Poets...The Tragically Hip

Spring starts when a heartbeat's poundin'

When the birds can be heard above the reckonin' carts doing some final accounting

Lava flowin' in Super Farmer's direction

He's been gettin' reprieve from the heat in the frozen-food section (yaa-Aa)

Don't tell me what the poets are doing

Don't tell me that they're talkin' tough

Don't tell me that they're anti-social

Somehow not anti-social enough, all right

And porn speaks to it's splintered legions

To the pink amid the withered corn stalks in them winter regions (euyeaaah)

While aiming at the archetypal father

He said with such broad and tentative swipes why do you even bother (yeeaaah)

Don't tell me what the poets are doing

Those Himalayas of the mind

Don't tell me what the poets been doing

In the long grasses over time

{ Instra }

Don't tell me what the poets are doing

On the street and the epitome of vague

Don't tell me how the universe is altered

When you find out how he gets paid, all right

If there's nothing more that you need now

Lawn cut by bare-breasted women

Beach bleached towels within reach for the women gotta make it that'll make it by swimmin'

Because I'm feeling soft and romantic tonight:

Something

George Harrison

Something in the way, she moves

Attracts me like no other lover

Something in the way, she moves me

I don't want to leave her now

You know I believe, and how

Something in the way, she smiles

And I don't need no other lover

Something in her style that shows me

I don't want to leave her now

You know I believe, and how

You're asking me will my love grow?

I don't know, I don't know

You stick around now, it may show

I don't know, I don't know

Something in the way, she knows

And all I have to do is think of her

Something in the things, she shows me

I don't want to leave her now

You know I believe, and how

​

I absolutely love this song and George Harrison. He's sexy.

When I'm With You

Sheriff

I never needed love like I need you

And I never lived for nobody, but I live for you

Oooh, babe, lost in love is what I feel when I'm with you

Maybe it's the way you touch me with the warmth of a sun

Maybe it's the way you smile, I come all undone

Oooh, babe, lost in love is that I feel when I'm with you

Baby, oh I get chills when I'm with you

Baby, my world stands still when I'm with you

When I'm with you

I never cared for nobody like I care for you

And I never wanted to share the things I want to share with you

Oooh, babe, lost in love is what I feel when I'm with you

Baby, oh I get chills when I'm with you

Baby, my world stands still when I'm with you

When I'm with you

Baby, oh I get chills when I'm with you

Baby, my world stands still when I'm with you

When I'm with you

When I'm with you

When I'm with you...

[emkay64]

She calls me goliath and I wear the david mask

I guess the stones are coming too fast for her now

You know Id like to believe this nervousness will pass

All the stones that are thrown are building up a wall

I have become cumbersome to this world

I have become cumbersome to my girl

Id like to believe we could reconcile the past

Resurrect those bridges with an ancient glance

But my old stone face cant seem to break her down

She remembers bridges, burns them to the ground

I have become cumbersome to this world

I have become cumbersome to this girl

Too heavy too light, too black or too white, too wrong or too right, today or tonight

Cumbersome

Too rich too poor, shes wanting me less and Im wanting her more

The bitter taste is cumbersome

There is a balance between two worlds

One with an arrow and a cross

Regardless of the balance life has become

Cumbersome

Be Yourself lyrics

Someone falls to pieces, sleeping all alone

Someone kills the pain, spinning in the silence

To finally drift away

Someone gets excited

In a chapel yard and catches a bouquet

Another lays a dozen, white roses on a grave

Yeah and to be yourself is all that you can do

Hey, to be yourself is all that you can do

Someone finds salvation in everyone, another only pain

Someone tries to hide himself, down inside himself he prays

Someone swears his true love until the end of time

Another runs away, separate or united, healthy or insane

And to be yourself is all that you can do, yeah

(All that you can do)

To be yourself is all that you can do

(All that you can do)

To be yourself is all that you can do

(All that you can do)

Hey, be yourself is all that you can do

Even when you've paid enough

Been pulled apart or been held up

Every single memory of the good or bad

Faces of luck

Don't lose any sleep tonight

I'm sure everything will end up alright

You may win or lose

But to be yourself is all that you can do, yeah

To be yourself is all that you can do

Oh, to be yourself is all that you can do

(All that you can do)

Hey, to be yourself is all that you can do

(All that you can do)

To be yourself is all that you can

Be yourself is all that you can

Be yourself is all that you can do

Doesn't Remind Me

Audioslave

I walk the streets of Japan till I get lost

Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

With a graveyard tan carrying a cross

Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

I like studying faces in a parking lot

Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

I like driving backwards in the fog

Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

The things that I've loved the things that I've lost

The things I've held sacred that I've dropped

I won't lie no more you can bet

I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget

I like gypsy moths and radio talk

Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

I like gospel music and canned applause

Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

I like colorful clothing in the sun

Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

I like hammering nails and speaking in tongues

Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

The things that I've loved the things that I've lost

The things I've held sacred that I've dropped

I won't lie no more you can bet

I don't want to learn what I'll need

Bend and shape me

I love the way you are

Slow and sweetly

Like never before

Calm and sleeping

We won't stir up the past

So discretely

We won't look back

The things that I've loved the things that I've lost

The things I've held sacred that I've dropped

I won't lie no more you can bet

I don't want to learn what I'll need

I like throwing my voice and breaking guitars

Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

I like playing in the sand what's mine is ours

If it doesn't remind me of anything

I'd fly above the trees

Over the seas in all degrees

To anywhere I please

Where it could just be ours

Lets fade into the sun

Let your spirit fly

Where we are one

Just for a little fun

Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'

You make me weep and wanna die

Just when you said we'd try

Lovin', touchin', squeezin' each other

When I'm alone all by myself

You're out with someone else

Lovin, touchin, squeezin each other

You're tearin' me apart

Every day, every day

You're tearin' me apart

Oh what can I say?

You're tearin' me apart

It wont be long, yes till you're alone

When your lover, oh, he hasn't come home

Cause hes lovin' oo, he's touchin',

Hes squeezin' another

Hes tearin' you apart

Every day, every day

Cool Change

Little River Band

If there's one thing in my life that's missing

It's the time I spend alone

Sailing on the cool and bright clear waters

There's lots of those friendly people

Showin' me ways to go

And I never want to lose your inspiration

Time for

a cool change...

I know that it's time

for a cool change

Now that my life

is so pre-arranged

I know that it's time

for a cool change

Well I was born in the sign of water

And it's there that I feel my best

The albatross and the whales

they are my brothers

It's kind of a special feeling

When you're out on the sea alone

Starin' at the full moon

like a lover

Time for

a cool change...

I know that it's time

for a cool change

Now that my life

is so prearranged

I know that it's time

for a cool change

Well I've never been romantic

And sometimes I don't care

I know it may sound selfish

But let me breathe the air

If there's one thing in my life that's missing

It's the time that I spend alone

Sailing on the cool and bright clear waters

It's kind of a special feeling

When you're out on the sea alone

Staring at the full moon like a lover

Time for

a cool change...

I know that it's time

for a cool change

Now that my life is so prearranged

I know that it's time

for a cool change

Burning Bright

Shinedown

I feel like there is no need for conversation

Some questions are better left without a reason

And I would rather reveal myself than my situation

Now and then I consider, my hesitation

The more the light shines through me

I pretend to close my eyes

The more the dark consumes me

I pretend I'm burning, burning bright

I wonder if the things I did were just to be different

To spare myself of the constant shame of my existence

And I would surely redeem myself in my desperation

Here and now I'll express, my situation

The more the light shines through me

I pretend to close my eyes

The more the dark consumes me

I pretend I'm burning, burning bright

There's nothing ever wrong but nothing's ever right

Such a cruel contradiction

I know I cross the lines its not easy to define

I'm born to indecision

There's always something new some path I'm supposed to choose

With no particular rhyme or reason

The more the light shines through me

I pretend to close my eyes

The more the dark consumes me

I pretend I'm burning, burning bright

[snafu]

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 anyone

And we all 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 alive

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

you're 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 until you smiled

You were lonely for a man

I said take me as I am

'Cause you might enjoy some

madness for awhile

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

you're 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

you're 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

Lyrics: You may be Right, Billy Joel

We do what we can

Sheryl Crow (Cover by some no name named Michon since the only one of Sheryl Crow doing it was blank)

Had good comments.. Hope it's worth a listen when my dial up loads it in an hour..

Downstairs they're playing Kenton

The house set to swing

I lay in my bed

And listen to everything

Cause Leo's in rare form tonight

His trombone sings so sweet

This is the room

Where they all come to meet

He said

I do what I can

I live for the moment

And that's who I am

Yeah that's who I am

And is'nt it good

If we could freeze moments in time

We all would

But I do what I can

I do what I can

Downstairs hes playing Kenton

The magnavox sighs

But oh how the music has changed

In all of our lives

He says nobody listens

To modern jazz

And Ill never have what those guys have

He says

I do what I can

I work for a living

And that's who I am

Yeah that's who I am

And its good to be alive

But everything's different since Leo died

I do what I can

Is this the end of the modern world

What could it mean for a young girl

Who sees the pain on his face

He does what he can

The procession on the tv screen

What could it possibly mean for a man

Who's come this far just to turn around

Could there still be life in Kentons swing

With the Kennedys gone and everything

Those sad rows of houses with their optimistic colors

Democrat grandparents and draft-dodging brothers

Riots down the street and discontented mothers

We do what we can

Downstairs its quiet

Less alive somehow

Somehow he was everything that I am now

And he says

I do what I can

I work for a living

And that's who I am

And that's who I am

But its good to be alive

And these are the choices

We make to survive

You do what you can

Little Wing

Jimi Hendrix (Cover by some no names named Eric Clapton and Sheryl Crow)

This looks interesting.. Hope I enjoy it in 2 hours..

Well she's walking through the clouds

With a circus mind that's running round

Butterflies and zebras

And moonbeams and fairy tales

That's all she ever thinks about

Riding with the wind.

When I'm sad, she comes to me

With a thousand smiles, she gives to me free

Its alright she says its alright

Take anything you want from me, anything

Anything.

Fly on little wing,

Yeah yeah, yeah, little wing

Turn me on

Norah Jones

Like a flower waiting to bloom

Like a lightbulb in a dark room

I'm just sitting here waiting for you

To come on home and turn me on

Like the desert waiting for the rain

Like a school kid waiting for the spring

I'm just sitting here waiting for you

To come on home and turn me on

My poor heart, it's been so dark

Since you've been gone

After all, you're the one who turns me off

You're the only one who can turn me back on

My hi-fi is waiting for a new tune

My glass is waiting for some fresh ice cubes

I'm just sitting here waiting for you

To come on home and turn me on, turn me on

That's the Way - Led Zeppelin

Don't know how I'm gonna tell you, I can't play with you no more,

I don't know how I'm gonna do what mama told me, My friend, the boy next door.

I can't believe what people saying, You're gonna let your hair hang down,

I'm satisfied to sit here working all day long, You're in the darker side of town.

And when I'm out I see you walking, Why don't your eyes see me?

Could it be you've found another game to play, What did mama say to me?

That's The Way, Oh, That's The Way it oughtta be, yeah, yeah,

Mama say That's The Way it oughtta stay,

And yesterday I saw you standing by the river,

And weren't those tears that filled your eyes?

And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying,

Had they got you hypnotized?

And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers,

But all that lives is born to die.

And so I say to you that nothing really matters,

And all you do is stand and cry.

I don't know what to say about it,

When all your ears are turned away,

But now's the time to look and look again at what you see,

Is that the way it ought to stay?

That's the way... That's the way it oughtta be, oh don't you know now,

Mama said, mama said... that's the way it's gonna stay, yeah. ahh, ahhh, ahhhhhhhh

Headstones ? Cubically Contained Lyrics

good for me, for a time

all hell's cubically contained

starched and bottled

pressed and altered

and ready for the rings

the first tiny little shadows of my creepy little thoughts

and have it all that matters

and i lose by default

and i'll never promise anything again

i never promise anything again

i never promise anything again

i set a dozen 12-step traps

they slip by everyone

i never catch the little bastards

i really do wish that they'd own up

those paranoid little fukkers

take their paranoid little time

and when the moon rolls in

they're like a bank-robbin'

and i'm a hostage who will drive

and i never promise anything again

i never promise anything again

i never promise never promise never promise

anything again anything again

never promise never promise

anything again anything again

never promise anything again

now i can only do so much

and i will never deviate

i hear myself take a deep breath

and think i musta wanted it this way

i remember all those little traps

i could not keep them in place

and whenever stationed anywhere

they were terrorized and maimed

so tonight i set a vigil and my shadow's all that's cast

and the iron that's encased it

is doing all that one could ask

and i never promise anything again

i never promise anything again

i never promise anything again anything again

never promise anything again

never promise anything again anything again

never promise anything again

Big Log

Robert Plant

My love is in league with the freeway

Its passion will ride, as the cities fly by

And the tail-lights dissolve, in the coming of night

And the questions in thousands take flight

My love is a-miles in the waiting

The eyes that just stare, and the glance at the clock

And the secret that burns, and the pain that grows dark

And it's you once again

Leading me on - leading me down the road

Driving beyond - driving me down the road

My love is exceedingly vivid

Red-eyed and fevered with the hum of the miles

Distance and longing, my thoughts do provide

Should I rest for a while at the side

Your love is cradled in knowing

Eyes in the mirror, still expecting they'll come

Sensing too well when the journey is done

There is no turning back - no

There is no turning back - on the run

My love is in league with the freeway

Oh the freeway, and the coming of night-time

My love is in league with the freeway
