Pass the mic ~ The Beastie Boys
You've got a face not spoiled by beauty
I have some scars from where I've been
You've got eyes that can see right through me
You're not afraid of anything they've seen
I was told that I would feel
Nothing the first time
I don't know how these cuts heal
But in you I found a right
Song For Someone - U2
You can squeeze my lemon till
Juice run down my leg.
You can squeeze my lemon till
Juice run down my leg.
That's what I'm talking about!
But I'll be going back to Friar's Point, mama,
Rocking to my head.
Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
Sir Terry Pratchett
Ok I was stuck on this one so well done Sinnerman, yes I know it's obvious now I know the title!
Lemon Juice ~ Led Zepplin
Hey, Once I was a boogie singer playin' in a Rock and Roll Band
I never had no problems, yeah
Burnin' down one night stands
And everything around me, yeah
Got to stop to feelin' so low And I decided quickly (Yes I did)
To disco down and check out the show
Yeah, they was dancin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted
Play that funky music white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music white boy
Lay down the boogie and play that funky music till you die
Till you die
Oh ya, ya
Pass the Duchy ~ Musical youth
All you got is this moment
The twenty-first century's yesterday
You can care all you want
Everybody does yeah that's okay
So slide over here
And give me a moment
Your moves are so raw
I've got to let you know
I've got to let you know
You're one of my kind
Need You Tonight ~ INXS
You're so hot, teasin' me
So you're blue but I can't take a chance on a chick like you
It's something I couldn't do
There's that look in your eyes
I can read in your face that your feelings are driving you wild
Ah, but girl you're only a child
Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it's funny
Does your mother know that you're out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you're out?
Does Your Mother Know - Abba
Lost in the milky way
Smile at the empty sky and wait for
The moment a million chances may all collide
I'll be the guiding light
Swim to me through stars that shine down
And call to the sleeping world as they fall to earth
So, here's your life
We'll find our way
We're sailing blind
But it's certain, nothing's certain
I don't mind, I get the feeling
You'll be fine, I still believe that
In this world, we've got to find the time
Lightening seeds ~ The Lightening Seeds
Won't you come see about me?
I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby
Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving me everything inside and out and
Love's strange so real in the dark
Think of the tender things that we were working on
Slow change may pull us apart
When the light gets into your heart, baby
Don't You (Forget About Me) - Simple Minds
Drinking back, drinking for two
Drinking with you
When drinking was new
Sleeping in the back of my car
We never went far
Didn't need to go far
You made me feel like the one
Dakota ~ Stereophonics
Pressure pushing down on me
Pressing down on you, no man ask for
Under pressure that burns a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming, "Let me out!"
Tomorrow gets me higher
Pressure on people - people on streets
Into The Mystic - Van Morrison
Don't question why she needs to be so free
She'll tell you it's the only way to be
She just can't be chained
To a life where nothings gained
And nothings lost, at such a cost
Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
Sir Terry Pratchett
Ruby Tuesday - Rolling Stones
She came from Greece she had a thirst for knowledge
She studied sculpture at Saint Martin's College,
that's where I caught her eye.
She told me that her Dad was loaded
I said in that case I'll have a rum and coke-cola.
Common People - Pulp
Vows are spoken
To be broken
Feelings are intense
Words are trivial
Pleasures remain
So does the pain
Words are meaningless
And forgettable
One of my all time fave songs Depeche mode Enjoy the Silence
next set
I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete
Keanne - Somewhere only we know
Under a sky, no one sees,
Waiting, watching it happening.
Don't hurry give it time,
Things are the way they have to be.
Slow down, give it time,
The moment that you want is coming if you give it time
The Horrors ~ Still Life
A restless eye across a weary room
A glazed look and I was on the road to ruin
The music played and played as we whirled without end
No hint, no word her honour to defend
I will, I will she sighed to my request
And then she tossed her mane while my resolve was put to the test
Then drowned in desire, our souls on fire
I lead the way to the funeral pyre
And without a thought of the consequence
I gave in to my decadence
In A Gadda Da Vida - Iron Buttefly
You can sleep now, go to sleep,
The rain falls and the windows weep,
I'm standing by to sing a lullaby
Close your eyes my sister fair,
Though the snow is falling and the trees are bare.
And I will hold you by the hand,
Tonight there is nothing you need try to understand.
You can sleep now, go to sleep.
The daytime's dyin' and the nighttime's so deep.
I'm standing by to sing a lullaby
Another Lullaby - Art Garfunkel
Hide on the promenade
Etch a postcard :
"How I Dearly Wish I Was Not Here"
In the seaside town
That they forgot to bomb
Come, come, come - nuclear bomb
Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
Sir Terry Pratchett
ANOTHER LULLABY - Simon and Garfunkel (or maybe just Simon....or Garfunkel)
Got a letter from my baby she didn’t have much to say
I got a letter from my Mama she didn’t have much to say
She said son don’t let them bed bugs whittle my Daddy away
Well I’ll soon be leavin’ and I’ll be so glad to go
I’ll soon be leavin’ and I’ll be so glad to go
‘Cause these dog gone bed bugs done got me beat I know
Maybe have a quick check before you post Shannon?
Anyway...
Mean Old Bed Bug Blues - Ernest Tubb
Guilty free
I will degrade and tease
I'm your sparkle, make you smile and live
I'm your sunshine
I'm your beacon light
I am your salvation, a secure temptation
You pretend
You want to be my friend
All you try is to be by my side
All nights you are drawn to me like
a bug is pulled by light
Your darling cries and waits for you
Bestow misgiving on the ones
That never leave you alone
I am the innocence you wish
You could have kept, you had within
I am the evil that you hide
That lives inside you everyday
When you ask me the reason why
I screw with your mind, make you cry
You'll find the answer deep inside
Just close your eyes
Sanctify
Yourself when by my side
Bury deep all disregarded lies
Meagerly
You act the part you play
Enduring misery I will be your escape
You know you'll never touch me like
You dream of when you hide
Unreacheable, I'm the one
The peace you seek
You'll find it in my face
It brings you to disgrace
I am the innocence you wish
You could have kept, you had within
I am the evil that you hide
That lives inside you everyday
When you ask me the reason why
I screw with your mind, make you cry
You'll find the answer deep inside
Just close your eyes
You know what I am.........
Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
Sir Terry Pratchett
Every day is like Sunday - Morrissey
If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea
I'll sail the world to find you
If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can't see
I'll be the light to guide you
We find out what we're made of
When we are called to help our friends in need
Breathing ~ Kate Bush
Now stop biting my sticky buns, without permission! ;)
No life we're living when there's no time for giving
No sign of loving in this age of push and shoving.
Another boy with a broken heart
can't you see the pressure tearing me apart?
Oh
there's so much for me to overcome
should I stay and fight?
Well
where else is there I can run?
Antichrist Superstar - Marilyn Manson
So, just because I use salty phrases
And I go through stages
Where I neglect endeavour
Does this means that I'm not clever?
No, I don't think so
Just because my newspaper pages
Haven't been the Times in ages
Does that mean that
I don't know as much as you?
Jealousy will destroy us
Or so she used to say
You'd kill for half the things we do
Including yesterday
No you don't, no you didn't ~ Courteeners
Strain this chaos turn it into light
I've got to see you one last night
Before the lions take their share
Leave us in pieces, scattered everywhere
Just give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something to hold onto
