MADONNA lyrics - Mother And Father

There was a time I was happy in my life

There was a time I believed I'd live forever

There was a time I prayed to Jesus Christ

There was a time I had a mother

It was nice



Nobody else would ever take the place of you

Nobody else could do the things that you could do

No one else I guess could hurt me like you did

I didn't understand, I was just a kid



[Bridge:]



Oh mother, why aren't you here with me

No one else saw the things that you could see

I'm trying hard to dry my tears

Yes father, you know I'm not so free



[Chorus:]



I've got to give it up

Find someone to love me

I've got to let it go

Find someone that I can care for

I've got to give it up

Find someone to love me

I've got to let it go

Find someone that I can care for



There was a time I was happy in my life

There was a time I believed I'd live forever

There was a time I prayed to Jesus Christ

There was a time I had a mother

It was nice



[bridge]

[chorus]



My mother died when I was five

And all I did was sit and cry

I cried and cried and cried all day

Until the neighbors went away



They couldn't take my loneliness

I couldn't take their phoniness

My father had to go to work

I used to think he was a jerk



I didn't know his heart was broken

And not another word was spoken

He became a shadow of

The father I was dreaming of



I made a vow that I would never need

Another person ever

Turned my heart into a cage

A victim of a kind of rage



I gotta give it up

[repeat twice]



[chorus]



Find someone that I can care for

Find someone that I can care for



I've got to give it up

[repeat five times]



I've got to let it go

I've got to give it up

Oh mother, oh father

I've got to give it up



I gotta give it up

[repeat six times]

GARY MOORE lyrics - Thunder Rising

They looked out from the

Fortress on the hill

There came a single warrior

Returning from the kill

The spoils of war hung

From his horses mane

The bloody heads of enemies

That he had freshly slayed



They saw the face

The eyes so sullen

Could only be the

Young CЗ Chullain



Thunder rising

Thunder rising

Thunder rising

Early in the morning

Cities burning

The world keeps turning

Thunder rising

Early in the morning



The son of Lugh MacEithleen knew no fear

For just one blow at any foe

To tell his end was near

So many tried to mock this Celtic son

They taunted and they teased him till

He slayed them one by one



And so they came

And so they've fallen

at the hands of

Young C Chullain



Thunder rising

Thunder rising

Thunder rising

Early in the morning

Cities burning

The world keeps turning

Thunder rising

Early in the morning



Long ago the legend has it

How the mighty Ulster men

Battled with the King Of Connacht

Fighting to the bitter end

No one knew what foolish reason

Caused this skirmish to begin

Was it treachery or treason

Or just the idle threats of drunken men?



Thunder rising

Thunder rising

Thunder rising

Early in the morning

Cities burning

The world keeps turning

Thunder rising

Early in the morning



Thunder rising

Thunder rising

Thunder rising

Early in the morning

Young men are dying

The widows are crying

Thunder rising

Early in the morning

ERASURE lyrics - Tenderest Moments

(Clarke / Bell)



We go down to a foreign land

Dive through the clouds

You hold the guided light in your hands



This must be all that there is

Times don't come much more beautiful



You can show me places that my eyes have never seen

I'm following you, where are you taking me to?

You could be my angel who just walks out of a dream

I'm following you, where are you taking me to?

I have all faith in you

And these tenderest moments



We circle low

Embrace the night as she draws us in

A holy shroud, a veil to hide our tenderest moments



This must be all that there is

Times don't come much more beautiful



You can show me places that my eyes have never seen

I'm following you, where are you taking me to?

You could be my angel who just walks out of a dream

I'm following you, where are you taking me to?

I have all faith in you

And these tenderest moments

GILBERT O'SULLIVAN lyrics - Not In A Million Years

Every other morning

I lie in bed awake

And wonder why the dawning

Always has to break

Could it be it must

As we all expect it to

Could it be I just

Simply haven't got a clue

And what if it stayed behind

Had itself a change of mind

What would your impression be

How would you react

Would you simply smile and say

Don't be silly go away

Anyone can plainly see

It couldn't happen here

Not in a million years

So you think you're clever

Well, if you really are

Would you kindly tell me

How big is a star

And what does it contain

Is it metal or wood

How much does it cost

Is it really any good

And what if they all came down

Everyone upon the ground

What would your impression be

How would you react

Would you simply smile and say

Don't be silly go away

Anyone can plainly see

It couldn't happen here

Not in a million years

Everyone knows one and one is two

And all take for granted that it's true

Everybody know that the world is round

Although it doesn't look it from the ground

Everybody knows it's right

But what if one and one were five

And the world not really round

Everywhere was just a huge flat piece of ground

Look at all the animals

Living in zoos

Elephants and tigers

Lions and kangaroos

Don't they all look cute

When they're hid behind a cage

Funny when they laugh

Exciting when then rage

But what if they took control

There and then reversed the role

What would your impression be

How would you react

Would you simply smile and say

Don't be silly go away

Anyone can plainly see

It couldn't happen here

It couldn't happen here

Not in a million years

DARYL HALL AND JOHN OATES lyrics - I'm Watching You (A Mutant Romance)

Well it's ten o'clock

Jewel Jewel, and it's time to see you

Scan around the block

Oh, you Jewel in the monitor screen

I can usually find you near 42nd and 8th

A whore in a doorway (yeah)

I think I've found you Jewel, wit my T. V. beam

You know it's funny, the light in the night,

Does something to your face

And the way you look, reminds me of a girl I used to want

In Junior High

The smile on your lips, and the shape of your hips,

Excites me, and it makes me want to touch you

You're a whore for sure, but that's O. K.

Because I'm nothing, just another dirty spy with a T. V. eye

I can't stand it when you find a man, I wonder what he's sayin'

Does he tell you about his wife and kids at home?

Is he like me?

The one whose watching you in the night, in the night

Watching you in the night, in the night, in the night

Well you're back on the street, and I can love you

As a man can love a woman

And you know I'm here, but you think of me as a steel

Machine

But, I'm watching you, all night

And, I'm watching you, all night long

I'm watching you, all night

I'm watching you, all night long

I'm watching you, all night...

LOBO lyrics - Life Doesn't Get Any Sweeter Than This

(Kent LaVoie)



When days come along and

Everything goes wrong

I lie awake at night and think

About things in my life

If I hadn't said some of the

Things that I said

If you hadn't done some of the

Things that you've done

Could it have been better than

It is now

When you move in your sleep

And pull on the sheet

And mover up next to me baby,

That's all that I need to know



Life doesn't get any sweeter

Than this

Love is the word at the top of

Our list

We can climb every mountain

And wish every wish

But baby life doesn't get any

Sweeter than this



What do you have if you have

It alone

What good is a house if it's not

A home

How can you share when

There's nobody there

How can you care when

There's no one to care about

You

RICHARD THOMPSON lyrics - Jerusalem On The Jukebox

(Richard Thompson)



Jerusalem on the jukebox they talk in tongues on Coronation Street

Heaven help the pharisee whose halo has slipped down to his feet

A thousand satellite comedians have died for your sins

Jerusalem on the jukebox, little angels beat you wings



At poolside picnics they chant for Ferraris and furs

Their muscle tone sharpens but their hold on reality blurs

You can have your cake and eat it and never have to puke up a thing

Jerusalem on the jukebox, little angels beat you wings



In the bathroom mirror they try the Joan of Arc look again

Two parts Ingrid Bergman to one part Shirley MacLaine

And the wounds of time kill you but the surgeon's knife only stings

Jerusalem on the jukebox, little angels beat you wings



In video suburbia the blue light flickers and flames

Ecstacy and holy blackmail are the favourite games

And God has the sharpest suits and the cleanest chin

Jerusalem on the jukebox, little angels beat you wings



Ah the bride checks her hair and makeup, and here comes the groom

What one-eyed monster comes slouching into your front room

Rudolph Valentino or the curse of all two-legged things

Jerusalem on the jukebox, little angels beat you wings

Little angels beat your wings

PETE SEEGER lyrics - In Dead Earnest

If I should die before I wake,

All my bone and sinew take

Put me in the compost pile

To decompose me for a while.



Worms, water, sun will have their way,

Returning me to common clay

All that I am will feed the trees

And little fishes in the seas.



When radishes and corn you munch,

You may be having me for lunch

And then excrete me with a grin,

Chortling, "There goes Lee again."



'Twill be my happiest destiny

To die and live eternally.

THE MCAULEY SCHENKER GROUP lyrics - Bad Boys

(M, Schenker/R. McAuley)



Never Enough, never enough, It's too little for me

Cry wolf, cry cry wolf, The black sheep of the family

Give an inch, give an inch, Always taking a mile

Lie down with the push and shove Yeah I can make you smile



Bad boys Never seem to care about anything

Bad boys You don't wanna mess around

Bad boys Playin' with the girls havin' lots of fun

Bad boys We really don't care



It's really tough, really tough When you ain't got no money

Livin' rough is heavy stuff Where ya gonna get your milk and honey

I wanna be in the movies See myself on the silver screen

Romeo playin' all those parts In positions you ain't never seen



Bad boys Never seem to care about anything

Bad boys You don't wanna mess around

Bad boys Playin' with the girls havin' lots of fun

Bad boys We really don't care



The kinda things we like to do

You don't wanna know if it's good for you

We're so bad through and through

The same could happen It's gonna happen to you

New York, New York city My kinda town

But L. A. on a sunny day, wow! When you've got the roof down

There's blonde hair everywhere They sure have got the style

The bad boys taken everythin' Drivin' everybody wild



Bad boys Never seem to care about anything

Bad boys You don't wanna mess around

Bad boys Playin' with the girls havin' lots of fun

Bad boys We really don't care

HAWKWIND lyrics - Motorway City

(Brock)



Turning star projections

Voices from the deep

The throbbing of the engines

You exit from the heat

Paper on the pavement

Cars crawling in the road

Emotions of the city

You ease your heavy load



Motorway City, well it ain't the same

Lighting up the night sky with an orange flame

Motorway City, you exit on the right

Cruising on the highway driving thru the night

Motorway City, well it ain't the same

Lighting up the night sky with an orange flame

THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS lyrics - Bread Hair

I'm a wigged-out daddy with bread on top

I dig an easy-bake granny with a whiskey mop

If you love me, you needn't the whole wheat crop

'Cause they had a useless battle and'll never stop



Bread hair, oh boy, oh boy

Bread hair, oh boy, oh boy

Bread hair, oh boy, oh boy

You're drivin' all my hope away



I'm a pumpernickel-do for you, dough you do

Use a yarmulka of hallah bread if you're a Jew

I belong to cayope, I be the wheat for you

Yeast and flour, bake an hour, it's annoying shampoo



Bread hair, oh boy, oh boy

Bread hair, oh boy, oh boy

Bread hair, oh boy, oh boy

Drivin' all my hope away



Bread hair, oh boy, oh boy

Bread hair, oh boy, oh boy

Bread hair, oh boy, oh boy

You're drivin' all my hope away



That's a gone rug, buddy

JAMES TAYLOR lyrics - Nothing Like A Hundred Miles

I have tried to forget about you and all the plans that we had planned.

Yes, and I'm bound to leave this town, I don't care where I may land.



If what they're telling me is true, you have found somebody new to love you.

There ain't but one thing I can do, baby,

to save my heart from being broken in two by you, baby, I'm moving through.



There's nothing like a hundred miles between me and trouble in my mind.

There's nothing like a hundred miles, show me the yellow line.

There's nothing like a hundred miles when I'm only passing through.

There's nothing like a hundred miles to make me forget about you, forget about you.



Now don't we like our found farewells.

And don't we like to keep our good-byes nice and clean.

You may wish I'd go to hell while you tell me what a pleasure it's been,

so long, baby, I'm moving on.



There's nothing like a hundred miles between me and trouble in mind.

There's nothing like a hundred miles, show me the yellow line.

There's nothing like a hundred miles when I'm only passing through.

There's nothing like a hundred miles to make me forget about you, forget about you.



I have tried to forget about you. And baby, I have failed.

But just as long as I stay in Houston, I will.

FAITH NO MORE lyrics - Take This Bottle

I can wait to love in heaven

I can wait for you

Far away, I'll treat you better

Better than down here



Cuz I've done wrong

And I'm a little afraid

And I ain't to strong

And this ain't easy to say:



Take this bottle

Take this bottle

And just walk away - the both of you

And let me feel the pain - I've done to you



I can hope we'll be together

With a better roof over our heads

I can hope the stormy weather

It passes on - it passes on



But I've hoped too long

Hoped for me to change

And that hope is gone

So listen to what I say:



Take this bottle

LEO SAYER lyrics - Dancing The Night Away

(Russell Smith/James Brown)



Standing beside of the ocean

Looking out across the water

Everything is beautiful

But I still don't feel like I oughta

Things we wanted, not so long ago

I got 'em all now, babe

But I ain't got you no more

Still I remember

The way you held me

And all the sweet things you used to say

When we were two young lovers

Dancing the night away

I remember everything

Dresses you used to wear

You were so light and graceful

You seem to float right through the air

And me I looked so funny dancing

But you loved me anyhow

Now I wish I could find somebody

To love me like that now

But I remember

The way you held me

And all the sweet things you used to say

When we were two young lovers

Dancing the night away



[Solo]



Standing beside of the ocean

Looking out across the bay

I should look for companionship

But it just gets in my way

Yeah, all the lights are flickering

Out along the shore

Well, I see people dancing there

But I just don't dance no more

Still I remember

They way you held me

And all the sweet things you used to say

When were two young lovers

Dancing the night away

Let me see you dance

Let me see you dance

Oh, baby, let me see you dance

I can still see you dance

I remember you dancing

Oh, baby, let me see you dance

C'mon, let me see you dance

THE LEFT BANK lyrics - Walk Away Renee

(Brown-Calilli-Sansone)



And when I see the sign that points one way

The lot we used to pass by every day



Just walk away Renee

You won't see me follow you back home

The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same

You're not to blame



From deep inside the tears that I'm forced to cry

From deep inside the pain that I chose to hide



Just walk away Renee

You won't see me follow you back home

Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes

For me it cries



[Flute]



Just walk away Renee

You won't see me follow you back home

Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes

For me it cries



Your name and mine inside a heart upon a wall

Still finds a way to haunt me, though they're so small



Just walk away Renee

You won't see me follow you back home

The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same

You're not to blame

BUDDY & JULIE MILLER lyrics - You're Running Wild

(R. Edenton and D. Winters)



You're running wild how long can this go on

You're leaving me alone

And running wild

You're always gone my love you'll never share

It's more than I can bear stop runnng wild



You'll settle down one day

And find I've gone away

You'll think of what you've done while running wild

I can't go on you'll have to choose the way

You'll have to go or stay stop running wild

SIMPLY RED lyrics - Man Made The Gun

Man made the gun a sado-sexual machine

It's slaughter brings you to your knees



Man made the gun

Who is the person that is holding on?

What's in his mind, where is he looking from?

Isn't he the one we should be gazing on, contemplating on?



'Cos man made the gun

Man shapes the son



Man made the gun

While there is evil in this world

We try to save our boys and girls

Man made the bomb

That doesn't mean that we should turn them on

Or ever yearn him on



'Cos man made the gun

Man shapes the son



Man made it, man made it

THE DOORS lyrics - You're Lost Little Girl

You're lost little girl

You're lost little girl

You're lost

Tell me who

Are you?



I think that you know what to do

Impossible? Yes, but it's true

I think that you know what to do, yeah

I'm sure that you know what to do



You're lost little girl

You're lost little girl

You're lost

Tell me who

Are you?



I think that you know what to do

Impossible? Yes, but it's true

I think that you know what to do, girl

I'm sure that you know what to do



You're lost little girl

You're lost little girl

You're lost

THE KINGSTON TRIO lyrics - I'm Going Home

(Fred Geis)



Well, no matter where I wandered I know I'll always find a welcome at the end of every journey.

There'll be friendly people waitin'.



[Chorus:]

California would not hold me 'though I loved her timber mountains.

Worked her fields and worked her orchards up and down her central valley.



I have driven open highway through the golden Utah valley

And I watched the rivers gently gliding. I wave my hand to friendly people.



[Chorus]



Folks who know me call me a drifter. They don't know I'll stop my ramblin'.

They don't know that someday, somewhere, somebody's gonna make me settle down.



I'm going home, Lord, I'm going home. (Repeat and then chorus twice)



I'm going home!

L. A. GUNS lyrics - Pissed

I said go away

I don't want to play today



I kicked my dog today

Didn't like him anyway

I killed my mom today

There is nothing left to say



Except for this, I'm pissed



I went to jail today

Hope that big fat slob ain't gay

I killed them all today

There is nothing left to say



Except for this, I'm pissed



And I know that you're feeling it too

Something about the way that you look

I can see it in your eyes, false hopes fed by lies

You're not alone my friend, you'll see it in the end

And I'll be waiting for you



I took a ride today

The threw the switch, I went away

Eyes are fried just like eggs

Lost control between my legs

Doesn't matter anyway

There is nothing left to say



Except for this, I'm pissed

EVERYTHING BUT THE GIRL lyrics - Letting Love Go

Of course I feel betrayed,

But that's the way it goes, everyone knows.

Trying to make you love me again,

Crying at your door ust to hold you once more.

Darling I know it's so hard to let a love go,

It's not easy letting love go,

It's so hard to let a love go.

Darling don't I know, it is never easy letting go

When it's gone on and on and on and on.



Your friends said you looked well,

You promised that you'd write and call them at night.

But if you wake up in another town

And it's loneliness you've found just cause I'm not around,

Then darling you'll know it's so hard to let a love go,

It's not easy letting love go,

It's so hard to let a love go.

Darling don't I know it is never easy letting go

When it's gone on and on and on and on.



But I'm not gonna pretend -

I find it hard to forgive and find a new way to live.

And if I had my time again, I'd still have you back,

It's as simple as that.

Darling I know it's so hard to let a love go,

It's not easy letting love go,

It's so hard to let a love go.

Darling don't I know it is never easy letting go

When it's gone on and on and on and on.

BONEY M lyrics - Rivers Of Babylon (Club Mix)

By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down

ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion.



By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down

ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion.



When the wicked

Carried us away in captivity

Required from us a song

Now how shall we sing the lord's song in a strange land



When the wicked

Carried us away in captivity

Requiering of us a song

Now how shall we sing the lord's song in a strange land



Let the words of our mouth and the meditations of our heart

be acceptable in thy sight here tonight



Let the words of our mouth and the meditation of our hearts

be acceptable in thy sight here tonight



By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down

ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion.



By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down

ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion.



By the rivers of Babylon (dark tears of Babylon)

when we remember Zion. (Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)



By the rivers of Babylon (Rough bits of Babylon)

there we sat down (You hear the people cry)

ye-eah we wept, (They need their God)

when we remember Zion. (Ooh, have the power)

LINDA RONSTADT lyrics - I Fall In Love Too Easily

(Jule Styne, Sammy Cahn)



I fall in love too easily

I fall in love too fast

I fall in love too terribly hard

For love to ever last

My heart should be well-schooled

'Cause I been fooled in the past

But still I fall in love too easily

I fall in love too fast



I fall in love too easily

I fall in love too fast

I fall in love too terribly hard

For love to ever last

My heart should be well-schooled

'Cause I been fooled in the past

But still I fall in love too easily

I fall in love too fast

BARBRA STREISAND lyrics - My Pa

(M. Leonard & H. Martin)



My Pa can light my room at night

By just his being near

And make a fear for dream all right

By grinning ear to ear

My Pa can do most anything

He sets his mind to do

He'd even move a mountain

If he really wanted to

My Pa can sweeten up a day

That clouds and rain make gray

And tell me funny stories

That will chase the clouds away

My Pa's the only one on Earth

I can tell my troubles to

His arms are house and home to me

His face's a pretty poem to me

My Pa's the finest friend I ever knew

I only wish that you

Could know him too...

ALICE COOPER lyrics - Snakebite

(Alice Cooper/Jack Ponti/Vic Pepe/Bob Pfeifer/Lance Bulen/Kelly Keeling)



Somebody better shake you

Somebody better turn your head around

I'm scratching like a wild cat

I'm spitting fire on the ground



You got my venom running thru ya

Ain't gonna let you run off wild



[Chorus:]

I'm Snakebite

I'm your only man

Snakebite is your lover

You'll never hide, baby understand

Snakebite drags you under

I'm Snakebite

They call me Snakebite



Nobody gonna take you

Nobody gonna touch your rebel skin

I'll break 'em like a matchstick

Cuz baby that's the kind of mood I'm in



My face is tattooed on your shoulder

Your name is scratched into my bike, yeah



[Chorus]



You got my venom runnin' thru ya

If you're gonna run

Go running scared, I'm right behind ya



[Chorus]

THREE DOG NIGHT lyrics - Ridin' Thumb

(J. Seals)



See the man on the black top highway

Moving to no man's land

All alone on the black top highway

Moving just as fast as he can

Ridin' thumb, ridin' thumb



Left his home down in Macon, Georgia

Left the shade of an old oak tree, tree

Got his dreams in his left front pocket

Got his eyes squinted towards the sea

Ridin' thumb, ridin' thumb



He don't care where the wind blows

Just as long as he gets his ride

And he don't care for food and water

Just lets his conscience be his guide,

Ridin' thumb



Left his sisters and mama crying

Beggin him not to leave that day

Said he'd write but they knew he was lying

Got no razor, got no blade

Ridin' thumb, ridin' thumb

FLEETWOOD MAC lyrics - Revelation

(Bob Welch)



He had all the rivers, under his power

He had all the mountains, under his command

You know that he had all the cities, in his own two hands

Yes and he had control of the four winds

And of the hunger of starving man

And now we're passing on the reins

Cause in my heart I can feel the change

You know the lord of light is laughing

Cause things don't stay the same,

Revelation, revelation

He controlled the brimstone, and eternal fire

Surrounds himself with downers, in the king of cold

You know that he had all the princes kissing his diamond ring

And I heard that he walled up, the door to summer

And cut the heart out of mister spring

And now we're passing on the reins

And in your heart you can feel a change

You know the lord of light is laughing

Cause things don't stay the same,

Revelation, revelation

Dream on, keep your eyes wide open...

On a Sunday morning, with a voice that's cold

The future gives a warning of the fire that burns below

He puts his hands together, cause his faith is strong

And that's what you've been needing

Oh but it don't seem to last too long

Cause now we're passing on the reins

And in your heart you can feel a change

You know the lord of light is laughing

Cause things don't stay the same,

Revelation, revelation

PAUL ANKA lyrics - One Man Woman, One Woman Man

You caught me fooling around with somebody new

You caught me fooling around now I'm losing you

'Cause you're a one man woman

You're a one man woman

You're a one man woman

But I'm a two timing man



The nights you left me alone

And you disappeared

The nights your voice on the phone

Said I'm waiting here



'Cause I'm a one man woman

Yes, you're a one man woman

'Cause I'm a one man woman

But I'm a two timing man



Oh Baby you know I'm sorry

Oh sure, it's the same old story

I keep coming back

And I let you

'Cause I'd rather forgive than forget you



Now I won't need no chains to tie me down

You lost you're way my love

But now you've found

That I'm a one man woman

Yes, you're a one man woman

Oh, I'm a one man woman

But I'm a two timing man



I'm a one man woman

I'll be your one woman man

You're a one man woman

I'm a one woman man

Yes, you're a one man woman

You're a one woman man...

FRANK ZAPPA lyrics - I Ain't Got No Heart

Ain't got no heart

I ain't got no heart to give away

I sit and laugh at fools in love

There ain't no such thing as love

No angels singing up above today

Girl I don't believe

Girl I don't believe in what you say

You say your heart is only mine

I say to you, you must be blind

What makes you think that you're so fine

That I would throw away

The groovy life 1 lead

'Cause baby, what you've got, yeah

It sure ain't what I need

Girl you'd better go

Girl you'd better go away

I think that life with you would1 be

Just not quite the thing for me

-Why hritsotau ю see my-way-

Why should I be stuck with you

It's just not what I want to do

Why should an embrace or two

Make me such a part of you

I ain't got no heart to give away

Away

No no no no no no no

Ain't got no heart

Ain't got no heart

I ain't got no heart to give away

METALLICA lyrics - The Unforgiven III

(James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Kirk Hammett, Robert Trujillo)



How could he know this new dawn's light

Would change his life forever?

Set sail to sea but pulled off course

By the light of golden treasure



Was he the one causing pain

With his careless dreaming?

Been afraid, always afraid

Of the things he's feeling

He could just be gone

He would just sail on

He would just sail on



How can I be lost?

If I've got nowhere to go?

Searched for seas of gold

How come it's got so cold?

How can I be lost?

In remembrance I relive

And how can I blame you

When it's me I can't forgive?



These days drift on inside a fog

It's thick and suffocating

This seeking life outside its hell

Inside intoxicating

He's run aground like his life

Water's much too shallow

Slipping fast down with the ship

Fading in the shadows now



A castaway

Blame all gone away

Blame gone away



How can I be lost

If I've got nowhere to go?

Searched for seas of gold

How come it's got so cold?

How can I be lost?

In remembrance I relive

And how can I blame you

When it's me I can't forgive?



Forgive me, forgive me not

Forgive me, forgive me not

Forgive me, forgive me not

Forgive me, forgive me

Why can't I forgive me?



Set sail to sea but pulled off course

By the light of golden treasure

How could he know this new dawn's light

Would change his life forever



How can I be lost

If I've got nowhere to go?

Searched for seas of gold

How come it's got so cold?

How can I be lost?

In remembrance I relive

So how can I blame you

When it's me I can't forgive?

VAN MORRISON lyrics - Ancient Of Days

Saw you shining in the sun this morning

Ancient of days, ancient of days, ancient of day a a a ays

BRIAN ENO lyrics - Third Uncle

There are tins,

There was pork

There are legs,

There are sharks

There was John,

There are cliffs,

There was Mother,

There's a poker

There was you,

Then there was you



There are scenes,

There are blues

There are boots,

There are shoes

There are Turks,

There are fools

There are Rockers,

They're in schools

There was you,

Then there was you



Burn my fingers,

Burn my toes

Burn my uncle,

Burn his books

Burn his shoes,

Cook the leather,

Put it on me.

Does it fit me

Or you?

It looks tight on you.

RAY DAVIES lyrics - Hymn For A New Age

I don't believe that God is a man with white hair

Sitting in a big chair

Judging the world and its morals

Forgiving today so we can sin again tomorrow



But I believe I need something to look up to

I believe I wanna pray but don't know what to



I'm not a born again preacher

My soul's too far gone to be saved

The world is wild and at this stage

We need a hymn for a new age



Ooh have you heard the news

Bible bashers where are the queues

A saint played a gig but he got crap reviews

The punters didn't like the product or the venue



I need something to connect to

Someone to help me through

Something I can pray to



This is my hymn for a new age

Rewrite the book on a fresh page

If I'm to find God and be saved

I need a hymn for a new age



(We need a hymn for a new age)



The invader's arrived now here comes the war

Satan keeps knocking at my door

Time has come for a new crusade

Cast out the evil before they blow the world away



We need a hymn

I believe

I need something to look up to

I believe I wanna pray but don't know what to.



We need a hymn for a new age

Rewrite the book on a fresh page

If I'm to find God and be saved

I need a hymn for a new age



We need a hymn for a new age



Each man build your own cross

For every soul that's ever been lost

Life is cheap people take it at no cost

We need a hymn for a new age

SARAH MCLACHLAN lyrics - Silent Night

Silent night, holy night

All is calm, all is bright

Round yon Virgin Mother and Child

Holy Infant so tender and mild

Sleep in heavenly peace

Sleep in heavenly peace



Silent night, holy night!

Shepherds quake at the sight

Glories stream from heaven afar

Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!

Christ, the Saviour is born

Christ, the Saviour is born



Silent night, holy night

Son of God, love's pure light

Radiant beams from Thy holy face

With the dawn of redeeming grace

Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth

Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth

PORTER WAGONER AND DOLLY PARTON lyrics - I'm Wasting Your Time (And You're Wasting Mine)

(Dolly Parton)



There's nothing left to tie us to each other anymore

The love we knew is gone and that's a fact we can't ignore

There's nothing left to loose ends on all the ties that bind

I'm wasting your time and you're wasting mine

There's no use in wasting the good years that we have left

When we might find happiness with somebody else

There's no chance for us we can see it we're not blind

I'm wasting your time and you're wasting mine



The blame belongs to both of us I guess we didn't try

Love is like a garden that wilts if it's left to die

The flower of love can't bloom if the sun don't ever shine

I'm wasting your time and you're wasting mine

Though it hurts we know we must leave it all behind

I'm wasting your time and you're wasting mine

You're wasting mine you're wasting mine

BRYAN ADAMS lyrics - Inside Out

the biggest lie you ever told - your deepest fear 'bout

growin' old

the longest night you ever spent - the angriest letter you

never sent

the boy you swore you'd never leave - the one you kissed on

new years's eve

the sweetest dream you had last night -- your darkest hour,

your hardest fight



i wanna know you - like i know myself

i'm waitin' for you - there ain't no one else

talk to me baby - scream and shout

i want to know you - inside out

i wanna dig down deep - i wanna lose some sleep

i wanna scream and shout - i wanna know you inside out

i wanna take my time - i wanna know your mind

ya know there ain't no doubt - i wanna know you inside out



the saddest song you ever heard - the most you said with

just one word

the loneliest prayer you ever prayed - the truest vow you

ever made

what makes you laught, what makes you cry

what makes you mad, what gets you by

you highest hight, your lowest low - these things I want to

know



i wanna know you - like i know myself

i'm waitin' for you - there ain't no one else

talk to me baby - scream and shout

i want to know you - inside out

i wanna dig down deep - i wanna lose some sleep

i wanna scream and shout - i wanna know you inside out

i wanna take my time - i wanna know your mind

ya know there ain't no doubt - i wanna know oyu inside out

i wanna know your sould - i wanna lose control

c'mon n' let it out - i wanna know you inside out

ya gotta dig down deep - i wanna lose some slieep

i wanna scream and shout - i wanna know oyu inside out

tell me everything...

BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST lyrics - Float

Sometimes I think of them now

Those honey-scented days

When sun's bright rays shone on my face

Then summer blazed through the trees

And softened by the shade

It filled that sylvan place

Float

Go with the flow

Not high not low

Before you go

Float

And live in hope

When judgement comes

It comes to save us all



Now all that's left is a sound

A hollow echoing

No faith no heart in what I make

And those bright things I once saw

Are shadowy

Dead leaves

Like dreams

Drift on the lake



Float

Go with the flow

Not high not low

Before you go

Float

And live in hope

When judgement comes

It comes to save us all

SINEAD O'CONNOR lyrics - Exit Through You

Exitin' the shower

I forgot to wash my heart

Now the dust has turned to mud

Since we've been apart

This angel whispered in my ear

As I brushed my teeth

She said "Muddy hearts work twice as hard

And still can barely beat"

I know it's true

I exit through you



You always did understand

That time ticks away

Everything you ever give

To cure you of delay

We've both been here so very long

Now we just pretend

To be head over heels in love

Like we've been saved again

It's true

I exit through you

Exit through you



What use is it to wash that stuff away?

In every place that we have run to

All that we've begun with was here to stay



(Exitin' the shower

I forgot to wash my heart

Now the dust has turned to mud

Since we've been apart

This angel whispered in my ear

As I brushed my teeth

She said "Muddy hearts work twice as hard)

And still can barely beat"



Your eyes like brandin' irons

Make impressions on my skin

I burn so very easy

When I'm proud of who I am

It feels like rigor mortis

But it tastes like bubblegum

All these words you need to say

They're on the tip of your tongue

It's true

I exit through you

Exit through you



What use is it to wash that stuff away?

In every place that we have run to

All that we've begun with was (t)here to stay



When my days have been clocked

And all the gates have been locked

When the way is all blocked

I exit through you

There's only one way out



(Exitin' the shower

I forgot to wash my heart

Now the dust has turned to mud

Since we've been apart

This angel whispered in my ear

As I brushed my teeth

She said "Muddy hearts work twice as hard)

And still can barely beat"



There's only one way out

Only one way out



(Exitin' the shower

I forgot to wash my heart

Now the dust is turned to mud

Since we've been apart

This angel whispered in my ear

As I brushed my teeth

She said "Muddy hearts work twice as hard)

And still can barely beat"



Only one way

I exit through you



(Exit through you)



One way out

THE CHURCH lyrics - Lizard

[From the Louisiana CD Single]



Lizard, lizard



Still want near darkness, black summer

Evil drifting beyond

Somewhere a plane leaves

You're skin's strange



You always make it so hard

Lizard

You always make it so hard

Lizard



Morning comes prismed

Your eyes multi-faceted

Dreaming of islands out there



You always make it so hard

Lizard

It's always worked so far

Lizard

And you burn so cold

Lizard

You always make it so hard

Lizard



Black storms

White stars

That air rushes past your eyes

Crystalline baby, maybe



You always make it so hard



You always make it so hard

Lizard

It's always worked so far

Lizard

And it burnt so cold

Lizard

You always make it so hard

Lizard

You always make it so hard

Lizard

You always make it so hard

VAN MORRISON lyrics - I Can't Stop Loving You

I can't stop loving you

Since I made up my mind

To live in memories

Of a lonesome time



I can't stop wanting you

It's useless to say

So I just live my life

In dreams of yesterday



Those happy hours

Oh, those happy hours

That we once knew

Oh, that we once knew

So long ago

So long ago, baby

Still make me blue

Yeah, still make me blue

They say the time

They say that time

Heals a broken heart

Heal a broken heart

But time has stood still

But time has stood still

Since we've been apart

Oh, since we've been apart



I can't stop loving

Since I made up my mind

Living in, live, live, live, live, live, live in memories

Of a lone, lonesome time



I can't stop wanting you

It's useless to say

So I just live my life

In dreams of yesterday



I can't stop loving you

Since I made up my mind

Oh, to live in memory, baby

Of a lonesome time



I can't stop wanting you

It's useless to say

So I just live my life

In Dreams of yesterday

Of yesterday.

PHISH lyrics - Mound

The old man knows very well

Going down by the snowbank, there's a mound

A mound that an old man knows good

Look who raises his shoe all over this mound

Right over the world that's another rewind



And it's time, time, time for the last rewind

For a broken old man and a world unkind

He buried all his memories of home

In an icy clump that lies beneath the ground



No one knows how far he traveled

Oh! I heard he walked miles from the little mound

Can he find some shelter?

He doesn't know to behold what the cold frost can do

And at last till he realized he'd circled back around

Round a back circle, round a back realized



Ice is all he was made of

The bitter blue, and frozen through

He went over to the mound

Reclining down his final thoughts

Were drifting to the time this life had shined

THE SUPREMES lyrics - Any Girl In Love (Know's What I'm Going Through)

(Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland, Jr.)



Any girl in love, ooh!

Yeah, knows what I'm going through

I've got an aching heart

Makes me cry sometimes

I've got an aching heart

Makes me cry sometimes



For every aching heart

Some tears must fall

'Cause when you lose the one you love

You lose your all and all



Any girl in love, ooh!

Yeah, knows what I'm going through

Any girl in love, ooh!

Yeah, knows what I'm going through



The way I miss your loving

Makes me cry sometimes

The way I miss your loving

Makes me cry sometimes



I gave you my love

In you I had no doubts

But as soon as love walked in

You walked right out



Any girl in love, ooh!

Yeah, knows what I'm going through

Any girl in love, ooh!

Yeah, knows what I'm going through



The way you hesitate to kiss me

Makes me cry sometimes

The way you never seem to miss me

Makes me cry sometimes

But I never bother

To wipe the tears from my face

'Cause I know another tear

Will fall in it's place



Any girl in love, ooh!

Yeah, knows what I'm going through

Any girl in love, ooh!

Yeah, knows what I'm going through

ELVIS PRESLEY lyrics - It Feels So Right

(Fred Wise - Ben Weisman)



Step in these arms, where you belong

It feels so right, so right

How can it be wrong?



There's something in the way you kiss

That makes me want to hold you tight

I know that nothing can't be wrong

that feels so right.



Each time we touch, you thrill me so

It means so much, so much

I can't let you go



This isn't only for tonight

We're gonna love our whole life long

'Cause baby, if it feels so right

How can it be wrong?

VINCE GILL lyrics - Real Mean Bottle

(Vince Gill)



No man ever sounded so lonesome

No man ever made you feel such pain

Lord, it must have been a real mean bottle

That made you sing that way



The stories you told about prison

About a young man gone astray

Lord, it must have been a real mean bottle

That made you write the songs that way



[Chorus:]

A real mean bottle

Poured straight from the Devil

It's a miracle you're standin' here today

A real mean bottle

Made you such a rebel

It must have been a real mean bottle

Made you sing that way



You spent most all your life with strangers

With a ramblin' fever in your veins

Hag, it must have been a real mean bottle

That made you play the blues that way



[Chorus]



A real mean bottle

Poured straight from the Devil

It must have been a real mean bottle

Made you sing that way

THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS lyrics - Kiss Me, Son Of God (Alternate Version)

I built a little empire out of some crazy garbage

Called the blood of the exploited working class

But they've overcome their shyness

Now they're calling me Your Highness

And a world screams, "Kiss me, Son of God"



I destroyed a bond of friendship and respect

Between the only people left who'd even look me in the eye

Now I laugh and make a fortune

Off the same ones that I tortured

And a world screams, "Kiss me, Son of God"



I look like Jesus, so they say

But Mr. Jesus is very far away

Now you're the only one here who can tell me if it's true

That you love me and I love me



I built a little empire out of some crazy garbage

Called the blood of the exploited working class

But they've overcome their shyness

Now they're calling me Your Highness

And a world screams, "Kiss me, Son of God"

Yes a world screams, "Kiss me, Son of God"

YELLO lyrics - Out Of Dawn

You're shaking me softly,

Turn me up side down,

You're the queen of my emotion,

Your invisible crown.

Invisible crown

As your beatutiful mind,

You're driving me crazy,

You're one of a kind.

You give me pleasure, shakes, desire.

You give me shivers, love and drive.



I wanna be with you

Till the end of time.

And you will always fly,

You'll never be mine.

And when I see you smile,

It's like a distant light.

Fear of your fading love.



You're shaking me softly,

Turn me upside down,

You're the queen of the lonely,

Your invisible crown.

Invisible crown,

As your beautiful mind,

You're driving me crazy,

You're one of a kind.

You give me pleasure, shakes, desire.



I wanna be with you

Till the end of time.

And you will always fly,

You'll never be mine.

And when I see you smile,

It's like a distant light.

Fear of your fading love.



You're shaking me softly,

Turn me up side down,

You're the queen of my emotion,

Your invisible crown.

Invisible crown

As your beatutiful mind,

You're driving me crazy,

You're one of a kind.

You give me pleasure, shakes, desire.



I wanna be with you

Till the end of time.

And you will always fly,

You'll never be mine.

And when I see you smile,

It's like a distant light.

Fear of your fading love.

ENIGMA lyrics - The Screen Behind The Mirror

Here's the mirror, behind there is a screen

Turn around, on both ways you can get in

The experience of survival

Look around just people, can you hear their voice

Find the one who'll guide you to the limits of your choice

The experience of survival

Try to think about it...

That's the chance to live your life and discover

Try to think about it...

The experience of survival

The experience...

The experience of survival

The experience...

FLEETWOOD MAC lyrics - Bermuda Triangle

(Bob Welch)



I guess you've heard about the Bermuda triangle

There's something going on

Nobody seems to know just what it is

And the airforce won't let on

It might be hole down in the ocean

Yeah or a fog that won't let go

It might be some crazy people talking

Or somebody that we ought to know

Down in Bermuda, the pale blue sea

Way down in the triangle, it's easy to believe

Now here's one

You see strange shapes in moonlight

And shadows in the night

They said that wingtip seemed to brush their faces

And strangers stole their sight

Way down in the triangle

Where the sea was smooth as glass

Giving you one answer to a question

That you never thought you'd ask

Ah down in Bermuda, in the pale blue sea

Way down in Bermuda, yeah it's easy to believe

Down in the triangle, it's easy to believe

They came from Galveston

They came from New Orleans

And then from Bloomington, and Delaware

The used St. Petersburg, they came from Tampa

And then from Mexico, it doesn't matter where

They all completely share,

All of those ships and planes,

A great big mystery that cannot be explained,

Down in Bermuda, in the pale blue sea

Your feeling safe in your harbour

And everything seems certain

Right next to Palm Beach and Key Biscane

Behind a velvet curtain

But then the moon goes grey with worry

And the sea turns a pale white

You better believe something strange is going on tonight

Down in Bermuda, ah, the pale blue sea

Bermuda Triangle, yeah, it's easy to believe

Down in the Triangle, it's easy to believe

They came from Galveston

They came from New Orleans

And then from Bloomington, and Delaware

Bermuda, the pale blue sea

PETER GABRIEL lyrics - Ein Normales Leben

Wie nett hier - der Blick auf den Park

Mahlzeit mit dem Loeffel?

Warum keine Messer?

Sie schauen auf den Park

jeden Tag

bestimmt - bald schon geht es ihnen besser

VAN MORRISON lyrics - Frankie & Johnny

(Traditional)



[L. D.]

"We'll take it a bit slower"

"This is, this is the, huh, this is the first song I ever learned, actually"



Frankie and Johnny were sweethearts

Lordy, how they could love

Swore to be true to each other

Yeah, true to the skies above

He was her man, wouldn't do her no wrong



And Frankie and Johnny went walkin'

And Johnny had on a new suit

Yeah, Frankie spent one-hundred dollar notes

Just to make her man look cute

He was her man, he wouldn't do her no wrong



Frankie went over to the barroom

Stopped for a bottle of beer

Said to the old bartender man

"Has my lover Johnny man been here?"

"He was my man, Lord, but he'd been doin' me wrong, so wrong."



Yeah, Frankie looked over the transom door

And there to her great surprise

There sat her lover man Johnny

Makin' love to Nellie Bly

He was her man, but he was doin' her wrong



Well, Frankie lifted up her kimono dress

And she drew (ladaladalala) out a little.44

She shot once, twice, three times (three times) she shot him

And through that hardwood (door) floor

Yeah, she shot her man (yeah he was her man)

Well, but he been doin' her wrong yeah



He said," roll me over so careful ah

Roll me over so slow,

Oh roll me off to my left hand side,

Because your bullet hurt me so,

I was your man, but I been doin' you wrong."



Play it Chris!



[Instrumental & trombone & guitar solo]



Well, they sent for Frankie's mother

Come down to Huddie's saloon

To see what's the matter with her boy

She come down, Frankie looked up at her

Here what she said:



She said, "Oh Mrs. Johnson, oh forgive me please

Well I killed your lovin' son, Johnny

But I'm down on my bended knee

I shot your man, 'cause he was doin' me wrong ah'.



She said, "I'll forgive you Frankie,

She said, I'll forgive you not, not

For killin' lovin' son Johnny,

He's the only support that I've got,

'Lord, you shot my man and he was doin' you wrong."



Well, the last time I seen Frankie

She was a-sittin' in a dungeon cell

She would be there lonely, herself

With no one there to care

She shot her man, a-he'd been doin' her wrong, so wrong



Well, bring out the rubber tired (hearse) so long

You gotta bring out your pony and trap

Yeah, they're gonna take Johnny, Johnny to the cemetery (graveyard)

And he ain't never coming back

Well, he was her man

Oh, but he been doin' her wrong, so wrong



Well, the story ain't got no moral, Lordy

But the story ain't got no end

Well, the story only goes to show

That there ain't no damn good in men!

She shot her man (he was her man)

But he was doin' her wrong



Yeah, ba-da-ba-ba-da-ba-ba-da-ba-ba-ba-ba.



Woo!

Thank you very much.

JANE'S ADDICTION lyrics - Mountain Song

Comin' down the mountain

One of many children

Everybody has

Their own opinion

Everybody has

Their own opinion

Holding it back

Hurts so bad

Jumped out of my flesh

And i said

Cash in!

Cash in now honey

Cash in now

Cash in now

Cash in now honey

Cash in miss smith

Cash in now!

I was comin' down the mountain

Met a child she had pin eyes

We had the same opinion

Had the same opinion

She was holding it back

It hurts so bad

Jumping out of her flesh

And i said

Cash in!

Cash in now honey

Cash in now

Cash in now

Cash in now honey

Cash in miss smith

Cash in now!

ROD STEWART lyrics - Some Guys Have All The Luck

(J. Fortgang)



Chorus:

Some guys have all the luck

Some guys have all the pain

Some guys get all the breaks

Some guys do nothing but complain



Alone in a crowd on a bus after work

and I'm dreaming

The guy next to me has a girl in his arms

My arms are empty

How does it feel when the girl next to you

says she loves you

It seem so unfair when there's love everywhere

but there's none for me



(Chorus)



Someone to take on a walk by the lake

Lord let it be me

Someone who's shy

Someone who'll cry at sad movies

I know I would die if I ever found out

she was fooling me

You're just a dream and as real as it seems

I ain't that lucky



(Chorus)



All of my friends have a ring on their finger

They have someone

Someone to care for them it ain't fair

I got no one

The car overheated

I called up and pleaded

There's help on the way

I called you collect you didn't accept

You had nothing to say



(Chorus)



But if you were here with me

I'd feel so happy I could cry

You are so dear to me

I just can't let you say goodbye

OZZY OSBOURNE lyrics - My Jekyll Doesn't Hide

(O. Osbourne - G. Butler - Z. Wylde)



Condemned to violence, arrested by pain

Inside the soul lies a man insane

Conceived in anger, addicted to hate

The mutant child of a twisted state



Beware the contradiction

Beneath the crimson void

'cos in the world of fiction

My Jekyll doesn't hide



A killer's smile with a psycho star dream

Behind the mask things aren't what they seem

Unholy soldier, disciple of sin

What kind of mind are you living in



You're preaching revolution

Don't you mean genocide?

Behind this resolution

My Jekyll doesn't hide



Waiting to die for the very first time

All right, that's right

Waiting to die for the very first time

All right, that's right

Waiting to die for the very first time

I don't give a damn,

'cos I think it's my time, my time



The symbiosis of murder and lies

What do I see looking through your disguise?

Fourth reich dementia, subversion ideals

God only knows what your secret conceals



Who will be the first offender?

Who will be victimized?

In your perverse agenda

My Jekyll doesn't hide

RICKY NELSON lyrics - Restless Kid

I came in like a restless wind

On a wagon train

But I'm gonna go like a July snow

Back to where I came from

Gonna leave this hum drum

It's to slow and tame



None of your business where I've been

Don't ask me what I've done

Run your ranch and punch your cows

And stay behind my gun man

Colorado's right hand will put you on the run



I got a gal in Denver town

That's crying over me

But I said goodbye and I let her cry

I miss her company

But I'll get out of this rut

Rio Bravo's killin' me



They got a man locked in a cell

That's a free'r man than I

He's gonna laugh right in their face

When they lead him out to die

And he's gonna leave this badland

And ride off in the sky



You're gonna see ol' Colorado

Headin' for the door

You better believe I'm gonna leave

Like the 904 train

Gotta breath some air again

That ain't been breathed before

WARREN ZEVON lyrics - Back In The High Life Again

It used to seem to me

That my life ran on too fast

And I had to take it slowly

Just to make the good parts last

But when you're born to run

It's so hard to just slow down

So don't be surprised to see me

Back in that bright part of town



I'll be back in the high life again

All the doors I closed one time will open up again

I'll be back in the high life again

All the eyes that watched me once will smile and take me in

And I'll drink and dance with one hand free

Let the world back into me

And on I'll be a sight to see

Back in the high life again



You used to be the best

To make life be life to me

And I hope that you're still out there

And you're like you used to be

We'll have ourselves a time

And we'll dance 'til the morning sun

And we'll let the good times come in

And we won't stop 'til we're done



We'll be back in the high life again

All the doors I closed one time will open up again

We'll be back in the high life again

All the eyes that watched us once will smile and take us in

And we'll drink and dance with one hand free

And have the world so easily

And oh we'll be a sight to see

Back in the high life again



We'll be back in the high life again

All the doors I closed one time will open up again

We'll be back in the high life again

All the eyes that watched us once will smile and take us in

And we'll drink and dance with one hand free

And have the world so easily

And oh we'll be a sight to see

Back in the high life again

BRIAN ENO lyrics - Here He Comes

Here he comes

The boy who tried to vanish to the future or past

Is no longer here with his sad blue eyes.



Here he comes

He floated away and as he rose above reason

He rose above the clouds, he was seven feet high.



Here he comes

The night is like a glove and he's floating like a dove

That catches the wind in the deep blue sky.



Here he comes

The boy who tried to vanish to another time

Is no longer here with his sad blue eyes.



Here he comes

Here he comes

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh



Here he comes

The boy who tried to vanish to another place

Sees us following here all one at a time.



Here he comes

And we're checking out each other's supplies

And looking at the eyes of all the others standing in the line.



Here he comes

The night is like a glove and he's floating like a dove

With his deep blue eyes in the deep blue sky.



Here he comes

The boy who tried to vanish to the future or past

Is no longer alone among the dragonflies.



Here he comes

Here he comes

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Who will remember him?

Who will remember him?

JOURNEY lyrics - Lights

(Perry/Schon)



[Chorus:]

When the lights go down in the City

And the sun shines on the bay

I want to be there in my City

Ooh, ooh



So you think you're lonely

Well my friend I'm lonely too

I want to get back to my City by the bay

Ooh, ooh



It's sad, oh there's been mornings out on the road without you,

Without your charms,

Ooh, my, my, my

THE FLAMING LIPS lyrics - Lightning Strikes The Postman

I got yer letter it had turned to sand, lighting strikes the postman in

His hand, I hope that you remember the things you had to say, it's just

A supernatural delay... I got yer package it was all a mess, lightning strikes

The postman in his chest, I hope that you remember the things you

Had to

Say, it's just a supernatural delay...

I sent you a postcard and I hope yer fine

But lightning strike the postman all the time

I couldn't really think of anything to say

It's just a supernatural delay,

And it's hard to read the writing through the flames...

WEIRD AL YANKOVIC lyrics - Gump

Gump sat alone on a bench in the park

"My name is Forrest," he'd casually remark

Waitin' for the bus with his hands in his pockets

He just kept sayin' life is like a box of chocolates



He's Gump, He's Gump

What's in his head?

He's Gump, He's Gump, He's Gump

Is he in-bred?



Gump was a big celebrity

He told JFK that he really had to pee

He never feels too dumb because

His mom always told him stupid is as stupid does



He's Gump, He's Gump

He's kinda square

He's Gump, He's Gump, He's Gump

What's with that hair?



Run... run... run, run, now Forrest

Run... run... run like the wind now

Run... run... run, run, now Forrest

Run... stop!



His buddy Bubba was a shrimp-lovin' man

His friend with no legs he called Lieutenant Dan

His girlfriend Jenny was kind of a slut

He went to the White House, showed LBJ his butt



He's Gump, He's Gump

He's not too bright

He's Gump, He's Gump, He's Gump

But he's alright



Is this Gump out of his head?

I think so

Is this Gump really brain dead?

I think so

Did this Gump make lots of bread?

I think so

And that's all I have to say about that

NIRVANA lyrics - Paper Cuts

When my feeding time

She push food through the door

I crawl towards the cracks of light

Sometimes I can't find my way



Newspapers spread around

Soaking all that they can

A cleaning is due again

A good hosing down



The lady whom I feel maternal love for

Cannot look me in the eyes

But I see hers and they are blue

And they cock and twitch and masturbate!



I said so [x3]

Nirvana [x6]



Black windows are paint

I scratch with my nails

I see others just like me

Why do they not try escape?



They bring out the older ones

They point at my way

The older ones come with lights

And take my family away



And very later I have learned

To accept some friends of ridicule

My whole existence was for your amusement

And that is why I'm here with you!



To take you

With me to

Your eyes...



Nirvana [x8]

JOE COCKER lyrics - Just To Keep From Drowning

I went down to the river

Just to see if it would rain

I looked down in the water

I could not believe my eyes

A face and a reflection

Was staring back at me ahah

And it scares me just to think

About the power that this woman has on me



Just to keep from drowning

I get down on my knees to pray

Just to keep from drowning

I'll do anything you say

Help me now

Help me now



It rained the day I met her

I should have known that was a sign

But I couldn't see the weather

That woman almost made me blind

I wanted her to love me

Now all I want is to be free

And it scares me just to think

About the power that this woman has on me



Just to keep from drowning

I'll do anything I can

Just to keep from drowning

Lord I need a helping hand

Help me now

Help me now



I hear the river call my name

But the water's dark and cold

I see your face

And I'm afraid this time

That I will lose my soul

I will lose my soul

I might lose my soul

Help me

Help me now



Just to keep from drowning

I get down on my knees to pray

Just to keep from drowning

I'll do anything you say

Help me now

Help me please



What else's gonna save me from drowning here

Just to deliver me

Keep from drowning

I get on my knees to pray

Just to free my soul

Just to keep from drowning

You know I'd do anything you say woman

Ooh

Have me talking baby

Drowning

Drowning



Can't we

Living like it should

With unbroken heart

I'd do anything



Just to keep from drowning

Just to keep from burning down

I get on my knees to pray



I said it scares me

Just to think about you woman

How will she help for me

I gotta keep from drowning

PETE TOWNSHEND lyrics - Empty Glass

Why was I born today

Life is useless like Ecclesiastes say

I never had a chance

But opportunity's now in my hands



I stand with my guitar

All I need's a mirror

Then I'm a star

I'm so sick of dud TV

Next time you switch on

You might see me...oh. what a thrill for you



I've been there and gone there

I've lived there and bummed there

I've spinned there, I gave there

I drank there and I slaved there



I've had enough of the way things been done

Every man on a razors edge

Someone has used us to kill with the same gun

Killing each other by driving a wedge



My life's a mess I wait for you to pass

I stand here at the bar, I hold an empty glass



Why was I born today

Life is useless like Ecclesiastes say

I didn't get a chance

Opportunity's in my hand



I stand with my guitar

All I need's a mirror

Then I'm a star

I'm so sick of dud TV

Next time you switch on

You might see me...



I've been there and gone there

I've lived there and bummed there

I've spinned there, I gave there

I drank there and I slaved there



I've had enough of the way things have been done

Every man on a razors edge

Someone has used us to shoot with the same gun

We where killing each other by driving a wedge



My life's a mess I wait for you to pass

I stand here at the bar, I hold an empty glass



Don't worry smile and dance

You just can work life out

Don't let down moods entrance you

Take the wine and shout



My life's a mess I wait for you to pass

I stand here at the bar, I hold an empty glass

ROBERT PLANT lyrics - Win My Train Fare Home (If I Ever Get Lucky)

(Plant/Adams/Deamer/Baggott/Jones/Thompson)



If I ever get lucky mama

Win my train fare home

If I get lucky babe

Win my train fare home

I'm goin' back to the border

Where I'm better known

Oh your calf is hungry mama

Hey baby I believe he needs to suck

Oh your calf is hungry baby

Mama I believe he needs a suck

Oh your milk is turning blue

I believe he's outta luck



Hey yeah, yeah



You know you got me crawlin and the grass grows very high

I'm just gonna keep on crawlin now baby until the day I die

Crawl into your window,

Crawl into your door

Crawl anyway you want now

Baby I'm gonna crawl across your floor



Yallah Yallah oh Yallah



Well that's all right mama

Baby that's all right for you

Oh that's all right baby

Oh mama that's all right for you

To be low down dirty any old way you do



Oh well oh well



You know you got me crawlin now babe and the grass grows very high

I'm just gonna keep on crawlin now baby until the day I die

Gonna craw into your window,

Gonna crawl into your door

Gonna crawl anyway you want now

Baby I'm gonna crawl across your floor, crawl across your floor

CROSBY, STILLS & NASH lyrics - War Games

(Stephen Stills)



[Intro. (Synths)]



Can you stop your instincts?

Can you man your thought control, sir?

Can you give the last command

Or lie to a good soldier



I'm a doubter, I'm a fool

I am but a man

Cast me out or let me be

All that I am



I am not so sure

What you want me for

Either your machine

Is a fool or me



Now there is no time to wait

No time to think it over

Take the path, believe the math

You'll tell me when it's over



I'm a fighter, I've a question

Won't you answer me?

I have earned the right to know

And tell you what I see



I am not so sure

What you want me for

Either your machine

Is a fool or me



[Ending (Synths and Electric Guitar)]

EARTH, WIND AND FIRE lyrics - Love's Holiday

(Maurice White & Skip Scarborough)



Would you mind if I

touch,

if I kiss, if I held you tight

in the morning light

Would you mind if I said how I felt tenderly tonight

again cause



I never ever felt this way in my heart before

Love has a holiday in my heart tonight



Would you mind if I looked

into your eyes till I'm hypnotized

and I lose my pride

Would you mind if I make love to you till I'm satisfied

again cause



I never ever felt this way in my heart before

Love has a holiday in my heart tonight

RAY CHARLES lyrics - The Lady Is A Tramp

I've wined and dined on Mulligan Stew, and never wished for Turkey

As I hitched and hiked and grifted too, from Maine to Albuquerque

Alas, I missed the Beaux Arts Ball, and what is twice as sad

I was never at a party where they honored Noel Ca-ad (Coward)

But social circles spin too fast for me

My "hobohemia" is the place to be

I get too hungry, for dinner at eight

I like the theater, but never come late

I never bother, with people I hate

That's why the lady is a tramp

I don't like crap games, with barons and earls

Won't go to Harlem, in ermine and pearls

Won't dish the dirt, with the rest of the girls

That's why the lady is a tramp

I like the free, fresh wind in her hair

Life without care

I'm broke, it's o'k

Hate California, it's cold and it's damp

That's why the lady is a tramp

I go to Coney, the beach is devine

I go to ballgames, the bleachers are fine

I find a Winchell, and read every line

That's why the lady is a tramp

I like a prizefight, that isn't a fake

I love the rowing, on Central Park lake

I go to Opera and stay wide awake

That's why the lady is a tramp

I like the green grass under my shoes

What can I lose, I'm flat, that's that

I'm alone when I lower my lamp

That's why the lady is a tramp



[A few additional verses from the "Ella In Berlin" CD:]

Girls get massages, they cry and they moan

Tell slender Ella to leave me alone

I'm not so hot, but my shape is my own

That's why the lady is a tramp

The food at the Kopensky is perfect, no doubt

I couldn't tell you wha the Ritz is about

Drop a nickle in, and coffee comes out

That's why the lady is a tramp

Like the sweet, fresh, rain in my face

Diamonds and lace, no got, so what?!

For Frank Sinatra, I whistle and stamp

That's why the lady is a tramp

She's a hobo

She's a scamp

She's a no-good kinda tramp

That's why the lady is a tramp

BRYAN ADAMS lyrics - Song For A Star

This is a song for a star

If you really are a star

Here is a song for you all

Take a lesson before you fall



We're caught in the middle of everything

It's like trying to figure out which bell to ring

You think you'd made the start of it

But this is just the start of it now



Steppin' in time with your pace

Tho' we've never yet met face to face

This is a song for yourself

In the hopes that we don't do it wrong



We're caught in the middle of everything

Lookin' and turnin' out songs to sing

It could've been the start of it

But this is just the start of it now



You can be a star if you can climb

Just make sure you are in the nick of time



This is a song for a star (song for a star)

This is a song for a star (song for a star)

This is a song for a star

If you really are a star

This to whoever you are

If you really are a star

THE KINKS lyrics - People Take Pictures Of Each Other

People take pictures of the Summer,

Just in case someone thought they had missed it,

And to proved that it really existed.

Fathers take pictures of the mothers,

And the sisters take pictures of brothers,

Just to show that they love one another.



You can't picture love that you took from me,

When we were young and the world was free.

Pictures of things as they used to be,

Don't show me no more, please.



People take pictures of each other,

Just to prove that they really existed,

Just to prove that they really existed.

People take pictures of each other,

And the moment to last them for ever,

Of the time when they mattered to someone.



People take pictures of the Summer,

Just in case someone thought they had missed it,

Just to proved that it really existed.

People take pictures of each other,

And the moment to last them for ever,

Of the time when they mattered to someone.

Picture of me when I was just three,

Sucking my thumb by the old oak tree.

Oh how I love things as they used to be,

Don't show me no more, please.

BRIAN ENO lyrics - Dead Finks Don't Talk

Oh cheeky cheeky

Oh naughty sneaky

You're so perceptive

And I wonder how you knew.



But dead finks don't walk too well (oh no)

A bad sense of direction (oh no)

And so they stumble round in threes (oh no)

Such a strange collection.



Oh, you headless chicken

Can those poor teeth take so much kicking?

You're always so charming

As you make your way up here.



And dead finks don't dress too well

No discrimination

To be a zombie all the time

Requires such dedication.



"Oh please sir, will you let it go by,

'Cos I failed both tests with my legs both tied

In my place the stuff is all there

I've been ever so sad for a very long time.



My my, they wanted the works:

Can you this? and that? I never got a letter back

More fool me, bless my soul

More fool me, bless my soul."



Oh perfect masters

They thrive on disasters

They all look so harmless

Till they find their way up here.



But dead finks don't talk too well

They've got a shaky sense of diction

It's not so much a living hell

It's just a dying fiction.

RICHARD THOMPSON lyrics - Mr. Rebound

(Richard Thompson)



My sweetheart she bounced right out of my arms

She was gone before I remembered to cling

Did I reach out too slowly to catch her

Or was she by nature a slippery thing



Into the arms of Mr. Rebound

Into the arms of Clean Up Joe

Into the arms of Mr. Rebound

Mr. Rebound, as if I didn't know



He'll give her laughs and he'll give her dreams

I gave her the kids and the pots and pans

He'll do for the dash and he'll do for the sprint

But he won't do for a marathon man



I know for a fact that she ain't coming back

To tell you the truth, I'm a little bit glad

She may be blind with the things on her mind

But how can she stand to touch something that bad

10CC lyrics - Don't Hang Up

Hello there

How have you been

I've called a million times

But to me you're never in

I know I never had the style

or dash of Errol Flynn

But I loved you

I'm doing really well

I'm as happy as a lark

I got a new apartment

It's as safe as Central Park

And if they ever mug me

When I'm walking in the dark

Will you know

Don't hang up

Don't hang up

Rolled up in my camera

With the big cheese up above

I stumbled from my stag night

To a never ending limousine

The band went la di da di da

And I got loady do di dodied

Lousy violins began to play

I went no no no

And as the vol-au-vents exploded

I was walking down the aisle the other way

Don't hang up

Don't hang up

Don't say, Oooh

Nobody's safe in our house

Leave me alone

But a but a please

Leave me alone

Just a mo, a minute

I'm so alone

We had

Some honeymoon on itchy bedding

Scum buzzing round your busy body

Dumb waiters waiting sweating straining

All mass-debating my woman

We got a

Bum Guatemala pensione

Crumbling about our ears, Ole

Even the trash man he say

You got a dustbin romance

It's going down the drain

You got a low impedance

She's got a rocky terrain

Ooh, you got a lot to learn

Ooh, you got a lot to learn

You got a lot to learn about women

A lot to learn about women, women

What's to learn about women

We've both got a lot to learn

Surprise surprise

There's a hell of a well in your eyes

Have we won the no Nobel Prize

Has the colour run out of our dies

Surprise surprise

There's a hell of a well in your eyes

When the barman said "What're you drinking?"

I said marriage on the rocks

I know I never had the style

or dash of Errol Flynn

But I loved you

Don't hang up

Don't hang up

Don't say...... )

Love to see when ya move in the rhythm;

It gives great joy to feel such sweet togetherness,

Everyone doin' and they're doing their best

Huh, it remind I of the days in Jericho,

Gonna trod until Babylon falls.

So hand I the suru board,

'Cause most of all we ain't got nothing to lose. We-e-e-ey!



(Jump, jump, jump,) Nyabinghi!

(Jump, jump, jump,) Nyabinghi! A little bit loud[er]!

(Jump, jump, jump,) Nyabinghi!

Love to see when ya groove with the riddim,

'Cause I love to when you're dancing from within!

It gives great joy to see such sweet togetherness,

'Cause everyone's doin' and they're doing their best.

When we troddin' down Jericho walls!

These are the days when we'll trod through Babylon,
