B. B. KING lyrics - Gonna Keep On Loving You



(B. B. King)



Say what you wanna

Say what you please

It don't make no difference, baby

You're all right with me

I'm gonna keep on loving you, baby

I'm gonna keep on till the day I die

I keep on loving you

Baby, because the way you satisfy



I'm gonna tell you one thing

I'm not gonna say it again

The way I love you, baby

You know it's a doggone sin

Gonna keep on loving you

I'm gonna keep on loving you, woman

Baby, until the day I die, yeah


ELF lyrics - Blanche



Rainy days, rainy days

Too many rainy days

It's been found you can't get brown

Rain go away



[First four lines repeated 2 times]



Rainy days, rainy days

Too many rainy days



[Last two lines repeated 8 times]


WARLOCK lyrics - East Meets West



Killing time

Watching signs

I'm waitin'

See on the other side of town

I've seen the walls come tumblin' down

So I've come here to make you shake



So get up get up, get up get up

Oh come on, come on,

come on why don't you come on



[CHORUS]



When East meets West

There's gonna be one hell of a mess

When East meets West

There's gonna be one hell of a mess

When East meets West



There's a finger on the trigger of a very troubled mind

Working for the love of Satan

There's no blisters on his fingers

There's no blood on his clothes

But I've seen the world that he's been makin'



So get up, get up, get up, get up

Oh come on, come on, come on, why don't you come on



[CHORUS]



When East meets West

There's gonna be one hell of a mess

When East meets West

There's gonna be one hell of a mess

When East meets West



So get up, get up, get up, get up

Oh come on, come on, come on



When East meets West

There's gonna be one hell of a mess

When East meets West

There's gonna be one hell of a mess

When East meets West



When East meets West

There's gonna be one hell of a mess

When East meets West

There's gonna be one hell of a mess

When East meets West

AEROSMITH lyrics - Get It Up



Take me on you rocking whores

Hit the lights and shut your doors

Grab your ankles everyone

Ain't my way of having fun



Can't give it up, gotta get it up, give it up, c'mon Nancy

Can't get it up, get it up, for your fancy

Gotta get it up, get it up, c'mon Nancy

Can't get it up, gotta get it up, get it up



For your fantasies my ass don't speculate

I'm just your slave, your master's bait

And lots of luck into the night

Just waitin' for the bright light fright



Can't give it up, gotta give it up, get it up, c'mon Nancy

Can't get it up, get it up, for your fancy

Gotta get it up, get it up, c'mon Nancy

Get it up, gotta get it up, c'mon Nancy



Really have a good time

Really have a good time

Suckin up the moonshine

Up underneath her clothesline



Really have a good time

Love me 'til the sun



Can't give it up, gotta get it up, get it up, c'mon Nancy

Can't give it up, gotta get it up, get it up, get it up, for your fancy

Gotta get it up, give it up, get it up, c'mon Nancy

Can't get it up, gotta get it up, get it up, get it up



Get it up and down and all around

Take the ride and paint the town

Slow me down and make it fast

Scream almost and make it last



You know you gotta really have a good time

You know your really gonna, really have a good time

Suckin up the moonshine

Up underneath the her clothesline



You know your really gonna

Really have a good time

You know you really wanna

Love me 'til the sun



Can't get it up

Get it up

NEIL YOUNG lyrics - Get Back On It



Think I'll get back on the highway

I hope I'll see you soon

Get back on it, get back on it

Think I'll get back on the highway

I hope I'll see you soon

Get back on it, get back on it

I may be late in comin' though

I got some things I gotta do



Don't let me see your tail lights

I pull a heavy load

Get back on it, get back on it

Don't let me see your tail lights

I pull a heavy load

Get back on it, get back on it

There ain't no way

to stop it though

Oh, it might explode.



It's too late for General Custer

Too late for Robert E. Lee

Get back on it, get back on it

It's too late for General Custer

Too late for Robert E. Lee

Get back on it, get back on it

But I'll get back on the highway

Before it's too late for me

Get back on it, get back on it.



Think I'll get back on the highway

I hope I'll see you soon

Get back on it, get back on it

Think I'll get back on the highway

I hope I'll see you soon

Get back on it, get back on it

I may be late in comin' though

I got some things I gotta do.


VINCE GILL lyrics - Turn Me Loose



(Vince Gill)



[10/3/83]



[Chorus:]

You better turn me loose

Turn me loose you know that I can't stay

You better turn me loose

Well turn me loose you know I'll make it anyway



Well why don't you tell me

Just what's goin' on

Both of us lyin' here

And we both know it's wrong

So why don't you let me

Why don't you leave it alone

And don't keep hangin' on to a love that's dead and gone



[Chorus]



Well you can't see it's over

That's really a shame

Well our love didn't make it

No one's to blame

So why don't we say goodbye

Why don't we just say we're through

And I'll be on my way

And I'll get by without you



[Chorus 2x]



Turn me loose you know I'll make it anyway


GEORGE STRAIT lyrics - Living And Living Well



Had a nice little life

A little boat a little beach

A little routine I liked

A blue ocean view

Free to go with the flow

Anywhere that I wanted to

But the moment you set foot on my shore

That's when I knew



There's a difference in

Living and living well

You can't have it all

All by yourself

Something's always missing

'Til you share it with someone else

There's a difference in living and living well



'Til you smiled with me

Thought that I had it good

As good as it could be

From the back of my deck

Caught a fish caught a breeze

And a thousand red sunsets

But sitting here with you girl I just saw

The best one yet



There's a difference in

Living and living well

You can't have it all

All by yourself

Something's always missing

'Til you share it with someone else

There's a difference in living and living well



My days are brighter

My sky a deeper blue

My nights are sweeter

When I'm with you



There's a difference in

Living and living well

You can't have it all

All by yourself

Something's always missing

'Til you share it with someone else

There's a difference in living and living well


JOAN BAEZ lyrics - Money For Floods



(R. Shindell)



My name is Eliza

I live by the river

My daughter Louise

Will be three in July

If July ever comes

It's beginning to feel

Like the water will never

Surrender the field



[Chorus:]

Everyone knows

Rivers will swell

But they always find money

They always find money

They always find

Money for floods



The President came

In a green helicopter

He and the Governor

Walked all around

My sister broke down

And he gave her a hug

And told her he'd do

Everything that he could



[Chorus]



When I was sixteen

I went out with a boy

I'd tell you his name

If I thought it would help

He told me he loved me

And tossed me a girl

The bigger my belly

The faster he ran



[Chorus]


ALBERT KING lyrics - Callin' On My Darlin'



(Willie Dixon / Chester Burnett a. k.a. Howlin' Wolf)



Well she hot as red pepper, sweeter than cherry pie

I'm so glad she love me, love me all the time

Cutest little baby, sweet as she can be

All that love she got, it belongs to me



If you hear me howlin'

Callin' on my darlin'

Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm



Well she kiss me in the mornin', make the lights go out

Early in the mornin' she makes me jump and shout

That bad left she's got makes me really try

Makes me really know I'm too young to die



When you hear me howlin'

Callin' on my darlin'

Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm



Well she kiss me in the mornin', make the lights go out

Early in the mornin' she makes me jump and shout

That bad left she's got makes me really try

Makes me really know I'm too young to die



When you hear me howlin'

Callin' on my darlin'

Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm



Well she hot as red pepper, sweeter than cherry pie

I'm so glad she love me, love me all the time

Cutest little baby, sweet as she can be

All that love she got, it belongs to me



If you hear me howlin'

Callin' on my darlin'

Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm

SMOKIE lyrics - The Girl Can't Help It



Little Jenny came out of school,

Givin' boys the eye,

But the smile she gave to me,

Was for some other guy - other guy.



Took her to a movie show,

A dollar-fifty treat,

Went out to the car and came right back,

Some guy was in my seat - ain't she sweet.



Chorus:

I can't help feeling this way,

Thinking it over it's crazy to stay,

Well I know that it's got to be,

The girl can't help it, she's in love with me.



Jenny, Jenny, wonder why,

Kiss the boys and see me cry,

Don't you know there'll come a day,

All the boys will walk away - walk away.



Chorus



When I'm close to you at night,

I just can't tell wrong from right,

Jenny, oh I love you so,

I will never let you go - let you go.



Chorus repeat


STEVE EARLE lyrics - Steve's Last Ramble



(Steve Earle)



I'm thinkin' 'bout givin' up this ramblin' round

Hangin' up my highway shoes

Lately when I walk they make a hollow sound

And they carry me away from you

Every night I lay my body down

My empty arms just leave me blue

So I'm thinkin' 'bout givin' up this ramblin' 'round

And find my way back home to you



I have always been the travelin' kind

A million miles behind me now

I kept on followin' that thin white line

But now I want to turn around

I only lived to hear that highway sound

High and lonesome - low and blue

Now I'm thinkin' 'bout givin' up this ramblin' 'round

And find my way back home to you



So say goodbye to all my ramblin' pals

Ol' Highway Dave and Southside Sue

I don't believe they'll miss me anyhow

What's one less wayward soul or two

Down the road they'll pass the jug around

And they'll sing them lonesome highway blues

But me I'm thinkin' 'bout givin' up this ramblin' 'round

And find my way back home to you

NICK CAVE AND THE BAD SEEDS lyrics - Stranger Than Kindness



Stranger than kindness

Bottled light from hotels

Spilling everything

Wet hand from the volcano

Sobers your skin

Stranger than Kindness



You caress yourself

And grind my soft cold bones below

Your map of desire

Burned in your flesh

Even a fool can come

A strange lit stair

And find a rope hanging there

Stranger than kindness



Keys rain like heaven's hair

There is no home there is no bread

We sit at the gate and scratch



The gaunt fruit of passion

Dies in the light

Stranger than kindness



Your sleeping hands journey

The loiter

Stranger than kindness

You hold me so carelessy close

Tell me I'm dirty

Stranger than kindness


HARRY CONNICK, JR. lyrics - It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year



(Edward Pola, George Wyle)



It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year

With the kids jingle belling

And everyone telling you "Be of good cheer"

It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year

It's the hap - happiest season of all

With those holiday greetings and gay happy meetings

When friends come to call

It's the hap - happiest season of all



There'll be parties for hosting

Marshmallows for toasting

And caroling out in the snow

There'll be scary ghost stories

And tales of the glories of

Christmases long, long ago



It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year

There'll be much mistltoeing

And hearts will be glowing

When love ones are near

It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year



There'll be parties for hosting

Marshmallows for toasting

And caroling out in the snow

There'll be scary ghost stories

And tales of the glories of

Christmases long, long ago



It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year

There'll be much mistltoeing

And hearts will be glowing

When love ones are near

It's The Most Wonderful Time

It's The Most Wonderful Time

It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year


ERIC CLAPTON lyrics - We're All The Way



(Don Williams)



There's no cause to think that I won't stay;

Haven't I been with you all the way?

There's no time like now to make amends.

After all, we are more than friends.



[Chorus:]

This could be the time for you and me.

We could go wherever we should be.

So don't put words between us we shouldn't say,

And don't be acting halfway

When you know we're all the way.



There are times when I don't see the light.

I don't know if what I do is right.

But when I'm wrong, it's never meant for you,

So don't confuse my love with what I do.



[Chorus]


PETER, PAUL AND MARY lyrics - When The Ship Comes In



(Bob Dylan)



Oh the time will come up when the wind will stop

And the breeze will cease to be breathin'

Like the stillness in the wind 'fore the hurricane begins

The hour that the ship comes in.



Oh the seas will split and the ship will hit

And the sand on the shoreline will be shakin'

And the tide will sound and the waves will pound

And the mornin' will be breakin'!



Oh the fishes will laugh as they swim out of the path

And the seagulls, they'll be smilin'

And the rocks on the sand will proudly stand

The hour that the ship comes in.



And the words that are used for to get the ship confused

Will not be understood as they're spoken'

For the chains of the sea will have busted in the night

And be buried on the bottom of the ocean.



Oh a song will lift as the mainsail shifts

And the boat drifts onto the shoreline

And the sun will respect every face on the deck

The hour that the ship comes in.



And the sands will roll out a carpet of gold

For your weary toes to be a touchin'

And the ship's wise men will remind you once again

That the whole wide world is watchin'!



Of the foes will rise with the sleep still in their eyes

And they'll jerk from their beds and think they're dreamin'

But they'll pinch themselves and squeal

And they'll know that it's for real

The hour that the ship comes in.



And they'll raise their hands sayin'

"We'll meet all your demands"

But we'll shout from the bow "Your days are numbered!"

And like Pharaoh's tribe they'll be drownded in the tide

And like Goliath they'll be conquered!


RAY CHARLES lyrics - No One To Cry To



(I need someone to say I do)

No one to cry to now, no one to say goodnight

No one to tell my troubles to



I've got no one, to sigh to, no one to hold me

Tight

No one to chear me when I'm blue



When I go home to my lonely room

And find there's no one there

And each night I think of you, so please answer this

One prayer



And you'll need someone, I said to cry to

Someone to say I do

Someone to whisper I love you



When I go home to my lonely room

And find there's no one there

And each night I think of you, so please answer this

One prayer



And you'll need someone, I said to cry to

Someone to say I do

Someone to whisper I love you

JOHN PRINE lyrics - He Forgot That It Was Sunday



The motel lights were blinkin'

On my chartreuse four door Lincoln

On the dock the fish were stinkin'

I simply didn't have a care



And the old men sit 'round the cracker barrels

The children hum their Christmas carols

The train tracks all run parallel

But they'll all meet up one day



On a dusty pew in a vestibule

Sits the Devil playing pocket pool

He's waiting for the next poor fool

Who forgot that it was Sunday



We used to tell each other lies

With our orange plastic button eyes

In a former life on a motel chair

I was Charlie Parker's teddy bear



Yeah, me and Bird we'd stay up late

I used to watch him contemplate

While his horn would sit by the window and

Wait till it was time for him to blow it



On a dusty pew in a vestibule

Sits the Devil playing pocket pool

He's waiting for the next poor fool

Who forgot that it was Sunday



The only song I ever knew

Was "Moonlight Bay on the Avenue"

These are the tales from the Devil's chin

Charlie I could've been a contender



And the old men sit round the cracker barrels

The children hum their Christmas carols

The train tracks all run parallel

But they'll all meet up one day



On a dusty pew in a vestibule

Sits the Devil playing pocket pool

He's waiting for the next poor fool

Who forgot that it was Sunday

Who forgot that it was Sunday.

JOHN KAY & STEPPENWOLF lyrics - All I Want Is All You Got



(John Kay)



Two o'clock early in the mornin'

I'm feeling down and blue

I can tell another night will go

Without dreams and without you

I call you up

Just to hear you say

The words that will soothe my soul

That will stir my fire

But it's hard making love to you on the phone

With my desire

But say you love me and I'll be all right

Say you want me to lie by your side

All I want is all you got

And all I need is your sweet love

All I want is all you got

Oh what you give is good enough



You got that look in your eye

You get to me with your sigh

You drive me mad when you moan

And I go wild, just can't leave you alone

Three 'clock we've been talking much too long

And I can't take no more

Got to feel your body next to mine

Got to see your face

I'll pick you up

We'll go riding in the hills to the stars

Out on Moonlight Drive

We got time for making love tonight

Time to feel alive

We'll lie together and never let go

We'll cling to each other 'til lights fade below


CELINE DION lyrics - I Know What Love Is



I was forgotten

Until you called my name

Lost in the shadows

Until you shined your light my way

Now I believe again

In all my dreams again

I'm wide eyed and innocent

Those doubting days

Are so far away and oh



I will fall

And you will catch me always

Time has taught me this

I will fly

And you'll be there to guide me

Straight up to my heart's highest wish

I feel you close to me

And I know what love is



Now there's no mountain

Too high for me to climb

No ocean so wide

That I could not reach the other side

Now I believe in me

Cause you live and breather in me

And nothing can come between

We are one star

No nigh can darken, Oh



I will fall

And you will catch me always

Time has taught me this

I will fly

And you'll be there to guide me

Straight up to my heart's highest wish

I feel you close to me

And I know what love is



It's an unspoken thing

A quiet opening

There are no words that can go that deep

But I know

I know



I will fall

And you will catch me always

Time has taught me this

I will fly

And you'll be there to guide me

Straight up to my heart's highest wish

I feel you close to me

And I know what love is

SAXON lyrics - Prisoner



Too late now, you wait now

You're out of time

New face now, your place now

Is that a crime

Stop talking, keep walking

You missed the sign



You made your choice

It's too late now

You threw it all away

You're just a prisoner

You're just a prisoner of lies

You're just a prisoner

You're just a prisoner of lies



Control you, involve you

You can't deny

You move me, surround me

You mystify

Can't stand it, won't make it

Just pass me by



You made your choice

It's too late now

You threw it all away

You're just a prisoner

You're just a prisoner of lies

You're just a prisoner

You're just a prisoner of lies



Too late now, you wait now

You're out of time

New face now, your place now

Is that a crime

Stop talking, keep walking

You missed the sign



You made your choice

It's too late now

You threw it all away

You're just a prisoner

You're just a prisoner of lies

You're just a prisoner

You're just a prisoner of lies



You're just a prisoner

You're just a prisoner of lies

You're just a prisoner

You're just a prisoner of lies

UFO lyrics - Messing Up The Bed



(Mogg/Moore)



Don't bust up my heart, my home, now

Don't make me ill

Don't stay around now,

No, don't you linger, don't waste my time

Don't block my light,

Don't stay here another night.



You're a waste of space and a waste of time

Get out of my house, get out of my mind

Get up! Hit the road! Get up you heavy load.



Sick out of your head

I'm sick of you messing up the bed

Get up! Move it out!

Get up, you little lout.



Sick out of your head

I'm sick of you messing up the bed

What have I done to deserve this?

Where did I go wrong?

Why did I stop instead of moving along?



Trouble with you is you don't listen anymore

Trouble with me is I don't care any more

It's all gone wrong in so little time

You can take whats yours, you can leave what's mine



I'm sick of you messing up the bed

I'm sick of you messing up the bed

I'm sick of you messing up the bed

I'm sick of you messing up the bed

I'm sick of you messing up the bed


JOHNNY CASH lyrics - Help Me



(Larry Gatlin)



Lord, Help me walk

Another mile, just one more mile;

I'm tired of walkin' all alone.



Lord, Help me smile

Another smile, just one more smile;

You know I just can't make it on my own.



I never thought I needed help before;

I thought that I could get by - by myself.

Now I know I just can't take it any more.

With a humble heart, on bended knee,

I'm beggin' You, please, Help Me.



Come down from Your golden

And throne to me, to lowly me;

I need to feel the touch of Your tender hand.



Remove the chains of darkness

Let me see, Lord let me see;

Just where I fit into your master plan.



I never thought I needed help before;

I thought that I could get by - by myself.

Now I know I just can't take it any more.

With a humble heart, on bended knee,

I'm beggin' You, please, Help Me.

ANTHRAX lyrics - Invisible



I'm wiping the slate spotless

I vow this is your final chance

Almost all but little faith has been thrown out the window

I promise to sustain my stance

You've taken everything from the get go

And you've given nothing in return

Your sado-masochism has reached the ninth inning

Still you're puzzled to see I'm concerned



Struggling, to come to terms with

This god-awful life that I live

Stumbling, but still I try

To get out from under your grip



Transparent in critical moments

You drop me when your hands aren't full

You call yourself my closest friend

Then you make yourself invisible



My simmering blood is rising

Primed and ready to explode

Get off your high horse and come to the party

I'll beat you into overload

Only through your limited viewpoint

You think you know how I exist

Easy to turn my back on the system

Hard not to be an atheist



Back in the days when promises were made

Equality for all

You go by the word from the man who gives it

Never expecting a fall



Struggling, to come to terms with

This god-awful life that I live

Stumbling, but still I try

To get out from under your grip



Transparent in critical moments

You drop me when your hands aren't full

You call yourself my closest friend

Then you make yourself invisible

Transparent in cricital moments

You drop me when your hands aren't full

You call yourself my closest friend

Then you make yourself invisible

Make yourself invisible, make yourself invisible

Make yourself invisible, make yourself invisible again



Burn...

I never should've trusted

I never should've trusted

I'm sickened and disgusted

I never should've trusted

What happened to me?


KISS lyrics - X-Ray Eyes



Sometimes you say you don't want my love today

But oh baby, I know what you're aiming at

And I know, I see everything that's in store for me

Well, baby here's your big surprise, yeah



I've got x-ray eyes, ahh

And I can see right through your lies, ahh



One day you'll see, you'll come crawling back to me

I'm your one and only, that's a fact, yeah

I'm the one, the one and only, in the end, baby you'll be lonely

I've got no time for silly goodbyes, yeah



I've got x-ray eyes (x-ray eyes)

And I can see right through your lies (ahh), yeah

I've got x-ray eyes (x-ray eyes)

And I can see right through your lies (ahh), yeah, yeah



Ooh, and I know, I see, everything that's in store for me

Well, baby here's your big surprise, yeah



I've got x-ray eyes (x-ray eyes)

And I can see right through your lies (ahh), yeah

I've got x-ray eyes (x-ray eyes)

And I can see right through your lies (ahh), yeah

I've got x-ray eyes (x-ray eyes)

And I can see right through your lies (ahh), yeah

I've got x-ray eyes (x-ray eyes)

And I can see right through your lies (ahh)

Well, I've got

Me, myself and I

You yourself and we

Enough of you enough of me

Who are you who are we

Me myself, you yourself

Enough of you enough of me

Who are you who are we

Me myself you yourself

You and we.



Underneath the paper sky we are under you and I

Inescapably in-captured with the world and ever after

Aaaaaahhh, ahhh, ahhhhhhh



Me myself and I

You yourself and we

Enough of you enough of me

Who are you who are we

Me myself you yourself

You and we.

TANITA TIKARAM lyrics - He Likes The Sun



Some say the world goes crazy

It's summertime

I say I'm feeling lazy

Hammocks in mind



And I can't change a thing

So I won't stay around

If you can still feel so hot

Why don't you feel for me?

If you can feel so much

Why don't you let it out

And let me be alone again



I keep watch. That's alright

'Cos it comes in this real night



He likes the sun

See the cornered clown

He likes the sun

Let us waste this town

And when it rains

You feel the click in his heart

And that's when the pain in mine will start

And that's when the pain in mine will start



I'm used to growing older

And feeling down inside

But yes, I know, well someone told

You should have seen him cry



Well that's not my life

I'm tired of chip inside and playing bronze for cool

Y'know that sometimes light

And sometimes you can just be that fool

Who can really say?



If I'm cross - it's a joke

If I'm lost - let it go up in smoke



He likes the sun

See the cornered clown

He likes the sun

Let us waste this town

And when it rains

You feel the click in his heart

And that's when the pain in mine will start

And that's when the pain in mine will start



Jump right out of your grass colours

And make like you were easy prey

And cheer us solemn of a possible

Is it possible?

I could really play could really play

All these things I say

Though not torn inside, though not torn

You just lie, lie low - lie low for me



I'm not in deeper waters - where everyone will claim

We used to know the daughter - throw it away it's such a shame

If you're feeling blue

And like icy looks and great command



He likes the way I'm true

But I know inside

This is a real life sham - but that's okay

And this song can't be sued

I assume - you get up and renew yourself



He likes the sun

See the cornered clown

He likes the sun

Let us waste this town

And when it rains

You feel the click in his heart

And that's when the pain in mine will start

And that's when the pain in mine will start

BUDDY GUY lyrics - Crazy Love



(Willie Dixon)



Well, if you love me baby this is what you've got to do

You got to let the world know that you love me too

If I'm crazy, you'll be crazy too

We gonna have a crazy time just playing crazy music for you



We gonna have a crazy time, we gonna jump for joy

You be my crazy girl and I'll be your crazy boy

If I'm crazy, you'll be crazy too

We gonna have a crazy time just playing crazy music for you



Crazy, crazy, crazy

I'm gonna play it standing up and I'll play it laying down

If I'm crazy, you'll be crazy too

We gonna have a crazy time just playing crazy music for you

SIMPLE MINDS lyrics - Naked Eye



You can come inside

Come into the Naked Eye



My only world falls in again

I see your face fall in again

It's so dark

I don't know your name

It's so dark

And I don't know your name



Only mirrors lie only mirrors lie now

Only mirrors lie only mirrors lie now

Through the needle's eye

Through the needle's eye now

Only mirrors lie

Lie lie



You can come inside

Come into the naked eye

Naked

Naked



I feel so high

Going up on the wall

And you're down below me

Look all around look all around now

Look all around look all around now



Only mirrors lie only mirrors lie now

Only mirrors lie only mirrors lie now

Through the needle's eye

Through the needle's eye now

Only mirrors lie

Lie lie



You can come inside

Come into the naked eye

Naked

Naked



Just wanted a special view

Just me and you

Just just just the two of us

Just two of us

Going up on the wall

Up on the wall

Going up on the wall

Up on the wall

Naked Eye Naked Eye



What do you see

And what's there to learn

Reading your books

Third diagram

Someone's in the room down below

Someone someone

Someone below

Insects

Cherries

To the cherries

On the wall

Spider


THE BYRDS lyrics - Chimes Of Freedom



(Dylan)



Far between sundown's finish and midnight's broken toll

We ducked inside the doorway, thunder crashing

As majestic bells of bolts, struck shadows in the sounds

Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashing



Flashing for the warriors, whose strength is not to fight

Flashing for the refugees on the unarmed road of flight

And for each and every underdog soldier in the night

We gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing



Even though a cloud's white curtain in a far off corner flashed

And the hypnotic splattered mist was slowly lifting

Electric light still struck like arrows, fired but for the ones

Condemned to drift or else be kept from drifting



Starry eyed and laughing, as I recall when we were caught

Trapped by no track of hours for they hanged suspended

And we listened one last time, and we watched with one last look

Spellbound and swallowed till the tolling ended



Tolling for the aching ones whose wounds cannot be nursed

For the countless confused, accused, misused, srung-out ones and worse

And for every hung-up person in the whole wide universe

We gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing


THE STEVE MILLER BAND lyrics - You Got Me Dizzy



[Originally by Jimmy Reed]



Listen ta me baby, what I said is right

I'll leave home in the mornin' baby

But I can't stay out all night



'Cause you got me dizzy

Yeah, you got me dizzy

Yeah, you got me dizzy

And I can't even see my way



Let me tell you baby, what I say is true

I ain't never, never loved nobody

In the way that I love you



Now, you got me dizzy

Whoa, you got me dizzy

Yeah, you got me dizzy

And I can't even see my way



(I hear you)



Wait a minute babe

Don't you bip or bop

You done made me love you baby

And I swear, I just can't stop



'Cause you got me dizzy

Whoa, you got me dizzy

Yeah, you got me dizzy

I can't even see my way


THE DEAD KENNEDYS lyrics - Your Emotions



Your mommy told you this

And your daddy told you that

Always think like this

And never do that

You learned so many feelings

But what is there to that

Which are really yours

Or are you just a copycat



Your school told you this

And your church told you that

Memorize this

And don't you dare look at that

...



Just a tape recorder

Mimicking of the bores



You're so boring boring boring

Always tape machine recording

You're so boring boring boring

I've heard all this before



Planless and mindless

Scraps from anywhere

Bunch of used parts

From garbage pails everywhere

Frankenstein became a monster

Just like you

Your scars only show

When someone talks to you



You're so boring boring boring

Always tape machine recording

You're so boring boring boring

I've heard all this before

I've heard all this before

I've heard all this before

Your emotions make you a monster

Your emotions make you a monster

Your emotions make you a monster

Your emotions make you a monster


FOREIGNER lyrics - The Damage Is Done



Is there a reason

For things that you say?

The way you're treating me

All the games I won't play

Well it's too late, no longer one

Don't want you, the damage is done



Will you miss me

When I leave you behind?

Will you tell your friends

I treated you unkind?

Well it's over now, and I'm on the run

I don't want you, the damage is done



There have been rumors

That my sense of humor is lacking in some ways

To me that's no reason, it's tantamount to treason

See what the judge has to say

You need to find someone half as blind

As I am to your games

And maybe you'll find out what it's all about

And it can drive you insane



Ooh the damage is done

And now I feel it's too late

The damage is done

It's over

Now I'm on the run

And baby you and I know

The damage is done



I feel it's too late

The damage is done

LYLE LOVETT lyrics - The Alley Song



You got none in your pockets

You got none in your hands

Well, I don't have to see your eyes

To know what you're not thinkin'



And even when you're not the best

You still try hard as hell

Well, I saw him walkin' in the alley

He stopped to wish me well

And he told me go to California

'Cause that's where it all sells



And I knew this girl from Atlantic City

Full of generality

All she could do is talk and smile

But she got the best of me



And even when you're not the best

You still try hard as hell

Well, I saw her walkin' in the alley

She stopped to wish me well

And she told me go to California

'Cause that's where it all sells



And you find porch on Church Avenue

You're laughin' at me now

'Cause you were standin' when I came here

And you're still standin'



And when you know you're not the best

You hope no one can tell

Well, I saw them layin' in the alley

I stopped to wish them well

And you know I went to California

TRAFFIC lyrics - Coloured Rain



(Winwood/Capaldi/Wood)



Yesterday I was a young boy

Searching for my way

Not knowing what I wanted

Living life from day to day

'Till you came along

There was nothing but an empty space and a pain



Feels like Coloured Rain

Tastes like Coloured Rain

Bring on Coloured Rain

Yeah!



I can see a sail of changing

Filling with surprise

United with a feeling

Bringing love into my eyes

Till you came along

There was nothing but an empty space and a pain

THE TEMPTATIONS lyrics - Standing On The Top



Yi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi



When you're on the top

There's no place you can really go but down, down, down

People on the street congratulate you

They say they love the way you sound, well



When you're on the low

No one wants to chit or chat or even know your name

Your agent's never there

Your manager has ripped you off and gone somewhere

Standing on the top



Standing on the top, top

On the top getting down, yeah

Standing on the top (Yeah), top

On the top getting down, Temptations sing



Standing on the top, top

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Standing on the top, top

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh



When you're on the top

Everyone you meet they wanna be your long lost friend

They say how great you are, a superstar

But do you have any money to lend

(Hey, man, can you loan me a few bucks)



When you're on the low

Where do all the freaks and fancy people go, [I don't know] I don't know

People sit and stare

Askin' crazy questions, "Do you braid your hair" and "What's L-7 Square"



Standing on the top, top

On the top getting down, ho



Hey...hoo



Standing on the top, top

On the top getting down, down, down, down

Standing on the top (Sing)

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (Well, well, well, well, well, well)

Standing on the top (Well)

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (Standing on the top getting down)



Can you understand it [We understand it]

Can you understand it what I'm talkin' about

When I say that funk is here to stay [We understand it]

Can you understand it what I'm talkin' about

That funk is here to stay, oh [We understand it]

If you understand it say, "Yeah" {Yeah...yeah...}



We want the funk

We want the funk and nothing else [We want the funk]

We want the funk and nothing else will do



We want the funk

We want the funk and nothing else [We want the funk]

We want the funk and nothing else will do



We want the funk

We want the funk and nothing else [We want the funk]

We want the funk and nothing else will do



We want the funk

We want the funk and nothing else [We want the funk]


DON HENLEY lyrics - Lilah



(Don Henley and Danny Kortchmar)



Like every young man, I had some things that I

Wanted to say

Ere I could begin, you know the world got

In my way



Oh Lilah, just sleep like a baby

To open the window and reel the fair wind

Oh Lilah, just sleep like a baby again



We spend so much time weeping and wailing and

Shaking our fists

Creating enemies that really don't exist



Oh Lilah, to sleep like a baby?

Just open the window and feel the fair wind

Oh Lilah, to sleep like a baby again



All these comings and goings that cut like a knife

These small, simple pleasures that make up a life

A man needs a home, and a child, and a wife

To always be there

Always



After I'm gone, there are some things that I know

I will miss:

The taste of your mouth, the smell of the perfume

On your wrist

Oh, Lilah, the fields lie fallow

Whate'r ye sow, so shall ye reap

Oh Lilah, this ground we hallow

Is ours to tend, but not to keep



Too-rah, loo-rah, loo-rah Lilah

Too-rah, loo-rah, loo-rah lay

Now, while all the streets are silent

Take my hand and come away


DELBERT MCCLINTON lyrics - Please Please Please



Please, please, please, please (baby, please don't go)

Please, please, please, please (baby, please don't go)

Baby, please don't go, whoa, yeah, oh

I love you so (baby, please don't go)



Well, baby, you've done me wrong (you've done me wrong)

You took my love, and now you gone (you've done me wrong)

Baby, please don't go, whoa, no, no, little girl

I love you so (baby, please don't go)



Ah, baby, take my hand (take my hand)

Oh, I wanna be your lover man (take my hand)

Baby, please don't go, oh, no, no, no, no, no, because

I love you so (baby, please don't go)



I just wanna hear you say ah, ah, ah

Ah, ah, ah

Ah, ah, ah

Ah, ah, ah

Baby, please don't go, no, no, no, baby

I love you so (baby, please don't go)



Please, don't go (please don't go)

Baby, please, please don't go (please don't go)

Baby, please don't go, no, no, no, no, no, baby, little girl

I love you so

Baby, please don't go, oh, no, no, no, no

KENNY LOGGINS lyrics - Who's Right, Who's Wrong



I've grown tired of fighting

Whether you're right or wrong

Whether I'm weak or strong in your eyes

'Cause this is a lonely feeling

Watching you turn away

Why does it have to be this way?



On and on tonight

You've made a point of being right

Making this a game instead of love

You should know

Where this goes.



Someone's heart will surely be broken

Before too long

If we keep on playing this game

Of right or wrong



[Chorus:]

Who's Right, Who's Wrong

When love is gone?

Who's right or wrong - false or true

Never used to matter to you.



You're almost crying

Saying "I've gotta run"

Easier said than done

Tell me why

I want to know what you're hiding

Turn around and look at me

I've never been this hard to see before



If we'd only come together

For a moment here tonight

You could hold me tight

And ease your troubled mind

You should know

Where this goes

Someone's heart will surely be broken

Before too long,

If we keep on playing this game

Of right or wrong.



Right or wrong, lady

Right or wrong, baby

I'm right, you're wrong lady

You're right, I'm wrong, baby



Talkin' about who's right or wrong

It never really matters

When your love is gone

Sayin' it out

This right is wrong

If all our lovin' is gone.


NEW EDITION lyrics - Tighten It Up



I know sometimes I seem a little crazy

I'm not too crazy in love

See I'm not a trick

I can take it or leave it

You can be about it

Cause I can do without it



For some reason

You take your life for granted

Like it's a game

And you always win

The things you say

And the things you do

You act like it won't come to an end

But you need to realize



[Chorus 2x:]

Easily you can be left alone

Tighten it up

You better

Before you find yourself by yourself



Some people say that I'm

Nothing but a player

I don't play when it comes to my heart

Don't be so cool

When you know everything is cool

You can be about it

Cause I can do without it



You know I let you slide once

Let you slide twice

The third time babydoll

It won't be so nice

You looking hot though

But you can't play ron devoe

The laid back mack

With mad flow so here we go

I got a hottie with a mad body

Don't you know in the 5-0-0

On the way to the crib-o

So how you live

I had to ask my man biv

Uh huh it's looking kind of positive



[Chorus]



Is this the part

You take my heart

And wipe your feet on



[Until fade]

ALANNAH MYLES lyrics - Irish Rain



I wore out my welcome as the days grew thin

In this Belfast town

It's like I've been waitin' 'til my life begins

And love comes around



I wander through the streets and I see them look away

The wind hits my bones as they whisper your name

I go out walking in the cold Irish rain



Fed up with the landlord comin' down my door

With his poison gaze

I've stared out his window and I've walked the floor

Of this sorry place



I'll take comfort in the cold until I find my faith again

Oh God know I've tried but I just can't fit in

I go out walking in the cold Irish rain



What I'd give to see the sun on your face

To lose myself, in a long embrace

How I'd love to hear the band start to play

As you turn me around, Oh I long for the day



The last of the ramblin' boys has lost his way

In these broken times

They sold off your story and they stole your rage

With this heart of mine



They pulled you from your sleep and they covered up your name

Now on Sundays they pray to see you again

I go out walking in the cold Irish rain



I go out walking in the cold Irish rain

I go out walking in the cold Irish rain...



In the rain, in the rain.


JOHN PRINE lyrics - Yes, I Guess, They Oughta Name A Drink After You



Oh I get drunk most every night

Seems like all we do is fight

The more I drink

The less I feel blue

Sometimes I feel like an awful fool

Spendin' my life on an old bar stool

And yes I guess they oughta name a drink after you



If this date were to be our last

I'd never sit down this glass

It'd take all the booze in the world

To forget you

You've left my heart a vacant lot

I'll fill it with another shot

And yes I guess they oughta name a drink after you



Looks like I had my fill

Guess I better pay my bill

When I started out I only meant to have a few

Someone just said that you left town

I better get a double round

And yes I guess they oughta name a drink after you

DARYL HALL AND JOHN OATES lyrics - Alley Katz



(Words by Daryl Hall & John Oates; Music by Daryl Hall)



Put on your feline finery "Da' Katz" are meeting down below

If you feel like rocking with a Tabby, Tom, and Calico

It'll dirty up your pedigree

But we guarantee a good time

Wee got some catnip that'll set you free

Come on, Come on, paws on the line

Alley Katz, Allen Katz come out and play

Yowlin' and howlin' a social ballet

Out in the alley it's strictly low brow

Alley Katz, Alley Katz make me meow, meow, meow

Felix is a puss in boots

He really likes to scratch and bite

Sylvester is unnatural

The Kitty is a catamite

He will dirty up your pedigree

He will guarantee a good time

He got some catnip that'll set you free

Come on, Come on, paws on the line

Alley Katz, Alley Katz come out and play

Yowlin' and howlin' a social ballet

Out in the alley it's strictly low brow

Alley Katz, Alley Katz make me meow, meow, meow


UB40 lyrics - Homely Girl



It must have broke your poor little heart

When the boys used to say,

you looked better in the dark.

But now they'd give all they learnt in school

To be somewhere in the dark with you



The teacher would ask the questions

And you, would always raise your hand

But somehow you never got your turn

And my eyes would fill with water, inside I'd burn



Homely girl, you used to be so lonely

You're a beautiful woman oh yes you are

Homely girl you used to be so lonely

You're a beautiful woman oh yeah



There was a boy who used to sit beside you

Who'd like to hold that place his whole life through

Oooh you were beautiful to me

You had a heart no one could ever see, oh yes you did



Homely girl, you used to be so lonely

You're a beautiful woman oh homely girl



I was the only one who offered

To carry your books

Took all the stares and laughter

And the dirty looks

Cause I saw then what they see now

They all want to ask you for a date

They don't know how, they don't know how



Homely girl, you used to be so lonely

You're a beautiful woman oh yeah

Homely girl you used to be so lonely

You're a beautiful woman, ooh yea, ooh hoo

You're a beautiful woman


DOLLY PARTON lyrics - The Moon, The Stars, And Me



(Wayland Patton/Diana Rae)



Tonight I feel a chill in the air

As cold as that look on your face

I hear what you're saying but coming from you

Goodbye seems so out of place

Now how can you stand there and honestly say

There never wee any real promises made



The moon is my witness

The stars will agree

They all heard you promise

You'd always love me

I know that it's true

But it's hard to believe

You lied to the moon

The stars and me



And what about all of those warm tender nights

Did they mean nothing to you

And where are the feelings I thought that we shared

Or have you forgotten them too

Did you think I could just put your memory behind

When your words are still so very clear in my mind



The moon is my witness

The stars will agree

They all heard you promise

You'd always love me

I know that it's true

But it's hard to believe

You lied to the moon

The stars and me



The moon is my witness

The stars will agree

They all heard you promise

You'd always love me

I know that it's true

But it's hard to believe

You lied to the moon

The stars and me



I know that it's true

But it's hard to believe

You lied to the moon

The stars and me

You lied

NICK CAVE AND THE BAD SEEDS lyrics - Abattoir Blues



The sun is high up in the sky and I'm in my car

Drifting down into the abattoir

Do you see what I see, dear?

The air grows heavy. I listen to your breath

Entwined together in this culture of death

Do you see what I see, dear?

Slide on over here, let me give you a squeeze

To avert this unholy evolutionary trajectory

Can you hear what I hear, babe?

Does it make you feel afraid?

Everything's dissolving, babe, according to plan

The sky is on fire, the dead are heaped across the land

I went to bed last night and my moral code got jammed

I woke up this morning with a Frappucino in my hand

I kissed you once. I kissed you again

My heart it tumbled like the stock exchange

Do you feel what I feel, dear?

Mass extinction, darling, hypocrisy

These things are not good for me

Do you see what I see, dear?

The line the God throws down to you and me

Makes a pleasing geometry

Shall we leave this place now, dear?

Is there someway out of here?

I wake with the sparrows and I hurry off to work

The need for validation, babe, gone completely berserk

I wanted to be your Superman but I turned out such a jerk

I got the abattoir blues

I got the abattoir blues

I got the abattoir blues

Right down to my shoes


THE MANHATTAN TRANSFER lyrics - Mystery



(Rod Temperton)



Turnin' back the hands of time

Holdin' on to misty memories

Chasin' shadows thru the night

Tryin' to find that happy ending

Reaching out for another chance at heaven

We can still find the way if we try



You gotta believe in the mystery

How it used to be

We were more than lonely drifters in the dark

Oh I can remember the sun inside

When love held us tight

Can't you see I need that magic in my heart

Instead of it tearing apart



Diamonds shinin' in the night

Lyin' soft and warm together

Only images survive

Can't this dream go on forever?

There is still time to lock away the sadness

Let the secrets of love start to smile



It's only believin' the mystery

Like it used to be

Baby bring back all the passion to my life

Oh don't you remember the tender days

All the love we made

Can't we feel that warm sensation here tonight, oh....



Lonely spirits seem to whisper in the wind

It's a silent song that's never meant to be

Since the dawn of time the mystery never ends

We can find forever

If we let love rise again



Won't you reach for another

chance at heaven

We can still find the way if we try



It's only believin' in the mystery

How it used to be

Baby bring back all the passion to my life

Oh cause I can remember the tender days

All the love we made

I need to feel that warm sensation - oh baby



Mystery

How it used to be

We were oh so much more

Oh baby, don't you remember (sun inside)

(held us tight)

Love held us tight

Turn around and look at me baby

Oh we gotta get back, gotta get back, gotta get back, gotta get back

Please take me there -

Oh I remember all the passion

Tender days - all the love we made

And I need to feel you baby....


MICHAEL JACKSON lyrics - Black Or White



I Took My Baby

On A Saturday Bang

Boy Is That Girl With You

Yes We're One And The Same



Now I Believe In Miracles

And A Miracle

Has Happened Tonight



But, If

You're Thinkin'

About My Baby

It Don't Matter If You're

Black Or White



They Print My Message

In The Saturday Sun

I Had To Tell Them

I Ain't Second To None



And I Told About Equality

An It's True

Either You're Wrong

Or You're Right



But, If

You're Thinkin'

About My Baby

It Don't Matter If You're

Black Or White



I Am Tired Of This Devil

I Am Tired Of This Stuff

I Am Tired Of This Business

Sew When The

Going Gets Rough

I Ain't Scared Of

Your Brother

I Ain't Scared Of No Sheets

I Ain't Scare Of Nobody

Girl When The

Goin' Gets Mean



[L. T. B. Rap Performance]

Protection

For Gangs, Clubs

And Nations

Causing Grief In

Human Relations

It's A Turf War

On A Global Scale

I'd Rather Hear Both Sides

Of The Tale

See, It's Not About Races

Just Places

Faces

Where Your Blood

Comes From

Is Where Your Space Is

I've Seen The Bright

Get Duller

I'm Not Going To Spend

My Life Being A Color



[Michael]

Don't Tell Me You Agree With Me

When I Saw You Kicking Dirt In My Eye



But, If

You're Thinkin' About My Baby

It Don't Matter If You're Black Or White



I Said If

You're Thinkin' Of

Being My Baby

It Don't Matter If You're Black Or White



I Said If

You're Thinkin' Of

Being My Brother

It Don't Matter If You're

Black Or White



Ooh, Ooh

Yea, Yea, Yea Now

Ooh, Ooh

Yea, Yea, Yea Now



It's Black, It's White

It's Tough For You

To Get By

It's Black, It's White, Whoo



It's Black, It's White

It's Tough For You

To Get By

It's Black, It's White, Whoo

SPINAL TAP lyrics - Break Like The Wind



We are the children who grew too fast

We are the dust of a future past

We raise our voices in the night crying to heaven



And will our voices be heard or will they break like the wind?



We are the footprints across the sands

We are the thumb on a stranger's hand

We made a promise in the night swearing to heaven



Is this a promise we keep or one we break like the wind?



Hey



We are the guests who have stayed too long

We are the end of the endless song

We send our hearts into the night soaring to heaven



And will out hearts still beat on or will they break like the wind?

Ooh, break like the wind



Break like the wind

Break break break like the wind


NEIL DIAMOND lyrics - Free Life



Free life

Scratch on my head

Pick me a tune

Sing it like a black man

Oh, oh, oh, mm, mm, mm



Aw Free life

You know my name

I'll leave on a light

And burn it in the window

Oh, oh, oh, mm, mm, mm



Talking 'bout round, brown ladies

And maybe some wine

All be fine



If she ain't no belle, hell, it's okay

I won't pay no mind

We'll just have us a time



Free life

I'll wait right here

But I ain't no kid

Believin' in the bible

Oh, oh, oh, mm, mm, mm

Ah, free life


CELINE DION lyrics - Beauty And The Beast



Tale as old as time

True as it can be

Barely even friends

Than somebody bends

Unexpectedly



Just a little change

Small, to say the least

Both a little scared

Neither one prepared

Beauty and the Beast



Ever just the same

Ever a surprise

Ever as before

Ever just as sure

As the sun will arise



Tale as old as time

Tune as old as song

Bittersweet and strange

Finding you can change

Learning you were wrong



Certain as the sun

Rising in the east

Tale as old as time

Song as old as rhyme

Beauty and the beast.


FAITH NO MORE lyrics - Be Aggressive



I started this

It's all for me

What's yours is yours and mine is mine

That's plain to see

So give it up

I've got to have



I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW



Be aggressive

B-e aggressive

B-e a-g-g-r-e-s-s-i-v-e



What someone else

Would leave behind

And spit it out, let go to waste

I claim is mine

You're my flavor of the week



I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW



Tall and reckless

Ugly seed

Reach down my throat

You filthy bird

That's all I need

This empty pit

I've got to feed

To prove I'm fit

A healthy man I've got to be

Malnutrition, my submission

You're the master

And I take it on my knees

Ejaculation

Tribulation



I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW, I SWALLOW



Be aggressive

B-e aggressive

B-e a-g-g-r-e-s-s-i-v-e



Go, fight, go, fight, go, fight, win

JETHRO TULL lyrics - Broadford Bazaar



Dirty white caravans down our road, sailing.

Vivas, Cortinas, weaving in their wake.

With hot, red-faced drivers, horns flattened, fists whaling,

Putting trust in blind corners as they overtake.



And it's ``All come willing now,

Spend a shilling now,

Stack up the back of your new motor-car.''

There's home-dyed woolens, and wee plastic (Cuillins?)

(blessed?) (Cuchulains?)

[Cuchulain == mythical Irish hero --- wee plastic Cuchulains?]



The day of the Broadford Bazaar.



Out of the north, no oil-rigs are drifting.

And jobs for the many are down to the few.

Blue-bottle choppers, they visit no longer.

Like flies to the jampots, they were just passing through.



And it's ``All come willing now,

Spend a shilling now,

Stack up the back of your new motor-car''

Where once stood oil-rigs so phallic

There's only swear-words in Gaelic

To say at the Broadford bazaar.



All kinds of people come down for the opening.

Crofters and cottiers, white (wild?) settlers galore.

[Crofter == farmer renting land]

[Cottier == farmer renting land]

And up on the hill, there's an old sheep that's dying,

But it had two new lambs born just a fortnight before.



And it's ``All come willing now,

Spend a shilling now,

Stack up the back of your new motor-car.''

We'll take pounds, francs and dollars from the well-heeled,

And stamps from the Green Shield.

The day of the Broadford Bazaar.

IGGY POP lyrics - Ugliness



Ugly

Ahhhhhhhooooooooooooo

Uglyyyy!

C'mon! Yeah! hey! all right

You got an ugly ass guy,

He got a problem with his dick.

You got a song with no soul,

Fucking don't mean a thing.

He got an ugly bouzy house,

He got a girlfriend on T. V,

That girl's something,

He can't sing for shit.



And I'm trying to be a person,

But they all say I'm worthless.

I'm trying to be a person,

But they all make me nervous.

This is my description of an ugliness.

This is my description of an ugliness.

This is my description of an ugliness.

This is my description of an ugliness.

Ugliness

Ugliness

Ugliness



You got a dog face chic,

With basketball tit's.

Porno sucks,

That's the truth of it.

You got a bunch of dumb fat guys,

In a wrestling uniform,

Trying to fake they're playing music,

They ought to be killed.



And I'm trying to be a person,

But they all say I'm worthless.

I'm trying to be a person,

But they all say I'm worthless.

This is my description of an ugliness.

This is my description of an ugliness.

This is my description of an ugliness.

This is my description of an ugliness.

This is my description of an ugliness.

Ugliness



They got the chics, The money cars and all, but they ain't got no motherfuckin' balls.

They got the chics, The money cars and all, but they ain't got no motherfuckin' balls.



They got a fungus on their dick,

They got bald heads and tupe's,

They're in total control,

Total fucking control,

They're even parked in my space.



You got a song with no soul,

No truth no love.

Because the music sucks,

That's why little kids blow up.

Everybody needs a gun,

To express feelings,

That should be expressed by a real musician



And I'm trying to be a person,

But they all say I'm worthless.

I'm trying to be a person,

But they all say I'm worthless.

This is my description of an ugliness.

This is my description of an ugliness.

This is my description of an ugliness.

This is my description of an ugliness.

Ugliness

Ugliness

Ugliness



They got the car the money house and all, but they ain't got no motherfuckin' balls.

You see the cocksuckers on MTV, And they ain't even got a good CD.



Ugliness

Ugliness

Ugliness



Ugliness


DEPECHE MODE lyrics - Love, In Itself



All of these insurmountable tasks

That lay before me

All of the firsts

And the definite lasts

That lay in store for me



There was a time

When all on my mind was love

Now I find

That most of the time

Love's not enough

In itself



Consequently

I've a tendency

To be unhappy, you see

The thoughts in my head

All the words that were said

All the blues and the reds

Get to me



All of the absurdities

That lay before us

All of the doubts

And the uncertainties

That lay in store for us


ZUCCHERO lyrics - Come Il Sole All'Improvviso



(Zucchero - Paoli)



Nel mondo

io camminero

tanto che poi i piedi mi faranno male

io camminero

un'altra volta

e a tutti

io domandero

finche risposte non ce ne saranno piu

io domandero

un'altra volta

Amero in modo che il mio cuore

mi fara tanto male che

male che come il sole all'improvviso

scoppiera scoppiera.



Nel mondo

io lavorero

tanto che poi le mani mi faranno male



Io lavorero

un'altra volta.



Amero in modo che il mio cuore

mi fara tanto male che

tanto che come il sole all'improvviso

scoppiera, scoppiera



Nel mondo

tutti io guardero

tanto che poi gli occhi mi faranno male

ancora guardero

un'altra volta.



Amero in modo che il mio cuore

mi fara tanto male che

tanto che come il sole all'improvviso

scoppiera, scoppiera



Nel mondo

tutti io guardero

tanto che poi gli occhi mi faranno male

ancora guardero

un'altra volta.



Amero in modo che il mio cuore

mi fara tanto male che

male che come il sole all'improvviso

scoppiera, scoppiera.



Nel mondo

io non amero

tanto che poi il cuore non mi fara male.

MARVIN GAYE lyrics - Fly Me To The Moon (In Other Words)



Fly me to the moon

And let me play amongst the stars

Let me know what spring is like

On Jupiter and Mars



In other words, hold my hand

In other words, baby kiss me



Fill my heart with song

And let me sing for ever more

You are all I long for

All I cherish and adore



In other words, please be true

In other words, I love you



Fill my heart with song

And let me sing for ever more

You are all I long for

All I cherish and adore



In other words, please be true

In other words, I love you


STEVE HACKETT lyrics - Man Overboard



We'll sit and watch the sun go down

See the waves wash to and fro

The world runs by sailboat slow



We'll anchor at the sight of land

Never doing all the things we planned

The sun sinks down way below



You pushed a man overboard

In the middle of a stormy sea

The wind blows high the palm trees moan



I think about you night and day

I'm sorry when I hear you say

The coast is clear we'll head for home


MANOWAR lyrics - King



Now is the time to reach for the sky

Gather the wind hear the voice to fly

To know why they sing about heroes and kings

Who were brave and not afraid to die

Look and you'll see that a new day will bring

The will to go on and fight through endless suffering

For all who believe wait a crown a ring

The power of the man who would be king

The power of the man who would be king



Into the fight of hopes and dreams

The master of the wind knows nothing's what is seems

The melting of the soul the wish of those who scheme

The taking of the will by destroyers of the dream

They live to spread the fear of the wrong of right of self

They want us all to live like books upon a shelf

But we know we have the power to fight and make a stand

Strike when we are challenged all across the land to be king



Fight for the crown, fight for the ring

We're fighting the world, we fight for the king



Time to face the world let brothers never fight

Forever forge ahead and keep the dream in sight

For those who never try they are sure to fail

The heart's a righteous wind that comes to fill the sail

For the glory of the king we fight to stay alive

By the power of the will, the spirit to survive to be king



Fight for the crown, fight for the ring

We're fighting the world, we fight for the king



All of the dreams held deep inside have a meaning to the soul

Freedom to bring a thought to the wing is waiting to unfold

For the crown and the ring

The power of the man who would be king



Fight for the crown, fight for the ring

We're fighting the world, we fight for the king



For the glory of the king we fight to stay alive - Fight

By the power of the will the spirit to survive - Fight

Across the gates of Heaven beyond the gates of Hell - Fight

We fought to stay together

We have won and have lived to tell who would be king



Fight for the crown, fight for the ring

We're fighting the world, we fight for the king

THE CARS lyrics - Candy-O



candy o i need you

sunday dress ruby rings

candy o i need you so

could you help me in

purple hum, assorted cards

razor lights, you bring

and all to prove you're on the move

and vanishing

candy o i need you so

candy o i need you so

the edge of night distract yourself

obstacles don't work

homogenize, decentralize

it's just a quirk

different ways to see you through

all the same in the end

peculiar star that's who you are

do you have to win


PETER, PAUL AND MARY lyrics - Love City (Postcards To Duluth)



(Noel Paul Stookey)



Hey, Margaret, I left you a note, did you get what I wrote?

I laid it between your records.

It said I'm changing my mind, and I'm leaving to find

An answer for both of us.



I think that it's better that we be apart;

I've got to find out what life is about.

I'll drop you a postcard from time to time

When I, when I, get to Love City.



Hey, Margaret, I landed today, and I flew all the way:

Now I know what you'll say about airplanes;

If God had meant us to fly

we'd be amply supplied with wings.

Ah, didn't he?



I can't waste a minute, a minute won't wait.

How would you like if I found it a minute too late?

Margaret, I miss you, want you by my side

While I'm, while I'm in Love City.



Hey, Margaret, I'm not comin' home, and I'll stay here alone

If you can't get free to follow.

But Margaret, the days are so few, won't you please hurry, too?

There's so much we must do for tomorrow.



It's getting much closer, it's coming your way.

And something more beautiful happens

inside me everyday!



I'm sending a flower; they're hard to find.

They grow, as you know, in Love City.

JUDAS PRIEST lyrics - Hard As Iron



(Tipton/Halford/Downing)



Whipcrack, stings the sky

Don't mess with me I'm danger

The meanest one alive



Earthquake, breaks the Richter scale

The more that you resist

The more the pain you'll feel



I'm blazing on to glory

There's thunder in my veins

And nothing stands before me

Forever I'll remain



Hard as iron

Sharp as steel

Stop for no man

You better beg and kneel



Untouched, cold as ice

I'll turn your blood to water

Strangle in my vice



Shock waves, bones to dust

You're messin' with a mine field

so expect the worst



I'm blazing on to glory

There's thunder in my veins

And nothing stands before me

Forever I'll remain



Hard as iron

Sharp as steel

Stop for no man

You better beg and kneel



As I destroy, last thing you'll hear me cry, is victory, is victory



I'm blazing on to glory

There's thunder in my veins

And nothing stands before me

Forever I'll remain



Hard as iron

Sharp as steel

Stop for no man

You better beg and kneel


JOHN DENVER lyrics - Chained To The Wheel



Know what you really need

You can't get enough

Too many mouths to feed

Ain't life enough

Call this survival

Don't pray for a sign



Know what you really want

You can't get it back

Down on the water front

Better watch out jack

Nights on the mainline

Rust on the rail



I've seen 'em swindle this town

I've seen 'em tumble it down

I've seen red rivers, fire and steel

I've felt the thunder chained to the wheel



Know what you mean to me

Goes deeper than that

Can't fight your destiny

Don't know where it's at

Don't look for light'n

Or pray for a sign



I've heard the legends

I've watched the skies

I feel the power

The flame in your eyes



I've seen 'em swindle this town

I've seen 'em tumble it down

I've seen red rivers, fire and steel

I've felt the thunder chained to the wheel


FOXY lyrics - Get Off



Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh



Yeah

Get off

Music may ease and end all discretion

So we can get off

We keep under the sheets with two lovelys

So we can get off



Said I hope that we get the promise, ladies

And make me get off

Take it from girls with our imagination

So we can get off



Call me up at your place, I can love you crazy

In the heat you will understand

Danger and excitement

That's what makes a lady

Find out what she wants in a man



To get off

To get off

To get off

To get off

To get off

To get off

To get off

To get

Get off



Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh



Lookin' through that dress

That drive me crazy and makes me get off

Sensuality excites my mind, it makes get off

If I were you I'd get a good perspective on how to get off

Love me wild and love me crazy, so we can get off



Call me up at your place, I can love you crazy

In the heat you will understand

Danger and excitement, that's what makes a lady

Find out what she wants in a man



To get off, to get off, to get off, to get off

To get off, to get off, to get off, to get, get off



Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh



Get off



So get off

To get off

To get off

To get

Get off

Get off

To get off

To get off

Get off

So get off

Get off

To get off

To get

Get off

Get off to get off

Get off

Get off...


PAUL MCCARTNEY lyrics - Fine Line



(Paul McCartney)



There is a fine line, between recklessness and courage

It's about time, you understood which road to take

It's a fine line, your decision makes a difference

Get it wrong, you'll be making a big mistake



Come on brother, all is forgiven

We all cried when you were driven away

Come on brother, everything is better

Everything is better when you come home and stay



Whatever's more important to you

You've got to change what you wanna do

Whatever's more important to be

That's the view that you've gotta see



There is a long way, between chaos and creation

If you don't say, which one of these your gonna choose

It's a long way, and in every contradiction

Seems to say it's a game that your bound to loose



Come on brother, all is forgiven

We all cried when you were driven away

Come on brother, everything is better

Everything is better when you come home and stay



Come on back

Come on back

Come on back to me



It's a fine line

It's a fine line



Whatever's more important to you

You've got to choose what you wanna do

Whatever's more important to be

Well that's the view that you've gotta see



It's a fine line

It's a fine line

Whatever's more important to you (It's a fine line)

You got to choose what you want to do

Whatever's more important to be (It's a fine line)

That's the thing that you gotta see


HAWKWIND lyrics - Seven By Seven



(Brock)



Lost am I in this world

Of timelessness and woe

Can I find the doorways

Through which I must go

Is the key to this plane

Too much for me to try to gain

Is the passport to this

World my astral soul



7 signs rode on 7 stars

7 ways to find the long lost bards

7 days became 7 years

While Pocus laughed and called foul jeers

7 times he cursed the 7 tears

Each one became their 7 fears

What is lost is never gained again

I've cast the spell that eternity chains

No more to cry O' mortal soul

The astral path is now your fortuitous role



Lost am I in this world

Of timelessness and woe

Can I find the doorways

Through which I must go

Is the key to this plane

Too much for me to try to gain

Is the passport to this

World my astral soul

BONNIE TYLER lyrics - It's A Heartache



It's a heartache

Nothing but a heartache

Hits you when it's too late

Hits you when you're down



It's a fool's game

Nothing but a fools game

Standing in the cold rain

Feeling like a clown



It's a heartache

Nothing but a heartache

Love him till your arms break

Then he lets you down



It ain't right with love to share

When you find he doesn't care for you

It ain't wise to need someone

As much as I depended on you



It's a heartache

Nothing but a heartache

Hits you when it's too late

Hits you when you're down



It's a fool's game

Nothing but a fools game

Standing in the cold rain

Feeling like a clown



[Instrumental Interlude]



It ain't right with love to share

When you find he doesn't care for you

It ain't wise to need someone

As much as I depended on you



Oh, it's a heartache

Nothing but a heartache

Love him till your arms break

Then he lets you down



It's a fools game

Standing in the cold rain

Feeling like a clown

It's a heartache

Love him till your arms break

Then he lets you down

It's a fools game

Standing in the cold rain...


BEE GEES lyrics - Sincere Relation



George was born somewhere inside London town

Working as he grew for that extra pound.

Respected by all he married and made a home.

To give his children more then he had known.



But then he died with out an explanation.

He never lied, a very sincere relation.



Years before a fire sent him in the street.

It took him months of work to make ends meet.



But then he died without and explanation.

He never lied, a very sincere relation.


ALICE IN CHAINS lyrics - I Can't Have You Blues



I can't have you blues



I got the I can't have you, I can't have you blues

I can't have you, I can't have you blues

I can't have you, I can't have you...



Nothings the same, need my fix of you

A crack in the mirror, pictures split in two

I can't believe you slipped away

I been drinking too much cause I'm trying to forget your face

And if I always try to do, all the things you want me to

I've been letting myself down to an early grave

And if I always try to do, all the things you want me to

I've been letting myself down to an early grave



Nothing stays the same, in this game

I can't have you, I can't have you blues

I can't have you, I can't have you...



Nothings the same, need my fix of you

A crack in the mirror, pictures blank too

I can't believe you slipped away

I been drinking too much cause I'm trying to forget your face

And if I always try to do, all the things you want me to

I've been letting myself down to an early grave



Nothing stays the same, in this game

I can't have you, I can't have you blues

I can't have you, I can't have you blues

I can't have you, I can't have you blues

I can't have you, I can't have you blues

10CC lyrics - The Monkey And The Onion



See the monkey peel the onion

See the monkey cry

He can feel his tears are flowin'

But he don't know why

He continues peeling faster

`Til the onion is no more

Now at last his cryin's over

But all he had is gone

Whatever for

You and I are always chasing

Wild ambitions and far off dreams

As we run in all directions

Nothing's quite the joy it seems

If I tell you that I love you

Don't ask how much

And don't ask why

Have no doubt and ask no questions

Just believe it's not a lie

Never take my love for granted

But never put it to the test

Like the monkey and his onion

Too much investigation

You know the rest

You and I are always chasing

Wild ambitions and far off dreams

As we run in all directions

Nothing's quite the joy it seems

On that we could be contented

With the good things that we've gained

But in the end we're empty handed

Just because we need the world explained
