WEIRD AL YANKOVIC lyrics - Hummingbirds

I love to watch the Hummingbirds just hovering for hours

They look like mini helicopters pollinating flowers

And yet I still feel sorry for the little Hummingbirds

They always have to hum because they never learned the words

MORRISSEY lyrics - (I'm) The End Of The Family Line

With no complications

fifteen generations

(of mine)

all honouring Nature

until I arrive

(with incredible style)

I'm the end fo the line

the end of the family line

the end of the line

No baby pulled screaming

out into this seething whirl

by chance or whim

(or even love?)

our family tree hacked into decline

and I'm spared the pain

of ever saying

("goodbye")

I'm the end of the line

the end of the family line

the end of the line

LED ZEPPELIN lyrics - Rock And Roll

It's been a long time since I rock and rolled,

It's been a long time since I did the Stroll.

Ooh, let me get it back, let me get it back,

Let me get it back, baby, where I come from.

It's been a long time, been a long time,

Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time. Yes it has.



It's been a long time since the book of love,

I can't count the tears of a life with no love.

Carry me back, carry me back,

Carry me back, baby, where I come from.

It's been a long time, been a long time,

Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.



Seems so long since we walked in the moonlight,

Making vows that just can't work right.

Open your arms, opens your arms,

Open your arms, baby, let my love come running in.

It's been a long time, been a long time,

Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time.

MARIANNE FAITHFULL lyrics - Blood In My Eyes

Woke up this morning, feeling blue

Seen a good looking girl, can I make love with you

Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you

Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you

I got blood in my eyes for you, baby

I don't care what in the world you do.



I went back home, put on my tie

Gonna get that girl that money will buy

Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you

Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you

I got blood in my eyes for you, baby

I don't care what in the world you do.



She looked at me, begin to smile

Said, "Hey, hey, man, can't you wait a little while?"

No, no babe, I got blood in my eyes for you

No, no babe, I got blood in my eyes for you

Got blood in my eyes for you, baby

I don't care what in the world you do.



No, no, ma'am, I can't wait

You got my money, now you're trying to break this date

Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you

Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you

Got blood in my eyes for you, baby

I don't care what in the world you do.



I'll tell you something, tell you the facts

You don't want to give my money back

Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you

Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you

I got blood in my eyes for you, baby

I don't care what in the world you do.

ELLA FITZGERALD lyrics - Slap That Bass

Zoom zoom zoom zoom

The world is in a mess

With politics and taxes

And people grinding axes

There's no happiness



Zoom zoom zoom zoom

Rhythm lead your ace

The future doesn't fret me

If I can only get me

Someone to slap that bass



Happiness is not a riddle

When I'm listening to that

Big bass fiddle



Slap that bass

Slap it till its dizzy

Slap that bass

Keep the rhythm busy

Zoom zoom zoom

Misery, you've got to go



Slap that bass

Use it like a tonic

Slap that bass

Keep your philharmonic

Zoom zoom zoom

And the milk and honey'll flow



Dictators would be better off

If they zoom zoom now and then

Today, you can see that the happiest men

All got rhythm



In which case

If you want a bauble

Slap that bass

Slap away your trouble

Learn to zoom zoom zoom

Slap that bass



[Bridge]



Dictators would be better off

If they zoom zoom now and then

Today, you can see that the happiest men

All got rhythm



In which case

If you want a bauble

Slap that bass

Slap away your trouble

Learn to zoom zoom zoom

Slap that bass



Zoom zoom zoom zoom

Zoom zoom zoom zoom

BILLY JOEL lyrics - Leave A Tender Moment Alone

Even though I'm in love

Sometimes I get so afraid

I'll say something so wrong

Just to have something to say



I know the moment isn't right

To tell the girl a comical line

To keep the conversation light

I guess I'm just frightened out of my mind

But if that's how I feel

Then it's the best feeling I've ever known

It's undeniably real

Leave a tender moment alone



Yes I know I'm in love

But just when I ought to relax

I put my foot in my mouth

Cause I'm just avoiding the facts



If the girl gets too close

If I need some room to escape

When the moment arose

I'd tell her it's all a mistake



But that's not how I feel

No that's not the woman I've known

She's undeniably real

So leave a tender moment alone



But it's not only me

Breaking down when the tension gets high

Just when I'm in a serious mood

She is suddenly quite and shy



Leave a tender moment alone

Leave it alone



I know the moment isn't right

To hold my emotions inside

To change the attitude tonight

I've run out of places to hide

And if that's how I feel

Then it's the best feeling I've ever known

It's undeniably real

Leave a tender moment alone

You got to leave a tender moment alone

Leave a tender moment alone

Leave it alone

You got to leave a tender moment alone

Leave a tender moment alone

DOLLY PARTON lyrics - Red Hot Screaming Love

(M. Chapman)



I can't even begin to tell you

How I've been feelin' lately

But I have stumbled across something rare

And you use it to bait me

Something tells me go

Everyone says no, no, no

How can they be so cruel

When they tell me don't touch you

I tell them I'll die



In your red hot screaming love

In your red hot screaming love



If I'm losing my senses

They're lost in your deepest emotions

And the jets in my heart

They won't start till you set them in motion

Something tells me go

Everyone says no, no, no

How can they be so cruel

When they tell me don't touch you

I tell them I'll die



In your red hot screaming love

In your red hot screaming love

MARVIN GAYE lyrics - Pride And Joy

(Norman Whitfield/Marvin Gaye/Mickey Stevenson)



You are my pride and joy

And I just love you, little darlin'

Like a baby boy loves his toy

You've got kisses sweeter than honey

And I work every day to give you all I know

And that's why you're my pride and joy



And I'm tellin' the world

You're my (pride and joy) pride and joy (pride and joy)

I believe I'm no (baby boy) baby boy (baby boy)

But I know you're mine (pride and joy)

My pride and joy (pride and joy)

Yeah baby (baby boy) Yeah baby (baby boy)



You, you are my pride and joy

And a love like mine, yeah baby

Is something nobody can ever destroy

You pick me up (pick me up) when I'm down (when I'm down)

And when we go out, pretty baby

You shake up the whole town (whole town)

And that's why (that's why)

I believe you're my (you're my) pride and joy (pride and joy)



[Repeat and fade:]

(Pride and joy)[x4] (baby boy)[x2]

(Pride and joy) My pride and joy (pride and joy)

And I love you like a baby loves his toy (pride and joy)

NEIL YOUNG lyrics - White Line

I came to you,

when I needed a rest

You took my love,

and put it to the test

I saw some things,

that I never

would have guessed

Feel like a railroad,

I pulled a whole load behind.



That old white line

is friend of mine

And it's good time

we've been making

Right now I'm rollin' down

the open road

And the daylight

will soon be breaking.



I was adrift

on a river of pride

It seemed like such a

long easy ride

You were my raft

but I let you slide

I've been down but

I'm coming back up again.



And I'm rollin' down

the open road

Where the daylight

will soon be breaking

Right now I'm thinking 'bout

these things that I know

But it's good time

that we've been making.

STEVIE WONDER lyrics - Get It

[SW] ... Miss Lady Girl

Is putting her love on the shelf

Cause she don't want

To be hurt by nobody else



She's taken her heart

And put it away under lock and key

But it's high time

Miss Lady Girl sets her heart free and gives her love to me



[MJ] ... Some think that diamond rings, fancy cars

Will make a big impression

But I know that all she needs is my tender

Love and affection

Cause she still says



That no one's gonna get it

No one's gonna get it, oh no

But someone's gotta get it



And I feel that I will be the one who will



[SW] ... No one's gonna get it

No one's gonna get it, oh no

But someone's gotta get it

And I know that I will be the one who will



[MJ] ... Gonna get it, her love

[SW] ... Gonna get it, her kisses

[MJ] ... Gonna get it, her heart

[BOTH] ... Gonna get it, get it



[MJ] ... Miss Lady Girl

Has buried her feelings deep inside

Cause she don't want

To be taken for another ride



She's sick and tired

of being on that lonely merry-go-round

She just don't know

That the ultimate love

Of her life is about to be found



[SW] ... They think that ready cash, flashy clothes

Will fill her life with laughter



But I've got the very thing that she needs

True love forever after

Then no more will she say



That no one's gonna get it

No one's gonna get it, oh no

But someone's gotta get it

And I feel that I will be the one who will



[MJ] ... No one's gonna got it

No one's gonna get It, oh no

But someone's gonna get it

And I know that I will be the one who will



Gonna get it, her love

Gonna get it, her kisses

Gonna get it, her heart

Gonna get it, gonna get it, [etc.]

J. J. CALE lyrics - The Problem

(J. J. Cale)



Have you heard the news that's going 'round here

The man in charge has got to go

Cause he dances 'round the problem, boy

And the problem is the man in charge you know

Now, the young knows what I'm talking 'bout

It's a con in the old man's game

The man in charge, he don't know what he's doing

He don't know the world has changed

Power seems to be so far up

The man on the street ain't got a clue

The high top cats running your life

Think the problem is me and you

Born in a time that has gone by

The old tell the young what to do

Have you heard the news that's going 'round here

The problem is the man in charge of you

The problem is the man in charge of you

Power seems to be so far up

The man on the street ain't got a clue

The high top cats running your life

Think the problem is me and you

Have you heard the news that's going 'round here

The man in charge has to go

The man in charge has got to go

The man in charge has to go

ELTON JOHN lyrics - Daniel

Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane

I can see the red tail lights heading for Spain

Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye

God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes



They say Spain is pretty though I've never been

Well Daniel says it's the best place that he's ever seen

Oh and he should know, he's been there enough

Lord I miss Daniel, oh I miss him so much



Daniel my brother you are older than me

Do you still feel the pain of the scars that won't heal

Your eyes have died but you see more than I

Daniel you're a star in the face of the sky



Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane

I can see the red tail lights heading for Spain

Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye

God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes

Oh God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes

LOREENA MCKENNITT lyrics - Stolen Child

(Words by W. B.Yeats; Music by Loreena McKennitt)



Where dips the rocky highland

Of Sleuth Wood in the lake

There lies a leafy island

Where flapping herons wake

The drowsy water-rats

There we've hid our faery vats

Full of berries

And of reddest stolen cherries



[Chorus:]

Come away, O human child

To the waters and the wild

With a faery, hand in hand

For the world's more full of weeping

Than you can understand.



Where the wave of moonlight glosses

The dim grey sands with light

By far off furthest Rosses

We foot it all the night

Weaving olden dances

Mingling hands and mingling glances

Till the moon has taken flight

To and fro we leap

And chase the frothy bubbles

Whilst the world is full of troubles

And is anxious in its sleep.



[Chorus]



Where the wandering water gushes

From the hills above Glen-Car

In pools among the rushes

That scarce could bathe a star

We seek for slumbering trout

And whispering in their ears

Give them unquiet dreams

Leaning softly out

From ferns that drop their tears

Over the young streams



[Chorus]



Away with us he's going

The solemn-eyed

He'll hear no more the lowing

Of the calves on the warm hillside

Or the kettle on the hob

Sing peace into his breast

Or see the brown mice bob

Round and round the oatmeal chest.



[Chorus]



For he comes, the human child

To the waters and the wild

With a faery, hand in hand

For the world's more full of weeping

Than you can understand.

KINGDOM COME lyrics - Perfect O

Passion rises between us, babe

Wanna take you in my arms

Slide your body down on mine

Come and move me like ocean waves



Ooh, let it go

I hear you moan

Oh, perfect 'o'



Touch the secret inside you, babe

While our bodies shakin' so

Oh, the way you tease and please

It's only you I want to rock and roll



Ooh, let it go

I hear you moan

Oh, perfect 'o'

Oh yeah

Perfect 'o'

LENNY KRAVITZ lyrics - Magdalene

She was only seventeen

In her prime of life she was lean

And her only dream was to be on the silver screen

She hailed from north of Baltimore

Her mama says she'd end up a whore

And she spent up all her dough at the movie show



She's all go go go yeah yeah

She wears her pants on her hips too low

She learned it all in magazines

She's Magdalene

Ain't it funny how the sun shines?



She was only seventeen

She packed her bag and went to the scene

She said I'm gonna take on this town I'm gonna be the queen

She mingled like she'd been there before

She worked it till they hollered for more

Then she took off all her clothes

Now everybody knows



She's all go go go yeah yeah

She wears her pants on her hips too low

She learned it all in magazines

She's magdalene

Ain't it funny how the sun shines?



Oh no no, she's all go go go yeah yeah

She wears her pants on her hips too low

She learned it all in magazines

She's magdalene

Ain't it funny how the sun shines?

B. B. KING lyrics - I Stay In The Mood

(B. B. King / Joe Josea)



Yeah, I stay in the mood for you, 'cause I just can't help myself

Yeah, I stay in the mood for you, 'cause I just can't help myself

You've always fooling around, givin' my love to somebody else



Still I stay in the mood for you and I can see you everywhere I go

Still I stay in the mood for you and I can see you everywhere I go

Well, if something soon don't happen, my heart is gonna break I know



Well, you said that you love me, you've sworn that you'll be true

But now you're tellin' stronger, that I'm just a fool you know

But I stay in the mood for you, 'cause I just can't help myself

Please come back to me baby, 'cause I'm tired of livin' by myself

ROD STEWART lyrics - Go Out Dancing

(R. Stewart, J. Golub, C. Kentis)



Sometimes I wonder

what this old world's comin' to

where it's all gonna end

'Cause I work all week

try'n' to save me a dollar

but I get further in debt

But now on in

I'm gonna spend time lovin'

find a baby sitter right now

Put on your red dress

high heels darlin'

tonight we're going up town



We're goin' out dancin'

We're goin' out dancin'

We're goin' out dancin'

Chase our blues away



I know a funny little place

down on main street baby

where the band will play all night long

They play some hot rock 'n' roll to fine syncopation

and a brother on the saxophone

We got one chance baby

gotta be now or never

Yeah I know as I'm broke

We're gonna make this weekend last forever

come on honey put on your coat



We're goin' out dancin'

We're goin' out dancin'

We're goin' out dancin'

Chase our blues away



I've been lovin' you for seven years I won't forget

and I know it's been hard sometimes

open up the wine let's pretend we just met



We'll get home in the morning

while the milk man's calling

and the early birds start to sing

I will roll you some breakfast

and we'll jump into bed

and we'll start all over again

So hang on tight baby

we'll go flyin'

give your man a big kiss

We're gonna boogie on down

from the Bronx to Manhattan

memories are made of this



We're goin' out dancin'

We're goin' out dancin'

We're goin' out dancin'

Chase our blues away



Dancin'

We're goin' out dancin'

It may be the Bossanova

It may be the twist

It may be the Watusi

It may be the Chachacha



Just as long as we're dancin'

come on baby dancin

Take away our blues tonight

take away my blues tonight

Just as long as we're dancin'

dancin', dancin', dancin'

Si te quieres esconder

Dobla tu cuerpo y ahi esta

U2 lyrics - 11 O'Clock Tick Tock

It's cold outside

It gets so hot in here

And the boys and girls collide

To The music in my ear



Hear the children crying

And I know it's time to go

I hear the children crying

Take me home



A painted face

And I know we haven't long

We thought that we had the answers

It was the questions we had wrong



Hear the children crying

And I know it's time to go

I hear the children crying

Take me home



Sad song, sad song

Sad song, sad song



La lah la lah...La lah la lah...La lah lah...

[Repeat 4x]



Sad song, sad song

Sad song, sad song



Call out your name

Call out in shame

Call out your name

Call out

You better call out

Call, call, call out

THE CHURCH lyrics - The Time Being

Every day

As you notice the sun slips away

A strange turbulence fills the air

Gargoyles and winged monkeys

Descend into the city

Teeth are bared, their claws outstretched



Down in the pit

I sense the unforgiving night rain down on the overworld

And its souls' unrest

As the temptation fades out

You jerk back into yourself

As if falling from a dream



Down comes the rain

Hot clear rain

Washing away our sins

Washing away the statues of Sharon Stone



Erosion of my solitude

Begins its race

And worms finally penetrating the warmth of my hiding place

Slithering in the blackness

All their coldness repels me

I use a.45 to give them some stick



Lightning and thunder cause the walls to shake

And someone searching through the debris

For the photograph of his wife



Oh I want life

I want it now and forever

I want to rise up out of this chamber and clamber into the sky

SUZANNE VEGA lyrics - Fifty-Fifty Chance

50-50 chance

The doctor said

In the cardiac room

As she's lying in bed



There's a pan on the floor

Filled with something black

I need to know

I'm afraid to ask



I hug you

I hum to you

I've come to you

I touch you



I tell you

I love you

I sing to you

Bring to you

Anything



Her little heart

It beats so fast

Her body trembles

With the effort to last



I hug you

I hum to you

I've come to you

I touch you



I tell you

I love you

I sing to you

Bring to you

Anything



She's going home

Tomorrow at ten

The question is

Will she try it again?

PANTERA lyrics - (Reprise) Sandblasted Skin

Scrape it, grind it, peel it, hide it

The trend is over and gone forever

Shelf it, box it, save it, frame it

You won't need that anymore,

It's on sale at the fucken dollar store



Waste of time,

Pantomime,

Circus doll,

At the local mall

Exterminate, it's all fake!

Exterminate, it's all fake



Sandblast yourself

Sandblast yourself

Sandblast

Sandblast

It's getting old, old, old

PAUL MCCARTNEY lyrics - Spin It On

(This is it)

Spin it on, don't stop. Take it back to the top.

'Cos I gotwhole lotta love for you

I wanna spin it on. Spin it on!





Off to the flicks with the piddle in her nicks, to the fair with her hair

in curlers.

Their cousins didn't get all down to the pleasure dome

Their cousins didn't send their night in an aircraft hanger.

Memories. . .!





Spin it on, don't stop. Take it back to the top.

'Cos I got whole lotta love for you

That's why I wanna spin it on. Spin it on! Spin it on!



Spin it on!



Spin it on, don't stop. Take it back to the top

'Cos I got whole lotta love for you

That's why I wanna spin it on. Spin it on!



Off to the fields with a missionary's zeal for the life

of the wife of the farmer

Their cousins didn't get all down to the billiard hall

Their cousins didn't spend their time on a pinball table.

Memories. . .!



Spin it on, don't stop. Take it back to the top

'Cos I got whole lotta love for you.

I wanna spin it on. Spin it on!

Spin it on! Spin it on! I wanna spin it on! I wanna spin it on!

Spin it on! Don't Stop! Take it back to the top!

'Cos I got a whole lotta for you!

KANSAS lyrics - Carry On Wayward Son

(Kerry Livgren)



(Chorus)



Once I rose above the noise and confusion

Just to get a glimpse beyond the illusion

I was soaring ever higher, but I flew too high

Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man

Though my mind could think I still was a mad man

I hear the voices when I'm dreamin',

I can hear them say



(Chorus)

Carry on my wayward son,

For there'll be peace when you are done

Lay your weary head to rest

Now don't you cry no more



Masquerading as a man with a reason

My charade is the event of the season

And if I claim to be a wise man, it surely

means that I don't know

On a stormy sea of moving emotion

Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean

I set a course for winds of fortune, but

I hear the voices say



Carry on, you will always remember

Carry on, nothing equals the splendor

Now your life's no longer empty

Surely heaven waits for you



(Chorus)

THE ALAN PARSONS PROJECT lyrics - Stereotomy

Diamond eyes

That burn me and turn me to stone

Crystalise

And freeze me in clear monochrome



Turn me to stone; do anything you want with me

Turn me to stone; do anything you want

Stereotomy

We can make it together

Do anything you want with me

Do anything you want



Scarlet minds

Possess me and I feel no shame

Silent knives

Dissect me and I feel no pain



Stereotomy

We can make it together

Do anything you want with me

Do anything you want



Stereotomy

We can make it forever

Do anything you want with me

Do anything you want



Starlight beams

Project me in red blue and green

Velvet dreams

Protect me when I hit the screen



Stereotomy

We can make it together

Do anything you want with me, do anything you want

Stereotomy

We can make it forever

It's always the same, it's always the same

Stereotomy, we can make it

We can make it, do anything you want



Turn me to stone

Do anything you want with me

Cover my eyes

There's nothing more they need to see

Turn me to stone

Before there's nothing left of me

Make me a rock

And not what I appear to be

Turn me to stone

Turn me to stone

ELLA FITZGERALD lyrics - My Funny Valentine

Behold the way our fine feathered friend,

His virtue doth parade

Thou knowest not, my dim-witted friend

The picture thou hast made

Thy vacant brow, and thy tousled hair

Conceal thy good intent

Thou noble upright truthful sincere,

And slightly dopey gent



You're my funny valentine,

Sweet comic valentine,

You make me smile with my heart.

Your looks are laughable, un-photographable,

Yet, you're my favorite work of art.



Is your figure less than Greek?

Is your mouth a little weak?

When you open it to speak, are you smart?

But, don't change a hair for me.

Not if you care for me.

Stay little valentine, stay!

Each day is Valentine's Day



Is your figure less than Greek?

Is your mouth a little weak?

When you open it to speak, are you smart?

But, don't change a hair for me.

Not if you care for me.

Stay little valentine, stay!

Each day is Valentine's Day

CROSBY & NASH lyrics - Puppeteer

(James Raymond)



Look up my friend

See how the story ends

There's nowhere to run to and nothing to stop you

And no one to hold you down



Look up my friend

Means justify the end

There's nothing below you

When the world falls away



Pull over to the shoulder

I've got something to say to you

It's not so elusive this golden frontier

Pull the strings puppeteer



[Instrumental (Piano)]



Sometimes you get marooned

With salt in every wound

You watch as your own hands reach for the nightstand

For something to bring you down



Look up my friend

The dead will soon ascend

But everyone's even

When the light fades away



Pull over to the shoulder

I've got something to say to you

It's not so elusive this golden frontier



Pull over to the shoulder

I've got something to say to you

This world can get colder this time of the year



And love can disappear



Run you through like a spear



Pull the strings puppeteer



[Instrumental Ending (Piano)]

ERASURE lyrics - When Will I See You Again

(Gamble / Huff)



When will I see you again?

When will we share precious moments?



Will I have to wait forever?

Will I have to suffer and cry the whole night through?



When will I see you again?

When will our hearts beat together?



Are we in love or just friends?

Is this my beginning or is this the end?



When will I see you again?

When will I see you again?

When will I see you again?



Are we in love or just friends?

Is this my beginning or is this the end?



When will I see you again?

When will I see you again?

When will I see you again?

When will I see you again?

When will I see you again?

When will I see you again?

When will I see you again?

NEIL DIAMOND lyrics - In The Still Of The Night

In the still of the night

As I gaze from of my window

At the moon in its flight

My thoughts all stray to you



In the still of the night

While the world is in slumber

Oh the times without number

Darling when I say to you



Do you love me

As I love you

Are you my life to be

My dream come true

Or will this dream of mine

Fade out of sight

Like that moon growing dim

On the rim of the hill

In the chill, still of the night



Do you love me

As I love you

Are you my life to be

My dream come true

Or will this dream of mine

Fade out of sight

Like that moon growing dim

On the rim of the hill

In the chill, still of the night

JOHN PRINE lyrics - Spanish Pipedream (Blow Up Your TV)

She was a level-headed dancer on the road to alcohol

And I was just a soldier on my way to Montreal

Well she pressed her chest against me

About the time the juke box broke

Yeah, she gave me a peck on the back of the neck

And these are the words she spoke



[Chorus:]

Blow up your TV throw away your paper

Go to the country, build you a home

Plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches

Try an find Jesus on your own



Well, I sat there at the table and I acted real naive

For I knew that topless lady had something up her sleeve

Well, she danced around the bar room and she did the hoochy-coo

Yeah she sang her song all night long, tellin' me what to do



[Chorus]



Well, I was young and hungry and about to leave that place

When just as I was leavin', well she looked me in the face

I said "You must know the answer."

"She said, "No but I'll give it a try."

And to this very day we've been livin' our way

And here is the reason why



We blew up our TV threw away our paper

Went to the country, built us a home

Had a lot of children, fed 'em on peaches

They all found Jesus on their own

VANESSA PARADIS lyrics - Commando

Un commando

Ca saute aux yeux

C'est pas cadeau

C'est pas qu'a deux



Ca prend des ponts

Aux amoureux

Et ca repond

Aux vaniteux



Un commando

C'est resistant

Ca resiste

Au pire existant



Ca fait des bonds

Et des mechants

Et sur le front

C'est sur les dents



Un commando

C'est dans tes yeux

Ca met les larmes

A sang et a feu



Dieu comme Rimbaud

Beau comme un dieu

Et dans son ame

Ca brule un peu



Un commando

Ca prend sur soi

Et sur la peau

Ca n' decoit pas



Paris Saigon

Libre Cuba

Un ecusson

S'use au combat

BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST lyrics - Happy Old World

Looking like something from out of space we came

Nothing much to look at, but did he complain?

He didn't mind us being here to live in peace and grace

What we're doing to him now could put us back in space

We're thinking like some creatures off the ocean floor

Losing sight of what we've really come here for

Can I be heard above the sounds of prejudice and hate?

Take time to look around before it gets too late

It's a happy old world

Give and take a bit

That's what you make of it

A happy old world

But I'm sorry to be leaving it

It's a happy old world

Give and take a bit

That's what you make of it

A happy old world

But I guess I still, I still believe in it

It's a happy old world



We're tearing up the rivers and a thousand streams

And highways, they're in places where they've never been

We're building towers in the sky and racing for the sun

Oh Lord, any eye can see what harm we've done

I need some help to get myself out of this maze

We can both just say goodbye and go our separate ways

My mind's not on this song I sing, my heart's not in the lines

Guess I'll go and kill myself, so would you kindly close the blinds



Oh a happy old world

Give and take a bit

That's what you make of it

A happy old world

But I'm sorry to be leaving it

It's a happy old world

Give and take a bit

That's what you make of it

A happy old world

But I guess, guess I still believe in it

It's a happy old world

THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS lyrics - Unrelated Thing

Do you smile 'cause I'm funny? said the man

I wasn't joking and I meant the thing I said

Not at all, not at all

Said the woman to the man

I was thinking of an unrelated thing



Unconnected and free

No relationship to anything



How come you never look me in the eye?

Aren't you listening to me said the man

Not at all, not at all

Said the woman to the man

I'm still thinking of an unrelated thing



Somewhere other than here

Something else besides the man



Please explain the expression on your face

Then I'll know what's beneath it said the man

No you won't, no you won't

Said the woman to the man

I'll be thinking of an unrelated thing

I'll be thinking of an unrelated thing

BESSIE SMITH lyrics - It Makes My Love Come Down

(Bessie Smith)



When I see two sweethearts spoon, underneath the silv'ry moon

It makes my love come down, I wanna be around

Kiss me, honey, it makes my love come down



Cuddle close, turn out the light, do just what you did last night

It makes my love come down, I wanna be in town

Sweet, sweet daddy, it makes my love come down



Wild about my toodle-oh, when I gets my toodle-oh

It makes my love come down, want every pound

Hear me cryin', it makes my love come down



Likes my coffee, likes my tea, daffy about my stingaree

It makes my love come down, I wanna be around

Oh, sweet papa, it makes my love come down



If you want to hear me rave, honey, give me what I crave

It makes my love come down, actin' like a clown

Can't help from braggin', it makes my love come down



Come on and be my desert sheik, you're so strong and I'm so weak

It makes my love come down, to be love-land bound

Red hot papa, it makes my love come down



If you want me for your own, kiss me nice and leave me alone

It makes my love come down, it makes my love come down

Take me bye-bye, it makes my love come down



When you take me for a ride, when I'm close up by your side

It makes my love come down, ridin' all around

Easy ridin' makes my love come down

ROY ORBISON lyrics - Poor Baby

Glittery eyes; witchy smiles

A good time is all you are after

Skin tight thighs; little white lies

Put you in the center of the laughter



But your reign of queen is over

Your fortress has been broken down

You're still the center of the laughter

But your role has changed to the clown



Ooh poor baby

Someone broke your heart in two

Ooh poor baby

Who would have thought it could happen to you

Poor baby



A pretty face; sweet talkin' ways

Got you a part of the action

A come-over-touch, glances and such

You always had to be the main attraction



Now you're the one who's crying

You lost at your own lonely game

You're still the center of attraction

But now i'm gone, you've got yourself to blame



Ooh poor baby

Someone broke your heart in two

Ooh poor baby

You let someone get much too close to you

Poor baby

Poor baby, poor baby

Poor baby, poor baby

LENNY KRAVITZ lyrics - Destiny

Sometimes I think I've lost my mind

I thought I left my past behind

I live my life and all I know is

Follow your dream and don't let go



No one can live for me

No one can see the things I see

I walk this road

No one can tell me how to be

It's my destiny



There is no right, there is no wrong

There is no place where I belong

I've done my time

I've held it strong and

My life is all about this song



No one can live for me

No one can see the things I see

I walk this road

No one can tell me how to be

It's my destiny



If I threw them all away

Would it change?

No

I would live my life again, rearranged

There's a magic in my heart

That I feel

Don't you know that God is love

And it's real



No one can live for me

No one can see the things I see

I walk this road

No one can tell me how to be

It's my destiny



My destiny

My destiny

My destiny

It's my destiny

IGGY POP lyrics - Real Wild Child

Ooh yeah I'm a wild one



[Chorus]

I'm a wild one

Oh baby

I'm a wild one



[Chorus]

JAMES TAYLOR lyrics - Down In The Hole

Watch your head on that root, got to let your eyes adjust.

I'm sorry about your suit, can't do nothing about the dust.

Welcome down underground, hunker down a spell.

Gets to feel like home to me though I know it looks like hell.



Down in the hole, Lord, it's deep and the sides are steep.

And the nights are long and cold, down in the hole.

Light and love and the world above mean nothing to the mole.

(Don't mean nothing to the mole.)



Never gets real hot down here, fifty five degrees.

It's always a little bit damp, I fear but I've never seem to freeze.

Mushrooms and earthworms, fancy stuff to eat.

A world of quiet contemplation, oh, yes, just below the street.



Down in the hole, Lord, it's deep and the sides are steep.

And the nights are long and cold, down in the hole.

Light and love and the world above mean nothing to the mole.

(Don't mean nothing to the mole.)



I'm in a hole since I lost my baby, living in a hole since I lost my girl.



Would you play in the moonlight, would you dance in the dirt,

come home way past daybreak, cockleburs all stuck in your shirt?

Come back home to twilight, come back home to me,

subterranean river you are meets the molten sea.



Down in the hole, Lord, it's deep and the sides are steep.

And the nights are long and cold, down in the hole.

Light and love and the world above mean nothing to the mole.

(Don't mean nothing to the mole.)

GREEN DAY lyrics - Stuck With Me

I'm not part of your elite

I'm just alright

Class structure waving colors

Bleeding from my throat

Not subserviant to you I'm just alright

Down classed by the powers that be

Give me loss of hope



Cast out... Buried in a hole

Struck down... forcing me to fall

Destroyed... giving up the fight

Well, I know I'm not alright



What's my price and will you pay it if it's alright?

Take it from my dignity

waste it until it's dead

Throw me back into the gutter

'Cause it's alright

Find another pleasure fucker

Drag them down to hell



Cast out... Buried in a hole

Struck down... forcing me to fall

Destroyed... giving up the fight

Well, I know I'm not alright



Cast out... Buried in a hole

Struck down... forcing me to fall

Destroyed... giving up the fight

Well, I know I'm not alright

POWER STATION lyrics - Living In Fear

Living in fear

Living in fear

Living in fear

Heartquakes



Don't lift a finger for fear you'll offend

You can't tell your conscience from an instinct or a trend

Last year's neuroses are now all the rage

Your aberrations could be earning you a wage

Take em to the stage

Constant anxiety panic is near

Living in fear



Rampant paranoia

Everyone's a victim

God's become a lawyer

Everything's addicting



Heartquakes

Living in fear

Living in fear

Heartquakes



Get yourself sued for an incorrect thought

(oh no)

Hide your opinions or end up in court

I'll give you a figure

Go ahead and sue

Got a hair trigger

Got a short fuse

Gimme an excuse

Constant anxiety

Panic is near

Living in fear



Legislated passion

Prenuptial agreements

Ugliness as fashion

Prophylactic demons

Your foundations shaking

Prices keep inflating

Values all corrupted

Coitus interruptus



Heartquakes

Living in fear

Living in fear

Heartquakes



Living in fear

Constant anxiety

Panic is near

Living in fear

Hide from your conscience

You're living in fear

Living in fear

Constant anxiety

Panic is near

Living in fear

Hide from your conscience

You're living in fear

Living in fear

Living in fear

Living in fear

ANDY GIBB lyrics - Desire

We may be big or small

Or black or white, eternally

And black and white is you and me

In a special light

We may be young or old or in between

But this much I know

Together we can learn to grow

In a world that's ever turning

It's back on you



If you give it all away

Make it mine, mine, ine, ine, ine

You are desire, everything you need

I give you right or wrong

And you are the woman

That I base my whole existence on

And when I get to you

My desire is glowing in your light





These are the golden years we get to live

We lead the way

Tomorrow we can start today

In a special light

Love could be good or bad or in between

But this much I learn

Baby, you and I can learn

In a world that's rearranging

It's reality



If you give it all away

Make it mine, mine, ine, ine, ine

You are desire, everything you need

I give you right or wrong

And you are the woman

That I base my whole existence on

And when I get to you

My desire is glowing in your light



And it's nice to light a fire

When it's cold outside

If you give it all away

Make it mine, mine, ine, ine, ine

You are desire, everything you need

I give you right or wrong

And you are the woman

That I base my whole existence on

And when I get to you

My desire is glowing in your light



You are desire, everything you need

I give you right or wrong

And you are the woman

That I base my whole existence on

And when I get to you

My desire is glowing in your light

IRVING BERLIN lyrics - Latins Know How

[Verse:]

In a magazine I read

Where a certain author said

That Latins are lousy lovers

And it's a lie

A libelous lie

And who, tell me, who should know better than I?



[Refrain:]

Latins, they don't play baseball

They're not so good with a rake or a plow

They're not experts at making money

But when it comes to making love

A Latin knows how



Latins, they don't like farming

You seldom see Latins milking a cow

In the daytime, they're always sleeping

But in the night without much light

A Latin knows how



Englishmen and Yankees

They've got quite a lot

But that extra something

They just haven't got



Latins, they're so romantic

They've got more oomph than the law will allow

If you're married to a Latin

Life is just smooth as satin

For a Latin knows how

THE SCORPIONS lyrics - He's A Woman - She's A Man

(Rudolf Schenker, Klaus Meine, Herman Rarebell)



I saw it walkin' lonely down the street

Cool like a cat, like crazy clean

I looked twice again, I can't believe

Oh no no no

It turned around right then

And looked at me

I said oh no, it really couldn't be

It was a man, it was a woman, too



He's a woman, she's a man

He's a woman, she's a (woman)



I think it really came from far away

I'm feeling head uptight so I have to stay

It takes my hand and says come on, let's go

Let's go, let's go, let's go

We're goin' home, it's nice and warm to say

He starts to move, she starts to play

I need a body, why not you



He's a woman, she's a man

He's a woman, she's a (woman)



He's a woman, she's a man

He's a woman, she's a (woman)

CELINE DION lyrics - Tell Him

I'm scared

So afraid to show I care

Will he think me weak

If I tremble when I speak

Oooh - what if

There's another one he's thinking of

Maybe he's in love

I'd feel like a fool

Life can be so cruel

I don't know what to do



I've been there

With my heart out in my hand

But what you must understand

You can't let the chance

To love him pass you by



Should I



Tell him

Tell him that the sun and moon

Rise in his eyes

Reach out to him

And whisper

Tender words so soft and sweet

Hold him close to feel his heart beat

Love will be the gift you give yourself



Touch him

With the gentleness you feel inside

Your love can't be denied

The truth will set you free

You'll have what's mean to be

All in time you'll see



I love him

Of that much I can be sure

I don't think I could endure

If I let him walk away

When I have so much to say



I'll



Love is light that surely glows

In the hearts of those who know

It's a steady flame that grows

Feed the fire with all the passion you can show

Tonight love will assume its place

This memory time cannot erase

Blind faith will lead love where it has to go



Never let him go

SHOCKING BLUE lyrics - The Queen

(Robbie van Leeuwen)



Wake up early each morning,

Wond'ring in the morning sun.

Why this world seems unstumble?

Gotta see the sun rising

And the flowers awaking.

While this world seem forsaken,

I'm the queen of this country!



The river is singing the same song,

Being picked 'round by the birds.

When this world seem forgotten

Gotta see the sun rising

And the flowers awaking.

While this world seem forsaken,

I'm the queen of this country!

IRVING BERLIN lyrics - The Yam

[Verse:]

Come on and hear the yam man cry,

"Any yam today?"

The sweet potatoes that he'll fry

Will be yam today

The little step that you'll see him do

With ev'ry yam that he sells to you

Is something that you ought to try

Come and Yam today



[Refrain:]

Come get what I've got

It will hit the spot

Get your sweet and hot

Yam



Raise your hand and sway

Like you hold a tray

When you're on your way

Yam



Come on, shake your depression

And let's have a yam session

There's that long note

One, two, three

Yam



Ev'ry orchestra

In America

Will be doing the

Yam



[Patter:]

I didn't come to do the Charleston

I didn't come to Ball the Jack

I didn't come to do

The Suzy Q

Or do the Bottom they call Black

I didn't come to do Big Apple

I didn't come to do the Shag

But, honey, here I am

To do the Yam

Because the Yam is in the bag

VAN MORRISON lyrics - Blues In The Night (My Mama Done Tol' Me)

(Harold Arlen / Johnny Mercer)



My mama done tol' me

When I was a little

My mama done told me, son

A woman will sweet talk

And give you the big eye

But when that sweet talk is done

A woman's a two faced

A woman's something that would leave you singing the blues in the night



Now the rain is falling

Heaven can hear you calling

Doo wee

Heaven blows the lonesome whistle

Blowing across the threshhold

Doo wee

Doo wee ta too tee

A crickety crack go wickety wack the blues in the night



Evening breeze will start

Trees that crying in the

All in the world wood haunted slide

When you get the blues in the night



So take my word

Or the mocking bird

Will sing a sadder kind of song

Maybe he knows things

He knows things can go wrong



A match is a maybe

Love is the same job

Whenever the four winds blow

I've been to some big town

Had me some big town

But there is one thing I know

A woman's a two faced

A woman's something that would leave you singing the blues in the night

Blues in the night

THE KINGSTON TRIO lyrics - Lock All The Windows

(John Stewart)



There was time for the laughter and time for the rain, time for the people who don't know my name.

Time for everything, I know it's true and I know that I should have had more time for you.



[Chorus:]

So, lock all the windows. Close all the doors and don't let me go out runnin' no more.

Lock all the windows. Close all the doors and don't let me go out runnin' no more.



But there so many places that I've never been. So many faces a-callin' me friend.

L. A. is pretty and New York is cold and Chicago is just an old story I've told.



[Chorus]



But the hands of the clock keep on goin' around and the calendar pages keep fallin' on down.

Come follow me, then, wherever I go and when we'll get home here, I really don't know.

We'll lock all the windows. Close all the doors and we'll go out runnin' just like before. [Repeat]

JOHNNY CASH lyrics - Give My Love To Rose

I found him by the railroad track this morning

I could see that he was nearly dead

I knelt down beside him and I listened

Just to hear the words the dying fellow said



He said they let me out of prison down in Frisco

For ten long years I've paid for what I've done

I was trying to get back to Louisiana

To see my Rose and get to know my son



[Chorus:]

Give my love to Rose please won't you mister

Take her all my money, tell her to buy some pretty clothes

Tell my boy his daddy's so proud of him

And don't forget to give my love to Rose



Tell them I said thanks for waiting for me

Tell my boy to help his mom at home

Tell my Rose to try to find another

For it ain't right that she should live alone



Mister here's a bag with all my money

It won't last them long the way it goes

God bless you for finding me this morning

And don't forget to give my love to Rose



[Chorus:]

Give my love to Rose please won't you mister

Take her all my money, tell her to buy some pretty clothes

Tell my boy his daddy's so proud of him

And don't forget to give my love to Rose

ALISON KRAUSS lyrics - Poor Old Heart

Don't expect too much from my poor old heart,

You can blame me unforgiven for my scars,

you might just be the best that I can find,

but I can't seem to forget the tears I've cried,

I don't know that I will ever trust again,

it's a price I must pay for all my sins,

Time has changed me and left me full of doubt,

and my heart may be lost never to be found,



Once upon a time I did believe,

in my true love that swept me off my feet,

the nthe wind of change swept him away,

and left me drowning in my own pain

I don't know that I will ever love again,

it's a price that I must pay for all my sins,

time has changed me and left me full of doubt,

and my heart may be lost never to be found,

I don't know that I will ever love again,

it's the price that I must pay for all my sins,



time has changed me and left me full of doubt,

I don't know that I will ever trust again,

it's the price I must pay for all my sins,

time has changed me and left me full of doubt,

and my heart may be lost never to be found.



I don't know that I will ever trust again,

ZUCCHERO lyrics - Scintille

Scende giu la neve

Guarda come viene

Sto pensando a te

E tutto intorno a me

Vedo scintille.



Stelle piu di mille

Cadono a colori

Come figli e sogni

Fanno arcobaleni

E poi scintille.



Ci incontreremo sai

Sara di notte

Ci incontreremo sai



O sara la notte

Ad incontrare noi

A credere in noi



'cause I believe in this beautiful love

and I believe in this beautiful love

'cause I believe in this beautiful love



Scende giu la neve

Come viene lieve

Sto pensando a te

In questa notte che

Che fa scintille



E non e il tempo sai

Che ci manca

E non e il vento sai

Che ci stanca

Che non e il tempo mai

Che ci cambiera



'cause I believe in this beautiful love

and I believe in this beautiful love

'cause I believe in this beautiful love



Che bella luce sei

In questa notte di stelle

Diamante nel buio

Che fa scintille



Amore mio dov'e

Dov'e che ti manco

xche tu manchi a me

E sulla mia pelle



'cause I believe in this beautiful love

and I believe in this beautiful love

'cause I believe in this beautiful love

THE KINGSTON TRIO lyrics - I Bawled

(Bob Shane)



Took my girl home the other night. Got myself in an awful fight.

She said, "Do, do, darlin', won't you please come in?" Her old lady socked me with a rollin pin.



[Chorus:]

And I bawled. I bawled. Oh, mon, you should have heard me bawl.

Well, I bawl when I feel the pin. I don't meet with that old woman again.

Oh, yes, I bawled (I bawled.) I bawled. (I bawled.) Oh, mon, you should have heard me bawl.

Well, I bawl when I feel the pin. I don't meet with that old woman again.



Mon, the first time she hit me, she knocked me down. Wouldn't even let me get off the ground.

I tried to tell of the rules of Queensbury. She said, "Boy, cuts no ice with me."



[Chorus]



Oh, mon, talk about eternity. That's what that encounter seemed to me.

She started to sneeze and I started to run. Gone like a bullet from a machine gun.



[Chorus]

SIMON & GARFUNKEL lyrics - Flowers Never Bend With The Rainfall

(P. Simon)



Through the corridors of sleep

Past the shadows dark and deep

My mind dances and leaps in confusion.

I don't know what is real,

I can't touch what I feel

And I hide behind the shield of my illusion.



So I'll continue to continue to pretend

My life will never end,

And flowers never bend

With the rainfall.



The mirror on my wall

Casts an image dark and small

But I'm not sure at all it's my reflection.

I am blinded by the light

Of God and truth and right

And I wander in the night without direction.



So I'll continue to continue to pretend

My life will never end,

And flowers never bend

With the rainfall.



It's no matter if you're born

To play the King or pawn

For the line is thinly drawn 'tween joy and sorrow,

So my fantasy

Becomes reality,

And I must be what I must be and face tomorrow.



So I'll continue to continue to pretend

My life will never end,

And flowers never bend

With the rainfall.

JOHN LEE HOOKER lyrics - You're So Nice And Kind To Me Lou Della

(John Lee Hooker)



People I had a woman, she was nice and kind to me in ev'ry way

People I had a woman, she was nice and kind to me in ev'ry way

But Lord, she died and she left me, I sang the blues on ev'ry Decoration Day1



Lord, I hate to see, I hate to see my baby go

People I hate to see my baby leave that mornin',

And my Lord takin' my baby 'way

She said, "Johnny Lee, don't you worry,

Bring flowers on every Decoration Day"



I was 'round my baby's bedside, when my Lord takin' my baby, 'way

Lord, I was 'round my baby's bedside, when my Lord takin' my baby, 'way

It hurt me so bad, so bad, until I, just broke right down and cried

Hmm, hmm



She says, "Fare you well, I see you on every Decoration Day", I tol' them

I told my baby, I told my baby, "I bring flowers on every Decoration Day"

I bring you some flowers, babe, just to decorate your grave



People, y'all havin' a good time now, just like the flowers that comes in May

Y'all havin' a good time now, just like the flower that come in May

I think about Lou Della, Lou Della, Lou Della on every Decoration Day



Lou Della, Lou Della, Lou Della stays on my mind

Lou Della, Lou Della, people, boy

Lou Della stays on my mind

Lord, she died and she left me on one Decoration Day

Lord, Lou Della's gone and Lou Della's worryin' me

THE OFFSPRING lyrics - Self Esteem

I wrote her off for the tenth time today

And practiced all the things I would say

But she came over

I lost my nerve

I took her back and made her dessert

Now I know I'm being used

That's okay man cause I like the abuse

I know she's playing with me

That's okay cause I've got no self esteem

We make plans to go out at night

I wait till 2 then I turn out the light

All this rejection's got me so low

If she keeps it up I just might tell her so

When she's saying that she wants only me

Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends

When she's saying that I'm like a disease

Then I wonder how much more I can spend

Well I guess I should stick up for myself

But I really think it's better this way

The more you suffer

The more it shows you really care Right?

Now I'll relate this a little bit

That happens more than I'd like to admit

Late at night she knocks on my door

Drunk again and looking to score

Now I know I should say no

But that's kind of hard when she's ready to go

I may be dumb

But I'm not a dweeb

I'm just a sucker with no self esteem

BAD COMPANY lyrics - Hold On To My Heart

Whenever you need me, I would be there

Lookin' over your shoulder, you know that I care



But still you walked away

And I could never seem to find the words, the words to make you stay, so baby



Chorus:

Hold on to my, hold on to my heart - when it feels like it's fading

Hold on to my, hold on to my heart - you know I'll be waiting

All this crazyness, it keeps us apart



So hold on to my heart



Whatever you told me, I would believe

And over and over, I had my heart on my sleeve



And I gotta let you know

That no matter where you are tonight, I could never let you go, so baby



chorus



Never a day goes by without your memory

Oh yeah, I can still picture us, baby, you and me



(Solo)



chorus repeats out...

PAUL SIMON lyrics - That's Why God Made The Movies

(Paul Simon)



When I was born my mother died

She said bye-bye baby, bye-bye

I said "Where you goin'?"

"I'm just born"

She said I'll only be gone for a while

My mother loved to leave in style

And that's why God made the movies



So I laid around in my swaddling clothes

Until the doctor came and turned out the light

Then I packed my bag

And my nametag

And stole away into the night

Hopeing things would work out alright

That's why God made the movies



Say you will, say you will

Say you'll take me to your loving breast

Say you'll nourish me with your tenderness

The way the ladies sometimes do

Say you won't, say you won't

Say you won't leave me for no other man

Say you'll love me for the way I am

Say you will, say you will



When I was born my mother died

She said bye-bye baby, bye-bye

And since that day

I've made my way

The notorious boy of the wild

Adopted by wolves when he was a child

That's why God. That's why God.

That's why God made the movies

THE CROSS lyrics - Heaven For Everyone

(Roger Taylor)



(This could be heaven)

(This could be heaven)

(This could be heaven)

This could be heaven, this could be heaven for everyone

(This could be heaven)

This could be heaven, this could be heaven, this could be heaven for everyone

In these days of cool reflection (reflection)

You come to me and everything seems alright

In these days of cold affections

You sit by me and everything's fine

This could be heaven for everyone

This world could be fed, this world could be fun

This could be heaven for everyone

This world could be free, this world could be one



In this world of cool deception

Just your smile can smooth my ride

These troubled days of cruel rejection

You come to me, soothe my troubled mind

Yeah this could be heaven for everyone

This world could be fed, this world could be fun

This should be love for everyone (yeah)

This world should be free, this world could be one

We should bring love to our daughters and sons

Love, love, love, love

This could be heaven for everyone



You know that

(this could be heaven for everyone)

Yes!

(this could be heaven for everyone)



This could be heaven for everyone



Listen.

What people do to other souls

They take their lives, destroy their goals

Their basic pride and dignity

Is stripped and torn and shown no pity

When this should be heaven for everyone



This could be heaven, this could be heaven

This could be heaven for everyone

This could be heaven, could be heaven for everyone

This could be heaven (this could be heaven)

This could be heaven, could be heaven for everyone

This could be heaven (this could be heaven)

This could be heaven, could be heaven for everyone

This could be heaven

This could be heaven for everyone

This could be heaven

This could be heaven

This could be heaven....

For everyone

For everyone

CELINE DION lyrics - A New Day Has Come

I was waiting for so long

For a miracle to come

Everyone told me to be strong

Hold on and don't shed a tear



Through the darkness and good times

I knew I'd make it through

And the world thought I'd had it all

But I was waiting for you



[Pre-CHORUS:]

Hush now I see a light in the sky

Oh it's almost blinding me

I can't believe I've been touched by an angel with love



Let the rain come down and wash away my tears

Let it fill my soul and drown my fears

Let it shatter the walls for a new sun

A new day has come



When it was dark now there's light

Where there was pain now's there's joy

Where there was weakness I found my strength

All in the eyes of a boy



[Pre-CHORUS]



[CHORUS x2]



Hush now I see a light in your eyes

All in the eyes of a boy



I can't believe I've been touched by an angel with love [x2]



Hush now

A new day

SIMPLY RED lyrics - The World And You Tonight

Don't rush around

The world will wait for you

And too much time is lost

On all the things we have to do



There's nothing more important baby

Right now than you and me

So come a little closer darling

And turn the lights down low a key



And life could be so wonderful

A perfect home and a family

When you're lying next to me

I'm everything I want to be

With the world and you tonight

With the world and you tonight



With you my love

The world's a better place

And every day with you

Will hold a treasured memory



Your embrace

Could steal me forever

And nothing else matters

When I hold you in my arms



And life could be so wonderful

A perfect home and a family

'Cos you are everything to me

I'm the lock and you're the key

To the world and me tonight

To the world and me tonight

It's the world and you tonight

You are my world

With the world and me tonight

THE MAMAS AND THE PAPAS lyrics - Dedicated To The One I Love

(Pauling and Bass)



While I'm far away from you, my baby,

I know it's hard for you, my baby,

Because it's hard for me, my baby,

And the darkest hour is just before dawn -



Each night before you go to bed, my baby,

Whisper a little prayer for me my baby.

And tell all the stars above

This is dedicated to the one I love.



Love can never be exactly like we want it to be.

I could be satisfied knowing you love me.

There's one thing I want you to do especially for me -

And it's something that everybody needs.



While I'm far away from you, my baby,

Whisper a little prayer for me, my baby,

Because it's hard for me, my baby,

And the darkest hour is just before dawn.



If there's one thing I want you to do especially for me

Then it's something that everybody needs...



Each night before you go to bed, my baby,

Whisper a little prayer for me, my baby,

And tell all the stars above -

This is dedicated to the one I love.

This is dedicated (to the one I love)

This is dedicated to the one I love

This is dedicated (to the one I love)

This is dedicated...

THE CURE lyrics - Watching Me Fall

I've been watching me fall for it seems like years

Watching me grow small, I watch me disappear

Slipping out my ordinary world, out my ordinary eyes

Yeah slipping out the ordinary me into someone else's life

Into someone else's life...



There's a thin white cold new moon and the snow is coming down

And the neon bright tokyo lights flicker through the crowd

I've been drifting around for hours and I'm lost and I'm tired

When a whisper in my ear insatiable breathes

"why don't you follow me inside?... "



Yeah the room is small, the room is bright

Her hair is black, the bed is white

And the night is always young

Is always young... always young

The night is always young...



Yeah I've been seeing them strip to the bone in the mirror on the wall

Seeing her swallow him whole like it's not me at all

She holds out her hands and I follow her down to my knees

And the sucking inside insatiable smiles

"you will forget yourself in me... "



Yeah the room is small, the room is bright

Her eyes are black, the bed is white

And the night is always young

And the night goes on and on

And the night is always young

And the night is never over and over and over and over and over...



And then it's gone

And then it's gone

Yeah then it's gone...



Yeah it's a cruel mean cold new day and outside the snow is still coming down

And in the blood red tokyo bed I watch me coming round

She pulled him down for hours

Deeper than I've ever been

And as I fall in the mirror on the wall

I'm watching me scream

I'm watching me scream

I'm watching me scream



I'm watching me scream



Yeah I've been watching me go for it must be years

Watching me get slow, I watch me disappear

And one day, yeah I know, I won't come back at all...

And always over and over in his ordinary eyes

I'm watching me fall

I'm watching me fall

I'm watching me fall



I'm watching me fall

MODERN TALKING lyrics - After Your Love Is Gone

Oh you playing games, playing games, hurting my soul

Seven days, seven nights, without control

Oh every day, every night I was alone

When you're not next to me

Should I listen to my heart, girl

Should I listen to my brain

When you tell me, you leave me, and you give it up

Can't we still be friends?



Oh after your love is gone

I don't know where I belong

When you're not next to me, not next to me

I'm dieing, crying baby

Oh, after your love is gone

Oh baby I'm so alone

When you next to me, it's extacy

I'm dieing, crying baby



Oh you playing games, playing games, playing with love

You can run but don't hide, can't get enough

Anyway, anywhere, I'll be there

Cause you're the one for me

Cause when I give you all my heart girl

You know I will die for you

And when you tell me, you'll leave me, and you give it up

I lose my destiny

TOO $HORT (TOO SHORT) lyrics - Oakland Style

Yeah! That's how we do it in Oaktown, baby...

$hort Dog's on the microphone...

Straight from the East Side...



I'm a player, bitch, Oakland style

They call me playboy $hort, I know it's been a while

Since dangerous crew took the time to say hello

Mothafuckas makin' money in the ghetto

It's just another day and it's way too real

All my bitches cut, so what? That's how I feel

It's all good so just make me rich

And get in where you fit in, bitch

Well, I get high cause that's what I do

What about you? Tell me is it true?

I heard you was thru, your ass went broke

Jewerly got pawned and your cars got sold

But on the long run you got nothin' to prove

Life to me is like a funk in the groove

You gotta get right in where you belong

Find a right mission and ride the song



Ride it...Oakland style...Bitch!

PETER GABRIEL lyrics - More Than This

i woke up and the world outside was dark

all so quiet before the dawn

opened up the door and walked outside

the ground was cold



i walked until i couldn't walk anymore

to a place i'd never been

there was something stirring in the air

in front of me, i could see



more than this

more than this

so much more than this

there is something else there

when all that you had has all gone

and more than this

i stand

feeling so connected

and i'm all there

right next to you



it started when i saw the ship go down

i saw them struggle in the sea

and suddenly the picture disappears

in front of me



now we're busy making all our busy plans

on foundations built to last

but nothing fades as fast as the future

and nothing clings like the past, until we can see



more than this

more than this

so much more than this

there is something out there

more than this

it's coming through

and more than this

i stand alone and so connected

and I'm all there

right next to you



oh then it's alright

when with every day another bit falls away

oh but it's still alright, alright, alright

and like words together we can make some sense



much more than this

way beyond imagination

much more than this

beyond the stars

with my head so full

so full of fractured pictures

and i'm all there

right next to you

so much more than this

there is something else there

when all that you had has all gone

and more than this

i'm alone

feeling so connected

and i'm all there right next to you



more than this

more than this

more than this

T. REX lyrics - Country Honey

Take me down to the country honey,

Take me down to the country honey,

In a jeep that's sweet,

In a jeep that's neat,

Take me down to the country honey.



Take me down to the sea-side baby,

Take me down to the sea-side baby,

In a jeep that's neat,

In a jeep that's sweet,

Take me down to the country honey.

SLAYER lyrics - Desire

(Music: Hanneman, Lyrics: Araya)



No one could ever doubt my rapture

As you too wil son discover

No one will ever cross my love

Deadly consequence will rise above

Lying all alone

Visions of erotic bliss

Feel your warmth from inside your skin

A fever I can not resist

Desire I would kill for you

Right or wrong I'd do anything

True and pure the intensity

Every time death is next to me

Lying all alone

Visions of erotic bliss

Feel your warmth from inside your skin

A fever I can not resist



[Lead: Hanneman/King]



Anxiously feeling grotesque

Up against your flesh

Forbidden fantasies

Uncontrollable heat

Find yourself all alone and dead

Visions of corroding bliss

Feel the warmth from inside your skin

A sensation I can't resist

SARAH MCLACHLAN lyrics - Ol' 55

(Tom Waits)



Well my time has come quickly I go lickety splitly

Down to my ol' 55

Well I pulled away slowly I was feeling so holy

God knows I was feeling alive



[Chorus:]

Now the sun's coming up

I'm riding with lady luck

Freeways, cars, and trucks

Stars beginning to fade

And I lead the parade

Just a wishing I stayed a little longer

Oh Lord, lemme tell you the feeling's getting stronger



And it's six in the morning, gave me no warning

I had to be on my way

Well there's trucks all a-passing and the lights are all flashing,

I'm on my way home from your place



[Chorus]



Well my time has come quickly I go lickety splitly

Down to my ol' 55

Well I pulled away slowly I was feeling so holy

God knows I was feeling alive



[Chorus]

HERBIE HANCOCK lyrics - A Song For You

(Leon Russell)



[Originally by Leon Russell]



I've been so many places in my life and time

I've sung a lot of songs I've made some bad rhyme

I've acted out my love in stages

With ten thousand people watching

But we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you



I know your image of me is what I hope to be

I've treated you unkindly but darlin' can't you see

There's no one more important to me

Darlin' can't you please see through me

Cause we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you



You taught me precious secrets of the truth witholding nothing

You came out in front and I was hiding

But now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together

Listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding



I love you in a place where there's no space or time

I love you for in my life you are a friend of mine

And when my life is over

Remember when we were together

We were alone and I was singing this song for you



You taught me precious secrets of the truth witholding nothing

You came out in front and I was hiding

But now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together

Listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding



I love you in a place where there's no space or time

I love you for in my life you are a friend of mine

And when my life is over

Remember when we were together

We were alone and I was singing this song for you

We were alone and I was singing this song for you

THE FLAMING LIPS lyrics - Suddenly Everything Has Changed (Death Anxiety Caused By Moments Of Boredom)

Putting all the vegetables away

That you bought at the grocery store today

And it goes fast

You think of the past

Suddenly everything has changed



Driving home, the sky accelerates

And the clouds all form a geometric shape

And it goes fast

You think of the past

Suddenly everything has changed



Putting all the clothes you've washed away

And as you're folding up the shirts you hesitate

Then it goes fast

You think of the past

And suddenly everything has changed

THE SMALL FACES lyrics - Get Yourself Together

You say that you miss him

I can tell by the way you kiss him

Get yourself together

And you'll be alright

You say that you love him

Now he's gone so please forget him

Get yourself together

And you'll be alright

I'm just like you so take my lead

You see me as a friend but

I'm a friend in need



Get yourself together

And you'll be alright



So if you feel that you need me

I'm here beside you

Can't you see me?

Get yourself together

And you'll be al-right



Get yourself together

You're gonna be alright

GRATEFUL DEAD lyrics - Picasso Moon

South of Market in the land of ruin

You get all manner of action

Tinsel tigers in The Metal Room

Stalking satisfaction.

They got 'em packaged up for love and money

Tattooed tots and chrome spike bunnies

Check my conscience at the DMZ

And roll on in, gonna roll in it, honey

But I get a feelin like when big things collide

Like the crack before the thunder, like I really ought to hide

And here comes Metal Angel, she looks ready to ride;

& What's that she's tryin' to show me..?

What's that you're tryin' to show me..?



[Chorus:]

Picasso Moon, shattered light

Diamond bullets ripping up the night

Picasso Moon, liberate me,

From the middle of eternity,

Something hooks her little finger at me,

An' it's bigger than a drive-in movie, ooooo-eeee.

Bigger than a drive-in movie, ooooo-eeee.



Hangin' ten out on space and time

Redefining distance.

The next skull on your necklace is mine:

Cheap for such assistance

I had a job trading bits for pieces

We'd make wrinkles, advertise them as creases

Please, find my resignation enclosed,

Roll with it, roll with it, we gonna roll in it, honey..,

Dark Angel, What's botherin' you?

So strange, you'll do me all that you do

Dark Angel, you're makin' me blue..,

I guess it doesn't matter..,

I guess it doesn't matter...



[Second chorus:]

Picasso Moon, blinding ball,

Spinning fire, the lightning calls

Picasso Moon, fall into the sky

Rarin' out, I'm gonna testify

And stare a shout into that burning eye,

Bigger than a drive-in movie, oh my.

Bigger than a drive-in movie, oh my.



Strikes morning; the atomic dawn,

Scramble back to cover.

Quick, pop your mirrored sunglasses on,

My little leather-winged lover.

I see your face printed on my money,

Your blazin' ways really move me, honey..!

Heart of darkness, Yea-e-yea-e-e-hoo..,

Why'm I laughing? This ain't funny

Dark Angel, now just don't start..,

You'll break my spirit, wreck my heart

You must have a license for practisin' that art.

I don't presume to imagine.

I don't presume to imagine.



[Chorus:]

Picasso Moon, fractal flame

Blazing lace filling every frame

Picasso Moon, wheels within wheels

What's true when everything's real?

It's all new, I'm gonna scatter the seals

Bigger than a drive-in movie, for real.

Bigger than a drive-in movie, for real.



Picasso Moon, etc.

STEVE WINWOOD lyrics - One And Only Man

(Winwood/Capaldi)



Every time I see you, girl, it makes me feel so sad

Knowing you've been seeing some other guy that treats you bad

Did you know I'm burning deep inside for you?

Just give me the chance now and we can see it through

If you'll be my woman, I'll be your one and only man



Gonna take you with me far away from hearts of stone

We'll live in the country and raise some children of our own

I will be your lover, I will be your friend

I'll give you my loving, on that you can depend

If you'll be my woman, I'll be your one and only man



And there'll be no more crying, I'll make your dreams come true

You know I'll never turn my back on you



Take you to the city, girl, we're gonna buy some clothes

Dress you up so pretty and then we'll take in all the shows

Find a place that's jumping, where the music's tight

And we'll keep on dancing 'til the morning light



If you'll be my woman, I'll be your one and only man, oh yeah

If you'll be my woman, I'll be your man

Know I'm gonna give you everything I can

If you'll be my woman, I'll be your man,

There'll be no more running, gonna make a stand
