Kareoke Bar!!
Post by evilcarlita on Oct 21, 2003, 6:39pm

Yargh!! I be Missy Evilla, the pirate/prostitute/elf, and I be your host here!!

Why a kareoke bar, you ask? What's better than singing and getting drunk?!!! This be the happiest place on earth, so get happy in any ways you can.

Me and my other wenches are off limits though. We have already been bought by fellow pirates, so hands off the goods!!

Now, as a clarification, and must tell you all that the stage has been claimed in the name of Djibouti, and the plants on either side are planted using soil shipped directly from Djibouti's capital, Djibouti.

Now, any volunteers to sing??

*strides in dressed completely in Renaissaince nobleman-eqque clothing, complete with the fancy rapier on his belt. Though the lobster perched on his shoulder screws with the image a bit.

"What is this filthy tavern you've brought us to, Blinky?" asks the Completely Insane and Overdressed Penman to his Lobster, Blinky, the living embodyment of Lobster-ness.

*Lobster moves about and doesn't appear to make any sound.

(*The Actual IP just liked the image of The Fictional IP and his Lobster Blinky too much to pass up the oppurtunity.)

"What do you mean you want to sing kareoke?! You don't make any sounds!!!"

Post by evilcarlita on Oct 21, 2003, 6:47pm

Argh, let the lobster sing his piece, improvident sir. Might I interest you in a bit of ale while he goes about his performance art or whatnot?

Arr! Let the bloody appetizer sing!



Re: Kareoke Bar!!
Post by insanepenman on Oct 21, 2003, 6:56pm

Fine, fine, Blinky, sing! But do not weep at me when your audience hears naught!

*turning to evil

Nay,...erm...good...lady! I had hoped to partake this eve, but amongst such scoundrels as these that frequent your...establishment, I should fear for my possessions.

(*The Real IP snickers at how pompous the fictional IP is. *snicker**snicker*)

Ah. He is not only lavish, but toplofty as well!! Pray tell, sir, where you are from? I would only expect such arrogance from the often hackneyed American character, yet you seem far too cultured to claim that base land as home!
Re: Kareoke Bar!!
Post by insanepenman on Oct 21, 2003, 7:11pm

I am from the most noble house of the Glaurhir*, monarchs of a far and distant land, and 'twas my great misfortune to happen across such a creature as my lobster companion, who has such a taste for cheap ale and so little navigational skill when it comes to the seas. Which explains our presence here about. Though I suspect that Blinky perhaps knew of your tavern from previous excursions or heresay. He is one to speak often with his fellow men of the sea, or at least those that do not attempt to eat him with butter, and 'twould not surprise me if he intentionally set us off our course...

*sigh

Perhaps I have said too much.

(*Heehee. Can anyone guess where I pulled "Glaurhir" ffrom? And, no, it wasn't just off the top of my head!)

(*Real IP heehees and rememebrs the narration from Exiles #4...

"Mimic and Logan share many similiarities beyond their mutant powers."

"The both share a love of foreign culture. They have surprisingly excellent singing voices that they keep quiet about. And they both love beer."

"It was during one of those longer sessions in a dive Karaoke bar that the latter two of those similiarities were in full effect.")

Re: Kareoke Bar!!
Post by ashley on Oct 21, 2003, 8:19pm

Just curiosity, but how does it go in the USA? Here in Japan, you go to a bar in groups of 4+ people, then you get a room and, well, sing. And drink of course. But in some countries, everyone is in the same room. I think. Not sure though...=)
Re: Kareoke Bar!!
Post by psyc on Oct 21, 2003, 8:20pm

yep itr's all one big room here

*IP smites IcemanDrake with the full force of his godly lobster power. Which, for the sake of not mortally wounding him, leaves him with what should be a "Dunce" cap stuck to his head, but instead reads "Lobsters: Plese Do Me Bodily Harm".

I'm back! I see that some people have been talking to me while I was not here. That's crazy.
But anyway, I have reformed. I no longer get drunk from a single glass of rum. I also try not to get drunk (i mean sometimes maybe, and only for a bit of fun. I guess tipsy is enough then). A Red Square for me. One will loosen me up enough for some Kareoke.

Our mother are are junkies

Goly moses, naturally we're punks!

With all their marijuana, they won't give me a puff!
They didn't want to have me, but somehow I was had!
Leapin' Lizards, that's why I'm so bad!

Why Officer Krumke, you really a square
This boy don't need a judge, he needs an anylist's care.
It's just his neurosis that outa be curbed

Hey, I'm depraved on account I'm deprived!

So take him to a headshinker!!

My daddy beats my mommy, my mommy clobbers me
My grampa is a Commie, my grandma pushes tea!
My sister wears a mustache, my brother wears a dress,
Goodness Gracious, that's why I'm a mess!

Yes! Officer Krumke, he shouldn't be here. This boy don't need a couch, he needs a useful career!
Society's played him a terrible trick
And sociologically he's sick!

In my opinion, this child don't ned to have his head shrunk at all.
Juvinile delinquency is purely a social disease!

Hey! I got a social disease!! *is hit by Officer Krumke*

So take him to a social worker!

Dear kindly social worker, they tell me get a job,
like be a soda-jerker, which means I'd be a slop,
it's not I'm anti-social, I'm only anti-work.
Gloryosky, that's why I'm a jerk!

Eeek!

Let's start a new song....

Whoooh ooooh who’s that guy?
Whoooh ooooh who’s that guy?

He came out of the darkness in the middle of the night,
Blazing like a mother with a fist of dynamite.

He ain’t foolin’ no one on that pile of chrome and steel,
Burnin’ up the pavement like he was some kind of wheel.

He’s lookin’ for a rumble and some heads are gonna bust,
He’s gonna take a tumble with one solitary thrust!

The only thing you guys are gonna do is eat his dust!


Yay!!!! I love this song!!!

Again

You understand me,

Ever will.

Now we're searching for a better day,
Something that makes me feel good,
About myself.

Someday we'll laugh about it all,
When everything turns out to be,
All right.



Who ever said that Dutch music sucks? Oh yeah, that was me.... :)

But Krezip is good. They really are.

You know how people have these little habits that get you down. Like Bernie, Bernie he like to chew gum No not chew, POP! Well, I came home this one and I'm really irritated and lookin' for little sympathy. And there's Bernie, layin' on the couch drinkin' a beer and chewin'. No not chewing, POPING! So I said to him, I said, "You POP that gum one more time ..." and he did.

THOSE ARE THE LINES I WAS MISSING!!!!!! THEY'RE FOUND!!! YEAH!! Let's start a new song. I don't wanna sing Chicago anymore. Hmmmmmm..... Anyone ever heard Stacey's Mom? I forget what the first verse is but I know it from the chorus.

Stacey's Mom has got it goin' on
She's all I ever wanted
and waited for so long
Stacey can't you see you're just not the girl for me
I know it might wrong but, I'm in love with Stacey's Mom

Stacey do you remember the time that I mowed your lawn
(Mowed your lawn)
Your mom came out with just a towel o-o-on
(towel on)
I could tell she liked me by the way she stared
(way she stared)
And by the way she "You missed a spot over the-e-ere
(spot over there)
No it's not just a fantasy, but since your Dad walked out your Mom could use a guy like me.

Stacey's Mom has got it goin' on
She's all I ever wanted
And waited for so long
Stacey can't you see you're just not the girl for me
I know it might wrong but I'm in love Stacey's Mom


And all it does is sing the chorus untill the end. I love that song. The guy that is thinking this is like a ten year old boy. I think it's hilariuos! If you wanna know who sings it well here they are, Fountains of Wayne. That's who sings it. I love this song. >:( :(

Educated, with money
He's well dressed
Not funny
And not much to say in most conversations
cause he'll put the bill in all situations
cause he pays for everything

Girls don't like boys
Girls like cars and money
Boys will laugh at girls when they're not funny

Paper or plastic,
Don't matter
She'll have it
Vacations and shopping sprees
These are a few of her favorite things
She'll get what she wants if
She's willing to please
His type of girl always comes with a fee
Hey now there's nothing for free

Girls don't like boys girls like cars and money
Boys will laugh at girls when they're not funny
And these girls like these boys
Like these boys like these girls
The girls with the body's
Like boys with Ferrari's
Girls don't like boys girls like cars and money

Let's Go!

Now here is my performance of the great Eagles song, Hotel California


On a dark desert highway
Cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas
Rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance
I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy, and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
This could be Heaven or this could be Hell
Then she lit up a candle
And she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor
I thought I heard them say

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely place (background)
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year
Any time of year (background)
You can find it here
You can find it here

Her mind is Tiffany twisted
She's got the Mercedes bends
She's got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
That she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard
Sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember
Some dance to forget
So I called up the Captain
Please bring me my wine
He said
We haven't had that spirit here since 1969
And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely Place
Such a lovely Place (background)
Such a lovely face
They're livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise
What a nice surprise (background)
Bring your alibies

Mirrors on the ceiling
Pink champagne on ice
And she said
We are all just prisoners here
Of our own device
And in the master's chambers
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives
But they just can't kill the beast
Last thing I remember
I was running for the door
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
Relax said the nightman
We are programed to recieve
You can check out any time you like
But you can never leave


How's my singing?

Ferret sidles up to the microphone and slowly begins to sing with eyes closed.

I died
So many years ago
And you can make me feel
Like it isn’t so
But why you come and be with me
I think I finally know
Mmm

You’re scared
Ashamed of what you feel
And you can’t tell the ones you love
You know they couldn’t deal
But whisper in a dead man’s ear
That doesn’t make it real

That’s great
But I don’t wanna play
‘Cause being with you touches me
More than I can say
And since I’m only dead to you
I’m saying stay away
And let me rest in peace

Let me rest in peace
Let me get some sleep
Let me take my love and bury it
In a hole six foot deep
I can lay my body down
But I can’t find my sweet release
So let me rest in peace

You know
You’ve got a willing slave
And you just love to play the thought
That you might misbehave
But til you do I’m telling you
Stop visiting my grave
And let me rest in peace

I know I should go
But I follow you like a man possessed
There’s a traitor here beneath my breast
And it hurts me more than you’ve ever guessed
If my heart could beat it would break my chest
But I can see you’re unimpressed
So leave me be and let me rest in peace

Let me get some rest
Let take my love and bury it
In a hole six foot deep
I can lay my body down
But I can’t find my sweet release
So let me rest in peace
Why won’t you
Let me rest in peace

We all want to change the world,

Don't you know it's gonna be,

You say you got a real solution,
Well you know,
We'd all love to see the plan,

You ask me for a contribution,
Well you know,
We're all doing what we can,

But if you want money for people with minds that hate,
All I can tell you is brother you have to wait,

Don't you know it's gonna be,

All-right,

You say you'd change the constitution,
Well you know,
We'd all love to change your head,

You tell me it's the institution,
Well you know,
You better free your mind instead,

But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao,
You ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow.

Don't you know it's gonna be,

So you think you'vegot it all worked out
You got your hotpants on
You got your arse right out
You think that you are something new and special
And me and my drab dress, we won't do at all

I spent so long trying to fit the prototype
I kept slippin' in the heels and never got it right
Oh! What's the use?
What's the point?
You've got the wrong girl!


There is more but the first two verses are the best and I can't be bothered typing the rest, at least not now. Maybe it's got something to do with the fact that my Social (Prom for all you naive to the word) in a couple months and I gotta get a
dress.

"What would you do if I sang out of tune,
Would you stand up and walk out on me,
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song,
and I'll try not to sing out of key,

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends,
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends,
Mm, Gonna try with a little help from my friends,
"

(*IP and the lobsters begin to alternate lines...)

"What do I do when my love is away,
Does it worry you to be alone,
How do you feel by the end of the day,
Are you sad because you're on your own,
"

(*IP sings solo again...)

" I get by with a little help from my friends,
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends,
Mm,Gonna try with a little help from my friends,
"

(*Alternating again...)

"you need anybody,
I need somebody to love,
Could it be anybody,
I want somebody to love,

Would you believe in a love at first sight,
Yes, I'm certain that it happens all the time,
What do you see when you turn out the light,
I can't tell you, but I know it's mine,
"

(*IP alone once more)

"Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends,
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends,
Oh, Gonna try with a little help from my friends,

(*Alternating...)

"Do you need anybody,
I just need someone to love,
Could it be anybody,

I lived my life in shadow
Never the sun on my face
It didn't seem so sad, though
I figured that was my place

Now I'm bathed in light
Something just isn't right

Am I under your spell
How else can it be
Anyone would notice me
It's magic I can tell
How you set me free
Brought me out so easily

I saw a world enchanted
Spirits and charms in the air
I always took for granted
I was the only one there

But your power shone
Brighter than any I've known

Am I under your spell
Nothing I can do
You just took my soul with you
You worked your charm so well
Finally I knew
Everything I dreamed was true
You make me believe

The moon to the tide
I can feel you inside
Am I under your spell
Surging like the sea
Pulled to you so helplessly

I break with every swell
Lost in ecstacy
Spread beneath my Willow tree

You make me complete
You make me complete
You make me complete

Anyway the wind blows, doesn't really matter to me...

Mama, just killed a man
Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger, now he's dead
Mama, life had just begun
But now I've gone and thrown it all away
Mama, ooo
Didn't mean to make you cry
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters

Too late, my time has come
Sends shivers down my spine
Body's aching all the time
Goodbye everybody - I've got to go
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Mama, ooo - (anyway the wind blows)
I don't want to die
I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all

(boom, boom, boom)

I see a little silhouetto of a man
Scaramouch, scaramouch will you do the fandango
Thunderbolt and lightning - very very frightening me
Gallileo, Gallileo,
Gallileo, Gallileo,
Gallileo Figaro - magnifico

But I'm just a poor boy and nobody loves me
He's just a poor boy from a poor family
Spare him his life from this monstrosity

Easy come easy go - will you let me go
Bismillah! No - we will not let you go - let him go
Bismillah! We will not let you go - let him go
Bismillah! We will not let you go - let me go
Will not let you go - let me go (never)
Never let you go - let me go
Never let me go - ooo
No, no, no, no, no, no, no -
Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia let me go
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me
For me
For me


*great guitar solo that i cannot imitate in writing*

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye
So you think you can love me and leave me to die

Just gotta get out - just gotta get right outta here

Ooh yeah, ooh yeah

In the darkness
I was stumbling for the door

The misty ghost of childhood fears
The preessure is building

For you and for me

Where I was
I had wings that couldn't fly
Where I was
I had tears I couldn't cry
My emotions
Frozen in an icy lake
I couldn't feel them
Until the ice began to break
I have no power over this
You know I'm afraid
The walls I built are crumblig
The water is moving
I'm slipping away

I throw myself into the sea
Releas the wawe
Let it wash over me
To face the fear
I once believed
The taers of the dragon
For you and for me

Slowly I awake
Slowly I rise

The walls I built are crumblig
The water is moving

Releas the wave
Let it wash over me
To face the fear

Most of you should and probably do know the song
Now my voice is a little, untrained, and with that slight Scottish twang as I sing, but you're just gonna have to put up with it I'm afraid, nothing I can really do about it.


How can you see into my eyes like open doors
Leading you down into my core
Where I’ve become so numb without a soul
My spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home


Wake me up inside
Wake me up inside
Call my name and save me from the dark
Bid my blood to run before I come undone
Save me from the nothing I’ve become


Now that I know what I’m without
You can’t just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life


Wake me up inside
Wake me up inside
Call my name and save me from the dark
Bid my blood to run before I come undone
Save me from the nothing I’ve become
Bring me to life


Frozen inside without your touch without your love
Darling only you are the life among the dead

All this time I can’t believe I couldn’t see
Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I’ve been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought without a voice without a soul
Don’t let me die here there must be something more
Bring me back to life

LD you sang the wrong lyrics, it's

It's cold outside
There's no kind of atmosphere
I'm all alone more or less
Let me fly far away from here
Fun, fun, fun,
In the sun, sun, sun,

I want to lie
Ship wrecked in Comatose
Drinking fresh Mango Juice
Gold fish shouls
Nibbling at my toes
Fun, fun, fun,
In the sun, sun, sun,
Fun, fun, fun,
In the sun, sun, sun.


I love that song.

If you're in trouble, he will save the day
He's brave and he's fearless, come what may
Without him, the mission would go astray
He's Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer
Without him, life would be much grimmer
He's handsome, trim, and no one's slimmer
He will never need a Zimmer
He's Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer
More reliable than a garden Strimmer
He's never been mistaken for Yul Brynner
He's not bald and his head doesn't glimmer
Master of the wit and the repartee
His command of space directives is uncanny
How come he's such a genius?
Don't ask me Ask Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer
He's also a fantastic swimmer
And if you play your cards right, then he just might come round for dinner

He's Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer
No rhymes left now apart from quimmer
We hope they fade us out before we get to schwimmer
Fade out you stupid plimmer

Honey we know the names
We are the people that can find
Whatever you may need
If you got the money honey
We got your disease

In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your knees, knees
I wanna watch you bleed

Welcome to the jungle
We take it day by day
If you want it you're gonna bleed
But it's the price you pay
And you're a very sexy girl
That's very hard to please
You vcan take the bright lights
But you won't get them for free
In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Feel my, my, my serpentine
I, I wanna hear yous.cream

Welcome to the jugnle
It gets worse here evryday
Ya learn to live like an animal
In the jungle where we play
If you got a hunger for what you see
You'll take it eventually
You can have anything you want
But you better not take it from me

In the jungle
Welcome to the jugnle
Watch it bring you to your knees, knees
I wanna watch you bleed

And when you're high you never
Ever want to come down
So down
So down
So down

You know where you are
You're in the jungle baby
You're gonna die

In the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your knees, knees
In the jugnle
Welcome to the jungle
Feel my, my, my serpentine

Welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your knees, knees

~In the bar smoke billows out across the stage, sheets of it passing across a thin beam of pale yellow light that spills down from the ceiling (all to create atmosphere here). A young girl appears on stage, no older than sixteen or seventeen, and shy but determined, takes up the mike on centre stage. A strange hush falls over as the intro to the music begins to play.~

There is no rose without a thorn
No rain without the storm
There is no laughter without tears
No wisdom without years

In a world gone crazy
Torn between the roads that we must choose
Win or lose
If every soul should lose its way
If every face should lose its name

Tell me who's gonna stop the rain?

Each day another boy and girl
Sets foot into this world
One reaches out to touch the sky
One never learns to fly

Where is it written in the stone
That any child should walk alone
Out on their own
If no one tries to end this game
Or find a way to ease the pain

Tell me who's gonna stop the rain?

How many rivers must we cross before we learn
That the flood is rising high
And the bridges all have burned
Each time another dream is washed into the sea
It's another piece of you
It's another piece of me

Sure as the blood runs through your veins
Sure as the falling rain
We'll taste the tears of each defeat
The bitter and the sweet

As the days grow colder
Wonder if we'll ever see the sun
When winter comes
If no one stands to take the weight
If no one answers to the blame

Tell me who's gonna stop the rain?


~Slowly the acoustic guitar fades out and with a small shy nod the girl leaves.~

You're welcome Mr. Drake. I'm bored so I'm gonna sing.

These are words that go together well
My Michelle

Michelle, ma belle,
Sont les mots qui vont tres bien ensemble,
Tres bien ensemble

I love you, I love you, I love you,
That's all I want to say
Until I find a way
I will say the only words I know that
You'll understand

I need you, I need you, I need you
I need to make you see
Oh, what you mean to me
Until I do i'm hoping you will know
What I mean

I love you

I want you, I want you, I want you
I think you'll know by now
I'll get to you somehow
Until I do I'm telling you so
You'll understand

I will say the only words I know that
You'll understand, my Michelle.



I love that song. The Beatles rock! PoT tell me what this French means. I read it somewhere but I forget. That reminds me, this has nothing to do with The Beatles or PoT but,

In retribution, I too shall perform a Beatles song! Ner!

"Lovely Rita-meter maid,
Lovely Rita-meter maid,

Lovely Rita meter maid,
nothing can come between us,
When it gets dark I tow your heart away,

Standing by a parking meter,
when I caught a glimpse of Rita,
Filling in a ticket in her little white book,
In a cap she looked much older,
And the bag across her shoulder,
Made her look a little like a military man,

Lovely Rita meter maid,
may I inquire discreetly,
When are you free to take some tea with me,

Rita!

Took her out and tried to win her,
had a laugh and over dinner,
Told her I would really like to see her again,
Got the bill and Rita paid it,
Took her home and nearly made it,
Sitting on a sofa with a sister or two,

Oh! Lovely Rita meter maid,
where would I be without you,
give us a wink and make me think of you,

Lovely meter maid,
Rita meter maid,
oh, Lovely Rita meter, meter maid.

Re: Kareoke Bar!!

This is in no way a gospel song, and you needn't be religious to appreciate it. (Trust me) It's somehow my favorite song.

I heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music do you...
It goes like this: The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king, Hallelujah

Hallelujah......Hallelujah........Hallelujah........Halleluuuujah

Your faith was strong, but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty, in the moonlight, overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah...

Hallelujah..........Hallelujah.........Hallelujah...........Halleluuuujah

Maybe I've been here before,
I know this room, I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you
I've seen your flag on the marbelage
love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah..........Hallelujah............Hallelujah............Halleluuuujah

There was a time when you'd let me know
what's real and going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
And remember when I moved in you
the holy dark was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah............Hallelujah.............Hallelujah..........Halleluuuujah

Maybe there's a better God
And all I ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
It's not a cry you can hear at night
it's not somebody who's seen tha light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah ..........Hallelujah .........Hallelujah ...........Halleluuuujah
Hallelujah ..........Hallelujah ........Hallelujah ..........Halleluuuujah


"Marbelage" That's what it sounds like, and I always find myself trying to figure out what he's saying..

Hallelujah by Rufus Wainwright.

SHAME ON YOU!!!

I have a song,


Who's that waddling down the street,
It's just me
Cause I love to eat
Fudge and Twinkies and Deviled Ham
Who's real flabby
Yes I am

Every picture of me's
Gotta be an airel view
Now my doctor tells me
There's just one thing left to do

Grapefruit Diet (diet!)
Throw out the pizza and beer
Grapefruit Diet (diet!)
Oh, get those jelly doughnuts outta here
Grapefruit Diet (diet!)
Might seem a little severe
Grapefruit Diet (diet!)
I'm gettin tired of my big fat rear
Blow Fatty!

Well I used to live on chocolate sauce
Made sumo wrestlers look like Kate Moss
Walked down an alley
And I got stuck
I got more rolls than a pastry truck

When I'm all done eating
I eat a little more
When I leave a room
First I gotta grease the door

Grapefruit Diet (diet!)
Can't have another eclair
Grapefruit Diet (diet!)
I gotta decrease my dareiair

I'm on a Grapefruit Diet
I'm on a Grapefruit Diet
I'm on a Grapefruit Diet

No more pie now
No more Cremebrule
Lay off the gravy!
And suffle
No French Fri-i-i-i-i-i-ies now
No ice cream Parffet
Mr. Cheese Nacho
Stay away

Oh, I think I'd sell my soul for
A Triple Patty Melt
But I need a bomerang
When I put on my belt

Grapefruit Diet (diet!)
Law off the 3 Musketters
Grapefruit Diet (diet!)
Until my big booty disappears
Grapefruit Diet (diet!)
I'll eat 'em 'til they're comin' outta my ears
Grapefruit Diet (diet!)
Cause I haven't seen my feet in years

I'm on a Grapefruit Diet
I'm on a Grapefruit Diet
I'm on a Grapefruit Diet

I think I'm about ready for a
Quarter pounder with chesse
Oh. and don't forget the onion rings
And supersize that

Oh, PoT. I'm sorry for accusing you of stealing my wallet. To show that there's no hard feelings, and that I trust you, I left my wallet in your car since it was such a long walk to mine.

Post by telaka on Nov 14, 2003, 2:05pm

You know I always thought this song sounded better just read that sung, I'm not sure why. Anyway, it's a favourite of mines, especially the last little verse, so I thought I'd share.


So- What am I not s’pposed to have an opinion
Should I keep quiet just because I’m a woman
Call me a bitch ‘cause I speak what’s on my mind
Guess it’s easier for you to swallow if I sat and smiled

When a female fires back suddenly big talkers don’t know how to act
So he does what every little boy would do
Makin’ up a few false rumours or two
That for sure is not a man to me, slanderin’ names for popularity
It’s sad you only get your name through controversy
But now it’s time for me to come and give you more to say

This is for my girls all around the world
Who have come across a man who don’t respect your worth
Thinkin’ all women should be seen and not heard
So what do we do girls, shout out loud
Lettin’ ‘em know we’re gonna stand our ground
So lift your hands higher and wave ‘em proud
Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, never will
Can’t hold us down

So- What am I not suppose to say what I’m saying
Are you offended with the message I’m bringin’
Call me whatever ‘cause your words don’t mean a thing
Guess you aint even a man enough to handle what I sing
If you look back in history it’s a double common standard of society
The guy gets all the glory the more he can score
While the girl can do the same and yet you call her a whore
I don’t understand why it’s OK
The guy can get away with it the girl gets named
All my ladies come together and make a change
And start a new beginning for us, everybody sang


This is for my girls all around the world
Who have come across a man who don’t respect your worth
Thinkin’ all women should be seen and not heard
So what do we do girls, shout out loud
Lettin’ ‘em know we’re gonna stand our ground
So lift your hands higher and wave ‘em proud
Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, never will
Can’t hold us down

You’re just a little boy
Think you’re so cute, so coy
You must talk big to make up for smaller things
You’re just a little boy
All you do is annoy
You must talk big to make up for smaller things

<His eyes flash and betray an inner focus and clearity most are never allowed to see in him - and he smiles with a disturbing slowness>


I don't know what color your eyes are, baby,
But your hair is long and brown.
Your legs are strong, and they're so, so long.
And you don't come from this town.

My head is full of magic, baby,
And I can't share this with you.
The feel I'm on a cross again, lately,
But there's nothing to do with you.

I'm alive, I'm so alive.
I'm alive, I'm so alive.

This drug makes me crazy,
makes me see you more clearly.
Oh, baby, now I can see you.
Wish I could stop,
Switch off the clock,
Make it all happen for you.

I'm alive, so alive.
I'm alive, I'm so alive.

I don't know what color your eyes are, baby,
But your hair is long and brown.
Your legs are strong, and they're so, so long.
And you don't come from this town.

My head is full of magic, baby,
And I can't share this with you.
The feel I'm on top again, lately,
That's got everything to do with you.

I'm alive, I'm so alive.

Okay - so I cant sleep. It's not going to happen and I've given up on trying - despite the fact that this will be day two ... <thinks hard> and a half ... of being awake. But you cant squeeze blood from a rock now can you? Nor would you try.

So, as I have made mention - I am currently learning to play the drums - however - most everything I can play so far sounds like Brian Setzer Orchestra (The Stray Cats, etc) or something strait up big band/swing. I personally think it's a curse of sorts - that I cant play anything I generally listen to. <shrug> Oh well. Such is life.

And so I was banging away yesterday, just trying to keep my timing and still travel through a roll without losing it - and pick it up again at the end.

And I change the beat up a little to see how it sounds different ways - and I caught a groove.

So, I'm home.

I'm jamming.

No ones around or anywhere that's likely to be found - so I'm enjoying myself, doing whatever...

And then it happend.

Lyrics.

Words just started forcing themselves out of my mouth.

I blame Kurt. I had been thinking about a fic I wrote with Kurt going a little nutty in the light house. And that's where this came from - Although why I'm posting it escapes me completely at the moment.

<smile/shrug>

Hey Kitty, Kitty!
Where did you go?
I've searched this light house
high and low.

Hey Kitty, Kitty!
Where can you be?
I'm looking for love!
Are you lookin' to please?

Hey Kitty, Kitty!
Sent from above,
you should come out,
and we'll play 'love'.

Oh Kitty,Kitty!
What do I see?
You're lickin' your lips,
and lookin' at me!

Oh Kitty, Kitty!
Let's hear you roar.
We could throw down,
right here on the floor.

Oh Kitty, Kitty!
Like what you see?
I'm ready for you,
are you ready for me?

<begins to fade out>

Hey Kitty, Kitty -

What can I say?

You make me scratch all night - And yowel all day!

Oh Kitty, Kitty,

What's this I find?

You know just how - To make me lose my mind ...

Well I recently saw the video for Nickelback's song, Someday, and now every time I hear that song I will feel like beginning to cry, so I decided to sing that very emotional song.

How the hell did we wind up like this
Why weren't we able
To see the signs that we missed
And try to turn the tables

I wish you'd unclench your fists
And unpack your suitcase
Lately there's been too much of this
Dont think its too late

Nothin's wrong
just as long as
you know that someday I will

Someday, somehow
gonna make it allright but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
Someday, somehow
gonna make it allright but not right now
I know you're wondering when

Well i hoped that since we're here anyway
We could end up saying
Things we've always needed to say
So we could end up stringing
Now the story's played out like this
Just like a paperback novel
Lets rewrite an ending that fits
Instead of a hollywood horror

Nothin's wrong
just as long as
you know that someday I will

Someday, somehow
gonna make it allright but not right now
I know you're wondering when

I think you all need to be on medication. I'm on medication right now.

Spendin' my vacation in the summer sun,
Gettin' lots of action and a lots of fun,
Soarin' like a bandit 'til the bubble burst-
Suddenly it got to be September First.

Woe is me, all summer long I was happy and free,
Save my soul, the board of education took away my parole,
I gotta go back, back, back to school again.
You won't find 'til the clock strikes three;
I'm gonna be there 'til then...
I gotta go back, back, back to school again.
Whoa, whoa, I gotta go back... to school again!

Goemetry and History are just a pain,
Biology and Chemistry destroys my brain,
Well don't they that I deserve a better fate,
I'm really much too young to matriculate.

Well mamma please, Your child's come down with a fatal disease,
Mamma said, "Come on you lazy bum now get your butt outta bed!"
It's bye-bye fun, get your homework done
I gotta go back, back, back to school again,
Whoa, whoa, i gotta go... back to school again!

I got my books together, and I dragged my feet
Then I saw this angel boppin' down the street,
I said, "Hey pretty baby howsabout a date?"
She said, "i'm going to school, and I can't be late."

Well I can see that look in her eyes was sayin "Follow me,"
And I was caught- I thought about playin' hooky but on second thought,
I gotta go back, back, back to school again,
You won't find me 'til the clock strikes three;
I'm gonna be there 'til then...
I gotta go back, back, back to school again,
Whoa, whoa, I gotta go...back to school... again!!!



Now you can see I'm on medication. And I am!! What about that? I'm a pretty good singer on medication! WOW!

A perfect song for would be conquerors and general meglomaniacs such as myself...

Gilbert and Sullivan...and a list full of potential people to kill!

"As some day it may happen that a victim must be found,
I've got a little list--I've got a little list,
Of society offenders who might well be underground,
And who never would be missed--who never would be missed!

There's the pestilential nuisances who write for autographs,
All people who have flabby hands and irritating laughs,
All children who are up in dates, and floor you with 'em flat,
All persons who in shaking hands, shake hands with you like that,
And all third persons who on spoiling tête-à-têtes insist,
They'd none of 'em be missed--they'd none of 'em be missed!

He's got 'em on the list--he's got 'em on the list;
And they'll none of 'em be missed--they'll none of 'em be miss'd!

There's the banjo serenader, and the others of his race,
And the piano-organist--I've got him on the list!
And the people who eat peppermint and puff it in your face,
They never would be miss'd--they never would be miss'd!

Then the idiot who praises, with enthusiastic tone,
All centuries but this, and every country but his own;
And the lady from the provinces, who dresses like a guy,
And who "doesn't think she dances, but would rather like to try";
And that singular anomaly, the lady novelist--
I don't think she'd be missed--I'm sure she'd not he missed!

He's got her on the list--he's got her on the list;
And he don't think she'll be missed--he's sure she won't be miss'd!

And that Nisi Prius nuisance, who just now is rather rife,
The Judicial humorist--I've got him on the list!
All funny fellows, comic men, and clowns of private life,
They'd none of 'em be missed--they'd none of 'em be missed.

And apologetic statesmen of a compromising kind,
Such as--What d'ye call him--Thing'em-bob, and likewise--Never-mind,
And 'St--'st--'st--and What's-his-name, and also You-know-who--
The task of filling up the blanks I'd rather leave to you.
But it really doesn't matter whom you put upon the list,
For they'd none of 'em be missed--they'd none of 'em be missed!

You may put 'em on the list--you may put 'em on the list;
And they'll none of 'em be missed--they'll none of 'em be missed!"

Let's drop the Big One, and see what happens

We give them money, but are they grateful?
No, they're spiteful, and they're hateful.
They don't respectu us, so let's surprise them;
We'll drop the Big One, and pulverize 'em

Asia's crowded
Europe's too old
Africa is far too hot
and Canada's too cold
South America stole our name,
Let's drop the big one;
There'll be no one left to blame us.

We'll save Australia;
don't want to hurt no kangaroo.
We'll build an All-American amusement park there.
They got surfing too!!

BOOM goes London,
and BOOM Paris.
More room for you and more room for me!
And every city, the whole world round,
would just be another American town,

Oh, how peaceful it'll be; We'll set everybody free!!
There's a Japanese kimono for you; the Italian shoes for me!!

I remember that when I said I hadn't heard of Randy Newman, i believe you were like telling me who he was, and you said something about Toy Story, but I can't remembr what. Was it "You got a friend in me" or something? Or was it all the songs on Toy Story?

Hahah! My second song in a row that isn't by the Beatles.

"You'd think,
that people would have had enough of silly love songs,
But I look around me and I see it isn't so,
Some people wanna fill the world with silly love songs,

And what's wrong with that?
I'd like to know 'cause here I go again,
I love you,
I love you,
I love you,
I love you,
I can't explain,
the feeling's plain to me,
say,
can't you see,
What's wrong with that?

I need to know 'cause here I go again,
I love you,
I love you,
Love doesn't come in a minute,

Sometimes it doesn't come at all,
I only know that when I'm in it,

It isn't silly,
no,
it isn't silly,
'love isn't silly at all,
How can I tell you about my loved. one?
How can I tell you about my loved one?
I love you,
I love you,
I !ove you,
I love you,
I can't explain,
the feeling's plain to me,

Say,
can't you see?
Ah,
he gave me more,
he gave it all to me,

Say,
can't you see?

You'd think,
that people would have had enough of silly love songs
But I look around me and I see it isn't so,
oh,
no,
Some people wanna fill the world with silly love songs,

And what's wrong with that?"

This summarizes how I have been feeling for a few weeks now

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

i'm tired of being what you want me to be
feeling so faithless
lost under the surface
i don't know what you're expecting of me
put under the pressure
of walking in your shoes
caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
every step that I take is another mistake to you
caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow

i've
become so numb
i can't feel you there
become so tired
so much more aware
i'm becoming this
all I want to do
is be more like me
and be less like you


can't you see that you're smothering me?
holding too tightly
afraid to lose control
cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart, right in front of you
caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
every step that I take is another mistake to you
caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
and every second I waste is more than I can take

i've
become so numb
i can't feel you there
become so tired
so much more aware
i'm becoming this
all I want to do
is be more like me
and be less like you


And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me
With someone disappointed in you

i've
become so numb
i can't feel you there
become so tired
so much more aware
i'm becoming this
all I want to do
is be more like me
and be less like you


i've
become so numb
i can't feel you there

i'mt tired being what you want me to be

i've
become so numb
i can't feel you there

i'mt tired being what you want me to be

Re: Kareoke Bar!!
Post by icemandrake on Nov 21, 2003, 8:46pm

A lotta reasons, but mainly because I feel that everyone around me is expecting too much of me, I know thats the case with my parents. There are other reasons, but I have not been feeling up to usual QE hapiness level. You know you see me and I'm laughing and smiling and such forth. Quite a bit of the time since like a few weeks ago, it has been a facade.

Guess what was on TV yesterday?!! and with Hugh Jackman as Curly, nonetheless!!!!



I got to Kansas City on a Frid'y
By Sattidy I larned a thing or two
For up to then I didn't have an idy
Of whut the modren world was comin' to!
I counted twenty gas buggies goin' by theirsel's
Almost ev'ry time I tuk a walk.
'Nen I put my ear to a Bell Telephone and a strange womern started in to talk!
(Whut next! Yeak whut!)
Whut next?
Ev'rythin's up to date in Kansas City
They've gone about as fur as they c'n go!
They went and built a skyscraper seven stories high,
About as high as a buildin' orta grow.
Ev'rythin's like a dream in Kansas City,
It's better than a magic lantern show!
Y' c'n turn the radiator on whenever you want some heat.
With ev'ry kind o' comfort ev'ry house is all complete.
You c'n walk to privies in the rain and never wet your feet!
They've gone about as fur as they c'n go,
(Yes sir!)
They've gone about as fur as they c'n go!
Ev'rythin's up to date in Kansas City
They've gone about as fur as they c'n go!
They got a big theayter they call a burlesque.
Fer fifty cents you c'n see a dandy show.
One of the gals was fat and pink and pretty,
As round above as she was round below.
I could swear that she was padded from her shoulder to her heel,
But latter in the second act when she began to peel
She proved that ev'rythin' she had was absolutely real!
She went about as fur as she could go,
(Yes sir!)
She went about as fur as she could go!

Brand new state!
Brand new state, gonna treat you great!
Gonna give you barley, carrots and pertaters,
Pasture fer the cattle,
Spinach and termayters!
Flowers on the prarie where the June bugs zoom,
Plen'y of air and plen'y of room,
Plen'y of room to swing a rope!
Plen'y of heart and plen'y of hope.
Oklahoma, where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain
And the wavin' wheat can sure smell sweet
When the wind comes right behind the rain.
Oklahoma,
Ev'ry night my honey lamb and I
Sit alone and talk and watch a hawk
Makin' lazy circles in the sky.
We know we belong to the land
And the land we belong to is grand!
And when we say
Yeeow! Ayipioeeay!
We're only sayin'
You're doin' fine,
Oklahoma!
Oklahoma O.K.
Oklahoma, where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain
And the wavin' wheat can sure smell sweet
When the wind comes right behind the rain.
Oklahoma,
Ev'ry night my honey lamb and I
Sit alone and talk and watch a hawk
Makin' lazy circles in the sky.
We know we belong to the land
And the land we belong to is grand!
And when we say
Yeeow! Ayipioeeay!
We're only sayin'
You're doin' fine,
Oklahoma!
Oklahoma O.K.

This is my favorite song from the movie

(and shirtless Hugh Jackman was great. Just like in X-Men... X2 came out today!!!!!!!)



It ain't so much a question of not knowin' whut to do
I knowed what's right an' wrong since I've been ten.
I heared a lot of stories an' I reckon they're true
About how girls are put upon by men.
I know I mustn't fall into the pit
But when I'm with a feller
I fergit!
I'm just a girl who cain't say 'no'
I'm in a turrible fix!
I always say 'Come on, let's go' just when I aughta say 'Nix.'
When a person tries to kiss a girl
I know she aughta give his face a smack!
But as soon as someone kisses me
I somehow sorta want to kiss him back!
I'm just a fool when lights are low
I cain't be prissy an' quaint
I ain't the type that can faint
How can I be what I ain't?
I cain't say 'no!'
Whatcha gonna do when a feller gets flirty
An' starts to talk purty
Whatcha gonna do?
S'pposin' that he says
That yer lips are like cherrys,
er roses, or berries
Whatcha gonna do?
S'pposin' that he says
That yer sweeter than cream
and he's gotta have cream or die?
Whatcha gonna do when he talks that way?
Spit in his eye?
I'm jist a girl who cain't say no,
Cain't seem to say it at all
I hate to disserpoint a beau
When he is payin' a call!
Fer a while I ack refined and cool,
A settin on the velveteen setee
Nen I think of thet ol' golden rule,
And do fer him what he would do fer me!
I cain't resist a Romeo
In a sombrero and chaps
Soon as I sit on their laps
Somethin' inside of me snaps
I cain't say no!

My sister bought X:2! It's so hilarious!! Colossus is HOTTTTTTTTT (and in boxers!! Yes!)!! I'm sorry but who wouldn't wanna be in a surry with a fringe on top with Hugh Jackman? Speaking of a surry with a fringe on top,




When I take you out, tonight, with me,
Honey, here's the way it's goin' to be:
You will set behind a team of snow white horses,
In the slickest gig you ever see!

Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry
When I take you out in the surrey,
When I take you out in the surrey with the fringe on top!
Watch that fringe and see how it flutters
When I drive them high steppin' strutters.
Nosey pokes'll peek thru' their shutters and their eyes will pop!
The wheels are yeller, the upholstery's brown,
The dashboard's genuine leather,
With isinglass curtains y' can roll right down,
In case there's a change in the weather.
Two bright sidelight's winkin' and blinkin',
Ain't no finer rig I'm a-thinkin'
You c'n keep your rig if you're thinkin' 'at I'd keer to swap
Fer that shiny, little surrey with the fringe on the top!
All the world'll fly in a flurry
When I take you out in the surrey,
When I take you out in the surrey with the fringe on top!
When we hit that road, hell fer leather,
Cats and dogs'll dance in the heather,
Birds and frogs'll sing all together and the toads will hop!
The wind'll whistle as we rattle along,
The cows'll moo in the clover,
The river will ripple out a whispered song,
And whisper it over and over:
Don't you wisht y'd go on forever?
Don't you wisht y'd go on forever?
Don't you wisht y'd go on forever and ud never stop
In that shiny, little surrey with the fringe on the top!
I can see the stars gettin' blurry,
When we drive back home in the surrey,
Drivin' slowly home in the surrey with the fringe on top!
I can feel the day gettin' older,
Feel a sleepy head on my shoulder,
Noddin', droopin' close to my shoulder, till it falls kerplop!
The sun is swimmin' on the rim of a hill;
The moon is takin' a header,
And jist as I'm thinkin' all the earth is still,
A lark'll wake up in the medder.
Hush, you bird, my baby's a-sleepin'!
Maybe got a dream worth a-keepin'
Whoa! you team, and jist keep a-creepin' at a slow clip clop.
Don't you hurry with the surrey with the fringe on the top!


I just love this song! I love hugh Jackman!!!

Seriously, I don't think it had a name. We threw a couple of words together and said that's it.

All I remember it was a spoof of westerns. The saloon girls weren't all stunningly beautiful. The Hero couldn't see more than three feet in front of him. And the saloon girls saved the day by cloobering the bad guy with stilletos and then forcing him to cross-dress.

No seriously they were just water pistols.

The school was okayed to have regular fake guns but the script said distinctly said, "Water pistols."

There's one scene with the bad guy where the "Hero" Chance Abat-jour squirts water all over the bad guy's crotch so it looks like he peed himself.

I think Abat-jour is French for blind or something to that effective

Okay - so I cant sleep. It's not going to happen and I've given up on trying - despite the fact that this will be day two ... <thinks hard> and a half ... of being awake. But you cant squeeze blood from a rock now can you? Nor would you try.

So, as I have made mention - I am currently learning to play the drums - however - most everything I can play so far sounds like Brian Setzer Orchestra (The Stray Cats, etc) or something strait up big band/swing. I personally think it's a curse of sorts - that I cant play anything I generally listen to. <shrug> Oh well. Such is life.

And so I was banging away yesterday, just trying to keep my timing and still travel through a roll without losing it - and pick it up again at the end.

And I change the beat up a little to see how it sounds different ways - and I caught a groove.

So, I'm home.

I'm jamming.

No ones around or anywhere that's likely to be found - so I'm enjoying myself, doing whatever...

And then it happend.

Words just started forcing themselves out of my mouth.

Sent from above,
you should come out,
and we'll play 'love'.

Oh Kitty,Kitty!
What do I see?
You're lickin' your lips,
and lookin' at me!

Oh Kitty, Kitty!
Let's hear you roar.
We could throw down,
right here on the floor.

Oh Kitty, Kitty!
Like what you see?
I'm ready for you,
are you ready for me?

Hey Kitty, Kitty -

You make me scratch all night - And yowel all day!

"Standing in the dock at Southampton,
Trying to get to Holland or France,
The man in the mack said, "You've got to turn back",
You know they didn't even give us a chance.

Christ you know it ain't easy,
You know how hard it can be,
The way things are going,
They're going to crucify me.

Finally made the plane into Paris,
Honey mooning down by the Seine,
Peter Brown called to say,
"You can make it O.K.,
You can get married in Gibraltar, near Spain".

Christ you know it ain't easy,
You know how hard it can be,
The way things are going,
They're going to crucify me.

Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton,
Talking in our beds for a week,
The newspapers said, "Say what you doing in bed?"
I said, "We're only trying to get us some peace."

Christ you know it ain't easy,
You know how hard it can be,
The way things are going,
They're going to crucify me.

Saving up your money for a rainy day,
Giving all your clothes to charity,
Last night the wife said,
"Oh boy, when you're dead,
You don't take nothing with you,
But your soul - think!"

Made a lightning trip to Vienna,
eating chocolate cake in a bag,
The newspapers said, "She's gone to his head,
They look just like two gurus in drag".

Christ you know it ain't easy,
You know how hard it can be,
The way things are going,
They're going to crucify me.

Caught an early plane back to London,
Fifty acorns tied in a sack.,
The men from the press said, "We wish you success,
It's good to have the both of you back".

Christ you know it ain't easy,
You know how hard it can be,
The way things are going,
They're going to crucify me,
The way things are going,
They're going to crucify me."

When Karl Marx was a boy
he took a hard look around
He saw people were starving all over the place
while others were painting the town
The public spirited boy
became a public spirited man
So he worked very hard and he read everything
until he came up with a plan

There'll be no exploitation
of the worker or his kin
No discrimination 'cause of the color of your
skin
No more private property
It would not be allowed
No one could rise too high
No one could sink too low
or go under completely like some we all know

If Marx were living today
he'd be rolling around in his grave
And if I had him here in my mansion on the hill
I'd tell him a story t'would give his old heart
a chill

It's something that happened to me
I'd say, Karl I recently stumbled
into a new family
with two little children in school
where all little children should be
I went to the orientation
All the young mommies were there
Karl, you never have seen such a glorious sight
as these beautiful women arrayed for the night
just like countesses, empresses, movie stars and
queens
And they'd come there with men much like me
Froggish men, unpleasant to see
Were you to kiss one, Karl
Nary a prince would there be

Oh Karl the world isn't fair
It isn't and never will be
They tried out your plan
It brought misery instead
If you'd seen how they worked it
you'd be glad you were dead
just like I'm glad I'm living in the land of the
free
where the rich just get richer
and the poor you don't ever have to see
It would depress us, Karl
Because we care
that the world still isn't fair

*IP yeahs, and was hoping evil would post that. Who's it by again? Oh and speaking of Who...

"No one knows what it's like,
To be the bad man,
To be the sad man,
Behind blue eyes .
No one knows what it's like,
To be hated,
To be fated,
To telling only lies.

But my dreams,
They aren't as empty,
As my conscience seems to be.

I have hours, only lonely,
My love is vengeance,
That's never free.

No one knows what it's like,
To feel these feelings,
Like I do,
And I blame you.

No one bites back as hard,
On their anger,
None of my pain and woe,
Can show through.

But my dreams,
They aren't as empty,
As my conscience seems to be.

I have hours, only lonely,
My love is vengeance,
That's never free.

When my fist clenches, crack it open,
Before I use it and lose my cool.
When I smile, tell me some bad news,
Before I laugh and act like a fool .

If I swallow anything evil,
Put your finger down my throat.
If I shiver, please give me a blanket,
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat.

No one knows what it's like,
To be the bad man,
To be the sad man,
Behind blue eyes."

When I get older losing my hair
Many years from now
Will you still be sending me a valentine
Birthday greetings bottle of wine

If I'd been out till quarter to three
Would you lock the door
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four

You'll be older too
And if you say the word
I could stay with you

I could be handy, mending a fuse
When your lights have gone
You can knit a sweater by the fireside
Sunday mornings go for a ride
Doing the garden, digging the weeds
Who could ask for more
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four

Every summer we can rent a cottage
In the Isle of Wight, if it's not too dear
We shall scrimp and save
Grandchildren on your knee
Vera Chuck & Dave

Send me a postcard, drop me a line
Stating point of view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say
Yours sincerely, wasting away
Give me your answer, fill in a form
Mine for evermore
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I'm sixty-four

"For the benefit of Mr. Kite,
There will be a show tonight,
On trampoline.

The Hendersons will all be there.
Late of Pablo Fanques Fair;
What a scene.

Over men and horses, hoops and garters,
Lastly, through a hogshead of real fire;
In this way Mr. K will challenge the world!

The celebrated Mr. K,
Performs his feat on Saturday,
At Bishopsgate.

The Hendersons will dance and sing,
As Mr. Kite flies through the ring.
Don't be late!

Messrs. K and H assure the public,
Their production will be second to none.
And, of course, Henry the horse dances the waltz!

The band begins at ten to six,
When Mr. K performs his tricks,
Without a sound.

And Mr. H will demonstrate;
Ten somersets he'll undertake,
On solid ground.

Having been some days in preparation,
A splendid time is guaranteed for all
And tonight Mr. Kite is topping the bill."

We all know the girls that I am
talking about
Well they are time bombs and they are
ticking
And the only question's when they'll
blow up
And they'll blow up; we know that
without a doubt
Cause they're those girls, yeah you
know those girls that let their
emotions get the best of them
Ans i've contrived some sort of a plan
to help my fellow man
Let's get emotional girls to all wear
mood rings
So we'll be tipped off when they're
ticked off
Cause we'll know just what they're
thinking
She's so pretty but she doesn't always
act that way
Her mood's out swinging on the
swingset on the swing set almost
every day
She said to me that she's so happy it's
depressing
And all i said was someone get that
girl a mood ring
If it's drama you want then look no
further
They're like the real world meets boy
meets world meets days of our lives
And it just kills me how they get away
with murder
They'll anger you then bat their eyes;
those pretty eyes that watch you
sympathize cause when it's black it
means watch your back because you're
probly
The last person in the world right now
she wants to see
And when it's green it simply means
that she is really stressed
And when it's clear it means she's
cmpletely emotionless, and that's
alright I must confess!
We all know the girls that I am
talking about
She liked you Wednesday but now it's
Friday and she has to wash her hair
And it just figures that we'll never
figure them out
Firsy she's Jekyll and then she's Hyde
...at least she makes a lovely pair
Mood ring oh mood ring
Oh tell me will you bring
The key to unlock this mystery
Of girls and their emotions
Play it back in slow motion
So I may understand the complex
infrastructure known as the female
mindTEXT

there lived a man who sailed to sea
And he told us of his life
In the land of submarines

So we saild into the sun
Until we found the sea of green
And we lived beneath the waves
In our yellow submarine

We all live in a yellow submarine,
yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in a yellow submarine,

And our friends are all aboard,
Many more of them live next door,
And the band begins to play,

We all live in a yellow submarine,
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine,
We all live in a yellow submarine,

As we live the life of ease
Everyone of us (everyone of us) has all we need(all we need)

To heal my heart and drown my woe.

But under a tall tree I will lie,
And let the clouds go sailing by.

"Creme tangerine and montelimat,

A coffee desert-yes you know it's good news,
But you'll have to have them all pulled out,
After the Savoy truffle.

Cool cherry cream and a nice apple tart,
I feel your tase all the time we're apart,
Coconut fudge-really blows down those blues,
But you'll have to have them all pulled out,
After the Savoy truffle.

You might not feel it now,
But when the pain cuts through,
You're going to know and how,
The sweat is going to fill your head.
When it becomes too much,
You're going to shout aloud.
-Creme tangerine.

You know that what you eat you are,
But what is sweet now, turns so sour-
We all know Obla-Di-Bla-Da
But can you show me, where you are?

I went to Kansas City on a Friday
By Saturday I learned a thing or two
But up 'till then I didn't have an idea
Of what the mod'rn world was comin' to.
I counted twenty gas buggies goin' by theirselves
Almost every time I took a walk
An' then I put my ear to a bell telephone
An' a strange woman started into talk.

What next! What next?

Everything's up to date in Kansas City
They gone about as fer as they can go
They went an' built a skyscraper seven stories high
'bout as high as a buildin' outta grow.

Everything's like a dream in Kansas City
It's better than a magic lantern show.
You can turn the radiator on whenever you want some heat
With every kind of comfort every house is all complete.
You could walk the privees in the rain and never wet your feet!
They've gone about as fer as they can go.
They've gone about as fer as they can go!


Everything's up to date in Kansas City
They've gone about as fer as they can go
They got a big theatre they call a burleque
For fifty cents you could see a dandy show!
One of the gals is fat and pink and pretty
As round above as she was round below
I could swear that she was padded from her shoulder to her heel
But then she started dancin' and her dancin' made me feel
That every single thing she had was absolutely real!
She went about as fer as she could go
Yes, Sir! She went about as fer as she could go!

*IP hails Andrew Lloyd Webber and his adaption of the Phantom of the Opera!

I have brought you,
to the seat of sweet,
music's throne,
to this kingdom,
where all must pay,
homage to music,
music.

You have come here,
for one purpose,
and one alone.
Since the moment,
I first heard you sing,
I have needed,
you with me,
to serve me, to sing,
for my music,
my music.

Night-time sharpens,
heightens each sensation.
Darkness stirs and
wakes imagination.
Silently the senses,
abandon their defences.

Slowly, gently,
night unfurls its splendour.
Grasp it, sense it -
tremulous and tender.
Turn your face away,
from the garish light of day,
turn your thoughts away,
from cold, unfeeling light,
and listen to,
the music of the night.

Close your eyes,
and surrender to your,
darkest dreams!
Purge your thoughts,
of the life,
you knew before!
Close your eyes,
let your spirit,
start to soar!
And you'll live,
as you've never,
lived before.

Softly, deftly,
music shall surround you.
Feel it, hear it,
closing in around you.
Open up your mind,
let your fantasies unwind,
in this darkness which,
you know you cannot fight -
the darkness of,
the music of the night.

Let your mind,
start a journey through a,
strange new world!
Leave all thoughts,
of the world,
you knew before!
Let your soul,
Take you where you,
long to be!
Only then,
can you belong,
to me.

Floating, falling,
sweet intoxication!
Touch me, trust me,
savour each sensation!
Let the dream begin,
let your darker side give in,
to the power of the music that I write -
the power of the music of the night."

I...am an anime fan...and whilst watching a great series known as Neon Genesis Evangelion...I came across the most cheerful end of the world song I've ever heard...

Below, I post the lyrics for you...and encourage you to imagine them sung to a cheerful, peppy tune...

Kom Susser Todd (come sweet death)

I know, I know I've let you down
I've been a fool to myself
I thought that I could
live for no one else
But now through all the hurt & pain
It's time for me to respect
the ones you love
mean more than anything
So with sadness in my heart
(I) feel the best thing I could do
is end it all
and leave forever
what's done is done it feels so bad
what once was happy now is sad
I'll never love again
my world is ending

I wish that I could turn back time
cos now the guilt is all mine
can't live without
the trust from those you love
I know we can't forget the past
you can't forget love & pride
because of that, it's killing me inside

It all returns to nothing, it all comes
tumbling down. tumbling down.
tumbling down
It all returns to nothing, I just keep
letting me down, letting me down,
letting me down
In my heart of hearts
I know that I could never love again
I've lost everything
everything
everything that matters to me,
matters in this world

I wish that I could turn back time
cos now the guilt is all mine
can't live without
the trust from those you love
I know we can't forget the past
you can't forget love & pride
because of that, it's killing me inside

It all returns to nothing, it all comes
tumbling down. tumbling down.
tumbling down
It all returns to nothing, I just keep
letting me down, letting me down,
letting me down
It all returns to nothing, it all comes
tumbling down. tumbling down.
tumbling down
It all returns to nothing, I just keep
letting me down, letting me down,
letting me down

All hail Monty Python!

Spoken: The world today seems absolutely crackers.
With nuclear bombs to blow us all sky high.
There are fools and idiots sitting on the trigger.
It's depressing, and it's senseless, and that's why...

Intro: I like Chinese,
I like Chinese,
They only come up to your knees,
Yet they're always friendly and they're ready to please.

Verse: I like Chinese,
I like Chinese,
There's nine hundred million of them in the world today,
You'd better learn to like them, that's what I say.

Chorus: I like Chinese,
I like Chinese,
They come from a long way overseas,
But they're cute and they're cuddly, and they're ready to please.

Verse: I like chinese food,
The waiters never are rude,
Think of the many things they've done to impress,
There's Maoism, Taoism, I Ching and chess.

Chorus: So I like Chinese,
I like Chinese,
I like their tiny little trees,
Their Zen, their ping-pong, their
yin and yang-ese.

Verse: I like Chinese thought,
The wisdom that Confucious taught,
If Darwin is anything to shout about,
The Chinese will survive us all without any doubt.

Chorus: So I like Chinese,
I like Chinese,
They only come up to your knees,
Yet they're wise and they're witty, and they're ready to please.

Verse: (in Chinese)

Chorus: I like Chinese,
I like Chinese,
Their food is guaranteed to please,
A fourteen, a seven, a nine and lychees.

Chorus: I like Chinese,
I like Chinese,
I like their tiny little trees,
Their Zen, their ping-pong, their yin and yang-ese.

Fade: I like Chinese,
I like Chinese...

Hrm, I've been meaning to post this for a while...

"You may not believe it,
But I don't believe in miracles anymore,
And when I think about it,
I don't believe I ever did for sure,
All the things I've said in songs,
All the purple prose you bought from me,
Reality's just black and white,
The sentimental things I'd write,
Never meant that much to me.

I used to be the main express,
All steam and whistles heading west,
Picking up my pain from door to door,
Riding on the storyline,
Furnace burning overtime.
But this train don't stop,
This train don't stop,
This train don't stop there anymore.

You don't need to hear it,
But I'm dried up and sick to death of love.
If you need to know it,
I never really understood that stuff.
All the stars and bleeding hearts,
All the tears that welled up in my eyes,
Never meant a thing to me,
Read 'em as they say and weep,
I've never felt enough to cry.

I used to be the main express,
All steam and whistles heading west,
Picking up my pain from door to door,
Riding on the storyline,
Furnace burning overtime.
But this train don't stop,
This train don't stop,
This train don't stop there anymore.

When I said that I don't care,
It really means my engine's breaking down.
The chisel chips my heart again,
The granite cracks beneath my skin,
I crumble into pieces on the ground.

I used to be the main express,
All steam and whistles heading west,
Picking up my pain from door to door,
Riding on the storyline,
Furnace burning overtime.
But this train don't stop,
This train don't stop,
This train don't stop there anymore."

Ever have one of those songs that you hear, years past, that speaks to you? You keep it with you, never truly forgetting it...and it defines you more than you care to realize?

Depeche Mode: Walking in my shoes

I would tell you about the things
They put me through
The pain I've been subjected to
But the Lord himself would blush
The countless feasts laid at my feet
Forbidden fruits for me to eat
But I think your pulse would start to rush

Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes

Morality would frown upon
Decency look down upon
The scapegoat fate's made of me
But I promise now, my judge and jurors
My intentions couldn't have been purer
My case is easy to see

I'm not looking for a clearer conscience
Peace of mind after what I've been through
And before we talk of any repentance
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes

Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

*IP gets the right to abuse his RPG powers, of course.

*IP bends the metal of the cage, releasing Gambit into the wild. I mean, the Bar.

Next up....He's evil, plotting, cruel, immoral...the living embodiment of his name...he's Mr. Sinister!

(What? They can't all be Gambit! And I can't auction Kurt off...Jag threathened me with leftover Kitty-Muffins if I let him out again. Now where's my rum?)

figured it might be time for another time, so here's one of my favorites...

Oh, come on, come on, come on, come on!

Didn't I make you feel like you were the only man — yeah!
An' didn't I give you nearly everything that a woman possibly can ?
Honey, you know I did!
And each time I tell myself that I, well I think I've had enough,
But I'm gonna show you, baby, that a woman can be tough.

I want you to come on, come on, come on, come on and take it,
Take it!
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby!
Oh, oh, break it!
Break another little bit of my heart now, darling, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, oh, have a!
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby,
You know you got it if it makes you feel good,
Oh, yes indeed.

You're out on the streets looking good,
And baby deep down in your heart I guess you know that it ain't right,
Never, never, never, never, never, never hear me when I cry at night,
Babe, and I cry all the time!
But each time I tell myself that I, well I can't stand the pain,
But when you hold me in your arms, I'll sing it once again.

I'll say come on, come on, come on, come on and take it!
Take it!
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby.
Oh, oh, break it!
Break another little bit of my heart now, darling, yeah,
Oh, oh, have a!
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby,
You know you got it, child, if it makes you feel good.

I need you to come on, come on, come on, come on and take it,
Take it!
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby!
Oh, oh, break it!
Break another little bit of my heart, now darling, yeah, c'mon now.
Oh, oh, have a
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby.
You know you got it — whoahhhhh!!

Take it!
Take it! Take another little piece of my heart now, baby,
Oh, oh, break it!
Break another little bit of my heart, now darling, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Oh, oh, have a
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby, hey,
You know you got it, child, if it makes you feel good.

Well, since we're back to songs....

"What will you do when you get lonely
No one waiting by your side?
You've been running and hiding much too long;
You know, it's just your foolish pride.

Layla, you got me on my knees. Layla,
I'm begging darling please. Layla,
Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?

I tried to give you consolation;
When your old man had let you down.
Like a fool, I fell in love with you;
You turned my whole world upside down.

Layla, you got me on my knees. Layla,
I'm begging darling please. Layla,
Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?

Let's make the best of the situation
Before I finally go insane.
Please don't say we'll never find a way
And tell me all my love's in vain.

Layla, you got me on my knees. Layla,
I'm begging darling please. Layla,
Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?

Layla, you got me on my knees. Layla,
I'm begging darling please. Layla,
Darling, won't you ease my worried mind?"

Is better than a kiss
When you leave me
Sweet kisses I miss

I've got hungry eyes
I feel the magic between you and I

I wanna hold you so hear me out
I wanna show you what love's all about
Darlin' tonight
Now I've got you in my sights

With these hungry eyes

No I never felt like this before
Yes I swear it's the truth
And I owe it all to you
'Cause I've had the time of my life
And I owe it all to you

I've been waiting for so long
Now I've finally found someone
To stand by me
We saw the writing on the wall
As we felt this magical
Fantasy

Now with passion in our eyes
There's no way we could disguise it
Secretly
So we take each other's hand
'Cause we seem to understand
The urgency
Just remember

You're the one thing
I can't get enough of
So I'll tell you something
This could be love because

I've had the time of my life
No I never felt this way before
Yes I swear it's the truth
And I owe it all to you

Hey, baby

With my body and soul
I want you more than you'll ever know
So we'll just let it go
Don't be afraid to lose control, no
Yes I know what's on your mind
When you say, "Stay with me tonight"
Just remember

You're the one thing
I can't get enough of
So I'll tell you something
This could be love because

I've had the time of my life
No I never felt this way before
Yes I swear it's the truth
And I owe it all to you


But I've had the time of my life
And I've searched though every open door
Till I found the truth
And I owe it all to you

(SOLO)

Now I've had the time of my life
No I never felt this way before
Yes I swear it's the truth
And I owe it all to you

I've had the time of my life
No I never felt this way before
Yes I swear it's the truth
And I owe it all to you

And I've searched though every open door

I'm still fond of Newsies myself.


A pair of new shoes with mathcin' laces,
A permanent box at the Sheepshead races!
A porcelain tub with boilin' water,
A Saturday night with the mayor's daughter!

Look at me, I'm the king of New York!
Suddenly I'm respectable
Starin' right at 'cha
lousy with stature!

Nubbin' with all the muckety-mucks,
I'm blowin' my dough and goin' deluxe.

And there I be,
Ain't I pretty?

I'm the King of New York!

A corderoy suit with fitted knickers,
A mezzanine seat to see the flickers,
Havana cigars that cost a quarter,
An editors desk for the start reporter!

Tip your hat he's the king of New York

How bout that I'm the king of New York

In nothin' flat he'll be coverin'
Brooklyn to Trenton
Our man Denton,

Makin' a headline out of a hunch

Protectin' the weak,

And payin' for lunch,

When I'm at bat,
Strong men crumble,

Proud yet humble

I'm (he's) the king of New York.

I gotta be either dead or dreamin',
'Cause looka at that pape with my face beamin',
Tomorrow they may wrap fishes in it,
But I was a star for one whole minute!

Startin' now I'm the king of New York,

Ain't ya heard,
I'm the king of New York

Holy cow it's a miracle
Pulitzer's cryin' weasel he's dyin'
Flash pots are shootin' bright as the sun
I'm one highfalutin' son-of-a-gun
Don't ask me how,
Fortune found me
Fate just crowned me
I'm the king of New York
Look and see,
Once a piker now a striker
I'm the king of New York
VICTORY!
Front page story
Guts and glory
I'm the King of New York!

Post by steahl on Jan 26, 2004, 7:23pm

*happens to be just another nobody that loves Newsies* Alas, this song is from Shrek...the best song on the CD in my opinion...

I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Maybe I have been here before
I know this room, I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

There was a time you'd let me know
What's real and going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
And remember when I moved in you
The holy dark was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Maybe there's a God above
And all I ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
And it's not a cry you can hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

*IP's watched "It Happened One Night" one too many times...

Once I was happy, but now I'm forlorn
Like an old coat that is tattered and torn,
Left on this world to fret and to mourn,
Betrayed by a maid in her teens.
The girl that I loved, she was handsome,
I tried all I knew her to please,
But I could not please her one quarter so
well,
As the man upon the trapeze.

He'd fly through the air with greatest
of ease,
That daring young man on the flying
trapeze,
His movements were graceful,
All girls he could please,
And my love he has taken away!

This young man by name was Signor Bona Slang,
Tall, big and handsome, as well made as Chang.
Where'er he appeared the hall loudly rang
With ovation from all people there.
He'd smile from the bar on the people below
And one night he smiled on my love.
She wink'd back at him and she shouted "Bravo,"
As he hung by his nose up above.

He'd fly through the air with greatest
of ease,
That daring young man on the flying
trapeze,
His movements were graceful,
All girls he could please,
And my love he has taken away!"

Tell me where your posting and I'll look at her, see if I can't offer some pointers...

Just start her off somewhere, like the mall or the club, and get her somewhere, or try and come in contact with someone, and go.


(on another note, I love Newsies!!! I haven't seen it in forever, but I used to watch it religiously)

Rana, don't worry about being recruted right off the bat. X23 is still hanging there and I'm thinking of having her go to the acoylites and then play with Creed for a while cause it would be really funny. Then have her get mad and go to the X-Men after some time has passed or something. But for now she's just wandering in the forest and I have the feeling that she's gonna stay there for a while, so if you want to go take your chara there, I'll try and get something up.

You'll get it eventually, and until then, drown your thoughts in beer and bad singing!

Thanks everyone. I'm just new at this. I'm trying to be recruited to the acolytes. PoT said he'd help me so that's good. I think I'll take you up on that suggestion Heir. On both suggestions actually. I am a bad singer so it works!!

Evil I love you!! I watch it religiously! You can up to my house and we'll watch it!! No on second thought don't come to my house, it's 15 degrees up here. I have an idea come up during the summer when it's warmer up here and we'll watch it.

Well, after lot of nothin I decided to come here. And, after a random draw this here's the song that came up.

*AHEM*

Hey man! I'm alive
I'm taken each day
and night at a time.
I'm feelin like a Monday but someday I'll be
Saturday night.

Hey my name is Jim where did I go wrong?
My life's a bargain basement all the good shits gone.
Just can't hold a job,
where do I belong?
Been sleepin in my car, my dreams move on...

My name is Billy Jean my love is bought an sold,
I'm only sixteen I feel a hundred years old.
My foster daddy went took my innocence away,
the street life ain't much better
but at least I'm getting paid.

Tueday just might go my way
it can't get worse than yesterday.
Thursdays, Fridays ain't been kind
but somehow I survive

Hey man, I'm alive
I'm takin each day an night at a time.
Yeah I'm down but I know I'll get by.
Hey Hey Hey Heyy man
I've gotta live my life
Like I ain't got nothin but this roll of the dice
I'm feelin like a Monday but someday I'll be
Saturday night.


Now I can't say my name or tell you where I am.
I wanna blow myself away,
don't know if I can
I wish that I could be
some other time an place.
With someone else's soul
someone else's face

Tueday just might go my way
it can't get worse than yesterday.
Thursdays, Fridays ain't been kind
but somehow I survive

Hey man, I'm alive
I'm takin each day an night at a time.
Yeah, I'm down, but I know I'll get by.
Hey Hey Hey Heyyy man
I've gotta live my life
I'm gonna pick up all the pieces
an what's left of my Pride
I'm feelin like a Monday but someday I'll be
Saturday night.

OOoooohh

Someday
I'll be Saturday night
I'll be back on my feet
I'll be doin all right
It may not be tomorrow

I ain't going down
I'm gonna find a way!

Hey Hey Heyyy Man I'm alive
I'm takin each day an night at a time.
Yeah I'm down but I know I'll get by.
Hey hey hey heyyy man
I'm gonna live my life,

Didn't get to bed last night.

You don't know how lucky you are, boy,
Back in the U.S.S.R.

Been away so long I hardly knew the place,
Gee, it's good to be back home.
Leave it till tomorrow to unpack my case,
Honey, disconnect the phone...

I'm back in the U.S.S.R
You don't know how lucky you are, boy,
Back in the U.S, back in the U.S, back in the U.S.S.R!

Well the Ukraine girls really knock me out,
They leave the west behind.
And the Moscow girls make me sing and shout,
That Georgia's always on my my my my my my mi-ind!

Great Matchbox 20 song!!!

Unwell

All day staring at the ceiling
Making friends with shadows on my wall
All night hearing voices telling me
That I should get some sleep
Because tomorrow might be good for something

Hold on
Feeling like I'm headed for a breakdown
And I don't know why

[Chorus]

But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be...me

I'm talking to myself in public
Dodging glances on the train
And I know, I know they've all been talking about me
I can hear them whisper
And it makes me think there must be something wrong with me
Out of all the hours thinking
Somehow I've lost my mind

[Chorus]

But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be

I've been talking in my sleep
Pretty soon they'll come to get me
Yeah, they're taking me away

[Chorus]

But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be

Yeah, how I used to be
How I used to be
Well, I'm just a little unwell
How I used to be
How I used to be
I'm just a little unwell

I always liked this song,

Desmond has a barrow in the market place,
Molly is the singer in a band,
Desmond says to Molly Girl I like your face,
And Molly says this as she takes him by the hand,

Ob La Di, Ob La Da, Life goes on, BRA!
La la how the life goes on,
Ob La Di, Ob La Da, Life goes on, BRA!
La la how the life goes on,

Desmond takes a trolly to the jewlers store,
Buys a twenty carat golden ring,
Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door,
And as he gives it to her she begins to sing,

Ob La Di, Ob La Da, Life goes on, BRA!
La la how the life goes on,
Ob La Di, Ob La Da, Life goes on, BRA!
La la how the life goes on,

In a couple of years they have built
A home sweet, home
With a couple of kids running in the yard,
Of Desmond and Molly Jones,

Happy ever after in the market place,
Desmond lets the children lend a hand,
Molly stays at home and does her pretty face,
And in the evening she still sings it with the band,

Ob La Di, Ob La Da, Life goes on, BRA!
La la how the life goes on,
Ob La Di, Ob La Da, Life goes on, BRA!
La la how the life goes on,

In a couple of years they have built
A home sweet, home,
With a couple of kids running in the yard,
Of Desmond and Molly Jones,

Happy ever safter in the market place,
Molly lets the children lend a hand,
Desmond stays at home and does his pretty face,
And in the evening she's a singer with the band,

Ob La Di, Ob La Da, Life goes on, BRA!
La la how the life goes on,
Ob La Di, Ob La Da, Life goes on, BRA!
La la how the life goes on,

And if you want some fun, - Take Ob La Di Bla Da!

I love that song!

Traveling in a fried-out combie
On a hippie trail, head full of zombie
I met a strange lady, she made me nervous
She took me in and gave me breakfast
And she said,

"Do you come from a land down under?
Where women glow and men plunder?
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover."

Buying bread from a man in Brussels
He was six foot four and full of muscles
I said, "Do you speak-a my language?"
He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich
And he said,

"I come from a land down under
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover."

Lying in a den in Bombay
With a slack jaw, and not much to say
I said to the man, "Are you trying to tempt me
Because I come from the land of plenty?"
And he said,

"Oh! Do you come from a land down under? (oh yeah yeah)
Where women glow and men plunder?
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover."

in pursuit of
your deepest urge,
in pursuit of
that wish,
which till now
has been silent,
silent . . .

I have brought you,
that our passions
may fuse and merge -
in your mind
you’ve already
succumbed to me
dropped all defences
completely succumbed to me -
now you are here with me:
no second thoughts,
you’ve decided,
decided . . .

Past the point
of no return -
no backward glances:
the games we’ve played
till now are at
an end . . .
Past all thought
of “if” or “when” -
no use resisting:
abandon thought,
and let the dream
descend . . .

What raging fire
shall flood the soul?
What rich desire
unlocks its door?
What sweet seduction
lies before
us . . .?

Past the point
of no return,
the final threshold -
what warm,
unspoken secrets
will we learn?
Beyond the point
of no return . . ."

Porque tu me faltas
quiero darle al alma
el consuelo que le falta
porque el pensamiento
no le gane al tiempo
y sentirlo que me mata.

Aunque estes adentro
y este sentimiento
se me antoje eterno
esta lejanía
duele cada día
porque no te tengo
no tengo tu boca
no tengo tus ganas
y por más que intento
ya no entiendo nada.

De esta vida loca, loca, loca
con su loca realidad
que se ha vuelto loca, loca, loca
por buscar otro lugar
pero le provoca
este sufrimiento

Masquerade!
Paper faces on parade . . .
Masquerade!
Hide your face,
so the world will
never find you!

Masquerade!
Every face a different shade . . .
Masquerade!
Look around -
there's another
mask behind you!

Flash of mauve . . .
Splash of puce . . .
Fool and king . . .
Ghoul and goose . . .
Green and black . . .
Queen and priest . . .
Trace of rouge . . .
Face of beast . . .

Faces . . .
Take your turn, take a ride
on the merry-go-round . . .
in an inhuman race . . .
Eye of gold . . .
Thigh of blue . . .
True is false . . .
Who is who . . .?
Curl of lip . . .
Swirl of gown . . .
Ace of hearts . . .
Face of clown . . .

Faces . . .
Drink it in, drink it up,
till you've drowned
in the light . . .
in the sound . . .
But who can name the face . . .?

Masquerade!
Grinning yellows,
spinning reds . . .
Masquerade!
Take your fill -
let the spectacle
astound you!

Masquerade!
Burning glances,
turning heads . . .
Masquerade!
Stop and stare
at the sea of smiles
around you!

Masquerade!
Seething shadows
breathing lies . . .
Masquerade!
You can fool
any friend who
ever knew you!

Masquerade!
Leering satyrs,
peering eyes . . .
Masquerade!
Run and hide -
but a face will
still pursue you!

What a night
What a crowd!
Makes you glad!
Makes you proud!
All the creme
de la creme!
Watching us watching them!

And all our fears
are in the past!
Six months...
Of relief!
Of delight!
Of Elysian peace!

And we can breathe at last!
No more notes!
No more ghost!

Here's a health!
Here's a toast:
to a prosperous year!
To the new chandelier!

And may its
splendour never fade!

Six months!
What a joy!
What a change!
What a blessed release!
And what a masquerade!

Masquerade!
Paper faces on parade!
Masquerade!
Hide your face,
so the world will
never find you!

Masquerade!
Every face a different shade!
Masquerade!
Look around -
There's another
mask behind you!

Masquerade!
Burning glances,
turning heads . . .
Masquerade!
Stop and stare
at the sea of smiles
around you!

Masquerade!
Grinning yellows,
spinning reds . . .
Masquerade!
Take your fill -
let the spectacle
astound you!

As for the translation, este means this, not east, which is estre, and estes is supposed to be estés, which is the subjunctive tú form of estar, to be.

Okay, so I'm bored, and tired, and there's nothing to eat or drink here. I have no clean socks for tomorrow, and REALLY don't want to go to school in the morning.
That's after my job ran me into the ground this weekend and tried to kill me. *sigh*

Sound the bugle now
Play it just for me.
As the season's change
remember how I used to be

Now I can't go on
I can't even start.
I got nothin left,
just an empty heart.

I'm a soldier,
wounded so I must give up the fight
There's nothing more for me
lead me away...
or leave me lying here.

Sound the bugle now
tell them I don't care
there's not a road I know
that leads to anywhere.

Without a light I fear
that I will stumble in the dark
lay right down and decide
not to go on.

Then from on high
somewhere in the distance
there's a voice that calls
Remember who you are.

If you lose yourself
your courage soon will follow
so be strong tonight....
Remember who you are.

Yeah
You're a soldier now
Fighting in a battle
to be free once more...
yeah, that's worth fighting for.

I think you all will like this song,

Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
Silently the senses abandon their defences

Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendour
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
Turn your face away from the garish light of day
Turn your face away from cold, unfeeling light
And listen to the music of the night

Close you eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar
And you'll live as you've never lived before

Softly, deftly, music shall caress you
Hear it, feel it, secretly possess you
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
In this darkness which you know you cannot fight
The darkness of the music of the night

Let your mind start a journey through a strange, new world
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
Let your soul take you where you long to go
Only then can you belong to me

Floating, falling, sweet intoxication
Touch me, trust me, savour each sensation
Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in
To the harmony which dreams alone can write
The power of the music of the night

You alone can make my song take flight
Help me make the music of the night


*grabs box of tissues* That song always makes me cry. *continuously grabs tissues*

I"m in a bad mood...I really am...and a fatalistic one...

So here we go...

Everybody KNows, Leonard Cohen.

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows that the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That's how it goes
Everybody knows
Everybody knows that the boat is leaking
Everybody knows that the captain lied
Everybody got this broken feeling
Like their father or their dog just died

Everybody talking to their pockets
Everybody wants a box of chocolates
And a long stem rose
Everybody knows

Everybody knows that you love me baby
Everybody knows that you really do
Everybody knows that you've been faithful
Ah give or take a night or two
Everybody knows you've been discreet
But there were so many people you just had to meet
Without your clothes
And everybody knows

Everybody knows, everybody knows
That's how it goes
Everybody knows

Everybody knows, everybody knows
That's how it goes
Everybody knows

And everybody knows that it's now or never
Everybody knows that it's me or you
And everybody knows that you live forever
Ah when you've done a line or two
Everybody knows the deal is rotten
Old Black Joe's still pickin' cotton
For your ribbons and bows
And everybody knows

And everybody knows that the Plague is coming
Everybody knows that it's moving fast
Everybody knows that the naked man and woman
Are just a shining artifact of the past
Everybody knows the scene is dead
But there's gonna be a meter on your bed
That will disclose
What everybody knows

And everybody knows that you're in trouble
Everybody knows what you've been through
From the bloody cross on top of Calvary
To the beach of Malibu
Everybody knows it's coming apart
Take one last look at this Sacred Heart
Before it blows
And everybody knows

Everybody knows, everybody knows
That's how it goes
Everybody knows

Oh everybody knows, everybody knows
That's how it goes
Everybody knows

Everybody knows

Well, *IP doesn't feel like digging out my dear Phantom CD...So, instead...Elton John!

"Don't wish it away
Don't look at it like it's forever
Between you and me
I could honestly say
That things can only get better

And while I'm away
Dust out the demons inside
And it won't be long
Before you and me run
To the place in our hearts
Where we hide

And I guess that's why
They call it the blues
Time on my hands
Could be time spent with you
Laughing like children
Living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess that's why
They call it the blues

Just stare into space
Picture my face in your hands
Live for each second
Without hesitation
And never forget I'm your man

Wait on me girl
Cry in the night if it helps
But more than ever I simply love you
More than I love life itself

And I guess that's why
They call it the blues
Time on my hands
Could be time spent with you
Laughing like children
Living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess that's why
They call it the blues

Wait on me girl
Cry in the night if it helps
But more than ever I simply love you
More than I love life itself

And I guess that's why
They call it the blues
Time on my hands
Could be time spent with you
Laughing like children
Living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess that's why
They call it the blues

{Laughing like children
Living like lovers}
And I guess that's why
They call it the blues

{Laughing like children
Living like lovers}
And I guess that's why
They call it the blues

And I guess that's why
They call it the blues."

I offer up on eof my favorite singers...

Sting!

After the Rain has Fallen

The palace guards are all sleeping
Their fires burn into the night
There's a threat of rain on the dark horizon
And all that's left is a quarter moon of light

He climbs up through the darkness
No weapon but his surprise
The greatest thief in the high Sahara
Enters the room where a sleeping princess lies

All your money, your pretty necklace
This is my work on such a night
There's a storm coming over the mountain
I'll be gone long before the morning

After the rain has fallen
After the tears have washed your eyes
You find that I've take nothing, that
Love can't replace in the blink of an eye

He was as gentle as the night wind
As no lover had been before
And the rings she wore for her bride groom
Slipped from her fingers and fell to the floor

Take me with you, take me with you
Before my lonely life is set
I've been promised to another
To a man I've never even met

After the rain has fallen
After the tears have washed your eyes
You'll find that I've taken nothing, that
Love can't replace in the blink of an eye
After the thunder's spoken, and
After the lightning bolt's been hurled
After the dream is broken, there'll
Still be love in the world

She said take me to another life
Take me for a pirate's wife
Take me where the wind blows
Take me where the red wine flows
Take me to the danger
Take me to the life of crime
Take me to the stars
Take me to the moon while we still have time

After the rain has fallen
After the tears have washed your eyes
You'll find that I've taken nothing, that
Love can't replace in the blink of an eye
After the thunder's spoken, and
After the lightning bolt's been hurled
After the dream has broken, there'll
Still be love in the world

All hail Bon Jovi! Hail! Now! ;D

Nothing like a song commenting on the current state of the music industry.

Come see a living, breathing spectacle,
Only seen right here,
The last chance in this lifetime,
The line forms out the rear.

You won't believe your eyes,
Your eyes'll not believe your ears,
Get your money out, get ready,
Step right up, yeah you,
Come here.

You ain't seen nothing like him,
The last one of the breed,
Better hold onto your honey,
Honeys, don't forget to breath.

Enter at your own risk mister,
This might change the way you think,
There's no dancers, there's no diamonds,
Yeah, this boy don't lipsync.

He's the last man standing,
Step right up,
He's the real thing.
The last chance of a lifetime.
To come and see, hear, feel...
The real thing.

Come see those real-life calloused fingers,
Wrapped around those guitar strings,
Kiss the lips where hurt has lingered,
Breaks your heart to hear him sing.
These songs are more than music,
They were pictures from the soul.
So keep your pseudo-punk, hiphop, J-Lo junk,
And ditch it on downloads.

He's the last man standing,
Step right up, he's the real thing,
The last chance of a lifetime.
To come and see, hear, feel...
The real thing.

Take your seats now folks, it's showtime,
Hey, Patrick, hit the lights,
There's something in the air,
There's a magic in the night.

Now here's the band that really plays,
I'll count the first one in,
I don't know where it's going,
We all know where it's been.

He's the last man standing,
Step right up, he's the real thing,
The last chance of a lifetime.
To come and see, hear, feel...

He's the last man standing,
Step right up, he's the real thing,
The last chance of a lifetime,
To come and see, hear feel...
The real thing.

The real thing...
The real thing...
It's the real thing.

*runs in then stops, panting* Puff...puff...hold on. I need to rest a second.

*Sits down on stool, pulls up microphone*

It's easier to run
Replacing this pain with something numb
It's so much easier to go
Than face all this pain here all alone

Something has been taken from deep inside of me
The secret I've kept locked away no one can ever see
Wounds so deep they never show they never go away
Like moving pictures in my head for years and years they've played

(If I could change I would take back the pain I would)
(Retrace every wrong move that I made I would)
(If I could stand up and take the blame I would)
(If I could take all the shame to the grave I would)
(If I could change I would take back the pain I would)
(Retrace every wrong move that I made I would)
(If I could stand up and take the blame I would)
(I would take all my shame to the grave)

[Chorus]
It's easier to run
Replacing this pain with something numb
It's so much easier to go
Than face all this pain here all alone

Sometimes I remember the darkness of my past
Bringing back these memories I wish I didn't have
Sometimes I think of letting go and never looking back
And never moving forward so there'd never be a past

(If I could change I would take back the pain I would)
(Retrace every wrong move that I made I would)
(If I could stand up and take the blame I would)
(If I could take all the shame to the grave I would)
(If I could change I would take back the pain I would)
(Retrace every wrong move that I made I would)
(If I could stand up and take the blame I would)
(I would take all my shame to the grave)

Just washing it aside
All of the helplessness inside
Pretending I don't feel misplaced
It's so much simpler than change

[Chorus]
It's easier to run
Replacing this pain with something numb
It's so much easier to go
Than face all this pain here all alone

It's easier to run
(If I could change I would take back the pain I would)
(Retrace every wrong move that I made)
It's easier to go
(If I could change I would take back the pain I would)
(Retrace every wrong move that I made I would)
(If I could stand up and take the blame I would)
(I would take all my shame to the grave)

Well...to take our mind off that horrible, horrible rage of A_B's...which I had nothing to do with...another song! :P

Sure I came out here to make my name
Wanted my pool, my dose of fame
Wanted my parking space at Warner's
But after a year, a one room hell
A murphy bed, a rancid smell
Wallpaper peeling at the corners

Sunset Boulevard, twisting boulevard
Secretive and rich, a little scary
Sunset Boulevard, tempting boulevard
Waiting there to swallow the unwary

Dreams are not enough to win a war
Out here they're always keeping score
Beneath the tan the battle rages
Smile a rented smile, fill someone's glass
Kiss someone's wife, kiss someone's ass
We do whatever pays the wages

Sunset Boulevard, headline boulevard
Getting here is only the beginning
Sunset Boulevard, jackpot boulevard
Once you've won you have to go on winning

You think I've sold out?
Dead right I've sold out!
I just keep waiting for the right offer
Comfortable quarters, regular rations
24-hour Five Star room service
And if I'm honest, I like the lady
I can't help being touched by her folly
I'm treading water, taking the money
Watching her sun set... Well, I'm a writer!

L.A.'s changed a lot over the years
Since those brave gold rush pioneers
Came in their creaky covered wagons
Far as they could go end of the line
Their dreams were yours, their dreams were mine
But in those dreams were hidden dragons

Sunset Boulevard, frenzied boulevard
Swamped with every kind of false emotion
Sunset Boulevard, brutal boulevard
Just like you, we'll wind up in the ocean

She was sinking fast, I threw a rope
Now I have suits and she has hope
It seemed an elegant solution
One day this must end, it isn't real
Still I'll enjoy a hearty meal
Before tomorrrow's execution

Sunset Boulevard, ruthless boulevard
Destination for the stony-hearted
Sunset Boulevard, lethal boulevard
Everyone's forgotten how they started
Here on Sunset Boulevard...!

Nothing to do with it? It was your fault! Grrr...anyhoo...

Is it any wonder
why I'm scared
If I was a little younger
would I care?

Feelin' like the walls are
growing stronger
I don't know if this cage can hold me
any longer.

You never dreamed you'd have
to live your life so
guarded.
Cus' they'll find a way to make you feel disgarded

I'm not afraid of tomorrow
I'm only scared of myself
Feels like my insides are all on fire
And I'm looking through the eyes
of someone else

Never thought they'd want
me to go any faster
Never thought I took my
foot off the gas
Everybody loves to be in
under pressure
But I know they're all
waiting for the crash

You never dreamed you'd have to
live your life so guarded
Cus they'll find a way to make you feel
disgarded
Things have changed
you've become a complication
Can't make it through another
day's humiliation.

I'm not afraid of tomorrow
I'm only scared of myself
feels like my insides are
all on fire.
And I'm lookin through the
eyes of someone else.

Someone,
Someone,
Someone else
Someone,
Someone
Someone else

Is it any wonder why
the answer keeps me
petrified?
Is it any wonder why
I'm scared?

I'm not afraid of tomorrow
I'm only scared of myself
Feels like my insides are all on fire
And I'm lookin through the eyes of
someone else

My only friend
Is the city I live inthe city of angels?
As lonely as I am, together we cry

I drive on the streets cuz
shes my companion
I walk through the hills cuz
She knows who I am
She sees my good deeds and
She kisses the wind and
I never worry
now that is a lie

I dont ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
I dont ever wanna feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way

Its hard to believe that
Theres nobody out there
Its hard to believe
That I'm all alone
At least I have heard her
The city she loves me
As lonely as I am, together we cry

I dont ever wanna feel

Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way

Particle Man, Particle Man
Doing the things a particle can
What's he like? It's not important
Particle Man

Is he a dot, or is he a speck?
When he's underwater, does he get wet?
Or does the water get him instead?
Nobody knows.
Particle Man

Triangle Man, Triangle Man
Triangle Man hates Particle Man
They have a fight, Triangle wins.
Triangle Man

Universe Man, Universe Man
Size-of-the-entire Universe Man
Usually kind to smaller man
Universe Man

He's got a watch with a minute hand,
Millenium hand and an eon hand
When they meet it's a happy land
Powerful man, Universe Man

Person Man, Person Man
Hit on the head with a frying pan
Lives his life in a garbage can
Person Man

Is he depressed or is he a mess?
Does he feel totally worthless?
Who came up with Person Man?
Degraded Man, Person Man

Triangle Man, Triangle Man
Triangle Man hates Person Man
They have a fight
Triangle wins
Triangle Man

Hm... what song to post...


If you would just come back to me
I would be so good
Put your trust back in me
The least I think you should
We'll call it my pathology
So I misunderstood
A bit selfish I should be
If I could change I would
See it on my face

All I wanted was a friend
To look in me to comprehend
All I wanted was to fly
How could you sit and watch me die
All I wanted was you there
Your cruelty was my despair
You just killed me so the story goes

Once upon a time, there was a girl
Who loved me more than life itself
By the duck pond, she said
Carved our names into the bark
We climbed the tree
I slipped and fell behind
Now I'm sorry

If you would just come back to me
I would be so good
Put your trust back in me
The least I think you should
We'll call it my pathology
So I misunderstood
A bit selfish I should be
If I could change I would
See it on my face
See it on my face

All reminds me of your name
We sought fortune through the rain
Every day and every place
Everywhere I kissed your face
All the sacrifice in vain
How could you put all the blame upon me
That's not fair so the story goes

Once upon a time
We had the moon, we had the stars, we were divine
Upon my shoulder, she cried
Now she hides the faith, she fears, she throws herself
Before her bed of lies
She'll be sorry

If you would just come back to me
I would be so good
Put your trust back in me
The least I think you should
We'll call it my pathology
So I misunderstood
A bit selfish I should be
If I could change I would
See it on my face

If you would just come back to me
I would be so good
Put your trust back in me
The least I think you should
We'll call it my pathology
So I misunderstood
A bit selfish I should be
If I could change I would
If you would just come back to me

If you would just come back to me, oh...
If you would just come back to me
I see it on my face ...
It's alright
It's alright
It's alright.

Your cruel device

One look, could kill
My pain, your thrill...

I wanna love you but I better not touch (don’t touch)
I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop
I wanna kiss you but I want it too much (too much)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You’re poison, running through my veins
Poison
I don’t wanna play these games

Your mouth, so hot
Your web, I’m caught
Your skin, so wet
Black lace, on sweat....

I hear you calling and it’s needles and pins (and pins)
I wanna hurt you just to hear you screaming my name
Don’t wanna touch you but you’re under my skin (deep in)
I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You’re poison, running through my veins
Poison
I don’t wanna break these chains
Poison...

One look, could kill

I wanna love you but I better not touch (don’t touch)

I wanna taste you but your lips are venomous poison
You’re poison, running through my veins
Poison
I don’t wanna break these chains

I wanna love you but I better not touch (don’t touch)

Minutes later the peroxide blond vampire is back and singing

Saying I love you
is not the words I want to hear from you
it's not that I want you
not to say, but if you only knew
how easy it would be to show me how you feel
more than words is all you have to do to make it real
then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
cuz I'd already know

what would you do if my heart was torn in two
more than words to show you feel
that your love for me is real
what would you say if I took those words away
then you couldn't make things new
just by saying I love you

more than words

now I've tried to talk to you and make you understand
all you have to do is close your eyes
and just reach out your hands and touch me
hold me close don't ever let me go
more than words is all I ever needed you to show
then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
cuz I'd already know

what would you do if my heart was torn in two
more than words to show you feel
that your love for me is real
what would you say if I took those words away
then you couldn't make things new
just by saying I love you

more than words

*Sung quietly from the table in the back*

The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
Of the big lake they called 'Gitche Gumee'
The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead
When the skies of November turn gloomy
With a load of iron ore twenty-six thousand tons more
Than the Edmund Fitzgerald weighed empty.
That good ship and crew was a bone to be chewed
When the gales of November came early.

The ship was the pride of the American side
Coming back from some mill in Wisconsin
As the big freighters go, it was bigger than most
With a crew and good captain well seasoned
Concluding some terms with a couple of steel firms
When they left fully loaded for Cleveland
And later that night when the ship's bell rang
Could it be the north wind they'd been feelin'?

The wind in the wires made a tattle-tale sound
And a wave broke over the railing
And every man knew, as the captain did too,
T'was the witch of November come stealin'.
The dawn came late and the breakfast had to wait
When the Gales of November came slashin'.
When afternoon came it was freezin' rain
In the face of a hurricane west wind.

When suppertime came, the old cook came on deck sayin'.
Fellas, it's too rough to feed ya.
At Seven P.M. a main hatchway caved in, he said
Fellas, it's been good t'know ya
The captain wired in he had water comin' in
And the good ship and crew was in peril.
And later that night when his lights went outta sight
Came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.

Does any one know where the love of God goes
When the waves turn the minutes to hours?
The searches all say they'd have made Whitefish Bay
If they'd put fifteen more miles behind her.
They might have split up or they might have capsized;
May have broke deep and took water.
And all that remains is the faces and the names
Of the wives and the sons and the daughters.

Lake Huron rolls, Superior sings
In the rooms of her ice-water mansion.
Old Michigan steams like a young man's dreams;
The islands and bays are for sportsmen.
And farther below Lake Ontario
Takes in what Lake Erie can send her,
And the iron boats go as the mariners all know
With the Gales of November remembered.

In a musty old hall in Detroit they prayed,
In the Maritime Sailors' Cathedral.
The church bell chimed till it rang twenty-nine times
For each man on the Edmund Fitzgerald.
The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
Of the big lake they call 'Gitche Gumee'.
Superior, they said, never gives up her dead
When the gales of November come early!

*The light on stage darkens somewhat as he begins the song*

I died, so many years ago.
But you can make me feel like it isn't so.
And why you come to be with me, I think I finally know. Mmmmmm.

You're scared, ashamed of what you feel.
And you can't tell the ones you love, you know they couldn't deal.
A whisper in a dead man's ear, that doesn't make it real.

That's great, but I don't wanna play.
Cuz bein' with you touches me, more than I can say.
And since I'm only dead to you, I'm sayin' stay away.
And let me rest in peace.

Let me rest in peace! Let me get some sleep!
Let me take my love and bury it in a hole six foot deep!
I can lay my body down but I can't find my sweet release!

So let me rest in peace!

You know, you got a willin' slave.
And you just love to play the thought that you might misbehave.
But 'til you do, I'm tellin' you
Stop visitin' my grave!
And let me rest in peace!

I know I should go.
But I follow you like a man possessed.
There's a traitor here beneath my breast,
And it hurts me more than you've ever guessed.
If my heart could beat it would break my chest.
But I can see you're unimpressed.
So leave me be,

And let me rest in peace! Let me get some sleep!
Let me take my love and bury it in a hole six foot deep!
I can lay my body down but I can't find my sweet release!
Let me rest in peace!

Why won't you let me rest in peace!

Adia I do believe I failed you
Adia I know I let you down
don't you know I tried so hard
to love you in my way
it's easy let it go...

Adia I'm empty since you left me
trying to find a way to carry on
I search myself and everyone
to see where we went wrong

'cause there's no one left to finger
there's no one here to blame
there's no one left to talk to honey
and there ain't no one to buy our innocence
'cause we are born innocent
believe me Adia, we are still innocent
it's easy, we all falter
does it matter?

Adia I thought we could make it
but I know I can't change the way you feel
I leave you with your misery
a friend who won't betray
I pull you from your tower
I take away your pain
and show you all the beauty you possess
if you'd only let yourself believe that

we are born innocent
believe me Adia, we are still innocent
it's easy, we all falter, does it matter?

*Rips another song for the hell of it and because he loves it really*

I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
I don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure, of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)


I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
I've become so tired, so much more aware
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

Can't you see that you're smothering me?
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control
'Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart, right in front of you
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
An' every second I waste is more than I can take

I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
I've become so tired, so much more aware
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me
With someone disappointed in you

I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
I've become so tired, so much more aware
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

I've
Become so numb
I can't feel you there
I'm tired of being what you want me to be
I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
I'm tired of being what you want me to be

You know that only time can tell

what is it in me that refuses to believe
this isn't easier than the real thing.

My love
you know that you're my best friend.
You know that I'd do anything for you
and my love
let nothing come between us
my love for you is strong and true.

Am I in heaven here or
am I...
At the crossroads I am standing.

So now you're sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray
that you'll be strong tomorrow
and will see another day
and we will praise it
and love the light that brings a smile
across your face.

Oh god
if you're out there won't you hear me.
I know we're never talked before

and oh god
the man I love is leaving
won't you take him when he comes to your door.

Am I in heaven here or
am I in hell
at the crossroads I am standing.

So now you're sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray
that you'll be strong tomorrow

Amen. Dark corners are good...

To every broken heart in here
Love was once a part, but now it's disappeared
She told me that it's all part of the choices that you make
Even when you think you're right
You have to give to take

But there's still tomorrow
Forget the sorrow
And I can be on the last train home
Watch it pass the day
As it fades away
No more time to care
No more time, today

But we sing
If we're going nowhere
Yeah we sing
If it's not enough
And we sing
Sing without a reason
To ever fall in love

I wonder if you're listening
Picking up on the signals
Sent back from within
Sometimes it feels like I don't really know whats going on
Time and time again it seems like everything is wrong in here

But there's still tomorrow
Forget the sorrow
And I can be on the last train home
Watch it pass the day
As it fades away
No more time to care
No more time, today

But we sing
If we're going nowhere
Yeah we sing
If it's not enough
And we sing
Sing without a reason
To ever fall in love

Well we sing if we're going nowhere
Yeah we sing if it's not enough
And we sing
Sing without a reason to ever fall in love

But we sing
If we're going no where
Yeah we sing
If it's not enough
And we sing
Sing with out a reason to never fall in love
To never fall in love again

Welcome to your life
There’s no turning back
Even while we sleep
We will find you
Acting on your best behaviour
Turn your back on mother nature
Everybody wants to rule the world

It’s my own design
It’s my own remorse
Help me to decide
Help me make the most
Of freedom and of pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world

There’s a room where the light won’t find you
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
When they do I’ll be right behind you

So glad we’ve almost made it
So sad they had to fade it
Everybody wants to rule the world

I can’t stand this indecision
Married with a lack of vision
Everybody wants to rule the world
Say that you’ll never never never never need it
One headline why believe it?
Everybody wants to rule the world

All for freedom and for pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world

"I read the news today, oh boy,
About a lucky man who made the grade.
And though the news was rather sad,
Well, I just had to laugh.

I saw the photograph,
He blew his mind out in a car,
He didn't notice that the lights had changed.
A crowd of people stood and stared.

They'd seen his face before.
Nobody was really sure if he was from the House of Lords.

I saw a film today, oh boy.
The English army had just won the war.
A crowd of people turned away.
But I just had look, having read the book.

I'd love to turn you on...

Woke up,
Fell out of bed,
Dragged a comb across my head.

Found my way downstairs and drank a cup,
And looking up, I noticed I was late.
Found my coat, and grabbed my hat,
Made the bus in seconds flat.

Found my way upstairs and had a smoke,
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream.

I read the news today, oh boy,
Four thousand holes in Blackbird Lankyshire,
And though the holes were rather small,
They had to count them all.

Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall...

I'd love to turn you on..."

slowly she opens the door
check that he is sleeping
pick up all the broken glass
and furniture on the floor
been up half the night screaming
now it's time to get away
pack up the kids in the car
another bruise to try and hide
another alibi to write
another ditch in the road
you keep moving
another stop sign
you keep moving on
and the years go by so fast
wonder how I ever made it through

and there are children to think of
baby's asleep in the back seat
wonder how they'll ever make it
through this living nightmare
but the mind is an amazing thing
full of candy dreams and new toys
and another cheap hotel
two beds and a coffee machine
but there are groceries to buy
and she knows she'll have to go home

another ditch in the road
you keep moving
another stop sign
you keep moving on
and the years go by so fast
wonder how I ever made it through

another bruise to try and hide
another alibi to write
another lonely highway in the black of night
there's hope in the darkness
I know you're gonna make it

another ditch in the road
keep moving
another stop sign
you keep moving on
and the years go by so fast
silent fortress built to last
wonder how I ever made it

Off throught the new day's mist I run
Out form the new day's mist I have come

Roaming the land while you sleep

Shape shift Nose ot the wind

Bright is the moon high in starlight
Chill in the air cold as steel tonight

And hide out in the cellar
By now the fighting will be close at hand
Don't believe the church and state
And everything they tell you
Believe in me, I'm with the high command

Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?

There's a gun and ammunition
Just inside the doorway
Use it only in emergency
Better you should pray to God
The Father and the Spirit
Will guide you and protect from up here

Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?

Swear allegiance to the flag
Whatever flag they offer
Never hint at what you really feel
Teach the children quietly
For some day sons and daughters
Will rise up and fight while we stood still

Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?

You're not ready for the world outside.
You keep pretending, but you just can't hide.
I know I said that I'd be standing by your side,
But I...

Your path's unbeaten, and it's all uphill.
And you can meet it, but you never will.
And I'm the reason that you're standing still.
But I...

I wish I could say the right words to lead you through this land,
Wish I could play the father, and take you by the hand.
Wish I could stay, but now I understand,
I'm standing in the way.

The cries around you, you don't hear at all.
Cuz you know I'm here to take the call.
So you just lie there when you should be standing tall.
But I...

I wish I could lay your arms down, and let you rest at last.
Wish I could slay your demons, but now that time has passed.
Wish I could stay, your stalwart standing-fast,
But I'm standing in the way.
I'm just standing in the way.

And quickly he's subdued
Through constant pained disgrace
The young boy learns their rule

With time the child draws in
This whipping boy done wrong
Deprived of all his thoughts
The young man struggles on and on he's known
A vow unto his own
That never from this day
His will they'll take away

What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never be
Never see
Won't see what might have been

Never shined through in what I've shown
Never free

So I dub thee unforgiven

They dedicate their lives
To running all of his
He tried to please them
This bitter man he is
Throughout his life the same
He's battled constantly
This fight he cannot win
A tired man they see no longer cares
The old man then prepares
To die regretfully
That old man here is me

What I've felt

Never shined through in what I've shown

I never would have opened up, but you seemed so real to me
And after all the bullshit I've heard, refreshing not to see
That I don't have to pretend, she doesn't expect it from me

So don't tell me I haven't been good to you
Don't tell me I have never been there for you
Just tell me why nothing is good enough

Hey, little girl, would you like some candy, your momma said it's OK
The door is open, come on outside, "no, I can't come out today"
It's not the wind that cracked your shoulder and threw you to the ground
Who's there that makes you so afraid you're shaken to the bone
And no, I don't understand, you deserve so much more than this

So don't tell me why he's never been good to you
Don't tell me why he's never been there for you
Don't you know that why is simply not good enough

Oh, so just let me try, I will be good to you
Just let me try, and I will be there for you
I'll show you why you're so much more than good enough

Just let me try, and I will be there for you
I'll show you why you're so much more than
Good enough

Sad but true

You know it's sad but true

You
You're my mask
You're my cover, my shelter
You
You're my mask
You're the one who's blamed
Do

Do my dirty work, scapegoat
Do
Do my deeds
For you're the one who's shamed

I'm your eyes.......When you must steal
I'm your pain........When you can't feel
Sad but true

And I no longer care

I'm your dream, make you real

Sad but true

I'm your truth, telling lies

Looks sombre as he closes his eyes and sings almost as if he was alone in the room, blocking out everyone else

So close no matter how far
couldn't be much more from the heart
forever trusting who we are
and nothing else matters

never opened myself this way
life is ours, we live it our way
all these words I don't just say
and nothing else matters

trust I seek and I find in you
every day for us something new
open mind for a different view
and nothing else matters

never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
but I know

so close no matter how far
couldn't be much more from the heart
forever trusting who we are
and nothing else matters

never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
but I know

never opened myself this way
life is ours, we live it our way
all these words I don't just say
and nothing else matters

trust I seek and I find in you
every day for us something new
open mind for a different view
and nothing else matters

never cared for what they say
never cared for games they play
never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
and I know

so close no matter how far
couldn't be much more from the heart
forever trusting who we are

You just stood there screaming
Fearing no one was listening to you
They say the empty can rattles the most
The sound of your own voice must soothe you
Hearing only what yu want to hear
And knowing only what you've heard

Misery
You insist that the weight of the world
Should be on your shoulders
Misery
There's much more to life than what you see
My friend misery

You still stood there screaming
No one caring about these words you tell
My friend before your voice is gone
Mone man's fun is another's hell
These times are sent to try men's souls
But something's wrong with all you see
You........you'll take it on all yourself
Remember, misery loves company

Misery
You insist that the weight of the world
Should be on your shoulders
Misery
There's much more to life than what you see
My friend misery

You just stood there creaming
My friend misery

I would like to put up the lyrics to (in my opinion) one of the greatest songs of all time coupled with Annie Lennox's amazing voice it is a masterpiece

Lay down
Your sweet and weary head
The night is falling
You have come to journey's end
Sleep now
And dream of the ones who came before
They are calling
From across the distant shore

Why do you weep?
What are these tears upon your face?
Soon you will see
All of your fears will pass away
Safe in my arms
You're only sleeping

What can you see
On the horizon?
Why do the white gulls call?
Across the sea
A pale moon rises
The ships have come to carry you home

And all will turn
To silver glass
A light on the water
All Souls pass

Hope fades
Into the world of night
Through shadows falling
Out of memory and time
Don't say
We have come now to the end
White shores are calling
You and I will meet again
And you'll be here in my arms
Just sleeping

Chorus

And all will turn
To silver glass
A light on the water
Grey ships pass
Into the West

The wind was a torrent of darkness among the gusty trees
The moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon the cloudy seas
The road was a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor
And the highwayman came riding,
Riding, riding,
The highwayman came riding, up to the old inn-door

He'd a french cocked hat on his forehead, a bunch of lace at his chin
A coat of claret velvet, and breeches of brown doe-skin
They fitted with never a wrinkle; his boots were up to the thigh!
And he rode with a jewelled twinkle,
His pistol butts a-twinkle,
His rapier hilt a-twinkle, under the jewelled sky

Over the cobbles he clattered and clashed in the dark inn-yard
And he tapped with his whip on the shutters, but all was locked and
barred;
He whistled a tune to the window, and who should be waiting there
But the landlord's blackeyed daughter,
Bess, the landlord's daughter
Plaiting a dark red love-knot into her long black hair

"One kiss, my bonny sweetheart, I'm after a prize tonight,
But I shall be back with the yellow gold before the morning light;
Yet if they press me sharply, and harry me through the day,
Then look for me by the moonlight,
Watch for me by the moonlight,
I'll come to thee by the moonlight, though hell should bar the way"

He rose upright in the stirrups; he scarce could reach her hand
But she loosened her hair I' the casement! His face burnt like a brand
As the black cascade of perfume came tumbling over his breast; and he
kissed its
Waves in the moonlight, (oh, sweet black waves in the moonlight!)
The he tugged at his rein in the moonlight,
And galloped away to the west

He did not come at the dawning; he did not come at noon,
And out o' the tawny sunset, before the rise o' the moon,
When the road was a gypsy's ribbon, looping the purple moor,
A red-coat troop came marching,
Marching, marching
King George's men came marching, up to the old inn-door

The said no word to the landlord, the drank his ale instead,
But they gagged his daughter and bound her to the foot of her narrow
bed;
Two of them knelt at the casement, with muskets at their side!
There was death at every windows,
And hell at one dark window;
For bess could see, through the casement, the road that he would ride

They had tied her up to attention, with many a sblack personing jest;
They had bound a musket beside her, with the barrel beneath her breast!
"Now keep good watch!" And they kissed her
She heard the dead man say
Look for me by the moonlight
Watch for me by the moonlight
I'll come to thee by the moonlight, though hell should bar the way!

She twisted her hands behind her, but all the knots held good!
She writhed her hands till her fingers were wet with sweat of blood!
They stretched and strained in the darkness and the hours crawled by
like years!
Till, now, on the stroke of midnight,
Cold, on the stroke of midnight,
The tip of one finger touched it!
The trigger at least was hers!

Tlot-tlot! Had they heard it? The horse-hoofs were ringing clear
Tlot-tlot, in the distance!
Were they deaf that they did not hear?
Down the ribbon of moonlight, over the brow of the hill
The highwayman came riding,
Riding, riding!
The red-coats looked to their priming!She stood up straight and still!

Tlot, in the frosty silence! Tlot, in the echoing night!
Nearer he came and nearer! Her face was like a light!
Her eyes grew wide for a moment!
She drew one last deep breath,
Then her finger moved in the moonlight,
Her musket shattered the moolight,
Shattered her breast in the moonlight and warned him with her death!

He turned; he spurred to the west; he did not know she stood
Bowed, with her head o'er the musket, drenched with her
Own red blood! Not till the dawn he heard it; his face grew grey to hear
How bess, the landlord's daughter,
The landlord's black-eyed daughter,
Had watched for her love in the moonlight, and died in the darkness
there

Back,he spurred like a madman, shrieking a curse to the sky
With the white road smoking behind him and his rapier
Brandished high! - blood-red were the spurs I' the golden noon;
Wine-red was his velvet coat,
When they shot him down on the highway,
Down like a dog on the highway,
And he lay in his blood on the highway, with the bunch of lace at his
throat.

Still of a winter's night, they say, when the wind is in the trees,
When the moon is a ghostly galleon, tossed upon the cloudy seas,
When the road is a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor
A highwayman comes riding,
Riding, riding,
A highwayman comes riding, up to the old inn-door.

When this began
I had nothing to say
And I get lost in the nothingness
Inside of me
I was confused
And I let it all out to find
That I’m not the only person
With these things in mind
Inside of me
But all the vacancy
The words revealed
Is the only real thing that
I’ve got left to feel
Nothing to lose
Just stuck, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own
And the fault is my own


I wanna heal
I wanna feel what
I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain
I’ve felt so long
Erase all the pain till it’s gone
I wanna heal
I wanna feel like I’m
Close to something real
I wanna find something
I’ve wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

And I’ve got nothing to say
I can’t believe
I didn’t fall right down
On my face
I was confused
Looking everywhere only to find
That it’s not the way I had imagined it
All in my mind
So what am I
What do I have but negativity
Cause I can’t justify the way
Everyone is looking at me
Nothing to lose
Nothing to gain, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own
And the fault is my own

I wanna heal
I wanna feel what
I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain
I’ve felt so long
Erase all the pain till it’s gone
I wanna heal
I wanna feel like I’m
Close to something real
I wanna find something
I’ve wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

I will never know myself
Until I do this on my own
And I will never feel anything else
Until my wounds are healed
I will never be anything till
I break away from me
I will break away
I'll find myself today

I wanna heal
I wanna feel what
I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain
I’ve felt so long
Erase all the pain till it’s gone
I wanna heal
I wanna feel like I’m
Close to something real
I wanna find something
I’ve wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

I wanna heal
I wanna feel like
I’m somewhere I belong
I wanna heal
I wanna feel like
I’m somewhere I belong

When I pretend
Everything is what I want it to be
I look exactly like what you had always
Wanted to see
When I pretend
I can forget about the criminal I am
Stealing second after second just 'cause
I know I can/But
I can't pretend this is the way
It will stay/I'm just
Trying to bend the truth
I can't pretend I'm who you want me to be
So I'm

Lying my way from you

[No/No turning back now]
I wanna be pushed aside
So let me go
[No/No turning back now]
Let me take back my life
I'd rather be all alone
[No turning back now]
Anywhere on my own
'Cause I can see
[No/No turning back now]
The very worst part of you
Is me

I remember what they taugt to me
Remember condescending talk
Of who I ought to be
Remember listening to all of that
And this again
So I pretended up a person who was fitting in
And now you think this person
Really is me and I'm
[Trying to bend the truth]
But the more I push
The more I'm pulling away
'Cause I'm

Lying my way from you

This isn't what I wanted to be
I never thought that what I said
Would have you running from me
Like this

The very worst part of you

Like opening the wound
I'm picking me apart again
You all assume
I'm safe here in my room
Unless I try to start again

I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
Cuz inside I realize
That I'm the one confused

I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I know it's not alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight

Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more
Than anytime before
I have no options left again

I know, I know I've let you down
I've been a fool to myself
I thought that I could
live for no one else
But now through all the hurt & pain
It's time for me to respect
the ones you love
mean more than anything
So with sadness in my heart
(I) feel the best thing I could do
is end it all
and leave forever
what's done is done it feels so bad
what once was happy now is sad
I'll never love again
my world is ending

I wish that I could turn back time
cos now the guilt is all mine
can't live without
the trust from those you love
I know we can't forget the past
you can't forget love & pride
because of that, it's killing me inside

It all returns to nothing, it all comes
tumbling down. tumbling down.
tumbling down
It all returns to nothing, I just keep
letting me down, letting me down,
letting me down
In my heart of hearts
I know that I could never love again
I've lost everything
everything
everything that matters to me,
matters in this world

I wish that I could turn back time
cos now the guilt is all mine
can't live without
the trust from those you love
I know we can't forget the past
you can't forget love & pride

It all returns to nothing, it all comes
tumbling down. tumbling down.

It all returns to nothing, I just keep
letting me down, letting me down,

In a soft slow voice, adam_bat sings.


I hurt myself today.
To see if I still feel.
I focus on the pain,
the only thing that's real.

The needle tears a hole.
The old familiar sting
try to kill it all away
But I remember
Everything

What have I become?
My sweetest friend.
Everyone I know,
goes away
in the end.

And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I would let you down
I would make you hurt.

I wear this crown of thorns.
Upon my liars chair
Full of broken thoughts
I can not repair.

Beneath the stains of time
the feeling disappears.
You are someone else
I am still right here.

What have I become?
My sweetest friend.
Everyone I know
Goes away,
in the end

And you could have it all
my empire of dirt.
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep my self
I would find...
a way.

It's easier to run, replacing this pain with something good
It's so much easier to go than face all this pain here all alone

Something has been taken from deep inside of me
A secret I've got locked away, no one can ever see
Wounds so deep they never show, they never go away
Like moving pictures in my head, for years and years they've played...

If I could change, I would, Take back the pain, I would
Retrace every wrong move that I made, I would
If I could stand up and take the blame, I would
If I could take all the shame to the grave, I would
If I could change, I would, Take back the pain, I would
Retrace every wrong move that I made, I would
If I could stand up and take the blame, I would
If I could take all the shame to the grave...

It's easier to run, replacing this pain with something good
It's so much easier to go than face all this pain here all alone

Sometimes I remember the darkness of my past
Bringing back these memories I wish I didn't have
Sometimes I think of letting go and never looking back
And never moving forward so there'd never be a path...

If I could change, I would, Take back the pain, I would
Retrace every wrong move that I made, I would
If I could stand up and take the blame, I would
If I could take all the shame to the grave, I would
If I could change, I would, Take back the pain, I would
Retrace every wrong move that I made, I would
If I could stand up and take the blame, I would
If I could take all the shame to the grave...

Just washing it aside, all of our nervousness inside
Pretending I don't feel this place is so much simpler than change...

It's easier to run, replacing this pain with something good
It's so much easier to go than face all this pain here all alone
It's easier to run...
If I could change, I would
Take back the pain, I would
Retrace every wrong move that I made...

Re: Kareoke Bar!!
Post by steahl on Apr 9, 2004, 11:58pm

*stands up leaving empty glass at table*

Deep into the stony hills
Miles from town or hold
A troop of guards comes riding
With a lady and her gold
She rides bemused among them
Shrouded in her cloak of fur
Companioned by a maiden
And a toothless sated cur

Three things see not end
A flower blighted ere it bloom
A message that miscarries
And a journey that is doomed

One among the guardsmen
Has a shifting restless eye
And as they ride he scans the hills
That rise against the skies
He wears both sword and jewels
Worth more than he could afford
And hidden in his baggage
Is a heavy secret horde

Of three things be wary of
A feather on a cat
The shepherd eating mutton
And the guardsman that is fat

Little does the lady care
What all the guardsmen know
That bandits ambush caravans
That on these trade roads go
In spite of tricks and clever traps
And all that men can do
The brigands seem to always sense
Which trains are false or true

Three things are most perilous
The shape that walks behind
The ice that will not hold you
And the spy you cannot find

From ambush bandits screaming
Charge the pack train and its prize
And all but four within the trade
Are taken by surprise
And all but four are cut down
As a woodsman fells a log
The guardsmen and the lady
And the maiden and the dog

Three things hold a secret
Lady riding in a dream
The dog that sounds no warning
And the maiden who does not scream

Then off the lady pulls her cloak
And armor she is clad
Her sword is out and ready and
Her eyes are fierce and glad
The maiden makes a gesture and
The dog's a cur no more
A wolf, sword maid, and sorceress
Now face the bandit horde

Three things never anger
Or you will not live for long
A wolf with cubs
A man with power
And a women's sense of wrong

The lady and her sister
By a single trader lone
Were hired out to try to lay
A trap all of their own
And no one knew their plan except
The two who rode that day
For what you do not know
You cannot ever give away

Three things is its better part
That only two should know
For treasure hides who shares your bed
And how to catch your foe

The bandits growl a challenge
And the lady only grins
The sorceress bows mockingly
And then the fight begins
When it ends there's only four
Left standing from the horde
The witch, the wolf, the traitor
And the woman with the sword

Three things never trust in
A maiden sworn as pure
The vows a king has given
And the ambush that is "sure"

They strip the traitor naked
And then whip him on his way
Unto the barren hill sides like
The folk he used to slay
And what of all the maidens
That this bandit raped and slew
So as revenge the sorceress
Makes him a woman too

Three things trust above all else
The horse on which you ride
The beast that guards your sleeping
And your shield mate at your side

I could stay awake,
Just to hear you breathing,
Watch you smile while you are sleeping,
While you're far away a'dreaming.

I could spend my life,
In this sweet surrender,
I could stay lost in this moment,
Forever.

Every moment spent with you,
Is a moment I treasure.

I don't wanna close my eyes,
I don't wanna fall asleep,
'Cause I'd miss you baby,
And I don't wanna miss a thing.

'Cause even when I dream of you,
The sweetest dream will never do,
I'd still miss you, baby,
And I don't wanna miss a thing.

Lying close to you,
Feeling your heart beating,
And I'm wondering what you're dreaming,
Wondering if it's me you're seeing.

And then I kiss your eyes,
And thank God we're together,
I just wanna stay with you,
In this moment forever.
Forever and ever.

I don't wanna close my eyes,
I don't wanna fall asleep,
'Cause I'd miss you baby,
And I don't wanna miss a thing.

'Cause even when I dream of you,
The sweetest dream will never do,
I'd still miss you, baby,
And I don't wanna miss a thing.

I don't wanna miss one smile.
I don't wanna miss one kiss.
I just wanna be with you,
Right here with you,
Just like this.

I wjust wanna hold you close,
Feel your heart so close to mine,
And just stay here in this moment,
For all the rest of time.

I don't wanna close my eyes,
I don't wanna fall asleep,
'Cause I'd miss you baby,
And I don't wanna miss a thing.

'Cause even when I dream of you,
The sweetest dream will never do,
I'd still miss you, baby,
And I don't wanna miss a thing.

Big John
Big John

Every morning at the mine you could see him arrive
He stood six-foot-six and weighed two-forty-five
Kinda broad at the shoulder and narrow at the hip
Everybody knew you didn't give no lip to Big John

Big John
Big John
Big Bad John
Big John

Nobody seemed to know where John called home
He just drifted into town and stayed all alone
He didn't say much, kinda quiet and shy
If ya spoke at all, ya just said hi to Big John

Somebody said he came from New Orleans
Where he got in a fight o'er a cajun queen
And a crashin' blow from a huge right hand
Sent a Lousianna fella to the promised land, Big John

Big John
Big John
Big Bad John
Big John

Then came the day at the bottom of the mine
When a timber cracked and men started cryin'
Miners were prayin' and hearts beat fast
And everybody thought they'd breathed their last, 'cept John

Through the dust and the smoke of this man-made hell
Walked a giant of a man that the miners knew well
Grabbed the saggin' timber and gave out with a groan
And like a giant oak tree, just stood there alone, Big John

Big John
Big John
Big Bad John
Big John

And with all of his strength he gave a mighty shove
Then a miner yelled out, there's a light up above
And twenty men scrambled from a would-be grave
now there's only one left down there to save, Big John

With jacks and timbers they started back down
Then came that rumble way down in the ground
As smoke and gas belched outta the mine
Everybody knew it was the end of the line for Big John

Big John
Big John
Big Bad John
Big John

Now, they never re-opened that worthless pit
They just placed a marble stand in front of it
These few words are written on that stand,

At the bottom of this mine lies one Hell of a man, Big John

Big John
Big John
Big Bad John
Big John
Big John
Big Bad John

Boredom strikes again...

Fat and docile, big and dumb
They look so stupid, they aren't much fun

Cows aren't fun

They eat to grow, grow to die
Die to be et at the hamburger fry

Cows well done

Nobody thunk it, nobody knew
No one imagined the great cow guru

Cows are one

He hid in the forest, read books with great zeal
He loved Che Guevera, a revolutionary veal

Cow Se Tongue

He spoke about justice, but nobody stirred
He felt like an outcast, alone in the herd

Cow doldrums

He mooed we must fight, escape or we'll die
Cows gathered around, cause the steaks were so high

Bad cow pun

But then he was captured, stuffed into a crate
Loaded onto a truck, where he rode to his fate

Cows are bummed

He was a scrawny calf, who looked rather woozy
No one suspected he was packing an Uzi

Cows with guns

They came with a needle to stick in his thigh
He kicked for the groin, he pissed in their eye

Cow well hung

Knocked over a tractor and ran for the door
Six gallons of gas flowed out on the floor

Run cows run!

He picked up a bullhorn and jumped up on the hay
We are free roving bovines, we run free today

We will fight for bovine freedom
And hold our large heads high
We will run free with the Buffalo, or die

Cows with guns

They crashed the gate in a great stampede
Tipped over a milk truck, torched all the feed

Cows have fun

Sixty police cars were piled in a heap
Covered in cow pies, covered up deep

Much cow dung

Black smoke rising, darkening the day
Twelve burning McDonalds, have it your way
The President said "enough is enough
These uppity cattle, its time to get tough"

Cow dung flung

The newspapers gloated, folks sighed with relief
Tomorrow at noon, they would all be ground beef

Cows on buns

The cows were surrounded, they waited and prayed
They mooed their last moos, they chewed their last hay

Cows outgunned

The order was given to turn cows to whoppers
Enforced by the might of ten thousand coppers
But on the horizon surrounding the shoppers
Came the deafening roar of chickens in choppers

Longingly, sadly...

He spends his nights in
California
Watching the stars on the big
screen

And then he lies awake and
he wonders.
Why can't that be me?

Cus in his life he's full of
all these good intentions.
He's left a lot of things
he'd rather not mention
right now

Just before he says goodnight
He looks up with a little
smile at me and he says

If I could be like that
I would give anything
Just to live one day
in those shoes.

If I could be like that
what would I do?
What would I do?

Yeah.

Now in dreams
we run.

She spends her days up
in the Northguard.
Watching the people
as they pass.

And all she wants is just
a little piece of these
dreams.

Is that too much to ask?

With a safe home
And a warm bed
on a quiet little street.

All she wants is just
that something to hold onto
That's all she needs

If I could be like that
I would give anything
just to live one day
in those shoes

If I could be like that
What would I do?
What would I do?

Yeah, yeah yeah. Oh oh...yeah

Fallin into this
in dreams
We run away.

If I could be like that.
I would give anything
Just to live one day
In those shoes

If I could be like that
What would I do?
What would I do?

If I could be like that
I would give anything
just to live one day
in those shoes

If I could be like that
What would I do?
What would I do?

If I could be like that
I would give anything
just to live one day
in those shoes

If I could be like that
What would I do, Lord?
What would I do?

Yeah, Yeah

Far and near
I feel long
Far and near.
To this...again.

Listen up brothers and sisters, come hear my desperate tale
I speak of our friends of nature, trapped in the dirt like a jail!
Vegetables live in oppresion, served on our tables each night!
The killing of veggies is madness, I say we take up the fight!
Salads are only for murderers, cole slaw's a fascist regime!
Don't think that they don't have feelings, just cuz a radish can't scream!

I've heard the screams of the vegetables (scream scream scream)
Watching their skins being peeled (Having their insides
revealed)
Grated and steamed with no mercy (burning off calories)
How do you think that feels (bet it hurts really bad)
Carrot Juice constitutes murder (and that's a real crime)
Greenhouses prisons for slaves (let my vegetables grow)
It's time to stop all this gardening (it's as dirty as hell)
Let's call a spade a spade (is a spade is a spade...)

I saw a man eating celery, so I beat him black and blue.
If he ever touches a sprout again, I'll bite him clean in two
I'm a political prisoner trapped in a windowless cage
Cuz I stopped the slaughter of turnips by killing three men in a rage
I told the judge when he sentenced me, this is my finest hour!
I'd kill those farmers again just to save one more cauliflower!

I've heard the screams of the vegetables (scream scream scream)
Watching their skins being peeled (Having their insides
revealed)
Grated and steamed with no mercy (burning off calories)
How do you think that feels (bet it hurts really bad)
Carrot Juice constitutes murder (and that's a real crime)
Greenhouses prisons for slaves (let my vegetables grow)
It's time to stop all this gardening (it's as dirty as hell)
Let's call a spade a spade (is a spade is a spade...)

How low as people do we dare to stoop
Making young broccoli's bleed in the soup?
Untie your beans, uncage your tomatoes, let potted plants free Don't mash that potatoe!

I've heard the screams of the vegetables (scream scream scream)
Watching their skins being peeled (fates in the stir fry are sealed)
Grated and steamed with no mercy (you fat gourmet slob)
How do you think that feels (leave them out in the fields)
Carrot Juice constitutes murder (V8's genocide)
Greenhouses prisons for slaves (yes your compost's a grave)
It's time to stop all this gardening (take up macram_)
Let's call a spade a spade (is a spade is a spade...)

Must be your skin that I'm sinking in
Must be for real cos now I can feel

And I didn't mind
It's not my kind
Not my time to wonder why

Everything's gone white
And everything's grey

Now you're here now you're away

I don't want this
Remember that

I'll never forget where you're at

Don't let the days go by
Glycerine

Don't let the days go by
Glycerine

I'm never alone
I'm alone all the time

Are you at one
Or do you lie

We live in a wheel
Where everyone steals
But when we rise
it's like strawberry fields

I treated you bad
You bruise my face
Couldn't love you more
You got a beautiful taste

Don't let the days go by

Could have been easier on you
I couldn't change though I wanted to

Could have been easier by three
Our old friend fear and you and me

Glycerine

Glycerine

Don't let the days go by
Glycerine

I needed you more
When we wanted us less

I could not kiss just regress

It might just be
Clear simple and plain
That's just fine
That's just one of my names

Don't let the days go by

Could've been easier on you

Couldn’t change though I wanted to …

Oh where oh where can my baby be
The lord took her away from me
She's gone to heaven so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world

We were out on a date in my daddy's car
We hadn't driven very far
There in the road strait ahead
A car was stalled the engine was dead
I couldn't stop so I swerved to the right
I'll never forget the sound that night
The screaming tires the busting glass
The painful scream that I heard last

Oh where oh where can my baby be
The lord took her away from me
She's gone to heaven so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world

When I woke up the rain was pouring down
There were people standing all around
Something warm flowing through my eyes
But somehow I found my baby that night
I lifted her head she looked at me and said
Hold me darling just a little while
I held her close I kissed her our last kiss
I found the love that I knew I had missed
Well now she's gone even though I hold her tight
I lost my love my life that night

Oh where oh where can my baby be
The lord took her away from me
She's gone to heaven so I got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave this world
Woh (x4)
Ohh (x4)

Hello

There's a laughter on the line
Are you sure you're there alone?

Cause I'm
Tryin' to explain
Somethin's wrong
Ya just don't sound the same

Why don't you
Why don't you
Go outside
Go outside

Kiss the rain
Whenever you need me
Kiss the rain
Whenever I'm gone, too long.

If your lips
Feel lonely and thirsty
Kiss the rain
And wait for the dawn.

Keep in mind
We're under the same sky
And the nights
As empty for me, as for you
If ya feel
You can't wait till morinin'
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain

Hello
Do you miss me?
I hear you say you do
But not the way I'm missin' you

What's new?
How's the weather?
Is it stormy where you are?
Cause I'm so close but it feels like you're so far
Oh would it mean anything
If you knew
What I'm left imagining
In my mind
In my mind
Would you go
Would you go
Kiss the rain

And you'd fall over me
Think of me
Think of me
Think of me
Only me
Kiss the rain
Whenever I'm gone too long
If your lips
Feel lonely and thirsty
Kiss the rain
and wait for the dawn

Keep in mind
We're under the same skies
And the nights
As empty for me, as for you

If you feel
You can't wait till morning

Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Oooooohhhhh
Kiss the rain
Oooooohhhhh
Kiss the rain

Though nothing

We can beat them
For ever and ever
Oh we can be heroes
Just for one day


I
I will be king
And you
You will be queen
Though nothing will
Drive them away
We can beat them
Just for one day
We can be heroes
Just for one day

I can remember
Standing
By the wall
And the guns
Shot above our heads
And we kissed
As though nothing could fall
And the shame
Was on the other side
Oh we can beat them
For ever and ever
Then we can be heroes
Just for one day


We could be heroes
We could be heroes
We could be heroes
We could be heroes just one day

One of my favorite songs...


Dr. Heckyll works late at the laboratory
Where things are not as they seem
Dr. Heckyll wishes nothing more desperately
Than to fulfill his dreams
Letting loose with a scream in the dead of night
As he's breaking new ground
Trying his best to unlock all the secrets
But he's not sure what he's found

Dr. Heckyll is his own little guinea pig
'Cos they all think he's mad
Sets his sights on the search of a lifetime
And he's never, never sad

Whoa oh, its off to work he goes
In the name of science and all its wonders

This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive
They are a person who feels good to be alive
This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive
Believes the underdog will eventually survive

Not long now till the ultimate experiment
He's breaking all the rules
He wants to cure all matter of imbalance
In this world of fools

He locks the door and looks around nervously
He knows there's no one there
He drinks it down and waits for some reaction
To all his work and care

Hey, hey he fumbles for what to say
He loves the world except for all the people

This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive
They are a person who feels good to be alive
This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive
Believes the underdog will eventually survive

Whoa, oh, its out at night he goes
He sips easily into conversation
Hey hey, he's cool in every way
Sometimes he likes to sing that old black magic

This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive
They are a person who feels good to be alive
This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive
Believes the underdog will eventually survive

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
I'm just out to find
The better part of me
I'm more than a bird...I'm more than a plane
More than some pretty face beside a train
It's not easy to be me

Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I'll never see

It may sound absurd...but don't be nieve
Even Heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed...but won't you concede
Even Heroes have the right to dream
It's not easy to be me

Up, up and away...away from me
It's all right...you can all sleep sound tonight
I'm not crazy...or anything...

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
Men weren't meant to ride
With clouds between their knees

I'm only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me

ease my troubled mind
I left my body lyin' somewhere
in the sands of time
I watched the world float to the dark
side of the moon
I feel there's nothing I can do
yeah

I watched the world float to the
dark side of the moon
After all I knew it had to be something
to do with you
I really don't mind what happens now and then
As long as you'll be my friend at the end

If I go crazy then will you still
call me Superman
If I'm alive and well, will you be
there holdin' my hand
I'll keep you by my side with
my superhuman might
Kryptonite

You called me strong, you called me weak
but still your secrets I will keep
You took for granted all the times I
never let you down

You stumbled in and bumped your head, if
not for me then you'd be dead
I picked you up and put you back
on solid ground

If I go crazy then will you still
call me Superman
If I'm alive and well, will you be
there holdin' my hand
I'll keep you by my side with
my superhuman might
Kryptonite

Oh no no no no no

If I go crazy then will you still
call me Superman
If I'm alive and well, will you be
there holdin' my hand
I'll keep you by my side with

When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained

But darlin' when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same

'cause nothin' lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold november rain

We've been through this such a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain

But lovers always come and lovers always go
An no one's really sure who's lettin' go today
Walking away

If we could take the time to lay it on the line
I could rest my head
Just knowin' that you were mine
All mine

So if you want to love me
Then darlin' don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walkin'
In the cold november rain

Do you need some time...on your own
Do you need some time...all alone
Everybody needs some time...on their own
Don't you know you need some time...all alone

I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you

But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you

Sometimes i need some time...on my
Own sometimes i need some time...all alone
Everybody needs some time...on their own
Don't you know you need some time...all alone

And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain
I know that you can love me, ohhh yeahhh
When there's no one left to blame

So never mind the darkness
We still can find a way
'cause nothin' lasts forever
Even cold november rain

Don't ya think that you need somebody
Don't ya think that you need someone
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one

All our times have come
Here but now they’re gone
Seasons don’t fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain
We can be like they are

Come on baby
Don’t fear the reaper – Baby take my hand
Don’t fear the reaper – We’ll be able to fly
Don’t fear the reaper – Baby I’m your man

Laaaa la laaa la la la

Valentine is done
Here but now they’re gone

Are together in eternity – Romeo and Juliet
Forty thousand men and women everyday – Like Romeo and Juliet
Forty thousand men and women everyday – Redefine happiness
Another forty thousand coming everyday – We can be like they are

Come on baby
Don’t fear the reaper – Baby take my hand
Don’t fear the reaper – We’ll be able to fly
Don’t fear the reaper – Baby I’m your man

Laaaa la laaa la la la
Laaaa la laaa la la la

Love of two is one
Here but now they’re gone
Came the last night of sadness
Clear she couldn’t go on
Door was open and the wind appeared
The candles blew then disappeared
The curtains flew then he appeared
Saying don’t be afraid

Come on baby
And she had no fear
And she ran to him
Then she started to fly
They looked backward and said goodbye
She had become like they are
She had taken his hand
She had become like they are
Come on baby

Don’t fear the reaper
Don’t fear the reaper
Don’t fear the reaper

Not so long ago

Tommy used to work on the docks
Union's been on strike
He's down on his luck...it's tough, so tough
Gina works the diner all day
Working for her man, she brings home her pay
For love - for love

She says we've got to hold on to what we've got
'cause it doesn't make a difference
If we make it or not
We've got each other and that's a lot
For love - we'll give it a shot

Whooah, we're half way there
Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it - i swear
Livin' on a prayer

Tommy's got his six string in hock
Now he's holding in what he used
To make it talk - so tough, it's tough
Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night
Tommy whispers baby it's okay, someday

We've got to hold on to what we've got
'cause it doesn't make a difference
If we make it or not
We've got each other and that's a lot
For love - we'll give it a shot

Whooah, we're half way there
Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it - i swear
Livin' on a prayer

We've got to hold on ready or not
You live for the fight when it's all that you've got

Whooah, we're half way there
Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it - i swear
Livin' on a prayer

He looked down into the brown eyes
And said "Say a prayer for me"
And she threw her arms around him
Whispered "God will keep us free"

They could hear the riders coming
He said "This is my last fight,
"If they take me back to Texas,
"They won't take me back alive"

There were seven Spanish angels
At the altar of the Sun
They were praying for the lovers
In the Valley of the Gun

When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared
There was thunder from the throne
And seven Spanish angels
Took another angel home

She reached down and picked the gun up
That lay smoking in his hand
She said "Father please forgive me,
"I can't make it without my man"

And she knew the gun was empty
And she knew she couldn't win
But her final prayer was answered
When the rifles fired again

There were seven Spanish angels
At the altar of the Sun
They were praying for the lovers
In the Valley of the Gun

When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared
There was thunder from the throne
And seven Spanish angels
Took another angel home

There were seven Spanish angels (at the altar)
At the altar of the Sun (oh I believe)
They were praying for the lovers (yeah they was)

Nobody else here baby
No one here to blame
No one to point the finger
It's just you and me and the rain

It's the blind leading the blind
It's the stuff, it's the stuff of country songs

If God will send his angels
And if God will send a sign
And if God will send his angels
Would everything be alright?

God has got his phone off the hook, babe
Would he even pick up if he could
It's been a while since we saw that child
Hanging 'round this neighborhood

You see his mother dealing in a doorway
See Father Christmas with a begging bowl
Jesus sister's eyes are a blister
The High Street never looked so low

It's the blind, leading the blind
It's the cops collecting for the cons

If God will send his angels
And if God will send a sign
And if God will send his visions

Where do we go
Where do we go

Jesus never let me down
You know Jesus used to show me the score
Then they put Jesus in show business
Now it's hard to get in the door

It's the stuff, it's the stuff of country songs
But I guess it was something to go on
So where is the hope and where is the faith
And the love...
what's that you say to me?
Does love...
light up your Christmas Tree?
The next minute your blowing a fuse
And the cartoon network turns into the news

If God will send his angels
I sure could use them here right now
Well if God would send his angels

Where do we go
I don't need to lie
I don't need to know
And I don't want to promise
And I don't want to lie
I just want to feel the song

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I take a look at my life
And realize there's nothing left
'Cause I've been brassing and laughing so long
That even my momma thinks that my mind has gone
But I ain't never crossed a man that didn't deserve it
Me be treated like a punk, you know that's unheard of
You betta watch how ya talking
And where ya walking
Or you and your homies might be lined in chalk

I really hate to trip but I gotta loc
As they croak, I see myself in the pistol smoke
Fool, I'm the kinda g that little homie's wanna be like
On my knees in the night
Saying prayers in the street light

Been spending most our lives
Living in a gangsta's paradise

Keep spending most our lives
Living in a gangsta's paradise (2)

Look at the situation, they got me facing
I can't live a normal life, I was raised by the state
So I gotta be down with the 'hood team
Too much television watching, got me chasing dreams
I'm an educated fool with money on my mind
Got my ten in my hand and a gleam in my eye
I'm a locked out gangsta, set tripping banger
And my homies are down so don't arouse my anger
Fool, death ain't nothing but a heart beat away
I'm living life do or die, what can I say?
I'm twenty-three now , will I ever live to see twenty-four
The way things is going I don't know.

Tell me why are we so blind to see
That the ones we hurt are you and me?

Been spending most our lives
Living in a gangsta's paradise

Keep spending most our lives
Living in a gangsta's paradise

Power in the money, money in the power
Minute after minute, hour after hour
Everybody's running, but half of them ain't looking
It's going on in the kitchen
But I don't know what's cooking.
They say I gotta learn
But nobody's here to teach me
If they can't understand it, how can they reach me?
I guess they can't
I guess they won't, I guess they front
That's why I know my life is out of luck, fool!

Been spending most our lives
Living in a gangsta's paradise

Keep spending most our lives
Living in a gangsta's paradise

Tell me why are we so blind to see
That the ones we hurt are you and me?

Tell me why are we so blind to see

Just a small town girl, livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere

Just a city boy, born and raised in south detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere


A singer in a smokey room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on

Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night

Streetlights people, living just to find emotion
Hiding, somewhere in the night


Working hard to get my fill,
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice,
Just one more time

Some will win, some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on

Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night

Streetlights people, living just to find emotion
Hiding, somewhere in the night

Don't stop believin'
Hold on to the feelin'
Streetlight people
Oh oh ohhh..

Don't stop Believin'
Hold on
Street lights people
Oh oh ohhh...

Don't stop believin'
hold onto that feeling...

winding you way down to baker street
light in your head and dead on your feet
well another crazy day
you'll drink the night away
and forget about everything

this city desert makes you feel so cold
its got so many people but its got no soul
and its taking you so long
to find out you were wrong
when you thought it held everything

you still think that it was so easy
you used to say that it was so easy
but you're trying, you're trying now

another year and then you'd be happy
just one more year and then you'd be happy
but you're crying you're crying now

way down the street there's a lad in his place
he opens the door
and hes got that look on his face
and he asks you were you've been
you tell him who you've seen
and you talk about anything

he's got this dream about buying some land
he's gonna give up the booze and the one night stands
and then he'll settle down
in some quite little town
and forget about everything

but you know he'll always keep moving
you know he's never gonna stop moving
cause he's rolling, he's the rolling stones

when you wake up its a new morning
the sun is shining its a new morning
you're going, your going' on

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
You been out ridin' fences for so long now

Oh, you're a hard one
I know that you got your reasons
These things that are pleasin' you
Can hurt you somehow

Don' you draw the queen of diamonds, boy
She'll beat you if she's able
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet

Now it seems to me, some fine things
Have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones that you can't get

Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no youger
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
And freedom, oh freedom well, that's just some people talkin'
Your prison is walking through this world all alone

Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
You're loosin' all your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away?

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences, open the gate
It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you, before it's too late

Paddy's Lamentation

Well it's by the hush, me boys, and sure that's to hold your noise
And listen to poor Paddy's sad narration
I was by hunger pressed, and in poverty distressed
So I took a thought I'd leave the Irish nation

Here's to you boys, now take my advice
To America I'll have ye's not be going
There is nothing here but war, where the murderin' cannons roar
And I wish I was at home in dear old Dublin

Well I sold me ass and cow, my little pigs and sow
My little plot of land I soon did part with
And me sweetheart Bid McGee, I'm afraid I'll never see
For I left her there that morning broken-hearted

Well meself and a hundred more, to America sailed o'er
Our fortunes to be made [sic] we were thinkin'
When we got to Yankee land, they shoved a gun into our hands
Saying "Paddy, you must go and fight for Lincoln"

General Meagher to us he said, if you get shot or lose your head
Every murdered soul of youse will get a pension
Well meself I lost me leg, they gave me a wooden peg,
And by God this is the truth to you I mention

Well I think meself in luck, if I get fed on Indian buck
And old Ireland is the country I delight in
With the devil, I do say, it's curse Americay
For I think I've had enough of your hard fightin'

All hope was gone
Hard to hang on
Hard to be strong
Was blind, could not see
Nothing but walls in front of me and inside no peace

And the mountains seemed impossible to climb until...

[Chorus]

You stood on the front lines
You led the way, out of the darkness
We didn't go astray
You were ready to die for our sake
And that takes a soldier's heart

Oceans so deep
Uphill so steep
But still we believe
And when the road was too far to travel
Heroes you came and carried us there

And the mountains seemed impossible to climb until...

You stood on the front lines
You led the way, out of the darkness
We didn't go astray
You were ready to die for our sake
And that takes a soldier's heart

And so our flag was still there
All because you decided to care

You stood on the front lines
You led the way, out of the darkness
We didn't go astray
You were ready to die for our sake
And that takes a soldier's heart

You stood on the front lines
You led the way, out of the darkness
You could have let us go astray
You were ready to die for our sake
And that takes a soldier's heart

And that takes a soldier's heart

Closing time - time for you to go out, go out into the world.
Closing time - turn the lights up over every boy and every girl.
Closing time - one last call for alcohol, so finish your whiskey or beer.
Closing time - you don't have to go home but you can't stay here.

I know who I want to take me home.
I know who I want to take me home.
I know who I want to take me home.
Take me home...

Closing time - time for you to go back to the places you will be from.
Closing time - this room won't be open 'til your brothers or you sisters come.
So gather up your jackets, and move it to the exits - I hope you have found a
friend.
Closing time - every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end.

Yeah, I know who I want to take me home.
I know who I want to take me home.
I know who I want to take me home.

*Claps, then makes her way to the stage. A single, soft light falls upon her form, staring intently at the floor*

No I would not sleep in this bed of lies...

*She looks up, her expression blank*

So toss me out and turn in

*She looks away, and sings as if to herself*

And there'll be no rest for these tired eyes
I'm marking it down to learning, I am.


*Gaining purpose in her voice, she looks out again, but still at nothing*

Don't think that I can take another empty moment
Don't think that I can fake another
hollow smile
It's not enough just to be sorry
Don't think that I could take
another talk about it


*She looks down and sings softly*

Just like me you got needs
And they're only a whisper away
And we softly surrender
To these lives that we've
tendered away


*She raises her face to the light*

No I would not sleep in this
bed of lies
So toss me out and turn in


*Her eyes take on a wet shine, but no tears will fall tonight*

And there'll be no rest for these tired eyes
I'm marking ot down to learning, I am

Don't wanna be the one who turns the whole thing over
Don't wanna be somewhere where I just don't belong
Where it's not enough just to be sorry


*Her voice becomes nearly a whisper*

Don't you know I feel the darkness closing in

*Here eyes fall to the foor*

Tried to be more than me
And I gave 'til it all went away
And we've only surrendered
To the worst part of
these winters we've
made


*She looks straight ahead, her voice strong*

I am all that I'll ever be
When you- lay your hands
Over me
But don't go weak on me now
I know that it's
weak
But God help me I need this


*She pauses, and her voice once again gains a soft quality to her words*

I will not sleep in this bed of lies.

*She looks out into the darkness and whispers*

For anyone who has had to rest their eyes...in a bed of lies...

We walk the narrow path
Beneath the smoking skies.
Sometimes,
I can barely tell the difference
Between darkness
And Light.
And do we have faith
I what we believe?
The truest test
Is when we cannot
When we cannot see

Where the sidewalk ends
And the road begins
We said good bye
On a cold dark night
I'm not afraid to go
You bet i'm not
Where the sidewalk ends
You left a lot

Some people leave
And never come back
Some stay in touch
Some loose track

Your mind kept sayin'
Come on let's go
You started learnin'
What you don't need to know

Where the sidewalk ends
And the road begins
I'll wait for you
In the cold dark night
You might come back
You had to go
Where the sidewalk ends
I'll never know

Hide from the future
Run from the past
I guess i'll stay here
As long as i can last
Whistle still blowin'
But the train is gone
Ain't no wheels
Gonna take me from my home

Where the sidewalk ends
And the road begins
We said good bye
On a cold dark night
I'm not afraid to go
You bet i'm not
Where the sidewalk ends
You left a lot

I'm not afraid to go

Please come to Boston for the Springtime
I'm stayin' here with some friends and they've got lotsa room
You can sell your paintings on the sidewalk
By a cafe where I hope to be workin' soon
Please come to Boston
She said "No-would you come home to me?"

And she said, "hey ramblin' boy now wontcha settle down?"
"Boston ain't your kinda town"
"There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me"
"I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee"

Please come to Denver with the snowfall
We'll move up into the mountains so far that we can't be found
And throw "I love you" echoes down the canyon
And then lie awake at night till they come back around
Please come to Denver
She said "No-boy, would you come home to me?"

And she said, "hey ramblin' boy why dontcha settle down?"
"Denver ain't your kinda town"
"There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me"
" 'cause I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee"

Now this drifter's world goes 'round and 'round
And I doubt that it's ever gonna stop
But of all the dreams I've lost or found
And all that I ain't got
I still need to lean to
Somebody I can sing to

Please come to LA to live forever
California life alone is just too hard to build
I live in a house that looks out over the ocean
And there's some stars that fell from the sky
Livin' up on the hill
Please come to LA
She just said "No-boy, won't you come home to me?"

And she said, "hey ramblin' boy why dontcha settle down?"
"LA can't be your kinda town"
"There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me"

Psychic spies from China
Try to steal your mind’s elation
Little girls from Sweden
Dream of silver screen flirtations
And if you want these kind of dreams
It’s Californication

It’s the edge of the world
And all of western civilization
The sun may rise in the East
At least it settles in the final location
It’s understood that Hollywood
sells Californication

Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Celebrity skin is this your chin
Or is that war your waging

First born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication

Marry me girl be my fairy to the world
Be my very own constellation
A teenage bride with a baby inside
Getting high on information
And buy me a star on the boulevard
It’s Californication

Space may be the final frontier
But it’s made in a Hollywood basement
Cobain can you hear the spheres
Singing songs off station to station
And Alderon’s not far away
It’s Californication

Born and raised by those who praise
Control of population everybody’s been there
and
I don’t mean on vacation

First born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication

Destruction leads to a very rough road
But it also breeds creation
And earthquakes are to a girl’s guitar
They’re just another good vibration
And tidal waves couldn’t save the world
From Californication

Pay your surgeon very well
To break the spell of aging
Sicker than the rest
There is no test
But this is what you’re craving

First born unicorn
Hard core soft porn
Dream of Californication
Dream of Californication

In Santa Monica, in the winter time
The lazy streets so undemanding
I walk into the crowd
In Santa Monica, you get your coffee from
The coolest places on the promenade
Where people dress just so
Beauty so unavoidable,
everywhere you turn
It's there
I sit and wonder what am I doing here?

But on the telephone line I am anyone
I am anything I want to be
I could be a supermodel or Norman Mailer
And you wouldn't know the difference
Or would you?

In Santa Monica, all the people got
modern names
Like Jake or Mandy
And modern bodies too

In Santa Monica, on the boulevard,
You'll have to dodge those in-line skaters
Or they'll knock you down
I never felt so lonely,
Never felt so out of place
I never wanted something more than this

But on the telephone line I am anyone
I am anything I want to be
I could be a supermodel or Norman Mailer
And you wouldn't know the difference
On the telephone line, I am any height
I am any age I want to be
I could be a caped crusader, or
space invader
And you would know the difference

Mata ah-oo hima de
Domo arigato, mr. roboto,
Himitsu wo shiri tai

You're wondering who i am-machine or mannequin
With parts made in japan, i am the modren man

I've got a secret i've been hiding under my skin
My heart is human, my blood is boiling, my brain i.b.m.
So if you see me acting strangely, don't be surprised
I'm just a man who needed someone, and somewhere to hide
To keep me alive-just keep me alive
Somewhere to hide to keep me alive

I'm not a robot without emotions-i'm not what you see
I've come to help you with your problems, so we can be free
I'm not a hero, i'm not a saviour, forget what you know
I'm just a man whose circumstances went beyond his control
Beyond my control-we all need control
I need control-we all need control

I am the modren man, who hides behind a mask
So no one else can see my true identity

Domo arigato, mr. roboto, domo...domo
Domo arigato, mr. roboto, domo...domo
Domo arigato, mr. roboto, domo...domo
Thank you very much, mr. roboto
For doing the jobs that nobody wants to
And thank you very much, mr. roboto
For helping me escape just when i needed to
Thank you-thank you, thank you
I want to thank you, please, thank you

The problem's plain to see: too much technology
Machines to save our lives. machines dehumanize.

The time has come at last
To throw away this mask
Now everyone can see
My true identity...
I'm kilroy! kilroy! kilroy! kilroy!

Where the clouds are like headlines upon a new front page sky.

And i know martin egan is gonna be proud of me.

To be up in the crows nest singin' my saying:
Shiver me timbers. sailing away.

And the fog's liftin, the sand's shifting, i'm drifting on out.
Old captain ahab's got nothin' on me.
Swallow me, don't follow me. i travel alone.
The water's my daughter. i shall skip like a stone.

And the fog's lifting, the sand's shifting, i'm drifting on out.
Old captain ahab longs to hear me shout.
Swallow me, don't follow me. i travel alone.

Won't you please call my old man. tell him not to cry.
My goodbyes are written by the moon in the sky.
Say, nobody knows me. can't further my stay.
Shiver me timbers. i'm sailing away.

La, la, la, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la.
La, la, la, la, la, la, la,
La, la-a, la.

“I have often walked down this street before;
But the pavement always stayed beneath before,
All at once am I several stories high,
Knowing I’m on the street where you live.

Are there lilac trees in the heart of town?
Can you hear a lark in any other part of town?
Does enchantment pour, out of every door?
No, its just on the street where you live!

And, O!, the towering feeling,
Just to know, somehow, you are near,
The overpowering feeling,
That any second, you may suddenly appear.

“People stop and stare, but they don’t bother me,
For there is no where else on Earth,
That I would rather be,
Let the time go by, I won’t care if I,
Can be here on the street where you live!

People stop and stare, but they don't bother me,
For there's no where else on Earth that I would rather be,
Let the time go by, I won't care if I,
Can be here on the street where you live!

Let me be on the street where you live..."

Under the sun, there is nothing to hide
Under the moon, the stranger waits inside
People disappear
The music fades away
Splashing through the rain
I'll dream with them one day

It's raining, raining,
On the streets of New York City
It's raining, raining, raining deep in heaven

I may have wasted all those years
They're not worth their time in tears
I may have spent too long in darkness
In the warmth of my fears

Take a look at yourself
Not at anyone else
And tell me what you see
I know the air is cold
I know the streets are cruel
But I'll enjoy the ride today

It's raining, raining,
On the streets of New York City
It's raining, raining, raining deep in heaven

I may have wasted all those years
They're not worth their time in tears
I may have spent too long in darkness
In the warmth of my fears

As I walks through all my myths
Rising and sinking like the waves
With my thoughts wrapped around me
Through a trial of tears

Hidden by disguise, stumbling in a world
Feeling uninspired, he gets into his car
Not within his eyes to see, open up, open up
Not much better than the man you hate

Still awake
I continue to move along
Cultivating my own nonsense
Welcome to the wasteland
Where you'll find ashes, nothing but ashes
Still awake
Bringing change, bringing movement,
Bringing life
A silent prayer thrown away
Disappearing in the air
Rising, sinking, Raining deep inside me
Nowhere to turn,
I look for a way back home

It's raining, raining, raining deep in heaven

<Checking to see that the room is clear and no one could see, Remedy slowly took the stage and unfolded his page of lyrics.>

When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye

You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry

You float like a feather
In a beautiful world

And I wish I was special
You're so f====n' special

But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.

I don't care if it hurts

I want to have control

I want a perfect body

I want a perfect soul

<Remedy begins to fade away in to the empty room>

I want you to notice

When I'm not around

You're so f====n' special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo.
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here.

<He fades out further until he's nothing more than a cloud of Remedy Haze>

Whatever makes you happy

Whatever you want

You're so f====n' special

I wish I was special...

But I'm a creep,

I'm a weirdo,

What the hell am I doing here?

I don't belong here.

I don't belong here.

<He fades until he's just a set of blue and white glowing eyes>

I don' belong ...

Of all the things I've believed in
I just want to get it over with
Tears form behind my eyes
But I do not cry
Counting the days that pass me by

I've been searching deep down in my soul
Words that I'm hearing are starting to get old
It feels like I'm starting all over again
The last three years were just pretend
And I said,

Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to

I still get lost in your eyes
And it seems that I can't live a day without you
Closing my eyes and you chase my thoughts away
To a place where I am blinded by the light
But it's not right

Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to

And it hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time
I want what's yours and I want what's mine
I want you
But I'm not giving in this time

Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
The one thing that I tried to hold on to

And when the stars fall
I will lie awake
You're my shooting star

Some things were perfectly clear, seen with the vision of youth
No doubts and nothing to fear, I claimed the corner on truth
These days it's harder to say I know what I'm fighting for
My faith is falling away
I'm not that sure anymore

Shades of grey wherever I go
The more I find out the less that I know
Black and white is how it should be
But shades of grey are the colors I see

Once there were trenches and walls and one point of every view
Fight 'til the other man falls
Kill him before he kills you
These days the edges are blurred, I'm old and tired of war
I hear the other man's words
I'm not that sure anymore

Shades of grey are all that I find
When I come to the enemy line
Black and white was so easy for me
But shades of grey are the colors I see

Now with the wisdom of years I try to reason things out
And the only people I fear are those who never have doubts
Save us all from arrogant men, and all the causes they're for
I won't be righteous again
I'm not that sure anymore

Shades of grey wherever I go
The more I find out the less that I know
Ain't no rainbows shining on me
Shades of grey are the colors I see

Standing in the rain, with his head hung low
Couldn't get a ticket, it was a sold out show
Heard the roar of the crowd, he could picture the scene
Put his ear to the wall, then like a distant scream

He heard one guitar, just blew him away
He saw stars in his eyes, and the very next day
Bought a beat up six string in a secondhand store
Didn't know how to play it, but he knew for sure

That one guitar, felt good in his hands
Didn't take long, to understand
Just one guitar, slung way down low
Was one way ticket, only one way to go

So he started rockin'
Ain't never gonna stop
Gotta keep on rockin'
Someday he's gonna make it to the top

And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke box hero
He took one guitar, juke box hero, stars in his eyes
Juke box hero, he'll come alive tonight

In a town without a name, in a heavy downpour
Thought he passed his own shadow, by the backstage door
Like a trip through the past, to that day in the rain
And that one guitar made his whole life change

Now he needs to keep rockin'
He just can't stop
Gotta keep on rockin'
That boy has got to stay on top

And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
Yeah, juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
With that one guitar he'll come alive
Come alive tonight

Yeah, he's gotta keep rockin'
He just can't stop
Gotta keep on rockin'
That boy has got to stay on top

And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
Just one guitar, put stars in his eyes
He's just a juke box hero, aah aah aah
Juke box hero, juke box hero, he's got stars in his eyes
Stars in his eyes

In the wintercold I see the blood
clotting slowly in the snow
Unsung heroes cry in the night
may they die before dawn

Broken banners mourn fallen crowns
grieving swords lay all around
As the swansong touches the mountainside
unseeing eyes look at you

Can't you hear it
hear the sorrows vail
Oh, can't you see it
the newborn day

Impaled hearts welcome the end of pain
black blood releasing warrior souls
Vultures circle 'round the fields of grief
another graveyard, another tale

Can't you hear it
hear the sorrows vail
Oh, can't you see it
the newborn day

The heart is a bloom
Shoots up through the stony ground
There's no room
No space to rent in this town

You're out of luck
And the reason that you had to care
The traffic is stuck
And you're not moving anywhere

You thought you'd found a friend
To take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand
In return for grace

It's a beautiful day
Sky falls, you feel like
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away

You're on the road
But you've got no destination
You're in the mud
In the maze of her imagination

You love this town
Even if that doesn't ring true
You've been all over
And it's been all over you

It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
It's a beautiful day

Touch me
Take me to that other place
Teach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case

See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out

It was a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
Beautiful day

Touch me
Take me to that other place
Reach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case

What you don't have you don't need it now
What you don't know you can feel it somehow
What you don't have you don't need it now
Don't need it now
Was a beautiful day

Maybe somewhere in the southern
hemisphere
There could be room for all this love
Where they've saved a place for innocence
And what is still mysterious
And their dreaming time
They're dreaming time

Because we've broken down the
wilderness
And we've blackened up the skies
And we cry 'cause we've got no vision left
While the smoke gets in our eyes
And there's no more time
And the dream is dying

But I love you baby
And I know you and I
Can find a way to heaven
Just like Orion in the sky
He's the long lost hero
He's the guardian of your son
But can he protect us baby
>From all the sad things we've done

Now I know there's no sense in hiding
And we can't escape this war
And I have made my peace with dying
Down here on this killing floor
In a world gone blind
Where there's no more time

But I love you baby
And I know by and by
We gonna find a way to heaven
Just like Orion in the sky
He can walk upon the water
He can shine for everyone
But can he protect us baby
>From all the sad things we've done

Is it too much to ask in a lifetime
For just one shot at happiness
Do you just have to laugh at the right lines
Until you come face to face
With the looking glass
To be reckoned with the sins of our time

I love you baby
I can see you and I
As we fly away together
Up to Orion in the sky
He's the last of the fallen angels
He's the light of the Southern Cross
Maybe he can take us baby
Back to the paradise we've lost

So I'll see you darlin'
Now fly baby, fly
Down across the Fiji Islands
To where the Seven Sisters cry
Gather all your dreams and take them
Somewhere so far out of reach
Follow the sword of the hunter, baby
And meet me on the beach
We are forever tied
Still on the run
To the medicine man
For all the sad, sad things
We've done

'Cos I know I don't belong
Here in heaven

Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven
I'll find my way through night and day
I just can't stay
Here in heaven

Time can bring you down
Time can bend your knees
Time can break your heart
Have you begging please
Begging please

Beyond the door
There's peace I'm sure
And I know
There'll be no more
Tears in heaven

Would you know my name

Would it be the same

I must be strong and carry on
'Cos I know I don't belong

Honour the fallen heroes
See their last resting place
Perished in the battle of nations
Where they found eternal peace
Do you know the use of their decorations?
Awarded for patriotism
They left their life in fire
But don't know even why

Remember the fallen
Remember the fallen

To the command of despotic dictators
They marched to fight in a senseless war
Most of them were just puppets and children
The battle was lost before it began

Brotherly in heart and hand
Know that they never come back
With combined effort
And the believe in god
Their duty only as cannon fodder
Kamikaze as living bombs
Driven into the open knife
Deceitful and malicious

Remember the fallen
Remember the fallen

Their tormented souls will never rest
To pay us back for their innocent death
No quarter shed our proud blood
Retaliation on the warpath

Rollin' out to Vegas
On an eastbound outta L.A.
I met a roughneck man who hailed from Alabama
His eyes had a lot to say
And his name was Rufus Champion
They call that train the desert wind
And it blew like a mutha that day
Thru the Joshua Trees
We were battin' the breeze
About our rock'n roll heros
Dead or alive

Out across that night did we sail
Bone against steel against the rail
Boats against the stream
Cutting against the grain
Kept on rollin'
Bone against steel

As the moon rose in the window
Rufus began his tale
About an oil rig near the gulf coast
Puttin' man against metal
In a classic work-place accident
He told how the drill commenced to shakin'
The platform started to rock
The chain began breaking
They were straight out of luck
And then the sky kinda lite up
Just like a lightnin' bolt had struck

Out across that night did we sail
Bone against steel against the rail
Boats against the stream
Cutting against the grain
Kept on rollin'
Bone against steel

Workmen's compensation don't compensate for much
With the doctors and lawyers and the IRS and such
You can break up the bone
But the spirit just won't bust
When is bone against steel
With casino lights up a shimmering
We made that Vegas stop
And we laughed away our blues
Now here's the good news
Rufus walks off heels a kickin'
With his baby right by his side
And as they waltzed on out of view
We were back up to speed
And clean outta sight

Out across that night did we sail
Bone against steel against the rail
Boats against the stream
Cutting against the grain
Kept on rollin'
Bone against steel

Out across that night did we sail
Bone against steel against the rail
Boats against the stream
Cutting against the grain
Kept on rollin'
Bone against steel

Under the black sunlight
On deserted streets
Uneasy dreams i sleep
In this forgitten place
I'm a forgotten face
Sometimes i don't exist
Like the dust swept aside

Fade away on the wind fadeaway
To walk away into the tide walkaway

That's the end
That's the end
The end of the great black gold
That's the dream
That's the dream
The dream that i wake up to
The dawn of the great black sun
It shines on me

Scream for help
From this silent soul
This man feels no pain
This pride will not break
I want to breathe the night
I want to feel the air
I want to take it in deep
I want to set myself free

Fade away on the wind fadeaway
Walk away into the tide walkaway

Woke up in a cold sweat
In the middle of the night
Seems like a lifetime
When you're wondering who's
wrong or right
One confession would resurrect
the truth
Revenge or forgiveness for sins
between me and you

Now we dance with the devil down
lonely street, lonely street

Looking for window in the house
of tears
Living in hell, I pray the rain disappears
I'm headed for a breakdown
And the fever runs higher
As I kneel at the altar I can feel your fire
In the church of desire
Church of desire

You never find a reason why love falls
from grace
Some kind of voodoo, like a spirit
you can't embrace
There's a voice in the mirror, and
a ghost in my heart
That relives the passion before we were
torn apart

Now we dance with the devil down
lonely street, lonely street

Looking for a window in the house
of tears
Living in hell, I pray the rain disappears
I'm headed for a breakdown
And the fever runs higher
As I kneel at the altar I can feel your fire
In the church of desire
Church of desire

Now we dance with the devil down
lonely street, lonely street

Looking for a window in the house

Living in hell, I pray the rain disappears

In this bookcase full of stories
You find some of them are true
Tales of love and glory
Many lives of daring-do
There is mystery and adventure
They lie waiting there for you
So step inside and find the other you

Take the high road tomorrow
But the low road today
Reading other's sorrow
Might just be the only way
The father hears confession
While the mother's feeling blue
These characters do what you want them to

In these pages we consume
Lives in many colors lovers in full bloom
And through the ages words are born
Speaking to the senses lifting the forlorn

There's glamour and dementia
A message from the tomb
Staircase to the heavens
And secrets in the room
When you are riding on that dark horse
To the one that got away
There's no regrets and no dues left to pay

'cause in these pages we consume
Lives in many colors lovers in full bloom
And through the ages words are born
Speaking to the senses lifting the forlorn

Drifting down the river of the make believe
We laugh and grieve
Hoping for an ending of our own design
Where all is fine

In these pages we consume
Lives in many colors lovers in full bloom
And through the ages words are born
Speaking to the senses lifting the forlorn

Lives in many colors lovers in full bloom

If I could reach the stars I'd pull one down for you
Shine it on my heart so you could see the truth
That this love I have inside is everything it seems
But for now I find it's only in my dreams

That I can change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You will think my love was really something good
Baby if I could change the world

If I could be king even for a day
I'd take you as my queen I'd have it no other way
And our love will rule in this kingdom we have made
Till then I'd be a fool wishin' for the day

That I can change the world

Her breath began to speak
As she stood right in front of me
The colour of her eyes
Were the colour of insanity
Crushed beneath her wave
Like a ship, I could not reach her shore
We're all just dancers on the Devil's Dance Floor

Well swing a little more, little more o'er the merry-o
Swing a little more, a little more next to me
Swing a little more, little more o'er the merry-o
Swing a little more, on the Devil's Dance Floor

Pressed against her face
I could feel her insecurity
Her mother'd been a drunk
And her father was obscurity
But nothin' ever came
From a life that was a simple one
So pull yourself together girl
And have a little fun

Well she took me by the hand
I could see she was a fiery one
Her legs ran all the way
Up to heaven and past Avalon
Tell me somethin' girl, what it is you have in store
She said come with me now
On the Devil's Dance Floor

Well swing a little more, little more o'er the merry-o
Swing a little more, a little more next to me
Swing a little more, little more o'er the merry-o
Swing a little more, on the Devil's Dance Floor

The apple now is sweet
Oh much sweeter than it ought to be
Another little bite
I don't think there is much hope for me
The sweat beneath her brow
Travels all the way
An' headin' south
This bleedin' heart's cryin'
Cause there's no way out

Well swing a little more, little more o'er the merry-o
Swing a little more, a little more next to me
Swing a little more, little more o'er the merry-o

The devil went down to georgia, he was looking for a soul to steal
He was in a bind, cause he was way behind
And he was willing to make a deal

Well he come across a young man sawing on a fiddle and he played it hot
The devil jumped up on a hickory stump
And said "boy, let me tell you what

In case you didn't know it, i'm a fiddle player too
And if you care to make a dare
I'll make a bet with you

Now you play pretty good fiddle, son but give the devil his due
I'll bet a fiddle of gold against your soul
Cause i think i'm better than you"

Well the boy said "my name's johnny, and it might be a sin
But i'll take your bet you're gonna regret
Cause i'm the best there's ever been"

Johnny rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hard
Cause hell's broke loose in georgia
And the devil deals the cards

And if you win you'll get this shiny fiddle made of gold
But if you lose the devil gets your soul
The devil opened up his case, and said, "i'll start this show"

And fire flew from his finger tips as he rosined up his bow
When he pulled that bow across the strings, it made an evil hiss
And a band of demons joined in, it sounded just like this

When the devil finished, johnny said, "well you're pretty good old son
But just sit down in that chair right there and let me show you how it's done"

He played fire on the mountain, run, boys, run
The devil's in the house with the rising sun,
Chicken in the breadpan picking out dough,
Granny does your dog bite, "no, child, no"

The devil bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat
And he laid that golden fiddle on the ground at johnny's feet
And johnny said, "devil, come on back if you ever want to try again
But i told you once, you son of a bitch, i'm the best there's ever been!"

He played fire on the mountain, run, boys, run
The devil's in the house with the rising sun

Please allow me to introduce myself
I´m a man of wealth and taste
I´ve been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and fate
I was around when jesus christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what´s puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
Stuck around st. petersburg
When i saw it was time for a change
Killed the czar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain
I rode a tank
In a general's rank
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the finest stank
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what´s puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made
I shouted out
"who killed the kennedys?"
When after all
It was you and me
Let me please introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
And i laid tracks for troubadours
Who get killed before they reached bombay
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what´s puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
Just as every cop is a criminal
And all you sinner's saints
As heads is tails
Just call me lucifer
'cause i'm in need of some restraint
So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy and some taste
Use all your well learned qualities
Or i'll lay your soul to waste

The first flush of youth was upon you when our eyes first met
And I knew that to you and into your life I had to get
I felt light-headed at the touch of this stranger's hand
An assault my defences systematically failed to withstand

'Cos you came at a time
When the pursuit of one true love in which to fall
Was the be all and end all

Love is only a feeling
(Drifting away)
When I'm in your arms I start believing
(It's here to stay)
But love is only a feeling
Anyway

The state of elation that this unison of hearts achieved
I had seen, I had touched, I had tasted and I truly believed

That the light of my life
Would tear a hole right through each cloud that scudded by
Just to beam on you and I

Love is only a feeling
(Drifting away)
When I'm in your arms I start believing
(It's here to stay)
But love is only a feeling
Anyway, anyway

Love is only a feeling
(Drifting away)
And we've got to stop ourselves believing
(It's here to stay)
'Cos love is only a feeling
Anyway.

It's easier to run
Replacing this pain with something numb
It’s so much easier to go
Then face this pain here all alone

Something has been taken from deep inside of me
The secret I’ve kept locked away noone could never see
wounds so deep they never show
They never go away
Like moving pictures in my head
for years and years they've played

If I could change I would
Take back the pain I would
Retrace every wrong move that I made I would
If I could stand up and take the blame I would
If I could take all the shame to the grave I would

Sometimes I remember the darkness of my past
Bringing back these memories I wish I didn’t have
Sometimes I think of letting go and never looking back
And never moving forward so, there'd never be a past

Just washing it aside
All of the helplessness inside
Pretending I don’t feel misplaced
It’s so much simpler than change

Spend all your time waiting
for that second chance
for a break that would make it okay
there's always some reason
to feel not good enough
and it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
oh beautiful release
memories seep from my veins
let me be empty
oh and weightless then maybe
I'll find some peace tonight

In the arms of the angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you feel
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here

So tired of the straight line
and everywhere you turn
there's vultures and thieves at your back
the storm keeps on twisting
you keep on building the lies
that you make up for all that you lack
it don't make no difference
escaping one last time
it's easier to believe
in this sweet madness oh
this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees

In the arms of the angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you feel
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here

You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in the fields of gold

So she took her love
For to gaze awhile
Upon the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of gold

Will you stay with me, will you be my love
Among the fields of barley
We'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we lie in the fields of gold

See the west wind move like a lover so
Upon the fields of barley
Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth
Among the fields of gold
I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I've broken
But I swear in the days still left
We'll walk in the fields of gold
We'll walk in the fields of gold

Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
Among the fields of gold
You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in the fields of gold
When we walked in the fields of gold
When we walked in the fields of gold

*claps* Love that one...got it on playlist. *soft smile* Hmmm...what to follow with?

So lately, I've been wonderin
Who will be there to take my place
When I'm gone, you'll need love
To light the shadows on your face
If a great wave should fall
It would fall upon us all
And between the sand and stone
Could you make it on your own

If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low
I'll go wherever you will go

And maybe, I'll find out
The way to make it back someday
To watch you, to guide you
Through the darkest of your days
If a great wave should fall
It would fall upon us all
Well I hope there's someone out there
Who can bring me back to you

If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low
I'll go wherever you will go

Runaway with my heart
Runaway with my hope
Runaway with my love

I know now, just quite how
My life and love might still go on
In your heart and your mind
I'll stay with you for all of time

If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low
I'll go wherever you will go

If I could turn back time
I'll go wherever you will go
If I could make you mine
I'll go wherever you will go

Are you back in my life to stay?
Or is it just for today...
Oh that you're gonna need me?

If it's a thrill you're looking for...

Honey, I'm flexible. Oh, yeah.

Just be for real! Won't you, Baby?

Be for real oh, Baby
You see I,
I don't want
to be hurt by love
... again

So you see I'm not naive.
I just would like to believe
Ah what you tell me.
So don't give me the world today
And tomorrow take it away.
Don't do that to me, darling.

Just be for real won't you, Baby
Be for real won't you, Baby

Been hurt so many times
You see I, I don't want to be hurt by love again.

(I don't give a damn about the truth, Baby
Except for the naked truth. Oh yeah)

Just be for real ... won't you, Baby?
Be for real won't you, Baby?

Be for real oh, Baby
You see ... I,
I don't want ...
to be hurt by love
... again

In my eyes, indisposed
In disguise as no one knows
Hides the face, lies the snake
The sun in my disgrace
Boiling heat, summer stench
'Neath the black the sky looks dead
Call my name through the cream
And I'll hear you scream again

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Won't you come

Stuttering, cold and damp
Steal the warm wind tired friend
Times are gone for honest men
And sometimes far too long for snakes
In my shoes, a walking sleep
And my youth I pray to keep
Heaven send Hell away
No one sings like you anymore

Hang my head, drown my fear
Till you all just disappear

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Won't you come

Too many struggles, too many scenes
A broken record of miseries
And if you let it, it makes you cry
And you can never be satisfied
I see the victims of low esteem
The empty people without a dream
The bitter faces of bitter men
And i don't want to end up one of them

How will it make me cry
If i won't let a tear in my eye
How will it make me feel worse
If i won't let it hurt
I've been through trouble before
I stood tall when i got up off the floor
To find myself a different situation

Now when the sun rolls across the sky
And the autumn leaves fall before my eyes
I can see the reason why
I remember how to forget

Too many troubles and memories
Of disappointment and apathy
And if you let it, it makes you hate
You've got to learn to take it day by day
I see the victims of low esteem
The empty people without a dream
The bitter faces of bitter men
But i don't want to be one of them

I see the sun roll across the sky
And the autumn leaves fall before my eyes
And i know the reason why
I feel so fine

I’ve got you under my skin
I’ve got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart, that you’re really a part of me
I’ve got you under my skin

I’ve tried so not to give in
I’ve said to myself this affair never will go so well
But why should I try to resist, when baby will I know so well
That I’ve got you under my skin

I’d sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of having you near
In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear

Don’t you know little fool, you never can win
Use your mentality, wake up to reality
But each time that I do, just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
’cause I’ve got you under my skin

A walking cane here at my side
I take it everywhere I walk
I'm an Englishman in New York

I'm an alien, I'm a legal alien

Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety
You could end up as the only one
Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society
At night a candle's brighter than the sun

Takes more than combat gear to make a man
Takes more than license for a gun
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
A gentleman will walk but never run

There’s too much confusion

Plow men dig my earth
None will level on the line
Nobody of it is worth
Hey hey

Who feel that life is but a joke but uh
But you and I we’ve been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now
The hour’s getting late
Hey

Hey

All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Bare-foot servants to, but huh
Outside in the cold distance
A wild cat did growl
Two riders were approachin’
And the wind began to howl
Hey

Hear you sing around the watch
Gotta beware gotta beware I will

The skys were pure and the fields were green,
and the sun was brighter than it's ever been
When I grew up with my best friend, Kenny,
we were close as any brothers that you ever knew


It was always summer and the future called
We were ready for adventures and we wanted them all,
and there was so much left to dream,
and so much time to make it real


But I can still recall the sting of all the tears when he was gone
They say he crashed and burned, I swear I'll never learn,
why any boy should die so young


We were racing; we were soldiers of fortune
We got in trouble but we sure got around
There are times I think I see him peeling out of the dark
I think he's right behind me now, and he's gaining ground


But it was long ago, and it was far away
Oh God, it seems so very far,
and if life is just a highway, then the soul is just a car


And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
They are


And when the sun descended and the night arose
I heard my father cursing everyone he knows
He was dangerous and drunk and defeated,
and corroded by failure and envy and hate


There were endless winters and the dreams would freeze
No where to hide and no leaves on the trees,
and my father's eyes were blank as he hit me again and again and again


I know I still believe he'd never let me leave, I had to run away alone
So many threats and fears, so many wasted years,
before my life became my own


And though the nightmares should be over,
some of the terrors are still intact
I'll hear that ugly, coarse, and violent voice,
and then he grabs me from behind, and then he pulls me back


But it was long ago, and it was far away
Oh God, it seems so very far,
and if life is just a highway, then the soul is just a car


And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
They are


(instrumental solo)


There was a beauty living on the edge of town
She always put the top up and the hammer down,
and she taught me everything I'll ever know,
about the mystery and the muscle of love


The stars would glimmer and the moon would glow
I'm in the back seat with my Julie like Romeo
And the signs along the highway all said
Caution! Kids at play!


Those were the rights of spring and we did everything;
There was salvation every night
We got dreams reborn and our upholstery torn,
but everything we tried was right


She used her body just like a bandage
She use my body just like a wound
I'll probably never know where she disappeared,
but I can see rising up out of the back seat now,
just like an angel rising out of a tomb


But it was long ago, and it was far away
Oh God, it seems so very far,
and if life is just a highway, then the soul is just a car


And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are

Bonfires dot the rolling hillsides
Figures dance around and around
To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness
Moving to the pagan sound.

Somewhere in a hidden memory
Images float before my eyes
Of fragrant nights of straw and of bonfires
And dancing till the next sunrise.

I can see lights in the distance
Trembling in the dark cloak of night
Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing
A waltz on ALL SOULS NIGHT.

Figures of cornstalks bend in the shadows
Held up tall as the flames leap high
The green knight holds the holly bush
To mark where the old year passes by.

I can see lights in the distance
Trembling in the dark cloak of night
Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing
A waltz on ALL SOULS NIGHT.

Bonfires dot the rolling hillsides
Figures dance around and around
To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness
Moving to the pagan sound.

Standing on the bridge that crosses
The river that goes out to the sea
The wind is full of a thousand voices
They pass by the bridge and me.

I can see lights in the distance
Trembling in the dark cloak of night
Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing
A waltz on ALL SOULS NIGHT.

Outside the winter zephyr,
When fables of sabers were strong.
"...For thou hast said in our hearts..."
"...From Celtic flames, we are born."
The Sky Clad flocks a carnal war,
So invoke their heartless cries.
"Crom Croich's at our side."
"He's made of gold, so shall we ride?"

From the mounts of Antrim,
Towards the glens of Visnech.
"...For thou has said in our hearts..."
"...From Celtic flames, we are born."
Any who live alone,
Long onlt for mercy.
"Proud, young men will die!"
"Fir Bolg rides the half light!"

"WE HAVE ARRIVED AT THE STONE OF DESTINY (Tara)."
"WE HAVE REACHED THE PERDITION OF IBID (Cythraul)."

"We comprehend the Lar of the Folk."
"Chuaigh muid ar na canai areir."
"We solemnize the last of the Druids."
"Chuaigh muid ar na canai areir."

FALIAS!

The passage is clear when Epona rides
She reaps through cloudbursts of rain that sighs
The course is laid when Sky Clad rides
Ler is watching -
"Proud, young men will die!"

"We apprehend these thoughts: {Fea Nemon}."
"Chuaigh muid ar na canai areir."
"We shall live forever in the land of Inisfail."

I wanna fill my cup - I wanna drink it up.

I don't wanna live forever
I just wanna go for broke
gonna ride thru any kind of weather
go out in a cloud of smoke
I don't wanna live - don't wanna live forever
don't wanna live - don't wanna live forever

All I need is a good excuse
you can cut my reins and turn me loose
I'm gonna pull my weight I'm gonna push my luck
I'm gonna go down fightin' when my time is up
you know I don't care - I'm gonna get my share.

You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we can make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Anyplace is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
Me myself i got nothing to prove

You got a fast car
I got a plan to get us out of here
I been working at the convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
We won't have to drive too far
Just across the border and into the city
You and i could both get jobs
Finally see what it means to be living

See my old man's got a problem
Lives with a bottle that's the way it is
He says his body's too old for working
Body's too young for looking like his
Mama went off and left him
Wanted more from life than he could give
I said somebody's got to take care of him
I quit school that's what i did
What i did, what i did

You got a fast car
Is it fast enough that we can fly away
We gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or live and die this way

So remember when we're driving, driving in your car
The speed so fast felt like i was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And i had a feeling that i belonged
And i had a feeling i could be someone, be someone, be someone

You got a fast car
We go cruising, entertain ourselves
You still ain't got a job
And i work in a market in the checkout line
I know things will get better
You'll find work and i'll get promoted
We'll move out of the shelter
Buy a big house and live in the suburbs

So remember when we're driving, driving in your car
The speed so fast felt like i was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And i had a feeling that i belonged
And i had a feeling i could be someone, be someone, be someone

You got a fast car
I got a job pays all our bills
Stay out drinking late at the bar
See more of your friends than you do of your kids
I'd always hoped for better
Thought we'd together you and me would find it
I got no plans i ain't going nowhere
Take your fast car and keep on driving

You got a fast car
Is it fast enough so you can fly away
You gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or live and die this way

So remember when we're driving, driving in your car
The speed so fast felt like i was drunk

For a thousand lonely years

Now your scented touch brings me
Back to the enchanted
All shadows fade away,
The gypsy is complete

Someone is walking beside me
Someone is waiting till i say yes i do
Someone is living inside me
Giving me all that i need and i need you

Someone to cry on my shoulder
I just want to stay here forever


From the secret pool,
Did i stare at your reflection
Let the water wash away all the battle
From my soul
For the bride of spring,
Do i swear to your protection
Today will be the day that never shall
Grow old

Someone is walking beside me
Someone is waiting till i say yes i do
Someone is living inside me
Giving me all that i need and i need you

Silence broken and the blackbird is free
Only your voice can i hear, speak to me

Someone is walking beside me
Someone is waiting till i say yes i do
Someone is living inside me
Giving me all that i need and i need you

There used to be a greying tower alone on the sea.
You became the light on the dark side of me.
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill.

But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and,
The light that you shine can be seen.

Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
...kiss from a rose on the grey.

Ooh,
The more I get of you,
Ooh...................

Stranger it feels, yeah.
And now that your rose is is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the grey.

There is so much a man can tell you,
..there....................woa...
So much he can say.
there's so much inside.

You remain,
you.......

My power, my pleasure, my pain, baby
To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny.. yeah.
Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby?

But did you know,

My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen.

While strolling thru a lovely garden
As day was drawing to a close...
My eyes be-held a tragic story
I saw a teardrop on a rose.

It should have been a tear of gladness
But deep inside the sorrow shows
A trusting heart had just been broken

I saw a teardrop on a rose.

A sobbing tear that follows parting
Holds all the pain that sorrow knows
A false goodbye a life is shattered
There lies a story on a rose.

The tear will dry the rose will wither
When spring and winter comes and goes
I loved, i lost, my story ended
With just a teardrop on a rose.

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in vain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I dream of fire
Those dreams that tie two hearts that will never die
And near the flames
The shadows play in the shape of the man's desire

This desert rose
Whose shadow bears the secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume that would torture you more than this

And now she turns
This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams
This fire burns
I realize that nothing's as it seems

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in vain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I dream of rain
I lift my gaze to empty skies above
I close my eyes
The rare perfume is the sweet intoxication of love

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in vain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

Sweet desert rose
Whose shadow bears the secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume that would torture you more than this

Sweet desert rose
This memory of hidden hearts and souls
This desert flower
This rare perfurme is the sweet intoxication of love

Everytime that I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face gettin' clearer
The past is gone
It went by like dust to dawn
Isn't that the way
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay

I know what nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody's sin
You got to lose to know how to win

Half my life is in books' written pages
Live and learn from fools and from sages
You know it's true
All the things come back to you

Sing with me, sing for the years
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tears
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good lord will take you away

Sing with me, sing for the years
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tears
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good lord will take you away

Dream on, dream on
Dream yourself a dream come true
Dream on, dream on
Dream until your dream come true
Dream on, dream on, dream on...

Sing with me, sing for the years
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tears
Sing with me, if it's just for today

They made up their minds
And they started packing
They left before the sun came up that day
An exit to eternal summer slacking
But where were they going without ever
Knowing the way?

They drank up the wine
And they got to talking
They now had more important things to say
And when the car broke down they started walking
Where were they going without ever
Knowing the way?

Anyone can see the road that they walk on
Is paved in gold
And it's always summer
They'll never get cold
They'll never get hungry
They'll never get old and grey
You can see their shadows wandering off somewhere
They won't make it home
But they really don't care
They wanted the highway
They're happier there today, today

Their children woke up
And they couldn't find them
They left before the sun came up that day
They just drove off and left it all behind 'em
But where were they going without ever
Knowing the way?

I'm sittin' in the railway station
Got a ticket for my destination
On a tour of one night stands
My suitcase and guitar in hand
And every stop is neatly planned
For a poet and a one man band

Homeward bound
I wish i was
Homeward bound
Home, where my thought's escaping
Home, where my music's playing
Home, where my love lies waiting
Silently for me

Everyday's an endless stream
Of cigarettes and magazines
And each town looks the same to me
The movies and the factories
And every stranger's face i see
Reminds me that i long to be

Homeward bound
I wish i was
Homeward bound
Home, where my thought's escaping
Home, where my music's playing
Home, where my love lies waiting
Silently for me

Tonight i'll sing my songs again
I'll play the game and pretend
But all my words come back to me
In shades of mediocrity
Like emptyness in harmony
I need someone to comfort me

Homeward bound
I wish i was
Homeward bound
Home, where my thought's escaping
Home, where my music's playing
Home, where my love lies waiting
Silently for me
Silently for me

Just about a year ago, I set out on the road,
Seeking my fame and fortune, looking for a pot of gold.
Things got bad, and things got worse, I guess you will know the tune.
Oh ! Lord, Stuck in Lodi again.
Rode in on the Greyhound, I'll be walking out if I go.
I was just passing through, must be seven months or more.
Ran out of time and money, looks like they took my friends.
Oh ! Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again.

The man from the magazine said I was on my way.
Somewhere I lost connections, ran out of songs to play.
I came into town, a one night stand, looks like my plans fell through
Oh ! Lord, Stuck in Lodi again.
Mmmm...

If I only had a dollar, for ev'ry song I've sung.
And ev'ry time I've had to play while people sat there drunk.
You know, I'd catch the next train back to where I live.
Oh ! Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again.
Oh ! Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again.

I got the feeling something ain't right
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair
And I'm wondering if I'll get down the stairs
Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you
Stuck in the middle with you

Well, I'm stuck in the middle with you
And I'm wondering what is I should do
It's so hard to wipe this smile from my face
Lose control and I'm all over the place
Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right
Here I am, stuck in the middle with you

Well, you started out with nothing
And you're proud you're a self-made man
And your friends they all come crawling
Slap you on the back and say, "Please, please"

On a long and lonesome highway east of Omaha
You can hear the engine moanin' out his one long one note song
You can think about the woman or the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will be wandering the way they always do
When you're ridin' sixteen hours and there's nothin' much to do
And you don't feel much like ridin', you just wish the trip was through

Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
Turn the page

Well you walk into a restaurant, strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you as you're shakin' off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you but you just want to explode
Most times you can't hear them talk, other times you can
All the same old cliché's, "Is that a woman or a man?"
And you always seem outnumbered, you don't dare make a stand

Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
Turn the page

Out there in the spotlight you're a million miles away
Every ounce of energy you try to give away
As the sweat pours out your body like the music that you play
Later in the evening as you lie awake in bed
With the echoes of the amplifiers ringin' in your head
You smoke the day's last cigarette, rememberin' what she said

Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
Turn the page

Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
There I go

But i think that it might look better if i told you now goodbye

I'm back on the road again, it's time i leave you now
And maybe i'll see you next time, that i'm around
Until then i hope your happy baby and good times come your way

I'm back on the road again, i'm on my way

Well i've loved you since the day i met you and i'll love you till the day i die

And I raise my weary head
I got an old coat for a pillow
And the earth was last night's bed

I don't know where I'm going
Only god knows where I've been
I'm a devil on the run
A six gun lover
A candle in the wind

When you're brought into this world
They say you're born in sin
Well at least they gave me something
I didn't have to steal or have to win

Well they tell me that i'm wanted
Yeah i'm a wanted man
I'm colt in your stable
I'm what cain was to abel
Mister catch me if you can

I'm going down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
I'm going down in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
I'm no one's son
Call me young gun

You ask about my consience
And I offer you my soul
You ask if I'll grow to be a wise man
Well I ask if I'll grow old

You ask me if I known love
And what it's like to sing songs in the rain
Well,I've seen love come
And I've seen it shot down
I've seen it die in vain

Shot down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
'cause I'm going down in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
I'm the devil's son
Call me young gun

Each night I go to bed
I pray the lord my soul to keep
No I ain't looking for forgiveness
But before I'm six foot deep
Lord,I got to ask a favor
And I'll hope you'll understand
'cause I've lived life to the fullest
Let the boy die like a man

Staring down the bullet
Let me make my final stand

Shot down in a blaze of glory
Take me now but know the truth
I'm going out in a blaze of glory
Lord I never drew first
But I drew first blood
And I'm no one's son
Call me young gun

Everyday it seems we're wasting away
Another place where the faces are so cold
I'd drive all night just to get back home

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse i ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive

Sometimes i sleep, sometimes it's not for days
And the people i meet always go their separate ways
Sometimes you tell the day
By the bottle that you drink
And times when you're all alone all you do is think

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse i ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive

I walk these streets, a loaded six string on my back
I play for keeps, 'cause i might not make it back
I been everywhere, still i'm standing tall
I've seen a million faces an i've rocked them all

I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse i ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
I'm a cowboy, i got the night on my side
I'm wanted dead or alive

I grew up a-dreamin' of bein' a cowboy,
and Lovin' the cowboy ways.
Pursuin' the life of my high-ridin' heroes,
I burned up my childhood days.
I learned of all the rules of the modern-day drifter,
Don't you hold on to nothin' too long.
Just take what you need from the ladies, then leave them,
With the words of a sad country song.
My heroes have always been cowboys.
And they still are, it seems.
Sadly, in search of, but one step in back of,
Themselves and their slow-movin' dreams.

Cowboys are special with their own brand of misery,
From being alone too long.
You could die from the cold in the arms of a nightmare,
Knowin' well that your best days are gone.
Pickin' up hookers instead of my pen,
I let the words of my years fade away.
Old worn-out saddles, and 'old worn-out memories,
With no one and no place to stay.

My heroes have always been cowboys.
And they still are, it seems.
Sadly, in search of, but one step in back of,
Themselves and their slow-movin' dreams.

You've been out ridin fences for so long now,
Oh and you're a hard one, but I know that you've got your reasons,
The things that are pleasin you can hurt you somehow.

Don't you draw the queen of diamonds boy, she'll beat you if she's able.
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet.
Now it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon your table,
But you only want the ones you can't get.

Desperado, you ain't gettin no younger,
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin you home,
And freedom, oh freedom, well that's just some people talkin.
Your prison is walking through this world all alone.

Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime,
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine,
It's hard to tell the nighttime from the day.
And you're losin all your highs and lows,
Ain't it funny how the feelin goes away?

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses,
Come down from your fences- open the gates.
It may be rainin, but there's a rainbow above you.

Cowboys ain't easy to love and they're harder to hold.
They'd rather give you a song than diamonds or gold.
Lonestar belt buckles and old faded levis,
And each night begins a new day.
If you don't understand him, an' he don't die young,
He'll prob'ly just ride away.

Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys.
Don't let 'em pick guitars or drive them old trucks.
Let 'em be doctors and lawyers and such.
Mamas don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys.
'Cos they'll never stay home and they're always alone.
Even with someone they love.

Cowboys like smokey old pool rooms and clear mountain mornings,
Little warm puppies and children and girls of the night.
Them that don't know him won't like him and them that do,
Sometimes won't know how to take him.
He ain't wrong, he's just different but his pride won't let him,
Do things to make you think he's right.

Send your parents out of the room this is a kid’s song.


Life’s gonna suck when you grow up,
When you grow up, when you grow up
Life’s gonna suck when you grow up,
It sucks pretty bad right now.


Hey! If you know the words, Sing along!

You’re gonna hafta mow the lawn,
Do the dishes, make your bed.
You’re gonna hafta go to school until you’re seven-teen.


It’s gonna seem about three times as long as that

You might have to go to war, shoot a gun, kill a nun.
You might have to go to war, when you get out of school.


Hey cheer up kids, it gets a lot worse.

You’re gonna hafta deal with stress
Deal with stress, deal with stress.
You’re gonna be a giant mess
When you get back from the war.

Santa Clause does not exist, and there’s no Easter Bunny,
You’ll find out when you grow up, that Big Bird isn’t funny.


funny, funny, hahahahaha!

Life’s gonna suck when you grow up,
When you grow up, when you grow up
Life’s gonna suck when you grow up,
It sucks pretty bad right now.

You’re gonna end up smoking crack, on your back, face the fact.
You’re gonna end up hooked on smack, and then you’re gonna die.

And then you’re gonna die-ie-ie-ie-ie.


Something for the kids,
Well, I think I smell a lawsuit in that one, What do you think?

They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom.
For trying to change the system from within.

First we take Manhattan, <chuckles mercilessly> Then we take Berlin!

<The music takes an upward, maddening, and unstable quality>

I'd really like to live beside you, baby...
I love your body and your spirit and your clothes...

But you see that line there moving through the station?
I told you, I told you, I told you, ... <guilty smile>
I was one of those.

but now you're worried that I just might win.

You know the way to stop me,
A-hahaha... <smiles kindly>
But you don't have the discipline.

How many nights have I prayed for this?
To let my works begin?

First we take Manhattan, <devious smie>
Then we take Berlin!

I don't like your fashion business mister!
And I don't like these drugs that keep you thin!

I don't like what happened to my sister!!!
First we take Manhattan! Then we take Berlin !!!

<manic laughter>

And I thank you for those items that you sent me...
<bursts out laughing>
The monkey ... and the plywood violin.

<smiles kindly>

I practiced every night.

And now I'm ready.

First we take Manhattan,
then we take Berlin

<Tortured cry> I am guided...

<snaps back to rational spoken word>
Ah remember me?
I used to live for music.

Remember me?
I brought your groceries in.

Well it's Father's Day.

Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over
And it seems as though the writing’s on the wall
Superstar you’ve finally made it
But once your picture becomes tainted
It’s what they call the rise & fall

I always said that I was gonna make it
Now it’s plain for everyone to see
But this game I’m in don’t take no prisoners
Just casualties
I know that everything is gonna change
Even the friends I knew before may go
But this dream is the life I’ve been searching for
Started believing that I was the greatest
My life was never gonna be the same
‘cos with the money came a different status
That’s when things changed
Now I’m too concerned with all the things I own
Blinded by all the pretty girls I see
I’m beginning to loose my integrity

Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over
And it seems as though the writing’s on the wall
Superstar you’ve finally made it
But once your picture becomes tainted
It’s what they call the rise & fall

I never used to be a troublemaker
Now I don’t even wanna please the fans
No autographs, no interviews, no pictures
Endless demands
Gave in to vices that were clearly wrong
The types that seemed to make me feel so right
But some things you may find can take over your life
Burnt all my bridges now I’ve run out of places
And there’s nowhere left for me to turn
Been caught in compromising situations
I should have learned
From all those times I didn’t walk away
When I knew that it was best to go
Is it too late to show you the shape of my heart?

Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over
And it seems as though the writing’s on the wall
Superstar you’ve finally made it
But once your picture becomes tainted
It’s what they call the rise & fall

Now I know I’ve made mistakes
You think I don’t care
But you don’t realise what this means to me
So let me have just one more chance
I’m not the man I used to be
Used to be

Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over

<Remedy shakes his head as he takes the stage>

<He reads from a slip of paper in his hand>

And now in the interest of equal time for equal view points.. i will perform a song requested of me...

<He seems to fume for just a moment, then relaxes, collects his thoughts and begins singing softly...>


Many's the time I've been mistaken.
And many times confused.
Yes, and I’ve often felt forsaken.
And certainly misused…

Oh, oh, oh, oh…
But I'm all right, I'm all right, it’s all right.

I'm just …weary ... to my bones.

Still, you don't expect me to be…
Bright and bon vivant.
So far away from home?
So far … away from home.

And I don't know a soul who's not been battered.
I don't have a friend who feels at ease.
I don't know a dream that's not been shattered
or driven to its knees.

But it's all right, it's all right, I’m all right.
We've lived so well, for so long…


Still…
When I think of the road we're traveling on,
I wonder what … went wrong…

I can't help it, I wonder … What went wrong?


And I dreamed I was dying.

And I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly…
And looking back down at me …
I smiled reassuringly.

And I dreamed I was flying.

And high up above my eyes could clearly see…
The Statue of Liberty …
Sailing away to sea…

When I dreamed I was flying…

We’d come on the ship they call the Mayflower.
We’ve come on the ship that sailed the moon.
We come in the age's most uncertain hour.
And sing an American tune.

But it's all right, it's all right, We're all right.
You can't be forever blessed.

Still … tomorrow's going to be another working day…
And … I'm trying to get some rest.
That's all I'm trying …

Is to get some rest.

It's down to this
I've got to make this life make sense
Can anyone do what I've done
I missed life
I missed the colours of the world
Can anyone go where I am

'Cause now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down, away from the sun again
Away from the sun again

I'm over this
I'm tired of living in the dark
Can anyone see me down here
The feeling's gone
There's nothing left to lift me up
Back into the world I've known

'Cause now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down, away from the sun
That shines the life away from me
To find my way back into the arms
That care about the ones like me
I'm so far down, away from the sun again

It's down to this
I've got to make this life make sense
And now I can't do what I've done

And now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines the life away from me

'Cause now again I've found myself
So far down, away from the sun
That shines into the darkest place
I'm so far down, away from the sun
That shines the life away from me
To find my way back into the arms
That care about the ones like me
I'm so far down, away from the sun again

<Remedy ponders as he picks up the mic>

<The music begins>

I can show you the world...
Shining, shimmering, splendid...

Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?

I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride...

A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming

A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I'm way up here
It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you!

Now I'm in a whole new world with you!

Unbelievable sights,
Indescribable feelings...
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky!

A whole new world...
Don't you dare close your eyes!

A hundred thousand things to see!

Hold your breath - it gets better!

I'm like a shooting star,
I've come so far...
I can't go back to where I used to be!

A whole new world
Every turn a surprise!
With new horizons to pursue
Every moment red-lettered!

I'll chase them anywhere!
There's time to spare!
Let me share this whole new world with you!

A whole new world,
That's where we'll be!
A thrilling chase,
A wondrous place...

For you...
And me...

There you see her
Sitting there across the way
She don't got a lot to say
But there's something about her
And you don't know why
But you're dying to try
You wanna kiss the girl

Yes, you want her
Look at her, you know you do
Possible she wants you too
There is one way to ask her
It don't take a word
Not a single word
Go on and kiss the girl

Sha la la la la la
My oh my
Look like the boy too shy
Ain't gonna kiss the girl
Sha la la la la la
Ain't that sad?
Ain't it a shame?
Too bad, he gonna miss the girl

Now's your moment
Floating in a blue lagoon
Boy you better do it soon
No time will be better
She don't say a word
And she won't say a word
Until you kiss the girl

Sha la la la la la
Don't be scared
You got the mood prepared
Go on and kiss the girl
Sha la la la la la
Don't stop now
Don't try to hide it how
You want to kiss the girl
Sha la la la la la
Float along
And listen to the song
The song say kiss the girl
Sha la la la la
The music play
Do what the music say
You got to kiss the girl
You've got to kiss the girl
You wanna kiss the girl
You've gotta kiss the girl
Go on and kiss the girl

I was lost till you were found
But I never knew how far down
I was falling
Before I reached the bottom


I was cold and you were fire
And I never knew how the pyre
Could be burning
On the edge of the ice field


And now the chilly Californian wind
Is blowing down our bodies again
And we're sinking deeper and deeper
In the chilly Californian sand
Oh I know you belong inside my aching heart
And can't you see my faded Levis bursting apart
And don't you here me crying
'Oh Babe, don't go'
And don't you hear me screaming
'How was I to know'


I'm in the middle of nowhere
Near the end of the line
But there's a border to somewhere waiting
And there's a tankful of time
Oh give me just another moment
To see the light of the day
And take me to another land
Where I don't have to stay
And I'm gonna need somebody
To make me feel like you do
And I will receive somebody
With open arms, open eyes
Open up the sky and let the planet
That I love shine through


For crying out loud
You know I love you


I was damned and you were saved
And I never knew how enslaved
I was kneeling
In the chains of my master


I could laugh but you could cry
And I never knew just how high
I was flying
Ah with you right above me


And now the chilly Californian wind
Is blowing down our bodies again
And we're sinking deeper and deeper
In the chilly Californian sand
Oh I know you belong inside my aching heart
And can't you see my faded Levis bursting apart
And don't you here me crying
'Oh Babe, don't go'
And don't you hear me screaming
'How was I to know'

With open arms, open eyes
Open up the sky and let the planet
That I love shine through


For crying out loud
You know I love you


For taking in the rain when I'm feeling so dry
For giving me the answers when I'm asking you why
My oh my, for that I thank you
For taking in the sun when I'm feeling so cold
For giving me a child when my body is old
Don't you know for that I need you


For coming to my room when you know I'm alone
For finding me a highway and for driving me home
For that I serve you


For pulling me away when I'm starting to fall
For revving me up when I'm starting to stall
And all in all for that I want you


For taking and for giving and for playing the game
For praying for my future in the days that remain
Oh Lord for that I hold you


Ah but most of all
For crying out loud
For that I love you
When you're crying out loud
You know I love you

And I never really sleep anymore
And I always get those dangerous dreams
And I never get a minute of peace
And I gotta wonder what it means
And I gotta wonder what it means




Maybe it's nothing, and I'm under the weather
Maybe it's just one of those bugs going 'round
Maybe I'm under a spell and it's magic
Maybe there's a witch doctor with an office in town




Is this a blessing or is it a curse?
Does it get any better? Can it get any worse?
Will it go on forever? Is it over tonight?
Does it come with the darkness? Does it bring out the light?
Is it richer than diamonds or just a little cheaper than spit?




I don't know what it is, but it just won't quit
I don't know what it is, but it just won't quit
I don't know what it is, but it just won't quit
I don't know what it is, but it just won't quit




And there used to be such an easy way of living
And there used to be every hope in the world
And I used to get everything that I went after
But there never used to be this girl
But there never used to be this girl




Maybe I'm crazy, and I'm losing my senses
Maybe I'm possessed by a spirit or such
Maybe I'm desp'rate and I've got no defences
Can you get me a prescription for that one perfect touch




Is this a blessing or is it a curse?
Does it get any better? Can it get any worse?
Will it go on forever? Is it over tonight?
Does it come with the darkness? Does it bring out the light?
It's a stairway to heaven or a subway going down the pits




I don't know what it is, but it just won't quit
I don't know what it is, but it just won't quit
I don't know what it is, but it just won't quit
I don't know what it is, but it just won't quit




(instrumental bridge)




Is this a blessing or is it a curse?
Does it get any better? Can it get any worse?
Will it go on forever? Is it over tonight?
Does it come with the darkness? Does it bring out the light?
Is it richer than diamonds or just a little cheaper than spit?




I don't know what it is, but it just won't quit

I don't know what it is, but it just won't quit
I don't know what it is, but it just won't quit
I don't know what it is, but it just won't quit
I don't know what it is, but it just won't quit




There was a time when nothing ever really mattered
There was a time when there was nothing I didn't know
There was a time when I knew just what I was living for
There was a time and the time was so long ago
There was a time and the time was so long ago
And I never really sleep anymore...

*mutters* Damn you gentlemen who brought Disney into this....

Oh, the power to be strong
And the wisdom to be wise
All these things will
come to you in time
On this journey that you're making
There'll be answers that you'll seek
And it's you who'll climb the mountain
It's you who'll reach the peak

Son of Man, look to the sky
Lift your spirit, set it free
Some day you'll walk tall with pride
Son of Man, a man in time you'll be

Though there's no one there to guide you
No one to take your hand
But with faith and understanding
You will journey from boy to man

Son of Man, look to the sky
Lift your spirit, set it free
Some day you'll walk tall with pride
Son of Man, a man in time you'll be

In learning you will teach
And in teaching you will learn
You'll find your place beside the
ones you love
Oh, and all the things you dreamed of
The visions that you saw
Well, the time is drawing near now
It's yours to claim it all

Son of Man, look to the sky
Lift your spirit, set it free
Some day you'll walk tall with pride
Son of Man, a man in time you'll be

Son of Man
Son of Man's a man for all to see

It's astounding...
Time is fleeting...
Madness takes its toll...
But listen closely...

Not for very much longer...

I've got to keep control...

I remember ...doing the Time Warp
Drinking those moments when (How do you drink a moment? With an hour glass!)

The blackness would hit me!!!

And the void would be calling!!!

Let's do the Time Warp again!
Let's do the Time Warp again!


It's just a jump to the left.

And then a step to the ri-hi-i-ight

With your hands on your hips! (Or somebode elses!)

You bring your knees in tight!

But it's the pelvic thrust <slow pelvic grind>
That really drives you ins-a-a-ane!

Let's do the Time Warp again!
Let's do the Time Warp again!

It's so dreamy...
Oh, fantasy free me...
So you can't see me...
No, not at all.

In another dimension..
With voyeuristic intention...
Well secluded ... I see all!


With a bit of a mind flip...

You're into the time slip...

And nothing ... can ever be the same.

You're spaced out on sensation,

Like you're under sedation!

Let's do the Time Warp again! <Kick, kick, kick!>
Let's do the Time Warp again!

Well I was walking down the street...
Just a having a think...
When a snake of a girl gave me an evil wink.
She shook-a me up, she took me by surprise
She had a pick up truck and the devil's eyes!

She stared at me and I felt a change! <Bamf!>
Time meant nothing, never would again!

Let's do the Time Warp again!
Let's do the Time Warp again!

...

It's just a jump to the left!

And then a step to the ri-hi-ight

With your hands on your hips! (OR your mods!)

You bring your knees in tight <purrs>
But it's the pelvic thrust <steady gaze and pelvic thrusts>
That really drives you insane <thrust, thrust, thrust!>

Let's do the Time Warp again!
Let's do the Time Warp again!

The better part of me

I'm more than a bird¡­I'm more than a plane...

Only a man in a funny red sheet,
Looking for special things inside of me...

Hmmm, time for just a fun song to sing I think....

I hate the world today
You're so good to me
I know but I can't change
tried to tell you but you look at me like maybe I'm an angel
underneath
innocent and sweet
Yesterday I cried
You must have been relieved to see the softer side
I can understand how you'd be so confused
I don't envy you
I'm a little bit of everything
all rolled into one

I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your health, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way

So take me as I am
This may mean you'll have to be a stronger man
Rest assured that when I start to make you nervous
and I'm going to extremes
tomorrow I will change
and today won't mean a thing

I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your health, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way

Just when you think you've got me figured out
the season's already changing
I think it's cool you do what you do
and don't try to save me

I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your health, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way

I'm a bitch, I'm a tease
I'm a goddess on my knees
when you hurt, when you suffer
I'm your angel undercover
I've been numbed, I'm revived
can't say I'm not alive
You know I wouldn't want it any other way

It’s easier to run
Replacing this pain with something numb
It’s so much easier to go
Than face all this pain here all alone

Something has been taken
From deep inside of me
A secret I’ve kept locked away
No one can ever see
Wounds so deep they never show
They never go away
Like moving pictures in my head
For years and years they’ve played

If I could change I would
Take back the pain I would
Retrace every wrong move that I made I would
If I could take all the shame to the grave I would

Sometimes I remember
The darkness of my past
Bringing back these memories
I wish I didn’t have
Sometimes I think of letting go
And never looking back
And never moving forward so
There would never bee a past

Just washing it aside
All of the helplessness inside
Pretending I don’t feel misplaced
Is so much simpler than change

It’s easier to run replacing this pain with something numb
It’s so much easier to go
Than face all this pain here all alone

And even though the moment passed me by
I still can't turn away
Cuz all the dreams you never thought you'd lose
Got tossed along the way
And letters that you never meant to send
Got lost or thrown away

And now we're grown up orphans
And never knew their names
We don't belong to no one
That's a shame
But you could hide beside me
Maybe for a while
And I won't tell no one your name
And I won't tell 'em your name

And scars are souvenirs you never lose
The past is never far
Did you lose yourself somewhere out there?
Did you get to be a star?
And don't it make you sad to know that life
Is more than who we are

We grew up way too fast
And now there's nothing to believe
And reruns all become our history
A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio
And I won't tell no one your name
And I won't tell 'em your name
I won't tell em' your name
Oooh, oooh, oooh
I won't tell em' your name
Ow!

I think about you all the time
But I don't need the same
It's lonely where you are
Come back down
And I won't tell 'em your name

I watch how the
Moon sits in the sky in the dark night
Shining with the light from the sun
The sun doesn't give life to the moon to assuming
The moon's going to owe it one
It makes me think of how you act to me

You do
Favors and then rapidly You just
Turn around and start asking me about
Things you want back from me
I'm sick of the tension sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed -
While I find a place to rest
I want to be in another place
I hate when you say you don't understand

[You'll see it's not meant to be]

I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head
Maybe someday I'll be just like you and
Step on people like you do and Run
Away the people I thought I knew
I remember back then who you were
You used to be calm used to be strong
Used to be generous but you should've known That you'd
Wear out your welcome now you see
How quiet it is all alone

I'm so

Sick of the tension sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed -
While I find a place to rest

I'm so

Sick of the tension sick of the hunger
Sick of you acting like I owe you this

I know everyone has that one special moron that near and dear to their preferred weapons.

That one person that makes you grind your teeth when they open their mouth.

Yeah, you know the one.

You must die I alone am best!

I hope ya flip some guy the bird
He cuts you off and you're forced to swerve
In front of the Beatles' tour bus
A Bookmobile and a Mack truck
Hauling hazardous biological waste
The light turns red you have no brakes
And "Hard Copy" gets it all on tape
So you can see the look on your face

Die Die Die Die Die Die Die
Die Die Die Die Die Die Die

I hope your Pinto begins to spin
Takes out a disabled Vietnam Veteran
Mows down a Nobel Peace Prize Winner
And maybe some orphans having Christmas dinner
Perhaps even the British Royal Family
And the Rabbi that's clutching the bottle-fed puppy
And we can't forget the newlyweds
And those Jerry's Kids are as good as dead

I hope this helps to emphasize
I hope this helps to clarify
I hope you die

I hope your cellmate thinks he's God
But C.N.N. refer to him as "Bowling Ball Bag Bob"
Serving time again for abuse of a corpse
Only this time the victim's a Clydesdale horse
While he masturbates to photos of livestock
He does the "Silence of the Lambs" dance to Christian Rock
Eats feces and quotes from "Deliverance"
And fights with his imaginary playmate Vince

Die Die Die Die Die Die Die
Die Die Die Die Die Die Die

I hope he grins like Jack Nicholson
And forces you to play a game called "Balls On Chin"
And whatever happens next is all a blur
But you remember "fist" can be a verb
And when you finally regain consciousness
You're bound and gagged in a wedding dress
And the prison guard looks the other way
`Cause he's the guy ya flipped the bird the other day

I hope this helps to emphasize
I hope this helps to clarify
I hope you die

I hope you die

"It's Me Again, Margaret" by Ray Stevens
----------------------------------------

Well, there once was a feller named Willard McVane
And he only had just one thought on his brain
Every evening 'round midnight he'd sneak off alone
And call the same lady on a pay telephone

"It's me again, Margaret...
[very evil laughter]
are you there, Margaret?
I know... I know it's you, Margaret...
You don't know me, Margaret, but I know you."

Well, this upset the lady and it gave her the blues
So she called up the police, said "What do I do?"
The Chief of Detectives came round to her home
And eavesdropped upon them on her upstairs phone

"It's me again, Margaret...
[very evil laughter]
are you naked?
[more very evil laughter]"

Well, they called up Ma Bell and they traced him on down
To a funky old phone booth on the outskirts of town
It was there that the Vice Squad with their field glasses read
The lips of that amorous man as he said

"It's me again, Margaret...
[very evil laughter]
hello? Is this Margaret?
Bet you can't guess what I'm doing..."

Well, they cuffed him and they dragged him to the jailhouse downtown
And they allowed him one phone call 'fore the jailer came round
Well, he wet his chapped lips and he cleared his young throat
And he dialed up the number and softly he spoke

"It's me again, Margaret...
[very evil laughter]
They got me, Margaret.
You won't miss me, Margaret, but I'll miss you... hoo hoo
[degenerates into even more evil laughter]
And when I get out I'll come over and we'll have a party
and I'll bring a live chicken.. and some peach preserves!
Oh, we'll have a real good time..."

I've been waiting for a long time
For this moment to come
I'm destined
For anything...at all
Downtown lights will be shining
On me like a diamond
Ring out under the midnight hour
No one can touch me now
And I can't turn my back
It's too late ready or not at all

I'm so much closer than
I have ever known...
Wake up

Dawning of a new era
Calling...don't let it catch you falling
Ready or not at all
So close enough to taste it
Alomost...I can embrace this
Feeling....on the tip of my tongue

I'm so much closer than
I have ever known...
Wake up
Better thank your lucks stars....

I've been waiting for a long time
For this moment to come

Dumbstruck
Colour me stupid
Good luck

Wake up

What's this? What's this?
There's color everywhere
What's this?
There's white things in the air
What's this?
I can't believe my eyes
I must be dreaming
Wake up, Jack, this isn't fair
What's this?

What's this? What's this?
There's something very wrong
What's this?
There's people singing songs

What's this?
The streets are lined with
Little creatures laughing
Everybody seems so happy
Have I possibly gone daffy?
What is this?
What's this?

There are children throwing snowballs here
Instead of throwing heads
They're busy building toys
And absolutely no one's dead

There's frost on every window
Oh, I can't believe my eyes
And in my bones I feel the warnth
That's coming from inside

Oh, look
What's this?
They're hanging mistletoe, they kiss
Why that looks so unique, inspired
They're gathering around to hear a story
Roasting chestnuts on a fire
What's this?
What's this?

In here they've got a little tree, how queer
And who would ever think
And why?

They're covering it with tiny little things
They've got electric lights on strings
And there's a smile on everyone
So, now, correct me if I'm wrong
This looks like fun
This looks like fun
Oh, could it be I got my wish?
What's this?

Oh my, what now?
The children are asleep
But look, there's nothing underneath
No ghouls, no witches here to scream and scare them
Oe ensnare them, only little cozy things
Secure inside their dremaland
What's this?

The monsters are all missing
And the nightmares can't be found
And in their place there seems to be
Good feeling all around

Instead of screams, I swear
I can hear music in the air
The smell of cakes and pies
IS absolutely everywhere

The sights, the sounds
They're eveywhere and all around
I've never felt so good before
Thsi empty place inside of me is filling up
I simply cannot get enough

I want it, oh, I want it
Oh, I want it for my own
I've got to know
I've got to know
What is this place that I have found?
What is this?
Christmas Town, hmm...

If you think this might be about you... <eyebrow waggle> Lets see what we can do about making that true... <purrs>


Oh, oh, oh
For the longest time
Oh, oh, oh
For the longest time

If you said goodbye to me tonight
There would still be music left to write

What else could I do
I'm so inspired by you

That hasn't happened for the longest time

Once I thought my innocence was gone
Now I know that happiness goes on

That's where you found me
When you put your arms around me

I haven't been there for the longest time


Oh, oh, oh
For the longest time
Oh, oh, oh
For the longest

I'm that voice you're hearing in the hall
And the greatest miracle of all

Is how I need you
And how you needed me too

That hasn't happened for the longest time


Maybe this won't last very long
But you feel so right
And I could be wrong

Maybe I've been hoping too hard

But I've gone this far

And it's more than I hoped for


Who knows how much further we'll go on
I'll bet I'd be sorry when you're gone

I'll take my chances

I forgot how nice romance is

I haven't been there for the longest time


I had second thoughts at the start:

I said to myself-

Hold on to your heart.

Now I know the woman that you are

You're wonderful so far

And it's more than I hoped for...


I don't care what consequence it brings

I have been a fool for lesser things.

I want you so bad!
I think you ought to know that,
I intend to hold you for the longest time!

Wo-wo-wo-woah...

For the longest time...

The longest time...

Mary Anne and Wanda were the best of friends
All through their high school days
Both members of the 4H Club
Both active in the FFA
After graduation Mary Anne went out lookin'
for a bright new world
Wanda looked all around this town
and all she found was Earl

Well it wasn't two weeks
after she got married that
Wanda started gettin' abused
She put on dark glasses and long sleeved blouses
And make-up to cover a bruise
Well she finally got the nerve to file for divorce
She let the law take it from there
But Earl walked right through that restraining order
And put her in intensive care

Right away Mary Anne flew in from Atalnta
On a red eye midnight flight
She held Wanda's hand as they
worked out a plan
And it didn't take long to decided

That Earl had to die
Goodbye Earl
Those black-eyed peas
They tasted all right to me Earl
You're feeling weak
Why don't you lay down
and sleep Earl
Ain't it dark
Wrapped up in that tarp Earl

The cops came to bring Earl in
They searched the house
high and low
Then they tipped their hats
and said "Thank You ladies
if you hear from him let us know"

Well the weeks went by and
Spring turned to Summer
And Summer faded into Fall
And it turns out he was a missing person
who nobody missed al all

So the girls bouth some land
and a roadside stand
Out on Highway 109
They sell Tennessee ham
and strawberry jame
And they don't
lose any sleep at night 'cause

Earl had to die
Goodbye Earl
We need a break
Let's go out to the lake Earl
We'll pack a lunch
And stuff you in the trunk Earl
Well is that all right
Good Let's go for a ride
Earl hey

She's got a way about her
I don't know what it is
But I know that I can't live without her

She's got a way of pleasin'
I don't know what it is
But there doesn't have to be a reason anyway

She's got a smile that heals me
I don't know why it is
But I have to laugh when she reveals me

She's got a way of talkin'
I don't know why it is
But it lifts me up when we are walkin'

anywhere...

She comes to me when I'm feelin' down
Inspires me without a sound
She touches me and I get turned around.

She's got a way of showin'
How I make her feel
And I find the strength to keep on goin' .

She's got a light around her
And ev'rywhere she goes
A million dreams of love surround her

ev'rywhere

She comes to me when I'm feelin' down
Inspires me without a sound
She touches me and I get turned

around

She's got a smile that heals me
I don't know why it is
But I have to laugh when she reveals me

I'm holding to all I think is safe
It seems I found the road to nowhere
And I'm trying to escape
I yelled back when I heard thunder
But I'm down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me say

Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking
That maybe six feet
Ain't so far down

I'm looking down now that it's over
Reflecting on all of my mistakes
I thought I found the road to somewhere
Somewhere in His grace
I cried out heaven save me
But I'm down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me say

Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking
That maybe six feet
Ain't so far down

Sad eyes follow me
But I still believe there's somthing left for me
So please come stay with me

For you and me

Has our conscience shown?
Has the sweet breeze blown?
Is our kindness gone?
Hope still lingers on...

I drink myself of newfound pity,
Sitting alone in New York city.
And I don't know why.

Are we listening
To hymns of offering?
Have we eyes to see;
Love is gathering!

All the words that I've been reading,
Have now started the act of bleeding...
Into one.

So I walk up on high,
And I step to the edge -
To see my world below.

And I laugh to myself...

While the tears roll down.

Cause it's the world I know,
Well it's the world I know.

I drink myself of newfound pity,
Sitting alone in New York city.

While the tears roll down...

Cause it's the world I know!
Well, it's the world I know...

To see my world below-

While the tears roll down...

Shackled and raised for a shining crowd
They want you to speak but the music is louder than
All of their roar wit the heat of the planet's core-but

The shadows are on your side
As soon as the lights go down
In the darkest place you can find
You belong to the hands of the night

Promises made with a distant friend
Truth should be known it can only bend
To a tune of its own
Hey you'll never hear that voice again
Scandal in white on a tangled vine
With everybody to say that you're having the
Time of your life when your life is on the slide-but

The shadows are on your side
As soon as the lights go down
In the darkest place you can find
You belong to the hands of the night

Spinning a compass to choose your way
You can run you can dive you can stand and you can soar
Whichever way you can be sure-that

The shadows are on your side
As soon as the lights go down
In the darkest place you can find
You belong to the hands of the night

Shadows on your side
The shadows are on your side

I lie awake on a long, dark night
I can’t seem to tame my mind
Slings and arrows are killing me inside
Maybe I can’t accept the life that’s mine
No I can’t accept the life that’s mine

Simple living is my desperate cry
Been trading love with indifference
yeah it suits me just fine
I try to hold on but I’m calloused to the bone
Maybe that’s why I feel alone
Maybe that’s why I feel so alone

Me…I’m rusted and weathered
Barely holding together
I’m covered with skin that peels and
it just won’t heal

The sun shines and I can’t avoid the light
I think I’m holding on to life too tight
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Sometimes I feel like giving up
Sometimes I feel like giving up

Me…I’m rusted and weathered
Barely holding together
I’m covered with skin that peels
and it just won’t heal

The day reminds me of you
The night hides your truth
The earth is a voice
Speaking to you
Take all this pride
And leave it behind
Because one day it ends
One day we die
Believe what you will
That is your right
But I choose to win
So I choose to fight

To fight

Daemon of darkness, brother to the night
Jack of Shadows, what's he hanging out for?
King of the dimensions, the other side of light

And when he passes
He casts shades of mystery black
Flowing like molasses
It's only Jack of Shadows on his way back
To the kindom of thieves
Before the skies crack

Jack of Shadows, cloak of constellations
Draped around his body, blanking out his face
Jack of Shadows, don't believe in God, he
steals from the future, fades without a trace

And when the flames flare
Flickering forms of velvet dark
He plays his games there
It's only Jack of Shadows, he's lit up by a spark
To run into the umbra , as fast as a shark

Jack of Shadows, ultravoilet eyesight
Giving him the vision that cats-eye infrared
Jack of Shadows, watch him as he flies right
Through all of the umbras, quicker than the dead

And when he passes
He casts shades of mystery black
Flowing like molasses
It's only Jack of Shadows on his way back
To the kindom of thieves
Before the skies crack

Jack of Shadows, Jack of Shadows
Jack of Shadows, Jack of Shadows

You ever have those moments of clairty ... like when you realize your country went to war with another 'ism' rather than a real enemy just to insure that that ism will eventually become an even greater enemy?

Because that's what I had this morning... looking at a photot on yahoo news... of an Iraqi man - wired to explosives, being made to stand on a narrow box with his arms spread...

He was in the hands - of the americans.

Amnesty international is documenting our war crimes. <smiles ruefully>

I just so damn proud of my country...

So proud I want to sing in fact.

<eyes narrow menacingly>

It just has to be the right damn song...

And I cant help but think of a quote from Rogue...

"We're supposed to be the heroes here... We're supposed to be better than this!"

Not that I've really believed that of 'us' since this B.S. war started...

I never, ever, ever have a place to hide
I need you!

I need you, you, you!

You know people when you do find that somebody...
Hold that woman, hold that man
Love him, hold him, squeeze her, please her, hold her
Squeeze and please that person, give 'em all your love
Signify your feelings with every gentle caress
Because it's so important to have that special somebody
to hold, kiss, miss, squeeze and please

Hello my friend, we meet again
It's been awhile, where should we begin?
Feels like forever
Within my heart are memories
Of perfect love that you gave to me
Oh, I remember

When you are with me, I'm free
I'm careless, I believe
Above all the others we'll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My sacrifice

We've seen our share of ups and downs
Oh how quickly life can turn around
In an instant
It feels so good to reunite
Within yourself and within your mind
Let's find peace there

When you are with me, I'm free
I'm careless, I believe
Above all the others we'll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My sacrifice

I just want to say hello again
I just want to say hello again

When you are with me I'm free
I'm careless, I believe
Above all the others we'll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
Cause when you are with me I am free
I'm careless, I believe
Above all the others we'll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My sacrifice, My sacrifice

I just want to say hello again

I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking
That maybe six feet
Ain't so far down

I'm looking down now that it's over
Reflecting on all of my mistakes
I thought I found the road to somewhere
Somewhere in His grace
I cried out heaven save me
But I'm down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me say

Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking
That maybe six feet
Ain't so far down

Sad eyes follow me
But I still believe there's something left for me
So please come stay with me
'Cause I still believe there's something left for you and me
For you and me
For you and me

Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking

<shrugs and approaches>

I wont bore you by singing "The world I know" again after that one - it's a companion piece in my mind. It always feels best to end on a posative note... even if it is a sad song.

Instead... I'm seeking some balance here...

Between all those dark impulses and all those good ones that are fighting them back... <smirks> You know the ones I mean... you've seen my song selections of late...

Anyway...

<Strikes dramatic stare in to the audience and the music begins>

Whose song is that remembered?
At random, surpenting?
Throught fatty coils, emerging...
Some other thoughts it's thinking
This light
Stands above
The houses
On the ground.

This illumination's
visited upon the whole land!

Unmarked helicopters... <watches for them in the distance>
Hovering. <smiles as if in memory>
The lord is coming soon. <nods>

Here comes the super copter.
Here comes the noise it makes.

The demon was an idea, <smirk>
the demon is awake. <knowing smile/shrug>

scratch mark traced across...
The surface of your mind.

This hour, now upon us
the hour has now arrived!

Unmarked helicopters.
Hovering.
The lord is coming soon!
Unmarked helicopters.
Hovering.
They said it was a weather balloon

But i know the truth
I know the whole shebang
I know the names of men they had to hang
I let her out the trunk
I heard what she said at them
They've come to drag us through the double M

<whispers> M-illeniu-M...

It goes black, black, black, black and blacker.
It all goes black, black, black, black and blacker.
Then it goes black, black, black, black and blacker.
It all goes black, black, black, black and blacker.

Unmarked helicopters.
Hovering.
The lord is coming soon.
Unmarked helicopters.
Hovering.
They said it was a weather balloon.

"it was a weather balloon,
it was a weather balloon,
it was a weather balloon,
it was a weather balloon."

<shakes head>

it's not a weather balloon...

<Remedy is handed a note and mouths the words "You're a ..." Then he looks shocked.>

I am NOT! <indignant look> In fact...

<Presses g-18 on the Karteoke machine>

You know just the other morning,
I was hanging around in my house.
I had that new book with pictures of Madonna naked
And I was checkin' it out.

Just then a friend of mine came through the door.
Said she never pegged me for a scumbag before.
She said she didn't ever want to see me any more.
And I still don't know why...

I think I'm am alright guy, I think I'm am alright guy
I just want to live until I've gotta die
I know I ain't perfect, but God knows I try
I think I'm an alright guy, I think I'm alright

Now maybe I'm dirty
And maybe I'v got a little stoned...
It's not like I'm foolin' with my intern
While I'm talkin' on my phone.

I know I get wild and I know I'm a punk.
But, it ain't like I got a bunch of bodies in my trunk.
My old man used to call me a no good drunk.
And I still don't know why

I think I'm am alright guy, I think I'm am alright guy
I just want to live until I've gotta die
I know I ain't perfect, but God knows I try
I think I'm an alright guy, I think I'm alright

You know, just the other night,
These cops pulled me over outside a bar.
They turned on their lights,
And they ordered me out of my car.

Man,
I was only kidding
when I called them a couple of clicks...

But still they made me do the stupid human tricks...

Now I'm stuck in this jail with a bunch of dumb hicks...

And I still don't know why...

I think I'm am alright guy, I think I'm am alright guy
I just want to live until I've gotta die
I know I ain't perfect, but God knows I try
I think I'm an alright guy, I think I'm alright

I really do.

I'm alright!

Well... I am.

Walking around I hear the earth seeking relief
I’m trying to find a reason to live
But the mindless clutter my path
Oh these thorns in my side
I know I have something free
I have something so alive
I think they shoot ‘cause they want it

I feel forces all around me
Come on raise your head
Those who hide behind the shadows
Live with all that’s dead

Look at me…look at me
At least look at me when you shoot a bullet
through my head
Through my head
Through my head
Through my head

In my lifetime when I’m disgraced
By jealousy and lies
I laugh aloud ‘cause my life
Has gotten inside someone else’s mind

Look at me…look at me
At least look at me when you shoot a bullet
through my head
Through my head
Through my head
Through my head

Hey all I want is what’s real
Something I touch and can feel
I’ll hold it close and never let it go
Said why…why do we live life
With all this hate inside
I’ll give it away ‘cause I don’t want it no more
Please help me find a place
Somewhere far away I’ll go and you’ll never see me again

I wonder what it's like to know that I made the rain
I'd store it in boxes with little yellow tags on everyone
and you can come and see them when I'm...done, when I'm done

I wonder what it's like to be a super hero
I wonder where I'd go if I could fly around downtown
from some other planet, I get this funky high on yellow sun
boy I bet my friends will all be...stunned, they're stunned

straight up, what did you hope to learn about here
if I were someone else, would this all fall apart
strange, where were you, when we started this gig,
I wish the real world, would just stop hassling me

I wonder what it's like to be the head honcho
I wonder what I'd do if they all did just what I said
I'd shout out an order, I think we're out of this man get
me some
boy don't make me wanna change my...tone, my tone

straight up, what did you hope to learn about here
if I were someone else, would this all fall apart

please don't change, please don't break
the only thing that seems to work at all is you
please don't change, at all from me

When I saw you for the first time
My knees began to quiver
And I got a funny feeling
In my kidneys and my liver

My hands they started shakin'
My heart began a-thumpin'
My breakfast left my body
It all really tells me something

Girl you make me tongue tied
Tongue tied, whenever you are near me
Tied tongue,Tied tongue
Whenever you're in town

I saw you 'cross the dance floor
I thought of birds and bees
And when I tried to speak to ya
My tongue unraveled to my knees

I tried to say I love you
But it came out kind of wrong, girl
It sounded like "Nunubididoo"
Nuh mur nuh murh ni nong nurl

'Cause you make me tongue tied
Tongue tied, whenever you are near me
Be-dobby-durgle
Tongue tied, whenever you're around

Oh I'm beggin' on my knees
Sweet, sweet darling, listen please
Understand me when I say
Bedurble-diggle-dooby-doggle-durgle-day

In the haze of darkness
I remember it like yesterday
Someone I once used to be
And then it fades away
I feel it around the corner
A thought I never had
I see it in the mirror
And the reflections make me sad

It's a smoke like no other
A scent I can not smell
A story I vaguely remember
With words I can not tell

And then like the morning
When I find myself awake
A dream that has faded gone
Was it my mistake?

But like the ripple of the waves
It fades away like mist
And so I keep on searching
For what I just might be

Looking under every rock
Until I finally will see

And in the darkness there is light
The truth becomes all clear
The words of wisdom answer me
What I seek is near

In a cave I find it
Dusty, dark, and old
The memories returning
My story can be told

Reality is fleeting
My loved ones fade away
But of that which I have seen
The memories will stay

Just a song before I go
To whom it may concern
Traveling twice the speed of sound
It's easy to get burned


When the shows were all over
We had to get back home
And when we opened up the door
I had to be alone


She helped me with my suitcase
She stands before my eyes
Driving me to the airport
And to the friendly skies


Going through security
I held her for so long
She finally looked at me in love
And she was gone


Just a song before I go
A lesson to be learned
Traveling twice the speed of sound
It's easy to get burned

On a dark desert highway
Cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas
Rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance
I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night

There she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
This could be Heaven or this could be Hell
Then she lit up a candle
And she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor
I thought I heard them say

Her mind was Tiffany twisted
She's got the Mercedes Benz
She's got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
That she calls "friends"
How they dance in the courtyard
Sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember
Some dance to forget

So I called up the Captain
Please bring me my wine
He said:
"We haven't had that spirit here since 1969"
And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say

Mirrors on the ceiling
Pink champagne on ice
She said:
"We are all just prisoners here
Of our own device"
And in the master's chambers
They gather for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives
But they just can't kill the beast
Last thing I remember
I was running for the door
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
"Relax" said the night man
"We are programed to receive.
You can check out any time you like
But you can never leave"

love I get so lost, sometimes
days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
when I want to run away
I drive off in my car
but whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are

all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside

in your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light
the heat I see in your eyes

love, I don't like to see so much pain
so much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
I get so tired of working so hard for our survival
I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive

and all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside

in your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat

To what do I owe this gift my friend?
My life, my love, my soul?
I’ve been dancing with the devil
way too long
And it’s making me grow old
Making me grow old

Let’s leave…oh let’s get away
Get lost in time
Where there’s no reason to hide

Let’s leave…oh let’s get away
Run in fields of time
Where there’s no reason to hide

What are you going to do with
your gift dear child?
Give life, give love, give soul?
Divided is the one who dances
For the soul is so exposed
So exposed

Let’s leave…oh let’s get away
Get lost in time
Where there’s no reason to hide

Let’s leave…oh let’s get away
Run in fields of time
Where there’s no reason to hide

There is no reason to hide

You and I in a little toy shop
buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got
Set them free at the break of dawn
'Til one by one, they were gone
Back at base, bugs in the software
Flash the message, "Something's out there"
Floating in the summer sky
99 red balloons go by.

99 red balloons floating in the summer sky
Panic bells, it's red alert
There's something here from somewhere else
The war machine springs to life
Opens up one eager eye
Focusing it on the sky
Where 99 red balloons go by.

99 Decision Street, 99 ministers meet
To worry, worry, super-scurry
Call the troops out in a hurry
This is what we've waited for
This is it boys, this is war
The president is on the line
As 99 red balloons go by.

99 Knights of the air
ride super-high-tech jet fighters
Everyone's a Silverhero
Everyone's a Captain Kirk
With orders to identify
To clarify and classify
Scramble in the summer sky
As 99 red balloons go by.

As 99 red balloons go by.

99 dreams I have had
In every one a red balloon
It's all over and I'm standin' pretty
In this dust that was a city
If I could find a souvenier
Just to prove the world was here...
And here is a red balloon
I think of you and let it go.

Generals gathered in their masses
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot destruction
Sorcerers of death's construction
In the fields the bodies burning
As the war machine keeps turning
Death and hatred to mankind
Poisoning their brainwashed minds, oh lord yeah!

Politicians hide themselves away
They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor

Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait 'till their judgement day comes, yeah!


Now in darkness, world stops turning
As the war machine keeps burning
No more war pigs of the power
Hand of god has sturck the hour
Day of judgement, god is calling
On their knees, the war pigs crawling
Begging mercy for their sins
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings
All right now!

Take the children and yourself
And hide out in the cellar
By now the fighting will be close at hand
Don't believe the church and state
And everything they tell you
Believe in me, I'm with the high command

Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?

There's a gun and ammunition
Just inside the doorway
Use it only in emergency
Better you should pray to God
The Father and the Spirit
Will guide you and protect from up here

Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?

Swear allegiance to the flag
Whatever flag they offer
Never hint at what you really feel
Teach the children quietly
For some day sons and daughters
Will rise up and fight while we stood still

Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?

Can you hear me running (can you hear me calling you?)

Goodnight, my angel
Time to close your eyes
And save these questions for another day
I think I know what you've been asking me
I think you know what I've been trying to say
I promised I would never leave you
And you should always know
Wherever you may go
No matter where you are
I never will be far away

Goodnight, my angel
Now it's time to sleep
And still so many things I want to say
Remember all the songs you sang for me
When we went sailing on an emerald bay
And like a boat out on the ocean
I'm rocking you to sleep
The water's dark
And deep inside this ancient heart
You'll always be a part of me

Goodnight, my angel
Now it's time to dream
And dream how wonderful your life will be
Someday your child may cry
And if you sing this lullabye
Then in your heart
There will always be a part of me

Someday we'll all be gone
But lullabyes go on and on...
They never die
That's how you
And I
Will be

All those memories we share
I will cherish every one of them
The truth of it is there’s a right way to live
And you showed me
So now you live on in the words of a song
You’re a melody

You stand here with me now

Just when fear blinded me
you taught me to dream
I’ll give you everything I am
and still fall short of
What you’ve done for me
In this life that I live
I hope I can give love unselfishly
I’ve learned the world is bigger than me
You’re my daily dose of reality

You stand here with me now

On and on we sing
On and on we sing this song

From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There's more to be seen than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done

Some say eat or be eaten
Some say live and let live
But all are agreed as they join the stampede
You should never take more than you give

In the circle of life
It's the wheel of fortune
It's the leap of faith
It's the band of hope
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life

Some of us fall by the wayside
And some of us soar to the stars
And some of us sail through our troubles
And some have to live with the scars

There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round

I know you're out there somewhere,
Somewhere, somewhere
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you.

The mist is lifting slowly,
I can see the way ahead.

And I've left behind the empty streets
That once inspired my life.

And the strength of the emotion
Is like thunder in the air
'Cos the promise that we made each other
Haunts me to the end.

I know you're out there somewhere,
Somewhere, somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere,

Somewhere you can hear my voice.

I know I'll find you somehow,
Somehow, somehow.

I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you.

The secret of your beauty
And the mystery of your soul
I've been searching for in everyone I meet
And the times I've been mistaken
It's impossible to say

And the grass is growing
Underneath our feet.

I know you're out there somewhere,
Somewhere, somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere,
Somewhere you can hear my voice.
I know I'll find you somehow,
Somehow, somehow.
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you.

The words that I remember
From my childhood still are true
That there's none so blind
As those who will not see

And to those who lack the courage
And say it's dangerous to try
Well they just don't know
That love eternal will not be denied.

I know you're out there somewhere,
Somewhere, somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere,
Somewhere you can hear my voice.

I know I'll find you somehow,
Somehow, somehow.
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you.

Yes, I know it's going to happen.
I can feel you getting near.

And soon we'll be returning...
To the fountain of our youth.

And, if you wake up wondering
In the darkness, I'll be there.

My arms will close around you
And protect you with the truth.

I know you're out there somewhere,
Somewhere, somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere,

Somewhere you can hear my voice.
I know I'll find you somehow,
Somehow, somehow.
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you.

And baby, I'll return again to you...

You don't know how you met me
You don't know why
You can't turn around and say goodbye
All you know is when I'm with you
I make you free
And swim through your veins like a fish in the sea
I'm singin'

Follow me everything is alright
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you
Want to leave I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me

I'm not worried 'bout the ring you wear
Cuz as long as no one knows than nobody can care
You're feelin' guilty and I'm well aware
But you don't look ashamed and baby I'm not scared
I'm singin'

Follow me everything is alright
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you
Want to leave I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me

Won't give you money
I can't give you the sky
You're better off if you don't ask why
I'm not the reason that you go astray and
We'll be all right if you don't ask me to stay

Follow me everything is alright
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you
Want to leave I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me

You don't know how you met me
You don't know why
You can't turn around and say goodbye
All you know is when I'm with you
I make you free
And swim through your veins like a fish in the sea
I'm singin'

Follow me everything is alright
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night

Come out, Virginia, don't let me wait
You Catholic girls start much too late
Ah but sooner or later it comes down to fate
I might as well be the one

Well, they showed you a statue, told you to pray
They built you a temple and locked you away
Ah but they never told you the price that you pay
For things that you might have done

Only the good die young, that's what I say
Only the good die young, only the good die young

You might have heard I run with a dangerous crowd
We ain't too pretty, we ain't too proud
We might be laughing a bit too loud
Oh, but that never hurt no one

So come on, Virginia, show me a sign
Send up a signal, I'll throw you a line
That stained glass curtain you're hiding behind
Never lets in the sun

Darlin', only the good die young, wo-o-o-oh
I tell you only the good die young, only the good die young

You got a nice white dress and a party on your confirmation
You got a brand new soul and a cross of gold
But, Virginia, they didn't give you quite enough information
You didn't count on me when you were counting on your rosary

Oh oh oh
And they say there's a heaven for those who will wait
Some say it's better but I say it ain't
I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints
The sinners are much more fun

You know that only the good die young, woo-oo-oo baby
I tell you only the good die young, only the good die young

Said your mother told you
All that I could give you was a reputation
Oh, she never cared for me but did she ever say a prayer for me
No, oh, oh
Come out come out come out Virginia don't let me wait
You Catholic girls start much too late
But sooner or later it comes down to fate
I might as well be the one

You know that only the good die young, tell you, baby
You know that only the good die young
Only the good die young
Only the good, good, only the good die young
Oo-oo-oo-o-oh o-o-oo-oo-o-oh
Oo-oo-oo-o-o-oh o-o-o-oo-oo-oh

And now to continue my Billy Joel medely... <chuckles>

---

Friday night I crashed your party
Saturday I said i'm sorry
Sunday came and trashed me out again
I was only having fun
Wasn't hurting any one - So I thought...
And I really enjoyed the weekend - for a change

I've been stranded in the combat zone
I walked through Bedford Stuy alone
Even rode my motorcycle in the rain
And you told me not to drive
But I made it home alone
So you said that only proves that i'm insane

You may be right
I may be crazy
But it just may be a lunatic your looking for
Turn out the light
Don,t try to save me
You may be wrong for all i know
But you may be right

Remember how i found you there
Alone in your electric chair
I told you dirty jokes untill you smiled
You were lonely for a man
I said take me as i am
Cause you might enjoy some madness for a while

Now think of all the years you tried to
Find someone to satisfy you
I might be as crazy as you say
If i'm crazy then it's true
That it's all because of you
And you wouldn"t want me any other way

You may be right
I may be crazy
But it just may be a lunatic your looking for
It's too late to fight
It's too late to change me
You may be wrong for all i know
But you may be right

You may be right
I may be crazy
But it just may be a lunatic your looking for
Turn out the light
Don,t try to save me
You may be wrong for all i know
But you may be right
You may be wrong but you may be right
You may be wrong but you may be right
You may be rignt!

You may be right...

You're having a hard time and lately you don't feel so good...
You're getting a bad reputation in your neighborhood...

It's alright, it's alright
Sometimes that's what it takes
You're only human,
you're allowed to make your share of mistakes

You're only human! Who-Who-whoooo...

You better believe there will be times in your life,
When you'll be feeling like a stumbling fool.
So take it from me you'll learn more from your accidents,
Than anything that you could ever learn at school.

Don't forget your second wind!
Sooner of later you'll get your second wind!!

It's not always easy to be living in this world of pain.
You're gonna be crashing into stone walls again and again.

It's alright, it's alright
Though you feel your heart break...
You're only human,
you're gonna have to deal with heartache.

You're only human! Who-who-ooo...

Just like a boxer in a title fight -
You got to walk in that ring all alone.
You're not the only one who's made mistakes,
But they're the only thing that you can truly call your own!

Don't forget your second wind!
Wait in that corner until that breeze blows in!!

You've been keeping to yourself these days,
Cause you're thinking everything's gone wrong.

Sometimes you just want to lay down and die!

That emotion can be so strong...

But hold on...

Till that old second wind comes along...

You probably don't want to hear advice from someone else,

But I wouldn't be telling you if I hadn't been there myself.

It's alright, it's alright

Sometimes that's all it takes...

We're only human.

We're supposed to make mistakes!

But I survived all those long lonely days,
When it seemed I did not have a friend.
Cause all I needed was a little faith.
So I could catch my breath!
And face the world again!!

Don't forget your second wind...
Sooner or later you'll feel that momentum kick in..
Don't forget your second wind...
Sooner or later you'll feel that momentum kick in ...

When you look into my eyes
and you see the crazy gypsy in my soul
it always comes as a surprise
when i feel my withered roots begin to grow

well i never had a place
that I could call my very own
but that's all right my love
cuz you're my home.

when you touch my weary head
and you tell me everything will be all right
You say use my body for your bed
and my love will keep you warm throughout the night

well i'll never be a stranger
and i'll never be alone
wherever we're together
that's my home.

Home could be the Pennsylvania turnpike
Indiana's early morning dew
high up in the hills of California
home is just another word for you

Well I never had a place that i could call my very own
but that's all right my love cuz you're my home

If i travel all my life
and i never get stop and settle down
long as i have you by my side
there's a roof above and good walls all around
you're my castle, you're my cabin
and my instant pleasure dome
i need you in my house
cuz you're my home,..
you're my home.

All the waiters in you grand cafe
Leave their tables when you blink
Every dog must have his everyday
Every drunk must have his drink
Don't wait for answers
Just take your chances
Don't ask me why

All your life you had to stand in line
Still you're standing on your feet
All your choices made you change your mind
Now your calendar's complete
Don't wait for answers
Just take your chances
Don't ask me why

You can say the human heart is only make believe
And I am only fighting fire with fire
But you are still a victim
of the accidents you leave
As sure as I'm a victim of desire

All the servants in your new hotel
Throw their roses at your feet
Fool them all but baby I can tell
You're no stranger to the street
Don't ask for favors
Don't talk to strangers
Don't ask me why

Yesterday you were an only child
Now your ghosts have gone away
You can kill them in the classic style

Call me a joker, call me a fool
Right at this moment I'm totally cool
Clear as a crystal, sharp as a knife
I feel like I'm in the prime of my life
Sometimes it feels like I'm going too fast
I don't know how long this feeling will last
Maybe it's only tonight

Darling I don't know why I got to extremes
Too high or too low there ain't no in-betweens
And if I stand or I fall
It's all or nothing at all
Darling I don't know why I got to extremes

Sometimes I'm tired, sometimes I'm shot
Sometimes I don't know how much more I've got
Maybe I'm headed over the hill
Maybe I've set myself up for the kill
Tell me how much do you think you can take
Until the heart in you is starting to break?
Sometimes it feels like it will

Darling I don't know why I go to extremes
Too high or too low there ain't no in-betweens
You can be sure when I'm gone
I won't be out there too long
Darling I don't know why I got to extremes

Out of the darkness, into the light
Leaving the scene of the crime
Either I'm wrong or I'm perfectly right every time
Sometimes I lie awake, night after night
Coming apart at the seams
Eager to please, ready to fight
Why do I go to extremes?

And if I stand or I fall
It's all or nothing at all

Darling I don't know why I go to extremes
Too high or too low there ain't no in-betweens
And if I stand of I fall
It's all or nothing at all
Darling I don't know why I go to extremes

No I don't know why I go to extremes
Too high or too low there ain't no in-betweens
You can be sure when I'm gone
I won't be out there too long
Darling I don't know why I go to extremes!!!

*grabs a tranquillizer gun and quickly shoots at R=T and hits*

*everyone looks at her*

What he said he wanted to be sedated. Shouldn't someone give him his wish? Now time for me to sing, I haven't been here for a long time so here it goes.

I remember when rock was young
Me and Suzie had so much fun
holding hands and skimming stones
Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own
But the biggest kick I ever got
was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock
While the other kids were Rocking Round the Clock
we were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock


Well Crocodile Rocking is something shocking
when your feet just can't keep still
I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will
Oh Lawdy mama those Friday nights
when Suzie wore her dresses tight
and the Crocodile Rocking was out of sight


La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la,la, la

But the years went by and the rock just died
Suzie went and left us for some foreign guy
Long nights crying by the record machine
dreaming of my Chevy and my old blue jeans
But they'll never kill the thrills we've got
burning up to the Crocodile Rock
Learning fast as the weeks went past
we really thought the Crocodile Rock would last


Well Crocodile Rocking is something shocking
when your feet just can't keep still
I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will
Oh Lawdy mama those Friday nights
when Suzie wore her dresses tight
and the Crocodile Rocking was out of sight


La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la (repeat until fade)

I love that song. I even put it in festive colors like Elton would. He he. You can tell I have way too much time on my hands.

Let's go back
back to the begining
back to when the earth, the sun and the stars all aligned

'cause perfect didn't seem so perfect
trying to fit a square into a circle
was no life
I defy

Let the rain fall down
and wake my dreans
let it wash away
my sanity
'cause I wanna feel the thunder
I wanna scream
let the rain fall down
I'm coming clean, I'm coming clean

I'm shedding
shedding every color
trying to find a pigment of truth
beneath my skin

'cause different
doesn't feel so different
and goin out is better
then always staying in
feel the wind

let the rain fall down
and wake my dreans
let it wash away
my sanity
'cause I wanna feel the thunder
I wanna scream
let the rain fall down
I'm coming clean, I'm coming clean

I'm coming clean
let the rain fall
let the rain fall
I'm coming clean

let the rain fall down
and wake my dreans
let it wash away
my sanity
'cause I wanna feel the thunder
I wanna scream
let the rain fall down
I'm coming clean, I'm coming clean

<chuckles> So What? I'm in a happily dark mood...

(Nick Cave - Red Right Hand)

Take a little walk to the edge of town,
go across the tracks
Where the viaduct
looms like a bird of doom,
as it shifts and cracks

Where secrets lie in the border fires,
in the humming wires,
Hey man you know you're never coming back!

Past the square, past the bridge, past the mills past the stacks...

On a gathering storm comes a tall handsome man
In a dusty black coat with a red right hand.

He'll wrap you in his arms tell you that you've been good.

He'll rekindle all the dreams it took you a lifetime to destroy.

He'll reach deep into your soul, heal your shrinking soul
but there wont be a single thing that you can do.

He's a god, he's a man, he's a ghost, he's a guru.

They're whispering his name though this disapearing land.

But hidden in his coat is a red right hand!

You dont own no money? He'll get you some
You don't have no car? He'll get you one
You dont have no self respect, you feel like an insect,
Well dont you worry buddy coz here he comes!

Through the ghettos and the barrio and the bowery and the slums...

A shadow is cast whereever he stands.
Stacks of green paper in his red right hand...

You'll see him in your nightmares,
you'll see him in your dreams
He'll appear out of no where,
but he aint what he seems.

You'll see him in your head,
on the TV screen...

And hey buddy, Im warning you to turn it off!

He's a ghost, he's a god, he's a man, he's a guru!

You're one microscopic cog in his catastrophic plan
designed and directed by his red right hand...

Whoop!

You shoot me from a gun
I need you to elevate me here

A corner of your lips
Is the orbit of your hips
Eclipse
You elevate my soul

I've got no self control
Been living like a mole now
Going down, excavation
Higher now, in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high
Elevation

A star
Lit up like a cigar
Strung out like a guitar
Maybe you can educate my mind

Explain all these controls
Can't sing but I've got soul
The goal is elevation

A mole
Digging in a hole
Digging up my soul now
Going down, excavation

Higher now
In the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high
Elevation

Love
Lift me out of these blues
Won't you tell me something true
I believe in you

A mole
Digging in a hole
Digging up my soul now
Going down, excavation

Higher now

You make me feel like I can fly
So high

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in pain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I dream of fire
Those dreams are tied to a horse that will never tire
And in the flames
Her shadows play in the shape of a man's desire

This desert rose
Each of her veils, a secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this

And as she turns
This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams
This fire burns
I realise that nothing's as it seems

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in pain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I dream of rain
I lift my gaze to empty skies above
I close my eyes, this rare perfume
Is the sweet intoxication of her love

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in pain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

Sweet desert rose
Each of her veils, a secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this

Sweet desert rose
This memory of Eden haunts us all
This desert flower, this rare perfume
Is the sweet intoxication of the fall

How many of you people out there
Been hurt in some kind of love affair?
And how many times did you swear that you'd never love again?

How many lonely sleepless nights?
How many lies, how many fights?
And why would you want to put yourself through all of that again?

'Love is pain,' I hear you say
Love has a cruel and bitter way
Of paying you back for all the faith you ever had in your brain

How could it be that what you need the most
Can leave you feeling just like a ghost?
You never want to feel so sad and lost again

One day you could be looking through an old book in rainy weather
You see a picture of her smiling at you when you were still together
Or you could be walking down the street and who should you chance to meet?
But that same old smile you’ve been thinking of all day

Why don't we turn the clock to zero honey
I'll sell the stock, we'll spend all the money
We're starting up a brand new day
Turn the clock all the way back
I wonder if she'll take me back
I'm thinking in a brand new way
Turn the clock to zero sister
You'll never know how much I missed her
I'm starting up a brand new day
Turn the clock to zero boss
The rivers wide we'll swim across
We're starting up a brand new day

It could happen to you,
Just like it happened to me
There's simply no immunity,
There's no guarantee.
I say love is such a force if you should find yourself in it
You need some time for reflection
You say, baby wait a minute, wait a minute
Wait a minute, wait a minute
Wait a minute, wait a minute

Turn the clock to zero honey
I'll sell the stock, we'll spend all the money
We're starting up a brand new day
Turn the clock to zero mac
I'm begging her to take me back
I'm thinking in a brand new way
Turn the clock to zero boss
The rivers wide, we'll swim across
We're starting up a brand new day
Turn the clock to zero buddy
Don't wanna be no fuddy duddy
We're starting up a brand new day

I'm the rhythm in your tune
I'm the sun and you're the moon
I'm the bat and you're the cave
You're the beach and I'm the wave
I'm the plough and you're the land
You're the glove and I'm the hand
I'm the train and you're the station
I'm the flagpole to your nation, yeah

Stand up...

I'm the present to your future
You're the wound and I'm the suture
You're the magnet to my pole
I'm the devil in your soul
You're the pupil I'm the teacher
You're the church and I'm the preacher
You're the flower I'm the rain
You're the tunnel I'm the train

Stand up, all you lovers in the world
Stand up and be counted, every boy and every girl
Stand up, all you lovers in the world
We're Starting up a brand new day...

You're the crop to my rotation
You're the sum of my equation
I'm the answer to your question
If you follow my suggestion
We could turn this ship around
We'll go up instead of down
You're the pan and I'm the handle
You're the flame and I'm the candle

Stand up, all you lovers in the world
Stand up and be counted, every boy and every girl
Stand up, all you lovers in the world
We're starting up a brand new day

Down in my heart, I have an aching pain
How long, how how long, baby how long?

I feel disgusted, I feel so bad
Thinking 'bout the good time that I once had had
How long, how how long, baby how long?

I could see the green grass growing on the hill;
I ain't seen no greenback on a dollar bill
How long, how how long, baby how long?

You're gonna be sorry you feel so blue
When you want me, baby, I declare I want, want you
How long, how how long, baby how long?

Don't have no money for to ride the train
I would ride the rugs, baby, to be with you again

In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there

I hear your voice, it's like an angel sighing
I have no choice, I hear your voice
Feels like flying
I close my eyes, Oh God I think I'm falling
Out of the sky, I close my eyes
Heaven help me

(chorus)

Like a child you whisper softly to me
You're in control just like a child
Now I'm dancing
It's like a dream, no end and no beginning
You're here with me, it's like a dream
Let the choir sing

(chorus)

Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery
Just like a dream, you are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice your voice can take me there

Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me

(The story in your eyes - The Moody Blues)

I've been thinking about our fortune
And I've decided that we're really not to blame
For the love that's deep inside us now
Is still the same

And the sounds we make together
Is the music to the story in your eyes
It's been shining down upon me now
I realise

Listen to the tide slowly turning
Wash all our heartaches away
We're part of the fire that is burning
And from the ashes we can build another day

But I'm frightened for your children
That the life that we are living is in vain
And the sunshine we've been waiting for
Will turn to rain

Listen to the tide slowly turning
Wash all our heartaches away
We're part of the fire that is burning
And from the ashes we can build another day

But I'm frightened for the children
That the life that we are living is in vain
And the sunshine we've been waiting for
Will turn to rain

When the final line is over
It's certain that the curtain's gonna fall
I can hide inside your sweet, sweet love
Forever more

Turnaround, every now and then I get a
little bit lonely and you're never coming
round
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit tired of listening to the sound of
my tears
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit nervous that the best of all the
years have gone by
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit terrified and then I see the look in
your eyes
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart

Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit restless and I dream of
something wild
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit helpless and I'm lying like a child
in your arms
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit angry and I know I've got to get
out and cry
Turnaround, Every now and then I get a
little bit terrified but then I see the look in
you eyes
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you'll only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
Cause we'll never be wrong together
We can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart
Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

INSTRUMENTAL

Turnaround bright eyes
Turnaround bright eyes
Turnaround, every now and then I know
you'll never be the boy you always
you wanted to be
Turnaround, every now and then I know
you'll always be the only boy who
wanted me the way that I am
Turnaround, every now and then I know
there's no one in the universe as
magical and wonderous as you
Turnaround, every now and then I know
there's nothing any better and there's
nothing I just wouldn't do
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you'll only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
Cause we'll never be wrong together
We can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time

Put on my blue suede shoes and I
Boarded the plane
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
In the middle of the pouring rain
W.C. Handy
Won't you look down over me
Yeah, I got a first class ticket
But I'm as blue as a boy can be

Then I'm walking in Memphis
I was walking with my feet 10 feet off of Beale
Walking in Memphis
But do I really feel the way I feel

Saw the ghost of Elvis
On Union Avenue
Followed him up to the gates of Graceland
Then I watched him walk right through
Now, security did not see him
They just hovered round his tomb
But there's a pretty little thing
Waiting for the king
Down in the jungle room

When I was walking in Memphis
I was walking with my feet 10 feet off of Beale
Walking in Memphis
Do I really feel the way I feel

Now, they've got catfish on the table
They've got gospel in the air
The Reverend Green, he'd be glad to see you
When you haven't got a prayer

Boy, you got a prayer in Memphis

Muriel plays piano
Every Friday at the Hollywood
And they brought me down to see her
And they asked me if I would
Do a little number
So I sang with all my might
She said, "Tell me are you a Christian, child?"
And i said, "Ma'am, I am tonight!"

Hey, your glass is empty, it's a hell of a long way home
Why don't you let me take you, it's no good to go alone
I never would have opened up, but you seemed so real to me
And after all the bullshit I've heard, refreshing not to see
That I don't have to pretend, she doesn't expect it from me

So don't tell me I haven't been good to you
Don't tell me I have never been there for you
Just tell me why nothing is good enough

Hey, little girl, would you like some candy, your momma said it's OK
The door is open, come on outside, "no, I can't come out today"
It's not the wind that cracked your shoulder and threw you to the ground
Who's there that makes you so afraid you're shaken to the bone
And no, I don't understand, you deserve so much more than this

So don't tell me why he's never been good to you
Don't tell me why he's never been there for you
Don't you know that why is simply not good enough

Oh, so just let me try, I will be good to you
Just let me try, and I will be there for you
I'll show you why you're so much more than good enough

So don't tell me why he's never been good to you
Don't tell me why he's never been there for you
Don't you know that why is simply not good enough

Oh, so just let me try, and I will be good to you
Just let me try, and I will be there for you
I'll show you why you're so much more than
Good enough

Post by remedychill on May 12, 2004, 5:55pm

Some people stay far away from the door
If there's a chance of it opening up
They hear a voice in the hall outside
And hope that it just passes by

Some people live with the fear of a touch
And the anger of having been a fool
They will not listen to anyone
So nobody tells them a lie

I know you're only protecting yourself
I know you're thinking of somebody else
Someone who hurt you

But I'm not above
Making up for the love
You've been denying you could ever feel

I'm not above doing anything
To restore your faith if I can

Some people see through the eyes of the old
Before they ever get a look at the young

I'm only willing to hear you cry
Because I am an innocent man

I am an innocent man
Oh yes I am

Some people say they will never believe
Another promise they hear in the dark
Because they only remember too well
They heard somebody tell them before

Some people sleep all alone every night
Instead of taking a lover to bed
Some people find that it's easier to hate
Than to wait anymore

I know you don't want to hear what I say
I know you're gonna keep turning away

But I've been there and if I can survive
I can keep you alive

I'm not above going through it again

I'm not above being cool for a while
If you're cruel to me I'll understand

Some people run from a possible fight
Some people figure they can never win

And although this is a fight I can lose

The accused is an innocent man

I am an innocent man
Oh yes I am
An innocent man

You know you only hurt yourself out of spite
I guess you'd rather be a martyr tonight
That's your decision
But I'm not below
Anybody I know
If there's a chance of resurrecting a love

I'm not above going back to the start
To find out where the heartache began

Some people hope for a miracle cure
Some people just accept the world as it is
But I'm not willing to lay down and die

Because I am an innocent man

I am an innocent man
Oh yes I am
An innocent man

It may be happening again... I may be addicted to Billy Joel or something ...

If it seems like I've been lost
In a "let's remember"
If you think I'm feeling older
And missing my younger days...

Oh, then you should have known
Me much better!
'Cause my past is somethin that never -
Got in my way!
Oh no!!

Still I would not be here now,
If i never had the hunger...
And I'm not ashamed to say -
"The wild boys were my friends"
Oh
'Cause I never felt the desire,
'Till their music set me on fire,
And then I was saved, yeah!

That's why I'm keeping the faith!!!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...
Keeping the faith.

I took a fresh pack of Luckies
And a mint called Sen-Sen...
My old man's Trojans,
And his Old Spice aftershave...

Oh!

Combed my hair in a pompadour
Like the rest of the Romeos wore
A permanent wave...
<nods ashamed> Yeah...

We were keeping the faith
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Keeping the faith

You can get just so much
From a good things.

You can linger too long
In your dreams.

Say goodbye to the
Oldies but goodies.

'Cause the good ole days weren't always good.

And tomorrow ain't as bad as it seems!!!

Learned stickball as a formal education.
Lost a lot of fights.
But it taught me how to lose OK.
Oh
I heard about sex
Then heard too much,
I found you could dance -
And still look tough anyway.

Oh yes I did.

I found out a man ain't just being macho.
Ate an awful lot of late night drive-in food.
Drank a lot of take home pay.

I thought I was the Duke Of Earl.
When I made it with a red-haired girl.
In a Chevrolet.

Oh yeah
We were keeping the faith
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Keeping the faith

You know the good ole days weren't always good
And tomorrow ain't as bad as it seems

I told you my reasons
For the whole revival.

Now I'm going outside to have
An ice cold beer in the shade.

Oh

I'm going to listen to my 45's,
Ain't it wonderful to be alive -
When the rock 'n roll plays?

Yeah

When the memory stays

Yeah

I'm keeping the faith

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Keeping the faith

I'm keeping the faith

Yes I am

<the music drops to a slow and steady pace as Remedy's memory recalls all those people who have fallen away - while he sought only to fly...>

You say it was this morning
when you last saw your good friend
Lyin' on the pavement
with a misery on his brain...

Stoned on some new potion
he found upon the wall
Of some unholy bathroom
in some ungodly hall.

He only had a dollar
to live on 'til next Monday
But he spent it
on some comfort for his mind

Did you say you think he's blind?

Someone should call his parents,
a sister or a brother
And they'll come to take him back home
on a bus.

But he'll always be a problem
to his poor and puzzled mother

Yeah he'll always be another one of us

He said he wanted Heaven
but prayin' was too slow
So he bought a one way ticket
on an airline made of snow

Did you say you saw your good friend flyin' low?

Flyin' low

Dyin' slow...

Sunrise doesn't last all morning
A cloudburst doesn't last all day
Seems my love is up and has left you with no warning
It's not always going to be this grey

All things must pass
All things must pass away

Sunset doesn't last all evening
A mind can blow those clouds away
After all this, my love is up and must be leaving
It's not always going to be this grey

All things must pass
All things must pass away
All things must pass
None of life's strings can last
So, I must be on my way
And face another day

Now the darkness only stays the night-time
In the morning it will fade away
Daylight is good at arriving at the right time
It's not always going to be this grey

All things must pass
All things must pass away
All things must pass
All things must pass away

To see the way she feels
Faster than a Sosa homerun
She's gonna get a little huh huh

Look at her now
She wants to take the wheel
She says, 'You dirty dog'
'You want to rock the bop and take it home'

Why oh why am I gonna play
So many times it goes this way
My heart gets blown away
These eyes are blown away

Do you remember how were were
Do you remember summer days
Sometimes I feel like going down down

Walk like a loaded man (down down)
Get the bump to the bump de bump de bump soul (down down)
Move like a thing, swing line a thong
And do your jiggy mama til the break of dawn
Load the rocket, shock it and rock it til you drop
Do the bump to the bump and don't stop

Loaded up from dusk til dawn
I wonder how she feels
Dancin' around with my love
While I'm sitting waiting for the huh huh

Fired up that smoke screen
Red lipstick and high heels
Look at her now
She wants to rock the bop and take it home

Why oh why am I gonna play
So many times it goes this way

These eyes are born again

The smell of your skin can light up all the fires in me
Hungry to touch, I'm eager to please
Out of control and I hand you the keys
Every night I am burning to make love to you

But don't try to tell me you think it's all physical
It goes much deeper than that

You ought to know it's an affair of the heart
It's an affair of the heart, it's an affair of the heart
Have a little blind faith, believe it's an affair of the heart

When we make love it's a passionate thing
You shudder and shake, sink your teeth in my skin
I almost believe you were made to be played by my hands

And you've got the power, it amazes me still
How you play my emotions with consonant skill
I don't have to look any further than into your eyes

So don't try to tell me you think it's just physical
It goes way deeper than that

You better know it's an affair of the heart
It's an affair of the heart, it's an affair of the heart
Have a little blind faith, believe it's an affair of the heart

It's an affair of the heart, it's an affair of the heart
You better know it's an affair of the heart, it's an affair of the heart

All my little plans and schemes,
Lost like some forgotten dreams,
Seems that all I really was doing,
Is waiting for you.

Just like little girls and boys,
Playing with their little toys,
Seems liek all we really were doing,
Is waiting for love.

No need to be alone,
No need to be alone,
It's real love, it's real,
Yes, it's real love, it's real.

From this moment on, I know,
Exactly where my life will go,
Seems that all I really was doing,
Is waiting for love.

No need to be afraid,
No need to be afraid,
It's real love, it's real,
Yes it's real love, it's real.

Thought I'd been in love before,
But in my heart I wanted more,
Seems that all I really was doing,
Is waiting for you.

No need to be alone,
No need to be alone,
It's real love, it's real,
It's real love, it's real,
It's real love, it's real,
It's real love, it's real...

Oh the shark has pretty teeth dear
And he keeps them pearly white
Just a jack-knife has McHeath dear
And he keeps it out of sight

When the shark bites with his teeth dear
Scarlet billows start to spread
Fancy gloves though wears McHeath dear
So there's not a trace of red

On the sidewalk Sunday morning
Lies a body a-just oozing life
Someone's sneaking 'round the corner...

Is that someone Mack the Knife?

From a tugboat by the river
A cement bag's dropping down ...

The cement's just for the weight dear.

Bet you Mackies's back in town.


Louis Miller disappeared dear
After drawing out his cash
And McHeath spends like a sailor...

Did our boy do something rash?

Now the crowds a thinning...
And you better beware.

Now a days girl,

The line forms on the left dear.

Now that Mackie's ... back in town!

Look out cuz old Mac is back!

Ow!

When we wore a heart of stone we wandered to the sea
Hoping to find some comfort there yearning to feel free
And we were mesmerized by the lull of the night and the smells that filled the air
And we layed us down on sandy ground it was cold but
we didn't care

And we were drawn to the rhythm....
drawn to the rhythm of the sea
And we were drawn to the rhythm....
drawn into the rhythm of the sea

We fell asleep and began to dream when something broke the night
Memories stirred inside of us the struggle and the fight
And we could feel the heat of a thousand voices telling
us which way to go
And we cried out is there no escape from the words
that plague us so...

And we were drawn to the rhythm....
drawn to the rhythm of the sea
And we were drawn to the rhythm....
drawn into the rhythm of the sea

In the still and the silent dawn another day is born
Washed up by the tireless waves the body bent and torn
When you wake in the face of the blinding sun
And you search only to find
that heaven is a stranger place than what you've left behind

And we were drawn to the rhythm....
drawn to the rhythm of the sea
And we were drawn to the rhythm....
drawn into the rhythm of the sea

Long time no see
Short time for you and me
We're on the road
Like you knew we would

First night, so long
A state of mind
What can go wrong
We're here, the time is right
To rock 'n' roll
Right through the night

Make it work out
Make it work
Make it work out
Make it work out
For each other tonight

State fright, candle light
You can let go
Tonight's the night
Came back for you
Glad to see
That you came too

There's a place a Gemini dream
There's no escaping from the love we have seen
So come with me, turn night to day
You gonna wake up
You know you gonna wake up in a Gemini dream

Turned round to see
Where we've been
And what we believe
In life, love
Take a chance
See it through
You'll be glad
That you came too

There's a place a Gemini dream
There's no escaping from the love we have seen
So come with me, turn night to day
You gonna wake up
You know you gonna wake up in a Gemini dream

Long time no see
The lights go up
For you and me
We're here
The time is right
To rock 'n' roll
Right through the night

Living it
Believing it
Wanting it
Make it work out
Make it work
Make it work out
Make it work out
For each other tonight

Long time no see
Short time for you and me
So fine so far so good
We're on the road
Like you knew we would

I'm your only friend
I'm not your only friend
But I'm a little glowing friend
But really I'm not actually your friend
But I am

Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
Who watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say I'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

I have a secret to tell
From my electrical well
It's a simple message and I'm leaving out the whistles and bells
So the room must listen to me
Filibuster vigilantly
My name is blue canary one note* spelled l-i-t-e
My story's infinite
Like the Longines Symphonette it doesn't rest

But I'm a little glowing friend
But really I'm not actually your friend

There's a picture opposite me
Of my primitive ancestry
Which stood on rocky shores and kept the beaches shipwreck free
Though I respect that a lot
I'd be fired if that were my job
After killing Jason off and countless screaming Argonauts
Bluebird of friendliness
Like guardian angels its always near

Blue canary in the outlet by the light switch
Who watches over you
Make a little birdhouse in your soul
Not to put too fine a point on it
Say I'm the only bee in your bonnet
Make a little birdhouse in your soul

Keep the nightlight on inside the
Birdhouse in your soul)

Out to the road,
Out 'neath the stars
Feelin' the breeze,
Passin' the cars...

Women have come,
Women have gone.
Everyone tryin' to cage me!

Oh, someone so sweet,
I nearly got free!
Others they only enrage me!

Sometimes at night,
I see their faces.
I feel the traces
They've left on my soul ...

Those are the memories
That make me a wealthy soul.

I tell you
Those are the memories

Love when I can.

Turn in my hand '

Run and tell all of the angels
This could take all night
Think I need a devil to help me get things right
Hook me up a new revolution
Cause this one is a lie
We sat around laughing and watched the last one die

I'm looking to the sky to save me
Looking for a sign of life
Looking for something to help me burn out bright
I'm looking for a complication
Looking cause I'm tired of lying
Make my way back home when I learn to fly

I think I'm done nursing the patience
I can wait one night
I'd give it all away if you give me one last try
We'll live happily ever trapped if you just save my life
Run and tell the angels that everything is alright

Looking for a sign of life

Sometimes I wonder 'bout the pages of my life
As each new chapter comes of age
I set the theme, I spell the words, I rhyme the lines
Then why can't I read what's on the page?

I'm heading on down a one-way highway, searching for a sign
That leads the way, so fast from day to day
I'm heading on down this one-way highway, somewhere down the road
Another morning waits for me, each day another mystery
I'll take it on my own, go there alone

Lately I wonder, what I'm learning on my way
There's so much left I need to know
Life is a river, that's searching for a source
How far do I still have left to go?

I'm heading on down a one-way highway, searching for a sign
That leads the way, so fast from day to day

Looking out to the highway, I search for love, but still I'm alone
What's wrong with me, am I losing ground? I can't find the way back home

Turn the page around, find what I left behind
Now that I'm on my own, it's not what I wanna find
I wanna settle down, I, I turn the page around
I want to find my way back home, why can't I find my way back
Home, home, home, home, oh, oh, oh, oh
I'll find my way back home

Freeze Frame!

<click, click, click!>

I could see it was a rough cut Tuesday,
slow motion weekdays stare me down.
Her lipstick reflex got me wound...
There were no defects to be found!!

Snap shot image froze without a sound...

Thursday morning was a hot flash factor,
her face still focused in my mind...
Test strip proof sheet love is hard to find...
Friday night we danced the spotlight grind...

Stop time heart for me if she's not mine!!!

Freeze frame, freeze frame
freeze frame, freeze frame
freeze frame, freeze frame
freeze frame, I freeze, wha-hooo!

And I freeze...

Now I'm looking at a flashback Sunday,
Zoom lens feeling just won't disappear...
Close up, dark room, sweet talk in my ear...
Her hot spot love for me is strong!!

This freeze frame moment can't be wrong!!

Freeze frame, freeze frame
freeze frame, freeze frame
freeze frame, freeze frame
freeze frame, I freeze, wha-hooo!

Can't be wrong

Freeze frame, freeze frame
freeze frame, freeze frame
freeze frame, freeze frame

These next three songs are for Remedy.

The Rimmer Song


If you're in trouble he'll save the day

He's brave and he's fearless come what may

Without him the mission would go astray




He's Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer

Without him life would be much grimmer

He's handsone, trim and no-one's slimmer

He'll never need a zimmer


He's Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer

More reliable than a garden strimmer

He's never been mistaken for Yul Brynner

He's not bald and his head doesn't glimmer




Master of the wit and the repartee

Command of space directives is uncanny

How come he's such a genious? Don't ask me!




Ask Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer

He's also a fantastic swimmer

And if you play your cards right

Then he might come 'round for dinner




He's Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer

No rhymes left now apart from quimmer

And if they fade us out before we get to schlimer

Fade out you stupid brimmer

Why can't I tell you clearly? (clearly)

Tied-tied, tongue-tongue (tongue tied, tongue tied)

Whenever you're around




I saw you 'cross the dance floor (dancin')

I thought of birds and bees (reproductive system baby)

But when I tried to speak to ya (talk, talk)

My tongue unravelled to my knees (flippety-flippety-flop)

I tried to say "I love you" (love you)

But it came out kind of wrong, girl (wrong girl)

It sounded like "min-oo-bitty-boo" (tongue tied)

Na-nee-ner-ner-nee-nung-nirl




That's 'cause you make me tongue tied (tongue tied) tongue tied

Whenever you are near me (near me)

I'm nurmy-murmy (nurmy-murmy)

Whenever you're in town (in town)

My trousers they go brown, girl

The Red Dwarf Theme Song


[It's cold outside, there's no kind of atmosphere,

I'm all alone, more or less,

Let me fly, far away from here,

Fun, fun, fun in the sun, sun, sun.




I want to lie shipwrecked and comotose,

Drinking fresh mango juice,

Goldfish shoals nibbling at my toes,

Fun, fun, fun in the sun, sun, sun

Fun, fun, fun in the sun, sun, sun.


And with that ending song I have only one thing to say

"Look out Earth, the slime's coming home!"

A space bum's flabby body built from his own genes
Stranded out in space and lacking in hygiene
Forced outside the ship no matter how he'd beg
Floated the last human, named Lister of Smeg
Who never ever learned to read or write so well
But he could play a guitar just like a snugiraffe's yell

No! No!
No, Listy! No! No!
No, Listy! No! No!
No, Listy! No! No!
No, Listy! No! No!
You play like smeg

He used to write songs 'bout Kochanski and try to sing
And Rimmer would garotte him with the third G string
You'll, find him eating curries all his nights and days
Strumming to the rhythms his flatulence made
People passing by they would run away
Saying "Gawd!" (splutter) "Help! Ascension Sunday!"

No! No!
No, Listy! No! No!
No, Listy! No! No!
No, Listy! No! No!
No, Listy! No! No!
You play like smeg

But Rimmer had been just about his only fan
When he had been the leader of a small-time band
But Rimmer didn't like "Om", in truth, not one bit
Which clearly ranked him as a crypto-fascist git
Maybe some day on his headstone they'll write
"Lister, played like smeg alright!"

No! No!
No, Listy! No!
No! No! No, Listy! No!
No! No! No, Listy! No!

Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming Fed to the rules and I

hit the ground running Didn't make sense not to live for fun Your

You're bundled up now but wait 'til you get older But the meteor

More smash mouth

"Walkin' On The Sun"

It ain't no joke I'd like to buy the world a toke And teach the

world to sing in perfect harmony And teach the world to snuff the

fires and the liars Hey I know it's just a song but it's spice for

the recipe This is a love attack I know it went out but it's back.

It's just like any fad it retracts before impact And just like

fashion it's a passion for the with it and hip If you got the goods

they'll come and buy it just to stay in the clique CHORUS: So don't

delay act now supplies are running out Allow if you're still alive

six to eight years to arrive And if you follow there may be a

tomorrow But if the offer's shun you might as well be walkin' on the

sun Twenty-five years ago they spoke out and they broke out Of

recession and oppression and together they toked And they folked out

with guitars around a bonfire Just singin' and clappin' man what the

hell happened Then some were spellbound some were hellbound Some they

fell down and some got back up and Fought back 'gainst the melt down

And their kids were hippie chicks all hypocrites Because fashion is

smashin' the true meaning of it It ain't no joke when a mama's

handkerchief is soaked With her tears because her baby's life has

been revoked The bond is broke up so choke up and focus on the close

up Mr. Wizard can't perform no godlike hocus-pocus So don't sit back

"And now for a deep song"

Voice changes to that of Michael W. Smith. Music starts plaiyin to the tune of "Missing person"

Missing Person

Still searching for that boy who had the faith to move a mountain. Want the fire back.

Another question in me
One for the powers that be
It's got me thrown and so
I Put on my poker face
And try to figure it out
This undeniable doubt
A common occurrence
Feeling so out of place

Guarded and cynical now
Can't help but wondering how
My heart evolved into a
Rock beating inside of me
So I reel, such a stoic ordeal
Where's that feeling that I don't feel?

Chorus:

There was a boy who had the faith to move a mountain
And like a child he would believe without a reason
Without a trace he disappeared into the void and
I've been searching for that missing person

Under a lavender moon
So many thoughts consume me
Who dimmed that glowing light
That once burned so bright in me
Is this a radical phase
A problematical age
That keeps me running
From all that I used to be

Is there a way to return
Is there a way to unlearn
That carnal knowledge
That's chipping away at my soul
I've been gone too long
Will I ever find my way home?

Chorus:

There was a boy who had the faith to move a mountain
And like a child he would believe without a reason
Without a trace he disappeared into the void and
I've been searching for that missing person
He used to want to try to walk the straight and narrow
He had a fire and he could feel it in the marrow
It's been a long time and I haven't seen him lately but
I've been searching for that missing person

I love the time
and inbetween
the calm inside me in the space
where I can breathe

I believe there is a distance
I have wandered to touch upon the years of
reaching out
and reaching in
holding out
holding in.

I believe
this is heaven
to no one else but me
and I'll defend it as long as
I can be
left here to linger
in silence
if I
choose to
would you
try to
understand.

I know this love
is passing time
passing through like liquid
I am drunk in my desire
but I love the way you smile at me
I love the way your hands reach out and
hold me near..

I believe..

I believe
this is heaven
to no one else but me
and I'll defend it as long as
I can be
left here to linger
in silence
if I
choose to
would you
try to
understand.

Oh the quiet child
awaits the day
when she can break free
the mold that clings like desperation.

Mother
can't you see I've got to
live my life the way I feel is
right for me
might not be right for you but it's
right for me..

I believe...

I believe
this is heaven
to no one else but me
and I'll defend it as long as
I can be
left here to linger
in silence
if I
choose to
would you
try to
understand it.

I would
like to
linger
here in
silence
if I
choose to
would you

<He takes the microphone and looks first down at the stage - then to the back of the bar and in to the mirror.>

<His own reflection meets his eyes and he shakes his head. Normally - until last night - he would have seen McHeath>

<He sighs and begins - ever so softly>

<Whispering> God bless all that we love... no matter how foolishly we do so...

Heaven can wait...
And a band of angels wrapped up in my heart,
Will take me through the lonely night...
Through the cold light of day...

And I know,
I know that ...

Heaven can wait...

And all the gods come down here just to sing for me...
And the melody's gonna make me fly
Without pain,
And without fear.

Give me all of your dreams...
And let me go along on your way...
Give me all of your prayers to sing,
And I'll turn the dark night into the bright light of day!

I got a taste of paradise!!
And I'm never gonna let it slip away!
I got a taste of paradise,
And It's all I really need to make me stay...

Just like a child ... again.

Heaven can wait...
And all I got is time,
until the end of time...
And I won't look back,
I don't look back.

Let the altars ... shine!

And I know that I've been released!
But I don't know to where...
And nobody's gonna tell me now,
And I don't really even care...

No, no, no.

I got a taste of paradise and
That's all I really need to make me stay...

I got a taste of paradise!
If I had it any sooner you know!!
You know!!

I never would have run ... away ... from my home.

Heaven can wait.
And all I got is time,
Until the end of time...

I won't look back!
I don't look back.

Let the altars shine!!

Heaven can wait.
Heaven can wait!
And I won't look back
I don't look back!

Let the altars shine!
Let the altars shine!!

My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all
the morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at all
And even if I could it'd all be grey, but your picture on my wall
it reminds me that it's not so bad
it's not so bad

I drank too much last night, got bills to pay
my head just feels in pain
I missed the bus and there'll be hell today
I'm late for work again
and even if I'm there, they'll all imply that I might not last the
day
and then you call me and it's not so bad
it's not so bad and

I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life
Oh just to be with you is having the best day of my life

Push the door, I'm home at last and I'm soaking through and
through
then you handed me a towel and all I see is you
and even if my house falls down now, I wouldn't have a clue
because you're near me and

I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life

Look around wonder why
we can live a life that's never satisfied
Lonely hearts troubled minds
looking for a way that we can never find
Many roads are ahead of us
with choices to be made
But life's just one of the
games we play
There is no special way
Make the best of what's given you
everything will come in time
why deny yourself
don't just let life pass you by
like winter in July

Future dreams can never last
when you find yourself still living in the past
Keep moving on to higher ground
looking for the way you thought could not be found
We may not know the reason why
we're born into this world
where a man only lives to die
his story left untold
Make the best of what's given you
everything will come in time
why deny yourself
don't just let life pass you by
like winter in July


And we may not know the reason why
we're born into this world

<smirks> It's not often you find a song you can send out from the heart to God, Jag and the Universal Agents of Creation entire... so when you find one - it's probably best to just sing it as perfectly and clearly as you know how.

And you'll have to forgive my mood. It's too odd today for words to emulate in explanation.

<The music begins - it's a slow and gentle, soothing melody>

If it be your will...
That I speak no more...
And my voice be still...
As it was before...

I will speak no more.

I shall abide until...
I am spoken for.
If it be your will.


If it be your will,
That a voice be true,
From this broken hill -
I will sing to you.

From this broken hill,
All your praises they shall ring...
If it be your will,
To let me sing.

If it be your will,
If there is a choice...
Let the rivers fill!
Let the hills rejoice!

Let your mercy spill,
On all these burning hearts in hell...
If it be your will,
To make us well.

And draw us near...
And bind us tight.
All your children here,
In their rags of light...

In our rags of light,
All dressed to kill.
And end this night...
If it be your will.

If it be ... your ... will.

Cause I'm waiting by the phone
Waiting for you to call me up and tell me I'm not alone
Cause I want somebody to shove
I need somebody to shove

When there's a part of you,
That needs to run with the wind?

And the fire of burning yesterdays,
Can only light the way,
To lead you from,
The garden of the dark!!
Stay out of shadows!

Now look like the change is on!
Tomorrow's never gone!
Today just never comes...

Go on and jump, yeah!
Into the hurricane!!
You will forget the pain!
It's only there -
To exorcise your mind!

Looking at the world,
When you've open up your eyes!
You've got to see the promises they've made,
They're bloody lies and broken dreams!!
Your silence screams!!

You're living in a time machine!
And you can choose just who you are!
Someone that you've never seen!
Somewhere you've never been!
You're living in a time machine!!

When you've opened up your eyes,
You'll see you've got invisible chains!
They're only lies!!
Not what it seems!

I hear your silent screams!!

You're living in a time machine!
Nobody cares just where you go!
Taken where you've never been!!
Going ... somewhere you don't know!

Why do you stay who you are?
Be what you've never been!!

Shoulda seen it coming when the roses died,
Shoulda seen the end of Summer in your eyes,
Shoulda listened when you said goodnight,
You really meant goodbye.

Baby ain't it funny how we never ever learn to fall?
You're really on your knees,
When you think you're standing tall,
But only fools are know-it-alls,
And I played that fool for you.

I cried and I cried,
There were nights that I died for you, baby,
I tried and I tried to deny,
Your love drove me crazy.

If the love that I've got for you's gone,
If the river I've cried ain't that long,
Then I'm wrong, yeah I'm wrong,
This ain't a love song...

Baby, I thought you and me would stand the test of time,
Like we got away with the perfect crime,
We were just a legend in my mind,
I guess that I was blind.

Remember those nights dancing at the masquerade?
The clowns wore smiles that wouldn't fade,
You and I were the renegades,
Some things never change.

It made me so mad,
'Cause I wanted it bad for us baby,
And now it's so sad that whatever we had ain't worth saving...

If the love that I've got for you's gone,
If the river I've cried ain't that long,
Then I'm wrong, yeah I'm wrong,
This ain't a love song.

If the pain that I'm feeling so strong,
Is the reason I'm holding on,
Then I'm wrong, yeah I'm wrong,
This ain't a love song.

Taken years ago...

Turned around backwards so the windshield shows,
Every street light reveals a picture in reverse.
Still its so much clearer...

The moon is low tonight...

Night swimming,

Of recklessness in water
"They cannot see me naked..."

Side by side in orbit
Around the ferris sign?

Tell them about the time we did it at the beach with fireworks above us

On the railroad tracks with the gravel in your back
In the backroom of a crowded bar
And in the very graveyard where my body now rests

See how the sky is made of sapphire,
the colours flowing through our hands...
The moon is fire in your hair,
a million miles beyond what science understands.

Smell that mountain heaven,
I don't remember ever,
feeling like this before...

Mercy me, I'm falling free!
Since you opened up the door.

And if every window pane should shatter
if every wall should fall apart...

Well it might hurt a bit -
but would it matter
to this diamond in my heart?

There's no need to nail it to the ground.
There's no need to smother it with sense.

Just listen to the rhythm of your heart
that pounds and trust it all to chance.

She's got a way of pleasin',
I don't know what it is...
But there doesn't have to be a reason,
Anyway...

She's got a smile that heals me,
I don't know why it is...
But I have to laugh when she reveals me!

She's got a way of talkin',
I don't know what it is...
But it lifts me up when we are walkin',
Anywhere...

She comes to me when I'm feelin' down,
Inspires me without a sound...
She touches me and I get turned around!

She's got a way of showin',
How I make her feel...
And I find the strength to keep on goin',

She's got a light around her.
And everywhere she goes,
A million dreams of love surround her...
Everywhere...

She comes to me when I'm feelin' down,
Inspires me without a sound,
She touches me and I get turned around!

She's got a smile that heals me,
I don't know why it is.
But I have to laugh when she reveals me...

She's got a way about her,
I don't know what it is.
But I know that I can't live without her...
Anyway...

*Walks on the stage, face wet with tears*

Sometimes I
Need to remember just to breathe
Sometimes I
Need you to stay away from me


*Sniffs as a single tear falls*

Sometimes I'm
In disbelief I didn't know
Somehow I
Need you to go


*Not being able to hold back the tears any longer, they stream*

Sometimes I
Feel like I trusted you too well
Sometimes I
Just feel like screaming at myself
Sometimes I'm
In disbelief I didn't know


*Pauses to control herself*

Somehow I
Need to be alone


*Trying not to break down on the stage, her voice cracks*

Don't stay
Forget our memories
Forget our possibilities


*She looks out but sees nothing through the tears*

What you were changing me into
(Just give me myself back and)
Don't Stay

I-


*her throat catches*

don't...

*A small sound of frustration leaves here throat*

With no apologies.

*Not able to finish the song, she rushes off stage, hoping to be alone*

<He slips up to it and eyes the microphone, then turns to the kareoke machine and presses two buttons>

Sometimes I feel,
Like I don't have a partner...

Sometimes I feel,
Like my only friend...

Is the city I live in,
The city of angels...

Lonely as I am,
Together we cry...


I drive on her streets,
cause she's my companion...

I walk through her hills,
cause she knows who I am...

She sees my good deeds,
And she kisses me windy,
I never worry.

Now that is a lie.

And...

I don't ever want to feel,
Like I did that day...

Take me to the place I love,
Take me all the way...


It's hard to believe,
That there's nobody out there...

It's hard to believe,
That I'm all alone...

At least I have her love,
The city she loves me...

Lonely as I am,
Together we cry...


I don't ever want to feel,
Like I did that day...

Take me to the place I love,
Take me all that way...

Under the bridge downtown,
Is where I drew some blood...

Under the bridge downtown,
I could not get enough...

Under the bridge downtown,
Forgot about my love...

Under the bridge downtown,
I gave my life away...

When the day is long and the night,
the night is yours alone,
when you're sure you've had enough of this life,
well hang on.
Don't let yourself go,
everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes.

Sometimes everything is wrong.
Now it's time to sing along.

When your day is night alone,
(hold on, hold on)
if you feel like letting go,
(hold on)
when you think you've had too much of this life,
well hang on.

Everybody hurts.
Take comfort in your friends.
Everybody hurts.
Don't throw your hand.
Oh, no.
Don't throw your hand.
If you feel like you're alone,
no, no, no,
you are not alone

If you're on your own in this life,
the days and nights are long,
when you think you've had too much of this life
to hang on.

Well,
everybody hurts sometimes,
everybody cries.
And everybody hurts sometimes.

And everybody hurts sometimes.
So, hold on, hold on.

Hold on, hold on.

Hold on, hold on.

Hold on, hold on.

This circus is falling down on its knees...
The big top is crumbling down.

It's raining in Baltimore fifteen miles east,
Where you should be,
but ...no one's around.

I need a phone call.
I need a raincoat.
I need a big love.
I need a phone call.

These train conversations are passing me by,
And I don't have nothing to say.
You get what you pay for,
But I just had no ... intention of living this way.

I need a phone call.
I need a plane ride.
I need a sunburn.
I need a raincoat.

And I get no answers,
And I don't get no change,

It's raining in Baltimore, baby,
But everything else is the same.

There's things I remember... things I forget...

I miss you,
I guess that I should.

Three thousand five hundred miles away..
But what would you change if you could?

I need a phone call.

Maybe I should buy a new car.

I can always hear a freight train.

Baby, if I listen real hard...

And I wish... I wish it was a small world!

Because I'm lonely for the big towns.

I'd like to hear a little guitar.

I guess it's time to put the top down.

I need a phone call.
I need a raincoat.
Really need a raincoat.
Really really need a raincoat.

Really really really need a raincoat ...

Really need a raincoat...

Re: Kareoke Bar!!
Post by insanepenman on May 26, 2004, 8:44pm

Gah. Ye people gotta quit mentioning songs on here. Curiosity always gets the best of me. *sigh*

Early one mornin' the sun was shining,
I was layin' in bed,
Wonderin' if she'd changed at all,
If her hair was still red.
Her folks they said our lives together
Sure was gonna be rough,
They never did like Mama's home made dress,
Papa's bank book wasn't big enough.
And I was standin' on the side of the road,
Rain fallin' on my shoes,
Headin' out for the east coast
Lord knows I've paid some dues
Gettin' through,
Tangled up in blue.

She was married when we first met,
Soon to be divorced,
I helped her out of a jam I guess
But I used a little too much force.
We drove that car as far as we could
Abandoned it out west,
Split up on a dark sad night
Both agreeing it was best.
Well she turned around and looked at me
As I was walkin' away,
I heard her say over my shoulder,
We'll meet again some day
On the avenue,
Tangled up in blue.

I had a job in the great north woods,
Workin' as a cook for a spell,
But I never did like it all that much
And one day the axe just fell.
So I drifted down to New Orleans,
Where I lucky was to be employed,
Workin' for a while on a fishing boat
Right outside of Delacroix.
But all the while I was alone,
The past was close behind,
I seen a lot of women
But she never escaped my mind
And I just grew
Tangled up in blue.

She was workin' in a topless place,
And I stopped in for a beer,
I just kept lookin' at the side of her face
And the spotlight so clear.
And later on when the crowd thinned out,
I was just about to do the same,
She was standing there in back of my chair,
Said to me don't I know your name,
I muttered something underneath my breath
She stared at the lines of my face.
I must admit I felt a little uneasy
When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoes,
Tangled up in blue.

She lit a burner on the stove,
And offered me a pipe,
I thought you'd never say hello she said,
You look like the silent type.
Then she opened up a book of poems,
And handed it to me,
Written by an Italian poet from the thirteenth century.
And every one of them words rang true
And glowed like burnin' coal,
Pourin' off of every page
Like it was written in my soul
From me to you,
Tangled up in blue.

I lived with them on Montague Street
In a basement down the stairs,
There was music in the cafes at night
And revolution in the air.
Then he started into dealin' with slaves,
And something inside of him died,
She had to sell everything she owned
And froze up inside.
And when finally the bottom fell out,
I became withdrawn,
The only thing I knew how to do was to keep on keepin' on
Like a bird that flew
Tangled up in blue.

So now I'm goin' back again,
I got to get to her somehow,
All the people we used to know,
They're an illusion to me now.
Some are mathematicians,
Some are carpenters' wives,
Don't know how it got started,
Don't know what they're doin' with their lives.
But me I'm still on the road
Headin' for another joint,
We always did feel the same
We just saw it from a different point
Of view,
Tangled up in blue.

No more timing each tear that falls from my eyes
I'm not hiding the remedy to cure this old heart of mine

I can dream about you
If I can't hold you tonight
I can dream about you
You know how to hold me just right

Moving sidewalks, I don't see under my feet
Rising up from down here below where the streets see
me lonely for you.

I can dream about you
If I can't hold you tonight
I can dream about you
You know how to hold me just right

I don't understand it
I can't keep my mind off loving you
Ooo, now baby, I'm caught up in the magic I see in you
There's one thing to do

I can dream about you
If I can't hold you tonight
I can dream about you
You know how to hold me just right

Moving sidewalks, I don't see under my feet
Rising up from the pain in my heart, cause it's you
that I need

I can dream about you
If I can't hold you tonight
I can dream about you
You know how to hold me just right

Yeee-haw - Ya'll!!!

Forty seven dead beats living in the back street
north east west south all in the same house
sitting in a back room waiting for the big boom
I'm in a bedroom waitng for my baby

She's so mean but I don't care
I love her eyes and her wild wild hair
dance to the beat that we love best
heading for the nineties
living in the wild wild west
the wild wild west

Mandy's in the backroom handing out valium
sheriff's on the airwaves talking to the D.J.'s
Forty seven heartbeats beating like a drum
got to live it up live it up
Ronnie's got a new gun

She's so mean but I don't care
I love her eyes and her wild wild hair
dance to the beat that we love best
heading for the nineties
living in the wild wild west
the wild wild west

Now put your flags in the air and march them up and down
you can live it up live it up all over the town
and turn to the left, turn to the right
I don't care as long as she comes tonight

She's so mean but I don't care
I love her eyes and her wild wild hair
dance to the beat that we love best
heading for the nineties
living in the wild wild west
the wild wild west

Heading for the nineties living in the eighties
screaming in a back room waiting for the big boom
give me give me wild west
give me give me safe sex
give me love give me love
give me time to live it up

Does anyone else feel energetic tonight?

...Me neither, but I'm in a good mood.

The sirens are screaming and the fires are howling
Way down in the valley tonight
There's a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye
And a blade shining oh so bright
There's evil in the air and there's thunder in the sky
And a killer's on the bloodshot streets
And down in the tunnel where the deadly are rising
Oh I swear I saw a young boy
Down in the gutter
He was starting to foam in the heat

Oh Baby you're the only thing in this whole world
that's pure and good and right
And wherever you are and wherever you go
There's always gonna be some light
But I gotta get out
I gotta break it out now
Before the final crack of dawn
So we gotta make the most of our one night together
When it's over you know
We'll both be so alone

Like a bat out of hell
I'll be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone gone gone
Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes
But when the day is done
And the sun goes down
And the moonlight's shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I'll come crawling on back to you

I'm gonna hit the highway like a battering ram
On a silver black phantom bike
When the metal is hot and the engine is hungry
And we're all about to see the light
Nothing ever grows in this rotten old hole
Everything is stunted and lost
And nothing really rocks
And nothing really rolls
And nothing's ever worth the cost
And I know that I'm damned if I never get out
And maybe I'm damned if I do
But with every other beat I got left in my heart
You know I'd rather be damned with you
If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Dancing through the night with you
If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
If Gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Dancing through the night
Dancing through the night
Dancing through the night with you

Oh Baby you're the only thing in this whole world
that's pure and good and right
And wherever you are and wherever you go
There's always gonna be some light
But I gotta get out
I gotta break it out now
Before the final crack of dawn
So we gotta make the most of our one night together
When it's over you know
We'll both be so alone

Like a bat out of hell
I'll be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone gone gone
Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes
But when the day is done
And the sun goes down
And the moonlight's shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I'll come crawling on back to you
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I'll come crawling on back to you

I can see myself tearing up the road
Faster than any other boy has ever gone
And my skin is raw but my soul is ripe
And no one's gonna stop me now
I gotta make my escape
But I can't stop thinking of you
And I never see the sudden curve until it's way too late
I never see the sudden curve till it's way too late

Then I'm dying on the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike
And I think somebody somewhere is tolling a bell
And the last thing I see is my heart
Still beating
Breaking out of my body
And flying away
Like a bat out of hell
Then I'm dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike
And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell
And the last thing I see is my heart
Still beating
Still beating
Breaking out of my body and flying away
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell

Time for the damn songs taht get stuck in my head at the theater...

From Shrek 2

She said "i've gotta be honest,
You're wasteing your time if you're fishing round here."
And i said "you must be mistaken,
Cause i'm not fooling...this feeling is real"
She said...she said "you gotta be crazy,
What do you take me for? Some kind of easy mark?
" No, you've got wits, you've got looks,
You've got passion, but I swear that you've got me all wrong."

All wrong.
All wrong.
But you got me...

I'll be true, i'll be useful...
I'll be cavalier...i'll be yours my dear.
And i'll belong to you...
If you'll just let me through.
This is easy as lovers go,
So don't complicate it by hesitating.
And this is wonderful as loving goes,
This is tailor-made, whats the sense in waiting?

And i said "i've gotta be honest
I've been waiting for you all my life."
For so long i thought i was asylum bound,
But just seeing you makes me think twice.
And being with you here makes me sane,
I fear i'll go crazy if you leave my side.
You've got wits...you've got looks,
You've got passion but are you brave enough to leave with me tonight?

Tonight.
Tonight.
But you've got me...

I'll be true, i'll be useful...
I'll be cavalier...i'll be yours my dear.
And i'll belong to you...
If you'll just let me through.
This is easy as lovers go,
So don't complicate it by hesitating.

<Rem quickly erects a cross on stage - not to offend any of his Christian audience - he prays they forgive him - instead - to amuse his Monty Python loving friends>

<Then he momentarily crucifies himself and begins to sing>

Some things in life are bad,
They can really make you mad!
Other things just make you swear
and curse!

When you're chewing on
life's gristle
Don't grumble,
give a whistle!

And this'll help things turn out for the best...

And...

...always lood on the bright side
of life...

(Whistle)

Always look on the light side
of life...

(Whistle)

If life seems jolly rotten -
There's something you've forgotten,

And that's to laugh and smile and
dance and sing!

When you're feeling in the dumps,
Don't be silly chumps!

Just purse your lips and whistle
- that's the thing.

And...always look on the bright
side of life...

(Whistle)

Come on.

Always look on the bright side
of life...

(Whistle)

For life is quite absurd,
And death's the final word,

You must always face the curtain
with a bow!

Forget about your sin - give the
audience a grin!

Enjoy it - it's your last chance
anyhow.

So always look on the bright side
of death

Just before you draw your
terminal breath

Life's a piece of shit

When you look at it

Life's a laugh and death's a joke

it's true

You'll see it's all a show

Keep 'em laughing as you go

Just remember that the last laugh
is on you

And always look on the bright side
of life...

(Whistle)

Always look on the right side
of life...

(Whistle)

Come on guys, cheer up.

Always look on the bright side
of life...

Always look on the bright side
of life...

Worse things happen at sea you know.

Always look on the bright side
of life...

I mean - what have you got to lose?

You know, you come from nothing
- you're going back to nothing.
What have you lost? Nothing.

Always look on the right side
of life...

<Rem limps on to stage>

I ache for the touch of your lips, dear
But much more for the touch of your whips, dear
You can raise welts
Like nobody else
As we dance to The Masochism Tango

Let our love be a flame, not an ember
Say it's me that you want to dismember
Blacken my eye
Set fire to my tie
As we dance to The Masochism Tango

At your command
Before you here I stand
My heart is in my hand... (yeechh)
It's here that I must be

My heart entreats
Just hear those savage beats
And go put on your cleats
And come and trample me

Your heart is hard as stone or mahogany
That's why I'm in such exquisite agony
My soul is on fire
It's aflame with desire
Which is why I perspire when we tango

You caught my nose
In your left castanet, love
I can feel the pain yet, love
Every time I hear drums

And I envy the rose
That you held in your teeth, love
With the thorns underneath, love
Sticking into your gums

Your eyes cast a spell that bewitches
The last time I needed twenty stitches
To sew up the gash
You made with your lash
As we danced to The Masochism Tango

Bash in my brain
And make me scream with pain
Then kick me once again
And say we'll never part

I know too well
I'm underneath your spell
So darling if you smell
Something burning it's my heart
(hiccup) 'Scuse me

Take your cigarette from it's holder
And burn your initials in my shoulder
Fracture my spine
And swear that you're mine
As we dance to The Masochism Tango

And now for something completely different...

<smirks>

She said she'd meet me in the bar
At the Plaza Hotel...

"Wear a jacket and a tie"
"What's the occasion?"
She just smiled and she wouldn't say why...

So here I am standing, waiting in the lobby,
Sweating bullets in this stupid old suit.
And when she sees me she busts out laughing...
"You're a sad sight honey, but you look so cute" and

I don't want to be alone anymore
I was checking you out
I was just making sure

No, I don't want to be alone anymore
And, I want you tonight
Although you hurt me before.

It didn't matter that I felt like a fool
'Cause I forgot when she walked through the door...
I said I'm sorry, but she said it was cool,
And "I don't want to be alone anymore"

It's so confusing choosing sides,
In the heat of the moment,
Just to see if it's real.

It's so erotic having you
Tell me how it should feel...

But I'm avoiding all the hard cold facts
That I've got to face,

So ask me just one question
When this magic night is through...

Could it have been just anyone
Or did it have to be you...

And, will you still be saying--

I don't want to be alone anymore
I was checking you out
I was just making sure

No, I don't want to be alone anymore
And, I want you tonight
Although you hurt me before

It didn't matter that I felt like a fool,
'Cause I forgot when she walked through the door...

I said "I'm sorry", but she said it was cool,
And I don't want to be alone anymore.

But, don't you know that it's wrong
It's wrong, it's wrong...

But like the song
Being caught by the wink of an eye

I can't be sure we'll get along
But I'm willing to try

As long as you can tell me--

I don't want to be alone anymore
I was checking you out
I was just making sure

No, I don't want to be alone anymore
And, I want you tonight
Although you hurt me before

It didn't matter that I felt like a fool
'Cause I forgot when she walked through the door...

I said I'm sorry, but she said it was cool
And I don't want to be alone anymore

Oh you sweet thing!!
Do I what?

Oh baby! You know what I like!!

Chantilly lace and a pretty face,
And a pony tail hanging down!
A wiggle in the walk and giggle in the talk.
Makes the world go round, round, round!

There ain't nothing in the world like a big eyed girl,
To make me act so funny and spend my money
Make me feel real loose like a long necked goose...
Oh baby! that's what I like!

What's that baby?
But, but, but, oh honey...
But, oh baby you know what I like...

Take a little walk to the edge of town
Go across the tracks
Where the viaduct looms,
like a bird of doom
As it shifts and cracks
Where secrets lie in the border fires,
in the humming wires
Hey man, you know
you're never coming back
Past the square, past the bridge,
past the mills, past the stacks
On a gathering storm comes
a tall handsome man
In a dusty black coat with
a red right hand


He'll wrap you in his arms,
tell you that you've been a good boy
He'll rekindle all the dreams
it took you a lifetime to destroy
He'll reach deep into the hole,
heal your shrinking soul
Hey buddy, you know you're
never ever coming back
He's a god, he's a man,
he's a ghost, he's a guru
They're whispering his name
through this disappearing land
But hidden in his coat
is a red right hand


You ain't got no money?
He'll get you some
You ain't got no car? He'll get you one
You ain't got no self-respect,
you feel like an insect
Well don't you worry buddy,
cause here he comes
Through the ghettos and the barrio
and the bowery and the slum
A shadow is cast wherever he stands
Stacks of green paper in his
red right hand


(Organ solo)


You'll see him in your nightmares,
you'll see him in your dreams
He'll appear out of nowhere but
he ain't what he seems
You'll see him in your head,
on the TV screen
And hey buddy, I'm warning
you to turn it off
He's a ghost, he's a god,
he's a man, he's a guru
You're one microscopic cog
in his catastrophic plan
Designed and directed by
his red right hand


(Organ solo)

He's a...

He's mumbling words you can't understand
He's mumbling word behind his red right hand

And I'm half crazy,
Come on and love me baby!

So you find me hard to handle,
well I'm easier to hold!

So you like my spurs that jingle
and I never leave you cold!

So I might steal your diamonds,
I'll bring you back some gold
I'm no angel ...

No I'm no angel,
No I'm no stranger to the dark
Let me rock your cradle,
Let me start a fire with your spark!

Oh come on baby,
Come and let me show you my tatoo! <downward glance>
Let me drive you crazy,
Come on and love me baby!

So you don't give a darn about me,
I never treat you bad
I won't ever lift a hand to hurt you
& I'll always leave you glad

So I might steal your diamonds
I'll bring you back some gold
I'm no angel...


No I'm no angel,
No I'm no stranger to the dark
Let me rock your cradle,
Let me start a fire with your spark

Stood there boldly
Sweatin’ in the sun
Felt like a million
Felt like number one
The height of summer
I’d never felt that strong
Like a rock

I was eighteen
Didn’t have a care
Working for peanuts
Not a dime to spare
But I was lean and
Solid everywhere
Like a rock

My hands were steady
My eyes were clear and bright
My walk had purpose
My steps were quick and light
And I held firmly
To what I felt was right
Like a rock

Like a rock, I was strong as I could be
Like a rock, nothin’ ever got to me
Like a rock, I was something to see
Like a rock

And I stood arrow straight
Unencumbered by the weight
Of all these hustlers and their schemes
I stood proud, I stood tall
High above it all
I still believed in my dreams

Twenty years now
Where’d they go?
Twenty years
I don’t know
Sit and I wonder sometimes
Where they’ve gone

And sometimes late at night
When I’m bathed in the firelight
The moon comes callin’ a ghostly white
And I recall
Recall

Like a rock. standin’ arrow straight
Like a rock, chargin’ from the gate
Like a rock, carryin’ the weight
Like a rock

Lihe a rock, the sun upon my skin
Like a rock, hard against the wind
Like a rock, I see myself again
Like a rock

Spare a little candle
Save some light for me
figures up ahead
Moving in the trees
White skin in linen
Perfume on my wrist
And the full moon that hangs over
these dreams in the mist
Darkness on the edge
Shadows where I stand
I search for the time
On a watch with no hands
I want to see you clearly
Come closer than this
But all I remember
Are the dreams in the mist
These dreams go on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night I live another life
These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away

Is it cloak 'n dagger
Could it be spring or fall
I walk without a cut
Through a stained glass wall
Weaker in my eyesight
The candle in my grip
And words that have no form
Are falling from my lips

These dreams go on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night I live another life
These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away

There's something out there
I can't resist
I need to hide away from the pain
There's something out there
I can't resist
The sweetest song is silence
That I've ever heard
Funny how your feet
In dreams never touch the earth
In a wood full of princes
Freedom is a kiss
But the prince hides his face
From dreams in the mist

These dreams go on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night I live another life
These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away

These dreams go on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night I live another life
These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away

And may sunshine and happiness surround you when you're far from home.

May you grow to be proud, dignified, and true,
And do unto others as you'd have done to you.

Be courageous and be brave,
And in my heart you'll always stay

Forever young
Forever young
Forever young
Forever young

May good fortune be with you and may your guiding light be strong,
Build a stairway to heaven with a prince or a vagabond

And may you never love in vain,
And in my heart you will remain

Forever young
Forever young
Forever young
Forever young

When you finally fly away I'll be hoping that I served you well,
For all the wisdom of a lifetime no one can ever tell.

But whatever road you choose,
I'm right behind you win or lose.

If I only had the words to tell you
If you only had the time to understand
Though I know it wouldn't change your feelings
And I know you'll carry on the best you can.

If I only had the urge to tell you
If you only knew how hard it is to say
When the simple lines have all been taken
And the radio repeats them ev'ry day.

If I never find the song to sing you
If you always find it hard to comprehend
Well, you know there wouldn't be much meaning
If I had to sing those tired words again.

Life goes on and on
And tonight will soon be gone
But if we try we can be sure.

If I only had the words to tell you
If you only had the time to understand
But I only have these arms to hold you
And it's all that you can ask of any man.

La la la la, la la la la

If I only had the words to tell you
If you only had the time to understand
Oh, but I only have these arms to hold you
And it's all that you can ask of any man.

When you look into my eyes
And you see the crazy gypsy in my soul
It always comes as a surprise
When I feel my withered roots begin to grow
Well I never had a place that I could call my very own
That's all right, my love, 'cause you're my home

When you touch my weary head
And you tell me everything will be all right
You say, "Use my body for your bed
And my love will keep you warm throughout the night"
Well I'll never be a stranger and I'll never be alone
Whenever we're together, that's my home

Home can be the Pennsylvania Turnpike
Indiana's early morning dew
High up in the hills of California
Home is just another word for you

Well I never had a place that I could call my very own
That's all right, my love, 'cause you're my home

If I travel all my life
And I never get to stop and settle down
Long as I have you by my side
There's a roof above and good walls all around
You're my castle, you're my cabin and my instant pleasure dome
I need you in my house 'cause you're my home.
You're my home.

<Remedy sets down his counting thread pop-corn bag long enough to long for a bit ... and then to sing - badly, badly , horribly in fact... off key.>

<Luckily it was loud enough not to matter much>

And even thought the moment passed me by...
I still can’t turn away.

’Cause all the dreams you never thought you’d lose,
Got tossed along the way.

And letters that you never meant to send,
Get lost or thrown away.

And now we’re grown-up orphans,
That never knew their names!

We don’t belong to no one!
That’s a shame!

But you could hide beside me!
Maybe for a while!

And I won’t tell no one your name...
And I won’t tell ’em your name,

Scars are souvenirs you never lose.
The past is never far.

Did you lose yourself somewhere out there?
Did you get to be a star?

And don’t it make you sad to know that "life"
Is more than who we are...

You grew up way too fast!
And now there’s nothing to believe!

And reruns all become our history...

A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio...

And I won’t tell no one your name,
But I want to tell ’em your name...

I won’t tell ’em your name...
Mmm, mmm… mmm mmm
I won’t tell 'em your name…ow!

I think about you all the time...
But I don’t need to sing.

If it’s lonely where you are,
Then come back down...

Because I want to tell ’em your name ...

<Remedy pulls himself together and becomes Fivel - the mouse from American Tail>

Somewhere out there
Beneath the pale moonlight
Someone's thinkin' of me
Aand loving me tonight

Somewhere out there
Someone's saying a prayer
That we'll find one another
In that big somewhere out there

And even though I know how very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishin' on the same bright star
And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby
It helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky

Somewhere out there if love can see us through
Then we'll be together
Somewhere out there
Out where dreams come true

I went to your house,
Walked up the stairs,
I opened your door without ringing a bell.

I walked down the hall,
Into your room,

Where I could smell you!!

And I...
Shouldn't be here,
Without Permission.

Shouldn't be here...

Would you forgive me love?
If I danced in your shower?

Would you forgive me love?
If I laid in your bed?

Would you forgive me love?

If I stayed all afternoon??

I took off my clothes,
Put on your robe,
Went through your drawers and I found your cologne...

Went down to the den,
Found your CD's,
And I played your Johnny... (Johnny Rotton/Sex Pistols) <smirk>

And I...
Shouldn't stay long.
You might be home soon.
I...
Shouldn't stay long...

Would you forgive me love,
If I danced in your shower?
Would you forgive me love,
If I laid in your bed?

Would you forgive me love?
If I stayed all afternoon?

I burned your incense.
I ran a bath.

I noticed a letter that sat on your desk...

It said "hHello love,
I love you so love,
Meet me at midnight!!"

And no!

It wasn't my writing.

I better go soon.

It wasn't my writing...

So forgive me love,

If I cry in your shower.

So forgive me love,

For the salt in your bed...

So forgive me love,

If I cry all afternoon...

(Alanis Morisette - Hidden Track from Jagged Little Pill - "Forgive Me Love")

Okay, I've been an '80s nut for over a year now, and I've listened to all kinds, but new wave has always been my favorite, what with Billy Idol and Corey Hart and Blondie. Thus, imagine my glee when I heard this song on the radio for the first time. A veritable blast from the past and my new favorite song: "Somebody Told Me" by the Killers.

*lights go down, and synthesizers start up*

Breaking my back just to know your name
Seventeen tracks and I've had it with this game
I'm breaking my back just to know your name
But heaven ain't close in a place like this
Anything goes but don't blink you might miss
Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this
I said heaven ain't close in a place like this
Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight
Never thought I'd let a rumour ruin my moonlight

Well somebody told me
You had a boyfriend
Who looks like a girlfriend
That I had in February of last year
It's not confidential
I've got potential

Ready? Let's roll onto something new
Taking its toll and I'm leaving without you
Ready? Let's roll onto something new
But heaven ain't close in a place like this
Anything goes but don't blink you might miss

Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this
I said heaven ain't close in a place like this
Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight
Never thought I'd let a rumour ruin my moonlight

Well somebody told me
You had a boyfriend
Who looks like a girlfriend
That I had in February of last year
It's not confidential
I've got potential
A rushin', a rushin' around

Pace yourself from me
I said maybe baby please
But I just don't know now

Somebody told me

Making my way downtown
Walking fast
Faces passed
And I'm home bound

Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making my way
Through the crowd

And I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder....

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you
Tonight

It's always times like these
When I think of you
And I wonder
If you ever
Think of me

'Cause everything's so wrong
And I don't belong
Living in your
Precious memories

'Cause I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder....

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you

And I, I
Don't want to let you know
I, I
Drown in your memory
I, I
Don't want to let this go
I, I
Don't....

Walking fast
Faces passed
And I'm home bound

Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making my way
Through the crowd

And I still need you
And I still miss you
And now I wonder....

If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass us by
'Cause you know I'd walk
A thousand miles
If I could
Just see you...

If I could fall

And she takes another step
slowly she opens the door
check that he is sleeping
pick up all the broken glass
and furniture on the floor
been up half the night screaming
now it's time to get away
pack up the kids in the car
another bruise to try and hide
another alibi to write
another ditch in the road
you keep moving
another stop sign
you keep moving on
and the years go by so fast
wonder how I ever made it through

And there are children to think of
baby's asleep in the back seat
wonder how they'll ever make it
through this living nightmare
but the mind is an amazing thing
full of candy dreams and new toys
and another cheap hotel
two beds and a coffee machine
but there are groceries to buy
and she knows she'll have to go home

Another ditch in the road
you keep moving
another stop sign
you keep moving on
and the years go by so fast
wonder how I ever made it through

Another bruise to try and hide
another alibi to write
another lonely highway in the black of night
there's hope in the darkness
I know you're gonna make it

Another ditch in the road
keep moving
another stop sign
you keep moving on
and the years go by so fast
silent fortress built to last
wonder how I ever made it

Hello...
Is it late there?
Is there laughter on the line
Are you sure you're there alone?
Cuz i'm
Trying to explain
Something's wrong
You just don't sound the same

Why don't you
Why don't you
Go outside
Go outside

Kiss the rain
Whenever you need me
Kiss the rain
Whenever i'm gone too long
If your lips feel lonely and thirsty
Kiss the rain
And wait for the dawn
Keep in mind
We're under the same sky
And the night's
As empty for me as for you
If you feel
You can't wait till morning
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain

Hello...
Do you miss me?
I hear you say you do
But not the way i'm missing you

What's new
How's the weather
Is it stormy where you are
You sound so close but it feels like you're so far
Oh would it mean anything
If you knew
What i'm left imagining
In my mind
My mind
Would you go
Would you go

Kiss the rain

As you fall
Over me
Think of me
Think of me
Think of me
Only me
Kiss the rain
Whenever you need me
Kiss the rain
Whenever i'm gone too long
If your lips
Feel hungry and tempted
Kiss the rain
And wait for the dawn
Keep in mind
We're under the same sky
And the night's
As empty for me as for you
If you feel you can't wait till morning
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain
Kiss the rain

Know the sound
of each rock and stone
and I embrace what others fear.
You are not to roam in this forgotten place,
just the likes of me are welcome here.
Everything breathes and I know each breath
for me it means life
for others its death
perfectly balanced
perfectly planned
more than enough for this man

Like every tree,
stands on its own
reaching for the sky I stand alone
I share my world with no one else
all by my self I stand alone.

I've seen your world with theese very eyes
Dont come any closer,
dont even try
I've felt all the pain
heard all the lies
but in my world there's no compromise.

Like every tree,
stands on its own
reaching for the sky I stand alone
I share my world with no one else
all by my self I stand alone.


All by my self I stand alone
all by my self I stand alone

This is my favorite song of all time!

I've got to be honest
I think you know
We're covered in lies and that's OK
There's somewhere beyond this I know
But I hope I can find the words to say
Never again no
No never again

'Cause you're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
That you would know
You're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
I'd let you go

But I've been unable
To put you down
I'm still learning things I ought to know by now
It's under the table so
I need something more to show somehow
Never again no
No never again

'Cause you're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
That you would know
You're a god
And I am not
And I just thought
I'd let you go

I've got to be honest
I think you know
We're covered in lies and that's OK
There's somewhere beyond this I know
But I hope I can find the words to say
Never again no
No never again

And I am not

You're a god

Hush now, my baby
Be still love, don't cry
Sleep like you're rocked by the stream
Sleep and remember
My lullaby
And I'll be with you when you dream

Drift on a river
That flows through my arms
Drift as I'm singing to you
I see you smiling
So peaceful and calm
And holding you, I'm smiling, too
Here in my arms
Safe from all harm
Holding you, I'm smiling, too

Hush now, my heart
Be still, love, don't cry
Sleep like you're rocked by the stream
Sleep and remember this river lullaby
And I'll be with you when you dream
I'll be with you when you dream...

If you've got love in your sights...
Watch out...Love bites.

When you make love,
Do you look in the mirror?
Who do you think of?
Does he look like me?
Do you tell lies,
And say that it's forever?
Do you think twice,
Or just touch and see?

Ooh, babe. Oh, yeah.

When you're alone,
Do you let go?
Are you wild and willing?
Or is it just for show?

Ooh, come on.

I don't wanna touch you too much baby,
'Cause making love to you might drive me crazy,
I know y'think that love is the way you make it,
So I don't wanna be there when you decide to break it.

Love bites! Love bleeds!
It's bringing me to my knees!
Love bleeds! Love dies!
It's no surprise,
Love begs! Love pleads!
It's what I need.

When I'm with you,
Are you somewhere else?
Am I getting through,
Or do you please yourself?
When you wake up,
Will you walk out?
It can't be love,
If you throw it about.

Ooh, baby!

I don't wanna touch you too much baby,
'Cause making love to you might drive me crazy,

Love bites! Love bleeds!
It's bringing me to my knees!
Love bleeds! Love dies!
It's no surprise,
Love begs! Love pleads!
It's what I need.

If you've got love in your sights,
Watch out...Love bites.

Windin' your way down on Baker Street
Light in your head and dead on your feet
Well another crazy day
You'll drink the night away
And forget about everything
This city desert makes you feel so cold.
It's got so many people but it's got no soul
And it's taking you so long
To find out you were wrong
When you thought it had everything

You used to think that it was so easy
You used to say that it was so easy
But you're tryin'
You're tryin' now
Another year and then you'll be happy
Just one more year and then you'll be happy
But you're cryin'
You're cryin' now

Way down the street there's a lad in his place
He opens the door he's got that look on his face
And he asks you where you've been
You tell him who you've seen
And you talk about anything

He's got this dream about buyin' some land
He's gonna give up the booze and the one night stands
And then he'll settle down there's a quiet little town
And forget about everything

But you know he'll always keep movin'
You know he's never gonna stop movin
Cus he's rollin'
He's the rollin' stone

And when you wake up it's a new mornin'
The sun is shinin' it's a new morning
You're goin'
You're goin' home.

I've this creeping, suspicion that things here are not as they seem.
Reassure me, oh why do i feel as if i'm in too deep.
Now i've been praying, for some way to show them i'm not what they see.
Yes i have done wrong, but what i did i thought needed be done, i swear.

Oh, unholy day, if i leave now i might get away.
Oh but this weighs on me, as heavy as stone and as blue as i go.

I was just wondering if you'd come along.
Hold up my head when my head won't hold on.
I'll do the same if the same's what you want,
If not i'll go, i will go a long...

..long way, ah, from that fool's mistake.
And now forever pay, no run, i will run and i'll be ok.

I was just wondering if you'd come along.
Hold up my head when my head won't hold on.
I'll do the same if the same's what you want,
But if not i'll go, i will go a long...

...long way, "to bury the" past for i don't want to pay.
Oh how i wish, this, to turn back the clock and do over again.

Now i'm just wondering if you'd come a-long.
Hold up my head when my head won't hold on.
I'll do the same if the same's what you want,
But if not i'll go, i'll go alone.

I need so, to stay in your arms, see you smile, hold you close.
And now it weighs on me, as heavy as stone and of bone chilling cold.

I was just wondering if you'd come a--long.
Tell me you will.

When the door shuts, don’t worry about me
It’s not attention that I want from you
I need you to trust who I’m gonna be
And in everything I’m going to do
Cause I’m not afraid of what I don’t know
For understanding is all that I earn
But what is for sure is I’m going to go
I’m going to live and I’m going to learn

And I know there will be mistakes that I will make
But I know none are worse than chances I don’t take, take

Right before your eyes, I am changing
Changing
You laugh on the inside, I am changing
Changing

When the door shuts, it shuts finally
A new person that I have become
I’ll follow my heart to my destiny
Living in fear and the sorrow is done

There will be no more feeling that I’m all alone
I will surround myself with things that help me grow

Right before your eyes I am changing
Changing
You laugh on the inside, I am changing
Changing

Right before your eyes I am changing

You always had an eye for things that glittered

I just never could quite tell you no

Just like when you were leavin' Amarillo
Takin’ that new job in Tennessee
And I quit mine so we could be together
I can't forget the way you looked at me

Just to see you smile
I'd do anything
That you wanted me to
And all is said and done
I'd never count the cost
It's worth all that's lost
Just to see you smile

When you said time was all you really needed
I walked away and let you have your space
Cuz leavin' didn't hurt me near as badly
As the tears I saw rollin' down your face

And yesterday I knew just what you wanted
When you came walkin' up to me with him
So I told you that I was happy for you
And given the chance I’d lie again

Just to see you smile
I'd do anything
That you wanted me to

See the pyramids along the Nile
Watch the sun rise
From the tropic isle
Just remember darling
All the while
You belong to me
See the market place
In old Algiers
Send me photographs and souvenirs
Just remember
When a dream appears
You belong to me

And I'll be so alone without you
Maybe you'll be lonesome too

Fly the ocean
In a silver plane
See the jungle
When it's wet with rain
Just remember till
You're home again
You belong to me

Oh I'll be so alone without you
Maybe you'll be lonesome too

Fly the ocean
In a silver plane
See the jungle
When it's wet with rain
Just remember till
You're home again
You belong to me

I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Maybe I have been here before
I know this room, I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

There was a time you'd let me know
What's real and going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
And remember when I moved in you
The holy dark was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Maybe there's a God above
And all I ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
And it's not a cry you can hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I can't see you
But I can feel
Like a scar that
Just won't heal
Blue-eyed gypsy
You're still with me

Everywhere I go
Lonely
Won't leave me alone
You're everywhere I go
Lonely
Won't leave me alone

Another highway
One more town
I tried to lose you
But you tracked me down
Like the moonlight
On a dark night

You're down every winding road
Lonely
Won't leave me alone
Down every winding road
Lonely
Won't leave me alone


I know you told me
Our love's dead and gone
But here in my heart
It lives on
And on

You're every sad song
All night long
On my radio

Lonely
Won't leave me alone
Lonely
Won't leave me alone
Lonely
Won't leave me alone
I'm so lonely
Won't leave me alone
I'm so lonely

I walk alone where the streets are paved with lovers
They're hand in hand and they're deep in one another
And why can't it be you and me
Together we'd be so happy

Look at these lines on the map of my face... I'm tired
Of all the nights I'm awake with my desire
I want to lay down with you again
I want to believe in a dream

I walk alone
I ache to have you, to hold you close
And let you know I want you always in my arms
I walk alone
I need to see you, to feel you here
And let it heal the lonely fears inside our hearts

Too many hurried places to go
When all I want is to be with you
Too many worried moments to fill
When all I want is to hold you still

Now the sun will fade away
To draw the curtain on an empty day
In my heart it rains, to walk alone again

This empty room it fills my mind
Freedom it leaves me so confined
Every single bone has cracked
What in this life, you can't turn back

I don't want to live
I don't want to live here alone, alone

As these words part with my tounge
I question why they even sung
I promise but I lie
I don't even know myself inside

I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be here alone, alone

Today and tommorow have become one
Every single thing has become undone
Human nature is a beast
What ive done the most, to show I have the least

Please don't leave me here
Please don't leave me here
Don't you leave me alone, alone

Might as well throw one to the theme, though...

Do me wrong, do me right, do me right baby.
Tell me lies but hold, hold me tight.
Save your goodbyes till the morning light,
But don't let me be lonely tonight.

Say goodbye, woman say hello, say hello.
It's sure enough good to see you, but it's time to go,
And don't say yes, but please don't say no.
I don't want to be lonely tonight.

Go away then, damn you, go on and do as you please, do as you
please,
But you ain't going to see me getting down on my knees,
'Cause I'm undecided and your heart's been divided.

You've been turning my world upside down.

Do me wrong, do me right, do me right baby.
Go on and tell me lies but hold, hold me tight.
And save your goodbyes till the morning light,
But don't let me be lonely tonight.

Save your goodbyes till the morning light,
But don't let me be lonely tonight.
'Cause I don't want to be lonely tonight.

You said you was hurting, almost lost your mind
And the man you love, he hurts you all the time
When things go wrong, go wrong with you, it hurts me, too

You love him more when you should love him less
I pick up behind him and take his mess
When things go wrong, go wrong with you, it hurts me, too

He love another woman and I love you
But you love him and stick to him like glue
When things go wrong, go wrong with you, it hurts me, too

Now you better leave him; he better put you down
Oh, I won't stand to see you pushed around
When things go wrong, go wrong with you, it hurts me, too

In the white room, with black curtains near the station.
Blackroof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings.

Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes.
Dawnlight smiles on you leaving, my contentment.

I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines;
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves.

You said no strings could secure you at the station.
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows.

I walked into such a sad time at the station.
As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning.

I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back;
Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves.

At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd.
Consolation for the old wound now forgotten.

Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes.
She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.

I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd;
Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves.

<Rem wanders in with something on his mind and sits quietly down on the stool before the microphone>

There are places I'll remember,
all my life...
Though some have changed.
Some forever not for better.
Some have gone and some remain...

All these places had their moments.
With lovers and friends I still can recall.
Some are dead and some are living.
In my life I've loved them all...

But of all these friends and lovers,
There is no one compares with you.
And these mem'ries lose their meaning,
When I think of love as something new.

Though I know I'll never lose affection,
For people and things that went before,
I know I'll often stop and think about them...
In my life I'll love you more

Though I know I'll never lose affection,
For people and things that went before...
I know I'll often stop and think about them.

In my life ... I'll love you more.

In my life...

I'll love you more.

In the lonely night in the blinking stardust of a pale blue light
You're coming through to me in black and white when we were made of dreams
You're blowin' down a shaky street you're hearing my heart beat
In the record breaking heat where we were born in time.

Not one more night not one more kiss
Not this time babe no more of this
Takes too much skill takes too much of will
It's too reavealing.

You came you saw just like the law
You married young just like you ma
You tried and tried you made me slide
You left me reeling with this feeling

On the rising curve where the ways of nature will test every nerve
You don't get anything you don't deserve where we were born in time.

You pressed me once you pressed me twice
You hung the blade you'll pay the price
Oh babe that fire is still smoking.

You were snow you were rain
You were striped you were plain
Oh babe truer words have not been spoken
Or broken.

If there's a mystery in the foggy world of destiny
You can have what's left of me where we were born in time.

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a new born baby it just happens ev'ry day

I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facin' up when your whole world is black

No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you

If I look hard enough into the settin' sun
My love will laugh with me before the mornin' comes

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

Hmm, hmm, hmm,...

Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black

So true funny how it seems
always in time, but never in line for dreams
Head over heels when toe to toe
This is the sound of my soul,
this is the sound
I bought a ticket to the world,
but now I've come back again
Why do I find it hard to write the next line
Oh I want the truth to be said

Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true
Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true

With a thrill in my head and a pill on my tongue
dissolve the nerves that have just begun
Listening to Marvin (all night long)
This is the sound of my soul,
this is the sound

Always slipping from my hands,
sand's a time of its own
Take your seaside arms and write the next line
Oh I want the truth to be known

Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true
Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true

I bought a ticket to the world,

Where the caravan camels roam
Where they cut off your ear
If they don't like your face
It's barbaric, but hey, it's home

When the wind's from the east
And the sun's from the west
And the sand in the glass is right
Come on down
Stop on by
Hop a carpet and fly
To another Arabian night

Arabian nights
Like Arabian days
More often than not
Are hotter than hot
In a lot of good ways

Arabian nights

Love that song from Alladin Psyc...but I"m in darker mood now...

I've walked through this world sometimes without a friend
My life has been up and down, been close to an end
But i've been through the mill
And i've paid my dues
Walked so many miles in different peoples shoes

But i've been through the fire
And i've walked in the rain
I've felt the joy and endured the pain

Once i was a schemer
But i always was a dreamer
But it took me who i was and where i've been
To make me who i am

I've met a lot of lost souls in the bowels of hell
Traveled some crooked roads, got some stories yet to tell
I've shot up with the junkie, in piss stench halls
Broken bread with the devil, fallen on my knees to god
Some days i was blessed, some nights i was damned
But i always tried to lend a helping hand

Once i was a deceiver
But always a dreamer
But it took me who i was and where i've been
To make me who i am

Oh, i've seen the little children, all strung out on dope
No one to care about them, living without hope
But i've been lucky that i always had a song
I'll sing it with compassion, to try to right the wrong.

Once my life was wretched
But why should i regret it
Cuz, it took me who i was, and where i've been
To make me who i am

Once i was a deceiver
But always a dreamer
But it took me who i was and where i've been
To make me who i am

I need no one to say "i forgive you"
Or to Wipe away the scars
Cause i know it took who I was
And where I came from
To make me who i am

Cause i know it took who you were
And where you came from
To make you what you are

Through the pages of the past

I could laugh and play
And live in any other way
Then the devil took my soul

The fortune and the fame
I knew I was not the same
And I know I'd never return

Looking at the sky
I knew I would never die
And forever shining through

Wish the sky would say
That blue would turn to grey
And I know I'd be there

Like was like a fantasy
Taken by reality
Does anyone remember me
You once knew me

Flashes of the day
I knew I was here to stay
But no one stays the same

Turn the pages back in time
Through the chapters in my mind
Life's too short to leave behind
It's too late now

Like was like a fantasy
Taken by reality
Does anyone remember me
You once knew me

Flashes of the day
I knew I was here to stay
But no one
Knows my name

Let go of the moment that life makes you hold.
To measure the meaning can make you delay;
It's time you stop thinkin' and wasting the day.

Who thinks of a world that is just make-believe
Will never know passion, will never know pain.
Who sits by the window will one day see rain.

I've been trapped in the madness,
From the shadows of sadness
I laugh it away.
I've been blind to the passion
While the whole world is flashing
I stash it away.
While i'm singing of freedom,
I'm trying to sell
What i never had.
Hoping i'll be released from my own kind of hell
Cause i lost the key to my past.

The show must go on.
It seems like there's something i'm leaving behind.
The show must go on.
Cause the dreams that i'm having,
I'm having all the time.
The show must go on.

There will be no confessions,
Cause i'd only be guessing just where to begin.
There's only one thing i'm knowing
This feeling ain't blowing
Away with the wind.
And i'm tired of turning my back on myself
Throwing truth away.
Let the fire burn down the front door to myself
And give me a season of play.

The show must go on,
I just keep pretending to live for the game.
The show must go on.
I just keep on bending the rules to fit the pain.
It's time for collecting
What i've been neglecting.
It's gonna be a little strange.
Cause one day i'll be gone,
And i'll be back in town
Nothing's gonna, nothing's gonna
Be the same.

The show must go on,
And i just keep pretending to live for your game,
The show must go on,
I just keep on bending the rules to fit the pain.
Put on the face,
Win every race,
I'm just so strong can't you see,
And i keep up the pace,
I won't leave a trace.

Still going on, still going on.

I can walk down the street, there's no one there
Though the pavements are one huge crowd.
I can drive down the road; my eyes don't see,
Though my mind wants to cry out loud.

Now somewhere in the black mountain hills of Dakota,
There lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon(na)
And one day his woman ran off with another guy
Hit young Rocky in the eye
Rocky didn't like that he said I'm gonna get that boy
so one day he walked into town
Booked himself a room in the local saloon

Rock Raccoon checked into his room
Only to find Gideon's bible
Rocky had come equipped with the gun
to shoot off the legs of his rival

His rival it seems had broken his dreams
By stealing the girls of his fancy
Her name was Magill, and she called herself Lil
But everyone knew her as Nancy

Now she and her man who called himself Dan
Were in the next room at the hoe-down
Rocky burst in and grinning a grin
He said Danny boy this is a show down

Daniel was hot he drew first and shot
And Rocky collapsed in the corner
Da, da, da, da, da

Now the doctor came in stinking of gin
And proceeded to lie on the table
He said Rocky you met your match
And Rocky said, Doc it's only a scratch
And I'll be better
I'll be better doc as soon as I am able

And now Rocky Raccoon he fell back in his room
only to find Gideon's bible
Gideon checked out and he left it no doubt
To help with good Rocky's revival
Ah, oh yeah, yeah
Da, da, da, da

People say I'm crazy...
doing what I'm doing.

Well they give me all kinds of warnings...
to save me from ruin.

When I say that I'm o.k.
well they look at me kind of strange
"Surely you're not happy now,
you no longer play the game"

People say I'm lazy...
dreaming my life away
Well they give me all kinds of advice...
designed to enlighten me.

When I tell them that I'm doing fine
watching shadows on the wall
"Don't you miss the big time boy?
You're no longer on the ball."

I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round...

I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go

Ah, people asking questions,
lost in confusion
Well I tell them there's no problem,
only solutions

Well they shake their heads
and they look at me
as if I've lost my mind.

I tell them there's no hurry
I'm just sitting here doing time...

I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round

I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go
I just had to let it go
I just had to let it go

Ikay...lets see if any one can name A) the title, and B) the artist of this one with out useing a search engin or the likes.....most people can't......

I'm gonna take you
To a place far from here
No one will see us
Watch the pain as it disappears
No time for anger
No time for despair
Won't you come with me
There's a room for us there
This innocent beauty
My words can't describe
This rebirth to purity
Brings a sullen tear right to your eyes
No time for anger
No time for despair
Please let me take you
'cause I'm already there

I'm so alone
My head's my home
I'll return to serenity

Rhyme without reason is why children cry
They see through the system
That's breeding them just so they die
So please let me take you
And I'll show you the truth
Inside my reality
We shared in youth

[CHORUS :]
I'm so alone
My head's my home
And I feel
So alone
You know
At last
I'll return to serenity

Now that I've taken you
To a place far from here
I really must go back
Close your eyes and we'll disappear
Won't you come with me
Salvation we'll share
Inside of my head now
There's a room for us there

In their clean, white coats
And they're coming to take me away, Ha-haaa!



You thought it was a joke
And so you laughed
You laughed when I had said
That losing you would make me flip my lid
Right. . .



You know you laughed, I heard you laugh
You laughed, you laughed and laughed
And then you left
But now you know I'm utterly mad!
And. . .

With trees and flowers and chirping birds
And basket weavers who sit and smile
And twiddle their thumbs and toes
And they're coming to take me away, Ha-haaa!



I cooked your food
I cleaned your house
And this is how you pay me back
For all my kind, unselfish loving deeds?!!
Hah. . .



Well you just wait
They'll find you yet
And when they do they'll
Put you in the ASPCA, you mangy mutt!

April 26th, 1992
There was a riot on the streets
Tell me where were you?
You were sittin' home watchin' your TV
While I was participating in some anarchy
First spot we hit it was my liquor store
I finally got all that alcohol I can't afford
With red lights flashin', time to retire
And then we turned that liquor store into a structure fire

Next stop we hit, it was the music shop,
It only took one brick to make that window drop
Finally we got our own P.A.
Where do you think I got this guitar that you're hearing today?

(Homicide, never doin' no time)
When we returned to the pad to unload everything
It dawned on me that I need new home furnishings
So once again we filled the van until it was full
Since that day my livin' room's been much more comfortable

Cause everybody in the hood has had it up to here
It's getting harder and harder and harder each and every year
Some kids went in a store with their mother
I saw her when she came out she was gettin' some Pampers
They said it was for the black man
They said it was for the mexican
And not for the white man

But if you look at the streets, it wasn't about Rodney King
It's this fucked-up situation and these fucked-up police
It's about comin' up and stayin' on top
And screamin' 187 on a mother fuckin' cop
It's not in the paper, it's on the wall
National guard
Smoke from all around


[Units be advised of an attempt 211 to arrest now at 938 Temple, 9-3-8 Temple, many subjects with bats trying to get inside the CB's house...they're trying to kill him]

It's autobiographical you know.

When those riots broke out I was living in Florida and one of my friends asked if I wanted to go - to the riots in California. He actually went, but it was mostly over by the time he got there.

<shrugs> He wanted to loot.

But I figured all the best stuff was gone already.

On my way out, I grabbed a Disturbed CD.

There is more to the dream, but that's all that is relevant. I blame it on the song.

They said you were leavin'
Someone swept you heart away
From the look upon your face I see it's true
So tell me all about it, tell me 'bout the plans you're makin'
Then tell me one thing more before I go

Tell me how am I supposed to live without you
Now that I've been lovin' you so long
How am I supposed to live without you
How am I supposed to carry on
When all that I've been livin' for is gone

I didn't come here for cryin'
Didn't come here to breakdown
It's just a dream of mine is coming to an end
An how can I blame you
When I built my world around
The hope that someday we'd be so much more than friends
And I don't wanna know the price I'm gonna pay for dreaming
When even now it's more than I can take

Tell me how am I supposed to live without you
Now that I've been lovin' you so long
How am I supposed to live without you
How am I supposed to carry on
When all that I've been livin' for is gone

And I don't wanna face the price I'm gonna pay for dreaming
Now that your dream has come true

Tell me how am I supposed to live without you

Standing here in the presence
Of something more that merely real
There are no words to describe you
Or explain the way I feel

As you speak I find healing for my soul
And your touch alone can make me whole.

And my heart cries Holy
And my spirit feels a change
As my heart cries Holy
I will never be the same

Your mercies toward me last forever
Your faithfulness is true
And as you touch the coal to my lips
My mind is made brand new

I could never repay all that you've done
So use my life to the glory of your Son

And my heart cries Holy
And my spirit feels a change
As my heart cries Holy
I will never be the same

Everything inside of me
Everything untrue
Oh, Lord I surrender
All of it to You
Yeah, Yeah

And my heart cries Holy
And my spirit feels a change
As my heart cries Holy
I will never be the same

And I don't see you anymore
I wouldn't leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are

Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair
You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are.

I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew
What will it take 'till you believe in me
The way that I believe in you.

I said I love you, and that's forever
And this I promise from the heart
I could not love you any better
I love you just the way you are.

all of my senses are overthrown...
by the might of your skin.
And the lamplight on your cheekbone
drawing me further in...

No sentence i can speak for the wonder so unique
breaking like a wave upon the shore...

mercy me, im falling free
since you opened up the door

See how the sky is made of sapphire?
The colors flowing through our hands
The moon is fire in your hair.
A million miles beyond what science understands.

Smell that mountain heaven, I dont remember ever
feeling like this before...

mercy me, im falling free,
since you opened up the door...

And if every windowpane should shatter,
if every wall should fall apart
well, it might hurt a bit, but would it matter
with this diamond in my heart?

There's no need to nail it to the ground
There's no need to smother it with sense
Just listen to the rhythm of you heart that pounds
and trust it all to chance.

'Cause we're standin face to face with the angel of grace
and dont it just taste so pure?

Mercy me, im falling free
Mercy me, im falling free
Mercy me, im falling free
Since you opened up the door...

Maybe I should hold myself up on this microphone and...

If i had taken the time
To write down a few lines
Everytime that you crossed this heart of mine
I'd put them all in a book
How much time would that have took
The words and years have a way of slipping back

Oh no! Too bad, there goes the chance that i had
I could have written a play so sweet and so funny
Given old Mr. Shakespere a run for his money
Written the words to the prettiest tune
That would never leave a dry eye in the room
My only excuse for not doing enough
I was too busy being in love
Yes I was too busy being in love

Brand new phrases appear everytime you are near
All this words you inspire after all these years
But i never reached for a pen
Break the mood that im in
Before I knew that the words were gone again

Oh no! Too bad, there goes the chance that i had
I could have written a play so sweet and so funny
Given old Mr. Shakespere a run for his money
Written the words to the prettiest tune
That would never leave a dry eye in the room
My only excuse for not doing enough
I was too busy being in love
Yes I was too busy being in love

I could have written the poem to make your lovers crazy
I could have written the movie for Herburn and Tracey
Most beautiful song and it starts with your name
Written my way into fortune and fame
But i have no regrets for not doing enough
I was too busy being in love
Yes i was too busy being in love

Post by hurricanrana on Jul 16, 2004, 10:16am

I've alwasy loved this song. Don't hurt me if you don't like it.

There's two things I know for sure,
She was sent here from heaven,
and she's daddy's little girl.
As I drop to my knees by her bed at night,
she talks to Jesus and I close my eyes.
And I thank God for all the joy in my life,
But most of all, for...

Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer.
Stickin' little white flowers all up in her hair.
"Walk beside the pony daddy,
its my first ride."
"I know the cake looks funny,
daddy, but I sure tried."
Oh, with all that I've done wrong,
I must have done something right
To deserve a hug every morning
And butterfly kisses at night.

Sweet sixteen today,
She's looking like her momma
a little more every day.
One part woman, the other part girl.
To perfume and makeup,
from ribbons and curls.
Trying her wings out in a great
big world. But I remember...

Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer.
Stickin' little white flowers all up in her hair.
"You know how much I love you daddy,
But if you don't mind,
I'm only going to kiss you on
the cheek this time."
With all that I've done wrong,
I must have done something right.
To deserve her love every morning,
And butterfly kisses at night.

All the precious time
Like the wind, the years go by
Precious butterfly
Spread your wings and fly

She'll change her name today.
She'll make a promise,
and I'll give her away.
Standing in the bride room
just staring at her,
she asked me what I'm thinking,
and I said "I'm not sure,
I just feel like l'm losing my baby girl."
Then she leaned over...and gave me...
Butterfly kisses, with her mama there
Stickin' little white flowers all up in her hair
"Walk me down the aisle daddy, its just about time"
"Does my wedding gown look pretty daddy?"
"Daddy don't cry "
With all that I've done wrong, I must have
done something right
To deserve her love every morning
And butterfly kisses
I couldn't ask God for more, man, this is
what love is
I know I've gotta let her go, but I'll always remember
Every hug in the morning and butterfly kisses...
~Butterfly Kisses by Michael Bolton


That song always makes me cry.

You'll find this freaky, atleast I did. My cousin died when she was 20 and she loved Michael Bolton. Well he had long hair before and when she died. She would always say, I wonder what he would like with his hair cut short? Well about two months after she died he cut his hair.

Huh. That is kinda weird.

Well, I think I'm going to break the mood. . .then again. . .nah.

I love Flogging Molly. I can't help it.

Stuck on limbo bridge
Where below me ol' Nick grins
Then laughs through the chaos of it all
Gets up off his chair
Spins a jig to my despair
He can't wait to count the times where I went wrong

Underneath the bush, lay a beggar out of luck
On his lips, was a taste he forgets
His hopes were filled with sand
That he watched fall through his hand
Every grain, was a lifetime of regret

So go and bow your head and weep
For your world won't change while you sleep
Yeah, go and bow your head and weep
For the summer that was lost, now is gone

Fertile Mrs. Moore had thirteen kids
But still looked good
Till her ol' man jumped leave on a ship
She never read a book
But by Christ she understood
That the meanin' of life
Starts in bed

So go and bow your head and weep
For your world won't change while you sleep
Yeah, go and bow your head and weep
For the summer that was lost, now is gone

Killer Kilbain kicked me senseless everyday
I hope that bastard is beneath a head of stone
Where I'd dance upon his grave
For all the madness I now crave
While the scars that remain are still a curse

So I'm stuck on a limbo bridge
Where below me ol' Nick grins
Then laughs through the chaos of it all
Gets up off his chair
Spins a jig to my despair
He can't wait to count the times where I went wrong
Yeah, he can't wait to count the times where I went wrong

It's cryin', bleedin', lying on za floor
Zo you lay down on it and you do it zome more
You've got to share it, so you dare it
Zen you bare it and you tear it

You vant it all but you can't have eet
It's in your face but you can't grab it!

NO!

It's alive, afraid, a lie, a sin
It's magic, it's tragic, it's a loss, it's a vin

Anyway...more songs!! ;D

Sitting here wasted and wounded, at this old piano,
Trying hard to capture the moment, this morning I don't know,
'Cause a bottle of vodka's still lodged in my hand,
And some blonde gave me nightmares, think that she's still in my bed,
As I dream about movies they won't make of me when I'm dead.

With an ironclad fist, wake up and French kiss the morning,
While some marching band keeps its own beat in my head, while we're talking,
About all of those things that I long to believe,
About love, the truth, what you mean to me,
And the truth is, baby you're all that I need.

I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses,
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails,
I want to be just as close as, the Holy Ghost is,
And lay you down on a bed of roses.

Well, I'm so far away,
Each step that I takes on my way home,
A king's ransom in dimes I'd give each night,
To see through this payphone.
Still I run out of time or it's hard to get through,
'Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you,
I'll just close my eyes and whisper, baby blind love is true

I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses,
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails,
I want to be just as close as, the Holy Ghost is,
And lay you down on a bed of roses.

This hotel bar hangover whiskey's gone dry,
The barkeeper's wig's crooked,
And she's giving me the eye,
Well, I might have said yeah,
But I laughed so hard I think I died.

Now as you close your eyes, know I'll be thinking about you,
While my mistress, she calls me to stand in her spotlight again,
Tonight, I won't be alone, but you know that don't mean I'm not lonely,
I've got nothing to prove,
For it's you that I'd die to defend.

I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses,
For tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails,
I want to be just as close as, the Holy Ghost is,
And lay you down on a bed of roses.

Good night my angel time to close your eyes
And save these questions for another day
I think I know what you've been asking me
I think you know what I've been trying to say

I promised I would never leave you
And you should always know
Where ever you may go
No matter where you are
I never will be far away

Good night my angel now it's time to sleep
And still so many things I want to say
Remember all the songs you sang for me
When we went sailing on an emerald bay

And like a boat out on the ocean
I'm rocking you to sleep
The water's dark and deep
Inside this ancient heart
You'll always be a part of me

Do do do do...

Goodnight my angel now it's time to dream
And dream how wonderful your life will be
Someday your child will cry and if you sing this lullaby
Then in your heart there will always be a part of me

Someday we'll all be gone
But lullabies go on and on
They never die that's how you and I will be

(Billy Joel - Lullaby)

While you're looking up at me
You're like my favorite damn disease.

And I love the places that we go
And I love the people that you know
And I love the way you can't say "no"
Too many long lines in a row
I love the powder on your nose

It's late in the evening,
She's wonderin' what clothes to wear,
She puts on her make-up,
And brushes her long blonde hair.

And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?"
And I say yes, you look wonderful tonight.

We go to a party,
And everyone turns to see,
This beautiful lady,
Walkin' around with me.

And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"
And I say yes, I feel wonderful tonight.

I feel wonderful, because I see the love light in your eyes,
And the wonder of it all is that you just don't realize,
How much I love you.

It's time to go home now,
And I've got an achin' head,
So I give her the car keys,
And she helps me to bed.

And then I tell her,
As I turn out the light,
I say my darlin', you were wonderful tonight,
Oh, my darlin, you were wonderful tonight.

I want love, but it's impossible
A man like me, so irresponsible
A man like me is dead in places
Other men feel liberated

I can't love, shot full of holes
Don't feel nothing, I just feel cold
Don't feel nothing, just old scars
Toughening up around my heart

But I want love, just a different kind
I want love, won't bring me down
Won't brick me up, won't fence me in
I want a love, that don't mean a thing
That's the love I want, I want love

I want love on my own terms
After everything I've ever learned
Me, I carry too much baggage
Oh man I've seen so much traffic

But I want love, just a different kind
I want love, won't bring me down
Won't brick me up, won't fence me in
I want a love, that don't mean a thing
That's the love I want, I want love

So bring it on, I've been bruised
Don't give me love that's clean and smooth
I'm ready for the rougher stuff
No sweet romance, I've had enough

A man like me is dead in places
Other men feel liberated

But I want love, just a different kind
I want love, won't bring me down
Won't break me up, won't fence me in
I want a love, that don't mean a thing
That's the love I want, I want love

But I want love, just a different kind
I want love, won't bring me down

"Show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream" she said
"The one that makes me laugh" she said
And threw her arms around my neck
"Show me how you do it and I promise you
I promise that I'll run away with you
I'll run away with you"

Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make her glow
"Why are you so far away?" she said
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you?
That I'm in love with you?"

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You

Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You're just like a dream...

Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone
Alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Just like heaven

Home isn't pretty
Ain't no home for me

Home in the darkness
Home on the highway
Home isn't my way
Home will never be

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I can't see no reason to put up a fight
I'm living for giving the devil his due

And I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you

Time is the essence
Time is the season
Time ain't no reason
Got no time to slow

Time everlasting
Time to play besides
Time ain't on my side
Time I'll never know

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I'm not the one to tell you what's wrong or what's right
I've seen suns that were freezing and lives that were through

Well I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you

Burn out the day
Burn out the night

THis one is actaully dedicated to all of us that can't be with the ones we think of....

Oceans apart day after day
And I slowly go insane
I hear your voice on the line
But it doesn't stop the pain

If I see you next to never
How can we say forever

Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

I took for granted, all the times
That I though would last somehow
I hear the laughter, I taste the tears
But I can't get near you now
Oh, can't you see it baby
You've got me goin' crazy

Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

I wonder how we can survive
This romance
But in the end if I'm with you
I'll take the chance

Oh, can't you see it baby
You've got me goin' crazy
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes

I will be right here waiting for you

Risin' up, back on the street
Took my time, took my chances
Went the distance
Now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive

So many times, it happened too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

* It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge
Of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And his fortune must always be
Eye of the tiger

Face to face, out in the heat
Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry
They stack the odds
Still we take to the street
Fot the kill with the skill to survive
(Repeat *)

Risin' up straight to the top
Had the guts, got the glory
Went the distance
Now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man and his will to survive

I'm usually not big on songs in a religious context...but...eh...if the music's good...

I only want to say,
If there is a way,
Take this cup away from me,
For I don't want to taste its poison,
Feel it burn me,
I have changed I'm not as sure,
As when we started,
Then I was inspired,
Now I'm sad and tired,
Listen surely I've exceeded,
Expectations,
Tried for three years,
Seems like thirty,
Could you ask as much,
From any other man?

But if I die,
See the saga through,
And do the things you ask of me,
Let them hate me, hit me, hurt me,
Nail me to their tree,
I'd want to know,
I'd want to know my God.
I'd want to know,
I'd want to know my God.
I'd want to see,
I'd want to see my God.
I'd want to see,
I'd want to see my God.
Why I should die,
Would I be more noticed,
Than I ever was before?
Would the things I've said and done,
Matter any more?
I'd have to know,
I'd have to know my Lord.
I'd have to know,
I'd have to know my Lord.
I'd have to see,
I'd have to see my Lord.
I'd have to see,
I'd have to see my Lord.

If I die what will be my reward?
If I die what will be my reward?
I'd have to know,
I'd have to know my Lord.
I'd have to know,
I'd have to know my Lord.

Why, why should I die?
Oh, why should I die?
Can you show me now,
That I would not be killed in vain?
Show me just a little,
Of your omnipresent brain,
Show me there's a reason,
For your wanting me to die,
You're far too keen on where and how,
But not so hot on why.
Alright I'll die!
Just watch me die!
See how, see how I die!
Oh, just watch me die!

Then I was inspired,
Now I'm sad and tired,
After all I've tried for three years,
Seems like ninety,
Why then am I scared,
To finish what I started,
What you started,
I didn't start it,
God thy will is hard,
But you hold every card,
I will drink your cup of poison,
Nail me to your cross and break me,
Bleed me, beat me,
Kill me, take me now,
Before I change my mind.

Fumbling his confidence
And wond'ring why the world has passed him by
Hoping that he's meant for more than arguments
And failed attempts to fly, fly

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside

Dreaming about Providence
And whether mice or men have second tries
Maybe we've been livin with our eyes half open
Maybe we're bent and broken, broken

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside

We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than the wars of our fathers
And everything inside screams for second life

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live
We were meant to live

IP - Great movie and score - that JCSS. I love the one mile 'retreat' shot during Judas' first solo song - where it starts as a close up on his face and pans back until his whole body is just a red dressed speck on the top of a cliff. Great work on that film - it was really... inspired.

And J - I dig the selection.

I'm the innocent bystander
Somehow I got stuck
Between the rock and the hard place
And I'm down on my luck
And I'm down on my luck

Take another sip my love
and see what you will see,

A fleet of golden galleons,
on a crystal sea.

Are you sitting comfortably?
Let Merlin cast his spell.

Ride along the winds of time
and see where we have been,

The glorious age of Camelot,
when Guinevere was Queen.
It all unfolds before your eyes
As Merlin casts his spell.

The seven wonders
of the world
he'll lay before your feet,

In far-off lands,
on distant shores,
so many friends to meet.

Are you sitting comfortably?
Let Merlin cast his spell.

I know an entire casts version from when I was doing it - but the ones they were yelling in New York and R.I. were vastly different from when I went in M.O.

But how sick is this - I invented screamer lines for my next favorite movie too - Aladdin <grin>

Anyway, back to my more reckless mood - and ... no need to worry yourselves - I havent gone mad yet. You'll know when I do - I'll begin hiring.

Amish paradise!!!

by Al Yankovic

As I walk through the valley where I harvest my grain
I take a look at my wife and realize she's very plain
But that's just perfect for an Amish like me
You know, I shun fancy things like electricity
At 4:30 in the morning I'm milkin' cows
Jebediah feeds the chickens and Jacob plows... fool
And I've been milkin' and plowin' so long that
Even Ezekiel thinks that my mind is gone
I'm a man of the land, I'm into discipline
Got a Bible in my hand and a beard on my chin
But if I finish all of my chores and you finish thine
Then tonight we're gonna party like it's 1699

We been spending most our lives
Living in an Amish paradise
I've churned butter once or twice
Living in an Amish paradise
It's hard work and sacrifice
Living in an Amish paradise
We sell quilts at discount price
Living in an Amish paradise

A local boy kicked me in the butt last week
I just smiled at him and turned the other cheek
I really don't care, in fact I wish him well
'Cause I'll be laughing my head off when he's burning in hell
But I ain't never punched a tourist even if he deserved it
An Amish with a 'tude? You know that's unheard of
I never wear buttons but I got a cool hat
And my homies all I agree I look good in black... fool
If you come to visit, you'll be bored to tears
We haven't even paid the phone bill in 300 years
But we ain't really quaint, so please don't point and stare
We're just technologically impaired

There's no phone, no lights, no motorcar
Not a single luxury
Like Robinson Caruso
It's as primitave as can be

We been spending most our lives
Living in an Amish paradise
We're just plain and simple guys
Living in an Amish paradise
There's no time for sin and vice
Living in an Amish paradise
We don't fight, we all play nice
Living in an Amish paradise

Hitchin' up the buggy, churnin' lots of butter
Raised a barn on Monday, soon I'll raise another
Think you're really rightous? Think you're pure in heart?
Well, I know I'm a million times as humble as thou art
I'm the pious guy the little Amlettes wanna be like
On my knees day and night scorin' points for the afterlife
So don't be vain and don't be whiny
Or else, my brother, I might just have to get medieval on your heinie

We been spending most our lives
Living in an Amish paradise
We're all crazy Mennonites
Living in an Amish paradise
There's no cops or traffic lights
Living in an Amish paradise
But you'd probably think it bites
Living in an Amish paradise

Yuck

Um..actuly two songs in this one.....

For too long now, there were secrets in my mind
For too long now, there were things I should have said
In the darkness...I was stumbling for the door
To find a reason - to find the time, the place, the hour

Waiting for the winter sun, and the cold light of day
The misty ghosts of childhood fears
The pressure is building, and I can't stay away

I throw myself into the sea
Release the wave, let it wash over me
To face the fear I once believed
The tears of the dragon, for you and for me

Where I was, I had wings that couldn't fly
Where I was, I had tears I couldn't cry
My emotions frozen in an icy lake
I couldn't feel them until the ice began to break

I have no power over this, you know I'm afraid
The walls I built are crumbling
The water is moving, I'm slipping away...

I throw myself into the sea
Release the wave, let it wash over me
To face the fear I once believed
The tears of the dragon, for you and for me

Slowly I awake, slowly I rise
The walls I built are crumbling
The water is moving, I'm slipping away...

I throw (I throw)
Myself (myself)
Into the sea
Release the wave, let it wash over me
To face (to face)
The fear (the fear)
I once believed
The tears of the dragon, for you and for me

I throw (I throw)
Myself (myself)
Into the sea
Release the wave, let it wash over me
To face (to face)
The fear (the fear)
I once believed
The tears of the dragon, for you and for me
Tears of the dragon by Bruce Dickinson

And........

I'm gonna take you
To a place far from here
No one will see us
Watch the pain as it disappears
No time for anger
No time for despair
Won't you come with me
There's a room for us there
This innocent beauty
My words can't describe
This rebirth purity
Brings a sullen tear right to your eyes
No time for anger
No time for despair
Please let me take you
'cause I'm already there

I'm so alone
My head's my home
I'll return to serenity

Rhyme without reason is why children cry
They see through the system
That's breeding them just so they die
So please let me take you
And I'll show you the truth
Inside my reality
We shared in youth

[CHORUS :]
I'm so alone
My head's my home
And I feel
So alone
You know
At last
I'll return to serenity

Now that I've taken you
To a place far from here
I really must go back
Close your eyes and we'll disappear
Won't you come with me
Salvation we'll share
Inside of my head now
There's a room for us there

CHORUS

Return to Serenity by Testament

More JCSS... I'm a sucker for musicals...

My mind is clearer now,
At last, all too well,
I can see where we all,
Soon will be.

If you strip away,
The myth from the man,
You will see where we all soon will be.

Jesus!
You've started to believe,
The things they say of you,
You really do believe,
This talk of God is true!

And all the good you've done,
Will soon get swept away,
You've begun to matter more,
Than the things you say!

Listen, Jesus, I don't like what I see,
All I ask is that you listen to me.
And, remember, I've been your right-hand man,
All along.

You have set them all on fire,
They think they've found the new Messiah,
And they'll hurt you when they find,
They're wrong.

I remember when this whole thing began,
No talk of God,
Then we called you a man!
And believe me,
My admiration for you hasn't died.

But every word you say today,
Gets twisted 'round some other way,
And they'll hurt you if they think,
You've lied.

Nazareth, your famous son,
Should have have stayed a great unknown,
Like his father, carving wood,
He'd have made good!

Tables, chairs, and oaken chest,
Would've suited Jesus best,
He'd have caused nobody harm,
No one alarm!

Listen Jesus, do you care for your race?
Don't you see we must keep to our place?
We are occupied!
Have you forgotten how put down we are?

I am frightened by the crowds,
For we are getting far too loud,
And they'll crush us if we go too far,
If we go too far!!

Listen, Jesus, to the warning I give,
Please remember that I want us to live!
But it's sad to see our chances weakening with every hour!
All your followers are blind!
Too much Heaven on their minds!
It was beautiful,
But now it's sour.
Yes, it's all gone sour.

Dearest darlingest Momsie and Popsical...

ELPHABA
My dear Father...

GALINDA & ELPHABA
There's been some confusion
Of the rooming her at Shiz

ELPHABA
But of course I'll care for Nessa

GALINDA
But of course I'll rise above it

GALINDA & ELPHABA
For I know that's how you'd
Want me to respond - yes!
There's been some confusion
For you see my room-mate is -

GALINDA
Unusually and exceedingle peculiar
And altogether quite impossible to describe

ELPHABA

So sudden and new

ELPHABA
I Felt the moment
I layed eyes on you

GALINDA
My pulse is rushing

My head is reeling

GALINDA
My face is flushing

GALINDA & ELPHABA
What is this Feeling?
Ferbid as a flame
Does it have a name?
Yes

Loathing
Unadulturated Loathing

GALINDA
For your face

ELPHABA
Your voice

GALINDA
Your clothing

GALINDA & ELPHABA
Let's just say, I loathe it all
Ev'ry trait, however small
Makes my very flesh
Begin to crawl
With simple utter Loathing
There's a strange exhileration
In such total detestation
It's so pure - so strong
Though I do admit it came on fast
Still I do believe that it can last
And I will be loathing - loathing you
My whole life long

STUDENTS OF SHIZ
Dear Galinda, you are just too good
How do you stand? I don't think I could
She's a terror! She's a tartar!
We don't mean to show our bias
But Galinda you're a martyr

GALINDA
Well, these things are sent to try us!

STUDENTS OF SHIZ
Poor Galinda forced to reside
With someone so digusticified
We just want to tell you
We're all on your side!
We share your -

STUDENTS OF SHIZ

Unadulturated Loathing
For her face
Her voice
Her clothing

However small
Makes my very flesh

Let his blood leave no stain
While they beat him
Let him feel no pain
Let his bones never break
And however they try to detroy him

What good is this chanting?
I don't even know what I'm reading!
I don't even know what trick I ought to try
Fiyero where are you!?
Already dead or bleeding?
One more disaster I can add to my
Generous supply?

Unlimited
The damage is Unlimited
To everyone I have tried to
Help or tried to love
And, oh my Fiyero
You're the latest victim of
My greatest achievement
In a long career of distress
Ev'ry time I could I could
I tried making good
And all I made was a mess
This damn mess
Yes, you could call it limitless

No Good Deed goes unpunished
Not a charity goes unsresented
No Good Deed goes unpunished
That's my new creed
My road of good intentions
Lead where such roads always lead
No Good Deed
Goes Unpunished

Nessa -
Dr. Dillamond -
Fiyero...
Fiyero!!!

One question haunts and hurts
Too much - too much to mention
Was I really seeking good
Or just seeking attention?
Is that all good deeds are?
Looked at with an ice-cold eye?
If that's all good deeds are
Maybe that's the reason why...

No Good Deed goes unpunished
All helpful urges should be circumvented
No Good Deed goes unpunished
Sure, I meant well -
Well, look at what well-meant did -
Alright, Enough, so be it
So be it then:
Let all Oz be agreed
I am Wicked through and through
Since I cannot succeed
Fiyero, saving you I promise No Good Deed
Will I attempt to do again
Ever again
No Good Deed
Will I Do
Again!

And leave you lonely

But know that you're here in my heart
While I'm out of your sight...

And like every family, they had their secrets...

LOVER
Have another drink

Ive got one more night
Left here in town
So have another drink
Of green elixer
And we'll have ourselves
A little mixer
Have another little sweallow
Little lady, and follow it down

GLINDA
And of course, from the moment she was born she was - well...different.

Take it away...Take it away!

Now at last there's joy throughout the land

And Goodness knows
We know what goodness is
Goodness knows

I never asked for this
Or planned it in advance
I was merely blown here
By the winds of chance
Inever saw myself
As a Solomon or Socrates
I knew who I was
One of your dim a dozen
Mediocrities

Then suddenly I'm here
Rspected - worshiped even
Just because the foks in Oz
Needed someone to believe in
Does it surprise I got hooked?
And all too soon?
What can I say?
I got carried away
And not just by balloon...

Wonderful
They called me "Wonderful"
So I said "Wonderful - if you insist...
I will be wonderful"
And they said "Wonderful"
Believe me, it's hard to resist
Cuz it feels Wonderful
They think I'm Wonderful
Hey look who's Wonderful
This corn-fed hick
Who said: "It might be keen
To be build a town of green
And a Wonderful road of yellow-brick"

A man's calleda traitor - or liberator
A rich man's a thief - or philanthropist
Is one a crusader - or ruthless invader?
It's all in which label
Is able to persist
There are precious few at ease
With moral ambiguities
So we act as though they don't exist

They call me "Wondeful"
So I am Wonderful
In fact, it's so much who I am
It's part of my name
And with your help, you can be the same!

At long, long last receive your due -
Long overdue - Elphaba
The most celebrated
Are the rehabilitated
There'll be such a...whoop-de-doo
A celebration throughout Oz
That's all to do with you

Wonderful
They'll call you Wonderful

ELPHABA
It does sound Wonderful

WIZARD
Trust me - it's fun

WIZARD & ELPHABA
When you are Wonderful
It would be Wonderful?
Wonderful, Wonderful -

ELPHABA
Alright!
I'll accept your proposition -

WIZARD
Wonderful!

ELPHABA
- On one condition!

WIZARD
Yes?

ELPHABA
You let the monkeys go...

(Pause. The WIZARD sighs.)

If you missed it, don't worry, they'll say the line
Again and again and again
Oh, la la la, di de da
La la, di di da da dom

Now Norman's a billionaire scientist
Who never had time for his son
But then something went screwy and before you knew he
Was trying to
And he's ridin' around on that glider thing
And he's throwin' that weird pumpkin
Yes, he's wearing that dumb Power Rangers mask
But he's scarier without it on

Sling us a web, you're the Spider-Man
Sling us a web tonight
'Cause you're brave and you're strong and so limber now
But where'd you come up with those tights?

It's a pretty sad day at the funeral
Norman Osborn has bitten the dust
And I heard Harry's said he wants Spider-Man
Aw, but his buddy Pete he can trust
Oh, and M.J. is all hot for Peter now
Aw, but Peter, he just shuts her down
Mary Jane, don't you cry, you can give it a try
Again when the sequel comes 'round
Oh, la la la, di de da
La la, di di da da dom

Sling us a web, you're the Spider-Man
Sling us a web tonight
'Cause we all sure could use a hero now
And we think that you'd do all right

Okay here's 2 more.

A Complicated Song By Wierd Al Yankovic
(Parody of Complicated by Avril Lavigne)

Uh huh...extra cheese - Uh huh, uh huh...save a piece for me

Pizza party at your house
I came just to check it out
19 extra larges - what a shame
No one came
Just us, eatin' all alone
You said, "Take the pizza home"
"No sense lettin' all this go to waste"
So then I faced
Pizza all day
And every day
This cheese 'round the clock
Is gettin' me blocked
And I sure don't care
For irregularity

Tell me
Why'd you have to go and make me so constipated?
'Cause right now I'd do anything to just get my bowels evacuated
In the bathroom...I sit and I wait and I strain
And I sweat and I clench and I feel the pain
Oh, should I take laxatives or have my colon irrigated?
No no no

I was feelin' pretty down
Till my girlfriend came around
We're just so alike in every way
I gotta say
In fact, I just thought I might
Pop the question there that night
I was kissing her so tenderly
But woe is me
Who would have guessed
Her family crest
I'd suddenly spy
Tattooed on her thigh
And son-of-a-gun
It's just like the one on me

Tell me
How was I supposed to know we were both related?
Believe me, if I knew she was my cousin we never would have dated
What to do now? Should I go ahead and propose
And get hitched and have kids with eleven toes
And move to Alabama where that kind of thing is tolerated?
No no no

I had so much on my mind
I thought maybe I'd unwind
Try out that new roller coaster ride
And the guide
Said not to stand
But that's a demand
That I couldn't meet
I got on my feet
And stood up instead
And knocked off my head, you see

Tell me
Why'd I have to go and get myself decapitated?
This really is a major inconvenience, oh man, I really hate it
Such a drag now...Can't eat, I can't breathe, I can't snore
I can't belch or yodel anymore
Can't spit or blow my nose or even read Sports Illustrated
Oh no
Why'd I have to go and get myself all mutilated? (Yeah yeah)
I gotta tell ya, life without a head kinda makes me irritated
What a bummer...Can't blink, I can't cough, I can't sneeze
But my neck is enjoyin' a pleasant breeze now
Haven't been the same since my head and I were separated
No no no



Couch Potato By Wierd Al Yankovic
(Parody of Lose Yourself by Eminem)

Look... If you had one shot
to sit on your lazy butt
and watch all the tv you ever wanted
until your brain turned to mush,
Would you go for it? Or just let it slip? Yo!

Remote is ready, eyes wide, palms are sweaty
The Flintstone's on the TV already
Wilma and Betty
No virgin to channel surfin
And I'm HD ready
So I flip, garbage is all I'm getting
There's Simon Cowell
Who folks wanna disembowel
He opens his mouth, always says something foul
They're dying, Wow!
Wannabe's are crying now
He votes them out
Time to throw in the towel

Show's based on reality
Oh the humanity!
Oh! Ozzy's family!
Sho' loves profanity!
Whoa! The insanity!
Oh! Dogs that crap and pee
Home of depravity?
No! They live happily

Yo! Plus "Da Ali G Show"
And "Celebrity Mole"
Oh there's Anna Nicole
She's scaring me
Look ma, no cavities!
Oh! It's a station break
Better go out to the kitchen and microwave something

You're gonna lose your mind watchin tv they told me
They scold me, but I still tune in every show
My cable gets C-SPAN, TV Land and HBO
The Travel Channel, Discovery, and Lifetime

(You're gonna) lose your mind watchin' TV they told me
Cajoled me, "Turn off those music videos!"
Gonna watch C-SPAN TV Land and HBO
The History Channel and QVC and Lifetime

My butt is aching as I watch NASCAR racing
That show about undertaking
Larry King to "24" to "Law and Order"
The Weather Channel's boring like 60 Minutes
Ancient reporters next up on "E True Hollywood Story"
The rise and decline of twelve actors named Corey

Shows for next fall, they've already been naming
"CSI: Boise", and "Touched By An Uncle", both sound prettying lame, man
so does "Everybody Tolerates Raymond"
and "King of Queens" jumped the shark the first minute
I can't believe Richard Simmons ain't in it.

I move right on to "8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenaged Daughter"
Then I bet I watch "The Bachelorette"
Followed by "Welcome Back, Kotter"
And "The Muppet Show" where they go "Mahna Mahna"

You're gonna lose your mind watching TV they told me
They scold me but I still tune in every show
My cable gets C-SPAN, TV Land and HBO
The Disney Channel, and A&E and Lifetime

(You're gonna) lose your mind watching TV they told me
Cajoled me, but I still love Lisa Kudrow
I'm looking at C-SPAN, TV Land and HBO
The Playboy Channel and Court TV and Lifetime

Never missed "Melrose Place" or "Lost in Space"
I've seen each "Amazing Race" and "Without a Trace"
But I only watched "Will and Grace" one time one day
Wished I hadn't 'cause TiVo now thinks I'm gay

Oh and "Fear Factor" I watched maybe a half hour
After that felt like I needed a long shower
Network execs with naked ambition
Next week on FOX, watch lions eat christians

Like to tie up those programming planners
Make'em watch all of that junk 'til their heads explode just like "Scanners"
Leech covered grub eatin' fools on Survivor
Look there's James Lipton discussing the oeuvre of Mr. Rob Schneider

And there's Gilligan and SpongeBob plus there's MacGyver
And Jay Leno has got Madonna and hey there's Luke Perry
And a special all pig-latin episode of "Drew Carey"

Wanna turn on ET cause I'm a gossip freak
And I gotta know who J. Lo is marryin' this week
A 30 second spot then we go back to "Are You Hot?"
I was planning on recording "The Sopranos". I forgot!
I love shows with or without a plot
I stare 'til my legs are numb, my eyes bloodshot
Because I only have got one brain to rot
I'm gonna spend my life watching television a lot

(You're gonna) lose your mind watching TV they told me
They scold me, but I still tune into every show
My cable's gets C-SPAN, TV-Land, and HBO
The Sci-Fi Channel and AMC and Lifetime

(You're gonna) lose your mind watching TV they told me
Cajoled me, "Turn off that Oprah Winfrey show!"
I got it on C-SPAN, TV Land and HBO
The Learning Channel and MTV and Lifetime

You can watch anything you want to, man.

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight

I keep looking for something I can't get
Broken hearts lie all around me
And I don't see an easy way to get out of this
Her diary it sits on the bedside table
The curtains are closed, the cats in the cradle
Who would've thought that a boy like me could come to this

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been some kind of kiss
I should've walked away

Is there any just cause for feeling like this?
On the surface I'm a name on a list
I try to be discreet, but then blow it again
I've lost and found, it's my final mistake
She's loving by proxy, no give and all take
'cos I've been thrilled to fantasy one too many times

Oh I, I just died in your arms...

It was a long hot night
She made it easy, she made it feel right
But now it's over the moment has gone
I followed my hands not my head, I know I was wrong

Oh I, I just died in your arms...

And, since that was so short...

Can you hear me calling,
Out your name,
You know that I'm falling,
And I don't know what to say.

I'll speak a little louder,
I'll even shout,
You know that I'm proud,
And I can't get the words out.

Oh I...
I want to be with you everywhere.
Oh I...
I want to be with you everywhere,
Wanna be with you everywhere.

Something's happening,
Happening to me,
My friends say I'm acting peculiarly.

C'mon, baby,
We better make a start,
You better make it soon,
Before you break my heart.

Oh I...
I want to be with you everywhere.
Oh I...
I want to be with you everywhere.
Wanna be with you everywhere.

Can you hear me calling,
Out your name,
You know that I'm falling,
And I don't know what to say.

Come along, baby,
We better make a start,
You better make it soon,
Before you break my heart.

Oh, I...
I want to be with you everywhere.
Oh, I...
I want to be with you everywhere.
Oh, I...

Oh, I...
I want to be with you everywhere,
Wanna be with you everywhere.

I linger in the doorway
Of alarm clock screaming
Monsters calling my name
Let me stay
Where the wind will whisper to me
Where the raindrops
As they’re falling tell a story

In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds of lullaby
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me

Don’t say I’m out of touch
With this rampant chaos- your reality
I know well what lies beyond my sleeping refuge
The nightmare I built my own world to escape

In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds of lullaby
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me

Swallowed up in the sound of my screaming
Cannot cease for the fear of silent nights
Oh how I long for the deep sleep dreaming
The goddess of imaginary light

My black backpack stuffed with broken dreams
Twenty bucks should get me through the week
Never said a word of discontentment
Thought it a thousand times but now
I'm leaving home

Here in the shadows
I'm safe, I'm free
I've nowhere else to go
but I cannot stay where I don't belong

Two months pass by and it's getting cold
I know I'm not lost I'm just alone
But I won't cry, I won't give up, I can't go back now
Waking up is knowing who you really are

Here in the shadows
I'm safe, I'm free
I've nowhere else to go
but I cannot stay where I don't belong

In the shadows
I'm safe, I'm free
I've nowhere else to go
but I cannot stay here

Oh, show me the shadow where true meaning lies
So much more dismay in empty eyes.

You’re too important for anyone
You play the role of all you want to be
But I, I know who you really are
You’re the one who cries when you’re alone

But where will you go
With no one left to save you from yourself
You can’t escape
You can’t escape

You think that I can’t see right through your eyes
Scared to death to face reality
No one seems to hear your hidden cries
You’re left to face yourself alone

But where will you go
With no one left to save you from yourself
You can’t escape
You can’t escape

I realize you’re afraid
But you can’t abandon everyone
You can’t escape
You don’t want to escape

I’m so sick of speaking words that no one understands
Is it clear enough that you can’t live your whole life all alone
I can hear you in a whisper
But you can’t even hear me screaming

But where will you go
With no one left to save you from yourself
You can’t escape
You can’t escape

I realize you’re afraid
But you can’t reject the whole world
You can’t escape
You won’t escape
You can’t escape
You don’t want to escape

I still remember the world
From the eyes of a child
Slowly those feelings
Were clouded by what I know now

Where has my heart gone
An uneven trade for the real world
I want to go back to
Believing in everything and knowing nothing at all

I still remember the sun
Always warm on my back
Somehow it seems colder now

Where has my heart gone
Trapped in the eyes of a stranger
I want to go back to
Believing in everything

Where has my heart gone
An uneven trade for the real world
I want to go back to
Believing in everything and knowing nothing at all

*IP convinced himself to force himself out of his ongoing writing slump and start up a piece of original fiction.

It isn't going well. This song isn't really about such, but I dedicate it to my inability to get the story off the ground anyway. :P

Don't think me unkind,
Words are hard to find,
They're only checks I've left unsigned,
In the banks of chaos in my mind.

But when their eloquence escapes me,
Their logic ties me up and rapes me.

De do do do, de da da da,
Is all I want to say to you,
De do do do, de da da da,
Their innocence will pull me through.

De do do do, de da da da,
Is all I want to say to you,
De do do do, de da da da,
They're meaningless and all that's true.

Poets, priests, and politicians,
Have words to thank for their positions,
Words that scream for your submission,
No one's jamming their transistion.

But when their eloquence escapes you,
Their logic ties you up and rapes you.

De do do do, de da da da,
Is all I want to say to you.
De do do do, de da da da,
Their innocence will pull me through.

...And now, because Sting is nifty...

In Europe and America,
There's a growing feeling of hysteria,
Conditioned to respond to all the threats,
In the rhetorical speeches of the Soviets.

Mister Kruschev said, "We will bury you,"
I don't subscribe to this point of view,
It'd be such an ignorant thing to do,
If the Russians love their children, too.

How can I save my little boy,
From Oppenheimer's deadly toy?
There is no monopoly of common sense,
On either side of the political fence.

We share the same biology,
Regardless of ideology,
Believe me when I say to you,
I hope the Russians love their children, too.

There is no historical precedent,
To put the words in the mouth of the president?
There's no such thing as a winnable war,
It's a lie we don't believe anymore.

Mister Reagan says; "We will protect you,"
I don't subscribe to this point of view,
Believe me when I say to you,
I hope the Russians love their children, too.

We share the same biology,
Regardless of ideology,
What might save us, me and you,
Is if the Russians love their children, too.

Like a blade of a sword I am forged in flame
Fiery hot
Tempered steel fire-bright to the night I take
I fear not
Now compelled by something I cannot see
I go forth surrendering to history

Your glory, I swear I ride for thee
Your power, I trust it rides with me
Your servant, I am and ever shall I be

Through a dream
I have a come to an ancient door
Lost in the mist
I have been there a hundred times or more
Pounding my fists
Now inside, the fire of the ancient burns
A child goes in and suddenly an adult returns

I gave my word and gained a key
I gave my heart and set it free
There's no turning back from this odyssey
Because I feel so alive suddenly
And I wonder, is this really me?

Mad Dog, surrender,
How can I answer?
A man of my mind can do anything.

I'm a book-keeper's son,
I don't want to shoot no one,
Well, I crossed my old man back in Oregon,
Don't take me alive.

Got a case of dynamite,
I could hold out here all night,
Yes, I crossed my old man back in Oregon,
Don't take me alive.

Can you hear the evil crowd?
The lies and the laughter?
I hear my inside,
The mechanized hum of another world,
Where no sun is shining,
No red light flashing,
Here in this darkness,
I know what I've done,
I know all at once who I am.

I'm a book-keeper's son,
I don't want to shoot no one,
Well, I crossed my old man back in Oregon,

And a little place that sits beneath the sky
She turned her face to speak
But no-one heard her cry
I drive faster, boy
I drive faster, boy

I know there's a hope
There's too many people trying to help me cope
You got a real short skirt
I wanna look up, look up, look up, yeah yeah

We were just in time
Let me take a little more off your mind
There's something in my head
Somewhere in the back said
We were just a good thing
We were such a good thing

Make it go away without a word
But promise me you'll stay
...
Oh make it go away!

I drive faster, boy
I drive faster, boy

Oh crashing time can't hide a guilty girl
With jealous hearts that start with blossom curls
I took my baby's breath beneath the chandelier
Of stars in atmosphere
And watch her disappear
Into the midnight show...

Oh faster, faster, faster...
Oh no no no no no...
If you keep a secret
Well baby... you can keep a secret

There’s a monster that lives ‘neath your bed
Oh for crying out loud it’s a futon on the floor
He must be flat as a board

There’s a creature that lurks behind the door
Though I’ve checked there 15 times
When I leave then he arrives
Every night

Tell the monster that lives ‘neath your bed
To go somewhere else instead
Or you’ll kick him in the head

Tell the creature that lurks behind the door
If he knows what’s good he won’t come here anymore
Cause you’ll kick in his butt at the count of four

Goodnight demon slayer, goodnight
Now its time to close your tired eyes
There are devils to slay and dragons to ride
If they see you coming, hell they better hide

Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight my little slayer goodnight

Tell the monster that eats children, that you taste bad
And you’re sure you’d be the worst that he’s ever had
If he eats you, don’t fret, just cut him open with an axe
Don’t regret it, he deserved it, he’s a cad

Tell the harpies that land on your bed post
That at the count of five you’ll roast them alive
Tell the devil its time you gave him his due
He should go back to hell, he should shake in his shoes
Cause the mightiest, scariest, creature is you

Goodnight demon slayer, goodnight
Now its time to close your tired eyes
There are devils to slay and dragons to ride
If they see you coming, hell they better hide

Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight my little slayer goodnight

I won’t tell you, there’s nothing ‘neath your bed
I won’t tell you, that it’s all in your head
This world of ours is not as it seems
The monsters are real but not in your dreams
Learn what you can from the beasts you defeat,
you’ll need it for some of the people you meet

Goodnight demon slayer, goodnight
Now its time to close your tired eyes
There are devils to slay and dragons to ride
If they see you coming, hell they better hide

Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight my little slayer goodnight

Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, Worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going nowhere, Going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, No expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrows
No tomorrow, No tomorrow

And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad
These dreams in which i'm dying, Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
When people run in circles its a very very
Mad World, Mad World

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
And they feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, Sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, No one knew me
Hello teacher tell me whats my lesson
Look right through me, Look right through me

And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad
These dreams in which i'm dying, Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take

When, what, and how I'mma let this come out of my mouth
Said it ain't gon' be easy
But I need to stop thinkin', contemplatin'
Be a man and get it over with (over with)
I'm ridin' in my whip
Racin' to her place
Talkin' to myself
Preparin' to tell her to her face
She open up the door and didn't want to come near me
I said why ? tell me baby?
Please hear me

These are my confessions
Just when I thought I said all I can say
My chick on the side said she got one on the way
These are my confessions
Man I'm throwed and I don't know what to do
I guess I gotta give you part 2 of my confessions
If I'm gonna tell it then I gotta tell it all
Damn near cried when I got that phone call
I'm so throwed and I don't know what to do
But to give you part 2 of my confessions

This by far is the hardest thing I think I've ever had to do
To tell you, the woman I love
That I'm having a baby by a woman that I barely even know
I hope you can accept the fact that I'm man enough to tell you this
And hopefully you'll give me another chance
This ain't about my career
This ain't about my life
It's about us
Please

These are my confessions
Just when I thought I said all I can say
My chick on the side said she got one on the way
These are my confessions
Man I'm throwed and I don't know what to do
I guess I gotta give you part 2 of my confessions
If I'm gonna tell it then I gotta tell it all
Damn near cried when I got that phone call
I'm so throwed and I don't know what to do
But to give you part 2 of my confessions

<Rem burst in grinning>

Look at what's happened to me,
I can't believe it myself;
Suddenly I'm up on top of the world,
Should've been somebody else.

Believe it or not,
I'm walkin' on air,
I never thought I could feel so free;
Flyin' away on a wing and a pray'r,
Who could it be?
Believe it or not, it's just me.

Just like the light of new day,
It hit me from out of the blue;
Breakin' me out of the spell I was in,
Makin' all of my wishes come true.

Believe it or not,
I'm walkin' on air,
I never thought I could feel so free;
Flyin' away on a wing and a pray'r,
Who could it be?
Believe it or not, it's just me.

This is too good to be true,
Look at me
Falling for you.

Believe it or not,
Believe it or not,
Believe it or not,
Believe it or not.

Believe it or not,
I'm walkin' on air,
I never thought I could feel so free;
Flyin' away on a wing and a pray'r,
Who could it be?
Believe it or not, it's just me.

Believe it or not,
I'm walkin' on air,
I never thought I could feel so free;

Wonder of wonders, miracle of miracles-
God took up Daniel once again,
Stood by his and side and- miracle of miracles-
Walked him through the lions den!

Wonder of wonders, miracle of miracles-
I was afraid that God would frown,
But like he did so long ago, at Jericho,
God just made a wall fall down!

When Moses softened Pharaohs heart, that was a miracle.
When God made the waters of the red sea part, that was a miracle too!
But of all God's miracles large and small,
The most miraculous one of all
Is that out of a worthless lump of clay,
God has made a man today.

Wonder of wonders, miracle of miracles-
God took the tailor by the hand
Turned him around and- miracle of miracles- Led him to the promised land!

When David slew Goliath (yes!), that was a miracle.
When God gave us matter in the wilderness, that was a miracle too.
But of all God's miracles large and small,
The most miraculous one of all
Is the one I thought could never be:
God has given you to me.

Here's to our prosperity, our good health and happiness,
and most important ...

To life, to life, la chi'am,
La chi'am, la chi'am, to life,
Here's to the father I tried to be,
Here's to my bride-to-be,
Drink la chi'am, to life,

To life, to life, la chi'am,
La chi'am, la chi'am, to life,
Life has a way of confusing us,
Blessing and bruising us,
Drink la chi'am, to life!

God would like us to be joyful, even when our hearts lie
panting on the floor.
How much more can we be joyful, when there's really
something to be joyful for?

To life, to life, la chi'am,
To Tzeitel, my daughter--my wife,
It gives you something to think about,
Something to drink about,
Drink la chi'am, to life!

To Lazar Wolf--
To Tevye!
To Tzeitel, your daughter--my wife!
May all your futures be pleasant ones,
Not like our present ones,
Drink la chi'am, to life,

To life, tolife, la chi'am,
La chi'am, la chi'am, to life,
It takes a wedding to make us say,
"Let's live another day,"
Drink la chi'am, to life!

We'll raise a glass and sip a drop of schnapps in honor of the great good luck that favors you,
We know that when good fortune favors two such men, it stands to reason, we deserve it too!

To us and our good fortune!
Be happy, be healthy, long life!
And if our good fortune never comes,
Here's to whatever comes,
Drink la chi'am, to life!

Heaven bless you both, to your health and may we live
together in peace!
May you both be favored with the future of your choice,
May you live to see a thousand reasons to rejoice!

I used to tell myself,
That I had everything,
But that was only half true.
I had an aim in life,
And that was everything,
But now I even have you...
I have something that I would die for,
Someone that I can live for too, yes,
Now I have everything,
Not only everything,
I have a little bit more...
Besides having everything,
I know what everything's for.
I used to wonder could there be a wife,
To share such a difficult, wandering kind of life.

Who knows tomorrow where our home will be?

Everything is right at hand,
Simple and clear....

I have something that I could die for,

How, in every visible way, you shine
As if the stars in your wake align
Almost impossible to malign

But just below where you shine, you burn
Although I know it, I never learn
Just goes to show that I can't discern

Aluminum to me
Aluminium to some
You can shine like silver all you want
But you're just Aluminum

Illuminating just what you want to show
You'd never rust, but I'd never know
You can't be trusted, I can't let go

Aluminum to me
Aluminium to some
You can shine like silver all you want
But you're just Aluminum

Every time you're here, I forget
When you leave, you leave only regret
Every time you're here, I forget
Everything

You're so lightweight, how can you survive?
Recycling moments from others' lives
You're not as precious as you contrive

You can shine like silver all you want
But you're just Aluminum

Yeah, you're just Aluminum

Priest
Good Caiaphas,
The council waits for you,
The Pharisees and priests,
Are here for you.

Caiaphas
Ah, gentlemen, you know why we are here,
With not much time, and quite a problem here.

Crowd Outside
Hosanna! Superstar!

Annas
Listen to that howling mob,
Of blockheads in the street,
A trick or two with lepers,
And the whole town's on its feet!

All
He is dangerous! He is dangerous!

Crowd
Jesus Christ, Superstar!
Tell us that you are who they say you are!

Priests
He is dangerous, dangerous!
That man is in town right now,
To whip up some support,
A rabble rousing mission,
That I think we must abort.
He is dangerous!

Crowd
Jesus Christ, Superstar!

Priests
He is dangerous!
Look, Caiaphas!
They are right outside our yard,
Quick, Caiaphas,
Go call the Roman guard!

Caiaphas
No wait, we need a more permanent solution to our problem.

Annas
What shall we do about Jesus of Nazareth?
Miracle wonderman, hero, or fool?

Priest
No riots, no Romans, no fighting, no slogans!

Caiaphas
One thing I'll say for him, Jesus is cool.

Annas
We dare not leave him to his own devices.
His half-witted fans will get out of control.

Priest
But how can we stop him, his glamour increases,
By leaps every minute, he's top of the pole!

Caiaphas
I see bad things arising!
The crowd crown him King,
Which the Romans would ban.
I see blood and destruction!
Our elimination because of one man!
Blood and destruction!
Because of one man!
Because, because, because,
Of one man!
Our elimination because of one man!

Voices
What can we do about this Jesusmania?
How can we deal with the carpenter king?
Where do we start with a man who is bigger,
Than John was when John did his baptism thing?

Caiaphas
Fools! You have no perception,
The stakes we are gambling,
Are frighteningly high!
We must crush him completely!
So like John before him,
This Jesus must die!
For the sake of the nation,
This Jesus must die!
Must die, must die
This Jesus must die,
So like John before him,
This Jesus must die!

Jesus, I am overjoyed
To meet you face to face
You've been getting quite a name
All around the place
Healing cripples
Raising from the dead
Now I understand you're God
At least that's what you've said

So you are the Christ
You're the great Jesus Christ
Prove to me that you're divine-
Change my water into wine
That's all you need do
Then I'll know it's all true
C'mon King of the Jews

Jesus you just won't believe
The hit you've made 'round here
You are all we talk about
You're the wonder of the year
Oh what a pity
If it's all a lie
Still I'm sure
That you can rock the cynics if you try

So you are the Christ
You're the great Jesus Christ
Prove to me that you're no fool-
Walk across my swimming pool
If you do that for me
Then I'll let you go free
C'mon King of the Jews

I only ask things I'd ask any superstar
What is it that you have got
That puts you where you are? (Ohhhh)
I am waiting
Yes I'm a captive fan
I'm dying to be shown
That you are not just any man

So if you are the Christ
Yes the great Jesus Christ
Feed my household with this bread
You can do it on your head
Or has something gone wrong?
Why do you take so long?
C'mon King of the Jews

Hey! Aren't you scared of me Christ?
Mister Wonderful Christ!
You're a joke, you're not the Lord
You are nothing but a fraud
Take him away
He's got nothing to say!
Get out you King of the
Get out,
Get out you King of the Jews!
Get out you King of the Jews,
GET OUT OF MY LIFE!

Judas
My God, I saw him,
He looked three-quarters dead,
And he was so bad,
I had to turn my head,
You beat him so hard,
That he was bent and lame,
And I know who everybody's,
Going to blame,
I don't believe he knows,
I acted for our good,
I'd save him all the suffering,
If I could,
Don't believe,
Our good,
Save him,
If I could.

Priest
Cut the confessions,
Forget the excuses,
I don't understand why,
You're filled with remorse,
All that you've said,
Has come true with a vengence,
The mob has turned against him,
You've backed the right horse.

Caiaphas
What you have done,
Will be the saving of Israel,
You'll be remembered forever,
For this,
And not only that,
You've been paid for your efforts,
Pretty good wages,
For one little kiss.

Judas
Christ!
I know you can't hear me,
But I only did what you wanted me to,
Christ!
I'd sell out the nation,
For I have been saddled,
With the murder of you,
I have been spattered,
With innocent blood,
I should be dragged,
Through the slime and the mud,
I have been spattered,
With innocent blood,
I should be dragged,
Through the slime and the mud.

I don't know how to love him,
I don't know why he moves me,
He's a man,
He's just a man,
He's not a king,
He's just the same,
As anyone I know,
He scares me so!
When he's cold and dead,
Will he let me be?
Does he love me too?
Does he care for me?
Ohhhhh...

My mind is darkness now,
My God, I am sick,
I've been used,
And you knew,
All the time,
God, I'll never ever know,
Why you chose me for your crime,
For your foul bloody crime,
You have murdered me!
You have murdered me!

So long, Judas,
Poor old Judas.

Never know how much I love you,
Never know how much I care.
When you put your arms around me,
I get a fever that's so hard to bear.

You give me fever,
When you kiss me,
Fever when you hold me tight.
Fever! In the morning,
Fever all through the night.

Sun lights up the daytime
And moon lights up the night..
I light up when you call my name
And you know I'm gonna treat you right

You give me fever
When you kiss me,
Fever when you hold me tight.
Fever! In the morning,
And fever all through the night

Everybody's got the fever
That is something you all know
Fever isn't such a new thing
Fever started long ago

Romeo loved Juliette
Juliette she felt the same
When he put his arms around her he said,
"Julie, Baby , you're my flame

"Thou giveth fever
"When we kisseth
"Fever with thy flaming youth
"Fever! I'm afire,
"Fever, yeah, I burn, forsooth."

Cap'in Smith and Pocahontas had a very mad affair
When her daddy tried to kill him
She said,
"Daddy, oh, don't you dare!

"He gives me fever
"With his kisses
"Fever when he holds me tight
"Fever! I'm his misses, So
"Daddy, Won't you treat him right?"

Now you've listened to my story,
Here's the point that I have made:
Chicks were born to give you fever,
Be it Fahrenheit or Centigrade

They give you fever
When you kiss them
Fever if you live and learn
Fever! 'till you sizzle

what a lovely way to burn
what a lovely way to burn
what a lovely way to burn

Harbors open their arms to the young searching
Foreigner
Come to live in the light of the beacon of liberty

Planes and open skies, billboards would advertise
Was it anything like that when you arrived?
Dreamboats carried the future to the heart of America
People were waiting in line for a place by the river

It was a time when strangers were welcome here
Music would play
They tell me the days were sweet and clear
It was a sweeter tune and there was so much room
That people could come from everywhere

Now he arrives with his hopes and his heart set on miracles
Come to marry his fortune with a handful of promises
To find they've closed the door
They don't want him anymore
There isn't anymore to go around
Turning away he remembers he once heard a legend
That spoke of a mystical, magical land called America

It was a time when strangers were welcome here
Music would play
They tell me the days were sweet and clear
It was a sweeter tune and there was so much room
That people could come from everywhere

It was a time when strangers were welcome here
Music would play
They tell me the days were sweet and clear
It was a sweeter tune and there was so much room
That people could come from everywhere

It was a time when strangers were welcome here

To watch the stoic squirm

You're uninvited

Heed my advice,
Don't have your heart sliced,
In two by young Tybalt's blade,
Everyone dies, but I always thought,
An exception for me would be made,
A plague on both of your houses,
You ought to be dying instead,
I had the whole world,
But I lost my soul,

Sorry you ever met that twit!

In that Paris won't inherit,
All my life insurance benefits!

Before someone gets in,

I have got to see that musical.

Just talked to this girl who used to live on my street
After all these years you're here and you remember me
She said her old boyfriend
Packed up and headed back east
But she always knew someday he would go
She just got a new job and she doubts it will last
So let's take a drink and never think and here's to the past
She says it's so funny how life burns out so fast
It's just another wasted day

A boring life in a boring town
In the same old crowd
And I used to say that I'd never stay
But I'm rotting here today
With that same old crowd that's always been around
And I always thought I'd be the first to go

That same old crowd that drags me down
Another day in a boring town
That same old crowd that brings me down
A boring life in a boring town

Just talked to this girl who used to live here on my street
After all these years you're here
And it's still just you and me
Somtimes I can't believe after all these years
I just think that I'll never leave here
She said it's so funny how life burns out so fast
So let's take another drink and here's to the past

That same old crowd that drags me down
Another day in a boring town
That same old crowd that brings me down
A boring life in a boring town

And remember when they'd look through you
And they'd look past me
We were the ones they said would always leave
So when you go just think of me
Think of me
Think of me

A boring life in a boring town
In the same old crowd
And I used to say that I'd never stay
But I'm rotting here today
With that same old crowd that's always been around
And I always thought that
Yeah and I always thought that
Yeah I'd always thought that I'd be
The first to go

A boring life
A boring town
A boring life
A boring town

Shoes upon the table,
An' a spider's been killed,
Someone broke the lookin' glass,
A full moon shinin',
An' the salt's been spilled.
You're walkin' on pavement cracks,
Don't know what's gonna come to pass,
Y'know the Devil's got y'number,
Y'know he's gonna find y',
Y' know he's right behind y',
He's starin' through the windows,
He's creeping down the hall.

Ain't no point in clutching,
At your rosary,
You're always gonna know what was done,
Even when you shut your eyes you can still see,
That you sold a son,
And you can't tell anyone,
But y'know the Devil's got y'number.
Y'know he's gonna find y'.
Y'know he's right behind y'.
He's standin' on your step.
And he's knocking at your door.
And he's knocking at your door.

It's all about the Pentiums, baby
It's all about the Pentiums!

What y'all wanna do?
Wanna be hackers? Code crackers? Slackers
Wastin' time with all the chatroom yakkers?
9 to 5, chillin' at Hewlett Packard?
Workin' at a desk with a dumb little placard?
Yeah, payin' the bills with my mad programming skills
Defraggin' my hard drive for thrills
I got me a hundred gigabytes of RAM
I never feed trolls and I don't read spam
Installed a T1 line in my house
Always at my PC, double-clickin' on my MS Mouse
Upgrade my system at least twice a day
I'm strictly plug-and-play, I ain't afraid of Y2K
I'm down with Bill Gates, I call him Money for short
I phone him up at home and I make him do my tech support
It's all about the Pentiums, what?
You gotta be the dumbest newbie I've ever seen
You've got white-out all over your screen
You think your Commodore 64 is really neato
What kinda chip you got in there, a Dorito?
You're usin' a 286? Don't make me laugh
Your Windows boots up in what, a day and a half?
You could back up your whole hard drive on a floppy diskette
You're the biggest joke on the Internet
Your database is a disaster
You're waxin' your modem, tryin' to make it go faster
Hey fella, I bet you're still livin' in your parents' cellar
Downloadin' pictures of Sarah Michelle Gellar
And postin' "Me too!" like some brain-dead AOL-er
I should do the world a favor and cap you like Old Yeller
You're just about as useless as jpegs to Helen Keller

It's all about the Pentiums!
It's all about the Pentiums!
It's all about the Pentiums!
It's all about the Pentiums!

What y'all wanna do?
Wanna be hackers? Code crackers? Slackers
Wastin' time with all the chatroom yakkers?
9 to 5, chillin' at Hewlett Packard?

Uh, uh, loggin' in now
Wanna run wit my crew, hah?
Rule cyberspace and crunch numbers like I do?
They call me the king of the spreadsheets
Got'em all printed out on my bedsheets
My new computer's got the clocks, it rocks
But it was obsolete before I opened the box
You say you've had your desktop for over a week?
Throw that junk away, man, it's an antique!

Your laptop is a month old? Well, that's great
If you could use a nice, heavy paperweight
My digital media is write-protected
Every file inspected, no viruses detected
I beta tested every operating system
Gave props to some, and others? I dissed'em
While your computer's crashin', mine's multitaskin'
It does all my work without me even askin'
Got a flat-screen monitor, 40" wide
I believe that yours says, "Etch-A-Sketch" on the side
In a 32-bit world, you're a 2-bit user
You've got your own newsgroup, alt.total-loser
Your motherboard melts when you try to send a fax
Where'd you get your CPU, in a box of Cracker Jacks?
Play me online? Well, you know that I'll beat you
If I ever meet you I'll control-alt-delete you
What?

It's all about the Pentiums!
It's all about the Pentiums!
It's all about the Pentiums!

Passive fields. January two thousand and twelve.
A nation that stands alone.
Cold voices, faces pale,
Gathered unto their judgement day.
Such pride remains unbroken.
Such words remain unspoken.
Just mothers to stand in vain and cry.
Tears and medals in the rain.
Shall I recall when justice did prevail?
No reason to be found why reason did fail.
The all clear resounding.
The way was clear to rebuild this land.
Shall I call on you to guide me well,
To see our hopes and dreams fulfilled?
On this day of our ascension.

Stand your ground this is what we are fighting for.
For our spirit and laws and ways.
Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war.
For heaven or hell we shall not wait.
Shall I think of honour as lies
Or lament its aged and slow demise?
Shall I stand as a total stranger
On this day in this stone chamber?

Trying to keep myself out of the rain
Saw a vagabond king wear a styrofoam crown
Wondered if I might end up the same
There's a man out on the corner, singing old songs about change
Everybody got their cross to bare, these days

She came looking for some shelter with a suitcase full of dreams
To a motel room on the boulevard
I guess she's trying to be James Dean
She's seen all the disciples and all the wanna be's
No one wants to be themselves these days
Still there's nothing to hold on to but these days

These days - the stars seem out of reach
These days - there ain't a ladder on these streets
These days - are fast, love don't last in this graceless age
There ain't anybody left but us these days

Jimmy shoes busted both his legs, trying to learn to fly
From a second story window, he just jumped and closed his eyes
His mamma said he was crazy - he said mamma "I've got to try"
Don't you know that all my heroes died
And I guess I'd rather die than fade away

These days - the stars seem out of reach
But these days - there ain't a ladder on the streets
These days - are fast, nothing lasts in this graceless age
Even innocence has caught the midnight train
And there ain't anybody left but but us these days

I know Rome's still burning
Though the times have changed
This world keeps turning round and round and round and round
These days

These days - the stars seem out of reach
But these days - there ain't a ladder on the streets
These days - are fast, nothing lasts in this graceless age
Even innocence has caught the midnight train
And there ain't anybody left but but us these days

These days - the stars seem out of reach
These days - there ain't a ladder on the streets
These days - are fast, nothing lasts in this graceless age

Waiting for the welfare dime
'cause they can't buy a job

Just for fun he says "get a job"

That's just the way it is
Some things will never change
That's just the way it is
But don't you believe them

They say hey little boy you can't go
Where the others go
'cause you don't look like they do
Said hey old man how can you stand
To think that way
Did you really think about it
Before you made the rules
He said, son

That's just the way it is
Some things will never change
That's just the way it is

Well they passed a law in '64
To give those who ain't got a little more
But it only goes so far
Because the law another's mind

Is the line on the color bar

Well she seemed all right by dawn's early light
though she looked a little worried and weak.
She tried to pretend he wasn't drinkin' again
but daddy'd left the proof on her cheek.
And i was only eight years old that summer
and i always seemed to be in the way
so i took myself down to the fair in town
on Independence Day.

Well,word gets around in a small,small town
they said he was a dangerous man
but mama was proud and she stood her ground
but she knew she was on the losin' end.
Some folks whispered and some folks talked
but everybody looked the other way
and when time ran out there was no one about
on Independence Day.

Let freedom ring,let the white dove sing
let the whole world know that today
is a day of reckoning.
Let the weak be strong,let the right be wrong
roll the stone away,let the guilty pay
it's Independence Day.

Well,she lit up the sky that fourth of july
by the time that the firemen come
they just put out the flames
and took down some names
and send me to the county home.
Now i ain't sayin' it's right or it's wrong
but maybe it's the only way.
Talk about your revolution
it's Independence Day.

Let freedom ring,let the white dove sing
let the whole world know that today
is a day of reckoning.
Let the weak be strong,let the right be wrong
roll the stone away,let the guilty pay

It's nothing, it's so normal you
just stand there I could say so much
but I don't go there cuz I don't want to
I was thinking if you were lonely
maybe we could leave here and no one would know
at least not to the point that we would think so

Everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking about
somebody else
it's best if we all keep it under our heads
I couldn't tell, if anyone here was feeling the way I do
but I'm lonely now, and I don't know how
to get it back to good

This don't mean that, you own me
this ain't no good, in fact it's phony as hell
but things worked out just like you wanted too
if you see me out you don't know me
try to turn your head, try to give me some room
to figure out just what I'm going to do

And everyone here, hates everyone here for doing just like they do
it's best if we all keep this quiet instead
and I couldn't tell, why everyone here was doing me like they do
but I'm sorry now, and I don't know how
to get it back to good

Everyone here, is wondering what it's like to be with
somebody else
everyone here's to blame, everyone here
gets caught up in the pleasure of the pain, everyone hides shades of shame, but looking inside we're the same, we're the same
and we're all grown now, but we don't know how
to get it back to good

Everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking 'bout
somebody else
it's best if we all keep this under our heads
I couldn't tell, if anyone here was feeling the way I do
but it's over now, and I don't know how, it's over now
there's no getting back to good

Another turning point
A fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist
Directs you where to go
So make the best of this test
And don’t ask why
It’s not a question
But a lesson learned in time
It’s something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

So take the photographs
And still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf of
Good health and good time
Tattoos of memories
And dead skin on trial
For what it’s worth
It was worth all the while
It’s something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

It’s something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

And unpack your suitcase

Rumour has it that your daddy's coming down,
He's gonna pay the rent.
Tell me baby, is this as good as life is gonna get?
It feels like there is a stranger standing in these shoes,
But, I know I can't lose me, 'cause then I'd be losing you.

I know I promised, baby,
I would be the one to make our dreams come true,
I ain't too proud of all the struggles,
And the hard times we've been through.
When this cold world comes between us,
Please tell me you'll be brave,

'Cause I can realize the danger when forgiveness fades away,
If you don't love me - lie to me,
'Cause baby you're the one thing I believe,
Let it all fall down around us, if that's what's meant to be,
Right now if you don't love me baby - lie to me.

Pour another cup of coffee, babe I got something to say to you,
I ain't got the winning ticket,
Not the one that's gonna pull us through,
No one said it'd be easy, let your old man take you home,
But know if you walk out on me,
That darling, I'd be gone.

If you don't love me - lie to me,
'Cause baby you're the one thing I believe,
Let it all fall down around us, if that's what's meant to be,
Right now if you don't love me baby - lie to me,
Baby - I can take it.

It's a bitch, but life's a roller coaster ride,
The ups and downs will make you scream sometimes,
It's hard believing that the thrill is gone,
But we got to go around again, so let's hold on.

If you don't love me - lie to me,
'Cause baby you're the one thing I believe,
Let it all fall down around us, if that's what's meant to be,
Right now if you don't love me baby - lie to me, lie to me,
Baby I can take it,

CHORUS
Here the sire may serve the dam,
here the master takes his meat!
Here the sacrificial lamb
utters one despairing bleat!

CARLOTTA AND CHORUS
Poor young maiden! For the thrill
on your tongue of stolen sweets
you will have to pay the bill -
tangled in the winding sheets!

Serve the meal and serve the maid!
Serve the master so that, when
tables, plans and maids are laid,
Don Juan triumphs once again!

DON JUAN
Passarino, faithful friend,
once again recite the plan.

PASSARINO
Your young guest believes I'm you -
I, the master, you, the man.

DON JUAN
When you met you wore my cloak,
with my scarf you hid your face.
She believes she dines with me,
in her master's borrowed place!
Furtively, we'll scoff and quaff,
stealing what, in truth, is mine.
When it's late and modesty
starts to mellow, with the wine . . .

PASSARINO
You come home! I use your voice -
slam the door like crack of doom!

DON JUAN
I shall say: "Come - hide with me!
Where, oh, where? Of course - my room!"

PASSARINO
Poor thing hasn't got a chance!

DON JUAN
Here's my hat, my cloak and sword.
Conquest is assured,
if I do not forget myself and laugh . . .

AMINTA
". . . No thoughts
within her head,
but thoughts of joy!
No dreams
within her heart
but dreams of love!"

PASSARINO
Master?

DON JUAN
Passarino - go away!
For the trap is set and waits for its prey . . .

DON JUAN
You have come here
in pursuit of
your deepest urge,
in pursuit of
that wish,
which till now
has been silent,
silent . . .

I have brought you,
that our passions
may fuse and merge -
in your mind
you've already
succumbed to me
dropped all defences
completely succumbed to me -
now you are here with me:
no second thoughts,
you've decided,
decided . . .

Past the point
of no return -
no backward glances:
the games we've played
till now are at
an end . . .
Past all thought
of "if" or "when" -
no use resisting:
abandon thought,
and let the dream
descend . . .

What raging fire
shall flood the soul?
What rich desire
unlocks its door?
What sweet seduction
lies before
us . . .?

Past the point
of no return,
the final threshold -
what warm,
unspoken secrets
will we learn?
Beyond the point
of no return . . .

AMINTA
You have brought me
to that moment
where words run dry,
to that moment
where speech
disappears
into silence,
silence . . .

I have come here,
hardly knowing
the reason why . . .
In my mind,
I've already
imagined our
bodies entwining
defenceless and silent -
and now I am
here with you:
no second thoughts,


I've decided,
decided . . .

Past the point
of no return -
no going back now:
our passion-play
has now, at last,
begun . . .
Past all thought
of right or wrong -
one final question:
how long should we
two wait, before
we're one . . .?

When will the blood
begin to race
the sleeping bud
burst into bloom?
When will the flames,
at last, consume
us . . .?

BOTH
Past the point
of no return
the final threshold -
the bridge
is crossed, so stand
and watch it burn . . .
We've passed the point
of no return . . .

PHANTOM
Say you'll share with
me one
love, one lifetime . . .
Lead me, save me
from my solitude . . .

Say you want me
with you,
here beside you . . .
Anywhere you go
let me go too -
Christine
that's all I ask of . . .

A decade ago
I never thought I would be at twenty three
on the verge of spontaneous combustion.
Woe-is-me.
But I guess that it comes with the territory;
an ominous landscape of never ending calamity.
I need you to hear
I need you to see that I have had all I can take
and exploding seems like a definite possibility to me.

So pardon me while I burst into flames.
I've had enough of the world
and it's people's mindless games.
So pardon me while I burn
and rise above the flame.
Pardon me
pardon me....
I'll never be the same.

Not two days ago
I was having a look in a book
and I saw a picture of a guy
fried up above his knees.
I said, "I can relate,"
cause' lately I've been thinking of combustication
as a welcomed vacation
from the burdens of the planet earth.

Like gravity, hypocrisy, and the perils of being in 3-D...
and thinking so much differently.
So pardon me while I burst into flames.

But then if you're so smart, tell me
Why are you still so afraid?

Where's the fire, what's the hurry about?
You'd better cool it off before you burn it out
You've got so much to do and
Only so many hours in a day

But you know that when the truth is told..
That you can get what you want or you get old
You're gonna kick off before you even
Get halfway through
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you?

Slow down, you're doing fine
You can't be everything you want to be
Before your time
Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight
Tonight,...
Too bad but it's the life you lead
you're so ahead of yourself that you forgot what you need
Though you can see when you're wrong, you know
You can't always see when you're right. you're right

You've got your passion, you've got your pride
but don't you know that only fools are satisfied?
Dream on, but don't imagine they'll all come true
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you?

Slow down, you crazy child
and take the phone off the hook and disappear for awhile
it's all right, you can afford to lose a day or two
When will you realize,..Vienna waits for you?
And you know that when the truth is told
that you can get what you want or you can just get old
You're gonna kick off before you even get half through
Why don't you realize,. Vienna waits for you
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you?

Sometimes it scares me when I find lyrics that exactly delineate what I'm feeling...

Dedicated.

Well, I'm alone and I'm feeling lost
If I could only have it all
Then I'd be alright
'Cause I can't see who I really am
Through all the doubt that I'm living in
But I know it, yeah
Right before I hit the ground

Why am I losing sleep?
Yeah, feeling like I do
Why am I losing you?
And I'm feeling lost

There's a dark cloud over me
And I can't shake it off
I can't make a move to save myself
Thoughts keep spin' into my head
All the times that we never did
What we want to, yeah
Right before I hit the ground
It's just like a dream

Why am I losing sleep?
Yeah, feeling like I do
Why am I losing you?
And I'm feeling lost

The distance grows, I'm sinking down
And what I lost, it can't be found
Although I try
Can't find my way
Nothing is falling into place
Oh, no no
And I'm feeling lost...
I feel, I feel, yeah, It's just like a dream

Why am I losing sleep?
Yeah, feeling like I do
Why am I losing you?
And I'm feeling lost
Why am I losing sleep?
Yeah, feeling like I do
Why am I losing you?
And I'm feeling lost

also Dedicated

lying in my bed i hear the clock tick,
And think of you
Caught up in circles confusion
Is nothing new
Flashback warm nights
Almost left behind
Suitcases of memories,
Time after

Sometimes you picture me
I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me, i can't hear
What you've said
Then you say go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds

If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall i will catch you i'll be waiting
Time after time

If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall i will catch you i'll be waiting
Time after time

After my picture fades and darkness has
Turned to gray
Watching through windows you're wondering
If i'm ok
Secrets stolen from deep inside
The drum beats out of time

If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall i will catch you i'll be waiting
Time after time

You said go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds

If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall i will catch you i'll be waiting
Time after time

If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall i will catch you i'll be waiting
Time after time

Time after time
Time after time

First song I had plying when I got home from work. Isn't it coincidental?

Yeh, this one's for the workers who toil night and day
By hand and by brain to earn your pay
Who for centuries long past for no more than your bread
Have bled for your countries and counted your dead

In the factories and mills, in the shipyards and mines
We've often been told to keep up with the times
For our skills are not needed, they've streamlined the job
And with sliderule and stopwatch our pride they have robbed

We're the first ones to starve, we're the first ones to die
The first ones in line for that pie-in-the-sky
And we're always the last when the cream is shared out
For the worker is working when the fat cat's about

And when the sky darkens and the prospect is war
Who's given a gun and then pushed to the fore
And expected to die for the land of our birth
Though we've never owned one lousy handful of earth?

We're the first ones to starve, we're the first ones to die
The first ones in line for that pie-in-the-sky
And we're always the last when the cream is shared out
For the worker is working when the fat cat's about

We're the first ones to starve, we're the first ones to die
The first ones in line for that pie-in-the-sky
And we're always the last when the cream is shared out
For the worker is working when the fat cat's about

We're the first ones to starve, we're the first ones to die
The first ones in line for that pie-in-the-sky
And we're always the last when the cream is shared out
For the worker is working when the fat cat's about

And all of these things the worker has done
From tilling the fields to carrying the gun
We've been yoked to the plough since time first began
And always expected to carry the can

I'm as mild and as meek as a mouse
When I hear a command, I obey.
But I know of a spot in my house
where no one can stand in my way.
In my own little corner, in my own
litte chair

I can be whatever I want to be
On the wings of my fancy I can fly
anywhere and the world will open
it's arms to me
I'm a young Egyptian princess or a
milk-maid
I'm the greatest prima-donna in Milan
I'm a heiress who has always had her
silk made by her own flock of
silk-worms in Japan

I'm a girl men go mad for, love's a
game I can play with a cool and
confident kind of air
Just as long as I stay in my own
little corner
All alone, in my own, little chair.

I can be whatever I want to be
I'm a thief in Calcutta, I'm a
queen in Peru
I'm a mermaid dancing upon the sea

I'm a huntress on an African Safari
It's a dangerous type of sport
and yet it's fun
In the night I sally-forth to seek
my quarry and I find I forgot to
bring my gun.

I am lost in the jungle all alone
and unarmed when I meet a lioness
in her lair!
Then I'm glad to be back in my own
little corner
All alone, in my own, little chair.

I think it was Steahl who made hte comment about how a song cna perfectly match what you're feeling.

I guess, at the moment, this one is mine.

Cradling the softest, warmest part of you in my hand
Feels like a little baby bird fallen from the nest
I think that your body is something i understand
O think that i'm happy, i think that i'm blessed

I've got a lack of inhibition
I've got a loss of perspective
I've had a little bit to drink
And it's making me think
That i can jump ship and swim
That the ocean will hold me
That there's got to be more
Than this boat I'm in

'Cause they can call me crazy if I fail
All the chance that I need
Is one-in-a-million
And they can call me brilliant
If I succeed
Gravity is nothing to me, moving at the speed of sound
I'm just going to get my feet wet
Until I drown

I teeter between tired
And really, really tired
I'm wiped and I'm wired
but I guess it's just as well
Because I've built my own empire
Out of car tires and chicken wire
And I'm queen of my own compost heap
I'm getting used to the smell

And I've got a lack of information
But I got a little revelation
And I'm climbing up on the railing
Trying not to look down
I'm going to do my best swan dive
Into shark-infested waters
I'm gonna pull out my tampon
And start splashing around

'Cause I don't care if they eat me alive
I've got better things to do than survive
I've got a memory of your warm skin in my hand
And I've got a vision of blue sky and dry land

I'm cradling the hardest, heaviest part of me in my hand
The ship is pitching and heaving,
My limbs are bobbing and weaving
And I think this is what I understand

I just need a couple vaccinations for my far-away vacation
I'm going to go ahead and go boldly
Because a little bird told me
That the jumping is easy,
The falling is fun
Right up until you hit the sidewalk,
Shivering, stunned

And they can call me crazy if I fail
All the chance that I need
Is one-in-a-million
And they can call me brilliant
If I succeed
Gravity is nothing to me
Moving at the speed of sound
Im just gonna get my feet wet
Until I drown...

This used to be my playground [used to be]
This used to be my childhood dream
This used to be the place I ran to
Whenever I was in need
Of a friend
Why did it have to end
And why do they always say

Don't look back
Keep your head held high
Don't ask them why
Because life is short
And before you know
You're feeling old
And your heart is breaking
Don't hold on to the past
Well that's too much to ask

Live and learn
Well the years they flew
And we never knew
We were foolish then
We would never tire
And that little fire
Is still alive in me
It will never go away
Can't say goodbye to yesterday [can't say goodbye]

This used to be my playground [used to be]
This used to be my childhood dream
This used to be the place I ran to
Whenever I was in need
Of a friend
Why did it have to end
And why do they always say

No regrets
But I wish that you
Were here with me
Well then there's hope yet
I can see your face
In our secret place
You're not just a memory
Say goodbye to yesterday [the dream]
Those are words I'll never say [I'll never say]

This used to be my playground [used to be]
This used to be our pride and joy
This used to be the place we ran to
That no one in the world could dare destroy

This used to be our playground [used to be]
This used to be our childhood dream
This used to be the place we ran to
I wish you were standing here with me

This used to be our playground [used to be]
This used to be our great escape
This used to be the place we ran to
This used to be our secret hiding place

This used to be our playground [used to be]
This used to be our childhood dream
This used to be the place we ran to
The best things in life are always free
Wishing you were here with me

Thursday's crush is a Friday night rush
And a Monday morning cry
It's the tail that you keep chasing
And it gets away every time

New Years Eve and it's hard to believe
Another Zodiac's gone around
While you drank yourself high on hoping
And watched the ceiling spin from the ground

Counting down from ten it's time
To make your annual prayer
Secret Santa in the sky
When will I get my share

Then you tell yourself
What you want to hear
Cause you have to believe
This will be my year

Pound your fist and cross it off your list
But you know you're not that strong
When the man at the stop light catches you
Singing along to a brand new song

Well maybe it's
Trash or the overnight smash that brings a
Ship crashing through your wall
So you can make your grand departure
From a world getting way too small

One wheel in the ditch another
Spinning in the air
Put your pedal down to the floorboards but you're not
Getting anywhere

Then you tell yourself
What you want to hear
Cause you have to believe
This will be my year

There's a reason why
You can look up every night
Every star in heaven is in its place
There's a reason why
The ferment pulls up tight
And waves rolling to a shore that always wades
And just like that

Baby you belong
Oh, baby you belong
Nothing's ever been so meant to be
You ever felt so right to me
Every single part of me believes
Baby you belong
Oh, baby you belong
There really is no mystery
I think anyone can see
That baby you belong with me

There's a voice in the silence
And I heard it from
When you came along
I know you by heart
Like a familiar song
Every word is telling me
That the time has finally come
Now here you are
And I know for sure

Baby you belong
Oh, baby you belong
Nothing's ever been so meant to be
You ever felt so right to me
Every single part of me believes
Baby you belong
Oh, baby you belong
There really is no mystery
I think anyone can see
That baby you belong with me

Like the sun belongs up in the morning sky
For at least another million reasons why

He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn't play for the money he wins
He don't play for respect

He deals the cards to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden law of a probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart

He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart.

And if I told you that I loved you
You'd maybe think there's something wrong
I'm not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one

Well, those who speak know nothin'
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who fear are lost

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
But that's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart

*walks up, taps mike with claw and grins*

This is the greatest and
best song in the world.
Tribute.

Long time ago me an my
brother Kyle here.
We was hitch hikin down
a long and lonesome road.

All of a sudden
there shined a shiny demon
in the middle, of the road.

And he said,

"Play the best song in
the world or I'll eat
your souls."

Well me an Kyle
we looked at eachother
and we each said, "Okay."

And we played the first
thing that came to our heads
and it just so happened to be
the best song in the world.
It was the best song in the world.

Look into my eyes and its easy to see
one and one make two
two and one make three.
It was destiny.
Once every hundred thousand years
or so when the sun doth shine
and the moon doth glow
and the grass doth grow.

Needless to say,
the beast was stunned.
A whip crack with its whippy tail
and the beast was done.

He asked us *snort* "Be you angels?"
And we said, "Nay, we are but men!
Rock!"

*begins to jam out on air guitar*

This is not the greatest song in the world,
No, this is just a tribute.
Couldn't remember the greatest song in the world
No, this is a tribute, oh
to the greatest song in the world.
It was the greatest song in the world.

*bit of musical nonsense*

And the peculiar thing is this my friends
that song we sang on that faithful night
it didn't actually sound anything like this song!

This is just a tribute,
you gotta believe it
and I wish you were there,
just a matter of opinion.

Good god, gotta love ya
its no surprise to find can't
stop ya!

I'm firey an I'm foul
Rich mother f**


All right!
Oh right!

Empty spaces - what are we living for?
Abandoned places - I guess we know the score
On and on, does anybody know what we are looking for...?

Another hero, another mindless crime
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime
Hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore?

The show must go on,
The show must go on
Inside my heart is breaking
My make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on.

Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance
Another heartache, another failed romance
On and on, does anybody know what we are living for?

I guess I'm learning, I must be warmer now
I'll soon be turning, round the corner now
Outside the dawn is breaking
But inside in the dark I'm aching to be free

The show must go on
The show must go on
Inside my heart is breaking
My make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on

My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies
Fairytales of yesterday will grow but never die
I can fly - my friends

The show must go on
The show must go on
I'll face it with a grin
I'm never giving in

On - with the show -
I'll top the bill, I'll overkill
I have to find the will to carry on
On with the -
On with the show -

When it all goes crazy and the thrill is gone
When the days get rainy and the nights get long
When you get that feelin you were born to lose
Starin' at your ceiling feelin' the blues

When there's so much trouble that you want to cry
When your love has crumbled and you don't know why
When your hopes are fading and they can't be found
Dreams have left you waiting friends let you down

Well just remember I love you
And it'll be all right
Just remember I love you
All that I can say just remember I love you
Maybe all your blues will fade away

When you need a lover and you're down so low
And you start to wonder but you never know
When it seems like sorrow is your only friend
Knowing that tomorrow you'll feel this way again

When the blues come cryin' at the break of dawn
When the rain keeps fallin' but the rainbow's gone
When you feel like cryin' but the tears won't come
Then your dreams are dyin' when you're on the run

Just remember I love you
And it'll be all right
Just remember I love you
All that I can say just remember I love you
Maybe all your blues will wash away

She likes to sleep with the radio on
So she can dream of her favorite song
The one that no one has ever sung since she was small

She'll never know that she made it up
She had a soul and we ate it up
Thrown away like a paper cup
The music falls

The only flaw in her detailed plan
Is where she wins back the love of her man
Everyone knows that he's never coming back

He took her heart and she took his name
He couldn't stand taking all the blame
He left her only with guilt and shame and then she cracked

Won't it be dull when we rid ourselves
Of all these demons haunting us
To keep us company

In the dream I refuse to have
She falls asleep in a lukewarm bath
We're left to deal with the aftermath again

On behalf of humanity
I will fight for your sanity
How profound such profanity can be

Won't it be dull when we rid ourselves
Of all these demons haunting us
To keep us company

Won't it be odd to be happy like we
Always thought we're supposed to feel
But never seem to be

Near where I live there's a viaduct
Where people jump when they're out of luck
Raining down on the cars and trucks below

They've put a net there to catch their fall
Like That'll stop anyone at all
What they don't know is when nature calls, you go

They say that Jesus and mental health
Are just for those who can help themselves
But what good is that when you live in hell on earth?

From the very fear that makes you want to die
Is just the same as what keeps you alive
It's way more trouble than some suicide is worth

Won't it be dull when we rid ourselves
Of all these demons haunting us
To keep us company

Won't it be odd to be happy like we
Always thought we're supposed to feel
But never seem to be

Hard to admit I fought the war on drugs
My hands were tied and the phone was bugged
Another died and the world just shrugged it off

Dear God
Hope you got the letter and...
I pray you can make it better down here
I don't mean a big reduction in the price of beer
But all the people that you made in your image
See them starving on their feet
Cause they don't get enough to eat
From God
I can't believe in you
Dear God
Sorry to disturb you but...
I feel that I should be hear loud and clear
We all need a big reduction
In the amount of tears
And all the people that you made in your image
See them fighting in the street
Cause they can't make opinions meet about God
I can't believe in you
Did you make disease
and the diamond blue?
Did you make mankind
after we made you?
And the devil too?
Dear God,
Don't know if you noticed but...
Your name is on a lot of quotes in this book
And as crazy humans wrote it
you should take a look
And all the people that you made in your image
Still believeing that junk is true
Well I know it ain't and so do you, dear God
I can't believe in
I don't believe in
I won't believe in heaven and hell
no saints no sinners no devil as well
no pearly gate no thorny crown
you're always letting us humans down
the wars you bring
the babes you drown
those lost at sea and never found
and it's all the same the whole world round
the hurt I see helps to compound
That Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
is just somebody's unholy hoax
And if you're up there you'd perceive
That my heart's here upon my sleeve
If there's one thing I don't believe in...
It's you, dear God.

You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in fields of gold
So she took her love for to gaze awhile
Upon the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of gold

Will you stay with me, will you be my love
Among the fields of barley?
We'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we lie in fields of gold
See the west wind move like a lover so
Upon the fields of barley
Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth
Among the fields of gold

I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I've broken
But I swear in the days still left
We'll walk in fields of gold
We'll walk in fields of gold

Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
Among the fields of gold
You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold

You see the number on the matchbook is old and faded,
She's living in L.A, with my best old ex-friend Ray,
A guy she said she knew well, and sometimes hated.

Isn't that the way they say it goes?
But lets forget all that,
And give me the number if you can find it,
So I can call just to tell her I'm fine,
And to show, I've overcome the blow,
I learned to take it well,
I only wish my words could just convince myself,
That it just wasn't real, but that's not the way it feels.

Set your sights on my corner of time
I hear truth but i just speak the rhyme
Fear knows no one if he hasn't met me
I got to know him well and only now do i see

You can run where you wanna run when you wanna hide
You feel like you are driving but you just took a ride
The truth shall set you free is what i hear them say
And to my sweet surprise it does work out that way

Blame yourself, blame the way you were raised
And if you need to blame, you could blame your own rage
Or you could trust yourself and trust others too
And trust your trust in trust and then they'll trust you
You can run where you wanna run when you wanna hide

You feel like you are driving but you just took a ride
The truth shall set you free is what i hear them say
And to my sweet surprise it does work out that way

A radical concept i know i'm laying down
But try it just once and take one more look around
I spoke not in haste till i said to my fear
"one of us must go, and look, i'm still here"

You can run where you wanna run when you wanna hide
You feel like you are driving but you just took a ride
The truth shall set you free is what i hear them say

Then I can hum a fugue of which I've heard the music's din afore,
And whistle all the airs from that infernal nonsense Pinafore.

ALL:
And whistle all the airs from that infernal nonsense Pinafore.
And whistle all the airs from that infernal nonsense Pinafore.
And whistle all the airs from that infernal nonsense Pinafore.

GENERAL:
Then I can write a washing bill in Babylonic cuneiform,
And tell you ev'ry detail of Caractacus's uniform:
In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral,
I am the very model of a modern Major-General.

ALL:
In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral,
He is the very model of a modern Major-General.

GENERAL:
In fact, when I know what is meant by "mamelon" and "ravelin",
When I can tell at sight a Mauser rifle from a javelin,
When such affairs as sorties and surprises I'm more wary at,
And when I know precisely what is meant by "commissariat",
When I have learnt what progress has been made in modern gunnery,
When I know more of tactics than a novice in a nunnery--
In short, when I've a smattering of elemental strategy,
You'll say a better Major-General has never sat a gee.

ALL:
You'll say a better Major-General has never sat a gee.
You'll say a better Major-General has never sat a gee.
You'll say a better Major-General has never sat a gee.

GENERAL:
For my military knowledge, though I'm plucky and adventury,
Has only been brought down to the beginning of the century;
But still, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral,
I am the very model of a modern Major-General.

ALL:
But still, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral,
He is the very model of a modern Major-General.

I wish I had known this song when I was way younger. Sad, but not angry at the reason for sadness, and not really depressed sounding, jsut matter of fact.

I woudl have made me feel better then, the way it does now, and that would have helped a lot.

I look straight in the window, try not to look below
Pretend I'm not up here, I try counting sheep
The sheep seems to shower of this office tower
It's Nine-point-eight straight down I can't stop my
knees.

I wish I could fly
From this building, from this wall
And if I should try,
would you catch me if I fall?

My hands clench the squeegee, my secular rosary
Hang on to your wallet, hang on to your rings
I Can't look below me, or something might throw me
I Curse at the windstorms that October brings.

I look straight in the boardroom; a modern Pharaoh's tomb
I'd gladly swap places, if they care to dive
They're lined up at the window, peer down into limbo
They're frightened of jumping, in case they survive.

I wish I could step from this scaffold
onto soft green pastures, shopping malls, or bed
With my family and my pastor and my grandfather
who's dead

Look straight in the mirror, watch it come clearer
I look like a painter, behind all the grease
But paintings creating, and I'm just erasing
A crystal-clear canvas is my masterpiece

I wish I could fly
From this building, from this wall
And if I should try,
would you catch me if I fall?

When I fall

As above, so below, place your bets
Which way the head will roll
Made in your image we are at least
As twisted and mean as thee
'Fore your eyes, what a curious site
Your children have turned on you
And you say, you don't sleep well at night
Well, we'll take care of that for you

Belle Marie Antoinette
"Love the pearls!"
They'll make a great tourniquet
Never did as you should and you claim
It was all for our very own good
'Twas a lie, a magnificent lie
Now, your subjects have turned on you
And you claim you had lots on your mind
Well, we'll take care of that for you

Get that damn thing off her neck
I'm the head of the board now I'm bored of her head
Sharpen up the blade boys, what are you waiting for?
Here's where we all get ahead!

Wipe that damn smile off your face
Or we'll lop it off clean with our new guillotine
Sharpen up the blade boys, what are you waiting for?
Here's where we all get ahead!

All my troubles, all my pain
Stems from this thing that you call a "brain"
Be my guest, sever me from the source
Of all my agony
What a shame, I've forgotten my name
Without the use of my brain and
"My, bet I'll sleep well tonight!"
Without this head of mine

Get this damn thing off my neck
I'm the head of the board now I'm bored of my head
Sharpen up the blade boys, what are you waiting for?
Here's where we all get ahead!

Wipe that damn smile off your face
Or we'll lop it off clean with our new guillotine
Sharpen up the blade boys, what are you waiting for?
Bells are now tolling, soon heads will be rolling

Please Sir, for me, Sir,
Won't you see if you see, Sir?
Oh dear, I dread
I seem to have lost my head
I think I left it about
It fell to the ground
And I kicked it around
Has anyone seen, no need to be mean,
My bloody, fat, ugly head?

Please Miss, for me, Sis,
Won't you see if you see, Sis
It's got black hair
And it's kickin' about in the square
I'm really not totally sure but
I think that it might have rolled into the sewer.
Has anyone seen, no need to be mean,
My bloody, fat, ugly head?

Oh oh oh
All we are is dust
Oh oh oh
All we are is dust in the wind

I close my eyes
Only for a moment then the moment's gone
All my dreams
Pass before my eyes a curiosity

Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind

It's the same old song
We're just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do
Just crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see, yeah

Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
(Life's too short brothers and sisters)
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind

Don't hang on
Nothing lasts forever, but the earth and sky
It slips away
And all your money won't another minute buy

Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
(Life's too short brothers and sisters)
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind

Open your eyes, you've aquired quite a bit
Keep your balance, don't you slip
It could all end instantly, as you will see
Time waits for no one, it just moves on

There is a white one
Who can't accept the black one
Who won't accept the yellow one
Who can't accept the white

When will we learn
All we are is dust in the wind
Time for the healing to begin
All we are is dust in the wind
Everything is dust in the wind
Everything is dust in the wind

sits in his 37th floor suite

he allows me to stand and
sollicit graffiti until
he needs the land i stand on
i in my darkened threshold
am pawing through my pockets
the receipts, the bus schedules
urgent napkin poems
and matchbook phone numbers
all of which laundering has rendered
pulpy and strange
loose change and a key
ask me
go ahead, ask me if i care
i got the answer here
i wrote it down somewhere
i just gotta find it
i just gotta find it

somebody and their spraypaint got too close
somebody came on too heavy
now look at me made ugly
by the drooling letters
i was better off alone
ain't that the way it is
they don't know the first thing
but you don't know that
until they take the first swing
my fingers are red and swollen from the cold
i'm getting bold in my old age
so go ahead, try the door
it doesn't matter anymore
i know the weakhearted are strongwilled
and we are being kept alive
until we're killed
he's up there the ice
is clinking in his glass
i don't ask
i just empty my pockets and wait
it's not fate
it's just circumstance
i don't fool myself with romance
i just live
phone number to phone number
dusting them against my thighs
in the warmth of my pockets
which whisper history incessantly
asking me
where were you

i lower my eyes
wishing i could cry more
and care less,
yes it's true,
i was trying to love someone again,
i was caught caring,
bearing weight

but i love this city, this state
this country is too large
and whoever's in charge up there
had better take the elevator down
and put more than change in our cup

Come with me and take my hand
Don't look back just let it end
Walk with me for one more mile
And think this over for awhile
And decide

I've been thinking for some time
Of escaping
More than once it's really crossed my mind
Escaping
There's a little bit further left to go
We're not too fast and we're not too slow
The deadline's ours, we're doing fine
I'm not yours and you're not mine
Please decide

Come see what the madman sees
In escaping
The endless possibilities
Of escaping...I'm escaping

When you try to look around but the walls are closing in
And you've got just enough strength to think of starting again
But you don't have the time you cannot think or hesitate
Because the bus just left and you're seven hours late
And all you can see is the sun going down
In some far away land in some far away town
And all of a sudden you find you just don't care
And you'd give everything you have if you could be over there
And even though you don't know how
But you think you know why
You could be full of shit
But you could give it a real good try
Try...try...please try...try

I see the decision in your eyes
No, it's ok, and I'm not surprised
See just like you, I'm not afraid
Of being scared of the choice you made
So did I

You see nobody said that your life is fair
So you turn around now you know your home's back there
I've got to find out what I can see
I love you and remember me
Please don't cry...don't cry

Just take my hand
Try escaping
Take my hand
Try escaping
Try escaping
Try escaping...

I know how to hurt
I know how to heal
I know what to show
And what to conceal

I know when to talk
And I know when to touch
No one ever died from wanting too much

The world is not enough
But it is such a perfect place to start, my love
And if you're strong enough
Together we can take the world apart, my love

People like us
Know how to survive
There's no point in living
If you can't feel alive

We know when to kiss
And we know when to kill
If we can't have it all
Then nobody will

The world is not enough
But it is such a perfect place to start, my love
And if you're strong enough
Together we can take the world apart, my love

I feel safe
I feel scared
I feel ready
- And yet unprepared

The world is not enough
But it is such a perfect place to start, my love
And if you're strong enough
Together we can take the world apart, my love

The world is not enough
The world is not enough
Nowhere near enough

So open up your morning light,
And say a little prayer for right.
You know that if we are to stay alive.
Then see the peace in every eye.

She had two babies. One was six months, one was three
In the war of '44.
Every telephone ring, every heartbeat stinging
When she thought it was God calling her.
Oh would her son grow to know his father?

I don't want to to wait for our lives to be over,
I want to know right now what will it be.
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over,
Will it be yes or will it be sorry?

He showed up all wet on the rainy front step.
Wearing shrapnel in his skin.
And the war he saw lives inside him still,
It's so hard to be gentle and warm.
The years pass by and now he has granddaughters

I don't want to to wait for our lives to be over,
I want to know right now what will it be.
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over,
Will it be yes or will it be sorry?

You look at me from across the room
You're wearing your anguish again
Believe me I know the feeling
It sucks you into the jaws of anger.
So breathe a little more deeply my love
All we have is this very moment
And I don't want to do what his father,
and his father, and his father did,
I want to be here now.

So open up your morning light,
And say a little prayer for Right
You know that if we are to stay alive,
Then see the love in every eye.

And they’re stringing the lights around you,
Hanging paper angels,
Painting little devils on the roof.

Oh, the furnace wind,
Is a flickering of wings about your face,
In a cloud of incense,
Yeah, it smells like Heaven in this place.

I can’t eat, can’t sleep,
Still, I hunger for you when you look at me,
That face, those eyes,
All the sinful pleasures deep inside.

Tell me how, you know now, the ways and means of getting in,
Underneath my skin,
Oh you were always my original sin,
And tell me why, I shudder inside, every time we begin,
This dangerous game,
Oh, you were always my original sin.

A dream will fly,
The moment that you open up your eyes,
A dream is just a riddle,
Ghosts from every corner of your life.

Up in the balcony,
All the Romeo’s are bleeding for your hand,
Blowing theater kisses,
Reciting lines they don’t understand.

I can’t eat, can’t sleep,
Still I hunger for you when you look at me,
That face, those eyes,
All the sinful pleasures deep inside.

Misery likes company, I like the way that sounds,
I've been trying to find the meaning, so I can write it down,
Staring out the window, it's such a long way down,
I'd like to jump, but I'm afraid to hit the ground.

I can't write a love song, the way I feel today,
I can't sing no song of hope, I got nothing to say,
Life is feeling kind of strange, since you went away,
I sing this song to wherever you are,
As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms.

I'm tired of watching TV, it makes me want to scream,
Outside the world is burning, man it's so hard to believe,
Each day you know you're dying, from the cradle to the grave,
I get so numb sometimes, that I can't feel the pain.

I can't write a love song, the way I feel today,
I can't sing no song of hope, I got nothing to say,
Life is feeling kind of strange, since you went away,
I sing this song to wherever you are,
As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms.

Staring at the paper, I don't know what to write,
I'll have my last cigarette-well, turn out the lights,
Maybe tomorrow, I'll feel a different way,
But here is my delusion, I don't know what to say.

I can't write a love song, the way I feel today,
I can't sing no song of hope, I got nothing to say,
And I can't fight the feelings, that are burning in my veins,
I send this song to wherever you are,
As my guitar lies bleeding.

I can't write a love song, the way I feel today,
I can't sing no song of hope, there's no one left to save,
And I can't fight the feelings, buried in my brains,
I send this song to wherever you are,
As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms,
As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms,
As my guitar lies bleeding in my arms.

Through the corridors of sleep
Past shadows dark and deep
my mind dances and leaps in confusion
I don’t know what is real
I can’t touch what I feel
And I hide behind the shield of my illusion

So I’ll continue to continue to pretend
my life will never end
and flowers never bend
with the rainfall

The mirror on my wall
cast an image dark and small
but I’m not sure at all it’s my reflection
I’m blinded by the light
of God, and truth and right
and I wander in the night without direction

So I’ll continue to continue to pretend
my life will never end
and flowers never bend
with the rainfall

(It’s) no matter if you’re born
to play the king or pawn
for the line is thinly drawn ‘tween joy and sorrow
so my fantasy
becomes reality
and I must be, what I must be, and face tomorrow

So I’ll continue to continue to pretend
my life will never end
and flowers never bend
with the rainfall

Like the time we made the baseball team
and they still laughed at us.
Like the time that girl broke up with me
because I wasn't cool enough (TRICK).

THAaaANKS THAaaANKS... HERE WE GO!

The little things, the litte things
they always hang around.
The little things, little things
they try to break me down.
The little things, little things
they just won't go away.
The little things, little things
make who i am today!
You wan to hate me now
but won't stop now,
because I can't stop now.


Like the time mom went to that institute,
because she was breaking down.
Like the car we had that wouldn't start,
we had to walk to get around.
And that same year on christmas eve,
dad went to the store.
We checked his room.
His things were gone.
We didn't see him no more.

THAaaANKS THAaaNKS... HERE WE GO!

Forfeit the game, before somebody else
Takes you out of the frame, puts your name to shame
Cover up your face, you can’t run the race
The pace is too fast, you just won’t last

You love the way I look at you
While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through
You take away if I give in
My life, my pride is broken

You like to think you’re never wrong
(You live what you learn)
You have to act like you’re someone
(You live what you learn)
You want someone to hurt like you
(You live what you learn)
You want to share what you’ve been through
(You live what you learn)

You love the things I say I’ll do
The way I’ll hurt myself again just to get back at you
You take away when I give in
My life, my pride is broken

You like to think you’re never wrong
(You live what you learn)
You have to act like you’re someone

You want someone to hurt like you

And they wandered in,
From the city of St. John,
Without a dime.
Wearing coats that shined,
Both red and green,
Colors from their sunny island.
From their boats of iron,
They looked upon the promised land,
Where surely life was sweet.
On the rising tide,
To New York City,
Did they ride into the street.

See the glory,
Of the royal scam.

They are hounded down,
To the bottom of a bad town,
Amid the ruins.
Where they learn to fear,
An angry race of fallen kings,
Their dark companions.
While the memory of,
Their southern sky was clouded by,
A savage winter.
Every patron saint,
Hung on the wall, shared the room,
With twenty sinners.

See the glory,
Of the royal scam.

By the blackened wall,
He does it all.
He thinks he's died and gone to heaven.
Now the tale is told,
By the old man back home,
He reads the letter,
How they are paid in gold,
Just to babble in the back room,
All night and waste their time .
And they wandered in,
From the city of St. John without a dime.

See the glory,
Of the royal scam.

"I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know were it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of broken dreams
Were the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone
I walk alone I walk alone
I walk alone and I walk a-

My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Till then I'll walk alone

Ah..ah..

I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line of the edge
And where I walk alone
Read between the lines
What's fucked up and everything's alright
Check my vital signs to know I'm still alive
And I walk alone
I walk alone I walk alone
I walk alone and I walk a-

My shadows the only one that walks beside me

'Till then I'll walk alone"


I count the headlights on the highway spinning 'round
Until the sparkle blurs my eyes
I want to run until I break the speed of sound
So I can't hear the voice inside, where it hides

Where can I look to find the strength to try again?
Who knows a place I can call home?
How can I face a world that's so quick to condemn
A soul that isn't like their own, all alone

Where do we go from here? Running from pain and fear
Where do we go from - here we are, changed forever, always together

Whatever may happen, wherever you go
I will always be with you and you won't walk alone
If ever I stumble, whenever I call, you will be there to catch my fall

You said that you would walk beside me close at hand
You said that love would be my guard
One set of footprints stretched behind me in the sand
You must have carried me this far, and for so long

Where do we go from here? Running from pain and fear
Where do we go from - here we are, changed forever, always together

Whatever may happen, wherever you go
I will always be with you and you won't walk alone
If ever I stumble, whenever I call, you will be there to catch my fall

Road goes on, for so long, we are on our own, but we're not alone
Someone will catch my fall

Where do we go from here? Running from pain and fear

I will always be with you and you won't walk alone
If ever I stumble, whenever I call, you will be there to catch my fall

Whatever may happen, wherever you go
I will always be with you and you won't walk alone
Into every lifetime a little rain will fall
You will be there to catch my fall

Whatever may happen, wherever you go

Come you masters of war
You that build all the guns
You that build the death planes
You that build the big bombs
You that hide behind walls
You that hide behind desks
I just want you to know
I can see through your masks

You that never done nothin'
But build to destroy
You play with my world
Like it's your little toy
You put a gun in my hand
And you hide from my eyes
And you turn and run farther
When the fast bullets fly

Like Judas of old
You lie and deceive
A world war can be won
You want me to believe
But I see through your eyes
And I see through your brain
Like I see through the water
That runs down my drain

You fasten the triggers
For the others to fire
Then you set back and watch
When the death count gets higher
You hide in your mansion
As young people's blood
Flows out of their bodies
And is buried in the mud

You've thrown the worst fear
That can ever be hurled
Fear to bring children
Into the world
For threatening my baby
Unborn and unnamed
You ain't worth the blood
That runs in your veins

How much do I know
To talk out of turn
You might say that I'm young
You might say I'm unlearned
But there's one thing I know
Though I'm younger than you
Even Jesus would never
Forgive what you do

Let me ask you one question
Is your money that good
Will it buy you forgiveness
Do you think that it could
I think you will find
When your death takes its toll
All the money you made
Will never buy back your soul

And I hope that you die
And your death'll come soon
I will follow your casket
In the pale afternoon
And I'll watch while you're lowered
Down to your deathbed
And I'll stand o'er your grave
'Til I'm sure that you're dead.

Oh let’s bomb the factory
That makes all the wannabes
Let’s burst all the bubbles
That brainwash the masses

As far as I can tell
It doesn't matter who you are
If you can believe there’s something worth fighting for
The color of an eye
The glory of a sudden view
The baby in your arms
The smile he always shoots at you

Believing in nothing
Makes life so boring
So let’s pray for something
To feel good in the morning

As far as I can tell
It doesn't matter who you are

The color of an eye

KABOOM
Get it right
Get it right now
Get it right
Do it good
Get it right now

KABOOM
Get it right

Oh doctor we're dying
There’s no use in crying
So live for tomorrow
And do what you have to

You spend all your time waiting for that second chance
For a break that would make it OK
There's always some reason to feel not good enough
And it's hard at the end of the day

I need some distraction, oh, beautiful release
Memory seep from my veins
Let me be empty, oh, and weightless
And maybe I'll find some peace tonight

In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear

You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here

You're so tired of the straight line, and everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back
The storm keeps on twisting, you keep on building the lies
That you make up for all that you lack

It don't make no difference
Escaping one last time, it's easier to believe
In this sweet madness, oh, this glorious sadness
That brings me to my knees

In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear

Oh, you are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here

In the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here

Pale and dark, and tortured, blue
Behind a veil, you find serenity
I guess that's soemthing we share.
Violently fading into nothing,
To find peace, or escape it.

Curious majestic black strands cover you entirely
Yet I remain there
Always being tested
In an eternal game that must leave your soul in shreds
As it does mine,
You have my sympathy.

But forget about everything just for tonight
For this moment in life,
This moment in time
Could be your first,
Or your last

You abandoned hope long ago,
You abandoned love,
Or it abandoned you

But now is a time for beauty,
Violent beauty,
So pure it's scary.
The past is over,
This is something new

All together alien, exotic, and welcome
Erasing what came before,
Wth a blink of her amazing eyes.

I love it when a song speaks to you, ya know?
---

Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, where have you been, my darling young one?

I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains,
I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways,
I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests,
I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans,
I've been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard,

And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, and it's a hard,

And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Oh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what did you see, my darling young one?

I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it,
I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin',
I saw a room full of men with their hammers a-bleedin',
I saw a white ladder all covered with water,
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken,
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children,

And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

And what did you hear, my blue-eyed son?
And what did you hear, my darling young one?

I heard the sound of a thunder, it roared out a warnin',
Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world,
Heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a-blazin',
Heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin',
Heard one person starve, I heard many people laughin',
Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter,
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley,

And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Oh, who did you meet, my blue-eyed son?
Who did you meet, my darling young one?

I met a young child beside a dead pony,
I met a white man who walked a black dog,
I met a young woman whose body was burning,
I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow,
I met one man who was wounded in love,
I met another man who was wounded with hatred,

And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Oh, what'll you do now, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what'll you do now, my darling young one?

I'm a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-fallin',
I'll walk to the depths of the deepest black forest,
Where the people are many and their hands are all empty,
Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters,
Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison,
Where the executioner's face is always well hidden,
Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten,
Where black is the color, where none is the number,
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it,
And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it,
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',
But I'll know my song well before I start singin',

And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Speaking to you is wonderful...getting caught in your head is bad.

The Devil started dancin',
He was entrancin',
When he did the "Jangle" his own way,
His bones were rattlin' loudly,
As he began to shuffle proudly,
That's the way that Satan takes a holiday.

The music wasn't good,
But it was plenty spooky,
That's the way he likes it, night and day,
The gentleman prefers to listen,
To aggravatin' rhythm,
That's the way Satan takes a holiday.

Watch out, He's comin' out,
And then you'll shout, unless you're good, knock wood.
He's really rather goofy tryin' to be spooky,
But he has to do it day by day,
His job is not allurin' never-the-less quite endurin',
Maybe that's why Satan takes a holiday.

That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.

T'was Grace that taught...
my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear...
the hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares...
we have already come.
T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far...
and Grace will lead us home.

The Lord has promised good to me...
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be...
as long as life endures.

When we've been here ten thousand years...
bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise...
then when we've first begun.

That saved a wretch like me....

Walking thru the streets of Soho in the rain
He was looking for the place called Lee Ho Fook's
Going to get himself a big dish of beef chow mein
Hi ho, the werewolves of London

If you hear his howling around the kitchen door
You better not let him in
Little old lady got mutilated last nite
Werewolves of London again
Hi ho, werewolves of London

He's the hairy-handed gent who ran amuck in Kent
Lately he's been overheard in Mayfair
You better stay away from him, he'll rip your lungs out Jim
I'd like to meet his tailor
Hi ho, werewolves of London

Well, I saw Lon Cheney walking with the Queen
Doing the werewolves of London

And his hair was perfect

Of each regret and each mistake
Every choice you'll fail to make

Everything I've yet to break is surely bending
Every vow I ever take is just pretending

There’s no time for us
There’s no place for us
What is this thing that builds our dreams yet slips away
From us

Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever....?

There’s no chance for us
It’s all decided for us
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us

Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever?

Who dares to love forever?
When love must die

But touch my tears with your lips
Touch my world with your fingertips
And we can have forever
And we can love forever
Forever is our today
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever?
Forever is our today

Who waits forever anyway?

You and me and a bottle of wine
Going to hold you tonight

Well we know I'm going away
And how I wish...wish it weren't so
So take this wine and drink with me
Let's delay our misery

Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I'll be gone

There's a log on the fire
And it burns like me for you
Tomorrow comes with one desire
To take me away...it's true

It ain't easy to say goodbye
Darling please don't start to cry
'cause you know I've got to go
Lord I wish it wasn't so

Save tonight
And fight the break of dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I'll be gone

Ok since Christmas is looming, here's a little something for the season of goodwill....

Grins and sips from a shot glass and starts singing

It was christmas eve babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me, won’t see another one
And then he sang a song
The rare old mountain dew
I turned my face away
And dreamed about you

Got on a lucky one
Came in eighteen to one
I’ve got a feeling
This year’s for me and you
So happy christmas
I love you baby
I can see a better time
When all our dreams come true

They’ve got cars big as bars
They’ve got rivers of gold
But the wind goes right through you
It’s no place for the old
When you first took my hand
On a cold christmas eve
You promised me
Broadway was waiting for me

You were handsome
You were pretty
Queen of new york city
When the band finished playing
They howled out for more
Sinatra was swinging,
All the drunks they were singing
We kissed on a corner
Then danced through the night

The boys of the nypd choir
Were singing galway bay
And the bells were ringing out
For christmas day

You’re a bum
You’re a punk
You’re an old slut on junk
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
You scumbag, you maggot
You cheap lousy faggot
Happy christmas your arse
I pray God it’s our last

The boys of the nypd choir
Were singing galway bay
And the bells were ringing out
For christmas day

I could have been someone
Well so could anyone
You took my dreams from me
When I first found you
I kept them with me babe
I put them with my own
Can’t make it all alone
I’ve built my dreams around you

The boys of the nypd choir
Were singing galway bay
And the bells were ringing out
For christmas day

December days pass my way
Dawn meets dusk when I wake up

Snowy streets under my feet
the street lamp’s glow
is the only sun I know

I don’t even recall
the smell of summer
pictures on my wall won’t bring me
that smell of summer


December days I’m betrayed
Santa Claus never came

I was so good
But I never really understood

I don’t even recall
the smell of summer
pictures on my wall won’t bring me
that smell of summer

"Tonight, I feel like the smartest man alive." -Remedy=Chill

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
I'm just out to find
The better part of me

I'm more than a bird
I'm more than a plane
I'm more than some pretty face beside a train
And it's not easy to be me

I wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
'Bout a home I'll never see

It may sound absurd
But don't be naive
Even heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed
But won't you concede
Even heroes have the right to dream
And it's not easy to be me

Up, up and away, away from me
Well it's alright
You can all sleep sound tonight
I'm not crazy or anything

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
Men weren't meant to ride
With clouds between their knees

I'm only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
I'm only a man in a phoney red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me, inside of me
Inside of me, yeah inside of me, inside of me

I'm only a man in a phoney red sheet
I'm only a man looking for a dream
I'm only a man in a phoney red sheet
And it's not easy…
It's not easy to be me

From the rainy streets of Florida,

Merry X-Men... um ... Mass... I mean, uh.. everyone.

They said there'll be snow at Christmas.
They said there'll be peace on Earth.

But instead it just kept on raining...
A veil of tears for the Virgin's birth.

I remember one Christmas morning
A winters light and a distant choir.

And the peal of a bell and that Christmas Tree smell...
And their eyes full of tinsel and fire.

They sold me a dream of Christmas
They sold me a Silent Night
And they told me a fairy story
'Till I believed in the Israelite.

And I believed in Father Christmas
And I looked at the sky with excited eyes
'Till I woke with a yawn in the first light of dawn
And I saw him and through his disguise

I wish you a hopeful Christmas
I wish you a brave New Year
All anguish pain and sadness
Leave your heart and let your road be clear.

They said there'll be snow at Christmas
They said there'll be peace on Earth
Hallelujah Noel be it Heaven or Hell
This Christmas you get, you deserve.

<guitars begin to rock>

When I was small I believed in santa clause
Though I knew it was my dad
And I would hang up my stocking at christmas
Open my presents and I’d be glad

But the last time I played father christmas
I stood outside a department store
A gang of kids came over and mugged me
And knocked my reindeer to the floor

They said:
Father christmas, give us some money
Don’t mess around with those silly toys.
We’ll beat you up if you don’t hand it over
We want your bread so don’t make us annoyed
Give all the toys ... to the little rich boys

Don’t give my brother a steve austin outfit
Don’t give my sister a cuddly toy
We don’t want a jigsaw or monopoly money
We only want the real mccoy

Father christmas, give us some money
We’ll beat you up if you make us annoyed
Father christmas, give us some money
Don’t mess around with those silly toys

But give my daddy a job ’cause he needs one
He’s got lots of mouths to feed
But if you’ve got one, I’ll have a machine gun
So I can scare all the kids down the street

Father christmas, give us some money
We got no time for your silly toys
We’ll beat you up if you don’t hand it over
Give all the toys ... to the little rich boys

Have yourself a merry merry christmas
Have yourself a good time
But remember the kids who got nothin’
While you’re drinkin’ down your wine

Father christmas, give us some money
We got no time for your silly toys
We’ll beat you up if you don’t hand it over
We want your bread, so don’t make us annoyed
Give all the toys ... to the little rich boys!!!

Down on the other side of things
The triggers fast and light
Bringing home this emptiness
For which you had to fight
It doesn't matter if you're giving
For they do not compromise
The world will keep you guessing
Until the day you die

And everyone will say "I told you so"
Yeah they'll all just nod and sigh
But I'll make a run at something real
And they'll never even try

And everyone will say "I told you so"
Yeah they'll all just nod and sigh
As I go down in a ball of flames
They'll just watch, I wonder why

When the people downtown are freezing
Sometimes you cannot hide
So what can you do its often true
Then we shift away our eyes
But maybe that moments ours to live
And maybe that's what we were for
As fate will share a chance with you
To open up your door

And everyone will say "I told you so"
Yeah they'll all just nod and sigh
But I'll make a run at something real
And they'll never even try

And everyone will say "I told you so"
Yeah they'll all just nod and sigh
As I go down in a ball of flames
They'll just watch, i wonder why

Why you're just standing there

Dedicated. 'Nough Said.

In the sharp gust of love
My memory stirred
When time wreathed a rose
A garland of shame
It's thorn my only delight
War-torn, afraid to speak
We dare to breathe

Majestic
Imperial
A bridge of sighs
Solitude sails
In a wave of forgiveness
On angels' wings

Reach out your hands
Don't turn your back
Don't walk away

How in the world
Can I wish for this?
Never to be torn apart
Close to you
'Til the last beat
Of my heart

At the close of day
The sunset cloaks
These words in shadowplay
Here and now, long and loud
My heart cries out
And the naked bone of an echo says
Don't walk away

Reach out your hands
I'm just a step away

How in the world
Can I wish for this?
Never to be torn apart
Close to you
'Til the last beat
Of my heart

How in the world
Can I wish for this?
Never to be torn apart
'Til the last beat
'Til the last fleeting beat
Of my heart

I wanna hold you high

Because I'm broken

You've gone away

The worst is over now

Thursday's crush is a Friday night rush
And a Monday morning cry
It's the tail that you keep chasing
And it gets away every time

New Years Eve and it's hard to believe
Another Zodiac's gone around
While you drank yourself high on hoping
And watched the ceiling spin from the ground

Counting down from ten it's time
To make your annual prayer
Secret Santa in the sky
When will I get my share

Then you tell yourself
What you want to hear
Cause you have to believe
This will be my year

Pound your fist and cross it off your list
But you know you're not that strong
When the man at the stop light catches you
Singing along to a brand new song

Well maybe it's
Trash or the overnight smash that brings a
Ship crashing through your wall
So you can make your grand departure
From a world getting way too small

One wheel in the ditch another
Spinning in the air
Put your pedal down to the floorboards but you're not
Getting anywhere

Then you tell yourself
What you want to hear
Cause you have to believe
This will be my year

Starving for truth
I'm closer to where I started
I'm chasing after you
I'm falling even more in love with you
Letting go of all I've held onto
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you

Forgetting all I'm lacking
Completely incomplete
I'll take your invitation
You take all of me

Now I'm falling even more in love with you
Letting go of all I've held onto
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you
I'm living for the only thing I know
I'm running and I'm not quite sure where to go
And I don't know what I'm diving into
Just hanging by a moment here with you

There's nothing else to lose
There's nothing else to find
There's nothing in the world
That could change my mind
There is nothing else
There is nothing else

Losing sleep over this
No I can't
And now I cannot stop pacing
Give me a few hours
I'll have this all sorted out
If my mind would just stop racing

Cause I cannot stand still
I can be this unsturdy
This cannot be happening

This is over my head
But underneath my feet
Cause by tomorrow morning I'll have this thing beat
And everything will be back to the way that it was
I wish that it was just that easy

Cause I'm waiting for tonight
Been waiting for tomorrow
I'm somewhere in between
What is real
Just a dream
What is real
Just a dream
What is real
Just a dream

Would you catch me if I fall out of what I fell in
Dont be surprised if I collapse down at your feet again
I don't want to run away from this
I know that I just don't need this

Cause I cannot stand still
I can be this unsturdy
This cannot be happening

Let your warm hands break right through

So lately, been wondering,
Who will be there to take my place
When I'm gone, you'll need love
To light the shadows on your face
If a great wave shall fall
It would fall upon us all
and between the sand and stone
Could you make it on your own

If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high, or down low
I'll go wherever you will go

And maybe, I'll find out
The way to make it back someday
To watch you, to guide you
Through the darkest of your days
If a great wave shall fall
It would fall upon us all
Well then I hope there's someone out there
Who can bring me back to you

If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high, or down low
I'll go wherever you will go

Runaway with my heart
Runaway with my hope
Runaway with my love

I know now, just quite how
My life and love might still go on
In your heart, in your mind
I'll stay with you for all of time

If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high, or down low
I'll go wherever you will go

If I could turn back time
I'll go wherever you will go
If I could make you mine
I'll go wherever you will go
I'll go wherever you will go

And some songs from childhood are actually worth remembering!

From "An American Tale"

Somewhere out there
Beneath the pale moonlight
Someone's thinkin' of me
And loving me tonight
Somewhere out there
Someone's saying a prayer
That we'll find one another
In that big somewhere out there

And, even though I know
How very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishin'
On the same bright star
And, when the night wind starts to sing
A lonesome lullaby
It helps to think we're sleeping
Underneath the same big sky

Somewhere out there
If love can see us through
Then we'll be together
Somewhere out there
Out where dreams come true

And, even though I know
How very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishin'
On the same bright star
And, when the night wind starts to sing
A lonesome lullaby
It helps to think we're sleeping
Underneath the same big sky

Somewhere out there
If love can see us through (love can see us through)Then we'll be together
Somewhere out there
Out where dreams come true

Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a blowtorch burning
I was a key that could use a little running

So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep

It seems no one can help me now
I'm in too deep there's no way out
This time I have really
led myself astray

Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a oneway track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there

Can you help me remember how to smile
Make it somehow all seems worth while?
How on earth did I get so jaded?
Life's mystery seems so dated

I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
Here I am just drownin' in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train

Everything is cut and dry
Day and night
earth and sky
Somehow I just don't believe it

Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a oneway track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there

Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughin' at the rain
A little out of touch
little insane
It's just easier than dealing with the pain

Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a oneway track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there

Runaway train never comin' back
Runaway train tearin' up the track
Runaway train burnin' in my veins
Runaway
but it always seems the same

Your words to me just a whisper
Your face is so unclear
I try to pay attention
Your words just disappear

'Cause its always raining in my head
Forget all the things I should have said

So I speak to you in riddles because
My words get in my way. I smoke the
whole thing to my head and feel it
wash away 'cause i can't take anymore
of this, I want to come apart.
or dig myself a little hole inside
your precious heart

'Cause its always raining in my head
Forget all the things I should have said

I am nothing more than a little boy inside
That cries out for attention
yet I always try to hide
'Cause I talk to you like children,
Though I don't know how I feel
But I know I'll do the right thing
If the right thing is revealed

'Cause its always raining in my head
Forget all the things I should have said

I knew much more then than I do now

Neon heart, day-glow eyes
The city lit by fireflies
They're advertising in the skies
And people like us

And I miss you when you're not around
I'm getting ready to leave the ground

Oh you look so beautiful tonight...

Don't think before you laugh
Look ugly in a photograph
Flash bulbs, purple irises the camera can't see

I've seen you walk unafraid
I've seen you in the clothes you've made
Can you see the beauty inside of me?
What happened to the beauty I had inside of me?

And I miss you when you're not around
I'm getting ready to leave the ground

Oh you look so beautiful tonight...tonight
In the city of blinding lights

Time...time....time...won't leave me as I am

Speak To Me

You are the light
That's leading me
To the place where I find peace again.

You are the strength, that keeps me walking.
You are the hope, that keeps me trusting.
You are the light to my soul.
You are my purpose...you're everything.

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

You calm the storms, and you give me rest.
You hold me in your hands, you won't let me fall.
You steal my heart, and you take my breath away.
Would you take me in? Take me deeper now?

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

This song is always playing when I'm onthe computer. I don't know how it manages to do that, but it does.

Falling downward, your face I see
Falling downward, you can see me
In this madness I reach out for your hand
Two souls in union, spiralling to the ground
Child of Morpheus
Take me to your sweet euphoria
Child of Morpheus
Hold me in my dreams
Tranquil angel
Falling with no fear of landing
Child of Morpheus
Close my eyes for me
I’ve touched your beauty, tasted your poison brew
You’ve held me closer than any man could do
Now come, sweet Morpheus, there’s lands we’ve yet to see
Unfold your comforting arms, and we’ll fall endlessly
How I love you, Morpheus, my soul has ached for you
You gave me comfort while life was so cruel
Your time is precious, I’ll waste not what you share
Let’s fall again now, as far as we would dare

Don’t look don’t look the shadows breathe
Whispering me away from you
Don’t wake at night to watch her sleep
You know that you will always lose
This trembling
Adored
Tousled bird mad girl...
But every night I burn
But every night I call your name
Every night I burn
Every night I fall again
Oh don’t talk of love the shadows purr
Murmuring me away from you
Don’t talk of worlds that never were
The end is all that’s ever true
There’s nothing you can ever say
Nothing you can ever do...
Still every night I burn
Every night I scream your name
Every night I burn
Every night the dream’s the same
Every night I burn
Waiting for my only friend
Every night I burn
Waiting for the world to end

Just paint your face the shadows smile
Slipping me away from you
Oh it doesn’t matter how you hide
Find you if we’re wanting to
So slide back down and close your eyes
Sleep a while
You must be tired...
But every night I burn
Every night I call your name
Every night I burn
Every night I fall again
Every night I burn
Scream the animal scream
Every night I burn
Dream the crow black dream

Dream the crow black dream...

Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends

like my fathers come to pass
seven years has gone so fast
wake me up when september ends

here comes the rain again
falling from the stars
drenched in my pain again
becoming who we are

as my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
wake me up when september ends

summer has come and passed
the innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends

ring out the bells again
like we did when spring began
wake me up when september ends

here comes the rain again
falling from the stars
drenched in my pain again
becoming who we are

as my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
wake me up when september ends

Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends

like my father's come to pass
twenty years has gone so fast
wake me up when september ends
wake me up when september ends
wake me up when september ends

All our times have come
Here but now they're gone
Seasons don't fear the reaper
Nor do the wind the sun or the rain (we can be like they are)
Come on baby (don't fear the reaper)
Baby take my hand (don't fear the reaper)
We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper)
Baby I'm your man
La-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la

Valentine is done
Here but now they're gone
Romeo and Juliet
Are together in eternity (Romeo and Juliet)
40,000 men and women everyday (like Romeo and Juliet)
40,000 men and women everyday (redefine happiness)
Another 40,000 coming everyday (we can be like they are)
Come on baby (don't fear the reaper)
Baby take my hand (don't fear the reaper)
We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper)
Baby I'm your man
La-la-la-la-la la-la-la-la-la

Love of two is one
Here but now they're gone
Came the last night of sadness
And it was clear she couldn't go on
Then the door was open and the wind appeared
The candles blew then disappeared
The curtains flew then he appeared (saying don't be afraid)
Come on baby (and she had no fear)
And she ran to him (then they started to fly)
They looked backward and said goodbye (she had become like they are)
She had taken his hand (she had become like they are)
Come on baby (don't fear the reaper)

Bated breath and rubber gloves

Be my romeo
My go-go go Romeo
I see you twist and turn
You look so mating stupid

I feel just like a local god when I'm with the boys
We do what we want
Yes, we do what we want

Summer days can lead to the bad times
The world gets larger everyday
Yeah, yeah, the summer days can lead to the bad blood
It gets me feeling stupid, happy and numb

There's a grief that can't be spoken.
There's a pain goes on and on.
Empty chairs at empty tables
Now my friends are dead and gone.

Here they talked of revolution.
Here it was they lit the flame.
Here they sang about `tomorrow'
And tomorrow never came.

From the table in the corner
They could see a world reborn
And they rose with voices ringing
I can hear them now!
The very words that they had sung
Became their last communion
On the lonely barricade at dawn.

Oh my friends, my friends forgive me
That I live and you are gone.
There's a grief that can't be spoken.
There's a pain goes on and on.

Phantom faces at the window.
Phantom shadows on the floor.
Empty chairs at empty tables
Where my friends will meet no more.

Oh my friends, my friends, don't ask me
What your sacrifice was for
Empty chairs at empty tables
Where my friends will sing no more.

Dressed up for a big date
Like Halloween day but it was Fourth of July now
A car crash with a suitcase and a painted face
She was one of a kind
She wears a plastic crown like Cinderella
And roller skates in bed

Crash rides the greyhound from his hometown
When he comes around 'cause they don't let him drive now
Mixed up as a milkshake
But make no mistake
They're shooting for the stars

You and me
We're invincible together
We can be so tragical, whatever
Dressed up just like ziggy but he couldn't play guitar
Captain Crash and the beauty queen from mars

Share a toothpick, trading lipstick
Watching traffic for days at the diner
Holding hands, making big plans
Playing Superman, he was wearing eyeliner
Another local legend and his longtime lucky charm

You and me
We're invincible together
We can be so tragical, whatever
Dressed up just like ziggy but he couldn't play guitar
Captain Crash and the beauty queen from mars

They're drunk on love as you can get
Getting high on lust and cigarettes
Living life with no regrets
At least they're gonna try to fly

You and me
We're invincible together
We can be so tragical, whatever
We're Sid and Nancy
Fred and Ginger
Clyde and Bonnie
Liz and Richard
Kurt and Courtney
Bacall and Bogie
Joltin' Joe and Ms. Monroe
Here's captain crash and the beauty queen from mars

When I look into your eyes,
I can see a love restrained.
But darlin' when I hold you,
Don't you know I feel the same?

'Cause nothin' lasts forever,
And we both know hearts can change.
And it's hard to hold a candle,
In the cold November rain.

We've been through this such a long long time,
Just tryin' to kill the pain.
But lovers always come, and lovers always go,
An' no one's really sure who's lettin' go today.
Walking away....

If we could take the time to lay it on the line,
I could rest my head,
Just knowin' that you were mine.
All mine....

So, if you want to love me,
Then darlin' don't refrain.
Or I'll just end up walkin',
In the cold November rain.

Do you need some time...on your own?
Do you need some time...all alone?
Everybody needs some time...on their own,
Don't you know you need some time...all alone.

I know it's hard to keep an open heart,
When even friends seem out to harm you.
But if you could heal a broken heart,
Wouldn't time be out to charm you?

Sometimes I need some time...on my own.
Sometimes I need some time...all alone.
Everybody needs some time...on their own.
Don't you know you need some time...all alone.

And when your fears subside,
And shadows still remain,
I know that you can love me,
When there's no one left to blame.

So never mind the darkness,
We still can find a way.
'Cause nothin' lasts forever,
Even cold November rain.

Don't ya think that you need somebody?
Don't ya think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody...
You're not the only one,
You're not the only one.

Thursday, I don't care about you
It's Friday, I'm in love

Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart
Thursday doesn't even start
It's Friday, I'm in love

Saturday, wait
Sunday always comes too late
But Friday never hesitates

I don't care if Monday's black
Tuesday, Wednesday heart attack
Thursday, never looking back
It's Friday, I'm in love

Monday you can hold your head
Tuesday, Wednesday stay in bed
Oh Thursday watch the walls instead
It's Friday, I'm in love

Saturday, wait
Sunday always comes too late
But Friday never hesitates

Dressed up to the eyes
It's a wonderful surprise
To see your shoes and your spirits rise
Throwing out your frown
And just smiling at the sound
As sleek as a shriek
Spinning round and round
Always take a big bite
It's such a gorgeous sight
To see you eat in the middle of the night
You can never get enough
Enough of this stuff
It's Friday, I'm in love

I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's grey and Wednesday too

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a new born baby it just happens ev'ry day

I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facin' up when your whole world is black

No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you

If I look hard enough into the settin' sun
My love will laugh with me before the mornin' comes

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

Hmm, hmm, hmm,...

I wanna see it painted, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black

Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now?
You got someone to blame
You say

One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for it

Did I disappoint you?
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's

Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other
One

Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus?
To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much?
More than a lot.
You gave me nothing,
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
Well we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other

One

One

No New Year's day to celebrate
No chocolate covered candy hearts to give away
No first of springNo song to sing
In fact here's just another ordinary day

No April rain
No flowers bloom
No wedding Saturday within the month of June
But what it is, is something true
Made up of these three words that I must say to you

I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart

No summer's high
No warm July
No harvest moon to light one tender August night
No autumn breeze
No falling leaves
Not even time for birds to fly to southern skies

No Libra sun
No Halloween
No giving thanks to all the Christmas joy you bring
But what it is, though old so new
To fill your heart like no three words could ever do

I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart

I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care, I do
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart
Of my heart,...... of my heart

I've known you all my life
At least that's how it seems
Never known a better way
Of living out a dream
And now I find
Your leaving me
And I'll never understand
Before I let you walk away
I have one last demand

Tell me a lie
And say that you won't go
Look in my eye
And hold me even though
I realize you have to walk away
No more yesterdays

You always were my angel
Flying high above
Always looking out for me
Angel that I love
And no our dreams are fading
Like age old photographs
Hurts too much to look at now
Reminds us of our past

Tell me a lie
And say that you won't go
Look in my eye
And hold me even though
I realize you have to walk away
No more yesterdays

Maybe we would stay together
Maybe it woul dbe forever
Maybe if you just told me a lie
Maybe we would never say goodbye

She sits in her corner
Singing herself to sleep
Wrapped in all of the promises
That no one seems to keep
She no longer cries to herself
No tears left to wash away
Just diaries of empty pages
Feelings gone a stray
But she will sing

Til everything burns
While everyone screams
Burning their lies
Burning my dreams
All of this hate
And all of this pain
I'll burn it all down
As my anger reigns
Til everything burns

Ooh, oh

Walking through life unnoticed
Knowing that no one cares
Too consumed in their masquerade
No one sees her there
And still she sings

Til everything burns
While everyone screams
Burning their lies
Burning my dreams
All of this hate
And all of this pain
I'll burn it all down
As my anger reigns

Til everything burns
Everything burns
(Everything burns)
Everything burns
Watching it all fade away
(All fade away)
Everyone screams
Everyone screams
(Watching it all fade away)
Oooh, ooh
(While everyone screams)
Burning down lies
Burning my dreams
(All of this hate)
And all of this pain
I'll burn it all down
As my anger reigns
Til everything burns
(Everything burns)
Watching it all fade away
(Oooh, ooh)
(Everything burns)
Watching it all fade away

When it all goes crazy
And the thrill is gone
The days get rainy
And the nights get long
When you get that feeling
You were born to lose
Staring at your ceiling
Thining of your blues

When there's so much trouble
That you want to cry
The world has crumbled
And you don't know why
When your hopes are fading
And they can't be found
Dreams have left you waiting
Friends have let you down

Just remember I love you
And it'll be all right
Just remember I love you
More than I can say

Maybe then your blues
Will fade away

When you need a lover
And you're down so low
You start to wonder
But you never know
When it feels like sorrow
Is your only friend
Knowing that tomorrow
You'll feel this way again

When the blues come calling
At the break of dawn
The rain keeps falling
But the rainbow's gone
When you feel like crying
But the tears won't come
When your dreams are dying
When you're on the run

Just remember I love you
And it'll be all right
Just remember I love you
More than I can say

Just remember I love you
And it'll be all right
It'll be all right
It'll be all right
It'll be all right

Dear God, hope you got the letter, and...
I pray you can make it better down here.
I don't mean a big reduction in the price of beer
but all the people that you made in your image,
see them starving on their feet
'cause they don't get enough to eat from God,
I can't believe in you

Dear God, sorry to disturb you, but...
I feel that I should be heard loud and clear.
We all need a big reduction in amount of tears
and all the people that you made in your image,
see them fighting in the street
'cause they can't make opinions meet about God,
I can't believe in you

Did you make disease, and the diamond blue?
Did you make mankind after we made you? And the devil too!

Dear God, don't know if you noticed, but...
your name is on a lot of quotes in this book,
and us crazy humans wrote it, you should take a look,
and all the people that you made in your image
still believing that junk is true.
Well I know it ain't, and so do you, dear God,
I can't believe in
I don't believe in

I won't believe in heaven and hell.
No saints, no sinners, no devil as well.
No pearly gates, no thorny crown.
You're always letting us humans down.
The wars you bring, the babes you drown.
Those lost at sea and never found,
and it's the same the whole world 'round.
The hurt I see helps to compound
that Father, Son and Holy Ghost
is just somebody's unholy hoax,
and if you're up there you'd perceive
that my heart's here upon my sleeve.
If there's one thing I don't believe in

it's you...

Dear God.

I Am Nothing But A Need To Reach You.

If I Don't Go To The River I'm Going To Crawl Into A Hole And Fill Me In.
This Thing Will Suffocate Me.
So, You See, The Only Difference Is When.

I Don't Know What The Trick Is.

Look At Me. I Am Nothing But A Need To Reach You.

I've Waited So Long That I Can Smell The Rotting Of My Brain And
I'm Shaking And I'm Stammering And Tasting The Sting Of My Failure.

Look At Me.
I Am Nothing But A Need To Reach You.
Look At Me I Am Nothing But A Need, This Need.

Everyday I See Rage In The Mirror.

Throbbing Through Me.

And I Can See It Right There.
It's On My Wall And It's Frightening Me.

What does he care?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Eleanor rigby died in the church and was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father mckenzie wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

I can't meet
Losing sleep over this
No I can't
And now I cannot stop pacing
Give me a few hours
I'll have this all sorted out
If my mind would just stop racing

Cause I cannot stand still
I can be this unsturdy
This cannot be happening

This is over my head
But underneath my feet
Cause by tomorrow morning I'll have this thing beat
And everything will be back to the way that it was
I wish that it was just that easy

Cause I'm waiting for tonight
Been waiting for tomorrow
I'm somewhere in between
What is real
Just a dream
What is real
Just a dream
What is real
Just a dream

Would you catch me if I fall out of what I fell in
Dont be surprised if I collapse down at your feet again
I don't want to run away from this
I know that I just don't need this

Cause I cannot stand still
I can be this unsturdy
This cannot be happening

Cause I'm waiting for tonight
Been waiting for tomorrow
And I'm somewhere in between
What is real
Just a dream
What is real
Just a dream
What is real
Just a dream
What is real just a dream

Here by my side, an angel
Here by my side, the devil
Never turn your back on me
Never turn your back on me, again

Here by my side, it's heaven
Here by my side, you are destruction
Here by my side, a new colour to paint the world
Never turn your back on it
Never turn your back on it again,
Here by my side, it's heaven

Careful, be careful
Careful, be careful
This is where the world drops off
Where the world drops off
Careful, be careful
You breathe in and you breathe out
For it ain't so weird,
How it makes you a weapon
And you give in
and you give out
For it ain't so weird
How it makes you a weapon
Never turn your back on it
Never turn your back on it again

Careful, be careful

Here by my side, it's heaven
Here by my side, it's heaven

I wonder if anyone will even get this....or know where it comes from......


I died
So many years ago
But you can make me feel
Like it isn't so
And why you come to be with me
I think I finally know
mmm-mmm

You're scared
Ashamed of what you feel
And you can't tell the ones you love
You know they couldn't deal
Whisper in a dead man's ear
It doesn't make it real
That's great

But I don't wanna play
'Cause being with you touches me
More than I can say
And since I’m only dead to you
I’m saying stay away and
Let me rest in peace

Let me rest in peace
Let me get some sleep
Let me take my love and bury it
In a hole 6-foot deep
I can lay my body down
But I can't find my, sweet release
So let me rest in peace

You know,
You got a willing slave
And You just love to play the thought
That you might misbehave
But Till you do,
I'm telling you
Stop visiting my grave
Let me rest in peace

I know I should go
But I follow you like a man possessed
There's a traitor here beneath my breast
And it hurts me more than you've ever guessed
If my heart could beat, it would break my chest
but I can see you're unimpressed
So leave me be and

Let me rest in peace
Let me get some sleep
Let me take my love and bury it
Im a hole 6-foot deep
I can lay my body down
But I can't find my sweet release
Let me rest in peace
Why won't you
Let me rest in peace?

I just believe in me...and that reality.

The dream is over.
What can I say?

Yesterday,
I was the Dreamweaver,
But now I'm reborn.
I was the Walrus
But now I'm John.

And so, dear friends,
You'll just have to carry on.
The Dream is over.

So long ago—another life.
I can feel your heartbeat.

It's not a dream—remember us.
I can see it in your eyes.

We'll find our place in time,
A place in time beyond the sun.

We'll find our place in time,
A place in time to call our own.

2 Am and she calls me cause I'm still awake
Can you help me unravel my latest mistake
I don't love him and winter just wasn't my season.
Yea we walk through the doors so accusing their eyes
Like they have any right at all to criticize
Hypocrites you're all here for the very same reason.

Cause you can't jump the track
We're like cars on a cable and life's like an hourglass glued to the table,
No one can find the rewind button girl
So just cradle your head in your hands.
And breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe just breathe

May he turned 21 on the base of Fort Bliss
Just today he sat down to the flask in his fist
Ain't been sober since maybe October of last year
Here in town you can tell he's been down for while
But my God it's so beautiful when the boy smiles
Wanna hold him but maybe I'll just sing about it

Cause you can't jump the track
We're like cars on a cable
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table,
No one can find the rewind button boys so cradle your head in your hands
And breathe, just breathe, whoa breath just breathe

There's a light at the end of this tunnel you shout cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
And these mistakes you've made
You'll just make them again if you'll only try turnin' around

2Am and I'm still awake writing this song
If i get it all down on paper it's no lonmger inside of me threaten' the life it belongs to.
And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
Cause these words are my diary screamin' out aloud
And I know that you'll use them however you want to.

But you can't jump the track
We're like cars on a cable
And life's like an hourglass glued to the table,
No one can find the rewind button now
Sing it if you understand...yeah breath
Just breathe, ohho breathe

What did I ever do to you
To make you treat me this way?
Is it really such a crime for an angel
To speak his mind?
In time I'll try to shed some light.

If I were a big boy I wouldn't cry
But since I'm not a big boy
I have to cry...

What did I ever do so wrong
That you should cast me from Grace?
Though I love to rule in Hell, here
How I miss the taste of Heaven,
Its soft and cool embrace.

If I were a big boy I wouldn't cry
But since I'm not a big boy
I'll have to close my eyes and
Picture what it's like...

I'm just like you
I'm made by He
Despised by they
I'm almost me
I'm nearly human
Look at me
I'm almost a human being.

I'm just like you
I'm made by He
Despised by they
I'm almost me
I'm nearly human
Pity me
I'm almost a human being.

I still remember your light
And it was streaming down
And burning out my eyes.

If I were a big boy
I wouldn't cry
But since I'm not a big boy
I'll have to close my eyes and
Picture what it's like...

I'm just like you
I'm made by He
Despised by they
I'm almost me
I'm nearly human
Look at me
I'm almost a human being.

These tears are real
I'm jealousy, I'm spite and hate
To the core I'm mean
I'm nearly human
Look at me
I'm almost a human being.

I'm just like you
Better than He
To Hell with they
I'm almost me.
I'm nearly human
Look at me
I'm almost a human being.

Don't touch me, oh...
I could bear the
Thought of it now.
Don't touch me, oh...
I couldn't bear the strain

Don't touch me, oh...
I couldn't bear the
Thought of it now
Touch me, touch me,
Touch me.

Don't touch me,
Touch me, touch me.

If they knew my name in every home
Kevin Spacey would call on the phone
But I'd be too busy
Come back to the old five and dime
Cameron Diaz give me a sign
I make you smile all the time
and your conversation would complement mine

I will talk and Hollywood will listen
See them bow my every word
Mr. Spielberg look just what you're missing
Doesn't that seem a little absurd to bow at my every word

Buy up the rights to my book
And live on a ranch from what the box office took
I go on visit the set
They'll call me their savior
All the people wills come
Celebrity lives on the moon
But I'll be back home in June
To promote 'The sequel'

But don't let me stay here alone

I can't keep my eyes off of you

all of the things that I want to say
just aren't coming out right
I'm tripping inwards
you got my head spinning
I don't know where to go from here

cause it's you and me and all of the people
with nothing to do
nothing to prove
and it's you and me and all of the people

Come see a living, breathing spectacle only seen right here
It's your last chance in this lifetime, the line forms at the rear
You won't believe your eyes
Your eyes will not believe your ears
Get your money out, get ready
Step right up, yeah you, come here

You ain't seen nothing like him, he's the last one of the breed
Better hold on to your, honey
Honeys, don't forget to breathe
Enter at your own risk, mister
It might change the way you think
There's no dancers, there's no diamonds
No, this boy don't lip synch

Here's the last man standing
Step right up, here's the real thing
The last chance of a lifetime
Come and see, hear, feel… the real thing

See those real live calloused fingers wrapped around those guitar strings
Kiss the lips where hurt has lingered
It breaks your heart to hear them sing
The songs were more than music, they were pictures from the soul
So keep your pseudo-punk, hip-hop, pop-rock junk
And your digital downloads

Here's the last man standing
Step right up, here's the real thing
The last chance of a lifetime
To come and see, hear, feel… the real thing

Take your seats, now folks – it's showtime
Hey, Patrick, hit the lights
There's something in the air, there's magic in the night
Now here's the band, the really play
I'll count the first one in
I don't know where it's going
We all know where it's been

Here's the last man standing
Step right up, here's the real thing
The last chance of a lifetime
To come and see, hear, feel…
The last man standing
Step right up, here's the real thing
The last chance of a lifetime
Come and see, hear, feel…
The real thing, the real thing, the real thing, the real thing…

Whenever life get you down, Mrs. Brown,
And things seem hard or tough.
And people are stupid, obnoxious or daft,
And you feel that you've had quite enu-hu-hu-huuuuff!
Just - re-member that you're standing on a planet that's evolving
And revolving at 900 miles an hour.

It's orbiting at 19 miles a second, so it's reckoned,
The sun that is the source of all our power.
The Sun and you and me, and all the stars that we can see,
Are moving at a million miles a day,
In the outer spiral arm, at 40,000 miles an hour,
of the Galaxy we call the Milky Way.

Our Galaxy itself contains 100 billion stars,
It's 100,000 light-years side-to-side,
It bulges in the middle, 16,000 light-years thick,
But out by us it's just 3000 light-years wide.
We're 30,000 light-years from galactic central point,
We go round every 200 million years.

And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions
In this amazing and expanding universe.
The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding,
In all of the directions it can whizz,
As fast as it can go, at the speed of light you know,
Twelve million miles a minute, and that's the fastest speed there is.

So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure,
How amazingly unlikely is your birth,
And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space,
Because there's bugger all down here on Earth.

It’s nine o’clock on a Saturday,
The regular crowd shuffles in,
There’s an old man sitting next to me,
Makin’ love to his tonic and gin.

He says, son, can you play me a memory?
I’m not really sure how it goes,
But it’s sad and it’s sweet, and I knew it complete,
When I wore a younger man’s clothes.

La la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da

Sing us a song, you’re the piano man.
Sing us a song tonight.
Well, we’re all in the mood for a melody.
And you’ve got us feelin’ alright.

Now John at the bar is a friend of mine,
He gets me my drinks for free,
And he’s quick with a joke or to light up your smoke,
But there’s someplace that he’d rather be.
He says, Bill, I believe this is killing me.
As the smile ran away from his face.
"Well, I’m sure that I could be a movie star,
If I could get out of this place!"

Oh, la la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da

Now Paul is a real estate novelist,
Who never had time for a wife,
And he’s talkin’ with Davy who’s still in the navy,
And probably will be for life.

And the waitress is practicing politics,
As the businessmen slowly get stoned.
Yes, they’re sharing a drink they call loneliness,
But it’s better than drinkin’ alone.

Sing us a song, you’re the piano man.
Sing us a song tonight.
Well, we’re all in the mood for a melody.
And you’ve got us feelin’ alright.

It’s a pretty good crowd for a Saturday,
And the manager gives me a smile,
’Cause he knows that it’s me they’ve been comin’ to see,
To forget about life for a while.

And the piano, it sounds like a carnival,
And the microphone smells like a beer,
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar,
And say, man, what are you doin’ here?

Oh, la la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da

Sing us a song, you’re the piano man.
Sing us a song tonight.
Well, we’re all in the mood for a melody.
And you’ve got us feelin’ alright.

Tis Spike's Birthday!

Happy Birthday Fangs, don't know if'n you'll see this on your big day but tis here. Birthday wishes and song from the lion just cus your you and help take care of Steahl so well. *grins*

And now *ahem*...

Hey, man, it's been a while
Do you remember me?
When I hit the streets I was 17
A little wild, a little green
I've been up and down and in between
After all these years
Can you believe I'm still chasing that dream
But I ain't looking over my shoulder

I like the bed I'm sleeping in
It's just like me, it's broken in
It's not old -- just older
Like a favourite pair of torn blue jeans
This skin I'm in it's alright with me
It's not old -- just older

It's good to see your face
You ain't no worse for wear
Breathing that California air
When we took on the world
When we were young and brave
We got secrets that we'll take to the grave
And we're standing here shoulder to shoulder

I like the bed I'm sleeping in
It's just like me, it's broken in
It's not old -- just older
Like a favourite pair of torn blue jeans
This skin I'm in it's alright with me
It's not old -- just older

I'm not old enough to sing the blues
But I wore the holes in the soles of these shoes
You can roll the dice 'til they call your bluff
But you can't win until you're not afraid to lose

Solo

Well, I look in the mirror
I don't hate what I see
There's a few more lines staring back at me
The nights have grown a little colder
Hey man, I gotta run
Now you take care
If you see coach T. Tell him I cut my hair
It's been all these years
Can you believe I'm still chasing dreams
But I ain't looking over my shoulder

I like the bed I'm sleeping in
It's just like me, it's broken in
It's not old -- just older
Like a favourite pair of torn blue jeans
This skin I'm in it's alright with me
It' s not old -- just older



Happy Birthday ;D

Always look on the bright side of life.
[whistling]
Always look on the light side of life.
[whistling]

If life seems jolly rotten,
There's something you've forgotten,
And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing.
When you're feeling in the dumps,
Don't be silly chumps.
Just purse your lips and whistle. That's the thing.
And...

Always look on the bright side of life.
[whistling]
Always look on the right side of life,
[whistling]

For life is quite absurd
And death's the final word.
You must always face the curtain with a bow.
Forget about your sin.
Give the audience a grin.
Enjoy it. It's your last chance, anyhow.
So,...

Always look on the bright side of death,
[whistling]
Just before you draw your terminal breath.
[whistling]

Life's a piece of shit,
When you look at it.
Life's a laugh and death's a joke. It's true.
You'll see it's all a show.
Keep 'em laughing as you go.
Just remember that the last laugh is on you.
And...

Always look on the bright side of life.

Royalty checks reflects with few dollars
But my DJ makes the people wanna holler

[CHORUS]
Love is in the house and the house is packed
So much so I left the back door cracked
Mama always said it's a matter of fact
that when love is in the house the house is packed
Love is in the house and the house is packed
So much so I left the back door cracked
Daddy always said that I wish I was black
cuz when love is in the house the house is packed

Packed like a baby nine months in the womb
Man it was packed like the closet full of Nike's in my room
Singin' Oh sweet Lord take me to the next level
Where the love's much thicker than the stares of my devils
So whether or not this is a dream or reality
Let me appeal to the graces of His majesty
Amazing it will be when this tree bears life
My roots run to the river and the Giver of Life

Corporate jets they flex with big dollars
Two palm pilots and a room full of bawlers
Royalty checks reflects with few dollars
But amazing grace makes the people wanna holler

[CHORUS]

Woke up this morning, didn't know what to do
There was people all around me tellin' me to sing the blues
Said they ain't seen no happy since 1992
Then they turned to me thinking I'd agree and I offered
this humble view

*growls* Now, I'm not one to complain about music-downloading, but it does have some down-sides. For example, allowing one to hear musicians mentioned in passing on small, X-Men forums and develop addictions from them. In short...dammit, Panth. :P

What did I ever do to you,
That you should treat me this way?
Is it really such a crime
For an angel to speak his mind?
In time I'll try to shed some light.
If I were a big boy, I wouldn't cry,
But since I'm not a big boy, I'll have to cry.

What did I ever do so wrong
That you should cast me from Grace?
Though I love to rule in Hell here,
How I miss the taste of Heaven!
Its soft and cool embrace.
If I were a big boy, I wouldn't cry,
But since I'm not a big boy,
I'll have to close my eyes,
And picture what's it's like.

I'm just like you,
I'm made by He,
Despised by they,
I'm almost me,
I'm nearly human, look at me,
I'm almost a human being.

I'm just like you,
Made by He,
Despised by they,
I'm almost me,
I'm nearly human,
Pity me, I'm almost a human being.

I still remember your light,
And it was streaming down,
And burning out my eyes.
If I were a big boy, I wouldn't cry,
But, since I'm not a big boy,
I'll have to close my eyes,
And picture what it's like.

I'm just like you,
I'm made by He,
Despised by they,
I'm almost me.
I'm nearly human, look at me.
I'm almost a human being.

There tears are real,
I'm jealousy, I'm spite and hate,
To the core I'm mean.
I'm nearly human, look at me.
I'm almost a human being.
I'm just like you,
Better than He,
To Hell with they,
I'm almost me!
I'm nearly human,
Pity me, I'm almost a human being.

Don't touch me, ohhh....
I couldn't bear the thought of it now.
Don't touch me, ohhh....
I couldn't bear the strain.
Don't touch me, ohhh....
I couldn't bear the thought of it now.
Touch me, touch me, touch me....
Don't touch me, touch me, touch me....

What good is sitting alone in your room?
Come hear the music play.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
Come to the Cabaret.

Put down the knitting,
The book and the broom.
Time for a holiday.
Life is Cabaret, old chum,
Come to the Cabaret.

Come taste the wine,
Come hear the band.
Come blow your horn,
Start celebrating;
Right this way,
Your table's waiting

No use permitting
soem prophet of doom
To wipe every smile away.
Come hear the music play.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
Come to the Cabaret!

I used to have a girlfriend
known as Elsie
With whom I shared
Four sordid rooms in Chelsea

She wasn't what you'd call
A blushing flower...
As a matter of fact
She rented by the hour.

The day she died the neighbors
came to snicker:
"Well, thats what comes
from to much pills and liquor."

But when I saw her laid out like a Queen
She was the happiest...corpse...
I'd ever seen.

I think of Elsie to this very day.
I'd remember how'd she turn to me and say:
"What good is sitting alone in your room?
Come hear the music play.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
Come to the Cabaret."

And as for me,
I made up my mind back in Chelsea,
When I go, I'm going like Elsie.

Start by admitting
From cradle to tomb
Isn't that long a stay.
Life is a Cabaret, old chum,
Only a Cabaret, old chum,
And I love a Cabaret!

No matter how strong,
I'm gonna take you down
With one little stone.
I'm gonna break you down,
And see what you're worth.
What you're really worth to me.

Dinner at eight was okay,
Before the toast full of blames.
It was great until those old magazines,
Got us started up again.
Actually...it was probably me,
Again.

Why is it so,
That I've always been the one who must go?
That I've always been the one told to flee?
When it fact you were the one ong ago,
Actually in the drifting white snow...
You left me.

So put up your fists, and I'll put up mine.
No running away from the scene of the crime.
God's chosen a place.
Somewhere near the end of the world...
Somewhere near the end of our lives.

But 'til then no, Daddy, don't be surprised,
If I wanna see the tears in your eyes.
Then I know it had to be long ago,
Actually in the drifting white snow,
You loved me.

No matter how strong,
I'm gonna take you down,
With one little stone.
I'm gonna break you down,
And see what you're worth,
What you're really worth to me.
