IRVING BERLIN lyrics - You Keep Coming Back Like A Song

[Verse:]

Can't run away from you, dear, I've tried so hard but I fear

You'll always follow me near and far

Just when I think that I'm set, just when I've learned to forget

I close my eyes, dear, and there you are



[Refrain:]

You keep coming back like a song

A song that keeps saying, "Remember"



The sweet used-to-be that was once you and me

Keeps coming back like an old melody



The perfume of roses in May

Returns to my room in December



From out of the past where forgotten things belong

You keep coming back like a song

GLENN HUGHES AND JOE LYNN TURNER lyrics - Keep On Shining

Out on the run, down in the street

Living it day after day

Against all the odds, taking the heat

Nothing can stand in our way



Never enough, comin' on strong

I'm gonna make you believe

Love one another, keep moving along

You gotta live to receive



Life on the line, holding on tight

One by one don't you know

Somewhere in time, like a ghost in the night

Take down the sun, here we go



[Chorus:]

Keep on shining

We're gonna shoot out the lights

Keep on shining

We're gonna burn down the night



The time has come, I want to see

Everyone raising their hands

It can be done, just you and me

Right now we're making a stand



Life on the line, holding on tight

One by one don't you know

Somewhere in time, like a ghost in the night

Take down the sun, here we go



[Chorus]



Tell me how you feel

Can you see it's real

FRANK SINATRA lyrics - Don't Cry Joe

(Joe Marsala)



[Recorded May 23, 1961, Los Angeles]



Don't cry, Joe, let her go, let her go, let her go,

Don't cry, Joe, let her go, let her go, let her go.

You got to realize this is the wind-up,

You're gonna feel much better once you made your mind up.

Don't cry, Joe, let her go, let her go, let her go.

So you lost your gal, it's happened many times before,

So you sit and mope like a dope, what's that good for,

Get a hold of yourself, forget her, you lived long before you met her.

There're lots of other girls, so I say,

Don't cry, Joe, let her go, let her go, let her go.

Don't cry, Joe, let her go, let her go, let her go.

You got to realize this is the wind-up,

You'll feel much better once you made your mind up.

Don't cry, Joe, let her go, let her go, let her go.



Take a look around and see just what you're missing,

You'll soon forget your troubles, Joe, if you'd only listen.

So don't cry, Joe, let her go, let her go, Joe, let her go.

GOO GOO DOLLS lyrics - Close Your Eyes

I wish I had a saxophone

I'd play the blues til you came home

With a little sadness in your eye

Now that all my time was spent

In you walked you're heaven sent

Thinking 'bout all the nights you cried



Had a certain passion

And I had silly dreams

All of the vicious actions

Don't close your eyes to me



I wish I had a camera lens

To film the things my mind had said

Before they reached my mouth and got all bent

Looking up the skies of blue

All day long I think of you

Even after all the shit we've been through



Had a certain passion

And I had silly dreams

All of the vicious actions

Don't close your eyes to me

UFO lyrics - Gone In The Night

Honey kick your shoes off now

And stay another night

Let's not talk too seriously

We don't wanna fight

Now I don't care about your reputation

Or how you got it made

All I want is for you to stay

Don't want a charade



(1) And the lights go down

Who you with tonight

It ain't so easy holding on

Everything you seem to do babe

Just turns out so wrong

You're gone in the night

You're gone in the night

You 're gone in the night



People try to tell you now

About responsibilities

Those married-me do's and don'ts

How it ought to be

But I don't care what they say

Don't wanna hear what's true

As long as you want me baby

You know I need you



(Repeat (1) )

DONALD FAGEN lyrics - Walk Between The Raindrops

A shadow crossed the blue Miami sky

As we hit the causeway by the big hotel

We fought

Now I can't remember why

After all the words were said and tears were gone

We vowed we'd never say goodbye



When we kissed we could hear the sound of thunder

As we watched the regulars rush the big hotels

We kissed again as the showers swept the Florida shore

You opened your umbrella

But we walked between the raindrops back to your door



In my dreams I can hear the sound of thunder

I can see the causeway by the big hotels

That happy day we'll find each other on that Florida shore

You'll open your umbrella

And we'll walk between the raindrops back to your door...

U2 lyrics - October

October

And the trees are stripped bare

Of all they wear

What do I care



October

And kingdoms rise

And kingdoms fall

But you go on...and on...

CAMEL lyrics - Curiosity

Sail, sail away,

There you go.

Why not let me come along,

I won't tell no one.



Now our bodies have entwined,

Touch me with your mind.

Your dreams are a mystery,

Please share them with me.



Curiosity is killing me,

I just got to know.

Curiosity is killing me,

I just got to know -

Where, tell me where,

Where are you sailing...



(repeat)

THE POGUES lyrics - The Wake Of The Medusa

(Jem Finer)



The guests are stood in silence

They stare and drink their wine

On the wall the canvas hangs

Frozen there in time

They marvel at the beauty

The horror and despair

At the wake of the Medusa

No one shed a tear



Sit my friends and listen

Put your glasses down

Sit my friends and listen

To the voices of the drowned



In the moonlight's ghostly glow

I waken in a dream

Once more upon that raft I stand

Upon a raging sea

In my ears the moans and screams

Of the dying ring

Somewhere in the darkness

The siren softly sings



Out there in the waves she stands

And smiling there she calls

As the lightning cracks the sky

The wind begins to howl



The architects of our doom

Around their tables sit

And in their thrones of power

Condemn those they've cast adrift

Echoes down the city street

Their harpies laughter rings

Waiting for the curtain call

Oblivious in the wings



The casket is empty

Abandon ye all hope

They ran off with the money

And left us with the rope

MICHAEL DUNFORD'S RENAISSANCE lyrics - I Think Of You

I love you like a stream flows restless to the sea

See you like the mist touches clouds, touches me

See you in the stars wherever you may be

I think of you, think of you



If ever you're near and have some time to spend

I love you every way, love you like a friend

And then when you leave a whisper in my mind

I think of you, think of you



When I see a bird fly over to the sea

And the sun in the sky is shining warm and free

And when I feel the wind blow cool over me

I think of you, think of you

THE KINKS lyrics - Kentucky Moon

Never been anywhere south of the Delaware

Never been through Kalamazoo

Never been to Timbuktu



Living is fantasy, traveling mentally

Making up tunes in hotel rooms

'Bout places I've never been to



Though I've never crooned under a Kentucky moon



I had my dream, Kentucky moon

But it's only moon dreams

From songs, films and TV

But I can visualize what I've never seen

But I had my dream, Kentucky moon



Route 66 to me is still a mystery

And Ohio, too

Went Chicago blue down to St. Louie blues



Never been anywhere south of the Delaware

Never been through Kalamazoo

Never been to Timbuktu



But I can visualize what I've never seen

So I sit and dream, Kentucky moon



As I sit by a stream in the moon

But it's just imagery

From songs, films and TV

But I can visualize what I've never seen

So I sit and dream, Kentucky moon

NEIL DIAMOND lyrics - New York Boy

New York City, look at me now

Being stared at from behind the plow

Mississippi, don't get annoyed

I ain't no hippie, just a New York boy



Didn't want the mayor to come

Or a big brass band to greet me

But then the reception I got

Well it wasn't what I had in mind

People gawkin' at me

Like I'm talkin' strange

Me, I ain't much better

'Cause I'm thinkin' the same

Hey boy



New York City, look at me now

Being stared at from behind the plow

Mississippi, don't get annoyed

I ain't no hippie, just a New York boy



Sayin' y'all and eatin' on grits

Talkin' as slow as molasses

And all the time just pointing at me

And the hair growin' over my ears



Gets my mind to wonderin'

Just who's right and who's wrong

I guess if they'll get used to the sideburns

I'll get used to the corn

Hey boy



New York City, look at me now

Being stared at from behind the plow

Mississippi, don't get annoyed

I ain't no hippie, just a New York boy



New York City, look at me now

Being stared at from behind the plow

Mississippi, don't get annoyed

I ain't no hippie, just a New York boy

New York City look at me now.....

STATUS QUO lyrics - All Around My Hat

(Traditional)



All around my hat I will wear the green willow

And all around my hat, for a twelve month and a day

And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it

It's all for my true love who's far far away



Faretheewell cold winter, and faretheewell cold frost

Nothing have I gained, but my own true love I've lost

I'll sing and I'll be merry when occasion I do see

She's a false deluded young girl, let her go, farewell she



And all around my hat I will wear the green willow

And all around my hat, for a twelve month and a day

And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it

It's all for my true love who's far far away



The other night she brought me a fine diamond ring

But she thought to have deprived me of a far better thing

But I being careful like lovers ought to be

She's a false deluded young girl, let her go, farewell she



And all around my hat I will wear the green willow

And all around my hat, for a twelve month and a day

And if anyone should ask me the reason why I'm wearing it

It's all for my true love who's far far away

WEIRD AL YANKOVIC lyrics - She Never Told Me She Was A Mime

When we first met she seemed perfectly normal

I never dreamed she'd make my life so hard

You see, my baby, she started to change

Started lookin' kinda strange

Wearin' all that white makeup and those black leotards

Well, I guess she kept her little secret pretty well

Now, ever since I learned the horrible truth, you know my life has been a living hell

That's right, you see...



She never told me she was a mime

She never told me she was a mime, oh no

Actin' like she's trapped inside a big glass box all the time

She never told me, she never told me whe was a...

Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-mime



I wish we both could just talk it all over

But my baby won't even make a sound

Now she makes everybody sick

Doin' that pantomime shtick

Even our old friends have stopped coming around

Well, mmy parents can't stand her and our neighbors hate her guts

She's really, really embarrassing me... this silent treatment's driving me nuts

You see...



She never told me she was a mime

She never told me she was a mime, oh no

Now she's actin' like she's trapped inside a big glass box all the time... what a crime

She never told me (she never told me) she never told me she was a mime



She walks against the wind everywhere we go

Stops at every corner, gotta put on a show

Carries 'round a picture of Marcel Marceau

Always the wuiet type, but how was I know to know?



She never told me she was a mime

She never told me she was a mime, oh no

Actin' like she's trapped inside a big glass box all the ti-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yime

She never told me, she never told me whe was a mime

GARY MOORE lyrics - Bring My Baby Back

(Gary Moore)



Well I'm standing at the station

A suitcase in my hand

I'm standing at the station

A suitcase in my hand



But that train won't bring my baby back

No that train won't bring my baby back



Yeah she left me here this morning

To meet another man

She left me here this morning

To meet another man



But that train won't bring my baby back

No that train won't bring my baby back, oh no



Gonna look for my sweet baby

A suitcase in my hand

Gonna look for my sweet baby

A suitcase in my hand



And that train don't bring my baby back

Yeah that train don't bring my baby back



Well I'm standing at the station

A suitcase in my hand

Lord I'm standing at the station

A suitcase in my hand



But that train won't bring my baby back

No that train won't bring my baby back, yeah

BOB DYLAN lyrics - I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine

I dreamed I saw St. Augustine

Alive as you or me

Tearing through these quarters

In the utmost misery

With a blanket underneath his arm

And a coat of solid gold

Searching for the very souls

Whom already have been sold.



"Arise, arise", he cried so loud

With a voice without restraint

"Come out ye gifted kings and queens

And hear my sad complaint

No martyr is among ye now

Whom you can call your own

So go on your way accordingly

But know you're not alone".



I dreamed I saw St. Augustine

Alive with fiery breath

And I dreamed I was amongst the ones

That put him out to death

Oh, I awoke in anger

So alone and terrified

I put my fingers against the glass

And bowed my head and cried.

CHER lyrics - He'll Never Know

They go off leaving me behind

They have so many worlds to find

I run to catch a glimpse of them

Just walking in the sun

Knowing they'll be mine again

When evening has begun



And when I see them hand in hand

The boy who walks beside the man

I pray that I will always have the world

That I have found

The husband and the son

That I have built my life around



[Chorus:]

He'll never know of that night long ago

He'll never know it's locked in my mind

No, he'll never know from the feelings I show

He'll never know his son's only mine



Sometimes I lie awake at night

Watching darkness turn to light

Thinking back on all the things

I said to him today

Wondering if I might of had

A careless word to say



When the morning's almost here he reaches out to draw me near

Silently I search his face for the love I hope to see

And once again I'm sure that all his love belongs to me



No

[Chorus]

THE KINGSTON TRIO lyrics - Longest Beer Of The Night

(Carson Parks)



This is the longest beer of the night and in the East I think I see some light,

And pretty soon I know the sun will shine and I know a bar that opens promptly at nine:at nine.



I guess two six-packs wasn't enough 'cause right about now the goin' really gets rough

And some early bird is happy callin' his mate and I wish I knew a bar that opened promptly at eight.



Maybe I was just a fool thinkin' I could drown you outa my mind but the longest part of the day is just before nine:before nine.



I can see the dew that's settlin' onto the ground and if I'm not careful your mem'ry's gonna come 'round

And that's the reason I just gotta stay tight, so I'm just nursin' the longest beer of the night.

Yeah, I'm nursin' the longest beer of the night.

JONI MITCHELL lyrics - Morning Morgantown

When morning comes to Morgantown

The merchants roll their awnings down

The milktrucks make their morning rounds

In morning, Morgantown



We'll rise up early, with the sun

To ride the bus while everyone is yawning

And the day is young

In morning, Morgantown



Morning Morgantown

Buy your dreams a dollar down

Morning any town you name

Morning's just the same



We'll find a table in the shade

And sip our tea and lemonade

And watch the morning on parade

In morning, Morgantown



Ladies in their rainbow fashions

Colored stop and go lights flashing

We'll wink at total strangers passing in

Morning, Morgantown



Morning Morgantown

Buy your dreams a dollar down

Morning any town you name

Morning's just the same



I'd like to buy you everything

A wooden bird with painted wings

A window full of colored rings

In morning, Morgantown.



But the only thing I have to give

To make you smile, to win you with

Are all the mornings still to live

In morning, Morgantown

ELVIS COSTELLO lyrics - Toledo

All through the night you telephoned

I saw the light blinking red

Beside the cradle

But you don't know how far I've gone

Now I must live with the lie

That I made

But if I call, I know I won't have to say it

You'll hear my voice - something is bound to betray it



But do people living in Toledo

Know that their name hasn't travelled very well?

And does anybody in Ohio

Dream of that Spanish citadel?

But it's no use saying that I love you

And how that girl really didn't mean a thing to me

For if anyone should look into your eyes

It's not forgiveness that they're gonna see



You hear her voice - "How could you do that?"

You hear her voice - "How could you do that?"



So I walked outside in the bright

Sunshine and lovers pass by

Smiling and joking

But they don't know the fool I was

Why should they care what was lost

What was broken?



But if I call, I know I won't have to say it

You'll hear my voice - something is bound to betray it



But do people living in Toledo

Know that their name hasn't travelled very well?

And does anybody in Ohio

Dream of that Spanish citadel?

But it's no use saying that I love you

And how that girl really didn't mean a thing to me

For if anyone should look into your eyes

It's not forgiveness that they're gonna see



But do people living in Toledo

Know that their name hasn't travelled very well?

And does anybody in Ohio

Dream of that Spanish citadel?

But we still have Florence, Alabama

We don't have Paris, and we don't have Rome

THE KINKS lyrics - Session Man

He never will forget at all

The day he played at the Albert Hall.

A million sessions ago it seems.

He is a session man,

A chord progression,

A top musician.



Rock 'n' roll or vocal star[?],

A philharmonic orchestra,

Everything comes the same to him.

He is a session man,

A chord progression,

A top musician.



He's not paid to think, just play,

A session man

A session man

A session man

Playing at a different studio every day.



He reads the dots and plays each line,

And always finishes on time.

No overtime nor favors done.

He is a session man,

A chord progression,

A top musician.



He's not paid to think, just play,

A session man

A session man

A session man

CARLY SIMON lyrics - Hola Soleil

Free my eyes

Fill the skies

We've been dancing in your absence



Da da da...

Morning, hola, soleil

We've kept the darkness light

Dancing for the sun

To come back and rise up shining



Welcome home

Mother sun

Children reaching up like flowers



Da da da...

Morning, hola, soleil

We made it through the night

Knowing you'd return

To bless us with another morning



Baking sand, shining sea

Turning world

Dissolving shadows



Da da da...

Morning, hola, soleil

Behold the warmth of day

Rising near the shore

Hear the music start up playing

BERLIN lyrics - Confession Time

(K. Hyde / T. Nunn / R. Smith)



You're driving along...about 95 miles and hour

Sun's up, it's a hot day...and blue sky...

There's not a soul around you...you're alone



Hey little god with your foot to the pedal

Hands on the wheel staring out through the windshield

Hair streaking back with the wind like a raven

Over your shoulder, all is forgotten



Under the rubber, the road is afire

Sweat on your body and rust on the chromium

One motivation, a single desire

Keep on the move, don't let anyone near you



Here comes confession time

The ghost of my past

On my shoulder now

This is confession time for me



Here comes confession time

The ghost of all

The years has tracked me down

It's confession time for me



Now thinking back to a home when you had one

Back down the road in the dust you remember

Loves you left when you woke up surrounded

Now you're alone, no one to turn to



What do you hide with your Ray-Bans

What do you love when you look in the mirror

There's no escape from the voices inside you



Here comes confession time

The ghost of my past

On my shoulder now

This is confession time for me



Here comes confession time

The ghost of all

The years has tracked me down

It's confession time for me



Rain down

And nowhere to hide

Nowhere to hide



Rain on me

Rain down

And nowhere to hide

Nowhere to hide



You can drive on a road to nowhere

Or you can take the wheel and

Turn it to your heart

It's your life it's your life

SUPERTRAMP lyrics - Child Of Vision

Well, who do you think you're foolin'?

You say you're havin' fun,

But you're busy going nowhere,

Just lying in the sun.

You tried to be a hero,

commit the perfect crime

but the dollar got you dancing

and you're running out of time.



You're messin' up the water

You're rolling in the wine

You're poisoning your body

You're poisoning your mind

You gave me coca-cola

You said it tasted good

You watch the television

It tell you that you should.



How can you live in this way?



You must have something to say.



There must be more to this life.

It's time we did something right.

Child of Vision, won't you listen?

Find yourself a new ambition.



I've heard it all before

You're saying nothing new

I thought I saw a rainbow

But I guess it wasn't true

You cannot make me listen

I cannot make you hear

You find your way to heaven,

I'll meet you when you're there.



How can you live in this way?



You must have something to say.



We have no reason to fight,

cos we both know that we're right.

Child of Vision, won't you listen?

Find yourself a new ambition.

PAUL MCCARTNEY lyrics - The Lovers That Never Were

I Have Always Needed Somebody Girl,

But I Close The Doors To Keep Out The World.

But For You, I Would Be Here All Alone,

Locked In A Photograph.

All Of The Clocks Have Run Down.

Lover Beware.

We'll Be The Lovers That Never Were.



I Hang Patiently On Every Word You Send.

Will We Ever Be Much More Than Just Friends?

As For You, You Sit There Playing This Game,

You Keep Me Waiting

When All Of The Clocks Have Run Down,

All Over The World.

We'll Be The Lovers That Never Were.



For As Long As The Sun Shines In Somebody's Eyes,

I Believe In You Baby, So Don't Tell Me Lies.

For As Long As The Trees Throw Down Blossoms And Leaves,

I Know There Will Be A Parade Of Unpainted Dreams.



And I Know Dear, How Much It's Going To Hurt

If You Still Refuse To Get Your Hands Dirty.

So You, You Must Tell Me Something,...I Love You,

Say Goodbye Or Anything.

All Of The Clocks Have Run Down.

Time's At An End.

If We Can't Be Lovers We'll Never Be Friends.



For As Long As The Sun Shines In Somebody's Eyes,

I Believe In You Baby, So Don't Tell Me Lies.

For As Long As The Trees Throw Down Blossoms And Leaves,

I Know There Will Be A Parade Of Unpainted Dreams.

STING lyrics - Walking On The Moon

Giant steps are what you take

Walking on the moon

I hope my legs don't break

Walking on the moon

We could walk forever

Walking on the moon

We could live together

Walking on, walking on the moon



Walking back from your house

Walking on the moon

Walking back from your house

Walking on the moon

Feet they hardly touch the ground

Walking on the moon

My feet don't hardly make no sound

Walking on, walking on the moon



Some may say

I'm wishing my days away

No way

And if it's the price I pay

Some say

Tomorrow's another day

You stay

I may as well play



Giant steps are what you take

Walking on the moon

I hope my legs don't break

Walking on the moon

We could walk forever

Walking on the moon

We could be together

Walking on, walking on the moon



Some may say

I'm wishing my days away

No way

And if it's the price I pay

Some say

Tomorrow's another day

You stay

I may as well play



Keep it up, keep it up

ZUCCHERO lyrics - Torno A Casa

(Zucchero - Salerno / Zucchero)



Torna a casa

E metti via

Ogni aspirazione che hai

Torna a casa

Che oramai

Ti sei fottuto lo sai... yeh



Torna a casa

Vai regolare

Che tanto non c'e' piu' niente da fare

Torna a casa

Hai perso il treno

Almeno adesso lo sai almeno



Che c'e' ancora lei

Lei che crede in te

Vai e non voltarti!



Torna a casa

E' gia' mattina

Anche se non hai niente da dire

Torna a casa

Hey bambina

Raccogli i pezzi di questo cuore.



Torna a casa

Che sei una roccia

Puoi cambiarti i vestiti e la faccia

Torna a casa

Con l'ultimo treno

Almeno adesso lo sai almeno



Che c'e' ancora lei

Lei che crede in te

Dai eh non odiarti!



Eh vai eh non voltarti

Ogni cosa si aggiusta

Eh dai non odiarti!

TOO $HORT (TOO SHORT) lyrics - Blowjob Betty

[Too $hort]

Right about now in the place to be

Too Short baby

Gettin real funky with the motherfuckin dangerous crew bitch

Too Short baby, I'm so hard

Pimpin these hos on the boulevard

But I'm not here to tell you about me

I got a little story about a nasty freak

She'd the kind a girl you think about in bed

Blowjob Betty give 'em real good head

Bust a left nut right nut in her jaw

Sperm on her cheeks is all you saw

She could blow more head than a well blows water

Blowjob Betty make your dick get harder

She's a one of a kind

A hell of a girl

A trip and a half around the world

Catch her gettin busy, bitch wouldn't stop

She's the kind a girl that make your toes pop

Every time I used to see her I would know what's up

Blowjob Betty better blow me up

I remember the day when I first met her

Bitch kinda loose so I knew I'd get her

Walked up to her, said my name is $hort

Just what you've been lookin for

Pimpin's my game

I do it the best

Ho fuck with me she don't get no rest

Well after that, I g'd the freak

I used to stop by and fuck her 'bout twice a week

And from the very first time I went to her house

Walked in the door and stuck my dick in her mouth

$hort dollar get bitches any time I wanna

Got a big dick and lay it right on the tonsils

I only stick it in about half way back

Cuz if I put it all in it bust straight through her neck

Niggas always sayin how they fucked that bitch

But I'm the only nigga that the bitch made rich

Like any other tramp, she loved to fuck

When any motherfucker got nuts to suck

I spit game to the bitch

Just like this

Why you runnin 'round suckin all that dick for no money?

It didn't take long to stay true to the game and get my pimpin' on

But every once in a while you get a stupid ho

Bitch ain't about money and she never know

How to get it

Blowjob Betty was dumb

A fiend for a fuck and a mouth full of cum

She made money for a minute but she loved the sex

So I cut the bitch loose like an old school 'vette

Six months later

I'm still the pimp

I'm still the player

One night at the club she was puttin in work

All you had to to do was step up to her

She was in the bathroom sayin "One at a time"

Wasn't my bitch but she still was fine

So I went in the back room, seen the bitch

Slapped her on the head, said "You ready to switch?"

And to the players out there, instantly

Blowjob Betty started servin' me

Cuz the player I am

Til the day I'm dead

I was sittin on the sink

Gettin some head

It was all so good and much too true

One young freak and the whole damn crew

But then I shot that fatal nut

Must 'a knocked that bitch on her butt

She couldn't even breath she was holdin her throat

Me and my homies just hit the door

My homeboys said "$hort don't worry"

But that next day I read this story

A young girl died just last night

She choked on sperm in her windpipe

It was on her face, her neck and chest

And we're sorry to say there's no suspects

When I saw that

My brain clicked

I bust a nut and killed a bitch

It might sound sick, it might be petty

But you never got sucked by Blowjob Betty

Betty [6x, fading]



[Talking]

Biyatch!

Yea, ho...haha

Y'all niggas don't know though

BRENDA LEE lyrics - Love And Learn

(B. Montgomery / E. Sinks)



Love and learn about the birds and bees

And the flowers of the mystery

And if you really want to give yourself a blue

Love and learn about the blues

The rocky road is pretty hard to take,

But you don't know nothing till your heart breaks

If you want to know how much you've got to lose,

Love and learn about the blues



Love is a game where your life gets spoken.

But the game gets rough when your heart get broken

You'll say at home sitting all alone

Waiting for the doorbell or the telephone



Then you'll know about what everyone must learn,

If you play around with love your will sure to get burned

So when you go to pick a guy be careful

Who you choose or you'll love and learn about the blues



Love is a game where life gets spoken.

But the game gets rough when your heart get broken

You'll say at home sitting all alone

Waiting for the doorbell or the telephone



Then you'll know about what everyone must learn,

If you play around with love your will sure to get burned

So when you go to pick a guy be careful

Who you choose or you'll love and learn about the blues

THE BEATLES lyrics - Love Me Do

(Lennon/McCartney)



Love, love me do

You know I love you

I'll always be true

So please, love me do

Whoa, love me do



Love, love me do

You know I love you

I'll always be true

So please, love me do

Whoa, love me do



Someone to love

Somebody new

Someone to love

Someone like you



Love, love me do

You know I love you

I'll always be true

So please, love me do

Whoa, love me do



Love, love me do

You know I love you

I'll always be true

So please, love me do

Whoa, love me do

Yeah, love me do

Whoa, oh, love me do

DON HENLEY lyrics - New York Minute

Harry got up

Dressed all in black

Went down to the station

And he never came back

They found his clothing

Scattered somewhere down the track

And he won't be down on Wall Street

In the morning



He had a home

The love of a girl

But men get lost sometimes

As years unfurl

One day he crossed some line

And he was too much in this world

But I guess it doesn't matter anymore



In a New York minute

Everything can change

In a New York minute

Things can get pretty strange

In a New York minute

Everything can change

In a New York minute



Lying here in the darkness

I hear the sirens wail

Somebody going to emergency

Somebody's going to jail

If you find somebody to love in this world

You better hang on tooth and nail

The wolf is always at the door



In a New York minute

Everything can change

In a New York minute

Things can get a little strange

In a New York minute

Everything can change

In a New York minute



And in these days

When darkness falls early

And people rush home

To the ones they love

You better take a fool's advice

And take care of your own

One day they're here;

Next day they're gone



I pulled my coat around my shoulders

And took a walk down through the park

The leaves were falling around me

The groaning city in the gathering dark

On some solitary rock

A desperate lover left his mark,

"Baby, I've changed. Please come back."



What the head makes cloudy

The heart makes very clear

The days were so much brighter

In the time when she was here

But I know there's somebody somewhere

Make these dark clouds disappear

Until that day, I have to believe

I believe, I believe



In a New York minute

Everything can change

In a New York minute

You can get out of the rain

In a New York minute

Everything can change

In a New York minute

ELTON JOHN lyrics - No Valentines

No more Valentine's Day

No more Christmas cards

I've thrown them all away

No more sequined stars

No birthday wishes

No more surprises

Who needs them anyway

No reason to get excited



Yes I gave you everything

I gave you earth and sky

And everything in between

That walks or crawls or flies

No Easter mornings

It's your cross now

Keep it all for yourself

It's overrated anyhow



But keep my Valentine

I'll keep my bleeding heart

Just let me out of here

Before that sentimental music starts

And your regrets

Fall like empty lines

Like the lies we write on Valentines

EARTH, WIND AND FIRE lyrics - Fantasy

(Maurice White, Eddie delBarrio & Verdine White)



Every man has a

place, in his heart there's a space,

and the world can't erase his fantasies

Take a ride in the sky, on our ship fantasii

all your dreams will come true, right away



And we will live together, until the twelfth of never

our voices will ring forever, as one



Every thought is a dream, rushing by in a stream,

bringing life to our kingdom of doing

Take a ride in the sky, on our ship fantasii

all your dreams will come true, miles away



Our voices will ring together until the twelfth of never,

we all, will live forever, as one



Come see victory, in the land called fantasy

loving life, a new decree,

bring your mind to everlasting liberty



Our minds will explore together, old worlds, we conquer, forever

we then, will expand love together, as one



Come to see, victory in a land called fantasy,

loving life, for you and me, to behold, to your soul is ecstasy

You will find, other kind, that has been in search for you,

many lives has brought you to

recognize it's your life, now in review

and as you stay for the play, fantasy, has in store for you,

a glowing light will see you through



It's your day, shining day, all your dreams come true

As you glide, in your stride with the wind, as you fly away

give a smile, from your lips, and say

I am free, yes I'm free, now I'm on my way

JIMMY BUFFETT lyrics - Chanson Pour Les Petits Enfants

Now young Mr. Moon flew away in the night

With his best friend Magnus right by his side

They soared through the Milky Way counting the stars

Once around Venus, twice around Mars



Then they spied an island rise out of the sea

They fell back to Earth just as free as you please

The children all gathered the church bells did ring

Suddenly everyone started to sing



[Chorus:]

Chanson pour les petits enfants

Chanson pour toute le monde

Chanson pour les petits enfants

Chanson pour toute le monde



Queen of the island she welcomed them in

Asked them questions of where they have been

She offered them chocolate she offered them tea

They all took their seats in the top of a tree



And raccoons brought wine and the mice they brought cheese

Beautiful birds floated by on the breeze

From out of the oceans the dolphins began

Humming a tune that soon covered the land



[Chorus]



So young Princess Lia brought coral and pearls

Gifts to the travelers from some other world

The Bush doctor mixed up a magical spell

Swore them to secrecy, never to tell



So young Mr. Moon flew away in the night

With his best friend Magnus right by his side

The sun was rising, they'd be home by noon

Humming the words to this magical tune



[Chorus]



Song for the children

Song for the world

RICHARD MARX lyrics - Remember Manhattan

Nothing worth a damn

Can be sifted through the brain

Sense don't make the

Man

But you insist on being sane

Don't take time to

Think

Or you're done before

You start

There's no missing link



Cause it's right there

In your heart

Take a closer look,

There's an answer not a

Question

In that may-december line

You'll bite a bigger

Hook

Than the one you want to leave behind

Remember manhattan

Woody wasn't wrong



Remember manhattan

Before you say so long

How you gonna tell

If it stands the test of time

There's no wishing well



That comestrue without the dime

It's a common curse

That the grass is always greener

No matter what you have

But nothing could be worse

Than to try to reproduce the past



Remember manhattan

Woody wasn't wrong



Remember manhattan

Before you say so long

Remember manhattan

What did woody say

He said, remember manhattan

Before you walk away

Lose your common sense

'cause you may not get the chance again

THE SUPREMES lyrics - He Holds His Own

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



Say what you will about him

You'll never make me doubt him

He means the world to me

His love is all I need

Wealth he doesn't have

But he holds his own



Say what you will about him

But I can't live without him

It makes my life worthwhile

Watching his tender smile



Handsome he may not be

But he holds his own

He holds his own



Say what you will about him

You'll never make me doubt him

Though he's a soft spoken guy

A little quiet, a little shy

He has qualities

'Cause he holds his own

He holds his own

He holds his own



Say what you will about him

He holds his own

You'll never make me doubt him

He holds his own

PINK FLOYD lyrics - Crying Song

We smile and smile

We smile and smile

Laughter echoes in your eyes

We climb and climb

We climb and climb

Footfall softly in the pines

We cry and cry

We cry and cry

Sadness passes in a while

We role and role

We role and role

Help me role away the stone

MIKE AND THE MECHANICS lyrics - Somewhere Along The Line

Somewhere along the line

We convince ourselves

Accept the ordinary



Refuse to read the signs

We just can't see

The extraordinary



Somewhere along the way

Dreams become a burden

I don't want to hear you say

That you're not certain of our love



Somewhere behind the sun

All the simple things

Appear as complicated



We substitute the fun

In a complex game

We call sophisticated



Somewhere along the way

Hopes turn to illusion

I don't want to hear you say

It's the conclusion of our love



Somewhere along the way

We lose imagination

It's new just to hear you say

In celebration of our love



Somewhere along the line

We convince ourselves

Accept the ordinary



Refuse to read the signs

We just can't see

The extraordinary



Somewhere along the line

Somewhere along the line

Somewhere along the line

Somewhere along the line

PET SHOP BOYS lyrics - I Want A Lover

At this time of night, when the crowds have passed

We're the last to leave, we need some company

No need to look so shy, don't even wonder why

You know the reason that we need this company

I've been sitting here, looking out for you

Someone just like me, who's maybe had a drink or two



I don't want another drink or fight

I want a lover

I don't care whether it's wrong or right

I want a lover tonight

Tonight



Outside the dawn is breaking, looks like it's started raining

We'll catch a cab, and soon be driving home

No need to look so shy, don't even wonder why

You'll know the reason just as soon as we get home

You've been sitting there, wondering what to do

I've been standing here, waiting to make the first move

Ahaha



I don't want another drink or fight

I want a lover

I don't care whether it's wrong or right

I want a lover tonight (Tonight)

I don't want another drink or fight

I want a lover

I don't care whether it's wrong or right

I want a lover tonight

Tonight



This anticipation is a stimulation

No need for conversation as we're driving home

Put your arms around me, it doesn't mean you love me

Just that you want me and you need my company

Driving through the night, it's so exciting

Turning off the light without another thought tonight

Ahaha



I don't want another drink or fight

I want a lover

I don't care whether it's wrong or right

I want a lover tonight (I want a lover tonight)

I don't want another drink or fight

I want a lover

I don't care whether it's wrong or right

I want a lover tonight

Tonight



(I want you, I want your love) - I want a lover

(I want you, I want your love) - I want a lover

(I want you, I want your love) - I want a lover (I want your love tonight)

Oooh

RICKIE LEE JONES lyrics - Ghostyhead

Ghostyhead, ghostyhead, standing in the door

You think if you don't answer

I can't hear you anymore

Chains you hung from ear to ear

Finally drug your head

But I can see through anything

I know what you bled

Ghostyhead, ghostyhead, you think that I can't see

The shadow of another girl

Each time you look at me

People came from far away to watch us drop you in

But ghostyhead the crowd is gone

Come back up again

Ghostyhead, ghostyhead

Come out on the porch

There's a serpent caught in a fisher's net

Virgins light the torch

'Cause who this night would not stay warm

By any light they could?

You just eat your bread and cake

And tell them it was good

PULP lyrics - A Little Soul

Hey man,

How come you treat your woman so bad?

That's not the way you do it.

No no no you shouldn't do it like that.

I could show you how to do it right.

I used to practice every night on my wife, now she's gone.

Yeah, she's gone.

You see your mother and me,

We never got along that well you see.



I'd love to help you

But everybody's telling me

You look like me

But please don't turn out like me.

You look like me

But you're not like me I know.

I had one, two, three,

Four shots of happiness.

I look like a big man

But I've only got a little soul.

I only got a little soul.



Yeah, I wish I could be an example.

Wish I could say I stood up for you

And fought for what was right.

But I never did.

I just wore my trenchcoat and stayed out every single night.

You think I'm joking?

Well, try me.

Yeah, try me.

Yeah come on, try me tonight.

I did what was wrong though I knew what was right.

I've got no wisdom that I want to pass on.

Just don't hang round here, no, I'm telling you son.

You don't wanna know me.

Oh, that's just what everybody's telling me.



And everbody's teling me

You look like me

But please don't turn into me.

You look like me

But you're not like me I hope.

I have run away form the one thing that I ever made.

Now I only wish that I could show you -

Wish I could show a little soul.

Wish I could show a little soul.

OZZY OSBOURNE lyrics - Diary Of A Madman

(Daisley - Kerslake - Osbourne - Rhoads)



Screaming at the window

Watch me die another day

Hopeless situation

Endless price I have to pay



Sanity now it's beyond me

There's no choice



Diary of a madman

Walk the line again today

Entries of confusion

Dear diary, I'm here to stay



Manic depression befriends me

Hear his voice

Sanity now it's beyond me

There's no choice



A sickened mind and spirit

The mirror tells me lies

Could I mistake myself for someone

Who lives behind my eyes?

Will he escape my soul

Or will he live in me?

Is he trying to get out

Or trying to enter me?



Voices in the darkness

Scream away my mental health

Can I ask a question

To help me save me from myself?



Enemies fill up the pages

Are they me

Monday 'till Sunday in stages

Set me free

THE MONKEES lyrics - Midnight Train

Now listen just a minute while I sing this song,

Don't you worry baby it won't take long.

I'm just about ready to draw the line,

So don't be surprised if I leave this time.



Well I'm goin' north and I'm goin' south

Don't want no more of your lyin' mouth.

I'm hittin' the road, gonna ring some bells,

Better know I can do it well.



[Chorus:]

Midnight train, ramblin' ramblin'

All night long I'm gamblin', gamblin'

Been losin' all my money and it really is funny, umm badda dum.

Midnight train, ramblin' ramblin'

Al night I'm gamblin', gamblin'

Well tell you what baby, well you better be movin' on.



Well I really don't know where I'm goin' for sure,

Ain't gotta map, it ain't no tour.

Just headin' out to the open sky,

Who knows, might even die.



Well don't you worry your pretty little head

'Cause you never gave a dang what I did or said.

That's why I'm packin' to leave this place

Can't stand to look at your cheatin' face.



[Chorus]



Well you treated me like a little boy

And played around like I was a toy.

Guess you thought I'd have the blues,

Look whose cryin', guess you lose.



[Chorus 2x]



It's about that time, better be movin' on

BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST lyrics - Watching You

Try to see it from the other side

Keep on looking for a place to hide

You don't have to tell me

It's easy to find

If you're trying to make your dreams come true

Then just keep on doing what you do

And if you don't break the rules

It's going to be fine

So I'm just sitting here

Watching for the dawn to break

Just sitting here

Waiting for the time it takes

I'm sitting here

Searching for a clue - watching you



Here, this is me

I'm living my life through the night constantly

Or so I've been told

Hope I can make it before I grow old

With love on my side

I could write you a song that would make your heart fly

So good for your soul

But there's something about you

That's leaving me cold



So I'm just sitting here

Watching for the dawn to break

Just sitting here

Waiting for the time it takes

I'm sitting here

Searching for a clue - watching you

VAN MORRISON lyrics - Bulbs

I'm kicking off from centre field

A question of being down for the game

The one shot deal don't matter

And the other one's the same



Oh! My friend I see you

Want you to come through (alright)

And she's standing in the shadows

Where the street lights all turn blue



She leaving for an American (uhuh)

Suitcase in her hand

I said her brothers and her sisters

Are all on Atlantic sand



She's screaming through the alley way

I hear the lonely cry, why can't you?

And her batteries are corroded

And her hundred watt bulb just blew



Lallallal.. alright...huhuhhuh



She used to hang out at Miss Lucy's

Every weekend they would get loose

And it was a straight clear case of

Having taken in too much juice



It was outside, and it was outside

Just the nature of the person

Now all you got to remember

After all, it's just show biz



Lallalal...huhuh...lallal



We're just screaming through the alley way

I hear her lonely cry, ah why can't you?

And she's standing in the shadows

Canal street lights all turn blue

And she's standing in the shadows

Where the street lights all turn blue

And she's standing in the shadows

Down where the street lights all turn blue

Hey, hey, yeah

UB40 lyrics - The Earth Dies Screaming

A warm dry wind is all that breaks the silence,

The highways quiet scars across the land.

People lie, eyes closed, no longer dreaming,

The earth dies screaming.

Like scattered pebbles, cars lie silent waiting,

Oilless engines seized by dirt and sand.

Bodies hanging limp, no longer bleeding,

The earth dies screaming.



The earth dies screaming

The earth dies screaming

Your country needs you, lets strike up the band.



The earth dies screaming

The earth dies screaming

Despite all odds we must defend our land.



Half eaten meals lie rotting on the tables,

Money clutched within a boney hand.

Shutters down, the banks are not receiving,

The earth dies screaming.

ALPHAVILLE lyrics - Thunder & Lightning

(Lyrics: Gold/music: Rusczcynski-Kruger-Gold)



I was walking in the rain

When the angel of my intuition whispered hello

And then i turned around there was you

Well, i was quite surprised to face that kind of incarnation

Love is always unexpected, love strikes blind and undirected

An it's amazing how my life

Became the wildest game of all

I never knew without your love

And since i fell for you i fail to brave the heavy weather

Raging round the axis of my heart

And i don't, i don't need to..

Whenever i see you i want thunder and lightning

Whenever i touch you i feel thunder and lightning

Whenever i hold you i feel better than the time before

That's what i want, thunder and lightning for evermore

There were times when i was down

There were times when all my hopes had faded

My whole life just seemed to be

A senseless quest for energy

But love is the answer, love is all we need my friend

Now you came & changed the weather

Now i wanna live forever

Yes i admit i'm playin' with powers

That i can't control

But i tell you, i will do the best i can

We're on a crash course plane

That's heading down to paradise

And that is the intention of the plan

And i don't need no heaven

What do you want? you know it!

What do you want then'

I tell you what i want!

I tell you what i need!!

I don't need no heaven!!!

I need thunder and lightning,

Don't need no heaven!!!!!!!!!

RICHARD THOMPSON lyrics - God Loves A Drunk

(Richard Thompson)



Will there be any bartenders up there in heaven?

Will the pubs never close? Will the glass never drain?

No more DTs and no shakes and no horrors

The very next morning, you feel right as rain



'Cause God loves a drunk, lowest of men

Like the dogs in the street and the pigs in the pen

But a drunk's only trying to get free of his body

And soar like an eagle high up there in heaven

His shouts and his curses they are just hymns and praises

To kick-start his mind now and then

O God loves a drunk, come raise up your glasses, amen



Does God really care for your life in the suburbs?

Your dull little life full of dull little things

And bring up the babies to be just like daddy

And maybe I'll be there when he gives out the wings



But God loves a drunk, although he's a fool

Oh he wets in his pants and he falls off his stool

And he can't hear the insults, and whispers go by him

As he leans in the doorway and he sings sally racket

He can't feel the cold rain beat down on his body

And soak through his clothes to the skin

O God loves a drunk, come raise up your glasses, amen



Will there be any pen-pushers up there in heaven?

Does crawling and wage-slaving win you God's love?

I pity you worms with your semis and pensions

If you think that'll get you to the kingdom above



Oh God loves a drunk, although he's a clown

Oh you can't help but laugh as he gags and falls down

But he don't give a curse for what people think of him

He screams at his demons alone in the darkness

He's staying alive for just one more pint bottle

Won't you throw him a few pennies, friend?

Ah God loves a drunk, for ever and ever, amen

RICHARD THOMPSON lyrics - Justice In The Streets

(Richard Thompson)



There's sickness in this land

Hearts have turned to sand

Crushed with an iron hand

There's justice in the streets



They fooled you for so long

You can't tell right from wrong

They are weak and you are strong

There's justice in the streets



Sometimes it seems a man can't hold his head up

To be just what he is he feels ashamed

They take away his dignity and freedom

But they can never take away the flame



Tired of living in shame

Tired of a ball and chain

Run them down like a train

There's justice in the streets



They've got you chained to a wheel

'Til you don't know how to feel

'Til you can't tell what's real

There's justice in the streets



How can you fight a man without a shadow

How can you fight a face you've never seen

A drop of rain will run into a river

O see the river wash the valley clean

MOTLEY CRUE lyrics - All In The Name Of

She's only fifteen

She's the reason-the reason that I can't sleep

You say illegal

I say legal's never been my scene

I try like hell but I'm out of control



All in the name of rock 'n' roll

For sex and sex I'd sell my soul



Pretty, pretty so innocent

She says you ain't seen nothing yet

Brings me a dirty, dirty magazine

There she was for all the world to see

I try like hell but I'm out of control. All in the name of rock 'n' roll

For sex and sex I'd sell my soul



Says to me daddy

Can I have some candy

Wanna be your nasty

Anytime you want

You know you can have me



All in the name of rock 'n' roll

FRANK SINATRA lyrics - Good-Bye

(Gordon Jenkins)



I'll never forget you.

I'll never forget you.

I'll never forget how we promised one day,

To love one another forever that way.

We said we'd never say, "Good-bye."



But that was long ago.

Now you've forgotten, I know.

No use to wonder why.

Let's say farewell with a sigh.

Let love die.



But we'll go on living,

Our own way of living.

So you take the high road and I'll take the low.

It's time that we parted,

It's much better so.

But kiss me as you go.

Good-bye.



But that was long ago.

Now you've forgotten, I know.

No use to wonder why.

Let's say farewell with a sigh.

Let love die.



But we'll go on living,

Our own way of living.

So you take that high road and I'll take the low.

It's time that we parted,

It's much better so.

But kiss you as you go.

Good-bye. Good-bye. Good-bye.

THE KINGSTON TRIO lyrics - Run The Ridges

(John Stewart)



Well, I hope to tell you, Johnny, that I lay that rifle down but leave the noose and the calaboose and headed for another town.



Well, I've got your name in San Jose and your picture's there to see.

And they're shootin' men in Texas just because they look like me.



[Chorus:]

And we will run the ridges of our green land Tennessee

And we will hide for forty years if that's what's meant to be, meant to be, meant to be.

Meant to be, meant to be, meant to be.



Maybe we could try Mexico and cross the desert sand,

But they're guardin' 'cross the border 'case we swim the Rio Grande



[Chorus]



Well, they'll rope and tie you, Johnny, and they'll throw you to the ground

And they'll let you hang a week or two 'fore they cut your body down.



[Chorus]

ZUCCHERO lyrics - Qui Sait?

Qui sait, qui sait?

J'aurai peut-etre un jour besoin de ca

D'une mai douce et puissante

Qui sait, qui sait?

D'un chemin plus sur, ou poser mes pas

Pour une guerre non violente

Tout seul

J'irai pas plus haut, mais peut-etre plus bas

Peut-etre plus bas

Qui sait, qui sait?

J'aurai sans doute besoin de toi, de toi

Si je ne suis plus le meme

Qui sait, qui sait?

On se dit toujouts "qui vivra verra", et moi

J'aimerais voir comme on s'aime

Apprends-moi

Que donner c'est recevoir en plus fort

Si je me fais attendre

Rappelle-moi

Que toutes les vies se valent encore

Les petites et les grandes

Qui sait, qui sait?

J'aurai peut-etre besoin de secours, un jour

Ou je n'aurai plus personne

Qui sait, qui sait?

Une douce phrase dans un matin sourd, qui court

Un petit feu pour les hommes

Who know if one day

I will need your smile to color my day, my day

If I can't see any rainbow

Qui sait, qui sait?

L'aube d'un regard qui ne juge pas, non pas

Mais qui partage les peines

Apprends-moi

Que donner c'est recevoir du soleil

Sans qu'on ne le demande

Rappelle-moi

Que toutes les vies se valent pareil

Les petites et les grandes

Oh qui sait, oh qui sait

Oh qui sait ce qu'on sera...

ERIC CLAPTON lyrics - Me And The Devil Blues

(Robert Johnson)



Early this morning,

You knocked upon my door,

Early this morning,

You knocked upon my door,

And I said, "Hello, Satan,

I believe it's time to go."



Me and the devil

Were walking side by side.

Me and the devil

Were walking side by side.

I'm gonna beat my woman

Until I get satisfied.



She said she don't see why,

That I will dog her 'round.

(Now baby, you know you ain't doing me right.)

She said she don't see why, That I will dog her 'round.

Well, it must be that old evil spirit

So deep down in the ground.



You may bury my body

Down by the highway side.

(I don't care where you bury my body when I'm dead and gone.)

You may bury my body

Down by the highway side.

Oh, my old evil spirit

Can take a Greyhound bus and ride.

PHIL COLLINS lyrics - I Cannot Believe It's True

When I opened your letter yesterday

I could not believe my eyes

'Cos I've already given all I have to give

And I think it must have slipped your mind

But I remember not so long ago

I gave it all, it's gone

And I gave it all to you

Now I'm living on borrowed time, but it's mine



Oh, d'you hear me?

I cannot believe it's true

Are you really doing the things you do.

No I cannot believe it's you, really you



Oh these people I'm talking to don't understand

They don't seem to realize

They're listening but they're not hearing me

They're being too cruel to be kind

Any kind of feeling that I had is gone

'Cos I gave it all, it's gone

And I gave it all to you

Now I'm living on borrowed time, but it's mine



Oh, d'you hear me?

I cannot believe it's true

Are you really doing the things you do.

No I cannot believe it's you, really you



Over and over I keep on telling myself

Over and over I hope I'm gonna make up

Over and over I know it's really happening

And there's nothing that I can say

'Cos nothing can change all the things that you've done to me

Nothing can make me stay



Oh, 'cos you know I cannot believe it's true

Are you really doing the things you do

No I cannot believe it's you, really you



I know it's a crying shame, it's all the same to you

It seems all so well laid out but I cannot get through

Never meant it to show

It started happening, that's all you know.



Oh, I gave it all to you

Now I'm living on borrowed time, but it's mine



Oh, d'you hear me?

I cannot believe it's true

Are you really doing the things you do

No I cannot believe it's you, really you



Over and over I keep on telling myself

Over and over I Hope I'm gonna make up

But over and over I know it's really happening

And there's nothing that I can say

'Cos nothing can change all the things that you do to me

Nothing can make me stay



'Cos you know I cannot believe it's true

Are you really doing the things you do

No I cannot believe it's you, really you

THE BYRDS lyrics - Baby, What You Want Me To Do

(J. Reed)



You got me runnin', you got me hidin'

You got me run hide, hide run

Anyway you want baby, oh yeah yeah yeah

You got me doin' what you want me

Baby what you want me to do



I'm goin' up, I'm goin' down

I'm goin' up down, down up

Anyway you want......



You got me seekin' ,you got me hidin'

You got me seek hide, hide seek

Anyway you want...

DIANA ROSS lyrics - Let's Go Up

(F. Gold/P. Ivers)



Comin' back on

Comin' back strong

Turnin' back on



Takin' the heat out in the street

Baby too long



Can you tell me how much fire

Will it take to get us higher



Hearin' the news, singin' the blues

You gotta choose

Stand up and fight, do it tonight

What can you lose

In a world of fading treasure

Love is the greatest pleasure



So let's go up, forget about down

'Cause in this town, it's gonna get rough

And what goes down, is up to us

So let's go up, baby let's go up



When it gets hot, like it or not

You want to run

Though it's so warm here in my arms

You won't get burned

In a world of fading treasures

The pleasure of your treasures

Can not be measured up



Ooh, I can't free a person from their charms

But I'll tell you this for sure

If nothing is ventured

Then nothing is gained, let's go

MISFITS lyrics - Fiend Without A Face

See the features of my rage

Begin to shoot the fiend without a face

My face



The fever rots

The brain goes numb inside

I feel the blackout coming

A boiled blister pops inside



My ears still bleed

With razor-sharp precision

Mouths that mouth the sweetness

Dank of final breath upon my chest



See the features of my rage

Begin to shoot the fiend without a face

My face



We lasted all night

The dogs keep up and snickering

Just stay with me one moment

Then I'll go away



My ears still bleed

With razor-sharp precision

I'll burn in hell

Before I plunge into life's darkness

Darkness



See the features of my rage

Begin to shoot the fiend without a face

See the features of my rage

Begin to shoot the fiend without a face

My face



A fiend without a face

A fiend without a face

A fiend without a face

A fiend without a face

K. D. LANG lyrics - Save Me

(K. D. Lang/Ben Mink)



Save me

Save me from you

But pave me

The way to you

Lead me upon the captive free

Gracious and tame like love can be

Lead me upon



Spoil me

Spoil me with you

And soil me with the world of you

Watch over me with a mother's eyes

Judging my worth only to glorify

Watch over me



Save me save me

Save me save me

Carry

Carry me through

And bury all my doubts of you

Clothe my desire with spell or prayer

I'll shroud every sign of need I swear

Clothe my desire



Save me save me

Save me save me

Save me save me

Save me save me

Save me save me

DAN FOGELBERG lyrics - Lessons Learned

You...with the past at your back and the future unsure

Asked for the chance to try love once more

Well aware of the consequences should the dream fall through

You threw down your last defenses wanting to try something new

Wanting to try something new

You found me in a sea of confusion drifting with the tide

Living on love that had long since died

But everytime that I touch you, baby

I feel a little more alive

And I'm reminded how much you've made me

Believe in the love that survives

You know, we must believe in the love that survives



[Chorus:]

Oh lessons learned are like bridges burned

You only need to cross them but once

Is the knowledge gained worth the price of the pain?

Are the spoils worth the cost of the hunt?

Are the spoils worth the cost of the hunt?

Borne on the first warm winds of feeling newly found



Fly but remember don't look down

Take as much as you think you ought to

Give just as much as you can

Don't forget what your failures have taught you

Or else you'll learn them all over again

Or else you'll have to learn them all over again



[Chorus]

JOAN ARMATRADING lyrics - Would You Like To Dance

Want you

And I don't know

What to do



Should I try to meet

You after work

By coincidence



Should I make a beeline

To your door ring your bell

Ask someone to introduce us



Hey baby would you like to dance

Would you like to see my yacht



Should I faint right at your feet

Walk right up and ask you

If you want to take a chance on me



Or start a conversation

With an old time melody



I'll treat you like a newborn child

Show a lot of self restraint



I want your loving

Can't live without you

Said I need your loving need your loving



Don't leave it too late

Said I need your loving need your loving



Hey baby would you like to dance

I'd show a lot of self restraint



I want your loving

Can't live without you

And I need your loving need your loving

Can't live without you

Said I need your loving need your loving



[Chorus:]

Hey baby would you like to dance

We could have a fine romance

Would you like to see my yacht

I'll give you every little thing I got



Treat you like a newborn child

Protect you from the world outside

Show a lot of self restraint



Until you say you're really ready



[Chorus]



Don't leave it too late

Said I need your loving, need your loving



[Chorus]

REBA MCENTIRE lyrics - 9 To 5

(Dolly Parton)



I'd like to tell you all just a little bit about my background. I grew up

in the Southeastern part of Oklahoma. In a little, bitty town called

Chockie. It was little, it only had 18 people it. That's 18 people, not

1,800. We're talkin' small. In that town in Southeastern Oklahoma, we had

a lot of fun growin' up, us kids. There was 3 things that my mama and

daddy always taught us. Number one, they taught us to work hard. Number

two, they told us, if you ever start a job - you finish it. And number

three, they said once you start that job you give it 110% of everything

you have. And we did. Not only is my daddy a hard workin' man, but my mama

is a hard workin' woman. And that's what she instilled in us three girls,

was to be hard workin' women. Now that's not to say we didn't have a lot

of fun, 'cause we did. Why, I can remember gettin' in that closet. Puttin'

on them high-heeled shoe



And I wanna dedicate it to all the hard-workin' women with us tonight!

Tumble outta bed and I stumble to the kitchen

Pour myself a cup of ambition

And yawn and stretch and try to come to life

I jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin'

Out on the street the traffic starts jumpin'

For folks like me on the job from 9 to 5



Workin' 9 to 5

What a way to make a livin'

Barely gettin' by

It's all takin' and no givin'

They just use your mind

And they never give you credit

It's enough to drive you

Crazy if you let it

9 to 5 for service and devotion

You would think that I

Would deserve a fair promotion

Want to move ahead

But the boss won't seem to let me

I swear sometimes that man is

Out to get me



Well, they let you dream just to watch 'em shatter

You're just a step on the boss man's ladder

But you've got dreams he'll never take away

Well you're in the same boat with a lot of your friends

Waitin' for the day, the ship to come in

And the tide's gonna turn and it's all gonna roll your way



Workin' 9 to 5

What a way to make a livin'

Barely gettin' by

It's all takin' and no givin'

They just use your mind

And they never give you credit

It's enough to drive you

Crazy if you let it

9 to 5 for service and devotion

You would think that I

Would deserve a fair promotion

Want to move ahead

But the boss won't seem to let me

I swear sometimes that man is

Out to get me



9 to 5, they got you where they want you

There's a better life

And you think about it don't ya

It's a rich man's game

No matter what they call it

And you'll spend your life

Puttin' money in his wallet



[Sung by background singers:]

Workin' 9 to 5

What a way to make a livin'

Barely gettin' by

It's all takin' and no givin'

They just use your mind

And they never give you credit

It's enough to drive you

Crazy if you let it

9 to 5 for service and devotion

You would think that I

Would deserve a fair promotion

Want to move ahead

But the boss won't seem to let me

I swear sometimes that man is

Out to get me

STEVE PERRY lyrics - Tuesday Heartache

(Perry, Taylor, Brewster, Lucas)



After the lovin', after the evening

Darlin' you're so deceiving, I know

I don't believe it you've got the answer

Darlin' it's soul disaster, I know



Tuesday heartache

Love comes, love goes

One day hard times

Too long ago



I don't believe you, when you say darlin'

It's somethin' so alarmin', oh I know

I wanna love ya

You want disaster, darling it's all

All the last time



Tuesday, heartache

Love comes, love goes

I don't show it, but someone's been told

Maybe, we're there, no don't you go

Tuesday heartache,

Love sounds unfold

Ooh, take your time baby



Tuesday heartache

Love comes, love goes

Tuesday, heartache, don't go away

(Tuesday heartache) no don't you go away

(Tuesday heartache) don't go away

When someone's deceiving they fall

Oh yeah

It's all right, all right

Fall, yes



After the lovin', after the evening

Ooh, when someone's deceiving, they fall

When someone's deceiving, they fall

Oh, no, no, no

So deceiving

With someone, someone, someone

They fall

AMERICA lyrics - Donkey Jaw

Ah, get behind me Satan

Quit ravishing the land

Does it take the children

To make you understand?



Ah, all across the nation

People don't understand

Does it take the children

To make a better land?



Then, get behind me Satan

Quit ravishing the land



Does it take the children

To make you understand?

Does it take the children

To make a better land?

DREAM THEATER lyrics - Through My Words

[Nicholas:]

All your eyes have ever seen

All you've ever heard

Is etched upon my memory

I spoken through my words



All that I take with me

Is all you've left behind

We're sharing one eternity

Living in two minds

Linked by an endless thread

Impossible to break

NIRVANA lyrics - Moist Vagina

She has a moist vagina

I particularly enjoy the circumference

I'll be sucking the warts off her anus (Alt: The circular walls of her anus)

I prefer her to any other



Marijuana



She had a moist vagina

I prefered her to any other



Marijuana

THE GO-GO'S lyrics - Yes Or No

(Wiedlin/Mael/Mael)



You're alone and I am too

You're my idea of a pretty view

You can move or so it seems

I bet we'd make a decent team



I'm not asking for all your time

A song or two would suit me fine

I'm not asking for you to say

That you'll be with me all the way



Shut your mind off for a while

Concentrate on the latest style

And everything's alright



[Chorus:]

Yes or no

I'll take it fast or slow

I'll make it easy for you to decide

Yes or no

You've got to let it go

Just take a stance

Either dance or tell me no



If you've got somewhere to be

If you've got someone besides me

Let me know don't put me on

If it's not right then I'll be gone



All those dancers can't be wrong

All those answers'd take too long

So tell me tell me now



[Chorus]

BONNIE TYLER lyrics - The Rose

(Amanda McBroo)



Some say love, it is a river

That drowns the tender reed

Some say love it is a razor

That leaves your soul to bleed

Some say love it is a a hunger

An endless aching need

I say love it is a flower

And you it's only seed



It's the heart afraid of breaking

That never learns to dance

It's the dream, afraid of waking

That never takes the chance

It's the one, who won't be taken

Who can not seem to give

And the soul afraid of dying

That never learns to live



When the night has been too lonely

And the road has been too long

And you think that love is only

for the lucky and the strong

Just remember in the winter

Far beneath the bitter snow

Lives a seed, that with the sun's love

In the spring becomes the rose

BOB DYLAN lyrics - Pressing On

Well I'm pressing on

Yes, I'm pressing on

Well I'm pressing on

To the higher calling of my lord.



Many try to stop me, shake me up in my mind

Say, "Prove to me that He is Lord, show me a sign"

What kind of sign they need when it all come from within

When what's lost has been found, what's to come has already been?



Well I'm pressing on

Yes, I'm pressing on

Well I'm pressing on

To the higher calling of my lord.



Shake the dust off of your feet, don't look back

Nothing can hold you down, nothing that you lack

Temptation's not an easy thing, Adam given the devil reign

Because he sinned I got no choice, it run in my vein.



Well I'm pressing on

Yes, I'm pressing on

Well I'm pressing on

To the higher calling of my lord.

MUDDY WATERS lyrics - Little Anna Mae

(McKinley Morganfield a. k.a. Muddy Waters)



Hush, ya'll hush, I heard little Anna Mae callin' my name

Hush, ya'll hush, I heard little Anna Mae callin' my name

Well, you know that girl kind-a lisp-tongued, she can't speak so doggone plain



Anna Mae, she's a good little girl, but, she loves to run around at night

Anna Mae, she's a good little girl, but, she loves to run around at night

Well, you know if I can get her mind on me, she'd be so fit to treat me right.



Bye-bye, Anna Mae, I hope we'll meet again someday

Bye-bye, Anna Mae, I hope we'll meet again someday

Well, now you won't be so doggone evil, baby, you better change your low down ways

DAVID GILMOUR lyrics - Love On The Air

(Gilmour - P. Townshend)



Love on the air

I keep transmitting but reception is hazy

I don't get an answer

Keep sending it faster

Always knew it was crazy

To put my love on the air.



No one will hurt me again

No one will cause me to lie

No one will control me by pain

No one will cause me to cry

I was looking for love

In wandering eyes

Like a ship trying to fix on a beacon

I learned how to sigh

On the ribbon and wires

It's a habit that's so hard to weaken



No one will ever manipulate

Make me promise to do or die

No one can make me hesitate

What can I lose if they try

I was looking for love

Like the very first time

Didn't realise love never left me

Contradicted - conspired

I connived and designed

Nothing on earth could arrest me.



Reception is hazy

When you put your love on the air

Always knew it was crazy

To put my love on the air

But I only communicate

When I put my love on the air

You don't have to consummate

Love on the air
