American Hi-fi - The Art Of Losing
Last call now I'm outta time
And I don't got no valentine
Singled out, now I stand alone
The underdog in a modern world
Suburbia is hot tonight
But nothing seems to feel alright
I don't want your sympathy
I just need a little therapy
At least that's what they say to me
Hey ho let's go
I'm gonna start a riot
You don't wanna fight it
One two fuck you
Don't tell me what to do
I don't wanna be like you
Can't you see it's killing me
I'm my own worst enemy
Knock me down I'll keep on moving
It's the art of losing
Fit the mold and do what you're told
Get a job and start growing old
9 to 5 can make your dreams come true
But I don't wanna be like you
I'm not cool and I'll never be
I break the rules and I guarantee
I don't want your sympathy
I just need a little therapy
At least that's what they say to me
Hey ho let's go
I'm gonna start a riot
You don't wanna fight it
One two fuck you
Don't tell me what to do
I don't wanna be like you
Can't you see it's killing me
I'm my own worst enemy
Knock me down I'll keep on moving
It's the art of losing
You call me a loser
Say I'm just a user
But I'll just keep on moving
Cause that's the art of losing
Hey ho let's go
I'm gonna start a riot
You don't wanna fight it
One two fuck you
Don't tell me what to do
I don't wanna be like you
Can't you see it's killing me
I'm my own worst enemy
Knock me down I'll keep on moving
It's the art of losing
Wahhhooo (It's the art of losing)
Wahhhooo (It's the art of losing)
We're the kids
We're the kids
We're the kids in America
We're the kids
We're the kids
We're the kids in America
Chubb Rock - I Am What I Am
[Verse One]
Here we go, ha ha
Thou shalt not have no other great one but me
Transcribin my lyrics is the C-H-U-B
The lyrics that you hear is not his but mine
While, biblical words don't need to ra-hyme
I said, "Let there be a light," and there was light
and the breeze (?), like that kid who made "I-Ight"
But men took mad dominion, over men
Hard bondage with backs and, knees that must bend
but only in prayer, I make your head need Ibuprof'/Bayer
Call me, the number one player
But hey.. the one pharoahes, parlayed
in the land of Egypt, when that slave shit behaved
Bythia(?) drew me, from the Nile to smile on the people
After me there will be a sequel
And I'll praise my name, in the jam
Call me what you want, but I am what I am
[Verse Two]
Hehe, I live in the souls of men, and women
and pilgrims and children who wiggle, to the rhythm
Just go, the people have corrupted themselves
They toke the devil's smoke, puffing their L's
I'll send, my only son down, to bless you
and observe how you know him, and that will test you
Years, of sufferation, will burn the nation
with adultery, skirt-chasin and crotch-blazin
You never learn - look how many times I kilt ya
I burnt ya, I drowned ya, I froze ya
I stripped your land and destroyed ya culture
Next time you better give me some
R-E-S-P-E (C-T) now hold ya but I love ya
I invented AIDS but also, invented the rubber
Each one teach one brother
Take my name in vain and you're gone like damn
Call me what you want, but I am what I am
[Verse Three]
Ha ha
Now you got light skin, dark skin, East coast, West coast
Old school, new school, dumb-ass fools
One land, one people, I am the one
Figure you disobeyed so I made the word "nigger"
You can change the diction, but can't change what I'm writin
I script those Pulitzer books for that kid, Michael Crichton
like {*tch tch tch*} I am the hi-hat
I am the M-I-C, I am Easy Mo Bee
and Easy Mo is me, he gets down when I want him to get down
I put the heights in the crown
I wrote the dead sea scrolls, I'm "Strictly Business"
I made Erick and Parrish go gold
My crew is tan, darker than tan, I made the Ku Klux Klan
I made Rush +Def+ but, able to +Jam+
I'm flam, and I'm intricate
You must and should be a fan and I am what I am
[Verse Four]
The praise of the "Goodfella" is long past done
DeNiro's an actor, on cue, totin a gun
ACTION! Forty-five colt bolt, it gets messy
then copycat murders flow to Joe Schmoe Pesci
Then the ladies, sex, to the break of dawn and
another quaalude, and she'll love me in the mornin
Fast pace, "Scarface," you can't win, God's race
when you're sparkin Noah's Ark, and you're in God's place
Baby - cock up your foot and you act crazy
Every "Distinguished Gentleman" wants a lady
You can't bug, when you wanna play real life cocoa
when you're "Down and Out in Beverly Hills" with Oprah
"Mi Vida Loca," and then it turns to weed smokers
Then you're dead, dealin with them kids from +cosa nostra+
But no autographs you must, already be a fan
I am what I am and that's all that I am
Savatage - The Dungeons Are Calling
Down in the dungeons
Of concrete and terror
Candles light the way
Can you hear me say?
The dungeons are calling
The dungeons are calling for me
I can't escape
This den must be hell
Pleasures of freedom
Denied me in this cell
I steal from my friends
Victims of my pain
Its nearing the end
I live like the dead
The dungeons are calling
Calling for me--oh!
The dungeons are calling
The rack waits for me
Down in the dungeons
I'm locked away
Suicide ride
I take everday
Prisoner in hell
Victim in pain
The dungeons are calling for me
None of my friends
Want to come out and play
They think i'm crazy
But what can i say?
Prisoner in hell
Victim in pain
It's nearing the end
I live like the dead
The dungeons are calling
Calling for me
The dungeons are calling
The rack waits for me
The Waterboys - Higher In Time
The mountain is steep
the ditches are deep
The task in hand
is making us weep
But here`s a promise
(I intend to keep
/
That I mean to keep)
Seed it in your mind
and say it each night
Before you sleep:
we will climb higher in time
(och!)
You`ve got a head full of trouble
and a ship to build
(You think you won`t make it
but you know you will
You feel you need your
cup refilled
Fill it out of mine
we`ll drop the defenses,
Pool our skill
/
Your heart you`re hiding
it`s making you ill
You feel like you want to have your
sporran refilled
Well, fill it out of mine
let the soulful water
Overspill)
and we will climb higher in time
I`ve been to the bottom
I`ve been on the train
I`ve slept in the gutter
with my head in a drain
I`ve been brutally proud
I`ve been mortally shamed
But this is not a crime
I`m just learning, my friends,
That it`s all in the game
and we will climb higher in time
(Och!)
Climb higher in time
climb higher in time
Mindy Smith - Jolene
(feat. Dolly Parton)
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him just because you can
Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your voice is soft like summer rain
And I cannot compete with you, Jolene
He talks about you in his sleep
And there's nothing I can do to keep
From crying when he calls your name, Jolene
But I can easily understand
How you could easily take my man
But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him just because you can
You could have your choice of men
But I could never love again
He's the only one for me, Jolene
I had to have this talk with you
My happiness depends on you
And whatever you decide to do, Jolene
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him just because you can
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can
Jolene, Jolene

La Ley - El Duelo
Con una lagrima de fe sobre tu piel
olvide la grieta que dejo tu amor
pero ese instinto taurino de tu ser
me obligo a azotarte tiernamente
Sin dolor no te haces feliz
sin dolor no te haces feliz
sin amor...
no sufres mas
Toda esa noche provocaste ver en mi
lo que a nadie muestro en la intimidad
pero ese tipo de mirada que hay en ti
me obligo a matarte lentamente
Sin dolor no te haces feliz
sin dolor no te haces feliz
sin amor... lentamente
Sin dolor no te haces feliz
sin dolor no te haces feliz
sin amor
no sufres mas
Twista - Razzamatazz / Jazzamatazz
[VERSE 1]
Oh - back again makin the rhythm kick jazz
Used to be wick-wack, now I got funky pizzazz
Idryss'll do my fade-up cause he cuts em like class
And the chicks want me to lick cause I'm too quick, I think I'll pass
Dollars, if I don't fold em, I roll em like a bolo
Other steppin to brothers cause he be God? Oh no
G-o-d, I be not he, it's true, don't call me loco
And my man Eric the Wiz will stir the mini mix up like Coco
Cut like Michael Myers, start up fires, I'm a scar hard
Thinkin I be wimpy, I just simply rip em far apart
Ansaars in New York, I know that you know that you are God
This brother's from Chicago, so I guess I'm a Chigagod
Rhythm is my producer of rhythms on the wax
The posse Lower Level be kickin some funky tracks
Never ask, I ax, I get madder than Max
Diggem smacks, if they try to tax I play em like a sax
[CHORUS]
Rock - me call it what?
(Razzamatazz)
Rock - me call it what?
(Jazzamatazz)
[VERSE 2]
Styles, I hand em, I brand em like cattlecakes
Better get flows from your bros if a battle takes
I hear a hiss, the tale of a taddle shakes
Backs this breaks givin aches to the rattlesnakes
I get spunky with funky stylin
Rhythms I flow, I kick them wild and
Tryin to get with the styles I'm pilin
For your sob story I better get the violin
Come again - watch a fun one construct
I don't like sissy chickens and I hate a sucker duck
Some label me a sucker because ducks I like t pluck
The only way I be a sucker is if women wanna suck
Always goin broke so I don't dig into my stash
I'm cool as Brian Robbins on the show _Head of the Class_
If you don't get the picture, make the camera go flash
When this rhythm was a baby, doc spanked him on his - jaz
[CHORUS]
[VERSE 3]
Study my culture, soar like a vulture
My teacher Marvin Howard will create my sculpture
I'm kickin Islam, some brothers try to bomb
Facts can harm but I still say Salaam
Sometimes I blush, bust and leave puss
Hush if I must, plus I don't forget to flush
With suckers I fuss, thought I was soft like a slush
Chicagods crush cause they think toys r us
Hip (hip what) hop
This funky hip (hip what) hop
Is funky hip (hip what) hop
This funky hip (hip what) hop
'll make a drip (drip what) drop
I like to rip (rip what) shop
I always slip (slip what) cops
Reachin the tip (tip what) top
Come in again
Buck-buck, my rhythm be knockin at the do'
Mi stamina rock, mi stamina rock, bloodclot, I do not know
Why they judge me by one rap and say too fast I flow
Even though I kinda thought I said it slow - oh
[CHORUS]
Barbra Streisand - Taking A Chance On Love
Here I go again
I hear those trumpets blow again
All aglow again
Taking a chance on love
Here I come again
I`m gonna make things hum again
Acting dumb again
Taking a chance on love
I walk around with a horseshoe
In clover I lie
And brother rabbit of course you
Better kiss your feet good-bye
I`ll hang ball again
I`m riding for a fall again
I`m gonna give my all again
Taking a chance on love
Absu - Never Blow Out The Eastern Candle
[Lyrical Magick: Proscriptor, Musick: Shaftiel & Equitant]
Never Blow Out The Eastern Candle
Your five-fold kiss was rather invoking;
Beside the chancel is your unphallic wand,
And use it wisely in order to fly.
MOONFIRE!
ALLAXITOS!
My jewel is the lust from your kiss;
Your breasts made me the lover of the three-fold locus,
So take thy hand and join me for elixir,
And we shall ride the portentous serpent tonight.
Your five fold tongue has defiled me,
I'm stranded by the tree of Storax
Thus, we banish your unphallic wand,
In order to make our nexus ecstasy
MOONFIRE!
CUM TO ME.
ALLAXITOS!
CUM WITH THEE.
NEVER BLOW OUT THE EASTERN CANDLE!
NEVER BLOW OUT THE EASTERN CANDLE!
NEVER BLOW OUT THE EASTERN CANDLE!
FOREVER
Esra Balamir - Beni Unutamazsın
Mutluluktan görmüyordu gözlerim
Saftı kalbim, değmemişti el bile
Günler geçtikçe, artıyordu hislerim
Anlamazdım bazen yalnız gezmemi Zorlasamda olmuyor,
Her şey bitti bir günde Oooof Gel dön desende,
Dönmez gönlüm eski haline
Bilsen neler çektim, kendi kendime
Sen dön desende,
Dönmez gönlüm eski haline
Kopartıp attım, bağırdım özgürce Her gün ağlardım,
Güldün ardımdan
Yeni bir gün başlarken,
Düş düş yakamdan
Laurie Anderson - World Without End
I remember where I came from There were burning buildings and a fiery red sea I remember all my lovers I remember how they held me. World without end remember me. East. The edge of the world. West. Those who came before me. When my father died we put him in the ground. When my father died it was like a whole library Had burned down. World without end remember me.
Billy Bragg - Like Soldiers Do
Like Soldiers Do
Blues eyes fighting the grey eyes fighting the tears
Armed to the teeth for a war of words
Reaching all the years
I advanced across a poppy field
I saw the gleam as you raised your shield
And love screamed down
With the sun behind its back
Our fathers were all soldiers,
Shall we be soldiers too
Fighting and falling like soldiers do
Nothing is clear in this tactical unclear war
I can't be bothered to find out
What we are fighting for
No one can win this war of the senses
I see no reason to drop my defences
So stand fast my emotions,
Rally round my shaking heart
Our fathers were all soldiers,
Shall we be soldiers too
Fighting and falling like soldiers do
Blue eyes fighting the grey eyes fighting the tears
Armed to the teeth for a war of words
Reaching all the years
I advanced across a poppy field
I saw the gleam as you raised your shield
And love screamed down
With the sun behind its back
I knew once again i was under attack
So stand fast my emotions,
Rally round my shaking heart
Our fathers were all soldiers,
Shall we be soldiers too
Fighting and falling like soldiers
Fighting and falling like soldiers
Fighting and falling like soldiers do
Tankard - Positive
Deep in the gut, deep inside of me
There it is, everywhere
Look at me go, watch it grow
Into my place
Couldn't find myself in the mirror today
Who's that fading face? Oh, no!
Waiting for the one that'll blow me away
Rollercoaster rides, oh, no!
Tell me what you see when you look at me
Is it more than my HIV?
Tell me what you see when you look at me
Is it more?
Dying weaves quilts of sympathy
Cover me, cover me!
Feeble and blind, weak and dazed
Lover hold me tight
Couldn't see a thing in the mirror today
Tell me that's your name? Oh yeah!
Waiting for the one that'll blow me away
Full blown all the way, oh no!
Blood and tears shed for years and years
Will it end, will it end?
This is a war, hope, despair
Battle every day
Can you see yourself in the mirror today?
Tell me, what's your name? Oh yeah!
I can see my face and I know this is me
I'm not giving up myself
Erkin Koray - Bir Gün Geçti
>
Bir gün geçti aradan bir yıl geçti sandım
Seni ne kadar çok sevdiğimi anladım
Sen benim kaderimin verdiği en güzel en şirin dertsin
Sen benim dertlerimin en güzeli en şirinisin
Günler gelip geçiyor hayal olup gidiyor
Kader bir gün olsun benden yana gülmüyor
Sen benim kaderimin verdiği en güzel en şirin dertsin
Sen benim dertlerimin en güzeli en şirinisin
Kardinall Offishall - Breakdown (keep Moving) (featuring Denosh)
I just started, just finished
Lyrics complete the circle of a rap singer
Combine with feeling mean and plus a reason
And to rock it for the season
And niggas on the lookout
Take away your strips of General status, baddest
Always move them anyways
Creep only when I attack my rap squad are fake Gods
Faker than their tongue, strung out
From the tongue out bring out fraudulence
To the audience 'cause they are conveyors of pestilence
Maintenance is heaven sent (sense)
The pretense, I blow up to create a science based on reliance
In fact, you will agree, that it is to be a real emcee
Such as he who's I, clear the third eye to reveal I
I remain the high emcee, the Kardinal, Mr. Ritchie
Niggas in control over and above thee
Took the lyricy, for I will be the nigga to lead
The sea of lost souls to see the light
Forever in the night time
Write rhymes, lock lines, lyrical stop signs
Making mental envision the precision and quick to descend
The decision, is yours I go on the drink Coors
And rock encores for packed floors, yo
We keep moving
Keep on moving (keep moving, don't stop (don't stop it)
Keep rocking (keep rocking y'all)
Keep on moving (keep moving, don't stop (don't stop it)
Keep rocking (keep rocking y'all)
[Kardinal Offishall]
On some new stuff
The native son like Richard Pryor
'Cause we move ta, your expeditions must be tight
I light a torch and look at a tunnel
'Cause brothers are after what they can see
So when I make your moves, yo they be after me
And my entourage, will flexes connects your mind
With a cause, some will kill for a yard
Hard is the state of my people nowadays
Slinging rock can change a man's mind many ways
When are you seen as a dollar for a killing
Killing for a dollar is as easy as the rhyme scheme of Top Billin'
Making a million itch, a billion itch
Where niggas they be building itch, to chill and itch
For the future, the new world order
I'm showing you that I will be ordering itch
Inside the new world, doing what I got to do to make Brown for my seeds
I will bleed before a man tries to make a step outta me
Function on higher levels like a Shoalin Priest on Hydro
I can see time flies yo
So when we making moves, you either with me
Yo what skills you lack so weak niggas step back and keep moving
In the midst like Betty Crocker, once said by God's son
Twice spoken by Kardinal, ooh, check how I flow
So many niggas up inside the Circle without purpose, singing with the F
To the train trying to fat up their purses
Prophecy disperses like some oil inside of water
Niggas prepare of the slaughter, overseen like a father
?????? like a white collar crime
Up in the blue collar world
That's why I wear a mandarin to avoid the sin
Niggas of the F.O.S., we the monopoly
The Trivial Pursuit of making loot, they never stopping me
But one day I will make a G, times I buy another G
Mr. Super road in life, manager troop
Back with the Figures Of...
I'm hailing up the fifty herbs, stale in the house
And some people think it's shitty that I rock and it's a pity
You know the busi-ness, while I'm riding in my auto breathing L and drinking Guinness
Keep moving
I got honeys in the room getting it on
And they ain't leaving 'til six in the morning
T-dot O-dot
Feel it, uh
Here we here we here we go
Usher - Introlude 8701
8701
Man it's been a long time coming
But I never forgot about you
I'm here
Yeah, we've traveled the world
Seen a lot of places, so many faces
We had a good time - we've grown together
Who would've thought we'd stay down this long, heh?
This is my chance to share my world with you
And I know you're gonna like it
Are you ready?
Queen Adreena - Razorblade Sky
i rip open
clouds with no faces
she undoes herself
for a slice of your pie
razorblade sky
razorblade sky
i quench your thirst
i bleed you dry
help you make your bed
come undone
razorblade sky
razorblade sky
identifying marks
our history picked out in stars
we rip open the firmamment
razorblade sky
razorblade sky
sky, sky, sky
sky, sky, sky
sky, sky, sky
sky, sky.....
"forever and ever and ever."
Eminem - Hailies Song
Yo, I can't sing - I feel like singing
I want to fuckin sing
Cause I'm happy - yeah, I'm happy, haha!
I got my baby back
Yo, check it out...
Somedays I sit, starin out the window
Watchin this world pass me by
Sometimes I think, there's nothin to live for
I almost break down and cry
Sometimes I think I'm crazy; I'm crazy, oh so crazy!!
Why am I here? Am I just wastin my time?!
But then I see my baby, suddenly I'm not crazy!!
It all makes sense when I look into her eyes
Cause sometimes it feels like the world's on my shoulders
Everyone's leanin on me
Cause sometimes it feels like the world's almost over
But then she comes back to me
My baby girl, keeps gettin older
I watch her grow up with pride
People make jokes, cause they don't understand me
They just don't see my real side
I act like shit don't phase me; inside it drives me crazy!!
My insecurities could eat me alive
But then I see my baby, suddenly I'm not crazy!!
It all makes sense when I look into her eyes
Man if I could sing, I'd keep singin this song to my daughter
If I could hit the notes, I'd blow somethin as long as my father
to show her how I feel about her, how proud I am that I got her
God, I'm a daddy, I'm so glad that her mom didn't {want her}
Now you probably get this picture from my public persona
that I'ma pistol packin drug addict who bags on his mama
But I wanna to just take this time out to be perfectly honest
cause there's a lot of shit I keep bottled that hurts deep inside of my soul
And just know that I grow colder the older I grow
This boulder on my shoulder gets heavy and harder to hold
and this load is like the weight of the world, and I think my neck is breakin
Should I just give up or try to live up to these expectations?
Now look, I love my daughter more than life in itself
but I got a wife that's determined to make my life livin hell
But I handle it well, given the circumstances I'm dealt
So many chances, man, it's too bad, coulda had someone else
But the years that I've wasted is nothin to the tears that I've tasted
So here's what I'm facin - three felonies, six years of probation
I've went to jail for this woman, I've been to bat for this woman
I've taken bats to people's backs, bent over backwards for this woman
Man, I should have seen it comin, what'd I stick my penis up in?
Wouldn't have ripped the pre-nup up if I'da seen what she was fuckin
But fuck it, it's over, there's no more reason to cry no more
I got my baby, baby the only lady that I adore, Hailie
So sayonara, try tommorrow, nice to know ya
Our baby's traveled back to the arms of her rightful owner
And suddenly it seems like my shoulder blades have just shifted
It's like the greatest gift you can get, the weight has been lifted
And now it don't feel like the world's on my shoulders
Everyone's leanin on me
Cause my baby knows that her daddy's a soldier
Nothing can take her from me
Wooo! Told you I can't sing
Oh well, I tried
Hailie, remember when I said, if you ever need anything
Daddy would be right there? Guess what?
Daddy's here, and I ain't going nowhere baby
I love you {*smooch*}

Şebnem Ferah - Ben Şarkımı Söylerken
İçimde bir ateş yanıyor, bedenim dar gelir oldu,
ateşime ister körüklerle gel ister suyla,
istediğin kadar konuş benimle, istediğin kadar yalan söyle,
beni ben yapan içimdeki sesleri susturamazsın.
içine girdiğin küçük kaygan deliği yeni ve büyük bir dünya mı sandın?
istersen bir aynayla yardım edeyim ama umursamazsın.
merak etmeden duramıyorum, geceleri nasıl uyuyorsun?
beni boşver kendine cevap ver lütfen bu kez dürüst olur musun?
ben şarkımı söylerken istersen sesi açarsın
istersen kısıp bunu da yok sayarsın
kimbilir belki gülümser belki ağlarsın
yüreğimdeki sesleri susturamazsın.
bir yanım seni hala düşünüyor,
bir yanım sana fena kızgın
yalnız sen ve ben biliyoruz olanları, unutturamazsın
sakın nefret ettiğimi düşünme bende böyle duygular barındıramazsın,
geçmiş hiç yaşanmamış gibi davransan da baştan yazamazsın.
Wallflowers - Be Your Own Girl
I know you`re tired of waking up on the floor
Pushed to the edge with nothing heavy to hold
Using your clothes as a blanket and a bed
Holding your hands just to lay your head
I know you don`t remember ever falling down
Who picked you up, who gathered around
But you don`t have to be his girl
And you don`t have to be my girl
You can always be your own girl
With the sound of your feet you follow yourself to sleep
Restless and ageless and looking for somethin` to keep
When you finally fall asleep you`re awake in dreams
Hanging by the ankles in a skeleton ravine
I know you`ve kicked the lights, fell on your shoes
Punched out the colors, leaving you the blues
But you don`t have to be his girl
And you don`t have to be my girl
You can always be your own girl
There`s a soft melody that`s ringing in my ears
Simple and slow and it always brings you here
With broken crayons you`ve scribbled on the wall
Shapes of nothing and shadow box them all
Your fingertips are broke and your knees don`t bend
Your imagination took the worst hit and cut it`s skin
But you don`t have to be his girl
You don`t have to be my girl
You can always be your own girl
There`s a soft melody that`s ringing in my ears
And it`s the same one you could never avoid in yours
And if you lay down you can hear from tongue to tails
About a tattooed rhythm and drumming by color wheel
Your rung is broken on the bottom of the rope
And you can`t tie another, another knot of hope
And you don`t have to be his girl
And you don`t have to be my girl
You can always be your own girl
The Cranes - Jewel
if I could keep
this moment here
live away
get away
and now I feel you
cross my heart
shining shining
like a jewel
ooh
put me high on a wall
and let's not fall
let's not fall
sweet dreams I remember it all
I remembered it all
doo te doo...
if I could keep this hour
and hold you gently next to me
it would sparkle like a jewel
and all this means so much to me
you know it's gone
it's gone to fast

Asia - Tell Me Why
Tell me why,
I don't believe in you.
I don't believe it's true.
I don't believe in you.
Happens nearly every time,
If you let them, they'll control your mind,
Yes your mind.
But that was only yesterday,
So you had to wash your head in hate.
In hate, in hate.
Tell me why,
I don't believe in you.
I don't believe it's true.
I don't believe in you.
Shall we stand against the wind?
Staring at the justice of their sins,
Their sins.
What have they done to live this way?
In a modern world, the fragile pay
They pay, oh yes they pay.
Tell me why,
I don't believe in you.
I don't believe it's true.
I don't believe in you.
Better Off - Roulette
You'll never know what it's like.
I've given up the fight.
It only takes one from six to make it all end.
You'll never see when I go.
You're not gonna know what to do,
or what to say.
And I'm ready to take the easy way out.
Out of this place, and out of your life.
It won't be long before you forget me now.
It won't be long before you forget I'm gone.
Anywhere but here seems like its the place to be.
Anywhere but here feels like home,
and I've got to get away.
Anywhere but here feels like its the place for me.
Anywhere but here feels like home,
and I've got to get away.
I'll never be ready to leave this place.
I'll never be ready to say goodbye.
I'll never go, I know that I couldn't.
But the thought just crossed my mind.
Elvis Presley - I Don`t Wanna Be Tied
(Words & music by Giant - Baum - Kaye)
I want my share of love, it might as well be known
But I ain`t thinking of one girl to love alone
That ain`t the way it`s gonna be, I`m on my own and I am free
And I`ve been satisfied, so I don`t wanna be tied
Somebody`s loving arms can sure be sweet I`ve found
But I want no-one`s arms to ever hold me down
Once I get caught inside a net I`m gonna run I bet
I`m gonna run and hide, I don`t wanna be tied
I`ve seen lovers who were matched, they thought that love could stay
Once they cared and got attached, it seems that love just slipped away
Don`t want no claims on me,
don`t want no chains that bind
As anyone could see
I say what`s on my mind
Well there ain`t nothing I conceal, I`m gonna play the field
The field of love is wide ,
I don`t wanna be tied
The field of love is wide,
I don`t wanna be tied
The field of love is wide,
I don`t wanna be tied
I said I don`t, I don`t wanna be, I don`t wanna be tied
Aimee Mann - 4th Of July
Today`s the fourth of July
another June has gone by
and when they light up our town I just think
what a waste of gunpowder and sky
I`m certain that I am alone
in harbouring thoughts of our home
it`s one of my faults that I can`t quell my past
I ought to have gotten it gone
Oh, baby, I wonder -
if when you are older -
someday-
you`ll wake up
and say, `My God, I should have told her -
what would it take?
But now here I am and the world`s gotten colder
and she`s got the river down which I sold her.`
So that`s today`s memory lane
with all the pathos and pain
another chapter in a book where the chapters are endless
and they`re always the same
a verse, then a verse, and refrain
Oh, baby, I wonder -
if when you are older -
someday-
you`ll wake up
and say, `My God, I should have told her -
what would it take?
But now here I am and the world`s gotten colder
and she`s got the river down which I sold her.`
Billy Bragg - The Internationale
Stand up, all victims of oppression
For the tyrants fear your might
Don`t cling so hard to your possessions
For you have nothing, if you have no rights
Let racist ignorance be ended
For respect makes the empires fall
Freedom is merely privilege extended
Unless enjoyed by one and all
Chorus:
So come brothers and sisters
For the struggle carries on
The Internationale
Unites the world in song
So comrades come rally
For this is the time and place
The international ideal
Unites the human race
Let no one build walls to divide us
Walls of hatred nor walls of stone
Come greet the dawn and stand beside us
We`ll live together or we`ll die alone
In our world poisoned by exploitation
Those who have taken, now they must give
And end the vanity of nations
We`ve but one Earth on which to live
And so begins the final drama
In the streets and in the fields
We stand unbowed before their armour
We defy their guns and shields
When we fight, provoked by their aggression
Let us be inspired by like and love
For though they offer us concessions
Change will not come from above
Words: Billy Bragg Music: Pierre Degeyter
Nightwish - Dark Chest Of Wonders
Once I had a dream
And this is it
Once there was a child`s dream
One night the clock struck twelve
The window open wide
Once there was a child`s heart
The age I learned to fly
And took a step outside
Once I knew all the tales
It`s time to turn back time
Follow the pale moonlight
Once I wished for this night
Faith brought me here
It`s time to cut the rope and fly
Fly to a dream
Far across the sea
All the burdens gone
Open the chest once more
Dark chest of wonders
Seen through the eyes
Of the one with pure heart
Once so long ago
The one in the Big Blue is what the world stole from me
This night will bring him back to me
Fly to a dream...
Imogen Heap - Useless
I am a mirror, with no reflection
I am a razor, without my blade
I am the daylight, when the moon shines no
Who will want to make my sandcastle thats already made
I feel so useless, do you
Speak to an ear deaf to my voice
Look through your fear, still blind to my way
I reach to hold you, but i dont feel you there, do you
Even realise im here am i just wasting away?
No wasting away
Living, inside you play
My dying prayer, sealed in a scream
Unwelcome, and a concious dream
I am your whore, without a name
I climb to fall, to begin again, to begin again
I climb to fall, suffer, hatred, deceit and pain
Anger, regret, loving in vain
I am an arrow, with no direction
My life your tarot, my picture your fate
I'm your becoming, so ill always be nothing
If i ever break away from you that day forth, youll be living
My hate
Oh god help his fate
I'll watch you, watch you suffocate
Jack Johnson - Middle Man
Well he's not necessarily trying to say that he minds it
But someone plays evil tricks on that kid
Well he's not necessarily trying to say god can't be trusted
But someone plays evil tricks on that kid
And certain situations scream for deviations
But somehow he always gets stuck in the middle
Of this and that and man he should try less
Because every time he's rejected man he loses affection
But don't we all, don't we just got to give a little time
Maybe give a friend a call instead of making him confused
What a terrible thing for you to do
What an awful thing for you to say
What a terrible thing for you to relay
Well I know some people's they got a little less than nothing
But still find some to spare
And other people got more than they could use
But they don't share
And some people got problems man
They got awful complications
Other people got perfect situations
With no provocation
But don't we all, don't we just got to give a little time
Maybe give a friend a call instead of making him confused
What a terrible thing for you to do
What an awful thing for you to say
What a terrible thing for you
Confused
What a terrible thing for you to do
What an awful thing for you to say
What a terrible thing for you to relay
Somehow we always get stuck in the middle
Confused, what an awful thing for you to do
Confused, what an awful thing for you to say
Genesis - Ballad Of Big
Big Jim Cooley commanded respect, whatever he wanted he could get.
The badge on his waistcoat shone in the sun.
It ain't no lie, Big Jim was feared by everyone.
In the saloon one evening Big took a bet
with a rancher whose name I forget.
He wanted a herd taken over the plain,
and he called Jim `yellow', he'll never do that again.
He got mad!
He threw his badge on the floor and walked out,
he's gonna give it a try, he left no doubt.
"Must be mad, must be mad"!
The people wished him well, and good luck.
"Hell, I don't need it"! He laughed , got on
his horse and rode away.
Over on the trail, Jim 'n' his crew of five
were trying their best to keep the cattle alive.
The weather was hard, but so were the men,
Though I don't think even Jim'll try this trip again.
His horses were edgy, sensing trouble ahead,
but the trouble didn't start till the men were in bed
A-whooping and a-hollering and flashing their knives,
Big and his men were jumped by an all-star Indian tribe.
He was scared, Big Jim was scared
Alive, they called him lucky, but not today.
Cos he died like all good cowboys with his boots on next to his men.
Big Jim, he still won't lie down,
for him the bet is still on.
Some say he rides there, cursing still.
Some say they've seen him.
Rodney Atkins - The Love We Make
I'm not the man you see in all those movies
Or read about in all those fashion magazines
I won't build you monuments
Or fill your purse with rubies
Baby that's not me
But I will hold you while you're sleeping
And I will be there when you wake
And we can fill up the whole world
With all the love we make
I may never be a man of great position
Never be a new aged sensitive guy
But I will hear you every time you whisper
I'll feel it when you cry
And I will hold you while you're sleeping
And I will be there when you wake
And we can fill the seven seas
With all the love we make
Till the last day of forever
I know we'll be joined together
And I will stand by you
I'll be loving you
And I will hold you while you're sleeping
And I will be there when you wake
And we can fill up the whole world
With all the love we make
All the love we make baby
All the love we make
Evil Child - Anti-sfc
Modesty went punk
a girl, they tried to flunk
have junkies as teachers
and prissy white preachers
they don`t know what they`re saying
they`re always complaining
cuz nobody`s paying attention
so they give you a detention
and make you clean
like some damn machine
all the students want to leave
so stop trying to spred your belief
Jayhawks - The Liquor Store Came First
The liquor store came first
And drove my baby from my arms
It was all a game that led me down that road
The liquor store came first
The liquor store came first
And poured my money down the drain
It was all a game that led me down that road
The liquor store came first
Chorus:
I know where to find my booze when I need some
Down at the dark end of the street
(Verse 1)
(Chorus)
(Verse 1)
Hollies - Heading For A Fall
(Hicks / Clarke / Nash)
You say that you want me
I`ve no cause to doubt you
My friends tell me different that`s all
They say that I`m blind
but I know all about you
I know that I`m heading for a fall
I know that I`m heading for a fall
I seem to be hypnotized by all your beauty
a subject to your beck and call
Your arms magnetize me
when I`m here beside you
I know that I`m heading for a fall
I know that I`m heading for a fall
Or am I wasting my time
Or am I wasting my time
Or am I wasting my time
Or am I wasting my time
What is it about you that tempts me and taunts me
I can`t understand it all
If I try to leave you I know that you`ll haunt me
I know that I`m heading for a fall
I know that I`m heading for a fall

O.a.r. (of A Revolution) - Conquering Fools
set out on the voyage of the conquering fools
looking for the gold and the modern day jewels
it come to pass what was stuck in my head
if i didn't quit on looking then i'm probably dead
i hit the road and i rolled up north
looking for the origin, the place of my birth
i didn't notice when i ran a red sign
hoping that everything would really be fine
uh huh huh
people come and people go
but they never know what is going on
so they gotta try to be what they wanna be
what the hell is happening to me
i hit the road and i rolled up north
looking for the origin, the place of my birth
i didn't notice when i ran a red sign
hoping that everything would really be fine
i set out about an hour ago
looking for some gold, said hey oh
then i went down looking for the big
the big brass show
so i went and then he started to go
walking down the same old, same old road
thinking to myself, this is quite a struggle
what can i gotta do tomorrow

and conquer me some fools

hey we're conquering fools
Unseen - Punks Attack
they all claimed we'd go away
we grow in numbers everyday
rebellion can't be quelled for long
someday we'll come back twice as strong
while your pockets are getting thick
you're gonna get a brick
when it's time for you to die
i'll look you right in the eye
when the punks attack we'll have your back
20 years ago and we ain't done shit
when the punks attack you better watch your back
'cause there's a brick with your name on it
this isn't just an idle threat
i swear you ain't seen nothing yet
lets keep the feeling on the street
where it belongs, it's where we meet
the youth are selling drugs, commiting crime
but that will only get you time
direct your anger towards their hate
i'm pro-violent against the state
you're gonna get yours too
you'll get whats coming to y
Jennifer Love Hewitt - Me & Bobby Mcgee
Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waitin' for a train
And I was feelin' near as faded as my jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained
It rode us all the way into New Orleans
Now I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana
And I was playin' soft while Bobby sang the blues, yeah
Windshield wipers slappin' time, I was holdin' Bobby's hand in mine
We sang every song that driver knew, yeah
Freedom was just another word for nothin' left to lose
Nothin' and it's all there bubbling me
And feelin' good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues
Listen up, feelin' good was good enough for me
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee
From the Kentucky coal mine to the California sun
There Bobby shared the secrets of my soul
Through all kinds of weather, through everything we done
Now Bobby baby help me hold it over
One day up near Salinas, Lord, I let him slip away
He's lookin' for that home and I hope he finds it
Cause I'd trade all o' my tomorrows for one single yesterday
To be holdin' Bobby's body next to mine
Freedom was just another word for nothin' left to lose
Nothin', that's all that Bobby left me, yeah
But if feelin' good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues
You know, feelin' good was good enough for me, mm-hmm
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee
La-da-da La-da-da-da La-da-da da-da da-da
La-da-da da-la-da la-da, Bobby McGee, yeah
La-da-la-da-la-da La-da-la-da-da
La-da-la-da-la-la, Bobby McGee, yeah
La-da-da La-da-da La da-da La da-da
La-da-da La da-da La da-da
Bobby McGee, yeah
Lo-da-lo da-la-lo-da-la
Lo-da-la-lo da-la-lo la-la-lo la-la-lo la-la
Hey, my Bobby, Bobby Bobby McGee, yeah
Lord, I call you my lover, call you my man
I said I call you my lover, just the best I can, c'mon
Hey now Bobby now, hey now Bobby McGee, yeah
La-da la-da la-da la-da la-da la-da la-da la-la
Hey, hey, hey, Bobby McGee, yeah!
Zehn Meter Feldweg - Der Baum
Der Baum steht noch immer hier
seit nun mehr als zwanzig Jahren
Doch gestern hab ich ihn zum letzten mal gesehen
als ich dann den Weg nach Hause ging
Wo ich wirklich immer extrem langsam ging
Da war der Baum auf einmal weg
denn der Baum war abgechackt
von Zerstörern, wütig, illegal verbrannt
Da war der Baum auf einmal weg
denn der Baum war abgechackt
von Zerstörern, wütig, illegal verbrannt
Oho, die Baumterroristen nehmen Überhand
Oho, die Baumterroristen nehmen Überhand

Thunderhead - Ready To Roll
[Music & Lyrics: T. Pulit]
Hot lookin' lady
Dancin' out on the floor
Movin' to the left
To the right
I want some more
You're lookin' good
But you're to far away
So come a little bit
Closer my way
Hot love
Burnin' like a flame in the night
'Cause I'm ready
I'm ready to roll
I'm ready
I'm ready to roll
Sittin' in my hotel
Waitin' for you after the show
Ya said you'd take me
Out on the town
Show me what you know
We stayed out all night long
Ya know we
Made it feel like
There was no tomorrow
But now I'm back on the town
With the time I borrowed
We stayed out all night long
Ya know we
Made it feel like
There was no tomorrow
But now I'm back on the town
With the time I borrowed
Death Cab For Cutie - Tiny Vessels
This is the moment that you know
That you told her loved her but you don't.
You touch her skin and then you think
That she is beautiful but she don't mean a thing to me.
Yeah, she is beautiful but she don't mean a thing to me.
I spent two weeks in Silverlake
The California sun cascading down my face
There was a girl with light brown streaks,
And she was beautiful but she didn't mean a thing to me.
Yeah, she was beautiful but she didn't mean a thing to me.
I wanted to believe in all the words that I was speaking,
As we moved together in the dark
And all the friends that I was telling
All the playful misspellings
and every bite I gave you left a mark
Tiny vessels oozed into your neck
And formed the bruises
That you said you didn't want to fade
But they did, and so did I that day
All I see are dark grey clouds
In the distance moving closer with every hour
So when you ask "Is something wrong?"
I think "You're damn right there is but we can't talk about it now.
No, we can't talk about it now."
So one last touch and then you'll go
And we'll pretend that it meant something so much more
But it was vile, and it was cheap
and you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me
yeah you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me (x2)
Harry Belafonte - Softly
Softly she comes
Whispers the breeze with her passing
In secret love she is laughing
Softly she comes in the night
Softly she sighs
Sweetly she lies never sleeping
Her fragrance all in my keeping
Softly she comes in the night
Down the darkened hall
I hear her footsteps on my stair
And she is in my arms once more
Then softly she goes
Her shining lips in the shadows
Whisper goodbye at my window
Softly she goes in the dawn
Down the darkened hall
I hear her footsteps on my stair
And she is in my arms once more
Then softly she goes
Her shining lips in the shadows
Whisper goodbye at my window
Softly she goes in the dawn
Softly she goes in the dawn
