You'd Be So Nice to Come Home To by Cole Porter 

You'd be so nice to come home to
You'd be so nice by the fire

While that breeze on night sings a lullaby
You'd be all my heart could desire
Under stars chilled by the winter
Under an August moon shining above

You'd be so nice you'd be paradise
To come home to and love

(m. jagger/k. richards)

It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
Smiling faces I can see
But not for me
I sit and watch
As tears go by

My riches cant buy everything
I want to hear the children sing
All I hear is the sound
Of rain falling on the ground
I sit and watch
As tears go by

It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
Doin things I used to do
They think are new
I sit and watch
As tears go by

Sweet Lilac by Anonymous 

I ask you why
And you say that is your name
I knew that I would cry
Cuz that’s the name of the game for me

I asked you to stay
And you said, “Not dreaming.”
I knew that I could play
And that’s the name of the game for me

I saw you in a shadow
You were singing
Shadow rays
That’s where you’ll always be
Cuz that’s the name of the game for you

Oh you’re a cool kid
Oh you’re a fool
Know you’re a handsome man
You’ll teach me
You’re a school

Come back
Come back
Someday come back
And I’ll see you
In the black

Come back
Come back
Come back
And we’ll make it all black

Oh you’re a cool kid
Oh you’re a fool
Know you’re a handsome man
You’ll teach me
You’re a school

Daytime makes it right

Alone with themselves in the blues

Up to You by Anonymous 

Sometimes I get lost
And I think its time to call it a day
And I find and I can’t even start to stop a dream
I look back
To the times when I couldn’t stand
In front of myself
And back track to the sound of my most important theme
Following up to you

I see her and I see you and me reflected innocently
And I’m shown she’ll discover the world and maybe more
She wakes with a cry that just means she wants to be at it again
She makes up with those eyes
That I have seen all those times before
Following up to you

I can see the candle glowing
I can hear the winds are blowing
I still feel my heart a flowing
Flowing all over you

I can laugh and take my fun in
Play songs and maybe sun in
I feel my heart a running
Run all the way to you
Run all the way to you

Sometimes I get lost
And I think its time to call it a day
But I find that I can’t even start to stop a dream
Start to stop a dream
Start to stop a dream
Following up to you

I can see the candle glowing
I can hear the winds are blowing
I still feel my heart a flowing
Flowing all over you

I can laugh and take my fun in
Play songs and maybe sun in
I feel my heart a running
Run all the way to you
Run all the way to you
Run all the way to you

I See a Darkness by Bonnie 'Prince' Billy 

Well, you're my friend
And can you see
Many times we've been out drinking
Many times we've shared our thoughts
But did you ever, ever notice, the kind of thoughts I got
Well you know I have a love, a love for everyone I know
And you know I have a drive, to live I won't let go
But can you see this opposition, comes rising up sometimes
That is dreadful imposition, comes blackening in my mind


And then I see a darkness
And then I see a darkness
And then I see a darkness
And then I see a darkness
Did you know how much I love you
There's a hope that somehow you
Can save me from this darkness


Well I hope that someday buddy
We have peace in our lives
Together or apart
Alone or with our wives
And we can stop our whoring
And pull the smiles inside
And light it up forever
And never go to sleep
My best unbeaten brother
This isn't all I see


Oh no, I see your darkness
Oh no, I see your darkness
Oh no, I see your darkness
Oh no, I see your darkness
Did you know how much I love you
There's a hope that somehow you you
Can save me from this darkness

You've Got a Friend by Carol King 

When you're down and troubled
And you need some loving care
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
You've got a friend

If the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
Soon you'll hear me knocking at your door

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there

Ain't it good to know that you've got a friend
When people can be so cold
They'll hurt you, and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
Oh, but don't you let them

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
You've got a friend

Summersong by Jeff Eubank 

The sidewalk simmers, burning like musk in the air,
Weeds stick their heads out of cracks in the square,
The fair sounds echo with fun as its theme,
And windows fan themselves as children scream.

Everything is just the same as it seems,
Everything’s the same in summer in a summer dream.

The streetside windows open, music rolls out,
The prophet on the corner takes another bow,
The hydrant’s on so prepare for a drought.

The summer blooms with sonic booms and thunder’s tune,
While fireflies become the lightning of June.

The fading sunset whispers red,
From the glass building above my head,
Trees so high they assault the sky to be fed.

The summer blooms with sonic booms and thunder’s tune,
While fireflies become the lightning of June.

The Earthian summer’s like salt in the sea,
An endless supply, so a little for me.

My clothes are wet now and they stick to my skin,
I guess I’ll just go leave myself to a friend,
A summerwind…

Tebi Majko Misli Lete 

Tebi majko misli lete,
Preko polja i planina,
Iz daleka primi pozdrav
Od jedinog tvoga sina.

U tudini ja sam sada.
Sudbina nas rastavila.
Da li cu te ikad vise
Ja vidjeti majko mila?

Zaboravit nikad necu,
Tvoje oci blage, mile,
I rucice, majko, tvoje,
Koje su me othranile.

A Trip by Morgansorange 

i'd love to be in henderson
where anything is possible
and simple ideas become real,
real,real,real,real,real.
i love the fucking weather there
with a forecast of smiling
and a low front with no shame,
shame,shame,shame,shame,shame.
you hear the world so differently
it's a hell of a place
maybe i'll visit one soon day,
day,day,day,day,day.
or maybe,i'll move there and i'll stay.

Andy Warhol by Dana Gilespi 

Like to take a cement fix
Be a standing cinema
Dress my friends up
Just for show
See them as they really are
Put a peephole in my brain
Two New Pence to have a go
I'd like to be a gallery
Put you all inside my show

Andy Warhol looks a scream
Hang him on my wall
Andy Warhol, Silver Screen
Can't tell them apart at all

Andy walking, Andy tired
Andy take a little snooze
Tie him up when he's fast asleep
Send him on a pleasant cruise
When he wakes up on the sea
Be sure to think of me and you
He'll think about paint
and he'll think about glue
What a jolly boring thing to do

Andy Warhol looks a scream
Hang him on my wall
Andy Warhol, Silver Screen
Can't tell them apart at all

Andy Warhol looks a scream
Hang him on my wall
Andy Warhol, Silver Screen
Can't tell them apart at all

Let Me Stay a While by Bergen White 

La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
Can I stay with you a while
I don't mind behind your smile
You don't have to say
The things you used to say
Just let me sleep here for a time
In the warmth of your love and mine
And tomorrow I'll be on my way
For now just hold me
In the warmth of your gentle smile
Just tonight I'm with you
And I'll be goin' on my way
For now just hide me
'Til I have the strength to go
For now all I want to know
Is morning and your sigh
Let me stay with you a while
I don't mind behind your smile
You don't have to say
The things you used to say
No, no
Just let me sleep here for a time
In the warmth of your lovin' mind
Until I find the strength to go
La la la la la la la

I Have Been Alone by Common People 

I’ve been groovin’ a long time
Time to make my love
To see that she is mine
Givin’ her all my feelings
Given too much time
I have been alone

Say there
What have I done wrong
For our love
To take so long
Times I have waited
Times I have died
I have been alone

Say it now
Tell me
What I am to do
Seem that that can’t
Get through to you
Given too much feeling
Given too much time
I have been alone

Hexagon by Judy Lander 

From the highways and jungles
The dragons came down
To bribed me with diamonds
To bribe me with crowns
To bribe me with crowns
They wanted to know
Just what I believed
I ran away laughing
When they let me leave
They let me leave
I ran to the mountains
I fell into caves
I met all the witches
In their black parades
Oh, their black parades
One spoke of the anvil
One spoke of the stake
They bound me with spells
That I could not break

And I’m running
Oh, running
I’ve got to escape – I’m runnin’
I know I’m too late
I’m runnin’
Oh, yeah

In fear of these cliffs
I fell back to the streets
These flames at my head
Ah, these flames at my feet
Flames at my feet
The pied piper screamed
You know it’s coming soon
I asked him what is it
He pointed to the moon
And I’m running
Oh, running
I’ve got to escape – I’m runnin’
I know I’m too late
I’m runnin’
Oh, yeah

The hustler and thief
They were very discrete
Made it quite clear
That we should never meet
Oh, never should meet
But the games are all stolen
They own only fear
Each walked into mirrors
And both disappeared

And I’m running
Oh, running
I’ve got to escape – I’m runnin’
I know I’m too late
I’m runnin’
Oh, yeah

The streets are just skeletons
They gnaw at my skull
I can’t be too sure
If there's anything there at all
Anything there at all
I’d ask the man that just set up his booth
But I’m afraid he might tell me the truth

And I’m running
Oh, running
I’ve got to escape – I’m runnin’
I know I’m too late
I’m runnin’
Oh, yeah

From Within by Sapphire Thinkers 

No matter what you feel
You got to feel from within
And everyday you wake
You wonder how you're gonna feel
Let me say to you
If you feel it from within
You make it easy for the one you love to reach you

No matter how you try
You're gonna fall a few times
And after all the bad has settled down in your soul
Let me say to you
If you feel it from within
You make it easy for the one you love to reach you

Down to my soul
Down to my knees
Let me say to you
If you feel it from within
You make it easy for the one you love to reach you


Down to my soul
Down to my heart
Down to my knees

Turquoise by Joan Baez 

Your eyes - beams like sunlight - on the gull's wing
and the leaves - dance and play - after you
Take my hand - and hold it - as you would a flower
take care with my heart - oh darling - she's made of glass

Your eyes - feel like sunlight - resting on me
and the birds - cease to sing - when you rise
Ride easy - your fairy stallion - you have mounted
take care how you fly - my precious - you might fall down

In the pastel - shaded of sunlight - skies I have wandered
with my eyes and ears and heart - strained to the full
I know I tasted the essence - in those few days
take care who you love - oh, darling - he might not know

Frozen Love written by L. Buckingham and S. Nicks 

You may not be as strong as me
And I may not care to teach you
It may be hard to keep up with me
But I'll always be able to reach you
And if you go forward (if you go forward)
I'll meet you there
And if you climb up through the cold, freezing air
Look down below you; search out above
And cry out to life for a frozen love
Cry, love

Life gave me you; yeah, the change was made
And there's no beginning over
You are not happy, but what is love?
Hate gave you me for a lover...
And if you go forward (if you go forward)
I'll meet you there
And if you climb up through the cold, freezing air
Look down below you; search out above
And cry out to life for a frozen love
Cry, love

You may not be (You may not be)
As strong as me (as strong as me)
And I may not care (I may not care)
To teach you (to teach you)
It may be hard (It may be hard)
To keep up with me (to keep up with me)
But I'll always...
Yes, I'm always going to be able to reach you
And if you go forward (if you go forward)
I'll meet you there
And if you climb up through the cold, freezing air
Look down below you; search out above
And cry out to life for a frozen love
Cry, love

Hand in Glove by Edie Shaw 

Hand in glove
The sun shines out of our behinds
No, it's not like any other love
This one is different - because it's us

Hand in glove
We can go wherever we please
And everything depends upon
How near you stand to me


And if the people stare
Then the people stare
Oh, I really don't know and I really don't care


Kiss My Shades

Hand in glove
The Good People laugh
Yes, we may be hidden by rags
But we've something they'll never have


Hand in glove
The sun shines out of our behinds
Yes, we may be hidden by rags
But we've something they'll never have


And if the people stare
Then the people stare
Oh, I really don't know and I really don't care


Kiss My Shades ... oh ...

So, hand in glove I stake my claim
I'll fight to the last breath


If they dare touch a hair on your head
I'll fight to the last breath


For the Good Life is out there somewhere
So stay on my arm, you little charmer


But I know my luck too well
Yes, I know my luck too well
And I'll probably never see you again
I'll probably never see you again
I'll probably never see you again
Oh ...

Pyrite Pedestal by Pretty Girls Make Graves 

Once, while falling into approvals tricky arms
I saw esteem's corpse
Deafened by allure's sweet, sweet song
On stygian shores
Affixed like I'm under a spell (1x darling)
That ain't even like myself
No - things are going to change
That starts today
It seems just yesterday I ate it up
Your yarns were dipped in gold
I swallowed them whole
The real tragedy is that your act is just boring and old
Back and forth with this disdain (1x darling)
That ain't even why I came (2x darling)
And when I scream
You want me crawling on my knees
I guess these days I'm someone else (hold it x3)
I'm better off all by myself
These days I'm just somebody else

Punch and Judy by Elliot Smith 

a wallflower punch talks to Judy
in a crowded corner where anybody can listen in
but they don't read page to page or speak easy
now they're gonna go say the words
in the wrong order again

they walk in a circle
through all the sidewalk scenes theyused to be apart of one time
now everybody just stares and whispers
driving around up and down division street
I used to like it here
it just bums me out to remember

can't you ever treat anyone nice
I think I'm gonna make the same mistake twice
they draw the curtain, wait for a call
pretty lucky if they get any kind of response at all

can't you ever treat anyone nice
I think I'm gonna make the same mistake twice
I'm gonna make the same mistake twice

Age of Consent 

Won't you please let me go
These words lie inside they hurt me so
And I'm not the kind that likes to tell you
Just what I want to do
I'm not the kind that needs to tell you
Just what you want me to

I saw you this morning
I thought that you might like to know
I received your message in full a few days ago
I understood every word that it said
And now that I've actually heard it
You're going to regret

And I'm not the kind that likes to tell you
Just what you want me to
You're not the kind that needs to tell me
About the birds and the bees

Do you find this happens all the time
Crucial point one day becomes a crime
And I'm not the kind that likes to tell you
Just what I want to do
I'm not the kind that needs to tell you

I've lost you
I've lost you
I've lost you

What Difference Does it Make? by The Smiths 

All men have secrets and here is mine
So let it be known
We have been through hell and high tide
I can surely rely on you ...
And yet you start to recoil
Heavy words are so lightly thrown
But still I'd leap in front of a flying bullet for you

So, what difference does it make ?
So, what difference does it make ?
It makes none
But now you have gone
And you must be looking very old tonight


The devil will find work for idle hands to do
I stole and I lied, and why ?
Because you asked me to !
But now you make me feel so ashamed
Because I've only got two hands
Well, I'm still fond of you, oh-ho-oh


So, what difference does it make ?
Oh, what difference does it make ?
Oh, it makes none
But now you have gone
And your prejudice won't keep you warm tonight


Oh, the devil will find work for idle hands to do
I stole, and then I lied
Just because you asked me to
But now you know the truth about me
You won't see me anymore
Well, I'm still fond of you, oh-ho-oh


But no more apologies
No more apology
Oh, I'm too tired
I'm so very tired
And I'm feeling very sick and ill today
But I'm still fond of you, oh-ho-oh


Oh, my sacred one ...
Oh ...

Young Lust by Pink Floyd

Stranger in this town

Make me feel like a real man?
Take this rock n roll refugee
Ooo Babe, set me free

Ooooo I need a dirty woman
Ooooo I need a dirty girl

Ooooo I need a dirty woman
Ooooo I need a dirty girl

"I wonder why he hung up..."
"There must be someone else there
besides your wife to answer."

"Are we reaching?"

I Want to Do Everything for You by Joe Tex 

I want to hold you in my arms ‘till you say “turn me loose”
I want to do little things to you ‘till you say “It ain’t no use”
I want to wake you every morning with a good morning kiss
I want to kiss you to sleep the same way cause I, I know you like this
I want to do everything for you
Cause that’s all that a man can do
When he loves a woman like I love you
And I love ya, love ya, love ya
I want to say sweet things to you ‘till you say I’ve said enough
I want to stand right by your side when the goin’ gets tough
I want to mend your broken heart till you say the hurt is gone
I want tostay with you always so that you won’t be alone
I want to do everything for you
Cause that’s all that a man can do
When he loves a woman like I love you
And I love ya, love ya, love ya
I want to work for you every day ‘till you say “come home and rest”
I want to buy you pretty little things so you can look your best
I want to take you every where so the world can see what I got
I want to treat you with tender love ‘till you say I’ve got to stop
I want to do everything for you
‘Cause that’s all that a man can do
When he loves a woman like I love you
And I love ya, love ya, love ya
I want to do everything for you
Cause that’s all that a man can do
When he loves a woman like I love you
And I love ya, love ya, love ya, love ya

Lucifer Sam - Pink Floyd 

Lucifer Sam saw your cat
always sitting by your side
always by you side
that cat's something I can't explain
Jennifer Gentle you're the witch
you're the left side, he's the right side
oh no
that cat's something I can't explain
Wouldn't say we're going to see
me a hip cat, me a ship's cat
somewhere, anywhere
that cat's something I can't explain

Memorablia by Soft Cell 

Everywhere I go, I take a little piece of you
I collect, I reject, photographs I took of you
The towns that I passed through, I've got to have a memory
Or I have never been there.
I have never had you, had you, had you...
I can’t remember, give me a reminder
I collect, I reject memorabilia... memorabilia

Key chains and snow storms
Give me a reminder, give me a reminder
I collect, I reject mmmmmmmmmemorabilia
Key chains and snow storms
Give me a reminder...

Everywhere I go you know I’d like you all to know
That I’m the one for having fun, just send the bad times on the run
To move around to the softest sound, ecstatic dancing all around
I’m on the town, I’ll give you hell, if you don’t put me in my cell.

I may be soft, I made the top, I like my cabaret non-stop,
It may be erotic, it may be ecstatic
With it down on your floor or in your attic.

You take it low or shut our eyes, and let our love materialise,
And I don’t mean love on a chocolate box, I mean the love that really rocks
I say call me the baby, the good time lady,
Just look at me and it’s easy to see why they call me Cindy Ecstasy.

Because I’ve got the eyes, the where's, the why's to make your love thing really rise,
You don’t need your speed or your pair of wheels.
You’ve got the prize that will brighten your skies.

So look me up and I’ll tell no lies,
Coz I’m the lady with the hot surprise,
If you don’t believe me, ask Soft Cell, because I shook them up and I gave
them hell.
So Call up Cindy Ecstasy if you’re looking for a memory

So call up Cindy Ecstasy if you’re looking for a memory

Go turn the beat around, got to hear percussion, turn it upside down,
got to hear percussion, got to hear percussion...

Memorabilia...memorabilia

Stay Out of Trouble by Kings Of Convenience 

(One, two...One, two...)

I walked around for hours, two ten pence pieces in my hand
I was alone and freezing, still trying hard to understand you

I left the others knowing, I had to work this by myself
But now the feeling's growing, I would be better off with their help

So baby, what we've got
Has lately not been enough
Not been enough

I wish I had your scarf still, that once embraced and kept me warm
I wish you could be with me, in these last days when I am still hopelessly poor

Stay out of trouble
Stay in touch
Try not to think about me too much

Stay out of trouble
Stay in touch
Try not to think about me too much

Jump (cover of a Van Halen Song) by The Tender Buttons 

I get up, and nothing gets me down.
You got it tough. I’ve seen the toughest around.
And I know, baby, just how you feel.
You’ve got to roll with the punches to get to what’s real
Oh can’t you see me standing here,
I’ve got my back against the record machine
I ain’t the worst that you’ve seen.
Oh can’t you see what I mean ?

Might as well jump.
Go ahead, jump.
Hear me now, jump.
Go ahead, jump.

You say you don’t know, you won’t know
Until we begin.

Oh, can’t you see me standing here
I’ve got my back straight
And I wanna die
Don’t ask me twice, I can’t tell you why.

I don’t care if I’m gonna die.

Might as well jump !
Go ahead, jump.!
Jump, jump.
Go ahead, jump.

Good Friday by Coco Rosie 

I once fell in love with you
Just because the sky turned from gray
Into blue
It was a good friday
The streets were open and empty
No more passion play
On st. Nicholas avenue
I believe in st. Nicholas
Its a different type of santa clause

Bridges and Balloons by Joanna Newsom 

We sailed away on a winter's day
With fate as malleable as clay
But ships are fallible, i say
And the nautical, like all things, fades

And i can recall our caravel
A little wicker beetle-shell
With four fine masts and lateen sails
Its bearings on cair paravel

Oh my love
Oh it was a funny little thing
To be the ones to've seen

The sight of bridges and balloons
Makes calm canaries irritable
And they caw and claw all afternoon
Catenaries and dirigibles

Brace and buoy the livingroom
A loom of metal, warp - woof - wimble
And a thimble's worth of milky moon
Can touch hearts larger than a thimble

Oh my love
Oh it was a funny little thing
To be the ones to've seen

Oh my love
Oh it was a funny little thing
It was a funny, funny little thing
To be the ones to've seen

Armour of the Shroud by Bobb Trimble 

Here I am, my love
And I'm just a moment away
And I've waited so long
Now my heart is here to stay
Just a matter of time, my love
Don't let it confuse us or our love

There you are, my love
I can feel you drawing near
And how long you have waited
At last your heart is finally here
And I'll fulfill all of your fantasies
In this, the twentieth century B.C.

So you've waited so long
Now you know it was well worth the wait
And you come gather around
And you just congregate
Well, the Rolling Stones come to town
Don't throw The Prefab Messiahs out-of-bounds
God save those dreamers
They're all that's left sometimes
God save those dreamers
They're all that's left in life
Purple feathers in your ear
Don't mean nothin' 'round here
God save you dreamers

Here we are, my love
We can see the stars in the sky
But we did not see them shine
Until the heavens opened our eyes
It's time for the world to have to realize
About a man who they immortalized
To which beliefs he was sacrificed
Upon a cross which still crucifies in A.D.

Peaceful, Easy Feeling - The Eagles 

I like the way your sparkling earrings lay
Against your skin so brown
And I want to sleep with you in the desert tonight
With a billion stars all around

'Cause I got a peaceful easy feelin'
And I know you won't let me down
Cause I'm already standin'
On the ground

And I found out a long time ago
What a woman can do to your soul
Ah, but she can't take you any way
You don't already know how to go

I get this feelin' I may know you
As a lover and a friend
But this voice keeps whisperin' in my other ear
Tells me I may never see you again

I get a peaceful easy feelin'
And I know you won't let me down
Cause I'm already standin'
Yes I'm already standin'
Yes I'm already standin'
On the ground

Honesty by Billy Joel 

If you search for tenderness
It isn't hard to find
You can have the love you need to live
But if you look for truthfulness
You might just as well be blind
It always seems to be so hard to give

Honesty is such a lonely word
Everyone is so untrue
Honesty is hardly ever heard
And mostly what I need from you

I can always find someone
To say they sympathize
If I wear my heart out on my sleeve
But I don't want some pretty face
To tell me pretty lies
All I want is someone to believe

I can find a lover
I can find a friend
I can have security
Until the bitter end
Anyone can comfort me
With promises again
I know, I know

When I'm deep inside of me
Don't be too concerned
I won't ask for nothin' while I'm gone
But when I want sincerity
Tell me where else can I turn
Because you're the one that I depend upon

Boats and Birds by Gregory and the Hawk 

If you be my star, I'll be your sky
You can hide underneath me and come out at night
When I turn jet black and you show off your light
I live to let you shine, I live to let you shine

You can skyrocket away from me
And never come back if you find another galaxy
Far from here with more room to fly
Just leave me your stardust to remember you by

If you'll be my boat, I'll be your sea
The depth of pure blue just to probecuriousity
Ebbing and flowing and pushed by a breeze
I live to make you free, I live to make you free

And you can set sail to the west if you want to
Past the horizon til I can't even see you
Far from here where the beaches are wide
Just leave me your wake to remember you by

If you be my star, I'll be your sky
You can hide underneath me and come out at night
When I turn jet black and you show off your light
I live to let you shine, I live to let you shine

You can skyrocket away from me
And never come back if you find another galaxy
Far from here with more room to fly
Just leave me your stardust to remember you by

Stardust to remember you by

Love to See You by Suzzy Roche 

It may be what I wanna do
But I won't fall in lover with you
You are never gonna be mine
But I just love to see you

Old moon shining starlight
But I can't have my wish tonight
You are never gonna be mine
But I just love to see you

Can you hear me
Can you hear me
Can you hear me friend

No one nowhere can take your place
The happy sad look on your face
You are never gonna be mine
But I just love to see you

Love Song by Vashti Bunyan 

I love your eyes when you look away
Thinking somewhere else of what ought to be
When they’re suddenly blue for a moment of time
Then the colour goes when you look at me

I love your hands as a part of you
As they write a word just by staying still
When you talk they move, painting what you say
So I understand more than words can tell

I love your hair in the dark it’s soft
In the light it moves, red and green are brown
All the time it takes for a night to pass
And a lifetime grows as the day comes down

I love you now as you don’t love me
I can’t let you know you’re too far away
But I wonder now just what did you see
When you looked at me in that loveless way

God Is Alive Magic Is Afoot by Buffy Sainte-Marie 

God is alive; Magic is afoot
God is alive; Magic is afoot
God is afoot; Magic is alive
Alive is afoot.....
Magic never died.

God never sickened;
many poor men lied
many sick men lied
Magic never weakened
Magic never hid
Magic always ruled
God is afoot
God never died.

God was ruler
though his funeral lengthened
Though his mourners thickened
Magic never fled
Though his shrouds were hoisted
the naked God did live
Though his words were twisted
the naked Magic thrived
Though his death was published
round and round the world
the heart did not believe

Many hurt men wondered
many struck men bled
Magic never faltered
Magic always led.
Many stones were rolled
but God would not lie down
Many wild men lied
many fat men listened
Though they offered stones
Magic still was fed
Though they locked their coffers
God was always served.
2..

Magic is afoot. God rules.
Alive is afoot. Alive is in command.
Many weak men hungered
Many strong men thrived
Though they boasted solitude
God was at their side
Nor the dreamer in his cell
nor the captain on the hill
Magic is alive
Though his death was pardoned
round and round the world
the heart did not believe.

Though laws were carved in marble
they could not shelter men
Though altars built in parliaments
they could not order men
Police arrested Magic
and Magic went with them,
for Magic loves the hungry.

But Magic would not tarry
it moves from arm to arm
it would not stay with them
Magic is afoot
it cannot come to harm
it rests in an empty palm
it spawns in an empty mind
but Magic is no instrument
Magic is the end.

Many men drove Magic
but Magic stayed behind
Many strong men lied
they only passed through Magic
and out the other side
Many weak men lied
they came to God in secret
and though they left him nourished
they would not say who healed
Though mountains danced before them
they said that God was dead
Though his shrouds were hoisted
the naked God did live

3...

This I mean to whisper to my mind
This I mean to laugh with in my mind
This I mean my mind to serve 'til
service is but Magic
moving through the world
and mind itself is Magic
coursing through the flesh
and flesh itself is Magic
dancing on a clock
and time itself the magic length of God

Fall 1982 



My name is Cammie. I'm 7. I like reading books about outer space, nature and geography that my grandmother gives me. I go to a Christian school but my parents are not religious. I think Jesus was an alien and I'll never tell my teachers. My parents divorced when I was 2. I stay with 1 one week and then the other the next week, back and forth. So I have 2 homes. I have a lot of toys and clothes because I have 2 houses and my friends say I'm spoiled. I like going to plays with my mom and out on the boat with my dad. I hate sports. I'm in art class and like drawing portraits. My grandma is a painter. My dad is an architect and my mom is the most beautiful woman in the world. I hope I'm as pretty as her someday, but funnier like my dad. I think boys are funner than girls. But sometimes boys are too rough. That's the only reason why I don't really like them. They like to whip me with my braids and that's so annoying. It's not funny at all really and it hurts my head. But girls are brats. They like to say mean things about each other behind their backs and I thinks that's really ugly. Basically I don't have many friends because I'm not in the neighborhood so much and when I am I'm too busy going out to dinner or the movies with parents to play after school. I'm an only child but I like it. I'm a loner. I prefer adults. I like talking with my parents friends. They are all very nice people from all over the world. When I grow up I don't think I will ever get married because I don't like to share a bed and I'm afraid to have kids. It seems like it would hurt too much. I might like to adopt if I do get married. If I do get married I want to live in separate houses or a mansion because I don't want someone always right next to me. I'm worried because I've only read that some people do that but I've never met anyone that really has. I might be the first person to try it different. All my friends have divorced parents. A lot of kids only have 1 parent, that I know. I think that's so sad and I don't want that to ever happen to a kid I could have. I'm lucky. My parents just don't like each other because my mom is serious and my dad is a joker. It makes me sad, but what can you do? My Aunt Doris thinks she's psychic and says I'm going to be famous someday! I never want to be famous because a person can never have any privacy if they are famous. It seems like it would be really hard being Brook Shields or Oliva Newton John, to me. When I grow up I want to help people find what they are looking for. I don't know why. I also want to write stories about life for all the other people like me that don't have too many friends. I don't want to go to college because I hate math. The End.

Sandstorms by Viking Moses 

I love her little brown hairs
Every freckle every fold in her skin there
And the scent of her lifting, dancing up to my nose

So I got the idea
To dig a hole and watch all the life there
I said a lonely prayer and I left them
There on their own


O I want to be in heaven
I hope there's some one there
When I hold her
Bless her little heart
Keep it goin'
Willful and strong

And the sun beats down
Its hot, as you know
And the sandstorms tear
Through skin as they blow

Yes I understand fear
I get plenty of it
Built up right here
But when the sun goes down
And the wind dies
We're left polished and clear

Totally Together by Jackie Mittoo 

Listen here
I’m totally
Together!

Hey!
Listen to me!
I’m totally
Together!

Right on
Baby

Yeah, yeah.

There Is A Light That Never Goes Out / Redondo Beach lyrics by Morrissey 

(Check the Schneider TM vs. Kpt. Michi. Gan version)

Take me out tonight
Where there’s music and there’s people
And they’re young and alive
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven’t got one
Anymore

Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people and i
Want to see life
Driving in your car
Oh, please don’t drop me home
Because it’s not my home, it’s their
Home, and I’m welcome no more

* And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine

Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere, I don’t care
I don’t care, I don’t care
And in the darkened underpass
I thought oh god, my chance has come at last
(But then a strange fear gripped me and i
Just couldn’t ask)

Take me out tonight
Oh, take me anywhere, I don’t care
I don’t care, I don’t care
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven’t got one, da ...
Oh, I haven’t got one

[Repeat *]

Oh, there is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out

Sweet Janes - The Velvet Underground 

Standing on the corner, suitcase in my hand,
Jack is in his corset, and Jane is in her vest, and, me,
I'm in a rock'n'roll band. Huh!
Ridin' in a Stutz-Bearcat, Jim
Y'know, those were different times!
Oh, all the poet, they studied rules of verse,
And the ladies, they rolled their eyes.
Sweet Jane! Whoa! Sweet Jane, oh-oh-a! Sweet Jane!
I'll tell you something,
Jack, he is a banker,
And Jane, she is a clerk.
Both of them save their monies, ha,
And when, when they come home from work!
Ooh! Sittin' down by the fire, oh!
The radio does play,
The classical music there, Jim.
"The March of the Wooden Soldiers".
All you protest kids.
You can hear Jack say, get ready, ah,
Sweet Jane! Come on baby! Sweet Jane! Oh-oh-a! Sweet Jane!
Some people, they like to go out dancing,
And other peoples, they have to work. Just watch me now!
And there's even some evil mothers,
Well they're gonna tell you that everything is just dirt.
Y'know that, women, never really faint,
And that villains always blink their eyes, woo!
And that, y'know, children are the only ones who blush!
And that, life is, just to die!
And, everyone who ever had a heart, oh,
That wouldn't turn around and break it.
And anyone who ever played a part, whoa,
And wouldn't turn around and hate it!
Sweet Jane! Whoa-oh-oh! Sweet Jane! Sweet Jane. Sweet Jane.
Sweet Jane. Sweet Jane.

Crimson and Clover - The Velvet Underground 

Ah and I don't hardly know her
But I think I could love her
Crimson and clover
Ah, when will she come walking over
Now I've been waiting to show her
Crimson and clover
Over and over
Yeah
My mind's such a sweet thing
I want to do everything
What a beautiful feeling
Crimson and clover
Over and over
Da da da da da da...
Crimson and clover
Over and over
Crimson and clover
Over and over...

Look at Miss Ohio - Gilian Welch 

Oh me oh my oh, look at Miss Ohio
She’s a-running around with her rag-top down
She says I wanna do right but not right now

Gonna drive to Atlanta and live out this fantasy
Running around with the rag-top down
Yeah I wanna do right but not right now

Had your arm around her shoulder, a regimental soldier
An’ mamma starts pushing that wedding gown
Yeah you wanna do right but not right now

Oh me oh my oh, would ya look at Miss Ohio
She’s a-runnin’ around with the rag-top down
She says I wanna do right but not right now

I know all about it, so you don’t have to shout it
I’m gonna straighten it out somehow
Yeah I wanna do right but not right now

Oh me oh my oh, look at Miss Ohio
She a-runnin’ around with her rag-top down
She says I wanna do right , but not right now
Oh I wanna do right but not right now

Baby You've Been On My Mind - Jeff Buckley (version) 

Perhaps it's the color of the sun cut flat,
uncoverin' the crossroads I am standin' at,
or maybe it's the weather or somethin' like that,
But baby you've been on my mind.

I am not asking you to say words like yes or no
please understand me, I've got no place for you to go.
I'm just breathin' to myself pretending not that I don't know,
Baby, you've been on my mind.


Even though my mind is hazy and my thoughts they might be narrow
where you been, don't bother me or bring me down in sorrow.
It don't even matter to me where you're wakin' up tomorrow,
Baby, you've been on my mind.


When you wake up in the mornin' baby look inside your mirror
you know I won't be next to you, you know I won't be near.
I'd just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear,
As someone who has had you on his mind.

You Keep Me Hanging On - The Supremes 

Set me free why don't you baby
Get out of my life why don't you baby
You really don't want me
You just keep me hanging on
You really don't need me
You just keep me hanging on

Why do you keep coming around
playing with my heart
Why don't you get out of my life
and help me to make a new start
Let me get over you
the way you got over me

Set me free why don't you baby
Get out of my life why don't you baby
You really don't want me child
You just keep me hanging on
You never, never, never needed me
You just keep me hanging on

You said when we broke up
you just wanted to be friends
Tell me, how can we still be friends
when seeing you just breaks my heart again
and there ain't nothing I can do about it

You really don't need me
You just keep me hanging on
You really don't need me baby
You just keep me hanging on

Set me free why don't you baby
Set me free why don't you baby
Get out of my life why don't you honey
You just keep me hanging on

Wedding Bell Blues by Laura Nyro 

Bill, I love you so, I always will. I look at you and you see the passion eyes of May.
Oh, but am I ever gonna see my wedding day? (Wedding day)
Oh, I was on your side, Bill, when you were losing.
I'd never scheme or lie, Bill, there's been no fooling.
But kisses and love won't carry me till you marry me, Bill.

I love you so, I always will, and in your voice I hear a choir of carousels.
Oh, but am I ever gonna hear my wedding bells? (Wedding bells)
I was the one came running when you were lonely. I haven't lived one day not loving you only.
But kisses and love won't carry me till you marry me, Bill, I love you so, I always will.

And though devotion rules my heart, I take no bows,
Oh but, Bill, you’re never gonna take my wedding vows. (Wedding vows)
Come on, Bill (come on, Bill) so come on, Bill (come on, Bill).
Come on and marry me, Bill, I love you so, I always will.
Come on, I got the wedding blues, yeah, the wedding bell blues.
Come on and marry me, Bill, I love you so, I always will. I wanna marry you, Bill

Last Night Sleep by Can 

Dreams seen by a man-made machine

How does it seem, how does it seem

That we can see each others dreams

That we can see each others dreams

(Last night sleep, only to the beat)

She hold green onions in her hand

She listens to the sound of the band

A bed of green spam grows in her head

Talking to the rising sun

Yes she's talking to the rising sun

(Oh papa-papa there, yeah yeah papa-papa cares)

(Oh moma-moma there, yeah yeah moma-moma cares)

Blagged! by Peter Sarstedt 

And as I blagged a cigarette from her
And gazed upon her nakedness
She moved her lovely head from side to side
And said, I was just like the rest

"You got what you came for," she said.
"And that's what you're here for." I said. "Arn't you?"

She pulled a sheet across her body and
Told me to leave the way I came
I gave a rueful grin and found my clothes
And mumbled, "Yes you're all the same."

"I am but a man." I said.
"I do what I can." I said.
"Always, always."

"There's a time for deeds and a time for talking words
But if I said that I loved you
Would all your morals then be pacified
Would the act of love be then more true?"

"Oh, yes, you are smart," she said.
"but where is your heart?" she said
"You better go now."

And as I walked outside and closed the door
I wondered if I'd won or lost
And if the status quo was still in tact
And was it worth the time is cost.

"Always, Yes, I know. Always, always"

Leaning on a lamp post by George Formby 

Lyrics Composed by George Gay

I'm leaning on a lamp, maybe you think, I look a tramp,
Or you may think I'm hanging 'round to steal a motor-car.
But no I'm not a crook, And if you think, that's what I look,
I'll tell you why I'm here, And what my motives are.

(Tempo Change)

I'm leaning on a lamp-post at the corner of the street,
In case a certain little lady comes by.
Oh me, oh my, I hope the little lady comes by.
I don't know if she'll get away, She doesn't always get away,
But anyhow I know that she'll try.
Oh me, oh my, I hope the little lady comes by,
There's no other girl I would wait for, But this one I'd break any date
for,
I won't have to ask what she's late for, She wouldn't have to leave me
flat,
She's not a girl like that.
Oh, she's absolutely wonderful, and marvellous and beautiful.
And anyone can understand why,
I'm leaning on a lamp-post at the corner of the street
In case a certain little lady passes by.

(Tempo change)

I'm leaning on a lamp-post at the corner of the street,
In case a certain little lady comes by.
Oh me, oh my, I hope the little lady goes do do do dah dah dee dee dee.....
I don't know if she'll get away, She doesn't always get away,
But anyhow I know that she'll try.
Oh me, oh my, I hope the little lady comes by,
There's no other girl I would wait for, But this one I'd break any date
for,
I won't have to ask what she's late for, She wouldn't have to leave me
flat,
She's not a girl like that.
Oh, she's absolutely wonderful, and marvellous and beautiful.
And anyone can understand why,
I'm leaning on a lamp-post at the corner of the street
In case a certain little lady passes by.

Good Life - Tony Bennett 

Oh, the good life, full of fun seems to be the ideal
Mm, the good life lets you hide all the sadness you feel
You won't really fall in love for you can't take the chance
So please be honest with yourself, don't try to fake romance

It's the good life to be free and explore the unknown
Like the heartaches when you learn you must face them alone
Please remember I still want you, and in case you wonder why
Well, just wake up, kiss the good life goodbye

Jenny- lyrics by Cammie 

Jenny, Jenny
girl with skin the color of copper pennies
I asked her what she do
she says she paints volcanoes
it's true

Oh, Jenny how do they blow?
Cus I don't know
I ain't like no volcano

I'm like a dragon
with a belly of fire
i smoke at the nose
there's a furnace in me
I'm like a mythical creature
nobody believes or sees or knows

Jenny, Jenny
girl with skin the color of copper pennies
I asked her what she do
she says she paints volcanoes
it's trues

Oh Jenny, how do they blow
I don't know
I aint like no volcano
I aint like something that's dormant and cold

How do they blow
I wouldn't know
I aint like

Thank you for telling me
at the garden cliffs
in the clean sunlight
about your canvass and paints
you made me think
a woman could be so simple
you made me think

I aint like

The Rapture - The Jam  

is what you reap what you sow?

Iggy Pop - The Passenger Lyrics  

I am a passenger
And I ride and I ride
I ride through the city's backside
I see the stars come out of the sky
Yeah, they're bright in a hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight

I am a passenger
I stay under glass
I look through my window so bright
I see the stars come out tonight
I see the bright and hollow sky
Over the city's a rip in the sky
And everything looks good tonight

Singin' la la la la la-la-la la
La la la la la-la-la la
La la la la la-la-la la la-la

Get into the car
We'll be the passenger
We'll ride through the city tonight
See the city's ripped insides
We'll see the bright and hollow sky
We'll see the stars that shine so bright
The sky was made for us tonight

Oh the passenger
How how he rides
Oh the passenger
He rides and he rides
He looks through his window
What does he see?
He sees the sided hollow sky
He see the stars come out tonight
He sees the city's ripped backsides
He sees the winding ocean drive
And everything was made for you and me
All of it was made for you and me
'cause it just belongs to you and me
So let's take a ride and see what's mine

Singing...

Oh, the passenger
He rides and he rides
He sees things from under glass
He looks through his window's eye
He sees the things he knows are his
He sees the bright and hollow sky
He sees the city asleep at night
He sees the stars are out tonight
And all of it is yours and mine
And all of it is yours and mine
Oh, let's ride and ride and ride and ride...

Johnny Cash - Hurt Lyrics 

 

Album: American IV: The Man Comes Around



I hurt myself today

To see if I still feel

I focus on the pain

The only thing that's real

The needle tears a hole

The old familiar sting

Try to kill it all away

But I remember everything



What have I become?

My sweetest friend

Everyone I know

Goes away in the end

You could have it all

My empire of dirt

I will let you down

I will make you hurt



I wear this crown of thorns

Upon my liar's chair

Full of broken thoughts

I cannot repair

Beneath the stain of time

The feeling disappears

You are someone else

I am still right here



What have I become?

My sweetest friend

Everyone I know

Goes away in the end

You could have it all

My empire of dirt

I will let you down

I will make you hurt



If I could start again

A million miles away

I would keep myself

I would find a way

LEAVE ME ALONE (RUBY RED DRESS) by Helen Reddy 

Words and music by Linda Laurie

Big ole ruby red dress wanders round the town
Talkin to herself now, sometimes sitten down
Don't you get too close now, ruby runs away
Poor ole ruby red dress born on a sorry day
I can hear her say

Leave me alone, won't you leave me alone
Please leave me alone now, leave me alone
Leave me alone, please leave me alone, yes leave me
Leave me alone won't you leave me alone
Please leave me alone, no leave me alone
Leave me along, just leave me alone, oh leave me

Big ole ruby red dress, everybody laughs
Say she's got no future and never made no past
Something hurt that ruby, shomething she can't bear
Ya look at her real close now, you see a little tear
When she says now

Leave me alone, won't you leave me alone
Please leave me alone now, leave me alone
Leave me alone, please leave me alone, yes leave me
Leave me alone won't you leave me alone
Please leave me alone, no leave me alone
Leave me along, just leave me alone, oh leave me

Some folks say some farm boy up from Tennessee
Taught it all to Ruby, then just let her be
Her daddy tried to hide it, tried to keep things cool
But something happened to Ruby, she broke down to a fool
who just said now

All I Want by Joni Mitchell 

I am on a lonely road and I am traveling
Traveling, traveling, traveling
Looking for something, what can it be
Oh I hate you some, I hate you some
I love you some
Oh I love you when I forget about me
I want to be strong I want to laugh along
I want to belong to the living
Alive, alive, I want to get up and jive
I want to wreck my stockings in some juke box dive
Do you want - do you want - do you want
To dance with me baby
Do you want to take a chance
On maybe finding some sweet romance with me baby
Well, come on

All I really really want our love to do
Is to bring out the best in me and in you too
All I really really want our love to do
Is to bring out the best in me and in you
I want to talk to you, I want to shampoo you
I want to renew you again and again
Applause, applause - life is our cause
When I think of your kisses
My mind see-saws
Do you see - do you see - do you see
How you hurt me baby
So I hurt you too
Then we both get so blue

I am on a lonely road and I am traveling
Looking for the key to set me free
Oh the jealousy, the greed is the unraveling
It's the unraveling
And it undoes all the joy that could be
I want to have fun, I want to shine like the sun
I want to be the one that you want to see
I want to knit you a sweater
Want to write you a love letter
I want to make you feel better
I want to make you feel free
Hmm, Hmm, Hmm, Hmm,
Want to make you feel free
I want to make you feel free

Who Am I by Fred Engelberg 

Hi my name is Fred Englberg
when I want it to be
sometime I feel like Salvador Seeker
who seeks the world’s bright light
in the world’s darkness
generally trips on a rock called Ego,
falls head first into a bottomless pit marked
“Enter all ‘ye here who would know illusion from reality”
de dah de de de de...
or I may become Jason Complacent,
he’s the fat man who lived in contentment and peace
next door to a graveyard
he was born there, he lived there and when he died there
they just buried him next door
but they shipped his fortunate furniture
to a distant cousin in Johannesburg, South Africa
Or maybe I’d turn into Bartholomew Bitter
who was born with a sigh, learned how to cry
and forever followed the tear in his eye...
then, on the cloudy rebellious mornings I might turn into
Matthew Muscle,
whose answer to the confusing hustle and bustle of the
human race
is thirty five push-ups and a punch in the face,
any face, any place
or perhaps; with a little effort...
Sylvester Sedation;
he’s a new face in the nation
who when peyote and pot were being legally sold
got himself arrested for smoking dried cranberries
rolled in parking tickets 3 years old...
But between who I am, who I would be, who I can,
who I could be
somewhere in that gray neighborhood, misty
that’s who I am.
Who are you?

Margerine Melodie by Stereolab 

When two people have a project
they begin a competition
In which there will be a winner and a loser
State of dominance over one or the other

This dominance is integral to
all human's ways and actions
The necessity to keep at disposition
An object or being desired by another

Knowing through training that he wants to keep it
Learning everyday, he will have to dominate

Our brain makes us act
behave and react
A pulsion that drives us to stay alive

Need to satisfy our fundamental needs
The nervous system enables that drive

Through consumerism, escape and struggle
As well as inhibition

All these mechanisms that preserve balance
Biological well being

Seems that until now we have used our brain
Just to dominate, just to dominate

Knowing through training that he wants to keep it
Learning everyday, he will have to dominate
When two people have a project
they begin a competition

We've to widen the knowledge of
how our brain works to understand
Or nothing will, will ever change
(?)Will to an end

Give birth without seizing
Act and except nothing
They flower let them free
Unite with the dust and be

Give birth without seizing
Act and except nothing
They flower let them free
Unite with the dust and be.

We Can Fly by the Do-Ri-Mi Children’s Choir 

See how the puffy clouds move by us
See how the morning mist can hide us away
And the day is so much fun, what fun!
Isn’t it groovy, in a day dream?
Doesn’t the day seem like it could never end?
And so my friend we're warm
Maybe its funny
How I can feel so sunny
When you’re flying
We can fly

Hey, Mr. Wind just keep us sailing
High in the sky there’s no curtailing our fun
So everyone come on!
Hey you on the ground
Take a look up, see what we found
Nothing can tie us
Blue birds come up to fly by us
When you’re flying
We can fly
Oh, we can fly!
Everyone on the ground let’s fly
We can fly!
Hey!

Cloudy by Lindy Michaels 

Cloudy, the sky is gray and white and cloudy
Sometime I think it’s hanging down on me
Let’s hitch hike a 100 miles (hitch hike a 100 miles)
All ragamuffin childs
Pointed finger-painted smiles
I left my shadow waiting down the road for me awhile

Cloudy, cloudy
My thoughts are scattered and they're cloudy
They have no borders, no boundaries
They echo and they swell from Tolstoy to Tinkerbell
Down from Berkeley to Carmel
Got some pictures in my pocket
And a lot of time to kill

Hey, sunshine (sunshine) I haven’t seen you for a long time (long)
Why don’t you show your face and bend my mind
These clouds stick to the sky
Like a floating western wind
And they linger they to die
They don’t know where they are going
And my friend neither do I

Hey, sunshine (sunshine) I haven’t seen you in a long time
Why don’t you show your face and bend my mind
These clouds stick to the sky (clouds stick to the sky)
Like floating western wind
And they linger there to die
They don’t know where they are going
And my friend neither do I
(Coudy) cloudy

Here I Am (Take Me) by the Sweet Inspirations 

I may not be able to give you
All you deserve to have
But I’m willing to do with out
And ask nothing for myself
That’s why I sing
Here me baby when I say
I’m telling you
Here I am (take me)
I never wanted anything
Not the way that I want you
So if I’m being a fool, a fool, a fool
That’s just what I’ll have to do
Yeah, that’s what I say
Here me baby when I say
Here I am (take me)
I never wanted anything
Not the way that I want you
So now if I’m being a fool, a fool, a fool
That’s just what I’ll have to do
Yeah, that’s what I say
Listen baby that’s what I say
Here I am (take me)
For a poor girl with nothin’
You wonder what I have to give
Sometimes nothin’ can be everything
When you’ve got a reason to live
I just want to be that reason
For everything that’s good
Cuz’ you know you can make me
Do the things I never thought I would
Well, I’m gonna say, hear me when I say
I’m telling you hear I am I want you to take me
Hear I am I want you to take me
Hear I am I want you to take me
Hear I am I want you to take me

Dominoes by Donald Byrd 

Pretty baby dry your eyes
Don’t cha know it can’t be that bad
How it hurts me pretty baby
When I see you sittin’ there so sad

Don’t need to worry ‘bout tomorrow
Isn’t the day gone?
So raise your chin up darlin’
We will work the fellows out one by one

Hold me tight (hold me tight)
Don’t let me go
Turn me loose, heaven no, no, no

We’ll stand our problems all in a row
And watch them fall like dominoes
Dominoes

Pretty baby dry your eyes
Don’t cha know it can’t be that bad
How it hurts me pretty baby
When I see you sittin’ there so sad

But they will make the same mistake
Everythings all right
So let’s not worry about tomorrow
While we’ve got each other here tonight

Hold me tight (hold me tight)
Don’t let me go
Turn me loose, heaven no, no, no

We’ll stand our problems all in a row
And watch them fall like dominoes
Dominoes

Fallin’ like dominoes
Dominoes
Fallin’ like dominoes
Dominoes

Is You or Is You Ain’t My Baby by Dinah Washington 

I’ve got a man who is always late
Anytime we have a date
But I love him, yes I love him
I’m gon’ walk up to his gate
And see if I can get this thing straight
Cuz’ I want him

Say is you is or is you ain’t my baby
They way you actin’ lately makes me doubt
If you still my baby, baby
Guess my baby found someone new

I’ve got a man who is always late

And see if I can get this thing straight

Say is you is or is you ain’t my baby
The way you actin’ lately makes me doubt
If you still my baby, baby
Guess my babys found someone new

Is you is or is you ain’t my baby
Maybe babys found somebody new
Or is my baby still my baby true

Now is you is or is you ain’t my baby
Maybe babys found somebody new
Or is my baby still my baby true
I guess my babys found somebody new

And I better get right up and go and find me somebody too
I said I’m gonna find me somebody too

Three by the Wedding Present off of Hit Parade 

Yes I want to
I'm down here on my knees
Well why can't you
Just think about it please?

I'm yours
She's mine
Two's company
But three have a better time
We've got a mountain to climb

You're so right
We get what we deserve
And that's just why
You've got to have some nerve

I'm yours
She's mine
Two's company
But three have a better time
No it isn't a crime

There's no hurry
We can make this slow
And don't worry
No one has to know

I'm yours
She's mine
Two's company
But three have a better time
We've got a mountain to climb
We're going to have a good time
And it isn't a crime

AUGUSTA, ANGÉLICA E CONSOLAÇÃO  

AUGUSTA, ANGÉLICA E CONSOLAÇÃO
AUGUSTA, ANGÉLICA AND CONSOLATION
Tom Zé

Augusta, thank God, thank God
Between you and Angélica
I found consolation
Who came to look out for me
and give me a hand

Augusta (how I miss you)
You were vain (how I miss you)
And you spent my money (how I miss you)
On imported clothes and other foolish things
Angélica (how wicked)
You never cared about me (how wicked)
You even wore the clothes (how wicked)
Smelling like a Doctor’s office
Angélica

Augusta, thank God

When I saw
That the Plaza of the Afflicted
Wasn’t wide enough
To hold my affliction
I went to live at the Staion of Light
Because everything was dark
Inside my heart

Augusta, graças a Deus, graças a Deus
Entre você e a Angélica
Eu encontrei a Consolação
Que veio olhar por mim e me deu a mão

Augusta, que saudade
Você era vaidosa, que saudade
E gaastava o meu dinheiro, que saudade
Com roupas importadas e outras bobagens
Angélica, que maldade
Você sempre me deu bolo, que maldade,
E até andava com a roupa, que maldade,
Cheirando a consultório médico,
Angélica,

Augusta, graças a Deus...

Quando eu vi
Que o Largo dos Aflitos
Não era bastante largo
Pra caber minha alição,
Fui morar na Estação da Luz,
Porque estava tudo escuro
Dentro do meu coração

"Lay Lady Lay" original lyrics by Bob Dylan. Cover by Magnet 

Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
Whatever colors you have in your mind
I'll show them to you and you'll see them shine

Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile
Until the break of day, let me see you make him smile
His clothes are dirty but his hands are clean
And you're the best thing that he's ever seen

Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile
Why wait any longer for the world to begin
You can have your cake and eat it too
Why wait any longer for the one you love
When he's standing in front of you

Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead
I long to see you in the morning light
I long to reach for you in the night
Stay, lady, stay, stay while the night is still ahead

Baby - (em Inglês) Caetano Veloso - Versão: Mutantes 

You know, you must take a look at the new land
The swimming pool and the teeth of your friend
The dirt in my land
You know, you must take a look at me

Baby, baby
I know that's the way

You know, you must try the new ice-crem flavour
Do me a favour, look at me closer
Join us and go far
And hear the new sound of my bossa nova

Baby, baby
It's been a long time

You know, it's time now to learn Portuguese
It's time now to learn what I know
And what I don't know
And what I don't know
And what I don't know

I know, with me everything is fine
It's time now to make up your mind
We live in the biggest city of South America
Of South America
Of South America

Look here read what I wrote on my shirt
Baby, baby
I love you

You do!

"Cold Hearts" by Club 8 

take away the pride
and leave your old ideas
cause you won't use them

stand up straight for those
who keep you clean
cause they're the ones who need you

i'll go on my own here
still there's too much undone

cold hearts
it's leaving time
it takes too much from you to make it right
cold hearts
drift away
when distance grows too big
we'll have to part

step into the line
you said that you would hate
that we'd refuse to
with your eyes closed
you will take advice
from those who'll only use you

i'll go on my own here
still there's too much undone

cold hearts
it's leaving time
it takes too much from you to make it right
cold hearts
drift away
when distance grows too big
we'll have to part

Ban Marriage by the Hidden Cameras 

I was late getting to church on the morning of my ceremony

Stayed up too late the night before from fingering foreign dirty holes in the dark.
The morning sun blinded my eyes and made my skin look pale and tainted in the light

And there were steps to climb as I unloosened my tie
As I began to walk the aisle the congregation looked behind

But I continued past the pews and met my angel in a suit with a smile

And as I looked him in the eye I heard my bestfriend cry
That we aren’t fools to fall in love but let the ‘coupledom’ die

Ban marriage, ban marriage

The minister was drunk and high from his rewrite of holly verse with more lies
But the organist she played with a tenacity and grace that was fine

Thh whole room was filled with the thunder and flood
Of just one chord; the thrill and clarity of sound

But soon the song went slowly dead and I was forced to take a stand on one side; it wa shim or my fag hag, oh well, I guess she was never that good of a friend

After my fag hag friend fled the minister looked mighty fed and content

We said his rewritten vows that I could hardly pronounce
But was soon drowned out by that organ and the shout of

Ban Marriage, Ban Marriage, Ban Marriage, Ban Marriage

The congregation, stunned and dumbed, looked upon me with an innocuous stare I wept and on my knees I prayed that there be truth and there be light in my day
In my hung over haze I felt the thunder of God
It was the orders that I take the wrath upon my own rod

Then I repeated my own vows, they were perverted and the smelle dof myself

That there is splendour in the harshness of bum
That the consummation makes a grumble and the sound that I have learned called:

Ban marriage, Ban marriage, Ban amarriage, Ban marriage,
Ban marriage, Ban it all!

From the album 'Out Of Season' [3:41]
------------------------------------------------------------------------

LYRICS:

How can I forget your tender smile
Moments that I have shared with you
Our hearts may break but they're on their way
And there's nothing
I can do

So do what you gotta do
Don't misunderstand me
You know you don't ever have to worry 'bout me
I'd do it again

I can understand that it can't be
Guess it's hard as you were meant for me
But I can't hide
My own despair
I guess I never will

Just do what you gotta do
And don't misunderstand me
You know you don't ever have to worry 'bout me
I'd do it again

So tired of life
No fairytale
So hold your fire
Cos I need you

So do what you gotta do
And don't misunderstand me
You know you don't ever have to worry 'bout me
I'd do it again

Do what you're gotta do
And don't misunderstand me
You keep going over every word that we've said
But you don't have to
Worry about me

Beside You by Van Morrison 

Little Jimmy's gone
Way out of the backstreet
Out of the window
Through the fallin' rain
Right on time
Right on time
That's why Broken Arrow
Waved his finger down the road so dark and narrow
In the evenin'
Just before the Sunday six-bells chime, six-bells chime
And all the dogs are barkin'
Way on down the diamond-studded highway where you wander
And you roam from your retreat and view
Way over on the railroad
Tomorrow all the tippin' trucks will unload
Every scrapbook stuck will glue
And I'll stand beside you
Beside you child
To never never never wonder why at all
No no no no no no no no
To never never wonder why at all
To never never never wonder why it's gotta be
It has to be
Way across the country where the hillside mountain glide
The dynamo of your smile caressed the barefoot virgin child to wander
Past your window with a lantern lit
You held it in the doorway and you cast against the pointed island breeze
Said your time was open, go well on your merry way
Past the brazen footsteps of the silence easy
You breathe in you breathe out you breathe in you breathe out you breath in
you breathe out you breathe in you breathe out
And you're high on your high-flyin' cloud
Wrapped up in your magic shroud as ecstasy surrounds you
This time it's found you
You turn around you turn around you turn around you turn around
And I'm beside you
Beside you
Oh darlin'
To never never wonder why at all
No no no no no
To never never never wonder why at all
To never never never wonder why it's gotta be
It has to be
And I'm beside you
Beside you
Oh child
To never never wonder why at all
I'm beside you
Beside you
Beside you
Beside you
Oh child

Let it Be Me by Roberta Flack or Nina Simone 

I bless the day I found you,
I want to stay around you
and so I beg you, let it be me.

Don't take this heaven from one,
if you must cling to someone
now and forever, let it be me.

Each time we meet, love,
I find complete love.
Without your sweet love
what would life be?

So never leave me lonely,
tell me you'll love me only
and that you'll always let it be me.

If for each bit of gladness
someone must taste of sadness
I'll bear the sorrow, let it be me.

No matter what the price is
I'll make no sacrifices.
Through each tomorrow let it be me.

To you I'm praying,
hear what I'm saying.
Please, let your heart beat
for me, just me.

And never leave me lonely,
tell me you'll love me only
and that you'll always let it be me,
let it be me.

Rose I Love You by Greenfields of Foreverland 

Around the world
There's millions like you
Right under our feet
How should you compete?

There's pictures to show
The big brains who know
And newspapers tell
Of fashion and wealth

Around the world
I love you the same
It's not for your looks
It's not for your name

The thorns won't help
To me you're unique
The tigers will go
The tigers are weak

Around the world
Before we were tamed
We were very small
But now we stand tall

CELA OBSCURCIT L'OBJET DE DESIR (1977) par Luis Bunuel 

Merci M. Bunuel pour faire ce film. Il restera un rappel constant me de ce que désire est. Les hommes sont si bêtes dans leur désir pour une femme. Nous la femme doit les taquiner pour rester leur objet de désir. J'adore aussi que le Conchinta de caractère a été lancé par un sophistiqué et une femme terrestre. Les hommes désire et pour une femme pour pouvoir donner tant de de s'a du succès dans l'idylle d'annonce d'amour. La folie est empathiquement créée aussi. Merci.

Angel flying too close to the ground 

If you would not have fallen
Then I would not have found you
Angel flying too close to the ground

And I patched up your broken wings
And hung around for a while
Trying to keep your spirits up
And your fever down

And I knew someday that you would fly away
For love's the greatest healer to be found

So leave me if you need to
I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground

Fly on, fly on Past the speed of sound
I'd rather see you up
Than see you down

So leave me if you need to
I will still remember
Angel flying too close to the ground

Sunday Girl - Blondie 

I know a girl from a lonely street
Cold as ice cream, but still as sweet
Dry your eyes, Sunday girl
Hey, I saw your guy with a different girl
Looks like he's in another world
Run and hide, Sunday girl

Hurry up, hurry up and wait
I stay away all week and still I wait
I got the blues, please come see
What your loving means to me

She can't catch up with the working crowd
The weekend mood and she's feeling proud
Live in dreams, Sunday girl

"Baby, I would like to go out tonight
If I go with you my folks'll get uptight"
Stay at home, Sunday girl
Oooh oooh oooh

He, j'ai vu ton mec avec une autre fille
Il semblait dans un autre monde
Cours te cacher Sunday girl

Quand je t'ai revu l'e te j'ai de cide
Si ton amour e tait pareil au mien
Je pourrais e tre Sunday girl

De pe che - toi, de pe che - toi et attends
Toute la semaine absent et pourtant j'attends
J'ai le cafard, je t'en prie viens voir
Ce que ton amour repre sente pour moi
He, j'ai vu ton mec avec une autre fille
Il semblait dans un autre monde
Cours te cacher Sunday girl

I got the blues

Car - Catherine Wheel 

If i touch you will you break,
If i touch you will you take,
My fears away, my fears away.
I can hardly wait for you.
I can't hear the moving mind.
I've been sitting here for years to find.
Steal myself a car, Ferrari or a Jaguar,
Drive it a crazy speed,
Straight over a cliff and into the sea.
I can hardly wait for you.
I can't hear the moving mind.
I've been sitting here for years, to find
I've been sitting here for years, to find such big thoughts.
I'll steal myself a car,
Ferrari or a Jaguar,
Drive it at a crazy speed,
Straight over the cliff and into the sea.

Maybe i'll be happy, Maybe i'll be happy,
If that was guaranteed , I'd do it today,
right now, just this once.
Today.

10,000 Maniacs - Like The Weather 

=================================


The color of the sky as far as I can see is coal grey.
Lift my head from the pillow and then fall again. With a shiver
in my bones just thinking about the weather. A quiver in my lips
as if I might cry. Well by the force of will my lungs are filled
and so I breathe. Lately it seems this big bed is where I never
leave. Shiver in my bones just thinking about the weather.
Quiver in my voice as I cry, "What a cold and rainy day. Where on
earth is the sun hid away." I hear the sound of a noon bell chime.
Now I'm far behind. You've put in 'bout half a day while here I
lie with a shiver in my bones just thinking about the weather. A
quiver in my lip as if I might cry, "What a cold and rainy day.
Where on earth is the sun hid away?"
Do I need someone here to scold me or do I need someone
who'll grab and pull me out of this four poster dull torpor
pulling downward. For it is such a long time since my better
days. I say my prayers nightly this will pass away.
The color of the sky is grey as I can see through the
blinds. Lift my head from the pillow and then fall again with a
shiver in my bones just thinking about the weather. A quiver in
my voice as I cry, "What a cold and rainy day. Where on earth is
the sun hid away?" I shiver, quiver, and try to wake.

Song of Songs 2:1-7 

Song of Songs 2:1-7
I am a flower of Sharon
a lily of the valley.
As a lily among thorns,
so is my beloved among women.

As an apple tree among the trees of the
woods,
so is my lover among men.
I delight to rest in his shadow,
and his fruit is sweet to my mouth.
He brings me into the banquet hall
and his emblem over me is love.
Strengthen me with raison cakes,
refresh me with apples,
for I am faint with love.
His left hand is under my head
and his right arm embraces me.
I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem,
by the gazelles and hides of the
field.
Do not arouse, do not stir up love
before its own time.

songs for a hot country summer 

by Bonnie 'Prince' Billie
from ease down the road album

At Break of Day I know the sun's about to come up/I close my eyes anyway/my
mouth is dry and the sheets are cold/and will be still come break of day//you called me up
just to surprise me/to hear my voice. see what I'd say/I only whispered, and then hung
up/whispered "wait till break of day"//at break of day/I'm ending all of it/and so don't
say/you've had a ball/dawn is mine, but I will share it/with whatever bird will wear it/on
her body bare and pink/ now what do you think of break of day//I locked my door, I
should unlock it/what if you should come this way/ and in and have a drink and
dancing/dancing till the break of day//and then to bed we'd dance towards/and tiredly
kiss and roll in hay/but waking in the evening I see/you left after break of day//at break
of day/I'm ending all of it/and so don't say/you've had a ball/dawn is mine, but I will
share it/with whatever bird will wear it/on her body bare and pink/ now what do you
think of break of day//at break of day/I'm ending all of it/and so don't say/you've had a
ball/dawn is mine, but I will share it/with whatever bird will wear it/on her body bare
and pink/ now what do you think of break of day//I hate myself when I'm alone/it's just
with you I feel okay/and tomorrow ill you feel sorrow/when I'm gone at break of
day

A Man Needs a Maid
I was thinking that maybe I'd get a maid
Find a place nearby for her to stay.
Just someone to keep my house clean -
Fix my meals and go away.
A maid - A man needs a maid.

To give a love, you gotta live a love.
To live a love, you gotta be "part of."
When will I see you again.

A while ago somewhere I don't know when
I was watching a movie with a friend.
I fell in love with the actress.
She was playing a part that I could
understand -
A maid. A man needs a maid.

When will I see you again?

Harvest
by Neil Young from the Harvest album

Did I see you down in a young girl's town
With your mother in so much pain?
I was almost there at the top of the stairs
With her screamin' in the rain
Did she wake you up to tell you that
It was only a change of plan?

Did I see you walking with the boys
Though it was not hand in hand?
And was some black face in a lonely place
When you could understand?
Did she wake you up to tell you that
It was only a change of plan?
Dream up. Dream up. Let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man.

Will I see you give more than I can take?
Will I onlyy harvest some?
As the days fly past will we lose our grasp
Or fuse it in the sun?
Did she wake you up to tell you that
It was only a change of plan?
Dream up. Dream up. Let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man.

Out On the Weekend
by Neil Young from Harvest

Think I'll pack it in a buy a pick-up
Take it down to L.A.
Find a place to call my own and try to fix up.
Start a brand new day.

The woman I'm think'n of - she loved me all up
She's so fine she's in my mind. I hear her
callin'.

See the lonely boy, out on the weekend
Tryingg to make it pay.
Can't relate to joy, he tries to speak and
Can't begin to say.

She got pictures on the wall-
They make me look up
From her big brass bed.
Now I'm running down the road trying to stay up
Somewhere in her head.
