Alicia Keys
Caged Bird
Right now I feel like a bird
Caged without a key
Everyone comes to stare at me
With so much joy and revelry
They don't know how I feel inside
Through my smile, I cry
They don't know what they're doin’ to me
Keeping me from flyin’
That's why I say that
I know why the caged bird sings
Only joy comes from song
She's so rare and beautiful to others
Why not just set her free?
So she can
Fly, fly, fly
Spreadin’ her wings and her song
Let her
Fly, fly, fly
For the whole world to see
She's like caged bird
Fly, fly
Oooh, just let her fly
Just let her fly
Just let her fly
Spread the wings
Spread the beauty

Nelly Furtado
Turn Off the Light
It's getting so lonely inside this bed
Don't know if I should lick my wounds or say woe is me instead
And there's an aching inside my head
It's telling me I'm better off alone
But after midnight morning will come
And the day will see if you will get some
They say that girl ya know she act too tough tough tough
Well it's till' I turn off the light, turn off the light
They say that girl you know she act so rough rough rough
Well it's till' I turn off the light, turn off the light
And I say follow me follow me follow me down down down down
till' you see all my dreams
Not everything in this magical world is quite what it seems
I looked above the other day
Cuz I think I'm good and ready for a change
I live my life by the moon
If it's high play it low, if it's harvest go slow and if it's full, then go
But after midnight morning will come
And the day will see if you're gonna get some
They say that girl ya know she act too tough tough tough
Well it's till' I turn off the light, turn off the light
They say that girl you know she act so rough rough rough
Well it's till' I turn off the light, turn off the light
And I say follow me follow me follow me down down down down
till' you see all my dreams
Not everything in this magical world is quite what it seems
I'm searching for things that I just cannot see
Why don't you don't you don't you come and be with me
I pretend to be cool with me, want to believe
That I can do it on my own without my heart on my sleeve
I'm running, I'm running, catch up with me life
Where is the love that I'm looking to find
It's all in me, can't you see, I can see, why can't you see it's all in me
They say that girl ya know she act too tough tough tough
Well it's till' I turn off the light, turn off the light
They say that girl you know she act so rough rough rough
Well it's till' I turn off the light, turn off the light
And I say follow me follow me follow me down down down down
till' you see all my dreams
Not everything in this magical world is quite what it seems
Where is your logic
Who do you need
Where can you turn in your delicate time of need
Follow me down, follow me down down down,
I do not need I do not need nobody
Where is your logic
Who do you need
Where can you turn in your delicate time of need.

Wreckage-My mind
Insecure-All the time
ONCE LOVED-NOW PARALYZED
I ONCE THOUGHT-I'LL NEVER DIE
Frustrated-OUR SIMPLE LIVES
No one listens-EVERYONE LIES
Who said "HOME IS WHERE YOU HIDE"?
strong as **** and now you see
I'm home-leave it to me
(leave it to me now that you've seen)
I'm home-leave it to me
(leave it to me)
From left to right...
(repeat)
I tried-my father said
I'm scared-she always said
They grab and pull until I tear
MEANING-Too deep to swim
When's a good time for the end?
Who said I was YOUR FRIEND?
I'm home-leave it to me
(leave it to me now that you've seen)
I'm home-leave it to me
(leave it to me)
From left to right...
(repeat)
Suffocated-our simple life
No one listens-everyone dies
Never a chance-how could you see?
I'm home-leave it to me (leave it to me)
I'm home-leave it to me (leave it to me now that you've seen)
I'm home-leave it to me (leave it to me)
I'm home-leave it to me (what the **** did you say?)
from left to right...
Natural High by Union Underground
Times I'm uncertain I can't unwind
The **** we learned became a lie
Can't live forever angry and blind
The lengths we go to satisfy
It's a natural high
I'm not your savior no ****in' lie
I'd kill myself to stay alive
Forget the future regret the past
No present tense is gonna last
Swimming in a sea of a jealous tide
Won't wash your hate away
Selling your soul for a piece of mind
Can't buy yourself today
Ain't it funny how the power the money
The consistency of the truth
Bleed today but laugh tomorrow
In the burden of our youth

I am by Static x
i've been talking abuse and it's senseless
fist into the wall and it's painless
i've been living the lie that i made me
live it
screaming into the mic and i like it
put it all over the air in thick slices
soak it all up in your head with the anger
like it
older
elder
i am
(grind on it)
deeper
bleaker
i am
brush the surface off and grind on it
put a gun in my mouth and threaten to shoot
justice died here
My December by Linkin Park
This is my December.
This is my time of the year.
This is my December.
This is all so clear.
This is my December.
This is my snow covered home.
This is my December.
This is me alone.
And I...
Just wish that I didn't feel.
Like there was something I missed.
And I...
Take back all the things I said.
To make you feel like that.
And I...
Just wish that I didn't feel.
Like there was something I missed.
And I...
Take back all the things that I said to you.
And I'd give it all away.
Just to have somewhere to go too.
Give it all away.
To have someone to come home too.
This is my December.
These are my snow covered dreams.
This is me pretending.
This is all I need.
And I...
Just wish that I didn't feel.
Like there was something I missed.
And I...
Take back all the things I said.
To make you feel like that.
And I...
Just wish that I didn't feel.
Like there was something I missed.
And I...
Take back all the things that I said to you.
And I'd give it all away.
Just to have somewhere to go too.
Give it all away
To have someone to come home too.
This is my December.
This is my time of the year.
This is my December.
This is all so clear.
And I'd give it all away...
Just to have somewhere to go to.
Give it all away....
To have someone to come home to.

I Am, I Feel - Alisha's Attic
He said: "Angel put that purple skirt on, y'know it makes me hot"
He said: "Come on, Come on, get on, get up, look like
You're enjoying my company",
Oh and he said: "You can't change the world,
yr'another one of my fools
You were born to have my baby now.
Don't cry my precious one, coz
I ain't got no sympathy for you"
And I am, I feel, like
I wanna bite his head off
Yeah that'd be fun
Coz I sure got an appetite
I click my heels together three times
They sparked a little, but nothing happened
And the big bad wolf's still in my bed
I am, I feel
(I sometimes think that you forget) that
I am, I feel
I got to get away from here
I am, I feel
This girl's a person y'know
I am, I feel
Oh he said: "Angel your halo ain't fitted that good for a little while now
You ain't got that certain glow that I get a kick out of"
(Like it bothered me)
I'm taking it on the chin, with a grin
But my feet are itchin' and itchin',
He says: "Don't cry my precious one
Coz I ain't got no sympathy for you"
And I am, I feel, like
I wanna smash his face in
Yeah! That'd be fun
Coz I sure got a fist for a fight
I click my heels together three times
They sparked a little, but nothing happened
And the big bad wolf's still in my bed
And I am, I feel
(I sometimes think that you forget) that
I am, I feel
I got to get away from here
I am, I feel
And this girl's a person y'know
I am, I feel
Well it's had to get through it when you're knockin' on wood
And I got to thinkin' I was worth more than he put on my boots
I got a soul if you get down to the roots
I am, I feel
(I sometimes think that you forget) that
I am, I feel
I got to get away from here
I am, I feel
And this girl's a person y'know
I am, I feel
I am, and I feel
I am, and I feel
I am, I feel
This girl's a person y'know
I am, I feel
I am, I feel
(I sometimes think that you forget) that
I am, and I feel
I got to get away from here
I am, I feel
And this girl's a person y'know...

Basketball Jones
Written by Richard A. "Cheech" Marin and Thomas Chong
Basketball Jones, I got a Basketball Jones
Got a Basketball Jones, oh baby, oo-oo-ooo
Yes, I am the victim of a Basketball Jones
Ever since I was a little baby, I always be dribblin'
In fac', I was de baddest dribbler in the whole neighborhood
Then one day, my mama bought me a basketball
And I loved that basketball
I took that basketball with me everywhere I went
That basketball was like a basketball to me
I even put that basketball underneath my pillow
Maybe that's why I can't sleep at night
I need help, ladies and gentlemens
I need someone to stand beside me
I need, I need someone to set a pick for me at the free-throw line of life
Someone I can pass to
Someone to hit the open man on the give-and-go
And not end up in the popcorn machine
So cheerleaders, help me out
{cheerleaders sing repeatedly...}
(Basketball Jones, I got a Basketball Jones)
(I got a Basketball Jones, oh baby, oo-oo-ooo)
{while Tyrone Shoelaces sings/speaks...}
Oh, that sounds so sweet
Sing it out
C'mon Coach Booty, Red Blazer, sing along with me
That be bad, honky
Yeah
I want everybody in the whole stadium to stand up and sing with us
Oh yeah, sing it out like you're proud
All right, everybody watchin' coast-to-coast, sing along with us
Bill Russell, sing along with us
Chick Hearn, sing along with us
Chris Schenkel, don't sing nothin'
Oh, it feels so good
Gimme the ball
I'll go one-on-one against the world, left-handed
I could stuff it from center court with my toes
I could jump on top of the backboard, take off a quarter, leave fifteen cents change I
could, I could dribble behind my back I got more moves than Ex-Lax I'm bad I could
dribble with my tongue Here I go down court, try to stop me You can't stop me 'cause I
got a Basketball Jones Here I come That's my hook shot with my eyebrow Yeah, I could
dunk it with my nose I'm, I'm bad as King Kong, gimme the ball I'm hot, I'm hot as...,
I'm hot as..., I'm hot as... uh Uh, uh, uh, uh
(Basketball Jones, I got a Basketball Jones, I got a Basketball Jones, Basketball Jones)
(Basketball Jones, I got a Basketball Jones, I got a Basketball Jones, Basketball Jones)
(Basketball Jones, I got a Basketball Jones, I got a Basketball Jones, Basketball Jones)
(Basketball Jones, I got a Basketball Jones, I got a Basketball Jones, Basketball Jones)

And staying in the basketball mood:
Jurassic 5
The Game
All right, everybody shut up
I said shut up!
Now are you ready to play the game?
NO!
Are you ready to play the game?
YEAH!
The Game
Playing to survive
Aiming to win anyway they can
Yo, yo
Pass the ball, final casting call
First of all, verbal basketball
Off the glass, smash your jaw
Too fast for y'all
You might take a nasty fall
Trying to stick with the prehistoric passenger
(Foul Ball)
All breath, no physical contact
Bounce back, demonstrate invincible bomb raps
Not no hustler no player or speakin no crime crap
I'm vocally trying to score before my time lapse
Uh! Full court press, hands in your chest
Runnin' cause I'm a rebel with the ghetto finesse
No fouls just checks, make a brother sweat
Word for y'all to earn my reject
Get it out of here, attack from the rear
Ya'll niggas aint nothin but some ***** ass queers
I'll be in your ear, increase the fear
Rippin with the shears as the crowd just cheers
Bring on the opposition
Cause my position is to shut you down
As the basketball pounds on the concrete floor
Envisioning moves to freak brothers every which way
Dominating like Doc J.
Pass me the rock, I know just what to do with it
It's real vivid, I pivot, through the lane
Three hundred and sixty behind my back
I take your monkey ass to the rack like Jerry Stack
I'm sought by most recruiters and heavily recommended
Stickin your best shooters they lower verbal percentage
It's takin its toll, 24-second clock control
Stoppin this obstacle, impossible
I was the number one block project in the city
Prospect, now thats something that you can believe
So be it, whether pro or collegiate, the hit but don't miss
Prime time the offense, switch
Y'all can't ball, Y'all can't ball
Yo ref, where's the tech? Man, make the call
The game is gettin tight verbal victories in sight
What counts is what you write not concerned about the height
My rhymes go baseline so why you tryin to take mine?
Last man tried just died inside the paint line
I bank rhymes, got a call so I flex
I'm on the foul line with a few verses left
When my flow hits the net, the next brother flex
I put my foot in the pavement
With the brothers I'm raised with
Play with and break dance back in the days with
And still in the game with 12 points, no assists
Get up in the game, in your face like swish
Crash the boards with metaphors
In the air like a concord
Aiyyo what you out for?
Yo I'm out for the whole score
22 flat seconds for me to win
I can't win for losin with this cheatin ass ref
[Clip from Laker game]
My squad's supreme
So I don't need Clyde or the dream
Next time you play the game boy pick a better team
Your choice is short when you on a concrete court
But my mental cohorts is bout to change the whole sport
Give me the bill boy, crossover with the skills
Wrap around pass, fly right past your grill
Take off from half court, in some J5 shorts
The rap band with the man when my words play sports
Comin' through your lane, with pure skills so stand clear
Vocal charge is a mirage, I still stand here
Damn near, make your **** look soft like Pam Grier
Fans cheer for the paragraph Bill Lambier
Show me the rock, so I can show these fool what I got
(He's heating up) **** that, I'm flaming hot
Verbally take you to the blacktop, and wreck shop
Turn my game up a notch, pass me the rock
1 on 1, 3 on 3, 5 on 5, horse, 21
It really don't matter cause son you'll still get done
Yo you should know better than try to barter with this globetrotter
Militious, vicious dunks, I'm Vince Carter
And it's the high draft pick, flashin it
Still can penetrate and slightly overweight
But whatever it takes my shot can elevate
No pain, no gain for the brothers with no game

Strange Magic
ELO
You're sailing softly through the sun
in a broken stone age dawn.
You fly so high.
I get a strange magic,
oh, what a strange magic,
oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,
got a strange magic.
You're walking meadows in my mind,
making waves across my time,
oh no, oh no.
I get a strange magic,
oh, what a strange magic,
oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,
got a strange magic.
Oh, I'm never gonna be the same again,
now I've seen the way it's got to end,
sweet dream, sweet dream.
Strange magic,
oh, what a strange magic,
oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,
got a strange magic.
It's magic, it's magic, it's magic.
Strange magic,
oh, what a strange magic,
oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic.
Strange magic STRANGE MAGIC
oh, what a strange magic STRANGE MAGIC
oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic.
Strange magic STRANGE MAGIC
oh, what a strange magic STRANGE MAGIC
oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,
got a strange magic,
you know I got a strange magic,
yeah, I got a strange magic,
oo-o-o-oo, strange magic. (fade)

Going Down Slow
by St. Louis Jimmy
I have had my fun if I never get well no more.
I have had my fun if I never get well no more.
All of my health is failing;
Lord, I'm going down slow,
I'm going down slow.
Please write my mother and tell her the shape I'm in.
Please write my mother and tell her the shape I'm in.
Tell her to pray for me,
Forgive me for my sin,
For all of my sin.
On the next train south, look for my clothes back home.
On the next train south, look for my clothes back home.
'Cause all of my health is failing;
Lord, I'm going down slow,
I'm going down slow.
All of my health is failing;
Lord, I'm going down slow,
I'm going down slow.
Feel like I'm going, like I'm going down slow.
I feel like I'm going, like I'm going down slow.
I feel like I'm going, like I'm going down slow.
I feel like I'm going, like I'm going down slow.
I feel like I'm going, like I'm going down slow.

Sometimes Wanna die by Joydrop
Don’t worry ‘bout one thing
Don’t worry bout nothin she said
I'm not gonna let this one go
Nobody’s on my side
Nobody seems to see how much,
How deep, how far these things can be,
My eyes are dry and I,
My eyes are dry and
I, I, still don’t even know you
I, I, still wish that I could hold you
I, I, I sometimes wanna die
And everywhere I go
And everyone I see
Somehow
Almost sets me free
And the space where we meet
Is different from the rest
And I just can't seem to forget that.
My eyes are dry and
I, I, still don’t even know you
I, I, still wish that I could hold you
I, I, I sometimes wanna die
I sometimes wanna die
I sometimes wanna…
And u were at the start
And now you are the end
And you left me with nothing to defend
I need the voice of a good friend.
Can't stop myself from laughing
No matter how sad
These things can be
These things can be
My eyes r bright and
I, I, still don’t even know you
I, I, still wish that I could hold you
I, I, still don’t even know you
I, I, I sometimes wanna die
I sometimes wanna die
I sometimes wanna die
Yeah I sometimes wanna die…

Fever
Never know how much I love you
Never know how much I care
When you put your arms around me
I get a fever that's so hard to bear
You give me fever (you give me fever) when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight (you give me fever)
Fever ... in the mornin'
Fever all through the night
Sun lights up the day time
Moon lights up the night
I light up when you call my name
'cause I know you're gonna treat me right
You give me fever (you give me fever) when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight (you give me fever)
Fever ... in the mornin'
Fever all through the night (WOW!!)
Everybody's got the fever
That is somethin' you all know
Fever isn't such a new thing
Fever started long time ago
(You give me fever)
Baby, turn on your love light (yeah, yeah)
Let it shine on me (yeah, yeah)
Well, baby, turn on your love light (yeah, yeah)
And let it shine on me (yeah, yeah)
Well, just a little bit higher (yeah, yeah)
And just a little bit brighter, baby (yeah, yeah)
You give me fever (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
You give me fever (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
You give me fever (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
You give me fever.
END OF THE McCOYS 1965 VERSION
Alternative verses found in Peggy Lee's 1958 version: NOT verified by this
transcriber but thought to be correct.
Romeo loved Juliet
Juliet she felt the same
When he put his arms around her
He said, "Julie baby you're my flame"
Thou givest fever when we kisseth
Fever with thy flaming youth
Fever I’m on fire
Fever yea I burn forsooth
Captain Smith and Pocahontas
Had a very mad affair
When her daddy tried to kill him
She said "Daddy oh don't you dare"
"He gives me fever with his kisses"
"Fever when he holds me tight"
"Fever, I’m his missus"
"Daddy won't you treat him right?"
Now you've listened to my story
Here's the point that I have made
Cats were born to give chicks fever
Be it Fahrenheit or centigrade
We give you fever when we kiss you
Fever if you live and learn
Fever till you sizzle
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn, ah
What a lovely way to burn

Something to think about in these times... (this is vintage Michael here...)
Earth Song
Michael Jackson
What about sunrise?
What about rain?
What about all the things
That you said we were to gain?
What about killing fields?
Is there a time
What about all the things
That you said was yours and mine?
Did you ever stop to notice
All the blood we've shed before?
Did you ever stop to notice
This crying Earth this weeping shore?
Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh
Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh
What have we done to the world?
Look what we've done
What about all the peace
That you pledged your only son?
What about flowering fields?
Is there a time
What about all the dreams
That you said was yours and mine?
Did you ever stop to notice
All the children dead from war?
Did you ever stop to notice
This crying Earth this weeping shore?
Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh
Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh
I used to dream
I used to glance beyond the stars
Now I don't know where we are
Although I know we've drifted far
Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh
Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh
Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh
Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh
What about yesterday? (What about us)
What about the seas? (What about us)
The heavens are falling down (What about us)
I can't even breathe (What about us)
What about everything (What about us)
I didn't even do? (What about us)
What about nature's worth? (ooo, ooo)
It's our planet's womb (What about us)
What about animals? (What about it)
We've turned kingdoms to dust (What about us)
What about elephants? (What about us)
Have we lost their trust? (What about us)
What about crying whales? (What about us)
We're ravaging the seas (What about us)
What about forest trails (ooo, ooo)
Burnt despite our pleas? (What about us)
What about the holy land (What about it)
Torn apart by greed? (What about us)
What about the common man (What about us)
Can't we set him free? (What about us)
What about children dying? (What about us)
Can't you hear them cry? (What about us)
Where did we go wrong? (ooo, ooo)
Someone tell me why! (What about us)
What about baby boys? (What about it)
What about the days? (What about us)
What about all their joy? (What about us)
What about the man? (What about us)
What about the crying man? (What about us)
What about Abraham? (What was us)
What about death again? (ooo, ooo)
Do we give a damn?
Aaaaaaaaah Oooeeeeooh
Aaaaaaaaah Oooooooooh

Fly Away from Here by Aerosmith
You gotta find a way
Yeah, I can't wait another day
Ain't nothin' gonna change
If we stay around here
I gotta do what it takes
Because it's all in our hands
We all make mistakes
Yeah, but it's never to late to start again (yeah yeah)
Take another breath
And say another prayer
Then fly away from here
To anywhere
Yeah, I don't care
If we just fly away from here
Our hopes and dreams
Are out there somewhere
Won't let time pass us by
We'll just fly
If this life
Gets any harder now
It ain't no nevermind
Ya got me by your side
And anytime you want (fly fly fly)
Yeah we catch a train
And find a better place
Yeah, 'cause we won't let nothin'
or no one keep gettin' us down
maybe you and I
Could pack our bags and hit the sky
Then fly away from
To anywhere
Yeah, I don't care
If we just fly away from here
And our hopes and dreams
Are out there somewhere
I won't let time pass us by
We'll just fly
Do you see a bluer sky now
You could have a better ride now
Open your eyes
Bacause no one here can ever stop us
They can try but we won't let them
No way-ay-ay-ay-yeah-ah
maybe you and I
Could pack our bags and say goodbye
Then fly away from here
To anywhere
No honey I don't care
If we just fly away from here
And our hopes and dreams
Are out there somewhere
Fly away from here (ya ya ya)
Yeah anywhere
Now honey, I don't I don't I don't fly (yeah)
We just fly (fly away)

Gangsta's Paradise
COOLIO
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I take a look at my life and realise there's nuthin' left
coz I've been blasting and laughing so long, that
even my mama thinks that my mind is gone
but I ain't never crossed a man that didn't deserve it
me be treated like a punk you know that's unheard of
you better watch how you're talking, and where you're walking
or you and your homies might be lined in chalk
I really hate to trip but i gotta loc
As I Grow I see myself in the pistol smoke, fool
I'm the kinda G the little homies wanna be like
on my knees in the night, saying prayers in the streetlight.
been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
keep spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
keep spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
The getto situation, they got me facin'
I can't live a normal life, I was raised by the stripes
so I gotta be down with the hood team
too much television watching got me chasing dreams
I'm an educated fool with money on my mind
got my tin in my hand and a gleam in my eye
I'm a loc'd out gangsta set trippin' banger
and my homies is down so don't arouse my anger, fool
death ain't nothing but a heartbeat away,
I'm living life, do or die, what can I say
I'm 23 now, but will I live to see 24
the way things are going I don't know
Tell me why are we, so blind to see
That the one's we hurt, are you and me
been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
Power and the money, money and the power (*)
minute after minute, hour after hour
everybody's running, but half of them ain't looking
what's going on in the kitchen, but I don't know what's cookin'
they say I gotta learn, but nobody's here to teach me
if they can't undersstand it, how can they reach me
I guess they can't, I guess they won't
I guess they front, that's why I know my life is out of luck, fool
been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
been spending most their lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
spending most our lives, living in the gangsta's paradise
Tell me why are we, so blind to see
That the one's we hurt, are you and me
Tell me why are we, so blind to see
That the one's we hurt, are you and me
(fade out)

Creep by STP
Forward yesterday
Makes me wanna stay
What they said was real
Makes me wanna steal
Livin' under house
Guess I'm livin', I'm a mouse
All's I gots is time
Got no meaning, just a rhyme
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal
I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be, half the man I used to be
Feelin' uninspired
Think I'll start a fire
Everybody run
Bobby's got a gun
Think you're kinda neat
Then she tells me I'm a creep
Friends don't mean a thing
Guess I'll leave it up to me
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
Guess I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal
I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be, half the man I used to be
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
Guess I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal
I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
Because I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be, half the man I used to be,
Half the man I used to be

In Repair
by Our Lady Peace
Well it's good to know that you'll be okay
I've been waiting for this
And I'll be there to sit
While you pray no one's blaming me
I'm not supposed to wait
When they open up your heart...
I have been good
I understood
Like a machine they'll fix you from the start
I'm in repair
The life that we share
I know that I'll be lost in
But we're always in repair
Lock the door, lock the door
And it's good to know that you'll drive away
From this car crash nightmare
And I'll be there to help you again
There's no danger
We're just killing time again
When they order up new parts
I have been good
I understood
Like a machine they'll fix you from the start
I'm in repair
The life that we share
I know that I'll be lost in
But we're always in repair
Take this time to figure it out
Know the wire, the fuse, the things that you doubt
The wheels, the air, the metal, the mouth
Something, something, something
I have been good
I understood
Like a machine they'll fix you from the start
I'm in repair
The life that we share
I know that I'll be lost in
But we're always in repair
Take this time to figure it out
The wire, the fuse, the things that you doubt
The wheels, the air, the metal, the mouth
Something, something, something

AEroplane by Red Hot CHilli Peppers
Looking in my own eyes
I can't find the love I want
Someone better slap me
Before I start to rust
Before I start to decompose
Looking in my rear view mirror
Looking in my rear view mirror
I can make it disappear
I like pleasure spiked with pain
Music is my aeroplane
It's my aeroplane
Songbird sweet and sour Jane
Music is my aeroplane
It's my aeroplane
Sitting in my kitchen
I'm turning into dust again
My melancholy baby
The star of mazzy must
Push her voice inside of me
I'm overcoming gravity
I'm overcoming gravity
It's easy when you're sad to be
Just one note
Could make me float
Could make me float away
One note from
The song she wrote
Could **** me where I lay
Just one note
Could make me choke
One note that's
Not a lie
Just one note
Could cut my throat
One could make me die

Promised Land
Chuck Berry
I left my home in Norfolk Virginia,
California on my mind.
Straddled that Greyhound, rode him past Raleigh,
On across Caroline.
Stopped in Charlotte and bypassed Rock Hill,
And we never was a minute late.
We was ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown,
Rollin' 'cross the Georgia state.
We had motor trouble it turned into a struggle,
Half way 'cross Alabam,
And that 'hound broke down and left us all stranded
In downtown Birmingham.
Straight off, I bought me a through train ticket,
Ridin’ cross Mississippi clean
And I was on that midnight flyer out of Birmingham
Smoking into New Orleans.
Somebody help me get out of Louisiana
Just help me get to Houston town.
There’s people there who care a little 'bout me
And they won't let the poor boy down.
Sure as you're born, they bought me a silk suit,
Put luggage in my hands,
And I woke up high over Albuquerque
On a jet to the promised land.
Workin' on a T-bone steak a la carte
Flying over to the Golden State;
The pilot told me in thirteen minutes
We'd be headin' in the terminal gate.
Swing low sweet chariot, come down easy
Taxi to the terminal zone;
Cut your engines, cool your wings,
And let me make it to the telephone.
Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia,
Tidewater four ten O nine
Tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin'
And the poor boy's on the line.
