Levon wears his war wound like a crown
He calls his child Jesus
Cause he likes the name
And he sends him to the finest school in town
Levon, Levon likes his money
He makes a lot they say
Spends his days counting
In the garage by the motorway
He was born a pauper to a pawn on a Christmas Day
When the New York Times said God is dead
And the wars begun
Alvin Tostig has a son today
And he shall be Levon
And he shall be a good man
And he shall be Levon
In tradition with the family plan
And he shall be Levon
And he shall be a good man
And he shall be Levon
Levon sells cartoon balloons in town
His family business thrives
Jesus blows up balloons all day
Sits on the porch swing watching them fly
And Jesus, he wants to go to Venus
Leaving Levon far behind
Take a balloon and go sailing
While Levon, Levon slowly dies
He was born a pauper to a pawn on a Christmas Day
When the New York Times said God is dead
And the wars begun
Alvin Tostig has a son today |
I got home today, took a look around
Trying to find that girl of mine, she could not be found
All her things were gone, she just left a note
It dont take no mastermind to figure what she wrote
She said, Dear John, Im moving on
By this time Im going to be long gone
Dear John, cest la vie, dear John
So long, youve seen the last of me
I dont want her back, I wont even try
This time isnt just au revoir, this time its goodbye
We could not go on, living like we were
I was just about to write a Dear John note to her
I was going to say, Dear John, Im moving on
By this time Im going to be long gone
Dear John, cest la vie, dear John
So long, youve seen the last of me
She said, Dear John, Im moving on
By this time Im going to be long gone
Dear John, cest la vie, dear John
So long, youve seen the last of me
Dear John, Im moving on, by this time Im going to
Be long gone, dear John, cest la vie, dear John, so long
Dear John, Im moving on, by this time Im going to
Be long gone, dear John, cest la vie, dear John, so long |
Im flying across the ocean and Im soaring
Back home to the place I was born
You know that Im flying across the mountains
And valleys, back home to the one that I love so much
Now dont blame me for feeling homesick
I have been away for such a very long, long time
Lord, you know I served once in the county jail
And I feel strong for being hungry, tired and poor
On and on, guess I was born to run
With your buttons and bows
Yeah, with your buttons and bows
Yeah, with your buttons and bows
Yeah, with your buttons and bows
Yeah, with your buttons and bows
Im flying across the ocean and Im soaring
Back home to the place I was born
You know that Im flying across the mountains
And valleys, back home to the one that I love and miss
On and on, guess I was born to run
With your buttons and bows
On and on, guess I was born to run
With your buttons and bows
On and on, guess I was born to run
With your buttons and bows
On and on, guess I was born to run
With your buttons and bows
Oh, with your buttons and bows
Yeah, with your buttons and bows
On and on, guess I was born to run
With your buttons and bows
On and on, guess I was born to run
With your buttons and bows
On and on, guess I was born to run
With your buttons and bows |
Ill take a rainy day
To make a champagne shower
Poach some horn and tusk
To build an ivory tower
Been to Philadelphia
The day it was closed
I walked to New Orleans
Down a Louisiana road
The skeletons they hung from the bushes and the trees
But not a skull among em said boo to me
In a time of wine and cheap cigars
Im on top of the world
Top of the world Ma
Look Ma no hands
Look Ma aint life grand
Im a super power, Im a handy man
Didnt I turn out, didnt I turn out to be
Everything you wanted Ma
Aint you proud of me
It takes a silver tongue
To have the Midas touch
Not your alchemist
Making gold from rust
Been down in Roswell
When the Martians came
I sailed to Mandeville
Across Lake Pontchartrain
Didnt I turn out, didnt I turn out to be
Everything you wanted Ma
Arent you proud of me |
Got a penny in my pocket
And a dollar in my hand
But Ill drop it in your tin cup
Cause you were a one man band
If I could make a million
On some TV show
On the roulette wheel
In a great big casino
Id go ahead and do it
But only if I knew
I could go ahead and claim it
In the name of you
Whatever worth Id choose
Whatever tricks Id use
I would find a way to claim it
In the name of you
I got my favorite hat
With that snakeskin band
When you need a little shake
Ive put it in your hands
To the bottom of the ocean
I would surely dive
To find the oldest oyster
With the biggest pearl inside
Id go ahead and do it
But only if I knew
I could go ahead and claim it
In the name of you
Whatever worth Id choose
Whatever tricks Id use
I would find a way to claim it
In the name of you
Id claim a country
Id claim a tune
All the undiscovered territory
Out there beyond the moon
Id go ahead and do it
But only if I knew
I could go ahead and claim it
In the name of you
Whatever worth Id choose
Whatever tricks Id use
I would find a way to claim it
In the name of you
Id go ahead and do it
But only if I knew
I could go ahead and claim it
In the name of you
Whatever worth Id choose
Whatever tricks Id use
I would find a way to claim it
In the name of you
In the name of you
In the name of you
In the name of you
In the name of you
In the name of you
Oh yeah
Oh yeah |
From the sunburned plains of far-off North Australia
Came a fella born to ride the wide, brown land
Oh, he grew up runnin wild
But soon, by all, was styled
As the countrys greatest-ever drovin man
Oh, his legend rode the winds from Broome to Darwin
They loved and loathed him right from end to end
For when the drover gave his heart
To a girl whose skin was dark
From that day on, he was no white mans friend
So goes The Drovers story, youll hear it near and far
And in the end, its all hell ever own
It says, The outcast is a free man
If he sleeps under the stars
Makes the blanket of the southern skies his home
Then they called him up to fight for Mother England
In a far-off war that spilled his brothers blood
Inside the jaws of Hell
Where both his brothers fell
He just watched his faith in man die in the mud
There was no heros welcome for The Drover
Just a country that had turned its back on him
When he came home from the war
His sick wife, they were not pure
They let her die for the colour of her skin
So goes The Drovers story, youll hear it near and far
And in the end, its all hell ever own
It says, The outcast is a free man
If he sleeps under the stars
Makes the blanket of the southern skies his home
The Drover is a man of constant shadows
Haunted by his pain, his past, and name
For every mile he rides
What he cannot hide
Is the longing in his heart to love again
So goes The Drovers story, youll hear it near and far
And in the end, its all hell ever own
It says, The outcast is a free man
If he sleeps under the stars
Makes the blanket of the southern skies his home
Makes the blanket of the southern skies his home
His home |
Well, they say that its a fact
If you watch the sky at night
And if you stare into the darkness
You might see celestial light
And if your heart is empty
And theres no hope inside
Theres a chance youll find
An answer in the sky
Well, they say that its a shame
If you have nothing to believe
And if you cant hold on to something
You might as well die where you sleep
You dont need a prayer
And theres no price to ask why
Sometimes youll find
An answer in the sky
And its all so much bigger than it seems
And it all overwhelms us now and then
And Im banking on a chance that we believe
That good can still control the hearts of men
Sometimes youll find
An answer in the sky
This lifes a long old road
We shouldnt have to walk alone
But if you find the right companion
You wont feel so worn out when youve grown
All life is precious
And every days a prize
And sometimes youll find
An answer in the sky
And sometimes youll find
An answer in the sky |
Its a little bit funny, this feeling inside
Im not one of those, who can easily hide
I dont have much money, but boy if I did
Id buy a big house where we could both live
If I were a sculptor, but then again no
Or a man who sells potions in a travelling show
I know its not much, but its the best I can do
My gift is my song and this ones for you
And you can tell everybody, this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that its done
I hope you dont mind, I hope you dont mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is while youre in the world
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of those verses, you know what, make me cross
But the suns been quite kind while I wrote down this song
Its for people like you that keep it turned on
So excuse me forgetting, but these things that I do
You see Ive forgotten, if theyre green or theyre blue
Anyway the thing is, what I, what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes Ive ever seen
And you can tell everybody, this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that its done
I hope you dont mind, I hope you dont mind
What I put down in words
How wonderful life is while youre in the world
I hope you dont mind, I hope you dont mind
What I put down in words
How wonderful life is while youre in the world
While youre in the world
While youre in the world |
Sitting here on Christmas Eve with a brandy in my hand
Oh Ive had a few too many and its getting hard to stand
I keep hearing noises from my fireplace
I must be going crazy or the brandys won the race
And I keep hearing ho ho ho, guess whos here
Your fat and jolly friend draws near
Ho ho ho, surprise, surprise
The bearded weirdys just arrived
Ho ho ho, guess whos here
Your fat and jolly friend draws near
Ho ho ho, surprise surprise
The bearded wierdys just arrived
On my roof theres snorting sounds, and bells inside my head
My visions blurred with colour, and all he sees is red
Theres a pair of large sized wellies coming down my flue
And the smell of burning rubber, oh is filling up the room |
Its getting late, have you seen my mates?
Ma, tell me when the boys get here
Its seven oclock and I wanna rock
Wanna get a belly full of beer
My old mans drunker than a barrel full of monkeys
And my old lady, she dont care
My sister looks cute in her braces and boots
A handful of grease in her hair
Oh, dont give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline
Oh, Saturday nights alright for fighting
Get a little action in
Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Gonna set this dance alight
Cause Saturday nights the night I like
Saturday nights alright, alright, alright, ooh
Well, theyre packed pretty tight in here tonight
Im looking for a dolly wholl see me right
I may use a little muscle to get what I need
I may sink a little drink and shout out, Shes with me!
A couple of the sounds that I really like
Are the sounds of a switchblade and a motorbike
Im a juvenile product of the working class
Whose best friend floats in the bottom of a glass
Oh, dont give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline
Saturday nights alright for fighting
Get a little action in
Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Gonna set this dance alight
Cause Saturday nights the night I like
Saturday nights alright, alright, alright, ooh
Saturday! Saturday! Saturday!
Saturday! Saturday! Saturday!
Saturday! Saturday! Saturday nights alright |
Cast a pebble on the water
Watch the ripples gently spreading
Tiny daughter of the Camargue
We were meant to be together
We were made for one another
In a time it takes to grow up
If only we were old enough
Then they might leave us both alone
So take my hand in your hand
Say its great to be alive
No ones going to find us
No matter how they try
No ones going to find us
Its wonderful so wild beneath the sky
Sleeping in the open
See the shadows softly moving
Take a train towards the southlands
Our time was never better
We shall pass the sights of splendor
On the door of a new life
It had to happen soon I guess
Whether it is wrong or it is right
We learned to be so graceful
Watching wild horses running
And from those agile angels
We knew the tide was turning
For we watched as on the skyway
The herons circled slowly
While we mere mortals watched them fly
Our sleepless eyes grew heavy |
I guess youre okay
You seem to feel better these days
Ive known you for so long
Ive seen your brightness go from blue to grey
You know thats true
You can shake your head but I can prove
Ive seen things through your eyes
You think you win but in the end you lose
And theres no second guess
We take no second bets
Chances are were a long way from happiness
Dont cover up the road to love
With words that cant express
The truth implies youre high and dry
And youre a long way from happiness
Im one step behind
Looking out for you all the time
Ill put my faith in you
And steer you clear of love that leaves you blind |
I viewed in my presence
My hand on my forehead
And sighting the liners
Of mad merchant seamen
In search of the living
Or the spices of China
Lucy walked gently
Between the damp barrels
And shut out my eyes
With the width of her fingers
Said shed guessed the number
Of bales in the back room
While the seagulls were screaming
Lucy was eating
Then we hauled up our colours
The way the mother had told us
And together we just watched the sails
Lucy I said
In a passage of cotton kegs
Can we hold hands
Im sure that its warmer
Then the gulls ate the crumbs
Of Lucys sandwich
While the seagulls were screaming
Lucy was eating
Then we hauled up our colours
The way the mother had told us
And together we just watched the sails |
I am the elder Utah Smith
Ive got two wings to fly
They may be made of paper
They may never reach the sky
But I believe in mercy
I believe that man is good
And if they want two wings like me
Theres a chance they could
I am the elder Utah Smith
I was born in Cedar Grove
Thats in Louisiana
On a dirt-poor stretch of road
I found the calling early
Gave birth to righteous words
And in a tent around the South
I took my sonic church
I was a light for the living
And I spoke of peace and love
With two wings and my old Gibson
I bought blessings from above
I was here and I was gone
Just a heartbeat from the past
But I went from paper wings
To the real thing at last
I am the elder Utah Smith
I take all as they are
I was the first man of the cloth
To blacken a guitar
Love was my redeemer
I felt it from the start
The Holy Ghost was channeled
Through the sound of my guitar
I was a light for the living
And I spoke of peace and love
With two wings and my old Gibson
I bought blessings from above
I was here and I was gone
Just a heartbeat from the past
But I went from paper wings
To the real thing at last
Been a long time in the ground
Unmarked is my grave
But I reside elsewhere these days
Thanks to souls Ive saved
I traveled far, I traveled wide
Three quarts for the Lord
Till one day he called me home
To claim his great reward
I was a light for the living
And I spoke of peace and love
With two wings and my old GIbson
I bought blessings from above
I was here and I was gone
Just a heartbeat from the past
But I went from paper wings
To the real thing at last
I was a light for the living
And I spoke of peace and love
With two wings and my old GIbson
I bought blessings from above
I was here and I was gone
Just a heartbeat from the past
But I went from paper wings
To the real thing at last |
We werent born to stand still
Aint a question of will
Gotta move its a fact
You were born to react
You werent made to behave
Like you will in the grave
Where mu-sic is played
Oh the soul - will be swayed
And your feet they will move
As if on - ly to prove
That it was –nt by chance
We were des - tined to dance
We were born to boogie
We were born to boogie
It aint a puzzle
Cos were blood and muscle
From the day of creation
We were the dance sensation
Come on and shake per bootie
Cos we were born to boogie
Anyone can get it
Cos were born kinetic
Come on and Mash Potat-a
The way God made pa
Your feet and your hands
Oh your toes and your glands
Your eyes and your chin
Your face and your skin
Oh your brawn and your brains
Your balls and your chains
We were born to boogie
We were born to boogie
It aint a puzzle
Coo were blood and muscle
From the day of creation
We were the dance sensation
Come on and shake yer bonnie
We were born to boogie
Anyone can get it
We were born kinetic
Come on and “Mash Potat-a”
The way God made ya
We were born to boogie
Were all born to
We came up from the ocean
In full locomotion
And when we hit the ground
We just danced around
Because they say
Its in the DNA
We were born to boogie
We were born to boogie
We were born to boogie
WERE-ALL-BORN-TO-BOOGIE! |
I looked up from my glass into the sky
Theres no one in my comic book to buy
Calendar swung on the wall held by a rusty nail
Down came the strange rain and washed my thoughts away
So stop in the sky and tell me why
Youre changing your colours before my eyes
Yellow, blue, green and grey
Settled on the window pane
It made the rain that came seem strange
Just like strange rain
It made the rain that came seem strange
Just like strange rain
Still I sit beside the fire and watched as it fell
Come in colours from above into my citadel
My eyes are all embroidered with the rainbow you have made
And now it seems as though its just, just like strange rain
So stop in the sky and tell me why
Youre changing your colours before my eyes
Yellow, blue, green and grey
Settled on the window pane
It made the rain that came seem strange
Just like strange rain
It made the rain that came seem strange
Just like strange rain
So stop in the sky and tell me why
Youre changing your colours before my eyes
Yellow, blue, green and grey
Settled on the window pane
It made the rain that came seem strange
Just like strange rain
It made the rain that came seem strange
Just like strange rain
Just like strange rain
Just like strange rain
Just like strange rain
Just like strange rain
Just like strange rain
Just like strange rain
Just like strange rain |
Music by elton john
Released as a uk b-side in 1982
He would recount the stories he had learned so well
Fourteen years is a long time in one cell
When the pipe is passed the opium does its rounds
Papa legba sitting pretty in a chicken little town
His textured skin, like leather in the sun
Fingers beating hard upon a native drum
He picks his teeth with a splintered back rib bone
Papa legba bears his fangs and lays alone
Hey papa legba, hoo-boo-be-do
Hey papa legba, no one gonna bother you
Hey papa legba, hoo-boo-be-do
Shake papa legba, no ones gonna bother you tonight, alright
He was free to dance alone where the spirits run
His almond eyes would twinkle on a hundred sons
His champagne toast and white meat on a spit
Papa legbas drunken with a smile upon his lips |
Spring is here, the sky is blue
Birds will sing as if they knew
Todays the day, well say I do
And well never be lonely any more
Because were going to the chapel
And were gonna to get married
Going to the chapel
And were gonna get married
Gee I really love you
And were gonna get married
Going to the chapel of love
Bells will ring, the sun will shine
I will be hers, and shell be mine
Well love until the end of time
And well never be lonely any more |
You dont pass your time in limbo
Or hang out with the crowd
Sitting on the stoop like a little girl
Who took the wrong road into town
But you got that short cut way about you
And no ones going to stare you down
You cook much better on a lower flame
You burn much better when the sun goes down
And heaven can wait
But you ought to be a saint
I got your very best intentions
Helping me along
And if I ever fail to mention
You were an overnight sensation
Well take it from me
My babys a saint
I believe you were a new arrival
On the fast train passing through
And you traded in your luck for survival
To sweeten up the witchs brew
You had a better way of working magic
A little mystery in your eyes
Instead of rolling over you remained the same
You took the whole world by surprise |
Yelled: Heres a song
Heres a little punk rock song for you
A little punk rock called
I think it was written by the Ramones
In the early 70s
Maybe before they started
You know, when it was really hard core back in the old days
Remember?
Flea
I could have sworn this was the Dead Kennedys
No no no no no
I think it was Sham 69
No, this is the Buzz-cocks
You idiot, you worthless peon
Dont you know this is one of the
It must have been, um
The Sex Pistols
No, this is Non Non Non
Hey, it was the Church or the Weirdos maybe
Hold me closer tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
Youve had a busy day today |
Id like to thank Elton and the boys for having me on tonight. We tried to think of a number to finish off with so I could get out of here and be safe, and we thought wed do a number of an old estranged fiance of mine called Paul. This is one I never sang, its an old Beatle number and we just about know it.
Well, she was just seventeen
You know what I mean
And the way she looked was way beyond compare
So how could I dance with another
When I saw her standing there
Well she looked at me, and I, I could see
That before too long Id fall in love with her
She wouldnt dance with another
When I saw her standing there
Well, my heart went boom
When I crossed that room
And I held her hand in mine...
Whoah, we danced through the night
And we held each other tight
And before too long I fell in love with her
Now Ill never dance with another
Since I saw her standing there
Well, my heart went boom
When I crossed that room
And I held her hand in mine...
Whoah, we danced through the night
And we held each other tight
And before too long I fell in love with her
Now Ill never dance with another
Since I saw her standing there |
Say what you will but Im a stinker
I come crawling up out of my hole
Dirt in my toes, dirt up my nose
Im a perfect curse to pest control
Seeds and weeds and muddy meals
Crawling around the earth
Down in the ground where the sun dont pound
I hibernate in English turf
Better believe it, Im a stinker
Burning vermin stink
Watch me get as high as a heat wave honey
Tell me what you hound dogs think
Set in my styles with a beady eye
I got connections with the underground
Call me a common rodent boy
Sitting here safe and sound
Some mole hill mother sauntered by
Acting like the ace of spades
Dont give that cutey no reason to shoot me
When Im living on the eggs she laid |
Oh its great to see our homeland
Breathe the Iberian atmosphere
Just because we are Hispanic
Doesnt mean were oceanic
Quite frankly weve had water up to here
Weve made waves to last a lifetime
Weve been saturated, almost drowned
We are Spanish not Caribbean
We are human, not amphibian
Well seek our fortunes on Spains solid ground
Theres no future in the new world
Only fools believe the tales
Of the gold of El Dorado
Only suckers set their sails
We have seen the way the tide is turning
We see what no sailor can
We are in the ball, discerning
Were antediluvian
Sixteenth century man
Two very fine examples of
Sixteenth, sixteenth century man
There are women who are lining
Every avenue in every port
Now at last well get to grips with
Things they never equip ships with
We have sailed into our last resort
Theres no goldmine in the new world
Its a trick to get recruits
On the boat to El Dorado
Were returning to our roots
Were going back to land locked ladies
Cortez never let them board
All in all the point weve made is
We dont want to go abroad
Two very fine examples of
Sixteenth century man
Two terra firma samples of
Sixteenth, sixteenth century man |
I can feel the time closing in
I can feel the years crawling through my skin
And if I doubt myself I can count on the rain
To cover the tears of this ageing game
But I can count on you to play your part
I dont miss a beat of your animal heart
And when you push from behind I know I can
Cover a mountain with the palm of my hand
And oh, babe, you can make history young again
You could rewrite, you could decide
The things that should or shouldnt have been
You could look at me in the scheme of things
Oh, oh, babe, you could make history young again
I can watch the weeks sweeping by
I can recollect the hearts hanging out to dry
When the world shuts down I can touch my fears
I can hear lost youth ringing in my ears
But I lost nothing when I gained you
You just blew me away with yesterdays news
When you run your fingers down my spine
Its like throwing a switch on the hands of time
And oh, babe, you can make history young again
You could rewrite, you could decide
The things that should or shouldnt have been
You could look at me in the scheme of things
Oh, oh, babe, you could make history young again
Ancient minds, ancient lives
Got a way of coming around
If I knew then what I know now
Id make it back to you somehow
And oh, babe, you can make history young again
You could rewrite, you could decide
The things that should or shouldnt have been
You could look at me in the scheme of things
Oh, oh, babe, you could make history young again |
Im staring down a mile of disappearing track
Is this the best that we could do
Im leaning through the rain but you aint looking back
What did I ever have to prove
Because it feels like electricity hitting an open field
When am I ever going to to learn
Married lifes two people trying to grab the wheel
Oh and we must have got lost
Living on Dark Street
Looking for an exit
Sleeping on the concrete
You cant see it with your eyes
You cant find it with your feet
All I know is that were lost baby
And were living on Dark Street
All the layoffs and the pay cuts cripple me inside
I pay the price for living everyday
Trying to keep us all together along with a little pride
Whatll it take to make you stay
But Ive dreamed about an island
And all I gots a bucket of sand
Id give my eyes to give you all your dreams
Now I get to see my family slipping through my hands |
In Orient where wise I was
To please the way I live
Come give the beggar chance at hand
His life is on his lip
Three score a thousand times
Where once in Amazon
Where Eldorado holds the key
No keeper holds my hand
Unchain the gate of solitude
The ruler says you run
Run hard unto the scaffold high
Your chance to jump the gun
Oh how high the scaffold grows
The plant life of your widow
In black lace curtains brought you near
From out the plate glass window
The Minotaur with bloody hands
Is enraged by the sun
Caged he by the corpses
Brought forth by the dawn
In Orient is as I told
The buckshee hangman swears
For open crypts to silence
Nylon knots to sway by prayer
Unchain the gate of solitude
The ruler says you run
Run hard unto the scaffold high
Your chance to jump the gun
Oh how high the scaffold grows
The plant life of your widow
In black lace curtains brought you near
From out the plate glass window
In Orient where wise I was
To please the way I live
Come give the beggar chance at hand
His life is on his lip |
Take the wheel I hear the timbers creaking
Take the wheel I think this ship is sinking
Jamaica seems so far and Ive been thinking
Old billy bones has gone to sea and quit his dockside drinking
Check It out, check it out, check it out
And when Im dead wholl fly the white bird home
Im not the ancient mariner your children know
And the seas the field these old jack tars have sown
Because billy bones just wants to know wholl fly the white bird home
Oh your majesty, your majesty
I heard the bosun cry
Old billy bones has washed ashore
Upon a foreign tide
x2
Check It out, check it out, check it out
Check It out, check it out, check it out
Check It out, check it out, check it out
Check It out, check it out, check it out |
Now I saw you talking to a cute little slip of a sailor
And it looked at first like the whole thing would end as a failure
He had a thing about a quarter to four
And he just couldnt handle any more
Hes got his own big dipper so he wont be needing your big dipper
Hes got his own big dipper and he wont be needing yours
So you filled him up with all kinds of stuff to relax him
And you took him down to the fairground after some action
And by around about a quarter to six
You found a different way to get your kicks
Up on the real big dipper where you tried an few new tricks
Big dipper
Up on a great big dipper did you learn a few new licks
He hadnt been too keen at the start
Now he seems to have a change of heart
Hes got his own big dipper
Only now hes not so sure, big dipper
Hes got his own big dipper
But theres always room for more
Everybodys got a song to sing
Everybodys got to do their thing, big dipper, big dipper
And at around about a quarter to ten
You got up and did it all again
Hes got his own big dipper and now he knows just what its for
Big dipper
Hes got his own big dipper but hes got his eye on yours
Another ride, another tune
Another crazy afternoon
Another reason for squeezing your big dipper |

— Lema? O que é isso?
— Nada, não confunda com lesma, hahaha
— Sabe garoto... essas duas palavras resolvem todos os seus problemas
— Tem razão, veja o Pumba por exemplo.... Ouça
Quando ele era um filhote...
Quando eu era um filhote
— É, foi bom Isso, hein?
— Obrigado!
Sentiu que seu cheiro era de um porcalhão
Esvaziava a savana depois da refeição
Era só eu chegar e era um tormento
Quando via todo mundo sentar contra o vento
Ai, que vexame!
Era um vexame
Quis mudar meu nome!
— Ah, que que tem o nome?
Me sentia tão triste!!
— Se sentia triste
Cada vez que eu...
— Ei Pumba, na frente das crianças não...
— Ah, desculpe!
Hakuna Matata
É lindo dizer
Hakuna Matata
Sim vai entender
Os seus problemas, você deve esquecer
— É isso aí garoto
Isso é viver
É aprender!
Hakuna Matata
Hakuna Matata, Hakuna Matata, Hakuna Matata, Hakuna
Os seus problemas você deve esquecer
Isso é viver
É aprender

Daniel is traveling tonight on a plane
I can see the red tail lights heading for Spain
Oh and, I can see Daniel waving goodbye
God, it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes
They say Spains pretty though Ive never been
And Daniel says its the best place that hes ever seen
Oh, and he should know cause hes been there enough
Lord I miss Daniel, oh, I miss him so much
Oh, Daniel my brother, you are older then me
Do you still feel the pain of the scars that wont heal
Your eyes have died but you see more than I
Daniel youre a star in the face of the sky
I miss Daniel, oh, I miss him so much
Oh, Daniel my brother you are older then me
Do you still feel the pain of the scars that wont heal
Your eyes have died but you see more than I
Daniel, youre a star in the face of the sky
Daniel is traveling tonight on a plane
I can see the red tail lights heading for Spain
Oh, and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
God, it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes
Oh, God, it looks like Daniel |
I guess there are times when we all need to share a little pain
And ironing out the rough spots
Is the hardest part when memories remain
And its times like these when we all need to hear the radio
Cause from the lips of some old singer
We can share the troubles we already know
Turn em on, turn em on
Turn on those sad songs
When all hope is gone
Why dont you tune in and turn them on?
They reach into your room, oh
Just feel their gentle touch
When all hope is gone
Sad songs say so much
If someone else is suffering enough, oh, to write it down
When every single word makes sense
Then its easier to have those songs around
The kick inside is in the line that finally gets to you
And it feels so good to hurt so bad
And suffer just enough to sing the blues
Turn em on, turn em on
Turn on those sad songs
When all hope is gone
Why dont you tune in and turn them on?
They reach into your room, oh
Just feel their gentle touch
When all hope is gone
Sad songs say so much
Sad songs, they say
Sad songs, they say
Sad songs, they say
Sad songs, thay say so much
Turn em on, turn em on
Turn on those sad songs
When all hope is gone
Why dont you tune in and turn them on?
They reach into your room, oh
Just feel their gentle touch
When all hope is gone
Sad songs say so much
When all hope is gone
You know sad songs say so much
When every bit of hope is gone
Those sad songs say so much
Sad songs, sad songs say so much
Turn em on, sad songs say so much |
I wonder whos sleeping in your sheets tonight
Whose head rests upon the bed
Could it be a close friend I knew so well
Who seems to be so close to you instead
Close to you instead
Im blue tonight, Im red when Im mad
Im green when Im jealous, yellow when Im sad
I guess I cannot have everything
So much has flown between the years
When I was twenty and you were seventeen
So out of choice I chose rock and roll
But it pushed me to the limit everyday
It turned me into a gypsy, kept me away from home
From there on, there seemed no use for you
For you to stay
And if I shower around 3 a.m
Its just to wash away
The trace of a love unwanted
Oh in the times I went astray
The times I went astray
Ooh,Ooh,Ooh,Ooh,Ooh,Ooh
So much has flown between the years
When I was twenty and you were seventeen |
On a bench, on the beach just before the sun had gone
I tried to reach you, plain faced and falling fast
You looked so vacant like an empty shell
Whose life had passed upon the ocean
Before light shook the sky, down by the docks I saw
The masts unfolding
Dont turn away, please understand, its a life and a living
And a way to keep the wolves away from hungry hands, from hungry hands
Crazy water takes my fishing boat on Monday morning
Dangerous dreaming
If we all believe in the things you believe youre seeing
Oh, wed never drop our nets in the crazy water, crazy water
Tangled lives, lonely wives
Shoreline widows pray for the souls of missing whalers
Endless nights on an endless sea where nothing lives between us
Just the breakers on the ocean
Separating you and me, ooh, separating you and me
Crazy water
In the crazy, crazy water
In the crazy, crazy, crazy water
Crazy, crazy, crazy water |
We heard Richard Nixon say, “Welcome to the USA”
The common sense I sometimes lack
Has opened up a seismic crack
We’ve fallen in and I can’t pull back
And I guess we’ll have to stay
In open arms we put our trust they put us on a big red bus
Twin spirits soaking up a dream
Fuel to feed the press machine
After years that were long and lean
We’re finally on our way
And Richard Nixon’s on his knees he’s sent so many overseas
He’d like to know if you and me could help him in some way
A little camouflage and glue to mask the evil that men do
A small diversion caused by two
Pale kids come to play
And we heard Richard Nixon say, “Welcome to the USA”
Neither of us understood the way things ticked in Hollywood
We just loaded in and grabbed the bat
With little room to swing a cat
And pretty soon we were “Where it’s at”
Or so the papers say
And all around us suntanned teens, beauty like we’d never seen
Our heroes led us by the hand
Through Brian Wilson’s promised land
Where Disney’s God and he commands
Both mice and men to stay
And Richard Nixon’s on his knees he’s sent so many overseas
He’d like to know if you and me could help him in some way
A little camouflage and glue to mask the evil that men do
A small diversion caused by two
Pale kids come to play
And we heard Richard Nixon say, “Welcome to the USA”
In a bright red Porsche on Sunset I saw Steve McQueen
I guess he’s just about the coolest guy I’ve ever seen
And for you and me that speeding car is how it’s going to be
I see no brakes just open road and lots of gasoline
Oh, We heard Richard Nixon say, “Welcome to the USA”
The common sense I sometimes lack
Has opened up a seismic crack
We’ve fallen in and I can’t pull back
Pale kids come to play
And we heard Richard Nixon say, “I’ve gotta go but you can stay”
Pale kids come to play
And we heard Richard Nixon say, “I’ve gotta go but you can stay” |
Theres a hungry road I can only hopes
Gonna eat me up inside
Theres a drifting spirit coming clean
In the eye of a lifelong fire
Tell Monday Ill be around next week
Im running ahead of my days
In the shotgun chance that scattered us
Ive seen the error of my ways
Well weve wrapped ourselves in golden crowns
Like sun gods spitting rain
Found a way home written on this map
Like red dye in my veins
In the hardest times that come around
The fear of losing grows
Ive lost and seen the world shut down
Its a darkness no one knows
And Ive poured out the pleasure and dealt with the pain
Standing in a station waiting in the rain
Im starting to feel a little muscle again
But love is lost like a runaway train
Oh Im out of control and out of my hands
Im tearing like a demon through no mans land
Trying to get a grip on my life again
Nothing hits harder than a runaway train |
Ei, novo mundo
Aqui eu vou!
Com meu companheiro
E mais alguns
Pioneiros do maximum
Com a mesma audácia em cada um
Um time que só quer vencer
Fazer o sonho vir enfim
Até que fique na neblina
A trilha que deixamos
Transformando a lenda em fato
A história um dia vai contar
Um mito em realidade, temos de tornar
Um mistério antigo
De mais de mil anos
Vai ser conhecido
Na trilha que deixamos
O paraíso está nas mãos
Shangri-La
Bendito Chão
Sétimo céu que alguém mostrou
Em comum, seja qual for
Onde virgens dançarão
E selvagens lutarão
E a criança nunca vai crescer
Na trilha que deixamos
A trilha que deixamos
É uma estrada imaginária
Há uma terra desconhecida
Dourada até o céu
É um lugar prum viajante
Sem fé sem nada
O destino somos nós e nada mais
Transformando a lenda em fato
A história um dia vai contar
Um mito em realidade, temos de tornar
Um mistério antigo
De mais de mil anos
Vai ser conhecido
Na trilha que deixamos |
Your bags out on the bed
Your closets all cleared out
You say youre going to jacksonville
Because our loves all worn out
Youre searching in my eyes
To try and find a tear
But the well of my forgiveness
Has dried up with the years
You might still look pretty
In that lacey little dress
But I think youve got your signals crossed
If you think that Im a mess
I am not going to die, I am not going to cry
I wont wear my heart out on my sleeve
You can take the car, but you wont break my heart
Oh and darling turn the lights out when you leave
I am not going to going to shake, I am not going to break
I am not going to fall down on my knees
So if everythings been said Im heading back to bed
Oh and darling turn the lights out when you leave
Its like a prime time movie
You play the part so well
You do believe youre Heaven sent
And living here is hell
I hear its hot in Florida
And its raining here tonight
But the sun going to shine tomorrow
And Im going to do alright
So if everythings been said Im heading back to bed
Oh and darling turn the lights out when you leave |
There was a little girl
Whose daddy called her queen
And life was filled with joy
Or that was how it seems
Her happiness she lost
A broken
Abandoning her trust
And now daddys not around
Oh, girl, youre a queen
Strong as anything
And when your faith must gone
You still carry on
When she turns sixteen
A boyfriend called her his queen
A stimulating kiss, that felt like in a dream
Then after another dream
And after another
Her body tells the tale
Of her unconsciousness
Oh, girl, youre a queen
Strong as anything
And when your think must gone
You still carry on
Oh, girl, youre a queen
If you just believe
And when your faith must gone
You still carry on
She became a happy wife
Whose husband called her queen
And she believed her life
Was perfect as can be
And when a surprise the walls came down
She rebelled and
The mirror now reveals
What she can finally see
Woman, youre a queen
Strong as anything
And when you see
You still carry on
Youre a queen
If you just believe
??
You still carry on
Youre a queen
Yeah, you know that you are
You still carry on
Woman, youre a queen |
Sometimes I think Im going crazy, staring at the same four walls
Waiting for the working day to end
Then I get home so wasted, worn out, I curse at you and tell you
How Ive done the work of ten to fifteen men
How Ive struggled for my money, sweated blood to get us by, yeah
Well Im tired of it honey, Think Im gonna have to leave here for a while
All you hear are hard luck stories
And the ways I look at life
And the way I think the world treats me
And the way that I treat my wife
I never seem to look at you, and see that somewhere underneath
A pair of tired eyes are crying out
Well you know I work hard all day long, let me kiss you once with meaning
Just to kill this nagging doubt
Well you dont deny I do you proud
And you expect me to be tired
You say theres no future in our lives
While i persist im putting out the fire
All you hear are hard luck stories
Just a few well chosen words
Because youre still the woman of a working man
Youve got the heart of a working girl
All you hear are hard luck stories
And the ways I look at life
And the way I think the world treats me
And the way that I treat my wife |
You remind me so much
Of her when youre walking
Where everythings perfect
And nobodys talking
Youre a cushion uncrumpled
Youre a bed thats unruffled
The finest bone china
Bone china around
And I believe that the snow queen
Lives somewhere in the hills
Shes got the world on a string
Like white wine when its chilled
Arms are spread like icicles
Upon a frosted cake
The snow queen reigns in warm L.A
Behind the cold black gates
Your talents are tested
Theyre polished and theyre shaped
Your talents are wasted
On men of no taste
But how about proving
That passion means more than
A wardrobe of gowns, TV ratings |
She may be lost
She may be out of bounds
All her tenderness and charms could be something
A man like me has never found
But in her womans way
Shes still a little girl
The things that she wants, the things that she needs
Oh well the choice is hers
Because you cant take a woman
When she doesnt want you
And you cant be a man
If youre blind to reason
Man might be strong
But true love is stronger
You gotta play it straight
When a woman doesnt want you
Her voice invites
Her eyes say more than words
But her needs and complications
Can tear away the memory of last nights girl
And if youre weak
Yeah were all weak sometime
The best things can wait
The best times they come
Oh when strength is kind
And if you cant read her
Leave her alone
And if you dont know by now
Shes not someones prize
And you cant take her home |

Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, she was a seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, shell marry a music man
Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand
And now shes in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand
Jesus freaks out in the street
Handing tickets out for God
Turning back she just laughs
The boulevard is not that bad
Piano man he makes his stand
In the auditorium
Looking on she sings the song
The words she knows, the tune she hums
But oh how it feels so real
Lying here with no one near
Only you and you can hear me
When I say softly, slowly
Hold me closer tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today

When are you gonna come down?
When are you going to land?
I should have stayed on the farm
I shouldve listened to my old man
You cannot hold me forever
I didnt sign up with you
Im not a present for your friends to open
This girls to young to be singing
The blues
So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You cant plant me in your penthouse
Im going back to my plough
Back to the howlin old owl in the woods
Hunting the horny black toad
Oh Ive finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road
What do you think youll do then?
Theyll probably shoot down your plane
Itll take you a couple vodka and tonics
To set you on your feet again
Maybe youll get a replacement
Theres plenty like me to be found
Mongrels who aint got a penny
Sniffing for tidbits like you
So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You cant plant me in your penthouse
Im going back to my plough
Back to the howlin old owl in the woods
Hunting the horny black toad
Oh Ive finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road |
Dont wish it away
Dont look at it like its forever
Between you and me I can honestly say
That things will only get better
And while Im away
Dust out the demons inside
And it wont be long before you and me run
To the place in our hearts where we hide
And I guess thats why they call it the blues
Time on my hands should be time spent with you
Laughing like children, living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess thats 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 Im your man, Mary Mary
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
And I guess thats why they call it the blues
Time on my hands should be time spent with you
Laughing like children, living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess thats why they call it the blues
Wait on me boy
I Want You To Cry in the night if it helps
But more than ever I simply love you
More than I love life itself
And I guess thats why they call it the blues
Time on my hands should be time spent with you
Laughing like children , living like lovers
Rolling like thunder under the covers
And I guess thats why they call it the blues
Laughing like children
Living like lovers Elton, living like lovers
And I guess thats why they call it the blues
And I guess thats why they call it the blues |
Dont wish it away
Dont look at it like its forever

Youre my star, my light, my whole entire life
Without you was bleary and I cant see why
My friends said James, are you feeling alright?
And I just think that Im dreaming all night
When Im with you I feel Ive been saved
And I wanna thank your mum and dad for what they made
So Im just wanna say Im gonna keep you
For life, 24/7 I hope too
Hold you closer and dont let go
I need to know how you feel too
So hold me closer and dont let go
Im falling so please, girl, dont let go
Hold me closer, tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today
Verse 2, its Ironik, youre my perfect dream, were the perfect team
Im the king, youre the queen, youre the book that I read
Without you, it feels like theres no me
And thats why its you that I just wanna keep
How many times have I told you that I love you?
So many times, you know I wanna hug you
So come and show me what love means
Cause I dont really know, Ive just seen it in my dreams, I swear
Hold you closer and dont let go
I need to know how you feel too
So hold me closer and dont let go
Im falling so please, girl, dont let go
Hold me closer, tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today
Its crazy
I dont think you recognise how strong my feelings are
So I dedicated this song to you, listen
Look, I hope you recognise now what you really mean
Without you, I couldnt do the song I sing
And I hope you like it too, cause its nothing but the truth
Youre not number one but you will be soon, believe
Hold you closer and dont let go
I need to know how you feel too
So hold me closer and dont let go
Im falling so please, girl, dont let go
Hold me closer, tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today
I hope you took in all the words, man
Its Ironik |
Its a human sign
When things go wrong
When the scent of her lingers
And temptations strong
Into the boundary
Of each married man
Sweet deceit comes calling
And negativity lands
Cold cold heart
Hard done by you
Some things look better
Just passing through
And its no Sacrifice
Just a simple word
Its two hearts living
In two separate worlds
But its no Sacrifice
No Sacrifice
Its no Sacrifice at all
Mutual misunderstanding
After the fact
Sensitivity builds a prison
In the final act
We lose direction
No stone unturned
No tears to damn you
When jealousy burns
Cold cold heart
Hard done by you
Some things look better
Just passing through
And its no Sacrifice
Just a simple word... |
You stare through a tunnel of
Solid wall that should be broken down
And you cant see the field of green
Has been turned into a raging battleground
And youll live with the consequence
Tell me why dont you understand
Youll destroy all the love thats been created
Be a miser with an empty hand
And its all such a simple thing
Changing everything
Listen to the one who brings all this love to you
Some other world, some other world, thats where you live
Some other world, some other world, thats where you live
Dont you care, stop and think about us and what you feel
Ill be there, dont you cut yourself off from what is real
Dont live in some other world
You dont live in some other world
Theres a boat bound for paradise
If you hurry you can ride it back
Cause once the bait hits the water
It dont take long till the sharks attack
Oh but its all such a simple thing
Change is everything
Let me be the one who brings all this love to you
Some other world, some other world, thats where you live
Some other world, some other world, thats where you live
Dont you care, stop and think about us and what you feel
Ill be there, dont you cut yourself off from what is real
Dont live in some other world, in some other world
Oh you dont live in some other world, in some other world
Got to stop living in some other world
Let me help you with a change of mind
And its all such a simple thing
Changing everything
Listen to the one who brings all this love to you
This is our world, not some other world
You dont live in some other world
Live in our world, not some other world
You dont live in some other world |
Oh your black icy snare
Once cut down my friend
Har ring molassis abounding
Kool kar kyrie kay salmon
Har ring molassis abounding
Kool kar kyrie kay salmon...
Oh your black icy snare
Once cut down my friend
Oh your black icy snare
Once cut down my friend |
Eu sei que sua inteligência
Nunca foi nem será generosa
Mas prestem atenção com paciência
Nas minhas palavras preciosas
Quem presta atenção se concentra
Pois quero que fiquem cientes
Que quando um rei sai outro entra
E é razão para ficarem contentes
Se preparem par ter nova vida
Uma vida sensacional
Chegou nova era, a velha já era
— E a gente, aonde fica?
Já tudo se explica
Por sua presença, terão recompensa
Quando eu ocupar o meu trono
Injustiças farei com que parem
Se preparem!
É preparados, vamos estar... Para quê?
Para a morte do rei!
Porquê, ele está doente?
Não bobo, vamos matá-lo e Simba também!
Grande idéia! Quem quer um rei?
Morram os reis, la la la la la la!
Idiotas! Haverá um rei!
Ué, mas você disse...
Eu serei rei! Fiquem comigo e jamais sentirão fome outra vez!
É, viva! Vida longa ao rei!
Vida longa ao rei!
Vida longa ao rei!
O rei é um bom camarada
E o povo vai logo adorar
Vocês que serão mais amados
Farão tudo que eu tramar
Vou distribuir prêmios caros
Pra amigos que estejam afim
Mas quero deixar muito claro
Não vão comer nada sem mim!
Se preparem para o golpe do século
Se preparem para a trama sombria
Bem premeditada
E bem calculada
E um rei rejeitado
Será coroado
Por isso eu disputo
E por isso que eu luto
O trono terá que ser meu!
Que os amigos não me desamparem
Se preparem!
Que os amigos não me desamparem
Se preparem! |
Whys it never light on my lawn?
Why does it rain and never say, Good day to the newborn?
On the big screen, they showed us a sun
But not as bright in life as the real one
Its never quite the same as the real one
And tell me, grey seal
How does it feel to be so wise?
To see through eyes that only see whats real
Tell me, grey seal
I never learned why meteors were formed
I only farmed in schools that were so worn and torn
If anyone can cry, then so can I
I read books and draw life from the eye
All my life is drawings from the eye
And tell me, grey seal
How does it feel to be so wise?
To see through eyes that only see, yeah, whats real
Tell me, grey seal
Your mission bells were wrought by ancient men
The roots were formed by twisted roots
Your roots were twisted then
I was reborn before all life could die
The phoenix bird will leave this world to fly
If the phoenix bird can fly, then so can I
And tell me, grey seal
How does it feel to be so wise?
To see through eyes that only see, yeah, whats real
Tell me, grey seal
Tell me, grey seal
How does it feel?
Tell me, grey seal
How does it feel?
Tell me, grey seal
How does it feel?
Yeah, yeah, grey seal |
Forgotten scars remind us of
Too much war, too little love
Beneath the fault-line truth to burn
Within the page so much to learn
Wounded birds look to us
Who can heal? Who to trust
Bring down the giants old and new
Strike up the band and waltz on through
I was shaking with a fever
When the last good horse went down
We were just a couple dancing
Where a thousand kings were crowned
Shaking with a fever
Before the white flag flew
And the ballroom opened up to us
And the dancers danced on through
Love in ruins, torn apart
Victims of the careless heart
Skating on the cold grey ice
Before the flood toward the light
Muddy boots to shiny shoes
Headlines screaming out the news
From dirt and damp to hardwood floors
Beyond the burned out broken walls
And the dancers danced on through |
Took a high dive arcing out wide
Into the crowd
Out to the sound of their wild applause
But youve heard it before
And youve seen it all
From up there on the diving board
Youd free fall into the ether
Above the people
Out on a limb fragile and adored
But who below knows that
Youre still a mystery
Way up on the diving board
Sink or swim
I cant recall
Who said that to me?
When I was sixteen
And full of the world and its was noise
But you beat the drum
You fell in love with it all
The planets alight
Those dizzy heights
And the view from the diving board
Took the grand prize you and your eyes
Butterfly light
Escaping the reach
Of their fangs and their claws
Such a pale little thing
In your lily-white skin
High up on the diving board
Sink or swim
I cant recall
Who said that to me?
When I was sixteen
And full of the world and its was noise
But you beat the drum
You fell in love with it all
The planets alight
Those dizzy heights
And the view from the diving board
Sink or swim
I cant recall
Who said that to me?
When I was sixteen
And full of the world and its was noise
But you beat the drum
You fell in love with it all
The planets alight
Those dizzy heights
And the view from the diving board
And the view from the diving board |
Theres some things I dont have now
Some things I dont talk about
These things are between myself and I
In my thick skull the joker hides
Theres consequences Im scared to taste
Cold hard truths I cant face
These days are different than the past
Reflections change in the looking glass
And everywhere I look theres something to learn
A sliver of truth from every bridge we burn
A hatful of quarters and a naked song
Dont answer the question of where we belong
How come birds
Dont fall from the sky when they die?
How come birds
Always look for a quiet place to hide
These words
Cant explain what I feel inside?
Like birds I need a quiet place to hide
These independent moves I make
This confidence I try to fake
You can hear the beating of my heart
But not a feather falling in the dark
And everything I hear never makes any sense
Another old prophet perched on the fence
A cupful of pencils and a self help guru
Dont answer the question of what I am to you |
Fat boys cry when ugly girls sing
About the way the world would be if they were thin
And ugly girls turn their heads when fat boys laugh
About the handsome kid next door who broke their heart
Who broke their heart
Broke their heart
And fat boys lie when ugly girls ask
About the size an apple pie looks through a magnifying glass
And ugly girls dream at night when fat boys sleep
About the way the mirrors lie when beautys only skin deep
Beautys only skin deep
Skin deep
But its the fat boys world for an ugly girl
And ugly girls love that fat boy joy
Who needs the worries of a perfect world
Hear the early birds make that spring time come
When a fat boy falls in love with an ugly girl
When a fat boy falls in love with an ugly girl
Fat boys dance when ugly girls shout
That a waltz is not the dance for the boy whos stout
And ugly girls dream at night when fat boys sleep
About the way the mirrors lie when beautys only skin deep
Beautys only skin deep
Skin deep
Fat boys and ugly girls |
Its a little bit funny, this feeling inside
Im not one of those who can easily hide, I
Dont have much money but boy if I did
Id buy a big house where we both could live
If I was a sculptor, heh... but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show, I
Know its not much but its the best I can do
My gift is my song and this ones for you
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that its done
I hope you dont mind, I hope you dont mind
That I put down in words...
How wonderful life is while youre in the world
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses, well theyve got me quite cross
But the suns been quite kind, while I wrote this song
Its for people like you that, keep it turned on
So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do
You see Ive forgotten if theyre green, or theyre blue
Anyway, the thing is, what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes Ive ever seen
And you can tell everybody that this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that its done
I hope you dont mind, I hope you dont mind
That I put down in words...
How wonderful life is while youre in the world
I hope you dont mind, I hope you dont mind
That I put down in words...
How wonderful life is while youre in the world |
When are you gonna come down?
When are you going to land?
I should have stayed on the farm
I should have listened to my old man
You know you cant hold me forever
I didnt sign up with you
Im not a present for your friends to open
This boys too young to be singing the blues
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
So goodbye, yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You cant plant me in your penthouse
Im going back to my plow
Back to the howling old owl in the wood
Hunting the horny-back toad
Oh, Ive finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
What do you think youll do then?
I bet they shoot down the plane
Itll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
To set you on your feet again
Maybe youll get a replacement
Theres plenty like me to be found
Mongrels who aint got a penny
Sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
So goodbye, yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You cant plant me in your penthouse
Im going back to my plow
Back to the howling old owl in the wood
Hunting the horny-back toad
Oh, Ive finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh |
Now, it was just like Frankie and Johnny
And it was just like Stagger Lee
Dolly Summers was a simple girl
From a mid-west family
With a stucco home and her own Mustang
And a charge account at sears
She had everything that a girl could want
To live happy for the rest of her years
But the thing that she wanted most of all
Was the thing that she had lost
To the arms of a downtown black jack hustler
By the name of Candy floss
Theyd slipped town on a late night train
Heading for the west
Dolly slipped behind the wheel of her mustang
With a piece between her breast
She put a pistol in her shoulder holster
She took her car up from Santa Fe
Yesterday morning she was washing dishes
Now shes hunting down a runaway
Dont judge a man by a misdemeanor
You may be sorry when his light goes out
Dont put that pistol in your shoulder holster
You can never, never tell if the Laws about
If it seemed just like a movie
Or a night of bad TV
They should have had a picture of Dollys face
As she drove across the country
With daggers drawn for her fallen man
An venom in her heart
It was nearly dawn when she caught them up
Making out in a picnic park
But the thing that shook her rigid
As she fumbled for her gun
Was the state of the man that shed married once
And thought of as the only one
And as she looked back on the chances
That shed passed up at home
Well, she quietly dumped pistol in a ditch
And she headed home alone
You can never, never tell if the Laws about |
Breaking down never seems to be that hard
Falling short is always in the cards
Im on the road, sunrise is at my back
Lost it all somewhere between the cracks
I always hoped that Id do better
That Id come out on top for once
We all get what we deliver
Then there are the lucky ones
And Ive got all that Im allowed
Itll do for me, Im thankful now
The walls get higher every day
The barriers get in the way
But I see hope in every cloud
And Im thankful, thankful
Im thankful, so thankful
Im thankful, Ive got all that Im allowed
Leaving town gets to feel just like a job
My desire never winds up on top
I can say now I didnt want the moon
Its out of reach somewhere beyond this room
I always hoped that id do better
That Id come out on top for once
We all get what were delivered
Then there are the lucky ones
]
I always try to make things clear
Then I watched as progress starts
I only hope Im standing here
When heaven finally comes to call |
You could never know what its like
Your blood like winter freezes just like ice
And theres a cold lonely light that shines from you
Youll wind up like the wreck you hide
Behind that mask you use
And did you think this fool could never win
Well look at me, Im coming back again
I got a taste of love in a simple way
And if you need to know while Im still standing
You just fade away
Dont you know Im still standing better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
Im still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind
Im still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah
Im still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah
Once I never could hope to win
You starting down the road leaving me again
The threats you made were meant to cut me down
And if our love was just a circus
Youd be a clown by now
Dont you know Im still standing better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
Im still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind
Im still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah
Im still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah
Im still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah
Im still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah |
Theres a light on in your window
Theres a shadow on the street
Two silhouettes tell me its over
The shadow knows that shadows me
I wont crawl I caused you trouble
Well thats the last thing Ill ever do
But before I leave your life completely
Tell me who wears these shoes, darling
Lord knows the days just get longer
The nights grow cold with you on my mind
And I feel like an old jukebox
Playing the same song all the time
If these crazy dreams dont kill me
Its more than I can take from you
Not knowing where or when Ill see you
Not knowing darling who wears these shoes
My friends all say dont go to pieces
I say thats fine but if I lose
I want to know whos in my foot steps
I want to know who wears these shoes
My friends all think I must be crazy
I see the facts but if its true
I want to know whos in my footsteps
I want to know who wears these shoes, darling
Ohh, and its a chilling feeling
When I cant see him
What do I do
When I face the two of you
Ohh, and its a chilling feeling
When I cant see him
What do I do
Darling, come on no Ive got nothing to do
I want to know I want to know who wears my shoes
Come on no Ive got nothing to do
I want to know I want to know who wears my shoes
I got to blue whether its true
I got to blue whether its true I want to know
Nothing to do I want to know I want to know
Who wears these shoes I got to blue
Whether its true I got to blue
Whether its true I want to know
Nothing to do I want to know I want to know
Who wears these shoes I got to blue |
Oh, Im a dark diamond
Ive turned hard and cold
Once was a jewel with fire in my soul
Theres two sides of a mirror
One I couldnt break through
Stayed trapped on the inside, wound up losing you
Tell me how does it work
How do you make things fit
Spent all my life trying to get it right
Ive put it together and it falls apart
I thought to myself I might understand
But when the walls built
And the heart hardens
You get a dark diamond
Dark diamond
Oh, Im a dark diamond
But youre something else
You read me more than I read myself
The one star I could count on
Only comet I could trust
You burnt through my life to the true meaning of love |
Baby whats wrong
Is it something that someone has said about me
What have you heard
Is there anything that you want to say to
And baby please dont you cry
Dont let the tears drown your eyes
Baby listen to what I say
I love you and thats all that matters
Come and sit down
And tell me just what is wrong with you
Dont you believe
The stories that tell you that Im not true
Id like to know
About the things you have heard
Id hate to think of the things
Which mighht have occured
Baby believe me
Ill always love you
And please, please dont you cry
Dont let the tears drown your eyes
Baby listen to what I say
I love you and thats all that matters |
You dont love him any more
He threw your rag doll out the door
I keep my distance
I held my breath
Love always ends up
Hanging by a thread
Love hurts so much
Love leaves a scar
I dont love you is like a stake
Being driven through your heart
But I dont care
I came back for you
Love is cruel, but I dont care
I wanted you
And Im cold
Cold
Cold
You said, Dont cry to me
He said, Im a dead man if you leave
I have no feelings, I have no heart
Love always cuts out
The warm and tender part
Love hurts so much
Love cuts so deep
Its a hot sweat and a cold shake
Like drowning in your sleep
But I dont care
I came back for you
Love is cruel, but I dont care
I wanted you
And Im cold
Cold
Cold
Love hurts so much
Love leaves a scar
I dont love you is like a stake
Being driven through your heart
I dont care
I came back for you
I dont care
I came back for you
Love is cruel
But I dont care
I wanted you
And Im cold
Cold
Cold
Im cold
Cold
So cold
Cold
Ohh Im cold
Honey, Im cold
So cold
Im so cold
Cold
Ohh Im cold
Im so cold
Cold
Ohh Im so cold
Cold
Im cold
Cold |
It doesnt matter if youre large or small
Trapezeoid or short or tall
Even if you cant dance at all
All you really gotta do is shine
It doesnt matter if your lifes a mess
The whole process will coalesce
Just try to evervesce
All you really gotta do is shine
Everyone is different
Its a natural state
Its a fact
Its plain to see
The worlds grey enough
Without making it worse
We need individuality
Cos what the hell is wrong
With expressing yourself?
What we need is in-di-vid-u-a-li-ty |
Luther left at first light Friday morning
Little Dan and Becky wave good-bye
Theyre gonna have to share the wait together
Idle hands will see a good fire slowly die
Gone to Shiloh for the Union
Shoulder to shoulder, side by side
Gone to Shiloh, hope springs eternal
When flags and bullets start to fly
Aprils come and the air smells fresh with rain
They watched his shadow fade around the bend
Hes headed for a different kind of thunder
And the stunned surprise in the eyes of dying men
Gone to Shiloh for the Union
Shoulder to shoulder, side by side
Gone to Shiloh, time passes slowly
When flags and bullets start to fly
The old black rooster sang in death down that dirt road
His steps in bold, his man of fancy free
I pray we see him alive and well in the forehead
In that Godforsaken place in Tennessee
Gone to Shiloh for the Union
Shoulder to shoulder, side by side
Gone to Shiloh, men stand united
When flags and bullets start to fly
After all this, if we should prevail
Heaven help the South
When Sherman comes their way |
Shes a real ball-buster, dont trust her
Shes in a most peculiar phase
You can rear end her oh itll send her
She wants you, shell have you her own way
Dont untie her, dont defy her
Because shell bring you down to your knees
You can beat her but dont mistreat her
Oh dont believe that woman please
Dont trust that woman
Dont trust that woman boys
Because shell burn you
Turn you into little toys
Dont trust that woman
Dont trust that woman boys
Because shell hurt you
And turn you into little toys
Dont trust that woman boys
Shes a man-eater, oh dont you cheat her
Shell cut you just to watch you bleed
A woman half crazy, oh then again lazy
With an appetite to feed
Shes a liar oh you cant buy her
Because shell bring you down to your knees
Dont untie her, dont defy her
Oh dont believe that woman please
Mean sister, tongue-twister
She takes it easy but she makes it hard
Soul sister, two-fister
She takes it easy but she makes it hard |
Oh no I dont want it
You can take it all
Ill put my money where my mouth is
Put your suitcase in the hall
Oh you robbed me blind
Of what little hope remained
You put a gun to my head
A bullet through my brain
You cant shoot down the moon
Some things never change
We can build a bridge between us
But the empty space remains
Just as long as youre around
We live on borrowed time
Ill put my money where my mouth is
Youre guilty at the scene of the crime
I never say more than I need
The mystery runs deep
The dangers buried below
The secrets that you keep |
It isnt going to be easy from now on
Youve been messing around while Ive been gone
But sometimes telling the truth can be unkind
Folks who suffer guilt can be so blind
It isnt going to be easy I can tell
Just how empty Im feeling you know damn well
Im telling you it aint gonna be easy from the start
Look out honey youre playing with my heart
It isnt going to be easy and thats for sure
Changing things back the way they were before
Once youve lifted the lid on such pain
It isnt easy to put it back again
It isnt going to be easy to forget
Now youve been seeing a man that I am not met
Im telling you that it aint gonna be easy from the start
Look out baby, youre playing with my heart
It isnt going to be so easy this time around
Turning back the clock on whats gone down
Oh there comes a time when you need to make a stand
You got to play your cards or fold a losing hand
And it isnt going to be easy and thats no lie
But if youre willing to try it so am I
It aint gonna be so easy from the start
You better look out darling, youre playing with my heart
It isnt going to be easy, it isnt going to be easy
It isnt going to be so from the start
It isnt going to be easy from the start
It isnt going to be isnt going to be easy be so easy
Easy easy easy easy easy easy yeah
It isnt going to be so easy
It isnt going to be so easy from the start, you got my heart
And it isnt going to be so easy from the start
It isnt going to be so easy from the start
It isnt going to be so easy easy from the start
Even from the start |
I hear you singing, I Shall Be Released
Like a chainsaw running through a masterpiece
But thats all right, thats ok
Grab the bottle and slide my way
You dreamed of a devil down below
Sprinkled cayenne pepper in your sugar bowl
But hes a fool and hes a thief
Got silly little horns and pointed teeth
Roll back the covers and raise the shades
We dont want to miss out on the best part of the day
Youre my best friend you shared my crazy ways
Now we dont want to miss out on the best part of the day
Theres a canyon where an echo hangs
Like the ancient bells of Notre Dame
Its beyond the hills out of sight
Thought I heard em ringing all last night
Hear the mating call of the morning dove
Like Romeo angels in the roof above
Rains will come sweet and clean
Let the tears of God keep the mountains green
One big sun coming up
Old moon going down
Thunder breaking in the east
Im going to love you until it comes around
Youre my best friend you shared my crazy ways
Now we dont want to miss out on the best part of the day |
Youre a stranger to me
Then you give me your life
I toss it to one side
Still youre sweeter to me
When we lie on the shore
Its warm where you are
But my lips just dont burn
I feel so insecure
When you try to be kind
Could I ask for more
Looking at you now I know you only want to find me
Still I need a reason to leave the past behind me
Behind me
There aint no easy way
To learn how to fly
I hope that I can kill
When I turn around youre there
Should I ask for more
I feel like sugar on the floor
I feel like sugar on the floor |
What have I gotta do to make you love me?
What have I gotta do to make you care?
What do I do when lightning strikes me
And I wake to find youre not there?
What do I do to make you want me?
What have I gotta do to be heard?
What do I say when its all over?
And sorry seems to be the hardest word
Its sad, so sad
Its a sad, sad situation
And its getting more and more absurd
Its sad, so sad
Why cant we talk it over?
Oh, it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word
Its sad, so sad
Its a sad, sad situation
And its getting more and more absurd
Its sad, so sad
Why cant we talk it over?
Oh, it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word
What do I do to make you love me?
What have I gotta do to be heard?
What do I do when lightning strikes me?
What have I gotta do?
What have I gotta do
When sorry seems to be the hardest word? |
Dont close the shades, Im scared of the darkness
Im cold as a razor blade, inches from madness
Dont let me sleep here, theyre all trying to kill me
Ive seen the walls moving, theyve all heard me screaming, screaming
Feed me
Feed my needs and then just leave me
Let me go back where you found me
Because I miss my basement
The sweet smell of new paint
The warmth and the comforts of home
So feed me
Give me my treatment and free me
My arms are so hungry so feed me
The rooms so distorted, and filled with mad shadows
I feel like a carcass, white like a marrow bone
It all seems so long ago, I remember them laughing
I heard the ambulance scream, I saw the red light flashing, flashing
Feed me |
Im sorry for everything Ive said
And for anything I forgot to say too
When things get so complicated
I stumble, at best, muddle through
I wish that our lives could be simple
I dont want the world, only you
I wish I could tell you this face to face
But theres never the time, never the place
So this letter will have to do
I love you |
When I was a boy I had a lot of fun
I lived by the sea, I was a fishermans son
My mother she was a fishermans wife
She was scrubbing floors most of her life
They said screw you
I aint got nothing to lose
I could paper a matchbox
With the money I use
At the school I attended I got into fights
I was beaten in an alley on a cold winter night
The teachers cared less for the blood in our veins
They got most of their thrills out of using a cane
They said screw you
Oh you bloody young fools
I could get more sense
Out of the back end of a mule
So you see theres man who get paid for being slaves
And men who get paid for being free
And theres men behind bars who pray for the light
And men in the suburbs who pray for the night
And theyre all trying to climb to the top of the mine
And all of them say most of the way
Screw you
I worked in the mill from seven till nine
Tears in my eyes nearly drove me half-blind
Trying to make wages that werent even there
Taking hell from a foreman with the build of a bear
He said screw you
This is all youll ever do
Its the only existence for someone like you |
Theres a river running sweat right through our land, through our land
Driven by a man with a bullwhip in his hand, in his hand
And Ive taken just as much as I can stand, I can stand
Oh weve got to free our brothers from their shackles if we can, if we can
Most nights I have to watch my woman cry, wont you cry
Every day I watch the colonel smile, oh he smiles
His painted ladies riding in from town, in from town
Oh, I swear one day Im gonna burn that whorehouse to the ground, to the ground
Slave, slave
To face the violence we must be brave
Hold on strong to the love God gave
Slave, slave
To face the violence we must be brave
Hold on strong to the love God gave
Slave
Theres a rumor of a war thats yet to come, yet to come
That may free our families free our and our sons, and our sons
It can lay green lands to waste the barren wastes of the wastes
Oh, the price of release is a bitter blow to face of the face
Slave, slave
To face the violence we must be brave
Hold on strong to the love God gave
Slave, slave
To face the violence we must be brave
Hold on strong to the love God gave
Slave

I put my life on hold and took you home
Good sense shot down I placed you on a throne
Where was the wheel that kept me on the road
The force of nature preventing overload
So dont you know Ive been dressed to kill
If you got the tools be careful what you build
When the arrows in the bulls-eye every time
Its hard assuming that the archers blind
My quicksand
Let me introduce you
To my final stand
I went to Paris once
I thought I had a plan
I woke up with an accent
I wound up in quicksand
My quicksand
I was full of foreign notions at the start
There was never once
When I was off my guard
For any ghost of every poet in the ground
Theres one like me
To buy the guys a round
My quicksand
Let me introduce you
To my final stand
I went to Paris once
I thought I had a plan
I woke up with an accent
I wound up in quicksand
My quicksand
Im going down
You and me together going down
Its not what Id been told about this town
That when you least expect if you can drown
In quicksand
My quicksand
My quicksand
Let me introduce you
To my final stand
I went to Paris once
I thought I had a plan
I woke up with an accent
I wound up in quicksand
My quicksand
My quicksand
My quicksand |
Crime in the streets
I read about it everyday in the papers
And justice needs and justice wants
But just in times, yes, too late here
Oh, feels like I wasnt born there
I feel just like a Boogie Pilgrim, oh, huh, yeah
Boogie Pilgrim, hustled to get it, to get it together
Down on the jive talk, down on the weather
Boogie Pilgrim, oh, brother I never felt better
No, I never felt better
Low lifes complete
When youve lived that way out on the sidewalk
Oh, I got the speed, baby, you got the need, ah,uh
But the need in me needs nothing
But I know that you all want something
Oh, just like Boogie Pilgrim, Boogie Pilgrim
Yeah, I know Im better
No, Im never, never, never felt better
Dont you know that I never felt better
Boogie, Boogie, Boogie Pilgrim, yeah
Oh, lord I never felt better, yeah
Ooh hoo, ooh hoo, ooh hoo
Yeah
Boogie Pilgrim |
Verleden is verboden
Ik wou dat het verdween
Maar ik zie ons samen lopen
En we wisten niet waarheen
Nog raak ik je aan
Maar de afstand wordt al groot
Nee, ik heb niet geleerd
Te leven met jouw dood
Want ik hou zo van jou
Misschien is het niet waar
Zwaait opeens die deur weer open
En natuurlijk sta jij daar
Want ik hou zo van jou!
Afscheid nam ik niet
En het einde blijft nu open
Zoals jij het achterliet
Ik droom je terug bij mij
Ik hou je zo goed vast
Heb ik je vaak genoeg gezegd dat
Dat er niet één zo bij mij past
En ze zeggen dat het went
Maar niemand zegt wanneer
Dus ik leef met de dag
En jij sterft telkens weer
Want ik hou zo van jou
Misschien is het niet waar
Zwaait opeens die deur weer open
En natuurlijk sta jij daar!
Want ik hou zo van jou!
Afscheid nam ik niet
En het einde blijft nu open
Zoals jij het achter liet
Want ik hou zo van jou!
Misschien is het niet waar
Zwaait opeens die deur weer open
En natuurlijk sta jij daar!
Want ik hou zo van jou!
Afscheid nam ik niet
En het einde blijft nu open
Zoals jij het achter liet
Want ik hou zo van jou... |
You gotta think about it
You gotta make a wish and count to ten
Theres just a sense of wonder
I feel a new direction looking down the lens
Jump started the action
Heard a song in my head and wrote it down
It came out of nowhere
Felt a new sensation driving you through town
Youre an open chord I wanna play all day
A new broom sweeping up the sins I no longer play
Cleaning out the corners
Clipping out the horrors
That the Devil used to make me wear all day
Youre an open chord Im gonna play all day
Youre gonna see some changes
Gotta pinch myself just to believe
Everybodys having something
But I can tell youve got some magic up your sleeve
Some deep protection
When a feeling follows you around
I always need the silence
Or the lightning you bring like a new good sound
Youre an open chord I wanna play all day
A new broom sweeping up the sins I no longer play
Cleaning out the corners
Clipping out the horrors
That the Devil used to make me wear all day
Youre an open chord Im gonna play all day
Sat around and waited for a spark
And it brightened up the night
Before I get much older
I want the pleasure of seeing you up in lights
I could then beside you
Hand over my heart and say a prayer
Loves not for quitters
Its a satisfaction
Knowing that youre there
Youre an open chord I wanna play all day
A new broom sweeping up the sins I no longer play
Cleaning out the corners
Clipping out the horrors
That the Devil used to make me wear all day
Youre an open chord Im gonna play all day
Cleaning out the corners
Clipping out the horrors
That the Devil used to make me wear all day
Youre an open chord Im gonna play all day
Youre an open chord Im gonna play all day |
Some days I think its all a dream
The things Ive done, the places that Ive been
This life of mine seemed surreal at times
Wasted days and nights in someone elses mind
Could it be Im not for real?
Ive slapped my face to check out how I feel
Theres hostages to prove its true
Who lives behind the mask was never proved
Come on Robert Johnson
Though were worlds apart
You and I know what its like
With the devil in our heart
You sold your soul at the crossroads
Kept a little of mine on hand
Im wading out this muddy water
Been stranded in the Wasteland
Rattling chains all around my bed
Ghosts can laugh but theyre already dead
Im not dying and Im far from gone
The blues man spent his candle but his pain lives on |
He wasnt famous but I sure did love him
Ive got his picture in a little frame
He lost his life to a big disease before it even had a name
But theres so many more and Ive lost count
The hows and whys arent important now
All that matters is they came around
And brightened up our lives
She was twenty one with her life ahead
You dont need to know her name
She breathed her last on the cold stone floor of a Hollywood arcade
But fates right hand isnt always just
Puts a lot of pressure on your faith and trust
She was just a little girl isnt that enough
To rage against the day
And how did we get so lucky?
Targets on the rifle range
Who makes the call and who gets to choose?
Who gets to win and who gets to lose?
Its like a rolling dice in the belly of the blues
And blues never fade away
Hey hey the colors run when the rain falls
But blues never fade away
He shone so bright with a lust for life
Like the sun king that he was
His passions hung upon his walls and were printed onto cloth
And for reasons i never understood
About the choices made between the bad and good
Ive tried to figure out but
The pain never goes away
And theres marble markers and little white crosses
Along the beaten path
And Ive spread their ashes on the wind
And I miss John Lennons laugh |
Im looking, Im looking back
Im trying to imagine this and that
The simple mathematics making up the map
Insurance of protection from immediate collapse
Im watching, Im watching you
A voyeur from a different point of view
The solitary eyes that Ive been looking through
Committed to connecting the old ways to the new
And I see things
Through a curtain blowing back against the rain
Through the crack in a door that heaves with pain
And through every gap that gives away
Some secret in the dark
Ill come away with something
To keep you in my heart
Im searching, Im setting out
To prove without a shadow of a doubt
The age-old contradiction thats hovering about
A whisper in the darkness
Holds more truth than a shout
Im waiting, Im waiting for
Telltale footsteps on the bedroom floor
A broken hearted lover simply looking for
Relief thats temporary from her dirty little war
And I see things
From the ceilings of a hundred hotel rooms
From a satellite thats bouncing off the moon
And from every telescope
Thats focused in on someplace dark
Ill come away with something to keep you in my heart
Yes I see things
From the highest branch that looks directly in
Through a hawks eyes gliding silent on the wind
And in every secret rendezvous where illicit lovers park
Ill come away with something to keep you in my heart
Voyeur |
Hakuna Matata
Vive y deja vivir
Hakuna Matata
Vive y sé felis
Ningún problema
Debe hacerte sufrir
Lo más facil es
Saber decir
Hakuna matata
Cuando era muy pequeñín
Cuando era muy pequeñín
Muy bonito
Gracias
Notó que su aliento no le olía muy bien
Los demás deseaban alejarse de él
Hay un alma sensible, en mi gruesa piel
Me dolió no tener un amigo fiel
Qué gran dolors
Qué mal dolor
Que gran deshonor
Qué más da el dolor
Y me deprimía
Vaya que sí
Cada vez que
Pumba, que hay niños delante
Ah, lo siento
Hakuna Matata
Que bonito es vivir
Hakuna Matata
Vive y sé feliz
Ningún problema
Debe hacerte sufrir
Lo más fácil es
Saber decir
Hakuna Matata
Ningún problema
Debe hacerte sufrir
Lo más fácil es
Saber decir

When the shrill winds are screaming
And the evening is still
Lady Samantha glides over the hill
In a long satin dress that she wears every day
Her home is the hillside, her bed is the grave
Lady Samantha glides like a tiger
Over the hill with no one beside her
No one comes near
They all live in fear
Lady Samantha, she sheds only tears
The tales that I told round the fire every night
Are out of proportion and none of them right
Shes harmless and empty of anything bad
She once had something that most of you have
Lady Samantha glides like a tiger
Over the hill with no one beside her
No one comes near
They all live in fear
Lady Samantha, she sheds only tears
She sheds only tears
Lady Samantha glides like a tiger
Over the hill with no one beside her
No one comes near
They all live in fear
Lady Samantha, she sheds only
Lady Samantha, she sheds only
She sheds only tears |
The sister of sunlight
Comes to my lonely life
Bearing the crosses I hung
I hung on my lonely wife
And the anchor told me
If I prayed by the river
That the sweet sound of water
Would always go with her
All across the havens to the waterfall
They told me I would meet her there
Inside those icy walls
But how on earth in this universe
Can they forgive me of my pains
For all across the havens
I must stumble locked in chains
Then the mother of mercy
Showed me her stable
And told me you would be safe
Safe in her cradle
And the waterfall opened
And the water withdrew
Leaving me standing
On a road leading through
All across the havens to the waterfall
They told me that I would meet her there
Inside those icy walls
But how on earth in this universe
Can they forgive me of my pains
For all across the havens
I must stumble locked in chains |
¿Cómo voy a lograr que aun me quieras?
¿Cómo lograr que quieras escuchar?
Cuando este fuego me desvela
Pero despierto solo una vez mas
¿Cómo lograr verte de nuevo?
¿Cómo he de recobrar tu corazón?
¿Cómo aceptar que todo ha muerto
Y ya no hay forma de pedir perdón?
Que mal, que mal
Esta absurda y triste historia
Que se pone cada vez peor
Que mal, que mal
¿por qué ni puedo hablarte?
Temo que es así
Que ya no hay forma de pedir perdón
¿Cómo lograr que aun me quieras?
¿Cómo lograr que quieras escuchar?
Cuando este fuego me desvela...
¿Qué es lo que voy a hacer?
¿Qué es lo que voy a hacer
Si ya no hay forma de pedir perdón? |
Theres a porch swing in tupelo
In the shade of the south
Where the sweet honey drips off that old hush-your-mouth
Its a slow road on down
That old natchez trace
Through alabama cotton fields to a state of grace
Its a crisp golden autumn
On the tennessee line
Rolling down to mississippi like you headed back in time
Towns closed on Sunday
Everybodys in church
Its empty as the moon this place here on earth
And this place dont change
Some places move slow
Im just rocking myself on this porch swing in tupelo
I got nothing to do except hang in the breeze
Ghosts of the old south are all around me
Yea swing high, yea swing low
Here on this porch swing in tupelo
His mama must have loved him
That truck driving boy
With the grease monkey look and the rock and roll voice
Well i was just thinking about him
Because I guess he sat here
Singing all praise to god through povertys tears
Here on this porch swing in tupelo |
Rolling over trying to sleep
And understanding women
Thinking of you out there somewhere
Looking for a new beginning
Just let me be the final word
In the book we havent written
I wont be another page
In understanding women
I could drive to Mexico
On understanding women
Throw myself against the waves
And answer up to heaven
How come her hearts so stubborn
And whats so wrong with giving
Ask the big sky talking
About understanding women
And Im not just anyone who ever stood outside your door
And Im not any man youve ever known before
Dont judge this picture by the frame
Every man is not the same
Some men reach beyond the pain
Of understanding women |
Help me information
Get emotion on the line
This war thats raging in my hearts
Getting harder all the time
Our painted smiles are cracking
Our worried friends just frown
We got a runaway train on an empty track
Thats trying to run us down
And Im a stones throw from hurting
Everything we put together
Knee deep in learning about burning this bridge forever
Im a stones throw, a stones throw
A stones throw from hurting
And I know its never going to get no better
Crippled conversation hangs inside this house
Our voices just get ugly
When our love gets all talked out
Your goodnight kiss aint hungry
Our touches dont connect
Were just a couple of kids with a broken toy
That our idle fingers wrecked
Some things get broken
When stones get thrown
Some things get better
When you leave what you love
And you let what you love alone |
Its a constant struggle getting up that hill
Theres a change of guard every day
When youre clinging onto a driftwood boat
You pray a great white whale might come your way
No freeway traffic in the frozen North
Just a chain link fence full of birds
And when the harpoons loaded in the cannon bay
Youll be rolling through the pages lost for words
Hey Ahab can you tell me where
I can catch a ride out of here
Hey Ahab hoist that sail
You gotta stand up straight
When you ride that whale
In a crumbling city we were trapped for days
With a broken sun above the clouds
Caught like Jonah forty fathams down
And a sign on the wall saying, Hope Allowed
All the cryptic symbols carved on bone
A far cry from a tattooed rose
And when the boys in the rigging catch the wind
Well all weigh anchor and its westward ho |
This house that I live in has no reason
This house that I sleep in has no purpose
It has a bed and a few old chairs
Three flights up, two flights of stairs
But it has no reason
Then someone shot through the tyre swing
The dogs barked and bayed in the winter and spring
And the ivy that hung now sadly clings
To a dying season
And I cry at night when the lights go out
And the green eyes fuse and the full moon shouts
From road maps and red lines to lipstick lies
And when the lights go out its tought to survive
This man holds a hand that shows a tremble
This man that I live in bears his faults
He has a heart and a well worn soul
Ten years a slave to Rock And Roll
But he has to tremble
For the yellow grass on the sun burnt lawn
Sleeps in her seeds from the sunset to dawn
And just like your love thats come and gone
It goes on breathing |
Veja o que acontece
— O quê?!
O que virá depois
— O quê?!
Estes pombinhos vão se apaixonar, seremos só nós dois
— Ah!
A troca de carícias
A mágica no ar
Enquanto há romance entre os dois, desastres vão chegar!
Nesta noite o amor chegou
Chegou pra ficar
E tudo está em harmonia e paz
Romance está no ar
São tantas coisas a dizer
Mas como lhe explicar
O que me aconteceu?
Não vou contar, se não vai me deixar
O que é que ele esconde
E não quer revelar?
Pois dentro dele um rei existe
Mas que não quer mostrar!
Nesta noite o amor chegou
Chegou para ficar
E tudo está em harmonia e paz
Romance está no ar
Nesta noite o amor chegou
E bem neste lugar
Para os dois cansados de esperar
Para se encontrar
Final feliz escrito está
Que má situação
Sua liberdade está quase no fim
Domado está o leão! |
