The sun is up and the shades are all pulled down
Im more paranoid with every little sound
Like the leaf blower blowing the leaves around
And a siren wailing on the other side of town
Oh the tvs on and the colors really hurt my head
If I could think straight Id wish I was dead
Or curled up naked in my lovers bed
Instead Im hanging over hell suspended by a single thread
And I dont recall who said it at this time
That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind
I built it up and the wolf he came around
He huffed and puffed and the house fell down
With a rolled up note Im hovering on that line
Three days on a diet of cocaine and wine
And a little weed just to level me sometime
I put the clock in the drawer because Ive cancelled out the time
So dont knock on my door, dont try to call
Im holed up in this room talking to the wall
When youre high as this you think you know it all
When youre this deep in theres no place else to fall
And still that saying gets inside my mind
That your enemies grow strong on what you leave behind
I built it up and the wolf he came around
He huffed and puffed and the house fell down |
I cant light no more of your darkness
All my pictures seem to fade to black and white
Im growing tired and time stands still before me
Frozen here on the ladder of my life
Too late to stop myself from falling
I took a chance and changed your way of life
But you misread my meaning when I met you
Closed the door and left me blinded by the light
Dont let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself, its always someone else I see
Id just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
I cant find the right romantic line
But see me once and see the way I feel
Dont discard me just because you think I mean you harm
But these cuts I have, they need love to help them heal
Dont let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself, its always someone else I see
Id just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me |
When its springtime down in Georgia
Its winter time up in Maine
You can go from snow to sunshine
If you board a southbound train
You get used to taking orders
But its sometimes kind of rough
I got everything that a man could need
But it still isnt quite enough
Taking about oh Georgia take me to your Southlands
I sometimes feel my life is rolling on
Oh Georgia lead me through your heartlands
I need to see them one more time before Im gone
When its nighttime down in Georgia
Its daytime in L.A
Where they never seem to do much
But they sure got lots to say
The times are changing down in Georgia
Though not always for the best
Give me thirty five good acres lord
And let progress take the rest
Oh Georgia take me to your Southlands
I sometimes feel that life has passed me by
Oh Georgia lead me through your heartlands
I need to see them one more time before I die |
No ceiling on hard living
Peace keepers keep on breathing
Cant deny eye for eye
Its open season
Dictate to my reason
She devils ruling Britain
Hey girl stick it in your purse
Call it treason
Band aids on dead doorways
No heroes in the Bat Cave
Dont give me Tears For Fears
Give me tears of rage
Fires burn with black smoke
Oil slicks put us on the ropes
Man its hard to handle
When the banks broke
Dont kow-tow, dont bow down
Loosen up, get the lead out
Backs up let them shout
Backs up sweat it out
When your backs up, sweat it out
Backs up, sweat it out
Hope froze in the cold weather
No ice on a greasy river
Liberty and John Doe
Stand and Shiver
War waits when the lines form
The baby sitter in a uniform
Knocking down your door
For your rice and corn |
She slid down to the city limits
Monkey time in fifteen minutes
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance
Dont let me down
Please stick around
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance
Strobe light on funky feet
Soul children in the disco heat
Top dog, top cat
Move that muscle and shake that fat
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance
Chicago, L.A
Everyplace, everyway
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance
Illinois, Santa Fe
Do do do do do do do what I say
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance
Bite your lip, get up, get up and dance |
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 build a big house where we both could live
If I were a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in the 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 gone
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
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 this is your song
It may be quite simple, but now that its gone
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 |
Man stands in all his glory
Sitting at the crossroads of the same old story
Man got his make-up, wears it like a mask
Hides inside a child, lives inside a glass
Man breathes his own deceit
Man worships his own defeat
Oh Im a man
I know what it feels like
Im a man working on the living part of life
You see through me
I understand
Dont lose hope
If you can
Have a little faith in man
Shakespeares men got all the lines
Modern man lives back in time
Man got bravado in his big steel hands
Runs with the wolf, sleeps with the lamb
Man falls, cuts and bleeds
Man stumbles on his own belief
Oh Im a man
I know what it feels like
Im a man working on the living part of life
You see through me
I understand
Dont lose hope
If you can
Have a little faith in man
Hes the hoax
Behind the thrill
The poison arrow
The bitter pill
Hard to swallow
Hard to kill
Hard to understand
Hes the light
Behind the hill
The broken promise
The iron will
Hard to kill
Hard to understand
Oh Im a man
I know what it feels like
Im a man working on the living part of life
You see through me
I understand
Dont lose hope
If you can
Have a little faith in man
Oh Im a man
I know what it feels like
Im a man working on the living part of life
You see through me
I understand
Dont lose hope
If you can
Have a little faith in man
Have a little faith in man |
In the quiet silent seconds
I turned off the light switch
And I came down to meet you
In the half light the moon left
While a cluster of night jars
Sang some songs out of tune
A mantle of bright light s
Shone down from a room
Come down in time I still hear her say
So clear in my ear like it was today
Come down in time was the message she gave
Come down in time and Ill meet you half way
Well I dont know if I should have heard her as yet
But a true love like hers is a hard love to get
And Ive walked most all the way and I aint heard her call
And Im getting to thinking if shes coming at all
Come down in time I still hear her say
So clear in my ear like it was today
Come down in time was the message she gave
Come down in time and Ill meet you half way
There are women and women and some hold you tight
While some leave you counting the stars in the night |
Well youre dirty and sweet
Clad in black dont look back and I love you
Youre dirty and sweet, oh yeah
Well youre slim and youre weak
Youve got the teeth of the hydra upon you
Youre dirty sweet and youre my girl
Get it on, bang a gong, get it on
Get it on, bang a gong, get it on
Well youre built like a car
Youve got a hubcap diamond star halo
Youre built like a car, oh yeah
Well youre an untamed youth
Thats the truth with your cloak full of eagles
Youre dirty sweet and youre my girl
Get it on, bang a gong, get it on
Get it on, bang a gong, get it on
Well youre windy and wild
Youve got the blues in your shoes and your stockings
Youre windy and wild, oh yeah
Well youre built like a car
Youve got a hubcap diamond star halo
Youre dirty sweet and youre my girl
Get it on, bang a gong, get it on
Get it on, bang a gong, get it on
Well youre dirty and sweet
Clad in black, dont look back and I love you
Youre dirty and sweet, oh yeah
Well you dance when you walk
So lets dance, take a chance, understand me
Youre dirty sweet and youre my girl
Get it on, bang a gong, get it on
Get it on, bang a gong, get it on
Get it on, bang a gong, get it on
Get it on, bang a gong, get it on
Get it on, bang a gong, get it on
Get it on, bang a gong, get it on
Get it on, bang a gong, get it on
Take me, for a meanwhile Im still thinking |
Dont wish it away
Dont look at it like its forever
Between you and me I could honestly say
That things can 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 could 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
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 could 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 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 could 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
And I guess thats why they call it the blues
Laughing like children, living like lovers
And I guess thats why they call it the blues
And I guess thats why they call it the blues |
Are you still in control of the boat that you row
Or do you still cling to me when its sinking
I never condemned you, I only consoled you
When candlelight made me a King
For the wide-eyed and laughing
Passed like a season, erasing a passion to sin
For no one knew better than the tea leaves and the tarots
That the wide-eyed and laughing
Were just one step ahead of the wind
And the hearts that you played on the porch swing for me
Was a song that Id heard in the past
For I had an audience somewhere inside you
That applauded whenever you laughed
Gone is a word that I now rarely use
Though sometime in the course of a day
I go racing back like a man possessed
By the wide-eyed and laughing
Daughters of some different age |
I can hear your heart
Pounding in my ear
Now I feel the sound
And the time is near
I feel the taste
Of all the things you do
Now the time has come
I know youre a dream come true
You make me so complete
With the things you do
And the musics sweet
You make me feel brand new
I hear the sound
Songs start coming through
Somehow I know
That youre a dream come true
It takes my breath
When it sounds that way
Seems like you
Chase the clouds away
And I feel so good
Each and every day
And life is good
Each and every way
Now I feel the beat
Of the dancing drums
And now I know were
Going to have some fun
Now the time stands still
And the blues are through
And now I know
What Im going to do |
Theres a calm surrender to the rush of day
When the heat of a rolling wind can be turned away
An enchanted moment, and it sees me through
Its enough for this restless warrior just to be with you
And can you feel the love tonight?
It is where we are
Its enough for this wide-eyed wanderer
That weve got this far
And can you feel the love tonight?
How its laid to rest
Its enough to make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best
Theres a time for everyone if they only learn
That the twisting kaleidoscope moves us all in turn
Theres a rhyme and reason to the wild outdoors
When the heart of this star-crossed voyager beats in time with yours
And can you feel the love tonight?
It is where we are
Its enough for this wide-eyed wanderer
That we got this far
And can you feel the love tonight?
How its laid to rest?
Its enough
To make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best
Oh, its enough
To make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best |
If you were me
And I was you
If you had to play my part out
What would you do
Two crazy stories
Two different views
If you were me
And I was you
If you were me
And I was you
What kind of crazy things
Would I have to do
Who likes to party
Who stays at home
If you were me
And I was you
Never like strangers
Though never the same
Two circus sideshows
And laughter in the rain
You stayed with the full moon
You searched for the stars
Thank God in His heaven
Here we both are
If you were me
And I was you
If you had to play my part out
What would you do
Two crazy stories
Two different views
If you were me, if you were me
If you were me and I was you |
From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
Theres more to see than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done
Some say, Eat or be eaten
Some say, Live and let live
But all are agreed as they join the stampede
You should never take more than you give
The circle of life
Its the wheel of fortune
Its the leap of faith
Its the band of hope
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
The circle, the circle of life
Some of us fall by the wayside
And some of us soar to the stars
And some of us sail through our troubles
And some have to live with the scars, yeah
Theres far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rollin high through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round
The circle of life
Its the wheel of fortune
Its the leap of faith
Its the band of hope
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle , circle of life |
Im weary and Im staying up late
And the rain hits my roof so hard
You know Im no longer thirty
These days Im happy to play
One or two hands of cards
I hate flies in the kitchen buzzing
Disturbing the peace Ive found
Fortune and fame is so fleeting
These days Im happy to say
Im amazed that Im still around
And the weight of the world is off my back
When we fell, we got up
And crawled out the cracks
Excuse me if I take some comfort in that
Happy today, happy to play
With the weight of the world off of my back
Humidity hangs like a curtain
Oh, it fogs up my glasses sometimes
You know Ive still got my eyesight
These days Im happy to see
A sunset instead of a line
Theres a long list of names
That i dont recall
Even though my memorys good
The rain washed away
The lemons and weeds
When the weight of the world weighed more than it should
I hate flies in the kitchen buzzing
Disturbing the peace Ive found
Fortune and fame is so fleeting
These days Im happy to say
Im amazed that Im still around
And the weight of the world is off my back
When we fell, we got up
And crawled out the cracks
Excuse me if I take some comfort in that
Happy today, happy to play
With the weight of the world off of my back
Happy today, happy to play
With the weight of the world off of my back |
Tonight its hot down here
I can almost smell the rain
And I can almost taste the fear
Behind your name
Fans turning on the ceiling
I feel sticky as a chili dog
White boys howling in the evening
On that hollow log
Tall tales down the river
Say we aim to bury the truth
But the right hand just delivered
The devil in a suit
And he talks big in Whitewash County
Talks sweet as sugar cane
Got a past thats filled with lightning
Got a future filled with rain
Bug buzzing in an empty glass
Fiddle scratching some lazy tune
Were just some place that history passed
New dust, new broom
And its a high hot buttered moon
Hes got a shiny new wax face
Swears the Souths gonna rise again soon
All over the place
Rain down on Whitewash County
Smell the air coming up the line
Well youve changed your face so often
But you never change your mind |
You cant always count on the prayers in your sleep
But this cold lights still killing me
If I pay the ransom
Well can they guarantee
To split the chains, slip the knots
I dont know if theyll ever set you free
I just cant rely on all these twisted signs
Too many bright lights turn you blind
The history of the blues
Seems to swim in your eyes
Pick yourself up, throw your head back
Take a long, long look into the sky
Are you out there, are you listening
Am Im coming across to you
Is the North Star still shining
In the sky outside your room
You can listen but theyre lying
Dont let them tell you
What youve always known
Its the North Star thats the big one
And its always gonna lead you home
Cant always agree on all my dumb ideas
Im still looking for a way out of here
You can value what you want
But you pay for change
Theres full moons, cold lifeless nights
And tumbled stars spell out your name
Are you out there, are you listening
Am Im coming across to you
Is the North Star still shining
In the sky outside your room
You can listen but theyre lying
Dont let them tell you
What youve always known
Its the North Star thats the big one
And its always gonna lead you home
Close your eyes, take a ride
Think of everytime that you
Missed your opp
Click your heels, see how it feels
Something so childish
Sometimes seems so real
Are you out there, are you listening
Am Im coming across to you
Is the North Star still shining
In the sky outside your room
You can listen but theyre lying
Dont let them tell you
What youve always known
Its the North Star thats the big one
And its always gonna lead you home
Its the North Star thats the big one
And its always gonna lead you home |
I hear tell some playboy has kidnapped your heart
With his plane and his plans for games after dark
Just a pain in his pocket, and the price of a room
Where the second hand sheets smell of stale perfume
If theres sharks in the water, dont swim where its deep
For the taste of success can be bitter and sweet
It could be alright that I act like a child
But youll be the loser when the jokers run wild
Youre just playing the game, but the stakes are too high
What will you do when the chips start to fly
When the decks stacked against you, and the living gets hard
Oh its four walls of madness in this house of cards
Common you call me, but I know theres time
In a handful of diamonds, a hearts hard to find
And your house of cards starts weighing you down
Your nights become restless when the clubs start to pound |
Ooh, yeah
Ba-da-da-da-da
Mmm
Hey kids, shake it loose together
The spotlights hittin something
Thats been known to change the weather
Kill the fatted calf tonight
So stick around
Were gonna make electric music
Solid walls of sound, yeah
Oh, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet?
Oh, but theyre so spaced out
B-B-B-Bennie and the Jets
Yeah, but theyre weird and theyre wonderful
Oh, Bennie, shes really keen
Shes got electric boots
A mohair suit
You know I read it in the magazine
Oh, yeah
Hey kids, plug into the faithless
Maybe theyre blinded
But Bennie makes em ageless
We shall survive, let us take ourselves along
Where we fight our parents out in the streets
To find whos right and whos wrong
Oh, yeah
Oh, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet?
Oh, but theyre so spaced out
B-B-B-Bennie and the Jets
Yeah, but theyre weird and theyre wonderful
Oh, Bennie, shes really keen
Shes got electric boots
A mohair suit
You know I read it in a magazine
Oh, yeah
Bennie and the Jets
Woah, ooh, yeah
Oh, Bennie and the Jets
Ooh, yeah, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie
Ooh, yeah, Bennie and the Jets
B-B-B-B-B-Bennie, yeah, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets
Mmm, yeah, ooh |
I meant to do my work today
The brown bird sang in the apple tree
I know thats why ....
And a butterfly flittered accross the field
And all the leaves were calling me
And the Buttercups nodded their smiling heads
Greeting the bees who came to call
And I asked the lizard the time of day.....
And the wind went sighing over the land
Tossing the grasses to and fro
And a rainbow held out its shining hand—
So what could I do but laugh and go? |
Never meant to be so friendly
Never made the room look nice
Never heed a word of warning
Never take my own advice
I got a brand-new problem
Pretty and shes 5 foot 10
I been in love three times this week
Im just about to fall again
I dont want to fall in love
Never going to fall in love, again
I dont want to fall in love
Never going to fall in love
Im never going to fall in love, again
Never meant to be so sexist
Its so hard to overcome
Trying hard to fight the feeling
Lechery can be such fun
Because everywhere theres lots of foxes
And every cat I meets a tom
I wish she didnt make me rabid
I wish she wouldnt turn me on
Because everywhere theres lots of foxes
And every cat I meets a tom
I wish she didnt make me rabid
I wish she wouldnt turn me on |
Dear God, are you there
Can you hear me, do you care
Dear God, here are we
Less than perfect, far from free
Oh we take what we get and we dont take no more
But we sometimes forget what it was you created us for
Dear God, nows the time
If youre listening, show some sign
Dear God, hear me plead
Dont desert us in our need
Dear God, lend a hand
Is this really what you planned
Dear God, in you we trust
Though weve failed you, dont fail us
Oh we take what we get but we cant take much more
Do you sometimes forget what it was you created us for, dear God
I hope and pray youll lead us to a brighter day
Out of the darkness and light up our way, dear God
I hope and pray youll lead us to a better way
Love is the answer so light up our way, dear God
Light up our way dear God, dear God
Love is the answer so light up our way, dear God |
Its a case I guess of paradise lost
Ten years back on the hands of the clock
In that little house on Mansfield
On your old block
Sometimes the magic of the past is all weve got
Just you and me at a crossroads then
Isnt it funny how we were old friends
Accidentally thrown together
Did we intend
To be the romantic novel you never want to end
And its the contact of the eye that meets across a crowded room
And how I kind of wound up the lyrics to your tune
You said, Funny but it feels like Ive known you all my life
And how it might feel to kiss you on the mouth tonight
In between the Star of David and the California moon
The Santa Ana winds blew warm into your room
We were crazy, wild and running
Blind to the change to come
In that little house on Mansfield
Wed wake at the break of dawn
In an Indian summer gone
In the candlelight I can recall
Your naked shadow looking ten feet tall
Like a wild pony dancing
Along the wall
Off balance I found love the only place to fall
Wed wake at the break of dawn
In an Indian summer gone |
Me and you were not that pretty
Me and you could use a lift
Im out here on the corner crying
I got ribbons but I got no gift
Me and you were all weve got
Me and you could be our curse
Weve got bleeding hearts and flowers
You got strings but you got no purse
Were just freaks in love, saints above shine on our sweet life
Happy is the union of fools and freaks alike
And fearless are the idiots among the hawks and doves
Were on the outside looking in a couple of freaks in love
Theres a wonder in this weakness
Its so beautiful sometimes
Across the universe were lightning
In the race were a step behind
Me and you were not for everyone
Me and you were damaged goods
Were antique and unacceptable
And just misunderstood
Were on the outside looking in a couple of freaks in love |
They must have loved each other once
But that was many years ago
And by the time I came along
Things were already going wrong
I felt the pain in their pretense
The side they tried hard not to show
But through the simple eyes of youth
It wasnt hard to see the truth
And in the end nobody wins
When love begins to fall apart
And its the innocent who pay
When broken dreams get in the way
The game begins, the game nobody wins
They must have loved each other once
Before the magic slipped away
And as their life became a lie
What love remained began to die
I used to hide beneath the sheets
I prayed that time would find a way
But with the passing of the years
I watched as laughter turned to tears
And in the end nobody wins
When love begins to fall apart
And its the innocent who pay
When broken dreams get in the way
The game begins, the game nobody wins
We used to love each other once
With all the passion we possessed
But people change as time goes by
Some feelings grow while others die
But if we learn from what we see
And face the truth while we still can
Then though the passion may be gone
Some kind of love can still live on
And in the end nobody wins
When love begins to fall apart
And its the innocent who pay
When broken dreams get in the way
The game begins, the game nobody wins
Nobody wins, nobody wins
La-la-la-la, la-la, la-la
And its the innocent who pay
When broken dreams get in the way
The game begins, the game nobody wins
Nobody wins
Nobody wins
Nobody wins
Nobody wins
Nobody wins |
The mother of invention made it good for me
Tighter in the rear
Longer in the seam
Kicked out yards of leather
Wrapped around her waist
Trimmed it to perfection
And left a little space
Yeah they got competition now
All across the world
But there hasnt been no looking back
Since God invented girls
Now I know what Brian Wilson meant
Every time I step outside
I see what Heaven sent
There may be seven wonders
Created for this world
But one is all we need
Since God invented girls
Higher on the heel, paler than pure cream
Leaner on the sidewalk
Cutting through the steam
After claws and feathers
He took skin and bone
Shaped it like an hourglass
And made the angels moan
Oh heres a little heat boys
To straighten out them curls
Now there havent been no angels round
Since God invented girls
Now I know what Brian Wilson meant
Every time I step outside
I see what Heaven sent
There may be seven wonders
Created for this world
But one is all we need
Since God invented girls
Now I know what Brian Wilson meant
Every time I step outside
I see what Heaven sent
There may be seven wonders
Created for this world
But one is all we need
Since God invented girls |
Lipstick and lashes, the traces of stardom
Lit up on a billboard so everyone sees them in neon
Behind the counter she stares out the window
Up at the billboard thats like a reminder in neon
She hates how she feels but she hangs like a mirror
Maybe a stranger could walk in and see her in neon
For two cents of danger shed trust anybody
Shed smoke like a gun if it meant she might wind up
In neon the dreams in the light of a promise that dies
A shimmering city, a glimmer of hope and a lie
In neon the names gone theres no reason why anymore
Trust them and wind up alone behind a locked door
In neon
Pictures and patterns, the touches of glamour
Cut into a fashion that flashes above them in neon
A hot cup of coffee held in her fingers
A perfect complexion that lingers above her in neon |
Holy Moses, I have been removed
I have seen the specter, he has been here too
A distant cousin from down the line, brand of people who aint my kind
Holy Moses, I have been removed
Holy Moses, I have been deceived
Now the wind has changed direction and Ill have to leave
Wont you please excuse my frankness, its not my cup of tea
Holy Moses, I have been deceived
Im going back to the border where my affairs
My affairs aint abused
I cant take any more bad water
Im poisoned from my head down to my shoes
Holy Moses, let us live in peace
Let us strive to find a way to make all hatred cease
Theres a man standing over there. What is his color? I dont care
Hes my brother, let us live in peace
Hes my brother, let us live in peace
Hes my brother, let us live, let us live in peace
Holy Moses
Holy Moses
Holy Moses
Holy Moses |
Pull the string and Ill wink at you, Im your puppet
Ill do funny things if you want me to, Im your puppet
Ill be yours to have and to hold
Darling youve got full control of your puppet

Walking, talking, living, loving puppet

Im a smiling happy face when you want me to
Even make you happy when youre feeling blue |

Mais que a imaginação
Muito mais pro tempo permitir
E são tantos caminhos pra se seguir
E lugares pra se descobrir
E o sol a girar sobre o azul deste céu
Nos mantém neste rio a fluir
É o ciclo sem fim
Que nos guiará
A dor e a emoção
Pela fé e o amor
Até encontrar
O nosso caminho
Neste ciclo, neste ciclo sem fim
É o ciclo sem fim
Que nos guiará
A dor e a emoção
Pela fé e o amor
Até encontrar
O nosso caminho
Neste ciclo, neste ciclo sem fim |
Youve been crying, and Im crazy about you
Ive been lying, and hanging you up, because
Im deep on the inside, but flash on the outside
I am the thunder, and you are my lightning
Give me the love, baby, give me the key to your heart
Give me the love, give me the key to your heart
Months of watching, and hours of hoping
That youd want me, when you see me again
For I am an eagle, but my wings are all tied up
You got the power to fly me again
Youve been trying to build walls all around you
But youre lying, because Ive already been through
And Ive seen you trying to capture that feeling
But youre chasing what youve never believed in
Months of watching
And hours of hoping
That youd want me
When you see me again
For I am an eagle
But my wings are all tied up
You got the power
To fly me again
So, give me the love, baby
Give me the key to your heart
Give me the love, baby
Give me the key to your heart
Give me the love
Give me the key to your heart
Youve been trying
To build walls all around you
But youre lying
Because Ive already been through
And Ive seen you trying
To capture that feeling
But youre chasing
What youve never believed in
Tell me you love me
Tell me you need me |
Hand it over
Reach across the line
Lets talk about it, tell me one more time
What is it you want
What you think youll find
Inside of this old heart of mine
Come on out
Cause you want to play
The rain went east, come to roll away
Here you went to choose and youre gonna stay
So I knew thats the price I pay
Cant you tell the deals been done
Wont you let me love you
I dont see no smoking gun
Im not up here to judge you
What do you see when you look at me
Tell the man to measure
Am I the lover youd like my love
Or just some guilty pleasure
I roamed around
Looking for a clue
Searched the world its what I used to do
Where I went
What I went though
A bit too hard to find a way to you
I cant move so
Never really could
Sing a song that you understood
Its what you do when you think you should
Surrender like you knew you always would
Cant you tell the deals been done
Wont you let me love you
I dont see no smoking gun
Im not up here to judge you
What do you see when you look at me
Tell the man to measure
Am I the lover youd like my love
Or just some guilty pleasure
Hold out, distilling down
Whats it going to be
Never tell
In a million years
No, you cant get enough of me
Cant you tell the deals been done
Wont you let me love you
I dont see no smoking gun
Im not up here to judge you
What do you see when you look at me
Tell the man to measure
Am I the lover youd like my love
Or just some guilty pleasure
Am I the lover youd like my love
Or just some guilty pleasure |
Laa, la-la-la-la-laa

I remember when rock was young
Gnomeo and Julie had so much fun
Gnomeo nights crying by the record machine
Had an old gold buggy and a place of my own
But the biggest kick I ever got
Was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock
While the other kids were rocking round the clock
We were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock
Crocodile Rocking is something shocking
When your feet just cant keep still
I never knew me a better time, and I guess I never will
Eh! Everybody is feeling right
Because were gonna dance all night
And the Crocodile Rocking was something of sight
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!
Laa, la-la-la-la-laa
La-la-la-la-laa
La-la-la-la-laa
But the years went by and the rock never died
Juliet went and left Gnomeo for some foreign guy
Long nights crying by the record machine
Dreaming of my Chevy and my old blue jeans
Cause theyll never kill the thrills weve got
Burning up to the Crocodile Rock
Learning fast as the weeks went past
We really thought the Crocodile Rock would last
Crocodile Rocking is something shocking
When your feet just cant keep still
I never knew me a better time, and I guess I never will
Oh, lawdy mama, those Friday nights
When Susie wore her dresses tight
And the Crocodile Rocking was out of sight
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!
Laa, la-la-la-la-laa
La-la-la-la-laa
La-la-la-la-laa
Laa, la-la-la-la-laa
La-la-la-la-laa
La-la-la-la-laa
Crocidile rocking
Crocidile rocking
Oh, rocking rocking rocking
Rocking rocking
Crocodile Rocking is something shocking
When your feet just cant keep still
I never knew me a better time, and I guess I never will
Oh, lawdy mama, those Friday nights
When Susie wore her dresses tight
And the Crocodile Rocking was out of sight
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!
Laa, la-la-la-la-laa
La-la-la-la-laa
La-la-la-la-laa |
I read about how youre slow with the truth
Like any old Aesops Fable
But when youre turtlesque, Im a hares breath
Into payment under the table
But some journalist got his mug shot kit
And his briefcase on his lap
But Im tired of being linked with the K.G.B
And all that political crap
Because Ive seen your fascist faces
On the cover of the national papers
Staring out in black and white
From the tall gray walls on the other side
When I see your fascist faces
Then I know Ive had enough
Trying to trace it or erase it
Is it foolproof or a bluff
If the boy had been blessed hed have been arrested
On a charge of wearing red shoes
But if your pants are blue you got nothing to lose
Itll make you a patriot through and through
When I see your fascist faces |

Sad to say our mighty ruler
Is not really in the pink
Hopes could not be minuscular
That hell come back from the brink
Not to beat around the bush
He looks like heading for his box
At the risk of seeming pushy
We must plan for future shocks
According to the hawk of horus
Our most regal invalid
Is not that much longer for us
Build another pyramid
Build it, build it
Another pyramid
Build it, build it
Though all doctors and physicians
Have been summoned to his bed
Itll soon be top morticians
Well be calling for instead
With each wheeze the nations humming
Egypt shakes with every cough
No two ways about whats coming
No discussion, bets are off
Soon our monarch will have filled the tomb
Just like his fathers did
Summon egypts greatest builder
Need another pyramid
Build it, build it
Another pyramid
Build it, build it
We hate to depress the nation
But our leader has been told
He should scrub his next vacation
Even put tonight on hold
This is where his loyal priesthood
Has the chance to do him proud
Holy leaders at the least should
See him happy to his shroud
He must have a vault thats grand by
Any standards for to live
Put five thousand slaves on standby
Build another pyramid |
She packed my bags last night, pre-flight
Zero hour, nine AM
And Im gonna be high
As a kite by then
I miss the earth so much; I miss my wife
Its lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight
And I think its gonna be a long, long time
Until touchdown brings me round again to find
Im not the man they think I am at home, oh no no no
Im a rocket man, rocket man, burning out his fuse up here alone
Mars aint the kind of place to raise your kid
In fact its cold as hell
And theres no one there
To raise them if you did
And all this science I dont understand
Its just my job five days a week
A rocket man
A rocket man
I think its gonna be a long, long time
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! |
Grey London morning
Wet London streets
Rain on the window
Wind in the trees
Its my time to write
Its your time to call
Theres something about distance
That gets to us all
Dark clouds above me
Little people below
All walk with a purpose
With someplace to go
Its my place to paint
My own selfish scene
On this cold lonely canvas
Its just the weather and me
And latitude
Fold back the morning and bring on the night
Theres an alien moon
That hangs between darkness and light
Latitude
Between me and you
Youre a straight line of distance
A cold stretch of black across blue
Latitude
Cracks in the sidewalks
Dogs on the run
An old poster reading
Give us your sons
Window frames capture
Moments in time
But latitude captures
The heart and the mind
And latitude
Fold back the morning and bring on the night
Theres an alien moon
That hangs between darkness and light
Latitude
Between me and you
Youre a straight line of distance
A cold stretch of black across blue
Latitude
And latitude
Fold back the morning and bring on the night
Theres an alien moon
That hangs between darkness and light
Latitude
Between me and you
Youre a straight line of distance
A cold stretch of black across blue
Latitude
Latitude
Latitude
Latitude |
I got to quit this habit
Its like some drug for you
Youve been my sweet sweet addict
Ive been your little white boy blue
Youve got the same obsession
We aint no cat and mouse
You linger on my lips like confession
You laid the traps in this house
And its no use each way we lose
You and me at the crossroads of Blue Avenue
Hit and run hearts collide here
True love passes through
Looks like weve got a wreck babe
Up on Blue Avenue
Two hearts get entangled
Dirty minds they go to town
Everyones got an angle
Little lies get spread around
Let them say what they want
You and me we already knew
Takes more than hocus pocus babe
To save you from Blue Avenue |
I work for the foundry for a penny and a half a day
Like a blind street musician, I never see those who pay
Its dirty work in Birmingham, better deal for a Sheffield man
If he can rivet then his kids can buy
Candy from the candy man
And the van that comes around weekends
Selling fancy city things
Sold by the man with the trilby hat
And the whiskers spread like wings
You can hear him sing
Oh, you can hear him sing
Can I put you on? People, can I put you on?
Tell you that I love you, people
Sing a salesmans song and put you on
And a second cousin works in the pits in Newcastle on Tyne
And he dont care if it rains outside, theres coal dust on his mind
Its dirty work in Manchester but the crew gets paid its gelt
Bang on the bell on Friday
You buys a little something for yourself
And the van that comes around weekends selling fancy city things
Sold by the man in the trilby hat and the whiskers spread like wings
You can hear him sing
Oh, you can hear him sing
Can I put you on? People, can I put you on?
Tell you that I love you, people
Sing a salesmans song and put you on
And the van that comes around weekends selling fancy city things
Sold by the man in the trilby hat and the whiskers spread like wings
You can hear him sing
Oh, you can hear him sing
Can I put you on? People, can I put you on?
Tell you that I love you, people
Sing a salesmans song and put you on |
She looked so easy because she looked so young
With a geisha smile made in Taiwan
She got cherry bombs inside her eyes
And the luck of the Irish on her side
Dont let her tell you that she loves your mind
Shes got her price, she can turn on a dime
Those crocodile tears aint tears of pain
Look a little closer, thats acid rain
And I dont know
Why little frigerator youre so cold
Go little frigerator go
Get away from my soul
Little frigerator youre so cold
Shes calculated with the kiss of death
Got a digital mind and expensive breath
Shes an empty shell, youre a piece of meat
Just another statistic on her readout sheet |
I recall how it used to be
In my younger days
I built a wall all around my heart
To keep the pain away
I built it tall and I built it wide
I left no room for doubt
Your love still found its way inside
And couldnt get back out
Im breaking down the barriers
Making up my mind
Im breaking down the barriers of time
Im taking down the barriers
And loving what I find
Im breaking down the barriers that lie
Between your love and mine
I guess you know you were not the first
You may not be the last
But you have shown me a better way
And now Im learning fast
You got to go where the feeling flows
I take it while its hot
You got to give if you want to get
And I want all you got |
I got feet sticking out of my shoes
I got heat more than I can use
I got love, I got all I need
I got soles that are wearing thin
I got holes where the rain gets in
I got you and thats enough for me
I dont care, I dont care
I dont care, long as I got your love
Clothes that are falling apart
I got a car that refuses to start
I got love, I do the best I can
I got bills piling up in the hall
I got paint peeling off the wall
I got you, Im a happy man |
If youre looking for the glory
You think that you might find
In a bullet-riddled stolen car
On a back road in the pines
If its round just like a medal
On a tired old man of war
Or hidden like that Burma Star
In my dads bottom drawer
Look at you in your monkey suit
Driving south, nothing left to prove
You come back here in your cowboy boots
Dressed to kill in your monkey suit
Every pose you strike, every frame they shoot
Shows you dressed to kill in your monkey suit
Build your ladder to the moon
Beat on that sacred drum
Trample on the hands of those
That cling to every rung
Every seed you crush beneath
Like stone ground in a mill
You never drew a decent breath
But youre just dressed to kill |
She packed my bags last night, pre-flight
Zero hour, nine A.M
And Im gonna be high
As a kite by then
I miss the Earth so much, I miss my wife
Its lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight
And I think its gonna be a long, long time
Til touchdown brings me round again to find
Im not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no no no
Im a rocket man
Rocket man
Burnin out his fuse up here alone
And I think its gonna be a long, long time
Til touchdown brings me round again to find
Im not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
Im a rocket man
Rocket man
Burnin out his fuse up here alone
Mars aint the kind of place to raise your kids
In fact, its cold as hell
And theres no one there to raise them
If you did

And I think its gonna be a long, long time

And I think its gonna be a long, long time
And I think its gonna be a long, long time
And I think its gonna be a long, long time
And I think its gonna be a long, long time |
And when we start we say forever
We say we care, we need, we feel
You read the movement of our eyes
But in our hearts we still believe
The end will come, before we know
The silent rule of love applies
We light the fuse and let it burn out
We just accept that love must die
And so they say The end will come for us
And so the world slows down to let us off
Just hang it up and let it go, accept it if I must
But I dont believe, I dont believe, that the end will come for us
No I wont believe the end will come for us
The end will come like sudden rain
The end is never what it seems
We sink the ship before we sail
We just accept what failure means
And so they say The end will come for us
And so the world slows down to let us off
Just hang it up and let it go, accept it if I must
But I dont believe, I dont believe, that the end will come for us
No I wont believe the end will come for us
And so they say, The end will come for us
And so the world slows down to let us off
Just hang it up and let it go, accept it if I must
But I dont believe, I dont believe, that the end will come for us
Just hang it up and let it go, accept it if I must
But I dont believe, I dont believe, that the end will come for us
No I wont believe the end will come for us |
Its a hot summer night in the blackboard jungle
Crime sits heavy on the city shoulder
Cant get no work, I cant get a job
I just sit and play my radio in the parking lot
Well theyre breaking down doors in foreign countries
Everybody thinks somebodys hiding something
Theres talk on the street and the nation is worried
But you cant talk back when youre dead, when youre dead and
Buried
And Everybodys restless
Everybodys scared
Everybodys looking for something that just aint there
Everybodys restless
Everybodys scared, they think were all in danger
Everyones taking cover from someone elses anger
The walls have ears, Big Brothers watching
They tell us that were poisoned from everything that were
Touching
Well we could be children from the way were acting
We feed ourselves lies and then we scream for action
We just breed and we lose our nerve
And theres bombs going off in every corner of the world |
Your mothers eyes look straight through me
Whenever we meet
Your father swears itll never be
As long as he breaths
And how many times have they told you
That youre too young
How, how Ive ached to hold you
But youre too young
If we dont buy whats right or wrong
Then we are sinners
We were never two to tag along
But we were always winners
And how many people, have told you
That youre too young
And how many jealous hands would love to hold you
Because youre too young
Well youre too young to love me
And Im too old for you
At least thats what they tell us
Its in their book of rules
That youre too young, too young baby youre too young
We could try it for a while
But theyd get us in the long run
They say that youre too young, baby youre too young |
Its getting late havent seen my mates
Ma tell me when the boys get here
Its seven oclock and I wanna mosh
Wanna get my belly full of beer
My old mans drunker than a bar full of whinos
And my old lady she dont care
My sister looks cute in her braces and boots
A handful of grease in her hair
Dont give us none of your aggravation
Weve had it with your discipline
Saturday nights alright for fightin
Get a little action in
Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Gonna set this town alight
Saturday nights the night I like
Saturday nights alright, alright, alright
Well theyre packed pretty tight in here tonight
Im looking for a bitch who will see me right
I may use a little muscle to get what I need
I may sink a little Jack and shout out: shes with me
A couple of 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
Saturdays the night, yeah
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Saturday
Saturday nights alright |
Havent you heard whats new
There is a rumour
Going around that suddenly Ive found you
Better believe its true
I got a feeling
This is for real and nobody else will do
You are my princess
You make me smile
You make my life seem worthwhile
You are my princess
You are the one
You make the sun shine on me
Youre one fine lady
Youre my princess
Youre my princess
Havent you heard them say
I was a prisoner
Buried alive now suddenly Ive been freed
But love is the sweetest way
Oh I was lonely
And now youre the only lover that Ill ever need |
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 but then again no
Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show
Oh 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 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 |
This is the last time
Ill look across this table
And try to face a feeling I dont even recognize
This is a sad hand
That reached across and touched you
When all wed built around us came crashing to the ground
There was a tide turning
Somewhere deep inside us
When all these years together seem lost behind my tears
Oh there were good times
But in between the dog days
I felt the pain of rumour whisper in my ears
But I still tried to love you
I still tried to care
Still tried to hold on with the power of my prayers
But you cant fight the rumour
You cant argue with you heart, no
Once the rumour spreads, once the rumour spreads
Once the rumour spreads, the truth is just a thing of the past
As the rain falls
I listen to the radio
And try to memorize the words to Georgia On My Mind
But were no old song
We never stood the test of time
The lies inside the rumour left trust so far behind
But I still tried to love you
I still tried to care
Still tried to hold on with the power of my prayers
But you cant fight the rumour
You cant argue with you heart, no
Once the rumour spreads, once the rumour spreads
Once the rumour spreads, the truth is just a thing of the past
And when we say goodbye
Be sure to look me in the eye
And know the real secret
Was the thing we didnt have to hide
But I still tried to love you
I still tried to care
Still tried to hold on with the power of my prayers
But you cant fight the rumour
You cant argue with you heart, no
Once the rumour spreads, once the rumour spreads
Once the rumour spreads, the truth is just a thing of the past
Once the rumour spreads, once the rumour spreads
The truth is just a thing of, its just a thing of
The truth is just a thing of the past |
Je nai jamais cru les hyènes essentielles
Elles sont frustres, ignobles et infectes
Mais elles représentent un suprême potentiel
Conjugué à mon puissant intellect
Daccord vos pouvoirs de réflexion
Volent plus bas quun derrière de cochon
Mais bête comme vous êtes, Faites attention !
Rebelles et lion font rébellions
Je vois à vos yeux sans expression
Quil faut que jéclaire vos lanternes
Nous parlons de roi de succession
Vous êtes toutes impliquées dans laffaire !
Soyez prêtes pour la chance de votre vie
Car enfin va venir le grand jour !
Nos ennuis sont finis
Nous sortons de la nuit
Et quest-ce quon doit faire ?
Mécouter et vous taire
Faites-moi confiance votre récompense
Vous laurez quand viendra ce beau jour
Quand la gloire couronnera ma tête
Soyez prêtes !
Ouais soyons prêtes, Nous sommes toutes prêtes ! Pour quoi ?
Pour la mort du roi !
Il est malade ?
Non imbécile nous allons le tuer, Et Simba aussi !
Bonne idée ! On vivra sans roi !
Sans roi, sans roi, la la la la la la !
Idiotes! Il y aura un roi !
Oh eh, mais tavais dit que...
Je serai le roi ! Suivez-moi, Et vous naurez plus jamais faim !
Ouais ! Youpi ! Longue vie au roi !
Les hyènes : Longue vie au roi !
Longue vie au roi !
Quelle joie dêtre bientôt les sujets
De notre nouveau roi adoré
Bien sûr, en revanche, jose espérer
Que vous exécuterez mes ordres
Jassure un futur plein de captures
Puisque je suis roi des chasseurs
Par contre sans moi je vous lassure
Vous mourrez de faim pour la vie !
Soyez prêtes pour le coup le plus génial
Soyez prêtes pour le plus beau scandale
Je dis compromission
Je dis conspiration
Je crie humiliation !
Trois mots qui me feront
Un roi incontesté
Respecté, salué
Le seul dieu vivant qu’on acclame
Votre roi vous invite à la fête
Soyez prêtes !
Notre roi nous invite à la fête
Soyez prêtes ! |
Une nuit je mendors avec lui
Mais je sais quon nous linterdit
Et je sens la fivre qui me mord
Sans que jaie lombre dun remords
Et laurore mapporte le sommeil
Je ne veux pas quarrive le soleil
Quand je prends sa tte entre mes mains
Je vous jure que jai du chagrin
Strands of light upon a bedroom floor
Change the night through an open door
Im awake but this not my home
For the first time Im not alone
Reaching out I touch another skin
Breathing out as he is breathing in
Deep inside I feel my soul aflame
Can my love ever be the same?
Et je me demande
Si cet amour aura un lendemain
Quand je suis loin de lui
Quand je suis loin de lui
Je nai plus vraiment toute ma tte
Et je ne suis plus dici
Oh! Je ne suis plus dici
Je ressens la pluie dune autre plante
I should have told him
Id do anything if I could hold him
For just another day, for just another day
His love is something I will not forget
When I am far away, when I am far away
I feel the rainfall of another planet
Another planet
Quand il me serre tout contre lui
Quand je sens que jentre dans sa vie
Je prie pour que le destin men sorte
Je prie pour que le diable memporte
Et langoisse me montre son visage
Elle me force parler son langage
Mais quand je prends sa tte entre mes mains
Je vous jure que jai du chagrin
Close together in the afterglow
I remember how his loving flow
Turned the key |
Oh Jessie Id like to be
One of those men upon the screen
With an elegant lady and a cafe in Paris
Serving Pernot and Kalua with cream
You can see it I know
All the doors have been closed in my face
And the drinks at the Casbah
Run a mile or more from this place
And oh Jessie wont you look at the planes
Tell me, oh Jessie, is it true what they say
That theres a capital G in the name of the game
And the runways a home for my silver-red plane
And wont you look at the planes
Riding down the skyway
Jessie aint those wings just fine
Dont it make you want to fly someday
Why friend am I so still
Tied to my job with time to kill
Do I still bear the traces of old Don Quixote
Tilting giants on imaginary hills |
Through a mutual agreement, we got that aching feeling
To look up one another one more time
Tracking down the zip codes
Sealing down those envelopes
Lack of communication on the telephone line
But dont judge us by distance
Or the difference between us
Try to look at it with an open mind
For where there is one room, youll always find another
Two rooms at the end of the world
Well weve both ridden the wagon bit the tail off the dragon
Borne our swords like steel knights on the highway
Washing down the dirt roads
Hosing off our dirty clothes
Coming to terms with the times that we couldnt but we tried
Where there is one room, youll always find another
Two rooms at the end of the world
Door to door they would whisper, will they ever get together
Their rooms are different temperatures Im told
Theres a change in their thinking
And their habits seem uneven
But together the two of them were mining gold
But where there is one room, youll always find another
Two rooms at the end of the world
Two rooms at the end of the world |
Take me down to the water
Take me back to the source
Call the meeting to order
And let it run its course
Take me back to my childhood
When I was so alone
Let me feel like a child would
Looking out across the great unknown
Take me down to the ocean
Take me down to the sea
Set the feeling in motion
Forget the tied up time and let my spirit free
Take away the illusion
Of the man, of the king
Help me lose the confusion
So I can breathe again
Take me down to the ocean
Take me down to the sea
Set the feeling in motion
So you can just be you and I can just be me |
And now I know
Spanish harlem arent just
Pretty words to say
I thought I knew
But now I know
That rose trees never grow
In new york city
Until youve seen
This trash can dream come true
Stand at the edge
Have people run you through
I thank the lord
Theres people out there like you
I thank the lord
Theres people out there like you
While mona lisas and mad hatters
Sons of bankers sons of lawyers
Turn around and say
Good morning to the night
For unless they see the sky
But the cant and that is why
They know not if its
Dark outside or light
This broadways got
Got a lot of songs to sing and
If I knew the tunes
I might join in
Ill go my way alone
Grow my own
My own seed shall be sown
In new york city
Subways no way
For this good man to go down
Rich man can ride
And the hobo he can drown
I thank the lord
For the people I have found
I thank the lord
For the people I have found
While mona lisas and mad hatters
Sons of bankers sons of lawyers
Turn around and say
Good morning to the night
For unless they see the sky
But the cant and that is why
They know not if its
Dark outside or light
And now I know
Spanish harlem arent just
Pretty words to say
I thought I knew
But now I know
That rose trees never grow
In new york city
Subways no way
For this good man to go down
Rich man can ride
And the hobo he can drown

For the people I have found

For the people I have found
While mona lisas and mad hatters

Turn around and say
Good morning to the night
For unless they see the sky
But the cant and that is why
They know not if its
Dark outside or light
They know not if its
Dark outside or light |
Your accountant called this morning
There was springtime in his heart
He couldnt wait to tell me
How hed pulled our lives apart
And the letter from your lawyer
Lies unopened on the tray
I may get around to reading it later today
Walking round the lonely rooms
I see everything the same
But suddenly it matters
What was purchased in my name
Whether this or that was paid for
Belongs to me or you
Can the seven years together be divided by two
It says something for the legal boys
But nothing much for us
That all we had together
Is so quickly ended thus
The legal boys have won again
And you and I have lost
They cant tell us how it happened
But theyll let us know the cost
Oh theyll let us know the cost, oh yeah
Theres a lot Id like to tell you
But I cant get past your guards
I do not speak their language
And they hold all the cards
I would rather call you darling
Than defendant in the case
But lovers left here long ago
And clients took their place |
I built a wall in China, I sank an ocean liner
Ive wrecked homes, Ive burned thrones, chasing the crown
Ive put thorns in your feet, I spread plague in the streets
Ive sprung traps, confused maps, chasing the crown
Chasing the crown til he bites the apple
I was licking my lips til the sun come down
Im chasing the crown, crown, Im chasing the crown
Im taking a turn in the right direction
By leaving his soul in the lost and found
Im chasing the crown, Im chasing the crown
I saw the tea float in Boston, I saw the live wire shock em
I made them float, I made them drown, chasing them round
I laid the desert sands, I froze the polar caps
Well, theyd dry out, and Id shout Hey, Im chasing the crown
Chasing the crown til he bites the apple
I was licking my lips when the sun come down
Im chasing the crown, crown, Im chasing the crown
Im taking a turn in the right direction
By leaving his soul in the lost and found
Im chasing the crown, Im chasing the crown
Im chasing the crown til he bites the apple
I was licking my lips til the sun come down
Im chasing the crown, crown, Im chasing the crown
Im taking a turn in the right direction
By leaving his soul in the lost and found
Im chasing the crown, Im chasing the crown
I built a wall in China, I sank an ocean liner
Ive wrecked homes, Ive burned thrones, chasing the crown
Ive put thorns in your feet, I spread plague in the streets
Ive sprung traps, Ive confused maps, chasing the crown
I saw the tea float in Boston, I saw the live wire shock em
Made them float, made them drown, chasing them round
I built a wall, I built a wall in China
Im chasing the crown |
Youre holding back
Youre hard to read
Your a 21st century kind
Youre lighting fast
Built for speed
A tight lipped modern mind
An architect
Of grand romance
Youre a mystery of disguise
Youre holed up in your house
Just waiting for the fire
Youre buttoned down
All sown up
Youre an ontological soul
Cold hard truth
Only proof
What we already know
Youre gonna need a claw hammer
Oh my Lord
To bust on through
And break down your walls
Loosen your lips
Slacken that jaw
Its gonna take a claw hammer
Oh my Lord
Look at us fools
Being used
Were totally dumb, surprised
Waiting for you to share with us
The myth behind the lies
Come on out
Throw us a bone
We want to know your intentions
Are you fake
For goodness sake
Or the Mother of Invention
Youre buttoned down
All sown up
Youre an ontological soul
Cold hard truth
Only proof
What we already know
Youre gonna need a claw hammer
Oh my Lord
To bust on through
And break down your walls
Loosen your lips
Slacken that jaw
Its gonna take a claw hammer
Oh my Lord
Youre gonna need a claw hammer
Oh my Lord
To bust on through
And break down your walls
Loosen your lips
Slacken that jaw
Its gonna take a claw hammer
Oh my Lord
Its gonna take a claw hammer
Oh my Lord
Its gonna take a claw hammer
Oh my Lord |
You had your grand illusion and wrestled with your fate
The winter of your discontent came twenty years too late
If it was love and I was there Ive forgotten where it lives
We both stepped off a frozen rock onto a burning bridge
You came like an invasion all bells and whistles blowing
Reaping the rewards of the fable youd been sowing
I saw you cross the landing and descending marble stairs
Like Caesar crossed the Rubicon you seemed to walk on air
Yea Ive seen your movie
And I read it in your book
The truth just flew off every page
Your songs have all the hooks
Youre seven wonders rolled in one
You shifted gear to cruise
Oh you came to town in headlines
And eight hundred dollar shoes
Oh the bellboys are crying and moneys changing hands
Your cloak and dagger legacys gone home to no mans land
The marquee lights are flickering your posters fading fast
Your being here just melts away like ice cubes in a glass
Oh you came to town in headlines
And eight hundred dollar shoes |
From this day on, I own my fathers gun
We dug his shallow grave beneath the sun
I laid his broken body down, below the southern land
What Id do to bury him where any Yankee stands
Ill take my horse and Ill ride the Northern plain
Wear the color of the greys and join the fight again
I will not rest until I know the cause is fought and won
From this day on until I die, Ill wear my fathers gun
Id like to know where the riverboat sails tonight
To New Orleans, well thats just fine, alright
Cause theres fighting there and the company needs men
Slip us a rope and sail around the bend
As soon as this is over, well go home
Plant the seeds of justice in our bones
Well watch the children growing and see the women sewing
Therell be laughter there when the bells of freedom ring
Id like to know where the riverboat sails tonight
To New Orleans, well thats just fine, alright
Cause theres fighting there and the company needs men
Slip us a rope and sail around the bend
Oh, Id like to know where the riverboat, riverboat sails tonight
Id like to know where the riverboat, riverboat sails tonight
Mmm, Id like to know where the riverboat, riverboat sails tonight
Cause theres fighting there and the company needs men
Slip us a rope and sail around the bend |
Every time you turn around
You wear another face
Every time I look away
I find a hiding place
If you knew me like you knew him
You would know just how I feel
Slipping through someones fingers
Falling under someones wheels
Its easier to walk away
Better off to face the facts
When love holds you up for ransom
Walk away and dont look back
Never seen you looking back through
Smiling eyes and tears
Never knew you holding on to
Memories and fears
Just release me I cant take it
Cant you see a change has come
Strangled by infatuation
Buried under someones thumb
Its easier to walk away
Cover and fade to black
When love scars and leaves you branded
Walk away and dont look back
Every time you turn around
You wear another face
Every time I look away
I find a hiding place |
Shes a honky tonk women
Give me, give me, give me the honky tonk blues
I met a gin soaked, bar-room queen in Memphis
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride
She tried to heave me right across her shoulder
And I just cant seem to drink you off my mind
Shes a honky tonk women
Give me, give me, give me the honky tonk blues
I laid a divorcee here in New York City
I had to put up some kind of a fight
The lady then she covered me in roses
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind
Shes a honky tonk women
Give me, give me, give me the honky tonk blues
Shes a honky tonk women
Give me, give me, give me the honky tonk blues |
Goodbye Norma Jean
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
They crawled out of the woodwork
And they whispered into your brain
They set you on a treadmill
And they made you change your name
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
The candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid
Even when you died
Oh the press still hounded you
All the papers had to say
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
Well I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
The candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
Goodbye Norma Jean
Though I never knew you at all
Goodbye Norma Jean
From the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something as more than sexual
More than just Marilyn Monroe
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
Well I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
The candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
Goodbye Norma Jean
Goodbye Norma Jean
Goodbye
Goodbye Norma Jean |
Its closing time the boys are all together at the bar
Staring in their glasses
Looks like another layoff at the yard
Yesterday I heard union hall come down
They hit it with a wrecking ball
And they try but nothing changes in this town
Cap in hand stood in line
Your family ties are the chains that bind
The endless wheel goes round and round
Chances are youll never leave this town
Oh oh no
Like a river now the empty streets are flooded out with rain
Its falling on the playground
While the kids get wet playing the same old games
Locked away so many things remind them of war
They tap the pavement with their canes
The good old days aint so good no more |
Say goodbye to loneliness
Say goodbye to Marlon Brando
Say goodbye to latitudes
And the confusion that surrounds you
Say goodbye to misery
Say goodbye to the morning news
Say goodbye to prime time
And the fools that choose to view
Say goodbye to Wendy
Say goodbye to Rhonda
Say goodbye to the Beach Boys
From the Palisades to Kona
Say goodbye to Glasnost
Say goodbye to Malathion
Say goodbye to the clowns in congress
And the belt around Orion
Say goodbye to the tabloids
Say goodbye to diet soda
Say goodbye to new age music
From the Capa to the Coda
Say goodbye to gridlock
Goodbye to Dollys chest
Goodbye to the ozone layer
If theres any of it left
Dont it make you wanna crawl back to the womb
Find a sanitarium rent yourself a room
This overload is edging me further out to sea
I need to put some distance between overkill and me
Me!
Say goodbye to Jackie
Collins, say goodbye to illiterate fools
Goodbye to evangelists and
Geeks with power tools
Goodbye to statuettes
Say goodbye to lists
Say goodbye to articles on
Who the senator kissed
Say goodbye to hair styles
Goodbye to heavens gate
Goodbye to Rocky Five
Six, Seven and Eight
Dont it make you wanna crawl back to the womb
Find a sanitarium rent yourself a room
This overload is edging me further out to sea
I need to put some distance between overkill and me
Me, yeah!
Dont it wanna make you crawl back to the womb
Find a sanitarium rent yourself a room
This overload is edging me further out to sea
I need to put some distance between overkill and me
Overkill and me |
Som konge blir jeg mægtig stærk
Og fjenderne de får
Hvornår er dyrekonger set
Med sårn en smule hår?
Som konge blir jeg verdenskendt
Den største vi har haft
Jeg øver mig i fornem gang
Og i et brøl med kraft
Haha, det lyder som en... gammel klarinet
Jeg blir meget snart majestæt
Du har meget at lære endnu, unge herre, hvis du tror, at–
Ingen siger: Gør det
Ingen siger: Bli her
Ingen siger: Stop det
Ingen siger: Se her
Frihed hele dagen lang
Jeg bestemmer slagets gang
Jeg tror, at du og jeg bør ta
En snak om slid og slæb
Tror du, en konge modtar
Gode råd fra fugles næb?
Hvis kongehuset går den vej
Tror jeg, jeg bakker ud
Ud af jobbet, ud af Afrika
Jeg får et sammenbrud
Den knægt er mere vild, end han er let. Simba!
Jeg blir meget snart majestæt
Alle ser til venstre
Alle ser til højre
Jeg er ham i centrum
Ikke til at tjøre
Lad alle dyrene møde festpåklædt
Og danse rundt i ring med høje spjæt
Og synge højt om Simbas stolte æt
Jeg blir meget snart majestæt
Han blir meget snart majestæt
Jeg blir meget snart
Majestæt |
Your hot coffee and my black tea
I dont know about that
Oh guess we choose to disagree
But I like your pork pie hat
Well your sister always came between us
Claiming she was best
But she hitched a ride to a diplomat
She moved to Bucharest
While we just sat around an round
Like a dolpha in a bed
I cant say I ever liked you much
But youre my kind of hell
Oh cant say I ever liked you much
But youre my kind of hell
Battle ins field and New York streets
Were watching from a bridge
But what the theif an you said made no sense
To even stole them anyway
Oh a living cheap in an old hotel
Eating rice and beans
Stayin up late takin a bottle each
With a couple of Times Square queens
We just turned the heat up
On the stories we could tell
Now Im sunbathing in the sun
Was always on my mind
But you tanned from the inside out
Drinking coco butter wine
While you sold your past life
Baptist fire was miaking plans to leave
But you trapped me that ball his bell?
On another new years eve
So I give it up for what its worth
Crawling to your shell |
Les grands orages, de venir a moi
Jai la dans mes poings, la force de vivre
Et le filet du temps, nest que lombre qui passe
Et voila le present que je regarde en face
Jai en moi la vie, jai en moi le feu
Jai en moi la tempete de celui qui veut
Jai en moi la vie, jai en moi le feu
Jai en moi la tempete, si je sais quon est deux
Je suis leau qui dort, et le roseau qui plie
Jai le calme tranquille de la douceur des nuits
Jai la patience immence et le fil du passé
Et jai les mains tendues pour prendre et pour donner |
Im not out of danger
Where ever you may hide
Theres still tears to be overcome
Wild dreams to ride
At night the sky is burning
And staring through the pains
I see all the past the future lies
Writing your name
On the roses
In the garden of love
First thing in the morning and last thing at night
All is reborn into dark into light
First thing in the morning I look through the sights
I aim to be there, be there
Out of sight but not out of vision
I know what I can see
Maybe
Shadows all are falling on me
Keep on running to me
On the roses
In the garden of love
First thing in the morning and last thing at night
All is reborn into dark into light
First thing in the morning I look through the sights
I aim to be there
First thing in the morning and last thing at night
All is reborn into dark into light
First thing in the morning I look through the sights
I aim to be there, be there, be there
First thing in the morning and last thing at night
All is reborn into dark into light
What else can I do but to look through the sights
I aim to be there, to be there
I aim to be there, there
First thing in the morning and last thing at night
All is reborn into dark into light
First thing in the morning I look through the sights
I aim to be there
First thing in the morning and last thing at night
Last thing at night
First thing in the morning I look through the sights
First thing |
My high-flying, high-flying bird
My high-flying, high-flying bird
My high-flying bird
Has flown from out my arms
I thought myself her keeper
She thought I meant her harm
My high-flying, high-flying bird
My high-flying, high-flying bird
Sober in the morning light
Things look so much different
To how they looked last night
As whispers circulate all day
Their back-stage baby princess passed away
The white walls of your dressing-room are stained in scarlet red
You bled upon the cold stone like a young man
In the foreign field of death
My high-flying bird
Has flown from out my arms
I thought myself her keeper
She thought I meant her harm
She thought I was the archer
A weather-man of words
My high-flying bird
Has flown from out my arms
I thought myself her keeper
She thought I meant her harm
She thought I was the archer
A weather-man of words
But I could never shoot down
My high-flying bird
My high-flying, high-flying bird
My high-flying, high-flying bird
My high-flying, high-flying bird
My high-flying, high-flying bird
The white walls of your dressing-room are stained in scarlet red
You bled upon the cold stone like a young man
In the foreign field of death |
It used to be a sweet sensation
No price too high for love
Now I pay for this bitter taste
And the price is not enough
Such cruel sport for your kicks
Such hard knocks on my heart
How long before the pain ends
Tell me where living starts
And lovers leap off burning buildings
Waking up on a sky high wire
Desperation leaves us clinging
On the edge of a house on fire
Lovers leap off burning buildings
Live our life on borrowed time
Every flame that ever moved you
Touched your lips but never mine
Lovers leap off burning buildings
No room for conversation
Cold stares and angry words
Fall in pieces from our faces
We read do not disturb
Some lovers just go hungry
Others beg for just a bite
You use me under pressure
To whet your appetite |
I remember it like it was yesterday
Snow in the park and skaters on the ice
Long black cars standing side-by-side
Loading up the boys at night
Turned up our collars to the chill of the wind
Caught an innocent smile from a taxi at the lights
Not something youd see on a New York street
Its such an uncommon sight
But I wouldnt have it any other way
This citys got a thing about it, dont try to understand it
New York city Id really like to stay
New York city I wouldnt have you
I wouldnt have you any other way
Oh the subway rumbled underneath
Italian lights where joey gallo died
And the man on the door down at 54s
Letting only the pretty inside
Id wake with a stranger under the covers
Late in the day and longing for the night
Just like the snowfall theres so many bodies
But somehow it feels so right
And I can feel the magic
And read a million lips
And no matter what might happen
Theyll never sink this ship |
Good morning world, its a brand new day
Im packing my bags and Im going away
Im moving my legs and my city tired bones
I got to get away from the busy mans phones
Got to make a move where the living is wild and free
If you want to get happy, then people, come along with me
A fee, fa, fou, fa, fa, fa, fa, fouu
Run along boy, set a place for me
Im getting so tired of the company
Im getting looks from the big white man
I got to get away just as fast as I can
Good morning freedom, got to break away
Got to break away, got to break away
Good morning freedom, its another day
Its another day, its another day
Good morning freedom
A fee, fa, fou, fa, fa, fa, fa, fouu
is the same old game
A city tired living is the game to play
Loving thy neighbor is the real life thing
Theres only one way to get the people to sing |
Without you I no longer swim upstream
Where are you when I try to fill the spaces in between
The red letter days and all the pain
And while I remain shipwrecked everything has changed
And I fall apart
With this threat of indecision
Hanging in my heart
This house can get so lonely
When the day grows dark
And it seems to be the night time
When I fall apart
Cant you tell the shadows no longer comfort me
I dont feel the need to cling to anyone I see
This fools suffered gladly each and every day
I dont wish to reconsider, I wish theyd stay away
Ive no care to count the stares that pity me
Ill wash your hurt away just you wait and see
For every rose you give her Ill give her three
But in the meantime Ill just wish that she was me |
At seventeen, she became the queen of Orleans
A peasant child guided by a vivid dream
She was cool before they knew what cool became
She cut her hair and cross-dressed in a dangerous age
She set a trend, a natural look was all the rage
Imagine if theyd had merchandise and poster sales
This bride of God, bigger than Elvis in her day
She had it all until they burned it all away
She swung a sword
She rode a horse
She wore her armor for the Lord
But did she cry by candlelight?
Was she lonely after dark?
Did she pray for something more?
Did anybody sleep with Joan Of Arc?
She was small and more or less of common breed
But saint aside, no stranger to a womans needs
No handsome knights, no random acts of chivalry
Her bed remained a simple place for her to sleep
She swung a sword
She rode a horse
She wore her armor for the Lord
But did she cry by candlelight?
Was she lonely after dark?
Did she pray for something more?
Did anybody sleep with Joan Of Arc?
They burned her down for her belief
They burned her down for her faith
They gave her up into the flames
Proclaiming shed seen heavens face
She swung a sword
She rode a horse
She wore her armor for the Lord
But did she cry by candlelight?
Was she lonely after dark?
Did she pray for something more?
Did anybody sleep with Joan Of Arc?
They burned her down for her belief
They burned her down for her faith
They gave her up into the flames
Proclaiming shed seen heavens face
Did anybody sleep with Joan of Arc?
They burned her down for her belief
They burned her down for her faith
They gave her up into the flames
Proclaiming shed seen heavens face
Did anybody sleep with Joan of Arc? |
Abide with me, fast forth the eventide
The darkness deepens, Lord abide with me
When other helpers fail and comforts flee
Help of the helpless, O abide with me
I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless
Ills have no weight and tears no bitterness
Where is deaths sting, where, grave, that victory
I triumph still, if Thou abide with me
Hold Thou, thy cross, before my closen eyes
Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies
Heavens, morning breaks, and earths, vain shadows flee
In life, in death, O Lord abide with me
In life, in death, O Lord abide with me |
Suzie walks her dog but it dont solve
All the mysteries
Hanging with the guys, making with the guys
Playing hard to please
Back in 63, she was made for me
We were having fun
Wasnt long before I could not ignore
Shes about hanging out
Campus queen dreams shattered years ago
And Im the one who knows
Its the same country love song
Different words, a different melody
Its the same country love song
Mama said to me, John you got to be
Honest to yourself
Keeping up the pace, losing in the race
Further on the shelf
I want to write a country love song, tell them nothings wrong
Suzie did my heart
There is nothing more, something said before
Cest la vie, mon cherie
Lady Luck, me and sexy so-and-so
And Im the one who knows |
I cant light no more of your darkness
All my pictures seem to fade to black and white
Im growing tired and time stands still before me
Frozen here on the ladder of my life
Too late to save myself from falling
I took a chance and changed your way of life
But you misread my meaning when I met you
Closed the door and left me blinded by the light
Dont let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself, its always someone else I see
Id just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
I cant find the right romantic line
But see me once and see the way I feel
Dont discard me just because you think I mean you harm
But these cuts I have they need love to help them heal |
Loving you was easy
Your love captured my heart
You were always pleasing
Till you tore us apart
Said you needed both of us
How could you be so unkind
Then you traded love for lust
But sooner or later Im gonna get you
Look out girl cause Im gonna fix you
Im gonna shake it up
This time Im gonna break it up
There wont be any making up
Im shaking this three-way love affair
Im gonna shake it up
This time Im gonna break it up
There wont be any making up
Im shaking this three-way love affair
Sneaking out on Sunday
You thought I didnt know
Well early morning Monday
Once more you didnt show
Alibis and selfish lies
Oh Ive had my fill of them all
You can dry your crying eyes
I know youre faking, theres no mistaking
Look out girl your heart might be breaking |
Do you want to drive to ride mount on your pony
Loosen up my tie to help me breathe
Insisting that I pay my alimony
Each and every day is the same old scene
Come on do the roll, do the roll with me
Come on do the roll, do the roll with me
I said honey, I said honey
I said honey, I said honey
Come on do the honey roll with me
Well I want to say that Im your mister funky
Singing this song is taking up your time
I did the donkey now Im your funky monkey
Sing it children, sing it on your mind |
E.John:
Were no handy silver lining
Were no crime to make the headline news
If its a matter for decision
You and I can be the ones to choose

Im not the same as I used to be
All the things youve heard seem hard to believe
Havent always been good, never really been bad
Most times Ive been happy, yea sometimes Ive been sad
Sure Ive made mistakes, havent we all
Ive been loose as a cannon and dumb as a wall
Havent always been sober in counting my ducks
And if I look back now Ive had my share of luck
But the change didnt come over night
Ive been searching for you all my life
All the habits that I couldnt handle
Ive swept them under the rug
In exchange for the sweetest addiction
You, my elusive drug
Im going to stay now, I really like it here
I may paint your picture, and i might grow a beard
There were times i was crazy couldnt handle my life
Dont think youd have liked me not at any old price
And Ive taken the pills
I got burnt out and chilled by the cold
But Ive no regrets and that being said
You know cheap thrills can get pretty old
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah
In exchange for the sweetest addiction
You, my elusive drug |
Ive got a strong-willed someone to love me
Here off a highway in the way
Dont need to shout it
Were living here quietly
Away from the folks
Who just sleep all day
I lived the fast life, taking some chances
On my high horse everyone rode
All around were too many monkeys
Asleep at the wheel
And running the show
But Im free now, free and easy
Freedoms a breeze
Freedoms a time
Rolling over and over
And I want to be where you are tonight
Where you are tonight
All my sweet sins stayed in the city
I caved in and wandered into your heart
When least expected out of the heavens
The moonlight descended into the dark
But Im free now, free and easy
Freedoms a breeze
Freedoms a time
Rolling over and over
And I want to be where you are tonight
Where you are tonight
Was your to watch
In no heaven
Set back the clock you gave me
Your time
Im living better now Im free and easy
Freedom past Ive left here high
Well Im free now, free and easy
Freedoms a breeze
Freedoms a time
Rolling over and over
And I want to be where you are tonight
Where you are tonight
Im free now, free and easy
Freedoms a breeze
Freedoms a time
Rolling over and over
And I want to be where you are tonight
Where you are tonight
Where you are tonight |
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Now I believe in looking
Like my time on earth is cooking
Whether polka dotted, striped or even checked
With some glamour guaranteeing
Every fibre of my being
Is displayed to quite remarkable effect
From your cradle via trousseau
To your death bed youre on view, so
Never compromise, accept no substitute
I would rather wear a barrel
Than conservative apparel
Because dress has always been my strongest suit
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Staying in or hitting townwards
From the top and working downwards
I ensure that every stitch is stitched in time
Whether wig or hat or turban
Whether clad boudoir or urban
Not to strut your stuff outrageouslys a crime
And the few who are invited
To my wardrobe are delighted
As they wander through my things to find en route
That in negligee or formal
I am anything but normal
Because dress has always been my strongest suit
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere
Now you dont need a recital
Of the reasons why its vital
That tonight my trappings will not be subdued
That from coronet to sandal
No one else is worth a candle
That I couldnt make more impact in the nude
So bring me all my finest
Most audacious, mi divine-ist
Most revealing, most expensive and taboo
Most arresting, most heart-stopping
Most free flowing, most eye popping
Because dress has always been my strongest suit
Overwear, underwear, anytime, anywhere |
Mufasa har aldrig ville gi jagten fri på Kongesletten
Når jeg blir konge vil mit folk frit ku ta for sig af retterne. For en hyænes mave blir aldrig fuld
Mufasa er for stærk til at vi ka udfordre ham
Mufasa er gårsdagens leder, helt udslidt, hans tid er forbi
Hans svigt var at helt nye tider
En ny drøm I kan se jer selv i
Se løvernes liv er i opbrud
Hyæner, hør godt efter her
Alt ændres når jeg indtar scenen
Der osse en rolle til jer
Så gør jer klar til århundredes magtkamp
Gør jer rede til højforræderi
Usynlige lænker
De snedigste rænker
Jeg planlæg fra bunden
Deri ligger grunden
Til at jeg griber magten
Får æren og agten
Og endelig får vist mit geni
Der bid i de planer jeg har
Gør jer klar
Gør jer klar
Gør jer klar
Gør jer klar!
Gør jer klar!
Der er bid i de planer jeg har
Gør jer klar |
When I die and they lay me to rest

When they lay me down to die
Goin on up to the Spirit in the sky

Thats where Im gonna go when I die

Prepare yourself, you know its a must

Its gonna set me up with the Spirit in the sky
Oh set me up with the spirit in the sky
Thats where Im gonna go when I die
When I die and they lay me to rest
Gonna go to the place thats the best
Im Gonna go to the place thats the best |
I used to be a rolling stone
You know if the cause was right
Id leave to find the answer on the road
I used to be a heart beating for someone
But the times have changed
The less I say the more my work gets done
Cause I live and breathe this Philadelphia freedom
From the day that I was born Ive waved the flag
Philadelphia freedom took me knee-high to a man
Yeah gave me peace of mind my daddy alway had
Philadelphia freedom shine on me
Cause I love you
Shine a light through the eyes of the ones left behind
Shine a light, shine a light
Shine a light, shine a light
Philadelphia freedom, I love love you, yes I do
If you choose to you can live your life alone
Some people choose the city
Some others choose the good old family home
I like living easy without family ties
Till the whippoorwill of freedom
Zapped me right between the eyes
Cause I live and breathe this Philadelphia freedom
From the day that I was born Ive waved the flag
Philadelphia freedom took me knee-high to a man
Yeah gave me peace of mind my daddy alway had
Philadelphia freedom shine on me
Cause I love you
Shine a light through the eyes of the ones left behind
Shine a light, shine a light
Shine a light, shine a light
Philadelphia freedom, come on, I love love, yes I do
Come on, come on
I love love love you
Philadelphia freedom
Love love love
Yes, I do
Love love love
Philadelphia freedom
Yes, I do
Love love love
Philly, I love you |
Im no longer counting Im not keeping score
I could say my list of lovers doesnt matter anymore
But some are always in my heart
And some Im not so sure
Either way they all left their mark
And for some I found a cure
From one you learn something
Another you learn, nothing
And theres one who might teach you everything
But before I learned to listen
And if indeed someone said it
Then I guess i must have lost it on the wind
Back when I was younger each one was a prize
Love just came along and hit you right between the eyes
And one was just a trophy catch
And one was like a curse
Some would want to bleed you dry
Some might quench your thirst
In cold water I went fishing in warm seas I cast a line
And swore the heart I was reeling in was perfect at the time
You couldnt tell me I was wrong, you couldnt tell me anything
And if you did then I guess I must have lost it on the wind |
Theres another one due in three months time
Shell have to paint the spare room blue
Shell work a little overtime
And hope it all works out for Frank and her
If she can keep him home nights
Away from those factory girls
And the gas bills come and the money burns
And Frank just keeps complaining
How little they both earn
And mother drops by Mondays
Just to nag about the world
Then she stays to nag at Dallas
Because she hates those Texas girls
Poor cow
Youll get your dumb man
Youll see your whole life coming at you
In the back of his hand
Poor cow
Its a monkey see town
Youll walk down the aisle
In the hand me down gown
Of some poor cow
Oh them rich bitch girls
Aint like our lass
Got no spine for labour
Like us working class
Us gamey lot
Still got our pride
We got our health
Its just the truth thats died |
Never thought Id miss you
When you said goodbye
Never thought Id see the day
That I break down and cry
Wont you come on back to me
Back where you belong
Cause I get a little bit lonely baby
Lonely and blue missing you
I get a little bit lonely baby
If you ever come back, gonna be true
Oh I know I hurt you
Couldnt you forgive
For I know without you
Its impossible to live
I want you back in my arms again
Back where you belong
Come on baby
Lets forgive and forget
And even though things are bad
Im gonna get you yet |
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Dont come on so cocksure boy, you cant escape your genes
No point in feeling purer boy, your background intervenes
Listen good and listen straight, youre not the master of your fate
To this you must be reconciled, youll always be your fathers child
At times acclaimed, at times reviled
You wind up doing just what Ive done
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Dont assume your vices get handed down the line
That a parents blood suffices to condemn the childs design
Ive done wrong, I cant deny, but at least I know that I
Shouldnt blame that on my stock, this may come as quite a shock
But Im no chip off any block, I wouldnt wish those words on anyone
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Son, youre nervous, take my hand
All is settled, all is planned
Youve got the world at your command
I dont think you understand
Just have the slave if you must, and be done with her
Dont ever speak of her like that again
I appreciate too well, the squalor at which you excel
It isnt very hard to tell, evils a distinctive smell
From this day on I choose my own way
If I choose to be with Aida, then I will be
And no one, not you, not even the gods can stop me
Hes lost all sense of reason, and why some foreign slut
Not only is that treason, some doors are slamming shut
Just like me, hes found that flesh can excite but will it mesh
Watch me rid him of this blight, once the harlots out of sight
Then I think he will see the light
He wont walk back to daddy, he will run
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Like father, like son |
— Só um instante. Me diga uma coisa, Billy, como você se sente quando está dançando?
Não sei dizer direito
Não dá pra explicar
Eu não tenho como controlar
Eu me perco de mim mesmo, não sei mais quem sou
E ao mesmo tempo acho o meu lugar
É como se eu ouvisse música no ar
Ela toca e me toca
E não estou mais lá
E tudo muda em mim
Uma espécie de explosão
Toma conta do meu corpo
Não sinto mais o chão
Eu abro as minhas asas
Leve como o ar
Me sinto elétrico, tão elétrico
Tenho a sensação
De poder voar
É igual estar com raiva
Ou com medo de tentar
É uma confusão de enlouquecer
O peito apertado e cansado de chorar
Que nome isso tem? Não sei dizer
É como se eu ouvisse música no ar
E parece que essa música
Não para de tocar
E ela então me invade
Uma espécie de explosão
Toma conta do meu corpo
Não sinto mais o chão
Eu abro as minhas asas
Leve como o ar
Me sinto elétrico, tão elétrico
Tenho a sensação
De poder voar
Sou elétrico
Tenho a sensação
De poder voar
Vou... voar |
