I Know You're Out There Somewhere
Moody Blues

I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere somewhere
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you

The mist is lifting slowly
I can see the way ahead
And I've left behind the empty streets
That once inspired my life
And the strength of the emotion
Is like thunder in the air
'Cos the promise that we made each other
Haunts me to the end

CHORUS
I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere
Somewhere you can hear my voice
I know I'll find you somehow
Somehow somehow
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you

The secret of your beauty
And the mystery of your soul
I've been searching for in everyone I meet
And the times I've been mistaken
It's impossible to say
And the grass is growing
Underneath our feet

CHORUS

The words that I remember
From my childhood still are true
That there's none so blind
As those who will not see
And to those who lack the courage
And say it's dangerous to try
Well they just don't know
That love eternal will not be denied

CHORUS

You know it's going to happen
I can feel you getting near
And soon we'll be returning
To the fountains of our youth
And if you wake up wondering
In the darkness I'll be there
My arms will close around you
And protect you with the truth

CHORUS

Breathe by SEven Channels

It's been so long since you've gone away
and I know things will never be the same
I break it all down to it when it's shown to be clear, but
All the while I'm wishing you were here
in my dreams, I can see and feel your face,
but next to me sits an empty space
sometimes life doesn't make any sense to me
I need some time to heal and some space to breathe

I'm Breathing you in, and I'm breathing you out...
Breathing you in, and I'm breathing you out...
I'm Breathing you in, and I'm breathing you out...
I'm Breathing you in...

As I lay on the floor and I wonder why
the question being is why did you die
I thank god for you and the memories
but I still wish you were here with me

I'm Breathing you in, and I'm breathing you out...
Breathing you in, and I'm breathing you out...
I'm Breathing you in, and I'm breathing you out...
I'm Breathing you in...

Gone away and I pray for the strength to, the strength to carry on
Cause I'm breathing you in and I'm breathing you out
I still feel you though you're gone

I'm Breathing you in, and I'm breathing you out...
Breathing you in, and I'm breathing you out...
I'm Breathing you in, and I'm breathing you out...
Breathing you in... yeah..

THE STORY OF MY LIFE
Herman's Hermits

Someday I'm going to write
The story of my life
I'll tell about the night we met
And how my heart can't forget
The way you smiled at me

I want the world to know
The story of my life
About the night your lips met mine
And that first exciting time
I held you close to me

The sorrow in our love was breakin' up
The mem'ry of a broken heart
But later on, the joy of makin' up
Never never more to part

There's one thing left to do
Before my story's through
I've got to take you for my wife
So the story of my life
Can start and end with you

The sorrow in our love was breakin' up
The mem'ry of a broken heart
But later on, the joy of makin' up
Never never more to part

There's one thing left to do
Before my story's through
I've got to take you for my wife
So the story of my life
Can start and end
Can start and end
Can start and end with you

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

a couple by jim croce....wish he was still here to write us songs

Time In A Bottle


If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day
Till eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you

If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then
Again I would spend them with you

(CHORUS)
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with

If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that'd never come true
The box would be empty
Except for the memory of how
They were answered by you

===========================
Photographs And Memories

Photographs and memories, Christmas cards you sent to me
All that I have are these to remember you
Memories that come at night, take me to another time
Back to a happier day
When I called you mine

But we sure had a good time, when we started way back when
Morning walks and bedroom talks are how I loved you then

Summer skies and lullaby's, nights we couldn't say goodbye
And of all of the things that we knew
Not a dream survived

Photographs and memories, all the love you gave to me
Some how it just can't be true
Thats all I've left of you

But we sure had a good time, when we started way back when
Morning walks and bedroom talks are how I loved you then


==============================
and one thats not a love song
but a song of peace from the time of flower children



Which Way Are You Goin

Which way are you going, which side will you be on
Will you stand and watch while, all the seeds of hate are sown
Will you stand with those who say, let his will be done
One hand on the bible
One hand on the gun
One hand on the bible
One hand on the gun

Which way are you looking, is it hard to see
Do you say whats wrong for him, is not wrong for me
You walk the streets, righteousness but you refuse to understand
You say you love the baby
Then you crucify the man
You say you love the baby
Then you crucify the man

Everyday, things are changing, words once honored turned to lies
People wondering, can you blame them
Its to far to run, and to late to hide

Now you turn your back on, all the things that you used to preach
Now its let him live in freedom, if he lives like me
Well you light has changed, confusion rains, what have you become
All your olive branches turned to spears
When your flowers turned to guns
Your olive branches turned to spears
When your flowers turned to guns

This one's probably been posted already, but I just heard it yesterday and it moved me tremendously... it's probably the best song on the radio right now.

Superman (It's Not Easy)
Five for Fighting

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naïve
I'm just out to find
The better part of me

I'm more than a bird
I'm more than a plane
I'm more than some pretty face beside a train
And it's not easy to be me

I wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
And find a way to lie
'Bout a home I'll never see

It may sound absurd
But don't be naïve
Even heroes have the right to bleed
I may sound disturbed
But won't you concede
Even heroes have the right to dream
And it's not easy to be me

Up, up and away
Away from here
Well it's all right
You can all sleep sound tonight
I'm not crazy or anything

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naïve
Men weren't meant to ride
With clouds between their knees

I'm only a man
In a silly red sheet
Looking for kryptonite on this one-way street
I'm only a man
In a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me

Inside of me
Inside of me
Inside of me
Inside of me

I'm only a man
In a funny red sheet
I'm only a man looking for a dream
I'm only a man
In a funny red sheet
And it's not easy... oooh, oooh, oooh
It's not easy to be me

And here's one that provides interesting counterpoint:

How You Remind Me
Nickelback

I never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing
I'm tired of living like a blind man
I'm sick of sight without a sense of feeling
This is how you remind me

This is how you remind me of what I really am
This is how you remind me of what I really am

CHORUS:
It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
For handing you a heart worth breaking
I've been wrong
I've been down
To the bottom of every bottle
These five words in my head
Scream "Are we having fun yet?"

It's not like you didn't know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
It must have been so bad
'Cause living with me must have damn near killed you

And this is how you remind me of what I really am
This is how you remind me of what I really am

CHORUS

I never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me

This is how you remind me of what I really am
This is how you remind me of what I really am

CHORUS

Are we having fun yet?
Are we having fun yet?
Are we having fun yet?...

Rock A Little (Go Ahead Lily)
Stevie Nicks

Sometimes it rages... rock a little
Even when it's calm... still rock a little
Just like the sea... I rock a little
Say it was just like me
Still rock a little

Then you knew her... funny little dancer
And you watched her all night long
You were trying to learn from her teachers
One thing that she wanted
She would not be tangled up... in it

Hit it,
It's about time, lily
Oh, I know lily
Rock a little
Hit the stage... Hit the stage
Rock a little

She's home now;
She says I've gone far beyond that song
She says rock and roll ballerina
Where else would she go?
He knows his daughter, says
Where does she live?
He says, Oh, up there somewhere

Then he says, Go ahead, lily
Hit it,
Hit the stage, dancin'... go on
Hit it... Well, I know lily
It's about time, lily
Hit it

Well, I know lily
It's about time, lily
Hit it
Hit the stage
Hit it

Hit it, lily
It's about time, lily
Hit it
I know, lily
It's about time, lily
Hit the stage
Hit it, lily

Lots of them
And all one of a kind
But the most important thing was
What was on her mind
Pale... pink... satin... worn out in a week
But you loved you the most
And you said...

Go ahead, lily
Hit it
No explanations and I tell you no
You say... Nothing
That is how songs are written
Stories are told, rumours are started

That is how songs are written
Stories are told, rumours are started

Go ahead, lily
Hit it
It's about time lily
Hit the stage, dancin'
I know, lily
Hit it
Hit the stage

Go ahead, lily
Hit it
It's about time lily
Hit the stage, dancin'
I know, lily
Hit it
Hit the stage

Go ahead, lily
Hit it
It's about time lily
Hit the stage, dancin'
I know, lily
Hit it
Hit the stage

Heard It In a Love Song
Marshall Tucker Band

I ain't never been with a woman long enough
For my boots to get old
But we been together so long now
They both need resoled.
If I ever settled down, you'd be my kind,
So it's a good time for me to head on down the line.

(Chorus)
Heard it in a love song,
Heard it in a love song,
Heard it in a love song ...
Can't be wrong.

I'm the kind of man who likes to get away,
Likes to start dreamin' about tomorrow, today.
Never said that I loved you, even though it's so,
I'll grab this duffel bag of mine, it's time to go.
(chorus and instrumental verse)

I'm gonna be leavin' at the break of dawn,
Wish you could come, but I don't need no woman taggin' along.
Gonna sneak out that door, couldn't stand to see you cry.
I'd stay another year if I saw a teardrop in your eye.
(chorus)

I never had a damn thing, but what I had, I had to leave it behind,
You're the hardest thing I ever tried to get off my mind.
Always somethin' greener on the other side of that hill,
I was born a wrangler and a rambler and I guess I always will.
(chorus)

girl from mars

ASH

do you remember the time I knew a girl from mars?
i don't know if you knew that.
oh we'd stay up late playing cards,
henri winterman cigars.
though she never told me her name,
i still love you, girl from mars.

sitting in our dreamy days by the water's edge,
on a cool summer's night.
fireflies and the stars in the sky,
gentle glowing light,
from your cigarette.
the breeze blowing softly on my face,
reminds me of something else.
something that in my memory has been replaced,
suddenly it all comes back.
and as i look to the stars.

i remember the time i knew a girl from mars,
i don't know if you knew that.
oh we'd stay up late playing cards,
henri winterman cigars.
though she never told me her name,
i still love you, girl from mars.


surging through the darkness over the moonlight strand,
electricity in the air.
twisting all through the night on the terrace,
now that summer's here.
i know you are almost in love with me,
i can see it in your eyes.
strange light shimmering over the sea tonight,
and it almost blows my mind
and as I look to the stars


i remember the time I knew a girl from mars,
i don't know if you knew that.
oh we'd stay up late playing cards,
henri winterman cigars.
though she never told me her name,
I still love you, girl From Mars.


today I sleep in the chair by the window,
it felt as if you'd returned.
i thought that you were standing over me,
when i woke there was no-one there.
i still love you, girl from..mars


do you remember the time I knew a girl from mars?
i don't know if you knew that.
oh we'd stay up late playing cards,
henri winterman cigars.
though she never told me her name.

do you remember the time I knew a girl From mars?
i don't know if you knew that.
oh we'd stay up late playing cards.
henri winterman cigars.
and I still dream of you,
i still love you, girl from mars.

a couple of songs from a country girl


"The Heart Never Forgets"
LEANN RIMES

Went through the attic today,
Found a note you wrote packed away.
And I started reliving the past,
When I saw his face.
Suddenly, to my surprise,
I felt a tear fall from my eyes.
The heart never forgets,
No the heart never forgets.
You can find someone,
And live your life,
Put an old memory out of your mind,
But the heart never forgets.
A face on a crowded street,
An old movie on T.V.,
A song on the radio
Can bring it all back.
Years roll by,
One by one,
All things change,
But there's always someone,
The heart never forgets,
No the heart never forgets.
You can find someone,
And live your life,
Put an old memory out of your mind,
But the heart never forgets.
(musical interlude)
The heart never forgets,
No the heart never forgets.
You can find someone,
And live your life,
Put an old memory out of your mind,
But the heart never forgets.
No the heart never forgets.
Ooh, yeah.

------------------------
"The Rest In History"

Saw you across the room
Felt somethin’ stir inside my soul
Knew I’d never be the same
Now that love had taken hold
Then when you touched me
There was no doubt
You understood what my heart was all about

And the rest is history
The story of you and me
For all eternity
The record will show
We’ll fill up the pages
Romance for the ages
There for the world to see
The rest is history.

Before we spoke a word
My heart told me you were the one
When you pressed your hand to mine
I knew my life had just begun
Like some old movie
Music filled the night
Lost in the passion
We held each other tight.

And the rest is history
The story of you and me
For all eternity
The record will show
We’ll fill up the pages
Romance for the ages
There for the world to see
The rest is history.

And the rest is history
The story of you and me
For all eternity
The record will show
We’ll fill up the pages
Romance for the ages
There for the world to see
The rest is history.

History...
The rest is history.
The rest is history.

Wake Up by Alanis Morissette

You like snow but only if it's warm
You like rain but only if it's dry
No sentimental value to the rose that fell on your floor
No fundamental excuse for the granted I'm taken for

'Cause it's easy not to
So much easier not to
And what goes around never comes around to you

You like pain but only if it doesn't hurt too much
You sit...and you wait...to receive
There's an obvious attraction
To the path of least resistance in your life
There's an obvious aversion no amount of my insistence
could make you try tonight

'Cause it's easy not to
So much easier not to
And what goes around never comes around to you
There's no love no money no thrill any more

There's an apprehensive naked little trembling boy
With his head in his hands
There's an underestimated and impatient little girl
Raising her hands

But it's easy not to
So much easier not to
And what goes around never comes around to you

I saw that video on Vh1, not very good, he must have misplaced his voice or something. The first one he did was much better

These two songs are in english, and spanish, and they kick arse.

Enrique Iglesias - Hero

Would you dance
if I asked you to dance?
Would you run
and never look back?
Would you cry
if you saw me cry?
And would you save my soul, tonight?

Would you tremble
if I touched your lips?
Would you laugh?
Oh please tell me this.
Now would you die
for the one you loved?
Hold me in your arms, tonight.

I can be your hero, baby.
I can kiss away the pain.
I will stand by you forever.
You can take my breath away.

Would you swear
that you'll always be mine?
Or would you lie?
would you run and hide?
Am I in too deep?
Have I lost my mind?
I don't care...
You're here tonight.

I can be your hero, baby.
I can kiss away the pain.
I will stand by you forever.
You can take my breath away.

Oh, I just want to hold you.
I just want to hold you.
Am I in too deep?
Have I lost my mind?
I don't care...
You're here tonight.

I can be your hero, baby.
I can kiss away the pain.
I will stand by your forever.
You can take my breath away.

I can be your hero.
I can kiss away the pain.
And I will stand by you forever.
You can take my breath away.
You can take my breath away.

I can be your hero.


Enrique Iglesias - Heroe

Quiero ser tu heroe

Si una vez yo pudiera llegar
a erizar de frio tu piel
a quemar que se yo, tu boca
y morirme alli despues
Y si entonces
temblaras por mi
lloraras al verme sufrir
ay sin dudar tu vida entera dar
como yo la doy por ti.

Si pudiera ser tu heroe
Si pudiera ser tu Dios
que salvarte a ti mil veces
puede ser mi salvacion.

Si supieras
la locura que llevo
que me hiere
y me mata por dentro
y que mas da
mira que al final
lo que importa es que te quiero

Si pudiera ser tu heroe
Si pudiera ser tu Dios
que salvarte a ti mil veces
puede ser mi salvacion

Ahaa......

dejame tocarte, quiero acariciarte
una vez mas, mira que al final
lo que importa es que te quiero

Si pudiera ser tu heroe
Si pudiera ser tu Dios
que salvarte a ti mil veces
puede ser mi salvacion

Quiero ser tu heroe
si pudiera ser tu Dios
porque salvarte a ti mil veces
puede ser mi salvacion
puede ser mi salvacion

Quiero ser tu heroe....


Shakira - Suerte

Suerte que nosura allas nacido
y que burlemos las distancias
suerte que es haberte conocido
y por ti amar tierras extrañas
Yo puedo escalar los Andres solo
por ir a contar tus lunares
contigo celebro y sufro todo
mis alegrias y mis males

Le ro lo le lo le
le ro lo le lo le
Sabes que estoy a tus pies

Contigo, mi vida
quiereo vivir la vida
y lo que me queda de vida
quiero vivir contigo
Contigo mi vida
quiero vivir la vida
y lo que me queda de vida
quiero vivir contigo

Suerte que es tener labios sinceros
para besarte con mas ganas
Suerte que mis pechos sean pequeños
y nos los confundas con montañas
Suerte que herede las piernas firmes
para correr si un dia hace falta
Y estos dos ojos que te dicen
Que he de llorar cuando te vallas

Le ro lo le lo le
Le ro lo le lo le
Sabes que estoy a tus pies

Le ro lo le lo le
le ro lo le lo le
Sabes que estoy a tus pies

Le ro lo le lo le lo la
La felicidad tiene tu
nombre y tu piel

Contigo, mi vida
quiereo vivir la vida
y lo que me queda de vida
quiero vivir contigo
Ya sabes mi vida
estoy hasta el cuello por ti
Si sientes algo asi
Quiero que te quedes junto a mi.

Contigo, mi vida
quiereo vivir la vida
y lo que me queda de vida
quiero vivir contigo
Ya sabes mi vida
estoy hasta el cuello por ti
Si sientes algo asi
Quiero que te quedes junto a mi.



Shakira - Whenever, Wherever

Lucky you were born that far away so
So we could both make fun of distance
Lucky that I love a foreign land for
The lucky fact of your existence
Baby I would climb the Andes solely
To count the freckles on your body
Never could imagine there were only
Too many ways to love somebody

Lo ro lo le lo le
Lo ro lo le lo le
Can't you see...I'm at your feet

Whenever, wherever
We'll learn to be together
I'll be there and you'll be near
And that's the deal my dear
They're over, you're under
You'll never have to wonder
We can always play by ear
But that's the deal my dear

Lucky that my lips not only mumble
They spill kisses like a fountain
Lucky that my breasts are small and humble
So you don't confuse them with mountains
Lucky I have strong legs like my mother
To run for cover when I need it
And these two eyes are for no other
The day you leave we'll cry a river

Lo ro lo le lo le
Lo ro lo le lo le
At your feet...I'm at your feet

Whenever, Wherever
We're meant to be together
I'll be there and you'll be near
And that's the deal my dear
They're over, you're under
You'll never have to wonder
We can always play by ear
But that's the deal my dear

Lo ro lo le lo le
Lo ro lo le lo le

sink or fly, say it again

Lo ro lo le lo le lo le

Tell me one more time
That you'll live
Lost in my eyes

Whenever, wherever
We'll learn to be together
I'll be there and you'll be near
And that's the deal my dear
They're over, you're under
You've got me head over heels
There's nothing left to fear
If you really feel the way I feel

Whenever, wherever
We're meant to be together
I'll be there and you'll be near
And that's the deal my dear
They're over, you're under
You've got me head over heels
There's nothing left to fear
If you really feel the way I feel

Eagles - Life in the Fast Lane

He was a hard-headed man he was brutally handsome
And she was terminally pretty
She held him up and he held for ransom
In the heart of the cold, cold city
He had a nasty reputation as a cruel dude
They said he was ruthless said he was crude
They had one thing in common: they were good in bed
She'd say, "Faster, faster. "The lights are turning red."

Life in the fast lane Surely make you lose your mind
Life in the fast lane

Eager for action and hot for the game
The comming attraction, the drop of a name
They knew all the right people; They took all the right pills
They threw outrageous parties; They paid heavenly bills
There were lines on the mirror, lines on her face
She pretended not to notice she was caught up in the race
Out every evenin' until it was light
He was too tired to make it; she was too tired to fight about it.

Life in the fast lane surely make you lose your mind
Life in the fast lane
Life in the fast lane everything all the time
Life in the fast lane

Blowin' and burnin' blinded by thirst
They didn't see the stop sign; Took a turn for the worst
She said, "Listen, baby. You can hear the engine ring.
"We've been up and down this highway; haven't seen a god-damn thing."
He said, "Call the doctor. I think I'm gonna crash."
"The doctor say he's coming but you gotta pay in cash."
They were rushing down that freeway; Messed around and got lost
They didn't care they were just dyin' to get off.

And it was life in the fast lane
Surely make you lose your mind
Life in the fast lane
Life in the fast lane everything all the time
Life in the fast lane

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

It's become tradition for the Dallas classic rock station, KZPS, to play this song at noon every Thanksgiving.
It's a story told, for the most part. Very little actual singing.


Alice's Restaurant
By Arlo Guthrie


This song is called Alice's Restaurant, and it's about Alice, and the
restaurant, but Alice's Restaurant is not the name of the restaurant, that's just the name of the song, and that's why I called the song Alice's Restaurant.

You can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant
You can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant
Walk right in it's around the back
Just a half a mile from the railroad track
You can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant

Now it all started two Thanksgivings ago, was on - two years ago on
Thanksgiving, when my friend and I went up to visit Alice at the
restaurant, but Alice doesn't live in the restaurant, she lives in the
church nearby the restaurant, in the bell-tower, with her husband Ray and
Fasha the dog. And livin' in the bell tower like that, they got a lot of
room downstairs where the pews used to be in. Havin' all that room,
seein' as how they took out all the pews, they decided that they didn't
have to take out their garbage for a long time.

We got up there, we found all the garbage in there, and we decided it'd be
a friendly gesture for us to take the garbage down to the city dump. So
we took the half a ton of garbage, put it in the back of a red VW
microbus, took shovels and rakes and implements of destruction and headed
on toward the city dump.

Well we got there and there was a big sign and a chain across across the
dump saying, "Closed on Thanksgiving." And we had never heard of a dump
closed on Thanksgiving before, and with tears in our eyes we drove off
into the sunset looking for another place to put the garbage.

We didn't find one. Until we came to a side road, and off the side of the
side road there was another fifteen foot cliff and at the bottom of the
cliff there was another pile of garbage. And we decided that one big pile
is better than two little piles, and rather than bring that one up we
decided to throw our's down.

That's what we did, and drove back to the church, had a Thanksgiving
dinner that couldn't be beat, went to sleep and didn't get up until the
next morning, when we got a phone call from officer Obie. He said, "Kid,
we found your name on an envelope at the bottom of a half a ton of
garbage, and just wanted to know if you had any information about it." And
I said, "Yes, sir, Officer Obie, I cannot tell a lie, I put that envelope
under that garbage."

After speaking to Obie for about fourty-five minutes on the telephone we
finally arrived at the truth of the matter and said that we had to go down
and pick up the garbage, and also had to go down and speak to him at the
police officer's station. So we got in the red VW microbus with the
shovels and rakes and implements of destruction and headed on toward the
police officer's station.

Now friends, there was only one or two things that Obie coulda done at
the police station, and the first was he could have given us a medal for
being so brave and honest on the telephone, which wasn't very likely, and
we didn't expect it, and the other thing was he could have bawled us out
and told us never to be see driving garbage around the vicinity again,
which is what we expected, but when we got to the police officer's station
there was a third possibility that we hadn't even counted upon, and we was
both immediately arrested. Handcuffed. And I said "Obie, I don't think I
can pick up the garbage with these handcuffs on." He said, "Shut up, kid.
Get in the back of the patrol car."

And that's what we did, sat in the back of the patrol car and drove to the
quote Scene of the Crime unquote. I want tell you about the town of
Stockbridge, Massachusets, where this happened here, they got three stop
signs, two police officers, and one police car, but when we got to the
Scene of the Crime there was five police officers and three police cars,
being the biggest crime of the last fifty years, and everybody wanted to
get in the newspaper story about it. And they was using up all kinds of
cop equipment that they had hanging around the police officer's station.
They was taking plaster tire tracks, foot prints, dog smelling prints, and
they took twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy photographs with circles
and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each
one was to be used as evidence against us. Took pictures of the approach,
the getaway, the northwest corner the southwest corner and that's not to
mention the aerial photography.

After the ordeal, we went back to the jail. Obie said he was going to put
us in the cell. Said, "Kid, I'm going to put you in the cell, I want your
wallet and your belt." And I said, "Obie, I can understand you wanting my
wallet so I don't have any money to spend in the cell, but what do you
want my belt for?" And he said, "Kid, we don't want any hangings." I
said, "Obie, did you think I was going to hang myself for littering?"
Obie said he was making sure, and friends Obie was, cause he took out the
toilet seat so I couldn't hit myself over the head and drown, and he took
out the toilet paper so I couldn't bend the bars roll out the - roll the
toilet paper out the window, slide down the roll and have an escape. Obie
was making sure, and it was about four or five hours later that Alice
(remember Alice? It's a song about Alice), Alice came by and with a few
nasty words to Obie on the side, bailed us out of jail, and we went back
to the church, had a another thanksgiving dinner that couldn't be beat,
and didn't get up until the next morning, when we all had to go to court.

We walked in, sat down, Obie came in with the twenty seven eight-by-ten
colour glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back
of each one, sat down. Man came in said, "All rise." We all stood up,
and Obie stood up with the twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy
pictures, and the judge walked in sat down with a seeing eye dog, and he
sat down, we sat down. Obie looked at the seeing eye dog, and then at the
twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures with circles and arrows
and a paragraph on the back of each one, and looked at the seeing eye dog.
And then at twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures with circles
and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one and began to cry,
'cause Obie came to the realization that it was a typical case of American
blind justice, and there wasn't nothing he could do about it, and the
judge wasn't going to look at the twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy
pictures with the circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each
one explaining what each one was to be used as evidence against us. And
we was fined $50 and had to pick up the garbage in the snow, but thats not
what I came to tell you about.

Came to talk about the draft.

They got a building down New York City, it's called Whitehall Street,
where you walk in, you get injected, inspected, detected, infected,
neglected and selected. I went down to get my physical examination one
day, and I walked in, I sat down, got good and drunk the night before, so
I looked and felt my best when I went in that morning. `Cause I wanted to
look like the all-American kid from New York City, man I wanted, I wanted
to feel like the all-, I wanted to be the all American kid from New York,
and I walked in, sat down, I was hung down, brung down, hung up, and all
kinds o' mean nasty ugly things. And I walked in and sat down and they gave
me a piece of paper, said, "Kid, see the psychiatrist, room 604."

And I went up there, I said, "Shrink, I want to kill. I mean, I wanna, I
wanna kill. Kill. I wanna, I wanna see, I wanna see blood and gore and
guts and veins in my teeth. Eat dead burnt bodies. I mean kill, Kill,
KILL, KILL." And I started jumpin up and down yelling, "KILL, KILL," and
he started jumpin up and down with me and we was both jumping up and down
yelling, "KILL, KILL." And the sargent came over, pinned a medal on me,
sent me down the hall, said, "You're our boy."

Didn't feel too good about it.

Proceeded on down the hall gettin more injections, inspections,
detections, neglections and all kinds of stuff that they was doin' to me
at the thing there, and I was there for two hours, three hours, four
hours, I was there for a long time going through all kinds of mean nasty
ugly things and I was just having a tough time there, and they was
inspecting, injecting every single part of me, and they was leaving no
part untouched. Proceeded through, and when I finally came to the see the
last man, I walked in, walked in sat down after a whole big thing there,
and I walked up and said, "What do you want?" He said, "Kid, we only got
one question. Have you ever been arrested?"

And I proceeded to tell him the story of the Alice's Restaurant Massacre,
with full orchestration and five part harmony and stuff like that and all
the phenome... - and he stopped me right there and said, "Kid, did you ever
go to court?"

And I proceeded to tell him the story of the twenty seven eight-by-ten
colour glossy pictures with the circles and arrows and the paragraph on
the back of each one, and he stopped me right there and said, "Kid, I want
you to go and sit down on that bench that says Group W .... NOW kid!!"

And I, I walked over to the, to the bench there, and there is, Group W's
where they put you if you may not be moral enough to join the army after
committing your special crime, and there was all kinds of mean nasty ugly
looking people on the bench there. Mother rapers. Father stabbers. Father
rapers! Father rapers sitting right there on the bench next to me! And
they was mean and nasty and ugly and horrible crime-type guys sitting on the
bench next to me. And the meanest, ugliest, nastiest one, the meanest
father raper of them all, was coming over to me and he was mean 'n' ugly
'n' nasty 'n' horrible and all kind of things and he sat down next to me
and said, "Kid, whad'ya get?" I said, "I didn't get nothing, I had to pay
$50 and pick up the garbage." He said, "What were you arrested for, kid?"
And I said, "Littering." And they all moved away from me on the bench
there, and the hairy eyeball and all kinds of mean nasty things, till I
said, "And creating a nuisance." And they all came back, shook my hand,
and we had a great time on the bench, talkin about crime, mother stabbing,
father raping, all kinds of groovy things that we was talking about on the
bench. And everything was fine, we was smoking cigarettes and all kinds of
things, until the Sargeant came over, had some paper in his hand, held it
up and said.

"Kids, this-piece-of-paper's-got-47-words-37-sentences-58-words-we-wanna-
know-details-of-the-crime-time-of-the-crime-and-any-other-kind-of-thing-
you-gotta-say-pertaining-to-and-about-the-crime-I-want-to-know-arresting-
officer's-name-and-any-other-kind-of-thing-you-gotta-say", and talked for
forty-five minutes and nobody understood a word that he said, but we had
fun filling out the forms and playing with the pencils on the bench there,
and I filled out the massacre with the four part harmony, and wrote it
down there, just like it was, and everything was fine and I put down the
pencil, and I turned over the piece of paper, and there, there on the
other side, in the middle of the other side, away from everything else on
the other side, in parentheses, capital letters, quotated, read the
following words:

("KID, HAVE YOU REHABILITATED YOURSELF?")

I went over to the sargent, said, "Sargeant, you got a lot a damn gall to
ask me if I've rehabilitated myself, I mean, I mean, I mean that just, I'm
sittin' here on the bench, I mean I'm sittin here on the Group W bench
'cause you want to know if I'm moral enough join the army, burn women,
kids, houses and villages after bein' a litterbug." He looked at me and
said, "Kid, we don't like your kind, and we're gonna send you fingerprints
off to Washington."

And friends, somewhere in Washington enshrined in some little folder, is a
study in black and white of my fingerprints. And the only reason I'm
singing you this song now is cause you may know somebody in a similar
situation, or you may be in a similar situation, and if your in a
situation like that there's only one thing you can do and that's walk into
the shrink wherever you are ,just walk in say "Shrink, You can get
anything you want, at Alice's restaurant.". And walk out. You know, if
one person, just one person does it they may think he's really sick and
they won't take him. And if two people, two people do it, in harmony,
they may think they're both faggots and they won't take either of them.
And three people do it, three, can you imagine, three people walking in
singin a bar of Alice's Restaurant and walking out. They may think it's an
organization. And can you, can you imagine fifty people a day,I said
fifty people a day walking in singin a bar of Alice's Restaurant and
walking out. And friends they may thinks it's a movement.

And that's what it is , the Alice's Restaurant Anti-Massacre Movement, and
all you got to do to join is sing it the next time it come's around on the
guitar.

With feeling. So we'll wait for it to come around on the guitar, here and
sing it when it does. Here it comes.

You can get anything you want, at Alice's Restaurant
You can get anything you want, at Alice's Restaurant
Walk right in it's around the back
Just a half a mile from the railroad track
You can get anything you want, at Alice's Restaurant

That was horrible. If you want to end war and stuff you got to sing loud.
I've been singing this song now for twenty five minutes. I could sing it
for another twenty five minutes. I'm not proud... or tired.

So we'll wait till it comes around again, and this time with four part
harmony and feeling.

We're just waitin' for it to come around is what we're doing.

All right now.

You can get anything you want, at Alice's Restaurant
Excepting Alice
You can get anything you want, at Alice's Restaurant
Walk right in it's around the back
Just a half a mile from the railroad track
You can get anything you want, at Alice's Restaurant

Da da da da da da da dum
At Alice's Restaurant

Higher
-creed


When dreaming I'm guided through another world
Time and time again
At sunrise I fight to stay asleep
'Cause I don't want to leave the comfort of this place
'Cause there's a hunger, a longing to escape
From the life I live when I'm awake
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?
Can you take me higher?
To the place where blind men see
Can you take me higher?
To the place with golden streets
Although I would like our world to change
It helps me to appreciate
Those nights and those dreams
But, my friend, I'd sacrifice all those nights
If I could make the Earth and my dreams the same
The only difference is
To let love replace all our hate
So let's go there
Let's make our escape
Come on, let's go there
Let's ask can we stay?
Up high I feel like I'm alive for the very first time
Up high I'm strong enough to take these dreams
And make them mine

I think I already posted higher. Maybe it was on the other thread I really don't remember, but I did post that and i don't feel like searching this thread for it.

I'm listening to that song right now.

Moving From Thanksgiving Into The Christmas Season Full PM-box? Change here!

I Believe in Father Christmas
Emerson, Lake, and Palmer

They said there'll be snow at Christmas
They said there'll be peace on Earth
But instead it just kept on raining
A veil of tears for the Virgin's birth
I remember one Christmas morning
A winters light and a distant choir
And the peal of a bell and that Christmas Tree smell
And their eyes full of tinsel and fire

They sold me a dream of Christmas
They sold me a Silent Night
And they told me a fairy story
'Till I believed in the Israelite
And I believed in Father Christmas
And I looked at the sky with excited eyes
'Till I woke with a yawn in the first light of dawn
And I saw him and through his disguise

I wish you a hopeful Christmas
I wish you a brave New Year
All anguish pain and sadness
Leave your heart and let your road be clear
They said there'll be snow at Christmas
They said there'll be peace on Earth
Hallelujah Noel be it Heaven or Hell
The Christmas you get you deserve

"Together, Forever, Always"
LEANN RIMES

life can be distance between us
days even years could pass on
but the love that lies between us will
always be worth holdin' on

together forever always
from the dawn til the end
of each day no matter
how far away you are we're
together forever always

i could try to forget you but the
memories keep lingering on
but the dreams i dream about
you keep me holdin on

together forever always
from the dawn til the end
of each day no matter
how far away you are we're
together forever always

together forever always
from the dawn til the end
of each day no matter
how far away you are we're
together forever always
=====================================

"Broken Wing"

Today I watched a robin
In our front yard
I thought by now that they should all be gone.
With winter ‘round the corner
Snow on its way
Surely something must be wrong.
Then in that old oak tree I finally saw her
Where she sat gazing down upon her mate
And the song that she was singing
Seemed to say "I’ll be right here"
"I’d like to go, but your love’s made me stay."
He’s got a broken wing
And that’s why he can’t fly
She just can’t leave him there
So she stays by his side
They’re just like you and me
Oh you should’ve heard her sing
They won’t give up
It’s just a broken wing.
I wish we all could learn
What they seem to have found
To love our families
When trouble comes around
I’ll bet that God saw fit
To show them unto me
Him on the ground
Her in that tree.

"I Know Who Holds Tomorrow"

I don't know about tomorrow,
I just live from day to day.
And I don't borrow from its sunshine
'Cause the skies might turn to grey.
And I don't worry about the future,
'Cause I know what Jesus said,
And today I'm gonna walk right beside him
'Cause he's the one who knows what is ahead.
There are things about tomorrow
That I don't seem to understand
But I know who holds tomorrow
And I know who holds my hand.
And each step is getting brighter
As the golden stairs I climb.
And every burden is getting lighter
And all the clouds are silver lined.
And, over there the sun is always shining
And no tears will ever dim the eye
And the ending of the rainbow
Where the mountains, they touch the sky.
There are many things about tomorrow
I don't seem to understand
But I know who holds tomorrow
And I know who holds my hand.
Yes I know who holds my hand.

I love this song - it always reminds me how beautiful life really is and how we shouldn't take it for granted.

Halo by Texas

Bright light city
You're her religion
Superstars in their own private movie
Play just like children
Lies that take her places she's never seen
The kiss and tell of it all
To her it seems so obscene
She's so pretty, her hair is a mess
We all love her, to that we confess

She has a halo
We really do adore her
She has a halo
Can we touch her?

For all the blindness
She sees much further
Like on the widescreen viewing
Going down on her
She's so pretty, her hair is a mess
We all love her
To that we confess

She has a halo
We really do adore her
For she has a halo
Can we touch her?

Halo
Halo

She varies with every day
She varies in everything in every day

She has a halo
We really do adore her
She has a halo
Can we touch her?


This one I included almost entirely for the humour value - it's fantastic

Chemistry by Semisonic

I remember when I found out about chemistry
It was a long, long way from here
I was old enough to want it but younger than I wanted to be
Suddenly my mission was clear

So for awhile I conducted experiments
And I was amazed by the things I learned
From a fine, fine girl with nothing but good intentions
And a bad tendency to get burned

Oh-oh, all about chemistry
Won't you show me everything you know
Oh-oh, wonder what you do to me
Oh-wo-oh-ohwo-oh

Some time later I meet a young graduate
When I had nobody to call my own
I told her I was looking for somebody to appreciate
And I just couldn't do it alone

So for awhile we conducted experiments
In an apartment by the River Road
And we found out that the two things we put together had
A bad tendency to explode

Oh-oh, all about chemistry
Won't you show me everything you've learned
I'll memorize everything you do to me so I can
Teach it when it comes my trun

Fine spring day, California waves
Sweet pacific scenes through the
Windows of air planes and hotel rooms

So when I find myself alone and unworthy
I think about all of the things I learned from the
Fine, fine woman with nothing but good intentions and
A bad tendency to get burned


And this one because it really spells out how I live...

This'll Be My Year by Semisonic

Thursday's crush is a Friday night rush
And a Monday morning cry
It's the tail that you keep chasing
And it gets away every time
New Year's eve and it's hard to believe
Another Zodiac's gone around
While you drank yourself high on hoping
And watched the ceiling spin from the ground

Counting down from ten it's time
To make your annual prayer
Secret Santa in the sky
When will I get my share

Then you tell yourself
What you want to hear
Cause you have to believe
This will be my year

Pound your fist and cross it off your list
But you know you're not that strong
When the man at the stop light catches you
Singing along to a brand new song

Well maybe it's trash
Or the overnight smash that brings your
Ship crashing through the wall
So you can make your grand departure
From a world getting way too small

One wheel in the ditch another
Spinning in the air
Put your pedal down to the floorboard but you're not
Getting anywhere

Then you tell yourself
What you want to hear
'Cause you have to believe
This will be my year

DOWN IN THE BOONDOCKS
Billy Joe Royal

Down in the boondocks
Down in the boondocks
People put me down 'cause
That's the side of town I was born in
I love her she loves me but I don't fit in her society
Lord have mercy on the boy from down in the boondocks

Ev'ry night I watch the lights from the house up on the hill
I love a little girl who lives up there and I guess I always will
But I don't dare knock on her door
'Cause her daddy is my boss man
So I have to try to be content
Just to see her when ever I can

Down in the boondocks
Down in the boondocks
People put me down 'cause
That's the side of town I was born in
I love her she loves me but I don't fit in her society
Lord have mercy on the boy from down in the boondocks

Down in the boondocks
Down in the boondocks

One fine day I'll find the way to move from this old shack
I'll hold my head up like a king and I never never will look back
Until that morning I'll work and slave
And I'll save ev'ry dime
But tonight she'll have to steal away
To see me one more time

Down in the boondocks
Down in the boondocks
People put me down 'cause
That's the side of town I was born in
I love her she loves me but I don't fit in her society
Lord have mercy on the boy from down in the boondocks
Lord have mercy on the boy from down in the boondocks
Lord have mercy on the boy from down in the boondocks

Rise by Gabrielle

I know that it's over
But I can't believe we're through
They say that time's a healer
And I'm better without you
It's gonna take time, I know
But I'll get over you

Look in my life
Look in my heart
I have seen them fall apart
And now I'm ready to rise again
Just look in my hopes
Look in my dreams
Building bridges from these scenes
Now I'm ready to rise again

Caught up in my thinking, yeah
Like a prisoner in my mind
You pose so many questions
That the truth is hard to find
I'd better think twice, I know
Then I'll get over you

Look in my life
Look in my heart
I have seen them fall apart
And now I'm ready to rise again
Just look in my hopes
Look in my dreams
Building bridges from these scenes
Now I'm ready to rise again

Much time has passed between us
Do you still think of me at all?
My world of broken promises
Now you won't catch me when I fall

Look in my life
Look in my heart
I have seen them fall apart
And now I'm ready to rise again
Just look in my hopes
Look in my dreams
Building bridges from these scenes
Now I'm ready to rise again

Yes I'm gonna rise
Gonna make it all right
I'm gonna be who I wanna be
I'm gonna make it all right

Stevie Nicks Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

For all the dm's and Tia's just fighting through life:

That Made me Stronger

Dreams reoccur in my solitude
Breaking my heart
Injuring my mood
With all of the things that I thought I knew
It was you

Chorus:
Well the conversation rings in my head
Well you know me better than I know myself
Will you write this for me
He says no, you write your songs yourself
That made me stronger
It made me hold on to me

Well, I remember
You caught my eye
It was late September
It was no surprise
He made me better
His songs were soft and tender sometimes

Well the conversations ring in my head
I remember everything that we said
All those tears that we shed

The conversations ring in my head
I remember everything that we said
All those tears that we shed
Don't call me when you're lonely

Well once more I tell the shadows of my soul
To stay back
Everything has changed now
And I don't want to go back
And nothing you can say can change my mind

Well once more I tell the shadows of my soul
To stay back
Everything has changed now
And I don't want to go back
And nothing you can say can change my mind


Too Far From Texas

There's a plane, it's headed for London
Twenty-four hours more and he'll be on it
And I can't show my love, and I can't stop it
Ooh, I can't stop it

There's a house there, somebody's waiting
Somebody else's arms will wrap around him
And in that moment what will he think then...
When I can't touch him

Chorus:
Maybe my love could fly over the ocean
Maybe my heart should try to leave him alone
All that I really know is that he's goin'
Too far from Texas
Too close to home

In a room just outside of Houston
That's where I spend my nights trying to get through to him
He says he's comin' back in every letter...
But he might never
No he might never

Does he know how long
I've waited for this love to come
Does he know I'm holdin' on
And that won't change no matter where he's gone

Couldn't I, couldn't I wait
Couldn't he, couldn't he stay one more day

Put an end to popups!

Stevie Nicks rocks, doesn't she?
It still pisses me off though that she threw it all away with Lindsey Buckingham.
It's as though she had to have "artist's suffering" or something.

oh yeah Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

i love her and i like Fleetwood Mac alot. What do you think about her alliance with SHeryl Crow and Sarah MAcLaughlin. Her cameo on the "Bootylicious" video of Destiny's Child didn't impress me though.

Whenever i Call You Friend by Stevie Nicks and Kenny Loggins

Whenever I call you friend
I begin to think I understand
Anything we are
You and I have always been ever and ever


I see myself within your eyes
And that's all I need to show me why
Everything I do, always takes me home to you
Ever and ever


Now I know my life has given me
More than memories
Day by day we can see
In every moment there's a reason to carry on


Sweet love showin' us a heavenly light
I've never seen such a beautiful sight
Sweet love flowin' almost every night
I know forever we'll be doin' it...right


Whenever I call you friend
I believe I've come to understand
Everywhere we are you and I were meant to be
Forever and ever


I think about the times to come
Knowin' I will be the lucky one
Ever our love will last
I always want to call you friend


Sweet love...sweet love
You're the glowing light in my life
The source of pride in my life
Everything I do takes me back to you

Blues Power
by Eric Clapton and Leon Russell

Bet you didn't think I knew how to rock 'n' roll.
Oh, I got the boogie-woogie right down in my very soul.
There ain't no need for me to be a wallflower,
'Cause now I'm living on blues power.

I knew all the time but now I'm gonna let you know:
I'm gonna keep on rocking, no matter if it's fast or slow.
Ain't gonna stop until the twenty-fifth hour,
'Cause now I'm living on blues power.

First Verse

Talking to you, now.
The boogie's gonna pull me through.
Keep on, keep on, keep on keeping on.
Keep on keeping on, keep on keeping on.

Lateralus by Tool

Black then white are all I see in my infancy.
Red and yellow then came to be, reaching out to me.
Lets me see.
As below, so above and beyond, I imagine
Drawn beyond the lines of reason.
Push the envelope. Watch it burn.

Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind.
Withering my intuition, missing opportunities and I must
Feed my will to feel my moment drawing way outside the lines.

Black then white are all i see in my infancy.
Red and yellow then came to be, reaching out to me.
Lets me see there is so much more and
Beckons me to look thru to these infinite possibilities.
As below, so above and beyond, I imagine
Drawn beyond the lines of reason.
Push the envelope. Watch it bend.

Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind.
Withering my intuition leaving all these opportunities behind.
Feed my will to feel this moment urging me to cross the line.
Reaching out to embrace the random.
Reaching out to embrace whatever may come.

I embrace my desire to
Feel the rhythm, to feel connected enough to step aside and weep like a widow
To weep like a widow, to fathom the power, to witness the beauty,
To bathe in the fountain,
To swing on the spiral of our divinity and still be a human.

With my feet upon the ground I lose myself
Between the sounds and open wide to suck it in.
I feel it move across my skin.
I'm reaching up and reaching out.
I'm reaching for the random or what ever will bewilder me.
And following our will and wind we may just go where no one's been.
We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one's been.
Spiral out. Keep going.

Tainted Love by Soft Cell

Sometimes I feel I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
From the pain that you drive into the heart of me
The love we share
Seems to go nowhere
And I've lost my light
For I toss and turn I can't sleep at night

(chorus)
Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Oh...tainted love
Tainted love

Now I know I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
You don't really want IT any more from me
To make things right
You need someone to hold you tight
And you'LL think love is to pray
But I'm sorry I don't pray that way

Don't touch me please
I cannot stand the way you tease
I love you though you hurt me so
Now I'm going to pack my things and go
Tainted love, tainted love
Touch me baby, tainted love
Tainted love
