and every day now

Never meanin' what they say now

Never sayin', what they mean

And to while away the hours

In the ivory towers

'Til they're covered up with flowers

In the back of black limousine



Lan, da da da da-da, Lan da da da da-dee

Talkin' 'bout you and me and the games people play



Oh', we make one another cry

Break a heart then we say good-bye

Cross our hearts and we hope to die

That the other was to blame

Neither one will ever give in

So we gaze at an eight-by-ten

Thinkin' 'bout the things that might have been

It's a dirty rotten shame



People walkin' up to you

Singin' glory, hallelujah!

And they try to sock it to you, ha

In the name of the Lord

They're gonna teach you how to meditate

Read your horoscope and cheat your hate

Come on, get on board



Look around, tell me what you see

What's happening to you and me

God, grant me serenity

Just to remember who I am

'Cause you're giving up your sanity

For your back on humanity

And you don't give a da, da da

FRANK SINATRA lyrics - If



(D. Gates)



[Recorded May 7, 1974, Hollywood]



If they made me a king I'd be but a slave to you

If I had everything I'd still be a slave to you

If I ruled the night, stars and moon so bright

Still I'd turn for light to you



If the world to me bowed yet humbly I'd flee to you

If my friends were a crowd I'd turn in my need to you

If I ruled the earth what would life be worth

If I hadn't the right to you



If I ruled the night, stars and moon so bright

Still I'd turn for light to you



If the world to me bowed yet humbly I'd flee to you

If my friends were a crowd I'd turn in my need to you

If I ruled the earth what would life be worth

If I hadn't the right to you


GARY BROOKER lyrics - Mr. Blue Day



(Brooker / Sutherland)



Every Morning - sunrise dawning

Shadows lifting - night clouds drifting

Rolling away

Open your eyes from dreaming

Look to the sky - the sun is streaming down.

Lightning up the world to greet us like a friend

Lending a guiding hand until the twilight ends

- No don't give us up Mr. Blue Day

- Shine out just enough through the cold grey

To lead us home again.

Every morning sundown

Shades of darkness draw round

Day is slowly dying

Night birds homeward flying on their way

- Can't stop the night from falling

- Can't stop the shadows calling to us all

From another world of timeless mystery

Out floating helpless on some far and lonely sea

- So don't give us up Mr. Blue Day

- Shine out just enough through the cold grey

To lead us home again.

QUEEN LATIFAH lyrics - Fly Girl



Well, it's almost nightfall

And there's no forecast of rainfall

And I'm in the mood for a party

So I'm gonna go out to a club

And give the dancefloor body

So I jump in the car and go to the venue

Walk in the door and now I'm on the menu

Guys in the house, they're wacthing me

They're clocking me, there's no stopping me



[Refrain:]

(desire) I know you want me

(you're fine) thank you

But I'm not the type of girl that you think I am

I don't jump into the arms of every man

(but I'm paid) I don't need your money

(I love you) you must be mad

Easy lover is something that I ain't

Besides, I don't know you from a can of paint



Tell me why is it when I walk past the guys

I always hear, yo, baby?

I mean like what's the big idea?

I'm a queen, nuff respect

Treat me like a lady

And, no, my name ain't yo and I ain't got your baby

I'm looking for a guy who's sincere

One with class and savoir faire

I'm looking for someone who has to be

Perfect for the queen latifah me



(fly girl, fly girl)

(come here, cuz you're sexy and you're fine)

(and I want you to be mine)

(fly girl, fly girl)

(have no fear, your heart is in good hands)

(won't you let me be your man? )



All my friends are in relationships

Some of then good ones and some of them bad ones

Some of the bad ones took a turn for the better

And some of the good ones ended up sad ones

You see? loving, it ain't hard to get

I want a friend not just a lover

Someone who is dedicated only to me

Not to me and two or three others

One who will not lie to me or think

He can get my love by buying me

I know I'll find him some day

And when I find him

He sure won't say



[Refrain]



(fly girl, fly girl

(come here, cuz you're sexy and you're fine)

(and I want you to be mine)

(fly girl, fly girl, have no fear)

(have no fear, your heart is in good hands)

(won't you let me be your man? )



Lounging, sitting in the house

And I'm cooling, first day of the week

So there's nothing to do

And I'm in the mood for a real soft kiss

Momma never said there'll be days like this

So I called her and we talked for a while

Hang up the phone feeling better

With a smile



It's cool, cuz 91 is my year

And this time I know I'm gonna hear



(fly girl, fly girl, come here)

(come here, cuz you're sexy and you're fine)

(and I want you to be mine)

(fly girl, fly girl)

(have no fear, your heart is in good hands)

(won't you let me be your man? )



[Refrain]



Fly girl [15x]


ROBERT CRAY lyrics - Forecast (Calls For Pain)



Coffee for my breakfast

Shot of whiskey on the side

It's a dark and dreary morning

With the clouds covering up the sky



[Chorus:]

The forecast calls for pain

The forecast calls for pain

My baby's turning cold

And the forecast calls for pain



We stayed up all night talking

She's grown restless she confessed

She says there's no one new

But deep down I know that's next



[Chorus]



She says she tried and tried yes she has

But slowly her love has died

I can see that deep down inside she's changed

The forecast calls for pain

The forecast calls for pain

The forecast calls for pain

Yeah, yeah, yeah



I can hear approaching thunder

I can feel chills run up my spine

I've seen love freeze before

And I know I'm on borrowed time



[Chorus]



I can feel the thunder

I can see the lightning

I can feel the pain

Oh, it's gonna rain



[Chorus]

ERIC CLAPTON lyrics - Days Of Old



(Riley B. King and Jules Bihari)



Way back yonder in the days of old,

The men was working but not saving any dough.

Then came a woman looking real cool.

She said to herself, "Now that's my fool."



[Chorus:]

I'm gonna ball tonight.

I'm gonna ball tonight.

Well, I can't break the rule because

Every man is some woman's fool.



Met a girl on the avenue,

She was shy and I was blue,

Like a teacher and a student in school,

Looked at me and said, "You're my fool."



[Chorus]



[Repeat First Verse]



[Chorus]



We're gonna ball tonight.

We're gonna ball tonight.

We're gonna ball tonight.

We're gonna ball tonight.

Well I can't break the rule because

Every man is some woman's fool.


GRAHAM NASH lyrics - There's Only One



We can heed the call

We can trip and fall

We can read the scrawl on the garden wall

Let the ashes fall

Upon us all or not at all it's in us all

Can we say it's cool

From a heated pool

When we give a jewel to a starving fool

And if we can't be cruel

Then let us take the tool

And change the rule, change the rule

When we've all begun to see the world we're on

Don't you see there's only one

Then we'll all begin to see the skin we're in

It's just the same

There's only one

There's only one

Do we have the grace to begin the race

In another place

Face to face

Do we stand the pace or do we let the case go to

Waste, got to waste, go to waste

Do you like the taste


OZZY OSBOURNE lyrics - See You On The Other Side



(O. Osbourne - L. Kilmister - Z. Wylde)



Voices, a thousand, thousand voices

Whispering, the time has passed for choices

Golden days are passing over, yeah



I can't seen to see you baby

Although my eyes are open wide

But I know I'll see you once more



When I see you, I'll see you on the other side

Yes, I'll see you, I'll see you on the other side



Leaving, I hate to see you cry

Grieving, I hate to say goodbye

Dust and ash forever, yeah



Though I know we must be parted

As sure as stars are in the sky

I'm gonna see you when it comes to glory



And I'll see you, I'll see you on the other side

Yes, I'll see you, I'll see you on the other side



Never thought I'd feel like this

Strange to be alone, yeah

But we'll be together

Carved in stone, carved in stone, carved in stone



Hold me, hold me tight I'm falling

Far away, distant voices calling

I'm so cold, I need you darling, yeah



I was down, but now I'm flying

Straight across the great divide

I know you're crying, but I'll stop you crying



When I see you I see you on the other side

Yes, I'll see you, see you on the other side

I'm gonna see you, see you on the other side

God knows I'll see you, see you on the other side, yeah



I'll see you, see you on the other side

I'm gonna see you, see you on the other side

God knows I'll see you, see you on the other side, yeah

I wanna see you, yeah, yeah, yeah, see you on the other side

God knows I'll see you, see you on the other side


GRATEFUL DEAD lyrics - Goin' Down The Road Feeling Bad



Goin' down the road feelin' bad.

Goin' down the road feelin' bad.

Goin' down the road feelin' bad.

I don't want to be treated this away.



Goin' where the climate suits my clothes.

Goin' where the climate suits my clothes.

Goin' where the climate suits my clothes.

I don't want to be treated this away.



Goin' down the road feelin' bad.

Goin' down the road feelin' bad.

Goin' down the road feelin' bad.

I don't want to be treated this away.



Goin' where the water tastes like wine.

Goin' where the water tastes like wine.

Goin' where the water tastes like wine.

I don't want to be treated this away.



Goin' down the road feelin' bad.

Goin' down the road feelin' bad.

Goin' down the road feelin' bad.

I don't want to be treated this away.



Goin' where the chilly winds don't blow.

Goin' where the chilly winds don't blow.

Goin' where those chilly winds don't blow.

I don't want to be treated this away.

BRYAN ADAMS lyrics - Depend On Me



When you're losin' direction

Baby you can depend on me

For a little love and affection

You can depend on me

If ya feel brokenhearted and you just can't get started

You can depend on me

Ya know it's never easy and when you're feelin' blue

There'll be times you feel so empty

Ya sometimes I feel it too



Like sister to brother - father to mother

We live for each other - we're lover to lover

As deep as an ocean - filled with emotion

I'm forever open - can't you see

Baby you can depend on me

Depend on me - depend on me



For someone to rely on and a shoulder to cry on

You can depend on me

If you're in need of some kindness

And you can't seem to find it

You can depend on me

Well there ain't no need to worry you know we'll get along

Those dark clouds may surround you

But together we'll be strong



Like sister to brother - father to mother

We live for each other - we're lover to lover

As deep as an ocean - filled with emotion

I'm forever open - can't you see

Baby you can depend on me

Depend on me - depend on me



Your love is a guiding light

I've been watchin' it shine - shine on baby

When hard times are all around

And there's miles and miles of dirty road - depend on me

There's no need to carry that heavy load - depend on me

When hope is gone and all is lost

Just reach out - take my hand

I'll be there - I'll be your man

Depend on me


BEE GEES lyrics - Reaching Out



Watching ev'ry day go by, living in a foolish game

Just the way I feel today

Living my life without you

Never hear a single word, living in a lullaby

Praying ev'ry tear I cry

Living my life without you

And ev'rywhere you go I fly (I love you with a special feeling)

And darling till the day I die (baby never stop believing)

I'll be reaching out, I'll be reaching out, Ahh....

Reaching out (there's a woman goin' through me)

I'll be reaching out ( got a chance to hold you to me ) Ahh..

Ev'rything is lonely and I need you

Living my life forever, forever



Watching ev'ry day go by

Living on the one I love

What I got is not enough

Living my life without you

And I believe in yesterday (yesterday was once tomorrow)

With love, with love wide open ev'ry way(baby you're the light I follow)

I'll be reaching out, I'll be reaching out, Ahh

Reaching out (there's a woman going through me)

I'll be reaching out (got a chance to hold you to me)

Ev'rything is lonely and I need you

Living my life forever

I'll be reaching out

I'll be reaching out

Reaching out

I'll be reaching out

Living my life forever



Reaching out, I'll be reaching out (repeat and fade )

JOHN (COUGAR) MELLENCAMP lyrics - Last Chance



A cold day in December

And I'm still here alone

I look through my window and I surrender

Should be gone

But I've not place to go



[Chorus:]

Last chance to get up

Last chance to go

Last chance to get up and go

Last chance to get up

Last chance to go

Last chance to get up and go



If there were someone

I'd hold her

If there was love

I'd let it take me away

But I just stay here alone



[Chorus]



I feel nothing I feel no pain

I feel no joy nor hurt inside

I only have myself to blame

If I see that the world's past me by



[Chorus]


STEELY DAN lyrics - Black Friday



When Black Friday comes

I'll stand down by the door

And catch the grey men when they

Dive from the fourteenth floor

When Black Friday comes

I'll collect everything I'm owed

And before my friends find out

I'll be on the road

When Black Friday falls you know it's got to be

Don't let it fall on me

When Black Friday comes

I'll fly down to Muswellbrook

Gonna strike all the big red words

From my little black book

Gonna do just what I please

Gonna wear no socks and shoes

With nothing to do but feed

All the kangaroos

When Black Friday comes I'll be on that hill

You know I will



When Black Friday comes

I'm gonna dig myself a hole

Gonna lay down in it 'til

I satisfy my soul

Gonna let the world pass by me

The Archbishop's gonna sanctify me

And if he don't come across

I'm gonna let it roll

When Black Friday comes

I'm gonna stake my claim

I'll guess I'll change my name

JOURNEY lyrics - Easy To Fall



(Perry, Schon, Cain)



In the morning, sunlight shining

The face in the mirror knows the crime

Voices cry from the darkness

A broken promise one more time



[Chorus:]

You say you believe in love

And still you run

You only believe in God when you come undone



So here you are

You brought everything on yourself

So easy to fall

When you're all alone by yourself



He said he's tried everything he could

A fool's illusion one more lie

There'll be demons waitin' in the shadows of a concrete world

Tears are runnin' tonight



[Chorus]



Words unspoken

The words unspoken

The words unspoken

The words unspoken


TOO $HORT (TOO SHORT) lyrics - Pimp Life



[Too $hort:]

I chose to live this life



[Devin the Dude - singing:]

I be stickin this dick up in these hoes hoes

'til a couple of bitches bitches get caught by they niggaz



[Devin the Dude:]

Niggaz trippin - and for what?

Why must he think he 'posed to change her

When she'll give the pussy up even to a, total stranger

And, I'm just one of 'em, you can't trust none of them

They'll say they love you while they wipin your cum on them

Then they'll run and tell her friends how she found another sucker

To pay a fee for pus-sy but not - me, motherfuckahHHH

I move quick with my pool stick, Slicker than Willie

Slicker than Kelly, slicker than KY Jelly

But really this dick has got me in a lot of trouble recently

I bend 'em and go in 'em and don't even have the decency

To call her, my balls have been leaked of most of their fluids

I used to put the rubber on and skeet straight through it

And it seems, that I always keep my pipe in these hoes

Keep my mic at these shows, cause that's the life that I chose



[Devin the Dude - singing:]

Pimp life!

I chose to live the - pimp life!



[Bun B of U. G.K.:]

Come talk a walk up in my shoes, pay a couple of my dues

Roll my boulevard on trues, while your lady sings the blues

Got everythang to lose, not a damn thang to gain

I be tryin to cross the line, but with that I gotta bring the pain

Now I tried to compromise, see the other side of the story

But that's easier said that done, when it comes to your pride & your glory

I'm a pimp with a glide in my worries, limp pimp I'ma step when I wreck

But my armor's on at all times, cause I gots me a rep to protect

Now I mights be known for this, and maybe recognized for that

But they be high-beamin me; and I be like where my visors at?

Nowadays I'm a wiser cat, after what I been through I better be

Back then I woulda broke ya broad, nowadays I just let her be

Cause through seconds minutes hours days weeks months and years

Man I reckon that it's power fuckin freaks blunts and beers

That ain't what I'm supposed to be



[Devin:] Pimp life!

[Bun B:] That's the life I chose for me



[Devin the Dude - singing:]

I be stickin this dick up in these hoes hoes

'til a couple of bitches bitches get caught by they niggaz

Niggaz trippin



[$hort:] I chose to live the

[Devin:] Pimp life!



[Too $hort:]

Yeah I have menage-a-trois with superstars, one night stands, quickies

Booty calls, it ain't nuttin for her to just stick around here and lick me

Cause I run through broads and never get enough, maybe I'm too selfish

But I cain't help it.. can't stay witchu girl cause I can't tell if it's

Official, or just another ritual

It's hard for me to find a wife, it's nothin for me to, get a hoe

I know it sounds, pitiful, sometimes I'm blessed, sometimes I'm cursed

If it's supposed to be the best then tell me, what's the worst?

I'll be a P-F-L, 'til I'm a old nigga

Cause I never spend my life with groupies, or golddiggers

I see these bitches now, shake it naked tryin to make it

If you spendin all his money take it bitch you can't fake it

When it's real, I'm cappin like the snub-nosed, they pay me

I love hoes, never go home when the club close

I do shows, ride new vogues and keep two hoes

I'm all about this money girl, that's why I chose

To live the pimp life



[Devin:] Pimp life!

[$hort:] I chose to live this life

[Devin:] Pimp life.. pimp life!

[Devin:] I chose to live the, pimp life



[Big Gipp]

People ask me question bout this, people ask me question bout that

Say what? I'm a handsome John motherfucker independent of the nasty-ass cuts

Young, Gipp, still around the corner in the hood

Gipp, still runnin down in the wood

Gipp, still ridin out like vogues

Gipp, still cruise hundred spokes

Straight from the 80's ladies

Grew up in nuttin but dem Grady babies

Pimpin the game since ninety-six

Can't sell a big ol' pimp no box of bricks

Gipp put it down for the A-Town to the Bay to the Oakland foothill strip

Too $hort, Bun B, Devin and Big Gipp yo we all some pimps

Gettin money out the sexual industries
