Breakfast at Tiffany's - Deep Blue Something
You say that we've got nothing in common
No common ground to start from
And we're falling apart
You'll say the world has come between us
Our lives have come between us
Still I know you just don't care
And I said, "What about Breakfast At Tiffany’s?"
She said, "I think I remember the film,
And as I recall, I think we both kinda liked it"
And I said, "Well, that's the one thing we've got"
I see you, the only one who knew me
And now your eyes see through me
I guess I was wrong
So what now? It's plain to see we're over
And I hate when things are over
Cos so much is left undone
And I said, "What about Breakfast At Tiffany’s?"
She said, "I think I remember the film,
And as I recall, I think we both kinda liked it"
And I said, "Well, that's the one thing we've got"
You say that we've got nothing in common
No common ground to start from
And we're falling apart
And I said, "What about Breakfast At Tiffany’s?"
She said, "I think I remember the film,
And as I recall, I think we both kinda liked it"
And I said, "Well, that's the one thing we've got"

where do we go from here, filter.
Ease
Had to start telling me
Won't bring me to my knees
Scraped up and bruised from your fickelness
I plead
Just let me feel some ease from creatures of your greed
Just let me feel some ease for me
I'm not so glad I met you
It makes me want to go away
I touch
Yeah, yeah, yeah...
Where do we go from here?
You know I'm not the only one
Where do we go from here?
No, I'm not the only one
These
Broken dreams are screams to me
The difference I can't see
The way you look and talk to me
You're cursing me I freeze
The combination of loss, control, loss of soul
I weaze
Just give some ease to me
I'm not so glad I met you
It makes me want to go away
I touch
Yeah, yeah, yeah...
Where do we go from here?
You know I'm not the guilty one
Where do we go from here?
No, I'm not the only one
I touch
Yeah, yeah, yeah...
Where do we go from here?
Stop dreamin' 'bout the shiny gun
Where do we go from here?
No, I'm not the only one
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go...... yeah....
the only way is the wrong way, filter.
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 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 cruch
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 that try to make me change
that just wear me down with more chains
And it feels like
that you 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 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

RELIGION: Public Image Ltd.
Stained glass windows keep the cold outside
While the hypocrites hide inside
With the lies of statues in their minds
Where the Christian religion made them blind
Where they hide
And prey to the God of a ***** spelled backwards is dog
Not for one race, one creed, one world
But for money
Effective
Absurd
Do you pray to the Holy Ghost when you suck your host
Do you read who’s dead in the Irish Post
Do you give away the cash you can’t afford
On bended knees and pray to lord
Fat pig priest
Sanctimonious smiles
He takes the money
You take the lies
This is religion and Jesus Christ
This is religion cheaply priced
This is bibles full of libel
This is sin in eternal hymn
This is what they’ve done
This is your religion
The apostles were eleven
Now there’s a sod in Heaven
This is religion
There’s a liar on the altar
The sermon never falter
This is religion
Your religion

But I Was Cool
I always live by the, golden rule
Whatever happens, ha, don't blow your cool!
You gotta have nerves of steel
And never show folks how you, honestly feel
I lived all my life this way, ha
For example, take yesterday:
I breeze home happy bringin' her my pay
Her note read ...so long savvy, I haven't gone away!
An' I threw myself down across our empty bed
An' this is what I said:
Ooo shhhhiiiii ooow ooow ooow
What? Oh what are you gonna do with me?
Ooo wow uh
But I was cool!
So I "one for the roaded" at a all night bar
I wound up so loaded, I tore up my car
The judge threw the book at me,
An' when I read, the sentence there, I said:
"Oow! Please oooow ooow, please I got to know, I got to know
What? what went wrong?
I don't underst... I oh a,
But I was cool!
So I said she's the only one, that I have to pay
And I found her an' pulled my gun, an' fired point blank
The shot whistled right past that woman's head
An' I killed my hound dog, dead!
Oooooow, ruff ruff, rrr, rrr, rrr, rur, rur, rur
As they carried me away
I was overheard to say,
"Be cool, be cool, stay cool, be cool!"
------------------------------------------------------------------
Master Card
I got my wife a charge card
Just the other day
I owe five hundred dollars
Just for yesterday
I said, "Honey, here's a present
Go out and shop around,
buy you a couple a-dresses,
browse around downtown"
She did just what I told her
Bought one, two, three
Came home lookin' silly
Makin' goo-goo eyes at me
Mastercharge, I'll break an' bury her card
Mastercharge, I'll break an' bury her card
Mastercharge, I'll break an' bury her card
Oh yeah, charge it!
Said, "Did you get your dress?"
"Yes, one or two"
I needed me some shoes,
I needed some jewelry, too"
Two hundred dollar dresses
I could-a made, I can't sew
It made me so mad
I could call her a so and so
Mastercharge, I'll break an' bury her card
Mastercharge, break an' bury her card
Mastercharge, break an' bury her card
Oh yeah, charge it for me, charge it, baby!
Hey! Ow!
For one-a that gal's dresses, yeah
I paid one and a half
I'm so mad, I just had to laugh
I could see in my mind
On a horse like Paul Revere
Hate to check my mail boxes
'Cause these bills keep comin' here
Mastercharge, break an' bury her card
Mastercharge, break an' bury her card
Mastercharge, break an' bury her card
Oh, let's charge it!
(Speaks with instrumental back up)
"Oh, don't get too much on the bill, dear"
("Oh, I put five hundred dollars already, baby")
"Yeah, but I know, but I'm-a, you know that, that, that, 18% is killin' me!"
"Yeah, I understand darlin', but I know you wanna charge it an' everything but, yeah, darlin' "
("They have 'American Express")
"But, wait a minute, man, I, I told ya to take that Master Card with ya
And take one wit' ya and leave one at home
"But you look good in them blue jeans, though"
("Yeah, I understand about dresses")
Yeah, they got 'em on sale up there, upside the wall, there"
"Fifteen dollars, man, on sale darlin', here, let me look for ya"
"I'm gonna bet you, be struttin' down the street in them blue jeans, haha"
"Yeah, but you can even wear them dresses on the weekend"
"Yeah, I hear ya baby, well charge it then baby, that's alright, yeah"
("I have a Visa"!)
"What"? (heh, heh)
"Give me the scissors, I'm gonna cut 'em up"
Well, you ought to be ashamed of yourself, you!"
"Yeah I know, darlin', I am"
("Charge it")
"Here, go on charge, darlin' "
"I'm guilty callin' em, I know you're gonna charge it anyway"
"Ooh, I know you gonna look good in them blue jeans
You look like you been poured in 'em"!
(Fading)
Oh, charge it baby!
Yeah, I see you later on, an' hour
I'm gone to work here, n' when I come back
I wanna see you with them jeans on, baby
Yeah, love her, yeah, you look good baby
Yeah, I know, I know... (fades out to end)

OKIE FROM MUSKOGEE: Merle Haggard
We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee;
We don't take our trips on LSD
We don't burn our draft cards down on Main Street;
We like livin' right, and bein' free.
I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee,
A place where even squares can have a ball
We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse,
And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all
We don't make a party out of lovin';
We like holdin' hands and pitchin' woo;
We don't let our hair grow long and ****gy,
Like the hippies out in San Francisco do.
And I'm proud to be an Okie from Muskogee,
A place where even squares can have a ball.
We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse,
And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all.
Leather boots are still in style for manly footwear;
Beads and Roman sandals won't be seen.
Football's still the roughest thing on campus,
And the kids here still respect the college dean.
We still wave Old Glory down at the courthouse,
In Muskogee, Oklahoma, USA.

BETTE DAVIS EYES
Her hair is Harlow gold, her lips sweet surprise
Her hands are never cold, she's got Better Davis eyes
She'll turn the music on you, you won't have to think twice
She's pure as New York snow, she got Bette Davis eyes
And she'll tease you, she'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious, and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
She got Greta Garbo's standoff sighs, she's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll let you take her home, it works her appetite
She'll lay you on the throne, she got Bette Davis eyes
She'll take a tumble on you, roll you like you were dice
Until you come out blue, she's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll expose you, when she snows you
Hope you're pleased with the crumbs she throws you
She's ferocious and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy, she's got Bette Davis eyes
And she'll tease you, she'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious, and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy, she's got Bette Davis eyes...

Crazy In The Night (Barking At Airplanes)
Sometimes I really think
I'm going crazy in the night
When I hide down in the covers
And I won't turn on the light
I think nothing's gonna get me
But then again it might
What can I do to keep from going
Crazy in the night
I need a drink of water
But I swallow hard instead
Cause it's hard to move a muscle
When you're frozen in your bed
If I could make it to the phone
Before I die of fright
What can I do to keep from going
Crazy in the night
Sometimes she really thinks
She's going crazy in the night
When she hides down in the covers
And she won't turn on the light
She says nothing's gonna get to her
But then again it might
What can she do to keep from going
Crazy in the night
There's a monster on my ceiling
There's a monster on the wall
There are thousands in the closet
Now they're coming down the hall
I'm so hidden they can't find me
But then again they might
What can I do to keep from going
Crazy in the night
Sometimes she really thinks
She's going crazy in the night
When she hides down in the covers
And she won't turn on the light
She says nothing's gonna get to her
But then again it might
What can she do to keep from going
Crazy in the night
And if I disappeared
Do you think they'd ever look
Would I be headlines in the paper
Or the cover of the book
Got to pull myself together
I don't want to die of fright
What can I do to keep from going
Crazy in the night
Sometimes she really thinks
She's going crazy in the night
When she hides down in the covers
And she won't turn on the light
She says nothing's gonna get to her
But then again it might
What can she do to keep from going
Crazy in the night

Draw of The Cards
Sleight of hand
Hands of Fate
Chance you take
Life's a snake
And it's all in the draw of the cards
Lightnin' strike
Breath of life
Red black or white
Watch 'em fall
And it's all in the draw of the cards
And it's all in the draw of the cards
Drop the cards
Watch the eyes
Down and dirty
Let 'em ride
Boulevard
Small cafe
Cavaliers
Pass the day
The joker laughs
From the street
Weaves his web
Bittersweet
Ace is high
Deuce is low
Take the first
The rest should go
And it's all in the draw of the cards
And it's all in the draw of the cards

Talking Heads
Once in a Lifetime (1984)
(Nothing But) Flowers
Here we stand
Like an Adam and an Eve
Waterfalls
The Garden of Eden
Two fools in love
So beautiful and strong
The birds in the trees
Are smiling upon them
From the age of the dinosaurs
Cars have run on gasoline
Where, where have they gone?
Now, it's nothing but flowers
There was a factory
Now there are mountains and rivers
you got it, you got it
We caught a rattlesnake
Now we got something for dinner
we got it, we got it
There was a shopping mall
Now it's all covered with flowers
you've got it, you've got it
If this is paradise
I wish I had a lawnmower
you've got it, you've got it
Years ago
I was an angry young man
I'd pretend
That I was a billboard
Standing tall
By the side of the road
I fell in love
With a beautiful highway
This used to be real estate
Now it's only fields and trees
Where, where is the town
Now, it's nothing but flowers
The highways and cars
Were sacrificed for agriculture
I thought that we'd start over
But I guess I was wrong
Once there were parking lots
Now it's a peaceful oasis
you got it, you got it
This was a Pizza Hut
Now it's all covered with daisies
you got it, you got it
I miss the honky tonks,
Dairy Queens, and 7-Elevens
you got it, you got it
And as things fell apart
Nobody paid much attention
you got it, you got it
I dream of cherry pies,
Candy bars, and chocolate chip cookies
you got it, you got it
We used to microwave
Now we just eat nuts and berries
you got it, you got it
This was a discount store,
Now it's turned into a cornfield
you got it, you got it
Don't leave me stranded here
I can't get used to this lifestyle

INside the Cynic by Stone Sour
I hear my portions end in multitude,
why was i damned and entertained to the hurd??
somewhere between the madness and my mind,,
I live with legions cuz of humankind (screams)
I wander aimlessly amongst the hurd
infested shadows i am monitered
i give a penny cuz you give no peace
they say we manifest a new disease
My head explodes,
my soul erates,
eratic bars, that scar my face
i won't, exist
i won't, resist
i cast a weem, it goes into the crowd
10,000 reasons dropped into my mouth
my theoretics can begin to live
so i have nothing more in life to give
I see the last year in me...
This is not where i should be...
You say your truth isn't mine...
...you say it's, A LIE!!
i won't - exist
i won't - resist
i won't - exist
i won't - RESIST!!

I Stand Alone
Now I've told you this once before
You can't control me
If you try to take me down...deep down you're gonna break
Now I feel your every nothing that you're doing for me
I'm picking you outta me
You run away
(Chorus)
I stand alone
Inside
I stand alone
You're always hiding behind your so called goddess
So what you don't think that we can see your face
Resurrected back before the final fallen
Now they've arrest until I can make my own way
I'm not afraid of fading
I stand alone
You let your stink down inside of me
I'm not dying for it
I stand alone
Everything that I believe is fading
(Chorus)
And now its my time (now its my time)
It's my time to dream (my time to dream)
Dream of the sky (dream of the sky)
Make me believe that this place isn't plagued
By the poison in me
Help me decide if my fire will burn out
Before you can breathe
Breathe into me
(Chorus)
You let your stink down inside of me
I'm not dying for it
I stand alone
Everything that I believe is fading
(Chorus)
Stabbing Westward
Happy
I know you've grown to hate me
even more then you have grown to hate yourself
But has it really made a difference
sharing all that hate with someone else
(Chorus)
Tell me are you really happy
do you think he's really worth the pain
Tell me are you really happy
or did you simply throw our life away just to be unhappy
Does he worship and adore you
does he make you feel so beautifully complete
Is your life so much better now
or do those same old demons haunt your sleep
(Chorus)
Is he everything you've dreamed of
I imagine he is so much more then me
And I tried to make you happy
but I believe you thrive on misery
(Chorus)

King Nothing
Wish I may
Wish I might
Have this I wish tonight
Are you satisfied?
Dig for gold
Dig for fame
You dig to make your name
Are you pacified?
All the wants you waste
All the things you've chased
Then it all crashes down
And you break your crown
And you point your finger
But there's no one around
Just want one thing
Just to play the king
But the castle's crumbled
And you're left with just a name
Where's your crown King Nothing?
Where's your crown?
Hot and cold
Bought and sold
A heart as hard as gold
Yeah! Are you satisfied?
Wish I might
Wish I may
You wish your life away
Are you pacified?
All the wants you waste
All the things you've chased
Then it all crashes down
And you break your crown
And you point your finger
But there's no one around
Just want one thing
Just to play the king
But the castle's crumbled
And you're left with just a name
Where's your crown King Nothing?
Where's your crown?
Huh!
(Spoken)
I wish I may
I wish I might
Have this wish I wish tonight
I want that star
I want it now
I want it all and I don't care how
Careful what you wish
Careful what you say
Careful what you wish
You may regret it
Careful what you wish
You just might get it
Then it all crashes down
And you break your crown
And you point your finger
But there's no one around
Just want one thing
Just to play the king
But the castle's crumbled
And you're left with just a name
Where's your crown King Nothing?
No Nothing
No you're just nothing
Where's your crown King Nothing?
No you're just nothing
Absolutely nothing
Off to never never land

Time keeps movin' on,
Friends they turn away.
I keep movin' on
But I never found out why
I keep pushing so hard the dream,
I keep tryin' to make it right
Through another lonely day, whoaa.
Dawn has come at last,
Twenty-five years, honey just in one night, oh yeah.
Well, I'm twenty-five years older now
So I know we can't be right
And I'm no better, baby,
And I can't help you no more
Than I did when just a girl.
Aww, but it don't make no difference, baby, no, no,
And I know that I could always try.
It don't make no difference, baby, yeah,

Don't expect any answers, dear,
For I know that they don't come with age, no, no.
Well, ain't never gonna love you any better, babe.
And I'm never gonna love you right,
So you'd better take it now, right now.
Oh! But it don't make no difference, babe, hey,
And I know that I could always try.
There's a fire inside everyone of us,
You'd better need it now,

I better use it till the day I die.
Don't make no difference, babe, no, no, no,
And it never ever will, hey,
I wanna talk about a little bit of loving, yeah,
I got to hold it, baby,
I'm gonna need it now,
I'm gonna use it, say, aaaah,
Don't make no difference, babe, yeah,
Ah honey, I'd hate to be the one.
I said you're gonna live your life
And you're gonna love your life
Or babe, someday you're gonna have to cry.
Yes indeed, yes indeed, yes indeed,
Ah, baby, yes indeed.
I said you, you're always gonna hurt me,
I said you're always gonna let me down,
I said everywhere, every day, every day
And every way, every way.
Ah honey won't you hold on to what's gonna move.
I said it's gonna disappear when you turn your back.
I said you know it ain't gonna be there
When you wanna reach out and grab on.
Whoa babe,
Whoa babe,
Whoa babe,
Oh but keep truckin' on.
Whoa yeah,
Whoa yeah,
Whoa yeah,
Whoa,
Whoa,
Whoa,
Whoa,

Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
Well we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt
Tom Petty
A Woman in Love
She laughed in my face, told me good-bye
Said "Don't think about it, you can go crazy
Any thing can happen, anything can end
Don't try to fight it, don't try to save me"
She's a woman in love
And he's gonna break her heart to pieces
She don't want to see
She's a woman in love, but it's not me
Well all rig ht, do what you want
Don't try to talk, don't say nothin'
She used to be the kind of woman
You have and you hold, she could understand the problem
She let the little things go
She's a woman in love
And he's gonna break her hea rt to pieces
But she don't wanna know
She's a woman in love, she can't let go
Time after time, night after night
She would look up at me and say she was lonely
I don't understand what she needed
I gave her everything, she threw it all away on nothin'
She's a woman in love
Tom Petty
Change of Heart
Well I fought for you
I fought too hard, to do it all again
It's come too far
You never needed me, you only wanted me around
It gets me down
There's been a change
Yeah there's been a change of heart
I said there's been a change
You pushed just a little too far
Made it just a little too hard
There's been a change of heart
I'll get over you, it won't take long
I've stood in your gallery
I've seen what's hangin' from the walls
You were the moon and sun
You're just a loaded gun now
It gets me down
There's been a change
Yeah there's been a change of heart
I said there's been a change
You pushed just a little too far
Made it just a little too hard
There's been a change of heart
Oh yeah, oh boy looks like we finally hit the turning point
Oh me, oh my looks like it's time for me to kiss it goodbye
There's been a change
Yeah there's been a change of heart
I said there's been a change
You pushed just a little too far
Made it just a little too hard
There's been a change of heart

I'd Rather Have A Bottle In Front Of Me
Randy Hanzlick
Jimmy and I were brothers.
We went down different paths.
Jimmy always listened to my mother,
And me, I never like to take a bath.
As we grew and tumbled through adulthood
The pressure caused emotional drain.
So now I'm slowly dying in the bottle
and Jimmy has to live with half a brain.
Yes, me, I've got a bottle in front of me,
And Jimmy has a frontal lobotomy.
Just different ways to kill the pain the same.
But I'd rather have a bottle in front of me,
Than have to have a frontal lobotomy.
I might be drunk, but at least I'm not insane.
Jimmy let his troubles drive him crazy.
He never tried to drown it in a drink.
I know that drinking makes my thinking hazy,
But at least I still have brains enough to think.
Jimmy's got a brain that isn't stable.
He doesn't have the sense to say his name.
I'm sorry that his doctor was unable
To remove the proper portion of his brain.
Yes, me, I've got a bottle in front of me,
And Jimmy has a frontal lobotomy.
Just different ways to kill the pain the same.
But I'd rather have a bottle in front of me,
Than have to have a frontal lobotomy.
I might be drunk, but at least I'm not insane.
Funny how the world works.
People can be real jerks.
Some prefer the tension over booze.
Either way it ends the same.
Hard to beat the living game.
Might as well enjoy it while you lose.
When I need a drink I start to shiver
And Jimmy always viewed it with concern.
But I'd rather have cirrhosis of the liver
Than an intellect that's second to a fern.
I wonder if old Jimmy's gonna hear it
When I tell him that his logic wasn't sound.
They'll dose him up on lots of evil spirits
When they take him to the psychiatric grounds.
Yes, me, I've got a bottle in front of me,
And Jimmy has a frontal lobotomy.
Just different ways to kill the pain the same.
But I'd rather have a bottle in front of me,
Than have to have a frontal lobotomy.
I might be drunk, but at least I'm not insane.
I might be drunk, but at least I'm not insane!

Sons of the Silent Age
David Bowie
Sons of the silent age
Stand on platforms blank looks and note books
Sit in back rows of city limits
Lay in bed coming and going on easy terms
Sons of the silent age
Pace their rooms like a cell's dimensions
Rise for a year or two then make war
Search through their one inch thoughts
Then decide it couldn't be done
Baby, I'll never let you go
All I see is all I know
Let's take another way down (sons of sound and sons of sound)
Baby, baby, I'll never let you down
I can't stand another sound
Let's find another way (sons of sound and sons of sound)
Sons of the silent age
Listen to tracks by Sam Therapy and King Dice
Sons of the silent age
Pick up in bars and cry only once
Sons of the silent age
Make love only once but dream and dream
Don't walk, they just glide in and out of life
They never die, they just go to sleep one day
Baby, I won't ever let you go
All I see is all I know
Let's take another way down (sons of sound and sons of sound)
Oh baby, baby, baby, I won't ever let you down
I can't stand another sound
Let's take another way in (sons of sound and sons of sound)
(Sons of sound and sons of sound)
Baby, baby, baby, fire away!

Lighthouse Family - Free/One Love
I wish I knew how it would feel to be free
I wish I could break all the chains holding me
I wish I could say all the things that I should say
Say 'em loud, say 'em clear
For the whole wide world to hear
I wish I could share all the love that's in my heart
Remove all the bars that keep us apart
And I wish you could know how it feels to be me
Then you'd see and agree
That every man should be free
I wish I could be like a bird in the sky
How sweet it would be if I found I could fly
Well I'd soar to the sun and look down at the sea
And I'd sing 'cos I'd know how it feels to be free
I wish I knew how it would feel to be free
I wish I could break all the chains holding me
And I wish I could say all the things that I wanna say
Say 'em loud, say 'em clear
For the whole wide world to hear
Say 'em loud, say 'em clear
For the whole wide world to hear
Say 'em loud, say 'em clear
For the whole
Wide world to hear
One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
Woah, woah, woah, woah
I wish I knew how it would feel to be free
I wish I knew how it would feel to be free
Shania Twain - She's Not Just A Pretty Face
She hosts a T.V. show--she rides the rodeo
She plays the bass in a band
She's an astronaut--
a valet at the parking lot
A farmer working the land
She is a champion--she gets the gold
She's a ballerina--the star of the show
[Chorus:]
She's--not--just a pretty face
She's--got--everything it takes
She has a fashion line--
a journalist for "Time"
Coaches a football team
She's a geologist--a romance novelist
She is a mother of three
She is a soldier--she is a wife
She is a surgeon--she'll save your life
[Chorus:]
She's--not--just a pretty face
She's--got--everything it takes
She's--mother--of the human race
She's--not--just a pretty face
Oh, oh, yeah
Oh na, na, na, na.....
She is your waitress--she is your judge--
she is your teacher
She is every woman in the world
Oh, la, la, la
She flies an airplane--
she dirve a subway train
At night she pumps gasoline
She's on the council--she's on the board
She's a politician--she praises the Lord
[Repeat Second Chorus]
No, she's (she's) not (not)--
just a pretty face
She's (she's) got (got)--everything it takes
She's--not--just a pretty face
She's got everything it takes
She's not just a pretty face

Good Mornin' from Singing in the Rain
Good Mornin'. Good Mornin'.
We've talked the whole night through.
Good Mornin'. Good Mornin' to you.
Good Mornin'. Good Mornin'.
It's great to stay up late.
Good Mornin'. Good Mornin' to you.
When the band began to play
The stars were shining bright.
Now the milkman's on his way.
It's too late to say good night.
So Good Mornin'. Good Mornin'.
Sunbeams will soon smile through.
Good Mornin'. Good Mornin'
To you and you and you and you.
Good Mornin'. Good Mornin'.
We've gabbed the whole night through.
Good Mornin'. Good Mornin' to you.
(Nothin' could be grander than to be in Louisiana)
In the Mornin'... In the Mornin'.
It's great to stay up late.
Good Mornin'. Good Mornin' to you.
(Might be just as zippy if we was in Missisippi.)
When we left the movie show
The future wasn't bright.
But came the dawn, the show goes on,
And I don't wanna say good night.
So say Good Mornin'. Good Mornin'!
Rainbows are shining through.
Good Mornin'. Good Mornin'.
Good Mornin' to you...

Travis - Driftwood
Everything is open
Nothing is set in stone
Rivers turn to oceans
Oceans tide you home
Home is where the heart is
But your heart had to roam
Drifting over bridges
Never to return
Watching bridges burn
You're driftwood floating underwater
Breaking into pieces, pieces, pieces
Just driftwood, hollow and of no use
Waterfalls will find you, bind you, grind you
Nobody is an island
Everyone had to go
Pillars turn to butter
Butterflying low
Low is where your heart is
But your heart has to grow
Drifting under bridges
Never with the flow
And you really didn't think it would happen
But it really is the end of the line
So I'm sorry that you've turned to driftwood
But you've been drifting for a long, long time
Everywhere there's trouble
Nowhere's safe to go
Pushes turn to shovels
Shovelling the snow
Frozen you have chosen
The path you wish to go
Drifting now forever
And forever more
Until you reach your shore
You're driftwood floating underwater
Breaking into pieces, pieces, pieces
Just driftwood, hollow and of no use
Waterfalls will find you, bind you, grind you
And you really didn't think it would happen
But it really is the end of the line
So I'm sorry that you've turned to driftwood
But you've been drifting for a long, long time
You've been drifting, for a long, long
Drifting for a long, long time

Be bland
Be y'know
Be boring
Be really, really, y’know nothing a void, zilch, zero, nought, nothing, vacuum
Be in love
We wanted to be loved
We wanted to be loved
We only wanted to be loved (repeat 5x)
Oh love
Love makes the world go round
We only wanted to finish the album with the minimum amount of effort
Which we are now doing very suc-cess-fully
We only wanted to be loved
We only...
Love
We wanted to be accepted by society
We wanted to be accepted
We wanted to be accepted as people
We only wanted to be loved
We only wanted to be loved
Love
We wanted to be loved
We only wanted to be loved (repeat 3x)
I’m just gonna go get a cigarette do you want one
Yes please
Wont be a second
Okay
Be bland
Be dull
Be boring
Be in love
Only wanted to be loved (repeat 4x)
Love
Every time I walk up and down the street
I look at people and I think why don’t you love me
Why don’t you love me
We only wanted to be loved (repeat 7x)
We only wanted to be lovedddd
Oh thank you wrong end
I’m in love
We only wanted to be loved (repeat 4x)
We need love
We need love like the water
Like the air we breathe, luvy
You know what I mean, like where I come from
We only wanted to be loved (repeat 3x)
Only love can satisfy us
We only wanted to be loved (repeat 4x)
No one understands us
Nobody cares
No one loves us
Love makes the world go round
Oh, it does that as well without any mistake whatsoever
Love does make the world go round
I don’t know what these punk rockers get up to
Y’know these punk rockers with their spitting and their antics
Don’t they realise that love makes the world go roooond
Realise that love makes the world go roooond
Don’t they realise that love makes the world go roooond
roooond
We only wanted to be loved (repeat 6x)
F***ing hell thirsty work in’it being famous
This traffic’s dragging on
Do you think it’ll ever end
What did you think of that engineer looking through the glass window
I think he looks rather suspicious
He looks very suspicious to me
Very dubious to me with that long hair
They don’t realise that love makes the world go round
We only wanted to be loved (repeat 13x)
I will show the frustration with our society by picking up that fire extinguisher and spraying it into the mic.
We only wanted to be loved
We only wanted to be loved
It’s blue
Oh no
We only wanted to be loved
Go on John tickle the old Joanna
We only wanted to be loved
Loved, loveddddd

For the astronauts aboard the space shuttle Columbia.
Space Oddity
David Bowie
Ground Control to Major Tom. Ground Control to Major Tom.
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on.
Ground Control to Major Tom, commencing countdown, engines on.
Check ignition and may God's love be with you.
This is Ground Control to Major Tom, you've really made the grade
and the papers want to know whose shirts you wear.
Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare.
This is Major Tom to Ground Control, I'm stepping through the door.
And I'm floating in a most peculiar way and the stars look very different today.
For here am I sitting in a tin can, far above the world.
Planet Earth is blue and there's nothing I can do.
Though I'm past one hundred thousand miles, I'm feeling very still.
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go. Tell my wife I love her very much.
She knows. Ground Control to Major Tom, your circuit's dead, there's something wrong
Can you hear me, Major Tom? Can you hear me, Major Tom? Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you- Here am I floating round my tin can far above the Moon.
Planet Earth is blue and there's nothing I can do.

EVE OF DESTRUCTION
Barry McGuire
The eastern world it tis explodin',
violence flarin', bullets loadin',
you're old enough to kill but not for votin',
you don't believe in war, what's that gun you're totin',
and even the Jordan river has bodies floatin',
but you tell me over and over and over again my friend,
ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction.
Don't you understand, what I'm trying to say?
Can't you see the fear that I'm feeling today?
If the button is pushed, there's no running away,
There'll be noone to save with the world in a grave,
take a look around you, boy, it's bound to scare you, boy,
but you tell me over and over and over again my friend,
ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction.
Yeah, my blood's so mad, feels like coagulatin',
I'm sittin' here, just contemplatin',
I can't twist the truth, it knows no regulation,
handful of Senators don't pass legislation,
and marches alone can't bring integration,
when human respect is disintegratin',
this whole crazy world is just too frustratin',
and you tell me over and over and over again my friend,
ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction.
Think of all the hate there is in Red China!
Tehn take a look around to Selma, Alabama!
Ah, you may leave here, for four days in space,
but when your eturn, it's the same old place,
the poundin' of the drums, th pride and disgrace,
you can bury your dead, but don't leave a trace,
hate your next-door-neighbour, but don't forget to say grace,
and you tell me over and over and over and over again my friend,
ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction.
