Imaani - Where Are You Now?

I see a picture in a frame
I see a face without a name
Riding alone on an empty train
Where are you

I live in a house of broken hearts
Leaves are falling in the park
Every day is a question mark
Where are you

I would drive through the rain (to find you)
Walk a desert plain (behind you)
You could unlock these chains (untie to)
Where are you now

Through the storm I call your name (to guide you)
Love could be the flame (beside you)
If you unlock these chains (untie to)
Where are you now

Lying in my room at night
Silhouettes are dressed in white
Waiting for the morning light
Where are you

Each day we live and learn
As the wheels of heaven turn
For you my candle burns
Where are you

I would drive through the rain (to find you)
Walk a desert plain (behind you)
You could unlock these chains (untie to)
Where are you now

Through the storm I call your name (to guide you)
Love could be the flame (beside you)
If you unlock these chains (untie to)
Where are you now

(So near) so near, (so far) so far
Out there, I can almost touch you
You're here in my mind all the time
Where are you now

(I would drive through the rain) to find you
Walk a desert plain (behind you)
You could unlock these chains (untie to)
Where are you now

Through the storm (through the storm) I call your name (to guide you)
Love could be the flame (beside you)
If you unlock these chains (untie to)
Where are you, where are you now

(I would drive through the rain) drive (to find you)
Walk a desert plain (behind you)
If you'd unlock these chains (untie to)
Where are you now?

Gin Blossoms Increase Your PM Length

ALLISON ROAD

I’ve lost my mind on what I’d find
And all of the pressure that I left behind
On Allison Road
Fools in the rain if the sun gets through
Fire’s in the heaven of the eyes I knew
On Allison Road
Dark clouds file in when the moon is near
Birds fly by A.M. in her bedroom stare
There was no tellin’ what I might find
I couldn’t see I was lost at the time...
Yeah I didn’t know I was lost at the time
On Allison Road
So she fills up her sails with my wasted breath
And each one’s more wasted than the other you can bet
On Allison Road
Now I can’t hide so why not drive
I know I want to love her but I can’t decide
On Allison Road
I didn’t know I was lost at the time
So I went looking for an exit sign
All I wanted to find tonight...

HEY JEALOUSY
Tell me do you think it’d be all right
If I could just crash here tonight
You can see I’m in no shape for driving
And anyway I’ve got no place to go
And you know it might not be that bad
You were the best I’d ever had
If I hadn’t blown the whole thing years ago
I might not be alone
Tomorrow we can drive around this town
And let the cops chase us around
The past is gone but something might be found
To take its place...hey jealousy
And you can trust me not to think
And not to sleep around
If you don’t expect too much from me
You might not be let down
Cause all I really want is to be with you
Feeling like I matter too
If I hadn’t blown the whole thing years ago
I might be here with you
Tomorrow we can drive around this town
And let the cops chase us around
The past is gone but something might be found
To take its place...hey jealousy
She took my heart
There’s only one thing I couldn’t start

FOUND OUT ABOUT YOU
All last summer in case you don’t recall
I was yours and you were mine forget it all
Is there a line that I could write
Sad enough to make you cry
All the lines you wrote to me were lies
The months roll past the love that you struck dead
Did you love me only in my head?
Things you said and did to me
Seemed to come so easily
The love I thought I’d won you give for free
Whispers at the bus stop
I heard about nights out in the school yard
I found out about you
Rumors follow everywhere you go
Like when you left and I was last to know
You’re famous now and there’s no doubt
In all the places you hang out
They know your name and know what you’re about
Whispers at the bus stop
I heard about nights out in the school yard
I found out about you
Street lights blink on through the car window
I get the time too often on AM radio
You know it’s all I think about
I write your name drive past your house
Your boyfriend’s over I watch your light go out
Whispers at the bus stop
I heard about nights out in the school yard
I found out about you

Filter - The Only Way (Is The Wrong Way)

Did you think that I'd disappear?
Did you think that I'd wash away?
Did you think that I'd last this long?
Did you think that I'd get this strong?

Everytime they try to make me change
they just wear me down with more chains

And it feels like
that you're with me or against me
and it feels like
that your promises are all mine
and it feels like
that to push me is to shove me
and it feels like
that the only way is the wrong way

Did you think that I'd could be your crutch
Did you think that life could mean so much
Did you think that this could end in birth?
Did you think that this was just plain old luck

and everytime they try to make me change
they just wear me down with more chains

And it feels like
that you're with me or against me
and it feels like
that your promises are all mine
and it feels like
that to push me is to shove me
and it feels like
that the only way is the wrong way

everytime they try to make me change
they just wear me down with more chains

And it feels like
that you're with me or against me
and it feels like
that your promises are all mine
and it feels like
that to push me is to shove me
and it feels like
that the only way is the wrong way

and it feels like
that the only way is the wrong way

and it feels like
that the only way is the wrong way

the only way is the wrong way
the only way is the wrong way

Red Water (christmas Mourning) by Type 0 negative

Wake up, it's Christmas mourn
Those loved have long since gone
The stocking are hung but who cares
Preserved for those no longer there
Six feet beneath me sleep

Black lights hang from the tree
Accents of dead holly

Whoa mistletoe
(It's growing cold)
I'm seeing ghost
(I'm drinking old)
Red water
Red water
Red water chase them away

My tables been set for but seven
Just last year I dined with eleven
God damn ye merry gentlemen

Whoa mistletoe
(It's growing cold)
I'm seeing ghosts
(I'm drinking old)
Red water
Red water
Red water chase them away.



Everything Dies by Type 0 Negative

Well i loved my aunt
but she died
And my uncle Lou,
Then he died
I'm searching for
something which can't
be found, but i'm hoping
I still dream of dad
though he died

Everythig dies

My ma's so sick,
she might die
Though my girls quite fit,
she will die
Still looking for someone
who was around,
barely coping
Now i hate myself,
wish i'd die

No, why? Oh God I miss you
No, why? Oh God I miss you
I really miss you

The Beautiful South - (Don't Take) The Slide

When you're too old for the swings
You tend to choose the slide
And they never seem to warn you
The slide's your final ride
And when you're at the top of it
And you cannot see the end
Either don't let go son - Or grab the nearest friend
The slide is no respecter of dignity or class
As soon as you sit down on it
The slide has got your ass


Don't take the slide, don't take the slide
Heroes and villains have tried and cried
A pile of broken souls at the bottom it denied
Dont take the slide, don't take the slide


When the slide was invented
A thousand drinkers sighed
They thought they had the copyright
Of the very word the slide
It's a picture of innocence
On which the innocent have fried
Take the helter skelter son
It's easier than the slide
Advice to listening parents
Or the father of the bride
Let them marry anyone
But don't let her take the slide


Don't take the slide, don't take the slide
Heroes and villains have tried and cried
A pile of broken souls at the bottom it denied
Dont take the slide, don't take the slide


It'll take much much lower
Than you ever would have asked
'Cause as soon as you sit down on it
The slide has got your ass - It's customers are fools
And every one of them deceased
The long and silver murderer
The Devil must have greased


Don't take the slide, don't take the slide
Heroes and villains have tried and cried
A pile of broken souls at the bottom it denied
Dont take the slide, don't take the slide

Labor Day; Dedicated To The American Work Force Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

40 Hour Week
Alabama



There are people in this country who work hard every day.
Not for fame or fortune do they strive.
But the fruits of their labor are worth more than their pay.
And it's time a few of them were recognized.

Hello Detroit auto workers,
let me thank you for your time.
You work a forty hour week for a livin',
just to send it on down the line.
Hello Pittsburgh steel mill workers,
let me thank you for your time.
You work a forty hour week for a livin',
just to send it on down the line.

This is for the one who swings the hammer,
driving home the nail.
Or the one behind the counter,
ringing up the sale.
Or the one who fights the fires,
the one who brings the mail.
For everyone who works behind the scenes.

You can see them every morning in the factories and the fields.
In the city streets and the quiet country towns.
Working together like spokes inside a wheel.
They keep this country turning around.

Hello Kansas wheat field farmer,
let me thank you for your time.
You work a forty hour week for a livin',
just to send it on down the line.
Hello West Virginia coal miner,
let me thank you for your time.
You work a forty hour week for a livin',
just to send it on down the line.

This one is for the one who drives the big rig,
up and down the road.
Or the one out in the warehouse,
bringing in the load.
Or the waitress, the mechanic,
the policeman on patrol.
For everyone who works behind the scenes.
With a spirit you can't replace with no machine.

Hello America - let me thank you for your time!

You'll Never Walk ALone



When you walk through a storm,
Hold your head up high,
And don't be afraid of the dark,
At the end of the storm, Is a golden sky,
And the sweet silver song of a lark,
Walk on through the wind,
Walk on through the rain,
Tho' your dreams be tossed and blown,
Walk on, Walk on,
With hope in your heart,
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never walk alone.

Born In Chicago


I was born in Chicago in nineteen and forty-one
I was born in Chicago in nineteen and forty-one
Well, my father told me, "Son, you had better get a gun"

Well, my first friend went down when I was seventeen years old
Well, my first friend went down when I was seventeen years old
Well, there's one thing I could say about that boy, "You gotta go"

Well, my second friend went down when I was twenty one years, baby
Well, my second friend went down when I was twenty one years, baby
Well, there's one thing I could say about that boy, "You got it babe"

Well, my blues are alright if there's someone left to play the game
Well, my blues are alright if there's someone left to play the game
All my friends are going and these years don't seem the same
Oh, they just don't seem the same, baby

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Blues With A Feeling


Blues with a feeling that's what I have today
Blues with a feeling that's what I have today
I've got to find my baby if it takes all night and day

What a lonesome feeling when you're by yourself
What a lonesome feeling when you're by yourself
Yes, the one that you're loving has gone off with someone else

Well, you know I love you baby
Wonder the reason why
Gone and left me baby
Left me here to cry

Blues with a feeling that's what I have today
Blues with a feeling that's what I have today
I've got to find my baby if it takes all night and day

What a lonesome feeling when you're by yourself
What a lonesome feeling when you're by yourself
Yeah, the one that you're loving has gone off with someone else

Well, you know I love you baby
Wonder the reason why
You're gone and left me baby
Left me here to cry

Blues with a feeling that's what I have today
I've got to find my baby if it takes all night and day

COOL CHANGE
Little River Band

If there's one thing in my life that's missing
It's the time that I spend alone
Sailing on the cool and bright clear water
Lots of those friendly people
And they're showing me ways to go
And I never want to lose their inspiration
It's time for a cool change
I know that it's time for a cool change
Now that my life is so prearranged
I know that it's time for a cool change

Well I was born in the sign of water
And it's there that I feel my best
The albatross and the whales they are my brothers
It's kind of a special feeling
When you're out on the sea alone
Staring at the full moon, like a lover
Time for a cool change
I know that it's time for a cool change
Now that my life is so prearranged
I know that it's time for a cool change

I've never been romantic
And sometimes I don't care
I know it may sound selfish
But let me breathe the air
Let me breathe the air...

If there's one thing in my life that's missing
It's the time that I spend alone
Sailing on the cool and bright clear water
It's kind of a special feeling
When you're out on the sea alone
Staring at the full moon, like a lover

Time for a cool change
I know that it's time for a cool change
Now that my life is so prearranged
I know that it's time for a cool change

Now it's time it's time it's time it's time
For a cool change
MMM MMM I know it's time for a cool change
Well, now that my life is so prearranged
I know I know I know I know
That it's time for a cool change
Yes it is, yes it is yes it is
Time for a cool change...

Kick me if I already posted this

Everclear - Wonderful

I close my eyes when I get too sad
I think thoughts that I know are bad
Close my eyes and I count to ten
Hope it's over when I open them
I want the things that I had before
Like a Star Wars poster on my bedroom door
I wish I could count to ten
Make everything be wonderful again

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

Close my eyes when I go to bed
And I dream of angels who make me smile
I feel better when I hear them say
Everything will be wonderful someday

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

Na na na na na na na

Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now

I go to school and I run and play
I tell the kids that it's all okay
I like to laugh so my friends won't know
When the bell rings I just don't wanna go home

Go to my room and I close my eyes
I make believe that I have a new life
I don't believe you when you say
Everything will be wonderful someday

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

I don't wanna hear you tell me everything is wonderful now

I don't wanna hear you say
That I will understand someday
No, no, no, no
I don't wanna hear you say
You both have grown in a different way
No, no, no, no
I don't wanna meet your friends
And I don't wanna start over again
I just wanna my life to be the same
Just like it used to be
Somedays I hate everything
I hate everything
Everyone and everything
Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now

I don't wanna hear you tell me everything is wonderful now

I'm Over You by Dave MAtthews Band

When was the point that you showed-
Move on to another love
Laughing with kindness
When did you decide to break
How much more will it take for two people to be happy?
But you lied
Looked me straight in the eye
As if you had nothing to hide
With no shame
As if we were still the same
But now I'm back in the game
I'm over you

When did you decide to go?
Were you ever going to let me know?
I was deciding
When did you decide to change?
What did I do that made our situation weary?

When you lied
You looked me straight in the eye
As if you had nothng to hide
With no shame
As if we still were the same
But now im back in the game
I'm over you

Who was the one to tell?
I thought I knew you way too well
But I didn't
The thought of you thinking of him
Assumptions made on a whim
Drives me crazy

'Cause you lied
Looked me staight in the eye
As if you had nothing to hide
(But I know you did)
With no shame
As if we still were the same
But now I"m back in the game
I'm Over you

Hell Freezes Over by Disturbed

Step up cause you're the next one in line for the kill
you dont believe me but im betting that you will.
Step up, i'll let you live a little bit with the pain that i bring
you know its only the beginning

Im breaking the living inside you
Something and someone to hide you

Dont Run away, Bring it on straight to me

Crimson and Clover by TOmmy James

Now, I don't hardly know her,
But, think I could love her
Crimson and clover.
I wish she'd come walking over, I'm waiting to show her,

Crimson and clover
Over and over

Yes, my, my, such a sweet thing,
I wanna do everything,
What a beautiful feeling.

Crimson and clover
Over and over

very important song..expresses what i feel right NOW Inflate your Upload Space

GET OVER IT by the eagles

I turn on the tube and what do I see
A whole lotta people cryin' 'Don't blame me'
They point their crooked little fingers ar everybody else
Spend all their time feelin' sorry for themselves
Victim of this, victim of that
Your momma's too thin; your daddy's too fat

Get over it
Get over it
All this whinin' and cryin' and pitchin' a fit
Get over it, get over it

You say you haven't been the same since you had your little crash
But you might feel better if I gave you some cash
The more I think about it, Old Billy was right
Let's kill all the lawyers, kill 'em tonight
You don't want to work, you want to live like a king
But the big, bad world doesn't owe you a thing

Get over it
Get over it
If you don't want to play, then you might as well split
Get over it, Get over it

It's like going to confession every time I hear you speak
You're makin' the most of your losin' streak
Some call it sick, but I call it weak

You drag it around like a ball and chain
You wallow in the guilt; you wallow in the pain
You wave it like a flag, you wear it like a crown
Got your mind in the gutter, bringin' everybody down
Complain about the present and blame it on the past
I'd like to find your inner child and kick its little ass

Get over it
Get over it
All this *****in' and moanin' and pitchin' a fit
Get over it, get over it

Get over it
Get over it
It's gotta stop sometime, so why don't you quit
Get over it, get over it

Poly meet? I'm uninformed, again. In the dark. A lost lamb.

Let My Love Open The Door
Pete Townshend



When people keep repeating
That you'll never fall in love
When everybody keeps retreating
But you can't seem to get enough

Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
To your heart

When everything feels all over
When everybody seems unkind
I'll give you a four leaf clover
Take all the worry out of your mind

Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
To your heart

I have the only key to your heart
I can stop you falling apart
Try today, you'll find this way
Come on and give me a chance to say
Let my love open the door
It's all I'm living for
Release yourself from misery
There's only one thing gonna set you free
That's my love

Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
To your heart

When tragedy befalls you
Don't let it drag you down
Love can cure your problems
You're so lucky I'm around

Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
To your heart

Jo Dee Messina

Bring on the Rain


Another day has almost come and gone
Can't imagine what else could wrong
Sometimes I'd like to hide away somewhere and lock the door
A single battle lost but not the war ('cause)

Tomorrow's another day
And I'm thirsty anyway
So bring on the rain

It's almost like the hard times circle 'round
A couple drops and they all start coming down
Yeah, I might feel defeated,
I might hang my head
I might be barely breathing - but I'm not dead

Tomorrow's another day
And I'm thirsty anyway
So bring on the rain

I'm not gonna let it get me down
I'm not gonna cry
And I'm not gonna lose any sleep tonight


---------------------------------------------------------
That's the Way


Everybody wants an easy ride on the merry-go-round that we call life
Take a drive on cruise control, then you wake to find it's a winding road
I had my dreams in view when the money ran out and the engine blew
Hung my tears out to dry, then my dreams fell outta the clear blue sky
And I, I was walking in the clouds feeling so safe and sound
'Til something else knocks me down

Oh and that's the way it is
You gotta roll with the punches
Oh and that's the way it goes
You gotta bend when the wind blows
You live, you learn
You crash, you burn
It's hit or miss
And that's the way it is

One fine day you wake up, completely, hopelessly fallen in love
He's just what you're looking for, the only problem is that the man's not sure
Another guy will give you everything, the only problem is you don't feel a thing
Well I know from experience, nothing's ever gonna make perfect sense
Oh, one day you get what you want, but it's not what you think, then you get what you need

Oh and that's the way it is

You gotta roll with the punches
Oh and that's the way it goes
You gotta bend when the wind blows
You live, you learn
You crash, you burn
It's hit or miss
And that's the way it is

Yea

They say your soul is growing
But sometimes I feel like throwing something
And that's the way it is
You gotta roll with the punches
And that's the way it goes
You gotta bend when the wind blows

Oh and that's the way it is
You gotta roll with the punches
Oh and that's the way it goes
You gotta bend when the wind blows
You live, you learn
You crash, you burn
And that's the way it is

Old Time Rock & Roll
Bob Seger

Just take those old records off the shelf,
I'll sit and listen to 'em by myself,
Today's music ain't got the same soul,
I like that old time rock and roll.

Don't try and take me to a disco,
You'll never even get me out on the floor,
In ten minutes I'll be late for the door,
I like that old time rock and roll.

Still like that old time rock and roll,
That kind of music just soothes my soul,
I reminisce about the days of old,
With that old time rock and roll.

Won't go and hear 'em play a tango,
I'd rather hear some blues or funky old soul,
There's only one sure way to get me to go,
Start playin' old time rock and roll.

Still like that old time rock and roll,
That kind of music just soothes my soul,
I reminisce about the days of old,
With that old time rock and roll.

Call me a relic call me what you will,
Say I'm old fashioned say I'm over the hill.
Today's music ain't got the same soul,
I like that old time rock and roll.

Still like that old time rock and roll,
That kind of music just soothes my soul,
I reminisce about the days of old,
With that old time rock and roll.

Sentimental Lady
Fleetwood Mac
( Welch, Bob )

You are here and warm
But I could look away and you'd be gone
Cause we live in a time
When meaning falls in splinters from our lives
And that's why I've travelled far
Cause I come so together where you are

And all of the things that I said that I wanted
Come rushing by in my head when I'm with you
14 joys and a will to be merry
And all of the things that we say are very
Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental Lady
Gentle one

Now you are here today
But easily you might just go away
Cause we live in a time
When paintings have no color, words don't rhyme
And that's why I've travelled far
Cause I come so together where you are

And all of the things that I said that I wanted
Come rushing by in my head when I'm with you
14 joys and a will to be merry
And all of the things that we say are very
Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental Lady
Gentle one

You are here and warm
But I could look away and you'd be gone
Cause we live in a time
When meaning falls in splinters from our lives
And that's why I've travelled far
Cause I come so together where you are

Yes and all of the things that I said that I wanted
Come rushing by in my head when I'm with you
14 joys and a will to be merry
And all of the things that we say are very
Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental Lady
Gentle one

Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental Lady
Gentle one

Sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again
Sentimental Lady
Gentle one

Well sentimental gentle wind
Blowing through my life again

Triple Shot Thursday; Ringo Starr, The OTHER Beatle Support Apolyton

You're Sixteen
Johnny Burnette
(cover by Ringo Starr)

You come on like a dream, peaches and cream
Lips like strawberry wine
You're sixteen, you're beautiful and you're mine

You're all ribbons and curls, ooh what a girl
Eyes that sparkle and shine
You're sixteen, you're beautiful and you're mine

You're my baby, you're my pet
We fell in love on the night we met
You touched my hand, my heart went pop
Ooh, when we kissed I could not stop

You walked out of my dreams and into my arms
Now you're my angel divine
You're sixteen, you're beautiful and you're mine

You're my baby, you're my pet
We fell in love on the night we met
You touched my hand, my heart went pop
Ooh, when we kissed I could not stop

You walked out of my dreams, and into my car
Now you're my angel divine
You're sixteen, you're beautiful, and you're mine

---------------------------------------------------------------

A Dose Of Rock 'N' Roll
Ringo Starr
(Carl Grossman)

Y'r feelin' down
Y'r feelin' blue
Y' do know that y' care but y'dunno what to do

If your mamma don't feel good
Or your daddy don't feel good
Take a dose of rock 'n' roll
And wash it down with cool clear soul

Y' better get y'r ripple soles out
Ease out all your mean controls
Take a dose of rock 'n' roll
And wash it down with cool clear soul

Turn on your radio
Start dancin' to the moon
The old heart radio is gonna
Get y', get y', get y', in the mood

----------------------------------------------------------------

It Don't Come Easy
Ringo Starr

It don't come easy
You know it don't come easy
It don't come easy
You know it don't come easy


Got to pay your dues if you want to sing the blues
And you know it don't come easy
You don't have to shout or leap about
You can even play them easy
Forget about the past and all your sorrow
The future won't last
It will soon by your tomorrow


I don't ask for much
I only want trust
And you know it don't come easy
And this love of mine keeps growing all the time
And you know it just ain't easy
Open up your heart
Let's come together
Use a little luck
And we will make it work out better

Got to pay your dues if you want to sing the blues
And you know it don't come easy
You don't have to shout or leap about
You can even play them easy
Please remember peace is how we make it
Here within your reach
If you're big enough to take it

I don't ask for much
I only want trust
And you know it don't come easy
And this love of mine keeps growing all the time
And you know it don't come easy

Increase Your PM Length

Only in America
by Brooks and Dunn

Sun coming up over New York City
School bus driver in a traffic jam
Starin' at the faces in her rearview mirror
Looking at the promise of the Promised Land
One kid dreams of fame and fortune
One kid helps pay the rent
One could end up going to prison
One just might be president

Only in America
Dreaming in red, white and blue
Only in America
Where we dream as big as we want to
We all get a chance
Everybody gets to dance
Only in America

Sun going down on an La. freeway
Newlyweds in the back of a limousine
A welder's son and a banker's daughter
All they want is everything
She came out here to be an actress
He was the singer in a band
They just might go back to Oklahoma
And talk about the stars they could have been

Chorus

Only in America
Where we dream in red, white and blue
Only in America
Where we dream as big as we want to
We all get a chance
Everybody gets to dance
Only in America

Yeah only in America
Where we dream in red, white and blue
Yeah we dream as big as we want to

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

Ain't Nothing 'Bout You
by Brooks and Dunn

Once I thought that love was something I could never do
Never knew that I could feel this much
But this yearning in the deep part of my heart for you
Is more than a reaction to your touch
It's a perfect passion and I can't get enough

The way you look, the way you laugh,
The way you love with all you have,
There ain't nothing bout you that don't do something for me
The way you kiss, The way you cry,
The way you move when you walk by
There's ain't nothing bout you (there ain't nothing bout you)
That don't do something for me

In my life I've been hammered by some heavy blows
That never knocked me off my feet
All you gotta do is smile at me and down I go
And baby it's no mystery why I surrender
Girl you got everything

The way you look, the way you laugh,
The way you love with all you have,
There ain't nothing bout you that don't do something for me
The way you kiss, The way you cry,
The way you move when you walk by
There's ain't nothing bout you (there ain't nothing bout you)
That don't do something for me

I love your attitude, your rose tattoo, your every thought
Your smile, you lips and girl the list goes on and on and on

The way you look, the way you laugh,
The way you love with all you have,
There ain't nothing bout you that don't do something for me
The way you kiss, The way you cry,
The way you move when you walk by
There's ain't nothing bout you (there ain't nothing bout you)
That don't do something for me

The way you look, the way you laugh,
The way you love with all you have,
Your dance, your drive, You make me feel alive

The way you talk, the way you tease
Right now I think you see
There ain't nothing bout you that don't do something for me

If you're going to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair

You're gonna meet some gentle people there

For those who come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there
In the streets of San Francisco
Gentle people with flowers in their hair

All across the nation such a strange vibration
People in motion
There's a whole generation with a new explanation
People in motion people in motion

For those who come to San Francisco

America Will Always Stand
by Randy Travis

She stands in the face of evil
and will not lose hope or faith
America, the land of freedom
Still the home of the brave.

Chorus
So raise the banner, called Old Glory
Let us join our fellow man
History will tell the story,
America will always stand.

Walking through the fires of danger
There are those who gave their lives
They're the world's greatest heroes,
And we won't forget their sacrifice.

(Chorus):
So raise the banner, called Old Glory
Let us join our fellow man
History will tell the story,
America will always stand.

America is not divided
Our enemies they will be stopped.
'Cause, we the people are united
And still, one nation Under God.

(Chorus):
So raise the banner, called Old Glory
Let us join our fellow man
History will tell the story,
America will always stand.

If I Didn't Have You
by Randy Travis

Well I lost my heart on the day we met
But I gained a lot that I don't regret
Then I hung around till you said I do
I knew I wouldn't have nothin'
If I didn't have you

Well it changed my thinking
When you changed your name
And neither one of us will ever be the same
And I swear I'm never gonna be untrue
'Cause I wouldn't have nothin'
If I didn't have you

Chorus:
If I didn't have you I'd long ago
Been left in the dark out in the cold
Blowing around from town to town
Like a feather in the wind
If I didn't have you I know I'd be
Floundering around like a ship at sea
Lost in the rain of a hurricane
That's where I'd have been

But I didn't get lost 'cause I saw your light
Shining like a beacon on a cold dark night
And the sun came up and the skies turned blue
No I wouldn't have nothing
If I didn't have you

Well I count my blessings every night I pray
That the Lord lets me keep you just one more day
And every day He does 'cause God knows too
That I wouldn't have nothing
If I didn't have you

Chorus

But I didn't get lost 'cause I saw your light
Shining like a beacon on a cold dark night
And the sun came up and the skies turned blue
No I wouldn't have nothing
If I didn't have you

Well I've already said it but I swear it's true
I know I wouldn't have nothing
If I didn't have you

Heaven Beside You by ALice in CHains

Be what you wanna be
See what you came to see
Been what you wanna be
I don't like what I see

Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you... Hell within
Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you... Hell within
Like the coldest winter will
Heaven beside you... Hell within
And you think you have it still, heaven inside you

So there's problems in your life
That's ****ed up, and I'm not blind
I'm just see through faded, super jaded
And out of my mind

Do what you wanna do
Go out and seek your truth
When I'm down and blue
Rather be me than you

Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you... Hell within
Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you... Hell within
Like the coldest winter will
Heaven beside you... Hell within
And you wish you had it still, heaven inside you

So there's problems in your life
That's ****ed up, and I'm not blind
I'm just see through faded, super jaded
And out of my mind

Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you... Hell within
Like the coldest winter chill
Heaven beside you... Hell within
Like the coldest winter will
Heaven beside you... Hell within
And you know you have it still, heaven inside you

So there's problems in your life
That's ****ed up, but You're not blind
You're just see through faded, overrated
And out of your mind

Bad Religion - Part II (The Numbers Game)

it's superficial progress,
they call it liberation with
opiates of silicon big brother schemes to rule the nation,
we're one nation under god,
we stand above the rest,
with mighty high technology,
we're never second best,
our specialty is infiltration!
so pack your bags you third world nation,
victory through domination!
the trepidations throngs all fear the big eye in the sky,
the government observes them with their own electric eye
automatons, illiterates and indigents of every shape and size,
don't stop but aid this cruel crusade
participate in their own demise...
prepare yourself for subjugation,
victory through domination!

Bad Religion - American Jesus

I don't need to be a global citizen,
because I'm blessed by nationality,
I'm a member of a growing populace,
we enforced our popularity
there are things that seem to pull us under
and there are things that drag us down,
but there's a power and a vital presence
that's lurking all around
we've got the american jesus
see him on the interstate,
we've got the american jesus
he helped build the president's estate

I feel sorry for the earth's population
cuz so few live in the u.s.a,
at least the foreigners can copy our morality,
they can visit but they cannot stay,
only precious few can garner our prosperity,
it makes us walkwith renewed confidence,
we've got a place to go when we die
and the architect resides right here
we've got the american jesus
see him on the interstate,
we've got the american jesus
overwhelming millions every day

he's the farmer barren fields, (in god)
the force the army wields, (we trust)
the expression in the faces (because he's one of us)
of the starving children,
the power of the man (break down)
he's the fuel that drives the clan, (cave in)
he's the motive and the conscience (we can redeem your sins)
of the murderer
he's the preacher on tv, (strong heart)
the false sincerity, (clear mind)
the form letters that written by (and infinetly kind)
the big computers,
he's the nuclear bombs, (you lose)
and the kids with no moms (we win)
and I'm fearful that (he is our champion)
he's inside me

Bad Religion - The State Of The End Of The Millennium Address

neighbors, nobody loves you like we do
neighbors, your government has
triumphed in finally making you a public fit for the 21st century
never before has a governing body shown so much concern
for the economic well-being of its subjects
today we have insulated you from countless
factions who threaten your financial viability; such as the poor;
the idealistic foreigners still clinging to their childish notions of social welfare;
why, you're even kept uninformed of useless propagandist
journalism that reports alleged violations of human rights
(we all know they wouldn't have been punished if they hadn't been doing something wrong!!)
and who better to dispense such blatantly evident factoids but
a self-appointed authority like myself?
acid rain is a thing of the past... too many possible causes, too
little significance for our modern thinking public, besides industrial
manufacturing is at an all-time low anyway, who needs those narrow
minded laborers anyway, too many mouths to feed,
and too much burden on the payroll!
who needs 'em here in the land of the free time
some other ass-backward country will give us
what we need by exploiting its uneducated children
the internet has expanded our ability to pacify average americans better
than ever by offering fantastical adventures
to every corner of the imagination
your home office is the window to your world,
and the heart of your social life
such reclusive behavior helps clear the roads and
public works from overburden like the lower middle class
and others who depend shamelessly on their government
today you are freer than ever to
do what you want, provided you can pay for it!
remember, the first word in usa is us!
we have arrived, neighbors, we are the privileged elite!

Slow down, you move too fast.
You got to make the morning last.
Just kicking down the cobble stones.
Looking for fun and feelin' groovy.

Hello lamppost, Whatcha knowin'?
I've come to watch your flowers growin'.
Ain't cha got no rhymes for me?
Doot-in' doo-doo, Feelin' groovy.

Got no deeds to do, No promises to keep.

Let the morning time drop all its petals on me.

TWILIGHT ZONE
Golden Earring


Somewhere in a lonely hotel room
there's a guy starting to realize that eternal
fate has turned its back on him. It's 2 a.m.

It's two a.m.
The fear has gone
I'm sitting her waitin'
The gun's still warm
Maybe my connection is tired of taking chances
Yeah there's a storm on the loose
Sirens in my head
Wrapped up in silence
All circuits are dead
Cannot decode my whole life spins into a frenzy

Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse
Feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved
Under moon and star
Where am I to go
Now that I've gone too far
(repeat)
Soon you will come to know
When the bullet hits the bone
Soon you will come to know
When the bullet hits the bone

I'm falling down a spiral
Destination unknown
Double crossed messenger, all alone
Can't get no connection
Can't get through where are you

Well the night weighs heavy
On his guilty mind
This far from the borderline
When the hitman comes
He knows damn well
He has been cheated And he says
(repeat Chorus)

if you twist and turn away
if you tear yearself in two again
if i could
you know i would
if i could
you know i would let it go

surrender
disclocate

if i could throw this lifeless lifeline to the wind
leave this heart of clay
see you walk, walk away
into the light
through the rain
into the half life
through the flame

if i could through myself
set your spirit free
i'd leave your heart away
see oyu break, break away
into the night
through the day

So let it go
And so fade away
Let it go
And so fade away
Wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake, I'm not sleeping
I'm not sleeping

If they should ask
well maybe they tell you what I should say
true colors fly
in blue and black
through silken sky
and burning flak
colors crush
in light of the rush

if i could
you know i would
if i could
i would let it go

desperation

condenation

let it go
and so fade away
let it go

"Amendment-to-Be" *spoken portions removed


I'm an amendment to be
Yes, an amendment to be
And I'm hoping that they'll ratify me
There's a lot of flag burners
Who have got too much freedom
I wanna make it legal
For policemen
To beat 'em
'Cause there's limits to our liberties
'Least I hope and pray that there are
'Cause those liberal freaks go too far.

Then I'll destroy all opposition to me
And I'll make Ted Kennedy pay
If he fights back
I'll say that he's gay
