Runaway Train
by Soul Asylum

Call you up in the middle of the night
Like a firefly without a light
You were there like a slow torch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning

So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep

It seems no one can help me now
I'm in too deep
There's no way out
This time I have really led myself astray

Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here no there

Can you help me remember how to smile
Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
How on earth did I get so jaded
Life's mystery seems so faded

I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
Here I am just drownin' in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train

And everything seems cut and dry
Day and night, earth and sky
Somehow I just don't believe it

Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here no there

Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughin' at the rain
Little out of touch, little insane
Just easier than dealing with the pain

Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here no there

Runaway train never comin' back
Runaway train tearin' up the track
Runaway train burnin' in my veins
Runaway but it always seems the same

Yay DM! Two of my fave songs in one go!
Tracy Chapman was simply posted because I bought her greatest hits album yesterday. Someone explain what FFZ is???

I Love You Always Forever by Donna Lewis

Feels like
I'm standing in a timeless dream
of light mists of pale amber rose
Feels like I'm lost in a deep cloud
of heavenly scent touching
discovering you.

Those days of warm rains
come rushing back to me
miles of windless summer night air
Secret moments shared
in the heat of the afternoon
out of the stillness
soft spoken words

say it say it again

I love you always forever
near and far closer together
everywhere I will be with you
everything I will do for you

You've got the most unbelievable
blue eyes I've ever seen
You've got me almost melting away
As we lay there under blue sky
with pure white stars
exotic sweetness a magical time

say it say it again

Say you'll love love me forever
never stop never whatever
near and far and always
and everywhere and everything

Always It's You
- Everly Brothers


When I feel down hearted
when I'm feeling blue
when I'm low and lonely
who do I turn to
It's you
always it's you

When I'm dreaming day dreaming
who comes into view
who shares all my day dreams
who makes them come true
It's you
always it's you

When I feel like smiling your the reason why
If I ever lost you I'd cry and cry
Oh hold me close my true love
kiss me tenderly
There is only one love
one alone for me
It's you
always it's you

Song for the left wing Eurocom majority:

**** AUTHORITY by Pennywise

someday you gotta find another way you better right your mind and live by what you say today is just another day unless you set your sights and try to find a way

i say **** authority silent majority raised by the system now it's time to rise against them we're sick of your treason sick of your lies **** no we won't listen we're gonna open your eyes frustration domination feel the rage of a new generation we're living we're dying and we're never gonna stop trying

you know the time is right to take control we got to take offense against the status quo no way not gonna stand for it today fight for your rights it's time we had our say

Perhaps Love
by Placido Domingo and John Denver


Perhaps love is like a resting place
A shelter from the storm
It exists to give you comfort
It's there to keep you warm
And in those times of trouble
When you are most alone
The memory of love will bring you home

Perhaps love is like a window
Perhaps an open door
It invites you to come closer
It wants to show you more
And even if you lose yourself
And don't know what to do
The memory of love will see you through

** Oh ! Love to some is like a cloud
To some as strong as steel
For some a way of living
For some a way to feel
And some say love is holding on
And some say let it go
And some say love is everything
Some say they don't know

Perhaps love is like the ocean
Full of conflicts , full of pain
Like a fire when it's cold outside
Thunder when it rains
If I should live forever
And all my dreams come true
My memory of love will be of you

Burnout by Greenday

I declare I don't care no more
I'm burning up and out and growing bored
In my smoked out boring room
My hair is ****ging in my eyes
Dragging my feet to hit the street tonight
To drive along these **** town lights

I'm not growing up, I'm just burnin out
And I stepped in line to walk amongst the dead

oh Apathy has rained on me
Now I'm feeling like a soggy dream
So close to drowning but I don't mind
I've lived in this mental cave
Throw my emotions in the grave
Hell, who needs them anyway

I'm not growing up I'm just burnin out
And I stepped in line to walk amongst the dead.

All by Myself by Greenday

I was alone
I was all by myself
No one was looking
I was thinking of you
And did I mension
I was all by myself
All by myself
All by myself

Pretty hair
Such wonderful times
When I'm all by myself
All by myself

Minority by Greenday

I want to be the minority
i don't need your authority
down with the moral majority
Cause i want to be the minority

I pledge alligence to the underworld
One nation under dog
there of which I stand alone
a face in the crowd
unsung against the mould
with out a doubt singled out
the only way i know cause

I want to be the minority
i don't need your authority
down with the moral majority
Cause i want to be the minority

stepped out of the line
like a sheep runs from the herd
marching out of time
to my own beat now
the only way i know

one light, one mind
flashing in the dark
blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts
for crying out loud
she screamed unto me
a free for all **** 'em all
you and your insight

cause I want to be the minority
i don't need your authority
down with the moral majority
Cause i want to be the minority

one light, one mind
flashing in the dark
blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts
for crying out loud she screamed unto me
a free for all **** 'em all
you and your insight

cause I want to be the minority
i don't need your authority
down with the moral majority
Cause i want to be the minority...
the minority...the minority...the minority
i want to be the minority

ThankYou
by Dido

My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why I
got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
and I can't see at all
And even if I could it'd all be gray
but your picture on my wall
It reminds me
that its not so bad, its not so bad...

I drank too much last night
Got bills to pay
My head just feels in pain
I missed the the bus and there'll be hell to pay
I'm late for work again
and even if I was there
they'd all imply
that I might not last the day
And then you call me
And its not so bad, its not so bad

I want to thank you
for giving me the best day of my life
Oh, just to be with you
is giving me the best day of my life

And now I'm home from work at last
and I'm soaking through and through
And then you handed me a towel
and all I see is you
and even if my house fell down now
I wouldn't have a clue
because you're near, and

I want to thank you
for giving me the best day of my life
Oh, just to be with you
is giving me the best day of my life

Duvet by Boa

And you don't seem to understand
A shame you seemed an honest man
And all the fears you hold so dear
Will turn to whisper in your ear
And you know what they say might hurt you
And you know that it means so much
And you don't even feel a thing

I am falling, I am fading,
I have lost it all

And you don't seem the lying kind
A shame that I can read your mind
And all the things that I read there
Candle-lit smile that we both share
And you know I don't mean to hurt you
But you know that it means so much
And you don't even feel a thing

I am falling, I am fading, I am drowning,
Help me to breathe
I am hurting, I have lost it all
I am losing
Help me to breathe

Good band, got to see them in concert not too long ago. Got to meet the lead singer too. Nice lady.

Queen - Let Us Cling Together (Teo Torriatte)

When I'm gone
No need to wonder if I ever think of you
The same moon shines
The same wind blows
For both of us, and time is but a paper moon...
Be not gone

Though I'm gone
It's just as though I hold the flower that touches you
A new life grows
The blossom knows
There's no one else could warm my heart as much as you...
Be not gone

Let us cling together as the years go by
Oh my love, my love
In the quiet of the night
Let our candle always burn
Let us never lose the lessons we have learned

Teo torriatte konomama iko
Aisuruhito yo
Shizukana yoi ni
Hikario tomoshi
Itoshiki oshieo idaki

Hear my song
Still think of me the way you've come to think of me
The nights grow long
But dreams live on
Just close your pretty eyes and you can be with me...
Dream on

Teo torriatte konomama iko
Aisuruhito yo
Shizukana yoi ni
Hikario tomoshi
Itoshiki oshieo idaki

When I'm gone
They'll say we're all fools and we don't understand
Oh be strong
Don't turn your heart
We're all
You're all
For all
For always

Let us cling together as the years go by
Oh my love, my love
In the quiet of the night
Let our candle always burn
Let us never lose the lessons we have learned

lyrics. Axén



And so I can't ignore, my heart is bruised and sore
My sanctuary has been raked, been raked.
My soul is colored red, from all the love I bled
My crucifixion is complete, complete.

Now I need a substitute for.

the love that you gave
now I just can't be saved
and there is no salvation for me.
My sin was to touch but I wanted it too much
Now I know that I've fallen from grace.

No matter how I try, I still can't justify
my absolution is denied, denied.
And so I'm left to burn, my body craves and yearns
the beast inside me is alive, alive.

Now I need a substitute for.

the love that you gave
now I just can't be saved
and there is no salvation for me.
My sin was to touch but I wanted it too much
Now I know that I've fallen from grace.

And so I'm left to burn, my body craves and yearns
my absolution is denied.

the love that you gave
now I just can't be saved
and there is no salvation for me.
My sin was to touch but I wanted it too much
Now I know that I've fallen from grace.

And the sky was made of amethyst
and all the stars look just like little fish

well mine is forever

when they get what they want they never want it again

go on, take everything, take everything i want you to

And the sky was all violet I want it again, but more violet, more violet
hey, i'm the one with no soul

Wrapped up in You by Garth Brooks

How do I love you
Well let me see
I love you like a lyric loves a melody
Baby, completely wrapped up in you.

How do I need you
Well can't you tell
I need you like a penny needs a wishing well
Baby, completely wrapped up in you.

Every now and then
When the world that we're living in's crazy
You gladly hold me and carry me through
No one in the world's ever done what you did for me
And I'd be sad and lonely if there were no you

How do I love you
Well count the ways
There ain't no number high enough to end this phrase
Baby, completely wrapped up in you.

Every now and then
When the world that we're living in's crazy
You gladly hold me and carry me through
No one in the world's ever done what you did for me
And I'd be sad and lonely if there were no you

How do I love you
Well don't you know
I love you bout as deep as any love can grow
Baby, completely wrapped up in you.
Baby, completely wrapped up in you.

That Woman's Got me Drinking

Shane MacGowan

For seven long years
She helped me spend my dough
Now I take her out
But she don't wanna know
That woman's got me drinking
Look at the state I'm in
Give me one, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine, ten bottles of gin

That woman's got me drinking
We used to have some fun
Now shrinks and astrologers
Have got me on the run
That woman's got me drinking
Look at the state I'm in
Give me one, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine, ten bottles of gin

She said she'd always love me
She said I'd be the one
Now look at the way she treats me
Just like a piece of scum
That woman's got me drinking
Look at the state I'm in
Give me one, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine, ten bottles of gin

If I had the guts to do it
I'd take a long goodbye
Instead I'll love her long and hard
And love her 'til I die
That woman's got me drinking
Look at the state I'm in
Give me one, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine, ten bottles of gin

Bottles of gin, bottles of gin, bottles of gin,
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven,
eight, nine, ten bottles of gin

Right Here In My Arms

She's smiling like heaven is down on earth
Sun is shining so bright it hurts
All her wishes have finally come true
Her heart is weeping. Happiness is killing her.
She'll be right here in my arms
So in Love
She'll be right here in these arms
She can't let go
So hard she's trying
But her heart won't turn to stone...oh no
She keeps on crying
But I won't leave her alone
She'll never be alone
She'll be right here in my arms
So in Love
She'll be right here in these arms
She can't let go

Boys Don't Cry

THE CURE


I would say I'm sorry
If I thought that it would change your mind
But I know that this time
I've said too much
Been too unkind

I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try and
Laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
'cause boys don't cry
Boys don't cry

I would break down at your feet
And beg forgiveness
Plead with you
But I know that
It's too late
And now there's nothing I can do

So I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try to
laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
'cause boys don't cry

I would tell you
That I loved you
If I thought that you would stay
But I know that it's no use
That you've already
Gone away

Misjudged your limits
Pushed you too far
Took you for granted
I thought that you needed me more

Now I would do most anything
To get you back by my side
But I just
Keep on laughing
Hiding the tears in my eyes
'cause boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
Boys don't cry

Alexander the Great [356 - 323 BC]

IRON MAIDEN

"My son, ask for thyself another kingdom,
For that which I leave is to small for thee."

Near to the East, in a part of ancient Greece,
In an ancient land called Macedonia,
Was born a son to Philip of Macedon,
The legend his name was Alexander.

At the age of nineteen, he became the Macedon king,
And swore to free all of Asia Minor,
By the Aegian Sea in 334 BC,
He utterly beat the armies of Persia.

Chorus:
Alexander the Great,
His name struck fear into hearts of men,
Alexander the Great,
Became a legend 'mongst mortal men.

King Darius the third, Defeated fled Persia,
The Scythians fell by the river Jaxartes,
Then Egypt fell to the Macedon king as well,
And he founded the city called Alexandria.

By the Tigris river, he met King Darius again,
And crushed him again in the battle of Arbela,
Entering Babylon and Susa, treasures he found,
Took Persepolis, the capital of Persia.

Chorus:
Alexander the Great,
His name struck fear into hearts of men,
Alexander the Great,
Became a god amongst mortal men.

A Phrygian King had bound a chariot yoke,
And Alexander cut the "Gordion knot",
And legend said that who untied the knot,
He would become the master of Asia.

Hellenism he spread far and wide,
The Macedonian learned mind,
Their culture was a western way of life,
He paved the way for Christianity.

Marching on, Marching on.

The battle weary marching side by side,
Alexander's army line by line,
They wouldn't follow him to India,
Tired of the combat, pain and the glory.

Chorus:
Alexander the Great,
His name struck fear into hearts of men,
Alexander the Great,
He died of fever in Babylon.

Stranger in a Strange Land

IRON MAIDEN

Was many years ago that I left home and came this way,
I was a young man full of hopes and dreams,
But now it seems to me that all is lost and nothing gained,
Sometimes things ain't what they seem,
No brave new world, no brave new world,
No brave new world, no brave new world.

Night and day I scan horizon, sea and sky,
My spirit wanders endlessly,
Until the day will dawn and friends from home discover why,
Hear me calling, rescue me,
Set me free, set me free,
Lost in this place and leave no trace.

Chorus:
Stranger in a strange land,
Land of ice and snow,
Trapped here in this prison, yeah!
Lost and far from home.

One hundred years have gone and men again they came that way,
To find the answer to the mystery,
They found his body lying where it fell on that day,
Preserved in time for all to see,
No brave new world, no brave new world,
Lost in this place, and leave no trace.

Chorus:
Stranger in a strange land,
Land of ice and snow,
Trapped here in this prison, yeah!
Lost and far from home.

The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner

IRON MAIDEN

Tough of the track,
With the wind,
And the rain that's beating down on your back.
Your heart's beating loud
And goes on getting louder
And goes on even more till the sound
Is ringing in your head,
With every step you tread,
And every breath you take,
Determination makes
You run,
Never stop,
Gotta win, gotta run till you drop,
Keep the pace,
Hold the race,
Your mind is getting clearer,
You're over halfway there but the miles
Just never seem to end
As if you're in a dream,
Not getting anywhere.
It seems so futile.

Chorus:
Run, on and on,
Run, on and on,
The loneliness of the long distance runner.

I've got to keep running the course,
I've got to keep running and win at all costs,
I've got to keep going, be strong,
Must be so determined and push myself on.

Run over stiles, across fields,
Turn to look at who's on your heels,
Way ahead of the field,
The line is getting nearer but do
You want the glory that goes,
You reach the final stretch,
Ideals are just a trace,
You feel like throwing the race,
It's all so futile.

Chorus:
Run, on and on,
Run, on and on,
The loneliness of the long distance runner.

Losing My Religion by REM

Life is bigger
It's bigger than you
And you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no I've said too much
I set it up

That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no I've said too much
I haven't said enough
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

Every whisper
Of every waking hour I'm
Choosing my confessions
Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt lost and blinded fool
Oh no I've said too much
I set it up

Consider this
The hint of the century
Consider this
The slip that brought me
To my knees failed
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around
Now I've said too much
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
That was just a dream


(I'm Always Touched By Your) Presence, Dear by Blondie

Was it destiny?
I don't know yet
Was it just by chance?
Could this be Kismet?
Something in my consciousness
Told me you'd appear
Now I'm always touched by your presence, dear
When we play at cards you use an extra sense (it's really not cheating)
You can read my hand, I've got no defence
When you send your messages
Whispered loud and clear
I am always touched by your presence, dear

Floating past the evidence of possibilities
We could navigate together, psychic frequencies
Coming into contact with outer entities
We could entertain each one with our theosophies

Stay awake at night and count your R.E.M.'s
When you're talking with your super friends
Levitating lovers in the secret stratosphere
I am still in touch with your presence dear
I am still in touch with your presence dear
I am still in touch with your presence dear, dear, dear, dear, dear


Beautiful Day by U2

The heart is a bloom
Shoots up through the stony ground
There's no room
No space to rent in this town
You're out of luck
And the reason that you had to care
The traffic is stuck
And you're not moving anywhere
You thought you'd found a friend
To take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand
In return for grace

It's a beautiful day - the sky falls
You feel like it's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away

You're on the road
But you've got no destination
You're in the mud
In the maze of her imagination
You love this town
Even if that doesn't ring true
You've been all over
And it's been all over you

It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
It's a beautiful day

Touch me, take me to that other place
Teach me, I know I'm not a hopeless case

See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colours came out

It was a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
Beautiful day

Touch me - take me to that other place
Reach me - I know I'm not a hopeless case
What you don't have you don't need it now
What you don't know you can feel somehow
What you don't have you don't need it now
Don't need it now
It was a beautiful day

I'd Really Love to See You Tonight
by England Dan & John Ford Coley

Hello, yeah, it's been a while.
Not much, how 'bout you?
I'm not sure why I called,
I guess I really just wanted to talk to you.
And I was thinking maybe later on,
We could get together for a while.
It's been such a long time,
And I really do miss your smile.

I'm not talking 'bout moving in,
And I don't want to change your life.
But there's a warm wind blowing,
The stars are out, and I'd really love to see you tonight.

We could go walking through a windy park,
Or take a drive along the beach.
Or stay at home and watch t.v.
You see, it really doesn't matter much to me.

I'm not talking 'bout moving in,
And I don't want to change your life.
But there's a warm wind blowing,
The stars are out, and I'd really love to see you tonight.

I won't ask for promises,
So you won't have to lie.
We've both played that game before,
Say I love you, then say goodbye.

I'm not talking 'bout moving in,
And I don't want to change your life.
But there's a warm wind blowing,
The stars are out, and I'd really love to see you tonight.

Oh my goodness no. During my "experimental" stage I only sucked 20 or so.

No, not really that, you pervs.

I Am A Man Of Constant Sorrow
Dan Tyminski

(In constant sorrow through his days )

I am a man of constant sorrow
I've seen trouble all my day.
I bid farewell to old Kentucky
The place where I was born and raised.
(The place where he was born and raised )

For six long years I've been in trouble
No pleasures here on earth I found
For in this world I'm bound to ramble
I have no friends to help me now.

(chorus) He has no friends to help him now

It's fare thee well my old lover
I never expect to see you again
For I'm bound to ride that northern railroad
Perhaps I'll die upon this train.

(chorus) Perhaps he'll die upon this train.

You can bury me in some deep valley
For many years where I may lay
Then you may learn to love another
While I am sleeping in my grave.

(chorus) While he is sleeping in his grave.

Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger
My face you'll never see no more.
But there is one promise that is given
I'll meet you on God's golden shore.

(chorus) He'll meet you on God's golden shore.

hello ,hello,hello,how low
hello,hello, hello,how low
hello,hello,hello,how low

A mulatto,An albino,A mosquito
My libido
Yay,......yay



I'm worse at what I do best
And for this gift i feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end


And I forget just why I taste
Oh yeah,I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard its hard to find
Oh well,whatever, nevermind

hello ,hello,hello,how low?

So come an' take your time an' dance with me

He smiled so I got up and' asked for his name
That don't matter, he said,
'Cause it's all the same

Said can I take you home where we can be alone

An' next we were movin' on
He was with me, yeah me

Next we were movin' on
He was with me, yeah me, singin'

CAN'T YOU HEAR MY HEARTBEAT
Herman's Hermits


Every time I see you lookin' my way
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?
In the car or walking down the highway
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?

When you move up closer to me
I get a feelin' that's ooo-wee
Can't you hear the poundin' of my heartbeat
'cause you're the one I love, you're the one I love

When I feel you put your arms around me
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?
Then I'm glad, I'm mighty glad I found you
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?

When you asked me to meet your Man
I knew that baby, we'd be going far
Can't you hear the poundin' of my heartbeat?
'cause you're the one I love, you're the one I love

All my friends are cryin' out to meet you
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?
Now's the time to go and see the preacher
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?

Wedding bells are gonna chime
Baby, baby, you're gonna be mine
Can't you hear the poundin' of my heartbeat
'cause you're the one I love, you're the one I love

Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?
Baby, baby, can't you hear my heartbeat?

Captain of Her Heart
- Double

It was way past midnight
And she still couldn't fall asleep.
This night the dream was leaving
She tried so hard to keep.

And with the new day's dawning
She felt it drift away.
Not only for a cruise
not only for a day

Too long ago, too long apart
She couldn't wait another day for
The captain of her heart.

As the day came up, she made a stop.
She stopped waiting another day for
The captain of her heart.

Too long ago, too long apart
She couldn't wait another day for
The captain of her heart.

Too long ago, too long apart
She couldn't wait another day for
The captain of her heart.

As the day came up, she made a stop.
She stopped waiting another day for
The captain of her heart.

Too long ago, too long apart
She couldn't wait another day for
The captain of her heart.

Blue Eyes
- Elton John

Blue eyes baby's got blue eyes
Like a deep blue sea
On a blue blue day
Blue eyes baby's got blue eyes
When the morning comes
I'll be far away
And I say

Blue eyes holding back the tears
Holding back the pain
Baby's got blue eyes
And she's alone again

Blue eyes baby's got blue eyes
Like a clear blue sky
Watching over me
Blue eyes I love blue eyes
When I'm by her side
Where I long to be
I will see

Blue eyes laughing in the sun
Laughing in the rain
Baby's got blue eyes
And I am Home, and I am home again

Just for you, DevilMunchkin Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

Smells like Nirvana
Al Yankovic


What is this song all about?
Can't figure any lyrics out
How do the words to it go?
I wish you'd tell me, I don't know
Don't know, don't know, don't know, oh no
Don't know, don't know, don't know...

Now I'm mumblin' and I'm screamin'
And I don't know what I'm singin'
Crank the volume, ears are bleedin'
I still don't know what I'm singin'
We're so loud and incoherent
Boy, this oughta bug your parents
Yeah

It's unintel-ligible
I just can't get it through my skull
It's hard to bargle nawdle zouss(?)
With all these marbles in my mouth
Don't know, don't know, don't know, oh no
Don't know, don't know, don't know...

Well, we don't sound like Madonna
Here we are now, we're Nirvana
Sing distinctly? We don't wanna
Buy our album, we're Nirvana
A garage band from Seattle
Well, it sure beats raising cattle
Yeah

And I forgot the next verse
Oh well, I guess it pays to rehearse
The lyric sheet's so hard to find
What are the words? Oh, nevermind
Don't know, don't know, don't know, oh no
Don't know, don't know, don't know...

Well, I'm yellin' and we're playin'
But I don't know what I'm sayin'
What's the message I'm conveyin'?
Can you tell me what I'm sayin'?
So have you got some idea?
Didn't think so -- Well, I'll see ya
Sayonara, sayonara
Ayonawa, odinawa
Odinaya, yodinaya
Yaddayadda, yaaahyaaah
Ayaaaaaah!
