Here's some Floyd off the Final Cut Album..

 

Good stuff.. quite political from an Englishmans point of view.

 

Two Suns in the Sunset

 

Pink Floyd

 

In my rear view mirror the sun is going down

 

Sinking behind bridges in the road

 

And I think of all the good things

 

That we have left undone

 

And I suffer premonitions

 

Confirm suspicions

 

Of the holocaust to come

 

The wire that holds the cork

 

That keeps the anger in

 

Gives way

 

And suddenly its day again

 

The sun is in the east

 

Even though the day is done

 

Two suns in the sunset

 

Hmmmmmmmmm

 

Could be the human race is run

 

Like the moment when your brakes lock

 

And you slide toward the big truck

 

And stretch the frozen moments with your fear

 

And youll never hear their voices

 

And youll never see their faces

 

You have no recourse to the law anymore

 

And as the windshield melts

 

My tears evaporate

 

Leaving only charcoal to defend

 

Finally I understand

 

The feelings of the few

 

Ashes and diamonds

 

Foe and friend

 

We were all equal in the end

One of the most powerful songs I've ever heard.. beautiful

 

Not Now John

 

Pink Floyd

 

**** all that we've got to get on with these

there's too many home fires burning

 

and not enough trees

as long as the kids go

Stuff all That?? Censorship stinks.. oh well.. great song.

 

Think I found the uncut version.. hope it works..

 

Paranoid Eyes

 

Pink Floyd

 

Button your lip. Don't let the shield slip.

 

Take a fresh grip on your bullet proof mask.

 

And if they try to break down your disguise with their questions

 

You can hide, hide, hide,

 

"I'll tell you what, I'll give you three blacks, and play you for five

 

..."

 

"Ta! You was unlucky there son"

 

"Time gentleman!"

 

Behind paranoid eyes.

 

You put on our brave face and slip over the road for a jar.

 

Fixing your grin as you casually lean on the bar,

 

Laughing too loud at the rest of the world

 

With the boys in the crowd

 

You hide, hide, hide,

 

Behind petrified eyes.

 

You believed in their stories of fame, fortune and glory.

 

Now you're lost in a haze of alcohol soft middle age

 

The pie in the sky turned out to be miles too high.

 

And you hide, hide, hide,

 

Behind brown and mild eyes.

 

"Oi!"

The Fletcher Memorial Home

 

Pink Floyd

 

Take all your overgrown infants away somewhere

 

And build them a home, a little place of their own.

 

The Fletcher Memorial

 

Home for Incurable Tyrants and Kings.

 

And they can appear to themselves every day

 

On closed circuit T.V.

 

To make sure they're still real.

 

It's the only connection they feel.

 

"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome, Reagan and Haig,

 

Mr. Begin and friend, Mrs. Thatcher, and Paisly,

 

"Hello Maggie!"

 

Mr. Brezhnev and party.

 

"Scusi dov'? il bar?"

 

The ghost of McCarthy,

 

The memories of Nixon.

 

"Who's the bald chap?"

 

"Good-bye!"

 

And now, adding colour, a group of anonymous latin-

 

American meat packing glitterati.

 

Did they expect us to treat them with any respect?

 

They can polish their medals and sharpen their

 

Smiles, and amuse themselves playing games for awhile.

 

Boom boom, bang bang, lie down you're dead.

 

Safe in the permanent gaze of a cold glass eye

 

With their favorite toys

 

They'll be good girls and boys

 

In the Fletcher Memorial Home for colonial

 

Wasters of life and limb.

 

Is everyone in?

 

Are you having a nice time?

 

Now the final solution can be applied.

 

[ame]www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Dpyjvo3XWk[/ame]

 

Was that Hitlers "Final Solution" he's referring to? :rolleyes:

 

The Final Cut

 

Pink Floyd

 

Through the fish-eyed lens of tear stained eyes

 

I can barely define the shape of this moment in time

 

And far from flying high in clear blue skies

 

I'm spiraling down to the hole in the ground where I hide.

 

If you negotiate the minefield in the drive

 

And beat the dogs and cheat the cold electronic eyes

 

And if you make it past the shotgun in the hall,

 

Dial the combination, open the priesthole

 

And if I'm in I'll tell you what's behind the wall.

 

There's a kid who had a big hallucination

 

Making love to girls in magazines.

 

He wonders if you're sleeping with your new found faith.

 

Could anybody love him

 

Or is it just a crazy dream?

 

And if I show you my dark side

 

Will you still hold me tonight?

 

And if I open my heart to you

 

And show you my weak side

 

What would you do?

 

Would you sell your story to Rolling Stone?

 

Would you take the children away

 

And leave me alone?

 

And smile in reassurance

 

As you whisper down the phone?

 

Would you send me packing?

 

Or would you take me home?

 

Thought I oughta bare my naked feelings,

 

Thought I oughta tear the curtain down.

 

I held the blade in trembling hands

 

Prepared to make it but just then the phone rang

 

I never had the nerve to make the final cut.

 

"Hello? Listen, I think I've got it. Okay, listen its a HaHa!"

Post War Dream

 

Pink Floyd

 

[Car sound, switching on of car radio]

 

"...announced plans to build a nuclear fallout shelter at Peterborough

 

in Cambridgeshire..."

 

[phzzt! of returning]

 

"...three high court judges have cleared the way..."

 

[phzzt!]

 

"...It was announced today, that the replacement for the Atlantic

 

Conveyor the container ship lost in the Falklands conflict would be

 

built in Japan, a spokesman for..."

 

[phzzt!]

 

"...moving in. They say the third world countries, like Bolivia, which

 

produce the drug are suffering from rising violence...[fades]"

 

Tell me true, tell me why, was Jesus crucified

 

Is it for this that Daddy died?

 

Was it for you? Was it me?

 

Did I watch too much T.V.?

 

Is that a hint of accusation in your eyes?

 

If it wasn't for the nips

 

Being so good at building ships

 

The yards would still be open on the clyde.

 

And it can't be much fun for them

 

Beneath the rising sun

 

With all their kids committing suicide.

 

What have we done, Maggie what have we done?

 

What have we done to England?

 

Should we shout, should we scream

 

"What happened to the post war dream?"

 

Oh Maggie, Maggie what have we done?

The Gunners Dream

 

Pink Floyd

 

Floating down through the clouds

 

Memories come rushing up to meet me now.

 

In the space between the heavens

 

and in the corner of some foreign field

 

I had a dream.

 

I had a dream.

 

Good-bye Max.

 

Good-bye Ma.

 

After the service when you're walking slowly to the car

 

And the silver in her hair shines in the cold November air

 

You hear the tolling bell

 

And touch the silk in your lapel

 

And as the tear drops rise to meet the comfort of the band

 

You take her frail hand

 

And hold on to the dream.

 

A place to stay

 

"Oi! A real one ..."

 

Enough to eat

 

Somewhere old heroes shuffle safely down the street

 

Where you can speak out loud

 

About your doubts and fears

 

And what's more no-one ever disappears

 

You never hear their standard issue kicking in your door.

 

You can relax on both sides of the tracks

 

And maniacs don't blow holes in bandsmen by remote control

 

And everyone has recourse to the law

 

And no-one kills the children anymore.

 

And no one kills the children anymore.

 

Night after night

 

Going round and round my brain

 

His dream is driving me insane.

 

In the corner of some foreign field

 

The gunner sleeps tonight.

 

What's done is done.

 

We cannot just write off his final scene.

 

Take heed of his dream.

 

Take heed.

Pink Floyd

 

I am just a new boy

 

Stranger in this town

 

Where are all the good times?

 

Who's gonna show this stranger around?

 

Ooooo I need a dirty woman

 

Ooooo I need a dirty girl

 

Will some woman in this desert land

 

Make me feel like a real man?

 

Take this rock n roll refugee

 

Ooo Babe, set me free

 

Ooooo I need a dirty woman

 

Ooooo I need a dirty girl

 

Ooooo I need a dirty woman

 

Ooooo I need a dirty girl

Will you accept the charges from the United States"

 

(Phone is Hung Up)

 

"He hung up. Is this your residence, sir?"

 

"I wonder why he hung up..."

besides your wife to answer."

"Are we reaching?"

Nobody Home

 

Pink Floyd

 

I got a little black book with my poems in.

 

Got a bag, got a toothbrush and a comb.

 

When Im a good dog they sometimes throw me a bone.

 

I got elastic bands keeping my shoes on.

 

Got those swollen hands blues.

 

Got thirteen channels of **** on the tv to choose from.

 

I got electric light,

 

And I got second sight.

 

Got amazing powers of observation.

 

And that is how I know,

 

When I try to get through,

 

On the telephone to you,

 

Therell be nobody home.

 

I got the obligatory hendrix perm,

 

And the inevitable pinhole burns,

 

All down the front of my favorite satin shirt.

 

I got nicotine stains on my fingers.

 

I got a silver spoon on a chain.

 

Got a grand piano to prop up my mortal remains.

 

Ive got wild, staring eyes.

 

And I got a strong urge to fly,

 

But I got nowhere to fly to (-- fly to... fly to... fly to...).

 

Ooooo babe,

 

When I pick up the phone,

 

Theres still nobody home.

 

I got a pair of gohill boots,

 

And I got fading roots.

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bxsD0IXrTIY]YouTube - Pink Floyd - Nobody Home (The Wall Live in Berlin)[/ame]

 

This version has an incredible guitar solo sorely lacking in the original

 

Hey You

 

Pink Floyd

 

Hey you, out there in the cold

 

Getting lonely, getting old

 

Can you feel me?

 

Hey you, standing in the aisles

 

With itchy feet and fading smiles

 

Can you feel me?

 

Hey you, dont help them to bury the light

 

Dont give in without a fight.

 

Hey you, out there on your own

 

Sitting naked by the phone

 

Would you touch me?

 

Hey you, with you ear against the wall

 

Waiting for someone to call out

 

Would you touch me?

 

Hey you, would you help me to carry the stone?

 

Open your heart, Im coming home.

 

But it was only fantasy.

 

The wall was too high,

 

As you can see.

 

No matter how he tried,

 

He could not break free.

 

And the worms ate into his brain.

 

Hey you, standing in the road

 

Always doing what youre told,

 

Can you help me?

 

Hey you, out there beyond the wall,

 

Breaking bottles in the hall,

 

Can you help me?

 

Hey you, dont tell me theres no hope at all

 

Together we stand, divided we fall.

 

[click of tv being turned on]

 

Well, only got an hour of daylight left. better get started

 

Isnt it unsafe to travel at night?

 

Itll be a lot less safe to stay here. youre fathers gunna pick up our trail before long

 

Can loca ride?

 

Yeah, I can ride... magaret, time to go! maigret, thank you for everything

 

Goodbye chenga

 

Goodbye miss ...

 

Ill be back

Goodbye Blue Sky

 

Pink Floyd

 

Look mummy, the small plane up in the sky

 

Oooooooo ooo ooo ooooh

 

Did you see the frightened ones

 

Did you hear the falling bombs

 

Did you ever wonder

 

Why we had to run for shelter

 

When the promise of a brave new world

 

Unfurled beneath a clear blue sky

 

Oooooooo ooo ooooo oooh

 

Did you see the frightened ones

 

Did you hear the falling bombs

 

The flames are all long gone

 

But the pain lingers on

 

Goodbye blue sky

 

Goodbye blue sky

 

Goodbye

 

Goodbye

 

[ame]www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0v07InoFiU[/ame]

 

How ironic.. the shape of these lyrics centered look like a falling bomb!

 

One of my Turns

 

Pink Floyd

 

Day after day, love turns gray

 

Like the skin of a dying man.

 

Night after night, we pretend its all right

 

But I have grown older and

 

You have grown colder and

 

Nothing is very much fun any more.

 

And I can feel one of my turns coming on.

 

I feel cold as a razor blade,

 

Tight as a tourniquet,

 

Dry as a funeral drum.

 

Run to the bedroom,

 

In the suitcase on the left

 

You'll find my favorite axe.

 

Don't look so frightened

 

This is just a passing phase,

 

One of my bad days.

 

Would you like to watch T.V.?

 

Or get between the sheets?

 

Or contemplate the silent freeway?

 

Would you like something to eat?

 

Would you like to learn to fly?

 

Would'ya?

 

Would you like to see me try?

 

AAAH, no!

 

Would you like to call the cops?

 

Do you think it's time I stopped?

 

Why are you running away

 

[ame]www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmwUIgLzVEE[/ame]

 

Don't leave me now

 

Pink Floyd

 

Ooooh babe

 

Don't leave me now

 

Don't say it's the end of the road

 

Remember the flowers I sent

 

I need you babe

 

to put through the shredder

 

in front of my friends

 

Ooooh babe

 

Don't leave me now

 

How could you go?

 

When you know how I need you

 

to beat to a pulp on a Saturday night

 

Ooooh babe

 

Don't leave me now

 

How can you treat me this way?

 

Running away

 

I need you babe

 

Why are you running away?

 

Ooooooh babe

Another Brick in the Wall pt 3

 

Pink Floyd

 

I don't need no arms around me

 

I don't need no drugs to calm me

 

I Have seen the writing on the wall

 

Don't think I need anything at all

 

No don't think I need anything at all

 

All in all it was all just bricks in the wall

 

All in all you were all just bricks in the wall

Waiting for the worms

 

Pink Floyd

 

Oooo you cannot reach me now,

 

Oooo no matter how you try.

 

Goodbye cruel world, its over.

 

Walk on by.

 

Sitting in a bunker,

 

Here behind my wall,

 

Waiting for the worms to come. ( worms to come. )

 

In perfect isolation,

 

Here behind my wall,

 

Waiting for the worms to come. ( worms to come. )

 

Waiting, to cut out the deadwood.

 

Waiting, to clean up the city.

 

Waiting, to follow the worms.

 

Waiting, to put on a black shirt.

 

Waiting, to weed out the weaklings.

 

Waiting, to smash in their windows and kick in their doors.

 

Waiting, for the final solution to strengthen the strain.

 

Waiting, to follow the worms.

 

Waiting, to turn on the showers and fire the ovens.

 

Waiting, for the queers and the coons and the reds and the jews.

 

Waiting, to follow the worms.

 

Would you like to see britannia,

 

Rule again, my friend?

 

All you have to do is follow the worms.

 

Would you like to send our colored cousins,

 

Home again, my friend?

 

All you need to do is follow the worms.

The Trial

 

Pink Floyd

 

Good morning worm your honour

 

The crown will plainly show

 

The Prisoner who now stand before you

 

was caught red handed showing feelings

 

Showing feelings of an almost human nature

 

This will not do

 

Call the schoolmaster

 

I have always said he'd come to no good

 

in the end, your honour

 

If they'd let me have my way

 

I could have flayed him into shape

 

But my hands were tied

 

The bleeding hearts and artists

 

let him get away with murder

 

Let me hammer him today

 

Crazy, toys in the attic, I am crazy

 

(Surely gone fishing)

 

They must have taken my marbles away

 

Call the defendant's wife

 

You little ****, you're in it now

 

I hope they throw away the key

 

You should have talked to me more often than you did

 

but no! You had to go your own way

 

Have you broken any homes up lately?

 

Just five minutes Worm your honour

 

Him and me alone

 

Babe!

 

Come to mother baby let me hold you in my arms

 

M'lud I never wanted him to get in any trouble

 

Why'd he ever have to leave me

 

Worm your honour let me take him home

 

Crazy, over the rainbow, I am crazy

 

Bars in the window

 

There must have been a door there in the wall

 

when I came in

 

Crazy, over the rainbow, he is crazy

 

The evidence before the court is incontrovertible

 

There's no need for the jury to retire

 

In all my years of judging

 

I have never heard before

 

of someone more deserving

 

the full penalty of law

 

The way you made them suffer

 

Your exquisite wife and mother

 

fills me with the urge to defecate

 

Since, my friend you have revealed

 

your deepest fear

 

I sentence you to be exposed

 

before you peers

 

Tear down the wall

 

Tear down the wall

 

[ame]www.youtube.com/watch?v=jViTte8VAzU[/ame]

 

Showing feeling of an almost human nature.. how absurd.

Mother - Pink Floyd

 

Mother do you think they'll drop the bomb

 

Mother do you think they'll like the song

 

Mother do you think they'll try to break my balls

 

Ooooh aah, Mother should I build a wall

 

Mother should I run for president

 

Mother should I trust the government

 

Mother will they put me in the firing line

 

Ooooh aah, is it it just a waste of time *

 

Hush now baby baby don't you cry

Mama will keep baby cozy and warm

 

Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe

Oooh aah, mother will she break my heart

 

Hush now baby, baby don't you cry

 

Mama's gonna check out all your girl friends for you

You've been

 

Mamma's gonna keep baby healthy and clean

 

Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe

 

You'll always be a baby to me

 

Mother, did it need to be so high.

Jackson Browne - Stay

 

Now the seats are all empty

 

Let the roadies take the stage

 

Pack it up and tear it down

 

They're the first to come and the last to leave

 

Working for that minimum wage

 

They're setting up in another town

 

Tonight the people were so fine

 

They waited there in line.

 

And when they got up on their feet,

 

and made the show, and that was sweet.

 

and here the sound of slamming doors and folding chairs

 

and that's a sound they'll never know

 

And load those cases and load those amps

 

and haul those truses up and get'um up those ramps

 

And when it comes to moving me,

 

you know you guys are the champs

 

but when that last guitar has been packed away,

 

you know that I still want to play.

 

So just make sure you got it all set to go

 

before you come for my piano

 

But the band is on the bus,

 

and they're ready to go.

 

We got to drive all night

 

And do the show in Chicago... or Detroit.

 

I don't know, we do so many shows in a row.

 

And these towns all look the same.

 

we just pass the time in the hotel rooms

 

and wander around backstage.

 

Till those lights come up, and we hear that crowd,

 

and remember why we came.

 

Now we got country and western on the bus,

 

R & B, we got disco in 8-tracks and casettes in stereo

 

We've got rural scenes and magazines

 

And we've got truckers on CB

 

We got Richard Pryor on video

 

We've got time to think of the ones we love

 

While the miles roll away

 

but the only time that seems to short is the time that we get to play

 

People you've got the power over what we do

 

or you can sit there and wait

 

or you can come with us too.

 

Come along, sing this song

 

You know that you can't go wrong

 

'Cause when that mornin' sun comes beating down

 

you're gonna wake up in your town

 

And we'll be scheduled to appear

 

a thousand miles away from here

 

People stay just a little bit longer

 

We want to play -- just a little bit longer

 

Now the promoter don't mind

 

And the union don't mind

 

If we take a little time

 

And we leave it all behind and sing

 

One more song

 

Oh won?t you stay just a little bit longer

 

Please, please, please say you will

 

Say you will

 

Oh won?t you stay just a little bit longer

 

Oh please, please stay just a little bit more

 

Now the promoter don?t mind

 

And the roadies don?t mind

 

If we take a little time

 

And we leave this all behind and sing

 

One more song

 

*NEVER FORGOTTEN*

Seems I'm feeling a bit Pink lately.. here's some from Dark side of the Moon

 

Us and Them/Eclipse

 

Pink Floyd

 

Us, and them

 

And after all were only ordinary men.

 

Me, and you.

 

God only knows its noz what we would choose to do.

 

Forward he cried from the rear

 

And the front rank died.

 

And the general sat and the lines on the map

 

Moved from side to side.

 

Black and blue

 

And who knows which is which and who is who.

 

Up and down.

 

But in the end its only round and round.

 

Havent you heard its a battle of words

 

The poster bearer cried.

 

Listen son, said the man with the gun

 

Theres room for you inside.

 

I mean, theyre not gunna kill ya, so if you give em a quick short,

 

Sharp, shock, they wont do it again. dig it? I mean he get off

 

Lightly, cos I wouldve given him a thrashing - I only hit him once!

 

It was only a difference of opinion, but really...i mean good manners

 

Dont cost nothing do they, eh?

 

Down and out

 

It cant be helped but theres a lot of it about.

 

With, without.

 

And wholl deny its what the fightings all about?

 

Out of the way, its a busy day

 

Ive got things on my mind.

 

For the want of the price of tea and a slice

 

The old man died.

 

Eclipse

 

All that you touch

 

All that you see

 

All that you taste

 

All you feel.

 

All that you love

 

All that you hate

 

All you distrust

 

All you save.

 

All that you give

 

All that you deal

 

All that you buy,

 

Beg, borrow or steal.

 

All you create

 

All you destroy

 

All that you do

 

All that you say.

 

All that you eat

 

And everyone you meet

 

All that you slight

 

And everyone you fight.

 

All that is now

 

All that is gone

 

All thats to come

 

And everything under the sun is in tune

 

But the sun is eclipsed by the moon.

 

There is no dark side of the moon really. matter of fact its all dark.

The Great Gig in the Sky

 

Pink Floyd

 

"And I am not frightened of dying, any time will do, I

 

don't mind. Why should I be frightened of dying?

 

There's no reason for it, you've gotta go sometime."

 

"If you can hear this whispering you are dying."

 

"I never said I was frightened of dying."

 

(Instrumental)

Lets try this version.. that other had crappy sound. Gotta be the best vocal solo ever!

 

Money

 

Pink Floyd

 

Money, get away.

 

Get a good job with good pay and you're okay.

 

Money, it's a gas.

 

Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash.

 

New car, caviar, four star daydream,

 

Think I'll buy me a football team.

 

Money, get back.

 

I'm all right Jack keep your hands off of my stack.

 

Money, it's a hit.

 

Don't give me that do goody good bull****.

 

I'm in the high-fidelity first class traveling set

 

And I think I need a Lear jet.

 

Money, it's a crime.

 

Share it fairly but don't take a slice of my pie.

 

Money, so they say

 

Is the root of all evil today.

 

But if you ask for a raise it's no surprise that they're

 

giving none away.

 

"HuHuh! I was in the right!"

 

"Yes, absolutely in the right!"

 

"I certainly was in the right!"

 

"You was definitely in the right. That geezer was cruising for a

 

bruising!"

 

"Yeah!"

 

"Why does anyone do anything?"

 

"I don't know, I was really drunk at the time!"

 

"I was just telling him, he couldn't get into number 2. He was asking

 

why he wasn't coming up on freely, after I was yelling and

 

screaming and telling him why he wasn't coming up on freely.

 

It came as a heavy blow, but we sorted the matter out"

Can't forget about Wish You Were Here... Great album..

 

Shine on you Crazy Diamond

 

Pink Floyd

 

Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.

 

Shine on you crazy diamond.

 

Now theres a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.

 

Shine on you crazy diamond.

 

You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom, blown on the

 

Steel breeze.

 

Come on you target for faraway laughter, come on you stranger, you legend,

 

You martyr, and shine!

 

Nobody knows where you are, how near or how far.

 

Shine on you crazy diamond.

 

Pile on many more layers and I'll be joining you there.

 

Shine on you crazy diamond.

 

And we'll bask in the shadow of yesterday's triumph,

 

sail on the steel breeze.

 

Come on you boy child, you winner and loser,

 

come on you miner for truth and delusion, and shine

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vyqgjCKm9nQ]YouTube - Pink Floyd "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" Syd Barrett Tribute[/ame]

 

Wish you were Here

 

Pink Floyd

 

So, so you think you can tell

 

Heaven from Hell,

 

Blue skies from pain.

 

Can you tell a green field

 

From a cold steel rail?

 

A smile from a veil?

 

Do you think you can tell?

 

Did they get you to trade

 

Your heroes for ghosts?

 

Hot ashes for trees?

 

Hot air for a cool breeze?

 

Cold comfort for change?

 

Did you exchange

 

A walk on part in the war,

 

For a lead role in a cage?

 

How I wish, how I wish you were here.

 

We're just two lost souls

 

Swimming in a fish bowl,

 

Year after year,

 

Running over the same old ground.

 

What have we found

 

The same old fears.

 

Wish you were here.

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXdNnw99-Ic]YouTube - Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here[/ame]

 

Welcome to the Machine

 

Pink Floyd

 

Welcome my son, welcome to the machine.

 

Where have you been? its alright we know where youve been.

 

Youve been in the pipeline, filling in time, provided with toys and

 

scouting for boys.

 

You bought a guitar to punish your ma,

 

And you didnt like school, and you know youre nobodys fool,

 

So welcome to the machine.

 

Welcome my son, welcome to the machine.

 

What did you dream? its alright we told you what to dream.

 

You dreamed of a big star, he played a mean guitar,

 

He always ate in the steak bar. he loved to drive in his jaguar.

 

So welcome to the machine.

Have a Cigar

 

Pink Floyd

 

Come in here, dear boy, have a cigar. youre gonna go far, fly high,

 

Youre never gonna die, youre gonna make it if you try;theyre gonna love you.

 

Well Ive always had a deep respect, and I mean that most sincerely.

 

The band is just fantastic, that is really what I think. oh by the way,

 

Which ones pink?

 

And did we tell you the name of the game, boy, we call it riding the

 

Gravy train.

 

Were just knocked out. we heard about the sell out. you gotta get an

 

Album out,

 

You owe it to the people. were so happy we can hardly count.

 

Everybody else is just green, have you seen the chart?

 

Its a helluva start, it could be made into a monster if we all pull together

 

As a team.

 

And did we tell you the name of the game, boy, we call it riding the

 

Gravy train.

Lines on my face

 

Peter Frampton

 

Lines on my head from that one thing she said

 

She spoke of strangers that don't sleep two a bed

 

Kept on trying, buying time,not waiting on fate

 

I somehow got the feeling that I opened my eyes too late

 

I saw where you came from

 

Called out your name

 

But there's no answer

 

We lived on your doorstep

 

I made you my wife but I don't need that

 

Lines on my face,while I laugh lest I cry

 

Speed city dirt and gritty waving me goodbye

 

So many people,my family of friends

 

Trying so hard to make me smile untill this heartache mends

 

I saw where you came from

 

called out your name

 

but there's no answer

 

We lived on your doorstep

 

I made you my wife but I don't need that

 

Ice in her eyes,frozen tears would never be a surprise

 

You can't erase a dream you can only wake me up

 

My mind is turning slower,never to accept defeat

 

It don't matter where I live I still got a house to heat

 

I saw where you came from

 

called out your name

 

but there's no answer

 

We lived on your doorstep

 

I made you my wife but I don't need that

Dog and Butterfly

 

Heart

 

There I was with the old man

 

Stranded again so off Id ran

 

A young world crashing around me

 

No possibilities of getting what I need

 

He looked at me and smiled

 

Said no, no, no, no, no child.

 

See the dog and butterfly. up in the

 

Air he like to fly. dog and butterfly

 

Below she had to try. she roll back down

 

To the warm soft ground laughing

 

She dont know why, she dont know why

 

Dog and butterfly

 

Well I stumbled upon your secret place

 

Safe in the trees you had tears on your face

 

Wrestling with your desires frozen strangers

 

Stealing your fires. the message hit my mind

 

Only words that I could find

 

See the dog and butterfly

 

Up in the air he like to fly

 

Dog and butterfly below she had to try

 

She roll back down to the warm soft ground

 

Laughing to the sky, up to the sky

 

Dog and butterfly

 

Were getting older the worlds getting colder

 

For the life of me I dont know the reason why

 

Maybe its livin making us give in

 

Hearts rolling in taken back on the tide

 

Were balanced together ocean upon the sky

 

Another night in this strange town

 

Moonlight holding me light as down

 

Voice of confusion inside of me

 

No begging to go back where Im free

 

Feels like Im through

 

Then the old mans words are true

 

See the dog and butterfly

 

Up in the air he like to fly

 

Dog and butterfly, below she had to try

 

She roll back down to the warm soft

 

Ground with a little tear in her eye

 

She had to try, she had to try

 

Dog and butterfly

Soul of the Sea

 

Heart

 

Today you looked around to my heart's call

 

This tiny life ain't been strangled after all

 

Time, time, time, time

 

Never ask what's become of us

 

Just dedicate your sorrow

 

Here and now

 

To the soul of the sea

 

And me

 

Rushin' to me

 

You turned around to my song's call

 

You dreamer in the sand

 

Just lie there laughing til the fall

 

Kindest lover

 

I can't stay alone tonight

 

Bring me all your love

 

Here and now

 

Come rushin' to me

 

Wake up late

 

Without a smile

 

Telephone rings

 

You run like a child

 

On the street

 

Into the day

 

The people I meet

 

Have nothing to say

 

No smile

 

No sorrow

 

No laughter

 

No tomorrow

 

They talk hen to hen

 

They talk about their men

 

And practice all the tricks for them

 

Too soon nightime's coming on

 

Deep in the darkness feeling alone

 

No rain

 

No seed

 

No dreams

 

No silence

 

Far away today

 

Mama ocean hold me to you

 

Rock me on your waves

 

And tell me...

 

Is it all true?

 

Time, time, time, time

 

Never ask what's become of us

 

Dedicate your sorrow

 

Here and now

 

To the soul the sea and me

Crazy on you

 

Heart

 

If we still have time, we might still get by

 

Every time I think about it, I wanna cry

 

With bombs and the devil, and the kids keep comin'

 

No way to breathe easy, no time to be young

 

But I tell myself that I was doin' all right

 

There's nothin' left to do at night

 

But to go crazy on you

 

Crazy on you

 

Let me go crazy, crazy on you, oh

 

My love is the evenin' breeze touchin' your skin

 

The gentle, sweet singin' of leaves in the wind

 

The whisper that calls after you in the night

 

And kisses your ear in the early moonlight

 

And you don't need to wonder, you're doing fine

 

My love, the pleasure's mine

 

Let me go crazy on ya

 

Crazy on you

 

Let me go crazy, crazy on you, ohhh

 

Wild man's world is cryin' in pain

 

What you gonna do when everybody's insane

 

So afraid of one who's so afraid of you

 

What you gonna do...ohhh...

 

(Ah-ah-ah-ah)

 

Ooooo...Crazy on ya

 

Crazy on you

 

Let me go crazy, crazy on you

 

I was a willow last night in my dream

 

I bent down over a clear running stream

 

Sang you the song that I heard up above

 

And you kept me alive with your sweet flowing love

 

Crazy

 

Yeah, crazy on ya

 

Let me go crazy, crazy on you, oh

 

Crazy on ya

 

Crazy on you

 

Let me go crazy, crazy on you, yeah

 

(Ah-ah-ah-ah)

 

Crazy on ya

 

Crazy on you

 

Let me go crazy, crazy on you, ohhh...

Barracuda

 

Heart

 

So this aint the end -

 

I saw you again today

 

I had to turn my heart away

 

Smiled like the sun -

 

Kisses for real

 

And tales - it never fails!

 

You lying so low in the weeds

 

I bet you gonna ambush me

 

Youd have me down down down down on my knees

 

Now wouldnt you, barracuda?

 

Back over time we were all

 

Trying for free

 

You met the porpoise and me

 

No right no wrong, selling a song-

 

A name, whisper game.

 

If the real thing dont do the trick

 

You better make up something quick

 

You gonna burn burn burn burn it to the wick

 

Ooooooh, barracuda?

 

Sell me sell you the porpoise said

 

Dive down deep down to save my head

 

You...i think you got the blues too.

 

All that night and all the next

 

Swam without looking back

 

Made for the western pools - silly fools!

 

If the real thing dont do the trick

 

No, you better make up something quick

 

You gonna burn burn burn burn it to the wick

 

Ooooooohhhh, barra barracuda.

 

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh.

Heart - Dreamboat Annie

 

Heading out this morning into the sun

 

Riding on the diamond waves, little darlin' one

 

Warm wind caress her

 

Her lover it seems

 

Oh, annie

 

Dreamboat annie my little ship of dreams

 

Going down the city sidewalk alone in the crowd

 

No one knows the lonely one whose head's in the clouds

 

Sad faces painted over with those magazine smiles

 

Heading out to somewhere won't be back for a while

Heart - Magic Man

 

Cold, late night so long ago

 

When I was not so strong you know

 

A pretty man came to me

 

I never seen eyes so blue

 

You know, I could not run away it seemed

 

We'd seen each other in a dream

 

Seemed like he knew me....he looked right through me....yeah

 

"Come on home, girl" he said with a smile

 

"you don't have to love me yet, let's get high awhile

 

But try to understand...try to understand

 

Try, try, try to understand.....He's a magic man"

 

Winter nights we sang in tune

 

Played inside the months of moon

 

"Never think of never..let this spell last forever"

 

Well, summer lover passed to fall

 

Tried to realize it all

 

Mama says she's worried..growing up in a hurry

 

"Come on home, girl" Mama cried on the phone

 

"Too soon to lose my baby yet, my girl should be at home"

 

But try to understand....try to understand

 

Try, try, try to understand..he's a magic man, Mama...ah...he's a magic man

 

"Come on home, girl" he said with a smile

 

"I cast my spell of love on you, a woman from a child"

 

But try to understand...try to understand..

 

Oh...oh....try, try, try to understand....

 

He's a magic man....oh....he's got the magic hands

 

(solos) OoooOooo's over top

 

"Come on home, girl" he said with a smile

 

"You don't have to love me yet, let's get high awhile"

 

But try to understand....try to understand

 

Try, try, try to understand...he's a magic man.....yeah...oh......

One of the consequences of such notions as "entitlements" is that people who have contributed nothing to society feel that society owes them something, apparently just for being nice enough to grace us with their presence.? ~ Thomas Sowell

Janis Joplin - Cry baby Cry

 

Cry BabyCry baby, cry baby, cry baby,

 

Honey, welcome back home.

 

I know she told you,

 

Honey I know she told you that she loved you

 

Much more than I did,

 

But all I know is that she left you,

 

And you swear that you just don't know why,

 

But you know, honey I'll always,

 

I'll always be around if you ever want me

 

Come on and cry, cry baby, cry baby, cry baby,

 

Oh honey, welcome back home.

 

Don't you know, honey,

 

Ain't nobody ever gonna love you

 

The way I try to do ?

 

Who'll take all your pain,

 

Honey, your heartache, too ?

 

And if you need me, you know

 

That I'll always be around if you ever want me

 

Come on and cry, cry baby, cry baby, cry baby,

 

Oh daddy, like you always saying to do.

 

And when you walk around the world, babe,

 

You said you'd try to look for the end of the road,

 

You might find out later that the road'll end in Detroit,

 

Honey, the road'll even end in Kathmandu.

 

You can go all around the world

 

Trying to find something to do with your life, baby,

 

When you only gotta do one thing well,

 

You only gotta do one thing well to make it in this world, babe.

 

You got a woman waiting for you there,

 

All you ever gotta do is be a good man one time to one woman

 

And that'll be the end of the road, babe,

 

I know you got more tears to share, babe,

 

So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on,

 

And cry, cry baby, cry baby, cry baby.

 

And if you ever feel a little lonely, dear,

 

I want you to come on, come on to your mama now,

 

And if you ever want a little love of a woman

 

Come on and baby baby baby babe babe baby now

 

Cry baby yeah.

Janis Joplin - Piece of My Heart

 

Album: Cheap Thrills

 

Year: 1968

 

Title: Piece of My Heart Print

 

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

 

Didn’t I make you feel like you were the only man —yeah!

 

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, I cry all the time!

 

And 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.

JANIS JOPLIN - Me and Bobby Mcgee

 

Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waiting for a train

 

And I's feeling nearly as faded as my jeans.

 

Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained,

 

It rode us all the way to New Orleans.

 

I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandanna,

 

I was playing soft while Bobby sang the blues.

 

Windshield wipers slapping time, I was holding Bobby's hand in mine,

 

We sang every song that driver knew.

 

Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose,

 

Nothing don't mean nothing honey if it ain't free, now now.

 

And feeling good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues,

 

You know feeling good was good enough for me,

 

Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee.

 

From the Kentucky coal mines to the California sun,

 

Hey, Bobby shared the secrets of my soul.

 

Through all kinds of weather, through everything that we done,

 

Hey Bobby baby kept me from the cold.

 

One day up near Salinas, Lord, I let him slip away,

 

He's looking for that home and I hope he finds it,

 

But I'd trade all of my tomorrows for one single yesterday

 

To be holding Bobby's body next to mine.

 

Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose,

 

Nothing, that's all that Bobby left me, yeah,

 

But feeling good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues,

 

Hey, feeling good was good enough for me, hmm hmm,

 

Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee.

 

La la la, la la la la, la la la, la la la la

 

La la la la la Bobby McGee.

 

La la la la la, la la la la la

 

La la la la la, Bobby McGee, la.

 

La La la, la la la la la la,

 

La La la la la la la la la, hey now Bobby now Bobby McGee yeah.

 

Na na na na na na na na, na na na na na na na na na na na

 

Hey now Bobby now, Bobby McGee, yeah.

 

Lord, I'm calling my lover, calling my man,

 

I said I'm calling my lover just the best I can,

 

C'mon, where is Bobby now, where is Bobby McGee, yeah,

 

Lordy Lordy Lordy Lordy Lordy Lordy Lordy Lord

 

Hey, hey, hey, Bobby McGee, Lord!

 

Yeah! Whew!

 

Lordy Lordy Lordy Lordy Lordy Lordy Lordy Lord

 

Hey, hey, hey, Bobby McGee.

One of the consequences of such notions as "entitlements" is that people who have contributed nothing to society feel that society owes them something, apparently just for being nice enough to grace us with their presence.? ~ Thomas Sowell

Kick it Out

 

Heart

 

Out of the street - get on home

 

Tail shaking filly running on her own

 

They say she got loose on the night

 

She was born

 

Cranking it up in a school zone

 

Kick it out - kick it out, she said

 

Kick out your motor and drive

 

While youre still alive - kick it out!

 

Sitting in a bar in a seaside town

 

Sweet little love getting high getting down

 

Sailors see her running along the beach

 

Laugh and jump out of reach

 

Wild music blowing in her mane

 

She needs a bareback rider wont give her

 

No pain

 

A hard racy game of give and take

 

Leaves them dazed - half crazed- in her wake

 

Kick it out - kick it out, she said

 

Kick out your motor and drive

 

While youre still alive - kick it out!

Heartless

 

Heart

 

The doctor said come back again next week, I think that you need me.

 

All she did was cry

 

She wanted to die

 

Doctor when can you see me?

 

Theres a guy out there! seems like hes everywhere!

 

It just aint fair!

 

Heartless-heartless! never out of control

 

Heartless-heartless! sin in the name of rock and roll

 

Heartless-heartless! he thinks its so cool to be cold

 

Never realize the way love dies when you crucify its soul

 

Late night in the penthouse room, the fire is burning

 

Shadows are warm, laying in his arms she answers his yearning

 

Her eyes are filled with sand

 

Heartless-heartless! never out of control

 

Heartless-heartless! sin in the name of rock and roll

 

Heartless-heartless! he thinks its so cool to be cold

 

Never realize the way love dies when you crucify its soul

Tina Turner - Proud Mary

 

Y' know, every now and then

 

I think you might like to hear something from us

 

Nice and easy

 

But there's just one thing

 

You see we never ever do nothing

 

Nice and easy

 

We always do it nice and rough

 

So we're gonna take the beginning of this song

 

And do it easy

 

Then we're gonna do the finish rough

 

This is the way we do "Proud Mary"

 

And we're rolling, rolling, rolling on the river

 

Listen to the story

 

I left a good job in the city

 

Working for the man every night and day

 

And I never lost one minute of sleeping

 

Worrying 'bout the way things might have been

 

Big wheel keep on turning

 

Proud mary keep on burning

 

And we?re rolling, rolling

 

Rolling on the river

 

Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis

 

Pumped a lot of tane down in New Orleans

 

But I never saw the good side of the city

 

Till I hitched a ride on a riverboat queen

 

Big wheel keep on turning

 

Proud mary keep on burning

 

And we?re rolling, rolling

 

Rolling on the river

 

If you come down to the river

 

I bet you gonna find some people who live

 

You don?t have to worry if you got no money

 

People on the river are happy to give

Jesus Christ Pose

 

Soundgarden

 

And you stare at me

 

In your jesus christ pose

 

Arms held out

 

Like youve been carrying a load

 

And you swear to me

 

You dont want to be my slave

 

But youre staring at me

 

Like I need to be saved

 

In your jesus christ pose

 

Arms held out

 

In your jesus christ pose

 

Thorns and shroud

 

Like its the coming of the lord

 

And I swear to you

 

That I would never feed you pain

 

But youre staring at me

 

Like Im driving the nails

 

In your jesus christ pose

 

And you stare at me

 

In your jesus christ pose

 

Arms held out like its

 

The coming of the lord

 

And would it pay you more to walk on water

 

Than to wear a crown of thorns

 

It wouldnt pain me more to bury you rich

 

Than to bury you poor

 

In your jesus christ pose

Black Hole Sun

 

Soundgarden

 

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 Ill hear you

 

Scream again

 

Black hole sun

 

Wont you come

 

And wash away the rain

 

Black hole sun

 

Wont you come

 

Wont 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

Fell on Black Days

 

Soundgarden

 

Whatsoever I've feared has come to life

 

Whatsoever I've fought off became my life

 

Just when everyday seemed to greet me with a smile

 

Sunspots have faded

 

And now I'm doing time

 

Cause I fell on black days

 

Whomsoever I've cured Ive sickened now

 

Whomsoever I've cradled Ive put you down

 

Im a search light soul they say

 

But I cant see it in the night

 

Im only faking when I get it right

 

Cause I fell on black days

 

How would I know

 

That this could be my fate

 

So what you wanted to see good has made you blind

 

And what you wanted to be yours has made it mine

 

So dont you lock up something that you wanted to see fly

 

Hands are for shaking

 

No, not tying

 

No, not tying

 

I sure dont mind a change

 

But I fell on black days

 

How would I know

 

That this could be my fate

Pretty Noose

 

Soundgarden

 

I caught the moon today

 

Pick it up

 

And throw it away all right

 

I got the perfect steal

 

A cleaner love

 

With a dirty feel all right

 

Fallout and take the bait

 

Eat the fruit

 

And kiss the snake goodnight

 

Common ruse dirty face

 

Pretty noose is pretty hate

 

And I dont like

 

What you got me hanging from

 

Let your motor race

 

Pick it up

 

And get this mother gone

 

Out from and far away

 

The wooden stake

 

This thing has got me on

 

Diamond rope silver chain

 

Pretty noose is pretty pain

 

And I dont like

 

What you got me hanging from

 

I dont care what you got

 

I dont care what you need

 

I dont want anything

 

And I dont like what

 

You got me hanging from

Rusty Cage

 

Soundgarden

 

You wired me awake

 

And hit me with a hand of broken nails

 

You tied my lead and pulled my chain

 

To watch my blood begin to boil

 

But Im gonna break

 

Im gonna break my

 

Im gonna break my rusty cage and run

 

Too cold to start a fire

 

Im burning diesel burning dinosaur bones

 

Ill take the river down to still water

 

And ride a pack of dogs

 

Im gonna break

 

Im gonna break my

 

Im gonna break my rusty cage and run

 

Hits like a phillips head

 

Into my brain

 

Its gonna be too dark

 

To sleep again

 

Cutting my teeth on bars

 

And rusty chains, Im gonna break my

 

Rusty cage and run

 

When the forest burns

 

Along the road

 

Like gods eyes

 

In my headlights

 

When the dogs are looking

 

For their bones

 

And its raining icepicks

 

On your steel shore

 

Im gonna break

 

Im gonna break my

 

Im gonna break my rusty cage and run

The Day I Tried to Live

 

Soundgarden

 

Special Offer

 

Download Soundgarden Ringtones Now!I woke the same as any other day

 

Except a voice was in my head

 

It said seize the day, pull the trigger

 

Drop the blade, and watch the rolling heads

 

The day I tried to live

 

I stole a thousand beggars change

 

And gave it to the rich

 

The day I tried to win

 

I dangled from the power lines

 

And let the martyrs stretch

 

Singing

 

One more time around might do it

 

One more time around might make it

 

One more time around might do it

 

One more time around

 

The day I tried to live

 

Words you say never seem

 

To live up to the ones inside your head

 

The lives we make never seem

 

To ever get us anywhere but dead

 

The day I tried to live

 

I wallowed in the blood and mud with

 

All the other pigs

 

I woke the same as any other day you know

 

I should have stayed in bed

 

The day I tried to win

 

I wallowed in the blood and mud with

 

All the other pigs

 

And I learned that I was a liar

 

Just like you

Fire and Rain

 

James Taylor

 

Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone

 

Susanne the plans they made put an end to you

 

I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song

 

I just cant remember who to send it to

 

Ive seen fire and Ive seen rain

 

Ive seen sunny days that I thought would never end

 

Ive seen lonely times when I could not find a friend

 

But I always thought that Id see you again

 

Wont you look down upon me, jesus

 

Youve got to help me make a stand

 

Youve just got to see me through another day

 

My bodys aching and my time is at hand

 

And I wont make it any other way

 

Oh, Ive seen fire and Ive seen rain

 

Ive seen sunny days that I thought would never end

 

Ive seen lonely times when I could not find a friend

 

But I always thought that Id see you again

 

Been walking my mind to an easy time my back turned towards the sun

 

Lord knows when the cold wind blows itll turn your head around

 

Well, theres hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things

 

To come

 

Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground

 

Oh, Ive seen fire and Ive seen rain

 

Ive seen sunny days that I thought would never end

 

Ive seen lonely times when I could not find a friend

 

But I always thought that Id see you, baby, one more time again, now

 

Thought Id see you one more time again

 

Theres just a few things coming my way this time around, now

 

Thought Id see you, thought Id see you fire and rain, now

Shower the People

 

James Taylor

 

You can play the game and you can act out the part

 

Though you know it wasnt written for you

 

But tell me, how can you stand there with your broken heart

 

Ashamed of playing the fool

 

One thing can lead to another; it doesnt take any sacrifice

 

Oh, father and mother, sister and brother

 

If it feels nice, dont think twice

 

Just shower the people you love with love

 

Show them the way that you feel

 

Things are gonna work out fine if you only will

 

Shower the people you love with love

 

Show them the way you feel

 

Things are gonna be much better if you only will

 

You can run but you cannot hide

 

This is widely known

 

And what you plan to do with your foolish pride

 

When youre all by yourself alone

 

Once you tell somebody the way that you feel

 

You can feel it beginning to ease

 

I think its true what they say about the squeaky wheel

 

Always getting the grease.

 

Better to shower the people you love with love

 

Show them the way that you feel

 

Things are gonna be just fine if you only will

 

Shower the people you love with love

 

Show them the way that you feel

 

Things are gonna be much better if you only will

 

Shower the people you love with love

 

Show them the way that you feel

 

Youll feel better right away

 

Dont take much to do

 

Sell you pride

 

They say in every life

 

They say the rain must fall

 

Just like pouring rain

 

Make it rain

 

Make it rain

 

Love, love, love is sunshine.

 

Oh yes

 

Make it rain

 

Love, love, love is sunshine

 

Yeah, all right

 

Everybody, everybody

 

Shower the people you love with love

Something in the way she moves

 

James Taylor

 

Something in the way she moves

 

Theres something in the way she moves,

 

Or looks my way, or calls my name,

 

That seems to leave this troubled world behind.

 

If Im feeling down and blue,

 

Or troubled by some foolish game,

 

She always seems to make me change my mind.

 

Chorus:

 

n(and) I feel fine anytime shes around me now,

 

Shes around me now

 

Almost all the time.

 

n(and) if Im well you can tell that shes been with me now,

 

n(and) shes been with me now

 

Quite a long, long time

 

And I feel fine.___________

 

Every now and then the things I lean on lose their meaning,

 

And I find myself careening

 

Into places where I should not let me go.

 

-- she has the power to go where no one else can find me,

 

Yes, and to silently remind me

 

Of the happiness and good times that I know, you know.

 

Well I said I just got to know that:

 

It isnt what shes got to say

 

Or how she thinks or where shes been.

 

To me, the words are nice, the way they sound.

 

I like to hear them best that way -

 

It doesnt much matter what they mean,

 

Weh (when/well? ) she says them mostly just to calm me down.

 

Chorus:

 

n(and) I feel fine anytime shes around me now,

 

A-shes around me now

 

Almost all the time.

 

If Im well you can tell that shes been with me now,

 

And shes been with me now

 

Quite a long,

 

Long

 

Time -

 

Yes, and I feel fine.___________

Sweet baby James

 

James Taylor

 

There is a young cowboy he lives on the range

 

His horse and his cattle are his only companions

 

He works in the saddle and he sleeps in the canyons

 

Waiting for summer, his pastures to change

 

And as the moon rises he sits by his fire

 

Thinking about women and glasses of beer

 

And closing his eyes as the doggies retire

 

He sings out a song which is soft but its clear

 

As if maybe someone could hear

 

(chorus)

 

Goodnight you moonlight ladies

 

Rockabye sweet baby james

 

Deep greens and blues are the colors I choose

 

Wont you let me go down in my dreams

 

And rockabye sweet baby james

 

Now the first of december was covered with snow

 

And so was the turnpike from stockbridge to boston

 

Lord, the berkshires seemed dream-like on account of that frosting

 

With ten miles behind me and ten thousand more to go

 

Theres a song that they sing when they take to the highway

 

A song that they sing when they take to the sea

 

A song that they sing of their home in the sky

 

Maybe you can believe it if it helps you to sleep

 

But singing works just fine for me

Tightrope

 

Stevie Ray Vaughan

 

Caught up in a whirlwind cant catch my breath

 

Knee deep in hot water broke out in a cold sweat

 

Cant catch a turtle in this rat race

 

Feels like Im losin time at a breakneck pace

 

Afraid of my own shadow in the face of grace

 

Heart full of darkness spotlight on my face

 

There was love all around me but I was lookin for revenge

 

Thank God it never found me would have been the end

 

(I was) walkin the tightrope steppin on my friends

 

Walkin the tightrope (it) was a shame and a sin

 

Walkin the tightrope between wrong and right

 

Walkin the tightrope both day and night

 

Lookin back in front of me in the mirrors a grin

 

Through eyes of love I see Im really lookin at a friend

 

Weve all had our problems thats the way life is

 

My heart goes out to others who are there to make amends

 

Weve been walkin the tightrope tryin to make it right

 

Walkin the tightrope every day and every night

 

Walkin the tightrope bring it all around

 

Walkin the tightrope from the lost to found

 

Walkin the tightrope stretched around the world

 

Walkin the tightrope save the boys and girls

 

Walkin the tightrope lets make it right

 

Walkin the tightrope do it do it tonight

 

Walkin the tightrope

Julie Brown - Home comming queen's got a Gun

 

"It was Homecoming Night at my high school

 

Everyone was there, it was totally cool

 

I was real excited, I almost wet my jeans

 

'Cause my best friend Debbie was Homecoming Queen

 

She looked so pretty in pink chiffon. (Chiffon)

 

Riding the float with her tiara on. (Tiara on)

 

Holding this humongous bouquet in her hand. (Bouquet)

 

She looked straight out of Disneyland!

 

You know that Cinderella ride

 

I mean definitely an E-ticket. (E-ticket)

 

The crowd was cheering, everyone was stoked

 

I mean it was like the whole school was totally coked or something.

 

The band was playing 'Evergreen'

 

Then all of a sudden, somebody screamed:

 

Look out! The Homecoming Queen's got a GUN!!!

 

Everybody run, the Homecoming Queen's got a gun!

 

Everybody run, the Homecoming Queen has got a gun!

 

Debbie's smiling, and waving her gun

 

Picking off cheerleaders one by one

 

Oh! Buffy's pom poms just blew to bits

 

Oh no, Misty?s head just did the splits!

 

My best friend is on a shooting spree

 

Stop it, Debbie, you're embarrassing me!

 

How could you do what you just did

 

Are you having a really bad period?

 

Everybody run, the Homecoming Queen's got a gun!

 

Everybody run, the Homecoming Queen has got a gun!

 

Stop it, Debbie, you're making a mess

 

Powder burns all over your dress

 

An hour later, ,the cops had arrived

 

By then the entire glee club had died - no big loss

 

You wouldn't believe what they brought to stop her

 

Tear gas, machine guns... even a chopper!

 

Throw down your gun and tiara and come out of that float!

 

Debbie didn't listen to what the cop said,

 

She aimed and fired, and now the math teacher's dead!

 

Oh, it's really sad, but kinda of a relief,

 

I mean we had this big test coming up next week...

 

Everybody run, the Homecoming Queen's got a gun!

 

Everybody run, the Homecoming Queen has got a gun!

 

Debbie's really having a blast!

 

She's wasting half of the class!

 

The cops fired a warning shot that blew her off that float.

 

I tried to scream Duck! but it stuck in my throat.

 

She hit the ground and did a flip; it was real acrobatic.

 

But I was crying so hard, I couldn't work my Instamatic.

 

I ran down to Debbie, I had to find out.

 

What made her do it, why'd she freak out?

 

I saw the bullet had got her right in the ear.

 

I knew then... the end was near.

 

So I ran down and said in her good ear.

 

Debbie, why?d you do it?

 

She raised her head and smiled and said.

 

I did it for Johnny.

 

Johnny, well like who's Johnny? Answer me Debbie who's Johnny.

 

Does anybody here know a Johnny?

 

Are you Johnny? There was one guy named Johnny.

 

But he was a total geek. He always had food in his braces.

 

Answer me Debbie who's Johnny.

 

Oh God this is like that movie Citizen Kane

 

You know where you later find out Rosebud was a sled

 

But we?ll never know who Johnny is because like she?s dead

 

Everybody run, the Homecoming Queen?s got a gun!

 

Everybody run, the Homecoming Queen has got a

 

Everybody run

 

Everybody run the Homecoming Queen?s got a"

NORMAN GREENBAUM SPIRT IN THE SKY LYRICS

 

When I die and they lay me to rest

 

Gonna go to the place that's the best

 

When I lay me down to die

 

Goin' up to the spirit in the sky

 

Goin' up to the spirit in the sky

 

That's where I'm gonna go when I die

 

When I die and they lay me to rest

 

Gonna go to the place that's the best

 

Prepare yourself you know it's a must

 

Gotta have a friend in Jesus

 

So you know that when you die

 

He's gonna recommend you

 

To the spirit in the sky

 

Gonna recommend you

 

To the spirit in the sky

 

That's where you're gonna go when you die

 

When you die and they lay you to rest

 

You're gonna go to the place that's the best

 

Never been a sinner I never sinned

 

I got a friend in Jesus

 

So you know that when I die

 

He's gonna set me up with

 

The spirit in the sky

 

Oh set me up with the spirit in the sky

 

That's where I'm gonna go when I die

 

When I die and they lay me to rest

 

I'm gonna go to the place that's the best

 

Go to the place that's the best

New York State of Mind

 

Billy Joel

 

Some folks like to get away, take a holiday from the neighborhood

 

Hop a flight to miami beach or hollywood.

 

Im taking a greyhound on the hudson river line-

 

Im in a new york state of mind.

 

I seen all the movie stars in their fancy cars and their limousines,

 

Been high in the rockies under the evergreens,

 

But I know what Im needing and I dont want to waste more time-

 

Im in a new york state of mind.

 

It was so easy living day by day

 

Out of touch with the rhythm and the blues,

 

But now I need a little give and take,

 

The new york times, the daily news...

 

It comes down to reality-and its fine with me cause Ive let it slide,

 

Dont care if its chinatown or riverside,

 

I dont have any reasons, Ive left them all behind-

 

Im in a new york state of mind.

 

Repeat 3rd verse

 

Im just taking a greyhound on the hudson river line-

 

cause Im in a new york state of mind.

New York Minute

 

Eagles

 

Harry got up

 

Dressed all in black

 

Went down to the station

 

And he never came back

 

They found his clothing

 

Scattered somewhere down the track

 

And he won’t be down on wall street

 

In the morning

 

He had a home

 

The love of a girl

 

But men get lost sometimes

 

As years unfold

 

One day he crossed some line

 

And he was too much in this world

 

But I guess it doesn’t matter anymore

 

In a new york minute

 

Everything can change

 

In a new york minute

 

Things can get pretty strange

 

In a new york minute

 

Everything can change

 

In a new york minute

 

Lying here in the darkness

 

I hear the sirens wail

 

Somebody going to emergency

 

Somebody’s going to jail

 

If you find somebody to love in this world

 

You better hand on tooth and nail

 

The wolf is always at the door

 

In a new york minute

 

Everything can change

 

In a new york minute

 

Things can get a little strange

 

In a new york minute

 

Everything can change

 

In a new york minute

 

And in these days

 

When darkness falls early

 

And people rush home

 

To the ones they love

 

You better take a fool’s advice

 

And tak care of your own

 

One day they’re here;

 

Next day they’re gone

 

I pulled my coat around my shoulders

 

And took a walk down through the park

 

The leaves were falling around me

 

The groaning city in the gathering dark

 

On some solitary rock

 

A desperate lover left his mark,

 

’baby, I’ve changed. please come back.’

 

What the head makes cloudy

 

The heart makes very clear

 

The days were so much brighter

 

In the time when she was here

 

But I know there’s somebody somewhere

 

Make these dark clouds disappear

 

Until that day, I have to believe

 

I believe, I believe

 

In a new york minute

 

Everything can change

 

In a new york minute

 

You can get out of the rain

 

In a new york minute

 

Everything can change

 

In a new york minute

This song always reminds me of 9/11

 

R.I.P. Brothers and sisters. Never forgotten, always forgiven.

 

I'm sick in mind and spirit, the mirror tells me lies ~ Ozzy

Let me help you with your "New York" theme...

 

New York Groove - KISS (Ace Frehley Album)

 

Many years since I was here, on the street I was passin' my time away

 

To the left and to the right, buildings towering to the sky

 

It's outta sight in the dead of night

 

Here I am, and in this city, with a fistful of dollars

 

And baby, you'd better believe

 

Chorus:

 

I'm back, back in the New York Groove

 

I'm back, back in the New York Groove

 

I'm back, back in the New York Groove

 

Back in the New York Groove, in the New York Groove

 

In the back of my Cadillac

 

[New York Groove lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]

 

A wicked lady, sittin' by my side, sayin' 'Where are we?'

 

Stop at Third and Forty-three, exit to the night

 

It's gonna be ecstacy, this place was meant for me

 

Feels so good tonight, who cares about tomorrow

 

So baby, you'd better believe

 

chorus

 

I'm back, back in the New York Groove (repeats out)

New York, New York - Frank Sinatra

 

Start spreading the news, I'm leaving today

 

I want to be a part of it - New York, New York

 

These vagabond shoes, are longing to stray

 

Right through the very heart of it - New York, New York

 

I want to wake up in a city, that doesn't sleep

 

And find I'm king of the hill - top of the heap

 

These little town blues, are melting away

 

I'm gonna make a brand new start of it - in old New York

 

If I can make it there, I'll make it anywhere

 

[New York, New York lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]

 

It's up to you - New York, New York

 

New York, New York

 

I want to wake up in a city, that never sleeps

 

To find I'm a number one, top of the list,

 

Cream of the crop at the top of the heap.

 

These little town blues, are melting away

 

I'm gonna make a brand new start of it - in old New York

 

If I can make it there, I'm gonna make it anywhere

 

It's up to you - New York, New York
