MANFRED MANN'S EARTH BAND lyrics - The Price I Pay
Out on the road
Late at night
The highway is so inviting
Since you said that we were through
I remember what you told me
I'm trying to drive away these blues
I can do a lot of things
But let me tell you girl
I can't make it on my own in this great big world
The price I pay for loving you
Deep in my mind
I'm trying to fight
This lonely feeling that I face tonight
Never thought that I would lose
I can't shake this awful feeling
I'll never stop loving you
I can do a lot of things
But let me tell you girl
I can't make it on my own in this great big world
The price I pay for loving you
Do I love her any more
Or is it loneliness that I feel
Do our hearts still beat as one
Or are we held together by the years
The price I pay for loving you
I'm goin' home
It's started rainin'
Got to find a phone, hope she's waiting
Gonna say I've been a fool
Put my head back on my shoulders
Take a little time and see things through
I can do a lot of things
But let me tell you girl
That I can't make it on my own in this great big world
The price I pay for loving you
The price I pay for loving you
PAUL MCCARTNEY lyrics - I'm In Love Again
Yes it's me and I'm in love again
Had no lovin since you know when
You know I love you
Yes I do
And I'm saving all my lovin just for you
Need your loving and I need it bad
Just like a dog when he's goin mad
Woo-e baby woo-o-e
Baby wont you give your love to me
Eenie meenie and miney-mo
Told you don't want me around no more
Woo-e baby woo-o-e
Baby don't you let your dog bite me
Yes it's me and I'm love again
Had no lovin since you know when
You know I love you
Yes I do
And I'm saving all my lovin just for you
Any minute and many more
Told you don't want me around no more
Woo-e baby woo-o-e
Baby don't you let your dog bite me

PAUL MCCARTNEY & WINGS lyrics - Some People Never Know
No one else will ever see
how much faith you have in me,
Only fools would disagree that it's so,
Some people never know.
Like a fool I'm faraway,
ev'ry night I hope and pray
I'll be coming home to stay and it's so,
Some people never know.
Some people can sleep at nightime,
believing that love is a lie.
I'm only a preson like you, love,
and who in the world can be right
all the right time.
I know I was wrong, make me right, right.
Only love can stand the test,
only you outshine the rest,
Only fools take the rest,
Only fools take second best, but it's so,
Some people never know.
JIMMY REED lyrics - You Upset My Mind
(Jimmy Reed / Ewart Abner)
I'm in love wit'cha baby, tryin' a-keep from cryin'
Now, I'm in love wit'cha baby, I'm tryin' a-keep from cryin'
Oh, you know I love you girl, oh you upset my mind
Well now, tell me if you love me, let me know in time
Now, tell me if you love me, let me know in time
Oh, you know I love you baby, girl, you upset my mind
I 'member when I'd takin' you by the arm,
An' we never stop a-walkin', till I walked ya home
Oh, I got to see ya baby, I don't even have a dime
I'm gonna walk to ya baby, girl, you upset my mind
JIMMY REED lyrics - Shoot Me Baby
(Jimmy Reed)
The woman, I love she won't treat me right
Leave in the mo'nin', stay out all night
I gotta shoot her, I gotta shoot her
I got shoot this woman, 'cause she won't treat me right
I give her my money, ev'rything I had
I get back home, find I'm feelin' bad
I gotta shoot her, I gotta shoot her
I gotta shoot that baby, 'cause she won't treat me right
Come on in this house, don't go
I'm gonna shoot you, out of this world
I'm gonna shoot you, I've got to shoot you
I've gotta shoot you woman, 'cause you won't treat me right
Come here baby, turn your light down low
I'm gonna shoot you, won't nobody know
I've done shot you, I've done shot you
I'm gonna shoot you baby, 'cause you won't treat me right

SLAYER lyrics - Disintegration / Free Money
(Eric "Joie" Mastrokolas/Brett Dodwell/Roy Hansen)
[by Verbal Abuse]
[Disintegration]
Disintegration you bastard
I've done overdose it doesn't mean shit
One time what about you it doesn't bother me a bit
My body is a weapon and my mind is decay
And all you stupid assholes are here to see me die
Disintegration [6x]
I don't need you now so why don't you go away
Your day will come real soon and your mind will be
And everyone will fuck you, you're such a fucking whore
And when I see you standing there
I just don't want no more
Disintegration [6x]
[Free Money]
I don't want your problem
Sopping all the time
I can't even go
When I don't even have the time
I want everything and every thing wants me
I want everything and every thing comes out of me
I want free money [4x]
Life is slavery working 9 to 5
Waste your time working
You might as well die
I want everything and every thing wants me
I want everything and every thing comes out of me
Life is slavery working 9 to 5
Waste your time working
You might as well die
THE SCORPIONS lyrics - White Dove
(Music: Presser, Adamis, Rudolf Schenker / Lyrics: Klaus Meine)
A place without a name
Under a burning sky
There's no milk and honey here
In the land of God
Someone holds a sign
It says we are human, too
And while the sun goes down
The world goes by
White dove
Fly with the wind
Take our hope under your wings
For the world to know
That hope will not die
Where the children cry
Waves, big like a house
They're stranded on a piece of wood
To leave it all behind
To start again
But instead of a new life
All they find is a door that's closed
And they keep looking for
A place called home
White dove
Fly with the wind
Take our hope under your wings
For the world to know
That hope will not die
Where the children cry
Na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na
Can anyone tell me why (can anyone tell me why)
The children of the world (children of the world)
Have to pay the price (pay the price)
And now you're telling me
You've seen it all before
I know that's right but still
It breaks my heart
Well, the golden lamb we've sent
Makes us feel better now
But you know it's just a drop
In a sea of tears
White dove
Fly with the wind
Take our hope under your wings
For the world to know
That hope will not die
Where the children cry
White dove
Fly with the wind
Take our hope under your wings
For the world to know
That hope will not die
Where the children cry
Na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na
JOHN HIATT lyrics - The Last Time
Time is runnin' out
Friends are too
The word is getting' out
It's all bad news
Scoundrels know my whereabouts
They recognize these pointy shoes
That's the last time
I turn my back on you
A friendly little game of cards
Aces wild
Your little life was just so hard
You had to act like a child
I recognize the queen of hearts
When she's sittin' in plain view
That's the last time
I turn my back on you
That's the last time
I turn my back on you
I kept waiting for a sign
That we could push it trough
There's a first time for everything
It was long overdue
That's the last time
I turn my back on you
I spent a lot of money
I spent a lot of time
Just to hear you call me honey
Sends little shivers up my spine
But after while it isn't funny
This twenty paces thing we do
So that's the last time
I turn my back on you
DEF LEPPARD lyrics - Mirror, Mirror (Look Into My Eyes)
Mirror mirror
Just watchin' with your eye of glass
You're just a fortune wheel
With something that I wanna ask
Mirror mirror
Got my fate lyin' in your hands
You're the fool, you're the juggler
Hangman and lover, you're not like no other
Take a look into my eyes
Tell me what you see
Take a look into my eyes
Tell me is it true?
Take a look into my eyes
Oh when I look at you
Take a look into my eyes
Tell me is it me?
Is it really me?
Mirror mirror
Gotta know just what you see
My crystal ball
You're lookin' so sly and so sleazy
Mirror mirror
Hangin' there with that crack in your eye
You make me stumble, make me blind
Time after time and line by line
[Repeat Chorus]
Mirror mirror
Oh tell me
You're the fool, you're the juggler
I ain't met a lover, you're like no other
Take a look into my eyes
Tell me what you see
Take a look into my eyes
Tell me is it true?
Take a look into my eyes
Oh it just can't last
Take a look into my eyes
Gonna have to smash the glass
Take a look into my eyes
Take a look into my eyes
Take a look
Take a look into my eyes
Oh yeah
Take a look into my eyes
Take a look into my eyes
Take a look into my eyes
Take a look into my eyes
Take a look
Take a look into my eyes
Look into my eyes
Take a look into my eyes
Tell me if it's me
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby
PULP lyrics - Being Followed Home
I'm being followed home,
I'm being followed home,
I don't know what for,
I don't know by whom.
The smell of your dress,
A face in the rain,
The pavement shines wet
In focus again.
Oh...
Oh...
Oh...
Oh.
In a dead seaside town
I tried to change my mind
For a well-balanced view
That was not mine to find.
Heaven knows, all your
Stars are on show, they last a lifetime,
And your hands leave their
Marks in the sand, they last for ever,
For ever.
It's clear to me:
You fit so perfectly
In a dimly lit room
Just inside of the sea.
His twisted face
Tells me to leave this place.
You know somewhere,
But I shouldn't go there, I shouldn't go there.
Heaven knows, all your
Stars are on show, they last a lifetime,
And your hands leave their
Marks in the sand, they last for ever.
They've followed me home -
The one with the dog-breath in the tattoo bar
Says something in a language that I don't uderstand.
The street stinks of piss and dead fish.
Jump a garden wall, landing on the slimy grass,
Air roaring in my lungs.
Hear him swear as he stumbles and falls behind me.
Down another cobbled street, footsteps bouncing off the walls.
Which way?
A bottle smashes.
The glint of a blade in the moonlight.
Someone laughs, the corners turned... and it's too late.
The first blow falls... then nothing.
I awoke on the beach sometime later
To a grey and sunless sky.
Your voice still slithers in my head,
I can't remember what you said.
I get to my feet, my body aches.
I make for the town for no-one's sake.
My mind is a blur, I feel so weak,
I see your reflection in the street.
"It's what you deserve, it's what you need.
Just like those stupid books you read."
I look to the sky, I see your face,
Collapse in the road I hear you say
I shouldn't go there, I shouldn't go there!
My wound's healing now
And your imprint fades,
Now just a pale scar
For five vanished days.
Your voice is so weak,
Your face is unclear,
Your body a legend from a forgotten year.
I've been followed home.
I've been followed home.
I've been followed home.
I've been followed home.
IRVING BERLIN lyrics - The Piccolino
By the Adriatic waters
Venetian sons and daughters
Are strumming a new tune upon their guitars
It was written by a Latin
A gondolier who sat in
His home out in Brooklyn and gazed at the stars
He sent his melody
Across the sea
To Italy
And we know
They wrote some words to fit
That catchy bit
And christened it
The Piccolino
And we know that it's the reason
Why everyone this season
Is strumming and humming a new melody
Come to the casino
And hear them play the Piccolino
Dance with your bambino
To the strains of the catchy Piccolino
Drink your glass of vino
And when you've had your plate of scalopino
Make them play the Piccolino
The catchy Piccolino
And dance to the strains of that new melody
The Piccolino
ICE CUBE lyrics - Pushin' Weight (Remix)
[Pushin' Weight Remix 12"]
[Clark Kent:]
What if I get that nigga Ice Cube to do another joint?
With my nigga Noreaga this time (Thugged Out)
And my nigga from Philly Lil' Gil?
Niggas don't know what the fuck's gon' happen next
Y'all niggas might just have problems, these niggas bout to shit
[Noreaga:]
Ay-yo, Iraq, shit, yo I own that land
With-a, Lord Amiya like the rest of the clan
My man Karate Kai, he like still in the can
Bless this, go to U. I. like the rest of the fam
These little niggas growin up, straight diggin they lives
Ain't really fuckin with the two, now they fuckin with five
But its, sad to see the hood mad at me
Cause I went from Nore to your majesty
The same niggas that I gruff'd wit and threw up with
And the same motherfuckers that I grew up with
Had free lunch with, played stickball with
Now-a-days they like Papi on some frontin shit
Fuck Noreaga, now I'm Melvin Flynt
Yo The Hustler, I ain't a player, I'm just a hustler
(Damn) Niggas that'll love ya, and straight touch ya
Yo its drastic, hit you with the glock plastic
What, run you over with the van-tastic
N-O-R-E, spit rhymes professionaly
Your boy, ?dunn gone dead? wanna run with me
Every pass you throw will get intercepted
International thug, you're just domestic
I drink Shmirnoff, alcohol infected. Its like...
[Chorus:] Ice Cube and Noreaga
[Noreaga: 'what what' in background continuously]
[Cube:]
I push rhymes like weight
I push rhymes like weight a yeah-yeah!
[3x]
[Ice Cube:]
I heard you stopped, can't rap ho
You niggas duck from the schrapnel
I'm pushin weight like a fat sew
Ghetto fab, I'm in the city again (be-atch)
Got you motherfuckers lookin shitty again (be-atch)
See that nigga Noreaga got them zig-zags
And our mags got you fags wearin shit bags
For life, nigga we could do life or do it right
Tonight, nigga, we can earn stripes and blast mics
Talk about the steppin off
A motherfucker ain't never been the underboss
Always I blaze in hallways, all days
You bitches ain't nothin but frugas'
Yeah-yeah, you better ask about me - Poppa Doc
And ask every freak you know: who got the cock?
So blaze one for the nation, I take vacation, offa conversation
Give niggas irritation, cause I don't rap about the nation
Get the catalogue, I battle dogs, and we'll see, only the strong will
Survive
Fuck The Source and the Vibe (Fuck em)
We don't ride, we drive-by
We Westside, nigga realize, we alive
So you can get beef, Lewinsky
Double-double say cheese, butt naked please
[Chorus]
[Gilly The Kid:]
Yo, Its a shame though, lil' niggas messin up the game, yo
Heard me spit and all a sudden got the same flow (Gilly rule!)
I die in the streets thats how the game go
I'ma tell you one more time, now let your chain go
I shoot to kill, you blast but you aim low
A ground shooter, me surrounded by troopers
Pretty women, gorgeous feet, with round hooters
You was born to fail, gonna die around losers
Bitch niggas get scared straight
But rich niggas cop a ninety-nine Benz September of ninety-eight
I ran up on you clowns with a nine on the waist
Run in your face, blot in your space, findin your safe
See you really are the fake we the cats that won't break
You niggas start snitchin at your day upstate
So on that note, when you come home, I'm pop you with the eight
At both of your kneecaps, where your weave be at (Damn)
You little sissy, on the streets, you was real pretty
Went to jail, Got A Story To Tell, now you Biggie?
See I'm the sure shots, you cats is the maybes
I'm the real thing and you niggas is frugasis
Crazy fake diamonds, fake shinin
And if you got less than nine and a half, you fake grindin
Name other trio thats fuckin with us rhymin
Gil, Cube, and Nore
A whole different story
[Chorus]
STEVE EARLE lyrics - Cry Night After Night
(Stacey Earle, Mark Stuart, Steve Earle)
I almost hate to go back home
Somebody's died every time I've been gone
I ain't saying I don't want to know
Just that it brings me down so low
I was needing more out of life
I forgot how to be your wife
Everybody's settlin' for settlin' down
Hear the jingle of the chains rattling around
I never really gave much thought
I'm sure its my own fault
I just figured after years gone by
All them tears would have run dry
I go out night after night
And I wonder if I'm treating myself right
And I think about the ones I left behind
When I cry night after night
Here's to the ones who worked all along
Living in fear of being alone
Well I started out early in life
I made mine and I knew I
Could never really go back home
That's the same as being alone
Sure, I could always turn it around
That'd be the same as shooting me down
IRON MAIDEN lyrics - Hallowed Be Thy Name
(Harris)
I'm waiting in my cold cell when the bell begins to chime
Reflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time
Cos at 5 o'clock they take me to the Gallows Pole
The sands of time for me are running low
When the priest comes to read me the last rites
I take a look through the bars at the last sights
Of a world that has gone very wrong for me
Can it be there's been some sort of an error
Hard to stop the surmounting terror
Is it really the end not some crazy dream
Somebody please tell me that I'm dreaming
It's not easy to stop from screaming
But words escape me when I try to speak
Tears they flow but why am I crying
After all am I not afraid of dying
Don't believe that there never is an end
As the guards march me out to the courtyard
Someone calls from a cell "God be with you"
If there's a God then why has he let me die?
As I walk all my life drifts before me
And though the end is near I'm not sorry
Catch my soul cos it's willing to fly away
Mark my words please believe my soul lives on
Please don't worry now that I have gone
I've gone beyond to see the truth
When you know that your time is close at hand
Maybe then you'll begin to understand
Life down there is just a strange illusion
JOAN ARMATRADING lyrics - Living For You
If you could only see
Just what you mean to me
You would never ever
Pass me by
You would take my number
And you'd call me up
You would never ever make me cry
'Cos you know
That I'm living for you baby
You know
That it's you
It's you or die
You know
That I'm living for you baby
And I can't give in
Give up on your love
If you could only see
Just what you do to me
You would never ever
Pass me by
You'd forget the others
I'd be your favourite lover
You would never want to
Leave my side
'Cos you know
That I'm living for you baby
You know
That it's you
It's you or die
You know
That I'm living for you baby
And I can't give in
Give up on your love
Your love has got
Me in a spin
I turn around
And I begin again
Your love has got
Me in a spin
I turn around
And I begin again
I just can't give in
Give up on your love
You know
That I'm living for you baby
You know
That it's you
It's you or die
You know
That I'm living for you baby
And I can't give in
Give up on your love
If you could only see
Just what you do to me
You would never ever
Pass me by
Don't pass me by
Don't pass me by
Don't pass me by
Don't pass me by
You know
That I'm living for you baby
You know
That it's you
It's you or die
You know
That I'm living for you baby
And I can't give in
Give up on your love

NAZARETH lyrics - Little Part Of You
I don't want to take you prisoner
Or do it against your will
I wouldn't ever take you over
Only want a little part of you
Only want a little part of you
I would never leave you stranded
Alone on some point of view
Couldn't ever hold you under
Only want a little part of you
Only want a little part of you
I know that the world
All it's diamonds and it's pearls
Could never buy you
Could never even try to
Wouldn't ever bring you sadness
Leave you standing in the rain
Never thought you would be easy
Only want a little part of you
Only want a little part of you
I know that the world
All it's diamonds and it's pearls
Could never buy you
Could never even try to
DONNA SUMMER lyrics - Autumn Changes
This love of ours is gradually fading
Something is wrong, or somebody's faking
Autumn changes
Shifting phases
Autumn changes
Turning stages
Surely something can help to patch it up
Too many nights sitting here waiting
Too many days hoping and praying
Something inside seems to be dying
Most of the time I just feel like crying
Autumn changes
Shifting phases
Autumn changes
Turning stages
Surely something can help to patch it up
Oh yes we can, sure we can
Sure we can, sure we can
Autumn changes
Shifting phases
Autumn changes
Turning stages
Surely something can help to patch it up
Oh, yes we can, sure we can
Sure we can, sure we can
BRIAN WILSON lyrics - Love And Mercy
I was sittin' in a crummy movie with my hands on my chin
Oh the violence that occurs seems like we never win
Love and mercy that's what you need tonight
So, love and mercy to you and your friends tonight
I was lyin' in my room and the news came on T. V.
A lotta people out there hurtin' and it really scares me
Love and mercy that's what you need tonight
So, love and mercy to you and your friends tonight
I was standin' in a bar and watchin' all the people there
Oh the lonliness in this world well it's just not fair
Oooooo-ooooooo-ooooooo
Oooooo-ooooooo-ooooooo-ooooooo-ooooooo
Ahhhhh-ahhhhhh-ahhhhhh-ohhhhhh-ohhhhhh
Hey love and mercy that's what you need tonight
So, love and mercy to you and your friends tonight
Love and mercy that's what you need tonight
Love and mercy tonight
Love and mercy
CHICAGO lyrics - Forever
Every day it seems we hear the same old story.
Every day there's lovers giving up on love.
People say it's just a fact of modern living.
All around us, people fall in love and marry.
Then we hear they're breaking up, and wonder why?
Did they mean it when they said it was forever?
All I know is what I feel.
[Chorus:]
Forever
Is a long, long time.
Longer than we ever realize.
Forever
Is a long, long time.
I'm gonna love you the rest of my life.
Forever.
Every day I spend with you, I call it lucky,
Every night we touch and speak the words of love.
Did I mean it when I said it was forever?
All I know is what I feel.
[Chorus]
I'm gonna love you the rest of my life
Forever

STEVE WINWOOD lyrics - Freedom Overspill
(Winwood/Hooker/Fleming)
Keep on talking all you want
Well you don't waste a minute of time
Who cares, who knows what's true
Coffee and tears the whole night through
Burning up on midnight oil
And it's come right back on you
Freedom Overspill
Freedom Overspill
Force of habit, you could say
The way they talk you're talking away
Who cares, who knows what's true
Your wounded pride is burning you up
Burning up on midnight oil
And it's come right back on you
Freedom Overspill
Freedom Overspill
You're sounding good to me now
Keep talking on
I want to hear the worst
You got no right going around
Talking 'bout the things that you do
Talking 'bout the things that you do
Keep on talking all you want
Well you don't waste a minute of time
Who cares, who knows what's true
Coffee and tears the whole night through
Burning up on midnight oil
And it's come right back on you
Freedom Overspill
Freedom Overspill
Freedom Overspill
Freedom Overspill
You're sounding good to me now
Keep talking on
I want to hear the worst
You got no right going around
Talking 'bout the things that you do
Talking 'bout the things you do
Force of habit, you could say
The way they talk you're talking away
Who cares, who knows what's true
Your wounded pride is burning you up
Burning up on midnight oil
And it's come right back on you
Freedom Overspill
Freedom Overspill

IRVING BERLIN lyrics - Love, You Didn't Do Right By Me
Love, you didn't do right by me
You planned a romance that just hadn't a chance
And I'm through
Love, you didn't do right by me
I'm back on the shelf and I'm blaming myself
But it's you
My one love affair didn't get anywhere from the start
To send me a Joe who had winter and snow in his heart
Wasn't smart
Love, you didn't do right by me
As they say in the song
"You done me wrong!"
[Alternate line for male:]
To send me a Jane who had thunder and rain in her heart

TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS lyrics - I Should Have Known It
I shoulda known it
I shoulda seen
Leave it to you
To treat me mean
Every promise was just a runaround
I shoulda known it
Yeah you're gonna let me down
Well it's over now you see
It's the last time you're gonna hurt me
I shoulda known it
Hard to believe
It was all right there
In front of me
Sold down the river
Left for dead
Yeah you're puttin' ideas
In another man's head
And it's over now you see
It's the last time you're gonna hurt me
Thanks for nothin'
Yeah thanks a lot
Go ahead baby
Take all I got
And it's over now ya see
It's the last time you're gonna hurt me
It's the last time you're gonna hurt me
PRINCE lyrics - New World
New world [x4]
When the sharpest vibration
Saves U from obliteration
The intelligence of your bed reacts
Covering U head 2 toe with an air-filled sack
When the lines blur every boy and girl
How we gonna make it in this brave new world?
Love 4 one another - New world
Love 4 one another - New world
When U wanna find some isolation
But the tracker U got from vaccination (Keeps playin')
Keeps playin' - "U'll never walk alone" (Over and over)
They're always listening, especially on the phone
When the lines blur every boy and girl
How we gonna make it in this brave new world?
Love 4 one another - New world
Love 4 one another - New world
Wait a minute
New world
Did U hear about the new pill? It feels like sex!
Guaranteed 2 thrill with no ill side-effects
A pill that will stop the wrinkles, a pill that will stop the pain
A pill that will make a baby never seek political gain
What's it all 4 when U can alter biology?
Who or what, then my friend, will U and I be? [x2]
When the sharpest vibration
Saves U from obliteration
When the melting pot stirs, how U gonna take it?
When U can't tell him from her, how U gonna fake it?
When the lines blur every boy and girl
How U gonna make it in this brave new world?
Love 4 one another - New world
Love 4 one another (How U gonna take it?)
(How U gonna fake it?)
Love 4 one another (How U gonna take it?)
(New world) New world
New world
THE ROLLING STONES lyrics - Saint Of Me
(Jagger/Richards)
Saint Paul the persecutor
Was a cruel and sinful man
Jesus hit him with a blinding light
And then his life began
I said yeah
I said yeah
Augustin knew temptation
He loved women, wine and song
And all the special pleasures
Of doing something wrong
I said yeah
I said yeah
I said yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
You'll never make a saint of me
Oh yeah, oh yeah
You'll never make a saint of me
And could you stand the torture
And could you stand the pain
Could you put your faith in Jesus
When you're burning in the flames
And I do believe in miracles
And I want to save my soul
And I know that I'm a sinner
I'm gonna die here in the cold
I said yes, I said yeah
I said yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
You'll never make a saint of me
Oh yeah, oh yeah
You'll never make a saint of me
Oh yeah, oh yeah
You'll never make a saint of me
Oh yeah, oh yeah
You'll never make a saint of me
I thought I heard an angel cry
I thought I saw a teardrop falling from his eye
John the Baptist was a martyr
But he stirred up Herod's hate
And Salome got her wish
To have him served up on a plate
I said yes
I said yeah
I said yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
You'll never make a saint of me
Oh yeah, oh yeah
You'll never make a saint of me
Oh yeah, oh yeah
You'll never make a saint of me
Oh yeah, oh yeah
You'll never make a saint of me
I thought I heard an angel cry
I thought I saw a teardrop falling from his eye
I thought I saw an angel cry
You'll never make a saint of me
You'll never make a saint of me
LENNY KRAVITZ lyrics - California
I was converted to the other side
From the day I'd gotten there
I met a girl who took me on a ride
I was young I had no cares
When I moved to California
California
She played me records I had never heard
While we toked on purple hairs
Who, Zeppelin, Beatles
Kiss, The Rolling Stones
While we played guitars in air
When I moved to California
California
California
California love!
Venice Beach and P. O.P.
Station 26 was free
Jeff Ho and Horizons west
Dogtown Skates they were the best
Hang Ten, O. P. were the brands
Don't forget the two-tone Vans
I miss the Apple and my schoolyard boys
Nothing ever will compare
But now I skateboard
With my surfer girl
And we really are a pair
When I moved to California
California
California
California love!
RUSH lyrics - The Fountain Of Lamenth V. Bacchus Plateau
Another endless day
Silhouettes of grey
Another glass of wine
Drink with eyes that shine
To days without that chill at morning
Nights time out of mind
Chorus
Draw another goblet
From the cask of '43
Crimson misty memory
Hazy glimpse of me
Give me back my wonder
I've something more to give
I guess it doesn't matter
There's not much more to live
Another foggy dawn
The mountain almost gone
Another doubtful fear
The road is not so clear
My soul grows ever weary
And the end is ever near
Chorus

JOAN ARMATRADING lyrics - Water With The Wine
Met him on a Monday
And he said he loved me so
Walked me to my door
Before I knew it to my living room
I thought there was no need for worry
When he took me in his arms
Drank some whisky
Hung his coat upon the stand
That's when the music started
I heard the light switch click
I stumbled on a lost shoe
The fever's starting
This man was getting hot
I got no strength to make him stop
I guess it's too late
But I'll know next time
To mix some water with the wine
The sun came pouring in at five
Upon my face
I felt the taste of last night's love
Upon my lips
I wasn't sure if I had dreamt it
Or had not
But there across the pillow was the face
I had forgot
That's when he said he loved me
Could be the truth this time
He put his arms about me
Fever's starting
This man was getting hot
I got no strength to make him stop
I guess it's too late
But I'll know next time
To mix some water with the wine

KANSAS lyrics - Taking In The View
(Steve Morse / Steve Walsh)
The world began to change the children moved and they had children
It was all arranged you couldn't live there anymore
All you had was that old place in the middle of the path of progress
So they took the space and put the ceiling on the floor
In one of the rooms all the walls were blue
It was hidden so well that no one knew
Just the place for taking in the view
The view of the sea crisp and clear and never ending
There your soul ran free there you spirit soared
The view took you away to the boundaries of imagination
Back to yesterday back to once before
In one of the rooms all the walls were blue
A mysterious space without a clue
Just the place for taking in the view
Long lives need no fortune
Hard lives need no fame
Young lives seek their freedom
And old lives seek the same
The world began to change and without a word of explanation
Something very strange started beckoning to you
When they came to move your things you had packed a suitcase full of memories
Nothing else to bring except a different point of view
In one of the rooms all the walls were blue
A mysterious space without a clue
Just the place for taking in the view
GIPSY KINGS lyrics - La Quiero
La quiero
Si la verda a mi me quieres
Que por te amor nunca yo
Voy hablar
Por esos yo perdonare
La quiero
Si la verda a mi me quieres
Que por amor nunca yo voy hablar
Por esos yo perdonare
La quiero
La quiero esta mujer
A mi no me queria
Que todos la puedo ver
La quiero
Si la verda a mi me quieres
Que por te amor nunca yo
Voy hablar
Por esos yo perdonare
La quiero
Si la verda a mi me quieres
Que por amor nunca yo voy hablar
Por esos yo perdonare

Well I'm just outta school

NICK CAVE AND THE BAD SEEDS lyrics - O'Malley's Bar
I am tall and I am thin
Of an enviable hight
And I've been known to be quite handsome
In a certain angle and in certain light
Well I entered into O'Malley's
Said, "O'Malley I have a thirst"
O'Malley merely smiled at me
Said "You wouldn't be the first"
I knocked on the bar and pointed
To a bottle on the shelf
And as O'Malley poured me out a drink
I sniffed and crossed myself
My hand decided that the time was nigh
And for a moment it slipped from view
And when it returned, it fairly burned
With confidence anew
Well the thunder from my steely fist
Made all the glasses jangle
When I shot him, I was so handsome
It was the light, it was the angle
Huh! Hmmmmmm
"Neighbours!" I cried, "Friends!" I screamed
I banged my fist upon the bar
"I bear no grudge against you!"
And my dick felt long and hard
"I am the man for which no God waits
But for which the whole world yearns
I'm marked by darkness and by blood
And one thousand powder-burns"
Well, you know those fish with the swollen lips
That clean the ocean floor
When I looked at poor O'Malley's wife
That's exactly what I saw
I jammed the barrel under her chin
And her face looked raw and vicious
Her head it landed in the sink
With all the dirty dishes
Her little daughter Siobhan
Pulled beers from dusk till down
And amongst the townfolk she was a bit of a joke
But she pulled the best beer in town
I swooped magnificent upon her
As she sat shivering in her grief
Like the Madonna painted on the church-house wall
In whale's blood and banana leaf
Her throat it crumbled in my fist
And I spun heroically around
To see Caffrey rising from his seat
I shot that mother fucker down
Mmmmmmmmmm Yeah Yeah Yeah
"I have no free will", I sang
As I flew about the murder
Mrs. Richard Holmes, she screamed
You really should have heard her
I sang and I laughed, I howled and I wept
I panted like a pup
I blew a hole in Mrs. Richard Holmes
And her husband stupidly stood up
As he screamed, "You are an evil man"
And I paused a while to wonder
"If I have no free will then how can I
Be morally culpable, I wonder"
I shot Richard Holmes in the stomach
And gingerly he sat down
And he whispered weirdly, "No offense"
And then lay upon the ground
"None taken", I replied to him
To which he gave a little cough
With blazing wings I neatly aimed
And blew his head completely off
I've lived in this town for thirty years
And to no-one I am a stranger
And I put new bullets in my gun
Chamber upon chamber
And I turned my gun on the bird-like Mr. Brookes
I thought of Saint Francis and his sparrows
And as I shot down the youthful Richardson
It was St. Sebastian I thought of, and his arrows
Hhhhhhhhhh Mmmmmmmmmmmm
I said, "I want to introduce myself
And I am glad that all you came"
And I leapt upon the bar
And shouted out my name
Well Jerry Bellows, he hugged his stool
Closed his eyes and shrugged and laughed
And with an ashtray as big as a fucking really big brick
I split his head in half
His blood spilled across the bar
Like a steaming scarlet brook
And I knelt at it's edge on the counter
Wiped the tears away and looked
Well, the light in there was blinding
Full of God and ghosts of truth
I smiled at Henry Davenport
Who made an attempt to move
Well, from the position I was standing
The strangest thing I ever saw
The bullet entered through the top of his chest
And blew his bowels out on the floor
Well I floated down the counter
Showing no remorse
I shot a hole in Kathleen Carpenter
Recently divorced
But remorse i felt and remorse I had
It clung to every thing
From the raven's hair upon my head
To the feathers on my wings
Remorse sqeezed my hand in it's fradulent claw
With it's golden hairless chest
And I glided through the bodies
And killed the fat man Vincent West
Who sat quietly in his chair
A man become a child
And I raised the gun up to his head
Executioner-style
He made no attempt to resist
So fat and dull and lazy
"Did you know I lived in your street?" I said
And he looked at me as though I were crazy
"O", he said, "I had no idea"
And he grew as quiet as a mouse
And the roar of the pistol when it went off
Near blew that hat right off the house
Hmmmmmm Uh Uh
Well, I caught my eye in the mirror
And gave it a long and loving inspection
"There stands some kind of man", I roared
And there did, in the reflection
My hair combed back like a raven's wing
My muscles hard and tight
And curling from the business end of my gun
Was a query-mark of cordite
Well I spun to the left, I spun to the right
And I spun to the left again
"Fear me! Fear me! Fear me!"
But no one did cause they were dead
Huh! Hmmmmmmmmm
And then there were the police sirens wailing
And a bull-horn squelched and blared
"Drop your weapons and come out
With your hands held in the air"
Well, I checked the chamber of my gun
Saw I had one final bullet left
My hand, it looked almost human
As I raised it to my head
"Drop your weapon and come out!
Keep your hands above your head!"
I had one one long hard think about dying
And did exactly what they said
There must have been fifty cops out there
In a circle around O'Malley's bar
"Don't shoot", I cried, "I'm a man unarmed!"
So they put me in their car
And they sped me away from that terrible scene
And I glanced out of the window
Saw O'Malley's bar, saw the cops and the cars
And I started counting on my fingers
Aaaaaah One Aaaaaah Two Aaaaaah Three Aaaaaaah Four
O'Malley's bar O'Malley's bar

THE ROLLING STONES lyrics - Honky Tonk Women
(M. Jagger/K. Richards)
(Well all right
Well all right
Well all right
Wooh
Well all right
Charlie's good tonight, isn't 'e?)
I met a gin soaked barroom queen in Memphis
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride (yeah)
She had to heave me right across her shoulder
Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind (no)
It's the Honky Tonk Women (yeah)
Give me, give me, give me the honky tonk blues
Strollin' on the boulevards of Paris
As naked as the day that I will die
The sailors they're so charming there in Paris
But they just don't seem to sail you off my mind (yeah)
It's the Honky Tonk women
Give me, give me, give me the honky tonk blues
(yeah)
It's the Honky Tonk women, yeah
And give me, give me, give me the honky tonk blues (my my)
It's the Honky Tonk women, yeah
And give me, give me, give me the honky tonk blues

BLACK SABBATH lyrics - Psychophobia
Mortal Eyes, Looking Through A Veil Of Dreams,
Hypnotised, An Ever Living Soul With Wings.
Think You're God, But You Never Had Control,
Think You're Loved But There's No One There At All...
My Colours All Ran Dry, And Now I See The World In Black And White,
It's Too Late Now, It's Time To Kiss The Rainbow Goodbye.
Poison Tears Running From A Palsied Face,
Satan Nears, Descending On The Human Race.
Think You're God, Don't You Wish You Had Control,
Think You're Loved But There's No One There At All...
Listen To The Wind, Hear The Gospel Blow.
Tell Me That You Don't Hear What I'm Hearing And I Will Let You Go.
Look Up To The Sky, Put Your Trust In Me,
Tell Me That You Ain't Feelin What I'm Feelin And I Will Set You Free.
Look Into The Flame, See The Embers Glow,
Tell Me That You Don't See What I'm Seein And I Will Let You Go
Look Up To The Sky, Put Your Trust In Me,
Tell Me That You Ain't Feelin What I'm Feelin And I Will Set You Free.
Look Into The Flame, See The Embers Glow,
Tell Me That You Don't See What I'm Seein And I Will Let You Go
Taste The Holy Blood, Running From My Veins
Tell Me That You Ain't Feelin What I'm Feelin And I'll Take Away The Pain
Yes I Will Now, Oh Yes I Will, It's Time To Kiss The Rainbow Goodbye.
SHANE MACGOWAN AND THE POPES lyrics - I'll Be Your Handbag
Skinheads, coppers, all cock sucker, punks
Me I'm recovering from a nine day drunk
Hands of a bar maid
Bringing off a bald headed monk
All this and more for just one line of junk
I'll be your handbag
But I'd rather be your negligee
I'll be your handbag
You blow my mind away
You blow my mind away
Don't snatch me please
Don't snatch me please
Don't snatch me please
Don't snatch me please
Don't snatch me please
Don't snatch me please
Don't snatch me please
Don't snatch me please
So cold that I could freeze
Now you got me on my knees
I'll be your handbag
Be right next to you
I'll be your handbag
Cause I belong to you
Cause I belong to you
HELLOWEEN lyrics - See The Night
Born into a neighborhood that ain't exactly rich
Never knew his father and his mother was a bitch
Oh no
Didn't have a place to go
Grown up in the streets
He learned to take just what he needs
Violence and crime the only answer he believes
Oh no
Your emotions you don't show
How can you ever give up
When you never were scared?
How can you ever forgive
Without learning to blame?
See the night
That's where you're living
Feel the dark
That seems to follow you
See the stars
I see you crying
See the stars
You wished that one of them just shines for you
After you're gone
Unemployed and full of hate
You're dealing with cocaine
One day you will end up with a needle in your brain
Oh no
As you slowly go insane
How can you ever be good
When you don't see a reason?
How can you trust an old friend
When you don't even care for one?
See the night
That's where you're living
Feel the dark
That seems to follow you
See the stars
I see you crying
See the stars
You wished that one of them just shines for you
After you're gone
All you know is what you see
You see society is treating you bad
No more visions, no more hope
Your future is a cold, cold cell
I send you to hell
Falling so deep into darkness
Crawling so deep in the dark
Give me a chance to regret what I've done
Only if I can explain
See the night
That's where you're living
Feel the dark
That seems to follow you
See the stars
I see you crying
See the stars
You wished that one of them just shines for you
After you're gone
ELTON JOHN lyrics - Burning Buildings
It used to be a sweet sensation
No price too high for love
Now I pay for this bitter taste
And the price is not enough
Such cruel sport for your kicks
Such hard knocks on my heart
How long before the pain ends
Tell me where living starts
And lovers leap off burning buildings
Waking up on a sky high wire
Desperation leaves us clinging
On the edge of a house on fire
Lovers leap off burning buildings
Live our life on borrowed time
Every flame that ever moved you
Touched your lips but never mine
Lovers leap off burning buildings
No room for conversation
Cold stares and angry words
Fall in pieces from our faces
We read "do not disturb"
Some lovers just go hungry
Others beg for just a bite
You use me under pressure
To whet your appetite

ALICE COOPER lyrics - You Drive Me Nervous
Yeah, you seem so civilized
Your mama's tryin' to run your life
Your daddy's tryin' to pick your wife
Oh no
Yeah, you run around with all that hair
They just don't like those rags you wear
You say I'm gonna pack up my stuff
I'm gonna run away
And then she said
You drive me nervous, nervous
And then I said
You drive me nervous, nervous, nervous, oh
Nervous, nervous, nervous, nervous, whoa-oh-oh
Aaah
You're out of state
You're thrown in jail
You ain't got the bread to pay the bail
Your mom and papa come up and said
"Honey, where did we fail?"
And then you scream
You drive me nervous, nervous
And then I screamed
You drive me nervous, nervous, nervous, oh
Nervous, nervous, nervous, nervous, whoa-oh-oh
You drive me n-n-n-nervous
N-n-n-nervous
You drive me nervous
Whoa

KISS lyrics - Forever
I gotta tell you what I'm feelin' inside, I could lie to myself, but it's true
There's no denying when I look in your eyes, girl I'm out of my head over you
I lived so long believin' all love is blind
But everything about you is tellin' me this time
Chorus:
It's forever, this time I know and there's no doubt in my mind
Forever, until my life is thru, girl I'll be lovin' you forever
I hear the echo of a promise I made
When you're strong you can stand on your own
But those words grow distant as I look at your face
No, I don't wanna go it alone
I never thought I'd lay my heart on the line
But everything about you is tellin' me this time
chorus - yeah!
I see my future when I look in your eyes
It took your love to make my heart come alive
Cos I lived my life believin' all love is blind
But everything about you is tellin' me this time
chorus repeats 2x

JACKSON BROWNE lyrics - We're Off To See The Wizard
(Harold Arlen & E. Y. "Yip" Harburg)
[From the soundtrack album The Wizard of Oz in Concert: Dreams Do Come True]
We're off to see the Wizard,
the wonderful Wizard of Oz.
We hear he is a wiz of a wiz
If ever a wiz there was.
If ever, oh ever, a wiz there was,
the Wizard of Oz is one because,
because, because, because, because, because-
because of the wonderful things he does.
We're off to see the Wizard,
the wonderful Wizard of Oz.
FREDDIE MERCURY lyrics - Made In Heaven
(Freddie Mercury)
I'm taking my ride with destiny, willing to play my part
Living with painful memories, loving with all my heart
Made in heaven, made in heaven, it was all meant to be (yeah)
Made in heaven, made in heaven
That's what they say, can't you see
That's what everybody says to me, can't you see, oh
I know I know I know that it's true
Yes it's really meant to be, deep in my heart
I'm having to learn to pay the price, they're turning me upside down
Waiting for possibilities, don't see too many around
Made in heaven, yes made in heaven, it's for all to see
Made in heaven, made in heaven
That's what everybody says, everybody says to me
It was really meant to be, oh can't you see
Yeah everybody everybody says, yes it was meant to be
Yeah yeah
When stormy weather comes around, it was made in heaven
When sunny skies break through behind the clouds
I wish it could last forever, yeah
Wish it could last forever, for ever
Made in heaven
I'm playing my role in history, looking to find my goal
Taking in all this misery but giving it all my soul
Made in heaven, made in heaven, it was all meant to be
Made in heaven, made in heaven
That's what everybody says, wait and see
It was really meant to be, so plain to see, yeah
Everybody everybody everybody tells me so
Yes it was plain to see, yes it was meant to be
Written in the stars
JOHN LEE HOOKER lyrics - No Substitute
(John Lee Hooker)
I wanna tell you a true story
The facts of life
'cause I know all about it,
'cause I been through it a many times
Ain't no substitute, there's no substitute,
Substitute for love
When your woman gone,
There's nothin' else can,
Can take her place
But there's no substitute, substitute for love
No, no
Love will make you gamble
Love will make you drink
Make you stay out all night long,
Lookin' for love
But there's no, no substitute,
Substitute, substitute for love
I wanna tell you a story,
True, true, true story about love
Many times, many times, over 'n over, over in life,
So many people have tried, tried, to get a substitute
An' it just don't work, work on love
You may not be good looking,
You may not be so fine
But love, love, love love, love, love,
Is a burning thing
It's a burning thing
I know, I know, I know, I know,
I been down, down, in a ring of fire
Lookin' for a love,
I couldn't find, I couldn't find a substitute,
Uh, for love, for love, I cried, cried
I cried, cried but it just wasn't there,
Just wasn't there

DORO PESCH lyrics - You Got Me Singing
There's been many who got me talking
When I didn't have any much to say
And there's some who got me walking
That extra mile down life's highway
And there's been a few who got me smiling
When all I felt was the deepest blue
And I've come very close to falling in love
Maybe a time or two
[Chorus:]
But Baby, yeah, Baby
You got me singing
You got me singing
You got me singing
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
When you're away I get so lonely, lonely
But I hold back all of my tears
'Cause somewhere you're out there and thinking of me
And your spirit is still here
[Chorus]
Baby, yeah baby
You're the one who got me singing, yeah
I love you
You're the one who got me singing, ooh
I love you
You're the one who got me singing, ooh
I love you [7x]
CAT STEVENS lyrics - Silent Sunlight
Silent sunlight, welcome in
There is work I must now begin
All my dreams have blown away
And the children want to play
They'll soon remember things to do
When the heart is young
And the night is done
And the sky is blue
Morning songbird, sing away
Lend a tune to another day
Bring your wings and choose a roof
Sing a song of love and truth
We'll soon remember if you do
When all things were tall
And our friends were small
And the world was new
Sleepy horses, heave away
Put your backs to the golden hay
Don't ever look behind at the work you've done
For your work has just begun
There'll be the evening in the end
but till that time arrives
You can rest your eyes
And begin again
EMMYLOU HARRIS lyrics - The Pearl
(Emmylou Harris)
O the dragons are gonna fly tonight
They're circling low and inside tonight
It's another round in the losing fight
Out along the great divide tonight
We are aging soldiers in an ancient war
Seeking out some half remembered shore
We drink our fill and still we thirst for more
Asking if there's no heaven what is this hunger for?
Our path is worn our feet are poorly shod
We lift up our prayer against the odds
And fear the silence is the voice of God
And we cry Allelujah Allelujah
We cry Allelujah
Sorrow is constant and the joys are brief
The seasons come and bring no sweet relief
Time is a brutal but a careless theif
Who takes our lot but leaves behind the grief
It is the heart that kills us in the end
Just one more old broken bone that cannot mend
As it was now and ever shall be amen
And we cry Allelujah Allelujah
We cry Allelujah
So there'll be no guiding light for you and me
We are not sailors lost out on the sea
We were always headed toward eternity
Hoping for a glimpse of Gaililee
Like falling stars from the universe we are hurled
Down through the long loneliness of the world
Until we behold the pain become the pearl
Cryin? Allelujah Allelujah
We cry Allelujah
And we cry Allelujah Allelujah
We cry Allelujah

SEALS & CROFTS lyrics - Goodbye Old Buddies
(Lyrics and music by Parker McGee, 1975)
Where it started, can't even remember, just one day you were there.
Funny little girl in your tied-dyes and cutoffs, wondering who you were.
Well I was gonna blow you clear down to Miami with my cool and social art.
But I ended up awkward and I guess in the struggle I must have lost my heart.
So goodbye old buddies, and goodbye runnin' wild.
I'm makin' some room for a certain young lady, and I guess she's gonna stay awhile.
Walks in the country, sleepin' bag weekends, and fumblin' in the night.
Now look at me plannin' my life 'round this stranger, such a sorry sight.
So goodbye old buddies, and goodbye runnin' wild.
I'm makin' some room for a certain young lady, and I guess she's gonna stay awhile.
Now here we sit in our only night bedroom, all legal and settled down.
Talkin' 'bout light bills and diapers and t. v., and watchin' this world spin around.
So goodbye old buddies, and goodbye runnin' wild.
I'm makin' some room for a certain young lady, and I guess she's gonna stay,
I guess she's gonna stay. She's gotten all moved in, for awhile.
ANNIE HASLAM lyrics - Hark! The Herald Angels Sing
Hark! The herald angels sing
'Glory to the newborn King;'
Peace on earth and mercy mild;
God and sinners reconciled.'
Joyful, all ye nations rise,
Join the triumph in skies;
With angelic host proclaim,
'Christ is born in Bethlehem!'
Hark the herald angels sing,
'Glory to the newborn King.'
Christ by highest heav'n adored,
Christ the everlasting Lord:
Late in time, behold Him come,
Offspring of a virgin's womb.
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see,
Hail th'incarnate Deity!
Pleased as man with men to dwell,
Jesus our Immanuel.
Hark! the herald angels sing,
'Glory to the newborn King.'
Hail the heav'n born Prince of Peace!
Hail the Sun of righteousness!
Light and life to all He brings,
Ris'n with healing in His wings.
Mild He lays His glory by,
Born that man no more may die,
Born to raise the sons of earth,
Born to give them second birth.
Hark! the herald angels sing,
'Glory to the newborn King.'
Come, Desire of nations, come,
Fix in us Thy humble home;
Oh, to all Thyself impart,
Formed in each believing heart!
Hark! the herald angels sing,
Glory to the new-born King;
Peace on earth and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled!
Hark! the herald angels sing,
Glory to the new-born King!
HARRY CONNICK, JR. lyrics - Maybe
Maybe far away, or maybe real near by.
He may be pouring her coffee,
She may be Straightning his tie.
Maybe in a house all hidden by a hill,
She's sittin' playin' Piano,
He's sittin' payin' a bill.
Betcha they're young.
Betcha they're smart,
Bet they collect things like ashtrays and art.
Betcha there good.
Why shouldn't they be?
Their one mistake was giving up me.
So maybe now it's time,
And maybe when I wake,
They'll be there calling me baby,
Maybe.
MOTLEY CRUE lyrics - Welcome To The Numb
Mister, mister push button junkie lookin for some dirt to buy.
Landslide, it's a corporation landslide waitin for a kiss from an atom bomb.
This situation's critical, my back's against the wall but we like it.
You're walkin' in our sleep and I can't feel at all.
I said, "Hey man, just gimmie some truth."
See what you wanna see, feel what you wanna feel.
I don't wanna know, I don't wanna deal, I don't wanna be any part of your stupid
mother fucker machine.
Do what ya wanna do, kill if ya gotta kill, 'cause I just don't believe your point
of view.
Welcome to the numb, fools.
Welcome to the numb.
Welcome to the numb.
People, did you ever feel like you're going insane?
Sister, I'm feelin pretty safe, dead in this home-made grave.
This situation's critical, have I lost my mind?
And I like it.
There's too much information, can you see it in my eyes?
I said, "Hey man, all I want is the truth." See what you wanna see, feel what you
wanna feel.
I don't wanna know, I don't wanna deal, I don't wanna be any part of your stupid
mother fucker machine.
Do what ya wanna do, kill if ya gotta kill, 'cause I just don't believe your point
of view.
Welcome to the numb, fools.
Welcome to the numb.
Welcome to the numb.
Situation's critical, have we lost our minds?
But we like it.
So much information, you can you see it in our eyes.
I said, "Hey man, just gimmie the truth."
Why don't we see what ya wanna see, feel what ya wanna feel.
I don't wanna know, I don't wanna deal, I don't wanna be any part of your stupid
mother fucker machine.
Do what ya wanna do, kill if ya gotta kill, 'cause I just don't believe your point
of view.
Welcome to the numb, fools.
Welcome to the numb.
Welcome to the numb.

OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN lyrics - Rock A Bye Baby
(Traditional)
Rock a bye baby on the tree top
When the wind blows
The cradle will rock
When the bow breaks
The cradle will fall
But I will save baby
Cradle and all
PULP lyrics - Wishful Thinking
When I was with this girl last night
She held me tight; it turned me on
The moon was dark and those clothes were tight
Her perfume strong; it turned me on
Fleeting moments touched in the night
Then so strong but banished by the light
Her presence gone, memories remain
Of how she kissed and turned me on
Now there's this love inside of me
I've got this love
Inside of me
And I still have dull aching pain
Desire to reach and touch you once again
Distractions cannot sate the need
It grows once more, it grows once more
I've got this love inside of me
I've got this love inside of me
I've got this love inside of me
I've got this love inside of me
I have this pain inside of me
Why can't you see?
Why can't you see?
I'm stranded here with no way home
Please rescue me, oh won't you rescue me?
I've got this love inside of me
I've got this love inside of me
I've got this love inside of me
I've got this love inside of me.
KINGDOM COME lyrics - Do You Like It
Now is the time
That we'll give it to you
Slam out the beat
Until it's black and blue
We're ready to rock
'Til the morning light
Scream at the night
'Cause you feel alright
Do you like it
Do you like it
The fever is rising
We don't wanna stop
The power to take it to the top
Doing the things
That we all love to do
I know you can feel it
Inside of you
Do you like it
Do you like it
Now you know the time is right
And you want to rock tonight
If you want to touch the sky
We can do it, you and I
Do you like it
The fire's burning
It's out of control
The blazing heart of rock and roll
Feels so much better than it did before
Just can't get enough
Coming back for more
Do you like it
Do you llke it
Do you like it
Do you like it
Now you know the time is right
And you want to rock tonight
If you want to touch the sky
We can do it you and I

I ain't complainin'
But I'd sure like to find me
A true, fine love

JOHN (COUGAR) MELLENCAMP lyrics - Lafayette
[Originally by Lucinda Williams]
You feel so good, Lafayette, now I've come to greet you
Tell all my friends I've come back again
I couldn't stay away, I was gone only a day
But I'm comin' back to my sweet Lafayette
I'm goin' down to Lafayette, I don't care how long I'm gone
It's so hard to leave you, Lafayette, now I know where I belong
When that sweet fiddle sounds and Clifton gets down
That music sounds so good to me, I just might dance until three
And I gotta get back to my sweet Lafayette
Oh, those boys in Lafayette, smilin' so pretty
Those sweet boys in Lafayette, they sure do look good to me
We danced all night long to a sweet Cajun song
Drinkin' and jivin' 'til dawn, I could dance on and on
Doin' a two-step in my sweet Lafayette
Take me back Lafayette, way down on the bayou
I'm your girl, Lafayette, I'm gonna hang around you
Eat that gumbo and rollin' and tumble
And do crazy things every night, soon I'll be feelin' alright
When I get back to my sweet Lafayette
When I get back to my sweet Lafayette
JOHN PRINE lyrics - Automobile
February morning, my car won't start today
I turned the key at 8:03 and the battery passed away
Inside a' my automobile
I want my automobile
I want my automobile
I want to drive it all around this world
Bride's gettin' married in the Springtime
Widow's gettin married in the Fall
I got married in high school
Or I wouldn't of got married at all
I'd be drivin' my automobile
Be drivin' my automobile
Be drivin' my automobile
I wanna drive it all around this world
Everybody said to the new groom
Groom, what ya gonna be
I said I'm gonna be a symphony
Just as soon as I find a key
To my automobile
I want my automobile
I want my automobile
All around this world
[Spoken:]
Let's take a ride
Columbus sailed the ocean
Moses parted the sea
Dolores left me yesterday
Well, I think she took the key
To my automobile
I want my automobile
I want my automobile
Wanna drive it all around this world
Now I held a little bitty baby
I held a woman all night
Whenever I get the hiccups
I hold my breath 'til my head gets light
Then I drive my automobile
Yeah I drive my automobile
I drive my automobile
I'm want to drive it all around this world
February morning, my car won't start today
Yeah, I turned the key at 8:03
And the battery passed away
Inside a' my automobile
I'm drivin' my automobile
Wanna my automobile
Wanna drive it all around this world
Go on.
[Spoken:]
It is a beautiful day for a ride
Hey, get your head down I can't see anything
Someone give me a cigarette
I don't want to take my hands off the wheel
We ought to take the air filter off this sucker.
So we can see what it will really do.
Uh oh, it looks to me like a HOS-PITAL Zone
Everybody get quiet. Shhhhhhhh.
Don't wake the dead up.
We're almost out. Hang on. Uh Oh here we go.
Well, you can just hold it until we get to the next town.

ELVIS COSTELLO lyrics - Getting Mighty Crowded
I'm packing up my memories
And I'm gonna move all out of your heart
I'm turning in my keys
And I'm gonna move all out of your heart
'Cause there ain't room enough for two
In dreams that were made for me and you
I'm telling you, it's getting mighty crowded
Too crowded for me
It's getting mighty crowded
I'm gonna take these things of mine
And I'm gonna move all out of your life
Stop wasting my time
And I'm gonna move all out of your life
'Cause there ain't room enough for three
In dreams that were made for you and me
So you see, it's getting mighty crowded
Too crowded for me
It's getting mighty crowded
I'm saving you the trouble of putting me down
Starting on the double, yeah yeah
I'm gonna shop around
I'm gonna find another heart
Where I can live all by myself
Gonna find another heart
I don't have to share with anybody else
'Cause you don't treat me like you should
And hanging around this neighborhood is no good
It's getting mighty crowded
Too crowded for me, getting mighty crowded
I'm packing up my memories, getting mighty crowded
Too crowded for me, getting mighty crowded
Too crowded for me, getting mighty crowded

SARAH MCLACHLAN lyrics - Don't Let Go
(Bryan Adams/Gavin Greenaway/R. J. Lange/Gretchen Peters)
[Soundtrack to "Spirit: Stallion Of The Cimarron"]
I can't believe this moment's come
It's so incredible that we're alone
There's so much to be said and done
It's impossible not to be overcome
Will you forgive me if I feel this way
Cuz we've just met - tell me that's OK
So take this feeling'n make it grow
Never let it - never let it go
(Dont let go of the things you believe in)
You give me something that I can believe in
(Dont' let go of this moment in time)
Go of this moment in time
(Don't let go of things that you're feeling)
I can't explain the things that I'm feeling
(Dont' let go)
No, I won't let go
Now would you mind if I bared my soul
If I came right out and said your'e beautiful
Cuz there's something here I can't explain
I feel I'm diving into driving rain
You get my senses running wild
I can't resist your sweet, sweet smile
So take this feeling'n make it grow
Never let it - never let it go
[Chorus:]
I've been waiting all my life
To make this moment feel so right
The feel of you just fills the night
So c'mon - just hold on tight

RICK SPRINGFIELD lyrics - Rhythm Of The Beat
Stand up everybody
This is where we start
Listen to the rhythm
Of the music in your heart
Get up on your feet
Fire's burning red
Listen to the rhythm
Of the music in your head
Yea, I'm connected to the rhythm of the beat
Hey, can't start a revolution
If you can't hear the revolution's call
You'll never see a thousand rainbows
If you can't find the waterfall
If you want to see the mountains
And a real blue sea
Make a trip to Mars and Mercury
Take a giant step out of reality
Come and take a ride with me
You want to fly with angels
You want to sail through time
Watch a dragon guarding a mountain
You have to climb...
Stand up everybody
This is where we start
Listen to the rhythm
Of the music in your heart
Get up on your feet
Fire's burning red
Listen to the rhythm
Of the music in your head
We're all connected to the rhythm of the beat
Stand up everybody
This is where we start
Listen to the rhythm
Of the music in your heart
Get up on your feet
Fire's burning red
Listen to the rhythm
Of the music in your head
You want to fly
With angels
You want to sail through time
watch a dragon guarding a mountain
We're gonna climb
Stand up everybody
This is where we start
Listen to the rhythm
Of the music in your heart
Get up on your feet
Fire's burning red
Listen to the rhythm
Of the music in your head
Rhythm of the beat
Rhythm of the beat
Mountains gonna fall
to the rhythm of the beat
Rhythm of the beat
Rhythm of the beat
Can't stand tall to the
Rhythm of the beat
Dancing in the street to the
Rhythm of the beat
Turn back time to the
Rhythm of the beat
Rhythm of the beat
Turning up the heat
Let it shine to the
rhythm of the beat
Rhythm of the beat
Rhythm of the beat
Rhythm of the beat

BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST lyrics - Death Of A City
I look down the street but there's no one there
In the cold, in the dark, in the night air
I call out for life but my heart feels despair
There's no sign of a light in the cold dismal night
The lights have all gone the clothes are all torn
The people are gone but the victory's won
I call out for life but it's after the day
Now the people are gone just the city alone
Eyes look from the second floor
Down to the street below
Calm now the wind is slow
See posters once on the wall
Now washed away in the rain
Peeling from buildings tall
I'll follow you friends to where life never ends
Make our mistakes again as our life lines descend
Time is like dust and the dust is like snow
As it covers the ruins of the life that you know
Trees once green now turned to stone
Objects that look like ghosts
All of them overgrown
Mist all sight and mind is blurred
Lie on your back and cry
Words uttered never heard
I look down the street but there's no one there
In the cold, in the dark, in the night air
I call out for life but my heart feels despair
There's no sign of a light in the cold dismal night
The lights have all gone the clothes are torn
The people are gone but the victory's won
I call out for life but it's after the day
Now the people are gone just the city alone
FATS DOMINO lyrics - Whole Lotta Lovin'
I got a whole lotta lovin' for you
true true love for you
I got a whole lotta lovin' for you
A got a whole lotta [kiss, kiss] for you
A got a whole lotta [kiss, kiss] for you
I got a whole lotta kisses for you
A got a whole lotta [clap, clap] to do
A got a whole lotta [clap, clap] to do
And I'm so glad to see you
I got a whole lotta lovin' for you
true true love for you
I got a whole lotta lovin' for you
A got a whole lotta [kiss, kiss] for you
A got a whole lotta [kiss, kiss] for you
I got a whole lotta kisses for you
A got a whole lotta [clap, clap] to do
A got a whole lotta [clap, clap] to do
Cause I'm so glad to see you
GOLDEN EARRING lyrics - I Can't Sleep Without You
(G. Kooymans/B. Hay)
Silver like a fish slappin' on my tongue
Speak to me the way you do
Hide me all summer in your arms
Hold me the way I like you to
You fill my cup 'till it's crackin' up
The button that says alarm
Says me I'm not supposed to
Be like a champ that's going down
Fighting to get close to you
Everybody gets up, excited by love
The sight of the ring, the sight of the blood
I can't sleep without you [4x]
Referee's in black and he's in shock
The judge is hammering for some solid proof
My heart keeps racing like a clock, yeah
I can't sleep without you
It's like a time bomb, ready to go off
In my head and in my heart
The lights keep fading in the dark
Just like a nightmare that's comin' true
I can't sleep without you
I'm crazy in the city, it just ain't fair
You send me to my corner, and you're never there
I can't sleep without you
I can't...............
KINGDOM COME lyrics - Waiting
Waiting for the good to come
Crying, 's what we've done too long
Hurting, now it has begun
We can't force what's not ment to be
Hating, will be next to come
That's why, we should start to run
Don't cry, 'cause I'm not that strong
Take good care, don't look back my love
[Chorus:]
Never gonna be the same
Gotta leave the house of pain
Why, I really can't explain
Nothing you and I can do
Someone killed our guiding flame
Can't go on by changing names
You and I can only pray
For a sign to come to show our way
For a sign to come, my love
Nothing we can do - ooh
Take good care and don't look back
Wating for the good
MICHAEL BOLTON lyrics - Take Me As I Am
Woman, you don't understand
Oh, I'm just a man
Baby, that's all I am
That's all I have ever been
And you, you don't understand
Oh, I've gotta live
You make it so hard to do
you know you hurt me, baby
Take me, take me as I am
Take me as I am, Baby
Ooh, ooh, take me as I am
All I believe is that you've taken me
For some kind of dream
I don't want to wait too long
For my love is in the way to see it
I don't wanna lose you, baby
But your love is in the way
Ya gotta listen
It's time to listen to me
You, you don't realize
Oh, I've gotta live
You make it so hard to bear
It may be hard for me to go on
And I know, I know, I know
You'll understand
I'm just a man, baby
That's all I am
Don't make it hard on me
Just take me, take me as I am, baby
Take me as I am, baby
Take me as I am, oh
Take me as I am, Baby
Oh, take me as I am now

10CC lyrics - Yvonne's The One
When I first saw Yvonne, volcanoes erupted
And her laughter flowed into my life
She seemed so right, nothing wrong
Everything about her was so strong
So I waited for the magic to start
Somebody touch me deep in my heart
Yvonne's the one I've been dreaming on
She said "Hold on
You're not the only one"
And so I said "You're wrong Yvonne"
When I saw her again, I was caught in a landslide
But I didn't dare let it show
Her ruby lips were teasing me
But jealousy would never let us be
So I waited for the magic to start
But I know it's gonna tear us apart
Yvonne's the one I've been dreaming on
She said "Hold on
You're not the only one"
And so I said "You're wrong Yvonne"
She'll never know how much I loved her
I never got to tell
We never had the chance to say farewell
When I last saw Yvonne
She was covered in roses
But the laughter had gone from her eyes
She walked so tall, looked so grand
Everything about her truly planned
But what you get is not what you see
"So long Yvonne you're not fooling me"
Yvonne's the one I've been counting on
She said "Hold on
You're not the only one"
And so I said "So long Yvonne"
PAUL MCCARTNEY lyrics - Drive My Car
(Lennon/McCartney)
Asked a girl what she wanted to be
She said baby, "Can't you see
I wanna be famous, a star on the screen
But you can do something in between"
Baby you can drive my car
Yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car
And maybe I love you
I told a girl that my prospects were good
And she said baby, "It's understood
Working for peanuts is all very fine
But I can show you a better time"
Baby you can drive my car
Yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car
And maybe I love you
Beep beep'm beep beep yeah
Baby you can drive my car
Yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car
And maybe I love you
I told that girl I can start right away
And she said, "Listen baby I got something to say
I got no car and it's breaking my heart
But I've found a driver and that's a start"
Baby you can drive my car
Yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car
And maybe I love you
Beep beep'm beep beep yeah
Beep beep'm beep beep yeah
Beep beep'm beep beep yeah
Beep beep'm beep beep yeah (fade out)
THE CLASH lyrics - Junco Partner
(The Clash)
Down the road came a Junco Partner
For he was loaded as can be
He was knocked out, knocked out loaded
He was a'wobblin' all over the street
Singing 6 months ain't no sentence
And one year ain't no time
I was born in Angola
Serving 14 to 99
Well I wish I had me $1 million dollars
Oh one million to call my own
I would raise meat and say, "grow for me baby"
I would raise me a tobacco farm
Well I wish I would have me a great deal of money
Yeah and mighty good things all over town
Now I ain't got no more money
All of my good friends are putting me down
So now I gotta pawn my rifle and pistol
Yeah I'm gonna pawn my watch and chain
I would have pawned my seat Gabriella
But the smart girl she wouldn't sign her name
Give me headstone when I die
HELLOWEEN lyrics - Judas
You promise us a bright golden future
You say you will save the world
That there will be no more hunger and pain
But we only see your golden hands
You say you take care of our survival
Sending us missiles instead
But you just betray us, deny us and lie
And you always say you would
[Chorus 1:]
Fight for freedom, fight for rights
I see treason in your eyes.
[Chorus 2:]
Judas - rulin' with an iron hand
Judas - sittin' in the government
Judas - I am not a Jesus Christ
Judas - you will be the one who's crucified
Your worship money and economy
There's nothing that you wouldn't do
If the payment is right you don't care about life
'Cause economy is your truth
You are the one selling terror and pain
In all the parts of the world
You are preparing the final grand slam
But you keep on tellin' you'll
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 2]
[Solo]
Judas, Judas - are you still human?
Judas, Judas - I can't believe it
Judas, Judas - dealing with evil
Judas, Judas
You'll keep on telling you'll
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 2 2x]

THE TOY DOLLS lyrics - One More Megabyte
One more, one more, one more, one more...
Addict with an Apple Mac, megabyte maniac
Moron with a mouse mat, a junky
Distressed, you've guessed, obviously obsessesed
I, NEED MORE MEMORY!
He's a prat, he's a bore, with a word processor
Don't disturb on the door, NO ENTRY
Mad man won't become, parted from his pentium
Shot his mam just coz, she dusted and seleted DOS
Can I possibly survive, with out Windows 95
It crashes when I double click, crackin up I'm hysteric
[Chorus:]
Ooooooooooohhh
Gimme gimme gimme one more
Gimme gimme gimme one more
I need another megabyte to save my sanity one more...
Where's he at, where's he gone, creep with a computer on
In his room, all night long, leave me be...
Yelled when he saw, the bolt on his bedroom door
Can't take no more, life without a monitor
Don't need these, PC D T's
Achin', No fakin', I'm a sh sh sh sh shakin'
[Chorus]
[Guitar bit]
Megabyte, byte byte, megabyte one more
One more megabyte memory megabyte, byte byte,
Megabyte one more One more mega megabyte for me
[Chorus]
