BEE GEES lyrics - Heavy Breathing

Well, this is my last connection, I been slowing up the line.

Ain't no satisfaction in this troubled head of mine.

Gotta get back to the highway, gonna get back to where I know.

'cause sooner or later there's gonna be a showdown,

Gotta go man, gotta go.



Hell, I'm so so tired, so so tired.

And I don't know where I'm gonna start.

It's only heavy breathing in the dark.



Ain't nobody's sweetheart, ain't nobody's fool.

And if the sun don't set on my house babe,

I'd be the last man to blow my cool.

I feel my body shake.

Well, there's so much left to say.

Spend my life anticipatin'.

Gonna find a way.



Hey, I'm so so tired, so so tired.

And I don't know where I'm gonna start.

It's only heavy breathing in the dark.



(break)



So so tired.

So so tired.

And I don't know where I'm gonna start.

Only heavy breathing in the dark.

Only heavy breathing in the dark.

It's only heavy breathing in the dark.



Well, I don't believe in ev'rything you say just to save my soul.

You know there's got to be a way better than a big black hole.

Gotta take me from my suicide.

Now you know it's love I crave.

You know we got to live like this from the cradle to the grave.



So so so so tired.

So so so so tired.

I'm so so so so tired.



(repeat last verse and fade )

DAVID BYRNE lyrics - Fuzzy Freaky

Rose is tattooed in a perfect place

She bears the burden of a pretty face

The monkey boy, the leopard girl

The strange is also beautiful



It's summer time and the grass is high

Fuzzy freaky, funny family



It's my body and I'll eat it too

To do whatever touches you

My body speaks, my tongue cannot

My belly rumbles but the words are stuck

So come out



It's summer time and the weeds are high

Fuzzy freaky, funny family



All amplified, she's scandalized

And I'm changing size

Who was it?, jump on it

He's talking trash, and he can't get back

But he's meant to last

Inspired, desired

I'm walking low, my grass has grown

And I won't stay down

Excited, delighted



I'm awfully cute, I'm awfully cold

I'm sometimes rich and I'm sometimes poor

A butterfly when I graduate

You'll have to stop me if I get too big



Stop me



It's summer time and the weeds are high

Fuzzy funny, freaky family



He's in reverse, he'll kiss himself

In perfect health

Inflated, x-rated

And I smell you now

In a haunted house

In a squeaky sound

Inspired, desired



Now I'm wide enough

And I'm almost grown

And I won't stay down

Somebody, somebody



Inspired, desired



Excited, delighted

ELVIS PRESLEY lyrics - Teddy Bear

(Mann-Low)



Baby let me be,

your lovin' Teddy Bear

Put a chain around my neck,

and lead me anywhere

Oh let me be

Your teddy bear.



I don't wanna be a tiger

Cause tigers play too rough

I don't wanna be a lion

'Cause lions ain't the kind

you love enough.

Just wanna be, your Teddy Bear

Put a chain around my neck

and lead me anywhere

Oh let me be

Your teddy bear.



Baby let me be, around you every night

Run your fingers through my hair,

And cuddle me real tight

PATTY LOVELESS lyrics - Silver Bells

Christmas makes you feel emotional

It may bring parties or thoughts devotional

Whatever happens or what may be,

Here is what Christmas time means to me.



City sidewalk, busy sidewalks

Dressed in holiday style.

In the air there's a feeling of Christmas.



Children laughing, people passing,

Meeting smile after smile,

And on every street corner you'll hear:



Silver bells, silver bells,

It's Christmas time in the city.

Ring-a-ling, hear them ring,

Soon it will be Christmas day.



City street lights, even stop lights,

Blink a bright red and green,

As the shoppers rush home with their treasures.



Hear the snow crunch, see the kids bunch,

This is Santa's big scene,

And above all this bustle you'll hear:



Silver bells, silver bells,

It's Christmas time in the city.

Ring-a-ling, hear them ring,

Soon it will be Christmas day

MORRISSEY lyrics - The First Of The Gang To Die

You have never been in love, Until you have seen the stars, reflect in the reservoirs

And you have never been in love, Until you have seen the dawn rise, behind the home for the blind



We are the pretty, petty thieves, And you're standing on our streets

Where Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand

And the first to do time, the first of the gang to die, Oh my

Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand

And the first to do time, the first of the gang to die, Oh my



You have never been in love, Until you've seen the sunlight thrown, Over smashed human bone



We are the pretty, petty thieves, And you're standing on our streets

Where Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand

And the first to do time, the first of the gang to die, Such a silly boy

Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand

And the bullet in his gullet and the first lost lad to go under the sod



And he stole from the rich and the poor and not very rich and the very poor

And he stole our hearts away

He stole our hearts away, He stole our hearts away

He stole our hearts away, He stole our hearts away

MICK JAGGER lyrics - Primitive Cool

(Jagger)



A place far in the future

And faces from the past

And children reading history books

Their faces light and laugh

It all seems so primitive

How did you survive?

It all seemed so different then

How did you stay alive?



Did you walk cool in the fifties daddy?

Was it black and white?

Did you play jazz all night?

Was it really so wonderful?

Did you walk cool in the fifties daddy?

Did you dress like James Dean?

Did you wear dungarees?

Did you dance to the Rhumba?



Was it all just crazy fashion?

I said oh yeah

Did you live life with a passion?

I said oh yeah



Does it all have some strange meaning?

Can it change my life today?

Or is it all so much flotsam and jetsam?

Tell me right away



Did you walk cool in the sixties daddy?

Did you fight in the war?

Or did you chase all the whores

On the rock and roll rumble?

Did you walk cool in the sixties daddy?

Did you fight in the war?

Did you break all the laws

That were ready to crumble?



Was it just a crazy fashion?

I said oh yeah

Did you live life with a passion?

I said oh yeah



Does it have some inner meaning?

Can it change my life today?

Or is it all so much flotsam and jetsam?

Tell me right away



Well I think you've got it figured

Go check it out yourself

Cause I've had it playing teacher for today



Did you walk cool primitive cool?

Did you know Dr. King?

Was he ever so humble?

Did you walk cool primitive cool?

Did you break all the laws

That were ready to crumble?



A place far in the future

And faces from the past

And children reading history books

Their faces light and laugh

It all seems so primitive

How did you survive?

It all seemed so different then

How did you stay alive?

QUEENSRYCHE lyrics - All The Promises

Is there some other way out of here?

Somewhere I could find myself?

Can't sleep enough, can't stay high.

All the promises... just another lie.



I've always been afraid except...

In the moments that I loved you.

The only time I felt strong

Was when you stood next to me.

I could make a stand if...

I could hold your hand again...



The road I've traveled is the hard way down,

Always playing another man's fool.

They offered a way inside

With the promise of forgiveness. It's a lie.

Could you forgive what I've done?



We had it all, but couldn't see anything,

The blind leading the blind

Through the darkest night.



When you said you loved me

It made me feel alive.

When you said you loved me it made me feel...

Like I could fly.



I've always lived afraid except...

In the moments that I loved you.

The only time I felt strong was when you stood next to me.

I could make a stand if...

I could hold your hand again.



We had it all, but couldn't see anything,

The blind leading the blind through

The darkest of nights.

When you said you loved me it made me feel alive.



When you said you loved me

It made me feel... like I could fly.



I've always been afraid except in the moments

That I loved you.

ERIC CLAPTON lyrics - Whatcha Gonna Do

(Peter Tosh)



Mama, mama, dem hold papa,

Say they charge him fe' smoke ganja.

If me never jump the fence dem hold me too,

So tell me mama, what we gonna do?



[Chorus:]

Oh, mama, whatcha gonna do now?

Oh, mama, whatcha gonna do?

Oh, mama, whatcha gonna do now?

Oh, mama, whatcha gonna do?



Next week, next week is the case.

Him have a dread judge to face.

Him ha' fe' either see in space

Or make the doctor man work on him face.



[Chorus]



Next door neighbor, dem hold your son,

They say they find him with one gun,

An' there's no need to mention

Him going to get an indefinite detention.



[Chorus]



Him know nobody

So him ha' fe' remain in custody.

Him see Babylon, him stand up an' screw,

Say, him never knew it was a curfew.



[Chorus 2x]

TOM WAITS lyrics - Goin' Down Slow

Well It's a quarter a two

and looking at you

and going down, going down slow

Well It's a quarter a two

and looking at you

and going down, going down slow

TV went off about one, we have only begun

I know that the Wednesday may come

but I have no intention of going home

Well It's a quarter a three

digging on me

and going down, going down slow

Could stay here all night,

they claim your outta sight

please get up and turn out the light

There ain't nothing better than the middle of the night

And It's a quarter a four

begging for more

and going down, going down slow

going down, going down slow

going down, going down slow

going down, going down slow

DAVID BOWIE lyrics - Word On A Wing

In this age of grand illusion

You walked into my life

out of my dreams

I don't need another change

Still you forced away

into my scheme of things



You say we're growing,

growing heart and soul

In this age of grand illusion

You walked into my life

out of my dreams

Sweet name, you're born once again for me

Sweet name, you're born once again for me

Oh sweet name, I call you again

You're born once again for me

Just because I believe don't mean I don't think as well

Don't have to question everything

in heaven or hell



[CHORUS]

Lord, I kneel and offer you

my word on a wing

And I'm trying hard to fit

among your scheme of things



It's safer than a strange land

But I still care for myself

And I don't stand in my own light

Lord, lord, my prayer flies

like a word on a wing



My prayer flies

like a word on a wing

Does my prayer fit in

with your scheme of things?



In this age of grand illusion

You walked into my life

out of my dreams

Sweet name, you're born once again for me

Just as long as I can see, I'll never stop this vision flowing

I look twice and you're still flowing

Just as long as I can walk

I'll walk beside you, I'm alive in you

Sweet name, you're born once again for me

And I'm ready to shape the scheme of things



Ooh, ready to shape

the scheme of things [5 times]



[CHORUS]

RICHARD MARX lyrics - Thanks To You

You gave me life,

Gave me your heart

Your shoulder when I needed to cry

You gave me hope when all my hope is gone

Wings so my dreams can fly

And I haven't told you enough

Haven't been good enough, making you see



[Chorus:]

My love for you will live in my heart

Until eternity's through....

I see your smile in the eyes of my child

I am who I am, Mama, Thanks to you



You gave me your word,

Gave me your voice

Gave me your everything,

Each breath of your life

You believe when I can never have

You teach my faith to survive

And I never can do enough

Never thank you enough, for all that you are



[Chorus]



I know the treasure, I'm filled with grace

Whenever I see your face



And I see your smile in the eyes of my child

I am who I am, Mama, Thanks to You

To you.....

NEIL YOUNG lyrics - Prairie Wind

Trying to remember what my daddy said

Before too much time took away his head

He said we're going back and I'll show you what I'm talking about

Going back to Cypress River, back to the old farmhouse



(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

(Trying to remember what Daddy said)

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)



I tried to tell the people but they never heard a word I say

They say there's nothing out there but wheat fields anyway

Just a farmer's wife hanging laundry in her back yard

Out on the prairie where the winds blow long and hard



(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

(Trying to remember what Daddy said)

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)



Late at night, lights dancing in the northern sky

Like the Indian spirits trying to show me how to fly

You can see into the future but it may be a mirage

Like a new car sitting there in your old garage



(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

(Trying to remember what Daddy said)



There's a place on the prairie where evil and goodness play

Daddy told me all about it but I don't remember what he said

It might be afternoon and it might be the dead of night

But you'll know when you see it 'cause it sure is a hell of a sight



(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)



(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)



Prairie wind blowing through my head

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

Trying to remember what Daddy said

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

Before too much time took away his head

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

He said we're going back and I'll show you what I'm talking about

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)



(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

Going back to Cypress River, back to the old farmhouse

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)



(Prairie wind blowing through my head)

(Trying to remember what Daddy said)

(Prairie wind blowing through my head)...

ELVIS PRESLEY lyrics - Playing For Keeps

(Kessler)



I'm playin' for keeps

This time it's real

And I want you to know

Exactly how I feel

I'm playin' for keeps

I'm sure this time

And I won't be happy

Until I know you're mine



There have been others

That could love me true

But no one else can thrill me like you do

I'm playin' for keeps

Oh love me too

Oh, don't make me sorry

That I fell in love with you



There have been others

That could love me true

But no one else can thrill me like you do

I'm playin' for keeps

Oh love me too

Oh, don't make me sorry

That I fell in love with you

JOHN PRINE lyrics - In A Town This Size

(Kieran Kane)



In a town this size, there's no place to hide

Everywhere you go you meet someone you know

You can't steal a kiss in a place like this

How the rumors do fly in a town this size

In a smokey bar in the backseat of your car

In your own little house someone's sure to find you out

What you do and what you think

What you eat and what you drink

If you smoke a cigarette they'll be talkin' about your breath



In a town this size, there's no place to hide

Everywhere you go you meet someone you know

You can't steal a kiss in a place like this

How the rumors do fly in a town this size



Oh, I had a fight with my girlfriend last night

Before the moon went down it was all over town

How he made me cry how I said goodbye

If it's true or not doesn't seem to count alot



In a town this size, there's no place to hide

Everywhere you go you meet someone you know

You can't steal a kiss in a place like this

How the rumors do fly in a town this size

In a town this size In a town this size

CHRIS REA lyrics - Born To Lose

Love started out like fresh April dawn

Dreams I have left faded and torn



I was born to lose baby

I was born to lose baby



There was this woman when I was a boy

She was my queen and I was her toy



I was born to lose baby

I was born to lose baby



Now I could not give what the rich man could give no

Only myself for as long as I live



I was born to lose baby

Oh I was born to lose baby



Born to lose

Born to lose

Born to lose

ROD STEWART lyrics - Human

Ah:

Ah:ah:

Ah:

Ah:human



I been lookin' in the mirror somethin's gettin' clearer

Wonderin' who am I

Just a chemical solution caught in evolution

Only livin' to survive



Or am I just another lifetime lookin' for a lifeline

Cryin' when the sun don't shine

Am I runnin' through the ghetto maybe I should let go

Of all the dreams inside



But who am I to reach so high

And who am I to raise my eyes

Want to live

I want to die

I can't do anything I'll tell you why



I'm the one who took a walk on the moon

And I made the seven wonders too

There is nothin' that I cannot do

Cause I am human

There is nothing that I cannot be

I'm the one who sailed the seven seas

And I know that it is all in me

Cause I am human



The blood that's runnin' through my veins

It tells me I'm the same as all the other ones gone by

In the air that I am breathin', emotions that I'm feelin'

Underneath the same blue sky



And I know if I believe it, then I can achieve it

Nothin's standin' in my way

Then maybe history will make a place for me

And I'll be livin' for that day



But who am I to reach so high

And who am I to raise my eyes

Want to live

I want to die

I can't do anything I'll tell you why



I'm the one who took a walk on the moon

And I made the seven wonders too

There is nothin' that I cannot do

Cause I am human

There is nothing that I cannot be

I'm the one who sailed the seven seas

And I know that it is all in me

Cause I am human



Not born to make mistakes, not born to fade away

Not only livin' to survive

Don't tell me I am nothin', know that I am somethin'

Brother, don't ya realise



I'm the one who took a walk on the moon

And I made the seven wonders too

There is nothin' that I cannot do

Cause I am human

There is nothing that I cannot be

I'm the one who sailed the seven seas

And I know that it is all in me

Cause I am human



Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

I'm the one

I am human



Oh, yeah



Ah:

Ah:ah:

Ah:

Ah:human

VAN MORRISON lyrics - I Don't Want Much

(Mose Allison)



I don't want much in this world

It's th' simple things I treasure

'Till I die I would get by on fame, riches and sensual pleasure



I don't ask much in this life

No special consideration

Just treat me like His Majesty

Of a friendly OPEC nation



Some people

Just don't know when to stop

Some people

Just won't quit until they reach the top



But I'm so easy going

I'd make my way through life

On love and understanding

From a rich and beautiful life



Some people

Just never seem to get enough

Some people

Want salvation, paradise and all that stuff



But I'm so easy going

Don't even keep the score

All I want is plenty, but I will take more

If you ask me

I will take more

Say please

I will

Take more

RICKIE LEE JONES lyrics - Love Junkyard

Dented bodies, broken souls

Wilted roses, hearts grow cold

Unhappy endings and shattered dreams

???



Where's the candlelight, where's the smiles

Man this place goes on for miles

There's heaps and heaps of wedding rings

Equal space for tramps and kings



There's no doberman dogs or security guards at the love junkyard

Open twenty four hours, come as you are, yeah, to the love junkyard



Tanks of teardrops shed in vain

Mixin with the pouring rain

Promises go up in smoke

Freight cars full of abandoned hurt and hope



There's no doberman dogs or security guards at the love junkyard

Open twenty four hours, come as you are, yeah, to the love junkyard



Tiny trysts or grand affairs, there's no more need for teddy bears

The time for pretty words has past, so fly the flag of love half mast

At the love junkyard, yeah



There's no dobermans though or security guards at the love junkyard

Open twenty four hours, bring your broken heart, to the love junkyard



To the love, to the love junkyard

Is that you, is that you, is that you baby, is that you...

Look what I've done for you...

RAY PARKER JR. lyrics - The Past

I was wrong when I hurt you

But did you have to hurt me too

Did you think revenge will make it better?

I don't care about the past

I just want our love to last

There's a way to bring us back together



[Chorus:]

I must forgive you (I must forgive you)

You must forgive me too (we must have to try)

If you wanna try to put things back the way they used to be

(honey let's start again)

'Cause there's no sense in going over and over

The same things as before

So let's not bring the past back anymore

(no looking back, we can't look back)

(honey let's start again)



Out of all the good we had

You only keep track of the bad

Though you knew I never really loved her

Didn't anyone tell you yet

That to forgive is to forget

How can you be mad if you don't remember



[Chorus:]

I must forgive you (I must forgive you)

You must forgive me too (we must have to try)

If you wanna try to put things back the way they used to be

(honey let's start again)

'Cause there's no sense in going over and over

The same things as before

So let's not bring the past back anymore

(no looking back, we can't look back)

(honey let's start again)



I must forgive you

And you must forgive me too

It's the only thing that's left that we haven't try to do

One thing I'm sure will work

That we haven't tried before

Let's not bring the past back anymore

(no looking back, no looking back)

(honey let's start again)

TANITA TIKARAM lyrics - Yodelling Song

The first time you stole flowers from the grave

Then, the second time, you shaved your head, you had been saved

By the very friendly, Jesus man

And all he said, "Well, I'm your brother, man"



In the winter time you - you wore patch-work hard-me-downs

In the summer time - you were all bronzed, while I was brown

And they didn't ask you where you got the candy

No, they didn't ask you where you got the tan



In the morning time - we played travels in the sea

In the evening time - we had reduced the sea to me

But your mother saved us - from your daddy's hand

Yeah - your mother saved us - from your daddy's hand

From your daddy

From your daddy



With my adult mind -

You know my body feels so strange

If they'd only sign away my life to me

I could be much saner

If they'd only learn to let me

Freedom seek

The world would be less mean

But they never know - how to let you go

But they never know - how to leace me



Yodel - ee

Yod - el - ee

T. REX lyrics - The Woodland Bop

Everybody's doing the Woodland Bop

Once you start you will find it hard to stop.

In the hallowed morning

See her in the moon-white

Streaking across the skies

In the evening dusk dunes

See her like a sun bird

Streaking across the skies

VAN MORRISON lyrics - Sittin' On Top Of The World

(Trad. arranged by Van Morrison & Carl Perkins)



You come here runnin'

Holdin' out your hand

I'm gonna get me a woman, baby

And you can have that man

Lord, I'm gone, gone, gone

I don't worry

Lord, I am sitting on top of the world

Yes, I am



How you think about it, Van?



I worked all summer, and all the fall

I even spent Christmas, in my overalls

But now, childs gone (yeah, she is)

An' I don't worry (boy, don't worry)

'Cause I'm sittin' on top of the world



(Lord, I reckon)



[Instrumental]



That Mississippi River

Is so deep an' wide

My baby's standin', Lord

On the other side

Oh, but now she's gone, gone, gone

An I don't worry

'Cause I am sittin' on top of this world



Can you blow me some of that horn, cat now?



[Instrumental & sax solo]



One summer's day (ooh-huh)

She went away (she went)

She went and left me

For good, to stay

And now she's gone

An' I don't worry

'Cause I'm sittin' on top of the world, yeah



A-you come here runnin'

Holdin' out your hand

I'm gonna get me a woman

An' you can have your man

Well, now she's gone, gone, gone

An' I don't worry

'Cause I'm sittin' on top of the world.



Get it.

SONIC YOUTH lyrics - Hey Joni

Hey Joni put it all behind you

Hey Joni now I've put it all behind me too

These times can't add up

Yr life is such a mess

Forget the past, and just say yes



Tell me Joni, am I the one

To see you through?

In this broken town can you still jack in

And know what to do?

I remember our youth, our high ideals

I remember you were so uptight

That time in the trees, we broke that vice

We took some steps and now

We can't think twice



Tell me Joni, am I right by you?

Tell me how yr gonna lose this hard luck?

Hey Joni, when will all these dreams come true?

You'd better find a way

To climb down off that truck



Shots ring out from the center of an empty field

Joni's in the tall grass

She's a beautiful mental jukebox

A sailboat explosion

A snap of electric whipcrack



She's not thinking about the future

She's not spinning her wheels

She doesn't think at all about the past

She thinking long and hard

About that high wild sound

And wondering will it last?



Kick it



Hey Joni, put it all behind you

There's something turning, Joni, turning right to you

My head burns, but I know you'll speak the truth, hey!

Hey Joni, put it all behind you

Hey Joni, now I've put it all behind me too

Forget the future

These times are such a mess

Tune out the past, and just say yes



It's 1963

It's 1964

It's 1957

It's 1962



Put it all behind you

Now it's all behind you

CHER lyrics - Sisters Of Mercy

Your faith is not faithful

Your grace has no grace

Your mercy shows no mercy

Is there no way out of this place?



There's a baby crying softly

In a dark and dangerous place

She's imprisones by no language

Fear grips her tiny face



In God's house she's held a hostage

By a cruel and heartless mob

There's some rules they think God's written

And it justifies their job



Sisters of mercy[sisters of mercy]

Daughters of hell[daughters of hell]

They always weave their web of lies

And wrap you in their wicked spell

Sisters of mercy[sisters of mercy]

Masters of pain[masters of pain]

They try to crucify your innocence

And do it in God's name



There's a baby sobbing softly

In a crib that's now a cage

She's done nothing to deserve this

But it sanctifies their rage



They use God like he's a weapon

Only for a chosen few

Then hide behind pious faces

Like the guilty always do



Sisters of mercy[sisters of mercy]

Mothers of shame[mothers of shame]

A baby only gets to heaven

If she's baptised in his name

Sisters of mercy[sisters of mercy]

Daughters of war[Daughters of war]

This chicks administer your penance

While the Devil guards their door



Your faith is not faithful

Your grace has no grace

Your mercy shows no mercy

Is there no way out of this place?



There's a baby who's a warrior

Sometimes tears run down her face

As she wonders should she fight

Or simply vanish from this race



If she's only learned one lesson

It's pride comes before a fall

The karma train waits for no man

But God waits for us all



Sisters of mercy[sisters of mercy]

Twisters of truth[twisters of truth]

I can't condemn you or forgive you

For your sins done in my youth

Sisters of mercy[sisters of mercy]

Daughters of Cain[Daughters of Cain]

I see their wilted faded powers rotting flowers

Left like rags out in the rain



Sisters of mercy[sisters of mercy]

Mothers of hell[mothers of hell]

Your mercy shows no mercy

Is there no way out of this place?

Is there no way out of this place?



Your faith is not faithful

Your grace has no grace

Your mercy shows no mercy

Is there no way out of this place?

Is there no way out of this place?



Your faith is not faithful

Your grace has no grace

Your mercy shows no mercy

Is there no way out of this place?

Is there no way out of this place?



Your grace has no grace

PAUL MCCARTNEY & WINGS lyrics - Getting Closer

Say You Don't Love Him, My Salamander.

Why Do You Need Him?

Oh No, Don't Answer, Oh No.



I'm Getting Closer,

I'm Getting Closer To Your Heart.



Keeping Ahead Of The Rain On The Road,

Watching My Windscreen Wipers.

Radio Play Me A Danceable Ode,

Cattle Beware Of Snipers.



When Will You See Me, My Salamander?

Now Don't Try To Tell Me

Oh No, Don't Answer, Oh No.



L'm Getting Closer,

I'm Getting Closer To Your Heart.



Hitting The Chisel And Making A Joint,

Glueing My Fingers Together.

Radio Play Me A Song With A Point,

Sailor Beware Of Weather.



L'm Getting Closer, My Salamander.

Well When Will We Be There?

Ah No, Don't Answer, Oh No.



L'm Getting Closer,

I'm Getting Closer To Your Heart.

I'm Getting Closer To Your Heart.

I'm Getting Closer To Your Heart.

NEIL DIAMOND lyrics - At The Movies

Movie show,

Where almost anything can happen

Movie time,

Anything you can imagine

C'mon, C'mon, C'mon, C'mon let's go

You got to see it to believe it

I hear that Hollywood's a very tough scene

Where else does someone eat their

Co-star on screen



Hey if you ever want to get away quick

There's nothing quicker then the movies

The guilty pleasure of a shoot-em-up flick

Enjoyed at leisure at the movie show



Bring along a new girl

Movie time,

And maybe sit a little closer

Look out, look out, look out, look out

Oh no I hear an alien comin'

And when she sees it

She'll be right in your seat

Is there a better way for people to meet



You want adventure

They discovered the stuff

Don't need to venture past the movies

You need romance,

They give you more than enough

They'll song and dance you

At the movie show



Movie show, hey the earth is in danger

Movie time and only one man can save us

C'mon, C'mon, C'mon, C'mon let's go

You know the odds are outrageous

And by the time he finally wins the fight

We're eating popcorn at the speed of light



You want to put yourself

Right into the scene

Well you can do it at the movies

Or maybe somethin'

That'll just make you scream

Why not go through it at the movies

You crave a mystery that boggles the mind

Well you can find it at the movies

A happy ending

That puts chills up your spine

There's one unwinding at the movie show,

Yeah

Love's made for finding at the movie show

BRENDA LEE lyrics - Jesus Loves Me

Jesus loves me! This I know,

For the Bible tells me so;

Little ones to Him belong,

They are weak but He is strong.

Yes, Jesus loves me!

Yes, Jesus loves me!

Yes, Jesus loves me!

The Bible tells me so.



Jesus loves me! He who died,

Heaven's gate to open wide;

He will wash away my sin,

Let His little child come in.

Yes, Jesus loves me!

Yes, Jesus loves me!

Yes, Jesus loves me!

The Bible tells me so.



Jesus loves me! loves me still,

When I'm very weak and ill;

From His shining throne on high,

Comes to watch me where I lie.

Yes, Jesus loves me!

Yes, Jesus loves me!

Yes, Jesus loves me!

The Bible tells me so.



Jesus loves me! He will stay,

Close beside me all the way;

He's prepared a home for me,

And some day His face I'll see.

Yes, Jesus loves me!

Yes, Jesus loves me!

Yes, Jesus loves me!

The Bible tells me so.

COCTEAU TWINS lyrics - My Truth

You become a world for his

New heart, accepting

And you can work

Through the pain

Or enjoy the pleasure

Commit to the work of both

If your love has energy

You have chemistry

And you can work

Through the pain

Or enjoy the pleasure

You can you can you can work

Through the pain

Or enjoy the pleasure

You can you can you can work

Through the pain

And come to peace

It's frightening

Exciting

Something shakes of forlorn understanding

The truth is not perfect

But it fools and confuses

Every moment vaguely

You can you can you can work

Through the pain

Or enjoy the pleasure

You can you can you can work

Through the pain

And come to peace

I remember my secret

I write it down and then I tell you it

It's not harm free

Outside of myself

What has saved me?

C-c-c-c-can work through the pain

Or enjoy the pleasure

You c-c-c-c-c-c-can work through the pain

And come to peace

You can work through the pain

Or enjoy the pleasure

BELINDA CARLISLE lyrics - Shades Of Michaelangelo

(Belinda Carlisle/Charlotte Caffey)



A still-life portrait

A view from my window

Touched by innocence

Now fading away

Into a quiet storm

Of the tears of the angels

Falling around me

As I'm watching the days



I frame colors of passion

Against a fading sky



With a stroke of love

On the canvas of my soul

I'm painting a perfect world

With shades of Michaelangelo

With each promise made

In every heart that knows

We can live in a perfect world

in shades of Michaelangelo



A seed of hope

Grows in my garden

I feel the earth

Beneath my feet

Running through my mind

Are dreams of a future

Where all of this world

Works in harmony



I frame colors of passion

Against a fading sky



I hear songs of children

Echo in the sky

I hear songs of children

A tomorrow so bright

NAZARETH lyrics - Whiteboy

Send him to the fields, send him to the wars

Send him on down to slave on the farms

Steal his land, rob his soul

Send him on down to dig that hole



Give him no hope, give him no trial

Put him in chains, break that smile

Pull that barge, tote that bale

Listen to him singin', hear him wail



You wouldn't do that to a whiteboy

You wouldn't do that to a whiteboy

You wouldn't do that to a whiteboy



Give him no peace, give him no rest

Teach him to believe your god is the best

Sail him away, to the promised land

Send him on down into his masters hand

Take his woman, take his child

Take him on down to the murder mile

Pull that barge, tote that bale

What's that song you hear him wail



Now you wonder why he's an angry man

Why there's fire in your father's land

And wonder now what tomorrow will bring

Will you hear him screamin', will you hear him sing.

DAVID BYRNE lyrics - Dialog Box

(David Byrne)



Picture this

Bumping lips

Everyone talks

Do a dialogue box



They shake and bake

Make a cranky face

They got rocks in the head

Got rocks in the bed



Pull the hood down

Grab the fold out

Is it too loud?

Is it all right?



Makin' contact

And you know that

Need a tight fit

To survive



Romeo

Said Juliette

Got a dialogue box

Hey look at me, that's my answer



All Sparkly white

Shiny bright

A genuine smile

The Renegade style



Gonna heat 'em up

And stir the pot

bake it a while

Then cool on the side



Tribulation

Revelation

Absolution

Prophesized



I'm a rich man,

I'm a poor man

But the main thing

I'm alive



Lost in Space

Cosmic haze

Beautiful wreck

Special effect



Clean and pure

Swift and sure

I'm ready to drop

In a dialogue box



Decoration

Innovation

My creation

Any size



If you try it

And you like it

You can have it customized



Gonna test ya

With a gesture

Do I feel ya?

Are ya scared?



In the darkness

In the details

At the movies

Or a play



All crinkled up

Delirious

Fall through the cracks

In a dialogue box



With a smiley bump

Gonna line 'em up

And the question I ask



Hey look at me

That's my answer

AMY GRANT lyrics - Fairest Lord Jesus

Fairest Lord Jesus,

Ruler of all nature,

O Thou of God and man the Son,

Thee will I cherish, Thee will I honor,

Thou, my soul's glory, joy and crown.



Fair are the meadows, fairer still the woodlands,

Robed in the blooming garb of spring;

Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer,

Who makes the woeful heart to sing.



Fair is the sunshine,

Fairer still the moonlight,

And all the twinkling starry host;

Jesus shines brighter, Jesus shines purer

Than all the angels heaven can boast.



All fairest beauty, heavenly and earthly,

Wondrously, Jesus, is found in Thee;

None can be nearer, fairer or dearer,

Than Thou, my Savior, art to me.



Beautiful Savior! Lord of all the nations!

Son of God and Son of Man!

Glory and honor, praise, adoration,

Now and forever more be Thine.

STEVIE WONDER lyrics - Sorry

Into each life there comes a time

When you must pay your lovers' dues

Breakin' out in a cold sweat

Cause you've been rightfully accused



I'm not such a strong man

That love can't make me weak

You're walkin' out the door

And it's hurting me so deep, so deep



And I'm sorry

Sorry that I made you cry

Sorry, sorry that I told you lies

I'm sorry, sorry the way we fuss and fight

I'm sorry, sorry cause now you're

saying goodbye to me



Every young boy will grow up

To then become a man

Then the difference from wrong and right

He clearly understands

I'm not such a big man

That I can't break down in tears

Cause my whole body went into shock

When you told me you were out of here! Out of here!



And I'm sorry

Sorry that I made you cry

Sorry, sorry that I told you lies

I'm sorry, sorry the way we fuss and fight

I'm sorry, sorry cause now you're saying

goodbye to me, to me



I'm sorry baby, that I ever did it to you

I'm sorry baby, that I ever made you cry

I'm sorry baby, that I ever did it to you

I'm sorry baby, that I ever told you lies

I'm sorry baby, that I ever did it to you

I'm sorry baby, sorry the way we fuss and fight

I'm sorry baby, that I ever did it to you

I'm sorry baby, so sorry



If you added up all the good times

And compared them with the bad

You'd realize that our love

Was the best you ever had



I'm not such a proud man

That I won't cop a plea

See me baby girl, I'm on my knees

Beggin please, baby please, baby please, oh yeah



I'm sorry, sorry that I made you cry

Sorry, sorry that I told you lies

I'm sorry, I'm sorry the way we fuss and fight

I'm sorry, sorry cause now you're

saying goodbye to me, me baby, me baby, me baby



I'm sorry baby, that I ever did it to you

I'm sorry baby, that I ever told you lies

I'm sorry baby, that I ever did it to you

I'm sorry baby, that I ever made you cry

I'm sorry baby, that I ever did it to you

I'm sorry baby, sorry the way we fuss and fight

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, sorry, sorry,

sorry, sorry [repeat]

DEEP PURPLE lyrics - Mistreated

(Ritchie Blackmore & David Coverdale)



I've been mistreated, I've been abused.

I've been struck downhearted, baby, I've been confused

'cause I know, yes, I know I've been mistreated.

Since my baby left me I've been losing my mind, you know I have.



I've been lonely, I've been cold.

I've been looking for a woman to have and hold

'cause I know, yes, I know I've been mistreated.

Since my baby left me I've been losing, I've been losing,

I've been losing my mind, baby baby babe.



I've been mistreated, I've been abused.

I've been looking for a woman, yeh, I've been confused

'cause I know, yes, I know I've been mistreated, ooh o-o-oh.

Since my baby left me I've been losing, losing,

I've been losing my mind, baby baby babe.

Oh oh oh, oh woman, oh woman, oh woman.



I've been losing my mind.

MICK JAGGER lyrics - Evening Gown

(Jagger)



People say that I'm high class

But I'm low down all the while

People think That I'm crazy

When I flash that California smile



But I can still paint the town

All the colour of your evening gown

While I'm waiting for your blonde hair

To turn grey



People say I'm a drinker

But I'm sober half the time

People say I'm a loser

But I get lucky on the side



Yeah but I can still paint the town

All the colour of your evening gown

While I'm waiting for your blonde hair

To turn grey



All my life I waited for

Someone who would show where the bliss is

All my life I waited for

Someone who would take me past the kissing



People say I'm a loner

I like to get lost in the crowds

People call me a dresser

I wear my sports clothes way too loud



Yeah but I can still paint the town

I can shake it and turn it upside down

While I'm waiting for your blonde hair

While I'm waiting for your blonde hair

While I'm waiting for your blonde hair

To turn grey

RICKY NELSON lyrics - Enjoy And Get It On

Oh I'm makin' my way back home

Least that's what I told her on the phone

Been a while since I made her smile

And I know she's gonna dig my style

Could she enjoy me

Really enjoy, gettin' it on



Could I get some of that

When I come in off of the road

Does she still have her fighting gear

Just one look is gonna make it clear

Could she enjoy me

Really enjoy, gettin' it on

Alright



How does it feel holdin' me again

She's holdin' on like it'll never end

Well I'm home thinkin', I should stay

While I'm here just let me hear you say

Say you enjoy babe

Really enjoy, gettin' it on

CHICAGO lyrics - Overnight Cafe

(Words & Music by Peter Cetera)



All alone on the road near the other side of town;

In the dark of the night and the rain was fallin' down;

Up ahead, said a sign, was the Overnight Cafe;

Maybe one for the road just to pass the night away.

Then she came in the room and she moved across the floor

With the look of a woman who's been through it all before;

Then she smiled as she spoke, and it made me realize

That the time was right, and the love was in her eyes;

That the time was right, and the love was in her eyes.

Then she asked and I told her that I was due in town.

Hey mama, can you tell me what's on your mind?

Then she told me that she'd like to see me hang around.

And maybe I could take her home,

Never know what could happen when we're both alone.

Now I'm back on the road and I'm running overtime;

Turn around if I could, and you know it crossed my mind;

But I know I'll be back 'cause she made me realize

That the time was right, and the love was in her eyes;

That the time was right, and the love was in her eyes.

THE CURE lyrics - Object

You know you turn me on

Eyes so wide and legs so long

But don't try to talk to me

I won't listen to your lies

You're just an object in my eyes



Sophisticated smile

You seduce in such fine style

But don't try to fool me

Because I can see through your disguise

You're just an object in my eyes



But I don't mind

I just don't care

I've got no objection

To you touching me...



Object object object object...



You know just what to do

Lick your lips

And I want you

But don't try to hold me

Because I don't want any ties

You're just an object in my eyes





But I don't mind

I just don't care

I've got no objections

To you touching me...



You're just an object

Object object object

You're just an object

People try to put us d-down (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

Just because we get around (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

Things they do look awful c-c-cold (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

MARIAH CAREY lyrics - Looking In

You look at me and see the girl

Who lives inside the golden world

But don't believe

That's all there is to see

You'll never know the real me

She smiles through a thousand tears

And harbours adolescent fears

She dreams of all

That she can never be

She wades in insecurity

And hides herself inside of me

Don't say she takes it all for granted

I'm well aware of all I have

Don't think that I am disenchanted

Please understand

It seems as though I've always been

Somebody outside looking in

Well, here I am for all of them to bleed

But they can't take my heart from me

And they can't bring me to my knees

They'll never know the real me

THE HOLLIES lyrics - Stop In The Name Of Love

(Holland / Dozier / Holland)



Oh baby I'm aware

Of where you go

Each time you leave my door

Watching you walking down the street

Knowing there's another guy you meet

This time before you run to him

Leaving me alone again



Think it over

Haven't I been good to you babe

Think it over



[Chorus:]

Stop in the name of love

Before you break my heart

Stop in the name of love

Before you tear it apart



I'm trying hard

Hard to be patient

Wish you'd stop

This infatuation

But each time I think of you together

I see myself losing you forever

This time before you leave my heart

And rush back into his arms



[Verse 2]



Haven't I been sweet to you baby



[Chorus 3x]

MARVIN GAYE lyrics - Heaven Sent You, I Know

[Backup singers:] Heaven must have sent you, I know



[Her:]

Every night I say a prayer

Before I go to sleep

Suddenly you were there

Your face so fine, your voice so sweet

In these arms of mine

I found you just in time

In this turn of the world

I was a lost and lonely girl

But then a miracle happened;

Heaven must have sent you, I know

(Yes I know)

I know (yes I know)



[Him:]

Funny how my empty heart

Used to feel like a heavy load

Suddenly you were there

Like a friend on a lonesome road

Right into these arms of mine

I found you, I found you just in time

'Cause I was a lonely man

Holding out my helpless hand

Then a miracle happened;

Heaven must have sent you, I know

(Yes I know)



[Both:]

Our time is here now

Now matter how the world is around

In your arms I find

Some kind of love and peace of mind

'Cause a miracle happened;

Heaven must have sent you, I know

(Yes I know)

DEREK lyrics - Cinnamon

Sneakin down your alley way

JOHN PRINE lyrics - It's Happening To You

Well it's the same old song

Boy meets girl

And girl meets boy

They carry on

They close their eyes

And kiss until the world is gone

Oh yes it's true

It's happening to you



You know what they say

They pledge their love forever

Then they add a day

They hold their hands so tight

In the fear

That one might stray

Oh yes it's true

It's happening to you



I loved her

She loved me too

We had a lot of love

Now it's all through



And for a while

Their hearts beat one

As they match each other

Smile for smile

They dance away the night

As they praise

The others style

Oh yes it's true

It's happening to you

BLACK SABBATH lyrics - Country Girl

Fell in love with a country girl, morning sunshine

She was up from a nether world, just to bust another soul

Her eyes were an endless flame, holy lightning

Desire with a special name, made to snatch your soul away, yeah



We sailed away on a crimson tide, gone forever

Left my heart on the other side, all to break it into bits

Her smile was a winter song, a Sabbath ending

Don't sleep or you'll find me gone, just an image in the air



In dreams I think of you

I don't know what to do with myself

Time has let me down

She brings broken dreams, fallen stars

The endless search for where you are

(Sail on, sail on)



Fell in love with a country girl, morning sunshine

She was up from a nether world, just to bust another soul

Her eyes were an endless flame, unholy lady

Desire with a special name, made to snatch your soul away, oh!



Don't sail away on a crimson tide!

Don't leave your heart on the other side!

Her eyes are an endless flame

Desire with a special name

Don't ever fall in love!

Don't give your heart away!

No never, never fall in love with a country girl!

ICE CUBE lyrics - Bangin'

[West Coast Bad Boyz II]



West-syy-eed



Huh, niggaz be like wonderin where tha Ice Cream Man been at

I been down South countin my marbles nigga

But I got two sides

Damn it feels good to be back in the Yea Area, I mean the Westside

With these motherfuckin West Coast Bad Boyz

Westside Connection, Ice Cube, W. C., and Mack 10

Nigga y'all know the Westside is Bout It Bout It



It's the I-N-G-L-E here to trouble you, W double-oh D

See me, I take this gangbang shit to hold mouthes

Beach coup, the hood patrol wit my flag in ya mommas style

I throw my set up, I ret up, Nigga I break up

No hollow points so I don't jam tha tec up, dog

I put tha Cavi all day to parlay, when niggaz trip I spray

Then is anybody here all day, shit I trizit to my clizit

Who wanna fuck wit it, since tha World is a ghetto

Looks like I'm stuck wit it, Killa Cali is the state murder

Everyday it's a homie, lay my rag in a casket and retaliate

Nigga who is you, what side is you, red or blue

I gets my drop on, I regulate the turf I stomp on

Everytime I see some I grabs me gun

Red rum red rum and Inglewood is where I be from

Boom boom bang on I bust back, fuck that

Loud strings in my chucks and a maroon velvet golf hat

I let my holsters hang loose, no truce, no tamin

Westside niggaz for life, it's gangbangin



[Chorus:]

Red rag blue rag, watchin niggaz sag

44 mag, throwin up flags

If you Bout it what you claimin, fuck what you slangin

Ain't no tamin Westside gangbangin



What do I got get high for, what would I lie for

And what would I die for

Westside is the best side you got to know

Keep a calico by the bedside, this what I'm all about

Now which one of y'all motherfuckers shot up my momma's house?

It ain't no rules when you ain't got

Nuttin to lose, and a gang of tattoos

So throw ya muthaphukkin, set high in the air

If you don't care, to ride a wheelchair

Watch what hood you select

Many niggaz get checked for the tat on they neck

We got the cannabis bombay, G ride Hyundai, ya best ta pray we don't

Find out where ya stay, lookin at my momma thru a glass window

Up in L. A. before it was called South Central

Makin niggaz like new statistics while bumpin my Stylistics, and

I'm locin, smokin dat yermon as a youngsta

Now I'm big and strong as Herman Munster

It's the set I threw up, tha only way ta go

It's the way i grew up, the only way I know, fa sho'

It ain't about Crip or Blood, and itьll never die

Because there's too much love



[Chorus]



High as a ki-zite tonite, rollin on my ci-zite

With that Dub-S to that C-lite

Iьm ready, but them niggaz on wait

Tey get beat like hussein by tis gangbang track

Young hustler, geyda pusher, leg crusher

Nigga make way for this Neighborhood quickster

Raised in a system, gang affiliated

America, take a look at what you created

Started in a section, grew like an erection, spreaded like cancer

Now tha country's infected, gangbangin world wide, beat the death pole

I guess the world really is a motherfuckin ghetto

But Westside niggaz are the craziest, that's why I'm keepin

My fingas on deez, loaded clips, cause we done served two of them men

Ain't no tellin what them niggaz gone get

If they done try to retaliate

I can't sleep, cause death is lookin foe me

I can't shake tha jacket, too many niggaz know me, Shazzam!!

I guess I'm in too deep, fuck cullas, Iьm riddin over low term beef



[Chorus 2x]



Gang bangin, huh, Cube nigga wassup, W. C., Mack 10, Master P

Gang bangin nigga, uhhhh, we rowdy, we Bout It Bout It

Makin green nigga, makin green



[Chorus]



Nigga it's all right ta be a G, Westside Connection

Live for red and blue, my nigga Masta P

But ain't no more God for us nigga

But we can live for that green

The legal way baby, the legal way

This song is dedicated, to everybody who fallen victim to gangbangin

World wide Westside, real niggaz of tha world unite

BARBRA STREISAND lyrics - The Shadow Of Your Smile

(P. F.Webster & J. Mandel)



The shadow of your smile

When you have gone

Will color all my dreams

And light the dawn



Look into my eyes, my love, and see

All the lovely things you are to me



Our wistful little star was far, too high

A teardrop kissed your lips

And so did I



Now when I remember spring

All the joy that love can bring

I will be remembering

The shadow of your smile



Now when I remember spring

All the joy that love can bring

I will be remembering

The shadow of your smile

Hmm, hmm...

SYD BARRETT lyrics - Two Of A Kind

(Wright, Barrett)



Open your eyes and don't be blind

Can't you see we're two of a kind?

I've got to say this, I hope you don't mind

I love you, we're two of a kind



Just ask yourself and you will find

We go together, we're two of a kind

No use protesting, be resigned

Baby you know, we're two of a kind



I knew it when I saw you

I felt it a little more when

I talked with you at first

All my blues dispersed

I couldn't disguise

My complete surprise

When you were feeling it too

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



Open your eyes and don't be blind

Can't you see we're two of a kind?

I've got to say this, I hope you don't mind

I love you, we're two of a kind

KYLIE MINOGUE lyrics - You're The One

If you believe in me,

And all we can be then we're halfway there.

'Cause where would I be without you,

And all we've through,

In this love we share.



If we were ever to start,

To let love fall apart,

Then I'd lose my way,

There are just three words I need to be heard,

I only want to say...



...You're the one



And the quietness,

Is where I confess,

How I feel inside,

When you're holding me,

Everything I need,

Is by my side.



Take me away to a place,

Time and space,

That make me feel pure,

I will be there for you,

I adore you

Of this I am sure...



...You're the one



Now that I have bared my soul for you,

A little trust wouldn't go astray,

Now that I have given it all to you,

Don't let a mishap get in the way.

'Cause it's a long way down from where you're sitting,

At the top of a jewelled throne,

And I've been done the deed,

More than once, more than twice

And they were left to pay the price alone.



If we were ever to start,

Drifting apart,

Then I'd lose my way,

In return to me,

In all honesty,

I need it when you say...



...You're the one

STATUS QUO lyrics - Riverside

(Rossi/Frost)



She left me cold and hungry by the riverside

She left me so downhearted there and I really cried

About mistakes I'd made and it's a crying shame

I can't believ the way they start all over again



She left me cold and hungry by the riverside

Without a word or a note, so I couldn't find

A reason for to stay where I wanted to stay

There didn't seem to me to be anyway



I got away from the city from the riverside

And it was oh, such a pity 'cos I really tried

It didn't make me feel how I wanted to feel

I turned around to be where I wanted to be



I got away from the city from the riverside

And it was all nitty gritty there, however I tried

I didn't wait to feel how I knew I would feel

I had to turn around, 'cos I wouldn't be found



Don't blame me or point your finger at me

I'm not blind and I see, don't point your finger at me

Don't you do it, don't you do it to me

Don't point your finger my way

Don't put the blame all my way



She found me so light-hearted by the riverside

She didn't cry or try and I didn't mind

'Cos I just had to stay wher I wanted to stay

And the mistakes I made, I made them anyway



She left me cold and hungry by the riverside

And it was oh, such a pity 'cos I really tried

It didn't make me feel how I wanted to feel

I turned around to be where I wanted to be



Don't blame me or point your finger at me

I'm not blind and I see, don't point your finger at me

Don't you do it, don't you do it to me

Don't point your finger my way

Don't put the blame all my way



She left me cold and hungry by the riverside

And it was oh, such a pity 'cos I really tried

It didn't make me feel how I wanted to feel

I turned around to be where I wanted to be

She left me cold and hungry by the riverside

Riverside, riverside...

THE DEAD KENNEDYS lyrics - Bleed For Me

You've been hanging 'round

With an enemy of the state

Come with me to the building

That no-one stops to watch



[Chorus]

C'mon bleed

C'mon bleed

C'mon bleed

Bleed for me



We'll strap you to a pipe

Electrodes on your balls

C'mon scream

C'mon writhe

Face down in a pool of piss



[Chorus]



In the name of world peace

In the name of world profits

America pumps up our secret police

America wants fuel

To get it, it needs puppets

So what's ten million dead?

If it's keeping out the Russians



We're well trained by the CIA

With Yankee tax money in Ft. Bragg

The Peace Corps builds US labor camps

When they think they're building schools



Ha Ha



When cowboy Ronnie comes to town

Forks out his tongue at human rights

Sit down, enjoy our ethnic meal

Dine on some charbroiled nuns

Try a medal on

Smile at the mirror as the cameras click

and make big business happy -



Anytime

Anywhere

Maybe you'll just disappear



[Chorus]

THE SPINNERS lyrics - One Of A Kind (Love Affair)

(Jefferson)



One of a kind love affair is

The kind of love that you read about in a fairy tale

Like the sun that shines on a rainy day

It's a cloud of love

One of a kind love affair is

When your down is up, when your up is down

But love stays around,

And when you know you're right

But you got to make a little sacrifice

You make it for love

Who-oh-oh-oh, yeah



I never thought about today would come

When she would leave without good-bye, yes, sir

She wrote a line or two upon the wall

Said, I'm leaving you, know I love you too

I can't stay with you

And this very day

I could never say a discouraging word

‘Cause I love you

Who-oh-oh-oh, yes, siree, now



(One of a kind) love affair is

When you hate to say girl I told you so

But you gotta go

There won't be a fight

‘Cause your love is right

But you're leaving wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong



(One of a kind) Ooh (love affair is) ooh yeah

When you treat her nice

But you finally have to pay the price

And though you know you're right

But you got to make a little sacrifice

You make it for love

You make it for love

Yeah-heh-heh-heh



[Instrumental Interlude]



One of a kind love affair is

Makes you want to love her

You just have to hurt her, yeah

One of a kind, one of a kind, love affair is

Makes a lame man walk

Makes a blind man talk about seein' again

(One of a kind)

Ooh-oh (love affair is) My-hy

It makes you me want to be around ya

Ah, girl, I'm glad I found you



(One of a kind) Wooh-ee, baby

(Love affair is) I wanna tell you now

Every day is sunshine, girl, you're on my mind



One of a kind, one of a kind love affair is

Makes me want to, want to be with you

THE CLASH lyrics - Deny

(Strummer/Jones)



Deny

You're such a liar

You won't know the truth if it hits you in the eye

Deny

You're such a liar

You're selling your no-no all the time



An' you said we were going out

To the 100 club

Then you said it ain't my scene

But then you turned up alone

Then you turned up alone



Then you said you'd given it up

Gone an' kicked it in the head

You said you ain't had none for weeks

But baby I seen your arms

Baby I seen your arms



Do you think I'm a raving idiot?

Just got off the boat

Step in line, sign this form - you ain't got a hope

Baby ain't got a hope - you ain't got a hope



What a liar - deny

What a liar

ELTON JOHN lyrics - Did He Shoot Her?

Sling your hook in with him baby

He's a real sharp-shooter now

If he's out there hiding in the tall grass

Tell him I said he was a coward



This ain't any old western honey

It's the twentieth century now

But if he thinks he's some kind of tough cowboy

And he's hurt her then I want to know how



Did he shoot her with his compromise

Like a heart attack he can paralyse

Or did he hang her in a noose

On the telephone line



Did he shoot her with a 45

Did he leave his mark right between her eyes

Oh did he shoot that girl

That used to be mine



Tell him I'm ready any time he chooses

The pay-off for the things, for the things he's done

He ain't messing with no two-bit bandit

Armed with a couple of guns



If he wants to see it as a two reel movie

He's living in the head of someone else

But better take him down and dust him honey

I want to hear the truth for myself



Did he shoot her

Did he shoot her

BOB DYLAN lyrics - Highlands

Well, my heart's in the highlands, gentle and fair

Honey suckle bloomin' in the wildwood air

Bluebells blazin' where the Aberdeen waters flow

Well, my heart's in the highlands, I'm gonna go there when

I feel good enough to go.



Windows were shakin' all night in my dreams

Everything was exactly the way that it seems

Woke up this mornin' and I looked at the same old page

Same old rat race, life in the same old cage.



I don't want nothin' from anyone, ain't that much to take

Wouldn't know the difference between a real blonde and a fake

Feel like a prisoner in a world of mystery

I wish someone would come and push back the clock for me.



Well, my heart's in the highlands, wherever I roam

That's where I'll be when I get called home

The wind it whispers to the buck-eyed trees of rhyme

Well, my heart's in the highlands, I can only get there one step at a time.



I'm listening to Neil Young, I gotta turn up the sound

Someone's always yellin', "Turn him down"

Feel like I'm driftin', driftin' from scene to scene

I'm wondering what in the devil could it all possibly mean.



Insanity is smashin' up against my soul

You could say I was on anything but a roll

If I had a conscience, well I just might blow my top

What would I do with it anyway, maybe take it to the pawn shop.



My heart's in the highlands at the break of dawn

By the beautiful lake of the black swan

Big white clouds like chariots that swing down low

Well, my heart's in the highlands, only place left to go.



I'm in Boston town, in some restaurant

I got no idea what I want

Or maybe I do but, I'm just really not sure

Waitress comes over, nobody in the place but me and her.



Well, it must be a holiday, there's nobody around

She studies me closely as I sit down

She got a pretty face, with long white shiny legs

I said, "Tell me what I want," she say, "You probably want hard boiled eggs."



I say, "That's right, bring me some."

She says, "We ain't got any, you picked the wrong time to come."

Then she says, "I know you're an artist, draw a picture of me."

I said, "I would if I could but I don't do sketches from memory."



Well, she then, she says, "I'm right here in front of you, or

haven't you looked?"

I say, "All right, I know but I don't have my drawing book."

She gives me a napkin, she say, "You can do it on that."

I say, "Yes I could but I don't know where my pencil is at."



She pulls one out from behind her ear

She says, "All right now go ahead, draw me, I'm stayin' right here."

I make a few lines and I show it for her to see

Well, she takes her napkin and throws it back and says, "That

don't look a thing like me."



I said, "Oh, kind Miss, it most certainly does."

She say, "You must be jokin'," I say, "I wish I was."

Then she says, "You don't read women authors do ya?" at least

that's what I think I hear her say

Well, I said, "How would you know and what would it matter anyway?"



Well she says, "You just don't seem like you do." I said,

"You're way wrong."

She says "Which ones have you read then?" I say, "I've read

Erica Jong."

She goes away for a minute and I slide out, out of my chair

I step outside back to the busy street but nobody is goin' anywhere.



Well, my heart's in the highlands with the horses and hounds

Way up in the border country far from the towns

With the twang of the arrow and the snap of the bow

My heart's in the highlands, I can't see any other way to go.



Every day is the same thing, out the door

Feel further away than ever before

Some things in life it just gets too late to learn

Well, I'm lost somewhere, I must have made a few bad turns.



I see people in the park forgettin' their troubles and woes

They're drinkin' and dancin', wearin' bright colored clothes

All the young men, with the young women lookin' so good

Well, I'd trade places with any of 'em in a minute, if I could.



I'm crossing the street to get away from a mangy dog

Talkin' to myself in a monologue

I think what I need might be a full length leather coat

Somebody just asked me if I've registered to vote.



The sun is beginnin' to shine on me

But it's not like the sun that used to be

The party's over and there's less and less to say

I got new eyes, everything looks far away.



Well, my heart's in the highlands at the break of day

Over the hills and far away

There's a way to get there and I'll figure it out somehow

Well, I'm already there in my mind, and that's good enough for now.

BEE GEES lyrics - I Will

Is this your voice I heard

Speaking' my name, I hang on every word

Every letter that I write, every day every night

But I just can't live and learn

Talking to myself and believing

I could live without you

Living on the lies and believing that love would stay

Listen to me please and I'm beggin on my knees before you

But you don't show the way

No you don't show the way

He may change your world and someday he may break your heart

And you deserve no better

If you love him I will step aside

I offer this to you

So leave me as I love you still

And if he don't keep you warm

You know I will, you know I will

So this is who you are

And the rest of my life I dedicate to you

And I know that love can't wait

There's a moon and a sun

And a dream that sees me through

A little bit of change and a little bit of my desire

I was shaken all over and I didn't know what to say

I'm the man in the middle and the middle man catches fire

But I don't know how to go away

No I don't know how to go away

He became your hero somehow

I become your clown

And you deserve no better but my love is here

And all I found I offer this to you

So leave me as I love you still

And if he don't take your heart

You know I will

It ain't wise, it ain't smart

You say there's no doubt about it

If you decide you got somebody else

When I want you to myself

I can't stop, I can't look

I can't say no more about it

But my love will go on

Just as long as the river flows

He will be your king someday

He may let you down

Follow to the letter that my love is real

And what I found I offer it to you

So leave me as I love you still

And if he don't keep you warm

You know I will

EVERYTHING BUT THE GIRL lyrics - Apron Strings

Apron strings

Hanging empty

Crazy things

My body tells me

I want someone to tie to my lonely

Apron strings



Apron strings

Waiting for you

Pretty things

That i could call you

I want someone to tie to my lonely

Apron strings



He'd look just like me when I was young

And I wonder as the days unwind

Will he have your eyes or mine

Then i wake up to my

Apron strings

Cold and lonely

For time brings

Thoughts that only

Will be quiet when someone clings to my

Apron strings



And i'll be perfect in my own way

When you cry i'll be there

I'll sing to you and comb your hair

All your troubles i will share



For apron strings

Can be used for other things

Than what they're meant for

And you'd be happy wrapped in my

Apron strings

JACKSON 5 / THE JACKSONS lyrics - To Know

(The Corporation)



To know of life

(To know of life)

Is to know what I'm living for

Touch my hand

And, baby, I'm yours



To know of love

(To know of love)

Is to know that I live for you

To be in love

Is to be there with you



(Everyday)

Everyday means so much to me

But it all depends on you

Don't you know, oh, baby

We were meant to be

Oh, and life for me

Begins and ends with you



To know you're mine

(To know you're mine)

Is to know how it used to be

Yesterday is all I can see

That's how I know

Life can be beautiful

But it all depends on you

Now that you're gone, baby



(Since you've been gone)

Just not the same, baby

Since you've been gone

Just not the same, baby



To know of us

Is what I'm still living for

But it all depends on you

Baby, it all depends on you

(Baby, come home)

To know happiness

Is to know you're here in my arms

(Baby, come home)

Let me know, let me know, let me know

What it is to live again

(Baby, come home)

(Baby, come home)

THE ANIMALS lyrics - I Don't Care No More

(Williamson)



When we first met, I know what it was

A stranger told me not to, trust your love

I was so carried away, I payed no mind

But I thank God, I saw the light in time

Little girl now, I don't care no more

I don't care what you do, I don't care no more



You had your way from time the time

Women, you spoke your piece, now I'm going to speek mine

The words you would send, they were not true

I picked up a loosing battle like all fouls do

But now, I don't care no more

I don't care what you do, I don't care no more



I finally found out just what it was

The women wanted convenience, but I want love

Ain't but one drink that I did wrong

Take the bottle of life and not my own

But now, I don't care no more

I don't care what you do, I don't care no more

CAMEL lyrics - Air Born

(Latimer/Bardens)



High flying diver, spread your wings

Flying high on a cloud

Born on the air, spiral around

So easy making circles

You never touch the ground



You see the sea, feel the sky

Don't know where you're going

You don't, you don't know the answers

To what's in my mind

Riding on the wind and turning with the tide



Light takes you up, it brings you down

Change is the things that to me

Is chained to the frost, the wind and the rain

And everyone keeps staring up

You'll be back again

NEIL YOUNG lyrics - Big Parade

I don't wanna get personal

Why have you put me on the spot?

I don't know how you feel

But for me it's getting hard

Swimming in the deep blue sea

Marching in the big parade



All I need is a little shade

Standing in the light of love

Standing in the light of love



Doesn't matter who you are

Or who you're not

All it takes is a little love

To make a handout worth a lot

Swimming in the deep blue sea

Marching in the big parade



All I need is a little shade

Standing in the light of your love

Standing in the light of love



Drowning in the deep blue sea

Drudging in the long parade



All I need is a little shade

Standing in the light of your love

Standing in the light of love



Standing in the light of love

Standing in the light of love

HUEY LEWIS AND THE NEWS lyrics - If You Really Love Me You'll Let Me

I'm no fool and I won't be cheated and lied to

I know you think that I'm so cruel



But what about me, what am I supposed to do

Just stay home, stay home and watch TV



[Chorus:]

If you really love me you let me

You always try to upset me

If you really love me you let me

If you love me you'll let me go



I can see that you don't really believe me

You think you should be able to do what you wanna do

Well why should I let you make an idiot of me

Anyway is that all you can do is say



[Chorus]

IRVING BERLIN lyrics - I Left My Door Open And My Daddy Walked Out

[1st verse:]

What'll I do? What'll I do?

I'm just as sad as can be

Something awful happened to me

What'll I do? What'll I do?

I'm in a terrible plight

Like a great big fool I did

A very silly thing last night



[Refrain:]

I left my door open and my daddy walked out

Without a doubt

Worried am I

Wondering why

He never stopped to say "goodbye"

I can't live without my lovin' daddy about

That's why I shout

He must come back or I'll lose my mind

A good man's mighty hard to find

He must have some lovin' now and then

Maybe that will bring him back again

I'm gonna keep my door wide open

Till my daddy comes back



[2nd verse:]

What'll I do? What'll I do?

I'm in a terrible rage

Like a bird, he flew from his cage

Daddy of mine, send me a line

Say that you'll come back to me

When you do I'll lock the door

And try my best to lose the key

VINCE GILL lyrics - Cold Gray Light Of Gone

I woke up this morning long before the dawn

I stumbled to the kitchen and put some coffee on

The hose was deathly quiet, I knew something was wrong

Then suddenly it dawned on me

The cold gray light of gone



[Chorus:]

No there's nothin' quite as lonely

As the cold gray light of gone

Waking up and finding out she's never coming home

The note that said it's over

Lord it chills me to the bone

No there's nothin' quite as lonely

As the cold gray light of gone



I cried and cried for hours and I tried to clear my head

I even went and laid back down on her side of the bed

Her perfume lingered on the sheets

Our love once laid upon

Her memory's destroying me

In the cold gray light of gone



[Chorus 2x]



No there's nothin' quite as lonely

As the cold gray light of gone

FREE lyrics - Songs Of Yesterday

(Fraser / Rodgers)



Sing me a sad song

And I'll be right on my way

A sad song like the songs of yesterday

Well my father used to sing the blues

Sometimes it was good

But my mother never saw the use

And she chased him for his blood

A sad song like the songs of yesterday

A sad song

And I'll be right on my way



Oh you know my father

Always used to say

A bad workman blames his tools

But it seems to me

A man who uses the tools

Is just a fool



Sad song

And I'll be right on my way



Sad song

Like the songs of yesterday



Well now the streets are filled with silent cars

And all the world's a stage

But I must get to work today

Today I get my wage



Sad song

Then I'll get on

On my way

Just like a song of yesterday

Listen to what I'm gonna say
