Best Pop Hits 100 - American Pie [compilation] (2007) by Various Artists (보컬) on maniadb.com

A long, long time ago
I can still remember how that music used to make me smile
And I knew if I had my chance that I could make those people dance
And maybe they'd be happy for a while

But February made me shiver
With every paper I'd deliver
Bad news on the doorstep
I couldn't take one more step

I can't remember if I cried
When I read about his widowed bride
But something touched me deep inside
The day the music died

So bye-bye, Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Singin' "This'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die"

Did you write the book of love, and do you have faith in God above
If the Bible tells you so?
Now do you believe in rock and roll, can music save your mortal soul
And can you teach me how to dance real slow?

Well, I know that you're in love with him
'Cause I saw you dancin' in the gym
You both kicked off your shoes
Man, I dig those rhythm and blues

I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck
With a pink carnation and a pickup truck
But I knew I was out of luck
The day the music died

I started singin' bye-bye, Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry
Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
And singin' "This'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die"

Now for ten years we've been on our own, and moss grows fat on a rollin' stone
But that's not how it used to be
When the jester sang for the king and queen in a coat he borrowed from James Dean
And a voice that came from you and me

Oh, and while the king was looking down
The jester stole his thorny crown
The courtroom was adjourned
No verdict was returned

And while Lenin read a book on Marx
A quartet practiced in the park
And we sang dirges in the dark
The day the music died

We were singin' bye-bye, Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry
Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Singin' "This'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die"

Helter skelter in a summer swelter, the birds flew off with a fallout shelter
Eight miles high and falling fast
It landed foul on the grass, the players tried for a forward pass
With the jester on the sidelines in a cast

Now the halftime air was sweet perfume
While the sergeants played a marching tune
We all got up to dance
Oh, but we never got the chance

'Cause the players tried to take the field
The marching band refused to yield
Do you recall what was revealed
The day the music died?

We started singin' bye-bye, Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry
Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
And singin' "This'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die"

Oh, and there we were all in one place, a generation lost in space
With no time left to start again
So come on, Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack Flash sat on a candlestick
'Cause fire is the devil's only friend

Oh, and as I watched him on the stage
My hands were clenched in fists of rage
No angel born in Hell
Could break that Satan's spell

And as the flames climbed high into the night
To light the sacrificial rite
I saw Satan laughing with delight
The day the music died

I started singin' it
singin' bye-bye, Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry
Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
And singin' "This'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die"

I met a girl who sang the blues, and I asked her for some happy news
But she just smiled and turned away
I went down to the sacred store where I'd heard the music years before
But the man there said the music wouldn't play

And in the streets, the children screamed
The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed
But not a word was spoken
The church bells all were broken

And the three men I admire most
The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost
They caught the last train for the coast
The day the music died

And they were singin' bye-bye, Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Singin' "This'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die"

They were singin' bye-bye, Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee, but the levee was dry
Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
And singin' "This'll be the day that I die"

Lovin' you it's easy coz' you're beautiful
Makin' love with you is all I want to do
Lovin' you is more than
just a dream come true
And everything that I do is not
out of loving you
La la la la la....
Do do do do do do....
No one else can make me feel
the colours that you bring
Stay with me while we grow old and
We will live each day in springtime
Coz' lovin' you has made
my life so beautiful
And everyday of my life is filled
with loving you
Loving you I see your soul
come shining through
And every time that we ooh
I'm more in love with you
La la la la la....
Do do do do do do....
No one else can make me feel
the colours that you bring
Stay with me while we grow old and
We will live each day in springtime
Coz' lovin' you has made
my life so beautiful
And everyday of my life is filled
with loving you
Loving you I see your soul
come shining through
And every time that we ooh
I'm more in love with you
La la la la la....
Do do do do do do....

The young ones
Darling we’re the young ones
And the young ones.
Shouldn’t be afraid to live and love
While the flame is strong.
Cause we may not be the young ones very long
Tomorrow why wait unitl tomorrow
Because tomorrow sometime never comes so love me
There’s song to be song and the best time is to sing
It while we’re young

Once in every life time
Comes a love like this
Oh I need you you need me
Oh my darling
Can’t you see
Young dreams should be dreamed together
And the young hearts
Shouldn’t be afraid
And someday
When the years have flown
Darlingthen we’ll teach the young ones of our own

I don't like to sleep alone

Stay with me, don't go

Talk with me for just a while

So much of you to get to know


Reaching out touching you

Leaving all the worried all behind

Loving you the way I do

My mouth on yours and yours on mine


Marry me, let me live with you

Nothing's wrong when love is right

Like a man say in his song

Help me make it through the night


Loneliness can get you down

When you get to thinking no one cares

Lean on me, and I"ll lean on you

Together we will see it through


Oh, I don't like to sleep alone

Sad to think some folks do

No, I don't like to sleep alone

No one does, do you


No, I don't like to sleep alone

No one does, do you

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true
Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?

Fly me to the moon
and let me play among the stars
let me see what spring is like
on Jupiter and Mars

in other words
hold my hand
in other words
darling, kiss me

Fill my heart with song
and let me sing forever more
you are all I long for
all I worship and adore

in other words
please be true
in other words
I love you

(musical interlude)

Fill my heart with song
and let me sing forever more
you are all I long for
all I worship and adore

in other words
please be true
in other words
I love you

The schoolgirl days of telling tales
And biting nails are gone
But in my mind I know they will still live on and on
But how do you thank someone
Who has taken you from crayons to perfume
It isn't easy but I'll try.

If you wanted the sky
I'd write across the sky in letters
That would soar a thousand feet high
To sir, with love

The time has come for closing books
And long last looks must end
And as I leave I know that I am leaving my best friend
A friend who taught me right from wrong
And weak from strong that's a lot to learn
What, what can I give you in return.

If you wanted the moon
I would try to make a star
But I would rather you let me give my heart
To Sir, With love

And when you climb
into your bed tonight
And when you lock
and bolt the door
Just think of those
out in the cold
And dark
cause there's
Not enough
love to go round
And sympathy
is what we need
My friend
and sympathy
Is what we need
and sympathy
Is what we need
my friend
Cause there's
not enough
Love to go round
no there's
Not enough
love to go round
Now half the world
hurts the other half
And half the world
has all the food
And half the world
lies down and
Quietly starves
cause there's
Not enough
love to go round
And sympathy
is what we need
My friend
and sympathy
Is what we need
and sympathy
Is what we need
my friend
Cause there's
not enough
Love to go round
no there's
Not enough
love to go round~

Le ciel bleu sur nous peut s'effrondrer
Et la terre peut bien s'ecrouler.
Peu m'importe si tu m'aimes.
Je me fous du monde entier.
Tant que l'amour inondera mes matins,
Tant que mon corps fremira sous tes mains,
Peu m'importent les grands problemes,
Mon amour, puisque tu m'aimesJ'irais jusqu'au bout du monde.
Je me ferais teindre en blonde
Si tu me le demandais
J'irais decrocher la lune.
J'irais voler la fortune
Si tu me le demandais
Je renierais ma patrie.
Je renierais mes amis
Si tu me le demandais
On peut bien rire de moi,
Je ferais n'importe quoi
Si tu me le demandaisSi un jour, la vie t'arrache a moi,
Si tu meurs, que tu sois loin de moi,
Peu m'importe, si tu m'aimes
Car moi, je mourrai aussi
Nous aurons pour nous l'eternite
Dans le bleu de toute l'immensite.
Dans le ciel, plus de problemes.
Mon amour, crois-tu qu'on s'aime?Dieu reunit ceux qui s'aiment !

I don't know how to love him
What to do, how to move him
I've been changed, yes really changed
In these past few days when I've seen myself
I seem like someone else

I don't know how to take this
I don't see why he moves me
He's a man, he's just a man
And I've had so many men before
In very many ways
He's just one more

Should I bring him down
Should I scream and shout
Should I speak of love
Let my feelings out
I never thought I'd come to this
What's it all about

Don't you think it's rather funny
I should be in this position
I'm the one who's always been
So calm, so cool, no lover's fool
Running every show
He scares me so

I never thought I'd come to this
What's it all about
What's it all about

If he said he loved me
I'd be lost, I'd be frightened
I couldn't cope, just couldn't cope
I'd turn my head, I'd back away
I wouldn't want to know
He scares me so
I love him so
I love him so

◈Soldier of Fortune - Deep Purple◈

I have often told you stories about the way
I lived the life of a drifter waiting for the day

하루를 기다리는 방랑자의 삶을 살았던
내 인생에 대해 당신께 자주 얘기했었죠

When I"d take your hand and sing you songs
Then maybe you would say "Come lay with me, love me"
And I would surely stay

내가 당신 손을 잡고 노래를 불러주면
당신은 이렇게 말할 지도 모르죠
"내 곁에 누워서 날 사랑해 주세요"
그럼 난 기꺼이 당신 곁에 머무르겠어요

But I feel I"m growing older And the songs that I have sung
echo in the distance like the sound of a windmill going round
I guess I"ll always be a soldier of fortune

하지만 이제 나도 나이가 들어가고 내가 즐겨 부르던 노래는
돌아가는 풍차 소리처럼 멀리서 메아리 치고 있어요
난 아무래도 군인일 수밖에 없나 봐요

Many times I"ve been a traveller I looked for something new
In days of old when nights were cold I wandered without you

난 여행을 많이 다니며 뭔가 새로운 것을 찾아 다녔어요
나이가 들어 추운 밤이 찾아오면 당신이 없는 난 방황했었죠

Those days I thought my eyes had seen you standing near
Though blindness is confusing It shows that you"re not here

그런 때에 난 당신이 바로 곁에
서있는 걸 내 눈으로 본 것 같았어요
눈이 먼 것처럼 혼란스러웠지만 당신은 여기에 없는걸요

Now I feel I"m growing older And the songs that I have sung
echo in the distance like the sound of a windmill going round
I guess I"ll always be a soldier of fortune

이제 난 나이가 든 것 같아요 내가 즐겨 부르던 노래는
풍차 돌아가는 소리처럼 멀리서 메아리 치고 있어요
난 아무래도 군인일 수밖에 없나봐요

I can hear the sound of a windmill going round
I guess I"ll always be a soldier of fortune

풍차 돌아가는 소리가 들려요
난 누가 뭐래도 항상 군인일 수밖에 없겠지요

There was a time when I was in a hurry as you are
I was like you
There was a day when I just had to tell my point of view
I was like you
No I don′t mean to make you frown,
no I just want you to slow down

Chorus:
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

Running around as you do, with your head up in the clouds
I was like you
Never had time to lay back, kick your shoes off, close your eyes
I was like you
Now you′re not hard to understand,
you need someone to take your hand

Hope is like a lighthouse keeper's beam
Hope the master cobbler of our dreams
For Hope believes in desert streams
The mightiest of stars
The microcosm in a jar
Vast or small they all revolve on Hope

Hope the guardian angel of the dove
Hope a gift of guidance from above
For Hope is the heart in mother's love
No plans could be conceived
No ships could fare the seas
For there would be no courage were it not for Hope

Now the path before us lies before our very eyes
Don't you see
And it leads up to the gateway
Lead me through
Don't you see

Then come and take my hand
Raise up your head
And dry your eyes
For up ahead I see
Woh woh yeah
A ray of peace
A shining on me

So let us feel Hope
And feel the sunrise in our minds
To give Hope is to enlighten all mankind
Ah but lose Hope and life seems black as blind
When faith gives way to fear
When motivation disappears
All is lost if one abandons Hope
All is lost
If one abandons Hope

The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
I'm not the kind of girl
Who gives up just like that
Oh, no

It's not the things you do
That tease and wound me bad
But it's the way you do
The things you do to me
I'm not the kind of girl
Who gives up just like that
Oh, no

The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
Number one, number one

Every girl wants you to be her man
But I'll wait my dear 'til it's my turn
I'm not the kind of girl
Who gives up just like that
Oh, no

The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
Number one, number one

Every girl wants you to be her man
But I'll wait my dear 'til it's my turn
I'm not the kind of girl
Who gives up just like that
Oh, no

The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one

Give me time
To realise my crime
Let me love and steal
I have danced inside your eyes
How can I be real

Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Precious kisses
Words that burn me
Lovers never ask you why
In my heart
The fires burning
Choose my colour
Find a star
Precious people always tell me
That's a step
A step too far

Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry

Words are few
I have spoken
I could waste a thousand years
Wrapped in sorrow
Words are token
Come inside/and catch my tears
You've been talking
But believe me

If it's true
You do not know
This boy loves without a reason
I'm prepared
To let you go

If it's love you want from me
Then take it away
Everything is not what you see
It's over again

Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry
Do you really want to hurt me
Do you really want to make me cry

Morning Train (Nine to Five)
by Sheena Easton


I wake up every mornin`, I stumble out of bed
Stretchin` and yawnin`, another day ahead
It seems to last forever, and time goes slowly by
Till babe and me`s together, then it starts to fly
`Cause the moment that he`s with me
time can take a flight
The moment that he`s with me, everything`s alright
Night time is the right time, we make love
Then it`s his and my time, we take off
My baby takes the morning train
he works from nine till five and then
He takes another home again
to find me waitin` for him
My baby takes the morning train
he works from nine till five and then
He takes another home again
to find me waitin` for him
He takes me to a movie, or to a restaurant, to go
Slow dancing, anything I want
Only when he`s with me, I catch light
Only when he gives me, makes me feel alright
My baby takes the morning train
he works from nine till five and then
He takes another home again
to find me waitin` for him
All day I think of him
dreamin` of him constantly
I`m crazy mad for him, and he`s crazy mad for me
When he steps off that train
I`m makin` a fool, a fight
Work all day to earn his pay
so we can play all night
My baby takes the morning train
he works from nine till five and then
He takes another home again
to find me waitin` for him
He`s always on that morning train
He works so hard
to find me waiting for him
ooh~~ waiting waiting~

Dark in the city, night is a wire
Steam in the subway, earth is a fire
(Do dododo dododo dododo dododo doo doo)
Woman, you want me, give me a sign
And catch my breathing even closer behind
(Do dododo dododo dododo dododo doo doo)

In touch with the ground
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
Smell like I sound, I'm lost in a crowd
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Straddle the line in discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
And I'm hungry like the wolf

Stalked in the forest, too close to hide
I'll be upon you by the moonlight side
(Do dododo dododo dododo dododo doo doo)
High blood drumming on your skin, it's so tight
You feel my heat, I'm just a moment behind
(Do dododo dododo dododo dododo doo doo)

In touch with the ground
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
Scent and a sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine, I'm after you
Mouth is alive, all running inside
And I'm hungry like the wolf

Hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf

Burning the ground, I break from the crowd
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
I smell like I sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
And I'm hungry like the wolf

Burning the ground, I break from the crowd
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
Scent and a sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine, I'm after you
Mouth is alive, all running inside
And I'm hungry like the wolf

Turn on the line, discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine, I'm after you
Mouth is alive...
And I'm...

Her hair is Harlowe gold,
Her lips sweet surprise
Her hands are never cold,
She's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll turn her music on you,
You won't have to think twice
She's pure as New York snow,
She got Bette Davis eyes

And she'll tease you,
She'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
She got Greta Garbo stand off sighs,
She's got Bette Davis eyes

She'll let you take her home,
It whets her appetite
She'll lay you on her throne,
She got Bette Davis eyes
She'll take a tumble on you,
Roll you like you were dice
Until you come out blue,
She's got Bette Davis eyes

She'll expose you, when she snows you
Off your feet with the crumbs she throws you
She's ferocious and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy,
She's got Bette Davis eyes

And she'll tease you,
She'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious, and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy,
She's got Bette Davis eyes...

The wands of smoke are rising
From the walls of the Bastille
And through the streets of Paris
Runs a sense of the unreal.

The Kings have all departed
There servants are nowhere
We burned out their mansions
In the name of Robespierre.

And still we wait to see the day begin
Our time is wasting in the wind
Wondering why, wondering why, it echoes
Through the lonely palace of Versailles.

Inside the midnight councils
The lamps are burning low
Oh you sit and talk all through the night
But there′s just no place to go.

And Bonaparte is coming
With his army from the south
Marat your days are numbered
And we live hand to mouth.

While we wait to see the day begin
Our time is wasting in the wind
Wondering why, wondering why, it echoes
Through the lonely palace of Versailles.

The ghost of revolution
Still prowls the Paris streets
Down all the restless centuries
It wonders incomplete.

It speaks inside the cheap red wine
Of cafe summer nights
Its red and amber voices
Call the cars at traffic lights.

Why do you wait to see the day begin
Your time is wasting in the wind
Wondering why, wondering why, it echoes
Through the lonely palace of Versailles.

Wondering why, it echoes
Through the lonely palace of Versailles.

Wonderful baby livin' on love the
sandman says maybe he'll take you above,
up where the girls fly on ribbons and bows, where babies float by, just
counting their toes.

Wonderful baby nothin' but new, the
world has gone crazy, I'm glad I'm not you.
At the beginning or is it the end? It goes
in and comes out and starts over again.

Wonderful baby livin' on love the
sandman says maybe he'll take you above,
up where the girls fly on ribbons and bows, where babies float by, just
counting their toes.

Wonderful baby I'll watch while you grow. If
I knew the future you'd be first to know. But I don't know nothin' of what
life's about, Just as long as you live, you'll never find out.

Wonderful baby, nothin' to fear.
Love whom you will, but doubt what you hear.
They'll whisper sweet things to make untrue. So be good to yourself, that's all
you can do. You're a wonderful baby livin' on love the sandman says maybe he'll
take you above, up where the girls fly on ribbons and bows, where babies float
by, just counting their toes, where
babies float by, just counting their toes...

So true, funny how it seems
Always in time, but never in line for dreams
Head over heels when toe to toe
This is the sound of my soul
This is the sound
I bought a ticket to the world
But now I've come back again
Why do I find it hard to write the next line
Oh I want the truth to be said

Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true
Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true

With a thrill in my head and a pill on my tongue
Dissolve the nerves that have just begun
Listening to Marvin (all night long)
This is the sound of my soul
This is the sound
Always slipping from my hands
Sand's a time of its own
Take your seaside arms and write the next line
Oh I want the truth to be known

Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true
Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true

I bought a ticket to the world
But now I've come back again
Why do I find it hard to write the next line
Oh I want the truth to be said

Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true
Huh huh huh hu-uh huh
I know this much is true

This much is true

(This much is true)
(This much is true)
I know, I know, I know this much is true
(This much is true)
(This much is true)

(This much is true)
(This much is true)
I know this much is true
(This much is true)
(This much is true)

(This much is true)
(This much is true)
I know, I know, I know this much is true

I left my heart in San Francisco, high on a hill
It calls to me to be where little cable cars
Climb halfway to the stars
The morning fog may fill the air

Oh, I don't care, my love waits there in San Francisco
Above the blue and windy sea and windy sea
When I come home to you, San Francisco
Your golden sun will shine for me

When I come home to you, San Francisco, yeah
Your golden sun can only shine upon me, oh, oh, yeah

I said when I come home well, well, to you
Oh, I'm coming home San Francisco, yeah
Your golden sun please, let it shine upon me

Tell me why we're never more than strangers
Tell me why you never let it show

* But when you're close to me
And whisper, I need you
In the cold mornin' light

**Try me, oh take me for a little while
Before it's over and you leave me with just a smile
Try me, oh let me be the one
You say it's over
But for me it had just begun

Tell me why we seem no more than strangers
Tell me why the feelin' never goes

* Repeat
** Repeat

[INSTRUMENTAL]

I was sitting all alone
Watching people get it on
With each other
They were dancin cross the floor
Turning, moving back and forth
They were lovers
One more lonely night for me
I looked up, what did I see?
Sexy eyes, movin cross the floor
Got me wantin more, sexy eyes (sexy)
Sexy eyes, gettin down with you
I want to move with you, sexy eyes
I got up and took your hand
And we both began to dance to the music
Ooh, your magic cast a spell
It didn't take long till we fell
And we knew it
No more lonely nights for me
This is how it's gonna be
Sexy eyes, move across the floor
Got me wantin more, sexy eyes (sexy)
Sexy eyes, gettin down with you
I wanna move with you, sexy eyes
No more lonely nights for me
This is how it's gonna be
Sexy eyes, movin cross the floor
Got me wantin more, sexy eyes (sexy)
Sexy eyes, gettin down with you
I wanna move with you, sexy eyes
Sexy eyes, gettin down with you
I wanna move with you, sexy eyes
Sexy eyes, gettin down with you
I wanna move with you, sexy eyes

Lady...
I'm your knight in shining armor and I love you.
You have made me what I am and I am yours.
My love...
There's so many ways I want to say, "I love you."
Let me hold you in my arms forever more.

You have gone and made me such a fool.
I'm so lost in your love.
And oh, we belong together.
Won't you believe in my song?
Lady...
For so many years, I thought I'd never find you.
You have come into my life and made me whole.
Forever, let me wake to see you each and every morning.
Let me hear you whisper softly in my ear.
In my eyes, I see no one else but you.
There's no other love like our love
And yes, oh yes I'll always want you near me.
I've waited for you for so long.
Lady...
Your love's the only love I need.
and Beside me is where I want you to be.
Cause my love there's something I want you to know.
You're the love of my life. You're my lady...

Everybody Wants You


You see 'em comin' at you every night
Strung on pretension they fall for you at first sight
You know their business--you think it's a bore
They make you restless--it's nothin' you ain't seen before
Get around town, spend your time on the run
You never let down...say you do it for fun
Never miss a play, though you make quite a few
You give it all away when everybody wants you

You crave attention--you can never say "no"
Throw your affections anyway the wind blows
You always make it--you're on top of the scene
You sell the copy like the cover of a magazine
Puttin' on the eyes 'til there's nobody else

You never realize what you do to yourself
The things that they see make the daily reviews
You never get free when everybody wants you

Everybody knows you
Everybody snows you
Everybody needs you...leads you...bleeds you


Nights of confusion and impossible dreams
Days at the mirror, patchin' up around the seams
You got your glory--you paid for it all
You take your pension in loneliness and alcohol
Say goodbye to conventional ways
You can't escape the hours--you lose track of the days
The more you understand, seems the more like you do
You never get away...everybody wants you

Sometimes I feel like I'm the loneliest of
all creatures in the universe
Oh no! Oh no! Oh no! Oh no!
Oh no you're not the loneliest of
all creatures in the universe
Oh no! Oh no!

If I am not the loneliest of creatures
There must be someone lonelier than me
But I can't believe despair could be much
deeper
When I'm as lonely as a man can be

Oh no! Oh no! Oh no! Oh no!
Oh no you're not the loneliest of
all creatures in the universe!
Oh no! Oh no!

Suppose I'm not the loneliest of creatures
Then tell me who this wretched soul might be
In the dark of night there lives a lighthouse keeper
And the lone survivor of his world is he
The lone survivor of his world Is he

But I feel like I'm the loneliest of
all creatures in the universe
Yet I know I'm not the loneliest of
all creatures in the universe

Tell her I'll be waiting
In the usual place
With the tired and weary
And there's no escape

To need a woman
You've got to know
How the strong get weak
And the rich get poor

You're running with me
Don't touch the ground
We're restless hearted
Not the chained and bound

The sky is burning
A sea of flame
Though your world is changing
I will be the same

The storm is breaking
Or so it seems
We're too young to reason
Too grown up to dream

Now spring is turning
Your face to mine
I can hear your laughter
I can see your smile
No-I can't escape
I'm a slave to love

Lost in a dream
Don't know which way to go
If you are all that you seem
And baby I'm movin' way too slow

I've been a fool before
Wouldn't like to get my love caught
In the slammin' door
How about some information please

Straight up now tell me
Do you really want to love me forever oh oh oh
Or am I caught in a hit and run
Straight up now tell me
Is it gonna be you and me together oh oh oh
Or are you just having fun?

Time's standin' still
Waiting for some small clue
(Let me tell you that)
I keep getting chills
When I think your love is true

I've been a fool before
Wouldn't like to get my love caught
In the slammin' door
How about some information please

Straight up now tell me
Do you really want to love me forever oh oh oh
Or am I caught in a hit and run
Straight up now tell me
Is it gonna be you and me together oh oh oh
Or are you just having fun?

You are so hard to read
You play hide and seek
With your true intentions
If you're only playing games
I'll just have to say: buh buh buh buh buh buh bye

Do do you love me
Do do you love me
(Hey baby)
Do do you love me
Do do you love me
(Hey baby)
Do do you love me
Do do you love me
(Hey baby)
Do do you love me
Do do you love me
(Tell me baby)

I've been a fool before
Wouldn't like to get my love caught
In the slammin' door
Are you more than hot for me
Or am I a page in your history book
I don't mean to make demands
But the word and the deed go hand in hand
How about some information please (please please please)

Straight up now tell me x3
Tell me
Straight up now tell me
Tell me
Straight up now tell me x2

Straight up now tell me
Do you really want to love me forever oh oh oh
Or am I caught in a hit and run
Straight up now tell me
Is it gonna be you and me together oh oh oh
Or are you just having fun?

Straight up now tell me
Do you really want to love me forever oh oh oh
Or am I caught in a hit and run
Straight up now tell me
Is it gonna be you and me together oh oh oh
Or are you just having fun?

I'm all out of hope
One more bad dream could bring a fall
When I'm far from home
Don't call me on the phone
To tell me you're alone
It's easy to deceive
It's easy to tease
But hard to get release

Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Got no human grace your eyes without a face.

I spend so much time
Believing all the lies
To keep the dream alive
Now it makes me sad
It makes me mad at truth
For loving what was you

Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Got no human grace your eyes without a face.

When you hear the music you make a dip
Into someone else's pocket then make a slip.
Steal a car and go to Las Vegas oh, the gigolo pool.
I'm on a bus on a psychedelic trip
Reading murder books tryin' to stay hip.
I'm thinkin' of you you're out there so
Say your prayers.
Say your prayers.
Say your prayers.

Now I close my eyes
And I wonder why
I don't despise
Now all I can do
Is love what was once
So alive and new
But it's gone from your eyes
I'd better realise

Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Les yeux sans visage eyes without a face
Got no human grace your eyes without a face.
Such a human waste your eyes without a face
And now it's getting worse

I wanna call the stars
Down from the sky
I wanna live a day
That never dies
I wanna change the world
Only for you
All the impossible
I wanna do

I wanna hold you close
Under the rain
I wanna kiss your smile
And feel the pain
I know what′s beautiful
Looking at you
In a world of lies
You are the truth

And baby
Everytime you touch me
I become a hero
I′ll make you safe
No matter where you are
And bring you
Everything you ask for
Nothing is above me
I′m shining like a candle in the dark
When you tell me that you love me

I wanna make you see
Just what I was
Show you the loneliness
And what it does
You walked into my life
To stop my tears
Everything′s easy now
I have you here

And baby
Everytime you touch me
I become a hero
I′ll make you safe
No matter where you are
And bring you
Everything you ask for
Nothing is above me
I′m shining like a candle in the dark
When you tell me that you love me

In a world without you
I would always hunger
All I need is your love to make me stronger

And baby
Everytime you touch me
I become a hero
I′ll make you safe
No matter where you are
And bring you
Everything you ask for
Nothing is above me
I′m shining like a candle in the dark
When you tell me that you love me

You love me
When you tell me that you love me

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight

I keep looking for something I can′t get
Broken hearts lie all around me
And I don′t see an easy way to get out of this
Her diary it sits on the bedside table
The curtains are closed, the cats in the cradle
Who would′ve thought that a boy like me could come to this

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must′ve been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must′ve been some kind of kiss
I should′ve walked away

Is there any just cause for feeling like this?
On the surface I′m a name on a list
I try to be discreet, but then blow it again
I′ve lost and found, it′s my final mistake
She′s loving by proxy, no give and all take
′cos I′ve been thrilled to fantasy one too many times

Oh I, I just died in your arms...

It was a long hot night
She made it easy, she made it feel right
But now it′s over the moment has gone
I followed my hands not my head, I know I was wrong

Oh I, I just died in your arms...

Desert loving in your eyes all the way.
If I listen to your lies would you say
I′m a man without conviction,
I′m a man who doesn′t know
how to sell a contradiction.
You come and go, you come and go.


Karma karma karma karma karma chameleon,
you come and go, you come and go.
Loving would be easy if your colours were like my dream,
red gold and green, red gold and green.


Don′t hear your wicked words every day
and you used to be so sweet, I heard you say
that my love was an addiction.
When we cling our love is strong.
When you go you′re gone forever.
You string along, you string along.


Karma karma karma karma karma chameleon,
you come and go, you come and go.
Loving would be easy if your colours were like my dream,
red gold and green, red gold and green.


Every day is like survival,
you′re my lover, not my rival.
Every day is like survival,
you′re my lover, not my rival.


I′m a man without conviction,
I′m a man who doesn′t know
how to sell a contradiction.
You come and go, you come and go.


Karma karma karma karma karma chameleon,
you come and go, you come and go.
Loving would be easy if your colours were like my dream,
red gold and green, red gold and green.


Karma karma karma karma karma chameleon,
you come and go, you come and go.
Loving would be easy if your colours were like my dream,
red gold and green, red gold and green.


Karma karma karma karma karma chameleon,
you come and go, you come and go.
Loving would be easy if your colours were like my dream,
red gold and green, red gold and green. (fade)

The last that ever she saw him
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
He passed on worried and warning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
Lost in a river last saturday night
Far away on the other side.
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
And she couldn't find how to push through

The trees that whisper in the evening
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Sing a song of sorrow and grieving
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
All she saw was a silhouette of a gun
Far away on the other side.
He was shot six times by a man on the run
And she couldn't find how to push through

I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away

I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away

Four AM in the morning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
I watched your vision forming
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Star was light in a silvery night
Far away on the other side
Will you come to talk to me this night
But she couldn't find how to push through

I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away

I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away

Far away on the other side.

Caught in the middle of a hundred and five
The night was heavy but the air was alive
She couldn't find how to push through

Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Far away on the other side.

All the men come in these places
And the men are all the same
You don't look at their faces
And you don't ask their names
You don't think of them as human
You don't think of them at all
You keep your mind on the money
Keeping your eyes on the wall

I'm your private dancer, a dancer for money
I'll do what you want me to do
I'm your private dancer, a dancer for money
And any old music will do

I want to make a million dollars
I wanna live out by the sea
Have a husband and some children
Yeah, I guess I want a family
All the men come in these places
And the men are all the same
You don't look at their faces
And you don't ask their names

I'm your private dancer, a dancer for money
I'll do what you want me to do
I'm your private dancer, a dancer for money
And any old music will do

Deutch marks or dollars
American Express will do nicely, thank you
Let me loosen up your collar
Tell me, do you wanna see me do the shimmy again?

Just a little more time is all we're asking for
Cause just a little more time could open closing doors
Just a little uncertainty can bring you down
And nobody wants to know you now
And nobody wants to show you how
So if you're lost and on your own
You can never surrender
And if your path won't lead you home
You can never surrender
And when the night is cold and dark
You can see, you can see light
Cause no-one can take away your right
To fight and never surrender

With a little perseverance you can get things down
Without the blind adherence that has conquered some
And nobody wants to know you now
And nobody wants to show you how
So if you're lost and on your own
You can never surrender
And if your path won't lead you home
You can never surrender
And when the night is cold and dark
You can see, you can see light
Cause no-one can take away your right
To fight and never surrender, to never surrender

Choice...
You know I'm saying...
Can this last with two beautiful women...
but at the same time, you know,
every man has this ideal image
of loving just one

I'm checking you out, you're all alone
No one is clocking you, but I'm scoping you
Staring right thru you, staring into you
Your beauty is endless and I'm hoping to explore

Brothers may say you're ugly but I disagree
But in a way that's fine with me
'Cause I want to travel with you
Travel in your mind 'cause you seem like a virgin

Free as the wind blows, tall as a tree grows
Wild like nature, yet calm as a field
Hair is natural, lips are natural
Face wins first place, you appeal to me, girl

Let me ask you for some time
For us to unwind together et cetera
I have nothing but pure intentions
Everything we'll be will be natural

Natural
Natural

I'd like to hold your waist as we chase
The wind down the shores of a southern ocean
Rub my fingers through your hair
Slowly rub and caress your forehead and bare

our problems, as we lay on the bed called Earth
Holding hands 'till we touch each and every finger
As the ocean water wets us both
In the center of the crossroads

Spiritual bonds are connected...what...an erection
Well...Let's drive to the city
And walk among the lights of the city streets
You're making me weak and it's scary

'Cause you've played no games
All you've been is very natural
That's why I'm scared to fall in love with you
'Cause girl you so natural

Natural
Natural
Oh yeah

I wanna be natural
I wanna be natural
I wanna be sleeping in you
I wanna be inside you

I wanna be sleeping deep in you
I wanna be sleeping deep in you
I wanna be in you
I wanna be in you

Natural
Natural

Love your lips
Love the way you do the things you do
Natural
Your lips

Now Listen
Not a dime, I can't pay my rent
I can barely make it through the week
Saturday night I'd like to make my girl
But right now I can't make ends meet

I'm always workin' slavin' every day
Gotta get away from that same old same old
I need a chance just to get away
If you could hear me think this is what I'd say

Don't need nothin' but a good time
How can I resist
Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time
And it don't get better than this

They say I spend my money on women and wine
But I couldn't tell you where I spent last night
I'm really sorry about the shape I'm in
I just like my fun every now and then

I'm always workin' slavin' every day
Gotta get away from that same old same old
I need a chance just to get away
If you could hear me think this is what I'd say

Don't need nothin' but a good time
How can I resist
Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time
And it don't get better than this

You see I raise a toast to all of us
Who are breakin' our backs every day
If wantin' the good life is such a crime
Lord, then put me away
Here's to ya

Don't need nothin' but a good time
How can I resist
Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time
And it don't get better than this

Don't need nothin' but a good time
How can I resist
Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time
And it don't get better than this

Don't need nothin' but a good time
How can I resist
Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time
And it don't get better than this

Whenever I'm weary

from the battles that rage in my head

You make sense of madness

when my sanity

hangs by a thread

I lose my way but

still you seem to understand

Now and forever

I will be your man



Sometimes I just hold you

too caught up in me to see

I'm holding a fortune

that heaven has given to me

I'll try to show you

each and every way I can

Now and forever

I will be your man



Now I can rest my worries

and always be sure

That I won't be alone anymore

If I'd only known you were there

all the time, all this time



Until the day the ocean

doesn't touch the sand

Now and forever

I will be your man

Used to be so easy
To give my heart away
But I found out the hard way
There's a price you have to pay
I found out that love
Was no friend of mine
I should have known
Time after time
So long, it was so long ago
But I've still got the blues for you
Used to be so easy
To fall in love again
But I found out the hard way
It's a road that leads to pain
I found that love
Was more than just a game
You're playin' to win
But you lose just the same
So long, it was so long ago
But I've still got the blues for you
So many years
Since I've seen your face
Here in my heart
There's an empty space
Where you used to be
So long, it was so long ago
But I've still got the blues for you
Though the days come and go
There is one thing I know
I've still got the blues for you

Baby want you tell me why
there is sadness
in your eyes
I don't wanna say goodbye
to you
Love is one big illusion
I should try to forget
But there is something
left in my head
You're the one who set it up
Now you're the one
to make it stop
I'm the one who's feeling lost
right now
Now you want me to forget
every little thing you said
But there is something
left in my head
I won't forget the way
you're kissing
The feelings so strong
were lasting for so long
But I'm not the man
your heart is missing
That's why you go away I know
You were never satisfied
no matter how I tried
Now you wanna
say goodbye to me
Love is one big illusion
I should try to forget
But there is something
left in my head
I won't forget the way
you're kissing
The feelings so strong
were lasting for so long
But I'm not the man
your heart is missing
That's why you go away I know
Sitting here all alone
in the middle of nowhere
Don't know which way to go
There is so much to say
now between us
There ain't so much for you
There ain't so much
for me anymore

I won't forget the way
you're kissing
The feelings so strong
were lasting for so long
But I'm not the man
your heart is missing
That's why you go away I know
That's why you go away I know

Stay (x4)

Stay baby
Stay, come on darling now
Stay, you know I want you back
Stay with me tonight
Come on won't you stay
Stay, oh
Stay
Stay with me

It seems I have the strangest dream
I'm dreaming that you are gonna leave me
I wake up and I find it's true
What will I do without you?
I don't know, I don't know
Just what it takes to get to you
I don't know, I don't know
Baby I'll be true if only you

Stay
Baby though I made you cry
Stay
Baby don't you say goodbye
Stay
Baby look me in my eye
Stay with me tonight

Come on baby

Baby though I made you cry
Stay
Baby don't you say goodbye
Stay
Won't you stay

They say that love will come and go
But your love's indispensible to me
I really wanna be with you
What are we gonna do boy
I don't know, I don't know
Just what it takes to get to you
I don't know, I don't know
Baby I'll be true if only you

Stay
Baby though I make you cry
Stay
Baby don't you say goodbye
Stay
Baby look me in my eye
Stay with me tonight

Even though I told you lies
Stay
Baby give me one more try
Stay
Stay with me

Come on baby
Won't you, won't you
Why don't you stay
Why don't you stay

Come on, come on, come on and stay
Come on, come on, come on and stay
Stay with me tonight

Oh, oh, oh
I want you to stay
Stay
Baby though I made you cry
Stay
Baby don't you say goodbye
Stay with me tonight
Come on baby
Make you cry
You don't have to say goodbye
Stay

Love Devotion Feeling Emotion
Don't be afraid to be weak
Don't be too proud to be strong
Just look into your heart my friend
That will be the return to yourself
The return to innocence.

If you want, then start to laugh
If you must, then start to cry
Be yourself don't hide
Just believe in destiny.
Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence.

That's not the beginning of the end
That's the return to yourself
The return to innocence.

The return to innocence.

Spaceman I always wanted you to go
Into space man (intergalactic Christ)
Spaceman I always wanted you to go
Into space man (intergalactic Christ)

Pungent smells they consummate my home
Beyond the black horizon
Trying to take control
See my girl she shivers in her bones
The sun and zenith rising
Trying to take us all

There's a fire between us
So where is your God
There's a fire between us
I can't get off the carousel
I can't get off the carousel
I can't get off the carousel
I can't get off this world

The sickening taste
Homophobic jokes
Images of fascist folks
Beam me up 'cause I can't breathe

Spaceman I always wanted you to go
Into space man

It's time to terminate the great white world
Morbid fascinations television takes control
Decimation different races fall
Electronic information tampers with your soul

There's a fire between us
So where is your God
There's a fire between us
I can't get off the carousel
I can't fall off this world

The sickening taste
Homophobic jokes
Images of fascist folks
Beam me up 'cause I can't breathe

Spaceman I always wanted you to go
Into space man

Spaceman I always wanted you to go
Into space man (intergalactic Christ)
Spaceman I always wanted you to go
Into space man (intergalactic Christ)

Spaceman, Spaceman, Spaceman, Spaceman

In Too Deep
I was high and dry
Don't ask me why
We took the wrong turn that day
Out on that long lonely highway.
The river was pounding below
And how we crashed, I'll never know
But suddenly I can't swim
So this is drowning...

Suddenly I'm in too deep
to ever get out
I gave you my heart and my soul to keep
Don't give me your doubts
I'm over my head
and it's scaring me so...

I'm in too deep
I'm in too deep

Thanks for the crash course
That ride upon your noble horse
Well we jumped the fence that day
and rode so far away...
Will I forever roam?
I only want to come home
So won't you throw me a line?
I think it's really time...

Suddenly I'm in too deep
to ever get out
I gave you my heart and soul to keep
Don't give me your doubts
I'm over my head
and it's scaring me so...

So have a little faith baby in where we're going to
Don't ask me where
You know I just can't tell you
All I know is I'm swept away
taken by this undertow
Ooh, waves are crashing in
Baby, baby don't let me go, 'cos...

I'm in too deep
I'm in too deep
I'm in too deep
I'm in too deep

I hate the world today
You are so good to me I know
but I can't change
Tried to tell you but you
look at me like maybe
I'm an angel underneath
innocent and sweet
Yesterday i cried
You must have been relieved
to see the softer side
I can understand how
you'd be so confused
I don't envy you
i'm a little bit of everything
all rolled into one
I'm a bitch I'm a lover
I'm a chile I'm a mother
I'm a sinner I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
Yoy know you would't
want it any other way
So take me as i am
This may mean you'll have
to be a stronger man
Rest assuredthat when i start
to make you nervous
and i'm going to extremes
tomorrow i will change
and today won't mean a thing
I'm a bitch I'm a lover
I'm a chile I'm a mother
I'm a sinner I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
Yoy know you would't
want it any other way

Just when you think
you got me
figured out the season's
already changing
I think it's cool you do
what you do
and don't try to save me
I'm a bitch I'm a lover
I'm a chile I'm a mother
I'm a sinner I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed
I'm your hell I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
Yoy know you would't
want it any other way
I'm a bitch I'm a tease
I'm a goddess on my knees
When you hurt when you suffer
I'm your angel undercover
I've been numb I'm revived
can say i'm not alive
You know you would't
want it any other way

We′ll be singing
When we′re winning
We′ll be singing

Isn't the first time, won't be the last time

Don't you worry, I don't mean to make you sad
My tears will soon be over
With your conscience clear for a new life ahead
Don't be sorry, I really need to hear the truth
The only thing I'm asking, 'cause I need you to
Remember me as the only one who sets you free
Maybe time alone will make you see
How deep our love could be
No, it's never too late

Cause I know this isn't the first time
Won't be the last time
I surrender my soul 'cause you're always
Keeping me waiting,
Anticipating the day we find love once again

I won't give up while there's a glimmer of a chance
A dream that's never ending
Inviting love and a perfect romance
A burning passion, oh, baby, you're my destiny
But the message I'm receiving is you're through with me
But I'll be there even though you tell me you don't care, no, no
How could you forget the times we shared?
Don't throw our love away
You know it's never too late

Cause I know this isn't the first time
Won't be the last time
I surrender my soul 'cause you're always
Keeping me waiting,
Anticipating the day we find love once again

Ooh, remember me as the only one who sets you free
Maybe time alone will make you see how deep our love could be
No, it's never too late, no, no, no, no

(to fade)
Isn't the first time
Won't be the last time
I surrender my soul 'cause you're always
Keeping me waiting,
Anticipating the day we find love once again

You are so beautiful to me
You are so beautiful to me
Can't you see
Your everything I hoped for
Your everything I need
You are so beautiful to me

Such joy and happiness you bring
Such joy and happiness you bring
Like a dream
A guiding light that shines in the night
Heavens gift to me
You are so beautiful to me

She makes me bleed, oh yeah, she makes me cry
She makes me sneeze, oh yeah, she makes me sigh
So bring her on down, bring her on down from heaven
So bring her on down, bring her on down from heaven, oh yeah
My only number must be, must be

Bring her on down by the soles of her feet
Slapping her 'round and making her bleed
I vowed to my god I'd give it all up
If he would bring her on down from heaven

She makes me bleed, oh yeah, don't know her name
She makes me freeze, oh yeah, she's in my face
So bring her on down, bring her on down from heaven, oh yeah
Bring her on down, bring her on down from heaven
My only number must be, must be

So bring her on down, bring her on down from heaven
So bring her on down, bring her on down from heaven
My only number must be, must be

Bring her on down by the soles of her feet
Slapping her 'round and making her bleed
I vowed to my god I'd give it all up
Don't know her name, don't know what she's done

Yo I'm tired of chumps tryin to waste my time
I ain't got no time to play
Gotta make moves

[Chorus: DC Lee]

Never no time to play
Gotta keep workin every day
Never no time to play
Gotta make moves with no delay (I gotta make moves)
Never no time to play (No time to play)

[Guru]
Nope, I can't stop, nope, I can't stop to talk
I gotta go I gotta go yo
Basically I'm a brother they depend on, lean on
So now I gotta be gone, I gotta keep strong
Always stayin busy kid, cause I can never fall off
Laziness ain't gettin to me
There's too much opportunity
And I'm not waitin for no one
Cause slow ones, they don't get nuttin done son

[Guru]
Your time is runnin short sport
Make a move or get caught
Nothing lasts forever, nothing lasts forever baby
Maybe, you shouldn't act so crazy
Instead of tryin to be the man
You could REALLY be the man, if you had a plan, understand?
But I'm not the one to be waitin for ya
Back in the day, I used to do stuff for ya
Now I'm warnin ya
That you really ain't no pimp you wimp

[Chorus: DC Lee]

Never no time to play
Gotta keep workin every day (No time to play)
Never no time to play
Gotta make moves with no delay (I gotta make moves)
Never no time to play
Gotta keep workin every day
Never no time to play
(I gotta make moves) Gotta make moves

[Guru]
I gotta make moves, each and every day
I need the cash, I need the cash mo-ney
With my rhyme display, I may take all the paper
Wild, I guess I have the know-how
When you see me in the house you better go, "What's up G?
What's up Gang?" Then give me a pound
Because I've been down, dedicated and I've waited
For my turn, cause respect is somethin you earn

[Chorus: DC Lee]

Never no time to play
Gotta keep workin every day
Never no time to play (uhh, I gotta make moves)
Gotta make moves with no delay
Never no time to play (No time to play)

[Guru]
No time to play
My man Ronny Jordan gets busy on guitar
DC Lee and Big Shug in the house
Big shouts to the crew
Whassup to the Cutthroats, slicker than most
I ain't got no time yo so I'm gone, I'm gone

After some time
I've finally made up my mind
She is the girl
And I really want to
make her mine
I'm searching everywhere
to find her again
To tell her I love her
And I'm sorry about the
things I've done
I find her standing
in front of the church
The only place in town
where I didn't search
She looks so happy
in her weddingdress
But she's crying
while she's saying this
Boy I've missed your kisses
all the time But this is
twentyfive minutes too late
Though you travelled so far
Boy I'm sorry you are
twentyfive minutes too late
Against the wind
I'm going home again
Wishing me back
To the time when we were
more than friends
But still I see her
in front of the church
The only place in town
where I didn't search
She looked so happy
in her weddingdress
But she cried
while she was saying this
Boy I've missed your kisses
all the time But this is
twentyfive minutes too late
Though you travelled so far
Boy I'm sorry you are
twentyfive minutes too late
Out in the streets
Places where
hungry hearts have
nothing to eat
Inside my head
still I can
hear the word she said
Boy I've missed your kisses
all the time But this is
twentyfive minutes too late
Though you travelled so far
Boy I'm sorry you are
twentyfive minutes too late
Boy I've missed your kisses
all the time But this is
twentyfive minutes too late
It's too late
Though you travelled so far
Boy I'm sorry you are
twentyfive minutes too late
I can still hear her say

Humidity's rising
Barometer's getting low
According to all sources
The street's the place to go
Cause tonight for the first time
Just about half-past ten
For the first time in history
It's gonna start raining men.

It's raining men! Hallelujah!
It's raining men! Amen!
It's raining men! Hallelujah!
It's raining men! Amen! OW!

Humidity's rising
Barometer's getting low
According to all sources
The street's the place to go
Cause tonight for the first time
Just about half-past ten
For the first time in history
It's gonna start raining men.

It's raining men! Hallelujah!
It's raining men! Amen
I'm gonna go out, I'm gonna let myself get,
Absolutely soaking wet!
It's raining men! Hallelujah!
It's raining men! Every specimen!
Tall, blonde, dark and lean
Rough and tough and strong and mean

God bless Mother Nature, she's a single woman too
She took on a heaven and she did what she had to do
She taught every angel to rearrange the sky
So that each and every woman could find her perfect guy

It's raining men!
Spoken: Go get yourself wet girl, I know you want to.

I feel stormy weather moving in
About to begin
Hear the thunder don't you loose your head.
Rip off the roof and stay in bed!

It's raining men! Hallelujah!
It's raining men! Amen!
It's raining men! Hallelujah!
It's raining men! Amen!

It's raining men! Hallelujah!
It's raining men! Amen!

It's raining men, it's raining men,
It's raining men, it's raining men,
It's raining men, it's raining men,
It's raining men, it's raining men

I've got it all, but I feel so deprived
I go up, I come down and I'm emptier inside
Tell me what is this thing that I feel like I'm missing
And why can't I let it go

There's gotta be more to life
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me
Cause the more that I'm
Trippin' out thinkin' there must be more to life
Well it's life, but I'm sure
There's gotta be more

(Than wanting more)

I've got the time and I'm wasting it slowly
Here in this moment I'm half-way out the door
Onto the next thing,
I'm searching for something that's missing

There's gotta be more to life
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me
Cause the more that I'm
Trippin' out thinkin' there must be more to life
Well it's life, but I'm sure There's gotta be more

I wanting more
I'm always waiting on something other than this
Why am I feelin' like there's something I missed

There's gotta be more to life (Always)
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me
Cause the more that I'm (more that I'm)
Trippin' out thinkin' there must be more to life
Well it's life, but I'm sure (Always)

There's gotta be more to life
Than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me
Cause the more that I'm
Trippin' out thinkin' there must be more to life
Well it's life, but I'm sure
There's gotta be more to life

Lying awake, intent on tuning in on you
If I was young, it didn't stop you coming through
Oh-Oh

They took the credit for your second symphony
Rewritten by machine on new technology
And now I understand the supernova scene
Oh-Oh

I met your children
Oh-Oh
What did you tell them?

Woah!

And now we meet in an abandoned studio
You hear the playback and it seems so long ago
And you remember the jingles used to go

Oh-Oh
You were the first one
Oh-Oh
You were the last one

Video killed the Radio star

'Cause In my mind and in my car

I don't feel like coming down
It's in your eyes
I can tell what your thinking
My heart is sinking too
It's no surprise
I've been watching you lately
I want to make it with you

Destiny has a funny way
When it comes and takes
all your cares away
I can't think of a
single thing
Other than what a beautiful
state I'm in
Is the world still
spinning around

I don't feel like coming down
It's in your eyes
I can tell what your thinking
My heart is sinking too

It's no surprise
I've been watching you lately

The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
I'm not the kind of girl
Who gives up just like that
Oh, no

It's not the things you do that tease
And hurt me so
But it's the way you do the things you do for me
I'm not the kind of girl who gives up just like that
Oh, no

The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
The tide is high but I'm holding on

I'm gonna be your number one
The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
Number one, number one

Every time that I get the feeling,
You give me something to believe in,
Every time that I got you near me
I know the way that I want it to be,
But u know I'm gonna take my chance now,
I'm gonna make it happen some how,
And you know I can take the pressure
A moment's pain for a lifetime's pleasure

Every girl wants you to be her man
But I'll wait right here 'til it's my turn
I'm not the kind of girl
Who gives up just like that

The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
Number one, number one...

Bye bye blackbird

Where somebody waits for me
Sugar sweet so is she
Bye bye blackbird

No one seems to love or understand me
And all the hard luck stories they keep handing me
Where somebody shines the light
I'll be coming on home tonight
Bye bye blackbird

Nobody seems to love or understand me
And all the hard luck stories they keep on handing me
Where somebody shines the light
I'm coming on home tonight
Bye bye blackbird

Fresh out the gate again time to raise the stakes again
Fatten my plate again y'all cats know we always play to win
G A N G to the Starr's son
Haters took this shit too far son
So thats all for you I'm whiping out your whole team
I'll splatter your dreams with lyrics to shatter your schemes
The badder you seem, the more lies you tell
The more lies you sell, then by surprise you fell
Into my deathtrap, right into my clutches
Stupid, you know the God must bless every single mic he touches
I've suffered, just so I could return harder
Wanna be the shit starter? Fuck around, make you a martyr
I make ya famous, turn around and make ya nameless
Cause you never understood to me how vital this rap game is
Save it and hold that, you catch a hot one
Rhymes chase a fake nigga down soon as I spot one

Chorus: Gang Starr samples, except where noted
--Full clip--
--Do you wanna mess with this?--
--Gang Starr--
--I'm one of the best yet--
--I'm nice like that--
"It's all good" --- Noreaga
--In this business of rep--
*repeat, change last line to: --so I suggest you take a rest--*

[Guru]
So if you stand in my way, I'm gonna have to spray
Learn that "if you come against me son your gonna have to pray"
Since back in the day I held The Weight and kept my head up
The wanna see the God catch an L Itz all a Set Up
I give no man or thing power over me
Why these niggaz so jealous and lookin sour, over me?
I'm bolder, G, I'm like impossible to stop
I'm like that nigga in the ring with you, impossible to drop
I'm like two magazine fully loaded to your one
Plus I ain't gonna quit spittin, nigga, till your done
Plus, more than over, I got my whole shit together
More than a decade of hits, that'll live forever
Catchin rep off my name? Your bound to fry
Know how many niggaz that I know, is done to die
We never fail, and we ain't never been frail
You niggaz talk crime, but you scared of jail

Chorus

[Guru]
Attackin like a slick Apache lyrics are trigger happy
Pullin back your wig piece just for the way your lookin at me
Talk back, blaow! I hit you up right now
I don't know why so many of y'all wanna be thugs anyhow
Face the consequence, of your childish nonsense
I could make your head explode just by my lyrical content
Get you in my scope and metaphorically snipe ya
I never liked ya, I gas that ass and then ignite ya
The flame thrower, make your peops afraid to know ya
How many times I told ya, "play your position" small soldier
My heart is colder, makes me wanna resort to violence
Stop beatin me in the head son, nah, I'm not buyin it
I'm ready to blast, ready to surpass and harass
I'm ready to flip, yeah I'm ready to get with all that cash
I hold my chrome steady, with a tight grip
So watch your dome already cause this one might hit

Chorus

Once I had a love and
it was a gas
Soon turned out had a
heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing
only to find Mucho mistrust
love's gone behind
Once I had a love and
it was divine
Soon found out
I was losing my mind
It seemed like the
real thing
but I was so blind
Mucho mistrust
love's gone behind
In between
What I find is pleasing and
I'm feeling fine
Love is so confusing
there's no peace of mind
If I fear I'm losing you
it's just no good
You teasing like you do

Once I had a love and
it was a gas
Soon turned out had a
heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing
only to find
Mucho mistrust
love's gone behind
Lost inside
Adorable illusion and
I cannot hide
I'm the one you're using
please don't push me aside
We could a made it cruising
Yeah

Yeah riding high on love's
true bluish light

Once I had a love and
it was a gas
Soon turned out had a
heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing
only to find
Mucho mistrust
love's gone behind
In between
What I find is pleasing and
I'm feeling fine
Love is so confusing
there's no peace of mind
If I fear I'm losing you
it's just no good
You teasing like you do

But Yes now there
You teasing like you do

But Yes now there
You teasing like you do

Rain drops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things

Cream coloured ponies and crisp apple strudels
Doorbells and slaybells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snow flakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things

When the dog bites, when the bee stings,
when I`m feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
and then I don`t feel so bad

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snow flakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things

When the dog bites, when the bee stings,
when I`m feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
and then I don`t feel so bad

Wonderful
by Everclear




(spoken intro) Wonderful.....Isn't it wonderful now...

I close my eyes when I get too sad
I think thoughts that I know are bad
Close my eyes and I count to ten
Hope it's over when I open them

I want the things that I had before
Like a Star Wars poster on my bedroom door
I wish I could count to ten
Make everything be wonderful again

I hope my mom and I hope my dad
Will figure out why they get so mad
Hear them scream, I hear them fight
They say bad words and make me want to cry

Close my eyes when I go to bed and I
Dream of adventures that make me smile
I feel better when I hear them say
Everything will be wonderful some day

Promises mean everything
When you're little and the world is so big
I just don't understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eyes
And tell me everything is wonderful now

Na na nana........
Please don't tell me everthing is wonderful now

I go to school and I run and play
I tell the kids that it's all ok
I laugh aloud so my friends wont know
When the bell rings I just don't want to go home
Go to my room and I close my eyes
I make believe I have a new life
I don't believe you when you say
Everything will be wonderful some day

Promises mean everything
When you're little and the world is so big (so big)
I just don't understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eyes
When you tell me everything is wonderful now

Na na nana........
No. No. I don't want to hear you tell me everything is wonderful now.
No. No. I don't want to hear you tell me everything is wonderful now.
I don't want to hear you say that I will understand some day
No. No. No. No.
I don't want to hear you say both have grown in a different way
No. No. No.
No I don't want to meet your friend
I don't want to start over again
I just want my life to be the same
Just like it used to be
Somedays, I hate everything
I hate everything
Everyone and everything

Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now.
Na na nana....

No. Please don't want to hear you tell me everything is wonderful now...

No. Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now..
Na nana..
Everything is wonderful now...

Falling silent like the rain
falling silent like the rain -

Like you I cry sometimes
I see your face in every drop of rain
You touch me so deep inside
Like you I die without the pain
The sweetest pain
So hard to break
Remember us falling
silent like the rain

You can make me strong
enough to carry us
falling silent like the rain

You can take me high above
on wings of love
falling silent like the rain

We’ve gone a million miles
underneath an ever changing sky
The wather still burns my eyes
Even angels wonder why
I feel new born
I wouldn’t torn
the memory strong
falling silent like the rain

You can make me
strong enough to carry us
falling silent like the rain
You can take me high above
on wings of love
falling silent like the rain
Hey yeah
Hey yeah -

Like you I die without the pain
The sweetest pain
so hard to break
remember us
falling silent like the rain

You can make me
strong enough to carry us
falling silent like the rain
You can take me high above
on wings of love
falling silent like the rain
Hey yeahh

You can make me
strong enough to carry us
falling silent like the rain
You can take me high above
on wings of love
falling silent like the rain
Hey yeahh

You can make me
strong enough to carry us
falling silent like the rain
You can take me high above
on wings of love -

You had me
You lost me
You're wasted
You cost me
I don't want you here
messing with my mind
Spitting in my eyes
and I still see
Tried to keep me down
I'm breaking free
I don't want no part
in your next fix
Someone needs to tell you
this is it
Hey listen you'll be missin'
Out on all my love
and my kissing
Make your mistakes
on your own time
When you come down
you're just no
good to have around
Instead of making money
you took mine
You had me
You lost me
You're wasted
You cost me
I don't want you here
messing with my mind
I've realized in time
That my eyes are not blind
I've seen it before
I'm taking back my life

You tried to trade on my naivete
But the things you do and say
embarrass me
See once upon a time
I was your fool
But the one I leave behind
is you
Hey listen you'll be missin'
Out on all my love
and my kissing
Make your mistakes
on your own time
When you come down
you're just no
good to have around
Instead of making money
you took mine
You had me
You lost me
You're wasted
You cost me
I don't want you here
messing with my mind
I've realized in time
That my eyes are not blind
I've seen it before
I'm taking back my life
Vodka and a packet of cigarettes
That's all it used to be but now
You're sniffing on snow
when you're feeling low
Suffocating dreams
that could have been
Maybe for a minute
I was down with that
But it didn't take long for me
to see the light
You swore you had control of it
But when I stepped back
you slipped on your supply

You had me
You lost me
You're wasted
You cost me
I don't want you here
messing with my mind
I've realized in time
That my eyes are not blind
I've seen it before
I'm taking back my life
Taking it back
I'm taking it back
Taking back my life
Taking it back
I'm taking it back
Taking back my life
Ain't nobody got no business
stressing all the time
Taking it back
I'm taking it back
Taking back my life
You had me
You lost me
You're wasted
You cost me
I don't want you here
messing with my mind
I've realized in time
That my eyes are not blind
I've seen it before
I'm taking back my life
Taking it back
I'm taking it back
Taking back my life
Taking it back
I'm taking it back
Taking back my life
Ain't nobody got no business
stressing all the time
Taking it back
I'm taking it back
Taking back my life

So, is this how it goes,
Think you've come this far,
And then it'll show,
But that aint so, oh no,
You don't see where you are,
And if you don't wanna look back
You'll never know,
Cuz you think that you've been here
Just treading water
Waiting in the wings for the show to begin
But I always see you searching
And you try that bit harder
Getting closer, oh yeah
To the life you're imagining

(I just know your life's gonna change)
Maybe not today, maybe not today,
But some day soon you'll be alright,
(I just know your life's gonna change)
Turn the other way, turn the other way,
Feels like luck is on your side,
No worries, no worries,
No worries, no worries

You wanna know more, more,
more about me
I'm the girl who's kicking the coke machine
I'm the one that's honking at you
cuz I left late again Hey! Hey! Hey!

(Feel Good.....)

City′s breaking down on a camel’s back.
They just have to go ′cos they dont hold back
So all you fill the streets it’s appealing to see
You wont get out the county,
′cos you′re bad and free

You′ve got a new horizon It′s ephemeral style.
A melancholy town where we never smile.
And all I wanna hear is the message beep.
My dreams, they′ve got to kiss,
because I dont get sleep, no..

Windmill, Windmill for the land.
Learn forever hand in hand
Take it all in on your stride
It is sticking, falling down
Love forever love is free
Let’s turn forever you and me
Windmill, windmill for the land
Is everybody in?

Laughing gas these hazmats, fast cats,
Lining them up like ass cracks,
Ladies, homies, at the track
its my chocolate attack.

Shit, I′m stepping in the heart of this here
Care bear bumping in the heart of this here
watch me as I gravitate
hahahahahahaa.

Yo, we gonna go ghost town,
this motown, with yo sound
you′re in the place
you gonna bite the dust Cant fight with us
With yo sound you kill the INC.

so dont stop, get it, get it
until you′re cheddar header.
Yo, watch the way I navigate
ahahahahahhaa.
Feel Good Feel Good Feel Good Feel Good

[Verse 1:]
The fights, those nights
I tried to pretend it don’t hurt
The way, I prayed
Someday that you would love me
Really, completely
Just how I wanted it to be
But no, so wrong
Can’t believe I stayed with you so long

[B-Chorus:]
You hit, you spit, you split, ever-y bit of me, yeah
You stole, you broke, you’re cold
You’re such a joke to me, yeah

[Chorus:]
For every last bruise you gave me
For every time I sat in tears
For the million ways you hurt me
I just wanna tell you this
You broke my world, made me strong
Thank you
Messed up my dreams, made me strong
Thank you

[Verse 2:]
My head, near dead
Just the way you wanted it
My soul, stone cold
Cos I was under you’re control
So young, so dumb
Knew just how to make me succumb
But I un-derstand
To make yourself feel like a man

[B-Chorus:]
You hit, you spit, you split, ever-y bit of me, yeah
You stole, you broke, you’re cold
You’re such a joke to me, yeah

[Chorus:]
For every last bruise you gave me
For every time I sat in tears
For the million ways you hurt me
I just wanna tell you this
You broke my world, made me strong
Thank you
Messed up my dreams, made me strong
Thank you

[Middle eight:]
You coulda had it all babe
It coulda been so right
I woulda given you everything
Morning through night
Yeah, you taught me some lessons
Those are my blessings
That wont happen again
Thank you

I can't get out of bed today
Or get you off my mind
I just can't seem to find a way
To leave this love behind

I ain't trippin
I'm just missing you
You know what I'm saying
You know what I mean

You kept me hanging on a string
While you make me cry
I tried to give you everything
But you just gave me lies

I ain't trippin
I'm just missing you
You know what I'm saying
You know what I mean

Every now and then
When I'm all alone
I've been wishing you would call me on the telephone
Say you want me back
But you never do
I feel like such a fool
There's nothing I can do..
I'm such a fool
For you

I can't take it
What am I waiting for?
My heart's still breaking
I miss you even more
And I can't fake it
The way I could before
I hate you but I love you
I can't stop thinking of you
It's true
I'm stuck on you

Now love's a broken record that's
Been skipping in my head
I keep singing yesterday
Why we've got to play these games we play?

I ain't trippin
I'm just missing you
You know what I'm saying
You know what I mean

Every now and then
When I'm all alone
I'll be wishing you will call me on the telephone
Say you want me back
But you never do
I feel like such a fool

I can't take it
What I am waiting for?
My heart's still breaking
I miss you even more
And I can't fake it
The way I could before
I hate you but I love you
I can't stop thinking of you
It's true
I'm stuck on you woo~~

Every now and then
When I'm all alone
I'll be wishing you will call me on the telephone
Say you want me back
But you never do
I feel like such a fool
There's nothing I can do..

For you

I can't stop thinking of you
I hate you but I love you
I can't stop thinking of you
Don't know what to do
I'm stuck on you

Pounding
by Doves


I can`t stand by
see you destroyed
I can`t be here and watch you burning
you lie for a moment, you lie as a decoy
It doesn`t matter if I give in easy
So why is it so hard to get by (and I said)
we so down
but it`s now or never baby
we don`t mind
if this don`t last forever
see the light
but it won`t last forever
seize the time
cause it`s now or never, baby
let`s leave at sunrise
let`s live by the ocean
I don`t mind if we, never come home ( at all)
Let`s steal the morning and set in motion
in and out of love and institutions
cause I know this can`t last for long
(and I said) we so down
but it`s now or never baby
we don`t mind
if this don`t last forever
see the light
but it won`t last forever
seize the time
cause it`s now or never, baby

So why is it so hard to get by (and I said)

Through the alleyways to cool off in the shadows
Then into the street following the water
There's a bearded man paddling in his canoe
Looks as if he has come all the way from the Cayman Islands

These canals, it seems, they all go in circles
Places look the same, and we're the only difference
The wind is in your hair, it's covering my view
I'm holding on to you, on a bike we've hired until tomorrow

If only they could see, if only they had been here
They would understand, how someone could have chosen
To go the length I've gone, to spend just one day riding
Holding on to you, I never thought it would be this clear

Yeah, I'm losing my edge.
I'm losing my edge.
The kids are coming up from behind.
I'm losing my edge.
I'm losing my edge to the kids from France and from London.
But I was there.

I was there in 1968.
I was there at the first Can show in Cologne.
I'm losing my edge.
I'm losing my edge to the kids whose footsteps I hear when they get on the decks.
I'm losing my edge to the Internet seekers who can tell me every member of every good group from 1962 to 1978.
I'm losing my edge.

To all the kids in Tokyo and Berlin.
I'm losing my edge to the art-school Brooklynites in little jackets and borrowed nostalgia for the unremembered eighties.

But I'm losing my edge.
I'm losing my edge, but I was there.
I was there.
But I was there.

I'm losing my edge.
I'm losing my edge.
I can hear the footsteps every night on the decks.
But I was there.
I was there in 1974 at the first Suicide practices in a loft in New York City.
I was working on the organ sounds with much patience.
I was there when Captain Beefheart started up his first band.
I told him, "Don't do it that way. You'll never make a dime."
I was there.
I was the first guy playing Daft Punk to the rock kids.
I played it at CBGB's.
Everybody thought I was crazy.
We all know.
I was there.
I was there.
I've never been wrong.

I used to work in the record store.
I had everything before anyone.
I was there in the Paradise Garage DJ booth with Larry Levan.
I was there in Jamaica during the great sound clashes.
I woke up naked on the beach in Ibiza in 1988.

But I'm losing my edge to better-looking people with better ideas and more talent.
And they're actually really, really nice.

I'm losing my edge.

I heard you have a compilation of every good song ever done by anybody.
Every great song by the Beach Boys. All the underground hits.
All the Modern Lovers tracks. I heard you have a vinyl of every Niagra record on German import.
I heard that you have a white label of every seminal Detroit techno hit - 1985, '86, '87.
I heard that you have a CD compilation of every good '60s cut and another box set from the '70s.

I hear you're buying a synthesizer and an arpeggiator and are throwing your computer out the window because you want to make something real. You want to make a Yaz record.

I hear that you and your band have sold your guitars and bought turntables.
I hear that you and your band have sold your turntables and bought guitars.

I don′t see myself when I look in the mirror
I see who I should be
I don′t see myself when I look in your eyes
Thank God for that

I don′t see myself when I look cross the river
I see where I should be
I don′t see myself when I look from the sky
Thank God for that
I hear them screaming
On the radio
Its getting louder
In the crossfire
Trying to find some hope
From the ashes of their broken homes

I don′t see myself when they fail to deliver
I see what I should be
I don′t see myself when I look at the flag
Thank God for that

I hear them screaming
On the radio
It′s getting louder
In the crossfire
Trying to find some hope

Our day will come
We′ll find the sun
We′ll find the fire
We′ll sanctify
The love we gave
Our one desire

I hear them screaming
On the radio
Its getting louder
In the crossfire
Trying to find some hope
I hear them screaming
On the radio
Its getting louder
In the crossfire
Trying to find some hope
From the ashes of their broken homes

I don′t see myself when I look in the mirror

I'm watchin' day time TV
I'm young and I'm restless
I'm on no sunset beach
I'm burning
up here in Texas
Paranoia on day street
Not enough to eat too many
burgers and these fries
Are makin' me crazy
It's kinda
strange growin' up here
Never less safe but
don't be afraid
You gotta take
what you get here
Cause nobodies gonna change
their ways
Many places to travel
in this world
No matter where I go
I'm an American girl
This Disney World's your
underworld
Try to escape it
Just face it
You American girl

We all have the same dream
We wake up
on a reality series
in a taxi cab confessing
We're having to much
Sex in the City
With our prepaid
cellular phones
We call apartment homes
by the time We're fourteen
Yeah were already grown
Where we'll end up from here
Well we don't really care
Oh we tear up everything
It's a love so be here
Many places to travel
in this world
No matter where I go
I'm an American girl
This Disney World's your
underworld
Try to escape it
Just face it
You American girl
Many places to travel
in this world
No matter where I go
I'm an American girl
This Disney World's your
underworld
Try to escape it
Just face it
You American girl

From Hooters to looters
We're drowning in beer
You're ruder I'm cruder
You're blurred and I'm clear
You're not helping me here
Cause we're living in fear
I'm not judging you
But I'll push you
and push you
Many places to travel
in this world
No matter where I go
I'm an American girl
This Disney World's your
underworld
Try to escape it
Just face it
You American girl
Many places to travel
in this world
No matter where I go
I'm an American girl
This Disney World's your
underworld
Try to escape it
Just face it
You American girl
