Uh huh. Latest &quot;Songs In The Key Of Life&quot; Threads Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

I'll open this thread with the same song as the others.


It's In The Way That You Use It
by Eric Clapton and Peter Robertson


It's in the way that you use it,
It comes and it goes.
It's in the way that you use it,
Boy don't you know.


And if you lie you will lose it,
Feelings will show.
So don't you ever abuse it,
Don't let it go.


Nobody's right till somebody's wrong.
Nobody's weak till somebody's strong.
No one gets lucky till luck comes along.
Nobody's lonely till somebody's gone.


Repeat First Chorus


Repeat First Chorus


Repeat Second Chorus


I've seen dark skies, never like this.
Walked on some thin ice, never like this.
I've told you white lies, never like this.
Looked into true eyes, never like this.


Repeat First Chorus

Silver Springs
(Stevie Nicks)
Fleetwood Mac


You could be my silver spring
Blue-green colors flashing
I would be your only dream
Your shining over ocean crashing

Don't say that she's pretty
And did you say that she loved you
Baby I don't want to know

So I begin not to love you
Turn 'round, see me running
I say I loved you years ago
But tell myself you never loved me no

And don't say that she's pretty
And did you say that she loved you
Baby I don't want to know

Oh no
And can you tell me was it worth it
Baby I don't want to know

Time cast a spell on you
But you won't forget me
I know I could have loved you
But you would not let me

Time cast a spell on you
But you won't forget me
I know I could have loved you
But you would not let me

I follow you down 'till the sound
Of my voice will haunt you
(Give me just a chance)
You'll never get away from the sound
Of the woman who loves you
(Was I just a fool)

I follow you down 'till the sound
Of my voice will haunt you
(Give me just a chance)
You'll never get away from the sound
Of the woman who loves you
(Was I just a fool)

I'm Just A Singer (In A Rock 'n' Roll Band)
The Moody Blues

I keep on wand'ring on the face of this earth
Meeting so many people who are trying to be free
And while I wander I hear so many words
Language barriers broken now we've found the key

And if you want this world of yours to turn about you
And you're the only other person to know
Don't tell me
I'm Just a Singer in a Rock 'n' Roll Band

How can we understand
Riots for the people by the people who are only destroying themselves
And if you see a frightened person who is frightened by the people
Who are (scorching) scorching this earth
(Scorching) scorching this earth

I keep on wan'dring on the face of this earth
Meeting so many people who are trying to be free
And while I wander I hear so many words
Language barriers broken now we've found the key

And if you want the wind of change to blow around you
And you can see exactly what to do
Please tell me
I'm Just a Singer in a Rock 'n' Roll Band

How can we understand
Riots for the people by the people who are only destroying themselves
And if you see a frightened person who is frightened by the people
Who are (scorching) scorching this earth
(Scorching) scorching this earth

Music is the traveller crossing our world
Meeting so many people, bridging the seas
I'm Just a Singer in a Rock 'n' Roll Band (2x)
Music is the traveller crossing our world
Meeting so many people, bridging the seas
I'm Just the Singer in a Rock 'n' Roll Band
We're just the singers in a rock 'n' roll band

Landslide
Stevie Nicks 1975



I took my love, I took it down
Climbed a mountain and I turned around
I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
'Till the landslide brought me down

Oh, mirror in the sky
What is love
Can the child within my heart rise above
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life

Well, I've been afraid of changing
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you get bolder
Even children get older
And I'm getting older too

Oh, take my love, take it down
Climb a mountain and turn around
If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide will bring it down

If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide will bring it down.

Yay Sloww! I sat there all through my free period going 'damnit, why isn't he online? Why hasn't he started the new thread yet? Damnit!'

As always, love&peace to everyone who reads this thread.


Tracy Chapman - Subcity

People say it doesn't exist
'Cause no one would like to admit
That there is a city underground
Where people live everyday
Off the waste and decay
Off the discards of their fellow man

Here in subcity life is hard
We can't receive any government relief
I'd like to please give Mr. President my honest regards
For disregarding me

They say there's too much crime in these city streets
My sentiments exactly
Government and big business hold the purse strings
When I worked I worked in the factories
I'm at the mercy of the world
I guess I'm lucky to be alive

Here in subcity life is hard
We can't receive any government relief
I'd like to please give Mr. President my honest regards
For disregarding me

They say we've fallen through the cracks
They say the system works
But we won't let it
Help
I guess they never stop to think
We might not just want handouts
But a way to make an honest living
Living this ain't living

What did I do deserve this
Had my trust in god
Worked everyday of my life
Thought I had some guarantees
That's what I thought
At least that's what I thought

Here in subcity life is hard
We can't receive any government relief
I'd like to please give Mr. President my honest regards
For disregarding me

Last night I had another restless sleep
Wondering what tomorrow might bring
Last night I dreamed
A cold blue light was shining down on me
I screamed myself awake
Thought I must be dying
Thought I must be dying

nine inch nails, the great below.

staring at the sea
will she come?
is there hope for me
after all is said and done

anything at any price
all of this for you
all the spoils of a wasted life
all of this for you

all the world has closed her eyes
tired faith all worn and thin
for all we could have done
and all that could have been

ocean pulls me close
and whispers in my ear
the destiny i've chose
all becoming clear

the currents have their say
the time is drawing near
washes me away
makes me disappear

and i descend from grace
in arms of undertow
i will take my place
in the great below

i can still feel you
even so far away

To my surprise, and my daylight,
I saw sun rise, I saw sunlight,
I am nothing, in the dark,
And the clouds burst to show a daylight,
Oooooo and the sun shines, Yeaaahhh on this star of mine,
Oooooo and I realise, Oooooo couldn't live without,
Oooooo couldn't part without it

On a hill top, on a sky rise,
Like a first born, child,
At a full tilt, and at full flight
You see darkness, in the daylight

Oooooo and the sun shines, Yeaaahhh on this star of mine,
Oooooo and I realise, Oooooo couldn't be without,
Oooooo couldn't part without, daylight

Slowly breaking through the daylight (x22 to fade)

U2 - Walk On
Dedicated to Aung San Suu Kyi, rightful Prime Minister of Burma

And if the darkness is to keep us apart
And if the daylight feels like
It's a long way off
And if your glass heart should crack
And for a second you turn back
Oh no, be strong (oh ho)

Walk on, walk on
What you got they can't steal it
No they can't even feel it
Walk on, walk on
Stay safe tonight

You're packing a suitcase
For a place none of us has been
A place that has to be believed
To be seen
You could have flown away
A singing bird in an open cage
Who will only fly
Only fly for freedom

Walk on, walk on
What you've got they can't deny it
Can't sell it, or buy it
Walk on, walk on
Stay safe tonight

I know it aches
Your heart it breaks
You can only take so much
Walk on, walk on

Leave it behind
You got to leave it behind
All that you fashion
All that you make
All that you build
And all that you break
All that you measure
All that you deal
What you count on two fingers
And all that you steal
You've got to leave it behind...

Elton John
I guess thats why they call it the blues

Don't wish it away
Don't look at it like it's forever
Between you and me I could honestly say
That things can only get better

And while I'm away
Dust out the demons inside
And it won't be long before you and me run
To the place in our hearts where we hide


And I guess that's why they call it the blues
Time on my hands could be time spent with you
Laughing like children, living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess that's why they call it the blues


Just stare into space
Picture my face in your hands
Live for each second without hesitation
And never forget I'm your man


Wait on me girl
Cry in the night if it helps
But more than ever I simply love you
More than I love life itself

Magazine: The Light Pours Out of Me


Time flies
time crawls
like an insect
up and down the walls

The light pours out of me
the light pours out of me

The conspiracy
of silence ought
to revolutionise
my thought

The light pours out of me ...


The cold light of day
pours out of me
leaving me black
and so healthy

The light pours out of me ...

It jerks out of me
like blood
in this still life
heart beats up love

The light pours out of me ...

moody blues

So Deep Within You

Talk to me baby, I want to sleep at night
My heart is heavy, it's weighed down by the night.
And now I'm lonely, I want to see the light
So deep within you.

Cool wind is blowing through your crazy hair.
Warm colours flowing, this feeling we have shared.
And now I'm lonely I want tofeel the love
So deep within you.

Your love's a never-ending dream
A castle by a stream of sweet understanding
I know you're thinking of me too, the messages
>From you are my inspiration.

Love's incense lingers, it never fades away.
Like you I'm waiting for our special day.
And now I'm lonely I want to feelthe love
So deep within you

My love is burning, like a forest fire
My heart is yearning, I feel a warm desire.
And now I'm lonely I want to touch the fire
So deep within you.


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

The Story In Your Eyes


I've been thinking about our fortune,
And I've decided that we're really not to blame
For the love that's deep inside us now
Is still the same

And the sound we make together
Is the music to the story in your eyes
It's been shining down upon me now
I realize

Listen to the tide slowly turning
Wash all our heartaches away
We are part of the fire that is burning
And from the ashes we can build another day

But I'm frightened for your children
And the life that we are living is in vain
And the sunshine we've been waiting for
Will turn to rain

When the final line is over
And it's certain that the curtain's gonna fall
I can hide inside your sweet sweet love
For ever more

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

The Day We Meet Again


The day we meet again,
I'll be waiting there,
I'll be waiting there for you.
'Cause the years have been so lonely,
Like a dog without a home.
It's dangerous when you find out,
You've been drinking on your own.

The day we meet again,
We will walk in peace,
Through the garden down the road.
Where the mist of time is lifting,
See it rising in the air.
Like a shadow I was chasing,
When I looked it wasn't there.
Oh no.

Just in case you're wondering,
What was really on my mind.
It wasn't what you took, my love,
It's what you left behind.

And just in case you're wondering,
Will it really be the same?
Will it really be the same?
You know we're only living for,
The day we meet again.

So hold on, and don't let go, Hold... On... Don't...
Time heals, you know, I know. Time... Heals... You know...

The day we meet again,
I'll be waiting there,
I'll be waiting there for you.
'Cause the years have been so lonely,
Like a dog without a home.
It's dangerous when you find out,
You've been drinking on your own.

The day we meet again,
We will walk in peace,
Through the garden down the road.
When the mist of time is lifting,
See it rising in the air.
Like the shadow I was chasing,
When I looked, oh no, it wasn't there.
Oh no, it wasn't there,
It wasn't there. Hold on baby don't let go.

It wasn't there.
Oh no, oh no, oh no.
Come on baby, never let go,
Come on baby, never let go.

I know the song is about something different, but it still seemed funny to me.

Seal - Kiss From a Rose

There used to be a greying tower alone on the sea.
You became the light on the dark side of me.
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill.

But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and
The light that you shine can be seen.

Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh,
The more I get of you,
Stranger it feels, yeah.
And now that your rose is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the grey.

There is so much a man can tell you,
So much he can say.
You remain,
My power, my pleasure, my pain, baby
To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny.
Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby?

But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen.

Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh, the more I get of you
Stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the grey,

I've been kissed by a rose on the grey,
I've been kissed by a rose
I've been kissed by a rose on the grey,
...And if I should fall along the way
I've been kissed by a rose
...been kissed by a rose on the grey.

There is so much a man can tell you,
So much he can say.
You remain
My power, my pleasure, my pain.
To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny, yeah
Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby.

But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen.

Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh, the more I get of you
Stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the grey.
Yes I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey
Ooh, the more I get of you
Stranger it feels, yeah
And now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the grey
Now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the grey.

Fine Again by Seether

It seems like every day’s the same
And I’m left to discover on my own
It seems like everything is gray
And there’s no color to behold
They say it’s over and I’m fine again, yeah
Try to stay sober feels like I’m dying here

And I am aware now of how
Everything’s gonna be fine one day
Too late, I’m in hell I am prepared now
Seems everyone’s gonna be fine
One day too late, just as well

I feel the dream in me expire
And there’s no one left to blame it on
I hear you label me a liar
Cuz I can’t seem to get this through
You say it’s over, I can sigh again, yeah
Why try to stay sober when I’m dying here

And I am aware now of how
Everything’s gonna be fine one day
Too late, I’m in hell
I am prepared now
Seems everyone’s gonna be fine
One day too late, just as well

And I’m not scared now
I must assure you
you’re never gonna get away
And I’m not scared now
And I’m not scared now, now

I am aware now of how
Everything’s gonna be fine one day
Too late, I’m in hell
I am prepared now
seems everyone’s gonna be fine
One day too late, just as well
I am prepared now
Seems everything’s gonna be fine for me
For me, for myself
For me, for me, for myself
For me, for me, for myself
I am prepared now for myself
I am prepared now
And I am fine again

Walk Away Renee

And when I see the sign that points one way
The lot we used to pass by every day
Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same
You're not to blame

From deep inside the tears I'm forced to cry
From deep inside the pain I chose to hide
Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes
For me it cries

Your name and mine inside a heart upon a wall
Still find a way to haunt me though they're so small
Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes
For me it cries
Just walk away Renee
You won't see me follow you back home
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same
You're not to blame


The End of the World

Why does the sun go on shining?
Why does the sea rush to shore?
Don't they know it's the end of the world
'Cause you don't love me anymore?

Why do the birds go on singing?
Why do the stars glow above?
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when I lost your love.

I wake up in the morning and I wonder
Why ev'rything's the same as it was.
I can't understand, no I can't understand
How life goes on the way it does

Why does my heart go on beating?
Why do these eyes of mine cry?
Don't they know know it's the end of the world?
It ended when you said goodbye
Don't they know know it's the end of the world?
It ended when you said goodbye...

Man. Clear Skies knows the routine.

devilmunchkin, if I had known from the beginning the thread would be perpetual, I'd have kept a good count.
At 500 posts per thread, I'd guesstimate what, about a dozen threads? So 6000 posts? Maybe more. And many times, multiple songs per post.
So we'll say this is the 13th installment, and I'll keep track from there.
BTW, I only start the threads. It's you and the other contributors that have kept the thing alive.

Juggernaut, I've been known to just mumble or write "uh-huh" if I don't feel like answering something.
Actually, I don't know why I included in first thread title, but it's remained.



Theme For An Imaginary Western

When the wagons leave the city
for the forest, and further on
Painted wagons of the morning
dusty roads where they have gone
Sometimes travelling through the darkness
met the summer coming home
Fallen faces by the wayside
Looked as if they might have known
O the sun was in their eyes
and the desert that dries
In the country towns
where the laughter sounds

O the dancing and the singing
O the music when they played
O the fires that they started
O the girls with no regret
Sometimes they found it
Sometimes they kept it
Often lost it on the way
Fought each other to possess it
Sometimes died in sight of day

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

Never Tell Your Mother She's Out Of Tune


When I hear that big black whistle they blow
I feel inside it's time for me to be going
Fortunately baby I'd already gone before
When they say I'm worth ten pieces of coal
and you shouting hey what about when you are an old man
Fortunately baby I'd already locked the door

They say there are men who are blue like me in the stars
Beards for the weird and bars for bizarre guitarmen
Fortunately baby I'd already joined the force

Good time train well it does not need any track
It wins the race to the place where I'm gonna pack up
Fortunately baby I'd already grabbed the sky

All the days that the road has spent on me
Judges shout you must slave to be a freeman
Fortunately baby I am never coming back

Good time train, good time train ...

Burns my feet as they touch the ground.

Good Day Sunshine, Good Day Sunshine, Good Day Sunshine,
And then we lie beneath a shady tree
I love her and she's loving me
She feels good, she knows she's looking fine
I'm so proud to know that she is mine.

Good Day Sunshine, Good Day Sunshine, Good Day Sunshine,
Good Day Sunshine, Good Day Sunshine, Good Day Sunshine.

And I will say the only words
I know you'll understand

Mudvayne, Cradle.

Breathe...
Push...
...I lost you, you were my god thought what do I do now
you were never there for me never there to carry me,
26 years looking back that time is gone it was you I believed in look what you've done to me realize what you've done to

Me

I can't see going on in this darkness I'm blind beneath my cradle the bough has broke, I exorcise my loss your lie the punishment

It takes time to try to mend the wounds of all the suffering,
What do I do now all I'm asking from you please send me a sign to guide me through the times that lie in front of me I'll get by myself

Everybody leaves me, everybody's gone.
Watch my father leave me, there's nobody left.
Feels like I've never been loved.
Everybody leaves me, never gave a sh!t about me.
Everybody's gone, I'll rot in my head alone.

Here I stand now and I'm alone,
With no one to comfort me.
One set of footprints in the sand.
No one to take my hand, I'll .
I'll walk through as long as I need.
I'll drift through my life though I'm alone.
Outgrown the cradle that once housed me
And I've found that all I need is Me.

Found I've never needed you to push through
All the sh!t that stacks up inside of my life.
Endless plight that circulates through my body.
I'll keep stumbling, beating, pummeling
Teething on the rind and renounce my being.

I can't see going on.

I can't see
I'm so tired, of trying to mend the wounds of all my suffering.
What do I do now?
All I'm asking from you please,
Send me a sign
To guide me through the times that lie in front of me.
I'll get by myself

Coldplay - Yellow

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,
Yeah they were all yellow,

I came along
I wrote a song for you
And all the things you do
And it was called yellow

So then I took my turn
Oh all the things I've done
And it was all yellow

Your skin
Oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
D'you know you know I love you so
You know I love you so

I swam across
I jumped across for you
Oh what a thing to do
Cause you were all yellow

I drew a line
I drew a line for you
Oh all the things you do
And it was all yellow

Your skin
Oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
D'you know for you i bleed myself dry
For you i bleed myself dry

Its true look how they shine for you
look how they shine for you
look how they shine for you


David Gray - Please Forgive Me

Please forgive me
if I act a little strange
for I know not what I do.
Feels like lightning
running through my veins
every time I look at you.
Every time I look at you.

Help me out here
all my words are falling short
and there's so much I want to say.
Wanna tell you just how good it feels
when you look at me that way, ahhhh
When you look at me that way.

Throw a stone
and watch the ripples flow
Moving out across the bay
Like a stone I fall into your eyes
deep into that mystery, ahhh
Deep into some mystery.

I got half a mind
to scream out loud
I got half a mind to die
So I will never have to
lose you girl
So I won't ever have to say goodbye
I won't ever have to lie.
Won't ever have to say goodbye.

woooah I,
woooah I,
woooah I

Please forgive me
if I act a little strange
for I know not what I do.
Feels like lightning
running through my veins
every time I look at you.

At the risk of looking like spamming...I just listened to this song for the first time in ages, and felt I had to post it.

Del Amitri - Nothing Ever Happens

Post office clerks put up signs saying position closed
And secretaries turn off typewriters and put on their coats
Janitors padlock the gates
For security guards to patrol
And bachelors phone up their friends for a drink
While the married ones turn on a chat show

And they'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow

Gentlemen time please, you know we can't serve anymore
Now the traffic lights change to stop, when there's nothing to go
And by five o'clock everything's dead
And every third car is a cab
And ignorant people sleep in their beds
Like the doped white mice in the college lab

Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before

And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow

Telephone exchanges click while there's nobody there
The Martians could land in the carpark and no one would care
Close-circuit cameras in department stores shoot the same video every day
And the stars of these films neither die nor get killed
Just survive constant action replay

Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before

And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow

Bill hoardings advertise products that nobody needs
While angry from Manchester writes to complain about
All the repeats on T.V.
And computer terminals report some gains
On the values of copper and tin
While American businessmen snap up Van Goghs
For the price of a hospital wing

Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
The needle returns to the start of the song
And we all sing along like before
Nothing ever happens, nothing happens at all
They'll burn down the synagogues at six o'clock
And we'll all go along like before

And we'll all be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow

end of the innocence


Remember when the days were long
And rolled beneath a deep blue sky
Didn't have a care in the world
With mommy and daddy standin' by
But "happily ever after" fails
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers dwell on small details
Since daddy had to fly

But I know a place where we can go
That's still untouched by men
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
And the tall grass wave in the wind
You can lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence

O' beautiful, for spacious skies
But now those skies are threatening
They're beating plowshares into swords
For this tired old man that we elected king
Armchair warriors often fail
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers clean up all details
Since daddy had to lie

But I know a place where we can go
And wash away this sin
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
And the tall grass wave in the wind
Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair spill all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence

Who knows how long this will last
Now we've come so far, so fast
But, somewhere back there in the dust
That same small town in each of us
I need to remember this
So baby give me just one kiss
And let me take a long last look
Before we say goodbye

Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence

Mudvayne, Not Falling.

Always, Known it all my time
A little left of center now
Reflect, As I realize that all I
Need is to find
A little bit of wrath to sit like the sun like a star in the sky investigate
Sinner, Cast the stars in me

I, I stand Not crawling, Not falling down
I, I'll beat The demons, That drag me down
I, I stand (for nothing), Not crawling (decending), Not falling down (your nothing in the end)
I, I bleed (for no one), The demons (by myself), That pull me down (for me and no one else)

Goodbye, Sunshine
I put it out again
(Sun!)
I'm over, The sinelities
Convicting, I don't need you
Or anyone by me, I just need
To live in my own life
I feel like growing cynical
Infecting, I feel alive, a shovel
Turn on the line
Planted on myself to sit like the seed in the comforts of every just makes
Enough, What you think isn't me

I, I stand Not crawling, Not falling down
I, I'll beat The demons, That drag me down
I, I stand (for nothing), Not crawling (decending), Not falling down (your nothing in the end)
I, I bleed (for no one), The demons (by myself), That pull me down (for me and no one else)


Come play kill (refuse my to fall today refuse my shadow)
Stone cold will (refuse to need this refuse to follow)
Bitter pills (refuse to be this refuse to swallow i feel godless)
Come play, Come play (God!)

Test me...Test me...Test me...

I, I stand Not crawling, Not falling down
I, I'll beat The demons, That drag me down
I, I stand (for nothing), Not crawling (decending), Not falling down (your nothing in the end)
I, I bleed (for no one), The demons (by myself), That pull me down (for me and no one else)

WASTELAND OF THE FREE (Iris DeMent)
(c) 1996 Songs of Iris ASCAP

Living in the wasteland of the free...

We got preachers dealing in politics and diamond mines
and their speech is growing increasingly unkind
They say they are Christ's disciples
but they don't look like Jesus to me
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

We got politicians running races on corporate cash
Now don't tell me they don't turn around and kiss them peoples' ass
You may call me old-fashioned
but that don't fit my picture of a true democracy
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

We got CEO's making two hundred times the workers' pay
but they'll fight like hell against raising the minimum wage
and If you don't like it, mister, they'll ship your job
to some third-world country 'cross the sea
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

Living in the wasteland of the free
where the poor have now become the enemy
Let's blame our troubles on the weak ones
Sounds like some kind of Hitler remedy
Living in the wasteland of the free

We got little kids with guns fighting inner city wars
So what do we do, we put these little kids behind prison doors
and we call ourselves the advanced civilization
that sounds like crap to me
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

We got high-school kids running 'round in Calvin Klein and Guess
who cannot pass a sixth-grade reading test
but if you ask them, they can tell you
the name of every crotch on MTV
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

We kill for oil, then we throw a party when we win
Some guy refuses to fight, and we call that the sin
but he's standing up for what he believes in
and that seems pretty damned American to me
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

Living in the wasteland of the free
where the poor have now become the enemy
Let's blame our troubles on the weak ones
Sounds like some kind of Hitler remedy
Living in the wasteland of the free

While we sit gloating in our greatness
justice is sinking to the bottom of the sea
Living in the wasteland of the free
Living in the wasteland of the free
Living in the wasteland of the free


OUR TOWN (Iris DeMent)
(c) 1992 Songs of Iris/Forerunner Music, Inc. ASCAP

And you know the sun's settin' fast
and just like they say nothing good ever lasts
Well, go on now and kiss it goodbye but hold on to your lover
'cause your heart's bound to die
Go on now and say goodbye to our town, to our town
Can't you see the sun's settin' down on our town, on our town
goodnight

Up the street beside that red neon light
that's where I met my baby on one hot summer night
He was the tender and I ordered a beer
It's been forty years and I'm still sitting here

But you know the sun's settin' fast
and just like they say nothing good ever lasts
Well, go on now and kiss it goodbye but hold on to your lover
'cause your heart's bound to die
Go on now and say goodbye to our town, to our town
Can't you see the sun's settin' down on our town, on our town
goodnight

It's here I had my baby's and I had my first kiss
I've walked down Main Street in the cold morning mist
Over there is where I bought my first car
it turned over once but then it never went far

And I can see the sun settin' fast
and just like they say nothing good ever lasts
Well, go on now and kiss it goodbye but hold on to your lover
'cause your heart's bound to die
Go on now and say goodbye to our town, to our town
Can't you see the sun's settin' down on our town, on our town
goodnight

I buried my Mama and I buried my Pa
They sleep up the street beside that pretty brick wall
I bring them flowers about every day
but I just gotta cry when I think what they'd say

If they could see how the sun's settin' fast
and just like they say nothing good ever lasts
Well, go on now and kiss it goodbye but hold on to your lover
'cause your heart's bound to die
Go on now and say goodbye to our town, to our town
Can't you see the sun's settin' down on our town, on our town
goodnight

Now I sit on the porch and watch the lightning-bugs fly
but I can't see too good, I got tears in my eyes
I'm leaving tomorrow but I don't wanna go
I love you my town, you'll always live in my soul

But I can see the sun's settin' fast
and just like they say nothing good ever lasts
Well, go on I gotta kiss you goodbye but I'll hold to my lover
'cause my heart's 'bout to die
Go on now and say goodbye to my town, to my town
I can see the sun has gone down on my town, on my town
Goodnight, goodnight


LET THE MYSTERY BE (Iris DeMent)
(c) 1992 Songs of Iris/Forerunner Music, Inc. ASCAP

Everybody's wonderin' what and where they they all came from
everybody's worryin' 'bout where they're gonna go
when the whole thing's done
but no one knows for certain
and so it's all the same to me
I think I'll just let the mystery be

Some say once you're gone you're gone forever
and some say you're gonna come back
Some say you rest in the arms of the Saviour
if in sinful ways you lack
Some say that they're comin' back in a garden
bunch of carrots and little sweet peas
I think I'll just let the mystery be

Everybody's wonderin' what and where they they all came from
everybody's worryin' 'bout where they're gonna go
when the whole thing's done
but no one knows for certain
and so it's all the same to me
I think I'll just let the mystery be

Some say they're goin' to a place called Glory
and I ain't saying it ain't a fact
but I've heard that I'm on the road to purgatory
and I don't like the sound of that
I believe in love and I live my life accordingly
but I choose to let the mystery be

Everybody is wondering what and where they they all came from
everybody is worryin' 'bout where they're gonna go
when the whole thing's done
but no one knows for certain
and so it's all the same to me
I think I'll just let the mystery be
I think I'll just let the mystery be

Joni Mitchell - The Hissing Of Summer Lawns

He bought her a diamond for her throat
He put her in a ranch house on a hill
She could see the valley barbecues
From her window sill
See the blue pools in the squinting sun
Hear the hissing of summer lawns

He put up a barbed wire fence
To keep out the unknown
And on every metal thorn
Just a little blood of his own
She patrols that fence of his
To a latin drum
And the hissing of summer lawns
Darkness
Wonder makes it easy
Darkness
With a joyful mask
Darkness
Tube's gone darkness darkness darkness
No color no contrast

A diamond dog
Carrying a cup and a cane
Looking through a double glass
Looking at too much pride and too much shame
There's a black fly buzzing
There's a heat wave burning in her master's voice
The hissing of summer lawns

He gave her his darkness to regret
And good reason to quit him
He gave her a roomful of Chippendale
That nobody sits in
Still she stays with a love of some kind
It's the lady's choice
The hissing of summer lawns

Joni Mitchell - Shadows and Light

Every picture has its shadows
And it has some source of light
Blindness, blindness and sight
The perils of benefactors
The blessings of parasites
Blindness, blindness and sight
Threatened by all things
Devil of cruelty
Drawn to all things
Devil of delight
Mythical devil of the ever-present laws
Governing blindness, blindness and sight

Suntans in reservation dining rooms
Pale miners in their lantern rays
Night night and day
Hostage smile on presidents
Freedom scribbled in the subway
It's like night, night and day
Threatened by all things
God of cruelty
Drawn to all things
God of delight
Mythical god of the everlasting laws
Governing day, day and night

Critics of all expression
Judges in black and white
Saying it's wrong saying it's right
Compelled by prescribed standards
Or some ideals we fight
For wrong wrong and right
Threatened by all things
Man of cruelty-mark of Cain
Drawn to all things
Man of delight-born again, born again
Man of the laws the ever-broken laws
Governing wrong, wrong and right
Wrong and right

Norah Jones - Come Away With Me

Come away with me in the night
Come away with me
And I will write you a song

Come away with me on a bus
Come away where they can't tempt us
With their lies

I want to walk with you
On a cloudy day
In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high
So won't you try to come

Come away with me and we'll kiss
On a mountaintop
Come away with me
And I'll never stop loving you

And I want to wake up with the rain
Falling on a tin roof
While I'm safe there in your arms
So all I ask is for you
To come away with me in the night
Come away with me

Superbeast by Rob ZOmbie

Shriek the lips
across ragged tongue
convulsing together. sing
violently, move the jaw, cry
aloud. Bound up the dead
triumphantly

The ragged they come and
the ragged they kill!
you pray so hard on bloody knees
the ragged they come and
the ragged they kill!
down in the cool air I can see

hey, yeah! - I'm the one that you wanted
hey, yeah! - I'm your superbeast
hey, yeah! - I'm the one that you wanted
hey, yeah! - I'm your superbeast

Stir the limbs across the wrist
full possession of memory
bury me as a dog
icy hands surrounding me

The ragged they come and
the ragged they kill!
you pray so hard on bloody knees
the ragged they come and
the ragged they kill!
down in the cool air I can see

hey, yeah! - I'm the one that you wanted
hey, yeah! - I'm your superbeast
hey, yeah! - I'm the one that you wanted
hey, yeah! - I'm your superbeast

shriek the lips
across ragged tongue
convulsing together. sing
violently, move the jaw, cry
aloud. bound up the dead
triumphantly

The ragged they come and
the ragged they kill!
you pray so hard on bloody knees
the ragged they come and
the ragged they kill!
down in the cool air I can see

hey, yeah! - I'm the one that you wanted
hey, yeah! - I'm your superbeast
hey, yeah! - I'm the one that you wanted
hey, yeah! - I'm your superbeast

Confusion by ALice in Chains

There's no time to give at all
I cause yo grief and blow my hatred
Further in your mind
You ureach, I run, you fall
On skinned knees you crawl

[CHORUS]
I want to set you free, recognize my disease
Love, sex, pain, confusion, suffering
You're there crying, I feel not a thing
Drilling my way deeper in your head
Sinking, draining, drowning, bleeding, dead

So you sit and think of love
I wait, hate all the more, I fall
On skinned knees I crawl


Now there's time to give it all
I put my fears behind again
On skinned knees we'll crawl

Private EYes by Hall and Oates

see you, you see me
watch you blowin' the lines
when you're making a scene
Oh girl, you've got to know
what my head overlooks
the senses will show to my heart
when it's watching for lies
you can't escape my
Private Eyes
they're watching you
they see your every move
Private Eyes
they're watching you
Private Eyes
they're watching you
watching you
watching you
watching you
You play with words
you play with love
you can twist it around baby
that ain't enough
cause girl I'm gonna know
if you're letting me
in or letting me go
don't lie when you're hurting inside
'cause you can't escape my
Private Eyes
they're watching you
they see your every move
Private Eyes
they're watching you
Private Eyes
they're watching you
watching you
watching you
watching you
Why you try to put up
a front for me
I'm a spy
but on your side you see
Slip on, into any disguise
I'll still know you
look into my Private Eyes

Bad Religion - Better Off Dead

I'm sorry about the sun
How could I know that you would burn?
And I'm sorry about the moon
How could I know that you'd disapprove?
I'll never make the same mistake
The next time I create the universe I'll make sure we communicate at length

But until then, better off dead
A smile on the lips and a hole in the head
Better off dead, better than this
Take it away cause there's nothing to miss

I'm sorry about the world
How could I know you'd take it so bad?
And I'll never make the same mistake
The next time I create the universe I'll make sure you participate

But until then, better off dead
Better off dead
Why don't you try pushing daisies instead?
And I'll never make the same mistake
The next time I create the universe I'll make sure we communicate
Just in case
