IRON MAIDEN lyrics - Gangland

(Adrian Smith and Clive Burr)



Shadows may hide you but also may be your grave

You're running today maybe tomorrow you'll be saved

You pray for daylight to save you for a while

You wonder if your children will face the killer's smile



Dead men - tell no tales

In Gangland - murders up for sale

Dead men - tell no tales

In Gangland - where jail birds die



Face at the window leers into your own

But it's only your reflection still you tremble in your bones

How long can you hide? How long 'till they come?

A rat in a trap but you've got to survive



Once you were glad to be free for a while

The air tasted good and the world was your friend

Then came the day when the hard times began

Now you're alone but alive for how long?



Dead men - tell no tales

In Gangland - murders up for sale

Dead men - tell no tales

In Gangland - where jail birds die



A knife at your throat another body on the pile

A contract to keep and it's service with a smile

Murder for vengeance or murder for gain

Death on the streets or a blacked out jail



Dead men - tell no tales

In Gangland - murders up for sale

Dead men - tell no tales

In Gangland - where jail birds die



In Gangland you tell no tales

CHER lyrics - How Can You Mend A Broken Heart

I can think of younger days

When living for my life

Was everything a man could want to do?

I could never see tomorrow

But I was never told about the sorrow



And how can you mend a broken heart?

How can you stop the rain from falling down?

How can you stop the sun from shining?

What makes the world go round?

How can you mend this broken man?

How can a loser ever win?

Please help me mend my broken heart

And let me live again



I can still feel the breeze

That rustles through the trees

And misty memories do days gone by

We could never see tomorrow

No one said a word about the sorrow

And how can you mend a broken heart?

How can you stop the rain from falling down?

How can you stop the sun from shining?

What makes the world go round?

How can you mend this broken man?

How can a loser ever win?

Please help me mend my broken heart

And let me live again

THE MANHATTAN TRANSFER lyrics - Fair And Tender Ladies

(M. Carter)



Come all ye fair and tender ladies

Take warning how you board young men

They're like a star on summer mornin'

They'll thirst a fear and then they're gone



They'll tell to you some lovin' story

And they make you think that they love you well

Then away they'll go and court some other

And leave you there in grief to dwell



I wish I was on some tall mountain

Where the ivy rocks are black as ink

I'd write a letter to my lost true lover

Whose cheeks are like the mornin' pink



For love is handsome, love is charming

And love is pretty while it's new

But love grows cold as love grows old

And fades away like the mornin' dew

And fades away like the mornin' dew

And fades away like the mornin' dew

SHOCKING BLUE lyrics - Don't You See

Don't you see if you need a friend

you've just to call me

Don't you see if you need some sweet

I'll be your candy.

I am waiting patiently

until the day comes that you gonna need me

and when love comes, let it come beautiful

let it be worth waiting for you

and let it be wonderful.

LOU REED lyrics - It Wasn't Me

It wasn't me who shamed you, it's not fair to say that

You wanted to work I gave you a chance at that

It wasn't me who hurt you, that's more credit that I'm worth

Don't threaten me with the things you'll do to you



It wasn't me who shamed you, it wasn't me who brought you down

You did it to yourself without any help from me

It wasn't me who hurt you, I showed you possibilities

The problems you had were there before you met me



I didn't say this had to be

You can't blame these things on me

It wasn't me, it wasn't me, it wasn't me

I know she's dead, it wasn't me



It wasn't me who changed you, you did it to yourself

I'm not an excuse for the hole you dropped in

I'm not simple minded but I'm not father to you at all

Death exists but you do things to yourself



I never said give up control

I never said stick a needle in your arm and die

It wasn't me, it wasn't me, it wasn't me

I know she's dead but it wasn't me



It wasn't me who shamed you, who covered you with mud

You did it to yourself without any help from me

You act as I could've told you or stopped you like some god

But people never listen and you know that that's a fact



I never said slit your wrists and die

I never said throw your life away

It wasn't me, it wasn't me, it wasn't me

You're killing yourself, you can't blame me

DELBERT MCCLINTON lyrics - In The Midnight Hour

I'm gonna wait 'til the Midnight hour

That's when my love comes tumblin' down

I'm gonna wait 'til the Midnight hour

When there's nobody else around

I'm gonna take you, girl, and hold you

And do all the things I told you

In the Midnight hour

Oh, yes I am, baby



I'm gonna wait 'til the stars come out

And see that twinkle in your eye

I'm gonna wait 'til the Midnight hour

That's when my love begins to shine

You're the only girl I know

Who can really love me so

In the Midnight hour

Yeah, in the Midnight hour



I'm gonna take you, girl, and hold you

And do all the things I told you

In the Midnight hour

Oh, yes, I am, baby



In the Midnight hour

I'm gonna make love to you

I'm gonna make you feel my power

Oh, hold on, baby

Yeah, until the Midnight hour

Won't be long baby

Yeah, 'til the Midnight hour

JUDAS PRIEST lyrics - Steeler

(Tipton/Halford/Downing)



Catch the play now, eye to eye

Don't let chances pass you by

Always someone at your back

Biding their time for attack



Check for decoys, stay sharp edged

Double-crossers get your head

Carpet-baggers bluff and strike

Kiss of Judas, spider like



Waiting like jackals to sneak up and trick you

Wolves in sheeps clothing, slow death in consoling

Lurking in shadows, they pounce least expected

When you come to, they'll have gone right through you



Tricksters, jilters play their game

Sleight-of-handers, all the same

Masquerader in his lair

Wants to tangle in your hair

DIO lyrics - Losing My Insanity

Someone said

You'll light up the universe

It's there in your head then

Crazy comes to call



Break me down

I'm only an everyone

Running from free

Running from me



And though it's not of my choosing

I'm losing my insanity

Again



Someone said

Forever was yesterday

So open your head when

Crazy comes around



Break me down

I'm only an innocent

Howl at the moon

Knowing that soon



And though it's always confusing

I'm losing my insanity



Round and round

Like the wheels in my mind

Round and round and down and down and down

And down and down



Someone said

Believe in your otherside

It's there in your head and

Waiting for a ride



Break me down

Ah once I was everything

Breaking the law

Quick on the draw



And though it's not of my choosing

I'm losing my insanity

Again

ELLA FITZGERALD lyrics - How About Me?

It's over

All over

And soon somebody else will make a fuss about you

But how about me?



It's over

All over

And soon somebody else will tell his friends about you

But how about me?



You'll find somebody new

But what am I to do?

I'll still remember you

When you have forgotten



And maybe

A baby

Will climb upon your knee and put its arms about you

But how about me?

REBBIE JACKSON lyrics - Forever Young

[From the Movie "Free Willy 2"]



May God bless and keep you always

May your wishes all come true

May you always do for others

And let others do for you

May you build a ladder to the stars

Climb on every rung

May you stay forever young



[Chorus:]

Forever young, forever young

May you stay forever young



May you grow up to be righteous

May you grow t bo true

May you always know the truth

And see the lights surrounding you

May you always be courageous

Stand upright and be strong

May you stay forever young



[Chorus]



May your hands always be busy

May your feel always be swift

May you have a strong foundation

When the winds are changing shift

May your heart always be joyful

May your song always be sung

And may you stay forever young



[Chorus]

DOLLY PARTON, LORETTA LYNN, TAMMY WYNETTE lyrics - Please Help Me I'm Falling (In Love With You)

(Don Robertson/Hal Blair)



Please help me, I'm falling

In love with you

Close the door to temptation

Don't let me walk through

Turn away from me, darling

I'm begging you to

Please help me, I'm falling

In love with you

I belong to another

Whose arms have grown cold

But I promised forever

To have and to hold

I can never be free, dear

But when I'm with you

I know that I'm losing

The will to be true



Please help me, I'm falling

And that would be sin

Close the door to temptation

Don't let me walk in

For I mustn't want you

But, darling, I do

Please help me, I'm falling

In love with you

SUZANNE VEGA lyrics - Predictions

Let's tell the future

Let's see how it's been done.

By numbers. By mirrors. By water.

By dots made at random on paper.



By salt. By dice.

By meal. By mice.

By dough of cakes.

By sacrificial fire.



By fountains. By fishes.

Writing in ashes.

Birds. Herbs.

Smoke from the altar.



A suspended ring or the mode of laughing

Pebbles drawn from a heap

One of these things

Will tell you something.



Let's tell the future

Let's see how it's been done.

By dreams. By the features. By letters.

By dropping hot was into water.



By nails reflecting the rays of the sun.

By waling in a circle.

By red hot iron.

By passages in books.

A balanced hatchet.



A suspended ring or the mode of laughing

Pebbles drawn from a heap

One of these things

Will tell you something.



Let's tell the future

Let's see how it's been done.

How it's been done.

CAROLE KING lyrics - Computer Eyes

Computer Eyes - it hurts to tell you I don't really want you

But I know if I leave you, it won't really grieve you

'Cause y'really don't have a soul to haunt you



Computer Eyes - you made me happy for a while but now I'm going

The coldness that you show me tells me you don't know me

And that leaves our love so little room for growing



Don't want to program making love

I like it real and with feeling

And every time y'say you love or you're thinking of me

It's like I kind of get the feeling that I'm stealing



Computer Eyes - I must have been crazy to ever try you

Y'see, I'm just a human being, and I don't like what I'm seeing

So you're gonna have to find another computer eyes to lie to



Computer Eyes - you're gonna have to learn to cry

SPARKS lyrics - Fa La Fa Lee

(Ron Mael)



Fa la fa lee, she ain't heavy she's a brother to me

What I need, she can't be

Nature, nurture, who's to say?

But still fa la, fa lee

Anything between us is a felony



Fa la fa lee, she thinks only of the higher parts of me

Such a shame, were I she

I'd set my sights much lower then I'd sing

fa la fa la fa lee

But as it stands now that would be a felony



I sing fa la fa lee, but as it stands now

that would be a felony

JANE'S ADDICTION lyrics - Ain't No Right (Live)

I am skin and bones, I am pointy nose;

But it motherfuckin' makes me try.

Makes me try, and that ain't no wrong.

I'll tell you why...

There ain't no right!

Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right.

Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right.

Only pleasure and pain.

Motherfuckin' bad wind came, blew down my home.

Now the green grass grows.

Bad wind came, blew down my home.

Goddamn goodness knows!

Where green grass grows there can't be wrong.

And goodness knows, there ain't no right!

Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right.

Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right.

Only pleasure and pain.



Bumped my head, I'm a battering ram.

Goddamn took the pain.

Cut myself, said 'So what?'

Motherfuckin' took the pain.

Said 'So what?'

I can't be wrong.

I thought so but there ain't no right!

Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right.

Ain't no wrong now, ain't no right.

Only pleasure and pain.

DONNA SUMMER lyrics - In Another Place And Time

I can't lie

I was attracted too

Somehow the feelings

Were so strong inside

But I'm not free to be

In love with you maybe

Things would be different

In another place and time



And I can't give you

All you want me to

And I know you deserve

The best from me

But I can't give you more

Of all that you long for

I would have loved you

In another place and time



Dreams aren't always bound to come true

But that's no reason you should cry



'Cos I would have loved you

Really loved you

In another place and time



I'm hurting deep inside

Just want you to know

Oh, I would have loved you

Oh yeah, in another place and time



Fate can't always be led by you

The time ain't right for you and I



In another place and time

In another place and time...

BARBRA STREISAND lyrics - Honey Can I Put On Your Clothes

Honey, honey, can I put on your clothes?

Because they feel so good

And they feel like you

Oh, won't you please let me

Because they get to me

They touch me and then move me

I get to thinking I won't be needin'

Anything more to keep me warm

I feel the feeling of you

Al1 the way through

No other feeling will ever do

Honey, honey,

Can I put on your clothes?

Because they feel so good

And they feel like you

They're just like old friends

When we're together

They comfort me and soothe me

They're not brand new

They're a little worn through,

But they're comfy and roomy

They do something to me

And when I stay at home

And you're far away

I won' t be lonely all through the day

Honey, honey,

Can I put on your clothes?

Because they feel so good

And they feel like you

I feel the feeling of you

All the day through

No other feeling will ever do

Honey, honey,

Can I put on your clothes?

Because they feel so good

And they feel like you...

Honey, honey, honey. . .Hum...

VELVET REVOLVER lyrics - Spay

(Velvet Revolver)



Wasted all a disgrace

Rearranged the pretty messes

Pray on your abandoned knee

To fucked up pleasures

To the kids with king of rights

Underneath the night tonight



You would rather spite your face

Than change your life

Spay

Why won't you

Why won't you

Why won't you spay yourself

Spay

Why won't you

Why won't you

Why won't you spay yourself



Blitzkrieg the bitches bald

May the trophy sell the gold

Pay the toll of sell your soul

Come one come all

When the bill is on collections



Pepper holes and ugly messes

The singer sings of diamond things

And all excesses

Spay

Why won't you

Why won't you

Why won't you spay yourself

Spay

Why Won't you

Why won't you

Why Won't you spay yourself



There is a love that still doesn't lease

Through the night

Heed all your baggage

And consume all your life



Spay

Why won't you

Why won't you

Why won't you spay yourself

Spay

Why won't you

Why won't you

Why won't you spay yourself

Spay

Why won't you

Why won't you

Why won't you spay yourself

VINCE GILL lyrics - Shoot Straight From Your Heart

(Vince Gill)



There's no need to hide anything

Baby just know what you bring

Will always be enough

All of those things that you do

Are the reasons that I fell for you

And why, I believe in us



[Chorus:]

Baby shoot straight from your heart

You'll never miss your mark

Baby always shoot straight from your heart

Let truth be the path that you choose

There ain't no way we can lose

Baby always shoot straight from your heart



We're gonna make some mistakes

'Cause baby I sure ain't no saint

I swear I'm in for the long haul

It doesn't matter how far

I love you just how you are

I will answer when you call



[Chorus]

RICHARD THOMPSON lyrics - The Angels Took My Racehorse Away

(Richard Thompson)



Well the angels came to see me today

Said "We've taken your racehorse away"

And I believe it was that bookmaker from crail

I believe that he put one in her pail

All the finest in the field

Only measured to her shoulders, they only ever see her heels

And I believe (I believe) every sporting man will cry

I believe (I believe) to see his income pass him by



She won the Lanark Silver Bell and she stole every heart away

She stood her stand at sixteen hands and I'd ride her easy

But they've taken her away, they've taken my racehorse away



There's a racecourse in the sky

And that's where all the racing horses must go by and by

And I believe (I believe) every steward, lord and groom,

I believe (I believe) that they're calling her name



She would look at me in the eyes and that was all she had to say

She stood her stand at sixteen hands and I'd ride her easy

But they've taken, they've taken my racehorse away

They've taken my racehorse away

They've taken my racehorse away

They've taken my racehorse away

They've taken my racehorse away

They've taken my racehorse away.

DOLLY PARTON lyrics - Save The Last Dance For Me

(Doc Pomus/Mort Shuman)



You can dance

Every dance with the girl who gives you the eye

Let her hold you tight

You can smile

Every smile for the girl who'd like to treat you right

'Neath the pale moonlight

But don't forget who's takin' you home

And in who's arms you're gonna be

Oh, darlin' save the last dance for me

Oh I know

That the music's fine like sparklin' wine

Go and have your fun

Dance and sing

But while we're apart, don't give your heart to anyone

And don't forget who's takin' you home

And in who's arms you're gonna be

Oh, darlin', save the last dance for me

You can dance

Go and carry on till the night is gone

And it's time to go

If she asks

If you're all alone, can she take you home

You must tell her no



And don't forget who's takin' you home

And in who's arms you're gonna be

Oh, darlin', save the last dance for me

And don't forget who's takin' you home

And in who's arms you're gonna be

Oh, darlin', save the last dance for me

NEIL DIAMOND lyrics - At Night

At night

On some dark quiet street

Baby, that's where we meet

When day is through



They say

That our love isn't right

So I wait for each night to be with you



Till they realize

Our love's not some passing phase

We'll just meet at night and pray there

For better days



I wait for the darkness to come

Till we can walk in the sun,

We'll meet at night



I wait

For the darkness to come

Till we can walk in the sun,

We'll meet at night, at night.....



At night, come on, come on, now love

LYLE LOVETT lyrics - Cryin' Shame

(Lyle Lovett)



You got you some legs baby

That just won't quit

You got a pretty boy

And he looks pretty hip

You got you one on the sly

But you gave him the slip

And that's just a cryin' shame



'Cause you love the boy

With pretty green eyes

And you love the boy

Who says he's so clever and wise

And you love the boy

Who's always telling you lies

And that's just a cryin' shame



Sometimes it never quits raining

Sometimes that phone just won't ring

Sometimes I never miss nothing

And sometimes I miss anything



But you like 'em tall when it's raining

And you like 'em dark when you're feeling no pride

But you never felt anything that you wanted to hide

And that's just a cryin' shame



So he says you look lovely my dear

You say thank you I'm fine

And you spend all his money

And you spend all his time

And you spend the night

Like you were spending a dime

And that's just a cryin' shame

JACKSON 5 / THE JACKSONS lyrics - The Hurt

(Michael & Randy Jackson, David Paich & Steve Porcaro)



You use my love

To quench your desire

You play with me

You're playing with fire

I give my heart to take you higher

This is my only one desire

We can't get along

You won't come home



Yesterday I found you in his arms

Seducing him with all your charms

You know you really hurt me so

I need you

And I won't let go



Can't get away, babe

Can't get along, mama

Can't get away, babe

Though you hurt me so



Ooh ooh, babe



You got me cryin' in my sleep

I close my eyes

It's you I see

You might be somewhere else, I know

My heart says not to let you go

Oh, babe

My hurt is strong deep in my soul

It hurts my head down to my toes

I won't let go

You make me wild

You need me girl

You know I'll die



Can't get away, babe

Can't let you go, mama

I can't get away, babe

Though you hurt me so

Can't get away, babe

Can't let you go, mama

Can't get away

Though you hurt me so



Oh no, no, no, no, no

Lord help us

You hurt me so

You leave me

How can you leave me here

No place to go

Lord help us

You hurt me so

You left me here

And I can't

I can't get away, babe



Spoken:

You made it hurt

So deep in my soul



Can't get away, babe

Can't get away, babe

Can't let you go, mama

Though you hurt me so



Can't get away, babe

Can't let you go, mama

Can't get away, babe

Though you hurt me so



Oh no, no, no, no, no



I wonder

I wonder why



You got me cryin' in my sleep, babe

You that I see

Oh, oh, baby

UB40 lyrics - Promises And Lies

All the sorrow and the pain

All the sacrifice in vain

I was much too blind to see

You make a loser out of me

You put me down for oh so long

While you sang your serpent's song



The rest is history

You can do no more to me

I've been down so low

Had nowhere left to go

I could see it in your eyes

All your promises were lies

Promises and lies



Your cut was quick and deep

But then you thought you'd never need a friend

But all things change, and tides must turn

And you let all your bridges burn

Too many fatal wounds to heal



The rest is history

You can do no more to me

I've been down so low

Had nowhere left to go

I could see it in your eyes

All your promises were lies

Promises and lies

CHEAP TRICK lyrics - Miss Tomorrow

Strange... how funny things can be

Strange... the things you said to me

Scream... I could of laughed until I cried

Strange... I could of took you for my bride



Here she comes, miss Tomorrow

Here she comes (here she comes), miss Tomorrow

Here she comes, miss Tomorrow

Here she comes (here she comes), miss Tomorrow



Cold... you left me froze to the bone

Cold... your lips were like kissing stone

Love... you said that love is all you need

Cold... you taught the Beatles let it bleed



Here she comes, miss Tomorrow

Here she comes (here she comes), miss Tomorrow

Here she comes, miss Tomorrow

Here she comes (here she comes), miss Tomorrow

[Repeat 3x]

SMOKEY ROBINSON lyrics - You're The One For Me

The first time I laid eyes on you

I had an instant suspicion

To be with you would become

My life's ambition.



I knew right away, from the very first day

That somewhere down the line

I'd wake up to see you lying right next to me,

You'd be mine, all mine, all mine.



[Chorus:]

You're the one for me, baby

Yeah, you're the one baby

You're the one for me

Anyone can see baby, yeah

You're the one baby, you're the one for me.



Opportunity comes knockin'

In the form of somebody new, but I don't answer

‘Cause the door to my heart is only open to you.

Temptation around, staring me down, right in my face...

But, nobody could ever take you're place

No one could fill your space.



[Chorus:]

You're the one for me, baby

Yeah, you're the one baby

You're the one for me, well, well, well

Anyone can see baby, yeah

You're the one baby, you're the one for me.



Nobody could ever make me feel good

Like you do, ooh ooh

Nobody, but nobody, could ever thrill me so oh

I've got my mind made up about you

And I know, I know, it's you, it's you.



Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, you're the one

Oh yeah, you're the one now

Anyone can see baby, yeah

You're the one baby, you're the one for me.



Baby you're the one

You're the one

You're the one

Ooh ooh ooh ooh yes, mm mm.

BARBRA STREISAND lyrics - My Father's Song

Whatever you are you're goin' to be

Whatever you are is all right with me

You're gonna be what you want anyway

These are the words I heard my father say

When I was a young girl

And shy of men

He said when you're ready

You'll know just when

And when I was taken and thrown away

There wasn't a reason to face the day

And so he said:



Whatever you are you're goin' to be

Whatever you are is all right with me

You're gonna be what you want anyway

These are the words I heard my father say



My father's song is clear and easy

And though he's gone he lives in my heart

When I go wrong I swear he sees me

And he smiles for a star, and he says:



Wherever you are I'm here by your side

My life is a rope that won't come untied

Oh, I'm gonna stand by you right or wrong

These are the words within my father's song

Uh..Oh...Ah...Mmm...Uh!

These are the words within my father's song

VAN DER GRAAF GENERATOR lyrics - La Rossa

Lacking sleep and food and vision,

here I am again, encamped upon your floor,

craving sanctuary and nourishment,

encouragement and sanctity and more.

The streets seemed very crowded,

I put on my bravest guise -

I know you know that I am acting,

I can see it in your eyes.

In the harsh light of freedom I know

that I cannot deny that I have wasted time,

have frittered it away in idle boasts

of my freedom and fidelity

when simpler words would have profited me most...

...it isn't enough in the end,

when I'm looking for hope.

Though the organ monkey screams

as the pipes begin to spit

still he'll go through the dance routines

just as long as he thinks they'll fit,

just as long as he knows that it's dance,

smile - or quit.



Like the monkey I dance to a strange tune:

when all of these years I've longed to lie with you,

I've bogged myself down in the web of talk,

quack philosophy and sophistry -

at physciality I've always baulked,

like the man in the chair who believes it's

beyond him to walk.

I've been hiding behind words,

fearing a deeper flame exists,

faintly aware of the passage

of opportunities I have missed.



But the nearness and the smell of you,

La Rossa from head to toe....

I don't know what I'm telling you,

but I think you ought to know:

soon the dam wall will break,

soon the water will flow.

Though the organ-monkey groans

as the organ-grinder plays

he's hoping, at the most,

for an end to his dancing days...

still he hops up and down on his perch

in the usual jerky way.

Though this might mean an end to all friendship,

there's something I'm working up to say.



Think of me what you will:

I know that you think you feel my pain -

no matter if that's just the surface.

If we made love now would that change all that ahs gone before?

Of course it would, there's no way

it could ever be the same...

one more line crossed,

one more mystery explained.

Now I need more than just words,

though the options are plain

that lead from all momentary action.

If we make love now it will change all

that is yet to be...

never could we agree in the same way again.

One more world lost, one more heaven gained.



La Rossa, you kow me,

you read me as though I am glass;

though I know it

there's no way in which I can pass -

though it means that you'll finish my story

at last I'd trade all the clever talk,

the joking, the smoking and the quips, all the midnight conversations, all the friendship,

all the words and all the trips

for the warmth of your body,

the more vivid touch of your lips.



All bridges burning behind me,

all safety beyond reach:

the monkey feels his chains out blindly,

only to find himself released.

Take me, take me now and hold me deep

inside your ocean body,

wash me as some flotsam to the shore,

there leave me lying evermore!

Drown me, drown me now and hold me down

before your naked hunger,

burn me at the altar of the night--

give me life!

CHRIS REA lyrics - That Girl Of Mine

There's a time and place everywhere I go

Where the river meets the sea

Somewhere between the gates of dreams

And the turning of the key

There's a cutting edge there's a real fine line

And it's caught in come and go

And you're leaving what you thought you knew

To what you've come to know

When the twilight turns at the end of day

And the angels kiss the moon

There's a diamond sun everywhere she goes

And there ain't no other way

I'm gonna dream tonight

By that pale moonlight

till the morning comes my way



I'm walking tall

And I'm walking fine

And I'm up there

With that girl of mine



And I'm standing in the twilight now

Yeah I'm standing by her side

Oh I'm gazing in that gate of dreams

Underneath that midnight sky

'Cos there's a diamond sun everywhere she goes

And there ain't no other way

I'm gonna dream tonight

By that pale moonlight

till the morning comes my way



I'm walking tall

And I'm walking fine

And I'm up there

With that girl of mine

JOHN KAY lyrics - Drift Away

Day after day I'm more confused

But I look for the light through the pouring rain

You know that's a game that I hate to lose

I'm feelin' the strain...now ain't that a shame



Oh gimme the beat boys and free my soul

I wanna get lost in the rock and roll and drift away

Gimme the beat boys and free my soul

I wanna get lost in the rock and roll and drift away



Beginning to think that I'm wasting time

And I don't understand the things I do

The world outside looks so unkind

Now it's up to you...to carry me through



Chorus



And when my mind is free

You know a melody can move me

And when I'm feelin' blue

The guitars coming through to soothe me

Thanks for the joy you've given me

I want you to know I believe in song

Rhythm, rhyme and harmony

They've helped me along...they're making me strong

GLORIA ESTEFAN lyrics - It's Too Late

Stayed in bed all mornin' just to pass the time

There's somethin' wrong here there can be no denyin'

One of us is changin'

Or maybe we've just stopped tryin'



And it's too late baby

Now it's too late

Tho' we really did try to make it

Somethin' inside has died

And I can't hide and I just can't fake it



It used to be so easy living here with you

You were light and breezy and

I knew just what to do

Now you look so unhappy and I feel like a fool



And it's too late baby

Now it's too late

Tho' we really did try to make it

Somethin' inside has died and I can't hide

I just can't fake it



There'll be good times again for me and you

But we just can't stay together

Don't you feel it too?

Still I'm glad for what we had and how I once loved you



And it's too late baby

Now it's too late

Tho' we really did try to make it

Somethin' inside has died and I can't hide

I just can't fake it

It's too late baby

It's too late

Now darlin'

It's too late

BRIAN WILSON lyrics - God Only Knows

I may not always love you

But long as there are stars above you

You never need to doubt it

I'll make you so sure about it



God only knows what I'd be without you



If you should ever leave me

Though life would still go on believe me

The world could show nothing to me

So what good would living do me



God only knows what I'd be without you



God only knows what I'd be without you



If you should ever leave me

Well life would still go on believe me

The world could show nothing to me

So what good would living do me



God only knows what I'd be without you

God only knows what I'd be without you

God only knows

God only knows what I'd be without you

God only knows what I'd be without you

God only knows

God only knows what I'd be without you

God only knows what I'd be without you

God only knows

God only knows what I'd be without you

God only knows what I'd be without you

God only knows

God only knows what I'd be without you

God only knows what I'd be without you

God only knows

God only knows what I'd be without you

God only knows what I'd be without you

God only knows

God only knows what I'd be without you

ZUCCHERO lyrics - Senza Rimorso

(Zucchero - Salerno)



Torni qui, ma senza un rimorso

Che cosa sono? un pronto soccorso?

Ti guardi in giro, sei cosi confusa

Ma cosa vuoi?



Per te e facile

arrivare cosi

Con la faccia di una brutta giornata

Che cosa vuoi?



Penso a me,

perduto in questi anni

Penso a te,

chi ha preso i tuoi sorrisi

Penso a noi,

e a tutti i disinganni

Oh no, di nuovo qui!



Sei di nuovo qui, ma senza un rimorso

Non sono mica un pronto soccorso

Avanti bevi che ti fara bene

Siedi li

Trastullandoci il tempo e passato

Nel lentischio dei si e dei no

Tanto e vero che l'amore e ferito

Trastullandosi si allontano



Penso a me,

perduto in questi anni

Penso a te,

chi ha preso i tuoi sorrisi

Penso a noi,

a tutti i disinganni

Oh no di nuovo qui



Quanta pioggia, scende a fiumi

Nelle strade, che se ne va

Meno soli (forse), ma un po piu vivi

Nell'estate che se ne va

In questa notte verso di noi



Eh non sarai piu sola,

Per me sei sempre bella e pura

Puoi sentirmi?



Penso a me,

dagli occhi chiusi e insonni

Dentro te

nel buio del mattino

Penso a noi

e a nuovi disinganni

Oh no, di nuovo qui!



Penso a me,

ti faccio da mangiare

Penso a te,

stanotte vorrai dormire

Penso a noi,

da soli non si puo stare

Oh no di nuovo qui...

...va bene...

Oh no di nuovo qui..

T. REX lyrics - Broken-Hearted Blues

This is a song, that I wrote when I was young,

And I call it, the broken hearted blues,

The air on that night, was tempered like a knife,

And the people wore the face masks of a clown,

Don he was long, mis-shapen and forlorn,

And his woman ran away without a smile.



Days of the earth, are unbroken changeless turf,

But the faces of the men are something else.

In the wind, as a boy, was a spacious sexual toy,

But baby, now he's a toothless baggy man,

When the hills of the sun, make you feel that you are young,



Get good now, and face your face into the wind.

This is a song, that I wrote when I was young,

And I called it the broken hearted blues.

QUEEN lyrics - Action This Day

(Taylor)



Action

This street honey is a mean street

Living in thsi street honey needsa a mean

streak

We've got criminals living in this street

But there's a heartbeet pulse that keeps on

pumping

Like a jukebox playing the same dead record

Or a radio in the corner keeps blaring

I gotta feeling, this world is using me

This town honey is a dead town

Living in this town honey is a showdown

But there's a heartbeat pulse that keep in

pumping

Some sunshine ray through a crack in a

shutter

Or a sight of a light at

The end of a tunnel

Still there's a feeling, this world is using me

Action this day

Action this night

We've gotta learn to learn to live to love

You can't say it ain't right

Action this day

Action this night

You've got the power, you've got the power

You've got the power to love and to live

You can't say it ain't right

Your mind honey is a bleak place

Living in your mind's living in a bleak place

Your mind is coming from a rat racce

But there's a heartbeet pulse that keeps on

pumping

Like a jukebox playing the same dead record

Or a radio in the corner keeps blaring

I gotta feeling that just won't quit, this

world is using me

Action this day

Action this night

We've gotta learn to learn to live to love

We can't say it ain't right

Action this day

Action this night

You've got the power, you've got the power

You've got the power to love, to live

You can't say it ain't right

Action

Action this day

BRENDA LEE lyrics - Crying Time

(Buck Owens)



Oh, its crying time again your gonna leave me.

I can see that far away look in your eyes

I can tell by the way that you hold me,

That it won't be long before its crying time



Now they say that absence makes the heart grow fonder,

And that tears are only rain to make love grow

Oh, my love for you could never grow no stronger,

If I live to be a hundred years old



Now its crying time again cause your leaving.

I can see that far away look in your eyes.

I can tell by the way you hold me darling,

That it won't be long before its crying time



Now, you say you found someone that you love better,

That's the way it's happened every time before

And as sure as the sun comes up tomorrow,

Crying time will have start when you walk out that door



Oh, it's crying time again your gonna leave me,

I can see that far away look in your eyes

Oh I can tell by the way you hold me darling,

That it won't be long before its crying time

No, it won't be long before its crying time

BUDDY & JULIE MILLER lyrics - I'm Too Used To Lovin You

(Julie and Buddy Miller)



I leave the light on at my backdoor

Though you don't come around here no more

And the mailbox still has your name

Cause I forget it's not the same



I close my eyes when I'm in bed

But that don't get you out of my head

And I can't sleep but when I do

You're in my dreams

I wake up and reach for you



I'm too used to

I'm to used to

Got too used to loving you



I talk to you it's just like you're here

Though I know you are no where near

I left your things all out where they are

And they remain (just like the) love that's in my heart



Cause I'm too used to

I'm to used to

Got too used to loving you



I can't seem to face the fact

I keep prayin that you'll come back

I don't want nobody new

I'm too used to loving you



I'm too used to

I'm to used to

Got too used to loving you

GENESIS lyrics - She's So Beautiful

Cool as ice yet brittle as glass

A nervous wreck with a sweet facade

You're breaking up

You're breaking up now baby

You're breaking up your life

Into little pieces

Baby



Vanity arrived with fame

How she loved to see her name

She is beautiful, very beautiful

Look at her, and she's a model



Hey girl I love you but you won't listen

To what I'm trying to say

Things won't work out if you plan them now

Don't throw your love away

Give it up, baby

Honey give it up and come back to me



You know your just an able sum

To get more money

For them you're just a product

For me you're the one I love

Baby



Vanity arrived with fame

How she loved to see her name

She is beautiful, very beautiful

Look at her, and she's a model



Hey girl I love you but you won't listen

To what I'm trying to say

Things won't work out if you plan them now

Don't throw your love away

Give it up, baby

Honey give it up and come back to me



Cool as ice yet brittle as glass

A nervous wreck with a sweet facade

You're breaking up

You're breaking up now baby

You're breaking up your life

Into little pieces

Baby



Don't take my love away from my arms

Oh no, I need her near me every single day

Please don't take her away

I need my love

TANITA TIKARAM lyrics - World Outside Your Window

Everyone has said that I might go

'Cos my red suitcase and my ray-bans

Weren't quite so

I'd bear the heavy wind and rain that falls

I'll never come back again

'Cos you know I laugh when winter shows her hand

Well, that picture framed the saddest thing you'll see

But it bought me time and a place that love could be

And since I'm going now please rearrange

'Cos I'd like to think that things have changed

I don't believe you'll be open anymore



Tell me if, you want to see

A world outside your window

A world outside your window isn't free

And tell me if you wanna catch that feeling of redemption

That feeling of redemption doesn't do much for me



Well, everyone was hoping you would stay a while

Tell us 'bout that great land in the south

I see that man - now ain't he under offer?

I tell you child you go wash out your mouth



Tell me if, you want to see

A world outside your window

A world outside your window isn't free

And tell me if you wanna catch that feeling of redemption

That feeling of redemption doesn't do much for me



What can you say

I'm hiding in the belfry

What can you say - I want to catch time

How can you say you know anything about me

Well I knew about you - but I won't care about you



Everyone has come to see. Well somethings have to do

Flowers out for this photographic haunt, but they all pass me by

But the age is not a funny game, it don't give such a buzz

And when I winced with ignorance

I had to kiss this dust

GLENN HUGHES lyrics - Push!

Make you wanna do it

Well, I could be wrong and I would be right

But my mind's made up - now I see the light

I have walked the streets 'til the break of day

Won't you come to me, won't you look my way

Sing - Ah ya ya ya ya



Now the way you talk, put me in a trance

Got me all fired up, make me jump the fence

I have seen the future, I have seen the past

Gotta keep on movin', I was built to last



I will be your brother, father, mother too!

I will be the one, I'm gonna put a spell on you



Make you wanna push

Don't you wanna do it

Make you wanna push

Don't you wanna do it

Sing - Ah ya ya ya ya



Since I've been away, now you'll surely find

I'm gonna make you love me in a seconds time

I will pick you up, I will turn you around

Baby, here I come, I'm gonna shake the ground



I have been a sinner, so take me by the hand

I will be elected in a distant land

I will be your brother, father, mother too!

I will be the one, I'm gonna put a spell on you



Make you wanna push

Don't you wanna do it

Make you wanna push

Don't you wanna do it

Sing - Ah ya ya ya ya



I have been a sinner, so take me by the hand

I will be elected in a distant land

I will be your brother, father, mother too!

I will be the one, I'm gonna put a spell on you



Make you wanna push

Don't you wanna do it

Make you wanna push

Don't you wanna do it

Sing - Ah ya ya ya ya

BONNIE TYLER lyrics - Forget Her

(Paul Millns)



My friend you're worn out and aching now

Your life stretched tight and breaking now

And you seem to find that every morning's

Like a mountain you must climb



Forget her, shake her free

Like a leaf from a tree, you must let her go

It's hard I know

But tomorrow is another road that leads

Away from here, to the first horizon

Forget her



My friend you could open windows now

Let cool breezes through your life somehow

Cos there's people out there, other people

Crying dying trying to get somewhere



Forget her, let her go

With the ebb and flow of the passing tide

Now she's fortune's bride

And the days line up like cards and you can deal

Yourself a chance while the wheel's still turning

Forget her



Well I'm so good at giving advice

But I know when you look at my life

It seems crazy

But I can stand aside

And I can see with different eyes

Sometimes more clearly



Forget her, till she sees



Like a face in a dream so far away

She will fade away

And tomorrow is another road that leads

Away from here, to the first horizon

Forget her - she has forgotten you

Forget her

TELEVISION lyrics - Carried Away

(Verlaine)



Last night I drifted down to the docks

The water... glittering and black.

The snow fell lightly and disappeared.

I felt the old ropes grow slack.

I thought I'd dissolve when the beacon revolved.

I just get so carried away.

Once I had a ship, yes I had a map

I had the wind like a tree has sap

I sank into these banks of clay

I get carried

Those rooms were freezing and always dark but where we were never mattered

Your head was golden

There was lightning in your arms and then the glass shattered.

It was noon at midnite.

The day that never ends -

The lamp it whispers and makes amends - everything was more than I took it for.

I got carried away.

STEELY DAN lyrics - Everyone's Gone To The Movies

Kids if you want some fun

Mr. LaPage is your man

He's always laughing, having fun

Showing his films in the den

Come on, come on

Soon you will be eighteen

I think you know what I mean

Don't tell your mama

Your daddy or mama

They'll never know where you been



[Chorus:]

Everyone's gone to the movies

Now we're alone at last



Listen to what I say

He wants to show you the way

Right down the hallway with open arms

To teach you a new game to play

Come on, come on

Soon it will be too late

Bobbing for apples can wait

We know you're used to sixteen or more

Sorry we only have eight



[Chorus]



Kids if you want some fun

See what you never have seen

Take off your cheaters and sit right down

Start the projection machine



[Chorus]

BARBRA STREISAND lyrics - Run Wild

I wandered into your wonderland

With eyes open wide

You turned me into your yesterday

But you will remain inside of me

Like I care for you

Oh...I care for you

Run wild

Out on the edge of time

Child

Carry your dreams away

Love

No one can hold you now

For you are an island

I may be broken but understand

My love will get by

There will be others along the way

My love

They will try to care for me

Like I care for you

Oh...I care for you

Run wild

Out on the edge of time

Child

Carry your dreams away

Love

No one can hold you now

For you are an island

Run wild

Out on the edge of time

Child

Carry your dreams away

No one can hold you now

For you are an island

(Run wild

Out on the edge of time)

Child

Carry your dreams away

Love

No one can hold you now

For you are an island...

HUEY LEWIS AND THE NEWS lyrics - Shake, Rattle And Roll

(Big Joe Turner)



[Originally by Bill Haley and His Comets]



Get outta that bed and wash those face and hands

Get outta that bed, wash those face and hands

Get in that kitchen, make some noise with the pots and pans



When you wear those dresses, the sun comes shining through

When you wear those dresses, the sun comes shining through

I can't believe my eyes all that mess belongs to you



I believe in my soul you're a devil in nylon hose

I believe in my soul you're a devil in nylon hose

Well, the harder I work, the faster my money goes



I said, shake, rattle and roll, I said shake, rattle and roll

I said shake, rattle and roll, shake, rattle and roll

Well, you won't do nothin' to save your doggone soul



I'm like a one-eyed cat peepin' in a seafood store

I'm like a one-eyed cat peepin' in a seafood store

Well, I can look at you and tell you ain't no child no more



Way over the hill, way down underneath

Way over the hill, way down underneath

You make me roll my eyes, Baby, make me grit my teeth



I said shake, rattle and roll, I said shake, rattle and roll

I said shake, rattle and roll, I said shake, rattle and roll

Well, you won't do nothing to save your doggone...



Shake, rattle and roll

Look out 'cause I'm gonna get you.



And I'm gonna make...

I'm gonna make you love me.

Ooo, I'm gonna make you love me.

Yes I will.

Yes I will.

And when you seen the fire you got jealous, you jeal'

So sucker just retire, you admire my skill

I'm never the type of guy to close the door in your face

I got you wide open, Run is runnin a race

Takin what's mine and what's left is a waste

Leavin them behind and all suckers on the chase

Got a dope track, comin real dope an'

LOS LOBOS lyrics - Chicanita De Aztlan

(Ramon "Tiguere" Rodriguez)



Yo soy pura chicanita

Soy de esta linda nacion

Me llamo la Ramoncita

Ya tengo mi educacion



Aduve en el movimiento

Con mi querido papa

Y en mi triste pensamiento

Mi padre siempre estara



Con mi padre tui a las juntas

Con mi padre yo aprendi

Hacer bastantes preguntas

Para saber yo de mi



Yo soy de raza morena

Soy de esta tierra de Aztlan

Y en esta tierra tan buena

Mis ninos feliz seran



Que viva Dolores Huerta

Chicana de mi pais

Por ella vivo yo alerta

Por ella vivo feliz



En esas huelgas anduve

Tambien demostre poder

Y al Senor Chavez yo tuve

El honor de conocer



Yo soy pura chicanita

Soy de esta linda nacion

Me llamo la Ramoncita

Viva la revolucion!

DIANA ROSS lyrics - Lovely Day

(Bill Withers/Skip Scarborough)



When I wake up in the morning love

And the sun light hurts my eyes



And something without worning love

Bears heavy on my mind.

Then I look at you and the world's alright with me



Just one look at you and I know it's gonna be



[Chorus:]

A lovely day -

Lovely day [8x]

A Lovely day

Lovely day [7x]



When the day that lies ahead of me seems impossible to face

And someone else instead of me always seems to know the way

Then I look at you and the world's alright with me

Just one look at you and I know it's gonna be -



[Chorus]



When the day that lies ahead of me seems impossible to face

And someone else instead of me always seems to know the way

Then I look at you and the world's alright with me

Just one look at you and I know it's gonna be -



[Chorus]

CHICAGO lyrics - (I've Been) Searchin' So Long

(James Pankow)



As my life goes on I believe

Somehow something's changed

Something deep inside

Ooh a part of me

There's a strange new light in my eyes

Things I've never known

Changin' my life

Changin' me

I've been searchin'

So long

To find an answer

Now I know my life has meaning

Ow oh

Now I see myself as I am

Feeling very free

Life is everything

Ooh it's meant to be

When my tears have come to an end

I will understand

What I left behind

Part of me

I've been searching

So long

To find and answer

Now I know my life has meaning

Woah woah

Searching

Don't you know I'm hell yeah

For an answer

To the question

Oh yeah

For our minds

Baby

Baby it's true

It's only natural

It's only natural baby, yeah

Good things

In life

Take a long time

yeah yeah

MARY CHAPIN CARPENTER lyrics - Passionate Kisses

(Lucinda Williams)



Is it too much to ask

I want a comfortable bed that won't hurt my back

Food to fill me up

And warm clothes and all that stuff

Shouldn't I have this

Shouldn't I have this

Shouldn't I have all of this, and



Passionate kisses

Passionate kisses, whoa oh oh

Passionate kisses from you



Is it too much to demand

I want a full house and a rock and roll band

Pens that won't run out of ink

And cool quiet and time to think

Shouldn't I have this

Shouldn't I have this

Shouldn't I have all of this, and



Passionate kisses

Passionate kisses, whoa oh oh

Passionate kisses from you



Do I want too much

Am I going overboard to want that touch

I shout it out to the night

"Give me what I deserve, 'cause it's my right"

Shouldn't I have this (shouldn't I)

Shouldn't I have this (shouldn't I)

Shouldn't I have all of this, and



Passionate kisses

Passionate kisses, whoa oh oh

Passionate kisses from you

Passionate kisses

Passionate kisses, whoa oh oh

Passionate kisses from you

PINK FLOYD lyrics - The Post War Dream

tell me true tell me why was Jesus crucified

is it for this that daddy died?

was it for you? was it me?

did i watch too much t. v.?

is that a hint of accusation in your eyes?

if it wasn't for the nips

being so good at building ships

the yards would still be open on the clyde

and it can't be much fun for them

beneath the rising sun

with all their kids committing suicide

what have we done maggie what have we done

what have we done to england

should we shout should we scream

"what happened to the post war dream?"

oh maggie maggie what have we done?

FRANK SINATRA lyrics - Tell Her (You Love Her Each Day)

(C. Ward, C. Watkins)



[Recorded April 14, 1965, Hollywood]



(Tell her you love her) each day

You'll make her happy that way

A simple "I love you" means more than money

And, with a kiss or two her life is sunny



Give her a reason to live

She needs the love that you give

Always remember that is what she lives for

She hopes you love her

Tell her you love her

Tell her you love her today



(Give her a reason to live)

(She needs the love that you give)

Always remember that is what she lives for

She hopes you love her

Tell her you love her

Tell her you love her today

JOHN LEE HOOKER lyrics - That's Alright

(John Lee Hooker)



Hmm, hmm

Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, that;s alright, babe

That's alright, that's alright, babe

I know you done me wrong, baby,

But that's alright



As the years go passing by,

I keep on loving you, baby

Now come home, come home, come home,

Come on back home to me, baby

That's alright, baby, that's alright, that's alright

Look now people, when you love a woman,

You know she's doing you wrong

But love is blind, love is blind, love is blind

Used, used, used,

You know you been, you know you been used

But that's alright, that's alright, baby



Hmm

That's alright, baby, that's alright

You did me wrong babe, did me wrong,

But I'll keep on lovin' you

Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on

Babe, babe, babe, baby

As the years, go, passin' by,

I love you, I love you more and more



Hmm



But that's alright, that's alright, that's alright, that's alright



Thank you

GLEN CAMPBELL lyrics - Country Boy (You Got Your Feet In L. A.)

Livin' in the city

Ain't never been my idea of gettin' it on

But the job demands that you make new plans

Before your big chance is gone



You get a house in the hills

You're payin' everyone's bills

And they tell you that you're gonna go far

But in the back of my mind

I hear it time after time

"Is that who you really are"



Country boy, you got your feet in LA

But your mind's on Tennessee

Lookin' back, I can remember the time

When I sang my songs for free

Country boy, you got your feet in LA

Take a look at everything you own

But now and then, my heart keeps goin' home



Talkin' on the telephone

Settin' up another day of people to meet

You've gotta do what's right

You've gotta spend the night

Stayin' in touch with the street

When you're surrounded by friends

They say the fun never ends

But I guess I'll never figure it out

'Cause in the back of my mind

I hear it time after time

"Is this what it's all about"



Country boy, you got your feet in LA

But your mind's on Tennessee

Lookin' back, I can remember the time

When I sang my songs for free

Country boy, you got your feet in LA

Take a look at everything you own

But now and then, my heart keeps goin' home [2x]

BOB DYLAN lyrics - Po' Boy

Man came to the door, I say 'for whom were you lookin'?'

Says 'your wife', I say 'she's busy in the kitchen cookin''

Po' boy, where you been?

Already told you, won't tell you again



I say 'how much you want for that, I'll go into the store'

Man says 'three dollars' 'all right', I say, 'will you take four?'

Po' boy, never say die

Things will be all right, by and by



Workin' like in a main line, workin' like the devil

The game is the same it's just up on another level

Po' boy, dressed in black

Police at your back



Po' boy in a red hot town

Out beyond the twinklin' stars

Ridin' first class train

Makin' the rounds

Try to keep from fallin' between the cars



Othello told Desdemona "I'm cold, cover me with a blanket"

"By the way, what happened to that poisoned wine?"

She said "I gave it to you, you drank it"

Po' boy, layin' 'em straight

Pickin' up the cherries fallin' off the plate



Time and love has branded me with its claws

Had to go to Florida, dodgin' them Georgia laws

Po' boy in the hotel called the Palace of Bloom

Called down to room service, said 'send up a room



My mother was the daughter of a wealthy farmer

My father was a traveling salesman, I never met him

When my mother died my uncle took me in to run a funeral parlor

He did a lot of nice things for me and I won't forget him



All I know is that I'm thrilled by your kiss

I don't know any more than this

Po' boy, pickin' up sticks

Build you a house out of mortar and bricks



Knockin' on the door, I say 'who is it, where you from?'

Man say 'Freddie', I say 'Freddie who?'

He say 'Freddie or not, here I come'

Po' boy 'neath the stars that shine

Washin' them dishes, feedin' them swine

DAVID BOWIE lyrics - Fantastic Voyage

In the event

that this fantastic voyage

Should turn to erosion

and we never get old

Remember it's true, dignity is valuable

But our lives are valuable too



We're learning to live with somebody's depression

And I don't want to live with somebody's depression

We'll get by, I suppose

It's a very modern world,

but nobody's perfect



It's a moving world,

but that's no reason

To shoot some of those missiles

Think of us as fatherless scum

It won't be forgotten

'Cause we'll never say anything nice again, will we?



And the wrong words make you listen

In this criminal world

Remember it's true, loyalty is valuable

But our lives are valuable too



We're learning to live with somebody's depression

And I don't want to live with somebody's depression

We'll get by I suppose

But any sudden movement I've got to write it down

They wipe out an entire race and I've got to write it down

But I'm still getting educated but I've got to write it down

And it won't be forgotten

'Cause I'll never say anything nice again, how can I?

THE CURE lyrics - Closedown

I'm running out of time

I'm out of step and

Closing down and

Never sleep for wanting hours

The empty hours of greed

And uselessly

Always the need

To feel again the real belief

Of something more than mockery

If only I could

Fill my heart with love

WEIRD AL YANKOVIC lyrics - Another One Rides The Bus

Ridin' in a bus down the boulevard

And the place was pretty packed

Couldn't find a seat so I had to stand

With the perverts in the back

It was smellin' like a locker room

There was junk all over the floor

We're already packed in like sardines

But we're stoppin' to pick up more

Look out



Another one rides the bus

Another one rides the bus

And another comes on

And another comes on

Another one rides the bus

Hey

He's gonna sit by you

Another one rides the bus



There's a suitcase pokin' me in the ribs

There's an elbow in my ear

There's a smelly old bum standin' next to me

Hasn't showered in a year

Well, I think I'm missin' a contact lens

I think my wallet's gone

And I think this bus is stoppin' again

To let a couple more freaks get on

Look out



Another one rides the bus

Another one rides the bus

And another comes on

And another comes on

Another one rides the bus

Hey

He's gonna sit by you

Another one rides the bus



Yeah



Another one rides the bus

Another one rides the bus, ow

Another one rides the bus, hey, hey

Another one rides the bus, hey



The window doesn't open, and the fan is broke

And my face is turnin' blue

I haven't been in a crowd like this

Since I went to see The Who

Well, I should've got off a couple miles ago

But I couldn't get to the door

There isn't any room for me to breathe

Now we're gonna pick up more, yeah



Another one rides the bus

Another one rides the bus

And another comes on

And another comes on

Another one rides the bus

Hey

He's gonna sit by you

Another one rides the bus



No

No

Huh?

Yeah

Yeah

JACK JONES lyrics - Wives And Lovers

(Burt Bacharach & Hal David)



Hey! Little Girl

Comb your hair, fix your makeup

Soon he will open the door

Don't think because there's a ring on your finger

You needn't try anymore



For wives should always be lovers too

Run to his arms the moment he comes home to you

I'm warning you...



Day after day

There are girls at the office

And men will always be men

Don't send him off with your hair still in curlers

You may not see him again



For wives should always be lovers too

Run to his arms the moment he comes home to you

He's almost here...



Hey! Little girl

Better wear something pretty

Something you'd wear to go to the city and

Dim all the lights, pour the wine, start the music

Time to get ready for love

Time to get ready

Time to get ready for love

JOHN (COUGAR) MELLENCAMP lyrics - Ain't Even Done With The Night

Well our hearts beat like thunder

I don't know why they don't explode

You got your hands in my back pockets

And sam cooke's singin' on the radio

You say that I'm the boy

Who can make it all come true

Well, I'm tellin' ya that I don't know

If I know what to do



You say that's all right, hold tight

Well, I don't even know

If I'm doin' this right

Well, all right, hold tight

We can stay out all day

We can run around all night

Well, all night, all night

Well, it's time to go home

And I ain't even done with the night



Well I don't know

No good come-ons

And I don't know no cool lines

I feel the heat of your frustration

I know it's burnin' you up deep down inside

You say that I'm the boy

Who can make it all come true

Well I'm tellin' ya that I don't know

If I know what to do



You say that's all right, hold tight

Well, I don't even know

If I'm doin' this right

Well, all right, hold tight

We can stay out all day

We can run around all night

Well, all night, all night

Well, it's time to go home

And I ain't even done with the night



[Instrumental Interlude]



Ain't even done with the night

Hold tight

Well, I don't even know

If I'm doin' this right

Well, all right, hold tight

We can stay out all day

We can run around all night

Well, all night, all night

Well, it's time to go home

And I ain't even done with the night



No, I ain't even done with the night

No, no, ain't even done with the night

No, I ain't even done with the night

No, no, ain't even

Ain't even done with the night

No, no, ain't even done with the night

No, I ain't even done with the night

URIAH HEEP lyrics - Paradise

(Hensley)



I feel you trying

Though in my heart I know you're lying

And though your love for me is dying

I see you crying



It's the pain of your secret heart

Bringing you to tears

Filling you with fears

For your mind and for your soul



I touch you softly now

Borne on by hope until the end some how

I am a man and I must keep my vow

I must go on



But the wall of your secret heart

Keeps my distance clear

Helps my footsteps fall

Back in line inside my mind



What's the use you turned me loose

And left me here to cry

Where's the love we talked about

Where's my sunny sky



Secret hearts and sorry tales

Will never help love grow

Spread your wings my daunted soul

The time has come to go



I will not be hurried down

Or blackened by your lies

I must go and find my dream

And live in paradise



What's the use you turned me loose

And left me here to cry

Where's the love we talked about

Where's my sunny sky



Secret hearts and sorry tales

Will never help love grow

Spread your wings my daunted soul

The time has come to go



I will not be hurried down

Or blackened by your lies

I must go and find my dream

And live in paradise



What's the use you turned me loose

And left me here to cry

Where's the love we talked about

Where's my sunny sky

LOU REED lyrics - Starlight

Starlight open wide, starlight open up you door

This is New York calling with movies on the street

Movies with real people, what you get is what you see

Starlight open wide, Andy's Cecil B. DeMille



Come on L. A. give us a call

We've got superstars who talk, they'll do anything at all

Ingrid, Viva, Little Joe, Baby Jane, and Eddie S.

But you better call us soon before we talk ourselves to death



Starlight open wide everybody is a star

Split screen 8-hour movies, we've got color, we've got sound

Won't you recognize us, we're everything you hate

Andy loves old Hollywood movies, he'll scare you hypocrites to death



You know that shooting up's for real

That person who's screaming, that's the way he really feels

We're all improvising, five movies in a week

If Hollywood doesn't call us, we'll be sick



Starlight open wide, do to movies what you did to art

Can you see beauty in ugliness, or is it playing in the dirt

There are stars out on the New York streets, we want to capture them on film

But if no one wants to see them, we'll make another and another



Starlight let us in that magic room

We've all dreamt of Hollywood, it can't happen too soon

Won't you give us a million dollars the rent is due

And will give you 2 movies and a painting

Starlight open wide!

JONI MITCHELL lyrics - Midsummer Morning (Midsummer Night's Dream)

Midsummer rain, you and I together

I'm only dreaming again and I will forever it seems

Midsummer dawn, kisses in a doorway

I can't believe they are gone so I live our story in dreams



But baby I always wake up lonely

Mornings don't comfort me

Sometimes I think you're only

A midsummer's night's dream



I should have know, friends gave me warning

You had a dream of your own, now our midsummer mornings are through

Follow your star, it will lead you somewhere

Love is not really so far if in dream I can come there to you



But baby I always wake up lonely

Mornings don't comfort me

Sometimes I think you're only

A midsummer's night's dream

LENNY KRAVITZ lyrics - In My Life Today

When my memory starts to wander

I sit back and I ponder

How the whole world's gone asunder

I feel the rain and I hear the thunder



I was bare and I was lost

But you were there and now I'm born

You are the force and strength

In my life today



And oh how I thank you father

For giving us all over and under

You're a mystery, You're a wonder

I always knew since I was younger



I think about the way that you make it right

So full of love and sacrifice

I say yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah



But you were right and I was wrong, yeah

'Cause I was weak but you were strong,

Ohoh hey hey yeah

You are the force and strength

In my life today



And now that the darkness has faded

I'm no longer blinded I can see, yeah

And I don't have to wait no longer

'Cause it's all about being free

Every day every way

I'm gonna get myself together

Every day any way, ohoh



You are the force and strength

In my life today, yeah

You are the force and strength

In my life today, yeah



You are the force, yeah

And you are the reign,

You are the force and strength

In my life today, yeah



You are the force and strength

In my life today



You are the force

And You are the reign

You make me try to do right

And throw away my evil ways

Yeah, yeah yeaaah oh yeah,

Come on one more time,

Take me now, oh oh oh oh.

MADNESS lyrics - Be Good Boy

Sitting by the fire

It seems only yesterday

Look how you've grown

Now the time has come

For me to say:



You can do whatever you feel

I guess I'm right whenever you feel



Don't forget to brush your teeth

Or comb your hair

There's people out there to meet

Careful when you smile

When you walk into the room

A smile worthless unless you mean it to



You can take whatever you need

You can leave whenever need be



Be good boy don't fall mother knows best

Be good bot and choose mother knows best



Take a look at what you're going to do

Ooh think boy don't be led take the lead boy

I don't want to have to tell you again

Don't let me down my good humoured man



You can have whatever you want

Maybe I'm wrong whenever you want



Be good boy don't fret mother knows best

Be good bot don't cry mother knows best

Beholder of disguise so choose mother knows best

You better be on your best behaviour

Come visiting day

SONIC YOUTH lyrics - Karen Koltrane

Karen's moving out

Out into the sky

Karen trips on a cloud

Sets down w stars in her eyes

She's alone in a room

She's deep inside of her mind

Karen's leaving for the snow

Somewhere to somewhere... blind

She cut the silver lining in my soul

I was tethered to her for a time

Are we still together?

Will she stay forever?

(will she stay?... beside...

Flashlight... Karen stay... etc.)

A LOVE SUPREME

Karen, yr hanging on the line

Wraps yr coat tight around

Karen, yr eyes are on the prize

I'll catch you on my way down

JUDAS PRIEST lyrics - Rock You All Around The World

(Tipton/Halford/Downing)



In the cities of the world

You know every boy and girl

Goes crazy to the beat of rock n' roll

And as the volume is soaring

All the crowd is roaring

Let it roll



Well, we don't care in the least

Cause our metal is a feast

But there's always someone trying to put it down

So we crank the music louder

And our voices turn to power

With a wall of sound we'll blow 'em all away



Rock you all around the world

We're gonna rock

We're gonna roll

We're gonna shake you down

We're gonna lose control



No one can hold us down

Just look around and see

This generation's getting up and breakin' free



No one can hold us down

Just look around and see

This generation's getting up and breakin' free



Rock you all around the world

Rock you all around the world

We're gonna rock

We're gonna rock you

Rock you all around the world



Rock you all around the world

We're gonna rock

We're gonna rock you

Rock you all around the world

We're gonna rock rock rock you

Rock you all around the World

We're gonna rock

We're gonna rock you.

Rock you all around the world

We're gonna rock rock rock you

Rock you all around the world

We're gonna rock

We're gonna rock you.

Rock you all around the world

JOHN HIATT lyrics - The Negroes Were Dancing

Little lover sittin' in the corner with a former member of the jets

He would write a letter to the editor about the little holes in her dress

She said Oh, I'm so bored

He said Oh, tell me more



She popped him on the dick until he got a little bigger then she just blew up

She grabbed him by the liver put his hands on her hips, said push my luck

He said Oh, I'm so scared

She said Oh, I don't care



[Chorus:]

Just then the negros were dancing

Just then backup singers backed up

Just then the beat was entrancin'

Just then the negros were dancin'



A former member lit a cigarette said I bet you never get too much

Little lover hit him on the shoulder, said you caught him that's???? I touch

He said Oh, I confess

She said Oh, I'm not impressed



They gathered up all the fingerprints and put splints on all the broken bones

A former member lover to discover seven more overtones

He said Oh, my dear

She said Oh, touch me here



[Chorus 2x]

RAY CHARLES lyrics - Hardhearted Hannah

They call her Hardhearted Hannah,

The vamp of Savannah,

The meanest gal in town

Leather is tough,

But Hannah's heart is tougher

She's a gal who likes to see men suffer

To tease 'em and thrill 'em,

To torture and kill 'em

Is her delight they say.

I saw her at the seashore with a great big pan

There was Hannah pouring water on a drowning man

That's Hardhearted Hannah, the vamp of Savannah G-A



They call her Hardhearted Hannah,

The vamp of Savannah

The meanest gal in town

Talk about your cold refrigerating mammas

Brother she's a polar bears pajamas

To tease 'em and thrill 'em,

To torture and kill 'em

Is her delight they say.

An evening spent with Hannah sitting on your knees

Is like being in Alaska in your B. V.D.'s

That's Hard Hearted Hannah, the vamp of Savannah G-A

DAVID BYRNE lyrics - Ready For This World

When I hear, laying on the ground

A machine gun is sitting on my couch

I close my eyes

I shut my mouth

Well, I can't even hear a sound

I don't know if I'm ready for this world

I'm not ready for this world



I knew a girl, it did not last for long

She said she changed, she said I, I was not yet grown

Well, I went back

I had to see

But another boy had replaced me

I see I'm not ready for this world

I'm not ready for this world



Watched my grandmom get drunk one night

We watched TV, it was black and white

She said, boy, why don't you trust no one?

Your own behind never let you down



I bought a gun, but it's just for self-defense

Mmm, I seen this world, it don't make any sense

No more heartache, no more pain

Now, no one's hurting me again

I'm just getting ready for this world

I'm getting ready for this world



When I hear, laying on the ground

A machine gun is sitting on my couch

I close my eyes

I shut my mouth

Well, I can't even hear a sound

I don't know, I guess now I'm ready for this world

Yeah, I'm ready for this world

I'm heading up this world!

THE SUPREMES lyrics - Shake

(S. Cooke)



Shake, shake, shake



Listen while I talk to you

Tell you what we're gonna do

There's a new dance going around

And I tell you that we're putting you down

Just move your body all around



Shake, oh mama shake

Shake, I said that's the way to do it

Shake, come on you're looking good now



Shake it like a bowl of soup

Make your body loop de loop

Put your hands on your hip

You kinda let your back bone slip



Just move your body like a whip

And just shake, oh mama

Shake, I said that's the way to do it

Shake, come on now girls



Dingelingeling, honey shakin' is the latest thing

And if you wanna swing

Just loosen up your shoulders



And if you wanna really roll

You got to do the thing with soul

Shake it, shake it with all your might

And now if you do it, do it right



Just move your body loose tonight

And just shake, oh mama

Shake, come on honey

Shake, I said that's the way to do it



Loosen up your shoulders

And if you wanna really roll

You gotta do the thing with soul

Shake it, shake with all your might

And now if you do it, do it right



Just make your body loose tonight

And just shake, oh mama

Shake, I say that's the way to do it

Shake, come on now girls



Shake, come on now Florence

Shake, I say that's the way to do it

Shake, come on now Mary

Shake, come on now Supremes

And shake, I say that's the way to do it

Shake, come on now mama

Shake, I say that's the way to do it

Shake?
