Fragile

 

Sting

 

If blood will flow when fresh and steel are one

 

Drying in the colour of the evening sun

 

Tomorrows rain will wash the stains away

 

But something in our minds will always stay

 

Perhaps this final act was meant

 

To clinch a lifetimes argument

 

That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could

 

For all those born beneath an angry star

 

Lest we forget how fragile we are

 

On and on the rain will fall

 

Like tears from a star like tears from a star

 

On and on the rain will say

 

How fragile we are how fragile we are

 

On and on the rain will fall

 

Like tears from a star like tears from a star

 

On and on the rain will say

 

How fragile we are how fragile we are

 

How fragile we are how fragile we are

Voodoo Chile

 

Kenny Wayne Shepherd

 

Doing a Hendrix cover.. nice

 

Well, I stand up next to a mountain

 

And I chop it down with the edge of my hand.

 

Well, I stand up next to a mountain,

 

Chop it down with the edge of my hand.

 

Well, I pick up all the pieces and make an island,

 

Might even raise just a little sand.

Lord knows Im a voodoo chile, baby.

 

I didnt mean to take up all your sweet time,

 

Ill give it right back to you one of these days.

 

I said I didnt mean to take up all your sweet time,

 

Ill give it right back one of these days.

 

And if I dont meet you no more in this world

 

Then ill, Ill meet you in the next one and dont be late, dont be late.

 

cause Im a voodoo chile, voodoo chile,

 

Lord knows Im a voodoo chile, hey hey hey.

Born with a Broken Heart

 

K.Wayne Shepherd

 

Up from the ashes, out of the flames

 

Keeps gettin' stronger, like a slow rollin' train

 

Watch it run

 

Oh, why do the good die young

 

Burnin' like a shootin' star

 

Born with a broken heart

 

Off in the distance, it was callin' my name

 

So I took me a ride, on that slow rollin' train

 

It still runs

 

But it seems that the good die young

 

Playin' on that sad guitar

 

Born with a broken heart

 

Burnin' like a shootin' star

 

Born with a broken heart

 

Seems it was over, before it begun

 

Killed by a bullet, from a six-string gun

 

Bang a drum

 

Oh, why do the good die young

 

Ridin' in a long black car

 

Born with a broken heart

 

Playin' on that sad guitar

 

Born with a broken heart

 

Burnin' like a shootin' star

 

Born with a broken heart

Wicked Game

 

Chris Isaak

 

The world was on fire and no one could save me but you.

 

It's strange what desire will make foolish people do.

 

I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you.

 

And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you.

 

No, I don't want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)

 

No, I don't want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)

 

With you (This world is only gonna break your heart)

 

What a wicked game to play, to make me feel this way.

 

What a wicked thing to do, to let me dream of you.

 

What a wicked thing to say, you never felt this way.

 

What a wicked thing to do, to make me dream of you and,

 

I want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)

 

No, I want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)

 

With you.

 

The world was on fire and no one could save me but you.

 

It's strange what desire will make foolish people do.

 

I never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you.

 

And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you,

 

No, I want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)

 

No, I want to fall in love (This world is only gonna break your heart)

 

With you (This world is only gonna break your heart)

 

No, I... (This world is only gonna break your heart)

 

(This world is only gonna break your heart)

 

Nobody loves no one.

Icky Thump

 

White Stripes

 

Yah-hee, icky thump

 

Who'd-a thunk?

 

Sittin' drunk

 

On a wagon to Mexico

 

Her hair, what a chump

 

And my head

 

Got a bump

 

When I hit it on the radio

 

Red-head se?orita

 

Lookin' dead

 

Came to said,

 

"I need a bed" en espa?ol

 

So I gave a drink of water

 

I'm gonna sing around the collar

 

Well, I don't need a microphone

 

[guitar solo]

 

[keyboard solo]

 

Icky thump, with the lump

 

In my throat

 

Grab my coat

 

And now it's reckon

 

I was ready to go

 

Yeah, I swam beside the hair

 

She had one white eye

 

One blank stare

 

Lookin' up, lyin' there

 

On a stand in her hair

 

Was a candy cane

 

Black rum, sugar cane

 

Dry eye, somethin' strange!

 

La la, la la la la la la la la la laaa laaa laaa

 

[keyboard solo]

 

Well, Americans:

 

What, nothin' better to do?

 

Why don't you kick yourself out?

 

You're an immigrant too.

 

Who's usin' who?

 

What should we do?

 

Well you can't be a pimp

 

And a prostitute too

 

Icky thump, handcuffed to a bunk

 

Robbed blind

 

Looked around

 

And there was nobody else

 

Left alone

 

I hit myself with a stone

 

Went home

 

And learned how to clean up after myself

Just the way you are

 

Billy Joel

 

Dont go changing, to try and please me

 

You never let me down before

 

Dont imagine youre too familiar

 

And I dont see you anymore

 

I wouldnt leave you in times of trouble

 

We never could have come this far

 

I took the good times, Ill take the bad times

 

Ill take you just the way you are

 

Dont go trying some new fashion

 

Dont change the color of your hair

 

You always have my unspoken passion

 

Although I might not seem to care

 

I dont 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 thats forever

 

And this I promise from the heart

 

I could not love you any better

 

I love you just the way you are.

She's Always a Women

 

Billy Joel

 

She can kill with a smile

 

She can wound with her eyes

 

She can ruin your faith with her casual lies

 

And she only reveals what she wants you to see

 

She hides like a child

 

But she's always a woman to me

 

She can lead you to live

 

She can take you or leave you

 

She can ask for the truth

 

But she'll never believe you

 

And she'll take what you give her as long as it's free

 

She steals like a thief

 

But she's always a woman to me

 

Oh, she takes care of herself

 

She can wait if she wants

 

She's ahead of her time

 

Oh, and she never gives out

 

And she never gives in

 

She just changes her mind

 

She will promise you more

 

Than the Garden of Eden

 

Then she'll carelessly cut you

 

And laugh while you're bleedin'

 

But she'll bring out the best

 

And the worst you can be

 

Blame it all on yourself

 

Cause she's always a woman to me

 

She is frequently kind

 

And she's suddenly cruel

 

She can do as she pleases

 

She's nobody's fool

 

But she can't be convicted

 

She's earned her degree

 

And the most she will do

 

Is throw shadows at you

 

But she's always a woman to me

You May be Right

 

Billy Joel

 

Friday night I crashed your party

 

Saturday I said Im sorry

 

Sunday came and trashed me out again

 

I was only having fun

 

Wasnt hurting anyone

 

And we all enjoyed the weekend for a change

 

Ive 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 Im insane

 

You may be right

 

I may be crazy

 

But it just may be a lunatic youre looking for

 

Turn out the light

 

Dont 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 Im crazy then its true

 

That its all because of you

 

And you wouldnt want me any other way

 

You may be right

 

I may be crazy

 

But it just may be a lunatic youre looking for

 

Its too late to fight

 

Its 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 youre looking for

 

Turn out the light

 

Dont 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

Into the Mystic

 

Van Morrison

 

We were born before the wind

 

Also younger than the sun

 

Ere the bonnie boat was won as we sailed into the mystic

 

Hark, now hear the sailors cry

 

Smell the sea and feel the sky

 

Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic

 

And when that fog horn blows I will be coming home

 

And when that fog horn blows I want to hear it

 

I dont have to fear it

 

I want to rock your gypsy soul

 

Just like way back in the days of old

 

Then magnificently we will float into the mystic

 

And when that fog horn blows you know I will be coming home

 

And when thst fog horn whistle blows I got to hear it

 

I dont have to fear it

 

I want to rock your gypsy soul

 

Just like way back in the days of old

 

And together we will float into the mystic

 

Come on girl...

Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show - Acapulco Goldie

 

(Hey play the guitars)

 

(I love to hear the guitars play)

 

(Oh I love to sing, I love to sing)

 

She was dancing when I seen her, in a Mexican cantina

 

In a neighbourhood they call La Zona Roja (hahahaha)

 

She had a child's smile, but she told me, in a while

 

It would take a lot of gold to get to know her (Oh)

 

Acapulco Goldie, donde did you go

 

You said you'd always hold me

 

But you run away with me Acapulco gold

 

(Oh that's a terrible thing you did)

 

I knew there's no-one cuter, then she said she was a puta

 

I said What does puta mean? Hmm and so she told me... (Oh no)

 

Then we went to meet a dealer, we smoked and drank tequila

 

Then the lights went out and I guess that's where she rolled me (just like)

 

Acapulco Goldie, por que did you go?

 

You said you'd always hold me

 

But you vamos away with me Acapulco gold

 

Yes, you run away with me Acapulco gold

 

(Oh Goldie)

 

(How can you do these things to me?)

 

(Where's my gun?)

 

(Who took my gun?)

She's Gone

 

Hall & Oats

 

Everybody's high on consolation

 

Everybody's trying to tell me

 

What is right for me, yeah

 

I need a drink and a quick decision

 

Now it's up to me, ooooh what will be

 

[Chorus:]

 

She's gone, she's gone

 

Oh, why

 

Oh, why

 

I better learn how to face it

 

She's gone, she's gone

 

Oh, why

 

Oh, why

 

I'd pay the devil to replace her

 

She's gone, she's gone

 

Oh, why

 

What went wrong

 

Get up in the morning, look in the mirror

 

One less tooth brush hanging in the stand

 

My face ain't looking any younger

 

Now what I can see

 

Love's taken a toll on me

 

[Chorus]

 

Think I'll spend eternity in the city

 

Let the carbon and monoxide choke my thoughts away

 

And pretty bodies help dissolve the memories

 

There can never be what she once was to me

Sara smile

 

Wont you smile a while for me

 

If you feel like leaving you know you can go

 

But why dont you stay until tomorrow?

 

And if you want to be free, all you have to do is say so

 

When you feel cold, Ill warm you

 

And when you feel you cant go on, Ill come and hold you

 

Its you... and me forever

Wont you smile a while for me

That Smell

 

Lenny Skinny

 

Whiskey bottles, and brand new cars

 

Oak tree you're in my way

 

There's too much coke and too much smoke

 

Look what's going on inside you

 

(Chorus)

 

Ooooh that smell

 

Can't you smell that smell

 

Ooooh that smell

 

The smell of death surrounds you

 

Angel of darkness is upon you

 

Stuck a needle in your arm

 

So take another toke, have a blow for your nose

 

One more drink fool, will drown you

 

(Chorus)

 

Ooooh that smell

 

Can't you smell that smell

 

Ooooh that smell

 

The smell of death surrounds you

 

Now they call you Prince Charming

 

Can't speak a word when you're full of 'ludes

 

Say you'll be all right come tomorrow

 

But tomorrow might not be here for you

 

(Chorus)

 

Ooooh that smell

 

Can't you smell that smell

 

Ooooh that smell

 

The smell of death surrounds you

 

Hey, you're a fool you

 

Stick them needles in your arm

 

I know I been there before

 

One little problem that confronts you

 

Got a monkey on your back

 

Just one more fix, Lord might do the trick

 

One hell of a price for you to get your kicks

 

(Chorus x2)

 

Ooooh that smell

 

Can't you smell that smell

 

Ooooh that smell

 

The smell of death surrounds you

 

Ooooh that smell

 

Can't you smell that smell

 

Ooooh that smell

 

The smell of death surrounds you

Ballad of Curtis Loew

 

Lenny Skinny

 

Well I used to wake the morning before the rooster crowed

 

Searching for soda bottles to get myself some dough

 

Brought em down to the corner, down to the country store

 

Cash em in and give my money to a man named curtis loew

 

Old curt was a black man with white curly hair

 

When he had a fifth of wine he did not have a care

 

He used to own an old dobro, used to play it across his knee

 

Id give old curt my money, hed play all day for me

 

(chorus)

 

Play me a song curtis loew, curtis loew

 

I got your drinking money, tune up your dobro

 

People said he was useless, them people are the fools

 

cause curtis loew was the finest picker to ever play the blues

 

He looked to be sixty, and maybe I was ten

 

Mama used to whip me but Id go see him again

 

Id clap my hands, stomp my feets, try to stay in time

 

Hed play me a song or two

 

Then take another drink of wine.

 

Chorus

 

Yes sir

 

On the day old curtis died, nobody came to pray

 

Ol preacher said some words, and they chunked him in the clay

 

But he lived a lifetime playin the black mans blues

 

And on the day he lost his life, thats all he had to lose

 

Play me a song curtis loew, hey curtis loew

 

I wish that you was here so everyone would know

 

People said he was useless, them people all are fools

 

cause curtis youre the finest picker to ever play the blues

So you just courstey, and I'll bow

And I'll just take whats left of me, right bak to where it used to be

 

And you'll go sail your magic carpet far across the sky

 

CHORUS

 

I wish I could have made it more like the movies for ya

Im sorry when i kissed you, you only heard me whisper

 

You never got to hear those violins

 

Did ya girl?

 

No you never got to hear those violins, no

 

The castles that you built so high, were just to steep for me to climb

 

And I guess these dirty streets of mine, were just to rough for you

 

I wish I coulda helped you see

 

Just one of your sweet childhood dreams,

 

But though I tried I could not make not one of them come true

 

CHORUS

 

Ohhhhhhhhhh Im sorry when I kissed you, you only heard me whisper

 

You never got to hear those violins

 

No you never got to hear those violins

When your body's had enough of me

 

And I'm layin' flat out on the floor

 

When you think I've loved you all I can

 

I'm gonna love you a little bit more

 

Come on over here and lay by my side

 

I've got to be touchin' you

 

Let me rub your tired shoulders

 

The way I used to do

 

Look into my eyes and give me that smile

 

The one that always turns me on

 

And let me take your hair down

 

'Cause we're stayin' up to greet the sun

 

And when your body's had enough of me

 

And I'm layin' flat out on the floor

 

When you think I've loved you all I can

 

I'm gonna love you a little bit more

 

Got to say a few things that have been on my mind

 

And you know where my mind has been

 

I guess I learned my lessons

 

And now's the time to begin

 

So if you're feelin alright and you're ready for me

 

I know that I'm ready for you

 

We better get it on now

 

'Cause we got a whole life to live through

 

And when your body's had enough of me

 

And I'm layin' flat on the floor

 

When you think I've loved you all I can

 

I'm gonna love you a little bit more

 

And when your body's had enough of me

 

And I'm layin' flat out on the floor

Night falls on the city, baby feels the beat

 

Slick and sexy angel of the street

 

The queen of all the night birds watch her when she walks

 

She don't say nothing but, baby makes her blue jeans talk

 

Baby makes her blue jeans, yes she makes her blue jeans talk

 

Baby makes her blue jeans, yes she makes her blue jeans talk

 

You know what she's thinking about and it turns you inside out

 

She don't say nothing but, baby makes her blue jeans talk

 

Night time in the city, magic in the air

 

The action starts at midnight, she'll be there

 

The queen of all the night birds, a player in the dark

 

She don't say nothing but, baby makes her blue jeans talk

 

Baby makes her blue jeans, yes she makes her blue jeans talk

 

Baby makes her blue jeans, yes she makes her blue jeans talk

 

You know what she's thinking about and it turns you inside out

 

She don't say nothing but, baby makes her blue jeans talk

 

Baby makes her blue jeans, yes she makes her blue jeans talk

 

Baby makes her blue jeans, yes she makes her blue jeans talk

 

You know what she's thinking about and it turns you inside out

 

She don't say nothing but, baby makes her blue jeans talk

 

She don't say nothing but, baby makes her blue jeans talk

 

She won't say nothing

 

She don't say nothing .........

Bell Bottom Blues

 

Eric Clapton

 

Bell bottom blues, you made me cry.

 

I dont want to lose this feeling.

 

And if I could choose a place to die

 

It would be in your arms.

 

Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?

 

Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?

 

Id gladly do it because

 

I dont want to fade away.

 

Give me one more day, please.

 

I dont want to fade away.

 

In your heart I want to stay.

 

Its all wrong, but its all right.

 

The way that you treat me baby.

 

Once I was strong but I lost the fight.

 

You wont find a better loser.

 

Chorus

 

Chorus

 

Bell bottom blues, dont say goodbye.

 

Im sure were gonna meet again,

 

And if we do, dont you be surprised

 

If you find me with another lover.

 

Chorus

 

I dont want to fade away.

 

Give me one more day please.

 

I dont want to fade away.

 

In your heart I long to stay.

Layla

 

Eric Clapton

 

What'll you do when you get lonely

 

And nobody's waiting by your side?

 

You've been running and hiding much too long.

 

You know it's just your foolish pride.

 

Layla, you've 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,

 

Turned my whole world upside down.

 

Chorus

 

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.

 

Chorus

White Room

 

Cream

 

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.

 

Ill 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.

 

Ill 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.

 

Shes just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.

 

Ill sleep in this place with the lonely crowd;

 

Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves.

No Rain

 

Blind Melon

 

All I can say is that my life is pretty plain

 

I like watchin' the puddles gather rain

 

And all I can do is just pour some tea for two

 

and speak my point of view

 

But it's not sane, It's not sane

 

I just want some one to say to me

 

I'll always be there when you wake

 

Ya know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today

 

So stay with me and I'll have it made

 

And I don't understand why I sleep all day

 

And I start to complain that there's no rain

 

And all I can do is read a book to stay awake

 

And it rips my life away, but it's a great escape

 

escape......escape......escape......

 

All I can say is that my life is pretty plain

 

ya don't like my point of view

 

ya think I'm insane

 

Its not sane......it's not sane

Cat Stevens

 

Now that I've lost everything to you

 

You say you wanna start something new

 

And it's breakin' my heart you're leavin'

 

Baby, I'm grievin'

 

But if you wanna leave, take good care

 

I hope you have a lot of nice things to wear

 

But then a lot of nice things turn bad out there

 

[Chorus:]

 

Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world

 

It's hard to get by just upon a smile

 

Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world

 

I'll always remember you like a child, girl

 

You know I've seen a lot of what the world can do

 

And it's breakin' my heart in two

 

Because I never wanna see you a sad girl

 

Don't be a bad girl

 

But if you wanna leave, take good care

 

I hope you make a lot of nice friends out there

 

But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware

 

[Chorus]

 

Baby, I love you

 

But if you wanna leave, take good care

 

I hope you make a lot of nice friends out there

 

But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware

Morning has Broken

 

Cat Stevens

 

Morning has broken, like the first morning

 

Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird

 

Praise for the singing, praise for the morning

 

Praise for the springing fresh from the world

 

Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven

 

Like the first dewfall, on the first grass

 

Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden

 

Sprung in completeness where his feet pass

 

Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning

 

Born of the one light, eden saw play

 

Praise with elation, praise every morning

 

God's recreation of the new day

With a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound

 

He pulls the spitting high tension wires down

 

Helpless people on a subway train

 

Scream bug-eyed as he looks in on them

 

He picks up a bus and he throws it back down

 

As he wades through the buildings toward the center of town

 

Oh no, they say hes got to go

 

Go go godzilla, yeah

 

Oh no, there goes tokyo

 

Go go godzilla, yeah

Don't Fear the Reaper

 

Blue Oyster Cult

 

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...

 

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...

 

Love of two is one

 

Here but now they're gone

 

Came the last night of sadness

 

And it was clear we couldn't go on

 

The door was open and the wind appeared

 

The candles blew and then disappeared

 

The curtains flew then he appeared

 

Saying don't be afraid

 

Come on baby... And we had no fear

 

And we ran to him... Then we started to fly

 

We looked backward and said goodbye

 

We had become like they are

 

We had taken his hand

 

We had become like they are

 

Come on baby...don't fear the reaper

Veteren of the Psychic Wars

You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars

 

Ive been living on the edge so long

 

Where the winds of limbo roar

 

And Im young enough to look at

 

And far too old to see

 

All the scars are on the inside

 

Im not sure if theres anything left of me

 

Dont let these shakes go on

 

Its time we had a break from it

 

Its time we had some leave

 

Weve been living in the flames

 

Weve been eating up our brains

 

Oh, please dont let theses shakes go on

 

You ask me why Im weary, why I cant speak to you

 

You blame me for my silence

 

Say its time I changed and grew

 

But the wars still going on dear

 

And theres no end that I know

 

And I cant say if were ever...

 

I cant say if were ever gonna to be free

 

Dont let these shakes go on

 

Its time we had a break from it

 

Its time we had some leave

 

Weve been living in the flames

 

Weve been eating out our brains

 

Oh, please dont let theses shakes go on

 

You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars

 

My energys spent at last

 

And my armor is destroyed

 

I have used up all my weapons and Im helpless and bereaved

 

Wounds are all Im made of

 

Did I hear you say that this is victory?

 

Dont let these shakes go on

 

Its time we had a break from it

 

Send me to the rear

 

Where the tides of madness swell

 

And been sliding into hell

 

Oh, please dont let shakes go on

 

Dont let these shakes go on

 

Dont let these shakes go on

Share the land

 

Guess Who

 

Have you been around

 

Have you done your share of coming down

 

On different things that people do

 

Have you been aware

 

You got brothers and sisters who care

 

About what's gonna happen to you

 

In a year from now...

 

Maybe I'll be there to shake your hand

 

Maybe I'll be there to share the land

 

That they'll be giving away

 

When we all live together.

 

Did you pay your dues

 

Did you read the news

 

This morning when the paper landed in your yard

 

Do you know their names

 

Can you play their games

 

And coming down a bit too hard...

 

Shake your hand, share the land

 

Shake your hand, share the land

 

You know I'll be standing by

 

To help you if you worry....

 

[trailing off]

 

No more sadness, no more sorrow, no more bad times

 

every day coming sunshine, everyday everybody laughing

 

walking together by the river, walking together and

 

laughing, everybody singing together, everybody singing and

 

laughing, good times good times, everybody walking by the

 

river now, walking singing talking smiling laughing loving

 

each other.

No Sugar Tonight

 

Guess Who

 

{"No Sugar Tonight"}

 

Lonely feelin' deep inside

 

Find a corner where I can hide

 

Silent footsteps crowdin' me

 

Sudden darkness, but I can see

 

No sugar tonight in my coffee

 

No sugar tonight in my tea

 

No sugar to stand beside me

 

No sugar to run with me

 

Da-un-do-dow dow da-un-do-dow

 

Da-un-do-dow dow no no

 

Da-un-do-dow dow da-un-do-dow

 

Da-un-do-dow dow

 

In the silence of her mind

 

Quiet movements, well, I can find

 

Grabbin' for me with her eyes

 

Now I'm fallin' from her skies

 

No sugar tonight in my coffee

 

No sugar tonight in my tea

 

No sugar to stand beside me

 

No sugar to run with me

 

Da-un-do-dow dow da-un-do-dow

 

Da-un-do-dow dow un-dow-dow

 

Da-un-do-dow dow da-un-do-dow

 

Da-un-do-dow dow

 

{"New Mother Nature"}

 

Jocko says yes and I believe him

 

When we talk about the things I say

 

She hasn't got the faith or the guts to leave him

 

When they're standin' in each other's way

 

You're driven back now to places you've been to

 

You're wonderin' what you're gonna find

 

You know you've been wrong but it won't be long

 

Before you leave 'em all far behind

 

'Cause it's the new Mother Nature takin' over

 

It's the new splendid lady come to call

 

It's the new Mother Nature takin' over

 

She's gettin' us all

 

She's gettin' us all

 

Jocko said no when I came back last time

 

It's lookin' like I lost a friend

 

No use callin' 'cause the sky is fallin'

 

And I'm gettin' pretty near the end

 

A smoke-filled room in a corner basement

 

The situation must be right

 

A bag o' goodies and a bottle o' wine

 

We're gonna get it on right tonight

 

'Cause it's the new Mother Nature takin' over

 

It's the new splendid lady come to call

 

It's the new Mother Nature takin' over

 

She's gettin' us all

 

She's gettin' us all

 

{1st verse of "No Sugar Tonight" sung simultaneously with

 

1st verse of "New Mother Nature"}

 

Lonely feelin'

 

Jocko says yes and I believe him

 

Deep inside

 

When we talk about the things I say

 

Find a corner

 

She hasn't got the faith or the guts to leave him

 

Where I can hide

 

When they're standin' in each other's way

 

Silent footsteps

 

You're driven back now to places you've been to

 

Crowdin' me

 

You're wonderin' what you're gonna find

 

Sudden darkness

 

You know you've been wrong and it won't be long

 

But I can see

 

Before you leave 'em all far behind

 

'Cause it's the new Mother Nature takin' over

 

It's the new splendid lady come to call

 

It's the new Mother Nature takin' over

 

She's gettin' us all

 

She's gettin' us all

 

Da-un-do-dow dow da-un-do-dow

 

Da-un-do-dow dow no no

 

Da-un-do-dow dow da-un-do-dow

 

Da-un-do-dow dow

 

Da-un-do-dow dow da-un-do-dow

 

Da-un-do-dow dow no no

BREAK IT TO THEM GENTLY

 

Album : Dream Of A Child

 

Burton Cummings - 1978

 

Break it to them gently when you tell my Mom and Dad

 

When you see my baby sister be as kind as you can

 

And break it to my Grandma, who said "That boy's wild and bad"

 

Break it to them gently when you tell them that I won't be coming

 

home again

 

Cause I'm running with a gun and it isn't any fun as a fugitive

 

Fightin for my life and I don't know if I'll make it alone

 

Running with a gun and it isn't any fun as a fugitive

 

God I wanna go home

 

Lord I wish I was home

 

When you see my lady with the twinkle in her eyes

 

Tell it to her softly and hold her if she cries

 

Tell her that I love her and I will til the day I die

 

Tell it to her gently when you tell her that I won't be coming home

 

again

 

(chorus)

 

I got in too deep with strangers

 

Thinking they could help me find my way

 

But nobody warned me of the dangers

 

And it's always the young and foolish that have to pay

 

So break it to them gently when you tell my Mom and Dad

 

Thank them for the good years and all the lovin that I had

 

And break it to my Grandma, who said "the boy is wild and bad"

 

Break it to them gently when you tell 'em that I won't be comin home

 

again

 

(chorus)

 

You gotta break it to them gently

 

Gotta really try to roll 'em

 

Gotta break it to them gently

 

Gotta really try to soothe them

 

Gotta really try to roll 'em

 

You gotta roll it to my Mother

 

Gotta roll it to my Grandma

 

Gotta roll the old lady

 

Roll it to my Grandma, she's damn near eighty

 

Roll the old lady

Hey Lawdy Mama

 

Steppenwolf

 

You'd like to show me all around

 

Thank you girl but I know this town

 

It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright

 

Don't you know they're all the same

 

Only difference is the name

 

It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright

 

Three motels, dusty cars

 

A movie show and a dozen bars

 

It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright

 

Only thing that I can say

 

Is we'll be here for just one day

 

Baby don't you know we're

 

Leavin' early in the mornin'

 

So long, I don't know we might be back next year

 

Baby it just might be never

 

Don't cha worry 'bout it

 

So long, good to know your smilin' face was here

 

This town is boring you to tears

 

Nothing in the world ever happens here

 

It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright

 

Don't you know you've got to help

 

Nothing ever happens by itself

 

It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright

 

If no one will share the load

 

Go pack your bags, hit the open road

 

It's alright, hey lawdy mama, it's alright

 

Try to find someone like you

 

Hope will tell you what to do

 

Baby don't you know we're

 

Leavin' early in the mornin'

 

So long, I don't know we might be back next year

 

Baby it just might be never

 

Don't cha worry 'bout it

 

So long good to know your smilin' face was here

Magic Carpet Ride

 

Steppenwolf

 

I like to dream yes, yes, right between my sound machine

 

On a cloud of sound I drift in the night

 

Any place it goes is right

 

Goes far, flies near, to the stars away from here

 

Well, you don't know what we can find

 

Why don't you come with me little girl

 

On a magic carpet ride

 

You don't know what we can see

 

Why don't you tell your dreams to me

 

Fantasy will set you free

 

Close your eyes girl

 

Look inside girl

 

Let the sound take you away

 

Last night I held Aladdin's lamp

 

And so I wished that I could stay

 

Before the thing could answer me

 

Well, someone came and took the lamp away

 

I looked around, a lousy candle's all I found

 

Well, you don't know what we can find

 

Why don't you come with me little girl

 

On a magic carpet ride

 

Well, you don't know what we can see

 

Why don't you tell your dreams to me

 

Fantasy will set you free

 

Close your eyes girl

 

Look inside girl

 

Let the sound take you away

The Pusher

 

Steppenwolf

 

You know I've smoked a lot of grass

 

O' Lord, I've popped a lot of pills

 

But I never touched nothin'

 

That my spirit could kill

 

You know, I've seen a lot of people walkin' 'round

 

With tombstones in their eyes

 

But the pusher don't care

 

Ah, if you live or if you die

 

God damn, The Pusher

 

God damn, I say The Pusher

 

I said God damn, God damn The Pusher man

 

You know the dealer, the dealer is a man

 

With the love grass in his hand

 

Oh but the pusher is a monster

 

Good God, he's not a natural man

 

The dealer for a nickel

 

Lord, will sell you lots of sweet dreams

 

Ah, but the pusher ruin your body

 

Lord, he'll leave your, he'll leave your mind to scream

 

God damn, The Pusher

 

God damn, God damn the Pusher

 

I said God damn, God, God damn The Pusher man

 

Well, now if I were the president of this land

 

You know, I'd declare total war on The Pusher man

 

I'd cut him if he stands, and I'd shoot him if he'd run

 

Yes I'd kill him with my Bible and my razor and my gun

 

God damn The Pusher

 

Gad damn The Pusher

 

I said God damn, God damn The Pusher man

Champagne Supernova - Oasis

 

How many special people change?

 

How many lives are living strange?

 

Where were you while we were getting high?

 

Slowly walking down the hall

 

Faster than a cannonball

 

Where were you while we were getting high?

 

Someday you will find me

 

Caught beneath the landslide

 

In a champagne supernova in the sky

 

Someday you will find me

 

Caught beneath the landslide

 

In a champagne supernova

 

A champagne supernova in the sky

 

Wake up the dawn and ask her why

 

A dreamer dreams, she never dies

 

Wipe that tear away now from your eye

 

Slowly walking down the hall

 

Faster than a cannonball

 

Where were you while we were getting high?

 

Someday you will find me

 

Caught beneath the landslide

 

In a champagne supernova in the sky

 

Someday you will find me

 

Caught beneath the landslide

 

In a champagne supernova in the sky

 

'Cuz we don't believe

 

That they're gonna get away from the summer

 

But you and I will never die

 

The world's still spinning around we don't know why

 

Why-why-why-why-i-i

 

How many special people change?

 

How many lives are living strange?

 

Where were you while we were getting high?

 

Slowly walking down the hall

 

Faster than a cannonball

 

Where were you while we were getting high?

 

Someday you will find me

 

Caught beneath the landslide

 

In a champagne supernova in the sky

 

'Cuz we don't believe

 

That they're gonna get away from the summer

 

But you and I will never die

 

The world's still spinning around we don't know why

 

Why-why-why-why-i-i

 

How many special people change?

 

How many lives are living strange?

 

Where were you while we were getting high?

 

We were getting high
