Lyrical LoT

[Gemini Cricket]

Tell us how you're feeling today in the form of a lyric from a song, poem, quote...
Or maybe there's a song stuck in your head...

Ready? Go!


I'll start.

------------------

"You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares
So go downtown, where all the lights are bright
Downtown...waiting for you tonight
Downtown...you're gonna be all right now"

(Working in Downtown in a big city, sometimes I just wanna belt this tune out.) :D

[Snowflake]

Because I am at a crossroads....this Cole Porter tune is pretty right on the money, honey.

WHICH? (Wake Up and Dream, 1929)

Which is the right life,
The simple or the night life?
When, pray, should one rise,
At sunset or at sunrise?
Which should be upper,
My breakfast or my supper?
Which is the right life,
Which?

If the wood nymph left the park,
Would Park Avenue excite her?
Would the glowworm trade her spark
For the latest Dunhill lighter?
Here's a question I would pose,
Tell me which the sweeter smell makes,
The aroma of the rose,
Or the perfume that Chanel makes?

Which land is dreamier,
Arcadia or Bohemia?
Who'll tell me the answer,
The daisy or the dancer?
Which life is for me,
The peaceful or the stormy?
Which is the right man,
Walt Whitman or Paul Whiteman,
Which?

Should I read Euripides or continue with The Graphic?
Hear the murmur of the breeze or the roaring of the traffic?
Should I make one man my choice
And regard divorce as treason,
Or should I, like Peggy Joyce,
Get a new one ev'ry season?

Which is the right life,
The simple or the night life?
When, pray, should one rise,
At sunset or at sunrise?
Which should be upper,
My breakfast or my supper?
Which is the right life,
Which?

[SzczerbiakManiac]

I'm tired,
tired of playing the game,
ain't it a crying shame?
I'm so tired,
God dammit I'm tired!

[Not Afraid]

This is the first song that came into my head to describe my day so far. Why? Who knows, but not it's stuck in my head.....and yours too. :evil:

Have you never been mellow?
Have you never tried to find a comfort from inside you?
Have you never been happy just to hear your song?
Have you never let someone else be strong?

[Prudence]

Ba-ba-baba, baba-ba-baba, I wanna be sedated
Ba-ba-baba, baba-ba-baba, I wanna be sedated
Ba-ba-baba, baba-ba-baba, I wanna be sedated
Ba-ba-baba, baba-ba-baba, I wanna be sedated

[Gemini Cricket]

Ba-ba-baba, baba-ba-baba, I wanna be sedated...
Cool! It looks like the characters in your avatar are singing it.
:D


Lunchtime:

"Food glorious food!"

[Mr. Fusion]

BTW, SzczerbiakManiac, I LOVE that movie!

So, since I'm trying to get the year started off on a good note the right foot, Nat King Cole's been chiming through my head:


Buzzard took the monkey for a ride in the air.
The monkey thought that everything was on the square.
The buzzard tried to throw the monkey off his back,
But the monkey grabbed his neck and said-- Now listen, Jack!

Straighten up and fly right,
Straighten up and fly right;
Straighten up and fly right,
Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top.
Ain't no use in divin',
What's the use in jivin'?
Straighten up and fly right,
Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top.

The buzzard told the monkey "You are chokin' me.
Release your hold, and I will set you free!"
Monkey looked the buzzard right dead in the eye, and said,
"Your story is so touching but it sounds just like lie."

Straighten up and fly right,
Straighten up and stay right;
Straighten up and fly right,
Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top.

[Cadaverous Pallor]

People.
People who need people
are the LUCKIEST PEOPLE (gotta belt it)
in the world.

Feelin' appreciative today :cool:

[tracilicious]

Okey dokie artichokie!

(guess what I just ate...)

[flippyshark]

Thanks to LSPoorEeyorick, I'm humming:

So if you want to sing out, sing out
And if you want to be free, be free

[Gemini Cricket]

I'm in a silly mood, I'm in a silly mood:

"You can do it it's all up to you, mmmmmkay?
With a little plan you can change your life tooo-day
You don't have to spend your life addicted to smack
Homeless on the streets giving handjobs for crack
Follow my plan and very soon you will saaaaayy, its easy mmkay..." :D

[Prudence]

For no apparent reason:

Come on dad gimme the car tonight
Come on dad gimme the car tonight
I got this girl I wanna....

[Gemini Cricket]

"Don't stress,
Relax,
Let life roll off your backs
Except for death and paying taxes,
Everything in life is only for now!"

[Gemini Cricket]

"Ground floor: perfumery,
stationery and leather goods,
wigs and haberdashery
kitchenware and food. Going up!

First floor: telephones,
gents ready-made suits,
shirts, socks, ties, hats,
underwear and shoes. Going up!

Second floor: carpets,
travel goods and bedding,
material, soft furnishings,
restaurant and teas. Going down!"

[Bornieo: Fully Loaded]

Not a fav of mine, but for some reason, its in my head all week. Maybe I need to see a doctor.....;)

I don’t wanna live without your love,
I don’t wanna face the night alone.
I could never make it through my life
If I had to make it on my own.
I don’t wanna love nobody else,
I don’t wanna find somebody new.
I don’t wanna live without your love,
I just wanna live my life with you.

[SzczerbiakManiac]

It looks like GC is being served!

[Prudence]

They're coming to take me away, ha-ha!
They're coming to take me away, ho-ho, hee-hee, ha-ha!
To the funny farm, where life is beautiful all the time
and I'll be happy to see those nice young men in their clean white coats
And they're coming to take me away, ha-ha!

[CoasterMatt]

Now everybody tells me you’re the dog’s best friend
I’m the cat’s meow since I don’t know when
I’m an instigator from a dead man’s town
So when did the whole world turn upside down
When did you change your mind, when did you lose the juice
Now where did you get your attitude
When did you give it away, what did the old man say
And how many babies did you kick today
Now how many nights can the full moon shine
How many bottles of water can you turn to wine
When the blood has flowed against the tides of time
And the water flows forever
Hey hey hey!
Now I’m gonna build a boat, I’m gonna make it float
’cause I’m getting the chase for a faraway place
Gonna set the sail, gonna catch some wind
And the big red sky’s gonna be my only friend
With a boat for two, just me and you
You can be my teacher, I can teach you too
Gonna try a few things that I’ve never done
Maybe talk to the fishies, maybe have some fun
Maybe shake my pale fist at the angry stars
While I dance a jig under the eyes of mars
When we get to an island where no one’s ever been
We can get down and dirty in our animal skins
And I stand with my thing hanging out in the wind
Where the water’s sweet like honey
Hey hey yeah hey hey yeah!
I’ve been feeling a chill, from the east wind blue
It’s been creeping up slow, have you felt it too?
Have you noticed the look? have you felt the feel?
Did it make you blush when the piggy squealed
Have you heard what they say, did you read the news
Said the old man’s coming home a-singing the blues
Gonna whack your fanny, gonna tan your hide
Make your ears turn red, make you gonna cry
Now how many children gonna lose their minds
How many crying girls will be left behind
When the dead start walking and the full moon shines
When the dead start walking and the full moon shines
When the dead start walking and the full moon shines
When the dead start walking and the full moon shines
When the dead start walking... yeah
Now everybody sing to the heavens above
And everybody dance to the sounds of love
Won’t you clack your teeth, won’t you smack your hands
Won’t you dig your little heads right out of the sand
Won’t you jiggle your butt, won’t you wave your arms
Won’t you look like you just came off of the farm
Won’t you stop your fighting for a second or two
Won’t you help your neighbors, won’t you do the do
Won’t you taste the sugar, won’t you eat the cake
Won’t you get your ugly mug right out of my face
Won’t you tell your brothers and your sisters tonight,
That you tasted the water and the water was right
Won’t you taste the sugar, won’t you dance the dance
Won’t you wake up please, come on out of your trance
Everybody make believe that you disappear
For a second or two, gonna feel so queer
And you left behind all your rage and fear
And it made you feel like water

This songs been in my head all week...

[Gemini Cricket]

Dang Beyonce Pink Panther earworm...

"Ooh Boy you looking like you like what you see
Won't you come over check up on it, I'm gonna let you work up on it
Ladies let em check up on it, watch it while he check up on it
Dip it, pop it, work it, stop it, check on me tonight..."

GC version singing around the house like a lunatic:

"Ohh Boy you looky looky like you like what you see
Won't you come over check up on it, I'm gonna let you check up on it
Doctors always check up on it, watch Frodo while he check up on it
Dork it, snork it, smurf it, smaff it, check on me tonight...
Check up check up ketchup on it..."

:D

[Cadaverous Pallor]

You must spread some Mojo around before giving it to Gemini Cricket again.

Too freakin' funny!

[SzczerbiakManiac]

When I need somethin' to help me unwind
I find a six foot baby with a one track mind.
Smart guys are nowhere, they make demands
Give me a moron with talented hands.
I go bar-hopping and they say last call
I start shopping for a Neanderthal

The bigger they come the harder I fall
In love 'til we're done then they're out in the hall

I like 'em big and stupid
I like 'em big and real dumb
I like 'em big and stupid

What kind of guy does a lot for me?
A Superman with a lobotomy!
My father's outa Harvard
My brother's outa Yale
But the guy I took home last night
Just got outa jail

The way he grabbed and threw me, ooh it really got me hot.
But the way he growled and bit me, I hope he had his shots!

[Prudence]

....... Pennsylvania 6-5000! .......

[Gemini Cricket]

"If you could read my mind, love
What a tale my thoughts would tell
Just like an old time movie
'Bout a ghost from a wishing well..."

[Prudence]

In some secluded rendezvous,
That overlooks the avenue,
With someone sharing a delightful chat,
Of this and that,
And cocktails for two.

[tracilicious]

Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure the days of the year?

[Prudence]

This particular lyric comes back every while to remind me of my mispent youth. It's lyrical VD, I think. And this morning marks another outbreak.

"Unskinny bop
Just blows me away
Unskinny bop, bop
All night and day
Unskinny bop, bop, bop, bop
She just loves to play
Unskinny bop nothin’ more to say"

Just shoot me now.

[Cadaverous Pallor]

I wanna know what love iiiiiiisss!
I want you to show meeeee!
I want to FEEL what love iiiisss!
I KNOW YOU CAN SHOW ME!!!!

I love Foreigner and you can't stop me :p

[Gemini Cricket]

"You can't stop my happiness
'Cause I like the way I am
And you just can't stop my knife and fork
When I see a Christmas ham
So if you don't like the way I look
Well I just don't give a damn
Cause the world keeps spinning round and round
And my heart's keeping time to the speed of sound..."

[Capt Jack]

A worried man with a worried mind
No one in front of me and nothing behind
There's a woman on my lap and she's drinking champagne
Got white skin, got assassin's eyes
I'm looking up into the sapphire tinted skies
I'm well dressed, waiting on the last train

Standing on the gallows with my head in a noose
Any minute now I'm expecting all hell to break loose

People are crazy and times are strange
I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range
I used to care, but things have changed

This place ain't doing me any good
I'm in the wrong town, I should be in Hollywood
Just for a second there I thought I saw something move
Gonna take dancing lessons do the jitterbug rag
Ain't no shortcuts, gonna dress in drag
Only a fool in here would think he's got anything to prove

Lot of water under the bridge, Lot of other stuff too
Don't get up gentlemen, I'm only passing through

People are crazy and times are strange
I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range
I used to care, but things have changed

I've been walking forty miles of bad road
If the bible is right, the world will explode
I've been trying to get as far away from myself as I can
Some things are too hot to touch
The human mind can only stand so much
You can't win with a losing hand

Feel like falling in love with the first woman I meet
Putting her in a wheel barrow and wheeling her down the street

People are crazy and times are strange
I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range
I used to care, but things have changed

I hurt easy, I just don't show it
You can hurt someone and not even know it
The next sixty seconds could be like an eternity
Gonna get low down, gonna fly high
All the truth in the world adds up to one big lie
I'm love with a woman who don't even appeal to me

Mr. Jinx and Miss Lucy, they jumped in the lake
I'm not that eager to make a mistake

People are crazy and times are strange
I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range
I used to care, but
things have changed

[SzczerbiakManiac]

Can anybody find me somebody to love
Each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
Take a look in the mirror and cry

I work hard every day of my life
I work till I ache my bones
At the end I take home my hard earned pay all on my own
I get down on my knees
Till the tears run down from my eyes

Everyday - I try and I try and I try -
But everybody want to put me down,
They say I'm goin' crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
Got no common sense
I got nobody left to believe

Got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat
I'm OK, I'm alright
Ain't gonna face no defeat
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
Someday I'm gonna be free

[Gemini Cricket]

"I want to tell you all a story 'bout a Harper Valley widowed wife
Who had a teenage daughter who attended Harper Valley Junior High
Well her daughter came home one afternoon and didn't even stop to play
She said, "Mom, I got a note here from the Harper Valley P.T.A."

The note said, "Mrs. Johnson, you're wearing your dresses way too high
It's reported you've been drinking and a-runnin' 'round with men and going wild
And we don't believe you ought to be bringing up your little girl this way"
It was signed by the secretary, Harper Valley P.T.A.

Well, it happened that the P.T.A. was gonna meet that very afternoon
They were sure surprised when Mrs. Johnson wore her mini-skirt into the room
And as she walked up to the blackboard, I still recall the words she had to say
She said, "I'd like to address this meeting of the Harper Valley P.T.A."

Well, there's Bobby Taylor sittin' there and seven times he's asked me for a date
Mrs. Taylor sure seems to use a lot of ice whenever he's away
And Mr. Baker, can you tell us why your secretary had to leave this town?
And shouldn't widow Jones be told to keep her window shades all pulled completely down?

Well, Mr. Harper couldn't be here 'cause he stayed too long at Kelly's Bar again
And if you smell Shirley Thompson's breath, you'll find she's had a little nip of gin
Then you have the nerve to tell me you think that as a mother I'm not fit
Well, this is just a little Peyton Place and you're all Harper Valley hypocrites

No I wouldn't put you on because it really did, it happened just this way
The day my Mama socked it to the Harper Valley P.T.A.
The day my Mama socked it to the Harper Valley P.T.A."

[Not Afraid]

I just started singing this for no apparent reason (I was reading some political thread at the time):

Finished with my woman 'cause she couldn't help me with my mind
people think I'm insane because I am frowning all the time
All day long I think of things but nothing seems to satisfy
Think I'll lose my mind if I don't find something to pacify

Can you help me occupy my brain?
Oh yeah

I need someone to show me the things in life that I can't find
I can't see the things that make true happiness, I must be blind

Make a joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry
Happiness I cannot feel and love to me is so unreal

And so as you hear these words telling you now of my state
I tell you to enjoy life I wish I could but it's too late

[Capt Jack]

oooh...pre-historic Sabbath reference. I knew I liked you

:D

[mousepod]

I'll bet NA was at more Dickies shows that most Sabbath fans have been to Ozzfest...

[Not Afraid]

Did you bet money? I sure hope so!


Now take me out to dinner, damnit.

[€uroMeinke]

Did you bet money? I sure hope so!


Now take me out to dinner, damnit.

Carefull, you may end up at Rainforest

[Gemini Cricket]

Being good isn't always easy,
No matter how hard I tried,
When he started sweet talking to me,
he'd come tell me everything is alright,
he'd kiss and tell me everything is alright,
Can I get away again tonight?

The only one who could ever reach me,
Was the son of a preacher man,
The only boy who could ever teach me,
Was the son of a preacher man,
Yes he was, he was, oh, yes, he was.

[Gemini Cricket]

Looking at the clock... waiting for 4 o'clock...

"Time goes by so slowly,
time goes by so slowly..."

~ Madonna 'Hung Up'

[Not Afraid]

Gimme Gimme Giime a man after midnight.........

[SzczerbiakManiac]

And I don’t care about the way you look
You should know I’m not impressed
’cause there’s just one thing
That I’m looking for
And he don’t wear a dress.

I need a man...
I need a man...

Baby baby baby
Don’t you shave your legs
Don’t you double comb your hair
Don’t powder puff
Just leave it rough
I like your fingers bare.
When the night comes down
I can turn it round
I can take you anywhere.
I don’t need love
Forget that stuff
You know that I don’t care

I need a man...
I need a man...

[SzczerbiakManiac]

When I hear this song, I can't help but think about a certain basketball player....

You are an obsession
I cannot sleep
I am a possession
Unopened at your feet
There is no balance
No equality
Be still
I will not accept defeat

I will have you
Yes I will have you
I will find a way and I will have you
Like a butterfly
A wild butterfly
I will collect you and capture you

You are an obsession
You're my obsession
Who do you want me to be
To make you sleep with me

I feed you I drink you
My day and my night
I need you I need you
By sun or candlelight
You protest you want to leave
Stay there's no alternative

Your face appears again
I see the beauty there
But I see danger
Stranger beware
A circumstance in your naked dream
Your affection is not what it seems

My fantasy has turned to madness
All my goodness has turned to badness
My need to possess you has consumed my soul
My life is trembling I have no control

[Cadaverous Pallor]

You know, if I ever hear that a certain basketball player has disappeared, I'll have to locate you immediately ;)

Song of the day, caught on the radio, played blasting with windows open on the freeway:

I was alive and I waited, waited
I was alive and I waited for this
Right here, right now, there is no other place I want to be

[Gemini Cricket]

"If it seems a little time is needed
Decisions to be made
The good advice of friends unheeded
The best of plans mislaid
Just looking for a new direction
In an old familiar way
The forming of a new connection
To study or to play

And so the conversation turned
Until the sun went down
And many fantasies were learned
On that day

Keep feeling fascination
Passion burning
Love so strong
Keep feeling fascination
Looking learning
Moving on

Well the truth may need some
Re-arranging
Stories to be told
And plain to see the facts are changing
No meaning left to hold

And so the conversation turned
Until the sun went down
And many fantasies were learned
On that day

And so the conversation turned
Until the sun went down
And many fantasies were learned
On that day..."

[Gemini Cricket]

"Passion, instant
Sweat me, feel me
Cupid’s shot me
My heartbeat’s racing
Tempt me, drive me
Feels so exiting
Thought of highly
It’s yours entirely

I’ll be
I’ll be more than a lover..."

[Capt Jack]

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?
and 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.

[MouseWife]

I'm becoming less to find as days go by
Fading away
Well you might say
I'm loosing focus
Kind adrifting into the abstract in terms of how I see myself

Sometimes I think I can see right through myself

Less concerned about fitting into the world
Your world that is
Because it doesn't really matter
(no it doesn't really matter anymore)
None of this really matters anymore

Yes I'm alone but then again I always was
As far back as I can tell
I think maybe it's because you never were really real to begin with
I just made you up to hurt myself
And it worked.
Yes it did!

[Chorus]
There is no you
There is only me
There is no you
There is only me
There is no fvcking you
There is only me
There is no fvcking you
There is only me

Only

The tiniest little dot caught my eye and it turned out to be scab and I had this funny feeling
Like I just knew it was something bad
I just couldn't leave it alone, picking at that scab
Was a doorway trying to seal itself shut
But I climbed through

Now I am somehwere I am not supposed to be,
and I can see things I knew I really shouldn't see
And now I know why (yea now I know why)
Things aren't as pretty
On the inside

[SzczerbiakManiac]

Another thread (http://www.loungeoftomorrow.com/LoT/showthread.php?t=2942) made me remeber this song by the scrumtrilescent Tom Lehrer

Oh, the white folks hate the black folks
And the black folks hate the white folks
To hate all but the right folks
Is an old established rule

But during National Brotherhood Week
National Brotherhood Week
Lena Horne and Sheriff Clark
Are dancing cheek to cheek
It's fun to eulogize
The people you despise
As long as you don't let 'em in your school

Oh, the poor folks hate the rich folks
And the rich folks hate the poor folks
All of my folks hate all of your folks
It's American as apple pie

But during National Brotherhood Week
National Brotherhood Week
New Yorkers love the Puerto Ricans
'Cause it's very chic
Step up and shake the hand
Of someone you can't stand
You can tolerate him if you try

Oh, the Protestants hate the Catholics
And the Catholics hate the Protestants
And the Hindus hate the Moslems
And everybody hates the Jews

But during National Brotherhood Week
National Brotherhood Week
It's National Everyone-Smile-At-
One-Another-hood Week
Be nice to people who
Are inferior to you
It's only for a week, so have no fear
Be grateful that it doesn't last all year!

[Gemini Cricket]

How about this gem:

"Everyone's a little bit racist
Sometimes.
Doesn't mean we go
Around committing hate crimes.
Look around and you will find
No one's really color blind.
Maybe it's a fact
We all should face
Everyone makes judgments
Based on race."

[Prudence]

Great. Now that someone's mentioned Tom Lehrermy mind's singing:

I ache for the touch of your lips, dear,
But much more for the touch of your whips, dear.
You can raise welts
Like nobody else,
As we dance to the masochism tango.

[Gemini Cricket]

You walked into the party like you were walking onto a yacht
Your hat strategically dipped below one eye
Your scarf it was apricot
You had one eye in the mirror as you watched yourself gavotte
And all the girls dreamed that they'd be your partner
They'd be your partner, and...

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you
You're so vain, I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't You?

You had me several years ago when I was still quite naive
Well you said that we made such a pretty pair
And that you would never leave
But you gave away the things you loved and one of them was me
I had some dreams, they were clouds in my coffee
Clouds in my coffee, and...

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you
You're so vain, I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't You? Don't You?

I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee
Clouds in my coffee, and...

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you
You're so vain, I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't You?

Well I hear you went up to Saratoga and your horse naturally won
Then you flew your lear jet up to Nova Scotia
To see the total eclipse of the sun
Well you're where you should be all the time
And when you're not you're with
Some underworld spy or the wife of a close friend
Wife from a close friend, and...

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you
You're so vain, I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't You? Don't you?

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you
You're so vain, I'll bet you think this song is about you

[Prudence]

Apparently my brain is still on a Demento kick:

Does your chewing gum lose its flavor
On the bedpost over night?
If your mother says don't chew it
Do you swallow it in spite?
Can you catch on your tonsils?
Can you heave it left and right?
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor
On the bedpost over night?

[Not Afraid]

Oh say can you see........


Olympic Gold leftovers in my brain.

[Prudence]

Apparently this is Russian folksong week. One of our new employees majored in Russian so we've been sharing "songs we had to sing in class" notes. One's been stalking me all week. Then I get this sent to me in email:

Warning - video is US Figure Skater Approved (http://www.rathergood.com/katjusha/)

I know you'll want the lyrics to join me in singing along, so here you go:

Расцветали яблони и груши,
Поплыли туманы над рекой;
Выходила на берег Катюша,
На высокий берег, на крутой.

Выходила, песню заводила
Про степного, сизого орла,
Про того, которого любила,
Про того, чьи письма берегла.

Ой, ты песня, песенка девичья,
Ты лети за ясным солнцем вслед,
И бойцу на дальшем пограничье
От Катюши передай привет.

[Gemini Cricket]

Walk out into velvet
Nothing more to say
You're my favourite moment
You're my Saturday

Because you're my Number 1
I'm like a dog to get you
I want it up and on
I'm like a dog to get you

Sunset only seconds
Just ripe then it's gone
Got no new intentions
Just right then it's gone

Because you're my Number 1
I'm like a dog to get you
I want it up and on
I'm like a dog to get you

I'll be there to meet you
Getting down to greet you
Howl under the moon

[Not Afraid]

Charlie got me singing this this morning:

Oh, yeah....

Chorus:
(I,I,)I'm just a love machine and I won't work for nobody but you
(I,I )I'm just a love machine .............. A hugging kissing fiend

I think it's high time you knew
Whenever I think of you
My mind blows a fuse
When I lookIn your eyes
My meter starts to rise
And I become confused
My motor cranked electric goes
When I'm sitting next to you
Electricity starts to flow
And my indicator starts to glow

Repeat chorus

I'm gentle as a lamb
I'm not that hard to program
There's no way that you can lose
Chassis fits like a glove
I've got a button for love
That you've got to use (push it push it baby)
If you look into my power
I am sure you can find out how
To turn me on just set my dial
And let me love you for a little while ooooooh

Repeat chorus

La... La la la la..... La la la la.. La la
La la la la la.. La la la.... La la laaaaaaaaa
Push it push it baby, yeah......ah, ah

Repeat chorus

[Gemini Cricket]

The strangest things happen on the subway sometimes. A guy went up to a woman he didn't know and handed her a yellow sticky. On it he wrote: "You make me feel like dancing." (I read it as she did. I'm nosy.) After he handed it to her, he got off the train. She smiled at the letter and put it in her purse. By the way they both acted, neither knew each other.

So, now that song is in my head. "You make me feel like dancing, I wanna dance the night away..."
:)

[Not Afraid]

OMG! That's the most random sweetest think I've ever heard! I LOVE IT!

[Capt Jack]

I guess Im too cynical for my own good. first word I thought of was 'stalker'

[SacTown Chronic]

Look at your young men fighting
Look at your women crying
Look at your young men dying
The way they've always done before

Look at the hate we're breeding
Look at the fear we're feeding
Look at the lives we're leading
The way we've always done before

My hands are tied
The billions shift from side to side
And the wars go on with brainwashed pride
For the love of God and our human rights
And all these things are swept aside
By bloody hands time can't deny
And are washed away by your genocide
And history hides the lies of our civil wars


D'you wear a black armband
When they shot the man
Who said "Peace could last forever"
And in my first memories
They shot Kennedy
I went numb when I learned to see
So I never fell for Vietnam
We got the wall of D.C. to remind us all
That you can't trust freedom
When it's not in your hands
When everybody's fightin'
For their promised land

And
I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
I don't need your civil war

Look at the shoes your filling
Look at the blood we're spilling
Look at the world we're killing
The way we've always done before
Look in the doubt we've wallowed
Look at the leaders we've followed
Look at the lies we've swallowed
And I don't want to hear no more

My hands are tied
For all I've seen has changed my mind
But still the wars go on as the years go by
With no love of God or human rights
'Cause all these dreams are swept aside
By bloody hands of the hypnotized
Who carry the cross of homicide
And history bears the scars of our civil wars

[Gemini Cricket]

"I walk down the lane
with a happy refrain
I'm singin' just singin'
in the rain..."

[Gemini Cricket]

I've been a bad bad girl
I've been careless
With a delicate man
And it's a sad sad world
When a girl will break a boy
Just because she can
Don't you tell me to deny it
I've done wrong and
I want to
Suffer for my sins
I've come to you
'Cause I need
Guidance to be true
And I just don't know
Where I can begin
What I need is
A good defense
'Cause I'm feelin'
Like a criminal
And I need
To be redeemed
To the one
I've sinned against
Because he's all
I ever knew of love

[MouseWife]

Someone falls to pieces
Sleeping all alone
Someone kills the pain
Spinning in the silence
She finally drifts away
Someone gets excited
In the chapel yard
Catches a bouquet
Another lays a dozen
White roses on a grave

{Chorus}
And be yourself is all that you can do
To be yourself is all that you can do

Someone finds salvation
In everyone
Another only pain
Someone tries to hide himself
Down inside himself he prays
Someone swears his true love
Until the end of time
Another runs away
Separate or united
Empty or insane

{Chorus}

Even when you've paid enough
Been put upon
Or been held up
Every single memory of
Good or bad
Faces of love
Don't lose any sleep tonight
I'm sure everything
Will end up alright
Even when you lose

{Chorus}

[MouseWife]

"You know it's hard out here for a pimp, when your trying to get the money for the rent...."

How many heads is that song going through today???

[Gemini Cricket]

Well I can't tell you where I'm going, I'm not sure of where I've been
But I know I must keep travelin' till my road comes to an end
I'm out here on my journey, trying to make the most of it
I'm a puzzle, I must figure out where all my pieces fit...

[Cadaverous Pallor]

The second star to the right
Shines in the night for you.
To tell you that the dreams you plan
Really can come true.

The second star to the right
Shines with a light that's rare
And if it's Never Land you need
Its light will lead you there.


And when you bring him my way
Each time we say "Goodnight"
We'll thank the little star that shines
The second from the right.

I always end up whistling or singing this after a really good day at Disneyland.

[Gemini Cricket]

Besides 'Pimp', I have several songs in my head today. It's a gloomy sort of day...

------------

"But it's all right now, I learned my lesson well.
You see, ya can't please everyone, so ya got to please yourself..."

------------

"You can tell the truth or you can lie
You can say I left you or I died
Say I'm in the Himalayas on some spiritual quest
And could spend years lookin' for the light
Say I'm in the witness program with the F.B.I.,
Say a U.F.O. abducted me from home
You can say what you chose, but I tell you the truth
You can say for sure I'm gone, 'cause I'm gone..."

[Prudence]

I am the monarch of the sea,
The ruler of the Queen's Navee,
Whose praise Great Britain loudly chants.

And we are his sisters and his cousins and his aunts!
And we are his sisters and his cousins and his aunts!

When at anchor here I ride,
My bosom swells with pride,
And I snap my fingers at a foeman's taunts.

And so do his sisters and his cousins and his aunts!
And so do his sisters and his cousins and his aunts!

But when the breezes blow,
I generally go below,
And seek the seclusion that a cabin grants.

And so do his sisters and his cousins and his aunts!
And so do his sisters and his cousins and his aunts!
His sisters and his cousins whom he reckons by the dozens and his aunts!

[Ponine]

Des yeux qui font baiser les miens,
Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche,
Voila le portrait sans retouche
De l'homme auquel j'appartiens

Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Il me parle tout bas,
Je vois la vie en rose.

Il me dit des mots d'amour,
Des mots de tous les jours,
Et ca me fait quelque chose.

Il est entre dans mon coeur
Une part de bonheur
Dont je connais la cause.

C'est lui pour moi. Moi pour lui
Dans la vie,
Il me l'a dit, l'a jure pour la vie.

Et des que je l'apercois
Alors je sens en moi
Mon coeur qui bat

Des nuits d'amour a ne plus en finir
Un grand bonheur qui prend sa place
Des enuis des chagrins, des phases
Heureux, heureux a en mourir.

[MouseWife]

From the moment you said "why haven't you kissed me yet?"
I knew i'd wipe that paint from your lips
I stare the lids off your eyes, gone down on your dirty mind
& end up between you hips
Handfuls of sweat tangled hair, anytime, anywhere
I wanna lick you too much baby
I just play all alone, whispering for your moan
Forced to crawl down this line, just to touch

I can get in
I can't get out
I'm just sweating my sheets
I hate to see you leave, but i love to watch you go baby
Twisted secret lives, the way you bat your eyes
Givin head givin head givin head

Watch you come from above
I'm so needy for love, i'm desperate,
Greedy in slavery
I sneak around from behind
I got a one track mind
We got a skin on skin thing baby
I wanna lick you too much
I hear you comin ooh aaaah baby

Ah, yeah.....I really needed to learn the words to this song that I love...so I could quit playing/singing it in front of the kids!! Aye carumba!! And the song comes complete with, uh, sounds....zippers and other effects....:blush:

Anywho, GC, how you doin? CP, our song in Disneyland has always been 'I Love A Parade'. We had a big family {took up a whole church pew} and took other family members and we were a parade.

[Gemini Cricket]

Anywho, GC, how you doin?
"Celebrate we will
Because life is short but
Sweet for certain
We're climbing two by two
To be sure these days continue
The things we cannot...
Celebrate, you and me, climbing two by two, to be sure
these days continue, things we cannot change..."
:)

[MouseWife]

Ah, you sound like another friend I was concerned about. She came to the conclusion that you have to live for today and let yesterday stay there. Learn lessons from it but leave it behind.


Sometimes I feel the fear of uncertainty stinging clear. And I can't help but ask myself how much I'll let the fear take the wheel and steer. It's driven me before, and it seems to have a vague, haunting mass appeal. But lately I am beginning to find that I should be the one behind the wheel. Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there with open arms and open eyes. So if I decide to waiver my chance to be one of the hive will I choose water over wine and hold my own and drive? It's driven me before and it seems to be the way that everyone else gets around. But lately I'm beginning to find that when I drive myself my light is found. So whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there with open arms and open eyes. Yeh. Would you kill the Queen to crush the hive? Would you choose water over wine.... hold the wheel and drive?

[Gemini Cricket]

I'll never be an angel
I'll never be a saint it's true
I'm too busy surviving
Whether it's heaven or hell
I'm gonna be living to tell, so

Here's my story (my story)
No risk no glory (no glory)
A little

Up and down and all around
It's all about survival

Here's my question (my question)
Does your criticism (criticism)
Have you caught up in what you cannot see
Well if you give me respect
Then you'll know what to expect, a little

(Up and down and all around)
I'll never be an angel
(Up and down and all around, survival)
(Up and down and all around)
I'll never be a saint it's true
(Up and down and all around, survival)

[Cadaverous Pallor]

(Courtesy shuffle on my iPod)

1, 2, 3, 4
Can I have a little more?
5, 6, 7 8 9 10
I love you.

A, B, C, D
Can I bring my friend to tea?
E, F, G H I J
I love you.

Bump bump bump
bumpbump babump
Sail the ship
bump, babump
Chop the tree
bump, babump
Skip the rope
bump, babump
Look at me!

All together now.
(all together now)
All together now.
(all together now)
All together now.
(all together now)
All together now.
(all together now)

Black, white, green, red
Can I take my friend to bed?
Pink, brown, yellow orange and blue
I love you.

All together now!

[Ghoulish Delight]

And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and down
We’re captive on the carousel of time
We can’t return we can only look behind
From where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game

[Gemini Cricket]

And the seasons they go round and round
...
One of my all time favorite songs. I'd mojo you but it says I can't. :)



"Go to Fred Segal, you'll find them there
Laughing loud so all the little people stare
Looking for a daddy to pay for the champagne
(Drop a name)
What happened to the dreams of a girl president
She's dancing in the video next to 50 Cent
They travel in packs of two or three
With their itsy bitsy doggies and their teeny-weeny tees
Where, oh where, have the smart people gone?
Oh where, oh where could they be?

Maybe if I act like that, that guy will call me back
What a paparazzi girl, I don't wanna be a stupid girl
Baby if I act like that, flipping my blond hair back
Push up my bra like that, I don't wanna be a stupid girl"

[Gemini Cricket]

I'm Mad!

Dr Scratchnsniff: Wake up! It's late!
It's twenty minutes after eight
Everyone get up; it's time to go
Up and at 'em now
Come on; shake a leg
Have some juice and scrambled egg
On the floor and out the door
Let's get on our way.

Dot: Hey, watch out!
Yakko: What's the matter?
Dot: You almost knocked me off the ladder
Yakko: No I didn't
Dot: Yes you did; I almost fell
Yakko: Don't exaggerate
Dot: I'm not
Yakko: Yeah, right
Dot: Are you trying to pick a fight?
Yakko: Will you get out of my face?!
Dot: Well, you're always in my space
Dr Scratchnsniff: Hey get off each other's case
Because we're trying to get along.

Wakko: I want pancakes
Or a waffle
This tastes awful
Is that all we've got?
Can't find my clothes
And I need to blow my nose
And my socks are full holes
And my shoelace has a knot.

Dot: That's my toothbrush
Yakko: No it's not
Dot: Well, it's sitting in my slot
Yakko: No it isn't; this is mine and that one's yours
Dot: Well, you're standing in my way
Yakko: Yeah, that's tough
Dr Scratchnsniff: Alright now that's enough
Everybody get your stuff
Because we're going out the door.

Dr Scratchnsniff: Every time we get into the car
It's so much work
It takes us twenty minutes
While you're driving me berserk
With your playing und your jumping
Und your running all about
When I finally get you inside
You always lock me out!

Dot: I'm mad, I'm mad
I'm really, really, really mad
You poked me with your elbow in my side
Yakko: No I didn't!
Dot: Yes you did
Yakko: Nuh-uh
Dot: You did
And I'm just a little kid
You're lying; don't deny it
Yakko: Oh, I'm gonna hit you
Dot: Yeah, just try it
Dr Scratchnsniff: Will both of you be quiet
'Cause we're driving in a car!

Dot: Ow, he hit me!
Yakko: Ow, she bit me!
Dot: He said he's gonna "get me"
Yakko: No I didn't
Dot: Yes you did!
Dr Scratchnsniff: Alright that's it; now I forbid
Either one of you to say another word!

Wakko: Are we there yet?
I'm tired.
I'm hungry.
How far?
My nose is snotty
Need to move my body
Gotta use the potty
Better stop the car.

Dot: Stop it!
Yakko: No, you stop it
Dr Scratchnsniff: Why can't you both just drop it?
Dot: Well, he started it
Yakko: Oh, yeah, I'm really sure, uh-huh
Dot: Na-ah
Yakko: Uh-uh
Dot: It's your fault
Yakko: No it's not.
Your leg is in my spot
Dr Scratchnsniff: Yakko you be quiet
Und that goes for you too, Dot!

Dr Scratchnsniff: Every time we take a trip
It's always just the same
With the fighting und the biting
Und the calling all those names
Then there's pushing und there's shoving
Und there's scratching on the neck
When we finally get to where we're going
Everyone's a wreck!

YW+D : Yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak!

Dot: I'm mad, I'm mad (Wakko: Are we there yet?)
I'm really, really, really mad (I'm tired.)
You poked me with your elbow in my side (I'm hungry.)
Yakko: No I didn't! (How far?)
Dot: Yes, you did, you did (My nose is snotty)
And I'm just a little kid (Need to move my body)
Dr Scratchnsniff: Will both of you be quiet (Got to use the potty)
'Cause we're driving in a car! (Better stop the car.)

Dr Scratchnsniff: We're here, we're here
Doesn't anybody want to give a cheer?
Yakko: You mean this is where we're all gonna spend the day?
Dot: At the circus?!
Wakko: Hey, guys, look! They got rides!
Dr Scratchnsniff: Now you're satisfied?
Alright, everyone inside
And let's have some fun, okay?

YW+D : Yay!!!

Dot: I'm glad, I'm glad
What a really great time we had
Did you see those lions and those tigers
Weren't they neat?
Dr Scratchnsniff: Are you happy now?
Dot: We are; thanks a lot
I'm sorry that we fought
From now on I'll get along
Yakko: That's alright, Dot; I was wrong
Dr Scratchnsniff: Ah that's nice, now come along
Let's all get in the car.

Dot: You can take the seat you like
You're always so gallant
Yakko: Ah, thank you, Dot, but ladies first
You take the seat you want
Dr Scratchnsniff: Everybody's happy now
We've had a real good day
Und now it's time to go back home
So let's be on our way.

Dot: You hit me
Yakko: No I didn't
Dot: Yes you did. Stop it!
Yakko: No, you stop it
Dot: Move your leg
Yakko: No, you move your leg
Dot: You started it
Yakko: No I didn't, you did
Dot: No I didn't, you did
Yakko: So what?
Dot: You always start it!
Yakko: Don't you cross that line!
Dot: You're not the boss of me!
Yakko: This is where the line is, right here!
Dot: Oh yeah? Since when? Get out of my face! I'm the boss here!
Yakko: Dr Scratchansniff, she started it!

[Gemini Cricket]

"You can do it Its all up to you-mmmmmkay
With a little plan you can change your life tooo-day
You dont have to spend your life addicted to smack
Homeless on the streets giving handjobs for crack
Follow my plan and very soon you will saaayyy, its easy mmkay

Step 1: Instead of "ass" say "buns", like "kiss my buns" or "you're a buns hole"

Step 2: Instead of "sh!t" say "poo", as in "bull poo", "poo head" and this "poo is cold"

Step 3: With "bitch" drop the "t" because "bich" is latin for generosity

Step 4: Dont say "fvck" any more because "fvck" is the worst word that you can say...

So just use the word 'mmmkay'!"

[Gemini Cricket]

"But you cant stop nothing
If you got no control
Of the thoughts in your mind
That you kept in, you know
You don't know nothing
But you don't need to know
The wisdoms in the trees
Not the glass windows
You cant stop wishing
If you don't let go
But things that you find
And you lose, and you know
You keep on rolling
Put the moment on hold
The frames too bright
So put the blinds down low"

[SzczerbiakManiac]

Half past twelve
And I’m watching the late show in my flat all alone
How I hate to spend the evening on my own
Autumn winds
Blowing outside the window as I look around the room
And it makes me so depressed to see the phone
There’s not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won’t somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Movie stars
Find the end of the rainbow, with that fortune to win
It’s so different from the world I’m living in
Tired of TV
I open the window and I gaze into the night
But there’s nothing there to see, no one in sight
There’s not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won’t somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

[Cadaverous Pallor]

I am the biggest hypocrite
I've been undeniably jealous
I have been loud and pretentious
I have been utterly threatened
I've gotten candy for my self-interest
the sexy treadmill capitalist
heaven forbid i be criticized
heaven forbid i be ignored

i have abused my power forgive me
you mean we actually are all one
one
one
one
one
one
one
one
i've been out of reach and separatist
heaven forbid average (whatever average means)
i have been compensated for my days
of powerlessness

i have abused my so-called power forgive me
you mean we actually are all one
one...

[Cadaverous Pallor]

if I make a lot of tinsel then people will want to
if I am hardened no fear of further abandonment
if I am famous then maybe i'll feel good in this skin
if I am cultured my words will somehow garner respect

i would throw a party still it would not come
i would bike run swim and still it would not come
i'd go traveling and still it would not come
I would starve myself and still it would not come

if I am masculine I will be taken more seriously
if I take a break it would make me irresponsible
if i'm elusive I will surely be sought after often
if I need assistance then I must be incapable

i'd be filthy rich and still
it would not come
I would seduce them and still
it would not come
I would drink vodka and still
it would not come
i'd have an orgasm and still
it wouldn't come

if I accumulate knowledge
i'll be impenetrable
if I am aloof no one will know
when they strike a nerve
if I keep my mouth shut the boat
will not have to be rocked
if I am vulnerable I will be
trampled upon

i would go shopping and still
it would not come
i'd leave the country and still
it would not come
i would scream and rebel still
it would not come
i would stuff my face and still
it would not come

i'd be productive and still it would not come
i'd be celebrated still it would not come
i'd the the hero and still it would not come
i'd renunciate and still it would not come

[Cadaverous Pallor]

I sometimes worry that our own Gemini Cricket takes things a little too hard....this song's for him :)

dear dar(lin') your mom (my friend) left a message on my machine
she was frantic
saying you were talking crazy
that you wanted to do away with yourself
I guess she thought i'd be a perfect resort
because we've had this inexplicable connection since our youth
and yes they're in shock
they are panicked
you and your chronic them and their drama
you this embarrassment
us in the middle of this delusion

if we were our bodies
if we were our futures
if we were our defenses i'd be joining you
if we were our culture
if we were our leaders
if we were our denials i'd be joining you

I remember vividly a day years ago
we were camping
you knew more than you thought you should know
you said "I don't want ever to be brainwashed" and you were mindboggling you were intense
you were uncomfortable
in your own skin you were thirsty
but mostly you were beautiful

if we were our nametags
if we were our rejections
if we were our outcomes i'd be joining you
if we were our indignities
if we were our successes
if we were our emotions i'd be joining you

you and i we're like four year olds we want to know why
and how come about everything
we want to reveal ourselves at will and speak out minds
and never talk small and be intuitive
and question mightily
and find god
my tortured beacon
we need to find like-minded companions

if we were their condemnations
if we were their projections
if we were our paranoias i'd be joining you
if we were our incomes
if we were our obsessions
if we were our afflictions i'd be joining you

we need reflection
we need a really good memory
feel free to call me a little more often

[Gemini Cricket]

I sometimes worry that our own Gemini Cricket takes things a little too hard....this song's for him :)

dear dar(lin') your mom (my friend) left a message on my machine
she was frantic
saying you were talking crazy
that you wanted to do away with yourself...

I like it. I do. :)

Here's what's in my head today (and is in no way referring to CP) :D :

"She take my money when I'm in need
Yea she's a trifflin friend indeed
Oh she's a gold digga way over town
That dig's on me..."

[Gemini Cricket]

Wanna pull my hair
Break my back
For the right money might sit in your lap
Back to back I can't even keep track
It's a fact the freaks love to get slapped
Suck my toes, I need a back rub
I don't come to do it
I just wanna be touched
Look at how y'all makin me blush
I'm enough to go around so people don't push
Wanna run that tush in the bush
Don't my diamonds look real good?
And they shine so hard that he glittas
So many karots they look like crittas
And we can do it all night
Take a flashlight to see up in my windpipe
I like to keep a nigga hype
I wanna know can you handle my mic

(I love Missy Elliott!) :)

[MouseWife]

With a high heel against the wall, kind of dancing though not at all
She had stocking running up to her thigh
Snaps her fingers to keep the time
From the back of the room I saw her there
I see she wants to be alone and I shouldn't dare
But then she noticed me glance at her
I had no choice but to dance with her
The lights that move sideways and up and down
The beat takes you over and spins you round
Our hearts steady beating, the sweat turns to cold
We're slaves to the dj and out of control
I watch her feet move, her hips they sway
Does a hair-flip, then starts to say
"Oh my God it's my favorite song!"
I pull her close and she sings along
We can't slow down even if we try, if the record keeps spinning so will I
She likes disco and tastes like a tear
Tells me don't stop dancing and she's pulling me near
We got nowhere to go, we got nothing to prove, instead of dancing alone I
Should be dancing with you
The song is turning me on, the beat is doing me in, or maybe it's only you, but either way let's begin

[Gemini Cricket]

I will love you anyway
Even if you cannot stay
I think you are the one for me
Here is where you ought to be
I just want to satisfy ya
Though youre not mine
I cant deny ya
Dont you hear me talking baby?
Love me now or Ill go crazy

Oh sweet thing
Dont you know youre my everything?
Oh sweet thing
Dont you know youre my everything?
Yes, you are

I wish you were my lover
But ya act so undercover
To love you child my who life long
Be it right, or be it wrong
Im only what you make me, baby
Dont walk away, dont be so shady
Dont want your mind, dont want your money
These words I say, they may sound funny, but...

You are my heat
You are my fire
You make me weak with strong desire
To love you chile my whole life long
Be it right, or be it wrong
I just want to satisfy ya
Though youre not mine
I cant deny ya
Dont you hear me talking baby?
Love me now or Ill go crazy

Youre my heat, you are my fire
Youre not mine, I cant deny ya
Dont you hear me talking, baby?
Love me now, or Ill go crazy

[blueerica]

There is this thing that's like touching except you don't touch
Back in the day it just went without saying at all
All the world's history gradually dying of shock
There is thing that's like talking except you don't talk
You sing
You sing

Sing for the bartender sing for the janitor sing
Sing for the cameras sing for the animals sing
Sing for the children shooting the children sing
Sing for the teachers who told you that you couldn't sing
Just sing

There is thing keeping everyone's lungs and lips locked
It is called fear and it's seeing a great renaissance
After the show you can not sing wherever you want
But for now lets all pretend that we're gonna get bombed
So sing

Sing cause its obvious sing for the astronauts sing
Sing for the president sing for the terrorists sing
Sing for the soccer team sing for the janjaweed sing
Sing for the kid with the phone who refuses to sing
Just sing

Life is no cabaret
We don't care what you say
We're inviting you anyway
You motherf*ckers you'll sing someday...

[blueerica]

Is it bad that I'm fighting putting those words in GIANT SIZED BOLD LETTERING?

I love Sing.

And I made it purple.

[Gemini Cricket]

This song reminds me of our Not Afraid:

Light
And day
Is more than you’ll say
Cause all
My Feelings
Are more
Than I can let by
Or not
More than you’ve got
Just follow the day
Follow the day and reach for the SUN!
You don’t see me fly into the red one more you’re done
Just follow the seasons and find the time
Reach for the bright side
You don’t see me fly into the red one more you’re nuts
Just follow the day
Follow the day and reach for the SUN!
Just follow the day
Follow the day and reach for the SUN!
You don’t see me fly into the red – one more you’re done
Just follow the seasons and find the time
Reach for the bright side
You don’t see me fly into the red – one more you’re nuts
Just follow the day
Follow the day and reach for the SUN!
Just follow the day
Follow the day and reach for the SUN!
Just follow the day
Follow the day and reach for the SUN!

[Not Afraid]

AWWWWW. You've inspired me to pull out my PS cds.

[Gemini Cricket]

That song has been in my head alllll morning. :)

[Gemini Cricket]

"And the sign said 'Long Haired Freaky People need not apply'."

[Capt Jack]

eventually

I'm an opportunity
and I knock so softly
sometimes I get loud
when I wish everybody'd just get off me
so many playas you'd think I was a ball game
it's every man for themself
there are no team mates
this life gets lonely
when everybody wants somethin'
they'll smile up in your face
but they'll get theirs eventually
...and I hope I'm there
surrounded by familiar faces with no names
none of them know me or want to share my pain
they only wish to bask in my light
then fade away
to win my love, to them a game
to watch me live my life in pain
when all is done and the glitter fades, fades away
they'll get their's eventually
...and I hope I'm there
I drank your poison
cuz you told me its wine
shame on you if you fool me once
shame on me if you fool me twice
I didn't know the price
you'll get yours eventually
so what good am I to you if I can't be broken?
you'll get yours,
yes you'll get yours
eventually

[Gemini Cricket]

I love to sing-a
about the moon-a
and the June-a
and the spring-a
I love to sing-a
of a sky so blue
and a tea for two...

[Gemini Cricket]

I don't believe you know me,
Although you know my name.
I don't believe the faults I have
Are only mine to blame
I don't believe in magic,
Is only in the mind
I don't believe I'd love somebody
Just to pass the time..

But I believe in you
And I believe in you

I don't believe that beauty,
Will ever be replaced
I don't believe a masterpiece
Could ever match your face
The joker's always smiling
In every hand thats dealt
I dont believe that when you die
Your presence isn't felt

But I believe in you
And I believe in you
But I believe in you
And I believe in you

And if you ever have to go away
Nothing in my world could ever be the same
Nothing lasts for ever, but together 'til then
I'll give you everything I have again and again

[Gemini Cricket]

I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that place.
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much space

And when you're out there
Without care,
Yeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much

Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Possibly

And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice, that's my only advice

Come on now, who do you, who do you, who do you, who do you think you are,
Ha ha ha bless your soul
You really think you're in control

Well, I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me

My heroes had the heart to Lose their lives out on a limb
And all I remember is thinking, I want to be like them
Ever since I was little, ever since I was little it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence I've come
And I can die when I'm done

Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Possibly

[Cadaverous Pallor]

I love that song, GC.

[blueerica]

God only knows what I'd be without youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.........

(That song has been in my head all day!)

I may not always love you
But long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
Ill make you so sure about it

God only knows what Id be without you

If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me

God only knows what Id be without you

God only knows what Id be without you

If you should ever leave me
Well life would still go on believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me

God only knows what Id be without you

[Prudence]

Ally - I dedicate these lyrics to you!

No, wait, that came out wrong....

Never mind. Grab your best hairbrush-microphone, jump on top of your bed, and belt it!

Well I heard that you're leavin' (leavin')
Gonna leave me far behind (so far behind)
'Cause you found a brand new lover
You decided that I'm not your kind (aahh..)

So I pulled (I pulled) your name out (name out) of my Rolodex (oohh..)
And I tore all your pictures in two
And I burned down the malt shop where we used to go
Just because it reminds me of you (dippity dippity doo)

That's right (that's right) you ain't gonna see me cryin'
I'm glad (I'm glad) that you found somebody new
'Cause I'd rather spend eternity eating shards of broken glass
Than spend one more minute with you

I guess I might seem kinda bitter
You got me feeling down in the dumps
'Cause I'm stranded all alone in the gas station of love
And I have to use the self-service pumps

Oh, so honey, let me help you with that suitcase
You ain't (you ain't) gonna break my heart in two
'Cause I'd rather get a hundred thousand paper cuts on my face
Than spend one more minute with you

I'd rather rip out my intestines with a fork
Than watch you going out with other men
I'd rather slam my fingers in a door (yah)
Again and again and again and again and again

Oh, can't you see what I'm tryin' to say, Darlin...

I'd rather have my blood sucked out by leeches (leeches)
Shove an icepick under a toenail or two
I'd rather clean all the bathrooms in Grand Central Station with my tongue
Than spend one more minute with you

Yes, I'd rather jump naked on a huge pile of thumbtacks
Or stick my nostrils together with crazy glue
I'd rather dive into a swimming pool filled with double-edged razor blades
Than spend one more minute with you

I'd rather rip my heart right out of my ribcage with my bare hands
and then throw it on the floor and stomp on it 'till I die
Than spend one more minute with you

[Gemini Cricket]

2 songs stuck in my head today:

"Don't it always seem to go, that you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone..."

AND

"When you're where you should be all the time, and when you're not you're with some underworld spy or the wife of a cloaksman, wife of a cloaksman..."

Darn hippie earworms. :D

[Gemini Cricket]

I, I'm so in love with you
Whatever you want to do
Is all right with me
'Cause you make me feel so brand new
And I want to spend my life with you

Since, since we've been together
Loving you forever
Is what I need
Let me be the one you come running to
I'll never be untrue

Let's, let's stay together
Lovin' you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad

Whether times are good or bad, happy or sad

Why, why some people break up
Then turn around and make up
I just can't see
You'd never do that to me (would you, baby)
Staying around you is all I see
(Here's what I want us to do)

Let's, we oughta stay together
Loving you whether, whether
Times are good or bad, happy or sad...

[tracilicious]

Oh noose tied myself in, tied myself too tight
Looking kind of anxious in your cross armed stance
Like a bad tempered prom queen at a homecoming dance
And I claim I’m not excited with my life any more
So I blame this town, this job, these friends
The truth is it’s myself
And I’m trying to understand myself
And pinpoint where I am
By the time I get things figured out
I’ve change the whole damn plan
Oh noose tied myself in, tied myself too tight
Talking **** about a pretty sunset
Blanketing opinions that I’ll probably reget soon
I’ve changed my mind so much I cant even trust it
My mind changed me so much I cant even trust myself

[CoasterMatt]

Now lemme tell you a story
The devil he has a plan
A bag a bones in his pocket
Got anything you want
No dust and no rocks
The whole thing is over
All these beauties in solid motion
All those beauties, gonna swallow you up

Hi hi hi hi hi,
One time too many
Too far to go
I- we come to take you home

And when they split those atoms
Its hotter than the sun
Blood is a special substance
They gonna pray for that man

So wake up young lovers
The whole thing is over
Watch but touch monkeys
All that blood, gonna swallow you whole

Hi hi hi hi hi
Whats that? whos driving?
Where we goin? who knows?
I- we come to take you home

How many people do you think I am
Pretend I am somebody else
You can pretend Im and old millionaire
A millionaire washing his hands
Rattle the bones, dreams that stick out
A medical chart on the wall
Soft violence and hands touch your throat
Evryone wants to explode

And when your hands get dirty
Nobody knows you at all
Dont have a window to slip out of
Lights on, nobody home

Click click- see ya later
Beta beta- no time to rest
Pika pika- risky business
All that blood, will never cover that mess.

Hi hi hi hi hi
So soft hard feelings
Whats that, whos driving
No tricks lets go
I- we come to take you home
I- we come to take you home
Hi hi hi hi hi

[Gemini Cricket]

Hi hi hi hi hi

And strapped on our guitars!

With tons of screaming fans.

So come and join the band!

This day will soon be at an end and now it's even sooner

[SacTown Chronic]

Lump sat alone in a boggy marsh,
totally emotionless except for her heart
Mud flowed up into lump's pajamas
she totally confused all the passing pihranas

She's lump, she's lump
She's in my head
She's lump, she's lump, she's lump
She might be dead

Lump lingered last in line for brains
and the one she got was sorta rotten and insane
Small things so sad that birds could land
Is lump fast asleep or rockin' out with the band?

She's lump, she's lump
She's in my head
She's lump, she's lump, she's lump
She might be dead

Lump was limp and lonely and needed a shove
Lump slipped on a kiss and tumbled into love
She spent her twenties between the sheets
Life limped along at sub-sonic speeds

She's lump, she's lump
She's in my head
She's lump, she's lump, she's lump
She might be dead

Is this lump outta my head?
I think so
Is this lump outta my head?
I think so
Is this lump outta my head?
I think so
Is this lump outta my head?

[CoasterMatt]

River, river, carry me on
Living river, carry me on
River, river, carry me on
To the place where I come from

So deep, so wide, will you take me on your back for a ride
If I should fall, would you swallow me deep inside
River, show me how to float, I feel like I'm sinking down
Thought that I could get along

But here in this water, my feet won't touch the ground
I need something to turn myself around
Going away, away toward the sea
River deep, can you lift up and carry me
Oh roll on through the heartland
'Til the sun has left the sky
River, river, carry me high

'Til the washing of the water, make it all alright
Let your waters reach me, like she reached me tonight

Letting go, it's so hard, the way it's hurting now
To get this love untied
So tough to stay with this thing, ‘cos if I follow through
I face what I denied
I'll get those hooks out of me
And I'll take out the hooks that I sunk deep in your side
Kill that fear of emptiness, that loneliness I hide

River, oh river, river running deep
Bring me something that will let me get to sleep

In the washing of the water will you take it all away
Bring me something to take this pain away

[CoasterMatt]

Nothing can come between us
Nothin gets you down
Nothing strikes your fancy
Nothing turns you on
Somebody is waiting in the hallway
Somebody is falling down the stairs
Set someone free, break someone's heart
Stand up help us out
Ev'rything is divided
Nothing is complete
Ev'rything looks impressive
Do not be deceived
You don't have to wait for more instructions
No one makes a monkey out of me
We lie on our backs, feet in the air
Rest and relaxation, rocket to my brain
Snap into position
Bounce till you ache
Step out of line
And you end up in jail
Bring me a doctor
I have a hole in my head
But they are just people
And I'm not afraid
Doctor Doctor
We have nothing in our pockets
We continue
But we have nothing left to offer
Faces pressed against the window
Hey! they are just my friends
Check this out don't be slick
Break our backs it goes like this . . .
We are born without eyesight
We are born without sin
And our mama protects us
From the cold and the rain
We're in no hurry
sugar and spice
We sing in the darkness
We poen our eyes (open up)
I can't believe it
And people are strange
Our president's crazy
Did you hear what he said
Business and pleasure
Lie right to your face
Divide it in sections
And then give it away
There are no big secrets
Don't believe what you read
We have great big bodies
We got great big heads
Run-a-run-a-run it all together
Check it out - still don't make no sense
Makin' flippy floppy
Tryin to do my best
Lock the door
We kill the beast
Kill it!

This song makes me think of LoT, and puts a big ole smile on my face :D

[Gemini Cricket]

Step out of line
And you end up in jail...
That reminds you of LoT?! :D
Yeah, that innerSpaceman, he's mean!
:D

[CoasterMatt]

The song's called "Making Flippy Floppy"

[Capt Jack]

Life On My Own

living risky, never scared
wander closer to the edge
nothing valued...think no fear
always wondering why you're here
all your purposes are gone
nothing's right and nothing's wrong
nothing ventured, nothing gained
feel no sorrow, feel no pain

kiss me while I'm still alive
kill me while I kiss the sky
let me die on my own terms
let me live and let me learn
now I follow my own way
and I'll live on to another damn day
freedom carries sacrifice
remember when this was my life?

looking forward, not behind
everybody's got to cross that line
free me now to give me a place
keep me caged and free the beast
falling faster, time goes by
fear is not seen through these eyes
what there was will never be
now I'm blind and cannot see

kiss me while I'm still alive
kill me while I kiss the sky
let me die on my own terms
let me live and let me learn
now I follow my own way
and I'll live on to another damn day
freedom carries sacrifice
remember when this was my life.

Yeah!, come on, come on, come on, come on
Now touch me, baby
Cant you see that I am not afraid?
What was that promise that you made?
Why wont you tell me what she said?
What was that promise that you made?
Now, Im gonna love you, till the heavens stop the rain
Im gonna love you
Till the stars fall from the sky for you and i
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Now touch me, baby
Cant you see that I am not afraid?
What was that promise that you made?
Why wont you tell me what she said?
What was that promise that you made?
Im gonna love you, till the heavens stop the rain
Im gonna love you
Till the stars fall from the sky for you and i
Im gonna love you, till the heavens stop the rain
Im gonna love you

It's so bright, it's a light
It's a so out of sight
It's a feelin' all right
Morning, noon or night
It's the best thing in life
That you don't have to buy
It's a funny funny feelin'
Down in your heart

It's a neat, it's a treat
It's a somethin' that's sweet
It's the one thing in life
That will never be beat
It's the one sits inside you
And loses the key
That's that funny funny feelin'
Down in your heart

It's a love, it's a love, it's a love
It's the funny funny feelin'
Down in your heart

Let it into your heart
And you'll feel this funny feelin'
Let it in, then together
We'll join in harmour love
Let it in, for the beat of your heart
Will keep the rhythm
Let it smile on the outside
And sing in harmour love

It's a pen, it's a friend
It's a how have you been
It's a I'm lookin' forward
To seeing you again
It's a laugh, it's a grin
It's a let it begin
It's that funny funny feelin'
Down in your heart

It's a walk through the park
It's a kiss in the dark
It's a vow made by two
That they never will part
It's the spark that you feel
From the moment it starts
Known as that funny funny feelin'
Down in your heart

It's a love, it's a love, it's a love
It's the funny funny feelin'
Down in your heart

Let it into your heart
And you'll feel this funny feelin'
Let it in, then together
We'll join in harmour love
Let it in, for the beat of your heart
Will keep the rhythm
Let it smile on the outside
And sing in harmour love

I'm in an odd mood today.

***********

Fat and docile, big and dumb
They look so stupid, they aren't much fun
Cows aren't fun


They eat to grow, grow to die
Die to be et at the hamburger fry
Cows well done

Nobody thunk it, nobody knew
No one imagined the great cow guru
Cows are one

He hid in the forest, read books with great zeal
He loved Che Guevera, a revolutionary veal
Cow Tse Tongue

He spoke about justice, but nobody stirred
He felt like an outcast, alone in the herd
Cow doldrums

He mooed we must fight, escape or we'll die
Cows gathered around, cause the steaks were so high
Bad cow pun

But then he was captured, stuffed into a crate
Loaded onto a truck, where he rode to his fate
Cows are bummed

He was a scrawny calf, who looked rather woozy
No one suspected he was packing an Uzi
Cows with guns

They came with a needle to stick in his thigh
He kicked for the groin, he pissed in their eye
Cow well hung

Knocked over a tractor and ran for the door
Six gallons of gas flowed out on the floor
Run cows run!

He picked up a bullhorn and jumped up on the hay
We are free roving bovines, we run free today

We will fight for bovine freedom
And hold our large heads high
We will run free with the Buffalo, or die
Cows with guns

They crashed the gate in a great stampede
Tipped over a milk truck, torched all the feed
Cows have fun

Sixty police cars were piled in a heap
Covered in cow pies, covered up deep
Much cow dung

Black smoke rising, darkening the day
Twelve burning McDonalds, have it your way

We will fight for bovine freedom
And hold our large heads high
We will run free with the Buffalo, or die
Cows with guns

The President said "enough is enough

These uppity cattle, its time to get tough"
Cow dung flung

The newspapers gloated, folks sighed with relief
Tomorrow at noon, they would all be ground beef
Cows on buns

The cows were surrounded, they waited and prayed
They mooed their last moos,
they chewed their last hay
Cows out gunned

The order was given to turn cows to whoppers
Enforced by the might of ten thousand coppers
But on the horizon surrounding the shoppers

Came the deafening roar of chickens in choppers

We will fight for bovine freedom
And hold our large heads high
We will run free with the Buffalo, or die
Cows with guns

[Not Afraid]

I was a teenage werewolf
Braces on my fangs
I was a teenage werewolf
And no one even said thanks
And no one made me stop

I ran a two-minute mile
I had to blow my top
In the teen full moon
No one could make me stop
No one could make me stop

A teenage werewolf
A pair of little boys
A teenage girlfriend
Got her lot of scars
Somebody please make me stop
Ohhh please…

You know, I have puberty rights
And I have puberty wrongs
No one understood me
All my teeth were so long
And no one made me stop

A Midwest monster
Of the highest grade
All my teachers thought
It was growing pains, oh no no
Somebody stop this pain, ohhh…

[Snowflake]

I'm singing in the rain
Just singing in the rain
What a glorious feelin'
I'm happy again
I'm laughing at clouds
So dark up above
The sun's in my heart
And I'm ready for love
Let the stormy clouds chase
Everyone from the place
Come on with the rain
I've a smile on my face
I walk down the lane
With a happy refrain
Just singin',
Singin' in the rain

[Prudence]

Still in an odd mood.

Meet James Ensor
Belgium's famous painter
Dig him up and shake his hand
Appreciate the man
Before there were junk stores
Before there was junk
He lived with his mother and the torments of Christ
The world was transformed
A crowd gathered round
Pressed against his window so they could be the first
To meet James Ensor
Belgium's famous painter
Raise a glass and sit and stare
Understand the man
He lost all his friends
He didn't need his friends
He lived with his mother and repeated himself
The world has forgotten
The world moved along
The crowd at his window went back to their homes
Meet James Ensor
Meet James Ensor
Belgium's famous painter
Dig him up and shake his hand
Appreciate the man

[SzczerbiakManiac]

When nature's callin'
Don't be stallin'
Use your common sense
Before you let it flow
Find a place to go
Just don't whiz on the electric fence

If you're gonna explode
You can use the commode
Of igloos, cave dwellings or tents
No need to explain when you gotta drain
Just don't whiz on the electric fence

You can swizzle on the sofa
Piddle in the air
Tinkle in the toilet
That's why it is there

You can let it rain
In the breakdown lane
While waving at ladies and gents
Just don't whiz on...
Don't whiz on
Don't whiz on the electric fence.

We can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind
Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance
Well they're are no friends of mine
I say, we can go where we want to, a place where they will never find
And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind.

I love that site. They have the video for 'Total Eclipse of the Heart' there. So great, so cheesy. It was one of my favorite videos as a kid. I wanted to be a school teacher so bad! :D

[Gemini Cricket]

When you grow up
Livin' like a good boy oughta
And your mama
Takes a shine to her best son
Something different
All the girls they seem to like you
Cause you're handsome
Like to talk and a whole lot of fun

But now your girl's gone a missin'
And your house has got an empty bed
The folks'll wonder 'bout the wedding
They won't listen to a word you said

[Chorus]
Gonna take your mama out all night
Yeah we'll show her what it's all about
We'll get her jacked up on some cheap champagne
We'll let the good times all roll out
And if the music ain't good, well it's just too bad
We're gonna sing along no matter what
Because the dancers don't mind at the New Orleans
If you tip 'em and they make a cut

Do it
Take your mama out all night
So she'll have no doubt
That we're doing oh the best we can
We're gonna do it
Take your mama out all night
You can stay up late
'cause baby you're a full grown man

It's a struggle
Livin' like a good boy oughta
In the summer
Watchin' all the girls pass by
When your mama
Heard the way that you'd been talking
I tried to tell you
That all she'd wanna do is cry

Now we end up takin' the long way home
Lookin' overdressed wearin' buckets of stale cologne
It's so hard to see streets on a country road
When your glasses in the garbage
And your Continental's just got towed

[Not Afraid]

We'll get her jacked up on some cheap champagne - I love that line.

[Gemini Cricket]

We'll get her jacked up on some cheap champagne - I love that line.
Yes and I have you to thank for introducing me to the Scissor Sisters, oh wise Music Guru. :)

[Not Afraid]

Yes, I held you hostage in my car in the parking lot of the Block and made you listen. :evil:

[Gemini Cricket]

When I realized I liked them, I stopped trying to chew through my restraints.
:D

[Not Afraid]

Riding through the city on my bike all day
Cause the filth took away my licence
It doesn't get me down and I feel ok
Cause the sights that I'm seeing are priceless

Everything seems to look as it should
But I wonder what goes on behind doors
A fella looking dapper, but he's sittin with a slapper
Then I see it's a pimp and his crack whore

You might laugh you might frown
Walkin' round London town

Chorus
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why ?
Would I wanna be anywhere else
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why ?
Would I wanna be anywhere else

When you look with your eyes
Everything seems nice
But if you look twice
you can see it's all lies

There was a little old lady, who was walkin down the road
She was struggling with bags from Tesco
There were people from the city havin lunch in the park
I believe that it's called al fresco
Then a kid came along to offer a hand

But before she had time to accept it
hits her over the head, doesn't care if she's dead
Cause he's got all her jewellery and wallet

You might laugh you might frown
walkin round London town

Chorus
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why?
Would I wanna be anywhere else
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why?
Would I wanna be anywhere else

When you look with your eyes
Everything seems nice
But if you look twice
you can see it's all lies

Life, that's city life, yeah that's city life, that's city life
Life, that's city life, yeah that's city life, that's city life

Chorus
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why?
Would I wanna be anywhere else
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why?
Would I wanna be anywhere else

Whatsoever Ive feared has come to life
Whatsoever Ive fought off became my life
Just when everyday seemed to greet me with a smile
Sunspots have faded
And now Im doing time
Cause I fell on black days

Whomsoever Ive cured Ive sickened now
Whomsoever Ive 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

[blueerica]

Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick,
and think of you
caught up in circles confusion--
is nothing new
Flashback--warm nights--
almost left behind
suitcases of memories,
time after--

sometimes you picture me--
I'm walking too far ahead
you're calling to me, I can't hear
what you've said--
Then you say--go slow--
I fall behind--
the second hand unwinds

chorus:
if you're lost you can look--and you will find me
time after time
if you fall I will catch you--I'll be waiting
time after time

after my picture fades and darkness has
turned to gray
watching through windows--you're wondering
if I'm OK
secrets stolen from deep inside
the drum beats out of time--

chorus:
if you're lost...

you said go slow--
I fall behind
the second hand unwinds--

chorus:
if you're lost...
...time after time
time after time
time after time
time after time

[MouseWife]

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



Ah, yes. A song that is 'mine' also. I tell my kids Cornell is a genius, listen to the lyrics {I don't just look at the man....:D }....

Pretty Noose is another one I've been feeling....:rolleyes:

[Tramspotter]

Its up to you
You know it is
I cant convince you
All you have to do is
Slow down
Ive always said
It will never change
All you have to do
Just you be you
I mean thats all I want to say
All these things
That I told you
I didnt mean at all
I didnt mean at all
Id forget you
So if you come here
If you come here
All you have to do
Just you be you
I mean thats all I need to say to you

[Chernabog]

Well I am gonna quote Bjork here of course..... this particular song is about my life, or at least, about my life as it was a few years ago. It still totally applies though.

Bjork, "Enjoy"

I wish I were to stay here
I wish this be enough
I wish I only love you
I wish simplicity

Look at the speed out there
It magnetizes me to it
And I have no fear
I'm only into this to
Enjoy

I wish I'd only look
And didn't have to touch
I wish I'd only smell this
And didn't have to taste

How can I ignore
When this is sex without touching?
I'm going to explore
I'm only into this to
Enjoy

[MouseWife]

Lyrically, I am looking for a cd by 'Peeping Tom'....

Can you just imagine what I get when I google? :rolleyes:

I've decided not to click....

I think I need to just go in to Circuit City....

[blueerica]

I love myself
I want you to love me
When I'm feelin' down
I want you above me
I search myself
I want you to find me
I forget myself
I want you to remind me Chorus:
I don't want anybody else
When I think about you
I touch myself
I don't want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no
You're the one who makes me happy honey
You're the sun who makes me shine
When you're around I'm always laughing
I want to make you mine
I close my eyes
And see you before me
Think I would die
If you were to ignore me
A fool could see
Just how much I adore you
I get down on my knees
I'd do anything for you
Chorus
I love myself
I want you to love me
When I'm feelin' down
I want you above me
I search myself
I want you to find me
I forget myself
I want you to remind me
Chorus
I want you
I don't want anybody else
And when I think about you
I touch myself
Ooh, oooh, oooooh, aaaaaah

[Gemini Cricket]

I touch myself
Ooh, oooh, oooooh, aaaaaah
Miss blueerica! I'm shocked. Shocked! :blush: :D

I love that song.

------------------

Oaria rai?
Oba Oba Oba
Mas que nada
Sai da minha frente
Eu quero passar
Pois o samba esta animado
O que eu quero e sambar
Este samba
Que e misto de maracatu
e samba de preto velho
Samba de preto tu
Mas que nada
Um samba como esse tao legal
Voce nao vai querer
Que eu chegue no final

[blueerica]

It's been in my head since last night.... Ay ay ay...

[Isaac]

Just one kiss
on my lips
was all it took to seal the future
Just one look
from your eyes
was like a certain kind of torture
Once upon a time
there was a boy
and there was a girl
Just one touch
from your hand
was all it took to make me falter

Forbidden love
Are we suppose to be together?
Forbidden love
Forbidden love
Forbidden love
We seal our destiny forever
Forbidden love
Forbidden love

Just one smile
on your face
Was all it took to change my fortune
Just one word
from your mouth
Was all I needed to be certain
Once upon a time
There was a boy
and there was a girl
Hearts that intertwine
They lived in a different kind of world

Forbidden love
Are we suppose to be together?
Forbidden love
Forbidden love
Forbidden love
We seal our destiny forever
Forbidden love
Forbidden love

Just one kiss
Just one touch
Just one look
Just one love

We chased lady luck 'til we finally struck Bonanza!
With a gun and a rope and a hatful of hope, we planted our family tree
We got a hold of a pot full of gold-Bonanza!
With a horse and a saddle and a rakeful of cattle,
How rich could a fella be?

On this land, we put our brand, Cartwright is the name
Fortune smiled the day we filed the Ponderosa claim

Here in the West, we're living in the best Bonanza!
If anyone fights any one of us- he's gonna fight with me
Hoss and Joe and Adam know every rock and pine
No one works, fights or eats, like those boys of mine

Here we stand in the middle of a grand Bonanza!
With a gun and a rope and hatful of hope we planted our family tree
We got a hold of a potful of gold- Bonanza!
With a houseful of friends where the rainbow ends, how rich could a fella be?

On this land, we put our brand ,
Cartwright is the name
Fortune smiled the day we filed
The Ponderosa claim

Here in the west we're living in the best Bonanza!
With the friendliest sprite and the stubbornest man
that ever set foot in the promised land
And we're happier than them all
That's why we call it Bonanza!!!

*sigh* enjoying pics from the Ponderosa and so sad it is closed....

[scaeagles]

I'm in an odd mood today.

Fat and docile, big and dumb

Cows aren't fun.....

[Not Afraid]

From the last Keane album (which is just ok) but I like this song a lot.

I don't wanna be adored
Don't wanna be first in line
Or make myself heard
I'd like to bring a little light
To shine a light on your life
To make you feel loved

No, don't wanna be the only one you know
I wanna be the place you call home

I lay myself down
To make it so, but you don't want to know
I give much more
Than I'd ever ask for


Will you see me in the end
Or is it just a waste of time
Trying to be your friend
Just shine, shine, shine
Shine a little light
Shine a light on my life
Warm me up again

Fool, I wonder if you know yourself at all
You know that it could be so simple

I lay myself down
To make it so, but you don't want to know
You take much more
Than I'd ever ask for


Say a word or two to brighten my day
Do you think that you could see your way

To lay yourself down
And make it so, but you don't want to know
You take much more
Than I'd ever ask for

[Prudence]

Sure to be in my head for weeks to come:


With cat-like tread,
Upon our prey we steal;
In silence dread,
Our cautious way we feel.
No sound at all,
We never speak a word,
A fly’s foot-fall
Would be distinctly heard.

Come, friends, who plough the sea,
Truce to navigation;
Take another station;
Let’s vary piracee
With a little burglaree!
With cat-like tread
Upon our prey we steal;
In silence dread
Our cautious way we feel.

[Gemini Cricket]

Talk 2 me lover
Come on tell me what u taste
Didn't your mama tell u
Life is 2 good 2 waste? (put your love down)
Didn't she tell u
That lovesexy was the glam of them all?
If u can hang, u can trip on it
U surely wont fall (put your love down)
No side effects and
The feeling last 4-ever
Straight up - it tastes good
It makes u feel clever (put your love down)
U kiss your enemies
Like u know u should
Then u jerk your body
Like a horny pony would (put your love down)
U jerk your body like a horny pony would
Now run and tell your mama about that!

[MouseWife]

Such a lonely day
And it's mine
the most loneliest day of my life

Such a lonely day
Should be banned
It's a day that I can't stand

the most loneliest day of my life
the most loneliest day of my life

Such a lonely day
Shouldn't exist
It's a day that I'll never miss

Such a lonely day
And it's mine
The most loneliest day of my life

And if you go
I wanna go with you
And if you die
I wanna die with you
take your hand
And walk away

The most loneliest day of my life

Such a lonely day
And it's mine
It's a day that I'm glad I survived

[€uroMeinke]

I am Governor Jerry Brown
My aura smiles
And never frowns
Soon I will be president...

Carter Power will soon go away
I will be Fuhrer one day
I will command all of you
Your kids will meditate in school
Your kids will meditate in school!

[Chorus:]
California Uber Alles
California Uber Alles
Uber Alles California
Uber Alles California

Zen fascists will control you
100% natural
You will jog for the master race
And always wear the happy face

Close your eyes, can't happen here
Big Bro' on white horse is near
The hippies won't come back you say
Mellow out or you will pay
Mellow out or you will pay!

[Chorus]

Now it is 1984
Knock-knock at your front door
It's the suede/denim secret police
They have come for your uncool niece

Come quietly to the camp
You'd look nice as a drawstring lamp
Don't you worry, it's only a shower
For your clothes here's a pretty flower.

DIE on organic poison gas
Serpent's egg's already hatched
You will croak, you little clown
When you mess with President Brown
When you mess with President Brown

I blame you and blueerica and possibly CP. You guys make me spend money.
I thought, 'Okay, it's finally time to listen to these guys.' Then I do and realize I've been dancing to their stuff for years now at all the gay clubs.
Dang you, NA. There's money out the door. :D

I love them.

Yes, but it is money well spent.

Bingo

[mousepod]

She spun her car into a field
& through a hole in the windshield
she saw the marvellous revealed
in the everyday.

She saw far out into space
through the sockets in her face.
She saw everything in place
& nothing in her way.

She saw the thinness of a dime,
saw a slug secreting slime,
as if for the first time.
Purified by flame,
nothing had a name,
nothing looked the same.

She'd come so far so fast
but she could not outpace her past,
it had caught up with her at last.

Others looked but never saw
the glory apprehended raw
down to the smallest flaw
in the grand design.

[mousepod]

listening to my iPod in shuffle... haven't heard this in a while until moments ago:

The first mushroom
Makes room for my mind
To get inside the magic room
Of Dionysus' house

Time is over
War is over
I am safe and sound
I live and love
I drink and eat
I can leap and bound
Now I am dying all my life away
As well as I am being reborn
Day after day

The second mushroom
Makes room for my body
To get inside the tragic room
Of Dionysus' house

Time is on
War is all
I am busy and sad
From mists of pain
I rise and fall
Like an endless rain
Now I am doing what I have to do
Fulfilling all my will of conquest
Moon after moon

The last mushroom
Makes room for the unknown
I get inside the secret room
Of an unthinkable house
In which I feel the grace
In which I get to be the space
From which I see the earth
Exploding into a light
That the last mushroom aroused

The last mushroom
Atomic mushroom

I song came on my MP3 player while working out today and made me think of GC - or more specifically Ralphie - if you substitute Ralphie for Roger -

Labratory rats made Roger a fink
and he laws of science drove him to drink
working for the taste of public acclaim
and a cure that bore his name
Nobel prizes would have been nice
but he lost his mind to renegade mice
Roger traded dreams of man of the year
for an understanding shrink

[Eliza Hodgkins 1812]

In Between the place you thought
You’d be and where you are
Check my pulse if I’m living
Fine time to be alive
Feel the breeze touch the water
I’ll feel better
There’s no way I’d rather pass the time

Wandering aimlessly….

[Bornieo: Fully Loaded]

From the moment that we met
My world was turned around
Upside down
To some degree I still regret
My memory for keeping you around
Girl I thought that you were mine
But my broken hearts been shattered
One too many times
And I don't want to see you anymore
I'm just not that strong
I love it when you're here,
But I'm better when you're gone
I'm certain that I've given and oh how you can take
There's no use in you looking
There's nothing left for you to break
Baby please release me
Let my heart rest in pieces

[Gemini Cricket]

You ain't got no kind of feeling inside
I got something that will sure 'nuff set your stuff on fire
You refuse to put anything before your pride
I got something that will knock all your pride aside

Tell me something good (tell me, tell me, tell me)
Tell me that you love me
Tell me something good (tell me, tell me, tell me)
Tell me that you like it, yeah

I love dancing
Crazy romancing
Fellas advancing constantly
Marriage is for old folks
Old folks, not for me!
One husband
One wife
Whaddya got?
Two people sentenced for life!
I love singing
Good healthy clinging
Quietly bringing on a spree
Marriage is for old folks
Cold folks!
One married he
One married she
Whaddya got?
Two people watchin' tv!
I'm not ready
to quit bein' free
And I'm not willing
to stop being me
I've gotta sing my song
Why should I belong
to some guy who says
that I'm wrong?
Doo doo dooo
de doo de doo
de-doo de-doo
doo doo doo
dooo
Cookin' dinner
Lookin' no thinner
Gray elbows and
a sudsy sea
Marriage is for old folks
Cold folks,
and it's not for me!
One husband
One wife
Whaddya got?
Two people sentenced for life!
I'm exploding
with youth and with zest
Who needs corroding
in some vulture's nest?
I've gotta fly my wings
Go places, do things
My freedom bell's really
gonna ring!
Doo doo dooo....(etc.)
I've been through years
Too many blue years
Now I want New Year's every eve
Marriage is for old folks
Marriage is for cold folks
One husband
One wife
Whaddya got?
Two people sentenced for life
Marriage is for old folks
Marriage is for cold folks
Not for me
Can't you see
Marriage ain't for me

Ooo oooohhhh
Ooo oooohhhh
Come on and dance, come on and dance
Let's make some romance
You know the night is fallin'
And the music's callin'
And we've got to get down to Swingtown

We've been workin' so hard
We've been workin' so hard
Come on baby
Come on baby let's dance
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on

Ooo oooohhhh
Ooo oooohhhh
Come on and dance, come on and dance

You know the night is fallin'

It's not easy having yourself a good time
Greasing up those bets and betters
Watching out they don't four-letter
Fuc k and kiss you both at the same time
Smells-like something I've forgotten
Curled up died and now it's rotten

I'm not a gangster tonight
Don't want to be a bad guy
I'm just a loner baby
And now you're gotten in my way

I can't decide
Whether you should live or die
Oh, you'll probably go to heaven
Please don't hang your head and cry
No wonder why
My heart feels dead inside
It's cold and hard and petrified
Lock the doors and close the blinds
We're going for a ride

It's a bitch convincing people to like you
If I stop now call me a quitter
If lies were cats you'd be a litter
Pleasing everyone isn't like you
Dancing jigs until I'm crippled
Slug ten drinks I won't get pickled

I've got to hand it to you
You've played by all the same rules
It takes the truth to fool me
And now you've made me angry

I can't decide
Whether you should live or die
Oh, you'll probably go to heaven
Please don't hang your head and cry
No wonder why
My heart feels dead inside
It's cold and hard and petrified
Lock the doors and close the blinds
We're going for a ride

Oh I could throw you in the lake
Or feed you poisoned birthday cake
I wont deny I'm gonna miss you when you're gone
Oh I could bury you alive
But you might crawl out with a knife
And kill me when I'm sleeping
That's why

I can't decide
Whether you should live or die
Oh, you'll probably go to heaven
Please don't hang your head and cry
No wonder why
My heart feels dead inside
It's cold and hard and petrified
Lock the doors and close the blinds
We're going for a ride

There's only so much you can learn in one place
The more that I wait, the more time that I waste

I haven't got much time to waste
It's time to make my way
I'm not afraid of what I'll face
But I'm afraid to stay
I'm going down my road and I can make it alone
I'll work and I'll fight till I find a place of my own

Are you ready to jump
Get ready to jump
Don't ever look back oh baby
Yes, I'm ready to jump
Just take my hand
get ready to jump

We learned out lesson from the start
My sisters and me
The only thing you can depend on
Is your family
Life's gonna drop you down like a limb from a tree
It sways and it swings and it bends until it makes you see

Are you ready to jump
Get ready to jump
Don't ever look back oh baby
Yes, I'm ready to jump
Just take my hand
get ready to jump

Are you ready?

There's only so much you can learn in one place
The more that you wait
The more time that you waste

I'll work and I'll fight till I find a place of my own

It sways and it swings and it bends until you make it your own

I can make it alone [repeat]
(my sisters and me)

Are you ready to jump
Get ready to jump
Don't ever look back oh baby
Yes, I'm ready to jump
Just take my hand
get ready to jump

Are you ready to jump
Get ready to jump
Don't ever look back oh baby
Yes, I'm ready to jump
Just take my hand
get ready to jump

Is that the soundtrack to the new documentary about the Golden Gate Bridge ?

[blueerica]

"So what are you doing back?"
"Well, I set back and thought about the days we used to do.
It really mean a lot to me, you mean a lot to me."
"I really mean that much to you?"
"Girl, you know it's true."

[CoasterMatt]

She's right peculiar
She'll try and fool ya
But the girl keeps coming apart

She's so appealing
Right off the ceiling
Yeah, the girl keeps coming apart

What did I tell ya
She buy and sell ya
'Cause the girl keeps coming apart

She's so affected
I'm so rejected
And the girl keeps coming apart
Don't, don't, don't, don't let it get me down
Don't let it get me down

She's just a screamer
A nightmare dreamer
Yeah the girl keeps coming apart

She's like a call girl
Loose ends and all girl
But the girl keeps coming apart

White lace and leather
She's so together
But the girl keeps coming apart

I feel so sedated
Boxed up and crated
'Cause the girl keeps coming apart
Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't
Let it get me down
Don't let it get me down

So there she was
Buns up and kneelin'
I was wheelin' and a dealin'
My ace in the hole so to speak

This is my song of the moment.

Hey there Delilah
What's it like in New York City?
I'm a thousand miles away
But girl tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
Time Square can't shine as bright as you
I swear it's true

Hey there Delilah
Don't you worry about the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice it's my disguise
I'm by your side

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me

Hey there Delilah
I know times are getting hard
But just believe me girl
Someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar
We'll have it good
We'll have the life we knew we would
My word is good

Hey there Delilah
I've got so much left to say
If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath away
I'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall
We'd have it all

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me

A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
and we'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
Delilah I can promise you
That by the time we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame

Hey there Delilah
You be good and don't you miss me
Two more years and you'll be done with school
And I'll be making history like I do
You know it's all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there Delilah here's to you
This ones for you

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me.

A LONG DRESS



What is the current that makes machinery, that makes it crackle, what is the current that presents a long line and a necessary waist. What is this current.
What is the wind, what is it.

Where is the serene length, it is there and a dark place is not a dark place, only a white and red are black, only a yellow and green are blue, a pink is scarlet, a bow is every color. A line distinguishes it. A line just distinguishes it.

[MouseWife]

You know what to do, you know what I did
Since you know everything just clue me in
I am such a wreck, I am such a mess
I know what I know, why don't you fill in the rest?
I will bring you down, I will make it bad
While you're feelin' proud, why don't you help me?


You know what to say, you know what I said
You know what I dream sleeping in my bed
You hold all the keys, you know all the roads
Why don't you guide me in, if I'm such a lost soul?
I'm spinnin' 'round, I will make you ill
Since I'm so broken down, why don't you fix me?


I am haunted when I am sleeping
Try to give without receiving
It's in the applebite (It's in the applebite)
It's in the days and nights (It's in the days and nights)
In the afterlife we'll reap



Such a shame that I wouldn't know by now
Your revelations
Cut me in, I don't wanna live without
Your revelations
Such a shame, such a shame
that I wouldn't know by now
Cut me in, I don't wanna live without

Your revelations

Revelations

[Gemini Cricket]

"Your heart is not open so I must go
The spell has been broken, I loved you so
Freedom comes when you learn to let go
Creation comes when you learn to say no

You were my lesson I had to learn
I was your fortress you had to burn
Pain is a warning that something's wrong
I pray to God that it won't be long
Do ya wanna go higher?

There's nothing left to try
There's no place left to hide
There's no greater power
Than the power of good-bye

Your heart is not open so I must go
The spell has been broken, I loved you so
You were my lesson I had to learn
I was your fortress

There's nothing left to lose
There's no more heart to bruise
There's no greater power
Than the power of good-bye

Learn to say good-bye
I yearn to say good-bye"

[CoasterMatt]

Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone my senses reeled
A fatal attraction is holding me fast
How can I escape this irresistible grasp?

Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earthbound misfit, I

Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
No navigator to find my way home
Unladen, empty and turned to stone

A soul in tension that's learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earthbound misfit, I

Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night

There's no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, a state of bliss
Can't keep my mind from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earthbound misfit, I

[Capt Jack]

...I think the past, the past is behind us
Be real confusing if not, but anyway...

"Heal Over"
- K T Tunstall

It isn't very difficult to see why
You are the way you are
Doesn't take a genius to realise
That sometimes life is hard
It's gonna take time
But you'll just have to wait
You're gonna be fine
But in the meantime

Come over here lady
Let me wipe your tears away
Come a little nearer baby
Coz you'll heal over
Heal over
Heal over someday

And I don't wanna hear you tell yourself
That these feelings are in the past
You know it doesn't mean they're off the shelf
Because pain's built to last
Everybody sails alone
Oh, but we can travel side by side
Even if you fail
You know that no one really minds

Come over here lady
Let me wipe your tears away
Come a little nearer baby
Coz you'll heal over
Heal over
Heal over someday

Don't hold on but don't let go
I know it's so hard
You've got to try to trust yourself
I know it's so hard, so hard

Come over here lady
Let me wipe your tears away
Come a little nearer baby
Coz you'll heal over
Heal over
Heal over someday

But he can never fail
No one but the pure in heart
May find the golden grail
Oh oh - oh oh
Flash!
